Chapter 176: A Close Call



The current situation is indeed very complicated. At the beginning, I felt in my heart that this cave was definitely not as simple as I imagined.

Thinking about how much I have been through, it would be a huge disadvantage if I retreated at this critical juncture.

It is for this reason that, looking at the life-or-death situation that suddenly appeared before me at this moment, I could only shake my head helplessly and say:

"Since we've already encountered this situation, it can only be said that it was destined by heaven. I decided to go ahead and explore the road and see what the situation is."

After I finished speaking, I decided to set off immediately to see what was going on. However, just as I started, Xiaohu stopped me.

Xiaohu held my hand tightly and refused to let go, saying, "You are the only one in our team who can reach the altar. You must not sacrifice yourself."

Da Ding, who had been standing nearby, agreed after hearing this: "That's right. If you go over now, if something really happens, it will be difficult for us to get out."

When Da Ding said these words, his expression looked very embarrassed. Maybe he didn't know what to do next.

If Xiao Ding had bravely taken a step forward at this time, he would have said, "You must stay here well. If someone really wants to go, then I will go."

The atmosphere in the cave suddenly became so awkward at this moment. A cool breeze kept blowing on my body, making me shiver.

Seeing these three people in front of me scrambling to move forward, although I was really moved in my heart, I could only scold them sternly:

"I think you guys just want to go over there and make a fool of yourself. You don't even have an idea of ​​what's ahead, and you still dare to go forward. It's your fault."

As he continued walking forward, he said, "There's no need to discuss this matter. Just wait here obediently. If anything happens, just leave."

At this moment, I was truly moved, but what good could I do with that? How could these three people I brought with me possibly even know anything about life-or-death chess?

With this thought in mind, I walked step by step towards the game of life and death. With every step I took, I felt a trace of sadness in my heart.

After looking back at Xiaohu, Da Ding, and Xiao Ding, he found that they still had frowns on their faces. He smiled faintly and advised:

"You three don't need to worry about me at all. This little trick isn't enough to scare me. Just wait for my triumphant return. Don't worry."

After saying this, I turned around and left, leaving the three people I fell in love with standing there in a daze, tongue-tied and not knowing what to say.

Since I had already walked the first half of the route the first time, I walked the first half of the route quite quickly this time, and arrived at the checkpoint in a short while.

The cave was as bright as day, but this light not only did not make me feel a bit warm, but instead made me feel a little scared from the bottom of my heart.

Time passed by minute by minute. I watched the stone swinging in front of me quietly, and I kept imagining in my mind what method I could use to crack it.

In fact, to be honest, I was really surprised and even unbelievable to see such a mechanism in such a cave.

The rocks on the ground had begun to sway. At this moment, almost everything around me was swaying rocks. This scene made the three people on the shore feel extremely panicked.

I could still vaguely hear Xiaohu's voice: "If it really doesn't work, just give up and come back. It doesn't matter. We can always come back when we're ready."

After hearing these words, I just felt a little funny in my heart. Now that I have come this far, how could I be willing to go back obediently?

The stones in front of me were still swaying one by one, swaying so much that I felt extremely annoyed inside, and I felt very bad all over.

At this moment, all I could imagine in my mind were books, and I was trying hard to find where I had seen this mechanism before.

The cave is now full of dangers, and the most important thing is that I don’t even know where the beast just ran to.

Although I did injure the beast when it was leaving, I could tell from its size that it must have thick skin and flesh.

If I accidentally fall off this chess game of life and death at this moment, then leaving the other three people in this cave to continue staying would be tantamount to seeking death.

Imagining the smiling faces of Xiaohu and Dading and Xiaoding, I became even more determined in my heart that I must bring them back this time no matter what.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but chuckle softly. I turned around and glanced at Xiaohu and Dading and Xiaoding, who were extremely anxious on the shore, and said softly, "

You three can go ahead and rest assured, I will not let you die in vain here, I will definitely bring you back safely."

All I could hear was the sound of rocks swinging, but because of the firm belief I had just held in my heart, these sounds meant nothing to me.

I thought quietly for a long time, so long that even Xiaohu, who was behind me, felt a little impatient. Just when he wanted to call me back, suddenly a bold idea flashed through my mind.

Inspiration burst out in an instant, and at this moment I couldn't help but feel secretly happy in my heart. Isn't the moving direction of these stones in front of me the Bagua?

I was at home leisurely at first, and since I had nothing to do all day, I made a special effort to learn some gossip. I didn't expect that it would come in handy now.

Thinking that the things I learned when I was bored before have now become my life-saving principles, I suddenly felt excited.

It was because when I realized that the direction in which these stones were moving was actually Bagua, the mechanism in front of me was no longer a problem for me.

All the mechanisms are just a pile of scrap metal after you understand their principles. There is no skill involved at all. After thinking about this, I couldn't help but smile triumphantly.

Although I have been staying up late every day and night for a period of time, and my memory is not as good as before, the basic skills are still there.

Now that I have successfully figured out the pattern of stone movement, I walked through this life-and-death situation step by step under the watchful eyes of the three people behind me.
