Chapter 21 Accumulation of Information
Socrates gave a summary of their exploration.
"This maze doesn't seem to be cracked like this, the last time I came here, I was already short of time, I just hurriedly groped for a while, and found out the characteristics of this maze and left, this time, I kind of understood, this maze is not a time to grind through."
Su Yun asked, "Then how should we crack this maze?" Do you have a clue? ”
Socrates said: "Not yet, but I hope you can use your infinite backtracking ability to crack this labyrinth, theoretically, with your natural ability, combined with my analytical ability, there is no problem in solving all the floors of this entire building in one day." ”
Su Yun thought about it, too.
His natural ability can accumulate the advantage of infinite amount of information, and he is afraid of encountering puzzle-solving scenarios that he can't crack and can't even think of, but Socrates can make up for this shortcoming.
Socrates said: "I don't really care about the victory of this Octagon Wisdom Game, I already have a way to absolutely promote to the fourth order, after this Octagon Wisdom Game is over, I can be promoted to the fourth order, the main purpose of my visit this time is to prevent the country of chaos from producing another Nine Qing." ”
"I see, I'm not going to let the rest of the day get away with it."
"It's not just Tianyu, I suspect that Moriarty seems to have a problem too, he is very likely to be the shadow son of the country of chaos, but all my abilities are sealed now, and I can't verify my conjecture."
"Why would you doubt Moriarty?" Su Yun asked.
"Intuition. I think there's something wrong with his behavior. Socrates said.
Su Yun nodded, keeping a heart in his heart.
After another while, Su Yun suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, his eyes turned black, and then he fell to the ground and lost consciousness.
This is what he had previously done to his point.
The fourth reincarnation.
When Su Yun woke up, he was already lying on the bed in the bedroom again.
He got out of bed, and this time, instead of smashing the window, he went straight to the door and entered the code.
Su Yun walked out of the door and saw that Ora on the other side of the door also came out and sat at the door.
After coming out of the room, the first thing Su Yun did was to come to Socrates' door, wait for a while, and start knocking.
"Knock knock knock."
"Knock knock."
"Knock knock knock."
"Knock knock."
Su Yun knocked on the door in such a rhythmic manner as promised.
Inside, without much pause, the lock opened more than ten seconds after he knocked on the door.
Socrates walked out of the door and looked at Su Yun outside the door with a rather surprised expression.
Su Yun showed a professional smile, stretched out his hand and said, "Hello Mr. Protagonist, Prophet, at your service!" ”
Socrates looked stunned and asked, "How did you know the code to my door?" ”
Su Yun smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't forget, I'm a prophet. ”
"Okay." Socrates shrugged helplessly and said, "Can you prophesy something else, then?" ”
"I can directly find the space secret passage on the second floor and step directly into the third floor, well, we can probably stay on the third floor for nearly two hours."
Socrates said with a fluttering eyebrow: "The prophet god took me to fly? ”
"I can't talk about it, my puzzle-solving and reasoning skills are average, and I have to rely on your help later." Su Yun said truthfully.
"It's an honor." Socrates bowed slightly to Su Yun.
When Su Yun and Socrates were talking, Zhou Yi walked out of the room next to him and saw Su Yun and Socrates at the door, who were coming up to sell their services, but Socrates just glanced at him and went downstairs with Su Yun.
As soon as he reached the second floor, Su Yun immediately said to Socrates: "Prepare to make fire!" ”
He didn't say how to make a fire, nor did he say why he wanted to make a fire, so he gave this instruction directly to Socrates, and he himself stood guard at the door of the stairwell.
He knows that when talking to smart people, you don't need to go into too much detail, and that mother-in-law and mother-in-law talk a lot, which is sometimes an insult to them.
After a while, there was a noise outside the stairwell, and a bedside table flew in, and then Zhou Yi ran in with his shoulders covered.
Su Yun grabbed Zhou Yi and said, "Master Zhou, I have something I want to ask. ”
Zhou Yi suddenly changed his face and said flatteringly: "What kind of service do you want, guest officer?" ”
"Fortune telling."
"What?"
"Tell you later, can you go down to the third floor with us? You won't be able to go back upstairs anyway. ”
"You're right." Zhou Yi nodded and said.
