Chapter 282

In the reflection of the potion in the pot, Eliza Camille, Tanis and Dorothy went into the house where the trees had grown, while the other three remained outside to prevent any trap in the house from catching them all, in addition to acting as a lookout.

Finally, the mage's eye followed Eliza into the dark room.

"Can't we change the perspective in this basin..." Fitter went around the basin twice, but still couldn't find the right angle.

"I don't mind if you look for a view, but if you can, don't go through me? It's hairy... "

Sylvie glanced at the nervous ghost girl.

Generally speaking, if the ghost passes through the body of ordinary people, it will make people feel cold, and because it takes away a certain degree of vitality, it will make ordinary people sick.

But first of all, fitter has a divine magic, and Levi is not an ordinary person, so there is no other feeling except psychological discomfort when Seaver is passed by fitter.

"This is a manifestation of curiosity. As the saying goes," Curiosity Kills nine cats. " Fitter protested.

"That proverb was meant to warn people not to be curious about strange things. Besides, aren't you dead..."

"Stop playing and see what they've found," Seaver replied

Although there seems to be something else to say, Eliza in the reflection did find something in the room, so the ghost girl closed her mouth and floated over Sylvie's head, looking at the basin from the same angle as he did.

In the reflection, several little guys seemed to be saying something, but the mage's eye did not receive the sound effect, so SIVI could not know what they were talking about.

Then the angle of view slowly opened, and the things in the room were revealed in front of Sylvie and fitter.

It's a wooden platform and a branch.

On the wooden platform, there are some xiumen Chinese characters that seem to be carved with sharp tools, and a golden carambola grows on the branch.

Both SIVI and fitter approached the surface of the potion. Fortunately, the magician who controlled the eye of the mage in Qiyao master tower seemed to want to see the words on the wooden platform clearly, so the picture drew closer.

"Take Venus, which is easy to wither, find your nearest scabby head and face, pull out the last hair of the bald man among them, and then exchange Venus for the treasure in the bald man's pocket. It doesn't matter if you fail once. Venus will appear before you succeed. " What kind of mess is this? "

Fitter's mouth twitched after reading the words: "what kind of scabby, heady face, I don't know why!"

"This should be what the rules call" mystery. " Sylvie touched his chin with interest. "It looks like a puzzle right now, and it's a very simple puzzle."

"Do you already know the answer?"

The ghost girl with two ponytail turned her face and looked at Seaver in disbelief.

"Well, I'm pretty good at this stuff." Sylvie chuckled. "It's not difficult at all. It depends on Eliza whether they want to get the key point."

Chess board world · house of trees Dorothy, with a black line on her head, said, "what kind of scabby and heady face? I don't know why! (some ghost sneezes) "

" it should be the so-called mystery. "

Kamiyu looked at the words carefully, as if to find some new clues from them.

"It's better to find a talent first, regardless of whether you have a scabby head or a pimple face." "Let's go to the nearest town and think about it

"If it's just a literal explanation, we'll have to pull out the last hair on the bald man after that..." Eliza frowned and instinctively felt wrong: "I always felt that this kind of thing should not be explained literally."

After several people's discussions failed, they decided to let several people outside the room also participate in the discussion. Anyway, it was confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the room.

"Theo, can you stay on alert all the time?" To be on the safe side, Eliza asked.

"If the distance is not big, no problem."

The little girl touched the cat's ear on her head, blinked her bright yellow eyes, and said with great conviction.

Once again, after ensuring safety, they began to brainstorm on the words carved on the wooden platform.

"Now the only thing that can be confirmed is that the" Venus "in it refers to this thing Kami especially refers to the carambola in his hand: "besides, treasure should be the badge of freedom."

Although it was written in the code that it was easy to wither, it was also pointed out that even if it withered, as long as the secret code was not untied and the badge as a treasure was not taken away, the carambola would still grow again, so he took it down."The nearest town grid is five squares away from here. Now it will take more than six hours to get there. Even with a broomstick, it will take about two hours on a smooth journey. What's more, the monsters flying in the sky will not let us pass easily No matter how you think about it, the secret language specifically points out that the fruit which is easy to wither can't last that long, right

After getting the chessboard map from Theo, Eliza's brow did not loosen. She repeated the deduction, but could only come to the same conclusion.

"In other words, isn't the code referring to letting us go to town?" Tanis was also upset, which made the fat on his face crowded together. It looked funny, but now no one had the heart to pay attention to it.

"Are there any special scabby heads, lumpy faces and baldheads around here waiting for us to finish this task?"

"In addition to rescuers, public enemies and our examinees, there should be no other talents in the field." Eliza shook her head and denied the little fat man's conjecture.

In the following period of time, everyone expressed their own opinions, but they were found to be wrong and denied one by one. Then the wooden house fell into a strange state of silence.

After a long silence, Eliza seems to have made a difficult decision: "it has been more than an hour, if not, we can only give up the mystery and continue to move towards the end."

As if in response to her words, the carambola suddenly made a Zizi sound, as if all the water in it had disappeared. Under the gaze of the public, it wrinkled and shrunk into a small ball as big as the nail cover, and then turned into black and white ashes, scattered on the wooden platform.

as like as two peas on the bare branch, the same carambola was not transmitted by the fast speed of TV, and it was unscientifically completed in a few seconds.

At this time, Theo, who had been silent for keeping alert, suddenly spoke.

"Eliza, do you remember the riddle the teacher used to say?"

"What?" Because the little girl said too suddenly, Eliza couldn't respond to it all of a sudden, and asked in a dull way.

"What kind of animal has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon and three legs at night." Said Theo briefly.

"Well, the answer is" humanoid, "right (because humans are not the only intelligent creatures in the world, SIVI changed the answer to the riddle from "human" to "humanoid creatures"...)

Eliza came back to herself: "the riddle Yes

In that riddle, the morning represents the infant period of crawling, the noon represents the young age of walking on two feet, and the evening represents the old age with crutches, which is not explained literally.

Why, then, do we have to literally understand the name of "mangy head", "pimple face" and "baldness"?

And the fruit also brought an important hint that the place to go must be within an hour!

In this way, the whole scope can be reduced to a certain extent. Then use those three words to cover

Thinking of this, Eliza once again turned her eyes to the map.

"I know the answer!"

Everyone's eyes were on Eliza. The girl pointed her finger to a point on the map

-- guest house --

"eh? Why did Eliza point to the desert grid on the right side of their forest? " Fitter asked, not knowing why.

"Because Eliza already has the answer."

SIVI explained to Fett with a smile: "the" scabby head "refers to the Gobi lattice with only a few sparse shrubs, and the" pimple face "refers to the wind erosion zone with many stone pillars eroded by wind and water

With that, he pointed to the huge chessboard map in the sky outside the window: "the bald man in the middle of them" is a barren land with nothing between these two grids, a desert grid. "

"What does" pulling out the last hair of a bald man "mean Asked fitter again.

"Maybe there are oases in the desert. In a word, when you get there, you should know what to do next and how to find the badge."

"Don't you think it's a little far fetched?" The ghost girl was probably dissatisfied with her total failure to think of it, and murmured.

"According to the speed of the carambola decay, this should be the most reliable inference. Because I can see the map as soon as I look up, I have this conjecture when I see the code, and the carambola makes me confirm my answer, that's all

Sylvie looked happy: "I didn't expect to come to the same conclusion so soon. I'm proud of my student." (to be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to start( qidian.com )Your support is my biggest motivation to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. )
