Chapter 251: Solving the Puzzle

At night, Ji Yuning sat alone by the pool and played the flute, and the flute sound was smooth and tactful, which made Su Xiaoting fall into the longing for her loved ones.

There was no word for a night, until the next morning, when everyone had settled their breakfast, and began to wait in silence.

Feeling the uneasiness under everyone's calm appearance, Su Xiaoting became more and more curious in her heart, waiting for the answer to this trip to be revealed.

Ah Tao took an electronic watch and looked at the time for the third time: "Boss, there is still a quarter of an hour, and it will be 8 o'clock!" ”

Ji Yuning nodded and looked at everyone, "That thing has been looking for 5 years, but there is no whereabouts, maybe I have something to think about."

You are all people I trust, and I will tell you the exact location today, and you may find out. ”

He raised his hands: "Boss, the three of us combined, are not half as smart as you." I'll dig a hole for you! ”

The second also advised: "It will always be found." ”

Ji Yuning shook his head: "I just want to know what my father left for me as soon as possible, what's more, we can't bulldoze this place, right?" ”

With that, he got up and walked to the stone pillar, "Come with me!" ”

Su Xiaoting had come to see the stone pillar array yesterday, which was divided into two layers, inside and outside, and surrounded by two circles. Each boulder is about two people tall and more than a meter wide.

The outer ring is like a clock scale, erecting 12 irregular quadrangular boulders, and the inner ring also has 11 similar boulders, which are staggered and discharged with the outer ring, forming two huge circles with a diameter of more than ten meters.

Everyone walked to the stone pillar directly east of the stone pillar, remembering his father's message, Ji Yuning said: "It's not difficult to say, just go north for 9 steps, then 25 steps to the west, and then 5 steps to the north." ”

"And then?" One of them: "Is it buried there?" ”

“…… Father only said that he would naturally know. At 8 o'clock, let's find it according to your own understanding! It's only 1 hour~"

"That's it?" Su Xiaoting wondered, although it was the first time for her to do something similar to a treasure hunt, how could such a clear and clear roadmap not be found after 5 years?

Ji Yuning smiled bitterly, "That's it, all I can think of is that I was only 16 years old at the time, and the distance between my steps might be different." ”

"Boss, there's still 2 minutes left, why don't we try to walk first." Ah Tao reminded.

"Okay."

After 2 minutes, the group returned to the starting point with nothing to be found.

"Let's get started!" After Ji Yuning finished speaking, he took the lead and walked out, he had regarded this behavior as a way to remember his father and communicate with his father in his memory.

The rest of the people glanced at each other and counted their steps out.

1、2、3…… 9. ...... to the west again 23, 24, 25, and then to the right, Su Xiaoting found that there was a stone pillar in front of her.

The position where the last few people stayed was actually quite different, and the second one who walked in the front was 4 or 5 meters away from Su Xiaoting.

"Boss, hasn't this land been dug up before?" one of them.

"It can't be under a stone pillar, can it?" Ah Tao also wondered.

Seeing that there were few people who didn't find anything, Ji Yuning frowned and said, "Do it again!" Still, he took the stone powder and marked a 1 where he stayed.

By the time Ji Yuning drew 6 on the ground, 20 minutes had passed. Ah Tao and the others had already gone to search outside the stone pillar array.

Su Xiaoting walked to Ji Yuning's side: "City Lord, is there still no clue?" ”

Ji Yuning shook his head: "Even if I shrank my steps, I still didn't find anything. And this piece of land has been excavated two years ago. ”

“…… Castle Lord, how tall were you when you were 16? ”

Ji Yuning said: "1.76 meters!" That's a little taller than you are now. ”

Seeing Su Xiaoting standing on tiptoe in the position where he was standing, he looked around, shook his head and said, "I understand what you mean, every time I reach the end, I try!" ”

As the minutes and seconds passed, the two of them each leaned against a stone pillar and fell into thought.

Su Xiaoting picked up a stone, wrote and drew on the ground, and meditated for a long time, but she couldn't figure it out.

'Why does it have to be within an hour?' ’

Su Xiaoting shook her head, stared at the schematic diagram drawn, and suddenly noticed that the line had folded northward twice.

She walked to a few points on the ground that Ji Yuning had marked, and found that most of them were outside the stone pillar circle, and there was no stone pillar to the east.

Why turn north twice when you can only turn once?

Thinking of this, she thought of another possibility: "City Lord, could it be that the last few steps to the north need to be maintained at that height?" ”

Ji Yuning was stunned, "...... Give it a try! ”

Thinking that her height was more convenient than Ji Yuning, Su Xiaoting took the initiative to say, "City Lord, I'll try a few points just now!" ”

"It's okay, thank you for your hard work!"

Ji Yuning watched Su Xiaoting walk to the first point, take 5 steps back to the south, then stand on tiptoe, maintain a height of about 1.76 meters, and then slowly walk back to the marked point facing due north.

Then she turned back and looked regretful, as if she hadn't noticed.

Ji Yuning didn't make a sound to disturb, and watched Su Xiaoting try a few points in the same way.

At the fifth point, Su Xiaoting rubbed her hands and covered her eyes for a moment before striding 5 steps south.

Then he turned around, stood on tiptoe and took another step, looking around for a while with each step. When he took the third step like this, suddenly there was a golden glare on the stone pillar in front of him.

But when she settled, the golden scene disappeared!

Su Xiaoting held her breath and slowly retreated, and the golden light really appeared again, she stretched out her head to look at the light, and found that it was actually emitted from the peak of the mountain on the other side of Tianchi.

"City Lord, come and see!" Su Xiaoting couldn't hold back her excitement and shouted.

Ji Yuning walked quickly, but he couldn't see anything unusual in the direction of Su Xiaoting's finger.

Su Xiaoting looked at the position of the two, and then carefully observed the stone pillar on the right, and suddenly realized.

It turned out that the stone pillar was irregular, and there was a semicircular depression in the half section of the stone pillar, and the golden light happened to shine through from there, as if it was a strange treasure inlaid on the stone pillar.

Just a slight change in viewing angle, the golden light from the summit will be blocked by the stone pillars.

Su Xiaoting stretched out her hand and gestured to the top of her head, "Look from here!" ”

Ji Yuning leaned down as he said, and slowly held his hand.

Like Su Xiaoting, he quickly saw the ingenuity of the stone pillar design, "It turns out ~ that's the case...... Xiaoting, I really don't know how to thank you! ”

At this moment, Ji Yuning was extremely glad to have made the decision to bring Su Xiaoting with him.

Ah Tao and the others had already gathered around when they heard the commotion, and they all asked what they had discovered.

Ji Yuning took a few steps back and walked north again, "It turned out that it wasn't my father's old suspicions, as long as I could have found it a few years earlier~"

Unfortunately, he didn't come here for the first time until he was 21 years old, and it was two years just in time for the rainy weather, and he didn't expect his father to put it on the peak.
