As soon as Zhao Ping said this, except for the newcomers and the Arab team, the faces of most people suddenly changed. Cheng Ying, Peng Hu, Tang Meng, Kong Ling, and even Chen Shuihong, almost every senior member of the Shenzhou team trembled, causing The reason why they reacted this way is precisely because they reacted too quickly and understood too well!
As soon as Zhao Ping finished speaking, as if he understood some hidden logic, Cheng Ying immediately looked at the snake door, and while looking at it, she said: "A snake is a reptile without arms and legs, and its body is as slender as a rope. Normally, it always moves in a meandering way. If you have to match a certain environment with a snake, then a long, narrow and well-connected maze is undoubtedly a reasonable metaphor. Since the maze is equivalent to the snake in the Chinese zodiac, then how can this be true? Not to say……"
Sure enough, after listening to Zhao Ping's guess, and having just listened to Cheng Ying's subsequent analysis, at this moment, no matter who it is, everyone understands. Even if the above is just a guess, Cheng Ying's metaphor is reasonable after all. If the truth is really like this. If so, then these twelve doors with zodiac heads engraved on them are equivalent to twelve different types of fatal traps!
"Holy crap! Traps? Twelve fucking traps that match the zodiac signs? Zhao Ping, you and Cheng Ying, please don't talk nonsense. This is just a tomb for dead people. Where can there be so many traps? Hey, Brother, what's wrong with you? Speak and tell everyone that they are talking nonsense! If all the doors are connected to traps, how can we move on? How can we reach Wu Zetian's main tomb room?" Because I really didn't expect that the truth would be like this. Horrible, in fear, Peng Hu bravely refuted, and asked He Fei to reveal the truth. However, unfortunately...
It is true that Peng Hu and even everyone present did not want to believe this terrible answer. In order to change this argument, Peng Hu also urged He Fei to speak. Unfortunately, He Fei did not speak or answer. Instead, Lao Hu and Chen beside him The corner of Xiaoyao's mouth gradually twitched. Yes, because one of them is a captain who understands Feng Shui and the other is a Maoshan Taoist priest who is proficient in yin and yang, their understanding of certain Taoist mechanisms is obviously higher. In fact, they have witnessed Chen Xiaoyao and When Xue Liyang came out of the snake door, Lao Hu, who had been observing and thinking, vaguely saw the clues in it, and then Chen Xiaoyao, who saw the twelve zodiac doors, also discovered the key.
Among the twelve zodiac signs, the snake is equivalent to a complex criss-crossing alleyway, and what is connected behind the door is indeed the underground maze that everyone passed through before. If this is true, then the other 11 doors with zodiac heads printed on them...
Seeing that He Fei's face was ugly and silent for a long time, he sighed. Chen Xiaoyao took He Fei's place and said to everyone: "No need to guess, there are traps behind these doors. No matter which door we choose, we can't actually reach Wu Zetian." The main mausoleum chamber, this is a dead end, an almost unsolvable dead end of conspiracy."
When Chen Xiaoyao personally said that all twelve copper doors connected to the trap area, everyone's expressions changed.
First of all, you must understand that whether it is the executor or Lao Hu and his gang of gold captains, their purpose of coming here is to find key items. Now they have already locked their destination in Wu Zetian's main mausoleum room. After going through hardships to get here, Facing 12 strange doors with zodiac heads engraved on them, everyone subconsciously believed that at least one of them was real and could lead directly to the main tomb room. The purpose of Lao Hu's observation and thinking in front of the door was to find the real passage. Although the choice is one in 12, there is still a chance. However, since Zhao Ping told the truth on behalf of He Fei, and even Chen Xiaoyao personally said that the backs of all doors are connected to trap areas, including Lao Hu and others. Everyone, including Colonel Mo Jin, was dumbfounded. While dumbfounded, their expressions gradually turned ugly. It was certain and inevitable. After all, there was no passage, which meant that they could not reach the main tomb chamber. If they could not reach the tomb chamber, they would not be able to find what they wanted. Things, and once the key items cannot be obtained, not only will there be no hope of cracking the curse on Lao Hu and the others, but the executor will also be wiped out because he cannot obtain the soul-fixing beads.
