Chapter 16 Inertial Puzzle Solving

At this time, Li Lvyan's backpack was filled with bullets from the Mauser pistol and the detachable small rocket launcher machine gun. The weight was greatly reduced. Seeing that Wo Gua was still carrying a lot of things bulging on his back, he evened out some of the things he carried on his back, but After hesitating for a while, "We are on the run now. There are some unnecessary things, so just throw them away."

Wogua immediately wanted to throw away the rope, but Li Lvyan quickly stopped him, "The rope may be of great use later, but if it is lost now, what should I do when I need to use it later?"

But Li Lvyan removed the dry batteries from several Wolf Eye flashlights, filled them with new batteries, and threw away some long knives and rice-making tools that looked like fine iron.

Wogua tried to carry the much lighter backpack, and immediately shook the flesh on his butt, and was pleasantly surprised, "It's indeed half lighter!"

Li Luyi moved some more and put them in his backpack. After weighing the two, the current load was about 8 kilograms per person, and it was hard to say whether it was heavy or not.

Now that the firepower is sufficient, as long as he uses his gun to sweep away, most of the rotting corpses in front of him will fall down. Wo Gua's confidence has greatly increased, but Li Luyi is still frowning.

"Although our firepower is fierce, it is not a good strategy after all. Even if you break through the siege, where do you want to attack? And where do you want to attack? And how do you know that the place after the assault is safe, and what you encounter Will the danger be greater and more difficult than the current danger? You and I still have room to breathe now. If we encounter that kind of danger that leaves no room for you and me, no matter how powerful the firepower is, it will probably be useless, just like in the previous encounter. The green-haired zombie who arrived, if he hadn’t been wearing black glasses, even if he ran out of bullets, he wouldn’t be able to kill him.”

These words made sense. Li Lvyan raised his head and looked around hesitantly: The movement just now was loud enough. Wo Gua said that the black glasses left early and he did not catch up. Now it seems that the black glasses It completely disappeared without a trace. Even if he really went to explore the terrain in advance, the sound of the explosives could let him know that something was wrong between him and Wo Gua. Why didn't he show up in that situation? Woolen cloth?

Did he run into some trouble and couldn't get out of it, or—

Li Lvyan's heart sank: Or should I say that he and Wo Gua were forced into Liu Jing's tomb by him, and our lives and lives have nothing to do with him?

He really didn't want to think like this, but the fact was right in front of him, and he couldn't help but think like this. He and Wo Gua were now at stake in life and death. He had heard the news a long time ago, but he still didn't show up. What was his ulterior motive?

Wo Gua was so heartless that he naturally didn't expect this. He suddenly heard a "Gurgling" sound. Li Green Ant looked at Wo Gua in surprise. Wo Gua scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I'm hungry."

It had been at least twelve hours since the last meal. The two of them had drank nothing except water. How could they not be hungry? And now there is only a little water left.

Wo Gua said bitterly, "Those black glasses are really annoying. The two of us were running around with weapons and equipment on our backs. It was us who suffered. He was cool and cool. He controlled the backpack containing water and food by himself. Let’s forget it if we starve to death.”

The black glasses move is a very clever move. Li Lvyan and Wo Gua control the food backpack here. If the person accidentally dies somewhere or runs away, the remaining two people have no choice but to wait for death. The road, and if the food backpack is in the hands of Black Glasses, Wogua and himself will be coerced to participate in the operation. If they are really determined to leave, the food is also in the hands of Black Glasses, and they can't run very far even if they want to. Gotta go back.

But now, the most important food is missing——

Li Lvyan watched Wogua rummaging around in the bag angrily, as if trying to dig out a crumb to satisfy his hunger. He chuckled, but suddenly his eyes focused on something, and he was shocked. "What's this?"

"what? What?"

Wo Gua held it in his hand and paused, suddenly feeling his restless youth that had no place to rest, his limbs stiff, but Li Green Ant had already snatched it away like his eyes were shining.

The mountaineering hook, also known as the Flying Tiger Claw, has a joint that can be loosened or tightened, and a long rope attached to the back, which can be used to grab things from a long distance. It is a very powerful hidden weapon. The claws are generally made of steel. In ancient times, they were made of pure iron. They resemble a curled palm. There are usually five steel claws, but there are also four or three. They can be opened or retracted. The end of the front section is sharp, like a chicken claw.

