A few brothers who were mad by this place had long been hurriedly asked if they saw something.
According to Chi Jian's explanation, the bone pit in the sky and earth they were in was somewhat similar to a whirlpool or a prayer wheel. This vertical pit was actually divided into upper and lower parts, which rotated in opposite directions.
So when they seemed to be climbing up the road to heaven, they were actually being carried backwards by the prayer wheel.
When they walked backwards and went down, they were actually carried backwards and upwards by the prayer wheel.
It seems like you are going up, but the reality is that you are going down.
It looks like it is going down, but the truth is that it is always going up.
In addition, the rock walls here absorb light, and it is easy to overlook the details, as well as the hypnotic effect of the hanging coffins on all sides, which constantly numbs people, weakens people's reaction and thinking ability, and confuses people's sense of up and down direction, so this causes them
An illusion. This abyss pit has no end at the top and is infinitely long at the bottom.
This is indeed an ingenious trap used to trap people, and it is an ingenious mechanism that is constantly rotating.
It’s not some underground palace that comes alive to cover the eyes of ghosts.
If you want to prove the idea of sharpening a sword, there is actually an answer from the beginning, and that answer comes from the voice of Xu Anping.
When they heard the sound behind them and descended to the bottom of the pit, Xu Anping's shouts turned into going in opposite directions above their heads; when they climbed back up, Xu Anping's shouts once again turned into going in opposite directions into the deep pit below.
No matter how hard they try, they always run counter to the outside world and can never reach the end.
This is an infinite cycle.
Hearing this, Jin An immediately understood the truth. Isn't this the principle of elevators?
Jin An laughed loudly and praised Xiejian: "Disciple, you are so powerful. I never thought you knew Qimen Dunjia secretly."
At this time, even the old Taoist priest was impressed and praised Jiajian for being so awesome. This time he refused to accept his old age. Jiajian's attainments in Qimen Dunjia were definitely higher than his.
Sharpening the sword was not arrogant. His face, which looked like a living person or a dead person, was still looking at the dark space around him dully: "I don't know why I suddenly recalled this, as if it was in my mind."
As expected of a thief, even after being seriously injured and losing his memory, he could still instinctively find a way to break the situation. Jin An comforted Xi Jian and told him to take his time to restore his memory and not to rush, so as not to cause any irreversible damage to the brain.
Jin An discovered that without realizing it, the old Taoist priest and the sharp sword seemed to have become his lucky stars, taking him all the way through. Otherwise, with the three-legged cat Feng Shui skills he had just started to learn, he would never have been able to penetrate deep into the underground palace.
Then, he thought deeply: "Now that we have understood the Qimen Dunjia principle of this pothole, we should find out the upper and lower limits of this prayer wheel."
“There must be a length limit between the two, and there must be a platform for switching between them. If you find that platform and find a way to break through, you can successfully escape.”
This is like the head and feet of two ladders, one up and one down. Each one must have a platform for people to stand safely. This platform is the hanging coffin on all sides, but it is deeply hidden by the Yin Escape Technique of Feng Shui and psychological hypnosis.
Now they must break through these two situations and find the two most critical hanging coffins.
The old Taoist priest immediately said excitedly: "'Nine extremes, ten is the original void', 'The great road is fifty, Tianyan is forty-nine, escape one of them', little brother, do you still remember that five-color earth pagoda?"
"If the immortal from thousands of years ago had predicted us today, he must have left us a glimmer of hope. I think these two sentences must be the clues left for us."
"Everything is determined by destiny. Just like our divination skills, we cannot reveal the secrets of heaven, otherwise the secrets of heaven will turn into murderous intent and lead to our own destruction. That senior certainly cannot reveal the secrets of heaven to us, so he can only use subtle methods to leave us a glimmer of hope.
, but this obscure method cannot be too difficult to guess, it must be something we can guess.”
“So I think the first two sentences must be the key.”
