When Li Yuanhong saw that there was a mechanism on the stairs, he quickly stopped and started looking for the mechanism switch near the stairway. As a result, Li Yuanhong was greatly disappointed. His true eyes did not find any trace of the mechanism switch.
This made Li Yuanhong very puzzled. Is the switch on top? This design is very unreasonable. Suddenly Li Yuanhong remembered some plots in novels, saying that the ancients designed organs according to the Five Elements and Bagua. Why set traps on 135 but not on 246? Is this the same for this staircase
So Li Yuanhong picked up the stone ball on the ground and threw it towards the second staircase. Sure enough, there was no response from the staircase. It seemed that his guess was right.
So Li Yuanhong cautiously stepped on the even-numbered stairs and began to climb up cautiously.
Fortunately, the stairs were not very long. After climbing about three meters, the space suddenly opened up and it was another stone room.
This stone chamber is no longer bare. The four walls are inlaid with statues of the heads of four animals. The four animals are the bear, the viper, the lion and the horse with one horn.
Apart from these four animals, there is a round table in the center of the stone house, and there is nothing else.
This made Li Yuanhong very puzzled. This stone room was obviously not the stone room where the portal was located, but looking around, there were no other exits. This was very unreasonable. It seemed that there was some secret mechanism hidden in this room. As long as Turn on the mechanism to open the path to the next room.
So Li Yuanhong began to search around. Except for the four special statues on the surrounding walls, he found nothing else that caught Li Yuanhong's attention. However, Li Yuanhong quickly noticed the round table in the middle.
So Li Yuanhong walked to the table cautiously. Everything was normal and no accident happened. When Li Yuanhong walked to the table, he found that there was a pattern on the table. The pattern looked like four kinds of magic, namely water, wind, earth and wood.
Moreover, Li Yuanhong moved the table again and found that the table was fixed in the center of the stone chamber and could not be moved, but the reliefs on the table could actually slide.
Seeing this phenomenon, Li Yuanhong tried moving the pictures on the table and found that the pictures could exchange positions through some regular movements.
Moreover, Li Yuanhong also discovered that the pictures on the tables were placed exactly opposite the animal statues on the wall. This made Li Yuanhong probably understand that the pictures on the table must match the animals on the wall in order to open the next door.
But what do these animals have to do with the table patterns
The lion eats meat and lives on the grassland. The horse also lives on the grassland, but it eats grass. Snakes can be found everywhere and eat meat. As for the bear, they usually live in the jungle and eat everything. It seems My favorite is honey.
Li Yuanhong felt a headache when he thought of these messy things. These things had nothing to do with the patterns on the table!
Wait, Li Yuanhong suddenly realized that he had forgotten something. This is the Mediterranean, and the worship of animals is different. For example, when it comes to snakes, Mediterranean people seem to think of cobras in the desert, especially when Cleopatra seemed to have committed suicide with a cobra from the desert. And looking at the snake on the wall, it looks very similar to a cobra.
If you look at it this way, then the snake should represent soil, because there is soil everywhere in the desert, and it is extremely difficult to find trees, vegetation and water.
The snake is established, but what do the lion, the bear and the horse represent
"No!" Li Yuanhong suddenly muttered to himself. Fortunately, there was no one around, otherwise he would have been shocked.
Li Yuanhong suddenly remembered that if the horse grew horns, it would not be a horse, but another mythical creature: a unicorn.
If it is a unicorn, then Li Yuanhong can confirm that the wood attributes, pictures and texts should be oriented towards the unicorn, because the unicorn is a sacred object in the jungle and is said to be the companion of the jungle elves.
But the bear also lives in the jungle, so what does this mean
Li Yuanhong subconsciously shined his flashlight on the bear statue and found that the bear statue was somewhat different from the grizzly and brown bears in his memory, that is, the face was a bit longer.
This reminded Li Yuanhong of the Animal World he watched before the end of the world. As a senior single, Li Yuanhong would always watch some miscellaneous programs if he took a break before the end of the world. Animal World and various legendary adventure programs were all Li Yuanhong's choices to pass the time. .
Seeing the bear with a long face reminded Li Yuanhong of polar bears, the bears that lived in the ice and snow and hunted on the ice.
In the world of ice and snow, isn't it all water? It just changed its form. Li Yuanhong was relieved now. This bear should be the polar bear that represents water, and among the Western constellations, both Ursa Major and Ursa Minor are in the north. Obviously, this bear represents water that cannot escape.
Then there is only one lion left, and the others all have corresponding ones. Only the lion corresponds to the wind. In fact, Li Yuanhong will understand after thinking about it. This lion lives on the grassland, and isn't the grassland the home of the wind!
