The fat man was still very obedient. He stopped in a hurry and turned around to look at Ashue in confusion. "What's wrong, Ashue? Since we can't get out anyway, we might as well find our own way. Who said we have to follow its routine?"
That’s it!”
"What you said is true, but you can't go to the road of death!" Ashue walked over and pulled him over, then pointed to the darkness in the door and said: "Take a good look, inside.
What exactly is this place?"
The fat man shined a light on it, looked at it for a while and then shook his head: "No, I didn't see anything."
"That's it." Asue said, she picked up the fat man's willow shovel and stretched it into the darkness. It turned out that the left, right, top and bottom were empty. There was nothing else, but there was something wrong with the empty space down there.
The fat man's eyes widened. He walked over and carefully stretched out a leg to test it out. As expected, the lower part behind the door was empty. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat. If he had walked in just now, he would have probably fallen.
.
He quickly opened several other doors and took a look, but the results were the same. There were no rooms behind these doors at all, but nothing, and the surrounding area was completely empty.
The development of the matter was somewhat beyond their expectations. They originally wanted to avoid those ghost toads, but ended up being trapped here. Although they were temporarily out of danger, they were now feeling very uncomfortable like a bird in a cage.
matter.
They walked back along the original path, and as expected, the result was still the same. Not only did they not find the way out, they didn't even see the room they escaped from.
"What should we do? Axue, we are in a dead end now, or a completely closed dead end. There is absolutely no way out. Are we trapped here to death?"
Ashue's brows had never relaxed, but after hearing Fatty's words, her eyes couldn't help but light up and she said, "Fatty, have you ever played with a mouse?"
The fat man was stunned. This question was so confusing that he was completely confused. "Axue, what do you mean? Why did you ask this strange question?"
"Is it weird? This may be the key to whether we can get out." Ashue said, looking around constantly, and said: "I remember there was a pet rat that was kept in a cage. There was a wheel in the cage.
, put the mouse on the wheel, and it will keep running forward, but no matter how hard it runs, it will never reach the end, because the wheel is cyclic, and it will never reach the end."
The fat man is not stupid, and he understood after hearing this. "You mean we are like a mouse on a wheel now. No matter we go forward or backward, we will not reach the end, because in our
Is the wheel still spinning when you walk away?"
"Based on the situation we are currently facing, we can only have this explanation. After all, it is surrounded by wood. It is not impossible to create such a thing."
"Okay, if that's the case, how do we get out?"
"This wheel works the same both ways. It's probably the same even if you climb out of these doors to the other side. There's only one way to get out."
"What can I do?" Fatty asked anxiously.
Ashue didn't speak, just looked up.
"You mean above?"
"It should be the central axis above. In order for this wheel to rotate, it must have a central axis, and it must be in the air. There must be a frame to support the wheel at the central axis. We can only find a way from there.
.”
Three meters above was a flat wooden board. After some discussion, the two decided to cut through it directly. However, when they actually implemented it, they found that it was very difficult and there was no foothold. In addition, the wooden board above was too thick and they could not use their full strength.
Under the circumstances, it can't be smashed at all.
"It seems that we can only climb over from the outside." The fat man said dullly, walked to the door and stretched his head to look outside, but quickly retracted his head and kept shaking his head. "No, no, this is not possible.
There is no place to borrow strength outside, and there is no way to climb up."
After he finished the trouble, Ashue slowly stood up, moved his hands and feet, and said, "Let's go!"
"Let's go? Where to go?" The fat man looked at her blankly. At this time, Ashue already looked confident.
"Go straight, but it's not me who's walking, but you alone. Just keep moving forward and don't worry about anything else."
The fat man agreed in a daze, and then carried his things and walked forward along the passage. Five minutes passed, and ten minutes passed. When it was about twenty minutes, there was a loud "bang" above, and the thick
A big hole was opened in the wooden board, and Ashue's voice came from above: "Fat man, come up quickly."
The fat man stared blankly for a while, and finally understood. The two of them were walking in different directions, but the wheel could only turn in one direction. Naturally, the fat man's side, which was heavier, decided the direction of the wheel. In this way, Ashue
It will be slowly sent to the top, and the top and bottom will be reversed. It will be much easier to break the wooden board above it.
