After listening to his explanation, Achang basically understood the mystery.
Although it sounds magical, is there any reasonable explanation now?
Lin Yi looked back at him.
"I know you don't believe it. We can do an experiment. Now turn around and go back. When we come back here later, this exit will definitely disappear."
After saying that, Lin Yi put away his notebook, picked up his backpack, and headed back the way he came with a flashlight.
Achang lowered his head and followed him dubiously.
After they rounded an arc-shaped bend, they felt as if they had regained the feeling they had before, no matter how hard they rounded, Lin Yi raised his wrist and glanced at the time, turned around, and pointed forward. .
"Let's go, the next step is to witness the miracle!"
Achang followed him, and the two of them quickened their pace and covered almost the same distance, taking about the same amount of time.
The exit that should have appeared in front of them just disappeared.
Lin Yi reached out and tapped the case of his watch.
"From the time we entered this maze to the time you bungee jumped, there was an interval of about thirty minutes, which is about as long as a stick of incense.
I think these eight holes do not appear randomly, but have a fixed time pattern.
Just like the revolving door in a hotel, when the time comes, this exit will inevitably appear.
We have been walking for more than ten minutes just now. Now we stop to rest. When it is almost half an hour, we continue walking. The entrance to the cave will definitely appear! "
As time passed by, the alarm set by Lin Yi rang.
He put away his notebook.
"Let's go over and have a look!"
The two of them quickened their pace, almost jogging forward. Without even reaching the entrance of the cave, Achang could already feel the cold, damp air coming towards them.
This obviously confirmed Lin Yi's thoughts.
"Boss Lin, I'm convinced!"
Lin Yi stood at the entrance of the cave and shouted loudly:
"Lao Wang, you haven't moved anywhere, have you?"
"No! I just don't know what happened. The exit suddenly disappeared. About half an hour later, it appeared again."
"Do you feel a sense of déjà vu?"
Lin Yi asked.
Wang Qiang was thinking about it, but Bai Lu had already reacted.
"Brother Qiang, do you think this looks like the tomb passage mechanism we encountered under the desert?"
After Bai Lu's reminder, Wang Qiang immediately remembered the concluding mechanism tomb passage.
"I remembered!"
"Imagine this mechanism as a revolving door. It appears basically once every half an hour. As long as the hole it rushes out appears, there will definitely be a corresponding entrance inside.
But I still don't know which one of the eight passages this entrance is in.
As long as we find this entrance, we can enter the next level. "
Lin Yi told Wang Qiang and the others the essential information to crack this mechanism.
The problem now is that these channels don't seem to be connected to each other.
If there was a way to get to the next door passage, this problem would be solved.
"Do you think it's possible for us to find the way back?"
Qian Sheng put forward his own ideas.
"But Brother Sheng, it's not like we haven't tried it before. After we go back, we circle around and come back to the same place."
Min Tun replied.
Wang Qiang suddenly stretched out his hand.
"Wait a minute, I seem to have a feeling. Listen to me, when we came in, we made an arc, and then we couldn't get out at all. In addition, what Lao Lin just analyzed, do you think this passage looks like it? Like a Tai Chi diagram?"
"Tai Chi diagram?"
"That's right, it's the Tai Chi diagram. The passage is like the dividing line between the yin and yang fish in the middle of the Tai Chi diagram. After we come in from this end, we walk forward, pass the center point, continue walking down, and we're here.
But when this place turns around like this, we are trapped inside. If we walk like this and go back to the end where we came in, can we find the entrance? Then we can find another entrance to get in, can we? Find the exit. "
When Wang Qiang explained, it was like a tongue twister.
The four people around him looked at him blankly.
"Brother Qiang, why don't you just speak Mandarin."
"What the hell I'm talking about is Mandarin."
"But why can't we understand a word?"
Wang Qiang waved his hand.
"Hey, it doesn't matter if he understands it or not, as long as he understands the meaning. Come on, let's go explore the road."
After saying that, Wang Qiang stood up and started walking back along the path with the four of them, holding his watch and walking back.
According to Wang Qiang's inference just now, after calculating the time, the stopping position should be the center of the Tai Chi circle.
"Now this step is very critical. If you want to connect with the road we came in, we must keep walking forward against the wall on the left. Only then can we follow the dividing line in the Tai Chi diagram to the entrance."
After saying that, he led the four people to stick to the wall on the left and kept walking forward with their heads lowered. They didn't know how many times they went around here. Just when the timer on the phone started to remind, the hole where they came in was revealed. , as expected, appeared in front of several people.
"It's done! Brother Qiang, we are really on the right track!"
"Brother Qiang, you are so awesome. How did you come up with this idea?"
"Brother Lin has never solved the mystery. You thought of it. It's amazing!"
Several people praised him loudly, which made Wang Qiang feel a little embarrassed.
"Don't, don't, don't, I'm just lucky, my brain suddenly flashed, and my ancestor appeared.
Now that we know the doorway here, we will divide into two groups. Tiezi and I will go together, and Laosan and Lulu will take Minton along. If anyone finds the downward passage, they will come to the entrance. Make a big triangular mark on the ground to make sure you know the time. "
Two groups of people, every fifteen minutes, got into the passage again.
This method of solving the maze is the most time-consuming, but now there is no other way out except this method.
Several hours passed like this.
Wang Qiang and Tie Zhui got into the passage for the second time, and successfully found the exit according to the previous method, and told Lin Yi and others about this method.
When Lin Yi heard this, he immediately understood what he meant and was full of praise for Wang Qiang's performance.
Following this method, the two of them returned to the entrance again, and then waited for the next change of the entrance of the cave as if they were waiting for a bus.
Unexpectedly, this time a huge triangular mark appeared in front of them.
This means that someone has already walked through this passage, and this passage can lead to the next level.
"Let's go. If you don't go to the next class, you don't know what will happen!"
Lin Yi raised the flashlight and got into the passage with Achang.
The situation inside looked no different from other passages, until they reached the center of the circle on time, and finally a wooden staircase extending downwards appeared in front of them.
There are several messy footprints printed on it.
