"…Compounding simple things and imagining complex things is terrifying. This is a common problem for smart people. People who design institutions use this mentality of smart people to arrange a maze, which is often puzzled."

At this time, Mr. Hou sighed: "What is complicated is not the mechanism, but the human heart."

"The truth is this." At the same time, Mr. Qian smiled bitterly and said, "It's like the master's secret. To put it bluntly, it's worthless, but when you don't know it, it's worth a thousand gold."

“That’s it…”

Yu Feibai nodded repeatedly: "For experts like you, Mr. Hou, it must be very simple to crack the mechanism, but for us, we are still confused. Please give me some advice."

The others nodded one after another, and Fang Mingsheng was even more looking forward to it.

"I just know the tricks to crack, but I still need your help to check the specific methods." Hou Lao smiled, without any hesitation, and explained directly: "The key is still the chess game. If you check, who wins and loses this chess game, or where to make the first step, and how to resolve the second step..."

"ah!"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked immediately, and suddenly they felt a bright feeling of clearing the clouds and fog to see the sun.

"Old Qian, what kind of chess game is this?"

Yu Feibai reacted quickly and immediately took out his big screen mobile phone, searched online directly, and then quickly obtained detailed and comprehensive information.

"This is an endgame. Generally speaking, whoever wins first, black and white, the first step is..." Yu Feibai was afraid that Mr. Hou was not capable of his eyesight, so he read out the information directly.

"Well, that's all."

Old Hou nodded slightly, then took two thin needles, and then, under the eager gaze of everyone, he first gently stabbed the two thin needles into the holes in the corresponding position. However, he did not rush into the bottom, but hung up slightly.

At this moment, Mr. Hou held his breath and concentrated. The thin needle with his left hand first penetrated into the bottom of the eyelet. When the mechanism was activated, the thin needle with his right hand was inserted in time and steadily.

"Click!"

For a moment, the two thin needles were like Dinghai Shen Needles, and then they suddenly cracked in the middle of the micro chessboard and then slowly slid to the left and right sides.

At the right time, everyone could see clearly that a keyhole the size of a soybean appeared.

“Successfully.”

Seeing this, Yu Feibai cheered and the others were also overjoyed. At the same time, he sighed that the expert's move was indeed extraordinary. Mr. Zeng had studied the mechanism lock for two years but had no clue. It was not difficult for Mr. Hou to do anything, and it was solved directly.

"Don't be too happy too early."

At this time, Old Hou also had a smile on his face, but he still said calmly: "The last level is difficult, and it is not easy to say it. This should require a special key to open it. If there is no key, it is also a troublesome."

"Well……"

A basin of cold water poured down, which made everyone's happiness dissipate most of them.

There is no doubt that this is an ancient machine box. It is already a rare thing to be passed down. The key must be lost. How to unlock the lock will naturally become a problem.

"fine."

At this moment, Yu Feibai suddenly laughed and said, "If it is a modern lock, it's fine, but Wang Guan has a good idea for ancient locks, so let him try it."

"Wang Guan?"

The others were stunned and looked at the king one after another.

"Don't talk nonsense."

Wang Guan was a little embarrassed and was reluctant to admit that he was a lock-opening master. The main reason is that those who can unlock locks these days are the experienced lock-up masters, but also the successor of Miaoshou Konggong.

"What am I talking nonsense?" Yu Feibai frowned and said, "I have seen it several times. It's not difficult for you to unlock this kind of lock, just one iron wire."

"That was luck, it happened..." Wang Guan defended.

"alright."

At the right time, Mr. Qian waved his hand and smiled and said, "Wang Guan, try it. If it doesn't work, please ask someone else for help."

"Yes, this matter is definitely not difficult for you." Yu Feibai said excitedly: "I really want to know what is hidden in this machine box now."

Not only Yu Feibai, but Wang Guan was also very curious. In addition, Mr. Qian also said that, he no longer refused, picked up the machine box and lowered his head to study it.

Of course, taking the opportunity to cheat is also a necessary matter. After Wang Guan quietly used his special abilities, the slightest breath immediately wrapped the box, and the whole box naturally became very transparent, so the secret was fully exposed.

With the help of Yitong, Wang Guan also understood the mechanism structure in the box, which was indeed very wonderful. One by one, the wire threads that looked like thin hair were spread all around the box, and then under the guidance of that exquisite hub, they completed a very incredible deformation.

The more he observed, the more he made Wang Guan sigh at the ingenuity of the ancients and the deep regret. Such ingenious techniques were only in the hands of a small number of people from beginning to end, and were not popularized at all, so they were destined to disappear into the long river of history.

Fortunately, Wang Guan did not forget the serious matters. After calming down his mood, he focused his attention on the inside of the box.

