Peter and Derek retreated to the spiral staircase, looking nervously at Ye Tian's back.

While full of expectations, these two guys were also ready to turn around and run away, rushing directly to the ground, avoiding being buried alive in this underground space.

Ye Tian took a magnifying glass and looked at the gears on the five turntables one by one, looking very carefully.

His behavior is seen in the eyes of others, there is nothing wrong with it, and it will not cause others to question it.

Under normal circumstances, if you don't know the correct password and cannot disassemble the Da Vinci cipher cylinder, only by observing the depth of the friction marks on the gears can you find the correct password to open this stone gate!

But who knew that the internal structure and operation mechanism of the cryptex created by Leonardo da Vinci himself, as well as the several organ traps connected to the cryptex behind the wall, Ye Tian had already seen through perspective!

He also knew the distribution of those traps, how they were triggered, and how deadly and dangerous they were!

And the way to open this Da Vinci cryptex, that is, the correct password, he already knew.

However, the necessary performance is still indispensable, otherwise you will be asking for trouble!

Under the magnifying glass, the friction marks on the five turntables were clearly shown in Ye Tian's eyes. The marks on most of the gear teeth were similar, but there were also relatively deep friction marks on individual gear teeth.

These gear teeth with relatively deep friction marks are naturally the target of Ye Tian's focus and research.

After spending nearly ten minutes, he carefully checked the exposed teeth of the five roulette wheels, and then fell into contemplation.

After a while, he suddenly said in an excited tone:

"Guys, I think I found the correct password to open this stone gate, hope my guess is correct!"

Hearing this, Peter and Derek, who were standing at the foot of the stairs behind, couldn't help being stunned!

Found the correct password so quickly? It is too amazing, or the legendary Da Vinci cryptex is not so exaggerated, it is not very difficult to crack!

Thinking of this, both Peter and Derek couldn't help feeling a little surprised.

But then they thought about who was standing in front of the Da Vinci cryptex, that was Steven, a man who had created countless incredible miracles, and a guy who was always favored by God!

For Steven, there seems to be no unsolvable problem in this world!

Even if the cryptex that Da Vinci made more than five hundred years ago and only existed in legends in the past, in the eyes of this magical fellow Stephen, it is estimated that it is not that difficult.

Thinking of this, Peter and the others were immediately relieved and even more excited!

"I heard that right? Steven, it's incredible that you found the correct password so quickly!"

"It's great! Steven, so we don't have to worry about whether we can return to the ground alive!"

Peter and Derek exclaimed in excitement, and apparently relaxed a lot.

Ye Tian looked back at these two guys, then smiled and said:

"Yes, I should have found the correct code to open this Da Vinci cipher. The teeth on the five roulettes look the same at first, but they are different in fact, some are wide and narrow, some are long and some are short.

On the first and third turntables of this cipher cylinder, I found two gear teeth with heavy friction marks. Not only that, there were slight impact marks on these two gear teeth, but none of the other gear teeth.

This should have been formed by the moment when the two gear teeth and the card bamboo occluded when a person opened this cipher cylinder more than 500 years ago. As long as the gear teeth and the card bamboo are closely connected, the corresponding mechanism can be opened.

It is inferred from this that when the two gear teeth turn into the cipher cylinder, they will bite together when they encounter the corresponding card bamboo shoots, but this is not enough to open the Da Vinci cipher cylinder, and there are three turntables!

You may ask, after these two gears are turned into the cryptex, they will no longer be visible. How do you know what the two letters corresponding to the outside are? These two letters are part of the password! "

Before he finished speaking, Derek immediately said:

"Yes, Steven, I do have such a question. This is similar to the principle of an old-fashioned turntable lock. The number that is exposed and facing the pointer is the number that makes up the code!

As you can see, there is also an arrow above the Da Vinci cryptex. Don’t ask, you can only open the cryptex by aligning the correct five letters with this arrow!

We can't see the structure inside the cipher, we don't know how to rotate it, and we don't know where the two gear teeth with impact marks will bite into the card.

When the two gear teeth are turned into the cipher cylinder, once they bite together with Kasun, what are the two letters facing the indicating arrow outside, let alone five letters!

Without knowing the correct password, just knowing these two teeth that can bite into Kasun doesn’t seem to be enough, right? Isn’t it too risky to rely solely on the feel and hearing? "

Hearing this, Peter also nodded, obviously feeling the same.

Ye Tian smiled softly, and said confidently:

"What you said is correct, Derek, there is indeed such a problem. If you only rely on your hand and hearing, no matter how sharp you feel, it will be difficult to grasp the scale and find the correct password.

Even me, my senses are sharp enough, and I have used a stethoscope to assist in opening many old-fashioned safes without a password. Facing the cryptex made by Da Vinci, I dare not risk it!

In the old-fashioned safes, even if you enter the wrong password, you can try again. There is no fatal danger. The Da Vinci cryptex in front of you is different. There is probably only one chance!

If it fails, the consequences may be extremely serious. If this stone gate cannot be opened, we may even leave our lives here. What is hidden here may also be instantly destroyed."

Hearing this, both Peter and Derek's expressions changed, their expressions suddenly became a lot more dignified, and they were no longer as optimistic as they were just now!

After a short pause, Ye Tian's tone also changed.

"However, the Latin letters corresponding to the two teeth with impact marks have brought me a trace of inspiration, and also made me regain the hope of opening this cryptex and this stone gate!

The inspiration I said came from Leonardo’s masterpiece, "The Last Supper" at the Santa Maria delle Grazie church in Milan The last time I came to Milan, I had studied the fresco carefully. !

In that world-famous mural, there are several sets of Latin letters and some Fibonacci numbers hidden, and they are so deep that most people can't find it, only some experts and scholars know.

Those groups of Latin letters appear in groups of two, a total of five groups, hidden in different positions, such as between the hair of Jesus, under the folds of the robe worn by Matthew, and so on.

And those Fibonacci numbers are also extremely secretive and hard to be discovered! Since those Latin letters and Fibonacci numbers were discovered, countless experts and scholars have been studying their meanings.

To this day, no expert or scholar has given a relatively authoritative explanation, and no one knows what Leonardo really meant to hide those Latin letters and Fibonacci numbers!

It wasn't until just now that I saw these two gear teeth with impact marks and the Latin letters engraved on the gear teeth, and I finally understood what those groups of Latin letters are! "

Before the words were over, the scene had exploded, and Peter and Derek exclaimed directly.

"Gosh! Steven, don't you tell me that the few sets of Latin letters hidden in "The Last Supper" are the correct passwords to open this stone gate?"

"Bingo! You are right, Derek, Leonardo da Vinci tried so hard to hide the Latin letters in "The Last Supper", it is very likely that we are looking for the password!

As for the Fibonacci numbers hidden in the "Last Supper", the specific meaning is not yet clear, but I believe that this riddle will be solved soon! "

Ye Tian said with a triumphant smile, and pointed at Derek and Peter with a confident look.
