People are in the comprehensive tomb, unloading the mountain and stealing the chief

Chapter 216 Tonic and Test
"Yo! What kind of treasure is this? Immediate results are here." Wang Kaixuan looked at the porcelain vase in Ding Sitian's hand with glowing eyes, not even caring about the disappearance of the stone wall.

He thinks this thing is simply too powerful!
If you can get a body, then it will be safer to go to the tomb in the future.

Ding Sitian didn't hide it, and gave the answer directly: "This is the fragrance of refreshing spirit, too powerful illusion can't deal with it, so I can deal with it to this level, and I will touch Captain Jin's red douche Miaoxin Pill is almost the same."

"Red Candy Miaoxin Pill?" Wang Kai turned his head to look at Hu Bayi, and asked, "Old Hu, do you know this thing? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"One sentence exposes your ignorant nature." Hu Bayi habitually insulted him, and then explained: "This Honglian Miaoxin Pill is a secret medicine formulated by the ancestors of Mojin in the old days. It has been lost for many years, and it is said that it can neutralize the poison of corpses in ancient tombs, but I haven’t heard that it can also break illusions?”

He said the latter words while looking at Ding Sitian, and he was also surprised by what he said, as if he had learned something new.

"Strictly speaking, it's not a deciphering illusion, but the medicinal property of Hongyan Miaoxin Pill, which can resist slight hallucinations." Ding Sitian explained.

"Is that so..." Hu Bayi immediately understood what was going on.

At this moment, Chen Ziyan looked at the porcelain vase in Ding Sitian's hand, and suddenly asked, "The refreshing incense from Moon Gate?"

If Ding Sitian didn't mention the name, he really wouldn't have recognized that it was Xingshenxiang.

For the people of the Moon Gate, this thing is just like what Ding Sitian said, it is the same iconic item as Captain Mojin's Red Candy Miaoxin Pill.

It can be said that being able to produce this refreshing incense is equivalent to telling them that Ding Sitian's identity as the descendant of the Moon Gate.

Speaking of which, Moon Gate and Xiling Mountain have a deep connection. Leaving aside those long-standing past events, in his uncle's generation alone, there was a red girl who planted incense in Changsheng Mountain, and she was also his uncle's right-hand man at that time. with.

That's why Chen Ziyan asked such a question, because it represented his attitude towards Ding Sitian in the future.

Ding Sitian smiled and nodded at Chen Ziyan: "That's right, Moon Gate."

Ding Sitian was not surprised that Chen Ziyan recognized the source of what she had learned, and she was prepared when she took out the refreshing incense.

It's not that she knows the relationship between Moon Gate and Xiling, but she knows the meaning of Xingshenxiang. As long as it is a force whose inheritance has not been cut off, she can use this thing to determine her own master's inheritance.

To be honest, she was a bit puzzled that Hu Bayi didn't recognize him. This is not the behavior that an orthodox Mojin successor should have.

"Moon Gate...isn't it the line of ancient color tricks?" Hu Bayi heard the conversation between the two, and he also thought of some things in this regard.

Chen Ziyan nodded: "It's the one you thought of."

He knew that Hu Bayi was half-baked except for Feng Shui and military skills, so he was not surprised at all.

"Unexpectedly, Sitian, you still have such a chance to get the inheritance of the Moon Gate." Hu Bayi's tone was quite emotional.

He had heard from his grandfather that in those days, Moon Gate was famous because of the descendants of that generation.

Wang Kaixuan was confused and bored, so he interjected, "Can you tell me what happened just now? I'm still confused."

Now he thought about the Stonewall.

Hearing his words, Chen Ziyan and the others stopped talking. There will be opportunities to talk about the Moon Gate in the future, but the immediate matter is more important now.

Chen Ziyan looked at Wang Kaixuan, and asked with a smile, "Fatty, do you still remember what I said just now, that the stone wall moves with the sight?"

"I remember." Wang Kaixuan opened his mouth and answered.

Hearing this, Chen Ziyan showed a mysterious smile, and said slowly: "Actually, I lied to you, I didn't see this at all."

"Ah? Lied to us?" Wang Kaixuan exclaimed instantly, and said in disbelief, "How is this possible!"

One must know that not only himself, but everyone present has personally verified this matter.

Why is it fake now?
Hu Bayi was also puzzled: "Yes, Mr. Chen, we all saw it with our own eyes. Even if the stone wall is an illusion, it must be true that it can move."

Chen Ziyan explained with a smile: "Actually, I felt that something was wrong at the very beginning, but I didn't think about the problem for a while. It was not until later that I found out that I was different from the stone wall you saw. After trying it out, I thought of a way to verify whether it was a hallucination."

