Chapter 89 Jones
What you see in front of you is not a rock wall, but a huge rolling stone!
This rolling stone directly blocked the passage and turned the place into a deserted place, and it is very likely that a "foreign friend" named Alexander Alex Jones was lovingly buried underneath.
If you are an ordinary person, no matter how regretful you are when faced with this situation, you can only retreat, or go back and mobilize a large force to fight again tomorrow.
But Li Heng doesn't need it.
Isn't it just a stone? It's how it was done when it came here, and it's still how it is done now.

There was a violent friction sound from the stones, which had blocked the crossing for who knows how many years. At this time, they were moved again by brute force, making a sound like cracking bones.
Li Heng used half of his body as a lever for support, and his waist worked together with his shoulders. The two big arms output huge kinetic energy like the hydraulic cylinders of a crane, constantly forcing the boulder that blocked the cave to move.
Of course, he didn't use all his strength, but used the shape of the tunnel itself as a lever moment to exert force.
Boom—crash—
But what the film and television industry wants is gimmicks, no matter how bizarre they are. By absorbing and changing these incredible experiences, it becomes the life story of the classic character Indiana Jones.
Different from the background of the Werner Harvard scholar, that person was a private adventurer active during World War II. He mostly acted in a private capacity. It is said that he also participated in the Armenian army's accompanying army press corps, and took advantage of the army.
Travel around the ruins of ancient civilizations around the world and explore major ancient places.
"Alexander Alley Jones...Alley Jones...Jones...can't be him?"
When Li Heng pushed the rolling stone to reveal a space where people could pass, he stopped.
They include an aluminum alloy flashlight with expired batteries, a thin steel rope, a waterproof windbreaker, an American engineer pickaxe, and even a small gas mask and a very old mechanical Kodak camera.
Of course, this does not extend too much. Back to the topic, movie characters are sometimes not derived from a single historical figure. Most of the time, creators will use multiple prototypes in combination.
"The direction he entered this tunnel is different from mine. He came from the opposite side, so the half that was not pressed under the stone is on the opposite side of the rolling stone. In other words, he did not enter from the White Lotus Sect cave where I came from.
underground”
Very balanced, this is probably the legendary 50-50 split.
As a large amount of gravel rolled down, a gap appeared from the sealed crossing and became larger and larger, and what was underneath the stone was slowly revealed.
It is also said that he later arrived in China and even found a long-lost section of the Great Wall. The beacon tower of that section of the ancient Great Wall actually had a sweat-blooded BMW tied to it. Around the BMW's neck was a picture of a royal horse from the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty.
The Jianmu sign means that it is a horse that has lived for five hundred years!
The character of Indiana Jones has since spread throughout the world.
Li Heng narrowed his eyes and quickly built a timeline in his mind to connect all the information. Although there were still many links that were blank, a general outline was forming in his mind.
At this moment, he was half stuck to the rolling stones and half weathered in the tunnel.
Then he clearly saw this sleeping "foreign friend".
This mechanical Kodak camera is too old. If nothing else, Li Heng guessed that this thing is probably older than his grandfather, if his grandfather is still alive.
Li Heng waited and began to look at this person's relics. Although many of them were broken under the rolling stones, there were still some scattered around and preserved.
It's not the camera itself, but the film in the camera.
Rumor has it that one of them is the Harvard scholar Langdon Warner, who is also known as the Dunhuang Thief!
At that time, the land of China was in chaos when it was divided and divided. This person was supported by a warlord and went to Dunhuang for archaeological excavation. In name, he was excavating but in fact he stole and destroyed a large number of ancient cultural relics. Those national treasures are still living overseas in other countries.
Exhibition in the museum.
There are also legends about his adventures in Southeast Asia, such as the ancient pagodas from the Mauryan Dynasty, whose bells are still ringing, and the golden skeletons found in Luzon that were thousands of years old... In short, they are so rare.
"That's right. The White Lotus Sect cave I entered has long been sealed by rocks, and there are no signs of it being opened."
An idea flashed through his mind.
Just as Indiana Jones didn't just draw on Warner's deeds, there was actually another person who was its real main prototype.
However, it is widely recognized in the academic circles that this person did have rich adventure experience, but most of the rumors are fabricated and basically belong to the category of street stall literature. They were fabricated randomly to increase his popularity and have no real evidence.
This movie character is of course fictional, but when creating him, he also made reference to real characters in history.
It was even rumored that he found Leonardo da Vinci's laboratory built underground in Rome, which contained an unfinished instrument. At the time, no one knew what the machine was used for. It was not until hundreds of years later that humans invented the internal combustion engine.
It was discovered that the structure of that machine was the prototype of a single-stroke internal combustion engine.
It can be seen that this person is definitely a professional. As an explorer, he is much more professional than a guy like Li Heng who just wants to do it at the last minute.
This person's surname is Alley Jones, and the specific name is unknown. Compared to Warner, he does not have much reputation in the orthodox archaeological community, and there are more folk rumors.
"And based on this speculation, this person should have arrived here after the rat tide occurred. Otherwise, if the rolling stones blocked the passage, the rats would not be able to get through, and it would be impossible for the rats to wreak havoc in the Shentaishe."
Then he took out the metal nameplate and looked at it in his hand, looking at the English name on it, and then at his friend who was half sleeping on the ground and half glued to the stone.
It's a pity that he died anyway, caught in a simple but fatal trap.
Friends who like to watch movies may know that in the 1980s, there was a suspense adventure movie that became popular all over the world, "Raiders of the Lost Ark" directed by the great Hollywood director Spielberg.
This film tells the anecdotal story of Indiana Jones, an archaeologist and adventurer, as he explores and unearths treasures in ancient ruins around the world. The film has been released to great acclaim, and a total of five films were filmed over the next twenty years.
A foundational masterpiece in this genre of film.
Li Heng looked through the remaining things he had, looking for items that might be useful. In the end, after searching all over, the only thing he was interested in was the camera.
It is said that he once discovered a pyramid buried deep in the desert in Africa that no one has ever found. According to his description, it was a more majestic building than the Pyramid of Giza. However, it has not been found yet, and it is mostly just a rumor.
As for the ending of Alley Jones himself, no one knows. They only know that he announced a trip to Asia many years ago and created a big gimmick. He claimed that he would bring a miracle that "subverts cognition" to the world.
.
However, nearly a century has passed since this so-called "miracle", and no one knows what it is, and no one cares about it even now.
Li Heng knew that perhaps this miracle would never appear in front of the world.
Because the owner of this miracle is now divided 50-50 in front of him.
