Qixie's voice made everyone stop. Everyone felt a chill behind their backs. How could they not know that something was wrong? They all felt strange, but they just couldn't control their legs. They seemed not to move forward.
When I saw that yellow sign, I felt very uncomfortable, just like a pilgrim who couldn't control his legs and could only move forward blindly until he reached the pilgrimage site.
"We really can't go any further, these yellow marks are very strange," Bai Yi said.
Qixie squatted down, put his nose to the yellow mark and smelled: "There is ecstasy grass in it." This herb is something Qixie is very familiar with. This grass is a kind of seven-leaf clover found in the deep mountains of Changbai Mountain, which can cause
A person can become comatose, but a large amount is required. A small amount of Ecstasy will make a person confused and lose the ability to judge. Just like everyone just now, they are very clear in their hearts, but they just can't control their actions. In fact, if they stop, that's it.
Simple.
Qixie said: "Each of us has to rub our eyes until tears come out. Tears can break this seven-leaf clover. Hurry up, we haven't been hit deeply yet, and we still have time."
Everyone rubbed and pressed their hands until they were in tears. The tears flowed out. In the blink of an eye, everyone broke out in sweat. There was a dead end three meters away in front. If you kept crossing it,
, will fall down, Leizi has quick feet,
He had already run over to see what was going on. He took a look and saw that the bottom was covered with iron nails, each with a sharp end pointing upwards and shining cold light. Lei Zi spat at the bottom: "My
Mom, if we go any further, we will become a sieve of blood."
Bai Yi took a breath of air and asked Qi Xie why he warned just now, because everyone was in the same situation. Qi Xie then explained that he had always had a suspicion in his heart, or he just couldn't control his legs.
, just like being trapped in a net, trying hard to break free but unable to make it, feeling very uncomfortable in my heart. However, the Yu people are indifferent by nature and are more likely to hallucinate their friends. Qixie just refreshed himself slightly and stopped himself. Then he clicked.
Wake up others.
Those yellow marks all looked like deer heads. When Bai Yi turned around, he discovered that there was a double fork behind him. One of them went in the other direction, but this one was full of traps. It seemed that everyone had suffered.
The temptation is heading towards the road of death, Bai Yi said: "This kind of
The mechanism is very similar to the lost soul-hanging ladder. The hanging soul ladder is used to confuse people and cause people to have illusions and prevent them from finding the right direction. The same goes for these yellow marks, which confuse our minds and make us go in the wrong direction.
March forward and arrive in front of the arranged trap."
Lei Zi said: "It seems we need to turn back."
Everyone walked back to the fork just now. Another tomb passage formed a 45-degree angle with this tomb passage and extended in the other direction. Lei Zi first looked at it to make sure there were no more yellow marks.
After stepping on it, everyone walked forward not far when they saw a wall in front of them. On the wall was a standing chess board with black and white stone chess pieces stuck on it.
, this is an endgame.
Bai Yi looked at the chess piece on it and saw that it was not made of ordinary stone. This kind of stone is called lapis lazuli. This lapis lazuli is one of the seven treasures of Buddhism. In ancient times, it was called Zhulin, Jinjing, and Jinyu.
Indigo, etc. It is called Venuli or Bi Liuli in Buddhism. In ancient Egypt thousands of years ago, lapis lazuli was as valuable as gold. In ancient India,
In countries such as Iran, lapis lazuli, turquoise, and coral are all precious jade varieties. In ancient Greece and Rome, wearing lapis lazuli was considered a sign of wealth. Because its color is like the sky, lapis lazuli is also called imperial blue, which is very popular.
Favored by ancient emperors and often buried in tombs, it is not surprising that lapis lazuli chess pieces appear in this underground palace.
Liu Zhixi went to get the chess piece on it. The chess piece was stuck very tightly and did not move at all. Bai Yi saw the mystery. The chess piece was not something that could be taken, but it could slide on the chessboard on the wall and reach its position. "Could it be that
You have to solve this incomplete chess game before you can enter?"
The chess pieces are placed at the intersection. The middle part, that is, the blank area with no vertical lines between the fifth and sixth horizontal lines of the chessboard is called the "river boundary". In the middle of the chessboard are written "Chu River" and "Han"
The word "boundary" refers to the chess game comparing the Chu-Han war in history.
According to historical records, the Chu-Han border was in the ancient Xingyang and Chenggao areas. It was bordered by the Yellow River to the north, Mang Mountain to the west, plains to the east, and Songshan Mountain to the south. It was a battlefield where military strategists of all ages mobilized troops. In 203 BC, Liu Bang sent troops to attack
In the Chu State, Xiang Yu was short of food and troops, so he was forced to put forward the requirement of "dividing the world in the middle and cutting the divide to the west for Han and to the east for Chu. From then on, there was
It is said that the Chu River and the Han Dynasty are said to have existed. To this day, there are still two ancient city ruins facing each other on Guangwu Mountain in Xingyang. The one in the west is called Hanwang City and the one in the east is called Bawang City. Legend has it that Liu Bang and Xiang Yu built the two cities.
In the middle, there is a large ditch about 300 meters wide. This is what people usually call the divide, and it is also the basis for the boundary river marked on the chessboard.
The middle of the two ends, that is, the square part between the fourth and sixth vertical lines at the two ends, where the diagonal cross lines form a square with the word "meter", is called the Nine Palaces, which symbolizes the Chinese military tent.
The entire chessboard is divided into two equal parts by the river boundary. For the convenience of game records and study of chess records, the current rules stipulate that each vertical line of the red side is represented by nine vertical lines from right to left, using Chinese numerals one to nine, and Arabic numerals.
Numbers 1 to 9 represent each vertical line of Black. Your own chess pieces always use your own line number, regardless of whether the chess piece crosses the river or not.
Before the game starts, the red and black sides should place the chess pieces in the prescribed positions. Every time any chess piece takes a step, it will be written as advance, and if it retreats, it will be written as retreat. If it moves sideways like a rook, it will be written as draw.
"My dear, you are really shocked. You actually tested your intelligence." Lei Zi pushed Liu Zhixi, who was in a daze, and said, "Liu is stunned, it's your turn to show off."
Liu Zhixi's face turned red: "Me? I'm only good at playing Go, this is chess!"
Bai Yi himself was not sure. Like Liu Zhixi, he was good at Go. He only learned an introductory step in chess. This was the endgame. Solving the endgame in chess requires more technical content. Bai Yi asked the other people: "How are you doing?"
?”
Xiao Ning bit her lip: "Let me try it."
Xiao Ning was still very weak, so Tang Sancheng said, "You tell me, I'll move the chess piece."
This was a good idea. Xiao Ning commanded Tang Sancheng to stand up: "Pao six draws five elephants and five retreats seven, Shi six retreats five generals five draws and four, Shi five advances four elephants three retreats one 26. Pao five draws six generals four draws and five...