Let alone talk about it, after thinking about it carefully, everyone present felt that the old Taoist priest's analysis was reasonable, and everyone surprisingly unanimously agreed with the old Taoist priest's statement.
"Master, it should be ninety-nine feet." At this moment, Chi Jian suddenly spoke.
Chi Jian explained that he had calculated the distance, and every time he had to go about ninety feet before he could hear Daochang Xu's shout.
“Jiujiuguiyi, this matter has come to an end!” the old Taoist priest shouted with joy.
Since finding a way out of trouble, the morale of the team has become full of fighting spirit again. Then everyone started to break the game of Qimen Dunjia without any further delay.
Thanks to the old Taoist priest, he had everything in his Tai Chi Bagua bag, including the ink line that he had used to kill corpses several times during his years as a wandering Taoist priest.
They can just use this ink fountain line to locate the specific distance.
Next, Jin An took the ink pipe thread handed to him by the old Taoist priest. After calculating the length of ninety-nine feet in advance, he tied one end of the hanging coffin so that he could retract the thread with a hard pull, and shook the other end.
Hold the wheel in your hand and start to turn the wheel. While letting the long line go to the bottom of the pit, pay attention to the length of the ink fountain line to determine the distance.
Going back and forth three times, after sharpening the sword and listening for the sound, I finally located the hanging coffin with the clearest sound.
At this time, no one cared about why only the sword-sharpening person could hear external sounds. Both Jin An and the old Taoist priest thought it had something to do with the special physique of the person who was cutting the sword-sharpening corpse.
Corpse collectors naturally walk between the dead and darkness. The darker the world, the more acute the five senses.
As for the Wu brothers, Old Man Qi and the others, ever since they were forced to listen to Jin An's daily short story, they kept their mouths shut all the way, fearing that Jin An would really leave them alone.
This time, they no longer paid attention to the faint shouts of Xu Anping behind them. Now that they had found where the upper and lower limits of the rotating drum were, they could just focus on solving the game in front of them.
“You all stand aside and let me draw my bow to test the way forward.” Jin An bent his bow and set an arrow. There was no arrow on the bowstring, only a divine treasure that radiated divine light.
At this time, in order to find a way out, we can only endure the physical pain and sacrifice the divine treasure.
Buzz!
With a loosening of his fingers, the divine treasure on the bow string was quickly shot out.
咻!
Unexpectedly, Jin An just shot the divine treasure forward, and it flew back quickly without losing speed. He raised his arm to catch the divine light that flew back from the original path.
Bang, the tiger's palm shook with pain, and the stone bow was so powerful that even if the arrows shot were not sharp arrows, his arm would be sore from the shock.
“Sure enough, this place is like an endless cycle of escape. Going up is going down, and going down is going up. We are always going in the opposite direction.” Old Qi and the others felt refreshed and felt that they had finally found a way out.
Subsequently, Jin An tried to bend his bow and set an arrow a few more times, but each time the divine light shot out would instantly return to the original path.
After a few attempts, he started to frown.
“It’s too early to be happy to say this now.” Jin An squinted his eyes, trying to see clearly the dark world ahead, his brows frowning more and more.
"What, what do you mean?" Old Qi and the others' voices were trembling, their eyes were frightened, and they looked expectantly at Jin An, who was constantly trying to shoot arrows.
"Let me ask you, we are walking on iron chains with our feet on hanging coffins. We are affected by Qimen Dunjia and always fall back. Do the things I shoot out with my stone bow have feet? They fly out and fly back in the same direction. This
What does it mean?"
Jin An’s voice became deeper and deeper as he spoke, as if he was thinking of countermeasures.
After thinking for a moment, he continued: "This shows that there is a strange space in front of us, like the last latch of Qimen Dunjia, just in case."
Hearing this, the old Taoist priest murmured to himself: "Isn't this so close to the end of the world..."
