"I just found out today that their scientific names are Chinese characters." Gerard Chevalier raised his head and glanced at "The Man of Heaven" in a puzzled manner:

"Your Excellency, I haven't studied history, and I don't understand art even more. Many of the words just now are hearsay, if it causes trouble to you--"

"There is no trouble." Suo Zhongwu interrupted him eagerly:

"Please tell me the relevant information you have learned. This matter is very important and may even be related to the truth. I mean, the truth about the origin of the monster."

"So important?" Gerrard gasped, his right hand tilted abruptly, and he pulled out several brown beards:

"Hey—I knew it earlier. I asked a few more people to inquire about it. Every day, artists visit the Duke, as well as guest scholars from the university, but I only cared about—forget it, the mess in my youth was not worth it. Just a mention. Let me think about it, dear sir, they mentioned a lot about Chinese characters, let me think about it..."

Think about it, talk about it.Talk about it, think about it.Gerard Chevalier kept repeating this cycle, talking intermittently for ten minutes before pouring out all the pieces of intelligence.

According to him, artists seeking funding from the duke usually refer to Chinese characters as "square decorative characters."Ancient symbols handed down with one of them, there are "bar decorative lines" and "endless labyrinth seal".All three are from ancient magic items, and the latter two are even more common.

However, the "striped decorative pattern" is too concise, only popular in the apostasy around AD 500, and then abandoned by mainstream culture.The "Endless Labyrinth Seal" has long been regarded as a dangerous item by the church, and it is generally only studied in theology classes.Some daring mystic scholars occasionally use these seals for divination. Gerrard tried once, but he wasted two livres, only to get a bunch of unbearable good words. Feel a disadvantage.

Compared with these two symbols, the situation of Chinese characters is much better.For thousands of years, artists have used it as a decorative pattern on oil painting frames, bronze statue bases, garden colonnades and even heraldic rings.It is said that some hereditary mage families can still read this ancient text and can accurately explain the meaning of words; but Gerrard has only seen hereditary mage once in New Poitiers, and there is no opportunity to speak up. , This statement can neither be verified nor falsified.

Suo Zhongwu wrote down all the introductions of the village master without missing a word.When Gerard Chevalier soothed his throat with red wine, he couldn't wait to ask a bunch of questions, two of which involved "bar decoration patterns", and the rest were all around the "Endless Labyrinth Seal."

Under continuous questioning, the master of Kotweimel, who had achieved great achievements in battle, couldn't help becoming nervous.But his thinking can still be kept clear, even in the divination after many years, the details can be recalled seven or eight."There is no proof." At the end, Gerrard simply squatted on the ground, picked up a membrane-winged arrow, and slashed it on the muddy ground:

"I can't recover the whole picture. I can only draw a rough outline." The master of the village swiped a little while sweating as he explained:

"The seal is square. Square. The four corners-no, they are three corners. Three of them have smaller black squares on them. The rest are staggered black and white dots. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a silly painting. But the old man insisted--sir, are you uncomfortable in any way?"

"It's okay. I probably know what the'Endless Labyrinth Seal' is." Suo Zhongwu was also sweating profusely, his fingers smashed on the holographic projection screen, and he could feel the cold water vapor through the flame retardant gloves:

"Wait a minute, I need to connect to my personal phone and move a photo from the gallery. Three days ago...no, it was taken four days ago. I found it, this is this one, wait a minute, I need to take the picture Partially zoomed in. Okay, Mr. Zhaizhu, did you see this pattern in that fortune-teller shop?"

"This—Your Excellency, Honorable Excellency!" Gerrard was dumbfounded, his two eyeballs almost flew out of his eye sockets:

"You are, where did you get this? The one above is exactly the same, exactly the same! Ancient empire, ancient empire, could it be said that the ancient emperor—"

It may be that he was so excited that he suddenly lost his balance and almost sat down on the ground.The four veterans headed by Paul the Great rushed forward and hurriedly raised the commander, but their eyes were also firmly attracted by the pictures on the holographic projection screen, as if they were obsessed with it. open.

Suo Zhongwu shook his head, as if pouring a box of spicy chicken wings flavored Oreo in his heart, he couldn't help but feel the pressure.What he showed to these local colleagues was the canned condensed milk that he bought at the second shop four days ago. As usual, the manufacturer’s anti-counterfeiting QR code was printed on it.That's right.Any product is indispensable, the black and white QR code.

If Gerrard is telling the truth, this pattern of squares that can be seen everywhere in the 22nd century (including the 21st century, of course) has not only become one of the three mysteries of the ancient empire, it has also been deeply jealous by the church. Become a "witchcraft spell" respected by mystics.[Who wrote the script?It's ridiculous!

The true face of the "bar-shaped decorative pattern" can now also be inferred: they are 100% barcodes, appearing earlier than QR codes, and one of the two essential humhas for mobile payments.From this point of view, the unearthed magic items should be just ordinary commodity packaging. The so-called "ancient empire ruins" may have unusually large moisture.[It's just the ruins of the buried supermarket.Ordinary apartment buildings are not impossible.

The reason for the Chinese characters appearing on "Magic Items" is even simpler.Since the end of the 20th century, Huaxia products have been sold globally, and "MadeinChina" can be found in supermarkets in all countries in the world.Some stubborn "global vision" bosses will indeed sell the square characters in trademarks and slogans, but keep the Chinese characters upright and don't care about the entrepreneurs attacked by ghosts. There are also many.

[The products shipped from these factories were transported by water, land and air, and then to a foreign country thousands of miles away.But before they could be sold, they were buried deep in the ground by some kind of disaster, until they were dug up again by the descendants of local residents and became the object of imitation of artistic creation... Isn't that the case?That should be the case, right?
