Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Wide and Narrow Corridor
I was completely confused in front of this passage, and I could only rely on the master and the second uncle to figure out a way, and at this time, the second uncle also seemed to have no tricks, and said: "If only I could know which one to take, I wouldn't have gone wrong in that secret passage before, and it took me a long time to get here!" ”
The young master looked at the passages, and there was no way to do it, and said: "I don't know what the law of the tomb in the Western Regions is, and I don't know either!" ”
Abu was a little shocked and asked, "Even you don't know how to go, master, so what can we do, do we have to go all over, then we can't exhaust people to death!" ”
When the old lady heard this, we had no choice but to say, "If you think of other ways, there is always some way!" ”
We stood quietly in front of these passages and meditated for a long time, but we never came up with any good solutions, and suddenly I remembered that the second uncle said that those fictitious roads have an end, so I asked the second uncle: "Second uncle, how far are the wrong roads you took before?" ”
The second uncle thought for a while and replied: "It's not very far, it's just a hundred and ten meters, but there are too many obstacles inside, it's difficult to walk in, and it's difficult to get out!" After the second uncle finished speaking, he asked, "What, does it matter?" ”
I smiled and said, "Maybe there is a way now, since those metaphysics are not used here, why don't we use scientific methods to judge that Yongdao is the correct channel?" ”
"Oh?" The old lady questioned for a while, and then asked, "Young man, you should talk about it and see if it makes sense!" ”
"The laws of nature, we can judge by the echoes!" I said. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Abu heard that I had a way, and he was also excited: "Then you should say it quickly, is it interesting to always procrastinate?" ”
I cleared my mind before I said: "This echo, is to judge by sound waves, echoes will only come back after encountering a huge reflective surface, just now the second uncle also said, those fictitious Yongdao ends are always closed, there is no road, then the end of these Yongdao is a huge obstacle, either a wall or a huge rock. ”
"And then?" The second uncle asked.
"The condition for the sound to be generated is that our sound emission point needs to be at least seventeen meters away from the reflective surface, so the second uncle also said that the virtual corridor in this is only one hundred and ten meters at most, we might as well shout at the lack of a corridor, the echo of the hole is minimal or there is no echo, then that corridor must be the right path to the main tomb!" And the loudest echo just means that the reflective surface inside is very large, so the more obstructions, so you can't go. With that, I walked over to one of the Yongdao crossings.
"It seems to make some sense, then give it a try!" The second uncle's expression was obviously much more relaxed when he heard this, but there are almost a dozen passages in front of him, that is, we have to try each of the Yongdao, and we belong to Abu here with the loudest voice, and I shouted a few times at the Yongdao at first, the effect is not very obvious, and after Abu came up, the echo in it became much louder.
We began to try a few holes are echoes are unusually large, in our face of the middle of the palace of the hole after a few screams, only to find that although there is an echo in it, but the sound is obviously much smaller, more like the sound reflected by the walls on both sides, and as for those echoes of the loud corridor, I directly excluded it, in addition to some obstacles, maybe there are other mechanisms, or what insects and the like, but after we determined this passage, we are not in a hurry to walk in.
The master also had to be cautious first, opened the halberd to be six feet long, picked up a relatively large stone from the ground, and threw it into the corridor, and then only heard the sound of the stone rolling in the corridor, I didn't know what the use of this was, and asked: "What can this stone be used for, or listen to the echo?" ”
The young master didn't speak, but the second uncle explained: "We don't dare to rule out that there is no Qimen Dunjia in this Yongdao, although the Western Regions is not very proficient in these things, but after all, you have also seen it in the Kunlun Mountains, and the contact between the Han Dynasty and the Western Regions is also very frequent, it is not excluded that they invited someone to design a mechanism, and when the time comes, there will be some arrows and crossbows to kill you there, then it will be sad!" ”
After the second uncle finished speaking, I suddenly realized, this corridor is finally leading to the main tomb, although from the structural pattern at the bottom of the sarcophagus, although there are still some small tombs in the middle, but there is no huge hall to attract people, so such a huge tomb, how to say that there is a mechanism in the middle, after I know this, I picked up a few stones, and threw them into the corridor, except for some small sounds, there is no other situation, I asked: "Can I go now?" ”
The master nodded and said, "It's okay!" ”
Abu was bold enough to lead the way in front, we followed closely behind, every step under this foot became extremely careful, it was simply rubbing the ground to move in, after entering this passage, I found that the road was getting narrower and narrower, I thought to myself could it be a mistake, and looked ahead, and found that the passage was a while wide, a while narrow, I was puzzled and said: "This person who designed the Yongdao is sick, this moment is narrow and sometimes wide, what is it?" ”
The young master suddenly stopped and said, "No, go back!" "Saying that I had brought Abra back, I thought to myself, what's the matter? He asked again, "What's wrong?" Isn't there no mechanism? ”
But we had to listen to the master, hurriedly retreated, eyes staring at the width of the road in front of me, this is what I noticed, those narrower places have many small holes on the top, densely connected into a string, and these holes do not look like some natural formation or artificial chise, but like some animal dug out.
Just when we kept going back, I saw a red, yellow, red and yellow ant crawling out of a small hole, I didn't think so at first, until I saw a few more crawling out of the back, fortunately they are relatively small, otherwise my little heart can't stand it.
When Abu saw the ants, he swore and said, "Don't run, aren't there just a few ants, I'll trample them to death with one foot, keep walking!" There I am! ”
But as soon as Abu's words fell, I saw that the ants crawled back not far away, and they didn't crawl towards us, but returned to the small hole, I don't know what they were doing there, these ants are actually quite big, but compared to the monsters we saw before, more than mention, the largest is about half a centimeter.
But after the ants climbed to the small hole, they fell directly from the wall to the ground, and I saw that the yellow thing suddenly flowed out of the small hole, and I was so frightened that my upper teeth beat my lower teeth, and Abu was so frightened that "Mom! "Scream, all those yellow things are the kind of ants that just appeared!
