Wow, the connotation of this cross talk is so rich!

In the past few years, every time Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang recalled their master, they felt that the old man was full of countless secrets.

When they were young, their master traveled all over the mountains and rivers, watching the sun rise and the moon set, watching the spring, summer, autumn and winter.

But in his later years, when he was able to return to the sect to support his life, their master chose to return to the imperial capital to settle down and take in two apprentices to pass on the inheritance of his cross talk sect.

The key is that these two apprentices were carefully planned and abducted decades ago.

Now that I think about it carefully, I always feel that everything their master did seems to have a certain purpose.

But what is the purpose? Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang really didn't have a clue for a while.

In the end, the two were puzzled and turned their attention to the human skin left by their master.

If they can successfully decipher the ghostly symbols above and know the message left by their master, they might be able to guess their master's purpose.

The interaction between master and apprentice suddenly turned into a decryption game, which excited the two of them.

After making up their minds, the two began to study how to interpret the content on the human skin painting.

"You? Let's go to the scientific research institute and ask Professor You how about it. He is an authority in the archaeological field, and he may have seen the ghostly symbols on it."

At this time, Qin Yuejing, who was sitting at home, looked at the human skin on the coffee table in front of her, and asked Jiang Chengyang.

Jiang Chengyang nodded: "Yes, but we can't just take it like this. It's better not to let outsiders know the information Master left us for now."

"You? You're right, then let's pick a few that have more characteristics and copy them down." Qin Yuejing said, got up and went to the side to pick up a pen and paper.

Afterwards, the two picked out a few paintings that looked more like words on this human skin painting, copied them, and then contacted Professor You by phone.

Now the archaeological work of the entire Asgard has temporarily come to an end. As the general manager of the archaeological work, Professor You can finally go back to the Imperial Capital and take a good rest.

However, he couldn't stay idle when he came back, and occasionally he would spend time in the scientific research institute to study the cultural relics he brought back.

After Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang learned that Professor You was in the scientific research institute, it was not too late. They quickly took the copied pictures and went to the scientific research institute.

■

Academy of Sciences, Office of Historical Research.

Professor You sat behind the desk, wearing presbyopic glasses, carefully observing the pictures copied by Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang.

After reading for a while, he stood up and went to take out materials from the bookcase beside him.

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang just watched this old professor busy in the office, flipping through here and there from time to time, and finally slapped their heads, went back to the desk, picked up the phone, Called his assistant directly.

"Little Zhang, bring me all the pictures and texts of the ancient tomb of the Xizhao Kingdom and the ruins of the villages in the no-man's land." After speaking, Professor You hung up the phone.

Hearing that it was related to the ancient tomb of the Xizhao Kingdom and the no-man's land, Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang exchanged glances and wanted to ask, but Professor You quickly waved his hands: "You guys, stay calm and don't be impatient. ? I'll find out soon."

Not long after, a young woman knocked on the door and walked in holding a stack of documents.After she put the documents on the desk, she turned and went out.

Professor You began to look through those materials, and finally he took out one of the printed pictures and handed it to Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang.

"You guys look at this picture."

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang leaned forward.

This? It's a photo that looks like a mural in a dark tomb.

"Look at it, is there any similarity between the graffiti-like symbols and the pictures you have copied?"

Professor You put this photo and the copied paper brought by the two of them side by side.

"If you want to say that your copy is really good enough, I watched it for a long time, but I really didn't see it." When Professor You said this, he couldn't help but look up at Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang.

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang were a little embarrassed. They only used the simplest water-based pens for copying, and they didn't find any writing brushes for a while. It's not bad for them to copy to this level.

"Professor You, what exactly is this?"

Instead of discussing their imitated children's graffiti, Qin Yuejing asked directly.

Since Professor You can show them the photos, he should know the origin of these ghostly symbols.

Professor You nodded, straightened up, and began to speak:

"The first thing I want to tell you is that this kind of ghost-drawing talisman was first discovered in the ancient tomb of Xizhao Kingdom."

"When we first discovered these symbols, we were really terrified. We once suspected that this ancient tomb had been visited by tomb robbers, and it was the traces left by those tomb robbers who wrote graffiti on the wall. But when we went further Preliminary archeology found that the ancient tomb was very well preserved, without even a robbery hole. These scribbles could not have been done by tomb robbers, so the final conclusion is that they look disorganized The symbol of the tomb was painted when the ancient tomb was built.

