Peter and Derek retreated to the entrance of the spiral staircase and looked at Ye Tian's back nervously.

While full of expectations, these two guys were also ready to turn around and run away at any time, rushing directly to the ground to avoid being buried alive in this underground space.
Ye Tianze took a magnifying glass and looked at the gears on the five turntables of the cryptex one by one, looking very carefully.
In the eyes of others, there is nothing wrong with his behavior, and it will not arouse doubts from others.
Under normal circumstances, if you don’t know the correct password and cannot open the Da Vinci cryptex, you can only find out the correct password to open this stone door by observing the depth of the friction marks on the gears!
But who knew that the internal structure and operating mechanism of the cryptex made by Da Vinci himself, as well as the several traps connected to the cryptex behind the wall, Ye Tian had already seen clearly through perspective !
He also knows the distribution and triggering methods of those traps, as well as how deadly and dangerous they are!
He already knew the way to open the Da Vinci cryptex, the correct password.
However, necessary performances are still indispensable, otherwise you are asking for trouble!
Under a magnifying glass, the friction marks on the five turntables were clearly displayed in Ye Tian's eyes. The marks on most of the gear teeth were similar, but there were some deeper friction marks on some gear teeth.
These gear teeth with relatively deep friction marks are naturally the target of Ye Tian's focus and research.
It took him about ten minutes to carefully examine the exposed teeth of the five roulette wheels, and then he fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he suddenly said in an excited tone:
"Guys, I think I found the correct password to open this stone door. I hope my guess is correct!"
Hearing this, Peter and Derek, who were standing at the back stairs, couldn't help but froze!
Find the correct password so quickly? It's too amazing, or in other words, the legendary Da Vinci cryptex is not that exaggerated, and it is not very difficult to crack!
Thinking of this, Peter and Derek couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
But then they thought, who was standing in front of the Da Vinci cryptex? It was Steven, a man who created countless incredible miracles, a guy who is always favored by God!
For this guy Steven, there seems to be no unsolvable problem in this world!
Even if this cryptex was made by Leonardo da Vinci more than 500 years ago and existed only in legends in the past, in the eyes of a magical guy like Steven, it is probably not that difficult.
Thinking of this, Peter and the others were immediately relieved and even more excited!
"Did I hear you correctly? Steven, it's incredible that you found the correct password so quickly!"
"That's great! Steven, this way we don't have to worry about whether we can make it back to the ground alive!"
Peter and Derek exclaimed excitedly, visibly relaxed.
Ye Tian looked back at these two guys, then said with a smile:
"Yes, I should have found the correct password to open this Da Vinci cryptex. The teeth on these five roulette wheels look similar at first, but in fact they are different. Some are wide, some are narrow, and some are long.
On the first and third turntables of this cryptex, I found two gear teeth with relatively heavy friction marks. Not only that, there were slight impact marks on these two gear teeth, but there were no other gear teeth. .
This should have been caused by the moment when the two gear teeth and the bamboo shoots were engaged when someone opened the cryptex more than five hundred years ago. Only when the gear teeth and the bamboo shoots fit together tightly can the corresponding mechanism be opened.
It can be inferred from this that when the two gear teeth rotate into the cryptex and encounter the corresponding snaps, they will bite together, but this is not enough to open the Da Vinci cryptex. There are three more Here's the turntable!
You may ask, after these two gear teeth are turned into the cipher cylinder, they cannot be seen. How do you know what the two letters corresponding to them outside are? These two letters are the components of the password! ”
Before he finished speaking, Derek immediately continued:
"Yes, Steven, I do have such a question. This is similar to the principle of the old-fashioned turntable lock. What is exposed and facing the pointer is a number that makes up the password!
As you can see, there is also an arrow above the Da Vinci cryptex. Needless to say, only by aligning the correct five letters with this arrow can the cryptex be opened!
We can’t see the structure inside the cipher cylinder. We don’t know how to rotate it, and we don’t know where the two gear teeth with impact marks will engage with the bamboo shoots.
When these two gear teeth are turned into the cryptex, once they are engaged with the card, what are the two letters facing the indicator arrow outside, let alone five letters!
Without knowing the correct password, just knowing these two gear teeth that can engage with the jammed bamboo shoots seems not enough, right? Is it too risky to rely solely on feel and hearing? ”
Hearing this, Peter also nodded, obviously feeling the same.
Ye Tian smiled softly and said confidently:
"You are absolutely right, Derek. There is indeed such a problem. If you only rely on touch and hearing, no matter how keen your sense is, it will be difficult to grasp the scale and find the correct password.
Even if I have sharp enough senses and have used a stethoscope to open many old-fashioned safes without passwords, I would not dare to take risks when faced with this cryptex made by Leonardo da Vinci!
For those old-fashioned safes in the past, even if you entered the wrong password, you could try again without any fatal danger. However, the Da Vinci cryptex in front of you is different. You may only have one chance!
If we fail, the consequences may be extremely serious. If we cannot open this stone door, we may even leave our lives here, and the things hidden here may also be destroyed instantly.”
After hearing this, the expressions of Peter and Derek changed, and their expressions suddenly became much more solemn, and they were no longer as optimistic as before!
After a pause, Ye Tian's tone also changed.
“However, the Latin letters corresponding to the two gear teeth with impact marks brought me a trace of inspiration, and also gave me hope to open this cryptex and this stone door!
The inspiration I am talking about comes from Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece, "The Last Supper" located in the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan. I studied that mural carefully when I was in Milan last time!
In that world-famous mural, there are several sets of Latin letters and some Fibonacci numbers hidden, and they are so deeply hidden that ordinary people cannot discover them. Only some experts and scholars know about them.
Those groups of Latin letters all appear in groups of two, there are five groups in total, and they are hidden in different locations, such as between the hair of Jesus, inside the folds of the robe worn by Matthew, etc.
There are also those Fibonacci numbers, which are also extremely secretive and difficult to be discovered! Since the discovery of those Latin letters and Fibonacci numbers, countless experts and scholars have been studying their meanings.
To this day, no expert or scholar has given a relatively authoritative explanation. No one knows Leonardo da Vinci’s true intention of hiding 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, that I suddenly had an idea and finally figured out what those groups of Latin letters were! ”
Before he finished speaking, the scene exploded, and Peter and Derek screamed in surprise.
"Oh my god! Steven, please don't tell me that the groups of Latin letters hidden in "The Last Supper" are the correct password to open this stone door?"
"Bingo! You are right, Derek, those Latin letters that Leonardo da Vinci took great pains to hide in "The Last Supper" are most likely the password we are looking for!
As for the specific purpose of the Fibonacci numbers hidden in "The Last Supper", it is not yet clear, but I believe that this riddle will be solved soon! ”
Ye Tian said with a proud smile, and pointed at Derek and Peter, looking confident.
