In the old days, some jugglers specialized in performing bone-shrinking exercises.
A very small number of craftsmen use internal qigong to eliminate excess qi from the body so that they can squeeze through narrow gaps.
More often than not, I have learned the skill of dislocating my joints since I was a child, and I can take off my own joints anytime and anywhere.
The last method is to apply badger seed oil to each protruding joint.
This principle is similar to a cat drilling a hole. As long as the joints can pass through the gap, other body parts can also pass through!
Uncle Ya wants us to use badger seed oil to escape!
I looked at this bottle of badger seed oil and said nothing for a long time.
Since this is what Uncle Ya intentionally left for me, it means he wants us to run away.
And he should have a way to save us!
I lowered my voice and whispered, "We're saved!"
I held the bottle in my mouth and carefully applied it to my joints.
But my current posture is very awkward, so I can only apply a little bit.
The rest can only be pulled out with brute force!
I gritted my teeth as if I was constipated, and all the muscles that could exert force were mobilized by me.
Although badger seed oil can provide a lot of lubrication, the shackles are made of cast iron and the corners are jagged.
With a little force, I immediately got a few deep and long wounds on my hand.
The sewage under my feet made me a little more wary. Once the wound is infected by the dirty water, it is likely to cause trouble.
After thinking about it, I gritted my teeth again, it would be better than losing my life!
I kept adjusting the angle to try to avoid getting hurt as much as possible.
After a lot of struggling, my arm was finally freed from the shackles.
And my hands are already riddled with holes.
Ignoring the pain in my hands, I kept my voice low.
"Wait for me to save you!"
Before the excitement was over, a difficult problem was once again placed in front of me.
This cell is made of wood, and the gaps between the wood are less than a fingertip apart. I can't get out at all!
There was so little badger seed oil on my hands that I couldn’t apply it all over my body.
I was so anxious that I went to the room, but there was nothing I could do.
I forced myself to calm down and recalled every detail of Uncle Ya in my mind.
He is so smart, he must have expected this.
Uncle Ya must have left a way out!
"Fan, fan..."
Suddenly, I thought of what he said while knocking.
"Don't look at my fan bone that has been with me all my life. If I hit you, I think it's dirty! I don't want it anymore!"
right! It must be the fan bone!
Thinking of this, I immediately pulled off the fan surface and carefully unfolded the fan bones.
I touched it up and down, and there was indeed a mystery!
This fan bone is sword-shaped, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, with a slight bulge in the front.
Just at the raised position, you can clearly feel a hard object!
I pulled it out hard, and a black wire appeared in front of me.
This is what Uncle Ya left for me to survive!
I looked at the iron wire and then at the iron lock on the door, and I could only lament that it was fate.
So what if we have this wire?
I can't pick the lock!
Lockpicking is a very technical job and cannot be solved by luck.
Looking at the wire in front of me, I just felt that there was nothing I could do except worry about letting the eunuch go to the brothel.
"Are you OK?"
After a while, Chen Jiayan asked softly.
I recovered, sighed, and told the truth.
There was a splashing noise from Chen Jiayan's side, and she didn't know what was going on.
"This is a bastard who picks the lock."
Chen Jiayan murmured, and there was another sound of rushing.
My heart suddenly sank. This was just adding insult to injury.
The so-called four-opening lock means that there are several lock cylinders inside.
Ordinary iron locks are single-opening, while slightly more complex anti-theft doors are six-way locks.
And now I have to use a few wires to break through these four locks, which is simply a fantasy!
After a moment, her voice came over again: "If you do as I say, you can almost open it."
I suddenly became energetic: "Do you still have this skill?"
Chen Jiayan's low smile came over: "You learned Luban Shu in vain?"
"There is a turning lock in Lu Ban's technique, which can also be opened four times. The principles of mechanisms and other things are similar."
I looked down and suddenly felt something was wrong.
"It doesn't seem right. The head of my lock is in the shape of a scorpion, and the keyhole is in the shape of '吉". "
I turned around and asked in the direction of Ji Canghai, "What kind of lock is that on your side?"
"It's a bird head."
Chen Jiayan suddenly sighed: "It's over. These three locks are completely different. They are probably afraid that we will escape."
It was only then that I realized how dangerous this water prison was.
It can be said that there are many mechanisms and every step is unpredictable.
"Now I can only rely on my memory."
A moment later, Chen Jiayan's voice came again.
Her voice was obviously much lower, and she obviously had no confidence.
I hesitated and wanted to confirm with her: "This is equivalent to opening blindly, right?"
"yes."
I took a deep breath: "Come on."
The lives and fortunes of three people depend on me.
The time, place, and people are favorable, but if the same thing is missing today, we can't escape.
"First insert the wire into the top keyhole, don't insert it all the way, and listen to see if there is any sound."
I did as Chen Jiayan asked, and there was a faint click from the door lock.
I immediately became excited: "It seems to work!"
"It's broken!" Chen Jiayan's voice became louder: "There is a gate inside this lock!"
"You only have one chance. If you fail, the gate will fall and the wire will be cut, and the keyhole will be completely sealed!"
As soon as I heard this, I suddenly started sweating profusely.
The keyhole is sealed, which means our way of survival is cut off.
Isn't it a joke to ask a layman like me to do this job?
I tentatively asked, "How about I pull it out first?"
"No!" Chen Jiayan repeatedly stopped: "Pull it out will destroy the structure inside, and you can't insert it anymore!"
While he was talking, there were suddenly several noises at the entrance of the water prison.
"Squeak..."
The solid wooden door was pushed open, and two burly bald men walked in.
