Chapter 67 Chapter 21 Nine Heart Lock

Seeing a few corpses brought back bad memories for me. These Germans reminded me of the Japanese devils I met on the Qiankaba Mountain. What kind of purpose did they keep looking for these horrible people? thing? Before I got the answer, I suddenly felt a chill behind my back, and looked back with a guilty conscience. Unexpectedly, half of my soul was frightened when I saw it. Lights, looking back at this moment, the first few lights have disappeared, and the lights next to us are also flickering. You must know that this place is in a cave, and the few of us didn’t feel any sign of wind here. Niqiong seemed to have discovered the problem. He looked back at the light, and immediately screamed: "This, this ,This????!"

Seeing Niqiong's panic, I, who was suppressing the panic, suddenly became confused. It's not like I haven't seen a big scene before, but people always have a certain fear of unknown things. Just when I was about to lose control of my emotions, Lao Li yelled behind me: "Don't stand still! Follow me!" Niqiong was also overwhelmed by this voice. The few of us seemed to have found the backbone, and ran deep with Lao Li.In addition to the whistling wind, the rustling voice became clearer and clearer.I knew in my heart that there were too many weirdnesses in this ghostly place, and I probably couldn't get out of it.

While I was thinking wildly, Niqiong yelled again: "Ah! Hurry up???!" It was already scary enough, but this Niqiong really upset people, I couldn't hold back anymore, and yelled at Niqiong: "Can't you be bloody like a bloody Tibetan? The one who entered the cave It's you, and you're the one who's flustered, what's the matter?" Xu Zhiwu, who was pale on the side, pointed to the front with a trembling voice and said, "Xiao Luo??? Look??? The front is the door." I looked in the direction of his finger, and an extremely old and heavy wooden door blocked our way. Just as I was about to push the door, Lao Li walked to the door first. As if talking to himself, he said: "It doesn't make sense??? It doesn't make sense."

The rustling voice in my ear was getting closer and closer, and I didn't care too much, so I strode over.Following Lao Li's gaze, his mind suddenly became cold.I just heard Lao Li talking non-stop: "Nine Hearts Lock??? Nine Hearts Lock???" Niqiong was also taken aback for a moment: "What is Jiuxin Lock? Why haven't I heard of it?" I took the conversation and said: "This nine-heart lock was popular in the Warring States period. It is used to pass confidential documents between allies, and then lock it with the nine-heart lock. In this way, even if it is intercepted by other enemy countries, you don't have to worry about being cracked. Because this kind of lock Similar to today's combination lock, it was built by skilled craftsmen at that time according to the number of Jiugong. At present, this technology has long been lost. Unexpectedly, it has become a hindrance to us today."

Niqiong and Xu Zhiwu looked at me blankly, their eyes seemed to say: Aren't we doomed? And Lao Li didn't pay attention to my words at the moment, but seeing the sweat on his forehead slipping to his chin, dripping non-stop, I knew that Lao Li was helpless. Just when we were desperate, the rustling voice suddenly disappeared, and all of us except Lao Li looked back with wide-eyed eyes. Under the light of the fire, a monster that looked like a bear and not a bear, a monster that looked like a human but not a human was wriggling about seven or eight meters away.The reason why it is said to be creeping is that while the monster is slowly approaching us, it is not taking steps, but moving forward like the tracks of a tank.

Niqiong didn't care too much, took out the pistol he picked up just now, pulled the bolt and went to the hall, all in one go, only heard three "papapa", the bullet hit the monster's head accurately.But at this moment we unconsciously stepped back.Because the monster didn't even react at all, and continued his slow progress. I rolled my eyes and waved my arms, and the grenade throwing practiced by soldiers immediately took effect, and the torch hit the monster's head impartially.It's like being in a hornet's nest.The monster seemed to melt when it touched the torch, and then the screeching sound reappeared.

Xu Zhiwu was so frightened that he yelled again and again: "It's a bug, a bug! Ahhh!" I was also terrified, feeling that this monster is made of bugs, no wonder it moves forward like a tank on crawlers, no wonder Niqiong's bullets will be fine when hit.I couldn't help turning around and shouting at Lao Li: "Lao Li! If the lock doesn't open, we are all finished! Niqiong! If you are afraid of fire, light the torch!" To say that although Xu Zhiwu is a little timid, it is still very useful at this time. Hearing my shout, before Niqiong lit the torch, he fumbled in his pocket, and then took out the same thing that called me and Niqiong. The thing that surprised everyone---Red Star Erguotou!

Xu Zhiwu looked at me and Niqiong and shouted anxiously: "Isn't it just white wine, what are you looking at, give me a lighter! I still have several bottles." Like a retard, Niqiong obediently took out the lighter and handed it over.Immediately afterwards Xu Zhiwu shouted to me: "Xiao Luo, look at the torch you threw just now, can the wine bottle still be on point?" Without saying a word, I went up and snatched Erguotou, and slammed it hard on the ground in front of me. Then Xu Zhiwu took out several bottles of Erguotou from his clothes and trouser pocket one after another, and I also smashed them all on the ground, and immediately threw the torch over.With a little coaxing, the baijiu on the ground was ignited.Sure enough, as I expected, the bug was really afraid of fire, so it shrank back immediately.

