Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 269 Next Door (4000)

After sending the dog into the mausoleum in this way, Wu Liang and others waited outside the mausoleum.

During the period, Wu Liang did not forget to ask Yu Ji for some things that might be helpful: "Old man, there is a saying in "Book of Changes": "In ancient times, Bao Xi was the king of the world. If you look up, you can see the image in the sky, and if you look down, you can see the law in the sky." Earth; the text of watching birds and beasts is suitable for the land; take the body near and take things far away, so I started to make gossip, to understand the virtue of the gods, and to understand the feelings of all things.', the art of geomanticism originated from the study of gossip , since you are proficient in this way, do you think it is easy to deal with the 'formation' that is also based on the Eight Diagrams and Yi Xue?"

"This... Young Master doesn't know something. Although Kanyu and Formation both originated from Bagua Yixue, the two are not the same."

Yu Ji pondered for a moment, and explained carefully for Wu Liang, "The art of geomancy lies in the observation of the ground, and the ground is dead, so as long as you master the laws, you will be invincible; but the way of formation is Human effort, changing the collocation of eight trigrams into 64 hexagrams, and any collocation of 64 hexagrams, can be said to be ever-changing and elusive. Although this old man is proficient in the art of fortune-telling, he never dares to say that he is proficient in formations."

"I see……"

Wu Liang concentrated on digesting for a moment, nodded and asked again, "So, although the old man is not proficient in the way of formation, he should still have some understanding, right?"

"If someone else asks this question, I'm afraid the old man will bring it up."

Yu Ji smiled apologetically at Wu Liang, and said, "But facing the young master, I'd better just say it straight. I can say that I only know six of the seven orifices of the way of the formation - I don't know anything. If the young master wants the old man to help arrange the formation , or to decipher some formations, the old man is really helpless, at most he can only explain some theories about gossip and Yi-learning for the young master."

"understood."

Wu Liang nodded slightly.

In fact, he didn't hold out much hope for Ji Ye.

Because Yu Jina loves to show off, if he really understands the way of formation, just now when Zhuge Xuan talked about the "formation" in the tomb, this old boy would have jumped out and volunteered, how could he let it go so easily? Such a good opportunity to pretend in front of everyone?
However, through Yu Ji's explanation just now, Wu Liang has gained some new understanding of the so-called formation.

It feels like the formation method is like a messed up combination lock, and the combination is in the hands of the person who arranged the formation method.

Others who want to crack the formation may need to find the correct password from the 64 hexagrams, and in most cases, there may only be one chance to try, as long as they fail, they may pay the price of their lives.

Just like the maze in this tomb that looks like a "formation", if Zhuge Xuan hadn't been cautious enough, it might not be the two dogs that died before, but himself.

Because of this, cracking the formation is almost impossible.

Of course, the formation method is not completely without rules and feasible.

Its core is Bagua Yixue.

This thing can be regarded as the program code of later generations. By freely combining easy-to-understand program codes, many completely different formations can be created.

And as long as the logical formula in the program code is cracked.

It is possible to freely access, copy, or even maliciously tamper with it like a hacker to completely paralyze the formation...

Therefore, if the maze in the tomb is really some kind of formation, or simply the "eight formations" that Wu Liang suspected, even if Yu Ji doesn't know the "way of formation", he can still play some role.

At least he is the most proficient in gossip and Yixue here.

It is possible to help Wu Liang interpret the core and laws of the formation during the investigation process, which is equivalent to Wu Liang carrying a "program code" translation with him, which is naturally indispensable.

"Young Master, if there is really a powerful formation in the tomb, we'd better not rush in. No matter how important the treasures in the tomb are, they are not as important as our lives."

Seeing Wu Liang thoughtful, Yu Ji persuaded him with some worry.

"Don't worry, I have my own measure, and if I can't untie the formation smoothly, I still have a powerful back move."

Wu Liang turned around and smiled.

"What a powerful back move?"

Yu Ji asked quickly.

Everyone also looked over curiously.

"secret."

Wu Liang smiled mysteriously.

……

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

Only ten minutes later, Wu Liang rushed to the tomb and used the ancient and modern dog-calling language-tsk tongue.

The reason why it is called the dog-calling language that is common in ancient and modern times is because it is not the first time Wu Liang has seen a dog since he came to this era, and he has seen many people call the dog in this way.

