Since it is an octagon, and judging from what Master told me before, there should be a door on every wall here, but two of the doors can be opened, and the rest are all sealed. I just walked along this way and passed two corners. In other words, I passed three walls and three doors.
Starting from the first wall I touched, I once thought I had found the door, because there was a sunken door-like area in the center of the wall. However, when I touched it, about a foot away, I still found it. stone wall. The second wall has no depressions and is relatively neat between the two corners. When I touched the third wall, it was almost exactly the same as the first wall.
I walked around the wall in a counterclockwise direction. If the entire shape is a Bagua, then assuming that the two sunken door openings I touched are arranged according to the Bagua positions, then among the eight Hexagram positions, three consecutive such combinations can only be "Zhen - Gen - Kan", and "Kan - Qian - Dui", and the hexagram in the Zhen Gua should be twice as deep as the third wall, and the Gen Gua is " According to what Master said before, they had broken through the "Sheng Gate", so the door should be able to be opened, but the second wall could not be opened, so I judged that the three walls I just walked through Blocking the wall, arranged according to the hexagram positions, must be in the order of "Kan Gan Dui".
I was secretly amazed that when this expert built this place more than a thousand years ago, he didn't just build eight gates on the eight walls. These eight gates were based on the combination of the three horizontal lines of each hexagram of the Bagua. The door is designed in a certain way, whether it is opened or not, whether it is opened on the wall or on the inside, all are based on the hexagrams. In this way, among the eight trigrams, only Dui Gua has three horizontal lines missing from the middle, forming six short horizontal lines. Assuming that the door is opened completely according to this logic, then there is no door on the wall of Dui Gua. of! However, Dui Gua, in the Qimen Bagua, happens to be the "Death Gate".
Coincidentally, the six short horizontal lines on the Dui Gua secretly allude to the meaning of "six paths of sentient beings". The master held the ghost blocking the door that hurt him in the passage of the door of death. Just like these living beings in the six realms, their appearance varied and took on the appearance of all living beings.
The wall I touched first was "Qian", which meant that after turning another corner, I could see the Door of Death.
As the whispers became louder and louder, my steps became lighter and slower. It took me more than half a minute to walk a total of seven or eight steps along the wall. When I reached the corner, I Instead of turning around first, he slowly moved his head to the corner to check. However, he did not see a human figure. Instead, he saw a faint light from the doorway of the "Death Gate" in Dui Gua.
I continued to tiptoe forward. When I turned to the door of the "Death Gate", the whispers were clearly audible, but I couldn't understand them at all. I even only heard the voice of one person speaking. As before, I slowly moved my head to the door to take a look, only to find that the light came from the end of the "Death Door". Reflecting the light, I saw a man holding a kerosene lamp in his hand, and the light was the light of the kerosene lamp. The person holding the lantern was none other than Senior Qin.
The passage of the "Death Door" is narrow and has no obstructions. I can clearly see everything inside the door even if I stand far away. But except for Senior Qin, there was no one. He slightly bowed his body, which seemed a bit humble for an arrogant person like him. And where he stood was next to a broken stone door at the end.
The stone door is closed, but from my perspective, there is a long, triangular gap on the door from the upper left corner to the lower left corner. Through that gap, I can see the dark environment behind the door. Senior Qin was facing the gap, his body still shaking slightly with the sound of speaking.
Seeing that there was no one else, his posture happened to be in a defenseless state. If I make a sneak attack at this moment, I will definitely succeed. But this would be too unfair. I didn't even take care of my master in the middle of the night today. I made a special trip here just to ask for justice. Even if I can't get it back, I have to punish this old guy severely to relieve my anger. When I thought of this, the anger in my heart rekindled, so I didn't care so much, went straight into the passage of the "Death Gate", and walked quickly towards the back of Senior Qin. When I walked to a position not far away from him, I deliberately stepped harder so that he could hear the voice behind me, so that it wouldn't be considered a sneak attack. I was really smart.
Sure enough, when I was still four or five steps away from him, he noticed someone behind him, so he turned to the left and looked at me in surprise as I ran towards him. Without thinking, I hit him in the face with a right fist within reach of my fist.
I'm not a person who likes to fight, and I don't know how to hit old people. If you want to ask who has been beaten by me in this life, to this day, the oldest one is Senior Qin. The face is an area with relatively thin flesh on the human body, and there are bones just under the skin. So compared to other parts of the body, although the face is the face, it is still quite resistant to beatings.
