C22

I just hesitated a moment and then went down. To be honest, this flight of stairs was much steeper than the previous one. The main point was the perfunctory construction of the stairs. It was unknown whether it was done intentionally or unintentionally, but there were some areas where the steps were wider and narrower.

When I was traveling in Hangzhou, I noticed a stone step on Huanglong Mountain. It was steep, and the stone steps were as uneven and short as the ones here. Fortunately, there was still sunlight at that time. Regardless of whether he was able to walk steadily or not, at least his line of sight was not obstructed. But here, not to mention the sun, the light from the flashlight could not even be compared to nothingness. The height of the two stone steps appeared and disappeared, and the degree of grievance was indescribable.

I dared to go at first. However, his movements were really fast. Furthermore, he came down earlier than me, so when I took a few steps, the flashlight below shined on the back of my head. I was really afraid that I wouldn't be able to stand firmly on his head.

My whole body bent, almost half a person graze past. He broke out in a cold sweat as soon as he sat down. I'm not a very balanced person, and the stone stairs are very slippery. I can fly out if I'm not careful!

What do you mean by moving very quickly? From my point of view, I look very calm and unhurried as I slowly walked down. By the time I let out a long breath and confirmed that there was another slope ahead of me instead of a stone staircase that I'd overlooked, he was already a few steps ahead.

When I reached the flat ground, I could hear the sound of footsteps coming from the courtyard. I called out to him, "Don't you think this place is strange?"

"What's strange?" What do you mean by standing still?

I organized my words. "This step is directed. Now we have to go back? Next? "Where will we go next?" There was one thing left unsaid. He was too quick, and now I turned to look at the stone steps again, my legs trembling a little.

What did he mean by 'slow down'? "Slow down, but you still have to leave."

I glanced at him wordlessly and followed him.

The worry in my earlier remark was true. The reason for this was because of the 'direction of the stairs'. It was very obvious that the building had been built in such a roundabout way with much effort, but it also had a certain standard feel to it.

So I followed them all the way down... Parallel... Upstairs. When a wall finally appeared, what did it mean to press the circle button beside it?

"Huh?" It was not a horrible scene, and there was no "box" we were looking for.

"Why is he back again!" I turn my head around. What do you mean by rubbing my chin gloomily?

"Don't you see?" "We just walked in a pentagon, and that's where we're staying." At this moment, what we are standing on is the hole that we crossed previously. It was sealed previously, but now that we look at it, the green stone has disappeared and is replaced by the staircase that just brought us here.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

I chuckled. I wasn't sure until we got back here, so I didn't say anything.

"Then what do we do?" "The pentagon," I said. "Don't you feel anything?"

Pentagonal, Pentagonal...

"You mean, the pyramids?" "Heh heh," I said, "I'm just guessing. Don't you find it very interesting?"

The Mayan Pyramid was not like Egypt. The upper and lower floors were mostly pentagonal in shape. And the platform pyramid, which is to say the upper side, exists, not just the top.

That is, if I guessed, we'd just circled the top or bottom of the Pyramid.

"Have you been in there?" "Not to mention Maya, I don't even know how to develop the Egyptian pyramid."

"At first, it was a bomb, but later … "That's about right." I thought about what I had read in a book.

"Then how do we get here?" What is the meaning of this, "Maya Pyramid, are we going to find a way in? "Or what?" "Do you remember the thing on the side wall when we reached the bottom?" "Hmm?" "Are you talking about the gap in the wall?" I nodded.

There was a deep groove in the middle of the last flight of steps leading up to the first. It wasn't very high, but neither I nor I had been paying much attention to the place at the time. We had been walking along the steps.

Now that he thought about it, that place might have been the breakthrough point.

"Then let's go," he said flatly. "We'll go again, it should be there."

I was one step ahead of him as he pushed aside the wall carved with Hades. Because he was prepared, he did not fall to the ground. He casually glanced to the side.

When the door closes itself, what do you mean by immediately coming in from the other side? Looking at me blankly staring at the ground, he puzzledly asks me what's wrong.

I thought back to what I had just seen. I even wanted to lie on my stomach and carefully observe.

The moment I stepped back from the door, the point that could only be moved was hollow.

It was like there was a small circle inside the big circle. The revolving door is a diameter of the big circle, and what I just saw was a small circle.

The reason why we didn't step on the air earlier was because both of us fell directly to the ground, and we didn't step on the air just now.

He really wanted to try pushing it again, but the door could only go from there to here. On the contrary, there was no other way.

"If that's the case …" Let's go take a look at that gap first. We'll talk about that later. " With that, he directly walked down the stairs, his movements extremely swift. It was obvious that he couldn't wait any longer.

I was a little slow in my thoughts, but I still followed him. Although I was still a little flustered, my movements were much steadier now.

We're here again. What was it like to look at it from above?

The groove was not very deep, it was also pentagonal in shape, and the lower end leaned slightly forward, closer to us.

Why was he shining his flashlight inside? The grooves only reached his neck, so it wasn't hard to see.

