Volume 4: It's Dark, Please Close Your Eyes Chapter 55 I think I can still save it
Although the seven keys all looked different, every two or three of them had one place in common. After Tang Zheng found all the identical places, he discovered that these places appeared on different parts of the keys.
There is no problem.
The puzzle of the first door is solved!
Just put the same parts on the seven keys together and you will get the shape of the key to open the door.
So, the only question now is how to get such a key.
Tang Zheng was not in a hurry. He took the remaining keys and went to the second door.
However, the second door was not as easy to open as the first one. He inserted a key and it changed into another door. He inserted another key and it changed into another door. After Tang Zheng had tried all the keys in his hand, he found that twenty-three of them had changed.
That leaves only one key!
Tang Zheng raised his head and looked at the door twenty meters in the sky.
The last remaining key should be the one to open the third door.
To match the key for the first door, you only need to find the common points among seven keys, which is relatively easy. But to match the key for the second door, you need to find the most common points among twenty-three keys, which is a bit troublesome.
Fortunately, it’s just troublesome, not impossible to find.
Soon, patterns of two keys appeared on the ground under Tang Zheng's feet - they were the keys to the first door and the second door.
However, there is still some problem in how to turn the design into a finished product.
At times like this, it's like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers.
For example, you can take a key and insert it into the keyhole repeatedly, letting it change again and again. It will definitely change to the correct style in the pattern one time. However, this method is time-consuming and laborious, and whether it will succeed in the end depends on a bit of luck.
Tang Zheng naturally didn't need to go through so much trouble.
Because, in addition to being a warrior, he is also a half-baked blacksmith.
Although the dry food in the backpack had mysteriously disappeared, there were still some good materials. He didn't ask for a furnace, but directly used his star power to start processing a piece of ice and fire black iron.
With Tang Zheng's ability to control star power, processing the materials into a predetermined shape was not a difficult task. He did not rush the work and handled it very carefully.
Just like that, a key made of precious materials and finely polished appeared.
Tang Zheng did not stop and continued to make the second one.
Soon, the second key was successfully produced.
He held the two keys in his hands, compared them for a long time, looked thoughtfully at the first door, then at the second door, and finally at the third door.
Then, he moved away from the first door and opened the second door with a click.
It's not that he is overly suspicious.
Instead, the three keys are arranged in the order of second, first, and third, from small to large.
Among them, the key to the third door is the largest.
Tang Zheng decided to open the doors in order from small to large.
After a slight sound, the second door opened, but there was no door opening. Inside was a small room with a floor of about one meter by one meter, and there was another small handle inside.
Tang Zheng went back and opened the first door...
Open the door and kill!
What jumped out were actually big rats. Tang Zheng's star power surged all over his body and he killed them one by one. However, after killing one, two came out. After killing two, four came out. Moreover, each rat that came out was stronger than the previous one...
"What happened?" Tang Zheng didn't have time to think about what he did wrong in opening the first door. He immediately prepared to use his footwork martial arts to fly into the air to avoid this round of attacks. However, just as the star power circuit of his footwork martial arts was built, a sharp purple light flashed and directly interrupted his star power circuit!
Boom.
Tang Zheng fell to the ground in a mess.
He still didn't have time to think about what was going on. Almost relying on the instinct of a professional player, he turned around, went into the second door, and quickly pulled the handle.
With a whoosh, a wooden platform hung by four ropes descended from the top like an elevator...
Tang Zheng didn't have time to think about it. He used his hands and feet to climb up the cliff next to him, then turned around and jumped onto the wooden platform.
There were a lot of mice chirping below.
Tang Zheng glanced at the third door above...
In fact, he never thought that there would be any trouble with the third door. He was already a five-star warrior and could open the door by simply using his footwork and martial arts skills.
But now it seems that the remains of the Purple Gold Emperor actually have a similar effect to a no-fly zone.
Tang Zheng felt more and more that something was wrong...
"There are too many rats here." Although Tang Zheng had temporarily escaped from the encirclement of rats, it was not a good idea for him to be hung on a platform in the center of this "secret room".
deadlock?
Tang Zheng even thought about practicing two more rounds of footwork martial arts?
Maybe he could fly to the third door in one breath?
Now he was only ten meters away from the third door, but unfortunately the mountain wall next to the door was too smooth. Tang Zheng was not sure if he could climb up with only two daggers.
However, when he started practicing martial arts again, he didn't even start practicing, and the star power circuit that was half built was interrupted again.
Tang Zheng was speechless and spat at the rat below.
