Chapter 9: Puzzles

Nordic people seem to be always full of romance for life, and most people are like children, maintaining awe and yearning for myths. But this may also be biased. People here have a sense of reverence for history, whether it's old buildings, old myths, or real history that has been written in books.

There were 12 people in an old building, clearly historic, with a room modeled in the style of the Middle Ages, modern objects blended in, 12 people in the room, a sofa sat a couple of young men in their twenties, one leaned against the windowsill with a cup of coffee, a girl walked around the room with a book in hand, and some sat around the fireless fire, all with different looks, each looking at something they were interested in, but the topic was surprisingly consistent.

"Hey, the computer shows that the card has been taken. The young man with a pair of glasses glanced out the window and took a sip of coffee.

The girl with the book was still looking at the book intently, but she could respond distractedly: "That's great, I thought no one would be able to take the card this year, I hope they can find it eventually." ”

One of the older people, about thirty years old, who were sitting around the fire playing cards, glanced at their card-playing companions and said, "I don't know which clever kid it will be, but I think next time we should write graffiti in a different place, the church guys are not always so good-natured." ”

"Come on, I think I'll have to replace you next time, who can see that you write so small every time? "The man who played a bad hand was a little angry.

"Oh, my old fellow, your cards stink. The man smiled exaggeratedly, then withdrew his laugh in the latter's unfriendly eyes, and said, "Then let's guess how long it will take them to solve this puzzle?"

"Hmm...... Three days?"

"Or, really wait until October 23rd, oh, that's a long time. ”

As they spoke, the group laughed at each other and said these words, this time in some professional or archaic language, which I really couldn't understand. At this moment, everyone laughed again: the room was filled with cheerful air.

……

Back at the hotel, the little black ball floated beside Ye Yan, who sat on the bed, looking at the bronzing card he got from the alley, which read, "When the balance of the world is gone, the deep sea is shrouded in towering spires, and the clock is engraved with memories of the past, taking away the beauty of the remnants of brilliance." Obviously, there are only three things that need to be decoded in these few sentences: time, place, and object.

Ye Yanjian's eyebrows frowned, he was already stuck on the sentence "when the world is out of balance": he didn't have any thoughts.

If the loss of balance is understood as the loss of the scale, then it is clear that after the balance has passed, there is a scorpion, and the first day of the scorpion, one of the solutions, is October 23.

Another solution, if it is understood as the trajectory of the sun, then when the balance is lost, that is, the day is past noon, that is, the afternoon is a large area, even including the evening.

Su Yan also frowned and said, "Perhaps, we can't understand its meaning individually?"

Suddenly, Ye Yan's eyes lit up, and a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind, like a thread, stringing together all the puzzles: he was too focused on a certain point, but ignored the overall situation and fell behind.

This notice letter must not be understood individually, otherwise it will definitely be surrounded by clouds and fog, making people plausible, and finally 108,000 miles away from the correct answer.

"I'm so in love with you clever little goblin. Ye Yan smiled slightly and said, "Actually, the first sentence is not a special day, but all the same points in time for a period of time. ”

Su Yanqiao's face blushed slightly: "What's that?"

Ye Yan is quite complacent: "The paint on the walls of the church does not last long, the paint is probably enough to be erased in less than a month after being exposed to the wind and sun, and if it rains, the life span will be even shorter." Therefore, the author of the question will never extend to a certain distant day, otherwise he will not use this kind of paint. So this time is about the same as the life of the paint. ”

"Uh-huh. Su Yan already understood a little.

Ye Yan stood up, looked out the window, and raised his head slightly: "When the balance of the world is no longer there, it actually means that the sun has passed noon." The second sentence of the deep sea shrouds the towering spire, in fact, it is about the emerald shrouded in blue sunset in the evening - this is the characteristic of Emerald Filipino. ”

Then the rest is easy to understand. Su Yan tilted his head and said, "The spire is not a separate location, and the clock is not a separate object, these two simply point to the bell tower." ”

"Yes, so the time and place can be basically determined, the evening Emerald Chotor bell tower. After Ye Yan finished speaking, he was silent for a while, and then frowned slightly, "But the last sentence, take away the beauty that remains of the brilliance, how should this sentence be understood? And we don't know where to go at that point in time and observe which position to find the final answer." ”

Su Yan also nodded: "Then it seems that there is only a stupid way, when we are four o'clock, we will go to the Chotor Bell Tower to guard, and he should still have our deadline left, we can still think slowly, it's a big deal to go and look around every evening, and we can always find something." ”

"Well, that's all there is to it. Ye Yan casually threw the card on the table, he had already observed it with Eagle Eye, there was no hidden information on it at all, otherwise Eagle Eye would have highlighted it.

At noon, I had a meal of prawns with Su Yan at the restaurant below. Basically, the food here was not enough to fill the bellies of the two of them, the portion was very small, but it was only a delicate protrusion, so the two of them ordered another tomahawk steak, and the meat was sufficient: it was barely enough to fill the stomachs.

Time is passing bit by bit, Ye Yan has never had a good explanation for the last sentence, because he is not a resident of this place, he knows nothing about Fei Lengcui, this kind of puzzle with obvious regional characteristics is undoubtedly more difficult for him.

Ye Yan sat in front of the window, with a pair of eyes as sharp as an eagle, looking at the Fei Leng Cui in the distance, the clock tower stood opposite him, his heart was full of thoughts, he was willing to challenge, and the system issued a task, he had no reason not to complete it.

But aside from these, this puzzle is undoubtedly difficult, which makes him quite interesting and arouses his competitive mentality, no matter who comes up with this puzzle, and no matter what they want to do, Ye Yan is not afraid, and is full of belief in victory.

In this game, he must be the one who wins.
