Fragrant willow catkins

Chapter 83 Mechanism

The passage is very deep, and the scene in front of me seems to have never changed, which makes my eyes hurt.

Mo Xi: "Why is there such a place in this mountain?"

Third Master: "Maybe the aborigines used it to catch wild animals."

Before Yunwu Mountain was developed, people lived there.

Ningxu: "Since it's a trap, the exit should not be far away, let's go."

The passage was pitch black. Without the Feather Sword, the three would never dare to move forward. So they didn't care what the other party was saying, or whether it was logical or not. They just wanted to chat from time to time.

Everyone expected this to be an ordinary trap, but it was obviously not. After walking through a straight passage, the passage became winding, which confused the three people again.

Ningxu: "Obviously, it's not a trap."

Mo Xi: "But it still trapped the three of us."

Third Master: "..." "Could it be a tunnel built by bandits?"

Mo Xi: "Or maybe someone's tomb?"

Third Master: "Whose mausoleum is so shallow?"

Mo Xi: "That dungeon?"

Ningxu: "I say, can you two brothers and sisters just guess gently? No matter what it is, there must be a way out."

Ningxu was troubled by these two guesses. Who would build those things in the mountain in the city? Wouldn't they be stolen immediately?

Just when the three were about to be confused, a turning point appeared around a corner.

Opposite them, there was a stone gate. But between the stone gate and them, there were square stone slabs. On the walls on both sides, there were several animal heads protruding, which looked like they were carved from stone, with their mouths wide open, and it was obvious that there were mechanisms.

Are you afraid that people won’t know it’s a trap?

Ningxu: "Who of you is going?"

The Third Master didn't understand this and was a little resistant.

Mo Xi was extremely unwilling to do that.

Ningxu looked at the two of them like this and said, "Then I'll go." Then she wanted to step directly on the stone.

"No, no, no, Meng'er!" The Third Master hurriedly pulled her back, and Mo Xi followed closely and held her other hand.

Mo Xi: "Don't worry, take a look first, maybe there will be some hints."

Ningxu tore their hands apart, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to get down to business, muttering, "I've watched so many tomb-robbing movies, it's time to show off my skills!"

Mo Xi: "There is also a storybook about tomb robbery? Aren't you afraid that his descendants will come after him?"

After hearing what Mo Xi said, Ning Xu realized that she had let the cat out of the bag. She was used to saying this when she was with the Third Master, but Mo Xi probably mistook a film for an article.

Ningxu wanted to bring the topic back to the topic, "What should we do in this situation? Try to step on one first?"

Mo Xi: "Wait a minute if you're dead."

Ningxu: "Then what do you say we should do?"

Mo Xi bent his body and looked at the stone gate from different angles, and then looked at the animal heads. He almost lay on the ground to look. "I don't think there are any lines blocking us. We can just fly over."

The Third Master and Ningxu retreated in tacit understanding.

Ningxu: You’re welcome. Smile.

Mo Xi turned his head stiffly, rolled his eyes and forced a stiff smile on his face.

"I'll go first, so you can see the courage of the real children of the Mo family!" As he said that, Mo Xi stepped back step by step until his back was against the wall, then he ran forward, easily stepped over the head of the beast, and landed steadily in front of the stone gate opposite.

Still standing there, the Third Master and Ning Xu, who had been pretending to be the eldest young master and the sixth young lady of the Mo family for many days, gave Mo Xi a thumbs up...

Mo Xi: "Look! Fly over the trap, and even if he shoots something, it won't be able to hit you!"

Ningxu and Sanye flew to the other side using the same method. Ningxu looked back at the small stones and thought it was quite simple.

The three of them stood in their positions, and the Third Master reached out to push the door.

Use force, don't push.

No matter how hard I try, I still can't...

The expectant expression on Mo Xi's face remained unchanged, and the Third Master silently looked at Ning Xu...

Ningxu naturally understood the meaning in his eyes, "Isn't it possible that I have to step on the right stone to open the door..."

Mo Xi: ...

Third Master: “It should be.”

The three of them sighed, turned around tacitly, and looked at the stone bricks in front of them.

Ningxu: "Hey... let's try them one by one..."

Mo Xi: "How do I try this?"

Ningxu was experienced. She placed the Yuluo sword against the stone gate, flew to the starting point, and began her guess.

Ningxu suddenly lay prone on the ground, still some distance away from the stone, and stretched out her hand to press the stone in front of her. If she pressed it correctly, there would be no reaction, but if she pressed it incorrectly, the animal heads on both sides would spray out arrows. But because Ningxu was lying prone, the arrows could not hit her at all.

In this way, Ningxu used her "experience" and tried and failed step by step.

Mo Xi on the opposite side was completely stunned. Is this how the tomb robbers in the book get past the trap?

The Third Master looked at Ningxu helplessly yet dotingly. His Meng'er had a lot of ideas, but they were all ideas that could only be applied to herself.

Finally, Ningxu passed through normally and arrived at the door. After she stood still, the third master stepped forward to brush off the dust on her body, and the door opened automatically in front of the three of them.

Ningxu picked up the Yuluo sword, and the three of them walked towards the door together.

The door was not closed. After walking in, it seemed like a large hall. The hall had a circular structure with a huge disc in the center. In the middle of the disc was a pillar, and on the pillar was an unknown animal like the animal head just now.

Seeing that this was not the exit, Mo Xi sighed with deep sorrow, "I have never been so embarrassed before!"

Ningxu: "It doesn't matter this time. Let's save our energy and find the door first."

Mo Xi received the order and the three of them dispersed to find a exit.

In this situation, facing these caves, what else can we do except accept it?

After searching for a long time, the Third Master finally found the door on the wall covered with branches. The door was covered with branches and vines, and it seemed that no one had opened it for a long time. Ningxu took the Yuluo sword and slashed at the door a few times, cutting off all the branches on the door, revealing the true shape of the door.

This is the same stone door as the entrance. There is no handle on the door. Mo Xi went forward and pushed it but it didn't budge. "It should have a mechanism. I can't push it no matter what I do."

Ningxu: "This door is occupied by plants. Is the mechanism still useful? Will it become too old to be opened?"

Mo Xi: "It's becoming more and more like a mausoleum. Otherwise, why does it look like no one has been here for a long time?"

Mo Xi looked at the stone door in front of him and frowned slightly. There was no special pattern on the door. It was a bit strange to say that it was a mausoleum. There must be some totems symbolizing identity carved on the door.

The Third Master pulled Ningxu towards the round plate in the cave, "Meng'er, let's look for the mechanism first."

Ningxu's temper was almost over. She was already annoyed after falling into the cave, but in order to comfort the two of them, she optimistically looked for an exit and didn't vent her negative emotions. So much so that when she and Sanye were looking for the mechanism, she would even kick the pebbles on the ground as they passed by.
