In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 30 Deciphering the Ancient Scriptures!

"what?"

Chen Jinxin had been watching it and it already felt familiar.

Xie Lingxin finished drawing and took a closer look before confirming it.

He let out a soft "hmm," said nothing, got up, searched the bookshelf at the back for a while, and then came back with a book in his hand.

"Look, is this what you're looking for?"

She flipped directly to one of the pages and handed it to me.

Xie Lingxin painted the scene he saw: a lantern bearer walking at night, and the shadows of a city in the mountains.

Upon seeing the pages Chen Jinxin had opened, he was immediately delighted.

The above records the clothing of a certain dynasty during the Zuxing era.

That's all; it doesn't even specify which dynasty it belongs to.

Chen Jin thought to himself, "So far, the Federation has deduced that the ancestral star period was only a few thousand years long, but it can be divided into at least a dozen different periods."

"In ancient times, they were called 'dynasties,' and what's recorded here is a dynasty that still exists only in speculation,"

"Because no one has discovered the legendary realm of that period yet, it is only because the Federation scholars obtained some historical materials from that period in a certain high-level realm and thus deduced it."

“When I was on the Central Star, I happened to see some related research. Scholars speculated that this dynasty might be called ‘Jin’, but it’s not a definitive conclusion yet, so it hasn’t been made public.”

That's it!

Xie Lingxin was overjoyed.

He already had a general idea of ​​what the clothes were like.

Chen Jinxin's words gave him certainty.

This is clothing from the Wei and Jin Dynasties!
Song Dynasty, Night Journey, Wan, 1500...

It means that a person from the Wei and Jin Dynasties was traveling at night with a lantern, heading to a town called "Wan".

"1500" naturally refers to that string of copper coins, 1500 coins.

Xie Lingxin felt an itch on her scalp, as if something was trying to crawl out.

He knew he was close to grasping the key.

These few fragments of characters definitely came from an article he was very familiar with.

No, I have to go back right away!
"Thank you!"

Xie Lingxin didn't care about anything else. She grabbed the girl's shoulder, shook her hard, and ran out in a flash.

"Hey! You..."

Chen Jinxin was about to call out to stop him when he had already disappeared from sight.

"……May I have your name?"

He finally managed to say something.

Chen Jinxin pouted slightly, somewhat annoyed that this person was ungrateful.

He seemed to be lost in some kind of memory.

Brother Ling, is that you...?
Although Chen Lingguan looked exactly like the Ling-gege she remembered, she always felt that he was different.

She did have her doubts, but she was too young at the time and couldn't be sure that her feelings were right.

Moreover, that woman is his mother, and she insists that it is. How could a mother mistake her own son?
But seeing this person today rekindled her almost forgotten doubts.

"Ugh……"

He sighed, somewhat displeased.

Fortunately, he seems to be in the Department of Ancient Classics. Since we're already in the same school, we should have a chance to meet again in the future...

……

Xie Lingxin left Seven Star Academy and headed straight back to the Environmental Protection Bureau.

Although it's an outside area, there are people on duty here 24 hours a day.

He plunged into the antiquities management office and retrieved page number 19.

I copied those six characters over and over again.

I watched that scene over and over again.

The more I look at it, the more familiar this scene seems.

I don't know how much time passed or how many times I watched it, but then a sudden inspiration struck me.

"That's right!"

Xie Lingxin slammed her hand on the table and stood up abruptly, muttering to herself as if it were a conditioned reflex etched into her bones, and a passage of text slipped out.

"that's it!"

Xie Lingxin grabbed the paper and pen and began to write with lightning speed.

Song Dingbo of Nanyang, in his youth, encountered a ghost while traveling at night...

The question was asked, "Who are you?" The ghost replied, "A ghost."

The ghost asked, "Who are you?" Dingbo lied, saying, "I am also a ghost." The ghost asked, "Where do you wish to go?" He replied, "To the market of Wan."...

[...He arrived at the market in Wan. He landed on the ground, and it transformed into a sheep, which he then sold. Fearing it might transform again, he spat on it. He received 1500 coins and then left.]

"Song Dingbo Catches Ghosts!"
That's it!

As Xie Lingfei finished reading an article from his memory, a smile spread across his face. "Thank you, country."

Thank you for compulsory education.

I'm grateful that I was a good student in my past life.

I also have to thank Chen Jinxin for reminding me.

Fortunately, he had cultivated his consciousness, and his past memories remained as fresh as ever.

After the initial excitement and joy came a sense of relief.

The entire article was so incomplete that only those six characters remained.

If I didn't have so many prerequisites, it would have been impossible to decipher this fragment using conventional methods.

He simply couldn't imagine how the scribes of this world could do such a thing.

No wonder Jin Su and Jiang Daqiu kept emphasizing to themselves how difficult it is to become a scripture master.

"Oh? You're here pretty early today."

Jiang Daqiu's voice came through.

Xie Lingxin was startled, and then a feeling of weakness washed over her, followed by dizziness and lightheadedness.

"what happened?"

Seeing his pale face, Jiang Daqiu couldn't help but ask with concern.

"It's nothing, I just didn't sleep well last night."

Xie Lingxin covered her head, which felt like it was being pricked by needles, and realized that it was already broad daylight outside.

It's already been a night?

I spent the whole night repeatedly copying and watching the fragments in my memory anchors, which consumed too much of my energy.

No wonder he's so weak.

"Uncle Jiang, I'm hungry, let's go get some breakfast."

After saying that, he stuffed the paper into his pocket and left.

"Hey hey~"

Seeing him disappear in a flash, Jiang Daqiu shook his head. Seeing the ancient scripture fragments on the table, he shook his head and sighed, "This kid, still not given up?"

canteen.

Xie Lingxin hugged the rice bowl and sang wildly. After eating two pounds of rice, she regained some strength.

After cleaning up their dishes, they left the cafeteria.

He touched his chest, thought for a moment, and then took out his phone to call Jin Su.

Jin Su answered after it rang for a while, her voice as calm and pleasant as ever: "What is it?"

Xie Lingxin smiled and said proudly, "Sister, I did it!"

"Ok?"

Jin Su seemed puzzled for a moment before realizing, "Number 19?"

Xie Lingxin didn't care whether she could see it or not, and nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

There seemed to be a moment of silence on the other end before the voice spoke again: "Are you at the station?"

"Yes."

"wait for me."

Hang up when you're done.

He scratched his head and returned to the ancient management office.

In fact, he had considered secretly finding the coordinates of the ancient scripture's transmission realm.

However, deciphering the ancient scriptures is only the first step; finding the coordinates is another matter entirely.

Although the book mentions a method for finding coordinates, it requires the mind to enter the spiritual world.

This step is fraught with hidden danger.

Even if you successfully find the coordinates and enter the domain.

The realm itself is also fraught with danger.

Moreover, Jin Su had previously mentioned that this might be a ten-fold realm.

Xie Lingxin was someone who valued her life.

Given that he has the Environmental Protection Bureau as a powerful backer, why is he making things difficult for himself?
Don't be too clever for your own good and end up losing your life; that would be ridiculous.

Since she had deciphered the scriptures and had a beautiful older sister around, Xie Lingxin didn't believe the bureau would mistreat her.

Surely it won't be difficult to get a chance to enter the realm together then?

Even if the bureau were to abandon him after using him, he could still face reality, and it would still be worthwhile.

Therefore, Xie Lingxin was not worried at all.

Jin Su returned quickly, indicating that this was indeed an important matter, enough to make her drop everything else.

Jin Su summoned Xie Lingxin to her office and asked seriously, "You really cracked it?"
