Tomb Raiders: One Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate, Angrily Splits the Bronze Gate

"This road is so long?" Fatty Wang said in surprise, "But why do I feel that we are not going straight down?"

Lao Hu was also a little puzzled when he heard it, because this feeling was not only Fatty Wang, but also him.

But the main reason is that the surrounding environment is too strange, so dark that even lighting tools are useless.

But the only good thing is that there seems to be no mechanism here, and everything is safe.

"The path we're walking on is called the Hanging Soul Ladder!"

"Just like the Mobius ring, its front and back are connected!"

"In other words, we walked for half an hour, but it was no different from standing still!"

As soon as this remark came out, Fatty Wang and Da Jinya immediately mourned.After walking for more than half an hour, it turned out to be such a result in the end, who can bear it?
After hearing this, Lao Hu frowned: "If this is the case, then the 'door' must be hidden. After all, we can't land here suddenly. Besides, it's the cooperation of the environment..."

While talking, Lao Hu looked at his position and finally sighed.

Their light sources are almost ineffective, and there is no protection on both sides, like an abyss.

Underneath the darkness, no one knows what mechanism is hidden, or how deep it is... Everything seems to be just as Wu Yu said.

"I'll give it a try, Fatty Lao Jin, you are waiting for me here!" After finishing speaking, Lao Hu looked at the path ahead and walked straight over.

After a few breaths, the whole person disappeared into the darkness.

"Old Hu?"

"Second Master, is there anything wrong with this?" Fatty Wang asked worriedly.

"We've been walking for half an hour, what's the matter?" Wu Yu waved his hand.

"That's right, fat master, don't worry about it." Da Jinya smiled and sat on the ground: "Master Hu, this is a chance!"

Now Da Jinya naturally saw what Wu Yu meant, that was to train Lao Hu on purpose.

An opportunity like this is absolutely impossible to come by.

Therefore, even if there is real danger, Wu Yu will definitely keep Lao Hu in the end.

After thinking about this, Da Jinya naturally has nothing to worry about.

Ten minutes later, Lao Hu's voice came from the direction behind several people, and soon Lao Hu slowly appeared.Looking at the group of people in front of him, he also understood the predicament they are currently encountering.

"This must be Li Chunfeng's handwriting." Lao Hu sighed: "I have just deduced it all the way on the way here, and found that if it is deduced step by step and finally merged together, then It will take at least [-] days to find a way out."

"And this must be based on the premise that there are no mistakes in the middle, otherwise everything will be overturned and repeated, and I don't know how long it will take."

"Thirty-six thousand days? My dear, you might as well just say that you're going to die here." Fatty Wang complained blankly.

"Old Hu, you have fallen into a blind spot again."

After a brief rest and a bite of food, Wu Yu reminded from the side: "Have you never thought about the most basic thing?"

"If it were you who designed and built this hanging soul ladder."

"Then, how do you leave yourself a 'back door' for easy entry and exit after ensuring that you come in?"

"The strong light we use can't penetrate here, so the ancient people only relied on candle oil lamps, could it be enough?"

"I don't have a sense of direction, I don't know the exact location, even if Li Chunfeng comes, there is no way to find a way out."

"Hidden clues!" Lao Hu immediately understood after hearing Wu Yu's words.

Then he picked up the flashlight and started walking forward, finally disappearing into the darkness again.

After walking for more than half an hour, this time the figure of Lao Hu slowly came from behind.

"Second Master, I found it."

Old Hu smiled and said: "It's pitch black here, because Li Chunfeng doesn't want people to find the door we used to go in and out, so it's so dark, absorbs light, and creates the illusion of time and space."

"But again, if we can't find it, then even a builder like Li Chunfeng may not be able to find it every time, so there must be an inconspicuous clue left on this hanging soul ladder."

Immediately, under the leadership of Lao Hu, everyone came to a seemingly ordinary step and stopped.

"It's... nothing?" Da Jinya looked it over carefully, but found nothing.

"It's not on the surface, but it's on the side!" Lao Hu said with a smile: "Since it's a mark, it can't be left on the bright side. And there are no railings on the left and right sides of the Hanging Soul Ladder, so it is extremely easy to be ignored. side."

After hearing this, Da Jinya stretched out his hand and touched it again. As expected, this time his fingertips found a Tai Chi Yin-Yang pattern.

Then I groped a few steps up and down, but it turned out to be very flat and smooth.

In other words, there is nothing but this step.

"Yes, I groped all the way, but I didn't find anything else." Lao Hu couldn't help smiling when he saw the big gold tooth.

He thought the same thing as Da Jinya at first, but it turned out that after the whole circle, only this one is special.

"Also, I counted the steps here, there are 380 in total."

"Gaijuechu Taiji gave birth to Liangyi, Liangyi gave birth to Sixiang, and Sixiang gave birth to Eight Diagrams. The Eight Diagrams interacted to form 64 hexagrams, and each hexagram had six lines, a total of 380 four lines. The two corresponded exactly!"

