"You three, don't move here, hold the rope, I'll go down and take a look."
He is the only one with the strongest ability here. Hu Ming took the initiative to take over the adventure. At this time, Hu Ming also thought of a mechanism in the original work, but he still had to investigate it.
Now I took the rope and walked slowly down. The stone steps seemed endless. Fortunately, the ropes for several people were long enough to go a long way.
As soon as Hu Ming left, Da Jinya felt a chill coming over him and a ghostly spirit.
Hu Ming's magical power has been deeply imprinted in his heart.
With Hu Ming by his side, Da Jinya always felt that there was nothing he could not overcome. Whatever situation he encountered, he would definitely be able to solve it.
But as soon as Hu Ming left, he immediately felt himself trembling.
Hu Bayi and Fatty were also very nervous. They anxiously looked at the rope on the ground and lowered it round and round.
"Lao Hu, these ropes should be long enough, right?" the fat man asked anxiously.
Hu Bayi shook his head when he heard this, and then said helplessly: "Who knows? I can only let Mingzi try it, it is better than waiting to die here."
Hu Ming was walking forward when he suddenly saw a little light appearing in front of him.
At this glance, I was stunned. Behind the shadowy light, there were three figures, and they were Hu Bayi, Fatty and Da Jinya.
I walked around holding the rope, and unexpectedly returned to the same place.
The three people were still looking down, but Hu Ming had already walked over.
"Okay, stop looking, I'm back."
They did not expect that Hu Ming, who was clearly going down, would reach above them, and they were shocked.
Da Jinya staggered even more, his body was unsteady and he rolled down the stone staircase.
Fortunately, Hu Ming's reaction was very quick, and his shot was like lightning. He immediately leaped forward and reached out to grab him tightly.
"Come on, Mingzi, this is really a ghost. You obviously went down, but why did you go back up?"
Having been trapped in this place for a long time, Fatty felt hungry and tired, almost exhausted.
Seeing Hu Ming come back, the last bit of hope in my heart was shattered.
When he thought that he and others would die trapped here, Fatty's face became extremely ugly.
"It seems that we really can't get out." Da Jinya felt desperate.
It’s so weird here. Even if you hold the rope and go down, you will unknowingly return to the top. It’s completely incomprehensible.
Hu Ming's expression was very calm, while Hu Bayi on the side was also thoughtful when he saw this.
"Don't worry, I've found a way to crack it."
When the fat man heard this, he was overjoyed and asked quickly.
"Mingzi, how can you get out of here?" Several other people also looked over. After being trapped for so long, everyone was looking forward to getting out.
When they heard that Hu Ming had a solution, everyone immediately became excited.
"We didn't encounter any evil spirits." Hu Ming was very sure.
"Master Ming, we didn't encounter any ghosts, what's the reason?" Da Jinya asked puzzledly.
The fat man also interrupted.
"Yes, this place is quite evil. I would rather have a few black and white monsters jump out of this tomb and have a fight with them than be trapped here in a daze."
"This should be the legendary hanging soul ladder." It was obviously the first time that Fatty heard this name.
"What is the Hanging Soul Ladder?"
"What, this is the Suspended Soul Staircase?" Hu Bayi asked in surprise. Hu Bayi knew a lot about the Suspended Soul Staircase, but he had never thought about it just now, and it was also the first time he had encountered such a situation.
, naturally a little at a loss!
"Old Hu, you also know?", the fat man looked at Hu Bayi aside and raised his eyebrows.
Hu Bayi nodded with a wry smile and then looked at Hu Ming and said, "Mingzi, you should be talking about the weird mechanism designed by Yi Shu in ancient times?"
"Yes! Why didn't I remember it?"
"Fortunately, I have been studying the Book of Changes since I came back from Jingjue Ancient City."
"I also read the introduction of this hanging soul ladder from the old man's "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique"!"
Hu Bayi patted his head in annoyance.
"That's right, this Hanging Soul Ladder is, to put it bluntly, based on Yi Shu."
