Six Ways of Fumo

Chapter 466 Phoenix Rebirth
Ding Ermiao agreed, asked Gu Qinglan to take a few steps away, then raised the wooden stick and once again chose the northwest position and clicked it.

Just like last time, amidst the chaos of light and shadow, a burst of gravel fell, making a clattering sound.

When the rubble stopped falling, Ding Ermiao and Gu Qinglan stepped forward again, looking up at the jade rubble on the ground, and found that the cave wall in front of them had expanded diagonally to the north, revealing a larger area of ​​​​the deep cave. pit.At the bottom of the deep pit, there are still a dozen or so grooves of the same size.

"This is the second floor. Sister Lan, stand back and wait for me to destroy the third floor mechanism." Ding Ermiao chose a position and signaled Gu Qinglan to back off.

What followed was very fast.Ding Ermiao disintegrated the Bagua Lock layer by layer, and the broken jade and gravel on the ground were piled up to a height of one person.Walking up the jade slag, there is another winding passage made of white jade in front of you.

Gu Qinglan casually picked up two pieces of broken jade from the ground and found that these broken jade pieces were all irregular cubes, or had bumps and grooves.The big one is bigger than a cigarette box, and the small one is about the size of a mahjong.

"The ancients were too smart. I can't imagine how they used this square jade to build mechanisms." Gu Qinglan played with the jade in her hand and sighed.

Ding Ermiao smiled and said: "The current Luban locks and Kongming locks are all like this. They completely use the mortise and tenon structure to engage, which is very clever. However, the specifications of the Luban lock are nothing compared to the design here. Let’s go and look for the tombs of my junior sister and the queen, and see if they are in the sky.”

Gu Qinglan agreed and moved forward with Ding Ermiao.

The white jade passage is relatively narrow, but the air is not dull.Ding Ermiao looked around and couldn't find the ventilation hole, and was filled with surprise.Such a large-scale tomb passage is so exquisitely designed that even modern people cannot complete it.

After walking for less than 10 minutes, there were steps ahead.

"Isn't it the Hanging Soul Staircase again?" Gu Qinglan was a little frightened and said as she stood in front of the steps.

Ding Ermiao chuckled: "I guess not. Even if it is a hanging soul ladder, we are not afraid. Haven't we already cracked two of them? Can we still be stumped by the third one?"

After that, Ding Ermiao stepped onto the steps first, holding Gu Qinglan's hand and walking ahead.

The steps extend upward. The slope is not large, but it is very long. After walking for 3 minutes, I still can't see the end.Just as he was wondering, he walked forward more than a dozen steps. The flashlight of the flashlight showed that the steps had reached the end.

There is a wide space at the end, and the light of the flashlight falls on a double bronze door.There are jade carvings on the bronze door. The pattern is very simple, but it is difficult to understand.

A phoenix bathed in fire was split from the middle and embedded in the bronze door on the right, near the middle seam.Strangely, the other door panel was completely empty.

Gu Qinglan and Ding Ermiao watched for a long time, not daring to push the door with their hands.

"Why is there only half of this phoenix left?" Gu Qinglan frowned and asked: "Theoretically, the queen uses the phoenix as a metaphor for herself, so she should piece together a complete phoenix. Where did the half phoenix go? What the hell? Why should we take apart this phoenix?"

Ding Ermiao thought for a long time, and suddenly a chill came over her, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back.

"Sister Lan, this pattern is very particular." Ding Ermiao took a breath and said, "If I guess correctly, this door is not a double door."

"What do you mean?" Gu Qinglan was confused.

Ding Ermiao used the umbrella in his hand to draw a dotted line in the middle of the door panel on the left and said: "I guess this door has a central axis and is a revolving door... The door panel on the right is fixed and cannot be opened."

Gu Qinglan had a black line on her head and said, "No way? There were revolving doors more than 2000 years ago? What was the purpose of designing revolving doors?"

Ding Ermiao pointed to the half phoenix on the door panel on the left and said: "If what I say is true, there is still half a phoenix on the back of the door. After the door is rotated, the phoenix pattern on the back of the door flips to the outside. It will be completely connected with the one on the right to form a complete phoenix pattern."

"So what?" Gu Qinglan asked.

"The phoenix is ​​reborn, the queen is resurrected..." Ding Ermiao said slowly: "This should be what the designer meant at the time."

Gu Qinglan was startled and asked: "Do you also think that Queen Mengmao, who has been dead for more than 2000 years, will be resurrected?"

"Be careful." Ding Ermiao thought for a long time before uttering these four words.

After studying the details in front of the copper door for a long time, Ding Ermiao started to push the door panel on the left according to his own ideas.Sure enough, with a dull creaking and rubbing sound, the copper door began to move.

As Ding Ermiao analyzed, the entire copper door does not move inward, but rotates along the central axis!
"Is it really a revolving door?" Gu Qinglan admired Ding Ermiao's speculation, but was also a little worried about the rumors of the queen's resurrection.I don’t know if this queen will be good or bad after her resurrection?Will there be any ancient magic to deal with myself and Ding Ermiao?

Although Gu Qinglan knew that her thoughts were absurd, she couldn't help but be unable to control her wild thoughts in the closed and dark tunnel.

The copper door is about an inch and a half thick, but it doesn't appear to be very heavy when pushed.Worried about hidden weapons or poisonous smoke, Ding Ermiao temporarily stopped after pushing open a gap, pressed his shoulder against the door, and hid behind the door panel.

After a while, there was no movement in the tomb.Ding Ermiao shined his headlight into the crack in the door and took a look. Sure enough, this was the palace in the sky that he and Gu Qinglan saw by the lake!

Moreover, the tomb was not dark, there was a faint flow of pearl light, and the furnishings in the hall were clearly visible.

The area of ​​the tomb is over fifty square meters.To the north are a few steps, and then the white jade chair of the throne.On the back of the chair stands a red jade phoenix bathing in flames, standing with its head held high, looking down upon the common people!
The size of the Phoenix jade carving is about three feet high and lifelike.

In front of the white jade chair, there is a jasper bed.On the bed was the girl in white clothed in snow, with a peaceful and indifferent expression on her face...

When his eyes glanced at the face of the girl on the bed, Ding Ermiao felt an inexplicable heartache and pity in his heart.

"Sister Lan, this is really the tomb of Queen Mengmao." Ding Ermiao said in a low voice.

"Is Zhanzhan inside? Zhanzhan, Zhanzhan...!" Gu Qinglan asked eagerly, and at the same time she came over and looked inside through the crack in the door.

Ding Ermiao shook his head: "I didn't see my junior sister. Wait until I open the door and go in to have a look."

"Okay, let me help you!" Gu Qinglan stopped calling and pushed the bronze door with Ding Ermiao.

The bronze door continues to rotate.Seeing that there was no danger inside, Ding Ermiao motioned to Gu Qinglan to go in first.Gu Qinglan nodded and stepped into the tomb on one side.

Ding Ermiao then held the bronze door, slowly stepped in sideways, and then let go of the bronze door.

But just after Ding Ermiao let go, and just two steps away, there was a bang behind him!

Ding Ermiao and Gu Qinglan looked back at the same time and found that the bronze door was closed together again.

Moreover, the copper door on the left side has obviously been flipped 180 degrees, completing the interchange between the inside and outside.

Because just now, Ding Ermiao and Gu Qinglan marked outside the bronze door, but now the mark has been transferred to the inside of the tomb.
