Chapter 538 The real meaning of the door of the dead
The second floor of an old house, study room.
Chi Feichi was standing in front of the bookshelf, talking to Koizumi Hongzi on the phone in a low voice.
"That's the pattern."
"I received the email... It's very similar, but it's not the one I drew before," Koizumi Anko said, "My pattern means hiding in red magic, and your pattern should be the Holy Spirit."
The door pattern…”
"Gate of the Holy Spirit?" Chi Feichi thought about it for a moment, "I only know a pattern from the Cthulhu mythology created by American Howard Philip Lovecraft, called the Gate of the Dead, which is similar to this
Somewhat similar."
"Hmm... wait a minute," Koizumi Hongzi hesitated for a long time, "The Gate of the Dead... I found it. The meaning explained on the Internet is the same as the Gate of the Holy Spirit. It has the meaning of protecting and resisting evil. It is also a
The entrance to the more ancient gods. When I use magic and need to rely on the power of dangerous gods such as Satan, I will prepare a Holy Spirit Gate. It is indeed an array to prevent being killed by cruel gods.
The Gate of the Dead was probably imitated by the creator from the legend of the Gate of the Holy Spirit. The painting method is wrong and it is of no use at all..."
"If you don't misinterpret the meaning, it's pretty good." Chi Feichi asked, "Is there really Satan?"
"Yes, do you want to meet? Then when you come back, I will summon you once, but it is just a projection, and the power of the projection is not much." Koizumi Anko seemed to be still browsing the web, "Speaking of misinterpretation...die
The Spirit Gate seems to have been regarded as a symbol of Satan and evil in recent years. This is obviously a symbol of resistance to evil..."
Chi Feichi sorted out his thoughts.
The owner of this house, that is, the murderer, read a few pages of books with the image of 'Gate of the Dead' scrawled across them. Then he searched and found a letter in the cracks of the bookshelf.
letter.
The main content of the letter is: My child, this is a house passed down from ancestors. Do not change its layout. You will make a magical discovery. When it is opened, you will receive God's blessing...
Yes, another message that seems to contain a treasure in the house.
I don’t know what’s going on in this world, but the ancestors seem to particularly like to play this kind of trick.
He walked around the house, and the layout, including some fixed furniture and furnishings, was very similar to the pattern of the Door of the Dead drawn in the book by the owner of the house.
In other words, the owner discovered the key to the house's hidden secrets.
The ancestors set up the layout of the house in the pattern of the Gate of the Dead, presumably to turn the house into a safe haven that can resist evil. However, the tragedy is that some people misinterpret the pattern, making the owner think that it represents
With evil or satanic patterns, you will never return on the path of pursuing evil...
Koizumi Hongzi listened to Chi Feichi's analysis and agreed, "Maybe that's the case. That's a pity. He didn't understand the meaning of his ancestors at all..."
"Master!" Feimo found Chi Feichi, jumped into the house, and looked at the room, "It's amazing. This study is just below the secret room, and also directly below the crime scene on the third floor..."
Chi Feichi turned to look at Feimo. He seemed to have found something more interesting than looking for Joshua. "Tell me more about the layout of the house."
Feimo began to talk about his findings.
The study on the second floor, the bedroom on the first floor, the crime scene on the third floor, and the secret room above the third floor are all in a straight line.
Chi Feichi restored the layout of the houses in his mind, "These houses are exactly at the center of the Gate of the Dead pattern..."
"The middle point?" Koizumi Anko was confused, "It's the middle of the outer circle? That means the end point."
"In other words, are there other important points?" Chi Feichi asked.
"I'm not sure about the Gate of the Dead, but this pattern is the same as the Gate of the Holy Spirit. It is composed of a circle, a five-pointed star, an inverted V-shaped pattern, and an overlapping 'and'-shaped pattern, but there are some details.
It’s different,” Koizumi Hongzi said, “For the Holy Spirit Gate, the center of the circle is the end point, and it is also where the Holy Spirit Gate opens and the projection of the gods appears. The starting point of V is the starting point, which is where people who rely on the power of gods should stand.
The place where the five-pointed star is used to stabilize, and the final landing point of 'you' is where the power is transmitted. In other words, the door only allows you to see the projection of the gods with the help of power, and the real power is transmitted from another point.
Came here..."
Chi Feichi turned around and went out.
As someone who doesn't study magic, I'm a little confused about the principle.
Feimo flapped his wings and flew over.
What? About Joshua?
How can those things be as interesting as watching the master solve puzzles and hunt for treasures?
Talk to you later!
"I don't know if the wrong pattern that was later changed to the Gate of the Dead still has this meaning," Koizumi Anko suggested enthusiastically, "Do you want to go and have a look? Go to the starting point of V
Take a look at where I started writing, as to which layer it is..."
"I'm already there. It should be on the first floor." Chi Feichi pressed the map restored in his mind and went downstairs to a room. "Look at the overlapping parts of the Gate of the Dead pattern. The order of drawing is circle, five-pointed star,
Also, V, a combination of four patterns. The three floors here plus the attic and the secret room are also four floors. If the secret room on the fourth floor corresponds to the end point in the middle of the circle, then the order of drawing should be reversed. The third floor
The layer represents the five-pointed star, the second layer is You, the first layer is V, and the starting point is on the first layer."