When they thought of the extremely painful ending of obliteration, everyone could not help but tremble with fear, especially Chen Shuihong. As the person who was most afraid of death, the fat man's fat began to shake. The rhythmic shaking made others secretly speechless. They did not expect this. Fat people can actually dance with their fat! But then again, after all, humans are creatures that are afraid of death. Whenever the pressure of death reaches a critical point, in addition to stimulating the potential of the body, the brain will occasionally function exceptionally well. Sure enough, after shaking the fat for a long time, I haven’t seen He Fei and others for a long time.
As if he suddenly thought of something, Chen Shuihong stepped out from the crowd and said loudly: "Wait! I have an idea!"
Seeing Chen Shuihong's rare expression of opinion, everyone couldn't help but be a little curious and looked at Chen Shuihong one after another. Zhao Ping said expressionlessly: "What do you think? Tell me."
Seeing the bespectacled man indicating to speak bluntly, Chen Shuihong continued: "Uh, um... Regarding Wu Zetian, we have discussed it before. Although this woman is a thief who brings disaster to the country and the people, and belongs to the emperor who usurped the throne, she is still an emperor after all, so strictly speaking here It can also be regarded as a standard emperor's tomb, and ancient emperors often used dragons to flaunt themselves, saying that they were the true dragon emperor. Since dragons often represented emperors in ancient times, then..."
Having said this, Chen Shuihong raised his hand and pointed to the Dragon Gate next to the Snake Gate: "Is it possible that the Dragon Gate is the real passage connecting the tomb of Wu Zetian?"
dragon?
Not to mention, under Chen Shuihong’s reminder, everyone who had been silent just now was suddenly startled, and then they started discussing with each other. Perhaps they agreed with the fat man’s remarks. Peng Hu touched his chin and muttered: "Well, Old Chen, you are so stupid There seems to be some truth in what he said. Let’s not talk about whether the Dragon Gate is a real passage, but the emperors in ancient times did like to use dragons to refer to themselves, and they also had dragons embroidered on their robes.”
"Could this dragon gate be the real passage?"
While speaking, Peng Hu looked at the people around him and saw that Cheng Ying was deep in thought. Kong Ling and Tang Meng were also thinking deeply. They neither agreed nor denied this statement. Looking at He Fei opposite, the young man simply said: There was no response, as if he didn't hear Chen Shuihong's guess, he remained silent from beginning to end, and his eyes were always scanning back and forth on the many doors. He turned to look at Chen Xiaoyao again, but saw that Chen Xiaoyao also neither agreed nor denied it. hesitant expression.
"It seems that we are not sure. In that case, let's open the door and take a look first." Seeing this scene, Peng Hu became a little anxious, casually said something, and then strode towards the opposite dragon gate.
But the strange thing is...
Under the gaze of Cheng Ying and everyone present, he came to the door. At the last moment when Peng Hu raised his hand and was about to push the door open, behind him, He Fei, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly Jian's expression changed, and he immediately shouted to Peng Hu: "Wait! Don't open the door!"
There was no reason, no reason. Seeing He Fei stop Peng Hu from opening the door, everyone who was about to take a look at the situation behind the door was surprised, so they all looked at He Fei. In surprise, Peng Hu was about to ask the reason, but He Fei spoke first, with his fingers and fingers. The Snake Gate adjacent to the Dragon Gate reminded everyone: "Look, the Snake Gate is closed."