Even the dog of Zhuge's family is the same.

When Wu Liang came to visit a few days ago, this big yellow dog kept circling around him wagging its tail. That's how Zhuge Liang's mother called the dog away.

"Wooooow! Woofwoof!"

The barking of the big yellow dog came from the tomb immediately, it didn't sound too far away, and it could be heard from the barking that the dog's physical condition was quite good.

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

Wu Liang continued to call it.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

The big yellow dog also kept responding to him in the tomb, and its barking gradually became eager, and occasionally it would make an impatient "chi chi chi chi" sound.

But Wu Liang waited outside for a while, but he never saw the big yellow dog running out of the tomb.

And during this process, as Wu Liang kept calling it, he could also hear the sound of the big yellow dog's paws running fast on the ground, and even scratching the wall non-stop.

But there is no trace of the big yellow dog.

"Have you been trapped in it so soon?"

Wu Liang frowned slightly, it seemed that what Zhuge Xuan said just now was true.

And the actual situation seemed to be more serious than what Zhuge Xuan said, it didn't take a few hours at all, the big yellow dog got lost in it just after entering for a while.

Wu Liang feels that it can be judged as:
Whether it is a person or an animal, as long as they enter the tomb, they will be immediately affected by the so-called "array", and it has no direct relationship with the time they stay inside.

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

Wu Liang still had the last bit of luck in his heart, so he tried to call again.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

The situation still hasn't changed, even this time the big yellow dog's voice seems to be a little further away than before.

"Jingjing, what did you hear?"

Wu Liang turned around and asked.

"Except for the sound of the yellow ear running and scratching the wall, I didn't hear any other movement, not even the slightest."

Bai Jingjing said truthfully.

"If this is the case, we can basically rule out the possibility of traps being set up in the tomb passage."

Wu Liang murmured.

The "mechanism" he understands is the kind of mechanical mechanism that can reverse the direction of the tomb passage, move the wall of the tomb passage, or change the shape of the wall.

This kind of mechanism will make the tomb passage change at any time, so as to achieve the effect of trapping people or animals in it.

However, there is a common problem with mechanical mechanisms, that is, there will be some sounds when they are in operation. This is a difficult problem that has not been solved by future generations after nearly 2000 years, and it is naturally impossible to solve it now.

"Wow, woof, chirp, chirp..."

The big yellow dog was still barking eagerly in the tomb.

Wu Liang came back to his senses, and then tied one end of the "silkworm silk" he carried with him and Dian Wei, and handed the other end to Yang Wanli, and said: "Jingjing, old man, Yang Wanli, I will go in with Dian Wei. Look for this yellow ear, the three of you stay here temporarily, so that you can take care of Silkworm God Baosi, if you hear me and Dianwei calling, immediately pull the rope to lead us out."

"Yes."

Yang Wanli responded quickly.

Bai Jingjing seemed a little worried, but when she heard Wu Liang's last words, she finally said nothing, but nodded slightly.

She has the best hearing. If Wu Liang and Dian Weizhen have any problems and call for help, even if the voice is weaker, she can still hear it. Staying here can protect Wu Liang's safety to a certain extent.

"Should I also bring the old man with me? Although the old man doesn't know how to form a formation, he still wants to go in and see it with his own eyes."

On the other hand, Yu Ji volunteered, which is very rare. You must know that just now, this old boy still had a look of panic.

It can be seen that the "way of formation" is also very attractive to him, and it can actually offset the fear in his heart.

"Don't worry, old man. Dian Wei and I went in this time for preliminary investigation. You are weak in strength. You should rest here for a while. There will be plenty of opportunities later."

Wu Liang smiled.

"Since the young master said so, this old man should follow his orders."

Only then did Yu Ji retreat to the side silently, but suddenly puffed up his eyes and shouted at Yang Wanli, "What are you thinking about, young man? How can you just hold Baosi with both hands? Wouldn't Dian Wei be able to get out? Hurry up and wrap Baosi around these two wooden stakes a few more times!"

"I'm about to..."

Yang Wanli hurriedly followed suit, but when he was done, he felt upset, and immediately retorted, "You old bastard, I once saved your life, it's okay if you don't appreciate it, but you did it in front of the young master. Scold me, how can there be such an ungrateful black-hearted old man like you in the world!"

