Chapter 143 Arrow mechanism
With the strength of the three people in one place, the iron chain was slowly pulled up, a series of clattering, clattering sounds filled the entire stone room.

At the beginning, the iron chain was very jerky, and the three of them had to use a lot of strength to pull it a little bit, but as the pulled out chain became longer and longer, it was no longer necessary to use too much strength to pull it out. The iron chain was pulled. It seems that this is because after the iron chain was pulled, the dust that blocked the iron chain had been rubbed away, so the iron chain was pulled smoothly.

When pulling the iron chain, Chen Ziyang had been carefully observing the direction of the iron chain. Unlike what he had imagined before, the pulling of the iron chain did not move the string of coffins behind, and all the coffins were still in the original position. The ground did not move, but as the iron chains were pulled, Chen Ziyang observed that these iron chains seemed to be connected together.

The iron chains in the entire one-eighth fan-shaped area are being pulled accordingly. The iron chains come in from one coffin, and are pulled out from another hole in this coffin, and are pulled among countless coffins. with.At the end of the iron chain, one of the iron chains connected to the octagonal coffin was also being pulled along, but the octagonal coffin did not change significantly as the iron chain was pulled.

In general, Chen Ziyang had already understood the movement of the iron chain, but just as he was wondering the effect of the iron chain being pulled down, he heard a very crisp sound coming from the coffin connected to the potter's wheel on the previous floor. There was a clicking sound.

Hearing this crisp sound, the three of them stopped their movements at the same time. The sound was obvious. It was the sound of some organ in the coffin being pulled after the iron chain was pulled to a certain extent.All three stood there quietly, waiting for the next thing to happen.But the three of them waited for a long time, and the coffins in front of them were still lying there quietly.

"Er Yang, what's going on? Why didn't you move? Should we keep pulling, or wait a little longer." Yang Lei asked.

Chen Ziyang stroked the beard stubble on his chin, and thought about it for a while, then said, "Go ahead and pull it, maybe it didn't reach the place." At the end, hearing the crisp sound, it was obvious that a mechanism like a spring had been activated, but for some reason, the coffin in the center was still not opened.

This time, Chen Ziyang didn't turn the pulley because he didn't need to use too much force to pull it. Instead, he walked to the side, wanting to continue to observe the direction of movement of the iron chain. These chains were pulled for a meter or so.With the pulling of the iron chain, Chen Ziyang suddenly saw the lids of more than a dozen coffins popping out into the air.

The sudden loud noise startled Yang Lei and San Shishuai, and they quickly stopped what they were doing, lowered their heads and squatted on the ground.Immediately afterwards, in these dozens of coffins that were suddenly opened, countless arrows shot straight into the air.

Seeing the sudden change, Chen Ziyang was so frightened that he quickly squatted on the ground with his head in his arms, and at the same time rolled to the side, hiding in the blind corner of a coffin next to him. At the same time, he was still thinking in his heart that this mechanism It's really strange, why do these arrows shoot straight into the air, what's the use of this?Can't hurt anyone?But what happened next made him slap himself a big mouth in his heart.

The top of this stone room is all rocks. In other words, the entire stone room is actually built in a huge horizontal crack in the mountain. When he first entered this stone room, Chen Ziyang once observed the inside of this stone room. The rock top is three or four meters high from the ground.

He found that the top of the rock was uneven, but he didn't pay attention to it at the time. It was normal. Anyway, this rock was used as a roof, so there was no need to make it so smooth, but now Chen Ziyang discovered these unevenness. The usefulness of the top of the rock, it turns out that the top of the rock was deliberately designed like this.

When the arrows were shot straight upwards, they touched these uneven rocks, and then the arrows changed their direction under the action of the slope of the rocks, instead of shooting straight upwards, they changed their direction, heading towards They shot down in all directions, as if arrows were raining down from the sky.

The scene in front of him made Chen Ziyang think of the kind of weapon that can explode in mid-air that appeared in those gunfight movies. There are many steel needles hidden in this weapon, because it was exploded in mid-air, although these steel needles The needles are fired in a straight line, but if the height is high enough, people hiding behind the bunker will also have a part of their bodies exposed within the range of the steel needles. This is a 360-degree attack with no dead ends.

