Chapter 505: The Endless Place (Part II)

The exit is in the corner on the right-hand side, and this one is different from the others, not a passageway or a downward trapdoor, but a small corner door, and it is so low that you can only bend over it. I took the lead and was the first to get in.

Behind the small corner gate is a corridor, which is very high, but narrow, and can only allow one person to pass through. As the road went down, I noticed that the steps under my feet were still the kind of drape stamping, which showed that this area was still the scope of Zuo Ci's grave.

"We're getting closer to the finish line." Yun Ximing said.

"I hope so." Dazhe said helplessly. I'm afraid everyone thinks the same in their hearts, no matter what the secret of this end is, and no matter whether this Zuo Ci's grave is buried in a mountain of knives or a sea of fire, we are ready to break through, it is better than going down the stairs here boringly.

However, we were all wrong, and the staircase seemed to be endless, and for an hour, we kept going down, with a few twists and turns in between, but there was no end in sight.

"Brother Gongzi, you can be regarded as a slap in the face this time, I found that you came to this Zuoci Ancient Tomb, it seems that you have been slapping your face, there are few things that are right, this does not seem to match your usual god operator plus Baidu Encyclopedia's character." Dazhe said.

"Don't talk about cool words, you think what I said is wrong, then you should say, when will we get to the end, you can predict it." Yun Ximing was also smoldering, and he and Dazhe raised the bar.

"Yin Yin, this Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, according to you. It's upside down in the ground, and it stands to reason that we've gone up to the seventh layer. Why there is still no end. Uncle Lu asked.

Ji Ziyang said, this tower rushed down. It is possible that it was damaged when it fell here, and Zuo Ci built his own tomb here, so I am afraid that we may not be in the tower now. I said.

"Could it be that we have actually come out of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda now, and this is actually Zuo Ci's tomb, this kind of situation that can't go no matter how you go, is actually just a bottomless endless hole." Min Lan guessed.

"Min Lan, when are you, just like Brother Gongzi, everything is always pulled to the natural landscape, and you also want to do Baidu Encyclopedia. Besides. How can there be a bottomless pit like that, the earth is round, and if there really is a bottomless pit, then it will not flow out from the other end. Dazhe said.

"Fatty, what you said about the earth is round, this is true, this shows that you really have a certain amount of geographical knowledge." Yun Ximing said sarcastically.

"You don't come to hurt me, the earth is round. Even children know it, and I know what's so strange. Dazhe said unconvinced.

"However, I still have to correct you, because the bottomless pit really exists." Yun Ximing said.

"Does it really exist? Bottomless pit? Dazhe asked in surprise.

"Of course. But the bottomless pit isn't really bottomless. A bottomless pit generally refers to a hole or abyss where the bottom cannot be detected. Incoming water or other substances reach the center of the earth. Scientists speculate that black holes. ”

"Black holes? Isn't that something that only exists in the universe, how can it still appear on land? Dazhe asked.

"It doesn't have to be on land. There are several bottomless pits that have been discovered on Earth. One of them is located on the waterfront of the ancient city of Argos, Greece. Due to its proximity to the sea, at high tide. The turbulent sea water will pour into the cave like a mountain, forming a turbulent rapid. It is measured. More than 30,000 tons of sea water flow into the cave every day, and it is strange that such a large amount of seawater is poured into the cave and never fills the hole. Many attempts have been made to find an outlet for it, but in vain. In order to uncover the secret, there was an expedition that dissolved a dark dye that lasted for a long time in the seawater and observed how the dye sank with the seawater. He then inspected the nearby sea and the various rivers and lakes on the islands, but was disappointed that no colored waters were found. A few years later, they experimented with a small pale rose-colored plastic particle. This is a plastic particle that is slightly lighter than water, can float in water without sinking to the bottom, and will not be dissolved by water. They threw a number of these substances with a special mission into the swirling water. In a moment, all the small plastic particles were like a whole, all swallowed up by the bottomless pit, and they imagined that as long as one grain came out of another place, they could find an exit to the bottomless pit. However, hundreds of people were mobilized, and after searching the waters for more than a year, they still found nothing. ”

"So, this bottomless pit really has no bottom." Dazhe said.

