Chapter 114: Troubles (4)
There are two drawings on the paper found from under the keyboard, one painting is "ten" on the upper left, "two" on the upper right, and two long horizontal lines below, and there is a vertical line and five horizontal lines in the whole pattern, all of which are parallel; The other painting shows a crucified baby, the painter has good skills, and he does not have many strokes, but he can clearly express his meaning.
Zhou Yu took a look at it and continued to deal with those ghosts, the difficulty of the puzzle is generally not high, but you have to have a variety of knowledge, just like "mermaid's purse", who knows that it refers to the eggs of rays? Who knew that rays had eggs that were rectangular? Those who don't know will probably not be able to solve it in their lifetime.
The puzzle has a cross in it, which seems to be related to religion, and should provide some clues if the crescent moon or light source is present.
Nie Sha also fell into thought, and was pulled up to the fifth floor by Zhou Yu.
The attempt to use obsession to affect the environment failed, perhaps because the obsession was not enough, the floor, walls and ceiling of the teaching building did not change, but it was not completely useless, and several ghosts who had been watching Nie Sha finally began to look at him, and had a desire to attack him.
This is a good thing, because the ghosts are slower, and when [Sluggish] is turned on, it is even slower almost like a static, luring them to attack herself, and Niesha will have enough time to find and discover the puzzle.
It's worth noting that the ghosts' pauses.,There are advantages and disadvantages to pause.,Because you don't know the time of their pause.,You may be lured.,Miss the best time to dodge.,Or be hit by other ghosts.,The ghost speed is slower.,But the power is too great.,There's a feeling like Saitama sensei.,You may hang up after taking a hit.。
The advantage is to be able to figure out why they pause, and if you pause for a longer time, you can make the ghost stand still.
Moreover, this method has nothing to do with zero power and dream talismans, and it can also be used in Moon City and other rattan dreams.
Niesha pondered the puzzle as she flipped through the table, occasionally taking out the note and looking at it, following the lines on the left with her fingers.
"It's 8!" Running to the third classroom, her eyes lit up and she spoke.
"Eight? Why? Zhou Yu stood at the door of the classroom, looked at the approaching ghost, and asked curiously.
"The baby on the cross refers to the 'original sin' in religion, that is, the sin we are born with, and the subsequent sins are 'original sin', all of which are derived from original sin, and the original sin in Catholicism refers to the seven deadly sins, if there is only a baby on the cross, then the answer is 7." Nisha explained as she flipped over her chair, her emotions calming down.
"But there's those lines on the left, so it's not seven, what do those lines mean?" Zhou Yu knows that lines are the most difficult.
"That's the abstract Greek flag, the Greek flag is blue and white, if you look at blue as the background color, the remaining white line is a cross in the upper left corner, four horizontal lines, the seven deadly sins of Catholicism are derived from the eight evils in Greek theology, so the answer is 8." Nisha said with some pride.
"Amazing, you have a little more knowledge." Zhou Yu turned his head and locked his gaze on Ma Tao, who was getting closer.
"If you play a lot of puzzle-solving games, you will pay attention to these dispensable bean knowledge, and the difficulty is not to solve puzzles, but to come up with puzzles, we have always played like this......" Suddenly thinking of her friends, Nie Sha showed a worried look on her face.
Ma Tao was successfully attracted by Zhou Yu, and slashed at him with the metal meter ruler, and the mocking face finally came into play, but the mockery was a little difficult, and he had to pay a high degree of concentration to do it, otherwise Ma Tao would immediately turn to Nie Sha.
Concentration is precisely Zhou Yu's weakness.
The fourth puzzle was solved, and the fat man finally appeared, with a mouth full of long fangs, the corners of his mouth cracked, his mouth wide open, and some skin or flesh remained between the teeth.
"I'm so hungry...... Nesha, let me eat you......" He ran towards Nesha with his mouth wide open, and his speed was not slow.
There are four ghosts chasing after him, and it has become very difficult to escape, and Zhou Yu has not yet mastered the art of attracting hatred, so he can only run away at present.
Nesha looked a little tired, rummaging at a noticeable slowdown, and couldn't stay in a classroom for too long, looking for an hour, but still hadn't found the puzzle on the fifth floor.
"You have to think of a way, aren't you a monk? Is chanting useful? Nie Sha leaned on a table and said to Zhou Yu with a frown.
"I've tried it a long time ago, but it didn't work." Zhou Yu is also very anxious, all four of them are like this, and if there are two more, they must be blocked and killed.
"What then? There's no time to find a puzzle now......" Nie Sha didn't finish speaking, and was pulled out by Zhou Yu again.
"What's your idea?" Zhou Yu suddenly thought that Nie Sha was a dream weaver, she should know the rules of this world, and maybe she could come up with something.
