PS: Today's first update, ask for monthly pass support.

Of course, for others, it is indeed difficult to crack this password. After all, there are more than 10 million combinations of sequences, and I don't know when I will be able to hit the luck open.

However, this kind of problem is in the hands of Wang Guan, and it is only a small problem. And since he had already shown his magical ability, he didn't plan to hide anything, so he looked at the cipher cylinder for a moment and immediately used his special ability.

In an instant, the ability qi machine penetrated into the inside of the metal cylinder, but it allowed the king to see it clearly and thoroughly. At the same time, his brows furrowed, there was indeed something in the tube, and judging from the slightly purple and yellow treasure light, the thing also had a relatively long history. But after a closer look, Wang Guan couldn't help but shake his head......

"What, there's something wrong with something?"

Seeing this situation, Fang Mingsheng must have been a little anxious, and hurriedly asked, "It's hard to crack?" ”

"No, my neck is tired, move a little." Wang Guan's explanation made Fang Mingsheng speechless for a while, and then he saw Wang Guan's fingers spinning on the turntable of the cipher cylinder at will.

For a while, Fang Mingsheng couldn't care about anything else, he couldn't take his eyes off the turntable, and his mood also fluctuated, up and down, and he couldn't settle down at all.

Time passed minute by minute, and Fang Mingsheng suddenly had the illusion that his days were like years. It was indeed an illusion, because only four or five minutes had passed, Wang Guan's eyes suddenly closed, and when he opened them again, he easily returned the password cylinder to Fang Mingsheng.

"Uh, can't you open it?" Fang Mingsheng was naturally stunned.

Wang Guan raised his glass and took a sip of tea, and said casually: "It's already opened." ”

"Ah......h

Fang Mingsheng was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly twisted the lid of the box, and found that the cylinder was opened very smoothly, and then dragged out a glass bottle with a hollow metal strip. There was some liquid in the glass bottle, I don't know if it was vinegar, or sulfuric acid.

But. At this moment, Fang Mingsheng didn't bother to pay attention to this primitive and rudimentary self-destruct device, but picked it up in the tube. A moment later, he pulled out a thin piece of animal skin, probably parchment common in ancient Western times.

"What is this?"

When he opened the parchment, Fang Mingsheng was dumbfounded. I saw that there was a letter on the paper, it should be a line of text, but as for the meaning of the text, he couldn't figure it out at all.

"Huh."

Wang Guan said curiously: "Boss Fang, don't you know English?" Do you know how to speak or write......?"

This is also normal. Since there are people who can write and can't say, then naturally there are people who can say and can't write. After all, it is definitely more difficult to "write" than to "speak". Just like a child, at the beginning, he must know how to speak first, and then slowly learn to write and write when he grows up.

"Yes."

Fang Mingsheng nodded and acknowledged, and after thinking about it, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled: "But it doesn't matter, there is a translator." ”

Hear this. Wang Guan thought that the translation he said meant aftertaste, but he didn't expect that people were more advanced, so he searched directly on the Internet. And there is a computer in the room, not Baidu and Google.

A series of letters are typed in. Then a press enter key and immediately a row of search results comes out. The problem was that the whole line was in English, and the two studied it for a while. looked at each other and felt that they had miscalculated.

"Ahem, you don't have to bother like that."

At the same time, Wang Guancai reacted: "Doesn't the mobile phone have translation software?" Translating one word at a time, and then combining them all, you should be able to guess what it means. ”

"Good idea." Fang Mingsheng praised and immediately took action, but the result was once again unexpected by the two.

"Why don't you show the translation results?"

After a while, Fang Mingsheng said inexplicably: "The translation software is broken?" ”

"Not really."

Wang Guan was surprised: "Then try it with my mobile phone......"

However, the result of the attempt was exactly the same, but the two people were stunned and immediately realized that something was wrong. If there is a problem with one mobile phone software, it is indeed unlikely that there are problems with both mobile phones now.

Thinking of this, Wang Guan directly cleared the words on the parchment, and entered a simple letter, and immediately a row of detailed words appeared, proving that the translation software was working normally. From this, we can also know that the key to the problem is the words on the parchment, I don't know if it is a writing error, or if it is not right in itself?

At the same time, Wang Guan also thought of a possibility: "Could these words not be English?" ”

It is not impossible, in Wang Guan's impression, most of the characters in Western countries are arranged in letters, so it looks like English letters, not necessarily English.

"Wait, I'll ask somebody." Fang Mingsheng frowned, and immediately sent a text message. Soon after, someone called him directly, as if to tell him the details of the word.

"What, Old English?"

For a moment, Fang Mingsheng was stunned: "Ancient English? ”

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Wang Guan was also stunned for a moment, but then he suddenly realized. It's normal to think about it, just as there is a difference between ancient Chinese and modern writing, then ancient English and modern English must also be different.