Yes, just as He Fei said above, when everyone looked along He Fei's fingers, they saw that the snake door that had been open before had been quietly closed at some point. It was not touched by anyone and there was no cool breeze blowing on the scene. The situation closed on its own little by little, and the reason why He Fei had been silent just now and didn't even care about Chen Shuihong's Longmen Conjecture was because He Fei discovered this. In fact, Zhao Ping had already spoken out the trap conjecture on He Fei's behalf. At that time, He Fei discovered this detail and accidentally saw that the originally open snake door was closing on its own at an extremely slow speed. Because the closing speed was too slow and not obvious, no one else except He Fei noticed it. It was discovered that He Fei did not remind everyone until the thick copper door was completely closed. It was only then that everyone suddenly realized that the snake door was closed.
"Huh? Hey, this door is really closed? What's going on? Is there a spring in this door? Can it close automatically after being pushed open?" It was confirmed that the door had closed by itself at some point. This time, Peng Hu did not wait. When he opened his mouth, Fatty Wang was the first to marvel, and then he and Lao Hu looked intently at Sherry Yang, while the executors collectively looked at Chen Xiaoyao. Yes, after all, it was Sherry Yang and Chen Xiaoyao who came out of the Snake Gate before. , if you want to know whether there is a spring in the door or some kind of mechanism that can close by itself, no one at the scene knows better than the two of them, but...
What made everyone quite puzzling was that in the face of the questioning look of his companions, Xue Liyang shook his head decisively and said no. Chen Xiaoyao also shrugged his shoulders and said bluntly: "No, I checked the bronze door before opening the door, but there was nothing. There are no springs in it, nothing there.”
At the same time, let’s not talk about why such a heavy copper door closed on its own without a spring, but everyone knew He Fei after all. At least the Shenzhou team knew He Fei’s capabilities. As a result,
Unexpectedly, after discovering that the Tongmen was strange and could even close on its own inexplicably, everyone began to care about other things and thought about He Fei's blocking behavior just now. Cheng Ying asked him on behalf of everyone: "Although the Tongmen can indeed inadvertently close, It closes automatically, so why did you stop Peng Hu from opening the door just now? Is there something wrong with the dragon gate?"
"Yes, even if all these copper doors can be closed automatically, does this prevent us from opening the door to check, right? As long as we don't go in, there should be no danger?" Cheng Ying's question immediately gained Peng Hu's approval. And the reason is just as the bald man said, even if the twelve zodiac copper doors are all abnormal, as long as everyone doesn't go in, there will be no danger. The purpose of him raising his hand to push the door just now was to have a look at the door. Considering the situation inside, I thought this was just an ordinary and reasonable move, but unexpectedly, He Fei stopped me, or...
Unlike everyone who had the idea of checking, He Fei had no intention of checking what was going on behind these bronze doors! ?
Why? Why aren't you even allowed to check? Why is He Fei unwilling to open other zodiac bronze doors?
reason?
I don’t know, I don’t know, let alone Peng Hu and others, even the equally smart Zhao Ping rarely showed a surprised expression, and then looked at He Fei with suspicion.
"Mr. He, with all due respect, through the snake door closure just now, we have now confirmed that these copper doors with zodiac patterns are engraved with hidden mechanisms. Although we don't know the specific principle, it is basically no problem to open it and take a look." Because it is really difficult to do it. Not understanding He Fei's specific intention of prohibiting opening the door, Peng Hu finished his words. Lao Hu, who had the same view, also expressed his personal confusion, which was considered to support Cheng Ying and others' original point of view. As for He Fei...
Seeing that everyone was raising questions, maybe he was trying to prove something and did not care about the plot characters present. He kept his brows furrowed and said seriously to everyone: "First of all, I want to declare that the Longmen speculation that Brother Chen just mentioned is indeed possible. It is the correct passage, but the probability of being correct is very low. After all, the designer of this tomb is the famous Yuan Tiangang. As for how powerful Yuan Tiangang is, I don’t think I need to say it. We already have a deep understanding of it, and it is correct. Because I have seen the power of Yuan Tiangang, when I saw these twelve zodiac bronze doors, I already concluded that these bronze doors are all traps. No matter which one we choose, it is impossible to actually lead to the main tomb room. Blindly The result of trying will only be to step into a trap, but..."
