616 Penrose Steps
"Little brother, this is all my brother This is Tamsully, Hetis, this is Montlila, drill rat, this time the five of us go down, everything is ready, you see when it will go. ”
The one who spoke was the leader of the tomb robbers, named Ranrantina, and no one knew if it was his real name.
"Boss Tina, you can just look at it, I'll just bring these things. Hua Chen was holding a backpack, which was only filled with a set of mountaineering equipment, as well as a flashlight, water, some sausages, and cooked food such as bagged beef.
Of course, this is all for show, or else they will be suspicious.
Ran Rantina glanced at what Hua Chen was taking, and said in her heart: I don't even blame me for not bringing any self-defense things.
With a smile on his face, he arranged for these people to take their things and then prepare to go, and they took a lot of things.
It is mainly high-tech equipment, which is dedicated to archaeology without documents, such as light excavation equipment.
"Brother has never been to the tomb, when the time comes, follow the boss, the boss will take you down and bring you up. "Montlila is a burly man, one meter eight tall, and his waist circumference is three or four Hua Chen's size.
This made Hua Chen can't help but think, if you are chased by something, can you go up.
When he came to check before, Hua Chen found that there was a Taoist temple in that area, although he was speechless and surprised again for such a thing.
However, there are all the people, there are towns, and there are a few Taoist temples or something, it is nothing.
Hua Chen's destination is this Taoist temple, where there is a secret room, from which it is easy to walk to the nearest place to the tomb.
It is believed that there were people who wanted to use this Taoist temple to steal and excavate this ancient tomb, but because people died before they were dug up, it was abandoned, and no one dared to come here since then.
Entering the Taoist temple, it has been abandoned for many years, so it is in tatters.
The original stone statues and other things had fallen to the ground, and Hua Chen found that there had been a large amount of blood here.
There was definitely a lot of blood flowing out at that time, and after such a long time, you can still see a faint trace of blood.
I don't know what kind of blood it is, but it can be kept for so long.
"Little brother, where is the hole you mentioned? Rantina asked.
When Hua Chen came here to check, he once found a hole.
They checked the situation around one side, but they didn't find the underground cave entrance that Hua Chen said, and they couldn't help but wonder if this kid was fooling them, which made him very unhappy.
"Don't you notice that this Taoist temple is different, you see this side and this side, both of these places have traces of things being moved, and there are concave triangles underneath, and there are nine triangles at intervals. ”
"Nine triangles are arranged on one side and enclosed in a small circle, and in the middle of this small circle, there is a protruding place, on which is the Taoist yin and yang fish, and the place where the two fish eyes are located, and each has a circular depression. ”
Hua Chen pointed to these strange places and said to Ran Rantina and the others.
"Also, you see around this circle, there are concave horizontal lines in eight directions, some are broken from the middle and some are complete, each of which is a whole three horizontals, which should be the Taoist innate gossip and the acquired gossip, the one on the left is congenital, and the one on the right is acquired. ”
"And behind this stone statue, there are some stone bars opposite the concave horizontal line, and there are eight pillars on each side, and there is an iron ring under each pillar. ”
Ran Rantina and the others took a closer look, and sure enough, it was exactly the same as what Hua Chen said, and Ran Rantina gave a look to several other people, and then went to pull those iron rings behind those pillars.
For fear of danger, Ranrantina asked Montlira to pull alone, and they looked around vigilantly, even Hua Chen.
The voice of "Galala~~" sounded.
The hoop was pulled up by Montlily and brought out a stone box, about 30 centimeters high and less than 20 centimeters wide.
Because of the long time, Montlira only opened half of it and couldn't pull it, but if you can open the box, there is no need to pull it again.
"Don't let go of Montlila, you pull this box, I'll open it from this side and see, don't let go, it will fall again." ”
As he spoke, Hertiz took out a shovel with his gloves and tapped it lightly a few times before hooking a dent next to the stone box and opening it.
There is a stone statue lying quietly inside, this stone statue has no face, just looks like a person, there is a triangular protrusion under this stone statue, which looks the same as the depression over there, it should correspond to those depressions.
"Montlila, let go, come to this pillar over here, pull this one apart. When Rantina saw something, several people began to pull out the stone boxes.
There are sixteen stone statues in total, counting from the top on the left, and in the box of the first pillar there is a stone statue, and a thing that looks like a weighing hammer, and it looks like a tripod, which is a metal object.
In the last box on the right, there is also an iron statue, eighteen of them, the same number as the circle formed by the two triangular depressions, and the horizontal stripes behind the broken stone statues are the same as those horizontal depressions, only four fish eyes are missing.
"Little brother, these things are enough, there are still four rounds left here, where to find this, or you can take a look. At this time, Ran Rantina didn't dare to be too strong, for fear that Hua Chen would be unhappy and leave, so they wouldn't come in vain.
