Chapter 1284: A ridiculous painting
After putting the bedside table and chair back in their original places, Shi Lei put the rocking chair in the original place.
Then, Shi Lei looked at the rocking chair, and there was almost only one point where the feet under the rocking chair were in contact with the floor.
This rocking chair is a little different from what you usually see.
The general rocking chair has two legs, and under the armrests on the left and right sides is where it stands.
At the bottom of this rocking chair, there is only one foot, and its bottom is designed to be shaped like a hemisphere, so that the purpose of making the rocking chair shake can also be used.
However, such a design, in addition to shaking, has another function, that is, this rocking chair can turn like a compass.
Moreover, Shi Lei was on the back of the chair, and as expected, he saw an arrow.
The arrow is hidden in the middle of the pattern on the back of the chair, which is inconspicuous, but it clearly has the function of guiding the way.
Sitting in the rocking chair, Shi Lei took out his mobile phone and turned on the compass function in the mobile phone.
Sure enough, the compass on the phone was affected by some kind of magnetic field, and instead of pointing in the north-south direction correctly, it turned bizarrely.
This shows that at this moment, the magnetic field in this room has undergone a strange change, and there is more than one source of magnetic force, which caused the confusion of the magnetic field, so that the compass could not find north at all.
Standing up again, Shi Lei gently tossed the rocking chair, and sure enough, the rocking chair turned.
didn't make Shi Lei wait too long, the rocking chair stopped, and the back of the chair happened to point to the bedroom window.
Shi Lei walked to the window and looked out, the sky was already very bright at the moment, but Shi Lei didn't find anything strange outside the window.
Because, beyond that window, is the location of the winery's vineyards, even the location of the winemaking workshop, Shi Lei will feel that it may be the location where the biggest secret of this castle is hidden.
But the vineyards, obviously, are unlikely.
After all, the ground in the vineyard has to be hoeed every year, and if the secret passage is hidden under the vineyard, if it is true as the record left in the codex says, the secret passage will have collapsed many times.
Shi Lei returned to the rocking chair and turned the rocking chair again, and the rocking chair quickly stopped again.
This time, however, the back of the chair was pointing to the window.
Shi Lei turned several times in a row, but the back of the chair was not pointing in the same direction, which seemed to indicate that Shi Lei's thinking was wrong.
However, Shi Lei had obviously sensed the location of the mechanism in this room, how could he come up with such a random result?
Is it because the portion is not enough?
Shi Lei's weight was more than 130 pounds, and he immediately moved over the bedside table, brought some things, and pressed them on the rocking chair, which probably made up his weight.
Then, he turned the rocking chair again, but the arrow on the back of the chair pointed in a different direction three times in a row.
Shi Lei fell into an unobtainable situation again, could it be that his judgment was really wrong?
Thinking about it carefully, and thinking more seriously, Shi Lei wanted to know where he still had something missing.
He remembered the parchment codex he had seen before, and there didn't seem to be anything on it that would help Shi Lei.
I thought back to the tablet I saw before, and there was nothing that could help Shi Lei on the documents in the tablet......
Finding nothing, Shi Lei was depressed.
Obviously, he has found the problem, but he is stuck in the last moment, and Shi Lei is very unwilling.
There must be something strange in this room, otherwise, what's going on with this disordered magnetic field?
However, this room has been studied for a long time, and the cause of the magnetic field chaos can only be in the middle of the surrounding walls, and it is controlled by the pressure device of the floor under the rocking chair.
Only if the weight is enough to press on that floor can the magnetic field in the room change, and the change in the magnetic field eventually causes the rocking chair to shake on its own.
The function of this rocking chair is to point out the direction of the entrance to the secret passage, but why does the rocking chair point differently every time?
After studying for a long time, Shi Lei couldn't find the final answer, but heard Andre's voice talking to someone outside the door.
Shi Lei looked at the time, and unconsciously more than three hours had passed, and now it was already more than nine o'clock in the morning.
He washed his face and walked out of the room, anyway, now he and Andre are friends, this castle still has many opportunities to enter, and there is no hurry to find the answer right now.
Seeing Shi Lei coming out of the room, Andre immediately stepped forward with a smile and muttered a word of French, Shi Lei didn't understand, but roughly judged that Andre invited him to breakfast.
The two went downstairs and had breakfast together, yesterday the beautiful translator came over again, Andre asked her to tell Shi Lei that she was going to take Shi Lei to the wine cellar today, where there were a lot of his private collections, no matter what kind of wine Shi Lei liked, he could open it directly and drink it.
Even the 1945 Mouton House is reluctant, and there is nothing to be reluctant with other wines.
Shi Lei didn't want to leave just yet, he was originally worried that Andre didn't plan to continue to entertain him, but now that Andre took the initiative to speak, it means that Shi Lei can continue to stay in the winery, of course he can't ask for it.
went to the wine cellar, Andre took the trouble to introduce his collection to Shi Lei, and there were really a wide variety of wines, each bottle of at least tens of thousands of dollars of red wine.
Shi Lei was also a little absent-minded about this, at least at this time, he didn't have much interest in these fine wines.
made an excuse, Shi Lei said that it was too early and he didn't want to drink so early, so Andre took Shi Lei to prepare to leave the cellar.
Just as the two of them and the beautiful translator were about to leave, the beautiful translator suddenly crashed into an oak barrel.
Shi Lei got closer, and hurriedly helped the beautiful translator.
The beautiful translator thanked again and again, but Andre took the initiative to help up the oak barrel knocked down by the beautiful translator.
It was at this time that Shi Lei suddenly saw something that seemed to have a picture frame behind those oak barrels.
After taking two steps, Shi Lei grabbed the picture frame and took it out.
When Andrei saw it, he smiled and said, "This is a painting that originally hung in the room where you slept yesterday, which I originally left for my father, and when he came once, he saw this painting and thought it was ridiculous, so he asked me to take it out of the house." Although this painting is quite old, probably from the 17th or 18th century, the brushwork is clumsy, and it should be a painting by an ordinary person, so I threw it here. ”
Shi Lei picked up the painting and glanced at it, but he was slightly stunned.
In the frame, the picture is actually the situation in the room where Shi Lei slept yesterday, almost the same, except for the position of the rocking chair.
And, just by looking at it, Shi Lei understood why Andrei's father would say that this painting was ridiculous, because, on this painting, the rocking chair was actually hanging from the roof.
In reverse, the rocking chair is placed on the roof, and the rest of the furniture in the room is all upside down.
Got it!
