063. Totem
Speaking of which, if it weren't for seeing the qualitative change in the parchment at that moment, if it weren't for seeing it with my own eyes, everyone wouldn't be willing to believe it was a bottle of holy water, even Feng Heng himself would be the same.
When Feng Heng poured the bottle of liquid called holy water on the parchment paper, the parchment quickly repaired all the loopholes on it and various tiny, invisible stains at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Wherever the water flows, the handwriting becomes clear and even the lines of the pattern become clear.
After Feng Heng poured all the liquid on the parchment paper, he seemed to be tailor-made for the parchment paper. After pouring the liquid, the holy water just soaked the entire piece of parchment paper.
The parchment paper absorbed all the moisture like a sponge. When Feng Heng tentatively touched it, he felt dryness.
While sighing at the magical phenomenon of game items, Feng Heng looked at the pattern on the parchment.
The pattern is very strange, not the iconic pattern drawn by ordinary children, such as the sun, moon, huts, trees, etc. It is completely different from these. It is not that everyone has a problem with their understanding ability, but that the nature of this pattern is the same as the properties of the strange patterns of the hexagrams.
"I feel like this is something."
In the quiet air, everyone's breathing sounds came, and they were all thinking about the meaning of this pattern.
At this time, Chu Yi's somewhat tender voice came.
"Tell me?"
"Sister Chu, do you remember the copy we played before, the map called [Primitive Jungle]?"
Chu Yi did not answer directly, but threw the question to Chu You, his sister.
"Remember, in order to escape the attack of the savages, we were almost stung to death by a large group of primitive wasps. If I hadn't been my witty and led these savages to the territory of those savages, we would have been eliminated long ago. What's wrong?"
Recalling the game experience between her and her younger brother Chu Yi, Chu You could tell her story, but what made her strange was that she was clearly discussing the meaning of this pattern, why did her younger brother bring the topic elsewhere.
Wait, it's not right.
Chu You suddenly remembered something, remembering that in this map, as players, their only enemy is the savage tribe in the depths of the jungle. Just primitive people and savages are not enough to make them so panic.
Mainly there are some weird things among those primitive tribes.
They painted some strange patterns on the wood and worshiped every day, thus gaining some primitive and natural power.
Although it sounds mysterious, it is indeed something that happens, and many books record these things.
From the mouths of several foreign survivors imprisoned in the savage tribes, Chu You and Chu Yi realized that these woods were called totems, and these woods were ordinary woods themselves, but as long as the patterns were drawn correctly, they could gain the power from these totems when worshiping.
So the question is, what are these patterns? How to draw them to make these patterns accurate?
They didn't know these two questions, but they just knew that these woods with strange patterns were called totems.
Then, Chu You seemed to understand what Chu Yi meant.
"You want to say that this pattern looks like a totem?"
Chu You asked tentatively, although it was a sibling, the question and answer between the two was still a bit biased.
But this time, Chu You's guess was very accurate, and Chu Yi wanted to say this.
"Yes, I think the most likely thing that can appear in this ancient tomb is totem."
Chu Yi nodded slightly, he looked up at Feng Heng who was looking at him, and listed his reasons.
"The first one, such a strange pattern can easily remind people of similar patterns such as hexagrams. What hexagrams record in some books is that the Solomon seals, and these patterns usually make people feel that there is a mysterious force contained in it, and the same is true for totems."
"Of course, I know that this one alone cannot be convinced, so there is a second one."
"The second one, the name of this game map is [Thousand-year Tomb]. This is well known, right, and the history of totem can also be traced back to thousands of years ago. Perhaps this is a coincidence, but it can appear in the tomb and be recorded by this person on this piece of paper. It must have a special meaning."
Chu Yi paused and looked up at Feng Heng.
"So that's my reason, I think this is a totem pattern."
"From these two points, from a one-sided perspective, it may be right, but if you really want to pick them up, you won't be able to pick them out." Feng Heng pondered for a while, and slowly expressed his point of view. "But, I still chose Chu Yi's answer, and I also think it's a bit like a totem."
Everyone pondered, and the intense atmosphere turned into calm again, and Chu Yi and Feng Heng seemed a little embarrassed.
"I just compared my thoughts, and I also think what Chu Yi said is right."
When Chu Yi expressed his opinion, Chu You kept dragging his chin there, nodding thoughtfully, and frowned. Now when he thought about it, Chu Yi's viewpoint was still relatively comprehensive, so she certainly accepted it.
"However, I saw the lower right corner of this parchment paper, and the line of English letters, and it felt something was wrong. Can I take a look?"
After getting the parchment paper, Chu You seemed very excited. Then, in full view, he picked up the pistol on the coffin lid, shook his head constantly, looked at the parchment paper, and looked at the pistol, making people feel extremely stupid.
"My English is not very good, but I can also guess what this line of English means."
Chu You pointed to the line in English at the lower right corner of the parchment paper, with two words "joseph·white" written on it.
"The word white is interpreted in the noun, and through the previous point, it can be seen that this should be a name. In the name, white is transliterated as 'White'."
"And joseph, without a noun, is the existence of a name, and the transliteration is 'Joseph'."
"Then the transliteration explanation of this line of English connection should be, [Joseph White], don't rush to refute it first. Let's look at the pistol description dialog box, and the name on it, can you connect with something?"
Feng Heng took the lead in picking up the pistol and looked at the description box.
There are a few big words on it—
【Joseph White’s Pistol】.
All the clues are connected at this moment.