Hua Chen said: "Hehe~~ Look at the mouth of the broken stone statue, the chin can be moved, you look at what is there, and the fourth fish eye is not round, but the shape of a fist, just now I looked at the right hand of the stone statue here, it can be taken down." ”
When Ran Rantina and the others were talking in Huachen, they had already gone to see the chins of the three stone statues, and sure enough, they could be opened, and there was a round bead inside, which looked like jade, but it was very astringent, and it was impossible to tell what the material was.
Then, Hua Chen dismantled the right hand of one of the stone statues, and then put it together with other items, and several people went over to check which depressions, because the items were different, so they had to take a closer look at the corresponding position to avoid accidents.
After studying for a while, several people saw that there was a little trace under the two iron statues, and one of the depressions also had that trace, so they put these stone statues in the depressions where there were no traces, and then put the two iron statues and three fish eyes and a stone hand into them.
After everything was put in place, there was still no movement, Hua Chen pressed the stone hand, turned it to the left hard, and then listened to the sound of Kazizi, and then a hole appeared in the center of the hall, and there were steps below, which looked quite deep.
"Little brother, we have a lot of things, and we walk slowly, how about you walk ahead with a lamp. Ranrantina said with a look of embarrassment.
In fact, it was Hua Chen who was asked to go to the thunder, how could Hua Chen not know?
It's just that these things are nothing to him, and he takes the lead.
If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't done it, these people happened to be from the Protoss, and they were ready to pit them, so Hua Chen didn't bother to take care of them.
Although, Hua Chen himself can also use ultra-high technology and cultivation, who knows what kind of mechanism there is in the tomb, in case everything is destroyed, it will not be worth the loss?
Ji Yi also told Hua Chen that this is said to be a tomb, but in fact it is just an empty tomb, that is, a fake tomb, mainly to hide something.
And Ran Rantina and the others, seeing Hua Chen walking down obediently, leaked a sinister smile.
"Montlily Ladies your palace, old sixteen, you are clever, follow that kid, pay attention to safety. Rantina commanded, then took her equipment and followed Hertis.
This step, Hua Chen swept it with data, there were only about a hundred steps, and he kept going down without paying much attention, and after walking about 150 steps, Hua Chen felt that something was wrong.
Scanned with the data again, Tsai took a closer look, and chuckled, it turned out to be the Penrose Ladder.
After knowing that it was Penrose Staircase, Hua Chen was in the mood to see the excitement and wanted to see how these tomb robbers would deal with it.
The Penrose Ladder is a well-known geometric paradox that refers to a ladder that is always up or down, but loops infinitely, and can be seen as a variant of the Penrose triangle, where the highest point, or the lowest point, can never be found.
In fact, it is also a variant of the low-level dimensional theory, but unfortunately, in the end, it is a low-level dimensional space, which is nothing to people like Hua Chen.
Ran Rantina and the others, who were blindly going up and down the stairs, had not yet found that they had fallen into an infinite loop, Hua Chen held his arms and watched their impromptu performance, I have to say that this is also a very good way of entertainment.
"Boss, we've been down for a long time, why haven't we reached the end yet, there are at least thousands of steps. ”
After more than an hour, Herthys was the first to feel strange, and after more than an hour, he realized that it was not too late.
Hua Chen smiled secretly in his heart, and Zhou Jingzhidu behind him had already taken out the wine and celebrated.
"Yes, Ran Rantina Boss, don't say it, I really don't know, I'm tired to death, how can there be so many steps. ”
Hua Chen said, bending over and pretending to be very tired and sitting on the steps, hammering his legs, in fact, he never left, just looked up and down not far away, but he stood still where he could be seen, these people were in a hurry to go down, and they didn't notice it at all.
"I also feel that something is wrong, as if I have been standing still, come, get up, let's go and see again, if I still can't go down and think about it. After Rantina finished speaking, she stood up and walked down, and Hua Chen was here with her arms crossed and watched the show.
It's really fun to watch them step by step, cautious, but they just can't get out, and then they become more and more anxious.
Hua Chen is a fun-loving character, so naturally he will not miss this kind of scenery.
Of course, if it weren't for these people who killed Hua Chen, Hua Chen wouldn't be so good, but now~~ Hehe.
It's just that they don't have murderous intentions towards Hua Chen, Hua Chen really won't watch a good show?
"No, Boss, this may be the Corridor of the Return, no matter how you go, you will always return to the starting point and cycle on the Return-shaped Ladder. ”
Hertis's words surprised Hua Chen, isn't this the Penrose Ladder?
How do you call it the Peak Corridor?
Is this the name of the empire under the Protoss?
The second point is that Herthys actually broke through the mystery in one sentence, which is not simple.
It is worthy of being a professional non-licensed worker.
Ran Rantina said: "Old Sixteen, what do you say we should do now." ”
"Boss, let's walk a little slower like this, just walk along the wall and find another step, this kind of corridor back to the peak is just a different angle, we have been walking on one side, so it will always be in a loop. ”
I have to say that this old sixteen is really a genius, but it's a pity that he is a tomb robber, and he is a god clan.