I looked back at Lao Li, and I was still talking to myself, not knowing what to say, but the lock was still hanging there, untouched, I knew that Lao Li was not sure to open the lock. The lock was broken, so I thought about countermeasures there. Taking advantage of this time, I pulled Niqiong forward a few steps, looked at the worm in front of me and said, "Niqiong, have you seen this playful?" Niqiong shook his head and said: "In the Tibetan area, only the Daxue Mountains have such big armor-like insects, but they are all white. These dark and shiny insects are really hard to see??? "

Speaking of which, I guessed something, but I'm not sure, because I don't want to know how the bug got here, I just want to know if Lao Li has opened the lock.So I didn't care too much, and strode to Lao Li's side. Before I could speak, Lao Li said firstly, "Up horizontally, 3 empty 9, left vertically 3 empty 1, down 1 empty 2, hollow 8 empty, right vertical 952. What numbers are in this empty space?" I was taken aback by the question: "What's the matter?" Xu Zhiwu heard it clearly, took out a pen from his pocket, and drew a square on the ground, including 9 small squares, and then asked Lao Li to repeat the number, and then Lao Li also walked over and said Talking to himself, he seemed to say: "This nine-square grid is only given to one, and there are no other eight. How can we organize it?"

I also gradually saw the way, but I'm really not very good at numbers, so I kept silent.And Jonny is the same as me, I winked at Jonny, I know that those bottles of wine won't last long, and those bugs are gradually forming this thing, as if they want to cross the flame. So Niqiong and I walked halfway, looking for the most useful items to resist the next bug attack, while the two key people, Lao Li and Xu Zhiwu, continued to think there. "There are three numbers missing from 1-9 in this nine-square grid, which are 467, but the big nine-square grid has not given it. If we misspell it, something unexpected happens to the lock, and we really don't have it." There is a way out." Xu Zhiwu closed his eyes in pain. However, Lao Li still stared at the nine grids and said suddenly: "According to our Taoist thinking, the Nine Palaces cannot be separated from the art of the Five Elements, except that the odd number is five numbers, and there is only one 7 among the few numbers." an odd number." After finishing speaking, Lao Li looked back at the lock, and then drew a cross on the ground, going up north and down south, left west and right east.Then write North 2, South 4, West 6, East 8 in the four directions, and then mark the odd numbers, Metal 1, Wood 3, Water 5, Fire 7, and Earth 9. Finally, the heavenly stems and earthly branches are drawn around the cross.Lao Li painted faster and faster, and Xu Zhiwu gradually realized that Lao Li had found a feasible method, but he really didn't understand the skill of gossip.So he gradually kept silent, watching Lao Li busy there alone. After one cigarette, the flame on the white wine gradually extinguished. The worm tried to jump over the flame, but the ground had been burned for a long time, and it lay there without running a few steps. I guess it was their feet. got burned.I quickly greeted Niqiong, lit the wooden stick wrapped in clothes in advance, and sprinkled the gunpowder in the bullet on it. Gradually, more and more bugs came to test, and the last piece of ground was full of bug corpses. After seeing it, I couldn't help being surprised and said, very smart bugs actually use the corpses of their companions as bridges for food, so I quickly took out the lighter , lit the torch, and then waved it vigorously, trying not to let those bugs approach, God knows what it feels like when bugs bite a living person. While Johnny and I were desperately fighting against the bugs, Lao Li's calculation behind us was coming to an end.Looking at the densely packed numbers on the ground and some incomprehensible modern words, Xu Zhiwu almost had no place to stand. Finally, Lao Li touched his forehead, turned around and walked to Jiuxinsuo, took a deep breath, and quickly After pressing the upper horizontal 4, the left vertical 7, and the lower horizontal 6 in the three vacancies of Jiuxin Lock, he actually opened the lock after hearing a few clicks from the spring inside the lock. Xu Zhiwu stared at Lao Li with wide eyes. At this moment, Lao Li's bright eyes gradually dimmed, and finally he passed out in front of the wooden door. Xu Zhiwu quickly stepped forward and shouted: "Xiao Luo, Niqiong hurry up!" The lock was opened, and Lao Li fell into a coma." After Jonny and I heard it, we tried our best to hold the torch that was about to go out for a while, crossed the last line of defense, picked up Lao Li and went straight to the wooden door.Then quickly close the wooden door.Then, outside the wooden door, the sound of the corpse being bitten just now was heard. The three of us touched the sweat on our foreheads at the same time. I checked Lao Li and found that he just passed out due to lack of energy, and the stone in his heart could be regarded as letting go.But the scene in front of us made the three of us dumbfounded? ? ?
