Penrose Stairs, also known as Penrose Stairs, was proposed in 1950 by the famous British mathematician and physicist Professor Emeritus Roger Penrose.
In his introduction, Penrose Stairs is an endless corridor, a maze. There are four stairs connected at the four corners, but each staircase is upward, so it can be extended and developed infinitely. This is an impossible paradox in the three-dimensional world.
ladder.
But he never expected that as early as the Xixia period in China, the Penrose Staircase he proposed had already been familiar with and mastered by the ancients, and was even used in various secret passages. And this stairway has a name that makes tomb robbers frightened.
——Suspended Soul Ladder.
The design of the hanging soul ladder has been lost for thousands of years, but many mad mathematicians and scientists are still fascinated by it. Some people think that this hanging soul ladder adopts a kind of suggestion or hypnosis method, and some think that it is a method of suggestion or hypnosis.
A complex mathematical model.
No matter how many theories there are, the final effect of the Hanging Soul Ladder is only one, which is to make it impossible for those trapped in it to get out of the maze. They will continue to cycle. Once they enter this strange circle, they will never get out of here. In the end, they will be able to exert their strength in the circle.
Exhausted and died.
So when Liu Jinsheng heard the constant loop in Xiao Feng's mouth, he suddenly had an idea, and his mind that had been stuck in a dead end suddenly became clear.
When they heard the name from Liu Jinsheng's mouth, everyone else present was stunned for a moment. They didn't know anything about the so-called hanging soul ladder. If Liu Jinsheng hadn't said it, they wouldn't even know the name.
"Jin Zi, do you know how to crack this mechanism?" Shi Tieniu said hurriedly.
He had wanted to get out of this ghost place for a long time, but he was stuck here and couldn't get out. Now that he finally saw the hope of getting out, he immediately cheered up.
"No..." Liu Jinsheng shook his head and said: "Although I know what this mechanism is, many masters of tomb robbing have fallen on this soul-hanging ladder in ancient times, and I can't guarantee that I can get out."
"Ah..." Shi Tieniu couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, he was just kidding himself!
When the other two people heard this, they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. The cruelest thing in this world is to give people hope and then kill it with their own hands. This is exactly what Liu Jinsheng did.
I originally thought he had thought of some solution, but it turned out that there was no solution.
"Ahem!" Liu Jinsheng coughed twice in embarrassment and said, "Although I can't think of any solution now, I firmly believe that as long as I go through it two more times, I will be able to discover the mystery and successfully crack the mechanism."
"Really?" Yin Hu asked suspiciously.
"..." A black line appeared on Liu Jinsheng's forehead. Instead of being so shocking, he could at least give him some mental support!
"I think it's better to follow what Brother Sheng said. Even if we fail, the most we can do is come back here, which is better than waiting to die." Xiao Feng thought for a moment and then said to Yinhu and Yinhu.
"Hey, it doesn't matter to me! Anyway, I've been mentally prepared for it for a long time." Shi Tieniu said with a smile, then patted Liu Jinsheng on the shoulder, "The only thing is that I will hurt you, brother."
Liu Jinsheng chuckled lightly, punched his chest, and focused his eyes again, looking at the secret passage: "I don't want to die here feeding bugs, there is a great world outside, and the beautiful lady is waiting for me, how can I be willing to die?"
it's here."
After knowing what kind of mechanism he encountered, Liu Jinsheng no longer felt confused at this time, but went in through the entrance with his head in hand.
Walking in the long dark passage, only the miner's lamp in Liu Jinsheng's hand illuminated the front. As he walked, Liu Jinsheng recalled the relevant information about the Hanging Soul Ladder.
At this time, he benefited from his super memory with almost photographic memory, so he was able to remember such obscure information about the ancient tomb mechanism. In the information, the hanging soul ladder uses the environment, light, angle, and hints.
, in order to induce people to walk and circle according to the arranged route without knowing it.
"There must be something special here that I didn't notice." Liu Jinsheng looked around with his eyes.
His mind is extremely clear. Thanks to his clairvoyance, he can see at night, so the dark surroundings have no effect on him at this time.
One of the most important reasons why the Hanging Soul Ladder works is the environment. Through special settings, coupled with the ambient light and angle, it is very easy to affect people. At this time, these effects are almost ineffective for Liu Jinsheng.
, which also allowed him to dedicate himself to cracking the mechanism of the Soul Suspended Ladder.
Forty minutes later, Liu Jinsheng and others walked back to the dormitory of the ancient tomb. This time they walked very slowly under the leadership of Liu Jinsheng. Although they still walked back, this time Liu Jinsheng was not discouraged, but his eyes were bright.
He walked aside and squatted on the ground, using a bronze candlestick to draw something on the ground.
Shi Tieniu and others were also watching, but when they looked at the patterns drawn by Liu Jinsheng, they felt like they were graffiti. If they hadn't seen Liu Jinsheng look normal, they would have thought that Liu Jinsheng was crazy like Fu Haibo.
During this period, under his greeting, Shi Tieniu and others went into the secret passage twice more and came back. Fortunately, this secret passage was prepared by the craftsmen for escape, so there were no hidden arrows in it, otherwise they would have been shot.
Hedgehog.