"Using the changes in the height difference, we use special reference objects to make people circle around in a closed circle."
"In addition, the steps are coated with a light-absorbing secret material, so people can only see within a limited range, making it difficult to detect the mystery."
Hu Ming nodded and said softly.
After a few people knew that this was a mechanism, they sat on the stone steps, drank water and rested.
"I remembered it too!"
"I once handled an ancient book, which was full of various secret mechanisms, including this Soul Suspended Ladder!"
Da Jinya also remembered that the hanging soul ladder mentioned in the book is their current situation.
"After that, did you tell me how to crack it?
"I'm not interested in this, so I'll sell it!"
"Then you didn't say anything! You only introduced this broken ladder! You didn't say how to break this mechanism!", the fat man shouted helplessly.
Hu Bayi glanced at the fat man helplessly, and then said: "Have you forgotten that I just said that the Suspended Soul Ladder is a mechanism deduced by Zhou Yi?"
"Oh, so what", the fat man scratched his head and looked at Hu Bayi, not understanding why he said that.
But Da Jinya said excitedly: "Master Hu, you mean that if you want to break this mechanism, you have to find a way from the Book of Changes. I remember Master Hu, you and Master Ming both understand the Book of Changes!"
Hu Ba glanced at Hu Ming, who was staring at the crescent-shaped sign on the stairs. He nodded and said, "Me and Mingzi are both good at it. Let's see if we can break it in a while."
"Ah... I think I already know how to get out." Hu Ming threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, stood up, and said with a smile.
It’s the right time to smoke, and I’ve had enough rest. It’s time to go out.
"Let's go, follow me!"
"The road to life is not in front of us, but right under our feet."
"I just walked through it and noticed that there are a total of 384 stone steps here." Hu Ming explained as he walked and counted the steps under his feet.

Hu Bayi nodded when he heard this and said: "Three hundred and eighty-four...this is the number of gossip!"
"Yes! Tai Chi generates two yin, two yin generates four images, and four images generates Bagua."
"These eight trigrams interact with each other, and there are sixty-four hexagrams, each with six lines, for a total of three hundred and eighty-four lines!"
"It just corresponds to the three hundred and eighty-four stone steps, and each step has subtle changes in light and darkness. Dark colors are yang and light colors are yin."
Hu Ming explained in detail: "Taking the crescent moon symbol as the starting point, each of these 384 steps is a hexagram."
"As long as we find the correct hexagram, we can go out."
"Mingzi, could it be the trapped hexagram that alludes to our current situation?"
"Kun Gua Ninth Five is the ninety-fifth step."
"Kun Gua Shang Dui Xia Kan, the fifth line is the Yang Yao. If the Yang Yao changes to Yin text, the Kuang Hexagram will also become the Jie Gua!"
As Hu Ming explained, Hu Bayi couldn't help but become more and more excited. He could feel that the opportunity to break this mechanism was not far away.
At this time, they had reached the ninety-fifth step.
"But Mingzi, counting three steps back from here, it's Cui Gua. Cui Gua also means survival."
When he got here, Hu Bayi counted the steps nearby and couldn't help but said worriedly.
"No, it's the sleepy hexagram!"
"My intuition tells me that Sleeping Gua is our way out!" Hu Ming grinned.
When he reached the steps that represented the hexagram of sleepiness, Hu Ming had the idea of jumping down. The intuition of invincibility told him that this is the way out!
With that said, before Hu Bayi and the others could react, Hu Ming had already jumped down!
"Mingzi!" "Mingye!"
The three people exclaimed. The jump was so sudden that they didn't react at all.
If something goes wrong, there is a bottomless abyss below. If you jump down, you will be completely shattered!
"No, why did Mr. Ming jump in without hesitation?"
Da Jinya stared blankly at the dark space below, unable to recover.
"Stop inking and come down! There is a way to survive at the bottom!" At this time, Hu Ming's faint voice came from the darkness.
