Chapter 64: Mind Games (Text)
"Ah Meng, what your third uncle means is: It is very likely that you suddenly passed through a door, and behind the door is the pattern we are now. And this door is gone, and the way back is blocked, and by the time we realize it, it's too late! ”
Zhang Meng suddenly realized that this is similar to the space door in some science fiction novels, teleporting them here, although it sounds ridiculous at first glance, but thinking about it, it seems that this explanation is the most likely.
It seems like they came here all of a sudden, and they must have stepped on something strange before they were sent here. In this way, it will not destroy the feng shui pattern of the tomb, but also send the tomb robbers to a dead end, which is definitely a very subtle mechanism.
"So how do we get out?"
Zhang Meng was almost about to cry, how could this Liu Qu be better than Edison, anything could be done.
If it is really according to what Zhao San said, the mechanism here already involves something like space, then it seems that Hawking and they only studied it, and the ancients knew a bullshit space!
Chen Cripple, they all had a wrinkled face, and no one answered Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng squatted on the ground, racking his brains to think about how to get out.
Suddenly, a bright light surged in his head, if this was another space, there must be a portal door, as long as they found that portal, then they could get out?
"Uncle Cripple, when you used the compass just now, did you notice what shape this tomb passage is?"
"It's kind of a square. Every time he turned a corner, he didn't fold very obviously, and he had to fold four or five times in a row before he completely turned over, almost a square pattern. ”
Chen Cripple was a little puzzled, he didn't know why Zhang Meng suddenly asked this.
Zhang Meng took out the firecracker, put two steel beads in it, filled it with some gunpowder, and aimed at it for a long time, but still felt a little weak.
"Third uncle, come here! Hit the road and hit it straighter. ”
Chen's eyes lit up, he guessed what Zhang Meng wanted to do, which was also a good idea.
If their guess is correct, then there must be a 'door' here. This 'door' will teleport the bullet out, and if it does, the bullet will land straight on the stone wall, and if the location of the 'door' can be confirmed, then they should be able to get out.
"Not here."
"Not here."
"It's not ...... here, either"
"it!"
Zhang Meng sat on the ground dejectedly, these four steel balls fell completely on the stone wall, that is to say, there is no so-called 'door' here at all, so how did they send them here?
"Huh?"
Zhao San suddenly made a puzzled sound, and he stared at the floor as if he had found something.
Zhang Meng instantly became energetic, and he stared at Zhao San with Chen Cripple, hoping that he would find something.
"This floor is a little weird!"
Zhang Meng fell on the floor at this time, one by one the slab rocks were inlaid on the ground, Zhang Meng's head flashed, he seemed to have seen these things somewhere.
But at this time, I was in a hurry, but I couldn't think of life or death.
"This looks a bit like the floor when we came!" Chen Cripple said with some hesitation.
At that time, he also introduced to Zhang Meng that ancient slate tiles were extremely expensive, and being able to pave a layer of slate was definitely a symbol of status.
"It's exactly the same!"
Zhao San said categorically, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"We've guessed this tomb too highly, it's just a simple ladder principle. It's just that before we know it, we've been pulled to another level, so we notice that things here have suddenly changed! ”
"But third uncle, if it is pulled up, we will have a little reaction anyway, right? We couldn't have just reacted at all. ”
"That's where the designers of this tomb come in. First of all, he didn't pull a short distance, he directly pulled all the passages up, and the distance was at least seventy or eighty meters. In this deep and dark passage, if we have been walking on this passage of seventy or eighty meters, this whole stone slab will gradually rise up, and it is normal for us to not react. ”
The more Zhang Meng thought about it, the more he felt that it was right, they took a closer look, and indeed the large passage they were in was the kind of ground inlaid with stone slabs. In other words, unconsciously, this whole passage has been pulled to another layer.
"I see!"
Zhang Meng breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, fortunately it wasn't the messy space door and other things they had guessed before, if it was really that kind of thing, I am afraid they would have to stay in this passage for the rest of their lives.
But now it's much easier, just dig a hole in the slate.
"Why?"
Seeing that Zhang Meng was about to start with a folding shovel without saying a word, Chen Cripple was startled.
"Dig a hole and get out, aren't we pulling it up? Just dig a hole and jump down! ”
Zhang Meng scratched his head and asked with some confusion, why is this lame uncle so excited.
"Dig you big devil! Do you know if he pulls this tomb up or down? And the most important thing is that I don't think this King of Guangchuan will let you out of this tomb so lightly, I think there must be some mechanism under this stone slab, you dig like this, isn't this the rhythm of flashlight next to the dung pit and looking for death? ”
Zhang Meng scolded Chen Cripple so much that he didn't dare to reply a word.
"Then what do you say......
Zhang Meng threw down the folding shovel in his hand and said depressedly.
"I think the principle of gravity should be used here, using some strong springs or something, as soon as a person steps on it, the gravity on both sides of this tomb is different, and you can immediately lift this passage up, very old lever design. I've seen it in a Shang Dynasty mausoleum before, but it's far from being that big, and I don't really know how to design it. ”
Chen lame said with some sighs.
"Uncle Cripple, you've said so much, how are we going to go down?"
"It's simple, as long as you can find the fulcrum of that leverage. In fact, I can conclude that this passage has been moving up and down all the time, but the amplitude is so small that we can't feel it. ”
Chen Cripple seems to have suffered the loss of this design, and he is also very familiar with this principle, and he felt a fine nylon rope in the package.
"Ah Meng, you take the rope and keep walking here, wait a minute, pay attention to the horizontal line of this nylon rope, if it is tilted, run back at speed! Do you understand? ”
Zhang Meng was a little puzzled, what this Chen lame man said was the same as the book of heaven, but in fact, he didn't understand it very well, so he simply didn't ask.
He grabbed the end of the rope and walked forward for about ten minutes, but he didn't see any strange signs.
At this time, he seemed to hear the shouts of Chen Cripple, Zhang Meng looked back, and immediately dispersed.
He didn't know when this nylon rope was already tilting downward at an inverted forty-five degree angle, which means that Chen Cripple and they are sinking now!
Thinking that he might be left alone in this tomb, Zhang Meng had only one thought in his head: run!
