This formation is mainly based on the theme of "everything changes in an instant". As the saying goes, no matter how things change, they still remain essentially the same. Xing Nong roughly understood its mysteries in the first level. With her knowledge of formations and her super calculation ability, she could see what was going on at a glance.
She opened the door without hesitation, walked in, opened the door, walked in...
After opening a total of sixteen doors, they finally reached the third level.
This level ends faster than the previous one.
Mr. Xu said excitedly: "Princess Xingnong, how did you figure out the order of opening the doors at a glance?"
Xing Nong: "This is very simple, it can be calculated."
Everyone: “… ”
Simple
The formation that blocked thousands of formation masters, she actually said it was simple
But when I think about how quickly Xingnong opened the door just now, I know that she really thinks it is simple.
So the gap between them and Miss Xingnong is not a chasm, but an ocean!
Seeing everyone's shocked expressions, Elder Tang stroked his beard and said smugly, "My beloved disciple is born to be able to break through the formation! Don't compete with her, or you will die young! As the saying goes, comparison is the thief of anger!"
Everyone: “… ”
Mr. Guo simply ignored Mr. Tang, and turned his gaze towards Xingnong: "Princess Xingnong, how did you calculate this?"
Xing Nong: "This is a long story. I will explain it to Mr. Guo after we get out."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Xu immediately said, "Princess Xingnong, I want to know too! You can't be partial to one and ignore the other!"
"Yes, Princess Xingnong, we want to know too!"
... ... .
He answered the same question to one person and to a group of people. Xing Nong said nonchalantly, "Everyone can listen to it when the time comes."
In fact, this formation has only one secret room, but it requires opening all sixteen doors once before going out.
Because the positions of these doors will change, but it is not difficult to calculate them once you understand the rules of the cube and are familiar with the knowledge of formations.
The difficulty lies in the fact that these formation masters do not have such powerful calculation ability as her.
Or it could be said that a lot of knowledge in this dynasty was relatively backward. The mathematical knowledge they were exposed to was not profound enough, and not everyone knew how to learn arithmetic. What they learned were only the basic arithmetic knowledge needed for daily life, so they were not able to perform some advanced calculations.
Xingnong thought: The master who set up this formation must also have a high level of attainment in arithmetic!

The third level is a carousel scene. There are many stone-carved horses running around a circular platform, and they will suddenly disappear in front of you.
Mr. Guo: "I have been breaking into this formation for quite some time. These horses run too fast. I have found a total of thirty stone horses over the years! I originally thought that the way to break the formation was to ride on the running stone horses. As long as I rode them correctly, I could break the formation. But I have ridden all the thirty horses and still cannot break the formation."
Xingnong didn't say anything. She just stared at the horses running past her without blinking. Each of these stone horses looked the same, but because they were carved from stone, there were no two identical stones in the world, so if you looked carefully, you could still find differences in the stone patterns on the horses.
It was the first time for the others to come to this level. They looked at the horses running in front of them and started counting in their minds, but they found that the horses were turning too fast, which dazzled them.
Mr. Xu looked at it carefully and said: "Tie some ropes of different colors on the stone horses, so that they are easier to count!"
Old Guo shook his head: "I have tried this method before, but it is too late. You need to ride on the horse to tie the rope, but as long as you touch the horse, you will be out of the formation immediately!"
Mr. Tang: "We should prepare some brushes and ink, so that we can recognize it by just drawing a line on it!"
Mr. Guo shook his head: "Such a simple method, do you think I can't think of it? No, this stone is weird, it won't leave any ink marks!"
Elder Tang frowned when he heard this: "This method doesn't work, and that method doesn't work. Then how did you count that there are a total of thirty stone horses?"
Mr. Guo raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "I distinguished it with my naked eyes!"
God knows he has been watching it for several years. He comes here every day and stays for the whole day when he has free time!
How can you not recognize them if you stare at these stones every day
Unfortunately, he had tried riding all thirty horses, but still hadn't found a way to break the formation!
But since he rode the wrong way, he was sent out of the formation, which means that this is the way to break the formation.
"It's not thirty horses, it's thirty-six!" Xing Nong said affirmatively.
"Thirty-six?" There were still six horses that he hadn't found? Mr. Guo's eyes widened, not understanding which six horses he hadn't found.
Using modern time, Xingnong found the pattern of the horses' rotation and calculated their rotation speed after just three minutes of observation.
They make one rotation in exactly one minute.
Xingnong looked at it three times to make sure he didn't count wrong!
Master Tang has great faith in Xing Nong. Even if his beloved disciple doesn't use his eyes and only relies on intuition to count, he will not make mistakes!
"My dear disciple, come and count for Master Guo and tell him where he counted wrong!"
Xing Nong was not afraid of the trouble, so she began to count: "The first ear has a black heart-shaped pattern, and the second one has a black heart-shaped pattern on its left front hoof..."
Everyone listened to Xingnong's words and finally recognized the horse before it disappeared!
Just after one minute, Xingnong counted thirty-six horses!
Mr. Guo was full of admiration: "Princess Xingnong has a sharp eye! She counted so clearly in such a short time!"
He had seen it for so many years, no less than ten thousand times, but it was still not as clear as what the other person could see in a short moment!
Is it because of old age that my eyes are blurry
Shen Hanyu had a question in his mind: "Royal sister, now that you have counted the number of stone horses, do you know how to break the formation? You can't just ride every horse, right?"
Xing Nong nodded and pointed to a black dot under his feet: "After the first horse passes this dot thirty-six times, it will be the life gate. It has passed it six times now. I calculated that it will take about two quarters of an hour to pass it thirty-six times, which means that the life gate will appear after two quarters of an hour."
Everyone shook their heads. They didn’t expect it to be like this. No wonder Mr. Guo hadn’t succeeded in breaking through the formation for so many years!
Even if you ride the right horse, it won’t work because you have to wait until that horse has passed by thirty-six times before you can ride it again!
Who on earth came up with this formation? Did this person want to blind those who entered the formation
The life gate appears once every half an hour, and it is fleeting. This makes it too difficult for the formation master present to judge.
Because if you stare at the horses appearing without blinking, you will be dizzy.
After a while, Feng Lao said, "No, I'm dazzled!"
"Yeah! I feel dizzy just watching it!"
"I've watched the first horse appear thirty-six times, and I don't even need my eyes anymore!"
... ..
A group of elderly people over fifty years old were in tears at this moment.
Xing Nong: "... ... There's no need to keep waiting! The time is almost up, can't you just stare at me?"
So she felt that this formation was a waste of time!
Everyone: “… ”
Oh yeah! How could they not think of that?!
