Chapter 443: The Mystery of Hexagrams
After all, Zhao Yu had worked in criminal investigation for such a long time. After he discovered a large number of numbers and symbols in the book, he studied it a little, and soon saw some tricks.
First of all, he searched the Internet, and it turns out that this symbol is a phonetic symbol of the Republic of China period, or it can be said to be the Chinese pinyin of the Republic of China period. According to the Internet, because Mandarin was not promoted at that time, the Hanyu Pinyin at that time was not what it is now, but was composed of 40 symbols that looked like Latin letters.
Next, Zhao Yu took out a previous hexagram for comparison, and followed this phonetic notation method, and quickly found the matching phonetic symbols.
Since this is a pinyin, it only cares about the correct pronunciation of the hexagrams, not the exact meaning of the words.
In front of each symbol, there is a corresponding Arabic numeral, and these numbers are not arranged in order of size, some have one or two digits, some have three or four digits, and there is no rule at all.
When Zhao Yu found the corresponding symbols based on the hexagrams, he suddenly obtained a large series of numbers.
strangeness! ?
Zhao Yu frowned. He didn't understand what this large string of numbers meant. With strong curiosity, he flipped through the back again, but unfortunately, the back was the water-soaked part of the ancient book, and many things couldn't be seen clearly. up.
Zhao Yu just saw a drawing from the front page, on which was drawn a big "ten" character, with the center of the cross as the center, and a big circle was drawn, and this circle was still It is evenly divided into many parts, with some symbols and numbers mixed in between.
Although the picture was seriously damaged, Zhao Yu could still see the general idea. At first glance, it seemed to be an ordinary math problem on the test paper, but after careful research and analysis, combined with the numbers obtained before, Zhao Yu finally Understand the mystery of this!
Wow! ?
Seeing this result, Zhao Yu couldn't help being even more excited. He quickly took out his cigarette and made another divination. In order not to wake Miao Ying up, he even covered himself with a quilt.
Coughing indiscriminately inside the quilt, the new hexagram suddenly came out:
"Duizhen hexagram, Duize Zhenlei. The swamp is Yinlei, the air is turbid but not plagued, and the elegant blue ribbon is born, and the depression should be dull."
Zhao Yu quickly wrote down this group of hexagrams on paper, and then began to analyze the hexagrams according to the latest findings.
First of all, he marked all the words according to the pinyin method of the Republic of China in the book.
Unexpectedly, the first two sentences "Duizhen Gua" and "Duize Zhenlei" both correspond to "0". Although there is no clear explanation in the book, Zhao Yu feels that these two sentences should be the names of the hexagrams And at the beginning, since it is expressed as "0", it means that it is probably meaningless.
Therefore, he put these two sentences on hold for the first time, and turned to study the following 16-character hexagrams with great concentration. The 16 characters were evenly divided into four groups, and after comparison, the corresponding Arabic numerals appeared in each group.
Let’s first look at the first group of “Swamp Yinlei”. After comparison, these four characters show 1507; "It is 2109."
1507, 8927, 0013, 2109.
When these four groups of seemingly meaningless numbers were presented in front of him, Zhao Yu had already made some calculations in his heart, and seemed to have seen through the mystery.
He immediately took the following drawing to compare, and finally, through his serious research, he only took half an hour to explain the meaning of this string of numbers.
Unexpectedly, the meaning of this string of numbers completely corresponds to some of his previous conjectures.
First, look at the first set of numbers 1507. A long time ago, Zhao Yu had thought about whether those obscure hexagrams could indicate a certain direction? Because, after all, it is an adventure system. Since an adventure is going to happen, there must be a location and direction, right?
Now it seems that this speculation is very likely to be established.
turn out to be,
On the cross map, Zhao Yu found the most direct azimuth information: If the cross is regarded as an azimuth map of up, north, down, south, left, west, right, and east, then the series of numbers behind, and the number drawn on the cross The lines all made sense.
The cross chart is centered on the center of the cross, and a diagonal line is drawn every 10 degrees, which just draws 36 lines on the azimuth map. These 36 lines undoubtedly represent 360 degrees, and every 10 degrees corresponds to one direction!
For example, if you look for the 1507 in front of you according to the azimuth map, the 15th line indicates the east-south direction, and the 07 in the back divides every 10 degrees into 10 parts, and 07 represents one of them. In this way, the direction of the indication can be made more precise.
And once the direction is clear, Zhao Yu guesses that the next set of numbers must indicate - distance!
8927, such a number, if it represents a distance, its unit cannot be kilometers or centimeters, and the only way to explain it in meters is the most reasonable. In other words, counting from the position where he opened the hexagram, 8927 meters east by south, is the place where the adventure is about to happen!
Although, Zhao Yu also considered that it was possible to use "zhang" or other distance units in ancient China, but now he didn't have the heart to convert or search, and hurriedly looked at the next set of numbers.
According to his inference, after the direction and distance, it must be time! Since it is to encounter an adventure, the element of time is essential.
However, the third group of numbers was 0013, which made it hard for Zhao Yu to figure it out. Because, if the time is changed, it is 0:13 in the morning, and it is already 3:00 in the middle of the night. Doesn't that mean that the adventure has passed?
Moreover, Zhao Yu only opened the hexagram at two o'clock in the middle of the night, so it can't be that the adventure has already happened, right? So, either 0013 refers to 0:13 am the next day, or, 0013 does not indicate the time at all!
So... if it's not time, what else could it be?
Could it be... space?
Oh... 0013, could it be that...represents a height of 13 meters? can you? However, if the adventure happened in a place like an underground parking lot, wouldn't it be a negative number?
Negative numbers... Negative numbers...
Zhao Yu searched all over the map corresponding to the symbols and found no negative numbers, all of them were Arabic numerals.
With uncertain doubts, Zhao Yu turned his attention to the fourth set of numbers.
2109!
Hmm... Seeing this number, Zhao Yu's first thought was, if this number represents time, wouldn't it be more reasonable?
2109 is 9:09 pm! ?
tsk tsk...
Although Zhao Yu felt that he might have solved the meaning of the hexagram, but after seeing the time in front of him, he inevitably had some doubts again.
right?
Guigong gossip comes from ancient China. In ancient China, twelve hours were used to calculate time. Like the ugly Shenwuyou, is it possible to use such an avant-garde 24-hour timekeeping method?
Also, will the distance be in meters? If 0013 stands for height, will the height also be in meters?
Does this sound a little silly?
Could it be that Guigong gossip has been able to predict the future thousands of years ago?
Or, the ghost gossip and the adventure system in the brain were not created by humans at all?
Zhao Yu is a shrewd person. He knew that if he continued to think endlessly in accordance with this line of thinking, he would undoubtedly get into a dead end and it was impossible to come up with any results.
Therefore, as a police detective, Zhao Yu quickly adjusted his thinking and did his own ideological work!
yes!
Now that I may have found the answer to the hexagram, why don't I go to the east-south direction at 9:09 pm tomorrow, 8927 meters away from my home, to have a look? See what's going on there - what! ?