"How about... taking a risk?" Tang Zheng exerted a little force with his feet, and the whole platform began to shake. He waited until the platform shook to a certain extent, then jumped up and jumped towards the mountain wall where the third door was.
bite.
bite.
Han Jiangxue and Shan Bi were respectively stuck into the hard stone wall, flashing faint starlight.
Tang Zheng was just feeling happy when he heard an unnecessary "ding" sound...
This "ding" sound is really redundant, because it is the sound of keys falling!
The key to the third door that was in his sleeve just now fell down because of his large movements...
"I'm so unlucky that even drinking cold water will get my teeth stuck." Tang Zheng's mood at this moment was beyond description.
…
As a professional player, such a mistake is almost unforgivable.
However, being "irredeemable" is worse than being unforgivable.
There is only one key for the third door, and if it falls, it will be gone.
However, it was this "ding" sound that made Tang Zheng realize what he had done wrong when he opened the first door.
direction!
The second door had its keyhole facing downwards, and Tang Zheng was rotating it clockwise, but the first door had its keyhole facing upwards, so he should have rotated it counterclockwise - he only realized this mistake when he saw from close range that the third door had its keyhole facing downwards.
Tang Zheng could even predict what the situation would be like if the first door was also opened?
The handle on the second door can lower the wooden platform, so there should also be a handle in the first door to raise the wooden platform.
In this way, the wooden platform comes down to pick up Tang Zheng, and then rises up to send him to the third door. This is the correct and perfect rhythm.
But now the first door is opened in the wrong way!
"Is there any way to remedy the situation?" Tang Zheng no longer thought about the mistake he had just made. The more important question now was what he should do.
The point is, he had already made amends.
When the two daggers successfully stabbed into the smooth mountain wall , he thought he had succeeded in remedying the situation.
But……
But the key fell!
Tang Zheng's current situation is even worse than when he was on the wooden platform hanging from the ceiling.
Although the wooden platform was a little shaky, at least sitting on it, standing on it, lying on it, or even rolling on it was not a problem.
What is Tang Zheng’s current condition?
Hanging on the smooth mountain wall, unable to move forward or backward.
Even if his physical strength could support him hanging for three days and three nights, that was not a solution.
Tang Zheng was so unethical that he spat down there .
If he had more saliva, he would really want to drown all these damn rats one by one!
"Wait... drowned?" Tang Zheng had just thought of this word when he saw the mouse that was hit by his saliva fall to the ground, twitching, and then lying on its back motionless.
Tang Zheng's gaze slowly turned to some places...
Since he entered here, he has been trying to find ways to avoid danger and seek a breakthrough. Although there have been some mistakes, he feels that even if a seven-star warrior comes here, he can't do better than him.
Because, in this place, the space for him to exert his star power is very limited.
Tang Zheng's gaze moved across the mountain walls, and then stopped in front of a mountain wall where he had heard the sound of water before.
"Although this is a last resort... But it seems that this is the only way left now ." Tang Zheng closed his eyes and inserted the dagger down little by little. When there was only a little distance from the ground, he suddenly jumped down and reached out to pick up the fallen key...
All the mice rushed towards him.
They are so fast!
There was not enough time for him to run to the second door, find the perfect angle, climb up the stone wall, and then jump onto the wooden platform.
So he didn't move at all, but turned around quickly and fired two starting moves at the rock wall and the rope on the wooden platform respectively.
boom……
Although it is just an ordinary opening move, it is the opening move of a five-star strong man!
The piece of rock he had chosen immediately cracked, and the rushing water almost knocked him back.
The mice squeaked but kept rushing towards Tang Zheng...
However, just as they pounced on him, a huge splash of water rose up, and Tang Zheng jumped onto the wooden platform on the water surface after he had cut the rope at the same moment the rats pounced on him!
"Huh..." Tang Zheng hadn't dealt with such a scene in a long time. He checked the key to the third door that he had fished out again, and thought to himself that he must not lose it again this time.
Many mice wanted to swim towards Tang Zheng, but their lifespan in the water was too short and they could no longer pose any threat to Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng also took the opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief.
It should have been a natural process, with one switch lowering the platform and another switch raising the platform, and then taking the elevator directly. However, because of such a small mistake, such a dangerous accident occurred.
It was just such a small mistake!
The remains of the Purple Gold Emperor are truly merciless.
"Huh, open the third door and I should be able to get out, right?" Tang Zheng looked at the speed at which the water level was rising and estimated the time required to reach a height of 20 meters. He sat on the wooden platform and took the time to rest.