This kind of flying tiger claw is now usually specially equipped by mountaineers. In the novel, the flying tiger claw becomes a mechanism in the palm, which can control each claw. The mechanism is connected to the rear rope, and the flying claw is used to hit people. As long as the long rope is One pump. The steel claw suddenly locks in, and the tip of the claw can sink deeply into the flesh, making it difficult for the enemy to escape.

Now being filmed over and over again by countless film and television production companies, in the novels of Gu Long and Jin Yong, this flying tiger claw is a must-have magic weapon for many criminal thieves.

This thing is not that popular abroad. After all, our ancestors were the first to come up with it, but it was first popular in popular novels and was later used in rock climbing activities. Most private blacksmiths and craftsmen can also make it. , people who don’t understand this aspect really don’t know the use of this thing when they see it.

Wo Gua obviously knew something about it. He pointed at the Flying Tiger Claw and said, "Isn't this the standard equipment for those mountaineers who walked into Everest? I kept it in my bag and was so nervous that I even carried two of them. If it hadn't been for this thing It’s not heavy, and the backpack is really thick. I saw that it was of no use and I threw it away a long time ago. We are going to the tomb and not down the mountain, so we don’t need this thing.”

Li Luyi was sure, "Don't underestimate this flying tiger claw. In the Qing Dynasty, Shanxi robber Rongkang was famous for this and was known as the 'King of Flying Claws'. Later, he passed this skill to Mao from the Tianjin Escort Bureau. After it was completed, there was no escort flag when escorting, and only a flying claw was hung on the escort cart. As soon as the group of thieves saw this thing, they retreated on their own. Since the Republic of China, although the flying claws used in martial arts no longer have mechanisms, as long as there is this thing, No matter how high the wall is, you can climb over it silently."

"The Republic of China was under the military command. Chen Gongshu and Wang Tianmu, two of the Four King Kongs who were personally conferred by Dai Li, under the on-site command of Zheng Jiemin, killed the traitor Zhang Jingyao at the Liuguo Hotel in Peking in May 1933. Zhang Jingyao was a remnant of the Beiyang warlords. Before that, he was colluding with the Japanese invaders to launch a riot in Peiping, but he died silently in the Peking Hotel. The Peking Hotel has always been a concentration camp where the Japanese invaders hid traitors. It is said that the prison is so deep that even robbers are afraid of it. There is a main entrance and a back entrance, and several platoons of Japanese invaders take turns standing guard day and night. Not even a fly can fly in. However, Chen Gongshu and Wang Tianmu installed a Jiangshan man who was deeply trusted by Dai Li. It is said that this man can make a flying tiger. With his claws and accurate marksmanship, no one in the army can match him."

"This action was so unpredictable that the Japanese invaders didn't even hear a single gunshot. The next day, Zhang Jingyao's body was found lying in the room. He died in a cruel manner. The Wang Puppet Government was furious about this and gathered dozens of people. No. Domestic and foreign crime-solving experts conducted extensive investigations, but in the end they only found traces of friction on the highest wall, which was inaccessible and therefore slightly neglected. They immediately launched an investigation, but they did not catch the person."

Wo Gua was shocked when he heard this and looked at the flying tiger claw: "Is this thing so powerful?"

"In other people's hands, this is as easy as eating chopsticks. In our hands, it's like walking on stilts. It's the first time for the eldest girl to get on the sedan chair. But since you have this in your bag now, now we Most of the dilemma can be solved."

Li Green Ant stood up energetically and looked around the surrounding terrain. He had been paying attention to the group of carrion corpses just now. After all, he had not specifically looked at the environment. Now it seems that there is something strange about this place that cannot be explained. ?

Not counting the hanging stalactites, the stalactites on the ground are caused by the water containing carbon dioxide in the limestone seeping into the gaps in the limestone and dissolving the calcium carbonate in it. When the water with the dissolved calcium carbonate drips from the roof of the cave, As water evaporates and carbon dioxide escapes, the dissolved calcium becomes solid again, which means that all stalactites on the ground are the result of subsequent solidification of calcium.

