It’s not that I’ve never been to another world, but this is the first time I’ve seen buildings like houses. Maybe this is not a different world, maybe what I’ve seen before is just the tip of the iceberg, and it’s not comprehensive. In short, this ghost place will appear. The house really exceeded my expectations.
I looked at those houses with twinkling eyes, weighing whether I should touch them and have a look. After pondering for a moment, I made the decision to go there. Maybe there was danger there, but I couldn't help but feel curious. It was like a certain person suddenly appeared on the way to school that I had been to hundreds of times. A new building, even if you feel it is dangerous, you will be curious to take a closer look.
That's what I'm like now, and no matter how dangerous it is there, how dangerous it can be. It's not yet night, so there can't be five werewolves there, so I plan to go and have a look.
"Ye Yan, what are you looking at?"
Su Mengmeng had already sat down to rest, and was rubbing her legs. Seeing me looking solemnly into the distance, she couldn't help but ask.
"There is a building over there, it seems to be a house." I pointed in the direction of the building and said slowly.
Su Mengmeng looked in the direction my hand was pointing for a long time, and then murmured: "Well, it looks like a building." At this point, Su Mengmeng looked at me in surprise and said: " Ye Yan, what is your eyesight? You can see clearly from such a distance."
"5.3." I said calmly: "Let's go take a look. Just follow me."
"Oh" Su Mengmeng followed, holding a dagger in her hand.
I gave this dagger to her. Except when I prepared it, I put two in each military backpack. I gave one to Su Mengmeng for self-defense.
According to reports, she originally brought a steel pipe, but it was eaten by the piranha, so when I saw her, she was empty-handed.
Low-lethal weapons like steel pipes are almost useless for a weak girl. However, with Su Mengmeng's confused character, it is already good to prepare a weapon. However, this is also due to my timely arrival. , otherwise she would have to live with her pole.
As we approached, the outline of the building appeared. Rather than a building, it would be more suitable for a group of buildings. At first glance, it looked like there were about a dozen buildings. These buildings are somewhat different from those in China. Most of the buildings in China are tall, and most of these buildings are one to three stories, and they look more like foreign buildings.
Among them, there is one building that is quite special, because that building is much taller than the other buildings. It is estimated to have four or five floors.
Su Mengmeng and I stood in front of these buildings with expressions of surprise on our faces.
"Is there someone in this ghost place?" Su Mengmeng couldn't help but ask.
"Who knows?" I shook my head. I really don't know. I have never been to another world a few times. Judging from the vastness of the other world, I may not have seen everything. Moreover, I am not sure now that this is another world. world.
"Then let's go in and take a look!" Su Mengmeng suggested.
I had this plan, so I nodded and said: "Follow me closely and be careful."
"Yeah." Su Mengmeng responded.
Like the places I passed before, this place was quiet without a trace of sound. It didn't look like an inhabited place at all. In fact, I didn't think anyone might be here.
Su Mengmeng and I quietly came to the front building. This was a one-story house and the area was not very large. I thought about it and decided to take a look at this house first.
The reason why I chose this building is because this floor is at the outermost level and there are woods behind us. There is no danger because we came from that way.
But if I go inside, I have to be careful about whether something will suddenly come out of the back and surrounding buildings.
Moreover, this building is easier to observe.
We walked around to where the door was, and then I was surprised to find that the door was actually a wooden door.
I gently pulled the door handle, and unexpectedly it opened immediately. It turned out that the door was unlocked.
I opened the door.
"Squeak."
This house seemed to have been covered in dust for many years. As soon as I opened the door, it made a creaking sound. As soon as I entered, it was full of dust, which was a bit choking. The sunlight came in from the window in front of me, making it The whole room became completely white.
The floor inside was also made of wood, covered with a layer of dust. Other than that, there was nothing unusual, because there was nothing else in this room except a carpet.
I stepped in slowly, and there was even a shallow footprint on the ground. It can be imagined that there was a lot of dust in this room.
Su Mengmeng followed behind me. She was very nervous at this time, with a look of fear on her face, and she was holding the dagger tightly in her hand.
I walked to the blanket and looked at it carefully for a while. I didn't find anything special. It was just an ordinary blanket.
I lifted up the carpet again, and this action brought up a lot of dust, causing Su Mengmeng to cover her mouth hurriedly and narrow her eyes.
There is nothing under the carpet, only wooden floors. It seems that there is no shit in this room, but there is a door on the left and right sides of this room.
I opened the nearest door on the right first. This door was also a broken wooden door. I guess all the doors in this house are wooden. After I opened the door on the right, I found that there was a bathroom inside, but it was pitiful and simple, with only a toilet.
There is water in the toilet, but I don't think there is a water monster hiding in it. Even if there is, I won't check it because the toilet smells bad and there are yellow stains around the toilet, which is very disgusting. I see There was no danger, so I closed the wooden door, and the smell immediately reduced a lot.
Then you can only open the left door. After the left door is opened, there is an empty living room with a table and a bunch of chairs. On the table, there are a bunch of plates and bowls, but there is no food in it. There is nothing but these things.
Next to the living room is the kitchen. The living room and the kitchen are the same. I originally expected to find two knives or something in the kitchen, but I didn't expect that there was nothing there except some pots and pans and a sink.
There is nothing of value in this house, at least so far. I wonder what kind of shabby house this is. There is no one, and there are not many things in it. The word "shabby" is not an exaggeration to describe it. .
There is another door on the left side of the living room. I didn't have any expectations for this room at first, but when I saw the scene behind the door, my eyes suddenly lit up.
