"What's going on?" Jiang Ning frowned.

Shen Wangyan shrugged: "I only came out ten minutes earlier than you. I just checked your wall, and then you came out. But the tomb over there is a side room for storing ancient books. There is no information, it's all about Shen Yanfavorite things."

"Oh," Jiang Ning rubbed her red nails, "Then I'm more useful than you. They're all crop seeds, and I can still nibble a couple of them when I'm hungry."

Shen Wangyan continued with kindness: "It's a pity that the one who yelled and was hungry is not here."

As soon as he finished speaking, it was like stepping on thunder, and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.The two had their own ghosts and thoughts, but neither of them said anything, so it wasn't all bad, at least when they were quiet, they seemed harmonious on the surface.

"How did you get out?"

Jiang Ning studied the ancillary room where Shen Wangyan came out for a long time, and found that there was no difference between the doors of the two ancillary rooms. This is definitely not a door that ordinary people can open by forcefully lifting, let alone the delicate and frail Young Master Shen inside the door.

"My door opened by itself."

"Have you found the mechanism to open the door?"

"No, it just opened suddenly."

Jiang Ning was full of disbelief.

Shen Wangyan was tired from standing, and sat on the steps of the altar, calmly said: "Although some areas are still blank, I can figure out the general structure and mechanism design of this tomb."

He took out a pen and a sketchbook from his bag, and sketched on the paper.Our young master Shen is also considered a top student of Jin Ling Academy of Fine Arts, he has been very talented in art since he was a child, with his posture of holding a brush and his speed of drawing, anyone who sees him will not call him a boss.He is not only good at drawing, but also has excellent spatial imagination. With just a few strokes, he has depicted the entire structure of the huge tomb in style.

Jiang Ning glanced casually—he disassembled the tomb into upper and lower floors, and had two identical front rooms, but only drew seven auxiliary rooms.For the relationship between the distribution room and the front room, he drew a separate side sectional view. In his design, the distribution room can move up and down, and its function is similar to that of an elevator.There is no door to the matching room, and only when it is connected with the front room, can the real and false two front rooms be entered through the wall of the front room.

In this way, the reason for the change of the door opening method can be perfectly interpreted. The walls of the real front room open and close left and right, while the false front room opens and closes up and down.

Jiang Ning suddenly realized.

Seeing her expression, Young Master Shen said speechlessly: "Didn't you notice that the ancillary room moved up and down?"

Oh she didn't even know this antechamber wasn't the one before, but then again, she didn't necessarily need to know that.For Jiang Ning, whether there is a road or not is not determined by the owner of the tomb.

Shen Wangyan watched her smile turn abnormal, and twitched the corners of her mouth: "Restrain yourself, I still want Shen Yan to see the complete tomb."

Jiang Meiren smiled: "That's your business."

"But it's useless even if we know the structure of this tomb now." Shen Wangyan put away his sketchbook, stood up, and illuminated the surroundings of the false front room with the flashlight. "To some extent, we are stillStuck here."

Jiang Ning turned her eyes to the wall behind her. Except for the two ancillary rooms where they came out, the doors of the other five rooms were closed.According to Shen Wangyan's guess, the matching room only moved up and down, so Bao Le, Jun Zhi and Shen San must be behind these five walls, just like they were before.It's just that he didn't know what mechanism Shen Wangyan had activated, but his door opened by itself.

The two stood by one of the walls, and Jiang Ning squatted down to check.

"Can it be opened?"

Jiang Ning shook her head: "No, part of the door is at the bottom. There is no point of strength. It can only be opened from the inside of the distribution room. There is basically no way to go outside. If you bring explosives, you can consider it."

Shen Wangyan frowned: "This door is at least 30 centimeters thick, this dose of explosives will hurt the people inside the door."

The implication is that he really has the explosives that can blow open the door.

"Then there is no other way, obediently find an agency."

This tomb, which has the same setting as the real front room, has one of the biggest differences from the front room, which is the eighth wall.They came in from the corridor full of ghosts and bull lanterns, so there was a door there before, and there were only seven wall carvings.Now the tomb has eight complete walls, and the extra side is also very interesting.

On the eighth wall is a chessboard with ten horizontal lines and twelve vertical lines. The chessboard is full of chess pieces. None of the totems on the one hundred and twenty chess pieces are repeated.Judging from the style of the totem, there is almost no pattern to be found. Some totems on some chess pieces have only one or two strokes, but some look more like a stick figure.

In ancient China, such a totem is likely to be an ancient text.

"I don't have a good memory, Shen Wangyan, take a look, does this look familiar?"

Shen Wangyan walked up to her and shone the light of the flashlight on the huge chessboard.This kind of totem writing is Shen Yan's specialty, and he has never seen it as a layman.This is also the reason why he checked the wall long before Jiang Ning appeared, but he didn't say anything.After all, this wall was the biggest difference between the two front rooms, and he must have noticed it from the start.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Jiang Ning couldn't help but bowed her head and smiled.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Jiang Ning gently parted her lips: "God's gift."

