Chapter 290 Riddles
"Danyang King's Xianzu, can you understand it?" After his parents fell asleep halfway, Yuan Yuan came to Qin Shou's side and asked curiously when he saw that he had been reading this ancient book.
"It's nothing special, just something for entertainment." Qin Shou put the ancient book aside.
Driven by curiosity, Yuan Yuan picked up an ancient book and flipped through it: "How do you know it's something for entertainment? Why can't I understand it?"
"Because I'm smarter?"
This made her roll her eyes.
While she was reading, Qin Shou turned to play chess with Lu Hua. It would take a whole day to fly to Hua County, and the journey was quite boring.
The rescued survivors, including Lu Hua's subordinates, were sleeping in their seats. It was already afternoon, and it was replaced by Shen Ping.
I don't remember playing a few games of chess, and Lu Hua was also sleepy. Except for Qin Shou and Yuan Yuan, everyone around had their eyes closed, and many people were snoring.
In this situation, Qin Shou also followed the trend and decided to sleep for a few hours.
Put on the blindfold and lean back, reclining into a resting position.
I don't know how long I slept, but I was pushed awake by Yuan Yuan, I pulled off the blindfold and fell asleep: "Are you there?"
"It's still early!" Yuan Yuan whispered into his ear for fear of disturbing others.
"Then I'll sleep again." Qin Shou put on his blindfold and continued to rest.
"Wait a minute," Yuan Yuan posted up, leaning on his shoulder to present the ancient book, "What kind of characters are these? I haven't taught them since I went to university."
Qin Shou glanced at it casually, and saw that the page Yuan Yuan turned to had four lines of Chinese characters written on it: "郬尨邓高望, 絔苏向石昊, 邾鹤祤祤祤, 玹鹤带吱鑶."
In addition to these strange Chinese characters, there are also "up and down, left and right, BABA."
After time travelling, Qin Shou realized that because of the existence of Danyang King, there are Chinese characters in this world, especially Qinglong Kingdom, which mainly uses Chinese characters, but some of the more complicated and uncommon Chinese characters are basically invisible. people.
For example, these four strange Chinese characters make people confused.
In fact, Qin Shou couldn't understand it at first glance. He knew these words, but he didn't know them. It doesn't matter if his education level is low.
Afterwards, I felt a little impressed, and suddenly realized, isn’t this Martian text on the Internet?
The so-called Martian language doesn’t really come from Mars, but netizens use various Chinese characters instead of normal sentences or names to create confusing but understandable things.
You don't need to care what the word is, as long as you look at its shape or what it contains, you can basically interpret it.
As a senior netizen, Qin Shou took out a pen and paper, and compared the words and sentences on the ancient book to copy: "The first one should be green, the second one should be shaped like a dragon, the third one should be Deng without the shape, and the fourth one should be Gao in the middle." Word? What the hell is the fifth one? Qinglong Climbing... Qinglong Climbing...Look? Kind of like..."
Interpreting each word, Yuan Yuan next to him was full of doubts. He didn't know the principle of Qin Shou's interpretation, but he didn't bother him, just watched quietly.
After spending more than ten minutes and revising it several times, Qin Shou finally came up with what he thought was a completely correct interpretation: "The green dragon climbs high to look up, the white tiger roars at the sunset, the vermilion bird's feathers tip, and the basalt hides underground."
"What?" Yuan Yuan looked puzzled, "It doesn't look like poetry, and it means that it doesn't look like structure. The problem is that I can't see what I want to express. How can a legendary historical figure like King Danyang be like a god? Write such a strange poem? Did you translate it wrong?"
"Impossible!" Qin Shou replied firmly, "That's how he wrote it. There are four strange sentences written on this page, and the following one is obviously a secret technique!"
"What secret skill?"
"It's not important!" Qin Shou couldn't explain it to her. After thinking carefully, he said, "There are four incomprehensible words written on the same page, and there are secret skills underneath, so I'm afraid they are related! In my opinion, These four sentences are probably a riddle."
"riddle?"
"Yeah!" Qin Shou nodded, "The green dragon is looking up, the white tiger is roaring at the sunset, the vermilion bird's feathers are tipped, and the basalt is hidden in the ground. The four holy beasts are all there. Could it be related to the four holy stars?"
"Wait!" Yuan Yuan thought of something, "Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku, and Xuanwu, are they related to the four continents and the four countries?"
"Also a possibility!"
While the two were talking, Lu Hua woke up when he heard the noise, and poked his head from Qin Shou's other side: "What are the green dragons and white tigers?"
His face was completely sleepy, and he was in a daze.
After that, he rubbed his face vigorously, and joined the discussion after a little sobriety: "Danyang Wang's literary talent is outstanding, it is impossible to write such a bad poem. It is recorded in the fairy compilation, it must have its meaning. The first three sentences do not have any meaning. Why do you write underground hiding in the fourth sentence? Is there something hidden?"
"It's possible!" Yuan Yuan's eyes lit up, "Could it be that King Danyang hid a treasure in Xuanwu Kingdom?"
"How could King Danyang go to Xuanwu Kingdom to hide things?" Lu Hua shook his head, "Impossible?"
"But in the era of King Danyang, the four holy stars did not name the four continents of Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku, and Xuanwu, nor did they have the current Qinglong Kingdom, Baihu Kingdom, Suzaku Kingdom, and Xuanwu Kingdom!" Yuan Yuan said, "At that time The Kingdom of Hua, assisted by King Danyang, rules the world, and has gone to sea to fight, so he may not have been to Xuanwu Kingdom! Maybe King Danyang left some treasures in Xuanwu Kingdom?"
"If you say that, it's really possible!" Qin Shou nodded, "Maybe the following secret technique is the key to unlocking the treasure?"
"The treasure of King Danyang?" Lu Hua whispered, "A legendary figure like him, who is praised by the people as a living god, will leave behind all kinds of fairy artifacts?"
"Immortal Artifact?" Yuan Yuan looked up at Qin Shou curiously, wondering which one is more powerful than his ability of the Chosen One?
Hearing this, Qin Shou thought to himself, the so-called fairy artifact of King Danyang is probably the system that turns into golden light and enters his body?Everything about him is probably given by the system, but his ability is different from his own, which should be different from the game simulated by the system.
"Speaking of which, after a hundred years of King Danyang, many rare treasures have disappeared, including those fairy beasts. Could it really be hidden somewhere, waiting for future generations to discover?" Lu Hua said softly, "If you can get Danyang The king's fairy weapon and fairy beast, maybe the doomsday will disappear soon, and everything will return to normal!"
"But Xuanwu Kingdom is so far away, and the Xuanwu Continent is not much smaller than our Qinglong Kingdom. Who knows where the things are buried? Besides, Xuanwu Kingdom is also occupied by zombies. I don't know what monsters are there. Just go blindly like this, and I can't find it at all. Right?" Yuan Yuan asked, "Could there be a specific point in this riddle?"
The three of them thought hard, without a clue.
In the end, Qin Shou put together the ancient books: "I'm not good at this kind of thing, let's go back and leave it to Professor Xia Yong and Professor Qian to study it! Let's ignore the treasures and whatnot, maybe it's just our overthinking, the most important thing now is to take care of ourselves. "
