"As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, and who do you think this monster can associate with?" Xu Qian echoed me.
"It's a good saying that birds of a feather flock together. I want to see what kind of gang of minotaurs this snake-headed succubus hired to look after her home and home."
"Don't worry, you'll see it soon." Xu Qian said with a smile, "Or if I give you this opportunity, you will take the lead?"
"Okay." I nodded. At this time, apart from a fig leaf, I only had the bag on my back. I took out the pocket compass again, ready to show off my skills.
There is not much equipment in the bag. In addition to the pocket compass that has been inseparable for 365 days, I also prepared two candles, because when I prepared the things before, I had some expectations that we would go to some places where we could not reach our fingertips. At that time
, if the flashlight loses its effectiveness, a candle is needed.
Since ancient times, the rule of "don't touch gold when the rooster crows" has been circulated in the gold-touching community. It is said that when entering the tomb, the candle should be placed in the southeast corner. If the candle goes out or the rooster crows before dawn, then you must quickly
Exit the tomb quickly, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
When it comes to Mojin Colonel, Da Di, as a direct descendant of Mojin, naturally knows as much as I do. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, in order to make up for the lack of military pay, Cao Cao established military ranks such as Faqiu Zhonglang General and Mojin Colonel.
Si robs tombs to collect materials to supplement military use.
When I took out two candles, my backpack suddenly became deflated. Since I came to the ghost cave, I have lost all the things I prepared. There are very few things that can be used. Among them, these candles occupy the most space.
, holding the backpack, I couldn't help but sigh.
The only thing that has some lethality now is my flying knives, but after all, the flying knives are not daggers, they are inconvenient to use, and they will not last long. Of course, except for the flying knives given by Sister Fo, in fact, this set of flying knives
, there are also some exquisite patterns imprinted on it, and it is very sharp and very strong. Naturally, I am reluctant to use it, and I will not use it unless I have to.
When Da Di saw me taking out the candle, her eyes lit up and she said with a smile: "Lin Kun, it seems that you are planning to do whatever you want to do. You are very disciplined and have a good way. I think you are very talented. Why don't you follow me and I will lead you?"
How about you get started and become my disciple?"
"I guess this won't work. If I call you master, wouldn't it mess up the hierarchy?" I gave her a wink, "If you were Xiao Longnu and I were Yang Guo, I would definitely consider it carefully!"
"Get out!" When Dadi heard this, she refused without even thinking, "What a beautiful idea!"
Sister Meng chuckled and said: "Lin Kun, you damn ghost, you are still trying to take advantage of us at this time. Xiao Longnu and Yang Guo are both here, so you are so ashamed!"
"That's right, this bad boy is quite unreliable. I really misjudged him. I don't know what bad luck caused me to follow him!" Dadi followed Sister Meng and added insult to injury.
I laughed, didn't take it seriously, and said: "Ladies, is it really okay for you to harm your husbands like this? If I get angry with you, you will have to stay alone in the empty room from now on."
"I guess he must have itchy skin." Xu Qian said cheerfully, "It just needs to be taken care of."
"Oh, what Xiaoqian said is right. It's been a long time since I took care of myself. It's time to rein in his muscles and bones to prevent him from getting carried away and harming good women from outside!" Sister Meng started to roll up her sleeves as she spoke.
The earth wants to take care of me.
I pretended to be scared and quickly begged: "Sister Haomeng, please don't be angry. I'm just joking. Give me the guts, I don't dare to mess around."
"Haha, does it mean that if I give you a hundred courages, you will dare?"
"You are trying to get ahead of yourself."
"Oh, I just jumped into the trap." Dadi sneered, "I finally opened my mouth to accept a disciple, and you still refuse. You are very courageous."
I shook my head and was busy laughing, thinking that this Da Di had just been hanging out with Sister Meng for such a period of time, and she already understood the essence of Sister Meng. She was really good at hurting people, and she was not at all like the person I met when I first met her.
That kindhearted and gentle Da Di.
"Dadi, I was joking, don't mind!"
"Okay, don't say so many useless things. Light the candles quickly. I want to see what tricks you can come up with."
"Dadi, you are truly a true descendant of gold-touching. What you said is really to the point. First of all, I want to place them in this crystal palace in a row of seven stars, and then..."
Before I finished speaking, I saw Dadi shaking her head and saying: "Okay, okay, if you don't understand, don't pretend to be a big-tailed wolf. Now you only have two candles, how can you have so many lights!"
I lowered my head and looked at the two candles in my hands, and exclaimed: "Uh... this..."
Sister Meng and Xu Qian looked at each other, smiled, and laughed at me maliciously.
"Dadi, just show your skills to this bastard and let him know what it means to be someone outside the world, and there is a world outside the world!" Sister Meng said.
