Chapter 1741 New Direction

In fact, the software parses the data very quickly. After all, it is only a combination of the first thousand digits, and the amount of data is not large. But in the feeling of Xia Ruofei and others, the progress bar runs very slowly.

This is of course an illusion.

Finally, the progress bar finished running, and a prompt box popped up: the analysis was successful.

Chen Xuan said: "Brother Xia, come and open it!"

Xia Ruofei trembled a little when he heard Chen Xuan's voice, and couldn't help laughing and said: "Whether it's successful or not, the data is here, there's no need to be so nervous..."

"I wasn't nervous before, but now I'm suddenly nervous!" Chen Xuan didn't hide his nervousness, and seemed to feel that there was nothing to be ashamed of.

In fact, even Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha couldn't help feeling nervous.

Mu Sheng was more stable, and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Xia, I suggest that the four of us check the results first, and the others avoid it for a while, how about it?"

The so-called other people are naturally Mu Jianfei, Yu Xiner, Song Wei and Ling Qingxue.

Xia Ruofei said nonchalantly, "No problem!"

Originally, Song Wei and Ling Qingxue were not involved in this matter, so if they looked at the content more, they would easily lead to various troubles.

So, Song Wei and others came to the other side of the lounge, found a sofa far away, sat down and waited.

Xia Ruofei, Chen Xuan, Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha gathered in front of the laptop.

"I opened it!" Xia Ruofei said.

"open!"

"Open it!"

Xia Ruofei double-clicked the analyzed data folder to open it.

In fact, one thousand text documents are generated, and the contents are the top one thousand combinations that have been sorted. They are also the one thousand combinations that the supercomputer considers to be the most likely after complex calculations and comparisons.

The filename of each document is numbered from 1 to 1000.

Everyone turned their attention to the first article with high hopes. Xia Ruofei double-clicked to open this document.

The first document is naturally the one that Supercomputing believes is the most likely, and it is also the one that everyone is most looking forward to.

However, when everyone glanced at the content of the document, they couldn't help showing a look of confusion—although they were all combinations of Chinese characters, they couldn't understand what they meant when they were connected together. Combinations of words that don't make any sense!

There are a total of more than 3,000 floating points on the token, that is to say, the length of each document is only more than 3,000 words.

Xia Ruofei and others quickly finished reading the document.

With the level of brain development of the Jindan stage monks, they can basically memorize the content.

The four of them exchanged glances, all wanting to see if others had discovered any clues, but it turned out that everyone was very confused.

In the end, Xia Ruofei said: "Let's do it! Let's read the second article first, and then read a few more articles!"

Next, Xia Ruofei and others read seven or eight documents in a row, but the results were all the same, some meaningless word combinations.

In fact, the higher the number, the stronger the rationality.

Even the first article is a combination of messy words, so the latter ones are naturally not much better.

Xia Ruofei's heart sank, realizing that something might be wrong.

However, in a rigorous manner, they still have to check all the thousand documents.

Xia Ruofei said to Chen Xuan: "Brother Chen, let's bring out a few more computers, and the four of us will allocate 250 documents to each of us, read them as soon as possible, and then discuss it."

Chen Xuan said with some frustration: "It's the only way!"

For this algorithm program, Chen Xuan actually put in a lot of hard work. From the current point of view, it seems that all the work has been done in vain, and his mood is naturally not much better.

Xia Ruofei still had a laptop in the Lingtu space, and Chen Xuan also happened to have two computers, so it was enough at once.

In fact, if it’s not enough, there must be some from Song Wei and Ling Qingxue—these two just got the storage ring, and they can’t wait to stuff their entire family into the ring.

For things like laptops and SLR cameras, there must be a copy in the storage ring.

Xia Ruofei copied the entire data folder to the mobile hard disk, and then asked Chen Xuan to copy the folders to several other computers.

Xia Ruofei said: "Okay, now there is a complete data folder in each computer, and a thousand documents are the same, but in order to improve efficiency, the four of us will divide the work, and each of us will check 250 documents , it will be faster!"

