The Ultimate Live Superstar

Chapter 373 Stone jacks, underground canals!

"I gather, what is it?"

"I can't see clearly!"

"Scary!"

"Do you want to make it so scary?"

"Are there any brothers from Wanshi in the live broadcast room, please call 120 and ask if there are any beds in Donghua Hospital? I'll be there later—"

"Prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, the rule of law, patriotism, and dedication! The bells and whistles, the demons retreat!"

...

The barrage is noisy.

Say anything.

But no doubt.

Whether it is an old audience or a new audience, almost all of them are frightened by the scene in the dark crypt.

next second.

With the song "Main Titles" slowly flowing out of the drone, the thrilling atmosphere has been upgraded again!

The ethereal and eerie melody repeats again and again.

It's hard to find its beginning and end.

As if it will never end.

At this time, even some daring water friends could not help but tremble in their hearts.

Shut up quickly.

Stop talking.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the "big guy" who didn't know the truth in the dark.

In the mysterious atmosphere, the light of the torch is getting darker and darker.

erratic.

May go out at any time.

It's impossible to see the scene in front of you at all.

The only certainty was that the "guy" remained motionless from start to finish.

There was no sound.

Doesn't seem to be alive?

After having this thought in his mind, Lu Yu made up his mind and didn't say hello to the audience.

Taking a deep breath, he lifted his foot and walked over.

step.

two steps.

Three steps.

The distance is getting closer.

Everything becomes within reach.

Soon.

When the BGM melody took a sharp turn, Lu Yu finally came to the front.

Stand firm.

He took advantage of the trend and put the torch forward.

Finally, through the faint firelight, I could see the true face of this behemoth!

That's right.

This thing really isn't alive.

But more amazing than living things!

At first Lu Yu thought it was some unknown beast living in the crypt.

Even ready for battle.

But now it seems that the truth is not so.

It turned out that what was hidden in the darkness turned out to be a huge stone organ!

Due to the size of the organ, the

Plus the rendering of dim lighting and atmosphere.

From a distance, it looks a little weird.

Secondly, because everyone's nerves have been in a tense state.

When you see something different, it's easy to be preconceived.

They all thought that Lu Yu had encountered something extraordinary.

At this time, I learned that it was not "this guy", not a monster, a snake, a scorpion, a beast.

The audience also breathed a sigh of relief.

Hanging heart.

Finally let it go.

Raise the torch.

Lu Yu looked over the entire organization, but did not miss a single detail.

First of all, the production process of the stone is very rough.

By no means modern craftsmanship.

Most likely the work of the ancient Euridians.

Secondly, the whole organ is cast out of original stone carving.

Inverted T-shaped structure.

At the bottom is a rectangular stone base.

A stone stake as thick as an arm was embedded in the river bank.

Even after thousands of years, it is still strong.

Around the stone base, there are piles of various stones.

It is exactly the same as the gravel seen in the cave tunnel before.

In addition, in the middle of the stone base, there is a cylindrical stone mast.

Towering high.

to the top of the cave.

Spectacular.

The stone masts are covered with all kinds of weathering streaks and cracks.

However, because the air inside the cave is more humid.

The whole is quite well preserved.

But unfortunately, many parts of the organ have been scattered.

Only a devastated body remained.

The top of the stone mast has long since changed beyond recognition.

A huge circular winch hangs.

The winch is very characteristic.

The edges are concave.

It looks like it should be a pulley.

Visually, the diameter is more than five or six meters.

Amazing.

Everyone never dreamed that there was such an ingenious mechanism in this damp crypt.

After looking inside and out.

Lu Yu opened his mouth thoughtfully:

"Everyone, if you guessed correctly, this should be a simple lifting device built by the Oridians."

"That's the crane as we know it."

Historically, the earliest cranes appeared in 10 BC.

The ancient Roman architect Vitruvius once had a detailed description of lifting machinery in his architectural manual.

The specific shape and lifting principle are similar to this.

It's all a mast.

The top of the pole is equipped with pulleys.

