Chapter 65: Surprise

To be honest, the word "look" that I'm most afraid of hearing these days is the word "look", these two words seem to have a demonic nature, and every time I hear it, something incredible or bad happens.

Although I felt that I was much bolder along the way, and I was a little numb after seeing more strange things, I still couldn't help but feel a pang in my heart when I heard Lisa shout like this, and my scalp was numb. At that moment, he subconsciously covered his chest with his hands and looked sharply in the direction that Lisa was pointing.

Just now we focused on the crack on the top of our heads, and the tomb owner wearing the golden jade robe on the stone table, plus the fog was still a little heavy just now, we didn't find that there was another scene on the original stone wall.

I saw that the stone wall was inlaid with a dragon head stone carving full of fangs, at first glance I thought it was a big tree root, and I saw that this was a dragon head when I looked closely. This dragon head stone carved deer antler bull head, donkey beak carp whiskers, depicted very realistically, if it were not for the flashlight shining on the halo reflected by the stone, I would really think it is a living creature.

Even though it was a dead thing, this dragon head stone carving was also quite intimidating, and I felt a chill on my back just by looking at the dragon's half-open mouth and revealing a mouthful of fangs, as well as the two copper bell-like bull's eyes emitting a murderous aura, as if there was a real dragon on my back looking at us with bared teeth.

I lowered my eyes, not daring to look at the dragon's eye again. This inadvertent sweep made me even more surprised to find that there was a rod scale the thickness of an arm under the dragon's mouth.

I don't know what this scale is made of, and the whole body is extremely black, and it looks like something like fine iron. The rod scale is hung in the rope button of the rod scale with a thin iron chain, and the scale hammer is very large, round like a volleyball.

However, the hook on the scale hook is an iron bucket, which is not like an iron bucket, because the iron bucket is not as big and small as it is today, but it is the opposite of a large bottom and a small mouth. It looks like a bottle, which is very strange.

Looking further down, we can see that there is also a thin iron chain attached to the end of the rod scale at the bottom of the iron bucket, and another thin iron chain is attached to the side of the crack on the top of our heads. I looked all the way and saw that there was a round iron plate hanging from the side of the cracked opening.

How could there be such a strange device here? It's really puzzling. Just as it was strange, Brother Pony concentrated the flashlight into the dragon's mouth and said, "Look. ”

We looked over and saw nothing special. Just as he was about to ask Brother Pony what he was looking at, he said, "Attention, it's coming." We immediately held our breath and squinted to take a closer look.

At this time, I saw that the dragon's mouth actually spit out a mouthful of liquid. I was confused in my heart, and secretly wondered if this stone dragon was really a living thing? Actually spit out ambergris from your mouth? The liquid spit out of the dragon's mouth fell impartially into the iron kettle hanging under the scale hook.

What's going on? Immediately, I felt like it was in the clouds. "I see." At this time, Brother Xiao Ma suddenly said.

We all looked at him, and Brother Pony said unhurriedly: "Actually, it's very simple. Then he gave his analysis. As soon as I heard this, I suddenly felt enlightened, and I felt extremely surprised, and I felt that the wisdom of the ancients was really outstanding, and I immediately admired the five-body throw.

It turns out that these strange devices are not strange at all, but very sophisticated and intentionally installed here. Whether it's the openings in the top of our heads, or the iron plates on the sides of the openings, all of these things are designed with extreme precision.

First of all, the dragon's mouth will spit out some liquid from the mouth every once in a while, and the liquid will be spit into the iron bottle on the scale hook to a certain weight, and the tail of the rod scale will be upturned, and the tail will pull the thin iron chain tied to it, so that the iron plate on the side of the cracked mouth will fall or close.

The small bottom of the iron cylinder on the scale hook is also designed through precise calculations. Because the days are long and the nights are short, and the time for each mouthful of liquid in the dragon's mouth is fixed, it has to be designed with a small mouth and a large bottom.

In other words, ambergris spits out the arc space at the bottom of the iron bottle, which means that it is dark. At this time, the weight of the iron cylinder is also enough, just enough to lift the tail of the rod scale. With a of the tail, the iron chain attached to it was raised, causing the iron plate that had been blocked under the crack to fall. This is also the "click" sound we just heard.

As soon as the iron plate fell, the crack was revealed, and the moonlight shone down in perfect condition. It's not over yet, and the ambergris will still keep spitting out of the dragon's mouth. When the ambergris fills up the space between the small mouths of the iron kettle, it means that the day has come.

At this time, the iron cylinder has reached the weight of the second layer of mechanism, and it will sink down slightly, so that the iron chain at the bottom of the iron cylinder will work.

Because this iron chain is also connected to the tail of the rod scale, when the iron cylinder sinks, the rod scale will be lifted to drive the iron chain to pull, and the bottom of the iron cylinder is active. That is, because the bottom of the bottle is moving, it is pulled in such a way that the bottom of the iron bottle opens a hole, so that the liquid in the iron bottle pours down and flows into the furrow where the flame burns.