"Then we further researched and found that these symbols were actually explained in the "Travel of the Son of Heaven", that is, when the son of the world discovered the two-headed and four-armed man 2000 years ago, he also discovered these? and boldly guessed that these symbols were the means by which the two-headed and four-armed man conveyed information. There might be a huge secret hidden in them, but no one could interpret them at the time, so Shizi ordered the craftsmen to carve these symbols on the In my own mausoleum, I hope that someone in future generations can interpret it."

Hearing the two-headed and four-armed man suddenly, Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang didn't react for a while.

When he heard the two people behind him, he suddenly realized. At the same time, he was a little shocked. Unexpectedly, this kind of symbol was actually related to the two-headed and four-armed man.

"You mean, this symbol, is it derived from those two-headed and four-armed people?"

Professor You didn't answer, but instead took out a few photos from a stack of documents in No Man's Land, and handed them to Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang:

"Look here."

On the photo? It is a large mural depicting a man with two heads and four arms. The colors are bright and the characters are vivid.

The point is that around the picture, there are also many patterns drawn by colored lines.

If ordinary people look at this mural, they will definitely think that these lines are just for decoration, but at this time, Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang, who have already seen the human skin picture, looked at this mural again, and suddenly found that, The colored lines on it are very familiar.

"This? Could it be...?" Qin Yuejing raised her head and looked at Professor You in shock.

"Yes."

Professor You picked up the photo and said,

"At the beginning, we also thought that the colorful patterns on the murals of the village ruins in the uninhabited area were just a painting feature, but after looking at them, we felt very familiar. Then we remembered that these colorful patterns It is exactly the same as the symbols in the ancient tomb of Xizhao Kingdom.

Finally, after a scientific comparison, we finally determined that the mysterious symbols in the two places are of the same type, which is true as stated in "The Son of the World". their method of information delivery. "

"Wait a minute, why is it a method of information transmission? Don't these? Are these written by people with two heads and four arms?" Qin Yuejing suddenly thought of a question at this time.

Since it is a method of transmitting information, it is nothing more than words, pictures or language, etc., etc., etc., is it impossible for this method of information transmission to be qualitative?

Professor You looked at Qin Yuejing and nodded in praise: "It's very good that you can think of this? That's right, this kind of information transmission method is different from words, pictures or language. We suspect that it is added Secret."

"encryption?"

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang frowned. The more I said this, the more mysterious it became.

"That's right. In fact, according to the entire history of human development, the appearance of writing and writing began with pictographic writing. Due to the continuous history of Huaguo, writing and writing basically retained their original state. This is the difference. Alphabet scripts produced in the West where history has been impacted and interrupted by culture.

It should be said that the characters of a nation should all originate from pictograms.

But if you look at the symbols left by these two-headed and four-armed people, there is no pictographic meaning, so we think it cannot be simply defined as words.

Of course, maybe this is a kind of text that has not been discovered by humans, but at this stage, we still think that defining this symbol as a kind of information transmission that remains between two-headed and four-armed people The method is better. "

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang knew it well. It seems that the research and discussion on this kind of symbol is currently quite rigorous academically.

"If you want to interpret this kind of symbol, you need to master a certain code. This code may be rooted in the unique physiological structure and living habits of people with two heads and four arms. Maybe they can understand it without training. symbols."

Speaking of this, Professor You paused, looked at Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang, and whispered another guess of his:

"Of course, the above? These are guesses before I have been to Shuangling Village. When I saw those two-headed and four-armed people, I had another bold guess, which is to understand this These mysterious symbols, in addition to having a biological code, may also require a certain amount of spiritual power.

You must know that those people with two heads and four arms have powers different from our ordinary people. "

After hearing this, Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang suddenly realized.

That's right, those two-headed and four-armed people have supernatural powers!

Now that I think about it, it might go something like this:

When their master went to no-man's land, he accidentally discovered this special method of information transmission, and immediately asked those two-headed and four-armed people for advice. After learning, he encrypted the content he wanted to transmit, and wrote On human skin, it was sealed in a small box? Until the passage of time, it finally came into their hands.