The destination was a storage room, where some sundries were placed against the wall and were covered with thick dust.
After Chi Feichi entered the door, he walked to the starting point corresponding to V, raised his hand to knock on the inner wall with his left hand, and stamped his feet as there was nothing unusual on the wall.
Click.
There was a slight sound underfoot.
It seems that you have found the right one.
However, are the ancestors of this family a bit difficult for future generations?
Based on the layout and furnishings of the house, it is not easy to discover the pattern of the Door of the Dead.
Who in today’s society knows that the starting point is where V begins?
If it weren't for Koizumi Anko, he wouldn't be able to find it, and he would probably think that the secret room in the middle of the pattern is everything.
…
Ten minutes ago, in the secret room.
The middle-aged man who didn't see Fei Mo looked away. Seeing that Joshua was still looking at the door in a daze, he frowned and said, "Joshua, what do you mean? I personally came to invite you to join my church. I have already given you a lot."
You lose face!"
After Joshua saw that the crow left, the pattern on the ground still did not respond, and he looked back in despair, "You don't understand."
The middle-aged man had a wave of curse words in his heart, and said angrily, "What?"
"I know him. The original owner of this house was the murderer who impaled two people." Joshua said slowly, "No, there should be three. The other one was when he went to Romania.
I have known him for more than twenty years, and he has always been a humble man. Until twelve years ago, when his parents passed away, he seemed to have changed into a different person and began to pursue the gifts from the devil..."
The middle-aged man endured his impatience.
Is this old man out of his mind?
Forget it, it's still early, and no one is here to look for me, so I might as well listen to a story.
"He no longer goes to church. He said that he should not believe in the Lord. His belief is in Satan and the devil," Joshua sighed. "I think he is crazy and I must save him."
"He doesn't need to be saved," the middle-aged man said, "it's you who should be saved."
Joshua ignored the man and continued to talk to himself, "He told me that he was destined to serve Satan. He became obsessed with vampire legends. He also talked about opening the door to the dead and praying for eternal life. Then
He killed someone and was shot dead by the police for resisting when he was arrested. People who used to live nearby found the church and asked me to come and pray for the souls who died tragically here so that they could join the kingdom of Jesus. After I came here,
Walking around the house, I discovered a secret. There is indeed a door to the dead in this house..."
The middle-aged man looked at the pattern of black and white bricks at the door, "I know!"
"No, you don't know!" Joshua's face was serious, with a hint of disdain.
He was not talking about the Door of the Dead pattern at the door, but the layout of the Door of the Dead in this house.
This stupid man has no idea that this secret room is in the middle of the layout of the Undead Door in the entire house. To be precise, the pattern of the Undead Door at the door of the secret room is in the middle of the large Undead Door that covers half of the house.
.
His friend had specially measured it at the beginning and was sure that it was the place where the Door to the Dead would be opened!
man:"……"
#～%@&/……!
Come on, talk about it!
Isn’t the pattern on the doorway the Gate of the Dead?
Joshua retorted, without looking at the man again, and continued, "This secret room is at the center of the Gate of the Dead. When I discovered this place, I also found the things he used to clean up the blood stains and carry the blood...
"
The middle-aged man couldn't help but look at the pile of debris in the corner. The dark brown stains on it were glaring.
"That's right, those are the marks left after the victim's blood dried up," Joshua said without raising his head, "But when I found this place, the case had been closed, and I didn't want anyone to come here again.
It bothered him and the souls of the two people he brutally killed, so he hid the affairs of this place. This time, my original belief abandoned me, and I am willing to throw myself into the darkness. Whether it is Satan or the devil, I am willing to sacrifice
My loyal faith..."
"That's why you should join my church," the middle-aged man couldn't help but say, "We are all devout believers of Satan!"
Joshua: "No, you're not!"
Middle-aged man: "..."
(;｀O′)o
"You don't even know Belial," Joshua said sadly, not caring about the man's blushing face. "My friend said back then, 'When the door of the dead opens, you will gain the power of God.
Granted', I discovered that the pattern on the door of this secret room was the Gate of the Dead, and I had always treated it as an evil thing. When I wanted to open it, I found that I, like him, could not open the secret here. I think I probably need
Prepare some sacrifices..."
In the middle of the door pattern, Chi Feichi slowly rises from below: "..."
This is a terminal, how to open it?
The storage room on the first floor is the starting point, which is the entrance. After activating the mechanism, if you stand without moving, the plates under your feet will be automatically carried away by the mechanism.
While going up, there were many gold nuggets placed along the way. Based on the height of the rise he felt, the place where the gold nuggets were accumulated was probably on the second floor, which was in line with the power meaning represented by the corresponding 'you' pattern.
There is nothing on the third floor. It probably exists to stabilize the second floor and take over the secret room on the fourth floor, which is also in line with the stable meaning of the corresponding 'pentagonal star'.
The fourth floor is the end point, the exit, which means the end point corresponding to the middle of the 'circle'.
The design is interesting, but this mechanism should not be able to operate in reverse, and cannot return from the exit to the entrance.
This also leads to... it is very embarrassing for future generations.
No matter how many sacrifices there are, if you find the wrong entrance, you still can't open it.
