However, Chu Di supported her sister's suggestion. Going up is courting death, and going down is courting death, but if you don't go up or down, you can only wait here to starve to death, which is equivalent to a living person being suffocated to death.
So he said: "Since you will die no matter what, why not give it a try? Even if you risk your life, it is better than starving to death, right?"
No matter compared to anyone, Chu Di is the one who is least afraid of death, because his life is inherently precarious. If he is asked to choose a way to die, he will definitely choose the most vigorous one.
Li Li and others did not understand this truth, so they did not refute Chu Di's statement.
Chu Di added: "Which is the lesser of two evils. Will you die faster if you go into the cave or die faster if you go up? Do you have any idea?"
Huang Ling said: "Of course there is judgment. If you go up, you will die and die quickly. If you go down, you will not necessarily die, and you may come back. I hope that we will not be discovered by the cave people after we go down. We can just hide and find food secretly to survive for a while. When time comes back here, the limelight above will pass, and we can sneak out quietly."
Li Li said: "Your hope is too idealistic. Not to mention whether you can be discovered by the cavemen if you go on, but how to go down? Do you know?"
Huang Ling said: "Of course I don't know, but I think since Mr. Yu from Long's Pharmaceutical can enter the cave from here, it means that this is indeed the way to the cave. Let's try our best to find it, it is better than waiting to die here in vain." Bar?"
Chu Di supported her sister and said, "In that case, let's study how to get through this passage."
Li Li rolled her eyes at Chu Di and said, "It's easy to say, can this be studied?" Then she asked Huang Ling, "Do you know how to get through this passage?"
Huang Ling shook her head and said, "I don't know, but I think we should check it out first."
Tao Bao suddenly said: "What's so difficult about this? There is a teleportation array at the bottom of this pit, called the Eight-Door Golden Lock Teleportation Array. If we use modern technology to name it, it is an artificial time and space channel."
Tao Bao's words surprised everyone, and Li Li asked, "How do you know this?"
Tao Baodao: "The ancient Chinese formation belongs to Qimen Dunjia. Qimen Dunjia is a branch of Chinese arithmetic. I study mathematics, so of course I know."
Li Li questioned: "Qi Men Dun Jia is mathematics? It's really unheard of."
Tao Baodao: "That's because you are ignorant. You should know about Huang Yaoshi, the owner of Taohua Island, and his daughter Huang Rong during the Song Dynasty, right? These are two people who studied Qi Men Dun Jia. Huang Rong once competed with Ying Gu in arithmetic and defeated Ying Gu. Why does she know arithmetic? Do you know?"
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that Qimen Dunjia was really closely related to arithmetic.
Chu Di couldn't help being pleasantly surprised, but still had doubts. He asked, "Isn't the Eight-door Golden Lock Formation a method used by ancient military strategists? How can it be used for time and space transmission?"
Tao Baodao: "The so-called Eight-Door Golden Lock Formation is actually a variant of the Bagua Formation. The Bagua Formation is derived from the Book of Changes. It can be used to hide soldiers and trap enemies, or to escape. There are so many types of Bagua, even Women gossiping about others behind their backs is a form of gossip."
Tao Bao's words immediately aroused the common hatred of Li, Huang, and Chen, and they all responded coldly. Chu Di felt the pressure around him and quickly changed the topic: "You know so much, I'm convinced. How did you know that this place is here?" From the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation?"
Tao Bao pointed to the ground under his feet and said: "I didn't think about it at first. Just after hearing what your sister said, I looked at the structure at the bottom of the pit. Look at your feet. Are they divided into nine hidden grids? ?”
The shield of the Cosmic Divine Sword was extremely bright, and everyone looked as they were told, and saw that there were four faint bulges on the ground under their feet, dividing the ground at the bottom of the pit into a "well".
Huang Ling frowned and said, "Isn't it the Bagua array? Why are there nine grids?"
Tao Baodao: "Ordinary people only think that the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation is divided into eight gates: Xiu, Sheng, Shang, Du, Jing, Death, Jing, and Kai. They think that the formation is divided into eight areas, but they don't know that besides these eight gates , there is also an empty gate, Chu Di, the one you step on is the empty gate."
Chu Di couldn't see the bulge on the ground under his feet at all. He believed in Tao Bao just as Tao Bao believed in him. He didn't need to step on it with his feet to feel the existence of the hidden grid. He just asked: "What is the empty door used for? Can you escape into the empty door?"
Tao Bao clapped his two fat hands like bear paws and said with a smile: "You are right, the empty gate is the position where the organizer is when setting up the formation. It is connected with the entire formation, but it is not bound by the formation. The formation Once the layout is completed, the person who set up the formation can escape from here, just like the scaffolding erected outside the building in the past. After the building is built, the scaffolding is no longer needed. The secret of going to the crypt is in the empty door under your feet. .”
Chu Di understood the meaning of this sentence. The key to the eight-door golden lock being able to be used as a teleportation array lies in the use of the empty gate. If the empty gate is not used, it will become the formation battle method arranged by Cao Ren during the Three Kingdoms period. So he asked: "Can we leave now?"
Tao Bao shook his head and said: "How can it be that simple? This empty door is controlled by the person who set up the formation. She must set up mechanisms to ensure that it is not activated arbitrarily or accidentally triggered by others."
Huang Ling said: "How can there be any mechanism here? Is the mechanism buried under the ground?"
Tao Bao said: "There are too many types of mechanisms, they can be induction or touch. Chu Di, please step aside and I will stand next to you and try."
He said he wanted to stand in Chu Di's position, but actually he was lying there, like a bear, which made the three girls smile. Li Li said angrily: "What are you doing? You can still use your nose." Can you smell it?"
Tao Bao ignored it, tapping his chubby palms on the ground, then listened attentively, tinkered for a while, stood up and said, "I understand. To activate this formation, you need a set of trigger codes."
Everyone was speechless when they heard this. Since there is a password, doesn't it mean that they can't go at all?
Huang Ling was very unwilling and asked: "What kind of trigger password?"
Tao Baodao: "It's just stamping your feet rhythmically, or tapping the ground with a stick. The password is a very common set of numbers. It may be three or up to six. As long as you use the same rhythm and continuously trigger the ground, it will match this set of numbers." If the numbers match, the formation can be activated."
Li Li said: "Six digits? Is it one, two, three, four, five, six? Then if there are zeros in the password, how do you type it?"
Tao Baodao: "It can't be as simple as one, two, three, four, five, six, but there is definitely no zero in the password."
Shen Xinzi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Do you think it could be the birthday of Second Young Master Long? I remember that her birthday is December 31st of the first year of Xinghe."
For Long Yaojing's fans, her birthday is a big day. Last year, there was almost a whole school celebration. Whether it was out of envy, jealousy or hatred, Shen Xinzi had to attend, so she always remembered this day.
Everyone nodded after hearing this, feeling that what Shen Xinzi said made sense. Since the person who set up this formation was Long Yaojing's mother, it was very possible to use her daughter's birthday as the password.
"One, one, two, three one? Five digits?" Tao Bao stamped his feet on the ground according to this set of numbers. Everyone immediately became nervous and waited with bated breath for him to finish stamping, but nothing unusual happened.
Tao Bao couldn't help but feel embarrassed and said: "The password is not this. It seems that we have to use the exhaustive method."