"It's not just this one. In the northern part of the Indian Ocean, there is a bottomless pit with a radius of three nautical miles. The typical monsoon currents cause the currents here to flow in opposite directions twice a year. In summer, the southwest monsoon prevails, and the sea flows from west to east; Winter is the opposite. It is also bottomless and unmeasurable. Not only abroad, but also in China. Shihaidong Township, Xingwen County, Sichuan Province, China, has such a big funnel. Whether it is a torrential downpour or a gathering of mountains and rivers, there is no water at the bottom. However, unlike the previous bottomless pits, various detection methods are usually used, and the remains of the water that disappeared in the funnel can always be found, and they will always reappear on the ground near or far. However, the bottomless pit near the island of Kefalonia is different, and the water that has disappeared there is nowhere to be found. Yun Ximing said.

"These bottomless pits aren't craters or something." Yun Xian asked.

"It is not yet known about this, but scientists believe that the bottomless pit may be a black hole that has not yet been recognized, and the black hole may have a huge gravitational field radiating outward from the center, but this needs to be further investigated." Yun Ximing said.

"The idea of the bottomless pit is not new, and the discovery of the bottomless pit has been written about it in China for a long time." I said, "It is recorded in Liezi Tangwen: The east of the Bohai Sea is hundreds of millions of miles. There is a big ravine, but there is a bottomless valley, and there is no bottom under it, and the name is called the ruins. The water of the eight or nine wilds, the flow of heaven and Han, all pay attention to it, and there is no increase or decrease. It's a bottomless pit. ”

"Yin Yin, if we are really in the bottomless pit now, will we never reach the end?" Sister Wang Na asked.

"How to say it, what Dazhe just said is actually very reasonable, it's not that there is no end, if there is no end, we will go to the other side of the earth, this is not a terrible thing, but the terrible thing is that this downward road can actually have an end, but this end is very far away. And at the other end of this end is the center of the earth. I said.

"The center of the earth? This is quite interesting, isn't it like what is written in "Journey to the Center of the Earth", there is actually another world underneath? Yun Ning said.

"What is a journey to the center of the earth?" Dazhe asked ignorantly.

"Brother Dazhe, you really should read more books. "Journey to the Center of the Earth" is a novel by the French writer Jules Verne, about a professor named Rieden Bullock who stumbles upon a piece of parchment in an old book, and he gets a revelation from the words on this parchment: Arna Sarconusem traveled to the center of the earth. Professor Liedon Bullock decided to make the same trip. So he took his nephew Axey, as well as enough food, instruments, and weapons, and set out from Hamburg, and when he arrived in Iceland, he was accompanied by a guide, Hans. After a three-month journey, the three of them descended from the Snæfellsjölfer crater in Iceland, and after a three-month journey, they experienced difficulties and dangers such as lack of water, getting lost, and storms, and finally returned to the surface from a crater on the island of Stolumpoli in northern Sicily in the Mediterranean Sea due to the impact of rock flows. It also records the hardships of the journey and the wonders of the underground. It's really fun. Yun Ning said.

"I joined the army early, but unlike you, I still have a lot of time to read novels when I go to college or something." Dazhe quibbled.

"But Brother Dazhe, I read this book when I was in elementary school, so there is only one explanation." Yun Ning said with a smile.

"What's the explanation?" Dazhe asked.

"This book is a must-read extracurricular reading recommended during the winter and summer vacations of elementary school, and you didn't complete your homework." Yun Ning said.

"Okay, fatty, you don't have to be embarrassed anymore." Min Lan couldn't stand it anymore and said helplessly.

"Yin Yin, what now? We've been walking for so long, why is there still no end in sight? Sister Wang Na asked worriedly.

"If the end is really the center of the earth, it's a real headache." Yun Ximing said.

"Why do you say that?" Yun Xian asked.

"Although human beings live on the earth, but the understanding of our earth is still poor, the center of the earth is still a mystery, only scientists speculate that its main elements are iron and nickel, and the more you go to the center of the earth, the higher the temperature will be, it is estimated that the temperature of the center of the earth is 6,000 degrees." Yun Ximing said.

"Six thousand degrees, my God, even iron smelting doesn't have such a high temperature." Dazhe was so frightened that he began to retreat.

"Don't worry, fatty, even if it leads to the center of the earth, in that case, we will have to walk for a long time, do you think you will reach the center of the earth with these few steps you have taken now? Do you think you live on an egg? Yun Xian said.

"Whether it leads to the center of the earth, let's not talk about it for the time being, even if it is to the center of the earth, Zuo Ci will not choose such a tomb for himself. I don't think it's a bottomless pit. I said.

"And what do you think of the situation?" Yun Ximing asked.

"I can't say it well, I always feel that there is something wrong, it seems that we have overlooked something." I say.

"Do you think," Arrow whispered, "that this corridor is getting darker?" (To be continued.) )
