Chapter 121: The Eyeless Stone Statue
Hearing Li Hao say this, Qiangzi walked up to the humanoid stone statue and looked at it carefully, and suddenly said: "You see, although the eyes of this stone statue are facing the flat ground below, why does it have no pupils?" ”
Hearing Qiangzi say this, the other three people came over to take a closer look, and sure enough, there were no pupils, and the deep eye sockets were facing the flat ground, but if there were no pupils, they couldn't be sure where it was looking? The rest of the stone statues have very clear depictions of the eyes, and the pupils are facing the flat ground below, so the answer lies in these eyes.
Li Hao was still puzzled, walked to the humanoid stone statue and looked at each other directly opposite the stone statue, thinking about why the people of the poor country did this, seeing that the head of this stone statue was very detailed and realistic, the facial features were polished very well, and even the double eyelids of the stone man were ground out, why did he leave an empty eye socket?
Luo Daxi came up and patted the stone statue and said: "This must be a leader, this is called no 'benevolence' in the eyes, and leaders are like this." Li Hao heard Daxi say this, a bright light flashed in his mind, but unfortunately he couldn't catch it, and repeated what Luo Daxi said in his heart, leader, no one in his eyes, what do the people of the poor country want to explain?
There was an idea floating around in his mind, but Li Hao always couldn't catch it, and he said to Luo Daxi in a hurry: "What did you just say?" Say it again! ”
Luo Daxi heard Li Hao's sudden burst out of this sentence, a little inexplicable, but he still said what he just said: "I just said that this stone figure is like a leader, and the leader's eyes are like no one in his eyes." ”
Yes, Li Hao's heart moved, it should be like this, thinking of this, Li Hao showed a smile on his face, looked at Luo Daxi and said, "You guy is too godly." You've guessed everything. ”
When this sentence came out, not only did Luo Daxi not know what it meant, but even Qiangzi and Zhou Yuanhang didn't know what Li Hao meant, Luo Daxi asked: "What does it mean, why don't I always understand?" ”
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, I'll confirm it first and see if this is the answer!" After Li Hao finished speaking, he handed the gun in his hand to Luo Daxi, walked to the other four stone statues, lay on the ground and carefully observed the bottom of the stone statues, and after looking at the four stone statues, he came over and said to a few people: "I think I know the answer." Let's confirm it now. ”
Qiangzi couldn't help it, Luo Daxi couldn't understand it anyway, so he simply didn't ask, looking at what Li Hao wanted to do, but Qiangzi couldn't help it anymore? watched Li Hao lie on the ground and look at the stone statues next to each other. After reading it, he said that he had an answer, and hurriedly asked, "Do you know where the entrance is?" How to find it? ”
Li Hao smiled mysteriously and said, "Come and see these stone statues." The figure in the middle is flat at the bottom. And what about the other stone statues on all four sides? The bottom is all arced, just now when Luo Daxi said that this is the leader, I thought, if this is really the leader or the king, then his subordinates should pay attention to the salute, but you look at the rest of the stone statues are looking elsewhere. ”
When Hadron heard this, he understood and said, "So that's so." Let's try it out. ”
Zhou Yuanhang heard this and understood what was going on, and said, "Then we just need to turn the stone statue to face the one in the middle?" Do they have any mechanism? ”
"You don't need any linkage devices, don't forget that these are magnets, and they have a huge attraction to each other." Li Hao explained.
Just at the point where a few people were still talking. Luo Daxi had already walked to a stone statue and began to rotate, under its force, the huge stone statue just shook a little, although the bottom was arced, but the huge weight increased the friction between the stone statue and the mountain stone, ordinary people couldn't move at all, Luo Daxi's strength was already good, and it could also make Zhong seven or eight tons of stones shake.
Luo Daxi tried a few more times, and really used the strength to eat, but the stone statue still didn't move, so he said frustratedly: "It's not that the master has little strength, it's that this thing is too heavy!" Can't move at all. ”
Qiangzi also came over to try it, and said to Qiangzi and Li Hao: "The three of us come together, it should be enough." Li Hao heard the words and walked up, and together with Qiangzi and Luo Daxi, he had enough strength to push the stone at the same time, with the strength of the three of them, the huge stone made a creaking sound, and slowly rotated, it was very difficult at first, but after half of the rotation, it was easy to get up, and with a snap, the bottom of the stone statue made a snap sound when the stone statue was facing the humanoid stone statue in the middle, and with this sound, the humanoid stone statue in the middle shook obviously, and it was! This simple shake was the best answer for the four men, and it seemed that their analysis was correct, and now they could open the entrance to the treasure by turning the other three as well.
The first success stimulated three people, they immediately came to another stone, and struggled to turn the second stone statue, with a low sound of crackling, the stone statue in the middle shook violently, but at the moment when everyone thought it was successful, the stone statue that had just turned the position automatically turned back, and changed back to the position of looking at the flat ground just now.
