Chapter 512: A Strange Gravitational Field
For some reason, the corpse had decomposed to this extent, and many parts of the body could still slowly squirm, which was creepy to look at.
I endured fear and nausea, and Xiao Lei each took a shovel, the corpse "ended" in the distance, and dug a deep pit, threw the corpse into the pit, just about to be buried, but the old man Yuan took out a bottle of gasoline from the house, and then poured it on the corpse, and then struck a match, threw it on the corpse, suddenly, the corpse ignited a raging fire, we covered our noses, hid dozens of meters away, and waited for the burn to be almost, then came to check, at this time, the corpse has become a pile of ashes, at this time, The two of us buried the body.
We just wanted to ask something, but we didn't expect Old Man Yuan to say, "Let's go to that hillside first, and we'll talk about this matter in detail when we have time." "When he said that, we didn't want to ask in detail, and besides, we were going to that hillside, so it was a little bit of an extraneous episode.
Old man Yuan closed the door, and we continued to march towards the small hill.
When we walked to the top, we most wanted to see the flashlights, but to our surprise, the flashlights we threw away last night were long gone, not only the flashlights were gone, but even the net containing the human skin, we didn't see it.
It shouldn't have been picked up by passers-by - this is deep in the mountains, and we haven't seen a single person in our adult years, how could it be so coincidental that we left here last night and were picked up in the morning?
Where we were dripping with the liquid, we found that there was a pine tree there, and it was when we passed below that we were dripping, could it be that there was some other human skin on it, and when we passed by, they dripped that kind of juice from above?
And this pine tree, nothing special, is just a common pine tree in the mountains.
When we came down the hillside and walked in front of the crack, we couldn't help but be stunned - the stone pillars that lay at the ends of the crack were gone!
Judging from the traces of the connection, it looks like someone has broken it.
Whenever we find some clues and are ready to investigate them carefully, we are always deliberately cut off, and this time is no exception, but the more we don't want to know the secret, the more important it may be to us.
"We should find a way to go across the rift and see what's going on, a lot of secrets, maybe just across the other side," the cousin muttered to himself.
"You're right, but how can we get there? In the past, there was that stone pillar, and it was possible to pass, but now that the stone pillar is gone, it is almost impossible to pass", the female translator said with a little loss.
And the cousin smiled slightly and said: "Ha, you are wrong, that stone pillar is actually a 'trap', it seems that you can pass from there, but in fact, as soon as you go up, people will fall down and die, without that stone pillar, we are more likely to pass." ”
After listening to my cousin's words, everyone was taken aback and didn't understand the meaning of my cousin's words at all.
The cousin did not rush to explain, but picked up a stone from the ground, and then threw it to the opposite side, it is said that this crack is more than ten meters wide, if the strength is a little bigger, it is easy to throw the stone over, but the next scene we saw made us completely stunned:
The stone had just flown out four or five meters, and as if it had been sucked by something, it fell almost vertically into the valley bottom! What's going on?
My cousin looked at us dumbfounded, and then said slowly, "Have you seen that?" Why is this so? Because above the pit, the gravitational pull is extremely high, and no matter what the object is, it will be quickly sucked to the bottom. ”
Great gravitational pull? Could it be the gravitational pull of the earth? When I was a child studying physics, I heard my teacher say that the gravitational force on the earth will change slightly due to different locations, and some examples were given, for example, there was a cargo ship that transported goods from the area near the equator to the vicinity of the North Pole, and when it arrived at the destination, when it weighed the goods, it was found that the weight decreased, not because the goods were stolen, but because of the change in the earth's gravity, which caused the weight of the goods to change.
But in general, the change in the gravitational force of the earth is very small, how can the gravitational force suddenly be so different when it is so close at hand?
In response to our question, my cousin just shook his head and said, "This strong gravitational pull may not be produced by the earth, have you forgotten?" There are meteorites in this area. ”
It's really a reminder to the dreamer, yes, this area is where the meteorite lands, maybe this strong gravitational force is generated by meteorites, I remember the book also said that the gravitational force of many planets is unimaginable, only an area the size of a fingernail can weigh dozens of tons, and the gravitational pull of this planet is so large that even light can't shoot out.
Could it be that such a strange gravitational pull is also caused by meteorites?
Xiao Lei and I also picked up the stone, like my cousin, and threw it to the opposite side, and sure enough, although we used our strength to feed, the stone flew out four or five meters, and it would be strongly "sucked" to the bottom.