"And if you look carefully at the steps, you will find that the left and right sides are actually a yin and a yang, which have completely different differences. If you start from this yin-yang and Taiji diagram, then you must find the location of the life gate from the 64 hexagrams. !"

"If this is the case, then we should be in a predicament now, so corresponding to the troubled hexagram, wouldn't it be six steps?" Da Jinya said after silently calculating.

"That's right, sleepy hexagram ninety-five..."

After walking for a while, Lao Hu stopped: "This is it."

"If you encounter difficulties first, you must first solve them."

"The upside of the sleepy hexagram is reversed, and the fifth line is the yang line. If the yang line changes to the yin line, the sleepy hexagram will naturally become the understanding hexagram!"

"But the position I'm standing on now should be the Cui Gua!" Wu Yu tiptoed: "Cui Gua, the world will gather smoothly and prosper, and there is a chance of producing a Gua Gua!"

As soon as this remark came out, a wry smile appeared on Lao Hu's face: "Second Master is right, and because of this, I'm not sure which of these two positions is the Shengmen."

Seeing this, Wu Yu looked at Lao Hu and said suddenly, "I have another question, Lao Hu."

"Second Master, please tell me." Lao Hu nodded.

"How did you guess that the way out is down there?"

"Although you can't see anything, it has been tested. It is absolutely bottomless. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an abyss."

"In this case, why can't we find a certain mechanism and go through a certain door like when we came in?"

"And how did you figure that out?"

"I didn't think too much about it, I just felt that the way out was below." Lao Hu blurted out subconsciously: "I didn't think about anything else, it was just a sudden feeling when I found this Tai Chi diagram."

"In this case, Lao Hu, have you ever thought about... other than gossip deduction, what other methods do you have to find the way out?" Wu Yu looked at Lao Hu and said seriously: "For example, your sudden There is an inexplicable intuition!"

"Ah?" After hearing Wu Yu's words, Lao Hu was stunned.

"Can this matter be based on intuition?"

"Others can't, but if it's you, maybe you can?"

Several people looked at Wu Yu who didn't look like he was joking, and they were all dumbfounded.

"Old Hu, do you have any special skills?" Fatty Wang leaned over and muttered.

"What skills do I have, you don't know?" Lao Hu rolled his eyes angrily.

But Wu Yu would not talk nonsense casually, so there must be some basis for it.

This made him wonder.

Subconsciously, he wanted to enter the inner scene to figure out the mystery in Wu Yu's words, but in the next second, a gentle force came from the ground, "squeezing" him out of the inner scene.

Looking at Wu Yu's expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, Lao Hu knew that Wu Yu must have made the move.

And this made him even more confused.

"Take off your shoes." At this moment, Si Teng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly looked at Lao Hu and said coldly.

"Ah?" Lao Hu was even more confused.

But looking at Si Teng's gaze, he still took it off.

"Socks, take off."

"Barefoot?" Old Hu couldn't understand Si Teng's meaning, but he followed Wu Yu after glancing at him.

"Concentrate, calm down, relax, imagine yourself as a transparent, invisible and insubstantial existence, and then find a direction that you want to integrate yourself into."

"Isn't that the interior scene?" Lao Hu subconsciously said after listening to Wu Yu's words.

Wu Yu shook his head, but didn't say much.

Seeing this, Lao Hu had no choice but to follow Wu Yu's words and continue.

Soon Lao Hu felt himself getting lighter and more relaxed.

And he quickly noticed the signal from the inner scene to him, as if he was saying hello, "You're here".

Subconsciously, I want to get closer to it.

But at this moment, a force suddenly pulled him out.

Sensing the direction of this force, Lao Hu knew that it was Wu Yu who intervened again.

"That's right, what the second master is talking about should not be the interior scene, or even the technique of yin and yang Fengshui."

"But apart from these things, I don't know anything else!"

In this way, time and time again, when Lao Hu was about to enter the inner scene, he would be pulled out abruptly by a force under Wu Yu's feet.

Repeatedly, the face of Lao Hu who stood there gradually turned pale, and his mental exhaustion was not low.Although the entry of the interior scene failed, it does not mean that there is no consumption.

Even if he was pulled out by Wu Yu, it would still be counted as having used the power of the inner scene, which would consume some of Lao Hu's energy.

"Didn't you say you have a feeling? If you believe in it, why can't you find it?"

Wu Yu's voice came to his ears at this time.

But it made Lao Hu even more confused.

Feel?

How can I find something illusory?
"Since it is a feeling, there must be traces to follow, but it has been ignored by you all the time."

Wu Yu seemed to know what Lao Hu was thinking at the moment, and said lightly: "Recall your previous experiences, especially the last Great Wall incident!"

"Your feelings are not brought about by your Yin-Yang Feng Shui technique."

"Instead, it was because of your premonition that you used the technique of Yin-Yang Fengshui after giving you the 'alert' in advance, and deduced it."

"Old Hu, all along, you have either reversed the relationship between the two, or confused them."

