Liu Dongqing suddenly became impatient when he saw Qi Baye say half and not half.
"If you have something to say! Don't sell it! It's going to be dark soon! Let's make a quick fight, otherwise..."
Liu Dongqing was yelling, and Haizi hurriedly interrupted him.
"What kind of nonsense are you talking about? Didn't you see how Qi Baye was thinking? What else can you do besides yelling! Tell me!"
Haizi couldn't bear this selfish and grumpy impatient for a long time, and took a few steps to quarrel with Liu Dongqing, but was directly stopped by the note.
"Now is not the time to quarrel. Liu Dongqing is right. We must make a quick decision. The longer we stay here, the more disadvantaged it will be for us. We must finish the matter as soon as possible and leave here."
Baye Qi pondered for a while, and said, "This is an odd-even ladder."
Baye Qi said a noun that the note had never heard before, and Haizi was even stunned.
"Odd and even ladder array? What is it?" Haizi Dudou is also considered an expert, and his brain is really blank when he hears this word.
"Not bad." Qi Baye said, "This is a very rare odd-even formation. I have encountered it once before. Even professional books rarely mention this type of formation. It seems to be an ordinary formation. But it's very confusing. If I didn't guess wrong, every step here can be walked, and only odd and even steps can be taken. If you step on the wrong one, you will be finished."
After listening to the note, I was amazed. There is still such a brainstorming mechanism design in this world. It seems that this tomb maker is really not simple.
From the beginning to the end, every mechanism on every level was extremely unpredictable, and they were caught off guard when triggered, and it was a miracle that they could live to the present.
Tiaozi looked at the steps that triggered the arrow rain just after the stone was thrown. The steps of each trigger mechanism were odd-numbered steps. To further verify Qi Baye’s conclusion, Tiaozi threw another stone at the odd number of steps in front of him, and the mechanism did not trigger. And when he threw the stone to the even-numbered stairs, the mechanism was triggered again. What fell from this line was not a poisonous arrow, but a puddle of green stickiness. After the violent reaction, Qi exudes white gas.
"I'm going! This is a strong acid! If it is recruited, there will be no corpses left!" Haizi shivered as he looked at the acid water that was still reacting violently on the ground.
"Baye Qi is right. This is indeed related to odd and even numbers. If we keep stepping on odd numbers, there should be nothing wrong with it, but to prevent accidents, we still throw rocks and explore the way in advance."
Baye Qi nodded in agreement. He looked at Haizi and Liu Dongqing and said, "It's fine if you follow me when you fall down. I have cracked similar mechanisms before, so follow my instructions."
Liu Dongqing choked, looked a little afraid, and others couldn’t calm down. After all, such a cracking method didn’t sound so convincing. He was always playing drums in his heart, but after thinking about it, he experienced so many difficulties before. Now, this situation doesn't seem to be a big deal, so everyone quickly regained their aggressiveness.
A few minutes later, everyone, led by Qi Baye, stepped onto the first step of the east facing ladder, without incident.
Then came the third, fifth, seventh, and ninth steps, all of which were safe and sound. Before stepping on a step, the sliver would throw stones from the next step to ensure the safety of the next step.
When stepping carefully to the nineteenth step, I found that the last odd-numbered step was obviously several times higher than the other steps. This was obviously to make them step down and fall. The designer of this mechanism was really insidious.
Baye Qi was shocked and said, "Now there is still the last ladder left. This ladder must be jumped. We will count three times and jump up together. There can be no mistakes, you know?"
Tiaozi nodded, Liu Dongqing and Haizi hum, and then Qi Baye began to count down.
"Three, two, one! Jump!"
When Qi Baye gave an order, everyone took off at the same time. The stripe jumped to the finish line first, followed by Haizi and Qi Baye, but Liu Dongqing had an accident. Due to poor take-off strength, only the front half of the foot fell on the ground, and the center of gravity was unstable. , The whole person fell back. Fortunately, the strip reacted quickly. His right hand grabbed Liu Dongqing's collar and pulled him for life. If he were to fall on the even-numbered stairs, he would end up dead.
"What are you trying to do! Help!"
Tiaozi shouted to Qi Baye Haizi, and the two responded quickly and pulled Liu Dongqing back.
"His grandma's, it's such a useless thing, it can't jump well!"
Haizi directly cursed when Liu Dongqing escaped the danger, but Liu Dongqing didn't pay attention to him at all, and led the bronze prince to the sarcophagus in the center of the altar, with a sinister smile on his face.
"Finally! I'm finally here!" Liu Dongqing was ecstatic and pushed open the lid of the sarcophagus alone.
Tiaozi, Haizi Baye Qi also quickly came to the sarcophagus, and when he looked inside, his eyes widened.
Lying in the sarcophagus is a charred corpse, which looks like a male elder from the outside, wearing a golden brocade robe
Although the relationship has been covered with dust in the ages, it is still bright and beautiful, and the brocade robe is embroidered with clear pictures of gossip and Maoshan runes.
"This is a Taoist Maoshan Taoist! And the Taoism is extremely high!" Tiaozi recognized the fineness of this Taoist robe at a glance. Not only is the fabric of this robe rare, but the runes are the most difficult to understand. Generally, it is only at the head level or even higher. A high Taoist chief deserves to have such a Taoist robe, but why is a Maoshan Taoist buried in such a cemetery with many institutions? The notes are surprising and curious.
"Do you know who is in this coffin!?" Liu Dongqing asked, pointing to the mummy in the coffin.
"This is a Taoist from Maoshan. From the clothes point of view, he is a Taoist with a high level of knowledge!" Tiaozi replied quickly.
Liu Dongqing said coldly: "It's more than Gao, this is the only genius Taoist in the Ming Dynasty, great master Zhang Xuyou!"
Zhang Xuyou! Tiaozi was astonished. He would never have thought that the person in front of him was Master Zhang Xuyou, the author of "The Secret Techniques of Maoshan". Innumerable, the decades of his reign were the most powerful period of Taoism. His major disciples later created countless branches of Taoism, one of which was the one passed down by Tiao Zizu. To Tiaozi, this person is the sect of all laws!
After the surprise, Tiaozi suddenly felt something wrong. Why did Liu Dongqing know the identity of the tomb owner so clearly? Didn't they come to this tomb so surely for that bronze lord? The more Tiaozi thought about it, the more he felt that Liu Dongqing’s motives were not simple. He saw Liu Dongqing drew a golden dagger from his waist and cut through the palm of his hand without hesitation. He clenched his fist tightly, and the bright red blood came from between his fingers. The gap seeps out and flows into the bronze noble. What is he going to do