After saying this for a moment, and seeing everyone nodding, He Fei emphasized his tone and changed the topic: "But! There are traps behind these copper doors and there is no correct passage to connect to the main tomb room, but we still Don't forget an important key, that is, the curse will never release a mission that will lead to death. Since the curse explicitly asks us to find the soul-fixing beads, and the only place where we can hope to obtain the soul-fixing beads is Wu Zetian's main mausoleum room. , then there must be a connecting channel here. The reason why we can’t find it is because we have collectively fallen into a thinking trap and have been restricted by inertial thinking!”
Habitual thinking! ?
As soon as He Fei finished speaking, it was as if he understood something instantly. Everyone's expressions suddenly changed. Tang Meng was indeed an outstanding veteran with outstanding wisdom. His understanding speed was extremely fast. As soon as He Fei pointed out the key point, Tang Meng pointed his finger. Bronze Gate, immediately said in a probing tone: "Are you saying that these twelve bronze gates are all Gu Bu's maze? Are they all false arrangements to disrupt viewing and hearing?"
I thought Tang Meng's guess was shocking enough, but what surprised everyone even more was...
After hearing Tang Meng's guess, He Fei did not nod in agreement, but shook his head slightly and said, "Sister Tang Meng, you are only partly right."
At this point, He Fei pointed at the bronze door and continued: "These bronze doors are indeed Gu Bu's maze. They are false arrangements that interfere with the intruder's thinking judgment. However, interfering with thinking is only one aspect. In fact, these bronze doors interfere with thinking. The false setting is the fatal mechanism that kills us, and it is also the key that can open the real passage!"
What! ?
After saying that, ignoring the shocked expressions of people who were becoming more and more surprised, He Fei stared at the bronze door and began to explain, announcing his personal analysis for the first time:
"After the snake door closed on its own just now, I concluded that there is a hidden mechanism in these copper doors, and there is some kind of fatal mechanism that can kill us all in an instant! The seemingly safe snake door is actually a bait, the purpose is to let us all die in an instant! we produce
Since the snake door is safe, other doors are also safe. This is the unique inertial thinking of human beings, but what is the reality? In fact, except for the snake door, the other 11 copper doors are all death buttons that activate the mechanism. No matter which door we open, the mechanism will actually be triggered. By that time, all of us will be doomed! They will all die here collectively! "
Since all the people present were smart people with good IQs, as He Fei announced his personal guess, everyone quickly understood what He Fei meant. It was true, but after figuring out what He Fei meant, next, anyone A contradiction emerged that no one could understand, and that was...
Since He Fei believes that these copper doors conceal fatal mechanisms, and if they are pushed open at will, everyone will be killed, then why does he say that the copper doors are still the key to the real passage?
With a strong sense of puzzlement, after looking at each other for a few times with Cheng Ying and others, Chen Xiaoyao frowned, so he immediately raised a question: "Wait a minute, Lao He, I admit that your above analysis is very reasonable, but, even if these The copper doors are all buttons that trigger fatal mechanisms. Once they are opened, we will be doomed, but you just said that these copper doors are also the key to unlocking the real passage. Isn’t this contradictory? "
Chen Xiaoyao's leading question was unanimously approved by the others. When he nodded, his eyes turned to He Fei again. He thought He Fei would continue to explain, but Chen Xiaoyao, Cheng Ying, Peng Hu, Tang Meng and everyone present were surprised. What’s not reached is…
Faced with many questioning looks, He Fei did not explain this time. Instead, he glanced intently under the gaze of everyone, and continued to observe the door opposite. While watching, He Fei's expression changed rapidly, sometimes his mouth twitched and hesitant, and sometimes he clenched his teeth. His expression was complicated until one minute passed quietly. As if he had finally made some kind of decision, He Fei suddenly spoke and ordered everyone: "Open the door! Open all the copper doors!"
What! ! !