Hu Bayi was thoughtful: "So, Mr. Chen, your solution is to tell us something that didn't happen, and see if it will come true?"

"That's right." Chen Ziyan nodded, and continued: "Do you still remember when I said that the stone wall looked like a whole stone, and the fat man said it looked like an ancient city wall?"

Hu Ba nodded: "I remember."

He didn't pay much attention to this at the time, thinking that Chen Ziyan was wrong.

Now that I think about it, something is really wrong.

Chen Ziyan said: "At first I just vaguely felt that something was wrong, and it was this thing that made me really vigilant."

"Because after listening to the fat man, I found that the stone wall I saw began to change to what he described. I speculate that this may be an illusion of mapping the subconscious, so I deliberately told you that the stone wall will follow the sight. Moving is to completely confirm the guess in my heart."

Hu Bayi probably understood what Chen Ziyan wanted to express, and said: "So, this stone wall is a reflection of our subconscious mind, so it will change with our thoughts."

But then he had new doubts: "But it doesn't make sense. If this is the projection of our subconscious mind, how can everyone see the same stone wall except you, and we can also see yours together. The stick went through the stone wall."

Hearing Hu Bayi's question, Chen Ziyan explained the explanation he came up with: "I have thought about these too, and I can barely come up with an answer."

"Let's talk about the fact that the hallucinations we see are the same. In fact, it's not just me who is different. If you compare with each other, you will find that the stone walls we all see are different. It's just that the concept of stone walls, coupled with the ancient Tomb, age and other factors, so the content of the hallucinations you see will be similar."

This is a very simple truth, but no one has pointed out the key point, so it confuses everyone.

Now that Chen Ziyan broke it so little, the others immediately understood what was going on.

After Chen Ziyan gave them some time to react, he continued: "As for the short stick passing through the stone wall in the back, this is because this illusion is very clever, not only creating an illusion, but making everything in front of us illusory. Mixed with reality, that's why this happens."

Although he didn't know if his idea was completely correct, this was already the most likely explanation he could think of.

At this moment, Chen Ziyan saw Shirley Yang and Ding Sitian who were thinking behind, and then remembered that there were two experts present.

As long as anyone who is knowledgeable knows that the people of Moon Gate may know many things, but they must be best at illusion.

Not to mention Shirley Yang, the descendant of the mountain mover, their lineage is best at cracking mechanisms.

As soon as he thought about it, he acted on it. Chen Ziyan immediately looked at the two of them: "You two ladies, what do you think about this?"

Both Xue Liyang and Ding Sitian were thinking about something, they didn't expect that the spearhead would suddenly be pointed at themselves, they couldn't react immediately, they waited for a while to understand what happened.

The two women looked at each other, and then Ding Sitian spoke first, telling her discovery: "I feel that it is too easy to deal with it, something is wrong, you know the illusion that can make me fall into it unconsciously, It shouldn't be cracked so easily."

This is something that she doesn't understand.

It could be said that it was because of too long a period of time that the efficacy of the originally arranged medicine had decreased, but the fact that they didn't notice it showed that the efficacy of the medicine hadn't been lost too much.

But such an illusion that she couldn't understand for the time being was broken so easily, it was unreasonable to say the least.

How should I put it, it feels like... teasing her?
And at this moment, Shirley Yang suddenly pointed to the cave wall next to her and said, "This should be the culprit that caused us to fall into hallucinations."

Everyone looked over and saw that she had dug a small hole in the wall of the cave, revealing the hidden things inside.

It was a translucent jelly-like ball, and inside it was a triangular exquisite kit.

Although she didn't participate in the discussion just now, Xueli Yang was not idle either. Following the method taught by her grandfather Partridge Whistle, she successfully found this hidden illusion mechanism in the cave wall.

The first time Ding Sitian saw the kit, he had to hold his breath.

But Shirley Yang stopped her, pointed to the bottom of the jelly ball and said, "It's okay, the effect of the medicine inside should have dissipated."

Then she pointed the flashlight at that place, and saw that there was a metal tray at the bottom of the jelly ball. There was obviously a mechanism on the tray. The ball was punctured.

Apparently, this weird jelly ball is a container for sealing.

Approaching, Shirley Yang pulled out her dagger, and after testing a few times under the small hole, she successfully found a thin metal tube connected to the metal tray, which was undoubtedly a part of the mechanism in front of her.

