Appreciation of treasures

Chapter 962 The Man in Black Sudden Appearance
Zhao Gang said: "It's not too late, Uncle Wu, why don't you take us to see where the more than 1000 keys of this door are?"

Uncle Wu said: "Okay, I'll take you there."

Then Zhao Gang and his party followed Uncle Wu to a secret room.

This secret room is not too big, only fifty or sixty square meters, but there are various grids densely packed inside.

The grid is placed on the ground, similar to the jigsaw puzzles that children play today.

These grids are full of strange-shaped things. Judging from the "keys" that Uncle Wu said before, these things should be the things needed to open the high priest's cemetery.

The sharp-eyed Zhao Gang stared at one of these grids, and there was an empty grid. It seems that this empty grid is the key to cracking here.

He looked at Uncle Wu, who also knew what he meant, and began to explain: "Here is where the keys needed to open the gate are stored, and it is also the checkpoint that must be passed to open the gate."

"All you have to do is push the correct key to that space, and then press the button to open the door." Uncle Wu said, pointing to a round button beside him with his index finger.

After Zhao Gang listened, he looked at the round button and didn't pay much attention to it. He knew that this button was pressed last, not the most important step.

The most urgent task is to find out the real shape of the key to open the bronze door.

Zhao Gang has already tried to walk off the field, pushing a grid towards the empty space.

He felt that he could push it without using too much force. It seemed that this grid mechanism was specially made to move the grid to choose the correct answer.

However, there are more than 1000 of these grids alone, and it is enough to make people dizzy just looking at them all, let alone finding a correct key that only has one chance to open it.

Zhao Gang looked at the neatly arranged grids on the floor and fell into deep thought.

He will not act rashly until he thinks of the correct answer.

What these grids represent are patterns, not real keys.

In other words, you have to choose a "key" with a pattern that can open that lockhole. As long as you choose the right one, the huge bronze door will automatically open.

There is a mapping relationship between this place and the bronze gate.

The design is truly ingenious.

This bronze door is so huge, I think the craftsmen at that time also considered that if the posterity had to push it by themselves, it must be impossible to push such a huge door.

So they chose to make a mechanism to let the bronze door open by itself.

In this way, from the small to the big, the selection of inheritors and the defense of tomb robbers are both. Zhao Gang couldn't help but admire: It's a genius idea.

Zhao Gang carefully looked at all the more than 1000 patterns on the ground, including birds, animals, and various patterns that he had never seen before.

Although he didn't recognize most of them, he recognized a very few of them, and they were the totem of Baiyue Kingdom—the mysterious bird!
"Let's go back and take a look." Zhao Gang shouted, taking Jin Mei and Qi Huan back with him.

He already has a preliminary idea, and he should be able to deduce which key can open the huge bronze door just by looking at the hole again.

Returning to the original place this time, Zhao Gang carefully looked at the small door lock.

Suddenly, the inspiration I captured before materialized this time.

It is tenon and tenon!
Mortise and tenon structure!

Zhao Gang finally recognized what the thing in front of him was.

This lock is a collection of one type of mortise and tenon. It looks like a dovetail tenon. In fact, it is not that simple. It is also combined with a raglan tenon, so that it is not easy to be seen. Therefore, Zhao Gang just felt familiar at first. But I didn't understand what was going on.

Fortunately, Zhao Gang had studied this kind of culture for some furniture from the Ming Dynasty and before, and then deduced it carefully, and finally found that the corresponding relationship between the lock and the key is the ancient Huaguo mortise and tenon structure.

Zhao Gang couldn't restrain the excitement in the corner of his eyes, and hugged Qi Huan: "I know! I know!"

"Qi Huan! I know how to open the door!"

Zhao Gang danced with joy and couldn't help himself.

Qi Huan and Jin Mei were also infected by Zhao Gang's smile, they laughed along with their previous fear and sorrow.

"How old are you, why do you still look like a child, let me down!" Qi Huan said.

Only then did Zhao Gang realize that he was over-excited, and hurriedly put down the blushing Qi Huan.

At this time, Sixth Sister Wu came over and said, "Now that you know how to drive, let's try it."

In fact, Sixth Sister Wu didn't want to believe that Zhao Gang could find the correct key in such a short time.

After all, they have failed too many times before.

At this time, Zhao Gang excitedly pulled Jinmei and Qi Huan all the way to the previous key room, where Uncle Wu was still smoking pipes and waiting for them.

"How is it? Are you looking forward to it?" Uncle Wu said.

Zhao Gang carefully stared at the pattern grid on the ground, carefully searching for the one in his mind.

After staring for a long time, a look of ecstasy suddenly appeared in his eyes: "Yes, this is it!"

Zhao Gang walked towards a pattern on the ground that was composed of several square and circular arrangements, like a grid like iron chains.

He pushed the surrounding grids through the space one by one in order.

Finally, he pushed the grid to the position of the first space, which was also mapped to the position of the door key.

After Zhao Gang pushed it, he came over and said to Uncle Wu: "It's ok, I think it should be able to open."

Uncle Wu smiled; "So confident?"

Zhao Gang said: "Yes, you can drive."

Uncle Wu said: "You can think about it, this time it failed, but it won't open for three days."

Zhao Gang smiled and said, "It's okay, don't worry, I must have chosen the right one."

Uncle Wu said: "Okay, then I will press it." After finishing speaking, Uncle Wu slowly pressed the button.

Immediately afterwards, a voice that shook the world came, "Boom!"

Feeling the strong vibration on the ground, Uncle Wu and Sixth Sister Wu's expressions immediately changed: "It's actually opened."

There was a look of disbelief on their faces.

"You, you can actually open the door of the tomb."

When Zhao Gang saw this, he was also very excited. He knew that only when the tall bronze door was slowly opened from the inside, could such shocking power be conveyed to them.

Zhao Gang, Qi Huan, and Jin Mei were all ecstatic, Zhao Gang said: "Let's go and have a look."

At this moment, from nowhere, there was a burst of applause.

"Clap clap clap!"

"Wonderful, really wonderful."

From the dark corner, a person suddenly walked out.
