Chapter 8: The Pyramids
readx;??? I took the photo and looked at it carefully, then handed it to Gao Yanan. Gao Yanan, www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, nodded and said, "Yes, it's it." You can't go wrong. Lu Liang looked at it curiously and said, "Is it just a square shape?" What's wrong with that? How serious are they all? ”
Leng Feng looked at us and said, "Can you be sure?" This is a big deal. It would shock the world to say it. ”
I nodded wordlessly, and sighed, "You all have a look." "The picture went from hand to hand, and soon, everyone saw it. Although there are some that I can't understand, most of them can be seen.
Lu Liang shouted: "What's the matter, what's the matter?" Isn't it just a rectangle? Li Meiting drew a triangle in the air with her hand, and said angrily: "Are you stupid, you can't recognize this?" ”
Lu Liang looked at the triangle in disbelief, and said in surprise: "You say this is the altar?" ......" Lu Liang pointed to the piece of paper on the table and said, "So, the pyramid was found, just in the sea below?" ”
Qin Tai crumpled the paper vigorously and said, "Yes, there is a pyramid below." Based on the altar above, and the path we had opened, we drew this figure after careful measurement. Professor Shui, in fact, you should all know the purpose of our call here. Just a win-win ending. You won't let us down. ”
I shook my head and said, "You're probably really disappointed. When we came, the state asked us that it was good to find something, but it didn't matter if we couldn't find it, the important thing was to come back alive. Win-win, we want to, but we don't really have the intelligence to do that. Truth be told, this location was found in that castle in the Lost Forest of the Amazon. At that time we, ah, didn't you see it? It's the parchment map. That parchment map is double-layered, and inside it is this, this direction. But didn't say where it is? It's just that the state judged according to legend that this is Atlantis. But our knowledge is limited, and we don't know that there will be a pyramid here. ”
Qin Tai said disappointedly: "It turns out that you don't know either. I thought you knew something inside. ”
Gao Yanan suddenly said: "There is also an insider. ”
Qin Tai's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "What is it?" ”
Gao Yanan said softly: "There is no water in the pyramid. ”
Qin Tai suddenly collapsed to the chair and held his forehead: "Oh my God, what kind of inside story is this?" Our people know that there is no water in the pyramids. The volcanic lava is so strong that it is a miracle that water can enter it. ”
Gao Yanan said softly: "Qin Tai, you misunderstood what I meant. I mean, this pyramid...... Well, no...... The map says that the sea god flooded the land, but for his glory, he used his magic to save the buildings inside, destroying only humans and the false gods. Then he let the volcano erupt and bury it all. But for the sake of those buildings, he used his magical powers inside, so that the sea water could not enter and erode, and let his fairies guard it, so that it could be reopened when the descendants appeared to be the masters. ”
Qin Tai jumped up and said, "You mean, the sea can't get in there?" Is there air in it, or is it dry? Gao Yanan nodded and said, "That's the case." But I don't believe it. ”
Qin Tai smiled and said, "Why don't you believe it?" Along the way, are there still few strange things? I've seen all the living dinosaurs, there are real dragons, and there are myths where Nuwa is alive, and nothing else is impossible. I believe. ”
Gao Yanan's expression was relieved, and he said with a smile: "But the sea god left a portal." The only way to get in is through the portal. If you want to break in, the fairy will destroy the whole of Atlantis and will not leave it to the false gods. ”
Qin Tai said bitterly: "I'm X, isn't this asking for human life?" You see, after our measurements, the entire pyramid is 300 to 500 meters long from east to west, and of course the same is true from north to south. All we have carved out is an altar. It took a whole day before an altar was opened. I don't know how big it is here? You're going to tell us to go there and find the portal? ”
I looked at Gao Yanan and asked, "We haven't seen the content there." What does the above say? Is it to say that the portal is on top of the pyramids or on the entire island? If it's just a pyramid, we're easy to find, if it's all over the city, it's troublesome. The pyramids are buried, and the buildings below are not buried even deeper. ”
Gao Yanan looked at me and said with a smile: "Of course it's a pyramid." It doesn't say it's a city. ”
I nodded knowingly and said, "I see, this doesn't prove that it's Atlantis, maybe it's really Atlantis not here." It's just a city for them, but it's not the capital. ”
Gao Yanan said with a smile: "Maybe." I do not know. ”
Qin Tai smiled bitterly and said, "Boss, with your experience, where should we find the portal?" ”
I thought about the capital for a moment: "The pyramids of the Mayans were all five floors, and the portal was generally at the bottom level. It is because the pyramid of the Mayans has five floors above heaven and five layers below hell. So the portal is basically on the first layer. Of course, this is just a pyramid in general, and there are exceptions to everything. If there is no underground palace below, the portal is mostly on the second floor or above the altar, you can look at the altar, if not, you can only mine down. Keep in mind that the location of the portal is due north and south. Generally speaking, it is right in the middle of the first layer. Also, try to find the door, because I don't know what is inside, and I'm not sure what the fairy of the sea is? So, we can't take any chances. After all, it would be inconvenient to put on a respirator. Not to mention that there are fairies, even if there is a water snake, I can't run away. Therefore, it is much safer on land. ”
Qin Tai nodded and said, "That's it, it seems that we are going to work hard for a few more days." Sleep here tonight, it's not safe on the boat. "Of course we won't shirk, it's not as safe on the boat as it is here. With such a large aircraft carrier, I believe that there should be nothing to do in the face of the strong winds of the Jiu class. As long as it doesn't get blown to Bermuda, cutting is not a problem.
