Chapter 1045 Orthogonal Counting Method

Too quiet.

If something goes wrong, there will be a demon. This sentence can be said to be Liu Xing’s biggest gain after entering the Cthulhu running team game hall. Moreover, Liu Xing has always regarded this sentence as his creed.

So what kind of secrets are hidden in this quiet castle?

Liu Xing felt that the mythical creature hidden in this special module should appear.

"Please be careful. The weeds in the room are too lush. Maybe there will be snakes and some other things hidden inside." Liu Xing whispered: "I think there should be no snake venom in this mirage, so if we encounter poisonous snakes, we will be in trouble."

Li Hanxing smiled, raised the spear in his hand and said, "Then let me take the lead. I promise to let you know what it means to alert the snake."

As he said that, Li Hanxing took the lead in charge.

Liu Xing and the other two shook their heads and had to follow Li Hanxing... Of course, Alice was still riding on the horse, because Liu Xing and others were worried that there would be "horse thieves" here, and it would be very uncomfortable if they were infantry fighting cavalry at that time...

This is not false to shock the snake.

Li Hanxing just casually used his spear to pull the grass a few times, and Liu Xing saw several colorful snakes scattered and fled away. Logically speaking, these brightly colored snakes should be poisonous.

In addition to snakes, Liu Xing also saw a few mice running around in the grass. It is really worthy of being a nest of snakes and rats.

However, when he saw the mouse, Liu Xing subconsciously thought of the human-faced mouse.

To be honest, the atmosphere between the human-faced rat and the abandoned castle is quite compatible.

"It seems that this castle has been abandoned for a long time. It has become a paradise for wild animals. I think even if something was left in these houses before, it should have been bitten by these mice now." Alice said.

Liu Xing nodded and said helplessly: "It should be so. It seems that we can only wash sand in the waves and gold in the sand. If there is no gain, just treat it as a passing time. After all, we don't know whether the people in the main castle are members of the public faction."

As he was talking, Liu Xing and others came to the first wooden house.

This wooden house looks quite large in area and has many windows open, so Liu Xing and others can clearly see that there are many single wooden beds in this wooden house, with quilts and pillows on the bed, but these quilts and pillows all look tattered, and some quilts and pillows have mushrooms growing on some quilts and pillows.

"It's a little wrong. Alice, didn't you say that the former owner of this castle was forced to give up the castle because of the family's fall? But judging from the situation in this wooden house, the people here seemed to have suddenly left the castle together, not even bringing their own bedding." Sun Huiwen said with some confusion.

Liu Xing thought for a while and nodded, "Sun Huiwen is right. If I remember correctly, in ancient times, people basically brought their own bedding when they went to work in a long distance or went to other places to work, because most inns and owners did not provide bedding. Therefore, bedding was considered a personal item in ancient times. When the original employees in this castle were dismissed, they should not leave their personal items here, unless they were very anxious and were driven out of the castle by others."

At this time, Alice was also confused and shook her head and said, "According to Zum and the others, the original owner of this castle fell into the river and disappeared after being missing for ten years. After disappearing, it was considered dead. The title and the man disappeared. Therefore, the family was deprived of the title. Naturally, they could not maintain the castle anymore, so the family took the initiative to give up the castle, and the castle was restricted because no one was willing to take over, and then it was directly rewarded to the Duke of Gundoan. If this is true, then the situation in this wooden house is indeed a bit strange, but there is still a possibility that can be explained, that is, after the castle is idle, a group of people occupy the nest."

"Then let's go in and take a look first."

Li Hanxing said as he pushed open the wooden door directly.

As soon as the wooden door was opened, Liu Xing and others could smell an indescribable odor, which included the smell of moldy wood and other items, as well as the smell of animal excrement.

In addition, Liu Xing seemed to smell a strange fragrance of flowers.

This kind of flower fragrance seems to be there or not, making other odors more difficult to get into the nose.

"This shouldn't be. This wooden house has so many windows to ventilate and can shine with sunlight. Logically speaking, this room shouldn't be so smelly, and the most important thing is that we didn't smell such a big smell outside the house just now." Li Hanxing said with his nose covering.

When Liu Xing heard Li Hanxing say this, walking at the end, subconsciously exited the room, and found that the odor that was originally surrounded by him could be said to be a omnipresent odor suddenly faded a lot.

Liu Xing took another step forward, well, it has a taste.

Alice, who was still riding on the horse and helping Liu Xing and others look at the wind, looked at Liu Xing with some surprise, wondering what Liu Xing was doing when he was repeatedly jumping at the door.

Before Alice could ask, Liu Xing said affirmatively: "There may be a problem with this wooden house. I basically can't smell the odor outside the door, but I just enter the door and smell a very obvious smell. It's like there is an invisible barrier at the door, blocking the odor in the room."

After hearing Liu Xing say this, Li Hanxing and Sun Huiwen also came out to try it out, and found that it was really the case.

"It's interesting. This shouldn't be a natural formation, so I think someone must have done it on purpose, but what is his purpose? Or is there something in this wooden house?" Li Hanxing touched his chin and said, "Forget it, let's continue to search. Alice, you're outside to help us watch something. If you find something strange, please inform us as soon as possible and we will leave this room as soon as possible."

At the same time, Sun Huiwen took out a bag of masks and gloves from his backpack and distributed them to everyone.

After bringing the mask, Liu Xing and the other two entered the wooden house again and began to search the wooden house.