I watched him concentrate, thinking that if it weren't for the fact that the grooves weren't big enough, he could have stuck his head in.

"This is solid," he said slowly, looking at me in disappointment. "There is nothing here." Solid? "

"Yes," he said as his whole body went limp. "This place is completely sealed. The depth I saw just now should only be a shadow."

I didn't feel much about it, just a little disappointed, and a little frightened at the thought of having to go through all this hassle.

I didn't show it, but I was already very disappointed. The two of us obediently went up, and then returned to the previous Yama, and on this journey, we kept our heads down.

"Actually, you don't have to be too sad," I comforted her. "Since we've built it up it definitely makes sense, and we can't possibly stay inside. As for the key, we'll find it sooner or later. "

What do you mean by quickly raising his head and looking at the King of Hell in front of him, "Then there's only one path. Come, let's go to that pit." He strode toward the door. However, it was different from the last time. Although he had pushed it away, he did not rush in. Instead, he maintained his posture and looked at the ground.

I followed him. At the same moment that he opened the door, the bottomless pit appeared before us.

"Faster!" What was urging?

Before he could say anything, I tilted the flashlight toward the hole and the light shot down.

What do you mean by abruptly releasing his hand, but the door isn't bouncing back, it's stuck there motionless.

What did he mean by 'eh'?

I was still panicking, afraid I wouldn't be able to open the door, so I didn't pay much attention. Looking again, there were steps below.

"This is interesting," he murmured.

I already had some idea. Now that I looked at what it meant to leave the back door behind, I had some more evidence to back up my thoughts.

Maybe it was because I seemed to be deep in thought, so he couldn't help but ask me this question.

"This should be two doors." "Hmm?" What do you mean by wide-eyed, "No way, you saw us behind the road just now …"

Indeed, when we walked over, we saw very clearly what it meant by 'past', and that door immediately bounced back. But, "You see, you pushed the door back, but this half doesn't change at all." I pointed to the other side.

The left side of Hades' face was still there, unaffected. He didn't move forward because of the right side.

"Let's assume that," I said, drawing on the palm of my hand. "The passage at the back is actually wider than this door and the place we are currently staying, which is a trapezium. If it is crossed this way, the width of the two sides is a parallel line. And this door actually has fixed points on both sides. " I gave him the picture of my mind. "Just like the door in the house, it's fixed on one side and can be pushed open. So you push back on one side of the door and the other side doesn't change at all. " This explained the situation just now.

"But you saw it in the beginning. This door can be opened on both sides." "Yes," I said, "it's open on both sides, but it doesn't matter, just stick to it!" Wait, wait, wait, wait. "He said while supporting his head," Didn't you just say that we were on both sides? Why did it become above again? "

"In other words, the bolts are on both sides of the door, but the fixed point of the door is on top." Didn't you say earlier that it was over? " "You made me faint."

I was about to continue, but he raised his hand before I could say anything. "Just say it directly. There's no need to say so much."

"Yes," I said, "you are what you call an unteachable child. "Listen to me, and push the door forward. Both of you, move forward on both sides."

What do you mean by looking at me in a daze? "Are you crazy? How can that be? "

"You won't listen to the explanation yourself," I said, "but you'll have to make it impossible for me to explain in detail. I've seen these doors at my old man's place, but they are carved with the eighteen Prison Lords. "I didn't expect it to be like this. I'll only be sure when you open the door a crack and there's no change at all." "On the whole, you don't fully understand. You only know how to push forward, right?"

I nodded.

According to what we've just seen, no matter how thick this door is, it's impossible to get down without moving it to the back. And there were steps below, which meant that this road was indeed a "road".

My grandpa's picture was in black and white, but when he showed it to me, he was very excited and told me the principles for a long time. This is a trick in Chinese history. Of course I didn't understand, so I wrote down the phenomena and the solutions.

It was unknown whether his photo was of the Qin and Han dynasties, the Spring and Autumn dynasties, or the Warring States. However, he could not escape this period of time. The door was not made of stone, but bronze.

The most awkward part was that the door was stuck there. If he wanted to push again, he would have to turn it back.

I was still trying to figure out what to do when one of my feet stepped in front of me. I quickly pushed the door open and immediately jumped back.

The stone door rumbled and returned to its original position.

What did he mean by very satisfied, "Alright, let's push it together." She stopped at the door, her eyes signaling me to hurry up.

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so I followed his train of thought and assumed the same posture, "One, two …" Three! "

Crack!

There was hope!

What do I and I do to increase our strength?

Crack

In just a few seconds, the stone door had already retreated until the black hole in the ground completely revealed me and what I meant by stopping at the same time.

Initially, I was worried that I would bounce back if I didn't push the door to the end, but as it turned out, I was overthinking. With my eyes fixed on the door, I walked quickly inside.

This hole looked small at first, but in reality, it was very small as well. My backpack was almost stuck on the outside and I couldn't get in. He was barely able to move away from the other side.

"Be careful!"

Before I could regain my footing, something shoved me from behind, and I hit my forehead on the steps.