At this moment, the girls sharpened their swords and the red jade girls all turned their heads to look to the right. There was a dark area, but according to common sense, there were solid rock walls with no way to go on both sides.
Suddenly.
Jin An seemed to notice something, and he also turned his head to look to the right.
“Do you still remember that I once said that only the dead are the most sensitive to the dead?” The first person to speak was the Hongyu girl.
“Actually, the dead are also most sensitive to the yang energy in the living. Well, it is an uncomfortable feeling like the dazzling yang fire.”
“The longer we stay here, the more uncomfortable the feeling becomes. It seems that our idea of looking for a way out is right. This is the weakest point of the entire Qimen Dunjia Bureau.”
She looked at him with the same look of corpse and death. At the same time, he looked at the sharp sword in the right direction, with no expression of surprise on his face.
What surprised her the most was Jin An.
Unexpectedly, Jin An could also feel the gaze of a living person.
In her eyes.
Jin An is obviously a living person.
The yang fire in her body was so strong that even a dead person like her felt uncomfortable, and she deliberately stood far away from the beginning to the end.
Seemingly seeing the confusion in Miss Hongyu's eyes, the old Taoist priest who was the talkative said cheerfully: "Miss Hongyu, you don't understand our little brother, hey, my little brother has always been extremely strong.
His ability is to kill anyone he stares at, and his eyes can see through evil people with evil intentions."
The old Taoist priest smiled and boasted proudly.
Then, the team began to move laterally. When they were groping in the dark and approaching the light-absorbing rock wall, they finally saw a beam of light. Not far from their feet was the entrance to the crack where they first entered the pit. Standing at the entrance were three people.
He kept looking into the dark pit, as if he was debating whether to enter.
They have been struggling for so long, and now they are back to the starting point.
But at this time, the few people could not control so much. They finally found the gap, and they all jumped out of the gap as if they were reborn. The three people standing at the entrance of the gap were Xu Anping, the monk Qianshi, and a strange old man who had been separated before.
, and outsiders discovered the secrets under the deep valley, and followed the vines they left outside to enter the underground palace.
Looking at the old man with a strange face, Jin An always felt that he was very familiar. When he thought about it carefully, he couldn't help but feel happy. Isn't this the old man Ku Zhu?
He has fought against the opponent once, so he is familiar with the aura that occasionally leaks from his body. Could it be that the evil gaze he just felt came from Old Man Kuzhu? Did the opponent also recognize him?
Jin An pretended not to recognize the old man Ku Zhu, clasped his fists towards Xu Anping and said gratefully: "Fellow Daoist Xu, we were able to get out of trouble this time, thanks to your persistence in calling us, so that we could successfully find a way to break the situation."
Xu Anping still has a skin as warm as jade, a clean Taoist robe, and an air of elegance like an immortal descending to earth. It seems that his pursuit of Xiao Jingming and the topsy-turvy world of yin and yang last night did not pose a threat to him.
Xu Anping also showed joy when meeting old friends.
But after hearing Jin An's words, Xu Anping looked confused: "What are you calling me?"
Well.
Jin An's other words suddenly stopped, and he frowned: "Weren't you Daoist Xu just now calling us?"
He turned his head and looked to the side to sharpen his sword.
At this time, Xiu Jian had already put down the old Taoist priest. Xiu Jian said with certainty: "Master, it is indeed Taoist Master Xu who is calling us. I will not hear you wrong."
However, Jin An no longer listened to what Xi Jian said because he was shocked to find that the number of people in the team was wrong: "Old man Qi who has been following us, where are the Wu brothers?"
“Miss Hongyu, aren’t the three of them walking together with you?”
Jin An looked at the red jade girl standing alone.
The Hongyu girl was stunned for a moment, and her expression changed. The next moment, Jin An, Chi Sword, and the Hongyu girl ran to the edge of the cliff and looked into the hole. However, it was pitch black inside and they couldn't see far at all.
