Chapter 155: Falling to the Bottom of the Cave (9)
Sure enough, after another silence, Zhou Ji spoke slowly:
“... I think I know what Wang Yao did in the end. If all his conjectures are correct, then he will never come back. But if his thinking is wrong, there may be a glimmer of hope. ”
Qiao Liang opened his mouth as if to say something, but he finally closed his mouth and tried to swallow his curiosity down his throat.
Zhou Ji said intermittently:
“…… It's useless for me to say that he still keeps in touch with you, because he can't communicate with you for a long time. Maybe he didn't realize it, because he had been talking to himself, talking to people in his 'fantasy'. Of course, it doesn't matter if you talk to someone or not, because you have lost contact with him. And the lost contact between the two of you has not been restored because of Wang Yao's return, that is to say, the loss of contact between the two of you may not be due to the distance that caused the failure of the communication equipment......"
"Wait, you wait!" Qiao Liang couldn't help it, he interrupted Zhou Ji's narration loudly: "Can you say it in words that I understand?" I don't understand what you mean at all! ”
Zhou Ji was stunned, sighed and said in disappointment:
"Well, I didn't expect you to be smart, but I didn't expect you to even understand what I meant."
"I'm sorry about that! I'm too stupid to understand the way you highly intelligent businessmen communicate! Qiao Liang snorted coldly and said angrily: "But it's a pity, since you want to deal with an idiot like me, you have to use the idiotic method to explain to me one by one!" ”
"Okay, I got it."
Zhou Ji didn't say anything else, and after frowning and thinking for a while, he said:
"In order to make it easier for you to understand, the first thing I need to say to you starts with the failure of the communication equipment after Wang Yao sank to a certain distance from the cave. What I want to express is that your communication equipment may or may not be broken. ”
"Isn't that nonsense!" Qiao Liang felt that his IQ had been insulted and protested loudly.
Zhou Ji waved his hand to signal the other party not to interrupt him, and continued:
"There is no need to worry about whether the communication equipment is broken or not, I just checked the machine a little, and I can definitely say that the machine is fine. But I can't check the equipment on Wang Yao's body, if there is a real problem, it should be a problem on his side, but the strange thing is that his equipment can still transmit the sound to you if there is a problem. ”
"It's not a big deal, though. Strange errors in precision equipment are normal. However, the intact master control instrument here did not show that Wang Yao's equipment was damaged. And the probability of damage to the main equipment and auxiliary equipment worth tens of millions at the same time is almost zero, so I can roughly conclude that Wang Yao and your communication equipment are actually not broken. ”
Qiao Liang hurriedly stopped Zhou Ji's words, and complained dissatisfiedly: "Hey, hey, isn't it a contradiction for you to say this kind of thing now?" Just now I said that it might be broken, maybe it wasn't broken, and now I'm sure it's not broken? What kind of logic, and you said that the two of us didn't have broken communication equipment, so how could he not hear me? Don't tell me I made a mistake and hit the button to turn off the microphone! ”
Zhou Ji shook his head, "Of course I didn't mean that, and what I said was not contradictory. The reason why I said that the equipment is broken is because you can't communicate, it is very likely that the equipment has a fault that I can't find out, or it may be that there is a magnetic field or something in the hole under Wang Yaoxia that affects the use of the equipment, which leads to the damage of the equipment. ”
As he spoke, he paused, and his expression became serious:
“…… I really wish things were as simple as I guessed. But it cannot be denied that there is another possibility that I am extremely reluctant to admit, and that is that the equipment is really not broken. And the reason why I have this idea is because Wang Yao can still talk to you in the early stage of the cave, and he can't communicate with you when he descends to a certain depth, so ...... He flew over the height line that affected the intercom device as he returned the same way, and he should be able to re-communicate with you. ”
"You're saying this too absolutely, what if his intercom device doesn't get a temporary jam, but breaks down there? Then he won't be able to hear me even if he returns the way he came to a place where there is no interference! Qiao Liang questioned.
"It's possible. But if you think about it this way, then this scenario will become what I call the speculation of equipment damage. But this time, I'm assuming that the equipment is not broken, so naturally I can't make excuses for myself anymore. Zhou Ji said lightly.
Qiao Liang had nothing to say. He shrugged his shoulders and dismissively stated that all he said was nonsense.
Zhou Ji didn't care, and said:
"Suppose, let's suppose, that the communication device is only jammed by some force underground to block your voice, and when he returns to a certain altitude, he will resume the conversation, then he will definitely reach a height where he can communicate with you when he returns the same way. But in fact, he didn't get to talk to you again until the end of the video. So is it possible that he didn't return the same way at all? Or ......"
Zhou Ji paused, and the resolute expression on his face indicated that he seemed to have made a great determination to say the following words:
Or...... He's back, but the hole here is out of place, or closed, so isn't he isolated underground, so he can't contact you? ”
When Qiao Liang heard this, he suddenly felt a chill in his back. He had already understood the meaning of Zhou Ji's words, and he also understood what the other party wanted to express, but his imagination of horror was really limited, and he couldn't conjure up the scene at that time. Helplessly, Qiao Liang had no choice but to sort out Zhou Ji's narrative sentence by sentence in his small poor brain:
…… What did he say just now?
Oh, by the way, he said, there is a possibility that the communication equipment is not broken.
If the communication equipment is not broken, then he and Wang Yao can still talk again at some point. But this did not happen.
Therefore, it is likely that Wang Yao deviated from the way back.
Or......
Or he was locked up in a space full of forces that affected the use of communication devices.
Why can't it come out?
It's not that it's lost, it's that the hole is gone, or rather, the hole has its own mind, knowing that Wang Yao is about to fly out, in order to prevent his "prey" from escaping, the moment Wang Yao approached the ground, the strangely shaped hole was like a zipper of clothes, brushing up the ground.
