Paranormal Investigation Notes

Chapter 235 Physical Interaction
Time passed bit by bit.Lu Ming raised his wrist and looked at his watch.

At this moment, it has been ten seconds since the end of the sacrifice.

He knew that it would be more difficult to do without that bang bang sound.This means that it is not acceptable to use pregnant animals to replace pregnant women. The root cause of this series of strange events lies in the special characteristics of human pregnant women that pregnant animals do not have.In this case, our follow-up research and verification methods will be reduced a lot.

Eleven, twelve, thirteen...

In the midst of this silence, in a trance, that bang bang sound suddenly sounded.

Lu Ming let go of his heart slightly.

In any case, this at least proves that it is completely feasible to use pregnant animals to perform sacrifices instead of pregnant women.It can even be said to have the same effect.

However, the rock experts and acoustic experts standing beside the sarcophagus looked at each other, and they all saw a hint of horror from each other's faces.

The human ear can be wrong, but the instrument is less likely to be wrong.Now, the instrument has clearly captured the sound.

The sound source positioning system also clearly pointed out that the source of the bang bang sound was the sarcophagus.

It literally came from inside this sarcophagus!But this sarcophagus is obviously solid, so how could there be a sound coming out of it?

An acoustic expert carefully looked at the data and images on the display screen, and suddenly broke out in cold sweat, his expression full of horror.

He seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying.

But everyone didn't move at this moment, and they waited silently until the bang bang sound disappeared completely.

Lu Ming and He Wei walked over quickly.

"Professor Qian, what's wrong?"

The acoustic expert called Professor Qian pointed at the display screen, trembling slightly.After a while, he said hoarsely: "Look at these data."

Lu Ming looked at it subconsciously, then withdrew his gaze and shook his head: "I don't understand."

Professor Qian took a few short breaths before reluctantly saying, "It's like this. The sound source location system shows that the sound just now was indeed coming from the sarcophagus. But...it wasn't this sarcophagus that made the sound."

Both Lu Ming and He Wei were puzzled.

What do you mean it's not the sarcophagus that made the sound?The sound clearly came from within it.

"This is a vibration frequency detection device. Sergeant Lu, well, you should know that the essence of sound is the vibration of an object. The vibration of an object will produce sound, and the sound will also cause the vibration of the object."

Of course Lu Ming knew this.This is just junior high school knowledge.

"However, I installed a total of 39 vibration frequency detection devices in this sarcophagus, its surroundings, and various places in the hall. However, depending on the distance, I detected that when the bang bang sound came out, The vibrations of the sarcophagus itself correspond to the rate at which sound decays with distance."

"what does that mean?"

Lu Ming and He Wei still didn't understand.

"This means that this sarcophagus is not the sound source itself at all. The sound is not from it. Like the rest of the hall, it only vibrates because it is affected by the sound. That is, it is not because The vibration of the sarcophagus made a sound, but because of the sound, the sarcophagus vibrated."

Lu Ming frowned slightly.

This result was indeed somewhat beyond his expectations.

"Then, where did the sound come from?"

"The sound source positioning system clearly shows that the sound comes from inside this sarcophagus. The sound is coming from this sarcophagus!"

The two systems, both of which are very precise and accurate, unexpectedly gave two diametrically opposed conclusions at this moment.

The sound came from both the sarcophagus and not from the sarcophagus.

Lu Ming looked at the rock expert next to him.

"Is there a cavity inside the sarcophagus, and there is a sound-producing device in that cavity?"

The rock expert shook his head: "It is certain that there is no cavity inside the sarcophagus."

"Okay, so there is no cavity, just some kind of sound-generating device?"

The acoustic expert shook his head and denied: "It's also impossible. If that was the case, the vibration frequency of the sarcophagus would not be what it is now. This... the object vibrates, makes a sound, and causes another object to vibrate, which is caused by the direct contact between the two objects. vibration, the energy loss rate is not the same. It is easy to distinguish."

He Wei pondered her words: "Professor Qian, you mean, the current situation... is that there is a sound source inside the sarcophagus, which is located inside the sarcophagus, but this sound source will not have any physical impact on the sarcophagus except for the sound. ?”

Lu Ming subconsciously shook his head.He felt it was ridiculous.

No physical interaction with the sarcophagus other than sound?How can this be?Unless the sound does not require anything that exists on the physical level - because once it exists, there must be interaction.

But if the device does not exist on the physical level, how can it emit sounds that can be heard and perceived by the real world on the physical level?
This voice actually exists.

This cannot be explained at all.

But the acoustician nodded.

"That's it. There's only... only this one explanation."

His body was still trembling at this moment, and his face was still full of disbelief.It seems that this phenomenon has challenged his cognition and subverted his worldview.

"It should be something wrong with the equipment...it must be, it must be. Try again."

At this moment, the rest of the personnel involved in this experiment, including the senior officials of the Fate Organization, all looked at Lu Ming and He Wei anxiously, waiting for them to make the next decision.

Lu Ming thought for a while, and motioned for someone to take away all the pregnant animals placed in front of the sarcophagus.So a large number of people came in a file, and after a while, all the hundreds of pregnant animals were transported out.

These pregnant beasts will be temporarily stored in the clubhouse, and when all the pregnant beasts are tested, they will go back and forth according to the experimental procedures that have been established before.At the same time, the staff of those farms will not know what happened to these pregnant animals here.The second operation team did not give them any instructions.

How did you treat these pregnant beasts and the soon-to-be born babies in the past, and how you will treat them in the future.

Even, in order to avoid the possibility of being treated differently by the farm staff due to the fact of "being transported away and back", some of the pregnant animals that were transported will not even be tested at all.They simply come out for a trip, and go back as they came.

