Chapter 85: Touch the String Mechanism

The kind of black hair is miserable, which makes people feel very uncomfortable, it is not simply black, as if a lot of gray insects have been slapped flat and stuck to the horse's body.

Although it is smooth under the reflection of the fire fold, it feels as if there are many black and gray bumps like needle eyes tightly squeezed together.

Zhang Haike thought that it might be a kind of lacquerware, which was corroded by something and became like this.

It is likely that the inside of the lacquerware was hollow, woven with dried fibers treated with vine radish, and then lacquered on it, so that the outer layer was only a copper shell.

The crowd unanimously decided to take a look at it, and they thought that the only thing special in the tomb was probably part of the local authority.

"Don't use your legs, take a tightrope and have a look." Zhang Haike reminded.

The so-called steel cable is actually a steel wire with the thickness of a mung bean, which everyone has, and the Zhang family will only use it when they are children, because the steel wire cannot bear the weight of adults.

Several people connected the steel wires and pulled them into one, went around the copper horse to both sides, and pulled the steel wire to let it pass through the air above the horse, so that people could climb on the steel cable to observe the copper horse, so as not to touch the ground around the copper horse, so as not to touch the mechanism by mistake.

Then a few people looked at the little brother, because the steel wire itself is elastic, plus the torque, the people who pull the steel wire on both sides need great strength, so the person walking on the steel wire must weigh less.

The little brother was the skinniest and lightest of all the people present, he understood it and was about to jump forward, but was stopped by Zhang Haike.

"Come on, he's too young, and if he misses, we'll all suffer." Zhang Haike said to the others.

The children of the Zhang family are two or three years apart, and the courage, experience, and temperament in the middle are almost very different, and the thirteen and fifteen-year-olds are completely different concepts.

Everyone had no objections, Zhang Haike tied up his sleeves and trousers, and said to the little brother: "You go to the ground first, and then come down when it's okay." ”

The little brother just looked at the bronze horse and didn't move.

Zhang Haike said it again, and the little brother spoke slowly, "I know you won't listen to what I say, but I know that you are more than lucky this time, you can leave a token for me, if something happens to you, I can take them back and hand them over to your parents." ”

Zhang Haike frowned, and the others also looked at the little brother with some dissatisfaction.

Although the Zhang family has a training that doesn't care about these, because the so-called crow's beak touches the moldy head, it is easy for people to avoid it, so they hide some very important feelings in their stomachs and don't say it.

But saying this at such a serious time, especially the words that come out of the mouth of an immature child, whether true or not, still makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

"Why?" He asked.

Seeing that they all wanted to listen, the little brother no longer concealed it, "Because we have no clue, we have been using the reasonable methods of solving problems that we have learned before, but we don't understand everything here, even if we know that no matter how much knowledge we have, it is not applicable to this place, and we will inevitably enter a very terrible misunderstanding." ”

Zhang Haike looked at the bronze horse again, glanced at the other children, and suddenly a bad feeling rose in his heart, and he hurriedly asked, "What misunderstanding?" ”

"What we've learned, it's useless for this tomb." The little brother said, "In other words, we are here now, just like ordinary people." ”

The little brother's words shocked everyone, and they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on their backs.

Although they had been trying to use what they had learned to set up this tomb since they entered here, it was all about pulling this tomb back to a level they could control.

But the fact is that the explanations of the so-called Feng Shui Bureau, the reversal of the mechanism and the like have always been far-fetched, and all the inferences are their own speculations.

Faced with an ancient tomb that you don't know anything about, the best solution at the moment is to stop the loss in time and leave here immediately.

But can they give up?

Obviously no, the arrow is ready to fly, and at this point, they absolutely do not have the courage to give up.

They are all young and vigorous half-grown children, they don't know what it means to break their wrists, they have worked hard for so long, and they see that they are about to kick the door, and they want to give up so gloomily, how can they have the face to look up in front of the clansmen after they go back.

A child didn't know whether it was to strengthen his courage or to show disdain, and he laughed twice.

Zhang Haike thought for two seconds, and finally sighed, "Born in the Zhang family, I don't care about this, you can go up quickly." ”

Hearing this, the little brother didn't say anything more, turned around and went up the wall, and climbed out of the hole.

Seeing his figure disappear at the entrance of the cave, the kid who laughed twice in front of him snorted, "The little ghost is just ignorant." ”

Zhang Haike didn't answer his words, just waved his hand to signal the children on both sides of the steel cable to get ready, and said softly: "Let's go!" ”

After saying that, he bent down and jumped up, stepped on the shoulders of the remaining children, and climbed the tightrope.

The steel cable sinks down suddenly, the children on both sides grit their teeth and pull hard, Zhang Haike hangs upside down below, seizes the time to climb above the copper horse with his hands and feet, and then hooks the steel cable with his legs staggered, releases his hand, and controls his upper body carefully with his waist and abdomen, and his head is attached to the edge of the copper horse.

Zhang Haike leaned his neck, let his face parallel to the copper horse, adjusted his movements, and then touched his waist with his backhand, and took out a bottle of "stubble water" from the pocket hanging there.

It was a mixture of strong acid, and he unscrewed the lid and carefully dripped onto the back of the copper horse.

A burst of acid bubbles bubbled, Zhang Haike avoided his face to the side, and the stubble water quickly corroded a large hollow on the back of the copper horse, and the structure inside also revealed its true face.

Zhang Haike put away the stubble water, lit the fire and probed into the hole that dissolved, and saw that it was really complicated, and there were hundreds of silk threads that could be seen, all of which were very tight.

Looking through the gap in the silk threads, one could see that a small disc was attached to the upper middle of all the silk threads, and it was filled with small iron beads.

Although the surface of the iron bead is very rusty, you can still see that there are many complicated patterns engraved on it.

This is a kind of touch string mechanism, very sensitive, the bottom of the disc is the balance box invented by Lu Ban, the slightest vibration, the disc will tilt, so that the iron ball rolls out of the disc and falls into the trap box below.

At this point, the disc has regained its balance, but the falling iron balls hit the silk thread, bouncing all the way, and each silk thread triggers a trap.

There are hundreds of silk threads here just by visual inspection, and the silk threads that the iron ball touches are different, and the performance triggers seven or eight different mechanisms at one time. (End of chapter)
