227. a steering wheel

In the middle of the burial chamber, there is a stone base, and on this stone base is a round bronze object resembling a steering wheel.

The inside of this bronze is in the shape of a five-star object, which looks very special.

At that time, I thought that this thing was the only cultural relic in the Qushang Underground Palace, and it was the only one of a kind in the scorpion poop.

Later, I learned that the same "steering wheel" was also unearthed in the Sanxingdui sacrificial pit, and a total of six pieces were unearthed before and after, and the shape, structure, and size of these bronzes are similar, and there is little difference from the Qushang Underground Palace.

The scientific name of this cultural relic is the sun wheel, and now the most mainstream statement is a symbol of sun worship, friends who have been to the Sanxingdui Museum must have seen it, and I will not repeat the meaning behind it.

Having said that, when I was in the tomb of the underground palace, I looked at this bronze "steering wheel" and thought that it must be some kind of switch for the hidden passage.

I said, "Look at this bronze, does it look like the steering wheel of a car?" ”

The tiger baby "tsk", walked over and looked at it twice, nodded and said, "It's really like!" Isn't this just a steering wheel? How? Could it be that the ancestors of more than 4,000 years ago would have driven a car? ”

Lao Wei cried and laughed and said: "Don't be funny, there were no steam engines and internal combustion engines in those days, how could you drive a car?" This is just a bit similar to a steering wheel in shape, and the actual effect is definitely different from that of a steering wheel. ”

Tiger Baby is a frizzy character, often do things without brains, he heard me say that this bronze is like a steering wheel, so he simply grabbed the disc and twisted it to the side.

Hearing only a "squeak", the tomb wall in front of the tomb suddenly changed, and the bricks that were originally attached to the wall like wall bricks actually moved, changing the original order!

Looks like I'm right! This is indeed a trap!

But the sudden action of the tiger baby scared the others out of a cold sweat!

Especially Lao Wei, he glared and shouted, "What are you doing Tiger Baby?!" Have you forgotten how the old woman locked us up in the tomb? You know what kind of mechanism this is, so you can fiddle around, and what if you lock everyone up in the tomb again? ”

Hu Wazi himself also realized that he had done something wrong, laughed, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I was impulsive, but it seems that this organ is nothing, it is not a closed agency." ”

Lao Wei said fearfully: "You can definitely consider the consequences when you do things in the future, don't be so reckless, the underground palace is full of organs, you will have an accident sooner or later!" ”

The tiger baby was a little impatient by what he said, and nodded: "I know, I know, don't take it as an example!" ”

However, although Tiger Baby's behavior was too reckless, it gave us a test of the operation mode of this organ.

By twisting this "steering wheel", the order of the patterns on the tomb wall can be changed, and the change in the order of the tomb wall patterns is likely to open a dark passage.

Xiao Liang also thought so, she pointed to the patterns on the tomb wall and said, "You see, the patterns on this tomb wall are actually out of order, I guess if you restore these patterns, you should be able to find a secret passage to the crystal palace." ”

The tiger baby looked up, and immediately pinched his head with a headache and said, "Good guy, how can this be restored?" I just twisted the steering wheel, and the pattern on the tomb wall became even more messy. ”

Xiao Liang smiled and said, "I'll come, you don't need to restore it." ”

She knew that the tiger baby belonged to the kind of people with simple minds and well-developed limbs, and letting him use his brain was worse than killing him.

If you want to talk about this kind of intelligence question, you still have to rely on Xiaoliang.

At this time, the silver krait snake came over and said, "Xiao Liang, I studied with you, I have seen a similar mechanism in an ancient tomb in Shanxi before. ”

The silver krait is worthy of being a well-known pot person on the road, and she can mix up this fame at a young age, not just by relying on a miraculous collarbone.

When Xiao Liang heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Sister Snake." ”

The krait smiled and said, "We are now people in the same boat, I help you to help myself, you're welcome, come on." ”

After saying that, Xiao Liang and the silver krait began to operate with the steering wheel, and the two of them tried it briefly, and immediately discovered the law of this mechanism-

Twisting the steering wheel clockwise will change the direction of the three patterned stone tiles on the tomb wall, and twisting the steering wheel counterclockwise will change the direction of the five patterned stone bricks on the tomb wall.

There are a total of six stone bricks on the tomb wall, which means that during the process of turning the steering wheel, two stone bricks will rotate repeatedly, regardless of whether the steering wheel is moved clockwise or counterclockwise.

This stumped me, and I stared at the tomb wall for a long time, unable to figure out how to solve the problem.

At the critical moment, Xiao Liang was still in a good mind, she twisted the steering wheel twice, and immediately smiled and said, "I know." ”

The silver krait was startled and asked blankly, "?" Girl, you know this? I've done this question once before, and I can't even say I know it. ”

Xiao Liang didn't say much, but spoke with actions, holding the steering wheel and first turning counterclockwise, then clockwise, and then counterclockwise.

And then a miracle happened!

The six stone bricks on the tomb wall are all facing the same direction, and this puzzle has really been solved!

"That's it!" Xiao Liang said with a relaxed expression, as if he had completed a trivial task.

The silver krait looked stupid, and said half-jokingly: "Sister, your brain is too good, if you weren't from the public family, I would want to hire you as my leg." ”

Lao Wei hurriedly said: "Sister of the silver krait, don't talk nonsense, Xiao Liang graduated from the police academy and has a good roots, how can he be a tomb robber with you!" ”

The krait smiled and said, "I'm just joking, why are you serious!" ”

As the mechanism cracked, a piece of the floor next to the tomb suddenly bounced up.

Just listening to the sound of "cluck", we followed the sound, and saw that where the floor bounced up, there was indeed a dark passage below!

"Found it! I found it in the secret passage of the Crystal Palace! The tiger baby shouted excitedly, and was about to dive into it after speaking.

Lao Wei hurriedly stopped: "Wait, before going down to the tomb, test the air composition inside, and be careful of suffocation!" ”

After speaking, I took the air composition detector in and went around, and waited until the instrument turned on the green light, so that we could go down one after another.

This secret passage winds down, and for some unknown reason, it is pitch black, even if you hold several flashlights to illuminate it, it seems that it can't be illuminated.

The krait asked wonderingly, "What's going on?" Is everyone's flashlight dead? ”

Xiao Liang glanced at it, shook his head and said, "No, my flashlight is quite bright, but I don't know why, it just can't illuminate this secret passage......"
