Origin Chapter 123: Hall of Ecstasy
Xiao Qin is an expert in tracking, and her purpose is naturally to find clues, so as to determine which way Zhao Ying and others have taken.
However, the observation results made Xiao Qin greatly puzzled, because there were no footprints left on the left and right fork roads, and no footprints were left on the forward passage.
“These passages can be moved, and the traces they walked through may have been wiped off by the moving stone walls.” Xiao Qin said.
Wang Xinran was not surprised by Xiao Qin's observation and asked Huang Hailin, "What are the consequences of continuing to move forward?"
"There may be other changes in the passage," Huang Hailin said. "The stone walls on all sides may move up, down, left and right."
Xiao Qin looked at Huang Hailin in confusion, "What's the purpose of building this kind of mechanism?"
Huang Hailin thought for a while, and said, "This kind of mechanism has many uses. There are two biggest possibilities. One is to move the stone wall to isolate those who may follow behind the sacrificial team. Trespassers who don't know the correct route are trapped."
Everyone looked at each other in dismay after hearing the words. Naturally, everyone didn't know the correct route. If they didn't know the correct route, the consequence of rushing in would be to be trapped in this maze.
Huang Hailin added, "I have seen a similar mechanism before, in a large tomb of the Qin Dynasty. The Qin and Han Dynasty advocated thick burials, and the tomb protection mechanism is also the most exquisite, but compared with the mechanism here, it is very Simply, this kind of organ has a great feature, the organ itself does not have the ability to kill, and after trapping the trespasser, the agency will force the trespasser into another deadly mechanism."
"What is the purpose of this design?" Xiao Qin asked again.
"The purpose is to ensure that the mechanism can always operate normally," Huang Hailin explained. "This kind of mechanism needs to move up, down, left and right. If the trespasser dies inside, the body and belongings will be stuck in the middle of the stone wall. It hinders the operation of the organ, so after the organ traps the intruder, it will force them into a relatively independent space, and let the intruder die there."
After Huang Hailin finished speaking, Xiao Qin answered, "That relatively independent space acts as a garbage dump?"
"Yes, but it's not a single garbage dump, but a slaughterhouse and garbage dump, where trespassers are killed or starved to death." Huang Hailin nodded.
Wang Xinran interjected, "Why couldn't it be sent there after being trapped to death?"
Huang Hailin said, "Have you ever played a jigsaw puzzle? The mechanism here is similar to that of a jigsaw puzzle game. Every movement of the stone wall will have a chain reaction, which is what we often say that a single move will affect the whole body. If there are many intruders, the agency will not have enough space to imprison them. In order to ensure the continuous operation of the agency, after capturing the trespassers, the agency will force them into the deadly agency as soon as possible while running.”
"Can you analyze the internal structure and operation principle of this organ?" Wang Xinran asked again.
Huang Hailin shook his head, "It's difficult, I'll try it first."
The basis of Huang Hailin's analysis is the dust attached to the stone walls on the four sides of the main passage. Some of the stone walls in front of them are covered with dust, and some are not dusty. According to the distribution of dust, it may be possible to infer and restore the movement of the stone walls when the mechanism is activated. .
Xiao Qin reminded, "Outside the copper pillar, three people need to stand on the same step to make the copper pillar turn around. After the copper pillar turned over, we entered four people, and then the copper pillar began to turn on its own. "
Huang Hailin was thinking anxiously and didn't answer. Wang Xinran said later, "You mean the sacrifices here are not large-scale? There are not many people coming in?"
"Yes," Xiao Qin nodded, "there may only be three people, and there are exactly three passages here. Is there such a possibility that these three passages require three people to walk separately to pass safely?"
When everyone was talking, Wu Zhongyuan didn't say a word, and at this time he finally couldn't hold back, "I have a..."
Before Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, Wang Xinran raised his hand to interrupt him, and turned to Xiao Qin and said, "It seems that there is such a possibility, but have you ever thought about it, if it is what you said, then rule it out In view of the possibility of human sacrifice, the three people who entered are all voluntary."