As society develops, things naturally change, which is a very normal situation. On the contrary, Fang Mingsheng should also be happy, after all, this can be regarded as an indirect confirmation of the age of the thing, not something forged by modern people.

Thinking of this, Fang Mingsheng was indeed a little happy, but then his brows furrowed again.

After ending the communication, Fang Mingsheng frowned and said, "Wang Guan, things are not easy to do. The teacher who called me just now was the teacher who taught me English, and he saw that it was old English, and as for what it meant, he couldn't say, so he needed to find another expert to identify. ”

"So complicated?" Wang Guan was a little surprised: "Even if there is a difference, it should be the difference between traditional Chinese characters and simplified characters, and it shouldn't be too big." ”

"It's not that simple." Fang Mingsheng smiled bitterly: "He just said that ancient English and modern English are very different in terms of pronunciation, spelling, vocabulary and grammar. The grammar of Old English is similar to that of German, and the morphological changes are complex. ”

And Old English is not just a general division between ancient and modern, in fact, there is a distinction between Old English, Middle English, and Modern English. Each period has different changes, and there are great differences before and after. ”

Fang Mingsheng shook his head and said, "In short, it's very complicated, and it takes a specialized scholar to understand it." ”

"In that case, then you can ask an expert to help you take a look." Wang Guan suggested.

"But ......"

Fang Mingsheng was a little hesitant, the thing was hidden in a tight cipher tube, which was enough to show the preciousness of the thing, of course he was unwilling to leak it casually.

"Break it down, one word at a time, for different people to recognize." Wang Guan said casually, this is the most common method of secrecy.

"No."

However, Fang Mingsheng continued to sigh: "What vowels and consonants are in Old English, and what are the loanwords, sometimes you need to connect with the context to be able to grasp its semantic......

In this regard, Wang Guan also understood and nodded, this is like ancient Chinese classical Chinese, looking at a single word, you can also understand it, and know how to pronounce this word. However, if you don't read the annotations, you may misunderstand and misinterpret the original meaning of others.

But in this way, it was a little difficult, no wonder Fang Mingsheng hesitated.

"And what are you going to do?" Wang Guan scratched his head and said, "Do your own research and learn ancient English hard?" ”

"How could it be ......"

Fang Mingsheng was speechless, he would only do this when his brain was in water.

Of course, Wang Guan was just joking, and then reminded: "Boss Fang, in fact, I think you think you think too much." This piece of parchment is just a sentence, and I think it's probably a will, important information, and the like. Time has passed, and it should be of little value now, so why should you be afraid of others knowing. ”

"Uh......"

Fang Mingsheng frowned and thought about it, and had to admit that Wang Guan had a point, and at the same time sighed lightly: "In this way, it is indeed my mistake to gamble and buy this thing for nothing." ”

"I can't say that, at least this Da Vinci cipher is still worth some money." Wang Guan comforted, but there was not much sincerity in his tone. Mainly considering Fang Mingsheng's net worth, the money for taking pictures is equivalent to a drop in the bucket, which is insignificant, and there is no need to pity him at all.

"I'll think about it again......" Fang Mingsheng thought for a moment and muttered: "It's a big deal to stuff things back, and then pretend that you can't crack the password, and then sell things to others, maybe you can make a fortune." ”

"Profiteers!"

Now it was Wang Guan's turn to be speechless.

"Don't disturb your rest."

At the right time, Fang Mingsheng also put this matter behind him, and said with a smile: "Get up early tomorrow, let's hurry up, and maybe we can catch up with Mr. Hill's lunch." ”

After two sentences, Fang Mingsheng left, but looking at the back, he felt depressed. This is also human nature, when encountering such a thing, no matter how free and easy a person is, he will be a little depressed.

Wang Guan shook his head at this, at the beginning, he didn't have much hope, and now he is naturally not disappointed. After sending Fang Mingsheng away, he took out an antique appreciation book in his duffel bag and flipped through it for a long time, feeling a little sleepy, so he turned off the light and went to sleep.

After a night of silence, the next morning, the two said goodbye to the aftertaste and took the train directly to the southeast.

The destination place Mingsheng said, but it was English, but Wang Guan couldn't remember, but he knew that it was close to the sea, the climate was very mild, the geographical location was superior, and it was a good place to make people feel happy.

Wang Guan was noncommittal, and he didn't know until the place was good or not. As for now, breakfast is available on the train, and he doesn't treat himself badly, he just orders one and enjoys it slowly.

Of course, Wang Guan still understood the basic etiquette, and he didn't forget to ask the waiter to bring Fang Mingsheng a breakfast, but he didn't seem to have any appetite, and kept fiddling with his mobile phone.

"Why, don't you give up?"

Wang Guan glanced at it and found that Fang Mingsheng was landing on a seemingly professional website, the pages were full of dense English, thinking about what happened last night, he knew more or less what Fang Mingsheng was doing. (To be continued......)