The position of the mast is fixed by the guy wires.

Use the winch to pull the cable through the pulley to lift the heavy load.

Except for the sloop.

There are also two masts that form a herringbone crane.

The humanoid crane can move the hoisted heavy objects laterally.

But the magnitude is small and the operation is very laborious.

It was not until the 15th century that the Italians invented the jib crane to solve this problem.

This kind of crane has an inclined cantilever, and the top of the arm is equipped with pulleys, which can be lifted and rotated.

However, before the 18th century, all kinds of lifting machinery used by human beings were still mainly powered by human and animal power.

It is very limited in terms of lifting weight, scope of use and work efficiency.

But even so.

The lifting skills mastered by these long-eared people living in Oridia are also a thousand or two thousand years earlier than those of the outstanding architects of ancient Rome...

He stared at the huge creature standing in front of him.

Lu Yu shook his head and sighed, thinking in his heart.

These natives put the cranes here.

Is there any special purpose?

Come to think of it, this cave is not a tunnel dug to avoid the war?

But a mysterious underground fortification?

The question that Lu Yu was thinking about was also the most concerned by the audience.

Everyone has been discussing the bottom of the barrage:

"Aren't these people going to build pyramids?"

"Brother, you think too much!"

"I think it's likely to be full! (hands funny)"

"Leather pants over leather pants, there must be a reason!"

...

Layout and environmental conditions inside the cave.

Not suitable for any major construction.

With the arrival of the rainy season, the water level of the dark river has skyrocketed, and no matter how strong the fortification is, it is difficult to resist.

Therefore, this jack has another purpose.

But the exact reason is still unclear.

What is certain, however, is that the ancient Oridians must have done something great with it.

Otherwise, they wouldn't go to great lengths to dig through the cave.

Get these flashy things.

Stand in front of the crane.

Lu Yu thought hard for a while.

Next, a casual glance.

Suddenly his heart moved.

Turned attention to those abandoned stones.

The purpose of building a crane is nothing more than to carry heavy objects.

Otherwise, it will be meaningless.

The long-eared stone statues of Oridia are scattered all over the island.

Large and small, almost everywhere.

In a primitive society where productivity was not developed and all work depended on manpower, it was by no means easy to move these stone statues to a suitable location.

So, the crane came into being.

also.

The groundwater system on the island is very large and extends in all directions.

The built stone statue can be transported to the boat and the raft by the crane to take the waterway, which can perfectly solve the problem of transportation.

A light flashed in my mind.

Gradually, Lu Yu wanted to understand the ins and outs of this.

After talking to the audience about my conjecture.

He went on to say:

"The stone is put on the raft. When the rainy season comes, the water level of the dark river will rise, and the raft will naturally float and be transported to the place you want to transport."

"From this, we can judge that the entire North Shore is definitely more than this cave."

"The transportation system of the Oridians should be spread all over the island..."

"The ebb and flow of the dark river is completely different from the tide of the sea. The only way to control the water level is for the groundwater storage to reach its peak. When the atmospheric precipitation reaches the expected level, the water level of the river will naturally rise, producing huge buoyancy."

"And the key to judging the rise of the water level of the dark river, in addition to the seasonal climate, there is another most intuitive method, that is the spring of the temple."

"It's clear at a glance, it's seamless. They should have used this method to complete this impossible task..."

Water transport has been around since ancient times.

As early as the primitive society, the tribes who lived together by water had learned to dig wood and boats instead of walking.

Egypt's Khufu ship, China's Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, are all outstanding representatives of water transportation.

Speaking of which, the intelligent ancient Oridians should also be among the best.

Taking advantage of the island's unique environmental advantages, he has excavated countless pure natural grand canals for himself.

Make the impossible possible.

In order to verify his thoughts, Lu Yu then walked around the crane again.

result.

Really found a lot of strong evidence.

There are many crane parts on the ground that have long been petrified.

Picking up a copper swinging ring from the ground, he excitedly said to the camera:

"Friends, it seems that my analysis should be correct."