In addition to the boulder the two of them were stepping on, there was another boulder ten meters away that was exactly the same. It was wider in front and shorter in back. Although the shape was closer to a circle, its surface was extremely glorious, and it was obvious that it had Traces of artificial carving.

Moreover, these huge stones seemed to be located every tens of meters, and they were arranged very regularly and evenly. Wo Gua put his head next to Li Green Ant, tilted his head and looked at it, "Hey, I was lying on it just now. Didn’t you realize that these are exactly the same stones as the ones we are standing on, and there are so many of them?!”

Seeing that Li Luyi was silent and seemed to be thinking, Wo Gua muttered, "Bystanders know, now it seems that these stones look like they have been chipped like coffins?!"

! ! ! !

This sentence hit the point. Li Lvyan felt that something seemed to have been overlooked just now. Now that Wo Gua Wuxin said it, it was really like seeing the fog through the clouds, but he suddenly became suspicious.

He looked back at the dark place where he ran before. He saw that the huge circle where the three of them stayed at the beginning should be an endless ring. The reason why it was placed on it was probably to prevent tomb robbers from going deep. Or to cover up the fact that there is a burial pit for ten thousand people below.

In other words, the appearance is the same as the fire temple of Hercules in ancient Greece, and the hollow below is the road to hell that leads people to death.

But in this way, was it a coincidence that those craftsmen were buried and then turned into rotting corpses, or was it deliberate that Liu Jing had reserved? Is this a back-up plan to trap the corpse to death even if it is discovered by a skilled tomb robber?

"Corporal Grasshopper, have you got an idea?"

The carrion corpses are all piled up next to this huge rock. Standing on it and looking down, they are like a swarm of black ants, reaching out to grab the salivating food they found. Here, if you have a poor psychological quality, you may I lost my temper.

Even if you don't look at it deliberately, just hearing the sound is enough to make your scalp numb. Li Luyi nodded, "There is a way, but it is still a desperate struggle."

Wo Gua was delighted, "If we fall into the water and struggle, we can still get some splash out. If we don't struggle, I'm afraid we will be dead."

Li Lvyan pointed at the endless passage and the densely packed corpses and said, "You have also seen that there are stones that look very similar to the coffin stone at our feet. There is one every twenty meters or so, and they are almost the same size." Consistently, it extends all the way out. If we have the chance, we can step on these stones as pedals and keep going forward. The corpses can't come up and they can't do anything to us. But if this road is a dead end - "

It goes without saying after that: If this road is a dead end, with endless mountains at the end, then the struggle just now is really a death struggle, but this is already the best way at the moment, and Wo Gua is that kind of unwilling How can a person who is determined to go to the Yellow River sit still and wait for death? What's more, Li Lvyan's current situation simply can't afford it.

Wo Gua rolled up his sleeves, "Why are you talking so much nonsense, Corporal Grasshopper, just tell me what to do." Suddenly something occurred to him, and the fighting spirit he had just ignited was extinguished in an instant. He looked at Li Lvyan with great embarrassment, "Corporal Grasshopper, Although I call you a grasshopper, you are really not that insect. An insect can only jump a few meters at most. Besides, although I can run fast, if you ask me to do the long jump, it will be a bit difficult for me, Fat Tiger."

Seeing Wogua scratching his head and scratching his head, Li Green Ant couldn't help but chuckle, "Don't worry, before I saw the flying tiger claw, although I had this idea, I couldn't implement it, but now that I have the flying tiger claw, , the current dilemma can be easily solved."

Wogua followed Li Lvyan's line of sight and looked up, but he saw the mountains above were covered with greenery, and the stalactites hanging upside down emitted a very beautiful colorful light under the illumination of night pearls, just like a heavenly palace. If it weren't for the rotting corpses below, it would be too annoying. , is really an excellent viewing spot!

Wogua, who immediately understood what he meant, quickly wound the rope through the loop of the flying tiger's claws. As he wound it, he said "tsk tsk", "You said that this black glasses is really a meticulous person. Look, this rope is like this." The loop couldn't be more suitable. If it's bigger, it's too wide, if it's smaller, it won't fit in. Could it be that it's tailor-made according to the size of the rope?"