"Have you ever thought that...they're two completely different things?"

"Different? Isn't it the art of Yin-Yang Fengshui?" Lao Hu naturally understood what Wu Yu meant when he heard Wu Yu's words.

But it was also because of this that Lao Hu was even more at a loss.

After getting the confirmation, it made him even more at a loss.

After being silent for a long time, I began to gradually learn to exclude the inner scene, and no longer eager to enter it after seeing the word inner scene.

Standing in a cloud of air, Lao Hu kept thinking about what kind of force it was.

Feel?

So, if not by accident, where did its spearhead come from?

Time passed bit by bit, but Lao Hu's condition was much better.After learning to reject the inner scene, and taking the initiative to enter the inner scene and when to enter, Lao Hu's consumption has been reduced a lot in an instant, so he has maintained this state for a longer time.

In the outside world, Wu Yu couldn't help shaking his head seeing that Lao Hu still didn't do anything. Now he finally understood what it was like when the old man of Zhuge's family taught him.

"It's true that rotten wood can't be carved!"

"Obviously I already have such a strong talent, but I always linger at the door and don't enter it."

Wu Yu could already feel that Lao Hu's physical strength was recovering rapidly. Didn't he notice such an abnormal situation?
Do you really think you are in good shape?
With a wry smile, Wu Yu really didn't know what to do.

"Goal! Hu, you are missing a goal!"

"Target?" Lao Hu seemed a little puzzled.

"In the past, its arrival was just your feeling. It was triggered by you unintentionally because of some things, and it was sudden."

"But now, you need to take the initiative to find it and use it. But... to use it, you need a target, use the target to feel its existence, and then follow the vine to find the root!"

"Follow the melon and touch the vine..."

Lao Hu's mind was spinning rapidly thinking about what Wu Yu's words meant.

Finally, they suddenly thought of their current situation and what Wu Yu just said.

There is a goal!
The way out of the Hanging Soul Ladder!

"It's on the wall!"

"It's on the wall!"

"It's on the wall!"

Lao Hu began to quickly hypnotize himself, making him forget that he had counted on the real exit and wanted to jump off the Hanging Soul Ladder, but crazily guided himself in a wrong direction!
In this way, time passed unconsciously, and Fatty Wang and Da Jinya had slept six times. Although they ate and drank, the depression caused by such an environment was really uncomfortable.

During these six days, Lao Hu was like a statue, motionless and silent.

Just when the two of them thought that such days might continue, their faces suddenly changed and they wanted to rush forward to wake up Lao Hu.

But it was directly tied up by two vines and hung aside.

At this moment, Lao Hu gradually spread upwards from his feet, and his whole body gradually seemed to be wrapped in mud.

The yellow-brown soil is constantly rising, and it seems that Lao Hu is about to become a terracotta warrior.

And at this time, Lao Hu finally felt something.

He was so hypnotized that he almost took it seriously, as if he was going to find a way out on the rock wall ahead.

But just when he wanted to move his legs, he realized that he could no longer move.

The whole person seems to be connected to the whole hanging soul ladder, or more precisely, the whole earth, he... is a part of the earth.

Break free?

That's equivalent to amputation!
In this way, Lao Hu felt as if he was about to be swallowed up by the earth, and finally his eyes went dark, and his whole body fell into dead silence.

Fear, panic, the suffocating chaos, and countless negative emotions flooded my heart.

It seemed that in the next second of Lao Hu's collapse, a ray of light suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

At that moment, Lao Hu saw hope in you.

Then he ran towards that hope, and at this moment, that feeling emerged in his heart again.

That... melon!

The road, below, not the wall!

Follow the melon and touch the vine, just like what Wu Yu said, Lao Hu vaguely seemed to understand something.

He no longer took the initiative to run towards the place full of hopeful light, but stood where he was, and as he continued to explore, the hopeful light started to move.

It's not about staying away, but actively approaching him.

Although it was very slow, Lao Hu felt that... that seemed to be where the "root" he wanted to find along the vine!
For this reason, Lao Hu desperately began to pull, and he didn't know how long it took. He was exhausted again and again, and finally he watched the light in front of him envelope him.

His world is no longer dark.

Without opening his eyes suddenly, Lao Hu subconsciously grinned.

Shaking the dirt on his body, he looked at Wu Yu not far away and nodded.

In the next second, his feet trembled.

Two stone pillars slowly extended from the rock wall, connecting to the feet of Fatty Wang and Da Jinya, and then slowly dragged them up.

"Thank you, Second Master, for your kindness in preaching!" Walking forward, Lao Hu bowed deeply to Wu Yu.

At this moment, he finally understood Wu Yu's intentions.

"It doesn't have to be like this." Wu Yu helped Lao Hu up and smiled: "Even without me, I believe that after a while, you can also understand it."

"On the contrary, I hope you won't blame me in the future for dragging you into this chaos and killing."

"Absolutely not." Lao Hu looked at Wu Yu seriously and said, "The world today is changing every minute, and we cannot stop these things."
