I looked at his serious appearance and couldn't help but ask, "Xia Cheng, how is it, have you found anything?" ”

"Not yet, but I think there must be some meaning to these patterns, but I haven't figured it out yet."

In this way, we looked at the carving in front of us and thought deeply.

"Could it be that this carving has any other meaning?" Zhao Yuyu looked at the carving in front of him and said.

Originally, there was nothing to make a fuss about the carvings of some plants on the ground, but it is doubtful that such a beautiful carving would be covered by heavy dust.

Lin Yun walked in and carefully inspected the patterns on the ground, there were four identical circles carved on the ground, and each circle was carved with different flowers.

"It's a rose." Lin Yun said, and then she walked to the other side and said, "The lotus flowers are carved here. ”

"And what kind of flowers are these two over here?" Cui Li pointed to two other places and said.

"That's osmanthus and plum." Lin Yun glanced at it and said.

"What do these flowers mean? What is the connection with this labyrinth? I asked.

"I don't know, I don't know what message these flowers are trying to convey." Lin Yun said puzzled.

"It's words, doesn't every flower have its own words?" Zhao Yuyu prompted.

"But the flower language of these flowers has no connection at all, and it shouldn't be the key to the puzzle." Lin Yun denied Zhao Yuyu's idea.

If it has nothing to do with the flower language of these flowers, what kind of message do these words convey? I had absolutely no idea how to be good.

"After working for a long time, this has nothing to do with the entrance of the maze, so where is the entrance?" Cui Li said with obvious despair.

We don't know where the entrance is, so we can only look for it at will, but we have found almost nothing else, so all the clues are in front of us.

The entrance in the shape of the Big Dipper and the carved flowers, what is the connection between these? Zhang Han still looked at us with a look of irrelevance, and sometimes I really didn't know why he came here......

"Nothing!! Nothing!! Cui Li shouted angrily.

I look at these flowers on the ground, there must be something we haven't noticed, and the simpler things are, the more we will ignore them.

These flowers are in full bloom, and the carving skills are very good, and they can vividly express the appearance of the words open.

"These flowers are blooming so well...... Lin Yun sighed from the side.

Indeed, these flowers have different appearances, but they are all vividly displayed and beautiful.

"yes, by the way, when did the roses bloom?" I asked casually.

"Spring." Lin Yun answered me without thinking about it.

Spring...... These two words were like a bolt from the blue, and I suddenly realized that there was a problem that we all ignored, and sure enough, the simplest things are often the easiest to ignore.

"What about the lotus?" I pressed on, knowing that I knew almost nothing about flowers.

"Summer. What's wrong? Lin Yun looked at me and asked.

I see!! I understand!!!

"Then if my guess is correct, the osmanthus is in autumn and the plum is in winter?" I confirm further.

"That's right, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this? Lin Yun asked curiously.

"In fact, these flowers are meant to express the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter." I said out loud.

"Roses are spring, lotuses are summer, osmanthus is autumn, and plum blossoms are winter." Lin Yun nodded and confirmed, "But what does this have to do with the labyrinth?" ”

"Actually, the answer is before, you have already said it." Xia Cheng said.

Obviously, Xia Cheng had also thought of where the real entrance to the maze was.

"Did I tell you? How would I know? Lin Yun said incredulously.

"Precisely, the answer lies in these false entrances." Xia Cheng continued.

The answer lies in these false entrances? How is this possible? What the hell are you talking about, I don't understand at all. "Zhao Yuyu looked at me and Xia Cheng.

"Lin Yun, do you remember how you introduced the Big Dipper?" Xia Cheng asked deliberately.

"The Big Dipper is precisely composed of seven stars, which are: Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang. In addition, the Big Dipper appears in different directions in the sky at different times in different seasons and nights, so the ancients decided the season according to the direction of the bucket handle at the beginning and dusk: the bucket handle points to the east, and the world is spring. Bucket handle guide, the world is summer. The bucket handle points to the west, and the world is autumn. The bucket handle points to the north, and the world is winter. Lin Yun repeated the previous words.

"That's right, that's it, the bucket handle points to the east, and the world is spring. Bucket handle guide, the world is summer. The bucket handle points to the west, and the world is autumn. The bucket handle points to the north, and the world is winter. Xia Cheng looked at the seven entrances not far away as he spoke.

"You mean that these entrances symbolize the Big Dipper? Is the direction of the handle the corresponding season? Lin Yun suddenly realized.

"That's right." Xia Cheng glanced at the direction on his watch and continued: "The direction that these seven entrances point to is due south, which means that the whole world is summer. ”

"I see! These flowers on the ground suddenly refer to spring, summer, autumn and winter. Zhao Yuyu said.

So what the lotus refers to is the entrance to the maze that we are looking for.

"Wait, you mean that the lotus is the entrance we are looking for, but how can this entrance be on the ground? Is there something wrong, or is there some other clue. Cui Li asked.

"Cui Li, no one has ever said that the entrance can't be on the ground." I walked in front of the lotus flower, and the place of the lotus leaf was like a handle, and I pulled it hard, but it didn't take much effort, and the door on the ground slowly opened.

"This ...... The entrance to this labyrinth is really on the ground. Cui Li said in disbelief.

We looked down with a flashlight and there was a small staircase that led to the labyrinth below. But we didn't go down like this, after all, we don't know the situation yet, and I'm afraid it will be dangerous to go down now.

"What to do? Shall we go down? Lin Yun asked cautiously.

"Now that you've found the maze, you always have to go down and take a look." I said, but I didn't know anything in my heart.