"It's also possible that the individual items inside are not very large, the food is not a lot, and the sacrifices were taken by three people." Xiao Qin also felt that his inference lacked sufficient basis, and added, "I This is just speculation, for your reference only."
After Xiao Qin finished speaking, Wu Zhongyuan wanted to speak again, but Wang Xinran interrupted him again and said to Xiao Qin, "If we go separately, if the agency is activated, we will be separated, and the situation will be even worse. Dangerous."
After Wang Xinran finished speaking, Huang Hailin waved his hand and signaled everyone not to speak. When he was concentrating on thinking, someone on the side was very distracted.
Wu Zhongyuan wanted to speak again, but Wang Xinran pointed at Huang Hailin, motioning him not to interrupt Huang Hailin's observation and analysis.
Wu Zhongyuan couldn't hold it in anymore, and he didn't care about it anymore, "I have a question."
"What?" Wang Xinran asked in a low voice.
“How did the organs in these passages trigger?” Wu Zhongyuan asked.
Only Huang Hailin can answer this question. Although he was disturbed by Wu Zhongyuan's speech, Huang Hailin still answered the question, "Gravity."
"Isn't it possible that the mechanism won't be triggered if I don't sense gravity?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.
"What do you want to say?" Huang Hailin looked back.
"Did you forget that we still have a bird?" Wu Zhongyuan pointed at the little **** on Xiao Qin's shoulder.
As soon as Wu Zhongyuan said this, everyone was stunned. Before that, they had been worrying about how to pass the passage, but they forgot that Xiao Qin had a starling on his shoulders, and even Xiao Qin himself forgot.
"Can you let it fly in and take a look?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
"Yes." Xiao Qin nodded.
Wang Xinran also felt embarrassed for repeatedly interrupting Wu Zhongyuan's words before, "It has been silent, and we all forgot about it."
Huang Hailin was also a little embarrassed, "Yeah, sometimes you have to make some noise, otherwise it's easy to be forgotten."
Yang Yi laughed, "The consequence of making a noise is to be sent out to die."
While everyone was laughing, Xiao Qin took out a headgear and put it on the starling's head. This headgear should be tailor-made for the starling. Several small ropes were connected to the small camera device.
After putting on the headgear, Xiao Qinchong pointed to the passage ahead, "Go."
It can be seen that the little **** is reluctant to leave the master, but it still executes the order, flapping its wings and flying towards the passage directly ahead.
After the little **** flew away, Xiao Qin immediately started timing. Although the little **** could speak, he couldn't make complex descriptions. She needed to estimate the length of this passage by the time the little **** left.
Because there is no network underground, the small camera on the little nigger's head can't send back real-time images, and the situation in the tunnel can only be seen when it returns.
After dozens of seconds, the little **** came back. Seeing that the little **** looked normal, Xiao Qin raised his right finger, and the little **** flew into the passage on the right again.
It also took tens of seconds to go back and forth. The last inspection was the left channel, which was also tens of seconds. But this time, the little **** looked very nervous. The nervousness of birds is mainly manifested in panic in their eyes and feathers. Will stand up fluffy.
Xiao Qin took off the small camera device on the little nigger's head, took out the mobile phone card and checked it. The first thing displayed was the scene of the middle passage. The length of the middle passage was about 50 meters, and the walls of the passage were not flat. Yes, there are dents in some places, and dust is not everywhere.
At the end of the middle passage is a stone wall with no exit and no stone gate.
The situation of the right passage is similar to the middle passage, and there is also a stone wall at the end.
The last thing I saw was the image of the left channel. At first, the situation of the channel was not much different from the other two, but this channel has an end. At the end of the channel is a very wide area. The area of this area is It is about the size of a small auditorium, and inside is a strange and terrifying ghost scene. Behind the hazy Qiongtai pavilion, there is a row of hanged corpses...