Going all the way down the metal pipe, Shirley Yang quickly carved a two-finger-wide groove on the wall of the cave, and this groove continued to a certain place under their feet before stopping.

At the end of the groove is a metal piece buried in the ground. This metal piece is about ten centimeters long. The upper and lower sides are made of metal discs, and the connecting part is a dark brown gelatinous substance.

At this point in the matter, the mechanism that had just caused them to fall into the hallucination was completely displayed in front of them.

The principle of this organ is actually very simple, it is a set of organs activated according to pressure.

When someone walks into this area, the overall pressure exerted on the ground will press the metal parts underground, and the metal parts receiving the pressure will conduct the air stored inside through the thin metal tubes, thereby pushing the steel under the tray. The needle pierces the container that seals the kit, releasing the hallucinogenic drug stored inside.

"It seems very simple now, but it is hard to guard against. It is really a powerful method!" After understanding this, Chen Ziyan couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The technical content of this mechanism is not very high, but without prior knowledge, it is estimated that nine out of ten people will be recruited.

At least with the methods they use, there is no way to test it out.

Hu Bayi thought of another question: "Now it is basically certain that this mechanism was left by the senior who built the Fishbone Temple, but why did he leave such a time-consuming and laborious mechanism in the robbery hole where he entered the tomb?" What about the agency?"

He found it very confusing and couldn't guess the other party's purpose at all.

Although the principle of this mechanism is not very complicated, it is a delicate job to arrange it without any trace.

If the other party is to stop the latecomers, why not arrange some violent poisons, wouldn't the effect be better?

This is only the outer range of the robbery hole, with such an arrangement, no one knows what the other party has set up inside.

If they can't figure out the clue, Hu Bayi thinks it might be better for them to dig a new hole.

Not only Hu Bayi, Chen Ziyan also has this idea now.

He realized that something unexpected had happened in this robbery hole, which was not the case in the original plot.

"Sitian!"

At this moment, Hu Bayi's anxious cry interrupted Chen Ziyan's thoughts.

Following his line of sight, Chen Ziyan found that Ding Sitian had taken out the triangular kit at some point, and was holding it in front of his nose to sniff it.

Facing Hu Bayi's worry, Ding Sitian didn't make a sound, but raised her other hand, and the lid of the Xingshen Incense held on it had been opened.

Obviously, she was well prepared.

Under everyone's gaze, Ding Sitian's nostrils fluttered for a while, and then she murmured in a low voice: "Soil lice, wild lychee, wormwood, red ginseng... and old ginseng, cinnamon..."

After a while, Ding Sitian put the triangular kit into a sealed bag.

Wang Kaixuan was the most impatient. Seeing that she was fine, he asked, "Xiao Ding, did you smell anything?"

Hearing this, Hu Bayi quickly patted the guy and said, "Don't pay attention to this guy, are you feeling unwell?"

He cared more about Ding Sitian's body than what he found.

Ding Sitian waved her hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, Xue Li is right, the effect of the medicine in it has been exhausted."

Then she took out another porcelain bottle, poured some powder with a faint bitter taste from it, and motioned for everyone to rub the powder on people.

After everyone followed suit, he explained: "I just identified the medicinal materials in the kit and found that although this medicine can cause hallucinations, its real effect is blindly tonic."

Basically everyone who is good at illusion is an expert in pharmacology, and Ding Sitian is no exception.

Although it is not as accurate as the analysis of the equipment, it is enough for her to analyze the real effect of the hallucinogenic drug through the reverse deduction of the material.

"Tonic?" Wang Kaixuan's eyes widened: "Is it true or not?"

One thing to say, it was hard for him to believe this statement.

"It is indeed a tonic, but it is an incomplete tonic." Ding Sitian expressed his deduction: "Or it is the main medicine, but if there is no medicine, there will be side effects such as hallucinations."

"So..." Chen Ziyan looked at the powder on his fingertips and said, "Saltpeter is medicine?"

The moment he touched the powder, he already knew what it was.

Ding Sitian said: "Saltpeter is just one of the medicines. There are two kinds of medicines needed for this medicine. One is saltpeter, and the other is the Honglian Miaoxin Pill mentioned earlier."

"Then... what is the purpose of setting up organs and putting invigorating medicine here?" Hu Bayi said with a frown.

Chen Ziyan has an information advantage, so he knew who the senior Mo Jin was at the time, and what happened now, so he tentatively said, "Is it possible? This is a test? A test for qualification?"

He suspected that Jin Suan might have vaguely noticed something before entering the tomb, so he made such an arrangement.

The purpose is to screen latecomers and get rid of those who are not in the same line of money.