Ye Simin suddenly said: "Professor Shui, if you look at the map, this place is only two or three hundred nautical miles away from Bermuda. Is it possible, you say, Atlantis is in Bermuda? ”
I took a closer look at Bermuda, and the distance in a straight line was really only 400 kilometers, and according to Plato, the area of Atlantis might really extend to Bermuda. It's just that that place is too evil, and since there were ships and planes, there are very few items of iron that don't go missing there anymore. Some say it's the interface between Earth and another parallel space, while others say it's the gateway to the space-time tunnel. But why did they all disappear beneath the surface? Why doesn't so much water flow into it? Everything on the surface of the water will disappear, so much water will be isolated? I shook my head and said, "Don't worry about it for now, let's explore here first." ”
After three days of intense and orderly mining, the southern side of the pyramid was finally opened, and the layers of stairs were half-exposed in the sea, leading from below to the altar at the top. Looking at the images from the underwater camera, everyone was a little nervous. The altar is only a few dozen meters higher than the nearby volcanic lava, and now when you reach the base of the pyramid, you actually dig a deep well of more than 100 meters diagonally downward. Fortunately, there is a crane on the aircraft carrier, otherwise it will be moved up by manpower, and it will not be rushed to death.
Originally, it was more than 30 meters underwater, plus about 150 meters of the pyramid, and now it has penetrated nearly 200 meters to the bottom of the sea. This depth is almost the limit of the human body. All the divers came back to rest with pale faces and bloodshot eyes. Breathing heavily, the heart rate is faster, and there is a state of initial recovery from a serious illness. The physical exertion is too great, and everyone can't stay down there for long. Every time the time is spent on the journey. Whether you go down or come up, you slowly control your speed, and the speed of going down is fast, and the sudden increase in pressure will suffocate, shock, and even death. The pressure that disappears suddenly will speed up the blood flow, and the heart can not bear it and tachycardia, which can easily cause sudden death. So no diver will dive that deep when given a choice.
Qin Tai looked at me and said, "Boss, we should pay attention to controlling the speed when we go down." I suggest that you leave the weak girls around you here, and don't all go down. ”
I nodded and said, "That's what I mean, too." I pointed at Gao Yanan and said, "Captain, look at how I can no longer send Anpai." You and me, plus Leng Feng, Lu Liang, Gao Gaoping, Wang Zongjun and Ye Simin. A few of us went down, and the rest stayed on it. Gao Yanan nodded and said, "That's the best." There are too many people to take care of them. ”
The little girl Bai Ling stopped doing it first, clamoring to go down. Leng Feng said to her softly: "Your kung fu is the highest here, you have to stay on it to protect them, otherwise we won't worry." The little girl looked at Leng Feng, Leng Feng nodded solemnly at him, and Bai Ling reluctantly agreed.
Li Meiting was the second to object, her reason being that there was no doctor in us, and that he was physically strong enough. We all knew that he and Lu Liang had accepted the skills of me and Leng Feng, which strengthened their bodies, Gao Yanan hesitated for a while and said, "Professor Shui, I think let's take her with you." ”
I looked at Lu Liang, and Lu Liang nodded and said, "There should be no problem." I nodded and agreed.
Qin Tai saw that we were assigned, and asked, "Professor Shui, we have to go down a few people to find the portal, do you go down?" I nodded and said, "I'll go down with Lu Liang." You're looking for a few people to come along. ”
Qin Tai called Sonny, and we knew that he was a powerful machine master, and of course we would be happy to have him. In Britain, a young man named Chavir should also be a master of organs. Russia sent a tall woman named Ishova, who was also a master of the agency. Then with Qin Tai, the six of us changed into diving suits and entered the deep well together.
We slowly dived through the tunnel, and the dim light of the miner's lamp above our heads couldn't shine far. It's dark underneath, and the volcanic lava itself is not reflective, but it can also absorb light, and it's getting darker and darker underneath. Fortunately, it was just excavated, and there was no danger, otherwise I would never have dared to go on like this.