"Back then, they used this behemoth to transport one after another of stone statues, materials, and even supplies through this ancient canal to all parts of the island."

"When the water level of the dark river drops, people will transfer the corresponding materials to the raft. When the water level rises, the raft will float up."

"Everyone, this is the wisdom of human beings. They are good at discovering and inferring other things, so as to establish one extraordinary brilliant civilization after another."

Look at the dilapidated fortifications in front of you.

The audience naturally made up the busy and laborious scenes in the cave.

For the vanity of the ruling class.

The coolies sweat like rain and live in the dark underground.

Work hard until the tribe perishes.

This kind of thing seems sad, but it is the inevitable development of history.

Because wisdom always has a price.

The same is true of social development.

However, to Lu Yu, none of these matters.

The most important thing right now is that he accidentally found a very convenient way home!

As long as he wants, this ancient canal should be able to transport him to any place on the island!

Instead of going bumpy on land, it's a good idea to go by water.

thought here.

He raised the corners of his mouth and said to the audience with a smile:

"Since the Oridians have provided us with this convenience, then we must make good use of it."

"So, brothers, this time I decided to be lazy, build a raft on the spot, and let the dark river take us home!"

After having this idea, Lu Yu immediately took action.

left the cave.

After returning to the woods, he took out the stone axe and began to collect the necessary materials for the construction of the raft.

When I heard that Lu Yu was going to build a raft.

The rhythm of "Yu Bi Shen" in the barrage was instantly brought up.

Too happy.

"Yu Bishen is online!"

"The anchor is really a clever little ghost!"

"What is Yu Bishen? Please let me know!"

"Hands are funny!"

"Sit and wait for the car to roll over, and make a post as a proof!"

"Ha ha!"

...

five minutes later.

Holding a large bundle of wood, Lu Yu returned to the camera.

After taking a breath, he immediately started to build the raft.

The production process remains the same.

First make the bottom, and use wooden sticks to join the boat surface.

Very simple.

Fortunately, I brought enough knives to go out this time. If I only work with bare hands, I don't know how busy I will be.

Soon, it was chopped, watched and tied, and it took a full hour.

A simple small raft appeared in front of the audience.

"Okay, brothers, that's about it."

"Now let's go in and try, and let this guy give us a ride if we can."

Back in the cave again.

Lu Yu simply sorted out the various equipment on his body, then put the raft on the river, picked up the paddle, and sat on it.

Homemade rafts are definitely incomparable to professional canoes.

Buoyancy itself is poor.

So as soon as I get on it, the whole raft sinks into most of it.

The icy river water did not reach Lu Yu's waist all of a sudden.

The draught is very deep.

In addition, because the water flow is too fast, and it is not well controlled.

The boat almost capsized.

Fortunately, there are paddles in hand to control the balance.

Otherwise, this time it really overturned.

In the live broadcast, Lu Yu waved the oars and danced wildly.

The splashing water made the lens wet.

Although the content is a bit vague, the audience can still be seen laughing and posting barrages:

"Overturned!"

"Feather must sink!"

"Fuck, there's something inside!"

"I guessed the ending before it even started!"

"Haha, 6666!"

...

soon.

Master the rhythm of drifting.

The raft gradually stabilized.

Following the turbulent dark river, Lu Yu went all the way to XI.

Extremely fast.

This speed is much faster than walking in the jungle.

The only downside is that there is no lighting.

Field of view is limited.

Extremely uncomfortable.

Can only rely on the faint light of the drone.

See the road ahead.

Fortunately, the space in the cave is not cramped, but also wide enough.

Even if the vision is not good.

But there's also enough time to see what's going on ahead.

In order to timely judge the situation of the river.

Since the Oridians used this river to transport supplies.

The direction and hydrological conditions of the river should not be too bad.

but.

Factors such as the inducement of geological movement and the change of groundwater system are considered.

In the process of driving, Lu Yu still did not relax his vigilance.

Always annotating the front of the river, for fear of another accident...