To the Shen family, especially Shen Wangyan, these two words are like a thousand catties.Young Master Shen's face, which was not bad at first, turned pale in an instant, and there was a tearing pain in his chest.Jiang Ning watched him leaning down, his right hand with well-defined phalanx grasped her front lapel fiercely, and suddenly began to take a big breath as if he had been holding his breath for a long time.

"I forgot. You haven't started the gift of heaven, so naturally you don't recognize this thing."

Jiang Ning seemed to be doing it on purpose, like a poisonous snake voicing out a letter: "Thanks to your Shen family, I have been blessed by God for several years. I am more familiar with this stuff than you."

Shen Wangyan supported the wall and slowly stood up. Jiang Ning wanted to say a few more words, but the moment she met his gaze, her heart trembled, and she swallowed back the words she was about to say.

She thought he would be angry.

But this young master of the Shen family just gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, and looked back at her with calm and firm eyes.

She is really familiar with this look, the standard Shen's eyes - the eyes of the Son of Heaven.

"How could these things be God's gift? Even if God's gift is written, it is also a word that cannot be written. You are underestimating me. The Shen family has always known what they are going to do. I want to change my fate, but it doesn't mean I don't know my fate."

Shen Wangyan added: "Your frightening appearance is exactly the same as my grandma."

Jiang Ning sneered: "Don't, I don't look like that crazy girl at all."

"You're just annoyed that I took your Tianyuan Jade Bi, but now it's returned to the original owner?" Shen Wangyan sighed softly and subdued, "I said a long time ago that I am different from them. If youBelieve me, what I promise will be done.”

After a long time, Jiang Ning said softly: "I still don't believe you."

What she said was already a step back, and Shen Wangyan didn't struggle anymore.

Jiang Ning pointed to the chess pieces on the wall and said, "Although this thing is not a gift from heaven, it is also related to it. If I remember correctly, the last time I saw this totem was on the spine book of the Aisan tribe."

Shen Wangyan: "Sure enough, it's Ai Sang."

Jiang Ning was surprised: "You know?"

Shen Wangyan: "Don't you think that after coming to Guyu, many things are not right?"

Jiang Ning pondered.

There is indeed something wrong. Before coming here, Jiang Ning's positioning of this operation is not dangerous, but since she went down to this tomb, until now, there have been many unexpected situations that she expected.

Thinking about it now, everything is too coincidental.

Before they went to the tomb, they encountered biogas. In fact, it is impossible for such a high concentration of biogas to exist naturally in such a dry underground without rot accumulation to form a biogas pit.There is also the evil ghost bull lamp in the corridor, and there is still unvailed lamp oil after thousands of years.The Shadowless Water Arrow, the Rain Shuttle, and even the mechanisms on the wall of the front room are all functioning normally without any malfunction.This is too demanding for an ancient tomb of the Han Dynasty.

Unless, someone maintains it regularly.

The very thought is enough to make one feel creepy.

At what step did they start to be calculated, and who was waiting in the dark to calculate them.If there are the spine books of the Aisan people here, can it prove that the secret force is the Aisan people who have disappeared for many years?

Shen Wangyan obviously thought of the same thing as her, but he still has something new to discover.

He said: "This chessboard is like a certain password."

"What's the meaning?"

"The ten horizontal lines represent the heavenly stems, and the twelve vertical lines represent the earthly branches. Although they are not clearly marked, each of these symbols should represent a time. It doesn't necessarily mean the meaning of the symbols themselves, it's more like the method used by their family to record the year, but I don't knowWhich symbols to press."

Shen Wangyan said again: "The first one pressed it for us, Geng Shen."

That was the only piece pressed down on the board.

In the archaeological activities outside Ya'an in 1920, the tomb was found, but in the end the entire archaeological team was almost wiped out, and the materials that could be brought out were only one photo and two manuscripts.As for why there was such a tragic result, it has always been a mystery among the few families that sent people at that time.Afterwards, their people went to Ya'an for exploration many times, and they never encountered danger again, so the matter was overturned.

However, 1920 happened to be the year of Geng Shen, which is also the basis for Shen Wangyan to infer that the distribution of the chessboard is the celestial stems and earthly branches.

Jiang Ning was brought into memory by his words, and sighed a long sigh: "Well, the Calamity of Gengshen, after all, a hundred years have passed."

"Now this one doesn't seem to have any tricks, let's look for other clues."

...

Jun Zhi grabs Bao Le.

Bao Le, who was just mechanically repeating forward movements, suddenly woke up and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jun Zhi took a picture of the wall on the right—their bags and Junzhi’s hair tails were still hanging on it. Isn’t this the magnet wall when they first came in? The good guy came back again, so theySure enough, it went a circle.

Bao Le glanced at his watch: "It takes five hours and eight minutes to walk around this circle, it seems really big."

After walking for so long, their flashlights are almost out of power.Bao Le reached into his backpack again to feel it, then took out seven or eight light sticks, and handed three to Jun Zhi.The lighting ability of a fluorescent stick is definitely not as good as a flashlight, but if the flashlight really runs out of power, there must be something to spare, right?

"Let me think about what to do now."

