In fact, the software parsed the data very quickly. After all, it was only the first thousand combinations, so the amount of data wasn't large. However, Xia Ruofei and the others felt that the progress bar was running very slowly.
Of course, this was an illusion.
When the progress bar finally ran out, a prompt popped up: Analysis successful.
Chen Xuan said, "Brother Xia, you open it!"
Xia Ruofei heard Chen Xuan's voice tremble a little. He couldn't help but laugh and say, "No matter if it's successful or not, the data is here. There's no need to be so nervous …"
"I wasn't nervous before, but now I'm suddenly nervous!" Chen Xuan didn't hide his nervousness, as if he felt that there was nothing to be ashamed of.
In fact, even Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha couldn't help but feel nervous.
Mu Sheng was more steady. He said in a deep voice, "Brother Xia, I suggest that the four of us look at the results first, and the others leave for a while. What do you think?"
The so-called others were naturally Mu Jianfei, Yu Xin 'er, Song Wei, and Ling Qingxue.
Xia Ruofei said indifferently, "No problem!"
Song Wei and Ling Qingxue originally didn't participate in this matter. If they looked at the content more, it would be easy to attract all kinds of trouble.
Therefore, Song Wei and the others went to the other side of the lounge, found a sofa far away, and sat down to wait.
Xia Ruofei, Chen Xuan, Mu Sheng, and Liu Mansha gathered in front of the laptop.
"I'm opening it!" Xia Ruofei said.
"Open!"
"Open it!"
Xia Ruofei double-clicked the analyzed data folder to open it.
In fact, it was a thousand text documents, and the content was the first thousand combinations arranged in order. It was also the thousand combinations that the supercomputer thought were most likely after complex calculations and comparisons.
The file name of each document was a number, from 1 to 1000.
Everyone turned their attention to the first article with great hope. Xia Ruofei double-clicked the document to open it.
The first document was naturally the one that the supercomputer thought was most likely to be the one that everyone was looking forward to the most.
However, when everyone glanced at the contents of the document, they couldn't help but show a hint of confusion. Although they were all combinations of Chinese characters, they couldn't understand what they meant when they were connected together. In other words, this was a combination of words that didn't have any meaning at all!
There were more than three thousand floating points on the token, which meant that each document was only about three thousand words long.
Xia Ruofei and the others quickly finished reading the document.
With the level of brain development of Aurous Core stage cultivators, they could basically memorize the contents.
The four of them exchanged glances, trying to see if the others had noticed anything. However, it was obvious that everyone was confused.
In the end, it was Xia Ruofei who said, "How about this? Let's read the second chapter first. We'll talk after reading a few more chapters! "
Next, Xia Ruofei and the others read seven or eight documents in a row, but the results were the same. They were all meaningless combinations of words.
In fact, the higher the serial number, the more reasonable it was.
Even the first chapter was full of messy combinations of words. Naturally, the rest wouldn't be any better.
Xia Ruofei's heart sank. He realized that there might be a problem.
However, with a strict attitude, they still had to check all one thousand documents.
Xia Ruofei said to Chen Xuan, "Brother Chen, let's take out a few more computers. The four of us will distribute 250 documents to each of us. Let's finish reading as soon as possible and then discuss."
Chen Xuan said with some frustration, "That's the only way!"
For this algorithm program, Chen Xuan had actually put in a lot of effort. From the looks of it, it seemed that all his efforts were in vain. Naturally, his mood wasn't good.
Xia Ruofei still had a laptop in the Ring-Tu space, and Chen Xuan just happened to have two computers. They had enough in a short time.
In fact, if it wasn't enough, Song Wei and Ling Qingxue would definitely have some. These two had just received the storage rings and couldn't wait to stuff their homes into the rings. Things like laptops and single-lens reflex cameras would definitely be placed in the storage rings.
Xia Ruofei copied the entire data folder to the portable hard drive, and then let Chen Xuan copy the folder to the other computers.
Xia Ruofei said, "Okay, now each computer has a complete data folder. 1,000 documents are the same. But in order to improve efficiency, the four of us will divide the work. Each of us will check 250 documents. This will be faster!"
Speaking of this, Xia Ruofei quickly explained, "Our machine time is until 8 o 'clock tomorrow morning. Now the data situation is not very good, so we have to speed up the verification. If we can find the problem and solve it in a short time, we can run the program again in time!"
"Okay!"
"We know!"
"Sect Leader Mu, please check the documents from 1 to 250! Valley Master Liu will take care of documents from 251 to 500. Brother Chen will take care of documents from 501 to 750. I'll check the last part. "Xia Ruofei quickly assigned the tasks." Does anyone have any different opinions? "
"Let's do it this way! There's no time to lose! "Liu Mansha said.
So, everyone held a laptop and began to check the documents.
Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha learned the basic computer operation after some simple learning.
The four of them did the same thing — quickly flipping through the documents.
Their eyes quickly swept across the computer screen, and then the mouse wheel kept scrolling down. Occasionally, there was the sound of the mouse clicking, which was the closing of old documents and opening of new documents.
The more Xia Ruofei read, the more his heart sank. He was responsible for the last 250 documents, which was the part of the first 1,000 documents that the supercomputer thought was the least likely to be the correct answer.
In fact, after reading the first few documents, Xia Ruofei already felt that there was little hope.
The brain development of a cultivator at the Gold Core stage was far beyond that of ordinary people. Thus, the speed of reading documents was very fast.
In less than half an hour, everyone had finished reading the 250 documents that were assigned to them. Chen Xuan, who was the slowest, was not behind by more than a few minutes.
Everyone closed their laptops and gathered together with a solemn expression.
"How is it?" Xia Ruofei asked.