Hua Chen didn't speak, he watched them perform to his heart's content, and several people searched back and forth for more than a dozen times, but still didn't find the exit, it was not that Hetis's method was wrong, but the location of the exit was sealed with a wooden board by the person who built the stairs, and it was impossible to find it without knocking.
Seeing that the time was almost over, Hua Chen stopped playing, and pretended to unintentionally hit the top of the partition, making a muffled sound with a 'bang'.
Hettis hurried over to inspect the partition, and after a careful knock, he realized that this was the exit.
"Boss, the exit is here, it turned out that they blocked it, if it weren't for the little brother's fall, we would really not be able to find it. The old sixteen shouted loudly to Ran Rantina and the others, and Ran Rantina quickly ran over, but there was one less of the original five people.
Seeing that there was one person missing, Ranrantina said, "What about Tamsuli? Why don't you see Tamsuli?" ”
"I don't know, I was with him just now, you called me over, and I was still talking to him, why didn't I see him. "The drill rat was with Tamsuri, but he didn't see him either.
"Go back and look for it, little brother, you are waiting here, see that your little arms and legs can't run fast. Seeing Hua Chen sitting on the steps panting, Rantina glanced at her with disdain, said so, and then led the others to find Tamsuli.
Hua Chen didn't notice where Tam Suli went, he had been watching the play just now, and he didn't use the data permission to look at them, but he just sensed whether there was danger around, and at this time, he used the data permission to look around, but he didn't see him.
"What's going on? Where can I go in such a short time. Hua Chen was depressed.
wanted to expand the scope of data permissions, but found that in a position below, it was impossible to see through with data permissions, which made Hua Chen very surprised, there was still a place that could cover data permissions, it was really amazing.
Ranrantina and the others searched around and around, but still did not find Tam Suli, and in one corner, they found something on Tam Suli.
But that position is not any exit, and these people are a little panicked, but people die for money, birds die for food, so they don't flinch.
"Little brother, Tamsuri fell down just now, and she rested on it, so she won't come, let's go in. Then Rantina opened her eyes and said nonsense.
Of course Hua Chen knew what he meant, in order not to let Hua Chen back down, his brother's life could lie, and there were several brothers around him.
For them, Hua Chen is a cannon fodder who specializes in testing the ambush of the agency.
These tomb robbers are not highly cultivated, but they have special skills.
And Hua Chen, the first time they saw him, they felt that he, even if he had cultivation, was not high~~
It's really Hua Chen, this kid, he can pretend too much!
Hua Chen sneered in his heart, and said without moving: "It's okay, I can understand when I'm older, just a few of us go in." ”
A few people glanced at each other, and then let Hua Chen walk in front, they followed Hua Chen and walked in, the steps here were obviously shortened a lot, only a dozen steps were already in the end.
After the end, everyone looked around and found that this was just a hand-mined cemetery, but the cemetery was terminated only ten meters away, and the soil in the tomb was red, probably because people had bled too much and died here, and the blood donation was integrated into the soil, which looked like blood soil because it was wet.
However, this also proves that someone did die here before, and the strange thing is that there are no bones, could it be that someone collected their bodies?
"This is full of rocks, where does the soil come from?" Hua Chen was a little puzzled when he saw these blood soils, it stands to reason that there should not be soil, it is not strange that there is soil on the rocks, but this place is all stones, but there is soil in this tomb, which is strange.
"Yes, boss, there shouldn't be soil here, and it's impossible for someone to dig a tomb on the rock, and bring in soil to fill the grave road, right?"
"Ignore him for now, Old Sixteen, you see where the soul can be installed, find a safe place, and get it out of the way quickly. "Rantina doesn't know how to have soil, but is it difficult to make soil stumped when she's already here?
Hertiz answered, then looked around in the tomb, and when he entered, he found that the soil was not deep at all, only more than 20 centimeters.
This is even more strange, there is so much soil in this ten-meter tomb road, if it is because of the soil mined below, it would be easy to say, but now Hua Chen is even more confused.
Hertiz looked at it carefully for a moment, and then in one place he used a light drill to make a hole in the stone wall.
It seems that he wants to install soul energy in that position, Hua Chen also glanced around with data permissions, and found that there was no way to see through the square position.
"All retreat, this soul is powerful, be careful. Hettis stepped back as he spoke, and then Tina and the others also retreated, and after retreating to a safe position, Hertiz began to blast.
This is called smooth blasting, and contour control technology must be used to ensure that the rock mass is retained according to the design, the contour surface is formed and the surrounding rock is prevented from being damaged.
Commonly used contour control~~ I have to say that this tomb robbery still involves so many technologies, Hua Chen shook his head and smiled, what can you do with this technology?
"Boom. "A bang.
, The whole underground shook, a piece of dust in front of me, and after the dust fell, I saw a hole appear in front of everyone, and the depth was at least four or five meters, and there was already a tomb road of ten meters, and the tomb door on the opposite side could already be seen at this moment.
