I groped for a long time on the bronze tripod where the Jing Gua is located, but I couldn't find any level related to the mechanism.
Am I wrong? The enclosure and the bronze tripod have nothing to do with the Sixty Jiazi and the Sixty-Four Hexagrams of the Book of Changes.
I stood in front of the bronze tripod, frowning and concentrating, unable to figure out the mystery hidden in it.
At this time, everyone gathered around me with puzzled faces. Probably no one except Zhang Jisheng knew what I was doing.
However, at this time, something unexpected happened. Lao Li circled around the bronze tripod, then looked at the bottom of the tripod for a while, looked at me and said quietly: "The hexagram of the Jing hexagram is on the wood.
There is water, so do you think there might be something in this bronze tripod?"
What Lao Li said reminded me that all the buildings at the bottom of Poyang Lake are designed with such care, so if there is a mechanism here, it will definitely not be that simple.
"Old Li, do you mean that there is a wooden mechanism in this big water tank, uh, this huge bronze tripod?" Xiang Yu asked.
"If there is any mechanism, just go down and touch it and you will know." Andrew said.
However, these people only talk about it, and no one has the feeling to take action.
"Brother Zhou, please help me, I'll go down and take a look." Lao Li said to me.
This bronze tripod is about as high as our chests, so it is still a bit difficult to climb in with bare hands.
Lao Li's nosebleed has just stopped, and his face has a dark blue color, which is an unhealthy color. In this case, how could I let him climb into the bronze cauldron?
"Let me do it. I'm pretty good at this kind of thing." I glanced at everyone and then said.
Lao Li probably wanted to say something more, but I didn't give him a chance. As soon as he finished speaking, he held the edge of the bronze cauldron with both hands, lifted himself up with his arms, and then stepped into the bronze cauldron with one foot.
.
Seeing this, Andrew and Zhang Jisheng came forward to help support my butt and push me into the bronze cauldron.
The diameter of each bronze cauldron here is about one meter long, and the inside of the cauldron is a bit deep. In fact, only half of the bronze cauldrons we saw in the yard were exposed, and at least half of them were missing.
Under the bluestone floor tiles.
I couldn't reach the bottom of the bronze tripod with my feet, so I had to ask my teammates to hand me the diving goggles.
"Zhou Cang, is the water here very deep? Do you need it? Come out first and carry the oxygen tank on your back." Xiang Yu said while lying next to the bronze tripod.
I smiled and said no, I had been holding my breath for a long time, so I could just take this opportunity to perform for everyone.
After hearing what I said, everyone laughed and teased me, and the tense atmosphere just now suddenly became much better.
Although I know that everyone has evil intentions, I still hope to complete this journey with my teammates in a relaxed way. This is probably because I have been influenced by my grandma since I was a child.
For as long as I can remember, she has always told me: Love does not make people suffer, only hate does.
After putting on the mask, I took a deep breath, and then submerged my whole body into the water.
It was a bit dark in the water, but the sparse light reflected by the white smoke above the building allowed me to get a rough look at the inside of the bronze tripod.
What shocked me was that the parts of these bronze tripods that were not under the bluestone floor tiles were actually connected. There was a hole on the four sides of each bronze tripod that was about tens of centimeters in diameter, allowing people to drill through the bronze tripod.
Go inside that bronze tripod.
I don't know if the teammates who just fell into these bronze tripods from the tunnel entrance didn't see these holes, or if someone deliberately concealed them, but I really didn't notice them at the time.
These bronze tripods have such a special setting, I don’t know what their purpose is.
Although I didn’t go into the water with a scuba, I still couldn’t contain my curiosity. I couldn’t help but poke my head into the hole that was closer to me on the bronze tripod wall. I was still thinking, so I took a look.
Then sink down to find wood.
However, when I stretched my head to the entrance of the cave, in the bronze cauldron next door, there was a woman's face that looked like it was cut out of rice paper. It floated over and was right next to the entrance of the cave, meeting my eyes.
The woman's face cut out of paper had empty eye sockets, with nothing in it, but there seemed to be breath coming out from the nostrils close to my skin, blowing the skin of my lower mouth and causing itchiness.
I felt like I was going crazy with fright, and I wanted to step back reflexively, but I couldn't help it. My head was stuck right in the hole, with the Tianling cover all the way to the short chin on the side of the hole, and the back of my head where my neck was connected.
And the body is in the bronze tripod where the Jing Gua is located.
In the dark water, face to face with the paper woman, with no way out, I suddenly experienced the moment of death.
While swaying, I roughly saw clearly that this woman had no legs, and a fish tail vaguely appeared under the hem of her white skirt.
Are these bronze tripods placed here just to raise these mermaid monsters?
I felt like my heart was beating so fast that it almost exploded.
This was probably what this person had experienced before he was frightened to death.
Finally, I couldn't hold my breath anymore and opened my mouth to inhale involuntarily.
I felt like I was drowning. Darkness surrounded me, stretched into my lungs, and sucked away all the air around me. I danced and danced, but it was useless, and I had no strength to resist the power of the water.
Just when I thought I was going to die soon, a strong force suddenly pulled me back, and my face was finally ripped off at the entrance of the cave.
The survival instinct made me swim to the surface of the water, and then I lay on the edge of the bronze tripod and gasped for air.
Andrew and Zhang Jisheng pulled me out of the bronze tripod, and I collapsed on the ground. I felt like the golden light was shining in front of my eyes, and the world was spinning.
After breathing enough oxygen, my consciousness gradually returned.
At this time, I realized that Xiangyu was holding my chin, and Andrew looked like he wanted to laugh but was trying his best not to laugh.
It must have been that I had just forcefully removed the face stuck in the hole, which caused my jaw to be dislocated!
Oh my God, the saliva is flowing down Xiangyu's hand right now like a stream without closing the gate.
"Zhou, please forgive me, but you look so ridiculous." Andrew couldn't help laughing.
"Professor, you are so unkind. Zhou Cang entered the bronze cauldron just because of us. You can tell he was choked in the water by looking at his expression. You are still making fun of him. It's true.
." Xiangyu said with a genuine expression on his face.
"Okay, I'm sorry. I apologize to you. Zhou Cang's jaw is dislocated. He needs to find a way to straighten it quickly." Andrew stopped smiling and said.
"Let me do it." Lao Li had already tied gauze on the thumbs and index fingers of both hands at this time, preparing to help my dislocated chin in. "Brother Zhou, open your mouth as much as possible.
Open it wider, and then I will press the broken bone at the innermost part of your tooth. This process may be a bit uncomfortable, so you have to hold back and not retching. Let's strive for success the first time."
When Xiangyu heard this, she put down her hand that was holding my chin. The palm of her hand was full of my saliva, but we didn't bring tissues with us, so she had no choice but to stand on tiptoes and stretch out her hand.
Clean it in a bronze cauldron.
Lao Li used his two thumbs to press the cartilage behind my wisdom teeth, and then fiddled with my mouth with his two index fingers. Anyway, with a "dou" sound, my mouth returned to normal, and I finally could
Control your saliva from dripping down.
However, the moment Lao Li pulled out his finger, I felt like my stomach was churning, and I couldn't help but hold on to the bronze tripod and retched crazily.
The gauze on Lao Li's two fingers was stained red by the blood in my mouth.
Unexpectedly, I was not frightened to death by the paper face in the bronze cauldron, but was instead tortured to death by a dislocated mouth and lost half of my life outside.
