The search here is the most arduous one to find the 'Sealed Pearl'. The scene is too complicated, with rockeries, pavilions, fish ponds, flower beds, trees, and so many patterns. It is very difficult to find, and every place It cannot be ignored that Murong Xiaotian and the others have been searching for two hours, but still have no results.
"Boss, I have searched all the places I should look for, and even the places I shouldn't, but there are still no clues." Murong Xiaotian came out of the fish pond and heard the ghost warriors by the pond. of nagging.
"How about we switch," Murong Xiaotian said while panting heavily. He had been groping in the pond for more than an hour, and there was no fart. Damn it, the water in the pond looked extremely clear from above, but it was so clear from below. The stink was a mess, there were no live fish at all, and dead fish could be seen everywhere on the bottom of the pond, making the entire bottom of the pond stink.
Ghost Warrior is a guy who doesn't know a word about water. He pushed everything away. He can only suffer from it down there. He can't let Ling'er search in the water.
"Forget it, let's continue searching up there," the ghost warrior said and escaped.
After searching for more than an hour, there was still no result. The three of them took a rest by the pond, feeling extremely anxious. It was already past noon, and there was still no result. It seemed that this place had been encountered. Trouble.
"Boss, please use your brain more. You have been quite clever all the way. Why did you get stuck this time?" the ghost warrior asked while drinking.
"Do you think I'm a god? It takes me one thousand years to wake up and five hundred years to know below." Murong Xiaotian glanced at the ghost warrior and took two sips of wine.
"Except for the fish pond, I don't think it will be anywhere else," the ghost warrior added.
"Well, there will definitely not be any on land," Ling'er nodded in agreement.
"Damn, what you are saying is that even if you search carefully, I am not serious enough," Murong Xiaotian rolled his eyes directly.
"We don't mean that, but take a look for yourself. The two of us have dug up almost three feet of the ground in this garden. If there is anything, it is impossible to find it," Ling'er replied. This time, he was Standing on the same front as the ghost warriors.
But what Ling'er said was not unreasonable. The entire garden was almost razed to the ground by the two of them. No, it should be said that it was really almost dug out. The rockery was completely destroyed by the ghost warriors and has become a A pile of gravel had been removed; the pavilion had also been unloaded into pieces, and the flowers and plants had been pulled out cleanly. The entire garden seemed to have been turned into a foundation excavation site for house construction. That dashing scholar had already been moved out of the garden by the ghost warriors.
It's true as the ghost warrior said, even the places where he shouldn't have been searched have been searched.
"Khan, I can't be sure it's inside the pond. There's nothing in it except dead fish. Even the bottom of the pond was dug down at least a foot deep by me. I've smashed the entire four walls of the pond. His body is completely covered with skin, you tell me, is there anything else I haven’t searched?" Murong Xiaotian asked angrily.
"Could it be in the belly of a dead fish?" Ling'er asked again. Girls are more careful.
"Yes, this is very possible," the ghost warrior's eyes lit up and he said excitedly.
"Maybe it's bullshit," Murong Xiaotian said angrily, "All the dead fish were tortured by me. I didn't see that I'm still smelly. You think you just searched carefully?" , it’s just because of your hard work in searching, isn’t it?”
"Um..." The ghost warrior chuckled and scratched his head in embarrassment. After listening to what Murong Xiaotian said, it seemed that he really hadn't missed anything. I didn't expect that the boss had done so much work underwater. It was really hard work. .
In fact, it's not that he doesn't know that Murong Xiaotian is much more careful in doing things than them, and he has much more brains and perseverance. Murong Xiaotian can't even find it, and it would be even worse for them, but they are also really I just said that because I had no choice.
"Hey, if there isn't one outside or in the pond, then where will this 'Seal Pearl' be?" Ling'er's face turned slightly red, and she felt a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that Murong Xiaotian It would be so hard in the fish pond.
"Khan, even if I knew, I wouldn't be messing around with dead fish in the pond," Murong Xiaotian replied in frustration.
"Hey, people say that a scholar is useless. I think this scholar is really stupid when it comes to conspiracy. He even writes a few sensational poems every now and then. His grandma is so boring." The same goes for the Ghost Warrior. I'm very annoyed. It's been going smoothly all the way, but I didn't expect it to get stuck here.
"Scholar, poetry," something seemed to flash through Murong Xiaotian's mind. The ghost warrior's words reminded him that subconsciously, he still couldn't ignore the love poem on the pillar.
"By the way, what did the poem say just now?" Murong Xiaotian raised his head and asked, his eyes fixed on the faces of the ghost warrior and Ling'er.
"The first sentence seems to be bead, bead, bead wall or something," Ling'er replied.
