Chapter 14 Peaks and Loops

The mountains and rivers are poor and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village.

Jinan City and County Government dungeon door opened, a foul smell came to the nose, the hot summer, the already unventilated dungeon was even more disgusting, Yang Xin in the company of Liang Fang and Yacha, covered his mouth and nose, forced the fear in his heart and carefully walked to the passage, at the end, there seemed to be something crawling on the ground, Liang Fang held a torch forward, on the ground, the wall was densely packed with maggots, just one look, Yang Xin's scalp was numb, nauseous. Rao is Liang Fang is a person who practices martial arts, and when he saw so many maggots, he couldn't help but take a step back in fright, but the yacha was used to seeing it, and strode forward, stepping directly on the maggots, and suddenly the juice splashed, and he turned his head to look at Liang Fang and Yang Xin, as if he was blaming them for making a fuss and delaying his time. Yang Xin stubbornly followed the footsteps of the two, and the sticky feeling under her feet almost made her collapse. Finally came to the cell where she was locked up that day, but where was there anyone in the cell, Liang Fang took a torch and leaned into the prison, and in the corner against the wall, there was a pile of rotten white bones!

What about people? Yang Xin couldn't accept it and rushed into the cell, but the pile of white bones was where the strange man was that day! Dead? Is Doctor Zhao dead? How could he die! The glimmer of hope that had just been ignited turned into nothingness at this moment, and Yang Xin couldn't help but cry when she thought of the poor teacher Bai, whose body endured this purgatory-like torture.

Suddenly, the pile of white bones jumped up, Liang Fang was shocked, and hurriedly pulled out the knife on his waist, the white bones seemed to be alive, and they crackled and moved left and right, Liang Fang couldn't help but take a step back and be on guard, only to see a black and slimy thing drill out of the white bones at a very fast speed, Liang Fang raised his knife and slashed it vigorously, the thing was suddenly broken into two sections, and he couldn't move anymore, Liang Fang took a torch to the ground and looked at it, it was a mouse that had been fat! It turned out that Fang was the rat who was making trouble, Liang Fang was annoyed and wanted to kick the rat, but suddenly "Huh! With a sound, there seemed to be something inlaid on the wall behind the white bones, and he took a knife and cut out the contents of the wall three times and divided it by two, and it was a square box!

Liang Fang slowly took out the contents of the box, boxy, about two inches thick, and picked up the side, which turned out to be a light and thin object that could shake page by page.

"Ahh Book! Yang Xin was shocked, snatched the thing from Liang Fang's hand, and her heart was beating wildly, in this era when paper is extremely scarce, there are books! Yang Xin couldn't wait to look at it, it turned out to be a color page! Occasionally, there are illustrations, but the drawings are extremely strange, like flowers, grass, animals, children's graffiti, but the lines are so regular that you can't tell what it is. Looking at the text again, it is crooked, crooked, and completely incomprehensible.

Liang Fang watched Yang Xin's expression go from extreme excitement to loss, and couldn't help but ask at this moment, "What is this?" ”

Yang Xin shook her head and said eagerly: "Quick! Go home! This sudden appearance of color printing books made Yang Xin's mind a mess: Can books also pass through? Is this Doctor Zhao a traverser? Or is there another traverser? Perhaps the mystery can only be solved by solving the contents of this book!

The summer sun finally went down, and the cool breeze hit, accompanied by the fragrance of lotus flowers, which was originally comfortable, but at this moment, Yang Xin, Teacher Liang, and Liu Xin were sitting in the courtyard, but they sighed and frowned. They had been studying the books in their cells for five or six hours, but they still had no clue.

Teacher Liang sighed: "These pictures have no rules at all, no genre at all, no emotional expression in them, but the lines are extremely smooth, not scribbled, they should be expressed, but I can't guess at all!" I'm afraid it's the little dragon genre! 'I have a little secret, a secret! But I won't tell you! ’”

Liu Xin also shook his head frequently: "I have studied all kinds of ancient books, this is not pre-Qin, ancient script, this kind of writing, I have never seen it, and I can't guess, I'm afraid I'm shallow in knowledge." ”

The three of them who were excited couldn't figure it out, and their expressions couldn't help but languish at the moment, Qi looked at Teacher Bai who had been writing and painting since they started to discuss, and the bamboo slips had been densely written more than ten pieces, and at this moment she was still writing and calculating, and couldn't bear to interrupt her, and after nearly an hour, Teacher Bai raised his head suddenly, smiled, and couldn't suppress the look between his eyebrows, and said excitedly: "I know what it is!" The three of them were shocked and looked at her together.

Seeing that the three of them were staring at him, Mr. Bai's smile immediately froze, he lowered his head shyly, habitually covered his forehead with his hand, and whispered: "This should be this coding book, twelve characters as a unit, similar to computer binary, this book is afraid that there is still a volume, stipulating the coding rules, otherwise it cannot be deciphered." ”

Yang Xin was overjoyed and blurted out: "You are such a genius!" But suddenly thinking that Teacher Bai couldn't hear it, he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his eyes, and hurriedly gave her a thumbs up, and Teacher Liang also gave her a thumbs up and said, "I also praise it!" ”

Teacher Bai smiled at the two of them and lowered his head again. Yang Xin looked at her, and she was very distressed in her heart, the self-confident and stubborn Teacher Bai in the past was like this at the moment. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't hear it, and she felt even more sad when she thought of it.