Although the strength of these arrows weakened when they touched the rock, but because the distance was relatively short, these arrows still had a strong force after changing direction, and it was not difficult to penetrate the human body.Chen Ziyang, who was hiding behind the coffin, could only hug his head tightly at this moment, praying in his heart, hoping that no arrows would hit him.

Although only a few tens of seconds passed from the time the arrow was fired until it stopped, to Chen Ziyang, these tens of seconds seemed as long as an hour had passed.When the stone room returned to calm, Chen Ziyang felt that his underwear was soaked in sweat.

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, how are you doing?" When the arrows stopped, Chen Ziyang heard Yang Lei's shout from his side, Chen Ziyang was thinking in his heart, it's strange, Yang Lei is here Who should I call brother-in-law?

"Si Leizi, who are you calling brother-in-law?"

"Wang Ming, he is Wang Lele's younger brother. Isn't that your brother-in-law? It's your brother-in-law, that is, my brother-in-law. Go and have a look. I heard him shout just now."

"What time is this? You still have the heart to be poor here." After giving Yang Lei a blank look, Chen Ziyang quickly walked to Wang Ming's side, but he was shocked when he saw that Wang Ming was seriously injured.He planted three arrows in total, one was stuck in his shoulder, and two were stuck in his left thigh, and these three arrows were all piercing wounds, which shows how powerful these arrows are. .

The arrow that hit Wang Ming was exactly like the crossbow arrow they encountered in the passage before, it was a copper-pipe arrow with the word "Shi Wei" engraved on the tail, and the arrow was hollow. Fortunately, these arrows completely penetrated Wang Ming's body, and did not play a role in bloodletting. Although Wang Ming's expression was very painful, it seemed that his life should be safe.

After the arrow stopped, Xiao Na and Wang Dawei quickly checked the situation of everyone in the team. Except for Wang Ming who was the most injured, only two other team members had scratches, and Wang Ming was quite unlucky, because he The place where he hid before was very empty, and there was nothing he could use to hide from, so he was hit by three arrows.

Under Xiao Na's signal, an opponent came over and pulled out the arrow from Wang Ming's body, and sprinkled hemostatic powder on the wound to bandage him up.Every time an arrow was pulled out and every time this white hemostatic powder was sprinkled on it, Wang Ming always screamed in pain.

But seeing his full confidence when he screamed, Chen Ziyang also let go of his heart. Her sister is still in a coma in order to save herself from an accident. Although there is a solution now, she doesn't know if she can survive Take the antidote out. At this time, Wang Ming must not have anything to do, otherwise, when Wang Lele is rescued, he will not know how to face her.

Just when Xiao Na organized the wounded and was about to let them leave this stone room temporarily, Xiao Na discovered that just now, when the arrow mechanism was triggered, in the crack in the mountain where they came in, at some point, a Many, many wrist-thick iron bars have been sealed off their escape route.

Looking at these iron bars, Chen Ziyang knew that this was deliberately designed by the design agency. If someone who entered this stone room knew how to open the treasure, then these iron bars would not fall down. However, if they entered here If some people use the wrong method, they will touch these arrow organs. In that case, it will prove that the people who came here are not descendants of the ancient Bohai country, so it is reasonable to seal them inside.

But Chen Ziyang felt that this kind of mechanism should not be completely sealed, and should be able to be opened again, because the designer of the mechanism would consider that it might be a real descendant of the ancient Bohai Kingdom, and accidentally made a mistake when opening the mechanism. This possibility means that at least people like myself still have at least one chance to continue to open these coffin organs, but if they make another mistake, it is very likely that they will be lost forever.

Just when Chen Ziyang was thinking carefully about what they did wrong, Shuai Sanshi walked over and told him a very important clue.It turned out that when the arrow mechanism was triggered just now, although Shuai Shi was avoiding these arrows like everyone else, his attention was always on the iron chain they pulled before, and he was in the middle of the arrow launch. At the time, he saw that the iron chain was being pulled backwards and outwards.