As if a high-voltage electric current swept through his body, as soon as He Fei finished speaking, whether it was a member of the Chinese team, a member of the Arabian team, or Lao Hu and other captains, the scene immediately exploded, and almost everyone was frightened by He Fei. The hair on the hair stood on end. In fear, Chen Shuihong shook his fat body and shouted first: "What? Open the door? Brother He, what do you mean? Just now you said that opening the door will trigger the fatal mechanism, but now you suddenly changed your mind , if these bronze doors really have a mechanism, once they are opened, we will be dead!"
"Hey, hey, Lao He, are you crazy?"
"No, you can't open the door. If you open the door, you will die!"
Sure enough, because they had already accepted He Fei's statement that the copper door hid a fatal mechanism in advance, when He Fei ordered the door to be opened, everyone who believed that they would die if they opened the door panicked instantly. For a while, everyone shook their heads, refusing, but even more. There were many people like Chen Shuihong who asked in surprise. He had clearly determined in advance that opening the bronze door was equivalent to opening the death mechanism. Unexpectedly, He Fei suddenly changed his mind and planned to open the door. This was simply suicide, a serious suicide!
The above is the real reaction of everyone at present, and no one can understand He Fei's specific intention. Although this is the fact, not everyone is like this. Just like now, when most people are questioning in panic, Zhao Ping There was no nervousness or questioning. At the same time, he was the only one besides He Fei who remained calm at the scene. At this moment, maintaining an expressionless face, Zhao Ping ignored the others. He just stared at He Fei and quickly analyzed the logic in his mind, and finally gradually Showing an expression of understanding, at the same time, seeing that everyone was really startled, He Fei hurriedly shouted to everyone: "Everyone, calm down first. I understand what you mean, but please think carefully about what I said before. If so, I said it was dangerous to open the door before, but I only said that opening one side would be dangerous! What I just said was to open all doors!"
"Huh?"
Somehow, as soon as He Fei said this, everyone who was still frightened and panicked suddenly froze, and the initial noise disappeared instantly. As everyone regained their calm, soon, Peng Hu was in shock. He raised his head and asked: "Open them all? Could it be..."
Peng Hu's words usually stopped abruptly, and the reason for his sudden stop was precisely He Fei's reminder. Finally, after thinking silently for a moment, Cheng Ying took Peng Hu's hand after looking at the expressionless Zhao Ping. When Hu started talking, he asked He Fei tentatively: "Is it possible that the properties of one side open and all open are different?
"
"I'm not 100% sure whether the results are the same, but I'm 90% certain that they are different!"
Facing Cheng Ying's probing inquiry, He Fei directly stated the probability, and the probability was an extremely rare 90%! In the impression of Cheng Ying and other teammates, He Fei is smart, but he always retains a common problem that all wise men have, that is, he is not completely certain about everything. If others ask, He Fei will answer with probabilities. , when He Fei usually solves the problem, he usually gives about half the probability, and the highest one is only 70%. However, at this moment, facing the twelve zodiac bronze doors hiding fatal mechanisms, He Fei actually gives With a 90% chance of responding, could it be said...
He Fei cracked the mechanism? The correct passage has been found! ?
Let’s not talk about the surprise in the hearts of Cheng Ying and others, but He Fei obviously wanted to implement the plan as soon as possible. Therefore, without waiting for others to ask questions, He Fei said to everyone without stopping: "I will tell everyone the specific logic later. Now we just There is only one thing that needs to be done, and that is to open all the copper doors, but the way to open the doors is a little special, so everyone must do it according to my requirements."
After saying that, maintaining great confidence, He Fei told everyone the plan. The specific process was very simple. There was only one key point, which was to open the doors at the same time. The twelve zodiac doors must be opened at the same second. Only in this way can everyone open the door at the same time. Avoid triggering the fatal mechanism while opening the hidden passage that truly leads to the main mausoleum chamber!
In addition, due to the large number of people present, there is no problem with the plan of opening all the doors at the same time, so...
At He Fei's request, with some uneasiness, everyone started to take action and dispersed towards the opposite copper gate.