Liu Xin didn't understand the coding and binary at all, and quietly picked up the bamboo slips that Mr. Bai had just calculated and written, looked at it for a few seconds, his face was shocked, and then picked up a piece, and his surprise was even worse, and he said excitedly: "Sir, this technique is really amazing!" His voice trembled a little with excitement, and he said earnestly: "Please teach me!" ”

Yang Xin took the bamboo slip and looked at it, it was full of calculation process, and said in her heart: "Calculation shouldn't cause historical chaos!" Then he nodded and said, "No problem!" But the urgent thing at the moment is to find out the content of this book first and heal Teacher Bai! ”

Hearing that he could learn, Liu Xin was overjoyed, and jumped up and down to find the housekeeper and Liang Fang, changing his rigorous and old-fashioned appearance in the past.

Yang Xin and Teacher Liang guessed all kinds of possibilities, but they didn't have any clue, so they hurriedly asked Liang Fang to go to the prison again to see if there was any omission, and asked the housekeeper Doctor Zhao in detail.

The housekeeper said: "Doctor Zhao's medical hall was originally in Xizi Hutong in the southern suburbs, but after the county guard's wife died, the county guard ordered someone to demolish it. ”

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts, they didn't expect that Li Junshou, who looked so kind, was so vicious, his wife and children died, killed the whole family, and drove the doctor crazy and imprisoned him to torture, and he was not allowed to be at peace after death, and the viciousness of his heart was really resentful.

Yang Xin asked, "Who is this Doctor Zhao?" What is his background? ”

The housekeeper replied: "Doctor Zhao rarely communicates with people except for curing diseases, I heard that he was originally a wandering warlock, and a few years ago he received a revelation from the gods during a quarry, and since then he has lived in Xizi Hutong to treat diseases and save people. ”

Yang Xin's heart moved, and she hurriedly asked: What god's revelation? You say be specific! ”

The housekeeper said with a sad face: "I don't know the specifics, but I heard that every Mid-Autumn Festival, Doctor Zhao has to go to the mountain to worship the mountain god." ”

Yang Xin frowned and said, "Mountain God? Do you know which mountain it is? ”

The housekeeper said: "I don't know about this, he goes alone, as short as three or five days, as long as a month." ”

Yang Xinqi said: "No one is curious to go with him to see?" ”

The housekeeper shook his head and said, "If you are not invited by the mountain god, you will be cursed, and you will not be able to get out of it if you are lost in the forest." ”

Yang Xin said: "This is a lie, right? ”

The housekeeper explained: "Originally, everyone didn't believe it, but there were good people who secretly followed Doctor Zhao, and the strange thing is that the person who followed him lost his trace when he entered the forest, but he kept walking in the forest, his feet were bloody, and he couldn't stop until he fainted from exhaustion." The person who had been there changed his temperament when he came back, and he was in a trance all day long, but whenever anyone mentioned the mountain gods and the woods, he shouted as if he had lost his heart, and no one dared to follow him!"

Everyone was fascinated by what they heard, and there was such a strange thing, the butler scratched his head and continued: "There is also a strange thing, this miracle doctor will sit under a big tree and talk to himself all night before he goes, saying that he is asking the permission of the mountain god to enter the mountain. But others followed suit, but found nothing. ”

Yang Xinqi said: "Sit under the tree and communicate with the mountain god!" That's unbelievable! ”

Teacher Liang suddenly said, "Yuanfang, what do you think?" ”

Yang Xin replied solemnly: "My lord, there must be something strange about this matter!" After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled, and Yang Xin said seriously: "My lord, Yuan Fang thinks that this strange thing should be in the tree!" ”

"Hmm!" Teacher Liang nodded and replied in a rough voice: "I think too!" ”

Thinking of Zhang Fei's dark and silly appearance, the two laughed tacitly again. When everyone was still confused about her behavior, Yang Xin suddenly said with a serious face: "Housekeeper, do you know which tree it is?" ”

The housekeeper nodded and said, "It's the one at the mouth of the alley in Xizi Hutong, but then the county guard ordered all the branches to be cut down!" ”

"What!" Yang Xin was shocked, just had a clue, and instantly broke it again, and couldn't help but hurriedly say: "This ...... This...... But how is it good! ”。

Liu Xin comforted: "Sir, don't worry, it's okay to go and see!" ”

"Hmmm! Yeah! Yang Xin nodded without falling, the so-called concern is chaotic, since she saw Teacher Bai's tragic situation, her whole heart has risen to her throat, and she has lost all her square inches. At this moment, I couldn't help but secretly remind in my heart: "Yang Xin, Yang Xin!" You have to hold on! Those who become big things need Mount Tai to collapse in front of them and the color remains unchanged, you panic, the emotions of this family have to be affected by you, and what to talk about becoming stronger, what to talk about protection! I have the idea of giving up without trying, how can I be so cowardly? Even if Doctor Zhao can't do it, the world is so big, there are still Doctor Qian, Doctor Sun, and Doctor Li...... As long as the faith does not fall, no matter what happens, it will definitely be possible! ”