Finally, after some detailed thinking, Liu Jinsheng stood up and came to the people who were exhausted mentally and physically.
At this time, except for Shi Tieniu, the three of them were in slightly better condition, while Yin Hu and Xiao Feng were in extremely poor condition. Yin Hu's body was just injured by the poison, and he was pulled over by Liu Jinsheng before he could take care of it, while Xiao Feng had lost so much before.
Blood, plus a few back and forth, almost all rely on the support of Shitieniu.
"Everyone, I am confident that we will be able to go out this time."
…………
Deep in the mountains opposite Baimao Village, a dilapidated Jiutian Xuannv Temple is located on a hilltop.
The old eaves, dilapidated buildings, and even the altar that was supposed to be dedicated to the Jiutian Xuannv Temple were now only a pile of broken soil blocks. Although the Xuannv Temple was dilapidated, it was still standing strong.
If Liu Jinsheng were here, he would definitely remember that this was the Taoist temple he inherited from Tianji Valley!
"Chiji...jiji..."
A sparrow flew in from outside and landed on the altar. The little sparrow jumped on the altar, pecking at the soil particles on the platform from time to time with its beak.
Just when it was thinking about whether to go somewhere else to look for food, suddenly at this time, it saw the surface of the altar shook inexplicably, and a layer of dust was raised.
"Chiji..." The little sparrow tilted its head and blinked in confusion.
At this time, there was a sudden bang, and the dust on the surface of the altar was suddenly shaken up. Disturbed, the little sparrow let out a few screams and hurriedly flapped its wings and flew outside.
At the same time, there was another huge earthquake on the altar, and suddenly...
"Bang..."
The back of the altar, which was made of earth and stone bricks, was suddenly penetrated by a huge force. A big hand stretched out from the hole, and then a vague voice came from inside.
"Hurry up, you've found the exit, hit it hard, Tieniu, I'll leave this heavy work to you."
"Hahaha... Okay, look at my Barbarian Bull Divine Fist."
Before he finished speaking, a fist as thick as a casserole was blasted out of the hole again, along with flying debris from the fist.
"Bang bang bang..."
As the banging sound continued, soon a large hole about half a meter in diameter appeared on the back of the altar, and then a figure quickly came out. This person was none other than Liu Jinsheng.
"Come, Tieniu, take the wounded out first." Liu Jinsheng greeted into the cave.
Shi Tieniu responded vaguely, and then saw the very pale Xiao Feng being sent out. Liu Jinsheng hurriedly stretched out his hands to lift him out. Followed closely was Yin Hu, although her body had already
I was very tired, but I couldn't bear the joy of finally escaping from the predicament, so I got out on my own.
"Be careful." Liu Jinsheng stepped forward in time to help her out of the cave.
"Tieniu, it's your turn."
"good!"
Before he finished speaking, he saw a backpack thrown directly from the hole. When the backpack hit the ground, it made a crisp sound of metal collision.
Hearing the sound, Liu Jinsheng couldn't help but be startled. He picked up the backpack and opened the zipper to take a look. Good guy, it's a bag full of treasures. There are bronze utensils and jade utensils in it. It's stuffed to the brim. A rough estimate is that it's at least
It costs more than tens of millions.
"Damn it! You guy dared to sweep that hole of Prince Yu Zhong!"
"Hehe..." Shi Tieniu happened to crawl out and said with a sly smile: "I don't plan to go down to that ghost place again. I have to make enough money this last time. Don't worry, I'll give you your share too."
I brought it with me."
"Hee..." Hearing this, Liu Jinsheng suddenly grinned, pointed at Shi Tieniu and cursed with a smile: "You brat, it was not in vain that I risked my life to get you back from the hell gate!"
"Hehe..." Shi Tieniu scratched the back of his head and smiled stupidly, looking like a fool.
Seeing the despicable appearance of the two people working together, Yin Hu glanced with disdain, snorted coldly and turned his head away, looking blind.
"Ahem! Brother Sheng, you are so amazing. How did you realize that the real exit passage was on the way to the Soul Suspended Staircase?" Xiao Feng leaned to the side and asked with a smile that was about to survive a disaster.
"Haha! It's a long story." Liu Jinsheng scratched the bridge of his nose and said with a smile: "Actually, I already had a guess after I knew that this mechanism was a soul-hanging ladder. The craftsmen built a secret passage for escape, but they
The secret passage is actually the almost unsolvable soul-hanging ladder, which means that the real escape route should be hidden in the soul-hanging ladder in order to avoid being discovered by the supervisor."
After hearing Liu Jinsheng's explanation, the other two people also pricked up their ears.
"After I confirmed this idea, I started to wonder where the real escape tunnel was hidden. I couldn't find it at first, until I discovered a wonderful place." Liu Jinsheng's eyes lit up.
"In the Hanging Soul Staircase, because the distance is very long, I always find that there is a section of ground that continues to go upward. Although the slope is not obvious, I can feel it, so when I take you through the slope for the second time,
At the top, I started to check whether there was a secret door on the wall, and as expected, I found the exit."
The three people listened to his explanation and couldn't help but exclaimed.
In such an environment, it is already difficult to identify the direction, but to be able to calmly find the secret door in the passage is really awesome!
