“Bang”
A strong stream of water shot out from the high-pressure water gun again, accurately hitting the east wall of the corridor. In an instant, a piece of moss attached to the wall flew away, exposing the wall below.
You can see that on the newly exposed wall, there is a mysterious symbol unique to the Knights Templar engraved on it. I don’t know what it means specifically.
Since this arched corridor has a slight upward slope, and Ye Tian washes it diagonally from the side, there is no need to worry about the accumulated water flowing into the depths of the corridor and soaking the things hidden inside.
After the high-speed water jet from the high-pressure water gun hits the wall and washes away the moss and dust on the wall, it will flow down the wall, then flow out along the corridor and flow to the basement where Ye Tian and the others are!
Immediately afterwards, the dirty water will be pumped to the ground by the water pump. After a simple filtering, it will be stored in the two fire trucks on the ground for recycling!
In this way, you don’t have to worry about insufficient water storage in the fire truck and can use it freely, and you don’t have to worry about too much water in the basement, which will affect the progress of the exploration!
As he spoke, the high-speed water flow controlled by Ye Tian pushed inward for about one meter along the corridor, clearing out the entire first meter of the east wall of the corridor.
On the cleared wall, there were carved several mysterious symbols unique to the Knights Templar, one of which happened to be on a piece of granite, which seemed to imply or imply something.
In addition to Ye Tian, several guys on the west side of the secret room door also saw the mysterious characters and were guessing and discussing the meaning of those mysterious characters.
Before they could come up with the result of their discussion, Ye Tian used the high-pressure water gun in his hand to reveal the answer himself.
The strong water flow from the high-pressure water gun continued to extend forward, and broke away a thick piece of moss, revealing the granite underneath that was engraved with mysterious symbols.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
“Pa”
With a crisp sound, the piece of granite hit by the high-speed water seemed to slow down and turned inward about thirty degrees with difficulty, and then stopped.
Seeing this scene, Ye Tian immediately pretended to be surprised and said “Huh”, then quickly closed the valve of the high-pressure water gun and looked at the granite that had undergone the change.
The same goes for the guys standing behind him. They all looked at the piece of granite that suddenly flipped thirty degrees. Their eyes were full of curiosity, they were all excited, and they were also a little scared!
As long as you are not a fool, you can see that it is a trap. Although it is not triggered, it is still enough to scare people!
“Wow! There are indeed traps in this corridor. Fortunately, we didn’t enter it rashly, otherwise we would be in big trouble!”
“I don’t know what is hidden behind that piece of granite, a crossbow or a javelin? Why wasn’t it launched? The launching mechanism is probably rusted to death!”
While there was a lot of discussion, everyone looked at the turned piece of granite with lingering fear.
The granite stone is not too big, about 80 centimeters high and 50 centimeters wide. When viewed from the side, the thickness is only 15 centimeters. It should have been deliberately thinned to set up mechanisms. trap!
You can see that behind the granite is a dark cave entrance, but no one knows what is hidden inside.
The reason is very simple. There were no deadly weapons shooting out of the hole, such as crossbows, javelins, or anything else!
Pretending to observe the granite carefully, Ye Tian said loudly:
“As expected! There are indeed traps in this corridor, and they are set up very cleverly. Only in this way can it be considered normal. Otherwise, I would really doubt it. There is nothing at the end of the corridor!
The trigger point of this trap was not the granite. The granite was just a trap door, which happened to be forced open by me with a high-pressure water gun. The real trigger point should be on the corridor floor!
I estimate that the real trigger point is on the floor parallel to the granite. I believe it is not difficult to find. I wonder if the trigger point is still functional and can trigger this trap! ”
As he said that, Ye Tian opened the valve of the high-pressure water gun again and began to use high-speed water to hit the corridor floor, looking for the point that triggered the trap.
As the high-speed water rushed to the ground, the patches of moss attached to the corridor floor were immediately washed away, revealing the floor covering underneath!
Similar to the situation on the walls of the corridor, the granites used to lay the floors of the corridor are also engraved with many mysterious symbols of the Knights Templar, one on each floor!
In the blink of an eye, the area about one meter in front of the corridor floor has been washed away, revealing its original appearance.
When the high-speed water flow pushed to the ground parallel to the granite on the wall and hit a floor on the right side of the corridor, another change occurred.
“Kaka…”
There was a sudden metal friction sound in the corridor, which was extremely harsh.
The sound came from behind the piece of granite on the wall that was turned thirty degrees. It only rang three or four times and then stopped moving.
Nothing was shot out of the black hole behind the granite on the wall, crossbows, javelins or anything like that!
Seeing this scene, there was a small commotion at the scene again, and everyone started talking enthusiastically.
Ye Tian closed the valve of the high-pressure water gun again, then smiled and said loudly:
“Obviously, the granite on the floor of the corridor is the trigger point of this mechanism trap. Unfortunately, due to its existence for too long, this mechanism has been completely scrapped and lost its threatening nature!
Just like the mechanism that opens the door to the secret room, the various metal components that maintain the operation of the mechanism are probably extremely rusted. Even if they are specially treated to prevent rust, they cannot withstand the erosion of time!
Coupled with the dark and humid environment here, it has accelerated the scrapping of various metal mechanisms. According to my estimation, most of the traps in this corridor have been scrapped, just like this mechanism!
But we still have to be careful. There may be traps in this arched corridor. Although such traps look simple, they are also very deadly and will almost never fail! ”
Hearing these words, Bishop Kent and Jason nodded slightly.
After a pause, Ye Tian continued:
“One more thing, these mysterious characters carved on the floor and walls of the corridor must hide the method of passing through this arched corridor. Some characters represent safety and some represent danger.
But this kind of characters is only known to former senior members of the Knights Templar, and has been lost for more than 700 years. None of us know it, so we cannot find a safe passage through these characters.
Furthermore, our time is also quite limited, and we have no time to study these mysterious characters, find out their patterns, and the connections between them, and then decipher their meanings.
For now, we have only one way, and it is also the most effective way! That is to use a high-pressure water gun to open a path, thoroughly clean the corridor, and at the same time find every trap!
As long as I can determine the location of those traps, regardless of whether they are ineffective or not, I will have a way to pass through this arched corridor, destroy all traps, and create a safe path for everyone! ”
“Then what are you waiting for? Steven, let’s start quickly. We can’t wait to pass through this corridor and go to the end of the corridor to see what secrets are hidden there!”
Jason continued, his eyes shining with excitement.
The same goes for everyone else at the scene. They all stared at Ye Tian with their eyes full of expectation.
“Okay! Let’s start now. At the end of this corridor, I believe there must be a huge surprise waiting for us, maybe another major discovery that shocks the world!”
Ye Tian smiled and nodded, his words full of confidence.
Before he finished speaking, he had opened the valve of the high-pressure water gun again and began to wash away the arched corridor.