But now the problem is back to one? At the beginning, they have no spiritual power, how to interpret the information on the human skin?

Thinking of this, Qin Yuejing quickly asked Professor Xiang You: "Then can this symbol be deciphered now?"

Professor You shook his head, took off his glasses, and rubbed his eyes: "It is impossible to decipher, because the samples are too small, and it is very difficult to deduce the password for deciphering. There is conveyable information in the symbol, so we probably only think it is a picture. And then again, even if there are many samples and no mental power, we will not be able to interpret it successfully.”

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang fell into deep thought for a while after listening to Professor Game's explanation.

In this way, it is simply impossible for them to know the message left by their master.

Then why did their master keep the human skin?Is it just for them, as apprentices, to look up at their master's calligraphy?

"Where did you see these symbols? I won't ask, but if you come up with any results in the future, you must tell me." Professor You said with a smile.

After living so many years, if he still can't see that Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang may have other symbols in their hands, then his life will be in vain.

He suspects that these symbols should be drawn by their masters. After all, their masters have been to no-man's land before, and they have come into contact with those two-headed and four-armed people. Perhaps at that time, their masters have mastered this mystery The reading and writing of symbols is also possible.

Don't look at Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang who came here today to ask about the interpretation method. It seems that the two of them know this kind of symbol, but he has a premonition in his heart. One day in the future, maybe the two of them will be able to solve this symbol. mystery of.

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang laughed, and they really couldn't hide it from the old professor.

Immediately, the two replied that if there was any breakthrough on their side, they would definitely tell him.

After talking for a while, the two said goodbye to Professor You and left the office.

Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang did not leave the scientific research institute immediately, but went to the biological research area, intending to see Keke.

On the way to the biological research area, the two obviously felt that the security procedures were much stricter.

After some inquiring, I found out that the reason lies with Coco.

Since the last time Huangshan secretly took Ke Ke away from the scientific research institute, the scientific research institute also urgently held a security-themed conference.

At the meeting, it was seriously emphasized that in the future, both outsiders and insiders must abide by the most stringent regulations of the scientific research institute, and it is absolutely not allowed to take the experimental organisms of the scientific research institute out without permission.

At the same time, they also specifically named those who were named, and asked the whole hospital to focus on Mount Huangshan.

After all, this person is already well-known as Coco's dog leg, and he will take Coco out to play again if he can't guarantee it.

No matter what, the matter of taking cocoa without permission and leaving the scientific research institute must never happen again.

At this time, in the open-air garden of the biological area, Ke Ke is lying on his back on the lawn, basking in the sun comfortably.

The sun shines on its fiery red fur, making it look like it's glowing.

When Qin Yuejing and Jiang Chengyang came to the open-air garden, they saw such a scene.

"This open-air garden is dedicated to Ke Ke, and he lives well here." Huang Shan, who received the two, stood aside and introduced.

It is said that the biological research area is good for experimental animals, instead of keeping them in cages blindly, an open-air garden was built to house them.

Because cocoa is more ferocious, the scientific research institute built an open-air garden for it alone for its use, fearing that it would harm other creatures.

As if sensing someone coming, Ke Ke lying on the lawn opened his eyes and turned his head.

When it saw the person coming, its eyes suddenly lit up, its body twisted and straightened, and it immediately stood up.

Then, the four legs twitched a few steps, and the last one jumped and threw herself on Qin Yuejing's body.

Qin Yuejing was also ready, but he was still staggered by Ke Ke. After standing still, he immediately patted Ke Ke's butt.

"You? Is this? Guy getting fat again?"

Coco pretended not to hear it, it acted like a baby in Qin Yuejing's arms, no matter what, it had to go home today!

Seeing Ke Ke acting coquettishly, Jiang Chengyang suddenly reacted, and couldn't help but wink at Qin Yuejing.

Qin Yuejing was taken aback for a moment, thinking of something, her arms tightened, and she said to Huangshan, "Huangshan, let's take Keke home today."

Huangshan is a bit inexplicable. Didn’t you just go home some time ago, and now you’re going home again?

But Ke was the pet of these two people, so he couldn't say anything, so he nodded immediately: "No problem, it's still the old rules, just make a registration."