"Speaking of this matter, the old man has not pursued the matter that you almost broke the old man's morality!"

Hearing this, Yu Ji jumped up even more.

"Bah! I'm bah! I'm bah! I'll spit back the half grain of corn in your tooth socket to you first, I'm sick of you old bastard!"

Yang Wanli spat in the air angrily, without any image at all.

You must know that this guy is now serving as a military officer in the Turen Army anyway, and he is considered a senior officer, so he acted so naively like a child, it is really a bit disregarding face.

"If you dare to spit on this old man, this old man will spit on you too. Pooh! Pooh! I spit on you!"

"Wu Youcai, don't you care about them?"

Afraid of being affected by the two of them, Bai Jingjing quickly hid aside, but she did not forget to ask Wu Liang for help.

It's not the first time Wu Liang saw the two of them, and it's no surprise at the moment, he just smiled coquettishly and said: "As the saying goes, 'Beating is kissing and scolding is love, and if you don't beat or scold, you don't love each other', if you don't fall in love In the depths, how could they exchange saliva so enthusiastically, I think it's better to let them go."

"?!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Wanli and Yu Ji immediately fell silent.

"..."

After Bai Jingjing reacted for a while, her pretty face blushed instantly, and then she gave Wu Liang a hard look, and stomped her feet and turned away.

"Old man, Yang Wanli, I wish you happiness...but be careful not to miss the business."

Seeing that he easily resolved a dispute with a single sentence, Wu Liang was also quite proud, and led Dian Wei into the tomb passage with his chest straightened out like a victorious general...

……

Wu Liang's "silkworm silk" is only about twenty feet long, which is about seventy meters when converted into the measurement unit of later generations.

And Zhuge Xuan had used more than fifty feet of hemp rope when exploring the tomb before, and he still didn't go through the entire tomb passage...

Therefore, Wu Liang knew very well that the "silkworm silk" was not long enough, and he didn't expect to get many things that Zhuge Xuan hadn't found in the first inspection.

He's going to do it this time.

It is to figure out the specific environment in the tomb passage, and to verify some of my previous assumptions.

So after entering the tomb passage, Wu Liang and Dian Wei walked very slowly.

Almost every few meters he walked, he stopped to carefully observe the walls and ground conditions of the tomb passage, never letting go of any clues that might be useful.

But the situation is not too optimistic.

After many observations, he found that there was nothing special about the walls and ground in the tomb passage. The materials used were nothing more than ordinary stone bricks and mortar, and the craftsmanship was not outstanding.

And he deliberately made a simple vertical level with a rope and his gold ring zero.

Gold is not affected by ordinary magnetism or magnetic fields like iron, so the rope hanging from the zero gold ring is a standard vertical line.

After many measurements and comparisons, he found that the walls and the ground of the tomb passage are also very standard vertical lines, and there is no slight deviation in both horizontal and vertical directions. In addition, there are no upward or downward steps inside. , the possibility of setting a sensory trap similar to the principle of "hanging soul ladder" can be basically ruled out here.

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

There was no noteworthy discovery in this regard, so Wu Liang changed his direction and called the big yellow dog trapped in the tomb again.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

The barking of the big yellow dog came immediately.

This time it sounds very close, as if there is only a wall between him!
"Dian Wei, this way!"

Wu Liang immediately ran forward with Dian Wei.

The big yellow dog's barking was obviously in a direction they hadn't been to yet, and they hadn't walked through the fork road they needed to choose at the moment, so they could only continue to search forward.

There is indeed a "concave" bend in the tomb passage not far in front. Wu Liang and Dian Wei can reach the other side of the tomb wall after passing through this bend.

And the barking of the Big Yellow Dog just now sounded from this side.

however.

When Wu Liang and Dian Wei turned around, they didn't see the big yellow dog on this side!
"It's strange, just now it's just next door. Could it be that Huang Er ran in the wrong direction after hearing my call, and ran deeper instead?"

Wu Liang was puzzled, and hurriedly called out again: "Tsk tsk tsk!"

"Wang Wang Wang!"

This time the barking of the big yellow dog was still very close, and it was still next door.

It's just the "next door" this time.

But it was the side that Wu Liang and Dian Wei just passed by!
