Chapter 326: Magma Shaft
"Later, we finally realized that the place was not on the physical surface of the earth, but had to be reached by a strange way...... For more up-to-date chapters, visit wèn: щшw.shuhāhā. Mr. Hara smiled bitterly.
It stands to reason that he should be extremely happy after uncovering a huge puzzle that he had pondered and meditated on.
Thinking of what Mr. Yuan said before, four words suddenly jumped out of Lin Xuan's mind - "Born to die".
"Mr. Hara, I guess that way is 'life to death', or 'death before life', right?" Lin Xuan slowly expressed his thoughts.
From the perspective of psychology, when human beings are in a near-death state, the soul is in a semi-free state, and they can reflect on their life experience most objectively, so as to draw the most thorough conclusions about themselves. At that moment, it was extreme, only between a few tens of seconds and ten minutes, but I could think through the difficulties of life.
Living to die is an attitude of resolute progress.
Death before life is a process of sacrificing one's life in pursuit of one's goals.
Both are equally worthy of admiration, but there is only one life, and once you give it, you will be reduced to dry bones in the grave.
"Born to die? That's right, just as Nietzsche said some seemingly inconsistent, logically 'confusing' and 'chaotic' words, the truth is often in those awkward words. Mr. Hara replied.
Nietzsche did say something like that, "My time is far from coming, and some people are born after death", which is a high esteem for death, and it is death that begins another journey in life.
"It's like when we come to this place, we must have done it in some extreme way to break through the taboo and break through the barrier. On the other hand, those famous explorers who traveled through the mountains and rivers of Tibet and wore out their boots and soles were in vain. Mr. Hara continued.
"The time is coming." Lin Xuan whispered.
Instead of sitting and talking, it is better to walk with the body, and only by passing through that dangerous 'hole' can we achieve a bright future.
"Yes, the time is coming, and it is already a huge step forward to be able to get here from the grotto. I don't think of the people in the grottoes who thought about how to break through the barriers of ice and mirrors, the progress of the times has led to a geometric increase in knowledge, and when you meet a smart, persistent young man like you, it seems that the time has come to unravel the puzzle - let's go. Mr. Hara responded.
"Can you still hold on?" Lin Xuan could see that Mr. Yuan was already at the end of the crossbow. If you enter the 'hole' in such a state, if you are not careful, you will fall into the lava.
"I don't have a choice, you see—" Mr. Hara pointed back.
In the distance, magma exploded upwards one after another, like a pot of boiled red rice porridge. What's even more terrifying is that the liquid level of the magma is slowly rising, and it is believed that it will soon be submerged in a foothold, leaving them with no place to stand. In this case, you can only move forward, not backward.
"I'm in front, you're in behind, come with me." Lin Xuan said, striding forward, jumping forward, and his body was flat and attached to the stone wall opposite, like an agile gecko.
This kind of "gecko swimming wall" is the predecessors of the rivers and lakes to imitate the gecko's action when hunting, the breath between the breath, so that their palms appear a kind of internal force, firmly fixed their bodies on a relatively smooth plane. At the same time, the whole body relaxes and moves upward, using the palm of the hand as the fulcrum, supporting the body of an adult of more than 50 kilograms to move forward.
The latest modern technology has also revolutionized the "Gecko Wall Swimming Function" into two freely retractable rubber suction cups, which can easily move even on the façade at a 90-degree right angle, and is more flexible than a real gecko.
Lin Xuan moved forward, feeling that the stone wall was also roasted by magma, and the fit between his palms and the stone wall was very reluctant, and he gritted his teeth several times to move with difficulty.
Here, the liquid level of the magma was no more than two meters away from the top of the 'cave' at most, and as long as Lin Xuan's body fell slightly, his feet would be submerged in the man-eating magma. Fortunately, the top of the 'hole' was not absolutely smooth, but there were many cracks and protrusions that could be exploited, making Lin Xuan solid and steady with every step forward.
The distance was about 500 meters, and at the end, the magma entered the shaft.
The shaft is also square, three meters wide, with a longitudinal distance of about ten meters.
Lin Xuan stopped against the stone wall and looked into the depths of the shaft. The magma poured thousands of miles, with a drop of at least 100 meters, and the momentum was amazing and very shocking.
The structure of the shaft is a bit like a curved pipe, carrying lava into the distance. This structure reminded Lin Xuan of a famous "delusion of marine heat sources" a long time ago, which was proposed by the American geoscientist Cuomo.
The core of the theory is to drill through the earth's crust at the mid-ocean ridge (drilling thickness is about 6 to 8 kilometers), install two independent large pipes, one used to fill high-pressure seawater, and after the seawater reacts with magma, it produces high-temperature and high-pressure steam, which is released from the other tube to maximize the development of magma heat.
"If this shaft is the kind of pipe that Cuomo mentioned...... Human ingenuity is nothing compared to the miraculous structures of nature. The kind of structure that Como thought of to extract steam turned out to have existed in nature for a long time. Lin Xuan sighed, and suddenly felt that although human beings claimed to be advanced animals on the earth, they actually didn't even understand the meaning of "advanced", and were just playing a game of "Handan toddler" towards nature.
"Continue?" Mr. Hara, who came up, only said two words.
"Go on." Lin Xuan responded.
The two of them descended down the shaft, falling faster and faster because of the consumption of the body. During this period, there was a problem that Lin Xuan couldn't even think of, once the end of the shaft was completely closed after reaching the axis of the earth, they would be killing themselves and would have no strength to climb up.
About 120 to 150 meters down, a horizontal 'hole' appeared on the side of the shaft, and the two of them were relieved, and they landed to rest, so tired that their limbs trembled, and they couldn't say a word.
The entrance of this 'hole' is an irregular oval, with a transverse diameter of about five meters, and it is formed naturally, with no traces of artificial excavation. From the analysis of the surface state of the rock, it is believed that the magma melted the stone wall a long time ago, and the incalculable high temperature "burned" a way on the stone wall.
The cooled magma has been 'blended' with the original stone wall, forming a variety of 'color' and strange vortex patterns.
It took at least two hours of rest for the two men to get back to their feet.
On their flanks, the lava continued to drain into the endless depths. The only way for them to go was to go along the mountain 'cave'.
The 'cave' of the mountain is extremely tortuous, sometimes circling left and right, sometimes up and down, which shows how hard the magma worked to break through the obstacles of the stone wall at that time.
After walking about five kilometers ahead, there was still no exit in sight, but a strange roar was heard in the ears of the two of them, which seemed to be the faint sound of a working engine being wrapped in layers of quilts.
"Right ahead!" The two looked at each other and called out in unison.
Lin Xuan involuntarily quickened his pace, and finally trotted up. He knew that the truth was ahead, and the secret was about to be revealed-42041+dsuaahhh+24892760->