"Me? Not...... Is fire okay? Oni seem to be afraid of light. Niesha thought for a moment and said.
"Great idea!" Zhou Yu slapped his thigh, looked around, and said, "But that short man is not there, he has a lighter." ”
"He's the smartest of us, and he's got the hardest puzzles, usually at the end." Niesha looked disappointed.
Zhou Yu sighed, I really hope that someone can help him, but I can't find anyone, I'm afraid that the only one who can help him is Dark Moon.
Dark Moon is very strong, terrifyingly strong, and he can still break through the rattan dream realm, he must have a way to deal with this knot ghost, but last time I said that it would not appear again until Zhou Yu got ten dream runes, and now there are only eight dream runes, so I can't count on it.
It was impossible for Dark Moon to appear, but as soon as he thought of him, Zhou Yu thought of what he had said.
Dark Moon's words are not clear, probably saying that the history of fate will not change, no matter what you do, you can't change it, and the Dream Hunter wants to maintain the original fate of the Dream Weaver, even if it is done himself.
That's why Zhou Yu personally cut down Keiji Hojo.
But he still can't figure out what this sentence means, it's just a dream, what kind of fate? Could it be that dreaming can change the fate of the real world? After that, Dark Moon didn't explain this matter again, and Zhou Yu was not impressed by these things, but now that he recalled it, he suddenly had an idea:
"The dream hunter wants to maintain the original fate of the dream weaver, even if he does it himself, that is to say, if he doesn't do it, the fate of the dream weaver will change? So can the Dream Hunter change the fate of the Dream Weaver? Don't talk about the real world, at least change the fate in the dream? ”
Thinking of this, he suddenly said to Nie Sha: "I think there should be a lighter in the teacher's office, it is impossible for all teachers not to smoke, right?" Even if you don't smoke, you will keep the lighters that you have confiscated from the students in your office. ”
The dream is Nesha's, give her a reasonable explanation, will she have an effect on the dream and make a lighter in the teacher's office?
Nie Sha thought for a moment and nodded, "It's really possible, go find it?" Look for puzzles by the way. ”
There will be such an idea, and it is also inspired by the "lucid dream" mentioned by Xinyue, Zhou Yu feels that the Dream Weaver should have an impact on the special dream, although this is a "real" world with its own operating rules, but in a place where the Dream Weaver can't see and does not have any dream role, is it considered a violation of the rules of the world to have an extra lighter?
Just like in the real world, there are abilities such as perspective, teleportation, stealth, etc., and the world has not changed because of this, how to run or how to operate, maybe in the real world, there will be something that appears or disappears every day because of people's thoughts, but it happens in a place where no one can see it, and no camera can capture it.
"It's as if the problem has become very philosophical, isn't it the basic idea of idealism that spirit, consciousness or idea affects matter, and matter depends on consciousness for its existence? I'm not subjective idealism or objective idealism, but ...... Practical idealism? On the way to the teacher's office, Zhou Yu thought.
He was still guarding the door of the office, and Niesha went in to rummage, there was only one door in the office, but there was a lot of space inside, and there were tables and chairs put together, which were good obstacles, even if the ghosts could destroy them, they would be slowed down by these obstacles, allowing them to escape.
"Found it!" It didn't take long for Niesha to find a disposable lighter from a desk drawer.
Is there really one?
Zhou Yu glanced back, a little surprised, he didn't know if this lighter was originally there or because of Nie Sha's will, if it was generated, wouldn't it be even a bazooka...... No, that thing can't exist in school, it's not reasonable.
Without thinking so much, he immediately came to the door of the office with a lighter and a few books and lit them with a lighter.
The fire burned all at once, and Zhou Yu moved a few more chairs to put on the fire, and the chairs also burned quickly, and then the door.
The things that were closer to the door had been moved away beforehand, the fire did not spread, and the ghosts were really stopped.
The ghosts failed to break through the fire barrier, they kept wandering at the door, they didn't dare to touch the flames, and they would immediately retreat if they encountered it, even the meter ruler in Ma Tao's hand.
"Haha, you're really smart enough to think of using fire." Zhou Yu laughed happily.
"But how do we get out?" Nie Sha was also happy, now she didn't have to run around, she could concentrate on finding the puzzle.
"If you have weapons, you don't have to be afraid of them." Zhou Yu began to make torches.
The puzzle was not in the office, and the two kicked away the still burning chairs, brandished their torches, and walked out back to the classroom.
There are a lot of desks in the classroom, and it is even easier to make a fire door.
Finally, in the fourth classroom, Zhou Yu found the puzzle.
This time the puzzle looks very simple, it is also drawn on a piece of paper, with a fat "V" with a large opening at the top, a thin "V" with a small opening in the middle, and a horizontal line at the bottom, and that's it, no more clues.
