Chapter 70: The Vanishing Canyon
We were on the edge of the abyss, and we really couldn't understand the mystery, and it was a completely different scene from the trees than up close, and it would be impossible to do it unless there was a mechanism in operation. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
More than a dozen tree corpses above our heads were howling desperately, as if mocking us mercilessly.
"There's a problem with the light here!" The fawn suddenly burst out of nowhere, startling us all.
"What could be the problem?" I wondered.
The fawn thought for a while and said, "What we saw in the tree should not be the real scene, it is very likely caused by the refraction of light, you know the mirage, right?" ”
I shook my head, and couldn't help but sigh that people who have read books are different, I know how to play all day long, and I have never heard such an esoteric term.
He goes on to explain: "If the density of air on both sides of the interface is different, the light reflected by the object will be refracted and fully reflected, and then a virtual image will be formed, which should be what we see in the tree!" ”
I heard it in a fog, and I said in my heart that this kid shouldn't be talking nonsense again, bullying us for not having this kind of culture, and you can pretend to be a comparison with a few casual words.
"Even if what you say is true, what can we do to get out?" I asked rhetorically.
The fawn didn't answer, but pretended to turn on the flashlight in a deep way, and looked around. He's like this, you can't guess what's going on in his head, and if he doesn't want to say something, you don't want to know until you die.
After turning for a long time, he said slowly: "If what we see is an imaginary image, it means that there must be a physical object that can present this virtual image, just like everything you see in the mirror, there must be an entity in reality to match it." To use a popular analogy, if you see a stranger standing behind you in the mirror, then in reality, there must be an identical person standing behind you. ”
When he said this, I seemed to understand a little, that is, if we saw a canyon in the trees, then there must be a real canyon here, but looking around, there is no other place except this abyss.
When I asked where Fawn Canyon was, he seemed a little confused, saying that this was exactly what he was strange about.
This kid's analysis is the first thing, but if we want to be convinced, we have to come up with a piece of evidence, if we can't find that canyon, all the analysis will be on paper, not to mention that our top priority is to get out quickly and see if anything has happened to the people above.
The fawn told us to look around, and he sat down on the ground and began to meditate.
Scold! Really good, call us as people at the moment, I was suddenly unhappy, but there is no way to take him, after all, the ancient scholars of the dynasty also had this virtue.
I began to think to myself, first assuming that the canyon was indeed a virtual image, that the real canyon must be somewhere here, but that there must be no such big canyon hidden anywhere we could see at the moment, and there must be a hole somewhere.
Since we can't directly find the location of the canyon, we might as well think about it from another angle, according to what the fawn describes, there must be three elements to present the virtual image: the thing itself, the gas medium, and the light source.
The first two seem to be unworkable at the moment, and the only thing left is the light source, although I don't understand these esoteric physical principles, but I still know some basic common sense, objects can present virtual images, the necessary condition is to have light, if there is no reflection of light, everything is nonsense.
I suddenly felt that I was so powerful, so I told them these ideas, and the little deer jumped up at once, and said to me excitedly: "Little shy, it's okay, you have finally grown back your brain!" ”
I replied angrily: "Don't look down on people, you are just sharp-tongued, and you have to rely on me at a critical time!" ”
"My uncle is a mouthful, so who is my aunt!" Fawn Road.
Uncle Li was amused by this sentence, and laughed out loud, I didn't react at first, but when I understood, I also started to laugh. I don't know who this kid learned from, but the witty words came as soon as he opened his mouth.
Packing up our moods, we all looked at the corpse tree, because there were cliffs on all sides, and there was endless darkness in the abyss, and the only light was shining from the gap in the top of the tree, although the light was very dim, but it was more than enough to illuminate the entire sinkhole.
"Don't tell me the canyon is hiding in this tree!" I looked up and sighed.
The fawn's face was a little solemn, and he looked at it thoughtfully, as if he was making a difficult choice.
After a long while, he slowly spoke, "I'm afraid we'll have to climb up again." ”
"You're crazy!" I shouted, and I felt a creep at the corpses jumping between the branches and leaves, this thing wasn't a good thing, and I didn't even have a whole corpse when I was caught.
Uncle Li also echoed: "We just came down from the tree, and there are all tree corpses there, why do you bother? ”
The little deer moved his muscles and bones, and said righteously: "Little Shyness is right, there is a light source to have a virtual image, since the canyon is not here, then there must be a mystery in the tree!" Anyway, staying under this is a dead end, so it's better to go up and have a look, maybe we can find something. ”
"I'm going to you, I don't want to die in vain!" With that, I sat down on the ground and looked very determined.
What I didn't expect was that the fawn actually laughed, touched my head and said, "Ouch, hey, my little shyness is actually a little temperant!" Don't worry, I'm not trying to get close to those tree corpses, just climb a little higher to observe, after all, it's too far away to see anything in the trees! ”
After saying that, he took out a few strangely shaped iron claws, put on the rope to make a simple safety rope, tied it around his waist and began to climb up.
I have had the experience of rock climbing, this straight up and down structure is easy to go up and difficult to go up, and it is extremely physically demanding, after the previous toss, our physical and mental have been double-tested, he must not have much physical strength left now, I can't help but sweat for him.
"Be careful, don't get too close to those tree corpses!" I was anxious on the spot, and it was worrying to look at such a height, not to mention that there were so many man-eating guys up there.
The fawn's climbing process was quite slow, during which he stopped from time to time to rest, and the safety rope he made was very useful, one end was tied in the crack of the tree above his head, and the other end was hung on his waist, and the whole person was tied there without any hands, which looked very strong.
It was about forty minutes before he reached the height he had expected, and the corpses all craned their necks and stared at him with wide eyes.
I was about to take out the box cannon to help him, but Uncle Li stopped me, and he yelled at me: "You kid is crazy, is this going to kill him!" ”
