Chapter 390 Riddles
Chapter 386 Riddle

Twelfth lunar month 21, night.

Jinyiwei yamen.

Lin Xiaoyao and Bao Zheng looked solemn. One was holding a basin of transparent water in his hand, and the other was holding a letter left by the mysterious man in his hand. The candlelight was swaying, and the fiery red light reflected the faces of Lin Xiaoyao and Bao Zheng. It was bright red, and its shadows were constantly changing with the beating flames.

Suddenly, Lin Xiaoyao nodded, and Bao Zheng understood. He put the letter paper on the table, picked up a chopstick, dipped it in the water Lin Xiaoyao was holding, and then brought the chopsticks into contact with the letter paper to let the liquid on the chopsticks Ability to drip onto stationery without soaking it.

Just when Bao Zheng dripped the water-like liquid on the paper, a strange thing happened. Bright red words slowly appeared on the back of the originally empty letter paper...

"It's done! Brother Bao is smart enough to know that they are repeating the old trick!" Lin Xiaoyao put down the water basin, leaned forward, looked at the handwriting that kept appearing, and praised Bao Zheng.

Bao Zheng shook his head with a smile, "Brother Lin is the one who is really smart. If you didn't know to use caustic soda to test it, I would never have been able to figure out how to crack the secret. This time they have nothing but Therefore, in addition to repeating the plan, it is also testing whether we have cracked the secret on the bank note, and if we want to use his clues to find them, we will definitely continue to follow the method he thinks, so He can clearly know everything we have..."

"So, the opponent this time is really not easy!"

Bao Zheng suppressed his smile, and sighed softly. Bao Zheng likes to solve cases, but he doesn't like to compete with others, but there is no doubt that the mysterious person who has taken the initiative is a very scheming and wise person, just a A small trick can make everything they do have to be open and let him know!
Lin Xiaoyao smiled lightly. He picked up the paper, blew on the wet stains lightly, and said with interest: "But I think it's very interesting. I haven't played this kind of real-time strategy game with anyone for a long time. The game is over, even if it is an NPC, I can also be a hacker who can break all rules and restrictions!"

Bao Zheng didn't know what an NPC was or what a hacker was, but seeing that Lin Xiaoyao was so confident, his worry relaxed a bit. Seeing that the letter paper was dry, he said to Lin Xiaoyao, "Look at what he left us. clue."

Lin Xiaoyao also nodded, stopped talking, and looked directly at the bright red words on the letter paper.

"Being able to see these words means that you have deciphered our code words. Yes, indeed, you are qualified to play this game with me!"

"I'll give you the first clue. The time is two days. If you don't solve it within two days and find the place I let you reach, then you lose! Remember, this first clue is: Dragon Born Nine Sons , all different! Long live the emperor, really ten thousand years?"

Only these two paragraphs were left on the back of the letter, and the only sixteen words that were really useful were: Dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of them different!Long live the emperor, really ten thousand years?
Lin Xiaoyao and Bao Zheng looked at the secret language, and they both frowned and said nothing. The secret language is not difficult to understand, it is obscure, but it is also because everyone understands it, so it is even more incomprehensible. Dragon has nine sons, each is different It was an allusion in a fairy tale, and Lin Xiaoyao didn't think of any other meanings of this allusion?

And the last sentence "Long live the emperor, really ten thousand years?" Lin Xiaoyao and Bao Zheng were even more frightened. How could these words be said casually? Even Lin Xiaoyao knew that saying these words would definitely cause the emperor's displeasure. Beheading is all because of the emperor's mercy!

Which emperor doesn't know that he can't live to live forever?But why do they always like others to call them long live?It can be said that this is a beautiful wish, and it can also be said that it is a manifestation of their self-deception. They can deceive themselves, but they firmly do not allow others to speak out about this matter. The emperor's tiger beard, it's hard not to die!

After a long silence, Bao Zheng broke the silence and asked, "Brother Lin, what do you think?"

Lin Xiaoyao couldn't help but scratch his hair. He stood up and walked around for a while, then sat down and drank tea. After a full quarter of an hour, he finally sighed helplessly, lowered his head and said: "Brother Bao, I It seems that I have become stupid, why can’t I even guess such a simple riddle?”

"It's not that we are stupid, but the enemy is too cunning. I couldn't figure out what this sentence means in a short time." Bao Zheng also shook his head and said helplessly.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyao could only shrug, "Even smart people like us can't guess it. Who else in this world can guess this kind of riddle? I think we have no hope. If we had known the university I'll just study riddles, let's see who can beat me!"

"University?" Bao Zheng didn't particularly understand Lin Xiaoyao's words, so he couldn't help but wondered: "Brother Lin is talking about the "University" in the Four Books? I have also studied that book carefully, and I didn't find anything related to the nine sons of the dragon." Article?"

Seeing Bao Zheng's serious look, Lin Xiaoyao couldn't help but rolled his eyes. Because he was in a bad mood, he didn't want to explain anything. What's more, he really didn't know how to explain it. He couldn't say that the university you mentioned was for learning. Did I go to university?Will he understand what "up" means?Thinking about it, I was a little excited!

Seeing that Lin Xiaoyao wasn't interested in explaining, Bao Zheng didn't mind either. He was just such a character, too kind, and always thoughtful of others. Such a person could be called a good old man, and generally he didn't live long, but Bao Zheng Zheng is too smart, he is rich in wisdom that is difficult for the world to touch, so even if he is a good old man, he can still be successful, that's why Lin Xiaoyao worships and likes him so much.

"Actually, Brother Lin, if we can't guess it, it may not be impossible for others to guess it. And I believe that there is someone who can guess it."

Bao Zheng blinked at Lin Xiaoyao for the first time, and his words had some indescribable meaning, which made Lin Xiaoyao feel goosebumps.

"Uh...that...Brother Bao, you know me too. Although I will worship you, I am a family man. I really don't like men..." Lin Xiaoyao suddenly put his arm in front of him , said pitifully.

Bao Zheng: "..."

"Brother Lin, don't be joking, I'm telling you something serious!" Bao Zheng was really speechless at Lin Xiaoyao's open mind. He couldn't see his own obvious hints. I really don't know how he got those things. What about the beautiful heart?
When Lin Xiaoyao heard that Bao Zheng was not going to do that shameful thing with him, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then who is the person that Brother Bao is talking about? He is actually smarter than us, and he is trusted by Brother Bao." , I really want to get to know him!"