This should be a bedroom with a bed, a desk, and a bookshelf with a few scattered books on it.
This is not the most attractive place to me. What attracts me most is a black box on the ground.
In the center of the floor of the entire room, a black box suddenly appeared. It was hard not to catch my attention. In fact, Su Mengmeng also noticed the box immediately after entering.
"Ah! Ye Yan, there is a box here!" Su Mengmeng exclaimed.
"I saw it." I nodded.
There was not only one box on the ground, but also four pieces of paper and a note scattered beside it.
"Is there something inside?" Su Mengmeng was curious.
"It's possible." I squatted next to the box and looked back and forth before realizing that the box was locked with a four-digit code.
I didn't think I could break him violently, but I was not discouraged. Instead, I looked at the four pieces of paper and the note on the ground. These things suddenly appeared here. There may be some hints. Ghost Master One of the abilities that we publish tasks for the postgraduate entrance examination is intelligence, so it is not surprising that there are prompts.
No, there are some tips.
Those four pieces of paper were densely packed with words. They were probably from a certain book. There were too many words. I was looking at this for a while, so I looked at that piece of paper first. There were few words on this piece of paper!
There were a few numbers on it. Su Mengmeng came to my side and gently read out the contents of the note. The light voice was particularly clear in the empty room.
"The password for the combination lock can only be entered three times. If you enter the wrong password three times in a row, it will be locked."
Are there three chances? I thought to myself.
I turned the note over to the back again, and there were words on the back too!
"In this box, there is what you want." - Sun Yu
"Oh?" I suddenly became interested. Although I didn't know what "I wanted" in this box, I thought I might as well open it and take a look to see what good things were inside.
However, this box is locked, and in order to open it, I need to know the password.
I think this note can’t be nonsense, right? Since it is not nonsense, it means that there must be a prompt, and looking at it, the only ones that are most likely to be prompts are the four pieces of paper scattered on the ground.
I picked up these four pieces of paper and read them carefully. Unfortunately, I couldn't see even one number from the contents on these four pieces of paper, let alone four numbers or four digits.
Looking over it, I think the only thing that can be the password to the lockbox is the page numbers marked at the bottom of these four pieces of paper.
However, this page number doesn’t look like a password to me.
The page numbers of these four pages are 4, 20, 33, and 46 respectively.
The password can't be 4203346, right? How many are here? The password is four digits.
Could it be the last digit of the four page numbers 4, 20, 33, and 46, 4036?
I thought about it for a while, but couldn't think of any other possibilities. I gritted my teeth and decided to give it a try. What if I guessed it right?
So I entered 4036.
The outcome was a mistake, the lock did not open, and the four-digit password was reset to 0000.
wrong? I frowned. 4036 is wrong. Is it because the order of numbers is wrong, or is the correct password the first digit of the four page numbers?
I thought about it carefully and felt that both of these conjectures were incorrect. No matter how I looked at it, this box did not seem to use paper page numbers as passwords.
I think the direction I was thinking was wrong.
So, what details are there that I haven't noticed.
I frowned and looked at each paper.
Judging from the texture and size of these four pieces of paper, it seems that these four pieces of paper are from the same book?
Thinking of this, I looked up at the bookshelf. There were several books scattered on the bookshelf. I flipped through them one by one, and I actually found a book with missing pages, and the missing pages of this book happened to be the four pages on the ground. It seems that the four pieces of paper on the ground are from this book.
This book is called Death Homework, and the author is Xiaoyao Deyao. I don’t know why, when I saw this book, even though it was very old and covered with dust, I still felt a sense of intimacy. It’s as if this book is destined for me
Putting aside the strange thoughts in my mind, I began to observe this book.
The four words "Death Job" in the title of the work caught my attention. Could it be that the password is actually the number of strokes in the title of the work? Take a closer look. The number of strokes in these four characters is all in single digits. There are six strokes in the character "death", three strokes in the character "death", seven strokes in the character "zuo", and five strokes in the character "karma". Is that 6375?
Since these four pieces of paper come from a book called 'Death Work', then the password must have something to do with this book, right? The more I thought about it, the more likely it was, so I entered 6375
Originally I was full of confidence, but the result turned out to be a huge disappointment. I was wrong again!
I was a little crazy at the time. I guessed twice and got it wrong, except for the last time! If I guess wrong next time, the contents of this box will be destined to miss me!
So, what exactly is the password? Where is the answer?
I was a little irritated because I couldn't think of an answer, and sweat broke out on my forehead. I looked back and forth between the four pieces of paper and the book, hoping to find some clues that I hadn't observed.
One minute, three minutes passed, five minutes passed and I still didn't think of the answer. During this process, Su Mengmeng stood by and did not dare to speak for fear of disturbing my train of thought.
I was flipping through this book a little irritably. To be honest, I was very irritable at this time. You can have whatever you like in this box. I kind of wanted to give up.
However, at this moment, a number caught my eye, which made my eyes light up slightly.
This is a capital word, which comes from the chapter name.
This chapter is called Chapter 1: Weird Homework.
"Huh?" I flipped through the book a few times, and the light in my eyes became brighter and brighter.
I found that these four page numbers, 4, 20, 33, and 46, are in Chapter 1, Chapter 4, Chapter 6, and Chapter 9 respectively, which exactly correspond to four numbers, 1469.
Could this be the password?
Maybe the password is not this, maybe the order of the passwords is not from ascending to greatest, but I don’t care so much now. Anyway, it’s just one chance. If it’s right, it’s right. If it’s wrong, forget it. At the worst, I don’t want the things in this box.
I held my breath and entered the four digits.
"Click."
The lock is unlocked.
