Chapter 161: Cracking the Secret
Time is getting tighter and shorter, and the roar of the soul beast hitting the gate of the City Lord's Mansion is not coming. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Lin Tian looked at the simple lines of those people and pondered, "Do you have any opinions?"
Lin Yun, who was standing on the side, smiled bitterly: "I can't think of it in my head, although these are just a few horizontal and vertical lines that are so simple that they can't be simpler, but what does the hole under this mean?" Did you put all the stone balls that my mother found in? ”
"Big brother, you're right this time." Lin Yun's words did remind a few people present, and Lin Tian pondered, "Now I just don't understand how many stone balls are placed in this stone cave, and if we put them wrong, it will cause irreparable consequences." ”
Yu Fei's face was like water, and she said, "I thought that the stone ball must have something to do with the intersection of this line.
"No, if the number of intersections is really related to the number of stone balls, I wonder if you have carefully counted the intersections of several lines on the stone gate There are a total of thirty-six, and the stone balls are only twenty-seven?" Hearing Yu Fei's guess, Xiuyun immediately asked suspiciously.
Lin Tian shook his head and thought for a while before he spoke: "What Miss Yufei said makes sense, and what my mother said makes sense, but I guess that there must be some kind of relationship between the intersections of the lines on this stone gate to match the number of stone balls, but now I can't think of it so deep for a while."
Yu Fei wondered, "Could it be that some stone balls here were originally stolen or damaged?"
"It's unlikely that it's damaged, I don't have any other spherical debris in this rubble, and if it does, it should leave some debris behind." Xiuyun frowned and said softly.
Lin Tian smiled bitterly: "No matter how much, now let's first study what the pattern on this stone gate represents, even if it is wrong, it is better than being eaten by a soul beast."
Immediately said the thought he had been thinking about for a long time just now, he frowned, and said: "I think the five stone caves under this pattern should be for us to put stone balls, and the number of stone balls in each stone cave may be different," Speaking of this, he stretched out his finger and pointed to the three points in the upper left corner and the bottom right corner and said, "This should be the number of stone balls at the beginning and end, and they are all three, why are there three stone balls, you look carefully, the vertical lines on the far left are close together, The three horizontal lines in the bottom right corner are also close together, and their number should be the same. ”
Lin Yun immediately asked, "Even if the number of them is the same, what about the number of the three stone caves in the middle?"
Lin Tian smiled and said, "You guys carefully analyze the distribution of the intersection points in the middle, if I'm not mistaken, they should be like this." Picking up a small stone, he drew a diagonal line on the top two dots in the middle, connecting the two dots in the middle of the top and the six dots where the three vertical lines intersected, and said, "They should represent the number of stone balls." He casually connected the two points on the far right and the intersection of the three horizontal lines and the two vertical lines, which should be the same as eight.
After doing this, he let out a long sigh and said, "The rest should be the number of stone balls in the middle stone cave, but I'm very confused, can there be more than a dozen stone balls in this middle stone cave?"
Yu Fei saw that what he said was the Tao, and she also had some recognition in her heart, but she still didn't feel at ease and said: "According to what you said, there may be fourteen stone balls in the middle, I think this is a bit impossible, I took a look at it just now, there are at most ten balls in the stone cave under this pattern, and no more can be placed."
Lin Tian smiled bitterly: "This is also where I am confused, if I am not wrong, the number of stone balls I just said has been on the same level as the number dug up by my mother." There are twenty-six stone balls in total. After speaking, he focused his eyes on Xiuyun, and then several people in the cave looked at Xiuyun.
Xiuyun also wanted to tell them that it was indeed twenty-six stone balls, but she couldn't panic, she had counted them several times just now, and they were all twenty-seven stone balls, one more than what Lin Tian said.
She opened her mouth slightly, revealing a wry smile, and said, "There are twenty-seven stone balls in total."
"How can there be one more?" Lin Tian, who was full of confidence for a while, was surprised, "Is there something wrong with my algorithm?" But what's the problem? ”
For a while, everyone in the cave fell into deep thought, all of them were searching their stomachs and thinking, how to crack the secret in this pattern?
Suddenly, Xiuyun said loudly: "Yu'er, how many are the middle ones just now?"
"Fourteen? What's wrong? Lin Tian asked casually.
Xiuyun smiled, smiled happily, and said, "This time it's really thanks to the innkeeper."
A few people who were pondering still didn't understand what she meant, Lin Yun hurriedly said, "Mother, just say it, what did you think of?"
Xiuyun glanced at him and said with a smile: "In the past, when Lin Yu went up the mountain to look for you, I was bored in the inn alone and chatted with the shopkeeper of the inn, once I saw him playing with some small beads, and he was still talking about what ten into one, I think the fourteen stone balls that Xiaoyu said just now, if we replace the ten balls of the fourteen stone balls with one, and push this one into the stone cave in front of it, it will be exactly twenty-seven stone balls?"
A few people in the cave, you look at me, I look at you, no one spoke immediately, they were all thinking about Xiuyun's words.
At this moment, Xin'er rushed over, covered in blood, and said hurriedly: "Oh no, the gate of the City Lord's Mansion outside is broken, and countless soul beasts are rushing here."
Lin Tianyi gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's give it a go, take the stone ball!"
Lin Yun, who was standing aside, immediately handed him a stone ball and said, "Do you really want to put it according to my mother's speculation?"
Xiuyun was also a little anxious, "I also heard it casually, but I can't take it seriously!" ”
Lin Tian smiled: "Mother, I believe you!"
In just four words, I believe you, mother, listened to Xiuyun's ears and warmed her heart, and then tears blurred her eyes.
The matter was urgent, and there was no extra time to meditate anymore, Lin Tian hurriedly said: "Big brother, let's put the stone balls at the beginning and end into it first, and finally fill in the stone cave in the middle!"
In this way, the two of them quickly filled in the first and last two stone caves, and as the three stone balls entered the hole, there was a very crisp sound of mechanism.
Listening to the crisp rumbling sound, Yu Fei's heart was staring at the stone door pattern, and her big eyes didn't blink, for fear of missing something.
Suddenly she shouted, "Look!"
Several people looked in the direction of her finger, and saw that the intersection of the original only a few lines, the upper left corner and the bottom right corner, the three intersections that were close together, were all shining with cyan light.
Lin Tian was overjoyed and said, "It seems that my statement is still correct."
Yu Fei and Lin Yun both nodded at him, and just as he was about to take the stone ball and put it into the second stone cave on the right and left, Lin Feng, who had not spoken, took his hand and said, "Don't put it yet, I think you should put the stone ball in the middle, which just proves Xiuyun's guess."
Lin Tian thought about it, and finally nodded, picked up the stone balls and put them in one after another, until the fourth stone ball entered the hole, and there was a rumbling sound of the mechanism coming from the stone door.
Lin Tian was overjoyed, listening to the crisp voice, he knew that his mother might be right.
Xiuyun was also excited, she could finally help her son, not to mention how happy she was in her heart.
The other three were also excited, and they all urged Lin Tian to continue to release the stone balls.
Then Lin Tian stuffed eight stone balls into the penultimate stone cave, and the crisp sound of the same mechanism came out.
"Gollum!"
He looked at the last nine stone balls, and his palms began to sweat, although the previous ones were correct, but if this sound was deliberate by the owner of the City Lord's Mansion, it would be troublesome, looking at the intersection that was lit up by most of the time.
Everyone held their breath, they didn't dare to take a breath, they all stared at the last stone ball tightly, Lin Tian took a deep breath, nodded at Yu Fei, and stuffed all the stone balls into it.