So Li Yuanhong moved the pictures and texts on the desktop to the corresponding positions according to the matching method he had thought of. When the last picture and text were matched, the wall where the unicorn was located made a vibrating sound of a machine, and then the entire wall cracked. The wall was disconnected from the middle of the unicorn and moved to both sides, revealing an upward path. The passage that goes.
Li Yuanhong carefully tested it with a stone ball again and found that this time there was no mechanism on the stairs, so Li Yuanhong walked upwards with confidence.
After successfully walking through this passage, Li Yuanhong came to the next room. It was still an empty room, and it was also surrounded by solid stone walls. There was no shadow of any passage. Obviously there were some mechanisms or puzzles waiting for him here.
So Li Yuanhong began to observe carefully. Now that Li Yuanhong deliberately opened the Eyes of Reality for a long time, he felt that his eyes were a little sore. After looking carefully, he found that there were no traps around him, so Li Yuanhong sat cross-legged and meditated, closed his eyes to take a rest, and thought about how to deal with the next thing.
Originally, Li Yuanhong planned to command the army and destroy the demon clan in one fell swoop, but several things made Li Yuanhong hesitate. The first is the contact with the Italian government this time. I originally helped them clear out the zombies, but they still guarded me like thieves. They were far less enthusiastic than when they welcomed the Allies, especially the US military, during World War II.
Being estranged means that the other party is not a staunch ally of oneself. Once oneself cleans out these demons, it is estimated that they will throw themselves into the arms of the United States without hesitation. What Li Yuanhong didn't want to see at this time was that he had worked hard and then let others pick up the fruits of victory.
Secondly, this time Li Yuanhong spent nearly 400 missiles to attack a small town, but only killed some low-end demons. Those high-level demons were rarely injured. If he led the troops to attack, the losses would probably not be a small number. This kind of effective Li Yuanhong didn't want to fight a battle with a lot of casualties unless he had to.
Moreover, Li Yuanhong thought of a problem through this attack. The missile used in this attack was still a traditional missile, that is, the explosives inside the missile were dynamite or similar chemical products, without a trace of magic elements. If a magic circle is carved on the missile, will it be able to kill these high-level demons
This needs to be studied by the old scientists on Sakhalin Island. Li Yuanhong asked them to carve magic circles on the bullets. As a result, the attack power increased greatly. Many zombies that could not be killed by bullets in the past became the dead souls of Li Yuanhong's gun. But this Seed bullets require a very complicated process and the cost is a bit high, so they cannot be popularized, so Li Yuanhong did not promote them.
This time Li Yuanhong thought of modifying the missiles and then attacking those high-level demons, but he didn't know what the effect would be.
Li Yuanhong thought about all sorts of things for a long time. Although he didn't let his brain rest for long, his tired eyes finally relaxed. So Li Yuanhong jumped up and started to continue searching.
There is nothing special about the floor and roof of the house. It seems that only the four walls have problems. So Li Yuanhong carefully looked at the four walls.
The four walls are carved with murals. The first picture shows a dragon breathing fire, and below a knight is holding a shield to resist the dragon's flames.
The second picture shows a huge scorpion, spraying a kind of light through the tip of its tail, attacking a knight below. The knight still raised his shield to resist.
The third picture shows a knight standing on the bow of a ship, holding up the spear in his hand, fighting with a giant octopus emerging from the water. The tentacles of the giant octopus are half the size of the boat. It seems that the giant octopus can actually come out at any time. May be entangled in the tentacles of the giant chapter.
The fourth picture shows a giant python, coiled on a towering tree, with a huge bloody mouth, spitting out scarlet poison, and spitting poisonous mist at a knight under the tree.
Regarding these four paintings, Li Yuanhong was speechless for a while. Obviously, the knight in these four paintings was a legendary hero. However, the knight's appearance was too old-fashioned, and his movements were almost the same, except for the octopus in the picture. The shield was replaced with a spear, and the movements in the other three paintings were exactly the same. If these murals were not the product of tens of thousands of years ago, Li Yuanhong even suspected that they were the product of pasting and copying by the painter.
However, after looking for a long time, Li Yuanhong couldn't find the secret of these paintings. Except that Li Yuanhong's real eye discovered that there were weak magic fluctuations on the surface of the paintings, there was no other discovery.
Am I going to be trapped here
Just as Li Yuanhong was wandering around, he came to the painting of the octopus. His nose felt sour and he suddenly sneezed. This time, the sneeze hit the mural. This time, the magic circle on the mural reacted. The octopus was in the picture. There were waves on the sea surface.
Li Yuanhong was very surprised by these changes. Li Yuanhong had an idea and seemed to have caught something, so Li Yuanhong had an idea.