In this way, the possible impact of conscious differential treatment on the determination of the luck index is eliminated.

At this moment, after the first batch of one hundred pregnant beasts were transported away, the second batch of pregnant beasts that had been disposed of in advance were brought in, and the second sacrificial ceremony began.

Acoustic experts are facing an enemy.

During the period before the start of the second sacrificial ceremony, the acoustic experts were busy, tested all the equipment, and conducted several acoustic tests to confirm that all the equipment was working normally and the values ​​were accurate. Start this second sacrificial ceremony.

It is still chanting sacrificial texts, and it is still spiritual dance. After a series of procedures, the second sacrifice has also been completed.Unexpectedly, the slightly weird bang bang sounded like someone was slapping the sarcophagus from inside again.

This time, the faces of the acoustic experts were even worse.

Because the second test also came to the same conclusion as the first test.

The sound was indeed coming from inside the sarcophagus.But it does not have any physical interaction with the sarcophagus itself except for the sound.

"How can this happen, how can this happen..."

Professor Qian, the team leader, checked the values ​​of each detector in a hurry. After finding that everything was normal, he used a piece of equipment as a chair and sat down.

"It's not a sound from our world. It's, it's from another world. There's only one explanation."

Other than that, there's really no other theory to explain it.

"Well, things are getting weirder now."

Lu Ming sighed in his heart.But apart from temporarily recording this matter, at this moment, he has no way to continue to study it.

Whether it is a high-dimensional universe, a parallel universe, another universe, etc., they are all completely out of reach by current technological means, and cannot be proved or falsified.It can only be ignored for the time being.

After the second trial ended, the third trial began.Like the previous two experiments, this third test also made a boom boom.

However, this time, in addition to the still weird bang bang sound, the acoustic experts have discovered another point.

"This bang bang sound has grown louder."

Professor Qian pointed to a few numbers, his expression full of dignity.

"The sound value detected in the third experiment was about 0.015% higher than that in the first experiment."

"Grown?"

Lu Ming was a little surprised.He looked at the sorceress, and saw that sorceress was completely dazed.

"I've performed this ritual hundreds of times before, and I've never felt the sound get louder."

The other two Fate organization executives who also often participated in the sacrificial ceremony also shook their heads.

Lu Ming looked at Professor Qian again.

"Is it only the third time that the voice gets louder? What about the second time?"

"The second time actually increased, but the magnitude was too small. I suspected it was an instrument error. But the same conclusion was reached the third time, so I can be sure. Hmm... 0.015% increase, very small. People It’s normal for the ears to not be able to sense it.”

What Lu Ming is thinking about now is not this question, but...whether there is such a possibility, that is, with the increase of sacrifices, the size of the bang bang sound is actually increasing?
Not only is it increasing now, but from the Dali culture in ancient times to the fate organization in modern times, every time they sacrifice, they actually increase this voice?
Maybe the Dali culture in ancient times held sacrifices, and the sound was so small that you needed to put your ears on the sarcophagus to hear it.In modern times, when destiny organizes sacrifices, the voice can be heard directly?
But they obviously don't use instruments and equipment to measure specifically.And, the increase in the sound of each sacrifice is too small, and the interval is too long, so they didn't find that the sound would increase at all?
According to the frequency of once a month, even if a sorceress has a career of 50 years, she will only sacrifice 600 times. After 600 sacrifices, the increase in the overall sound may be less than 1%, and it is normal to not notice it.

This is quite possible.So, if this bang bang sound, like someone slapping the sarcophagus from the inside, is indeed increasing... what does it mean?
Does it imply some kind of accumulation of "energy", or some kind of progress?If yes, what will happen if this "energy" accumulates to the limit and progresses to the limit?
In the game, when the energy of a move reaches 100%, you can make a big move.On the dam, if the dam is damaged to the limit, it will collapse completely, causing a flood.When people are hungry to the limit, they will starve to death.

Generally speaking, accumulation and progress reach the limit, which means a certain process from quantitative change to qualitative change.So... If it is indeed the case, what will happen to this "qualitative change" of bang bang?
Lu Ming had no way of knowing.

He Wei looked at Lu Ming with a little worry.She was already hesitant at this moment, wondering whether she should continue the sacrifice.

Lu Ming thought for a moment and finally made a decision.

"The experiment continues. Professor Qian, you guys continue to do a good job of monitoring."

"Yes."

Now, these experiments are the only way for us to explore the mysteries of this sarcophagus.In the absence of other alternatives, it can only proceed temporarily.

Subsequent experiments continued in this way.

During this first day, a total of sixteen experiments were carried out, and the fetuses in the wombs of [-] pregnant animals were "sacrificed" to the god of fate in the sarcophagus.

Professor Qian's team has been closely monitoring the sound.The final data once again verified his previous conclusions.

The nature of these sounds is as usual, it does come from inside the sarcophagus, but there is no physical interaction with the sarcophagus other than the sound.At the same time, the voice is indeed increasing.A total of 0.12 sacrifices were made, and the sound increased by about [-]% in total.

"Chief Lu, I propose to break open this sarcophagus and see what's inside it."

Professor Qian finally gritted his teeth and made this suggestion.However, just like the last time the rock experts made this suggestion, Lu Ming once again chose to refuse.

It seems that there are more and more secrets on this sarcophagus.Breaking open the sarcophagus and directly inspecting the interior seems to be the best method.But... just because it has more and more secrets, Lu Ming has to be more cautious.

At this stage, it must not be destroyed.

"Continue testing tomorrow."

After making this decision, everyone who has been busy all day can finally rest for a while.On the second day, in addition to the remaining 1400 pregnant animals in the clubhouse, the second batch of 4000 pregnant animals will also be transported from nearby farms and pastures to participate in subsequent experiments.
