Chapter 204: Entering the Ancient Tomb
"Do you feel the ground shivering?" As soon as the group entered the stone gate, Hu Fei keenly noticed that there seemed to be something strange under his feet.
"Is there one?" When Yu Feng heard this, he deliberately stomped his feet hard, and he didn't feel anything special.
Everyone else also shook their heads, only Xia Yanru's face looked a little serious, she didn't notice that the ground was trembling, but through the spatial ability, she noticed that the spatial structure here was much more complex than that shown on the ciphertext map, and there was a very narrow space of activity between many passages, which was very abnormal.
"Strange, although this place looks spacious, it doesn't seem to be a hall or a side hall, it seems to be just a corridor." Zhang He didn't feel anything unusual about the ground, compared to the ground, he felt that the space in front of him was very weird.
Normally, there must be a temple structure behind the jack gate, but the position they are in at the moment, said to be a palace, is more like a very wide corridor, and there seems to be no end to the left and right sides.
"It seems that this entrance we are walking through should not be the main entrance of the dungeon." Tang Yulou looked around at the surrounding environment and said, there are lampstands burning on both sides, obviously either someone has been here before, or it is some special mechanism setting, once someone comes in, the lampstand will automatically ignite.
"There is more than one entrance to this dungeon, and the one we take is the fastest and most convenient." Tu Hongxing explained that they had a map in their hands, although it was not a complete design of the ancient tomb, but the general structure could be seen.
"Let's go, whether it's the main entrance or not, we're not already in by now. Besides, we're here to find people, not to study the ancient cemetery. Yu Feng's attitude is not very good, but it is also true.
"yes, let's go first." Hu Fei doesn't care about those, Yu Feng's words are right in the heart, they are here to carry out tasks, and finding talents is the right topic.
Xia Yanru didn't want to worry about which entrance was the main entrance, so she decisively chose the direction on the right and walked forward, and the others also followed when they saw this.
I don't know how long I walked like this, everyone felt that their legs were sore, but they still didn't see other exits, not to mention, and the surrounding environment seemed to be unchanged, which couldn't help but make a few knowledgeable people wonder if they had fallen into a fantasy again.
"It's not repeated, it's real." Xia Yanru frowned, and said a word to break everyone's suspicions, but this truth made everyone worried.
"It's not right, we can't see other entrances if we keep going, could it be that we chose the wrong direction?" Zhang Hechao glanced at Xia Yanru vaguely and said.
"Then turn back, we've made marks all the way over, just go back according to the markers." Yu Feng didn't realize the deep meaning of Zhang He's words, he only felt that if the direction was wrong, then go back and go.
"Take a ten-minute break and come back." Xia Yanru also felt that she couldn't go on like this, so she still had to look back and take a look, but fortunately, she made marks all the way, so that she could also pay attention to whether those marks had changed on the return trip.
It's just that as they returned all the way, the more they walked, the more bad they felt in their hearts, especially when they finally walked back to the starting point, everyone was confused.
"Where's the stone gate?" If it weren't for the markers, Yu Feng would have wondered if they had made a mistake.
"The stone gate is gone, and this mark is the first one we painted." Tu Hongxing also felt a little unbelievable, obviously they had come in through the stone gate before, but the stone gate that should have been here had become a wall.
"Why did Shimen suddenly disappear, could it be a mechanism?" Hu Fei doesn't know too much, but the mark will not be faked.
"Give me the drawings." Xia Yanru frowned and said to Tu Hongxing.
Tu Hongxing hurriedly took out the drawings and handed them over, thinking that maybe he could find something through the drawings.
"It's true, it's just that the places we marked are on the lampstand, and the walls are constantly moving." Xia Yanru read the drawings, combined with the guesses in her heart, and roughly judged the current situation.
"You mean to say that the walls have been moving, so we're back to the starting point now, but the stone gate has been removed?" Although Tang Yulou felt that this speculation was a bit surprising, but apart from this explanation, he really couldn't explain why Shimen suddenly disappeared.
"The overall structure of the dungeon is circular, and these walls have been circulating, and we haven't gone wrong before, but we can't find the next exit, and we will keep circulating in this passage." Xia Yanru handed the drawings to Tang Yulou, she didn't plan to hide her secrets, many people helped analyze it, and they would be safer in the ancient tomb.
Tang Yulou didn't refuse, he had heard that Xia Yanru and they had a map before, but he had never been embarrassed to ask for it, and now that the other party was so active, he naturally wouldn't refuse.
After studying it carefully for a while, Tang Yulou passed the drawings to Zhang He again, and then continued Xia Yanru's words just now, "This underground palace is indeed not simple, it should not only be the outer wall rotating, I am afraid there is also an inner wall, which is also constantly rotating." ”
"Yes, this dungeon should be using living water to drive the mechanism, and we must find the law of rotation to find the exit." Zhang He also finished reading the drawings, his expression was a little not good-looking, this was the first time he had encountered this kind of specification, which really made him breathtaking.
"Look for the exit from the interior wall." Xia Yanru suddenly said aloud.
"Let's go, let's go to the left this time?" Yu Feng asked in his heart.
"Go to the right." Xia Yanru shook her head, she had already determined that the inner and outer walls on both sides were moving, so it didn't make much difference whether she chose to go left or right, and the most important thing now was to find the right rule.
"It's okay, it's actually the same either way." Tang Yulou didn't have any opinions, and in this case, he didn't have any better advice to offer.
The others have no opinion, although they are already a little tired, but the most important thing at the moment is to find the exit, otherwise they can only wait for the stone gate to turn back, but they don't know how the outer wall turns, in case they can't wait for the stone gate, they can only wait for death.
This time, the two experienced ones who took the lead were replaced by Zhang He and Tang Yulou, Xia Yanru followed the two of them to be responsible for the force, and the speed of the group did not decrease, this time they chose to mark the inner wall, but also to see if they could find out the trajectory of the wall's movement.
After walking like this for more than two hours, everyone was really a little weak, Xia Yanru also felt a little sore, and decisively ordered to rest in place, if they continued like this, it is estimated that these people will be tired.
Tang Yulou looked at the watch on his wrist, and suggested to Xia Yanru if he could rest for a while first, originally they had been in the water overnight, but it was already very late at this time, and they couldn't stay awake in this underground palace, people always needed proper sleep to replenish their physical strength.
"Okay." Xia Yanru nodded, "4 hours." ”
"Enough, it's better to sleep for a while than not to sleep at all." Tang Yulou didn't object, it's good to be able to sleep for 4 hours, Xia Yanru's arrangement is still very humane.
In this way, everyone rested directly in the same place, fortunately, in this corridor except for the end, there is no other danger for the time being, they also arranged to take turns to be on duty at night, in a group of two, each group is responsible for 1 hour, Zhang He and Tang Yulou were not arranged to work at night because their maximum force value was not enough.