Li Luyi narrowed his eyes and said nothing. After a while, Wo Gua tied a tight knot around the tail end of the flying tiger claw and waved tentatively. The flying tiger claw also made a "huohuo" sound in the air. "The sound is very smooth.

"Corporal Grasshopper, I will hook whatever you want me to hook. I am a well-known expert in the field and will never let you down."

"The average annual growth rate of normal stalactites is 0.13 millimeters. The aqueous solution of fast-growing stalactites is often rich in calcium carbonate and carbon dioxide, and flows very fast. This kind of stalactites can grow 3 millimeters per year. The visual drop location is 20 meters. The rope The length is sufficient and the strength does not need to be considered. Due to the accumulation of carrion, the dangerous distance is 1.8 meters below the boulder. In addition to the extension of the arm, a gap of approximately 2.3 meters must be reserved. The height of the rock is 3.46 meters. To be accurate To get there, the foothold that requires inertia is greater than the danger zone.”

"Inertia is masked by the two main effects of landing friction and air resistance, which causes the object to fall slower and slower, and finally becomes stationary. The friction force E is equal to 1/2 times the mass of 60 kilograms times the speed times 2. Friction The force does 30J of work per second, the falling air resistance coefficient is 0.30, the windward area is 2.05m square, and F is equal to 0.30 times 2.05 times 100 times 100/21.21. The inertia is comprehensively considered with initial velocity, acceleration, and impact force—"

Li Lvyan pointed at the piece in the middle and said, "That's it!"

"Oh, open it a few times!"

Wo Gua was dizzy as he listened to Li Luyi's explanation of the Heavenly Book. He finally came to a conclusion and immediately became more energetic. He threw it skillfully at a very thick stalactite hanging down ten meters away, but he heard a "scandium" sound. , the flying tiger claw fell to the ground, but did not hook up, and then tried many times, either the angle was wrong, or there was something wrong with the length reserved for the nest.

Li Green Ant dug out a piece of white candle in his bag and began to calculate the formula on the rock: How could it be wrong? How could there be a problem with the rope length?

Wo Gua only glanced back, but he didn't pay attention for five seconds, and there were a lot of writings densely written on the rock. It was like he lowered his head to pick up a pencil in math class when he was a child. From then on, he never had anything to do with mathematics. General.

Wo Gua choked up and blushed, "This, Corporal Grasshopper, what's in this?"

Li Lvyan didn't even raise his head. "I made several mistakes. I suspected that I made a mistake in thinking, so I added Heron's formula, Helmholtz's theorem, Gauss's divergence theorem, conjugate complex root theorem, Heine-Borel's theorem, Helbrandt's theorem, Fibonacci sequence, Moebius's ring, Cantor Bernstein-Rod's theorem... do the math."

…

…

Why bother to humiliate yourself.

Wogua left a sad figure, sitting with his back to Li Lvyan: as expected, he was better suited to being eaten as dried meat.

"Yes, you should leave 36.39437 meters outside the length you hold."

? ?

Wo Gua tentatively asked, "Do you have a tape measure?"

Li Lvyan was just about to mark the rope with a white candle, but found that the two colors were the same, so he had to squeeze out a drop of blood from the wound and let it fall on that spot.

He patted Wo Gua on the shoulder and said, "It's up to you."

Wo Gua looked excited, took a step, shouted suddenly, and threw the flying tiger claw out with a "clang" sound. The flying tiger claw seemed to be surrounding a gecko swimming upstream, extremely It was nailed to the stalactite, and like a spider weaving a web, the white rope was tightly wrapped around the water drop column hanging upside down from the stalactite, and it remained firmly motionless.

Wo Gua pulled hard, and sure enough, it didn't move at all. His face looked very happy: It worked!

He looked at Li Lvyan who was also smiling strangely: What did this guy eat to grow up? Why is his brain different from that of normal people?

Li Lvyan also wanted to go up and pull it, and put the white candle back in his hand. He was suddenly startled: Strange, that Wo Gua's bag was full of tools. What was he doing with the white candle?

By the way, when I followed Professor Jiang Yunsu and first went to explore some large tombs, Professor Jiang seemed to bring white candles, but I had never actually seen him use them. Could this white candle be used for other purposes?
