Chapter 4569 The secret of the palace!
In Cheng Yu's opinion, the owner here definitely did not gather treasure hunters like them together to kill them all.
But if every treasure hunter wants to get his treasure, he must strictly follow the rules set by him and undergo his test. Only those who pass the test are qualified to get his treasure.
Moreover, he was also sure that there must be an exit from this place to return to the human world.
After all, if he can't go back after getting his treasure, what's the point of putting him through so many tests?
So Cheng Yu is not so anxious to leave here. He knows that it may take a while to find his treasure. It will also take a certain amount of time to leave this place.
In addition, Cheng Yu can be sure that the exit back to the human world designed by the owner here must be different from the exit leading to the treasure land.
If these exits are all the same, wouldn't everyone just go out from here?
So people who come here will only have two possibilities: fail the test and die here or be trapped here. The other possibility is to pass the test, find the treasure and leave here.
According to this logic, under normal circumstances, they must find the treasure first before they have a chance to leave here, otherwise they will never be able to get out.
Therefore, seeing a new step appear at this exit is enough to prove that this exit is not an exit back to the human world, but an entrance to another place again.
However, Cheng Yu did not show any disappointment in this situation, because this was within the logical scope of his reasoning.
If an exit for them to leave appeared directly here, it would make him confused.
However, what Cheng Yu is looking forward to most now is not leaving here. He hopes that this new entrance can take them to the treasure land. That is the most important thing.
In that case, not only can the treasure be found, but there may also be a real exit back to the human world.
"Master, let's go in and take a look first?" Elder Yang stood at the entrance and looked around. He couldn't tell what was going on inside, because unlike the stone steps that went down just now, the stone steps inside were going up.
of.
"Follow me." Cheng Yu nodded and entered the passage first.
After all, he is stronger, more experienced and vigilant. Even if something unexpected suddenly happens in front of him, he will be able to react immediately without suffering a big loss.
The stone steps are not too steep, but they are so long that you can't even see the end at a glance.
But Cheng Yu and the others did not dare to walk too fast. They were careful every time they climbed a step. After all, there were many traps set up here.
Although they did not find some mechanisms, this does not mean that there are no traps.
Even in places where they have already triggered mechanisms, if someone breaks in again, they will probably trigger some mechanisms that they have never encountered before.
So in a place like this, it's always right to be cautious.
"Now I want to understand why this palace is so high." Elder Feng said as he walked carefully on the stone steps.
"Why?" Elder Yang asked.
"Just because we have been walking on these stone steps for so long, I estimate that we have now reached at least half of the palace. If we continue walking like this, we are afraid that we will reach the top of the palace directly." Elder Feng said.
"Maybe the treasure of this palace is at the top," Elder Fan said.
"If this is the case, I'm afraid we won't reach the top of the palace so quickly." Elder Yang said as he looked at the stone steps above.
"It's hard to say. Anyway, we can't see the end here. Maybe our path really leads directly to the top." Elder Feng said.
"Elder Feng's words reminded me." Cheng Yu suddenly said.
"Master, what do you mean by this?" Elder Yang asked.
"We have now found two passages. The previous passage went downwards, which means that the place we arrived at is on the lower level of the main hall where we started.
Now we are walking up again. Judging from the current distance, we are at least two halls high. This means that our current position should be one level higher than the first hall.
This shows that the space inside this palace is also distributed layer by layer, but if we want to enter other layers, we must pass through these passages.
Maybe the treasure is really at the top of the palace, if so, we have to find the passage to the top of the palace now." Cheng Yu said.
"But this is just a guess. The treasure may not be at the top of the palace, but may also be in the middle." Elder Fan said.
"Well, this is indeed possible. However, we were clearly in the same passage before, but the hall that appeared in front of us changed. This made me think of another possibility." Cheng Yu said.
"What's possible?" the three of them asked in confusion.
"If we divide this palace into different levels, do you think that in such a large palace, there will only be one main hall on each level?" Cheng Yu said.
"This..." Everyone was stunned, obviously they had not thought about such a problem.
"Master, you mean that there are different halls on each floor of this palace, and each hall will change?" Elder Yang said.
"It should be impossible to change each hall. We have not found any more halls for the time being. Taking the previous strange situation as an example, we temporarily designated the first floor as two halls. If these two halls are actually
If it is rotating, will the situation we encountered before occur?" Cheng Yu explained.
"So, what we saw at first was one of the halls. When we came back, the two halls rotated, so what we saw was the other hall." Elder Feng seemed to understand what Cheng Yu said,
He said with sudden realization.
"Do you think this is possible?" Cheng Yu nodded and said.
"If this is the case, it can indeed explain why different halls appear when we are clearly walking through the same passage.
But, how does this hall rotate? Why don't we feel it at all?" Elder Yang asked, seeming to understand.
"This is not a problem we have to consider. I think there will always be a way to do it. But we also saw it when we were outside the palace before. This palace is indeed very big.
Although the main hall seems very big, the two main halls do not seem to be comparable to the size of the palace, so I suspect that there are more than two main halls rotating on the same floor, maybe three, four or even more.
." Cheng Yu said.
"But why does the owner of this palace do this? This seems to have no meaning!" Elder Fan asked doubtfully.
"Not necessarily, have you ever heard of the turntable game?" Cheng Yu asked.
"Roulette game? I don't understand!" The three of them looked at each other and shook their heads.
"There is a kind of roulette game in the secular world, which is a big disc and then divided into several equal pieces, with different game content written on each piece.
Turn the disc and select the game content by throwing darts. In whichever game content area the darts land on, you have to complete the game according to the content of that game area." Cheng Yu explained.
"Oh! I understand, Master, you are saying that each floor of our current palace is like a big disk.
This big disk is divided into several halls. We are like darts. Different halls are spinning around in front of us. When we walk through this passage, if we happen to encounter a hall, we must go to the hall in time.
Follow the rules to find passages to other levels!" Elder Feng said with sudden realization.
"Yes, that's the truth. That's why the main hall will be different after we return from that passage, because the main hall has been moved away." Cheng Yu nodded.
"This seems to be true, but I still don't quite understand why the palace owner did this?" Elder Feng then asked.
"This is a test! Think about it, we found the passage so quickly this time, don't you think it's too easy?
If it were the main hall we saw at the beginning, don't you think that there was obviously a dangerous atmosphere in that hall? Do you think we would be able to find the passage so easily in that hall?" Cheng Yu said.
"Master, what you mean is that there are different halls on each floor, and each hall represents a different degree of danger?" Elder Fan said.
"Yes, this is a test of our luck and strength. If we are lucky, we will encounter a relatively safe hall and it will be easier to find a way out.
If we are unlucky, we may encounter a danger or a hall where it is difficult to find a way out.
Of course, if you are unlucky, you may have to rely on your strength." Cheng Yu explained.
"So, haven't we become other people's game tools?" Elder Feng said.
"This is real life. In fact, no matter which world we live in, we are all game tools of the master, but we just don't know it." Cheng Yu said with emotion.
He had never thought about this situation before being reminded by Elder Feng, but when Elder Feng reminded him, he suddenly thought of this possibility.
In fact, when you come to a strange place, it will be very beneficial for everyone if you can understand the place as soon as possible.
If this palace is really what he guessed, it will be very helpful for their next adventure in this palace.
"Master, if this is the case, then do we have to wait until the safest or easiest hall before entering?" Elder Fan said.
