Chapter 1420: Lost inheritance
Taking advantage of people's inertial thinking, the solid stone slab where the tripod's feet were was not checked, but the hollow stone slab, which was the most difficult to unravel, was put into more effort.
The hollow stone slab underneath is where the mechanism is located, while the stone slab with no hollow sound or pressing space is the real mechanism for opening the coffin.
"Ah!" Yasuda, already suppressing his blush, roared angrily.
As he exerted all his strength, the stone slab was finally tilted up.
The soil below was exposed, and there was an iron ring around the soil.
Everyone stepped forward happily. Shiro seemed not to remember the bet just now, but kept praising: "Not bad, you have the ability."
He put one hand behind his back with a half-smile.
The person behind took out a gun from the bag and pointed it at the hole.
"This mechanism is rather complicated, let me solve it." Lin Ran recognized it as a chain formation.
They seem unrelated to each other, but in fact some of the hoops can be pressed.
This kind of mechanism is commonly seen in ancient imperial tombs, and is somewhat similar to the mortise and tenon structure.
It's just that an iron ring is used, and it's really not easy after it hasn't been bent for so long.
Lin Ran began to carefully try the hoop one by one.
Some iron rings can be connected immediately when they come into contact. The inner grooves and interfaces at the contact points are exactly the same, and they are used exactly like building blocks.
After the combination is completed, a pressing mechanism appears in front of you.
However, even if I tried to push it in, or even step on it with my foot, I couldn't activate it.
"Sample?" Shiro glared at Lin Ran, but he had already come to this step. It seemed that Lin Ran was not a guy who relied on making up the numbers, so he wanted to ask his opinion.
"Temperature." Lin Ran didn't know why at this time, but seemed to understand the words on the bronze tripod.
The text below is like drawing a firewood, and then the corresponding eye parts, just like this case.
This metal looks very strong, but actually has a very low melting point.
The real switch should be inside the metal, and the metal on it is just a filler.
"Is high temperature enough?" Yamashita immediately stood up and retorted, "I have never heard of any metal that can melt at the temperature of ordinary flames."
"That's because you are too ignorant. Have you heard of Mei? Have you heard of Na?" Lin Ran said sarcastically.
It's just that in the minds of ordinary people, there is no difference between using this metal for coating and seeking death.
Moreover, during the Warring States Period, the concept of coating should not have appeared.
So he felt that Lin Ran was talking nonsense, but at this time, Liu Mao still chose to side with Lin Ran.
"Let's give it a try." Liu Mao felt that Lin Ran's ability to see this step was far beyond his imagination, and he also wanted to know what he would see next.
Shiro also nodded: "Yamashita, now is not the time for you to show off your knowledge, please retreat quickly."
Shiro himself likes to show off, but the more he is this kind of person, the more disgusted he is with other people showing off.
Yamashita stepped aside, and Shiro and the others took out a torch, lit it and placed it next to the metal.
"This won't work. You can only use the inner flame to burn it." Lin Ran estimated that his melting point should be around 90 degrees, and it would be more appropriate to use an outer flame.
But the flame of the torch always goes upwards, and the best way to increase the temperature is to burn it directly.
I saw them taking out some flammable materials from their backpacks and throwing them on the metal buttons.
Then a torch was used to light it, and a burst of flames rose in the tomb. It looked like a bonfire party, which was a bit funny.
But no one's expression was relaxed, they were all staring at the flames.
You must know that this is a tomb chamber, and the oxygen content is not high. If the flames are kept burning, even if there is no carbon monoxide poisoning, the oxygen will be consumed and they will suffocate.
Lin Ran's idea is simple, which is to melt the filling on the outside through heating.
The button inside should be exposed.
He didn't know why, but he suddenly guessed the content of the text above, as if something was guiding him.
Lin Ran has gradually forgotten, are they in a dream or reality?
Due to the high temperature, there was a crackling sound in the fire. It was the melting metal that released heat that caused the sound of deflagration.
"Almost." Lin Ran kept staring at the flames, and the inner banquet began to turn red, which meant that the temperature inside was enough.
And the sound just now was heard, plus there was a strange smell in the air, which meant that the outer coating had melted.
Not long after, a red lock finally appeared in front of them.
It looks like the handle of a manhole cover.
"This little brother is quite awesome!" Shiro couldn't help but praise Lin Ran. He was a very conceited person, so he added later, "Fortunately, I know people well and take care of them!"
People have said similar things before.
Lin Ran was a little confused.I don’t know why I suddenly remembered this, but who is that person?
"Indeed, without little brothers, we really can't open it."
After the flames were extinguished, everyone's expressions softened slightly when they saw the pull tab of the mechanism.
But then things started to get serious again. The switch was just the beginning, and the real crisis was yet to come.
There is still a little flame heat on the pull ring, but the staff wearing fireproof gloves have already started to pull the pull ring.
With a puff, the pull ring was pulled up by him, and there was actually a rope-like object attached to it.
But judging from the fineness and sound, it must be steel wire.
After the iron ring pulled out the wire, there was also a loose sound under the stone slab next to it.
"There should be a steel bar directly connected below, and this steel wire is pulling the steel bar just now." Lin Ran said.
Shiro didn't think there was anything strange, he just nodded, thinking only about how to take the credit for himself.
But when Liu Mao heard these words, he was extremely shocked.
"What steel bars?" Liu Mao said in disbelief.
"To be precise, it shouldn't be steel, but it should be some kind of alloy." Lin Ran replied casually: "The ancestors have been able to rule this land for thousands of years, so don't underestimate their wisdom."
From the perspective of modern chemistry, it is indeed the Sunset Country that created the age of chemistry, and then it took root in their land, and finally became a technology that the whole world must learn from.
However, as early as 3000 years ago, China began to search for the art of alchemy.
The only regret is that no system was formed. In fact, the actual research started more than 1000 years earlier than they did.
Liu Mao had an expression of disbelief on his face, and he patted his cheek.
