Chapter 2776 One Way Deep
After a while, Ye Tian took the two TV hosts down to the bottom of the spiral staircase, and joined Peter who was guarding here and another company employee.
The reason why Peter and the others guarded here was to protect the Da Vinci cipher box embedded in the wall and this thick stone door to prevent anyone from playing any tricks.
After standing still, Ye Tian and the two TV hosts took off the safety ropes on their bodies, and informed the company employees staying in the basement to take back the safety ropes for others to use.
Afterwards, the two TV hosts immediately looked at the Da Vinci cryptex embedded in the wall, their eyes full of fanaticism.
At the same time, the picture here also appeared on the live broadcast screen, which immediately caused a burst of exclamation!
Compared with the previous video materials taken by Ye Tian and the others, the lighting conditions here are much better at this time, and it is as if it is daytime illuminated by a few strong lights, and the shooting is more clear.
This Da Vinci cryptex, which only existed in legends, has become clearer in people's eyes.
The five dials on the cipher box, the Latin letters engraved on the gear teeth, the family emblem of the Sforza family, and the Renaissance-style decorations and patterns, every detail on the outer side of the cipher box is clearly visible!
Looking at this priceless top-level antique cultural relic made by Da Vinci himself, both the two hosts and the countless audiences in front of the live broadcast were all amazed by it!
While the two TV hosts were admiring the Da Vinci cryptex, Ye Tian was also explaining it.
"What you see now is the Da Vinci cipher that only existed in legends in the past. What I didn't expect was that this cipher actually existed and happened to be hidden here. I am very lucky!
The cryptex designed and manufactured by Leonardo da Vinci can be said to be very delicate, completely surpassing the level of technology and craftsmanship of his era. Even now, this cryptex is very advanced and extremely difficult to crack!
As you can see, there are five turntables in this cipher box, and each turntable has 26 gear teeth, which correspond to 26 Latin letters engraved. In this way, its cipher has more than 11.88 million permutations and combinations.
This is astonishing, no worse than those modern safes! If you don't know the correct password, it can be said that it is extremely difficult to crack this Da Vinci cryptex, and it is almost impossible!
More importantly, this Da Vinci cryptex is connected with many deadly traps,
Whoever cracks the code has only one chance, or succeed! Either fail, and then trigger those organ traps, and die here! "
"Wow! This is really exaggerated and thrilling!"
There was a burst of exclamation at the scene, from the two TV hosts, they were all taken aback by Ye Tian's words.
In the basement above, in the hotel, on the street outside, and in front of countless live broadcast terminals, everyone behaved the same way. They were all amazed and terrified by this Da Vinci cryptex!
After some amazement, the reporter of NBC TV immediately asked curiously:
"Steven, can you tell everyone how you cracked this Da Vinci cipher? Do you know the correct password of this Da Vinci cipher? And where did you know it?"
Before the words fell, the host of Italian National Television took over.
"Steven, in the previous video, you seem to use a medical stethoscope to open the Da Vinci cipher, which seems a bit like a myth, it's unbelievable!
You also said just now that there are more than 11.88 million permutations and combinations in the Da Vinci cryptex cipher. With such a huge cipher library, how could it be possible to find the correct cipher with a stethoscope? "
Not only the two TV hosts, but all the people who are watching the live broadcast want to know the answers to these questions.
Ye Tian glanced at the Da Vinci cryptex on the wall, then smiled confidently and said:
"How did I unlock this Da Vinci cipher, of course I used my method, first of all, I used a magnifying glass to carefully observe the teeth engraved with Latin letters, and find the teeth that open each wheel!
During the process of opening the roulette, when the gear tooth engages with the buckle in the cipher box, there must be a slight or heavy impact, leaving marks on the gear teeth, which are different from the friction marks on other gear teeth.
After confirming these gear teeth, we need to find the corresponding gear teeth. The Latin letters engraved on the corresponding gear teeth are the correct password to unlock the cipher box. At this time, the stethoscope will come in handy!
When the five roulettes rotate, they will definitely make a sound, and the sound made by the gear tooth that engages with the Kasun is different from the sound made by the other 25 gear teeth. Here we are talking about the impact sound!
I used the stethoscope to capture the impact sound, so as to determine whether the tooth with the impact mark was bitten with the corresponding card shoot, and the letter facing the arrow on the outside was the correct password!
This cipher has five dials, and I have four chances to test whether my judgment is correct. Fortunately, my hearing is very keen and my judgment is very accurate, so I was lucky enough to open this Da Vinci cipher!
In addition to the stethoscope, I was able to unravel this Da Vinci cryptex, which also relied on my in-depth research on Da Vinci's works. They provided me with inspiration and let me touch some rules, which is inconvenient to disclose!
I’m sure you’ve all heard about the fact that I use a stethoscope to open safes, but I want to clarify that yes, just give me a pair of medical stethoscopes and I can open all old-fashioned safes! "
"Wow! You can open all the old safes with just a stethoscope, didn't I hear that right? That's unbelievable!"
The two TV hosts exclaimed directly, they looked at Ye Tian as if they were looking at a monster!
Everyone in the basement and hotel above, as well as the people gathered on the street outside, and the countless audiences in front of the live broadcast, all behaved the same way, with expressions of seeing a ghost!
He is a snitch! In the eyes of this bastard, those old-fashioned safes that seem to be extremely sturdy are probably like paper, and he can take whatever he wants!
Thinking of this, those who have old-fashioned safes at home can't help but turn their heads to look at the place where the safe is, eyes full of horror!
Some suspicious guys even walked quickly to the safe and opened it in fear to see if the treasure stored in the safe was still there!
Some of them are determined to replace the safe immediately, and replace it with a digital safe that unlocks with fingerprints or irises, so as not to encounter accidents!
"Tap Tat Tat"
There was a sound of footsteps in the spiral staircase, and someone came down from it again!
Ye Tian glanced over there, and then said to the two media reporters:
"Gentlemen, please come with me, let's enter this underground space designed and built by Da Vinci himself, and explore the amazing treasures hidden in that underground palace together!"
After speaking, he made a gesture of invitation, and then led the two TV hosts into the stone gate.
At the same time, the portrait of Francesco Sforza engraved on the stone gate and the two statues of fully armed knights standing inside the stone gate also appeared on the live broadcast screen one after another.
Immediately afterwards, the gears and transmission rods installed behind the stone gate, as well as the shooting holes like a hornet's nest, all appeared on the live broadcast screen one by one, in front of everyone's eyes.
Ye Tian's explanation started again, introducing the situation here to people.
"The Italian man engraved on the stone gate is the first Milanese Grand Duke of the Sforza family, Francesco Sforza, and it was he who opened the prelude to the Sforza family's rule of the Duchy of Milan!
Entering this stone gate means that we are going to break through! The floor under our feet, as well as the surrounding walls and the vault above, are covered with various deadly traps carefully arranged by Da Vinci.
Even the two statues of knights are two deadly traps. Once they are triggered, they will attack at the same time, killing the intruders and killing them with one blow in an instant!
Let's look at the back of this stone door again. There are many gears and transmission rods that have been treated with anti-rust technology. They are a complex mechanical system, connected with deadly traps one after another.
Those who enter here, if they don't know the correct password of the Da Vinci cryptex outside, once they make a mistake or break through the door violently, they will trigger these traps and keep their lives here! ..."
Seeing these scenes and listening to Ye Tian's professional explanation, everyone couldn't help but gasped, feeling terrified!
