His eyebrows sank slightly, "We believe that there must be a door switch or a key to open the door. There must be at least one key item similar to a key. Without it, it is impossible to open the door."
"But this message was conveyed by Lin Pei."
"What do you mean? He deliberately misled us?" Gu Yu stopped.
"That's not true. He may also think that he is looking for a 'key'. We thought he was looking for a 'key', so we also looked for a 'key'. However, leaving the dungeon does not necessarily require opening the door."
"You mean there are other ways to escape from the dungeon?" Gu Yu thought for a moment, "That's not right. If there really is another way, why would Lin Pei bother to cooperate with our alien species to lure them away from the gate?"
"He doesn't look like he's acting when he kills alien species." Shen Yi also said.
Xu Huodao: "Lin Pei learned about the way to leave the town through unknown channels, but his method may not be correct."
Several people present were stunned, and then Shen Yi slapped his forehead, "That's right! We all thought that he must know how to get out, and we wanted to get ahead of him, but we never thought that he might have made a mistake! "
"How stupid! We actually completely believed in that villain Lin Pei. If he had that ability, he wouldn't be able to find a way out now." Gu Yu laughed and said, "I think our initial thought was It’s reliable, there are wires connected to the gate, there must be a control gate.”
"That's not necessarily the case." Xu Huo said, "If there was a gate, he would have been found even if it wasn't in a conspicuous place."
"Although the town is closed, there are people coming in and out of the town, so there is no need to make the gate extremely hidden."
"The key is nowhere to be found, probably because the door doesn't have a 'key' at all, like the rooms here."
"You mean, the door should actually be easy to open?" Ke Liang asked doubtfully, "But we tried everything just now and couldn't open the door."
"Dang! Dang!"
"It's nine o'clock! It's nine o'clock! It's a good time to study. Children who learn something new every day are good children."
"Today's question is, among the twelve hours, which hour does Master Nisei love the most?"
An electronic sound sounded next door. After hearing it, Xu Huo immediately walked out of Master Nisai's residence and entered the small building next to it.
Gu Yu and others followed him without knowing why.
"What is he doing?" Shen Xin asked subconsciously, but Gu Yu stopped him with a gesture.
Several people came to the clock that had just chimed in. Xu Huo stepped forward and knocked on the glass door of the clock. "I didn't hear the question clearly. Say it again."
"Today's question is, among the twelve hours, which hour does Master Nisei love the most?"
Xu Huo stared at the hands on the dial, put one hand in his trouser pocket, jeweled arm, magnifying glass, candy, strawberry mirror...
"Twelve o'clock, Master Nisei loves twelve o'clock at night the most."
"Dudu! The answer is correct!"
"The puzzle solver gave the correct answer, and Master Nisei decided to reward you with a small strawberry hairpin."
Xu Huo took the hairpin that the clock had spit out, turned around and said to Guyu and the others: "The big clock on the roof of the mayor's office building will light up at twelve o'clock every night. At this time, the light will be reflected on the door. I I noticed it, but not at other times.”
"Does this matter?" Shen Yi didn't understand.
"If the town gate does not need a key, how do you open and close it?" Xu Huo asked.
"Ground cage!" Shen Xin had an idea. "It opens and closes automatically through the gate. It doesn't need anyone to control it. It will automatically close and open when the time comes. The same principle applies to the gates of small towns!"
"That's right," Xu Huo nodded, "The door is not controlled by humans. There will definitely be a time for it to open and close automatically. Twelve o'clock in the middle of the night is a special time. The door may open at this time."
"So we just need to wait in front of the gate until twelve o'clock in the evening?" Gu Yu couldn't believe it was so easy.
"Try it every once in a while, and the results will be available within 24 hours. If the inference is wrong, we will think of other methods." Xu Huo said.
His calmness and determination were like a reassurance, giving Gu Yu and Ke Liang great confidence.
"Then which door should we choose?" Wang Chaoqing asked with a smile: "How about drawing lots?"
"Normally, the two gates should be the same." Xu Huo said: "But we have tried the east gate several times, so we can exclude some time and go to the east gate first."
"Okay, let's go to the east gate!"
"Don't worry about Lin Pei?" Shen Xin hesitated and said.
"The town is so big. Where can we find him? Instead of wasting energy to find someone, we might as well find a way to get out early." Shen Yi said, "We just need to pay attention."
The minivan was back on the road, but this time it was different from when it came here. Everyone's face was much more relaxed, and Gu Yu even started humming a song.
"Aren't you a movie star? You can also sing." Shen Yi asked with a smile.
"Star of film and television singing, are you kidding me." Gu Yu cleared her throat and began to sing a ditty she wrote herself, while Shen Yi and Ke Liang followed in time.
Xu Huo wiped his sword happily and seemed to be infected by this happiness.
I had to prepare food for the day, so I found some food on the way and brought some water. It was almost twelve o'clock when we arrived at the east gate.
"After I go out, I will eat hot pot for three days in a row." Shen Yi chewed the chocolate and said, "My mouth is watering now when I think about the taste."
"Me too, me too." Shen Xin nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "I have never been hungry for so long in my life. I can eat a cow!"
"Then you two come with me to the capital city, and I'll treat you to all the local delicacies." Gu Yu said with great pride.
The brother and sister laughed, "Aren't big stars busy?"
"No matter how busy a friend is, he still has to accompany you." Gu Yu glanced at Xu Huo, "If you come, I will definitely accompany you personally. Everything will be arranged for your accommodation, so you don't have to worry about money."
She was not interested in drinking. Shen Xin poked her brother's arm and snickered.
Shen Yi and Ke Liang were envious of Xu Huo's luck. The former asked, "Brother Xu, we all plan to go to the capital city to try our luck after we go out. Aren't you going?"
"I don't have any plans for the moment." Xu Huo finished the biscuits slowly. Seeing that Gu Yu had melted the chocolate and refused to eat it, he stretched out his hand and said, "If you can't eat it, give it to me."
Gu Yu slapped his palm hard with her fingertips, moved her feet, turned her back to him, and stuffed the chocolate into her mouth.
"You don't know how lucky you are when you are in the midst of blessings." Wang Chaoqing smacked his lips beside him, and then came to Gu Yu's side, "Miss Gu, do you think I have a future?"
Gu Yu turned around and looked at him, feeling that he was a malleable seedling. His characteristic shadow was currently very weak, but he had great potential.
When she was about to speak, Xu Huo suddenly stretched out his hand to hold Wang Chaoqing's shoulders and said with a smile, "Follow me."
Wang Chaoqing's eyebrows drooped, "Brother, there is no money in this small place. Brother, I want to make big money."
"Don't worry, I'll introduce you to a place to make big money later." Xu Huo patted him.
Wang Chaoqing dared not say anything in anger, so he looked at Gu Yu, only to find that she had already lost her interest. The hope of changing her appearance was suddenly cut off, and he moved back to his original position without moving.
Soon it got dark, and a few people gathered some dry branches and came back to light a fire, then turned off the flashlights.
I waited until after eleven o'clock at night.
"It's almost twelve o'clock." Ke Liang swallowed nervously.
Xu Huo's watch was synchronized with the clock. When the second jumped to twelve, he nodded to the left and right, and stepped forward to push the door open with Ke Liang and Gu Yu.
They used a lot of force, but they didn't expect that the door at this time was completely different from before. It sunk in with a light press, and then slowly lifted upwards:
"The door is open!"
