Chapter 120: The Meaning of Symbols

I walked around the rockery, and didn't find anything like an entrance, I looked at the marks on the rockery and fell into thought, this group of symbols is the same as the symbol in the inner circle of the ring, but it is certainly not to indicate the location, otherwise it is equivalent to giving a photo of a leaf, and then asking the other party to take the photo to find the tree in the forest.

Cheng Weihai's father made a very clever game, because he would not do this kind of confusing behavior, and the success rate of this way of finding is really low, so this group of symbols must have some other meaning, but I haven't thought of it for the time being.

Before I could clear my mind, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind me, and before I could turn around, I heard Kiko shout dissatisfiedly, "What the hell is going on with you?" Suddenly let me work, forget it, and still don't let me eat after work? ”

"I'll invite you to come down to the restaurant later, and come over first to see this, is it the same as the set of symbols in the inner ring of the ring?" I shouted casually without looking back, and as soon as I finished speaking, someone walked up to me, and I looked up and was stunned, it wasn't Kiko but Liu Jie!

Liu Jie looked very excited, and asked while looking at the rockery, "Where is the symbol?" What is it for? Are you having another interesting encounter? ”

"How did you get out? Don't go to class? I pretended not to hear and casually diverted the subject, but when I turned around, I saw Kiko spread out her hand and made a "don't blame me for your own leaks" expression.

"It's summer vacation, we just came to Mr. Zhang for tutoring, just talk about it if we want to go," Liu Jie explained absentmindedly, and continued to ask without waiting for me to speak: "Where are the symbols you are talking about?" I've been working on semiotics lately, and I might be able to help you! ”

"Really?" I was stunned at first, and then I was happy, and someone sent a pillow when I was really sleepy, I was wondering what the meaning of this group of symbols was, but I didn't expect that someone who studied semiotics would be sent to the door so soon!

"Of course it's true!" Liu Jie looked proud, and then smiled embarrassedly: "But I have just started researching recently, and I may not know much about it, so let's take a look first." ”

"No matter how little you know, you must be better than me!" I muttered in my heart and pointed out the position of the group of symbols to Liu Jie, who squatted down and looked at it carefully for a while before shaking her head.

"Didn't recognize it?" I asked tentatively.

"No," Liu Jie shook her head again: "It's meaningless." ”

"What do you mean?" I was stunned for a moment, how could this set of symbols appear in such a strange place, how could it not be meaningful?

Liu Jie thought for a while, and explained like an endorsement: "Ordinary symbols are like logos, which are combined or simplified from words, letters, and graphics, and through the elements that make up the symbols, we can reverse analyze the meaning represented by this symbol, and there is also a special kind of symbol, which is completely imagined by the creator out of thin air, although it is out of conventional logic, but as long as you use your heart, you can still analyze it." ”

I was confused: "So what? What do you mean by this set of symbols? ”

Liu Jie gave me an idiot look, paused for a while and continued: "The symbols that form a system are like words, in a symbol there will be more than one element that indicates or hints at the meaning of the symbol, but this group of symbols is too simple, several circles with openings in different positions, if I have to analyze it...... It may be instructions for use of the oven. ”

"Why did the oven pop up again?" The more I listened, the more confused I became, and Kiko also had a completely confused expression.

"Because those symbols are very similar to the knobs of an oven," Liu Jie pointed to the position of the symbols and said: "If there is only one symbol, it may be used to mark the direction or time, but there are so many symbols here, all I can think of is the oven, adjusting the time, the temperature of the upper tube, the temperature of the lower tube, and so on." ”

"Sounds reasonable, but I guess it has nothing to do with the oven, right?" Kiko said with a complicated expression, I didn't join their discussion, Liu Jie's words just now brought me a hint of inspiration, but the feeling is very vague, a little relaxation may disappear, I have to think clearly while I can still see the outline.

After a while, Kiko and Liu Jie began to study whether the group of symbols would be the knobs of the microwave oven, the more I listened to it, the more wrong it tasted, so I simply went around to the back of the rockery so as not to be disturbed by them, pondering the vague premonition in my mind, my eyes inadvertently swept around the rockery, and suddenly noticed that at the bottom of the rockery near the ground, three finger-thick cracks formed the shape of an arrow.

The two cracks on the left and right are nothing special when you look at them separately, the crack in the middle has two relatively smooth parts, one wide and one narrow, as if it is used to place something, and look at the opposite side in the direction of the arrow, which is the window of Mr. Zhang's living room, to be precise, pointing to the extra wall in the living room!

Symbols, arrows, knobs.

Three key words flashed through my mind, and the vague thought before instantly became clear!

"I know what's going on, go back first, and come back in the evening." I went back to the rockery and said to Kiko, and then waved my hand to interrupt Liu Jie, who was about to speak: "The things here have nothing to do with you, take a good class, I'm really interested and I'll tell you when it's over." ”

After speaking, no matter what Liu Jie's reaction was, I picked up Kiko and walked to the door of the community, and on the way back to the store, I sent a text message to Liu Yunsheng, telling him that I had found the location of the treasure, and asked him and Hao Jian to go back to the store first.

When I arrived at the door of the store, Liu Yunsheng and the others had just arrived, Hao Jian parked the car on the side of the road with a foot of the brake, jumped out and couldn't wait to ask before he could stand firmly: "Where is it!" Where's the treasure? ”

"Be quiet! Do you want to make the city stormy! I scolded them in a low voice, beckoned them into the store, and then pretended to be mysterious: "Hurry up and prepare the backpack, prepare as much as you want, and then take a good rest to recuperate, and take you to a long time tonight!" ”

Taking advantage of the time when Hao Jian and they were preparing the backpack, I found a piece of paper and wrote out the rough description of what I saw in my dream, afraid that Feng Ah would recognize my handwriting and let Kiko copy it again, and then brewed a pot of tea and poured it on the paper, put it in the sun to dry and then pour the tea again, and so repeated three or four times, the white paper became a yellowish color, and then folded it and threw it on the ground to step on a few feet, it looked like it had been placed for a long time.

This is the simplest way to make paper products, and it is also the easiest to be exposed, because the color of the tea will only stay on the surface of the paper, as long as the paper is torn apart, you can see that the large paper core is still white, but I think that after the other party sees the content on the paper, he must not have the heart to study whether the letter is true or false, so it is enough to do this.