When I came to the bottom, I was really tired, I felt that Gao Yanan's 50 kilogram weight-bearing cross-country when he trained us was similar to here, of course, it was the feeling after running. Now I feel like it's a burden to gasp. Each inhale takes several times the usual effort to complete. It's just that I'm a demon with this kind of physique, I really don't know how those divers got used to it?
What amazes me is that here, Iskova in Russia is more comfortable than Chavel in England, what a monster. Women's physique is inherently inferior to men, but this Iskova should be an exception.
We turned on the flashlight, and it suddenly lit up underneath. Looking at the smooth stone walls, I really admired those divers. Under great pressure, how smooth is the stone wall cut, and how much endurance is required to do this? I thought I couldn't do it, even though I had a special constitution.
We slowly felt every stone on the pyramid to find the mechanism, but even though we searched everywhere, we still didn't see a portal. Isn't it on this side? Our hearts sank. The pressure of the respirator went down, and we didn't dare to delay and slowly floated up. Back on the boat, everyone was uncomfortable, and three days of hard work were in vain. The diver at the head said: "It's okay, let's go and continue to dig the second road tomorrow, it's no big deal, there are only four roads in total, and now one road has been opened, with the experience of this road, will the rest be difficult?" ”
I thought for a while and said, "Big brothers, don't you dig other roads first, please clear those steps, okay?" Qin Tai also nodded and said, "Not bad." The pyramids of the Mayans generally had portals on the side with steps, and if we didn't find them, it doesn't mean that the portals weren't on this side. Tomorrow you dig out the steps. Let's go down and look for it again. Maybe it's on the next floor. Several divers looked at each other a few times and nodded in agreement.
We also know that if these divers are mining four channels with a high load, they will definitely not be able to stand it. It's not as simple as one plus one equals two, and fatigue will increase in the form of geometric multiples. When the time comes, they will collapse, and we will be the ones who suffer. When the time comes, the state orders to break in, and we will be in great danger.
After a few divers had left, we took out a pen and paper, briefly sketched out the underneath, and gently discussed where the mechanism might be. Leng Feng said with a smile in the back: "Are you all stupid? How could a portal appear on the steps? One is on both sides of the steps. ”
We looked at each other, cold sweat running down our faces. We forgot how simple things were, if it weren't for Leng Feng's reminder, not only would we not be able to find the portal, but those divers would also be greatly affected.
I excitedly hugged Leng Feng and turned around a few times, and said with a smile: "Haha, this is really a fan of the authorities." Good baby, I'm really sorry for you. Lu Liang also smiled: "Sister-in-law is amazing, she is really wise like a torch." ”
Qin Tai waved his hand excitedly and said, "Let's all rest, let them drive ten meters on each side tomorrow, I believe that the portal must be within this range." We nodded, and we all went to rest.
While we were resting, the water was overcrowded. All kinds of scientific expedition teams secretly sneaked into the deep wells we dug out, but they tried their luck. They all want to find the portal first and get the treasure one step ahead. Although there were many people, no one dared to mess around, and although there were many depth charges, no one dared to use them. Not afraid of the United States, but afraid of not being able to get in and thus not getting the treasure. The United States and Russia have jointly issued a statement that everyone will be able to enter at that time, that all treasures will be left to chance, and that the United States and Russia will not interfere.
The next day, looking at the gravel in the image, we also knew that the scientific expedition teams from various countries had come. This litter of rocks is their fruit. Luckily, no one messed around. If they really blow up a few holes, I'm afraid you won't want to go in. The water poured into it also has a strong water pressure, if there is a dungeon inside, who would dare to enter it? It's no wonder if you don't crush you.
A few divers started according to the plan we said, mining horizontally at the bottom, which was much less labor-intensive than mining a new road. The only trouble was that they couldn't go into the cave and had to move out the stones they had mined. It took a day to dig it out. We did not dare to delay, and went down at once to look for it. If they don't go down, I don't know what will happen to them at night. What's more, if there is a portal, wouldn't it let others take the lead? No one can afford that kind of shame. So, even though it was already dark, we came down right away. In fact, at such a deep depth, it is the same whether it is day or night. It's always dark down there.
This time we tried to be as careful as possible, knowing that there were dozens of times more people coming down at night than us. What if the place where we are negligent is where the organ is, then we will not regret dying. So, we touched the stone wall inch by inch. Chavier suddenly gestured to us, and we hurried over, only to see him hold down a bulge and slowly press it in. We were overjoyed and thought we had found the portal. But after a long time, there was still no movement. Lu Liang took the knife and picked it lightly, but the stone actually rolled out We sighed, but it wasn't. Isn't that a waste of feelings.
After careful searching, the portal was still not found. We went back to the boat, thinking carefully about the stone wall we had touched, thinking about where we had missed something? I drew a picture and handed it to Leng Feng and asked him to help think about it.
While we were still pondering, the stone wall below actually shook.