Judging from the decorations in the wooden house, it should be a collective dormitory, with about twenty people living in it, so in addition to the single wooden beds, there are several tables lined up, with roughly crafted wooden cups and bamboo cups, as well as several bottles of wine that have been sipped.

etc!

Liu Xing looked carefully and found that the wines were all from glass bottles.

Although the invention of glass can be traced back a long time ago, the emergence of glass bottles still had to wait for the invention and improvement of the glass blow molding process, so it was impossible for glass bottles to appear in the Middle Ages.

Liu Xing quickly stepped forward, picked up a bottle and looked at it.

Although there is no label on this bottle, Liu Xing still found the production date and batch wind information at the bottom of the bottle.

Obviously, it is very likely that these bottles were brought in from Restaurant No. 5.

Liu Xing quickly told Li Hanxing and others about the discovery.

"This place is worthy of being the most difficult mirage. I didn't expect that there would be so many different main tasks, or the task storyline." Li Hanxing said seriously: "If nothing unexpected happens, some outsiders may have been assigned to this castle before. The task they need to complete should be to help the original owner of the castle recover the title medal, but unfortunately they should have failed."

Sun Huiwen, who was standing beside him, shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily the case. I think there was a group of thieves in the timeline before this mirage. When these guys saw that there was no one in the castle, they occupied the nest and regarded this place as their temporary base. These bottles were likely snatched from some outsiders. After all, this place was still in the medieval period, and wine bottles like this still looked very precious."

Looking at Li Hanxing and Sun Huiwen who were dissatisfied with each other, Liu Xing shook his head and said, "No matter what, this place should be related to outsiders who entered this mirage before us. Moreover, these outsiders are from the modern times. The most important thing is that the people who once lived here suddenly disappeared because of special reasons, or escaped, so we have to continue searching and find enough evidence to prove our guess."

After Liu Xing finished speaking, he continued to inspect other parts of the wooden house.

Not long after, Liu Xing made another discovery, that was, on the wall next to a single wooden bed, someone used the word "公" counting method to engrave three "公" characters on it.

"Fifteen days? This group of players stayed here for fifteen days?"

Liu Xing touched his chin and decided to find some other developments before telling Li Hanxing and the others about this, because these three "positive" characters alone could not be conjectured.

After searching like this, Liu Xing focused on the bedding on the bed.

To be honest, Liu Xing really doesn't want to flip through these beddings that have almost become indescribable, but Liu Xing's subconscious mind has been urging Liu Xing to flip through these beddings because there are real clues hidden in these beddings.

So, Liu Xing could only take a deep breath... and almost got angry because he was wearing a mask.

When Liu Xing opened the quilt closest to him, he found a broken electronic watch, and the position of this electronic watch was just the position where the person put his left hand when he was lying down normally.

Seeing this, a picture appeared in Liu Xing's mind - a man wearing an electronic watch was lying on the bed to rest, but he suddenly disappeared, leaving only the electronic watch and still fell into the bed.

But why is there only one electronic watch left? Does this person like to be free and unrestrained by any external objects when sleeping?

While thinking, Liu Xing turned on another quilt next to him, and found another electronic watch that was exactly the same. The electronic watch was located at the right hand of the person when he was lying down.

Is this a couple's electronic watch, so the couple is worn by men on the left and right?

But from the design of this electronic watch does not look like a couple watch? And to be honest, these two electronic watches do not look like any signs. They are just a dial with several function buttons next to them.

Just as Liu Xing was thinking about the connection between these two electronic watches, Li Hanxing on the other hand also followed suit and opened the quilt beside him.

"Hmm? Liu Xing, come here, I also found a watch."

Hearing Li Hanxing say this, Liu Xing immediately walked over and found that the electronic watch on Li Hanxing's hand was exactly the same as the two electronic watches he found.

Liu Xing thought about it and immediately opened a quilt, but there was also an electronic watch under the quilt.

At this time, Sun Huiwen also walked over with an electronic watch, frowned and said, "First of all, let's eliminate a wrong option - this group of outsiders who entered the mirage bought a batch of electronic watches, and they all wore it when they came in."

"This should be unlikely, because the production time recorded under those wine bottles was after 2012, so to put it nicely, it is a minimalist retro style, and to put it bluntly, it is difficult for electronic watches without any sense of design to have a market during this period, let alone so many people can fool them together. I think this should be a timer issued by Mirage to outsiders, or a task release device, so when these people disappeared for some reason, these electronic watches, no, this kind of electronic product stayed here."

"It seems that this mirage is a bit fun to play. We have prepared so many completely different game modes, which is a bit different from other mirages." Li Hanxing frowned.

Liu Xing thought for a while, sighed and said, "Let's collect all the electronic watches first, and then check if these electronic watches can still be used normally. However, these electronic watches can prove that there were once a group of outsiders like us living here."

So, Liu Xing and the other two continued to lift the quilt, and sure enough, they found an electronic watch on each single wooden bed... Except for Liu Xing who had three "positive" characters engraved on the wall next to him.

Liu Xing called Li Hanxing and Sun Huiwen again, "If nothing unexpected happens, this person should be the lucky one among this group of outsiders. However, I am a little confused about what these three 'positive' characters represent. It seems that it is very likely to represent fifteen days, but I always feel that this matter is not that simple. Perhaps these three 'positive' characters represent other meanings."
