Treasure Hunt Memo

Chapter 23
The three of us looked at the tomb in front of us and Su Heluo, who was sleeping against the wall, with expressions of disbelief.

Things have completely exceeded my expectations so far, and I never imagined that after going through all kinds of hardships, I went back to the original starting point.And we followed Le Zi's instructions before entering the fourth passage on the left. How could this be?

"What passage did we come out from just now?" Elder Qi asked with a gloomy face, looking at the wall on the right.

Old Qi's words broke the silent atmosphere. After listening happily, he turned around and got into the passage just now to check the number inside.

Su Heluo also woke up leisurely at this time. Seeing us coming back, he stood up leaning on the wall, and asked in a daze, "How is it?"

"I went around and came back again." I sighed helplessly.

Xinran, who got into the passage, ran out and said, "It's the third passage on the right."

what? !

We entered through the "fourth from the left" passage and exited through the third from the right.Coincidentally, these two sets of numbers correspond exactly to the information hidden on the two lees.

"Could it be that those three sets of information refer to dangerous passages?" I rubbed my chin, thought for a while, and whispered.

Elder Qi was also very confused. He looked at me, then looked around, and wondered in a low voice: "How could this happen? It shouldn't be like this."

Su Heluo was even more confused, and asked beside Xinran: "What information? What are they talking about?"

But Xinran didn't answer him, just shook his head, and he looked even more confused.

At this time, there was no sound in the tomb, everyone was thinking about something, only the light of the flashlight flickered from time to time, and the atmosphere seemed particularly heavy.Suddenly, there was a sound of walking in the passage on the right wall.

I shivered uncontrollably, and the first reaction in my mind was that the zongzi in the passage were chasing after me.

The light from the four flashlights hit the right wall at the same time, and a figure slowly walked out of a passage on the right. Before walking a few steps, he fell to the ground with blood on his hands and face. ...

"Long Yu?"

"Uncle Yu!"

We immediately surrounded him and helped him up.At this moment, Zhao Longyu passed out. After we took off his clothes, we found that there was a long gash on his right forearm and front chest, and there was also a knife wound on his left cheek. It looked like he had just Experienced a life and death struggle.

"Isn't Uncle Yu guarding the well? How did he come out of the passage?" Xinran fed Zhao Longyu some water and asked in confusion.

Old Qi sighed and said, "Let's ask him when he wakes up."

It took about half an hour before Zhao Longyu woke up. When he opened his eyes and saw us, he was very excited. Elder Qi approached him, and he held his hand and said weakly: "Old man, I didn't expect I can still see you! I almost thought I couldn't get out!"

Qi Lao held his hand instead, patted it, and asked: "Long Yu, aren't you guarding it? Why are you here again?"

Zhao Longyu was still very excited at the moment, his chest was heaving violently, he coughed and said, "Oh...fuck! It's all to blame... It's all to blame for my fucking hands. I looked at the night pearl on the wall of the tomb and thought it was nothing. It's just... I just wanted to pry a few of them off. I didn't think about it, and I got tricked. That night, Mingzhu retracted as soon as I touched it. Before I could react, the floor tile I was standing on flipped over, and I fell down..."

Hearing what he said, I hurriedly asked with concern: "Then how did you get into what you are now?"

Zhao Longyu pointed to the wall on the right, with trembling fingers, and said, "As soon as I entered, I encountered a group of zongzi. Fuck, it's the same as what we encountered before. It won't kill me. If it wasn't for the slow speed of that thing, My mother just confessed it inside. I was chased away by a group of zongzi, and there were traps in front of me...a sandpit falling into rocks...a master...a master was designed..." Zhao Longyu's words behind him were intermittent, coupled with a severe cough , sounds out of line.

Qi Laorang Xinran supported Zhao Longyu to rest, and then motioned me to see which passageway Zhao Longyu came out of just now.

After I went in, I found the serial number on the wall, and came out to report to Qi Laohui: "Aisle No. [-] on the right."

Mr. Qi nodded and greeted him happily. The three of us sat in a small circle. He pondered for a while, and then analyzed: "The three sets of information recorded by Huang Li are quite unique, time-consuming and labor-intensive. The "second from the right" that Yu just walked through has no records, but it is still full of dangers. From this point of view, the three sets of information should not be used to record dangerous passages. But we just followed the "fourth from the left" to the "third from the right" ", and then back to the tomb, there were many crises along the way. What is the problem?"

I was also very puzzled, and said: "First of all, the content of these three sets of information is not a problem. The composition of the information is the left, middle and right plus numbers. The left, middle and right are obvious, and the numbers are also the same as those engraved in the channel. The serial numbers are the same, so there should be no problem."

"It's the orientation! The problem lies in the orientation." Elder Qi seemed to have grasped some key point suddenly, and said, "From the very beginning, we took it for granted that the left, middle, and right are judged by the direction when entering the tomb."

He took out a compass-like thing from his bag, found out the direction, pointed to it and said: "At that time, the sitting direction was used, that is, sitting north and facing south was the positive direction. We entered the tomb from south to north, and according to the sitting direction , the east should be the left, and the west should be the right. So let's reverse the left and right!"

Xinran and I also understood immediately, we thought we were "fourth from the left", but in fact we were "fourth from the right".

After figuring out the location, Elder Qi asked Xinran and me to wait in this tomb, and entered the real "fourth from the left" passage by himself.

About ten minutes later, there was a "click" sound under the tomb where we were, and a square three to four meters long in the middle of the ground sank a bit.

The sudden change startled us all. We all looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what happened.

"Could it be Mr. Qi who made the noise?" I asked.

Hearing this, Xin Ran became worried, looked at me and said, "Why don't we go in and see Grandpa?"

I nodded, followed Qi Lao's footsteps with Xinran, and entered the "fourth from the left" passage.

We had only walked for a few minutes before we saw the light of the flashlight, and it was Mr. Qi who was walking towards us!He said that the road was very stable, there were no traps, and there was a push-pull switch at the end. After he pushed it, he found that there was no change.Hearing this, we hurriedly told him about the sinking of the tomb floor.

"It seems that these three sets of information should correspond to three switches, and if they are all turned on, the real channel should be opened." Qi Lao said.