"Um?"

At this moment, Wang Guan was stunned and a little lost.

"how's it going?"

At the same time, Yu Feibai came over and urged, "Don't just look at it, you can't see the flowers anymore. No matter how good your eyesight is, can you still see the internal structure through the small keyhole?"

"oh!"

After Yu Feibai's reminder, Wang Guan woke up, and a thoughtful look flashed through his eyes, and then Cheng Shan Ruliu picked up a long needle and gently probed it into the keyhole.

Because he was a little absent-minded, Wang Guan acted according to his instinct and forgot to pretend. The long needle just flicked it in the keyhole a few times. Everyone immediately heard a click and the lid naturally bounced open.

By the way, before the others were mentally prepared, they suddenly saw the box open, and everyone was a little surprised. After a while, Yu Feibai reacted first, and was overjoyed and patted Wang Guan on the shoulder, saying, "Haha, I know you can..."

While speaking, Yu Feibai naturally "snatched" the machine box, then completely opened the lid, looked down, and his face suddenly became surprised: "It turns out that there is something hidden."

"What's hidden?"

Mr. Qian and Mr. Hou were very steady and naturally would not be in a hurry, but Fang Mingsheng couldn't sit still and hurriedly approached and watched.

After a closer look, the space in the box is not very spacious, it is just the same size as the matchbox. However, considering the heavy mechanism of the box, it is understandable that the internal space is limited. Of course, the most important thing is that in the space as big as the matchbox, a neatly folded item is indeed placed.

"It seems like a piece of cloth?" Yu Feibai hesitated a little, reached out and touched it, and then pulled it out carefully.

At this time, everyone also saw clearly and found that the thing was indeed a piece of cloth. As Yu Feibai pulled, the cloth also unfolded, but some lines outlined with strokes were revealed.

"There is something strange on the cloth. It seems that something was drawn. Could it be a treasure map?"

Yu Feibai reacted slowly. After seeing this, he immediately put the box aside, then carefully organized the cloth and then spread it on the table so that everyone can enjoy it.

Everyone was surprised when they looked at it, because the cloth was not a picture of landscape characters, flowers and birds, nor was it the treasure map that Yu Feibai mentioned, but a rule of rule, which was a bit similar to the design sketch of a modern building.

"What is this?"

Yu Feibai looked at it carefully and was a little confused: "Are the design drawings of the ancient palace?"

"palace……"

At this moment, Old Hou said in amazement: "Layout diagram of the underground palace organ."

"What?"

Everyone was very surprised and quickly looked at Mr. Hou. He took out a magnifying glass and carefully studied the graphics on the cloth. Finally, he concluded: "Yes, this is the design drawing of the underground palace. It not only indicates the main tomb and the location of the tomb accompanying the tomb, but also records the location of the traps in the underground palace mechanism..."

"No."

Yu Feibai was very surprised: "What kind of underground palace is this? There are actually design drawings?"

"I don't know where the underground palace is, but judging from the specifications, it is at least at the level of the king and the prince." Mr. Hou explained softly while studying: "As for design drawings, it is usually rare to see them. Because in order to prevent the situation in the underground palace from leaking, some people immediately killed the craftsmen and buried them when the underground palace was built."

"Hmph, I've heard of this."

Yu Feibai nodded repeatedly: "Especially the imperial tombs, many imperial tombs have to be built over the past few hundred years, so craftsmen have killed one after another. But what makes me wonder is how the officials responsible for supervising the imperial tombs are safe?"

"Because they are only responsible for supervision, the hidden weapons in the underground palace were not installed by them."

Mr. Hou smiled slightly, and said with emotion: "Do you know why ancient mechanisms were gradually lost? It is because of the massive killing of emperors, generals and ministers. People who are proficient in this kind of craft will either die or dare not reveal their identities, and they will not dare to pass on their skills to their descendants, so as not to cause any harm to kill themselves."

In order to prevent their tombs from being invaded by tomb robbers, kings, princes and generals of all generations naturally set up various defense mechanisms in the tombs to try to prevent the tomb robbers from entering. Then they were worried that the mechanism master would leak secrets, so they would definitely kill them. It would be strange if they could continue to kill one generation after another, and it would be strange if the mechanism technique could be passed down.

"Brutal, ignorant, stupid..."

Understanding this truth, Yu Feibai couldn't help but curse and sighed. Of course, the object of cursing must be the ancient emperors and generals. It was because of them that a unique skill was lost, so he should definitely scold him.

"Stop scolding."

At the right time, Mr. Qian thoughtfully said: "In other words, the institution master should also realize that he is doomed, so he hid the design drawing of the underground palace in the institution box, hoping that future generations will avenge him and dig graves to vent his anger?"

“It’s not impossible.”
