Heroes of Troubled Times: Chronicles of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms

The wise man pondered for a moment, his eyes revealing his interest in the challenge.

Let me hear the content of this puzzle. The wise man said calmly.

Huang Biao quickly told the wise man the content of the puzzle. He listened attentively, his mind running extremely fast.

The eyes observe hundreds of mountains and rivers, and the heart understands the life and death of all things. This is describing an omniscient and omnipotent being, perhaps only a god can do this. The wise man stared into the distance with a solemn tone in his tone.

Zhu Wen and the soldiers looked at each other with surprised expressions.

He is indeed a god! The murderer challenges our god-themed puzzle. Zhu Dali said in shock.

The wise man responded with a smile: In this case, you must look for a place related to the gods, or something related to the gods. Maybe you can find the next clue.

Zhu Wen bowed gratefully, and the soldiers continued to move in the new direction with confidence.

They decided to go to the temples and shrines of gods near the mansion, hoping to find some clues.

For several days, they searched diligently, observing every temple and shrine in detail. At this moment, they came to an ancient temple, which was filled with a mysterious atmosphere.

Zhu Wen walked into the temple nervously, looking around, trying to find anything unusual.

Suddenly, he saw a shining gem embedded in the niche, like a beacon guiding the voyager.

It's this gem! Zhu Wen shouted excitedly.

The other soldiers immediately focused on the gem, understanding that it might be their next clue.

The soldiers carefully took out the gem and found a note hidden inside.

Zhu Wen quickly opened the note and there was a secret text written on it.

This is an encrypted message that we need to decrypt to know the murderer's next move. Huang Biao said attentively.

The soldiers concentrated in the secret room, concentrating on deciphering the information hidden in the code.

This ciphertext looks quite complicated, and seems to require some kind of password to decipher it. Zhu Wen frowned and said.

Huang Biao held his chin and thought: Maybe we can start with the murderer's style of writing. After all, this is his handiwork, so perhaps there are some unique features that deserve our attention.

Zhu Dali nodded and praised: Yes, we can try to find the murderer's past written works or clues related to him. Maybe we can find some patterns and clues to help us solve this mystery.

The soldiers worked hard to find written works and clues from the murderer's past, hoping to find clues to the decryption.

After several rounds of screening, I finally found several texts written by the suspected murderer.

Zhu Wen took one of the articles, read it carefully, and focused his attention on some special symbols in the text.

These special symbols appear so frequently that there seems to be some pattern. Zhu Wen suddenly had inspiration, and he began to record the number and position of each special symbol.

Huang Biao discovered a pattern, pointed to the numbers on the paper and said: Master, look, the number of times these numbers appear also has a certain pattern. Correspondence with special symbols. Maybe it's a coding system and the two work together to decrypt.

Zhu Dali joined in and said with firm eyes: We need to find the key to this coding system. Maybe it's hidden in the killer's personal story, background, or some secret about his past actions.

The soldiers worked together to comb through the murderer's information, trying to find clues and reveal the coding pattern. They know that time is running out, and every second of delay brings the murderer one step closer to success.

Finally, during the long process of reasoning, they discovered an old diary that recorded the murderer's psychological activities and personal experiences.

Zhu Wen couldn't wait to read through old diaries, looking for key clues to unlock the secret text.

It's here! This diary describes a certain encryption method, with each special symbol and number representing a letter of the alphabet. If we decrypt the ciphertext according to this rule, we can get the real information! Zhu Wen said excitedly.

The soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, and their intense efforts finally bore fruit. They quickly used the rules in the diary to decipher each letter one by one according to the correspondence between special symbols and numbers.

Finally, the cipher text was completely decrypted, and what appeared in front of them was a sentence:"The murderer will appear in the mansion at night tomorrow. Be careful, he may have mastered all our actions." As night fell, the mansion was filled with A tense atmosphere. Zhu Wen and his soldiers were scattered in various rooms, waiting vigilantly for the murderer to appear.

Time seemed to become slow and heavy, every minute seemed like a quarter of an hour. Zhu Wen and the soldiers' hearts beat fast and they waited uneasily, knowing that a decisive battle was coming.

Suddenly, there were subtle footsteps in the corridor. The soldiers were fully armed and gathered together in tacit understanding.

Watch out, he's coming! Zhu Dali said vigilantly.

The murderer's figure gradually became clearer. He was wearing a mask and a black cloak, mysterious and intimidating.

It stopped at this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the murderer, and a chill filled the air.

Zhu Wen took a step forward and sneered: Do you think I will be confused by you easily? Do you think you can escape justice?

The murderer showed no weakness and responded coldly: Zhu Wen, you are a smart ruler, but you don't understand me. I won't retreat, I won't stop. This game is not over yet.

The soldiers stared at the murderer, their attention tense, ready for any move he made.

Zhu Wen looked resolute, and a resolute light flashed in his eyes: No matter who you are, no matter how cunning you are, I will bring you to justice and make you pay the price you deserve!

A mocking smile appeared on the murderer's lips, then he turned and left, disappearing into the darkness.

Zhu Wen and his soldiers quickly pursued him, determined not to let the murderer escape again.

They walked through the corridors of the mansion, following the clues left by the murderer. The tension builds with every step and they know victory is just around the corner.

Finally, they came to the backyard of the mansion, where the murderer stood with a proud smile.

Zhu Wen, do you think you can catch up with me? Do you think you can foil my plan? The murderer said sarcastically.

Zhu Wen put away his smile, his eyes showing firmness and determination.

No, you are wrong. This will all end here. No matter how cunning you are, we will always catch you and bring you to justice.

The soldiers surrounded the murderer tightly. They had already paid too much in this suspense reasoning and could no longer let the murderer escape.

The two sides fell into a silent confrontation, and the tense atmosphere reached its peak.

The murderer's eyes became deep and cold, and he knew he was at a disadvantage.

Zhu Wen, you win. But this is just the beginning, the world has more problems to face. However, you have shown your wisdom and courage. The murderer whispered.

Zhu Wen approached the murderer and stared at him sharply.

I will make sure you pay for what you have done and will never tolerate it. You have deceived me and my people, and you must be punished. Zhu Wen spoke firmly.

The murderer remained silent, as if accepting his fate.