At the same time, Socrates walked out of the library, and Su Yun could already faintly smell the smell of burning.
Su Yun did not confirm with Socrates how he caused the fire, he knew that the other party must have handled the things handed over to Socrates more reliably than he did by himself.
Su Yun led Socrates to the wall he remembered and stretched out his hand.
His hand touched the wall.
He tried to grope his hand along the wall little by little, but found nothing, Su Yun did not give up, repeatedly groped the area, and soon, he groped for a slightly obvious groove.
If you don't caress the area very carefully and repeatedly, it's probably easy to overlook.
Su Yun thought about it, it seemed quite reasonable that the secret passage was so hidden, otherwise the explorers could completely grope their way along the wall inch by inch to try their luck, and there would be no need for the previous puzzle-solving process.
Su Yun pressed his hand towards the groove, and sure enough, his body instantly penetrated the wall and entered an unknown space.
Socrates, who was holding his arm behind him, and Zhou Yi also entered this unknown space together.
Su Yun walked along this road all the way, the process was very wonderful, he felt like a train walking on the tracks, unable to turn back, unable to turn, could only walk along the established track, not even the concept of left and right, only the concept of front and back.
This is probably what Socrates called two-dimensionalization, although it is not really two-dimensional, but the space forms a peculiar distortion here, creating a pseudo-two-dimensional situation.
He didn't think much about it, he walked along the road all the way, and after walking for about a few hundred meters, his eyes suddenly opened up, the light rose on the horizon, and he came to the hidden stairwell on the second floor.
Su Yun walked straight down the stairs, from here, the speed of time has reached three times, if you don't hurry up, then the six hours of exploration time a day will be used up in minutes.
As soon as Su Yun got downstairs, he asked Zhou Yi, "How did you get to the middle stairs?" ”
Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his finger and counted slightly, and walked into the maze.
Su Yun and Socrates followed closely behind, moving all the way through the maze, Su Yun secretly memorized the route taken by Zhou Yi, and it was not very difficult to memorize the route, as long as he remembered how many degrees he turned and how many steps he walked.
Su Yun simplified this route information and memorized it easily.
After walking for about a while, Zhou Yi slammed his head into the transparent barrier in front of him, screaming in pain.
Su Yun asked, "Master Zhou Yi, why don't you show the way?" ”
Zhou Yi covered his face and said, "I just calculated that I should have walked here, but as a result, the result was ......"
"It doesn't work out, does it?"
"Yes, yes, it's weird."
Su Yun touched his chin and said, "I remember what you said, fortune telling is not allowed without money, you ...... now"
Zhou Yi suddenly jumped up like a monkey: "You don't want to repay the debt, let me tell you, I have no problem, this maze is clearly a multi-stage problem, you can't use a fortune telling to calculate the result, you are obviously cheating me, anyway, I don't count, you like to find whoever you like." ”
Su Yun said secretly: This Zhou Yi, even if he goes crazy, his mind is still as clear when he calculates the accounts.
Socrates, who was standing behind Su Yun, suddenly spoke: "Then you can count it for me, his times and mine times are always separated." How do we get from where we are to get to the middle staircase? ”
Zhou Yi suddenly came to his senses, took out his fingers and calculated, and led the way forward.
Su Yun thought to himself, if this Zhou Yi hadn't gone crazy, it would be easy to crack this third-layer labyrinth!
Zhou Yi took them for another while, but soon, he hit an invisible barrier again, Socrates stood next to Su Yun, spread his hands helplessly, and said, "I can't do anything about it, let's grope our way forward." ”
Su Yun shook his head and said, "No." ”
Immediately afterwards, he stretched out his hand and slammed it heavily on his death hole with the technique of pointing.
Go back in time.
The fourth reincarnation.
Su Yun carried out his plan step by step, and when he reappeared on the third floor with Socrates and Zhou Yi, he did not immediately ask Zhou Yi for a way to solve the maze, but followed his memory and walked towards the route of his memory.
In the previous steps, he had tried to be as consistent as possible, that is, he controlled the timing of the three people to reach the third floor, so that the labyrinth was in the kind of state he knew.