Speaking of this, Xia Ruofei quickly explained: "Our machine time is until 8:00 tomorrow morning, and the data situation is not very good now, so we need to speed up the check. If we can find the problem in a short time and solve it , we still have time to run the program again!"

"it is good!"

"we know!"

"Documents No. 1 to 250, please let Master Mu check it out! Master Liu specializes in documents No. 251 to 500, Brother Chen is responsible for documents No. 501 to 750, and I will check the last part." Xia Ruofei quickly assigned, "Everyone has No disagreement?"

"Let's arrange it like this! It's not too late!" Liu Mansha said.

So, everyone held a laptop and began to check the documents.

Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha can easily learn basic computer operations.

All four of them acted in the same way - flipping through the documents quickly.

Their eyes quickly swept across the computer screen, and then the mouse wheel continued to move down, and occasionally there was the sound of mouse clicks, which meant closing old documents and opening new ones.

Xia Ruofei's heart sank as he looked at it. He was responsible for the last 250 documents, that is, among the top 1,000 documents, the part that the supercomputer thought was the least likely to be the correct answer.

In fact, after reading the previous documents, Xia Ruofei already felt hopeless.

The brain development speed of Jindan stage practitioners is far beyond that of ordinary people, so the speed of reading documents is very fast.

In less than half an hour, everyone had finished reading the 250 documents assigned to them, and Chen Xuan, who was the slowest, was not a few minutes behind.

Everyone closed their laptops and gathered together solemnly.

"How?" Xia Ruofei asked.

All three shook their heads slowly, and Mu Sheng said, "Unless it's code words or something, none of the articles are fluent."

Liu Mansha and Chen Xuan also nodded.

In fact, fluency is the minimum requirement. As the content preserved in the Ascending Dragon Token, there must be some secrets contained in it. Now, even simple smoothness cannot be achieved, which already shows the problem.

In fact, Liu Mansha, Mu Sheng and the others always thought that the most likely scenario was that a practice was recorded in the Ascending Dragon Order.

Looking at it now, among the thousand documents, there is not even a basic fluent one, let alone the exercises.

Xia Ruofei looked down and said, "My situation is the same as everyone else's."

Although in order to save time, no one has read all the thousand documents, but there is no need to hide this kind of thing, because everyone gets all the thousand documents, and it is very fast to read them afterwards. Lying is quickly exposed.

Xia Ruofei continued: "Then, there is a high probability that the data we got this time is not the correct answer!"

Mu Sheng, Liu Mansha and Chen Xuan all nodded, there is almost no doubt about it.

Xia Ruofei said: "Let's analyze it first! In terms of algorithm, Brother Chen and I worked together to create it, and checked it many times. We also set up a simulation environment for trial operation. The situation is very good, so the possibility of problems is not Big."

Speaking of this, Xia Ruofei paused for a while, and then said: "Although I don't want to admit it, I still think... maybe our direction is wrong!"

Chen Xuan frowned slightly and said: "Our algorithm is based on the judgment that each floating point represents a word. If this judgment is wrong, then naturally the correct result will not be obtained."

Xia Ruofei nodded and said: "Yes! I also highly doubt it now. Our basic judgment at the beginning may be wrong."

From the beginning to the end, Xia Ruofei did not think that what was recorded in the Dragon Order was a practice.

Because he has more information than Chen Xuan, Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha.

He had already learned from Yuntai Layman that the floating-point pattern on the Token of Rising Dragon would change, basically every fifty years or so.

If what is recorded is exercises, how can the content be changed?

Even because of the characteristics of this periodic change, Xia Ruofei faintly felt that it seemed unreasonable for each floating point to represent a word early in the morning.

It's just that everyone feels that this judgment is a big step forward, and it is very close to the truth, so Xia Ruofei and Chen Xuan further optimized the algorithm on this basis.

Now it seems that it is really possible that there is a problem with the basic judgment.

Xia Ruofei hesitated, whether to tell everyone about the periodic change of the floating point pattern.

