Crazy?
Jiang Xiao began to understand what Old Yang meant, because he thought of the owner of the diary and the mad prophet in history.
Have they ever encountered a situation similar to Mr. Yang's?
But they said it, so they went crazy?
So, the current situation is that you know it in your heart, but you can't say it.
"Hmm! It seems you know as well!"
Old Yang nodded solemnly, clearly understanding that Jiang Xiao had seen through his predicament.
"Can you write it down?"
"Yes, but you see."
Old Yang took out a piece of draft paper.
Jiang Xiao's hands trembled as he took it.
Because the paper was covered in scribbles!
Now he feels like vomiting whenever he sees these symbols!
"Actually, when I was taking notes, I was using very standard regular script, but who knew it would turn out like this after I finished writing it."
hiss!
"Could you rewrite our noodles? That way we can see it before the words change."
"Okay." After hesitating for a moment, Old Yang nodded, feeling that it shouldn't be too serious for him.
Under the dumbfounded gazes of Jiang Xiao and Shi Shi.
As soon as Old Yang picked up his pen, a blissful smile spread across his face, and he began drawing circles on the draft paper.
Wang Defa?
This is clearly his own handwriting, isn't it?!
After finishing writing, Old Yang sat there in a daze for several seconds before slowly coming back to his senses. Then he looked at the symbols on the draft with a suspicious expression.
"As expected, things have changed again."
"No." Shi Shi interrupted Old Yang with a strange expression: "Old Deng, it's not that the characters have changed, it's that you wrote this kind of rubbish when you were writing it."
Ah this
Old Yang blushed, but in his perception, what he had written was clearly correct.
What should I do?
"Is it possible to tell me what you want to convey in other ways, such as Morse code or something?"
Old Yang shook his head, indicating that he and several of his old friends had tried various methods, but none of them worked, so he came to him for help.
"The main problem is that I only mentioned the problem to them, and before I even started explaining it, they started to become disoriented."
Jiang Xiao nodded in understanding, probably because those old men weren't "spiritually" deep enough.
"Then can we try a different approach? You...you tap me in the corner, and see if you can subtly hint at what this major discovery you're trying to tell me?"
After pondering for a moment, Old Yang felt that it might not be a bad idea.
Have you ever read any myths or legends?
Jiang Xiao and Shi Shi nodded; one had read Journey to the West, and the other had heard Sun Wei's bedtime stories.
You've read the myths, haven't you?
Chapter 538 Last Words
Shi Shi opened her mouth because although Old Yang had a full head of white hair, his hair was shiny and smooth.
But just as he uttered the word "myth," Old Yang's white hair visibly dried out.
Old Yang subconsciously reached up to touch his head, but instead of being surprised, he was delighted.
"It's alright, don't worry about me! This just proves that this method definitely works! And the price I pay is within my budget! Tell me about the myths you've read!"
Journey to the West!
"The Three Little Pigs!"
Old Yang: "?"
He could understand Journey to the West, at least it contained some mythological elements.
What the hell is this Three Little Pigs thing?
Seeing the strange looks they were giving her, Shi Shi shrank back and explained.
"Well, the little pig can talk, so it must be a fairy, so it can barely be considered a myth."
For a moment, Jiang Xiao and Old Yang were speechless.
"If it's not Journey to the West, are there any other stories? Something with a wider scope?"
Jiang Xiao frowned because Old Yang's skin was starting to sag at a visible rate.
"Your face"
"Stop wasting your time! My life is worthless! Come on, let's continue! Keep guessing!"
A wider range?
Journey to the West.
Journey to the East?
No, it seems to be the same type, almost the same cast.
god.
"Apollo, the sun god?"
"No, that's not what I meant, but it's starting to sound a bit off. Think about it again?"
"Zeus?"
"You're not part of this system, find someone else."
By the time he finished speaking, Old Yang had lost all his hair.
"Ancient Greek god who controlled slaughter?"
"If you're not part of this system, think carefully about what the biggest problem we're facing right now is."
Jiang Xiao started guessing wildly, but he just couldn't guess the correct answer that Old Yang was thinking of. Several times he just missed it.
The only certainty is that the mythology Old Yang was referring to was likely Western gods.
"Keep going, no, don't worry about me."
Seeing that Old Yang's voice had become weak and his body was covered with age spots, Jiang Xiao and Shi Shi could no longer bear to guess.
If we continue talking like this, Old Yang will die of old age here!
However, in the Dragon Kingdom's live stream room, someone had already given the correct answer.
[The West? Jiang Xiao guessed so much, why didn't he mention the Cthulhu Mythos at all?]
[Damn! Yeah! But given Jiang Xiao's resume, he probably has no knowledge of Cthulhu in his entire life, right?]
[It is indeed somewhat niche.]
But undeniably, this seems to be the answer!
Cthulhu?
The god of plagues in Cthulhu!
[@Director Wang, use this opportunity to remind us!]
[Let's all tag @WangJu!]
The number of people tagging them was so high that the higher-ups noticed it quickly.
Unfortunately, due to Director Wang's special position, no one else dared to use this important opportunity for reminders without his permission.
Moreover, he was not in China at the moment, and most importantly, Director Wang's location was unable to connect to the network, so he did not have time to reply immediately.
In addition, there was Director Wang's secret operation this time.
Few people can contact him.
Fortunately, someone from a higher level managed to contact the helicopter that was responsible for transporting Director Wang.
The higher-ups contacted the helicopter pilot, who then used a walkie-talkie to reach Director Wang below.
"Okay! Holy crap! What the hell are we doing going through procedures at this hour? Didn't I say I'd make an exception when I left? Hurry up! Pass the information to Jiang Xiao right now!"
Swift and decisive, Jiang Xiao soon received a reminder.
[Ding, external notification received]