Bao Le touched the place where they came in, and as expected, he didn't see any crack in the door that could be opened.

"I clearly remember that when I came in, it was a door that opened and closed left and right. Why did it disappear? What the hell." Bao Le thumped the stone wall twice, but the stone wall remained motionless and there was no response.

The little girl's violent temper came up, and she lost her temper against the wall: "Hey, I still don't believe it, I can't even handle you!"

Just as she was about to hit the wall again, Jun Zhi moved his legs, and hurried to her side before she could make a move, grabbed her wrist, and shook his head at her.Bao Le knew that he didn't want her to get hurt, so he was a little sad for a while.Although he didn't speak, he must have been impatient after being stuck here for such a long time, but he still didn't forget to protect her.

Jun Zhi let go of her hand, but didn't move away from the stone wall in front of her, instead he groped it with his hand.

"There is a door," he said suddenly.

Bao Le came to his senses, leaned closer and asked, "Where is it?"

Jun Zhi squatted down slowly along the crack of the door, and scraped the dust on the ground with a knife. Now even Bao Le could see that there was a crack between the ground and the wall, barely enough to put his finger in.Jun Zhi did the same thing. He squatted down and grabbed the bottom of the door panel trying to lift it up.

After ten minutes of hard work, Shimen still didn't budge.

Bao Le, who was lighting up for him next to him, saw that he was really desperate. Because of too much force, his originally fair arm was red and bloodshot, and the blue veins were visible to the naked eye.If the door does not open again, it is really possible that he will gradually intensify his efforts until his hands are useless.

"Don't try," Bao Le wanted to hold his hand distressedly, "Since it's a door, there's no reason why it can't be opened if you can't open it with brute force. I'm so good at finding mechanisms, you believe me, I can do it."

Jun Zhi didn't seem to hear what she said, and the strength in his hand didn't decrease.

Bao Le's heart sank, he knelt down beside him, and stretched his fingers into the gap, imitating him and breaking open the door with all his strength.

How can she have any strength, the door that even the emperor can't open, and she is just a drop in the bucket.She doesn't want Jun Zhi to continue to do stupid things, but he doesn't listen to her. This method may be stupid, but at least it works.

Jun Zhi stopped and took her hand out from under the door.

He always remembered that she had a pair of very beautiful hands. Before Yuan Baozhai glanced at them, the hands that handed him the sweet-scented osmanthus cake were pink, tender and fleshy, with neatly manicured nails and a thin layer of paint on them.transparent nail polish.

Because of the excessive force, the nail of the index finger was scratched with a gap, and there was a red mark along with the flesh of the finger.It hurts to look at it, he thought.

Jun Zhi took out the band-aid from his pocket, and even he didn't know why his hand, which was always steady, was trembling.

If he was injured like this, it wouldn't take two minutes for him to recover, but if he was an ordinary person with such a delicate girl, he would probably suffer for several days.

Bao Le didn't care about these things, she still thought of such a good way for herself to stop him from being complacent.

The little girl thought for a while, and said seriously: "I think the mechanism of this door should be in this corridor. We walked on the right side along the road just now, and we didn't see any hidden doors or mechanisms, so it seems that the mechanism has a high probability.It's on the left."

It would be great if it was really that simple, Jun Zhi understood in his heart, but he didn't want to refute her at this time.

"It will take five hours to complete one trip, but if we each go halfway, we can find the mechanism in two hours at the slowest..."

"No," Jun Zhi interrupted her, "We can't separate."

Bao Le sighed: "Listen to me, we walked through it just now, this tunnel is not dangerous, I can do it by myself."

Jun Zhi still has no intention of compromising.

"That's good," Bao Le took out the walkie-talkie, she remembered that Jun Zhi also had one, "We used the walkie-talkie to talk all the way. If I remember correctly, you made a total of ninety-six road signs.When you reach one, report the number to the other party, and then when you report the forty-eighth time, we can meet."

Jun Zhi was not fooled by her, and was about to speak, when Bao Le said again.

"It doesn't matter if the walkie-talkie is out of the acceptable range. This is a circle, and you can definitely hear the sound while walking. Even if something happened, you can roughly judge the road section where the accident occurred from the road signs."

Seeing that Jun Zhi was a little shaken, Bao Le took advantage of the victory to pursue.

"But it's only a distance of forty-eight road signs, I can do it!"

After a long time, Jun Zhi finally moved, walked silently to the backpack hanging on the wall, and took out the walkie-talkie from it.

Bao Le tested the two walkie-talkies separately to ensure that they could communicate normally before returning one of them to Junzhi.When she handed over the walkie-talkie, Jun Zhi pulled out his ceramic knife, turned the blade, and handed the handle towards her at the same time.

"Self-defense," he said.

This time she didn't hesitate to refuse. They all knew that Bao Le needed this knife even more now.

"Then, let's go!"

Bao Le faced the walkie-talkie, looked back at Jun Zhi, and after hearing her voice coming from Jun Zhi's walkie-talkie, the little girl turned her head again, and walked towards the dark corridor ahead without hesitation.