Before the three civil engineers heard a click, they continued to pull the iron chain, and after pulling it for about one meter, these explanation mechanisms were triggered, but as the arrow was shot, the iron chain was automatically Backing up in the opposite direction, after about a meter or so, Commander Umbrella heard the sound of the mechanism closing again, and after that, the shooting arrows stopped.

Hearing what Shuai Sanshi said, Chen Ziyang suddenly realized, and at the same time gave Shuai Sanshi a thumbs up in his heart. This is why Shuai Sanshi, a man who has been a soldier and has been in the field for a long time, was able to survive the chaotic scene just now. , is still watching the movements of these agencies, if it is on its own, it may never be able to discover the key.

It turned out that their first step was not wrong, but they were wrong on the second step. After the mechanism is closed, they should not continue to pull the iron chain. If they continue to pull, then the mechanism inside will be triggered.

However, when the mechanism was closed, the coffin in the middle was not opened. In other words, the mechanism of the potter's wheel in the first coffin has been used up, and the rest should be to pull the remaining seven coffins. in this organ.In other words, each organ can only be pulled once, so the most important thing is which of the remaining seven organs should be pulled first and which one should be pulled last.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang scratched his head, and thought carefully, the eight coffins containing organs coincided with the location of the gossip, there is no doubt about it, the mechanism that should be opened in the first step was ignorant of them by accident. Right, but what about the remaining seven?I am not a descendant of the ancient country of Bohai, so I don't know the order of pulling the organs.

Chen Ziyang regretted it very much at this time, why didn't these people retreat outside the stone room before he was fully sure to pull the mechanism? In that case, at least they have a support person outside now, and now everyone is trapped It's not easy to die here.

Although Xiao Na is now leading a few people to study the iron bars that seal the crack in the mountain, Chen Ziyang knows that it is really difficult to open these iron bars in a short time according to the equipment they have. It's hard to beat the sky.

The only way now is to crack the mechanism in front of him as soon as possible, because Chen Ziyang has a very bad feeling in his heart. If he is the designer of these mechanisms, after the first mechanism has an error, if he does not continue The correct opening sequence means that these people in the tomb must not be descendants of the ancient Bohai Kingdom. They don't know the real sequence of opening the organs, so the subsequent organs may continue to be activated in a short time.

Although Chen Ziyang had a sense of luck, he felt that there was an eighty-nine out of ten chance that it should be like this.From the moment I opened the gate of this Bohai underground palace, I was shocked by the sophistication of the mechanisms in this underground palace. It is very difficult for the designers of these mechanisms to add a delay trigger mechanism to these exquisite mechanisms. It was not difficult, a sense of urgency filled his heart.

Now the only clue is the gossip, Chen Ziyang hurriedly touched his body, wanted to take out the compass he carried with him, and use the gossip on it to give himself some hints, although he also knew that the hints from the compass might not be of much use , but it's better than staring at the mechanism in front of you and dreaming in a daze.

When Chen Ziyang was feeling for the compass in his pocket, he suddenly felt two hard objects. At this moment, he suddenly thought that these two objects were exactly what Wang Chuan asked Yu Linglong to copy. Those two imitation gold gears.

In order to let Chen Ziyang crack the mechanism before, Xiao Na handed over the two gears to him, but because they were of no use, Chen Ziyang also forgot the existence of these two things.At this moment, under this condition, he remembered that these two things were still on his body.

Taking out these two imitation gold gears from his pocket, Chen Ziyang held them in his hands and looked at them carefully. One gear showed the sun-shaped pattern on the front, while the other gear showed the sun pattern on the front. It is a pattern like a river on the back.

After the combination of these two patterns, it was Chen Ziyang who found the dragon-hunting formula of the Bohai Underground Palace, but Chen Ziyang always felt that these two patterns were not only useful, he always felt that these patterns had other uses.At this time, because there was no way to decipher this mechanism in the underground palace, Chen Ziyang focused his attention on the patterns of these two gears.

After looking carefully for a while, Chen Ziyang's eyes lighted up, could it be so simple!
