Chapter 26: Pondering
......
Within the stone wall of the cliff of the sea of flowers, the ruins of the Ethereal Palace. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Wu Fu and Zhao Yimu sat in the empty hall, carefully studying this super Kong Ming lock. Kong Ming locks have always been easy to disassemble and difficult to install, but that is also relative, like such a complex Kong Ming lock, of course, it is extremely difficult to disassemble, and it is even more difficult to install!
The two of them carefully studied the lines on Kong Ming's lock, trying to find a breakthrough point in this way, but how easy was it to find the key ones among the hundreds of iron bars that fit perfectly? The two studied for more than two hours, and they didn't gain anything.
Grunt...... Zhao Yimu's stomach made a loud noise.
"No confusion, I'm hungry......" I haven't eaten for so long, Zhao Yimu is not an immortal, hunger is human nature.
But this stone palace has been abandoned for more than five hundred years, where will there be anything to eat? If you want to find food, you have to go out, but the Demon Sect should not give up so easily, at this time, Bacheng is in the sea of flowers, and it is obviously unwise to go out now.
"Yi Mu, I'm afraid I'll be caught by the Demon Sect if I go out now, or ...... "He didn't have anything to eat, but he could still get water."
"Don't ...... Don't love me anymore...... Obviously Nine Shades of Honey and Preserves...... I'm going to eat that!" It turns out that this little gluttonous cat is thinking about dessert, but honey and candied fruit are also quite nutritious, and it is not a big problem to eat them as rations for a short time.
So they went to the honey room, brought some honey and some candied fruit, and as long as the honey was well sealed, it would never spoil, and even after five hundred years, it would still be edible. And the candied fruit was tasted and found that there was no problem, so I took it.
Zhao Yimu ate the dessert, his face was full of satisfied expressions, the honey of this ethereal palace didn't know what kind of flower was brewed, it was particularly delicious! The two of them had shaken almost every iron bar, and none of them could shake it in the slightest, so how could they take it apart?
"Blame...... How do you feel like this thing is one? I can't open it at all. "I've been busy for so long, and I haven't been able to remove one, so I can't help but be a little anxious.
"It's not okay, what about it?" Zhao Yimu's mouth was bulging, like a little hamster, and he was slurred when he spoke, but he still understood what she was saying. Wu Tong nodded slightly, thinking that what she said also made sense, so Wu Fu poked one by one with his fingers, hoping to poke which one.
However, because the fingers were too thick, there was no way to continue to poke the iron bar, and the part that poked out was too small to be pulled out.
"Hey, sure enough!"
Anyway, this is a breakthrough point, and Wu Chao was immediately ecstatic, and hurriedly rushed into the housing area and took a bamboo chopstick. As a result, this poke suddenly poked out the iron bar an inch long! But poking to this extent is the limit, and there is no more poke out.
Wu Fu pinched the protruding part, pulling and twisting vigorously, but the black iron was strong, and no matter how much he tried to get it, it would not hurt it in the slightest. If you can't pull it out? Then there must be something that's still stuck in it.
So he tried to poke the other bars again, but the second one also made him poke an inch long, and he tried to pull and twist the second bar, but he still couldn't shake it. In this way, a total of fifty-four iron bars were poked out, nine on each side, and each one was neatly poked out an inch long, but the Kong Ming lock still could not be opened.
"Presumably, the mystery is all in this iron bar, but I don't know what kind of law there is?" Wu Wei carefully observed the arrangement of the protruding iron bars, trying to find some clues from them. According to habitual thinking, there is no reason why these iron bars would be pulled out an inch long for no reason, and they are so neat.
"No doubt, do you think that apart from these fifty-four iron bars, the other iron bars are themselves one? These lines are just a trick to confuse us? After all, I have never heard of anyone who can make such a smooth surface of Kong Ming locks. ”
Zhao Yimu is a strange woman, she is really smart sometimes, although more often she is still stupid. This casual sentence woke up without confusion. Why do you have to think about things so complicated? Since I have never heard of such a complicated Kong Ming lock, maybe this kind of thing does not exist! This thing may just look like a Kong Ming lock.
Not to mention how technically complicated this thing is if it is really a Kong Ming lock, it is not easy to process the material itself, thousands of such small iron bars are still made of dark iron, I am afraid that there are not many craftsmen who can do this.
Thinking of this, Wu Wei hurriedly picked up the so-called "Kong Ming lock" and pulled and twisted, since it can't be thought about separately, then try a whole! He tried to open this heavy guy. However, after tossing a full cup of tea, Wu Confused still failed to open the object.
He paused again to ponder, his mind back on the protruding bars. Why did this object design fifty-four iron bars that could be moved but could not be drawn? An imaginary structural diagram came to mind, if this thing was really just a box, then these iron bars could serve the purpose of fixing the connection and preventing the box from opening!
It's like a lock, which can only be opened when the key is correct, and only when the fifty-four movable iron bars are in the correct position can this thing be opened! It's a pity that after some tossing, Wufu still failed to open, and it seems that these fifty-four iron bars are not so simple.
But one thing is certain, since this item is used to store treasures, it can definitely be opened. If this thing can only be sealed but cannot be opened, then how should the palace master open it when he wants to take out the preserved object? Therefore, the palace master must have the key to open this thing!
It's just this key, I don't know if the palace master exists in his mind, or will he write it down? Of course, I hope it is the latter, and the latter is more likely, after all, people are easy to forget, and it is never enough to be safe in their minds.
"Yimu, let's go back and find it, there must be a secret to opening this thing in the palace master's room!" Wu Fu suddenly grabbed Zhao Yimu's wrist and rushed to the room full of bones again.
Zhao Yimu was extremely reluctant to go to that weird and broken room again, but she didn't dare to stay in the hall alone, so she had no choice but to go with her. Now I can only hope that I can find what I want sooner and leave that place.