As a result, the liquid in the iron cylinder was gone, and the weight was lighter, and the rod scale was pressed down by the gravity of the weighing hammer, and the two iron chains were driven. One re-sewed the opening of the iron kettle and continued to load the ambergris, while the other re-pulled the iron plate of the opening and plugged the opening.

And so it goes, and so on. To put it simply, these delicate devices are designed for the opening and closing of the iron plates on them.

The device here is clear, but then there are more problems.

The first thing that strikes me strange is the burning fire here.

The oil lamps that came into the tomb were lit the few times I entered, and I thought they lit them, so I didn't pay much attention to it.

I was surprised when I entered this hall this time and saw the raging fire, it was impossible for Gao Sishou and Xiao Ma to light so many flames in such a short period of time. That is to say, this flame has been burning all the time, but this tomb has been around for thousands of years, what fuel can support that long burning?

After asking, I learned that the flame burning in this hall was based on the principle of the ever-bright lamp.

Gao Sishou said that the flame here was originally extinguished, and as soon as the tomb door was opened, air was poured into the tomb, and the wick of the ever-bright lamp contained some chemicals such as white phosphorus that are easy to spontaneously ignite when exposed to oxygen, so it burned spontaneously.

Then the problem comes, according to Xiao Ma's analysis, the opening will open at night, and the air will follow. The flame that burns here is not burning at all because we opened the tomb door, but it burns all along.

Then my previous question still hasn't been solved, what kind of liquid can support combustion for so long? That's not what I want to know the most, but what I want to know most is, what if there is water flowing down on a rainy day or something? Won't that flood the place?

When I looked underfoot, there were no water stains, and the burial chamber was still very dry. So what's going on? As soon as I said this question, Brother Xiao Ma chuckled and said: "That won't be, this immortal country lord, no matter how perverse, no matter how perverse he is, no matter how he doesn't play cards according to common sense, he can't violate the Tibetan scriptures." ”

"What do you mean?" I asked. This is all obvious, does Brother Pony have any other words to make things round?

"What the tomb is about is a Tibetan wind gathering qi, no matter what, it is impossible to let the air in, otherwise, we can't see it now, this immortal lord is so well preserved." Brother Xiao Ma looked at the Lord of the Immortal Kingdom.

I pointed to the round opening on it and said, "How do you explain that?" The crazy big also helped: "Yes, yes, how can this be explained?" ”

Brother Xiao Ma smiled slightly, "This tomb, in the final analysis, is still closed. After speaking, he pointed to the moonlight shining down and said: "You see, the moonlight is scattered, there is no concentrating, although it is from a mouth, it should also be lit and scattered, but the moonlight that shines down is concentrating." ”

When I looked at it, it was. This moonlight shone impartially on the body of the Immortal Lord, and it seemed to be a little contractive. Then I couldn't understand, "Why?" I asked again.

Brother Xiao Ma shone the flashlight into the mouth, "The problem appears on the opening above." Look closely, see if you can, see what, what's special. ”

Several of us focused the light of the flashlight on the opening and looked at it carefully. When I look at it this way, I really notice a little different.

The moonlight should have been pale white on the opening, but there was a brilliant halo between the openings, like a rainbow, and there seemed to be a thin and concave film between the openings, just like the current spectacle lenses.

This discovery made me even more incredible, "What's that?" I pointed to the opening and asked, "Spectacle lenses?" How can it be! "Could it be that the Song Dynasty had glasses?

Brother Xiao Ma didn't speak, but Gao Sishou opened his mouth, "So that's the case" It seems that Gao Sishou already knows.

I couldn't wait for him to finish his sentence before I couldn't help but interrupt and ask, "What?" ”

"Actually, it's very simple, it's almost the same as the spectacle lens, and the thing between the openings is either extremely transparent jade, or something like amber is embedded in the middle of the opening, so it is impossible for a liquid like rain to flow down." Gao Sishou nodded and said, "Then, the tomb still maintains an absolute closure. ”

When everyone heard this, they all nodded and suddenly realized, so it makes sense. I already think that Brother Xiao Ma can fix the corpse, and now I see that his understanding of the mechanism is also eloquent, it can be said that he knows it well, I'm afraid he didn't go to the grave.

For a moment we were all silent, each thinking about what was on our minds. I suddenly sensed that something was wrong, and I almost blurted out, "Why?" Why did the Immortal Kingdom mainly engage in such an organization? Did he think that staying in the tomb for a long time would be dull, and he could open his mouth to enjoy the stars and moon at night? ”

If my thoughts are true, then this Immortal Country Lord is really good Yaxing, but this is too, right?

ps: If there are people chasing books, I'm really sorry, there was a power outage for a day yesterday, and the call didn't come until noon today. I wanted to write two chapters to make up for it, but I didn't expect it to stop again in the afternoon, and I didn't call until the evening. And I'm a handicap, so I can only change the chapter. If you owe it first, you'll make it up. Sorry again