"Bead," Murong Xiaotian was startled, and a sudden flash of lightning flashed through his mind. Isn't this bead the word for 'Sealed Bead'? How could he be so careless and ignore such an important clue, no matter whether this bead is related to ' Whether there is any connection with the Sealed Pearl, you should think carefully about it.
"Are those words still there?" Murong Xiaotian asked quickly, with an anxious expression on his face. He had not completely memorized this poem. If it was really related to the 'Sealed Pearl', then it would be completely ruined.
"Hey, I'm afraid you still want to think about those words, so I'm keeping it, waiting, and I'll get it," the ghost warrior smiled proudly, stood up, and ran towards the destroyed pavilion.
"Wow, Brother Ghost, you are really too wise this time," Murong Xiaotian extended his thumb towards the ghost warrior's back.
"Here we go, here are the first and second sentences." In less than a minute, the ghost warrior ran back with a pillar in one hand, "touch, touch," and placed the two pillars side by side on Murong Xiaotian's side. In front of him, he returned.
"The pearls on the wall reflect the moon hills,"
"People are at the end of the world, love is in their hearts,"
Murong Xiaotian thought about it carefully. He had noticed it just now and thought it was an acrostic poem. But after reading it, he rejected it. Now it seems that it should be an acrostic poem.
So the first character must be the character for pearl, implying the meaning of 'Sealed Pearl'. So, what should be below? It should be where the pearl is, or where the pearl is hidden.
"People are at the end of the world, love is in their hearts,"
Murong Xiaotian quickly looked at the second sentence. There were two repeated characters in it. Murong Xiaotian immediately became excited. This showed that his idea was right. There were two repeated characters in the second sentence, which meant to add. It emphasizes the meaning, and at the same time, it also reminds the location of the key words in the third line of the poem.
Murong Xiaotian did some research on this when he changed his career. This kind of poem is called a poem with overlapping hidden words. That is to say, the first and last words of a poem are both hidden words. , and the repeated words in the second sentence are hidden words, and the position of the words in the third sentence is the sum of the number of hidden words in the first sentence and the second sentence.
Therefore, Murong Xiaotian was sure that the keyword in the third line of the poem was the third character of the third line of the poem, and the fourth line of the poem should be the fourth character.
"Boss, it's all ready." At this time, the ghost warrior ran back again, 'bumped' twice, and placed the last two pillars side by side in front of Murong Xiaotian.
"The pearls on the wall reflect the moon hills,"
"People are at the end of the world, love is in their hearts,"
"Flowers bloom and fish swim, and spring comes again,"
"The silver hair on the temples shed tears in my belly,"
Murong Xiaotian read the four lines of the poem together again. The first line is the first character, the second line is the overlapping character of the second and the penultimate, the third line should be the third character, and the fourth "Sentence" is the last word, so if you combine these four words, it means "The pearl is in the belly of the fish,"
"The pearl is in the belly of the fish," Murong Xiaotian screamed when he saw the answer. There was not a single living fish in the pond, and all the dead fish were completely dismembered by him, leaving no trace behind.
"What, boss, you mean the 'Seal Pearl' is in the belly of the fish," the ghost warrior also looked shocked. If Murong Xiaotian hadn't said that he had dismembered those dead fish, the ghost warrior would have been surprised, but Murong Xiaotian After searching the sky, he couldn't help but be surprised. Although he dared not say that he knew Murong Xiaotian quite well, he still knew the basics. With Murong Xiaotian's character, since he said he had searched, it must be Never miss it; but now the answer is 'the pearl is in the belly of the fish', so we can't help but be surprised.
"Didn't you search the fish's belly?" Ling'er was also stunned.
"Yes, and I can guarantee that it will be very thorough," Murong Xiaotian nodded, very sure.
"Khan, that's strange. How come there isn't?" the ghost warrior frowned. It seemed that things had suddenly reached a dead end. Even Murong Xiaotian had no countermeasures. He had to be anxious. In this place , they have stayed for nearly six hours, which is not a good sign.
"Is it possible that there is a mistake in this puzzle?" Ling'er asked again, and she also became a little worried.
"The puzzle should be correct, and I am sure that the search for this dead fish belly is complete. There should be no mistakes in these two points. However, there should be a key link that we don't know about," Murong Xiaotian Thinking about the answer.
"Khan, this word puzzle has been broken, but in the end it is not broken. This bad scholar is really cunning," the ghost warrior sighed mournfully.
"You can't say that. At least we now know two things. First, the 'Seal Pearl' is in the belly of the fish. Second, we have also determined the specific location, which is the fish pond; at least, we don't have to It’s just a blind touch in other places,” Murong Xiaotian said comfortingly.
"But, you have been searching this fish pond for five or six hours, and there is nothing." Ling'er and Ghost Warrior both looked worried.