It is undoubtedly more conducive to brainstorming, but the biggest problem is that he cannot explain the source of this news.

Prior to this, the entire cultivation world had never collected five tokens, let alone knowing that five tokens would be combined into a Dragon Token. How did Xia Ruofei know that the floating-point pattern on the Dragon Token would change periodically? Woolen cloth?

What's more, this cycle is still fifty years, and Xia Ruofei is only in his twenties!

Xia Ruofei hesitated again and again, and finally decided not to say it for the time being.

After all, it would be unreasonable for him to push all the blame on the unfounded Master Yuanying. There is no record of the Dragon Ascension Order in the cultivation world, so how did Senior Yuanying know it?

Xia Ruofei pondered for a moment, and said: "Seniors, and Brother Chen, let's study the token again! Maybe there is some information that we have ignored that we haven't found!"

Mu Sheng nodded and said, "That's all..."

Liu Mansha asked: "Fellow Daoist Xia, do you want to combine everyone's tokens together?"

After a high-definition scan of the Forbidden City, everyone disassembled the tokens and stored them separately.

Xia Ruofei thought for a while and said, "Let's look at the scanned image first! If you find nothing, let's combine the tokens!"

The resolution of the scanned image is extremely high, basically all the details are preserved, and it can be arbitrarily enlarged in the computer, which is more conducive to observing the details of the token.

Xia Ruofei opened the scanned image on the laptop.

Everyone gathered behind Xia Ruofei, observing and analyzing the picture silently.

At this time, everyone was somewhat depressed. After all, they had always felt that they were very close to the answer, and the front had been going very smoothly. They did not expect that the final result would give everyone a blow.

Xia Ruofei's mood was not greatly affected. After opening the scanned image, he stared at the computer screen without blinking.

Sometimes he observes the full picture of the floating dot pattern, and sometimes he zooms in so that a single floating dot occupies the entire screen, carefully observing the black dot pattern on the floating dot.

After a while, Xia Ruofei said, "Since the possibility of these floating-point patterns being text is already very low, then... do you think it may represent numbers?"

Chen Xuan showed a thoughtful look, and said: "It's not impossible, numbers may represent coordinates, or they may be passwords, so in fact, there are many scenarios where numbers are used in encrypted content."

Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha didn't have much contact with this aspect, but they also had their own thoughts.

Mu Sheng said: "Brother Xia, if it is a number, even if it is deciphered, we will not be able to judge whether it is correct or not!"

Words can also be logically judged through contextual connections, so how to judge numbers?

If it is a wrong result, if you try to crack the digital code based on this result, you are running in the wrong direction, and you will never get the correct result.

After pondering for a moment, Xia Ruofei said: "If each floating-point pattern represents a number or a group of numbers, then the answer should be unique, and there are not many possibilities. But there is still one thing, that must be based on On the premise that this judgment is correct, it is the same as before, if the judgment is wrong, then the resulting numbers will be useless."

Liu Mansha said, "Why don't you try it first?"

Chen Xuanlue pondered for a while, and then said: "Brother Xia, let's try again according to this direction! Don't we still have a few hours of machine time? According to the direction of digital deciphering, the amount of calculation should not be very large, and there is enough time of!"

Xia Ruofei nodded and said: "Okay! We have to reserve at least two hours to modify the algorithm!"

Chen Xuan also used his brain and said: "In each floating-point pattern, there are almost sixty or seventy black dots. The total number is not constant, and the combination of rows and columns is also not constant, so the judgment and comparison in the algorithm is a comparison. Many."

Xia Ruofei nodded and said: "Yes! In addition, we also need to consider the possibility that the answer to this number is binary, octal, or hexadecimal. After all, we don't know anything now, so we can't just assume that it is in decimal!"

"Then the workload will be even greater!" Chen Xuan said with a slight frown.

Xia Ruofei shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "You have to try even if you have a lot of work! Besides, there is no way to break down the work. I can only complete it by myself. Brother Chen will help me check for gaps and make up for the omissions!"