"What's going on?" The four of them looked at each other, could it be that they didn't turn to the position just now and bounced back? Li Hao, Qiangzi and Luo Daxi came over and looked at it suspiciously, I don't know why, the three of them could only turn the stone statue again, just like just now, turned to the middle humanoid stone statue and made a snap, the middle humanoid stone statue shook violently again, but the situation that made everyone vomit blood appeared again, and the second stone statue that was turned suddenly returned to its original state.
This time, the four people were completely stunned on the spot, it seemed that the two stone statues could not face the humanoid stone statue in the middle at the same time, it was not that they did not have a good position. The four of them discussed with each other and decided to try to turn another stone first, so the three of them came to another stone and slowly turned it with all their strength, and with the squeaky sound, a low sound came from the crack, and the frustrating and unexpected thing happened again, and the first stone statue turned back.
This time, the four of them are completely powerless, and they are really teasing people, so when will it be over? There was only one humanoid stone statue in the middle, but it couldn't open the entrance at all.
Unwilling to fail, several people tried other stones, and finally fell to the ground limply, the result was that any two stone statues could not face the humanoid stone statue in the middle at the same time, they tried all the combinations, every time they could make the stone statue in the middle shake, each time gave them confidence, but in exchange for failure again and again, after a few turns, the three people completely lost their strength, lying on the ground and did not want to move.
In fact, the three of them are not out of strength, but they have no confidence, and everything they do is useless, what can hit people more than failures again and again? What can one do in times of despair? Should I continue or give up? So far, no one is willing to give up, Li Hao is lying on the ground, his body is resting, but his mind keeps spinning.
Li Hao said: "Maybe we can try to rotate four stone statues at the same time. ”
Luo Daxi lay there and said without opening his eyes: "That's impossible, the three of us have to work hard to turn, two people can barely turn one, and one person can't turn at all!" ”
Zhou Yuanhang stood in front of the three people, looked at them lying on the ground and said, "Maybe I can think of a way." ”
"What's the solution?" As soon as Li Hao heard that Zhou Yuanhang had an idea, he sat up and asked.
Zhou Yuanhang said: "Actually, it's very simple, we can use leverage, aren't there some dead poplar trees not far away?" Let's pick a few sturdy tree trunks that we can use as levers, which should be able to pry the rocks. ”
The principle of leverage even elementary school students understand, how can the three of them not know, now listening to Zhou Yuanhang, immediately came to the spirit, just now the fatigue was swept away, excited to stand up, immediately put into action, along the original road through the wind barrier out, retreat into the desert, in a flat snow field there are a lot of poplar trees, has no vitality, under the snow is the desert, poplar once grew tenaciously in the desert, but in the end it was robbed of life by the desert, the death of the poplar will not fall easily, Still standing like a warrior in the desert. The tiny branches have been carried away by the wind and turned into dust, leaving only the thick trunk standing, using its dry torso to continue to drink the wind and sand.
The four of them selected four relatively straight tree trunks and cut them down, because of the long distance, when they returned to the slope of the stone statue, it was already dark, and the anxious four people could not wait for dawn to do things, so they immediately took a stone statue for each person, found a good fulcrum and pried the stone hard.
With the help of the lever, Li Hao went quite smoothly, and the boulder slowly rotated under the pry of his lever, but only he went relatively smoothly, and the strong son and Luo Daxi only rotated half the distance before they could not use their strength, or a little worse. Zhou Yuanhang's effect was even worse, his strength was the least, and he only barely turned a little under the pry of the lever.
Zhou Yuanhang put the tree trunk on the ground for a while, and the person lay down on the slope full of stones, he didn't even have the strength to speak, just gasped for breath, and said after a while: "Mouse, no, a tree trunk is heavy enough, just a little bit, tomorrow, it should be okay to rest tomorrow." ”
Li Hao looked at Zhou Yuanhang who was lying on the ground, and then looked at Qiangzi and Luo Daxi, he was indeed tired for a day, and he might be better tomorrow when he was full of strength after resting for a night. Qiangzi also said: "It's really too tired, let's rest, try again tomorrow, it should be about the same." ”
After resting for a night, several people stood in their positions with confidence, and started the first attempt of a new day, and sure enough, after resting, the strength of several people recovered a lot, but Zhou Yuanhang still couldn't turn the stone, but he couldn't move anymore after turning about twenty degrees.
Zhou Yuanhang looked at the rest of the people helplessly, his mind suddenly came to his heart, and he said happily: "I have a way!" (To be continued......)
PS: There are many stone statues in the Xinzhuang area, and there are many types, some are natural, some are man-made, and there are many legends that they are made of meteorites. Many of them were left on the burial pits after the death of the nomads at that time, like the tombstones of the Central Plains.