This punch hit him on the left side of the face very accurately. I hit him so hard that he took two steps back and the kerosene lamp in his hand also fell to the ground. But the opponent was Lao Jianghu after all. After I succeeded with this punch, I thought I would immediately hit him with a few more punches to catch him off guard or knock him out directly. But just when I was about to throw the second punch in a row, I was about to swing my fist, but my hand seemed to be tied tightly by something, leaving my fist hanging in the air and unable to break free. Only then did I realize that after receiving the first punch, Mr. Qin The senior reacted immediately. Although his left hand had been covering the left face where I had punched him, his right hand was flat on the outside of his thigh, with his palm facing the direction in front of him, his palm open, and his palm still slightly shaking. It was trembling back and forth, just like epileptic tremors, and there was a slight tinkling sound in my ears. The sound was very thin, but sharp. In this small environment, there was also a kind of sound. An echo like resonance penetrated directly into my mind.
However, I just noticed that on the thumb of his shaking palm, there was a copper ball about the size of a pigeon egg. There were many hollow parts on the ball, which seemed to be bells, and his palm kept shaking. , the bell kept making that jingling sound towards me.
In view of my hands being restrained and his actions at the moment, I have reason to believe that this is a means for him to control ghosts, just like my military skills, except that I use incense and he uses small copper bells. . With my left hand under control, I stretched out my right hand again and pulled my body as hard as I could to catch him in front of me. I gave him another iron head strike, but as soon as I stretched out my right hand, he suddenly made a slight movement. Turning sideways, I turned my trembling palm to my right hand again. For a moment, my right hand couldn't move anymore. It felt exactly the same as my left hand.
I thought to myself, I can still kick, so I kicked my legs over, but found that my feet were empty, and my other foot seemed to be tripped by something. I was suspended face up in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground. On the ground, my back hit a hard stone on the ground. My eyes suddenly turned white, and then there was a feeling of shock to my lungs and my breathing was blocked.
And the most terrible thing is that at this moment, my two hands that were originally bound felt like they were being squeezed at the same time. It was as if something was tying me up, and then it kept tightening. Soon, my hands were filled with pain from the elbows to the middle of my hands. Even if the light was dim, I could see myself. The palm of my hand is slowly swelling and turning purple.
Senior Qin probably saw that he had restrained me, so he stopped ringing the bell, but he still hung the bell on the thumb of his right hand. As the ringing of the bell stopped, the tightening feeling in my hands also disappeared. The blood in my hands suddenly returned to normal. It felt extremely refreshing. There was even a slight numbness in the palms, but my hands were still Trapped and unable to break free.
I was lying on the ground. If I wanted to look at Senior Qin, I could only lie down and lower my head. So he walked over to me, bent over and looked at me, his face full of anger, but he kept suppressing it. I'm not a person who gives up easily. Since I can't move my hands and feet, I still have a mouth. So I spit at him, but maybe it was because I landed too hard just now and my breath was weak. Although the spit was accurate, the force was not good. It didn't leave my mouth very far before it fell directly back onto my face. superior.
I am probably the first person in this era to spit on myself and get hit by it, I think so.
Seeing that I was drooled, this obviously pleased the perverted old man Qin. He sneered and said, "What's wrong, little kid, you sneaked into my house and attacked me so shamelessly? This is all taught by your master Lin Qishan." Is this yours? I said loudly, "Don't talk nonsense. I have already met the master today. He is now seriously ill and hospitalized. All this is because you used him as a shield!" Senior Qin burst out laughing, and then said to me, I, Qin Bukong, really don't take your master's skills seriously. I need him as a shield. Did he tell you all this?
I cursed in my heart, this old shameless guy didn't even admit it. But I also learned his full name, Qin Bukong, what the hell kind of name is this? So I said loudly, "Don't deny it. I'm a man. If you dare, you can kill me today, just like you killed that group of Japanese soldiers and killed all the men in your village!" Otherwise, as long as my master's operation is successful, it won't matter. There are three advantages and two disadvantages. Even if I am not as powerful as you, I will still find a way to kill you!
That was the first time I had been so cruel, and the first time I had thought of killing someone.
But Qin Bukong said, it seems that you know everything, and you are quite well informed. The tone was cold and contemptuous. He gently rang the bell a few times, and it was as if my hands were held by two big men. He lifted me up left and right, with my back against the wall and my feet on the ground. This position made me comfortable. A little bit, at least I have a point of leverage, and I can spit farther.
Qin Bukong walked up to me and said to me, you are right, I killed that group of Japanese soldiers because they killed my compatriots. I was the one who killed the men in the village. It was because of my compatriots...
At this point, he suddenly paused strangely, then lifted his beard, and a very strange voice, as if his mouth was covered with a layer of paper, came from the beard:
"...They want to burn me!"
