As a medical concubine

Chapter 14 Deciphering (1) ([-])
Hua Zhu took the cipher box in his hand again, pointed to the words in the grid and said: "These are Arabic numerals, oh, the Arabian Empire is the Great Cannibal. But these numbers were not created by the Great Cannibal, they originated in Tianzhu, only But the big cannibals spread them, and people thought the numbers were invented by the big cannibals."

"You mean, these weird characters...are numbers?"

"Yeah, look, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, that little skinny circle reads 'Zero'."

After Huazhu finished speaking, she found that Nian Zhengyuan was confused, knowing that this dynasty did not have a numerical title like "zero", so she explained: "It's just 'no', and we Northern Qi people use cubes to replace it."

"Oh." Nian Junxi touched his chin thoughtfully, then pointed to the woman on the cipher box and asked, "Who is she, and what does she do with him?"

Huazhu held up the cryptex and pointed it at the sunlight, "Who says they are husband and wife? Her name is Diana, and the man's name is Apollo. They are a pair of twin siblings."

Nian Junxi's face was a little ashamed.

Hua Zhu said again: "It is said that Apollo was born exceptionally handsome, intelligent and kind, and is the god in charge of light. The white box reflects his characteristics well."

Nian Junxi thought, why haven't I heard of it?After thinking about it, I changed the question, "Since that pineapple is in charge of light, his sister is the god in charge of darkness?"

Huazhu shook her head, "His sister is also in charge of light, but it is the light at night. She is called the goddess of the moon, and the weapon in her hand is called the 'Crescent Moon Blade'."

Nian Junxi was ashamed, she didn't guess right even once!Gritting his teeth, he took the cipher box and looked at it from front to back. "The whole body is black, let alone the moon, and I can't even see a trace of moonlight."

Saying that, he smiled arrogantly, "The craftsmanship of the big cannibal is nothing more than that!"

Huazhu stood up, stared at the cipher box, and her eyes gradually darkened, "It's not that I can't see it, but that it doesn't exist at all! It used to exist, but now it doesn't exist, that is... no more! Moonlight is her No more moonlight means no more power. But... what kind of thing, or what kind of accident, can make her no longer have power?"

Hua Zhu was puzzled, talking to herself while pacing around the room.

"Take away your moonlight, take away your power, but the moon rises almost every night, how to take it away? It doesn't make sense!" At this point, Hua Zhu suddenly stopped and raised her head, "I can't think of her How and by whom power was taken away should be the key to deciphering the code."

Nian Junxi was furious, "Didn't you read the files? If you forgot, I'll take you to the Yamen archives!"

What turn?This is what she learned from others in her previous life.Huazhu rubbed her neck and said, "Who remembers so much when I watched it when I was a child? Besides, didn't there be a big fire in the archives room? Maybe it burned down."

This incident is real, and it happened when Liao Zicheng's father was appointed as an official. Because he destroyed a lot of important materials and couldn't catch the murderer, Mr. Liao felt guilty and his health went from bad to worse, so he finally passed away.

Nian Junxi felt that he was only a few steps away from success, but Pian Huazhu's inspiration was interrupted. Nian Junxi felt as if he saw a piece of fat floating in front of him, but he couldn't eat it anyway, scratching his heart and lungs!

After leaving the Zixia Pavilion, Huazhu led Qiaoer back to the Begonia Courtyard.

Mrs. Ni was very generous, not only gave her gold thread, spices, top-quality velvet quilt, but also a brightly colored satin for Qiaoer.

Huazhu looked sideways and asked Xiang Qiaoer: "Do you like it?"

Qiaoer was taken aback for a moment, then replied shyly, "I like it."

Hua Zhu raised her eyebrows and said, "Like it? Then you have to learn to reject others, and also learn to protect what you like."

Entering the Begonia Courtyard, Xiuyun and Xianghe were sitting on the porch basking in the sun, knocking sunflower seeds by the way, and when they saw Huazhu, they called out "Second Miss" perfunctorily.

Huazhu didn't seem to be angry, and walked into the room as if nothing had happened.

Qiaoer also wanted to follow in, but was stopped by Xiuyun and the two. They both grabbed the cloth in Qiaoer's hand and said in unison: "Your?"

Qiao'er blinked, stared at the crabapple tree in front of her and said, "Well, the eldest young lady rewarded you."

Xiuyun spat out the melon seeds in her mouth, and said with a smile: "How about sharing half with me? I still have a few fruits, and I'll give them to you!"

"You want to exchange a few fruits for half a piece of cloth, you are so heartless!" Xianghe glanced at Xiuyun, and said to Qiao'er, "I will exchange mine for you, half a piece for half a piece."

Qiaoer frowned at them.

Xiuyun smiled coldly, and pushed Xianghe away, "What's so good about your pea-green satin? You're so old-fashioned! Qiaoer, I'm going to offer incense in two days. I'll ask you for a talisman and another one." The marriage lottery guarantees that you will marry a good husband's family in the future!"

As soon as the words fell, Hua Zhu pushed open the door and walked out of the yard quickly!

After serving the second lady for many years, the three servant girls had never seen her look so fierce, and immediately knelt on the ground in fright.

Qiao'er was the first to react, and put the cloth into the hands of the two, "It's up to you to share the love!" She followed quickly!
Huazhu arrived at Zixia Pavilion as quickly as possible. Nian Junxi was a little tired after driving the waterway for several days, and was about to take a rest. The servant girl announced that Huazhu was coming, so he immediately dressed up and called Huazhu to come in.

Huazhu didn't go around with him, and said straight to the point: "Moonlight represents power, and no more moonlight means no more power. This kind of guess is correct! But the guess about power, I went into a misunderstanding! Think about it, power What does that mean?"

"Do whatever you want! Once you have the power, you can do whatever you want!"

Huazhu sighed, and could no longer count on this big brother, "Power represents domination, conquest, and protection! In turn, it means people's obedience, submission, and asylum to her! If it were you, you would be here Where to seek refuge with a god?"

"temple?"

"That's right!"

Nian Junxi chuckled secretly, and finally guessed right once, didn't he?

But... what does this have to do with opening the cryptex?
Nian Junxi was about to ask a question, but Huazhu had already pressed a row of numbers on the other side, only to hear a "crack", and another piece of metal broke inside!
