Chapter 78 The Secret of the Secret Box
When Wu Zihao looked at the words on the paper carefully, he was stunned. The words on the paper were clearly the same as those on the stones, and they looked regular, but in fact they didn't recognize a word of ghost.
However, the characters on paper are different from those on stones. The characters on stones look simple and direct, and the carving method is also vigorous and powerful, and the structure of the characters is flat and stable. However, the patterns on paper look softer, and even have some artistic aesthetics. The brushstrokes are also written like brushes, which makes them feel more calligraphy-like.
But Wu Zihao claimed that even if he couldn't recognize any word, he still knew the fonts or minimum text categories of the previous dynasties. The one in front of him was definitely not a traditional word. In other words, even if he used a rice paper brush, the deserted island would not be very close to his hometown.
"We can crack this by decrypting the password. But let's talk about it later." Zhao Ganyu flashed with a bright light, "Decryption is also a matter of rush. There are words on this paper, what about that one?"
There was more than one piece of paper in the secret box. When Li Moxian re-spread another one, everyone held their breath and condensed their breath.
It's obviously a map.
The picture shows directions and dots, and the annotations are written in words that you can't understand. This is completely a map.
"With the map, can we go out to sea and go home?" Michelle happily looked at the map, "But why can't I understand this picture?"
Su Yueya sighed: "This picture is a map, but it's useless. We don't even know where we are. Wu Zihao, have you learned to drive a boat, can you look at the chart?"
"Ah?" Wu Zihao spread his hands, "Now they are all electronic devices, who still looks at the charts?"
His attitude made Su Yueya very popular. If Zhao Ganyu hadn't held her down, Su Yueya would have punched her.
There is a map in front of me, but I can't understand it and can't read it. This feels so heart-wrenching.
After staring at it for a long time, it was useless. Everyone decided that they could only put the map away.
Just as he was packing the map, Zhao Ganyu suddenly thought of something, held Li Moxian's hand to clean up, "Wait for me."
Li Moxian's face was flushed. If she hadn't been afraid of damaging the map, her hand would have avoided it. However, she didn't avoid it, and Zhao Ganyu pinched it in the palm of her hand. Li Moxian felt that her face was blushing until her blood pressure rose, and her vision was blurred.
Zhao Ganyu had no idea what he had done. He suddenly thought of the notebook he found in the grave.
The notebook uses similar texts to the stones, and each page is remembered in a dense manner and has a unified format. Zhao Ganyu originally analyzed that this is the person's diary or notes.
But there is one page without any content, and it looks very unnatural between the two pages that are suddenly filled with them.
The existence of this page has always made Zhao Ganyu very concerned. After all, there are no entertainment activities on the island, so it is also relaxing to read the diary that others cannot understand.
One day, while Zhao Ganyu was working, he accidentally dripped the sea water on the notebook. He was so scared that he quickly wiped it dry. However, he found that there were some traces on this page of the originally empty table. After gritting his teeth, Zhao Ganyu wet the paper with sea water all night, and some drawn figures, lines and patterns slowly appeared on the paper.
The drawn content disappears after the sea water has dried up.
Now Zhao Ganyu took it out and wet it with water again, but the content on the paper did not appear.
"Brother Zhao, what are you asking us to see?" Wu Zihao watched him for a long time in confusion.
Seeing that the paper had no reaction, Zhao Ganyu felt a chill and she was shocked and sweating. He couldn't remember the content on the paper yet, so why didn't this appear? "I think the content on this paper is a bit similar to the map." Zhao Ganyu explained what happened.
"Then let's try it with sea water." Michelling said with a smile, "Maybe it's the cause of sea water." The sea water is easy to solve. The moment it was splashed on, the drawn content began to appear on the paper.
Zhao Ganyu then put his heart back in his stomach: "You are still smart."
The content on paper is indeed somewhat similar to the map. The paper is drawn with some simple graphics, but the distribution of these simple graphics will be consistent with the map. What connects these graphics are some hand-painted curved lines, which also have directions on the lines.
"Is this a guide map? From here, follow this direction, to here." Michelling pointed out the position of the line on the map, "Oh, this is a navigation indicator."
Su Yueya squeezed over, "Where is the end?"
Following the contents of the notebook, they found the corresponding route on the map and found that the focus of these lines connecting is a position similar to the inverted eight-character symbol. There is a long list of markers next to this position.
"Oh. Unfortunately, even if we understand the relationship between the map and this drawing, it will be of no practical use to us." Su Yueya quickly lost interest in the drawings on her notebook. "Even if it is a peerless treasure, it is no different from a waste on this broken island."
Seeing Su Yueya's mood depressed, Li Moxian was also a little depressed.
But Michelling encouraged everyone: "The more I know about this island, the better. Even if it is useless, just treat it as a pleasure. So what is in the other secret boxes? Sister Su, you are so powerful that you can unlock the secret box, and maybe one day you will unlock the secret box."
Her words made Su Yueya feel very comfortable when she heard them, and she quickly took out the medium-sized secret box.
This box is different from others, not square and regular, but hexagonal. Therefore, it takes more steps and time to open it.
Fortunately, the structures of these two secret boxes are generally similar, and Su Yueya tried the same idea several times and opened it.
In this hexagonal secret box is a mirror and another piece of paper.
There is not so much information on the paper this time, it is just a very simple painting. The painting contains the sun and the moon and the sky, and in the middle of the painting are various monsters floating on the clouds.
"If it were an immortal, it would be quite like our traditional immortal painting." Wu Zihao said casually, "But these are all strange things."
The lower half of the painting is an island floating on the sea surface. The waves hit the shore, and two girls stood on the shore. The girls were painting larger, and it can be seen that it was the girl because they were dressed brightly and wore flowers on their heads. The others around them were obviously older, wearing dark clothes, without much decoration, and the paintings were smaller.
"Why are these two girls so big? Could it be that they are giants?" Wu Zihao was excited.