Da Di nodded and said: "It is said that people light candles and ghosts blow out lamps. Today I will show you how to touch Colonel Jin!"
Originally, it was not a shame to be defeated at the hands of my own woman, not to mention that Da Di was a serious gold-hunting captain, so naturally my three-legged skills were not worthy of publicity. So, I opened my eyes wide.
With his eyes, he watched Da Di resorting to touching Colonel Jin.
"There are only two candles now, what should I do? How about I get some smelly candles?"
"There's something wrong with those candles, don't touch them!" Xu Qian stopped them.
"That's right, these candles will never go out all the year round. After I light them, I'm afraid the ghost won't be able to blow them out!" I laughed and made another joke.
"Two candles are enough, you can try the Light Locking Technique!" Dadi said, without any influence from me.
"Light Locking Technique? This is a new term." Although I don't know what it means specifically, it sounds very powerful.
"Stop talking!" Sister Meng glared at me, "Learn more!"
I quickly covered my mouth. At this time, I realized that I could no longer waste time. After all, the hanging coffins had already stopped in mid-air, giving me a quite shocking visual effect.
This purple crystal palace is very large. At a glance, it is empty and eerie. There is no way out. There may be a way out, but it will take a certain amount of time to find the next mechanism.
Furthermore, since these hanging coffins have appeared, we cannot really ignore them. If there are zongzi in them, we must solve them. Otherwise, if the zongzi gets angry, the situation will be even more passive. Instead of just sitting there and waiting for death,
It's better to take the initiative.
Different from the hanging coffins I encountered in the Yunhe Tomb last time, there are more hanging coffins in front of me, and there are other mysteries in them. The last time I encountered the hanging coffins in the Yunhe Tomb
What is locked in the coffin suspended by the iron ropes in the middle is the headless general, who can turn into a nine-headed python, which makes people feel chills down their spines. Now that I think about it, I still feel a little intimidated.
It was precisely because of this fear that I didn't dare to be careless at all. Without thinking too much, I quickly lit the candles according to Dadi's instructions, and then Dadi began to place the candles. The Amethyst Palace was amazingly big, even when walking around
One lap is estimated to take more than ten minutes. Dadi needs to determine the position of the candle at all times. After all, it cannot be placed randomly, so this process is very time-consuming.
However, I originally thought that Dadi would only use two candles to perform some kind of "Light Locking Technique", but the fact was not what I expected. The so-called "Light Locking Technique" that Dadi arranged did not actually use two candles.
Done. When I thought about it carefully later, I realized that my thinking was too naive. After all, two points form a line. No matter how you place it, it is just a straight line.
I saw Dadi walking back and forth in the Crystal Palace holding a candle, constantly adjusting her pace. The candle in her hand was not held parallel, but was deliberately held at an angle to allow the melted candle oil inside to drip down.
"Sister Meng, do you know what Dadi is doing?" I asked Sister Meng who was standing aside.
Sister Meng was thoughtful, but she shook her head and said, "I don't quite understand either."
"This is a series of seven stars."
"Seven stars in a row?" I asked in surprise.
Xu Qian's level of mathematics, physics and chemistry is quite high, which I have already learned. She has a very keen judgment on graphics, so she can clearly understand every step Dadi takes, as well as the trajectory of the wax beads, and what it looks like in the end.
graphics.
I have to admire Dadi's method. I only knew that the Seven Stars Lianju requires seven candles. I didn't expect that she could also use candle oil to complete it. Moreover, the Seven Stars Lianju looked particularly professional. If it were another person, I would probably ask him to perform the Seven Stars Lianju.
It's simple, but if you arrange a seven-star continuum in such a large area, it would be a very difficult thing.
When she finished arranging it, I breathed a sigh of relief, looked at her with admiration, and said, "Dadi, you are amazing, and you are so agile in doing things. Look at how neatly and neatly you arranged the seven stars in a row!"
I grinned and said helplessly, "It seems like we don't have much time to talk about these things now. Fatty, I'm still counting on you to figure out a way. Hurry up."
"Come on, don't praise me anymore. I haven't done this work for a long time and I'm a bit unskilled. After lighting the candle, I still need some time to see the reaction of the candle and see if it goes out first."
"Oh." I nodded blankly, but my interest was aroused.
Before I finished speaking, I heard a strange sound, as if someone was hitting something with a fist. I was stunned and glanced at Xu Qian beside me. She seemed to have heard the sound, and she also looked wary at this time.
"Could it be?" A sudden thought occurred to me, and I looked at the hanging coffin in the sky.
At this time, the coffin above had begun to swing violently, and then the sound of fists and bombardment came from inside.
Seeing this scene, Dadi and I looked at each other and said, "Dadi, could it be that these rice dumplings can't wait for our candles to show their effect, so they can't wait to come out to eat?"
"It seems that the light-locking technique has worked."
Chapter completed!