"Hehe, what a great idea! But I have also made a lot of contributions, Mr. Gua. Finally, Mr. Gua's incredible body has been put to real use."
The fat man climbed up along the entrance of the cave. There was another layer above, but it had been opened by Ashue. When they reached the innermost layer, they saw that they were surrounded by pillars made of branches, with a fixed center in the center.
There is a hole in the middle of a branch several meters thick, which should be the exit.
The two climbed in from the tree hole. The space inside was very small at first, and the space became larger as they went in. About ten minutes or so, they saw a shocking sight.
First, there is a section of treetop that is more than half a meter thick. It has dense branches, but there is not a single leaf. There is just a huge ball at the top of the treetop. However, this is not a tree ball formed by the branches, but a tree knot.
The fruit produced is two meters in diameter and green in color.
But this fruit has been carved into a hollow shape, and the pattern is very exquisite. Through the gap, you can see the scene inside. There is a copper pillar as thick as an arm that penetrates directly from the bottom of the fruit into the tree below, and behind the copper
On the top of the pillar lies a one-foot-long bronze dragon sculpture.
The two looked at each other, obviously shocked, and their attention was all attracted by the bronze dragon sculpture. The dragon sculpture was lifelike, very lifelike, and so exquisite, as if there was really a small dragon lying on the pillar.
.
"Ah, Ashue, do you think that thing is worth anything?" the fat man said in a trembling tone.
Ashue glanced at him and replied: "If you release it, people all over the world will come to hunt you down."
The fat man's body trembled and he took a deep breath, but he still couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes. It could be seen that he was very interested in it. "So, this thing is really a treasure? Hehe. Ashue.
, you see it has no use here, it can only bury its value, how about we get it out and restore its former glory. "
But Ashue shook her head and said, "I know what you are thinking, but I advise you not to do it."
"Why?" The fat man looked puzzled.
"Look at this fruit. Although it has been carved into a hollow shape, the gaps are so small that you can't even put your hand in. How do you think that thing was put in?"
"This..." The fat man scratched his head and was speechless.
"So, there must be some mystery in this. If any mechanism is triggered, both you and I will be miserable."
The fat man was obviously frightened. He kept rolling his eyes and was a little hesitant. However, it would be more uncomfortable to let an alcoholic see the wine and not let him drink it than to kill him. So, the fat man couldn't help it in the end.
He moved his hands, and secretly. When A Xue was not paying attention, he raised the willow shovel and smashed the fruit.
Not to mention, he really smashed the fruit open this time. After all, it was just a fruit, and its hardness was not as hard as the wood next to it. If he hadn't held back a little strength in the end, he would have smashed it completely with this one blow.
But now the fruit has been broken open with a hole of more than half a meter, which is enough for him to get in.
"Hey, Ashue, it's nothing. Look, I got it out of the way." The fat man said with a proud smile.
Next to you, A Xue's pretty face was livid with anger, saying, "Fat man, just commit evil. You dare to mess around with the things that the dragon chasers made. It seems that your little life is really too boring."
The fat man was stunned for a moment and said: "Dragon chaser? How do you know this is something made by the dragon chaser?"
"Hmph, have you forgotten the Tai Chi Fishing Immortal in the Tai Chi Tomb? There is also such a bronze dragon sculpture under the ghost coffin. It must have a special function. Do you think it can move around at will?"
The fat man's expression finally became solemn, and at this moment, the place where they were suddenly shook violently, and the bronze dragon sculpture and the copper pillar suddenly cracked, and then fell suddenly.
"Damn it, gone?" The fat man was dumbfounded. He subconsciously wanted to get in and take a look, but he was held back by Ashue. "Fat man, you don't want your life. We have to leave here quickly. It is estimated that this place will collapse soon."
If it's too late, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave even if I want to."
The two ran forward along the tree hole. It didn't take long for the tree hole to end. At this time, the surroundings were shaking even more violently. The fat man once again took on the role of coolie and smashed a big hole in the board above. Waiting for them to get through.
When they came out, they found that they were on the altar of the main hall they entered from the beginning. There must have been some mystery here, but they never discovered it.
Just when they escaped, the palace began to collapse. The fat man said with a look of fear on his face. The situation must have been very critical at that time, and they were lucky to escape.