"You see, that powerful gravitational field, is four or five meters away from the edge of this crack, as for how wide this gravitational field is, we don't know, when there is that stone pillar, many people think, as long as you climb the stone pillar, it should be very easy to get to the opposite side, but you don't know, there is such a strong gravitational field, after people climb to four or five meters, under the strong force of gravity, they will be dragged to the ground, fall to the ground of the crack, and be thrown to death."
My cousin squinted and looked into the distance, and said leisurely, he said very calmly, but we were terrified when we heard it, no wonder my cousin said that the stone pillar was a trap, and it seemed that it was so.
"Cousin, how did you see this, and why didn't we find out? And there is a contradiction in what you said, since the gravitational pull is so strong, why did the flock of flies fly over? Sister Li asked with a confused expression.
After Sister Li said this, everyone also thought of this.
The cousin nodded and explained, "You're right, but I don't know if you've noticed?" When the flock of birds, as they flew by, when they reached a point of four or five meters, they suddenly fell down - not one, but the whole flock - very much like a flock of broken iron filings, suddenly attracted by a magnet, this detail impressed me very well.
As for why they are not "pulled" by gravity? It is because their bodies are extremely small and light, about the same size as flies, but they are birds, with wings, feathers, and muscles, so their flight strength is dozens of times, or even hundreds of times, stronger than ordinary insects.
Just now I noticed a group of dragonflies, they flew four or five meters away, so they quickly flew back, as if there was an invisible wall, and then thought of the previous group of birds, flying past, so I immediately thought of the gravitational field, only to pick up a stone, throw it in the opposite direction, I didn't expect that my guess was right. ”
Hearing what my cousin said, we suddenly realized, and once again sighed at his old man's insight, we are really beyond our reach, not only us, but even the madman Liu and Old Man Yuan, also praised again and again.
The cousin smiled humbly and continued: "Brother Yuan said that there were several people who tried to climb from that stone pillar to the opposite side, but then they all fell and died, and they were all guided by this kind of gravity, and I also discovered a secret - that is, human skin and gravitational field.
Human skin needs this gravitational field to maintain muscle strength, that is, this gravitational field is a way for human skin to exercise strength.
Because human skin has no flesh and bones, it is very light - this is similar to the weightlessness of astronauts in space, and long-term weightlessness will cause human muscles to relax and the strength is extremely attenuated, so human skin needs this gravitational field to exercise its strength.
Of course, this is just my conjecture, and it may not be correct. ”
More and more, I felt that this place was really weird, even stranger than the amphibian dens before. And countless mysteries, often traced back to the end, are related to meteorites, this meteorite that landed on the earth tens of thousands of years, or hundreds of thousands, or even longer, in this long time, how many secrets have been derived, it is really unimaginable.
"Then what do you mean when you say that without this stone pillar, it will be easier for us to get there? Why do I get more confused the more I listen? Hongmei asked with a slight frown.
At this time, the cousin did not answer immediately, but looked left and right in the direction of the crack and said, "Because this pillar attracts all people's attention—whoever thinks of going to the other side of the crack, as long as there is this pillar there, will only notice this pillar and will not think of any other path, and without this pillar people will look for other paths."
I think there must be a way to the other side, and it is the other way that there are people who build this kind of stone pillar to confuse people so that they cannot find that way. ”
There is indeed this possibility, just like magic, using a prop to draw your attention to the past, so that you will not pay attention to the real goal.
Old man Yuan shook his head again and again and said: "No, I know the surrounding terrain better, and I also tell you, at both ends of the crack, there are extremely steep peaks, and they stretch for hundreds of miles, and they can't be turned over at all, and if you want to go around, it's also very difficult, it's like a natural high wall, I'm sure that there is no road nearby that can lead to the opposite side." ”
Madman Six suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said, "What does Researcher Wang mean, does it mean that there is a cave that passes through those steep peaks and leads to the opposite side?" ”
My cousin nodded.
After hearing the words of the madman Liu, Old Man Yuan was stunned and said, "This is possible, because these peaks are twists and turns, I haven't looked carefully, whether there are caves on them or something." ”
My cousin's words made everyone feel like they were empowered, yes, the cave!
We have drilled through countless caves in the battle of wits and courage with the blind man, and in this big mountain, there are so many caves, maybe there are really the kind of caves that my cousin said!
After no further hesitation, we immediately began to search, and my cousin looked at the terrain and decided to look for it on the right side of the crack first, so the first thing we had to do was to go to the junction of the crack and the peak.