The three of them slowly shook their heads. Mu Sheng said, "Unless it's a code or something, none of the documents are smooth."
Liu Mansha and Chen Xuan also nodded.
In fact, smoothness was the minimum requirement. As the contents of the Rising Dragon Order, there must be some secret. Now that they couldn't even make a simple smoothness, it was very clear that there was a problem.
In fact, Liu Mansha, Mu Sheng, and the others had always felt that the most likely situation was that there was a cultivation technique recorded in the Rising Dragon Order.
Now that they looked at it, among the 1,000 documents, there wasn't even a basic smoothness, let alone a cultivation technique.
Xia Ruofei's expression sank. He said, "My situation is the same as everyone's."
Although in order to save time, no one had finished reading all one thousand documents, there was no need to hide this kind of thing. Because everyone had received all one thousand documents, it would be very fast to read them again. At this time, lying would be quickly exposed.
Xia Ruofei continued, "Then, there's a very high probability that the data we received this time is not the correct answer!"
Mu Sheng, Liu Mansha, and Chen Xuan all nodded. There was almost no need to doubt this point.
Xia Ruofei said, "Let's analyze it first! In terms of the algorithm, Brother Chen and I worked together to create it. We checked it many times and even built a simulation environment to test run. The situation is very good, so the possibility of a problem is not high. "
Speaking of this, Xia Ruofei paused for a moment, and then said, "Although I don't want to admit it, I still feel that … maybe our direction is wrong!"
Chen Xuan frowned slightly and said, "Our algorithm is based on the judgment that each floating point represents a word. If this judgment is wrong, then naturally, we won't get the correct result."
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Yes! Now, I also highly suspect that this basic judgment of ours may be wrong. "
From the beginning to the end, Xia Ruofei didn't think that the Rising Dragon Order recorded a cultivation technique.
This was because he had more information than Chen Xuan, Mu Sheng, and Liu Mansha.
He had already learned from Yuntai that the floating point pattern on the Rising Dragon Order would change. Basically, it would change once every fifty years or so.
If it recorded a cultivation technique, then how could the content change?
Even because of this periodic change, Xia Ruofei vaguely felt that it didn't seem reasonable that each floating point represented a word.
However, everyone felt that this judgment was a big step forward and was very close to the truth. Therefore, Xia Ruofei and Chen Xuan further optimized the algorithm on this basis.
Now, it seemed that there really might be a problem with the basic judgment.
Xia Ruofei hesitated whether to tell everyone about the periodic change of the floating point pattern.
Saying it would undoubtedly be more beneficial for brainstorming, but the biggest problem was that he couldn't explain the source of this information.
Before this, the entire cultivation world had never collected five tokens, let alone know that the five tokens would be combined into the Rising Dragon Order. How did Xia Ruofei know that the floating point pattern on the Rising Dragon Order would change periodically?
What's more, this cycle was fifty years, and Xia Ruofei was only in his twenties!
Xia Ruofei hesitated again and again, but finally decided not to say it for the time being.
After all, even if he pushed all the blame to his Nascent Soul master, it was not reasonable. There was no record of the Rising Dragon Order in the cultivation world. How did the Nascent Soul masters know about it?
Xia Ruofei pondered for a moment and said, "Seniors, and Brother Chen, let's study the tokens again! Maybe there's some information that we haven't found yet! "
Mu Sheng nodded and said, "That's the only way …"
Liu Mansha asked, "Fellow Daoist Xia, are we going to combine everyone's tokens again?"
After the high-definition scan in the Forbidden City, everyone had broken down the tokens and stored them separately.
Xia Ruofei thought for a moment and said, "Let's look at the scan first! If we don't find anything, we'll combine the tokens again! "
The resolution of the scan was extremely high, and basically all the details were preserved. Moreover, it could be enlarged at will on the computer, which was more conducive to observing the details of the tokens.
Xia Ruofei opened the scan on the laptop.
Everyone gathered behind Xia Ruofei and silently observed and analyzed the picture.
At this time, everyone was somewhat depressed. After all, they had always felt that they were very close to the answer, and everything had been very smooth. They didn't expect that the final result would be a blow to everyone's head.
Xia Ruofei's mood was not greatly affected. After opening the scan, he stared at the computer screen without blinking.
Sometimes he observed the whole picture of the floating point pattern, and sometimes he enlarged it so that a single floating point occupied the entire screen. He carefully observed the black dot pattern on the floating point.
After a while, Xia Ruofei said, "Since the possibility of these floating point patterns being words is very low, then … do you think they might represent numbers?"
Chen Xuan showed a thoughtful expression and said, "It's not impossible. The numbers might represent coordinates, or they might be a password. So, in fact, there are many scenarios where numbers are used in encrypted content."
Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha didn't have much contact with this aspect, but they also had their own thoughts.
Mu Sheng said, "Little Brother Xia, if it's a number, even if it's cracked, we can't judge whether it's correct or not!"
Words could be logically judged through the context, but how could numbers be judged?
If it was a wrong result and they tried to crack the numerical password based on this result, they would be running in the wrong direction and would never get the correct result.
Xia Ruofei pondered for a moment and said, "If each floating point pattern represents a number or a group of numbers, then the answer should be unique and there shouldn't be many possibilities. But there's still one point, which is that it must be based on the premise that the judgment is correct. Like before, if the judgment is wrong, then the numerical result will be useless. "
Liu Mansha said, "Why don't we try it first?"
Chen Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "Little Brother Xia, let's try it again according to this direction! Don't we still have a few hours of flight time? According to the direction of the numerical decryption, the calculation shouldn't be too big. There's still time! "
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Okay! We have to reserve at least two hours to modify the algorithm! "
Chen Xuan also started thinking and said, "In each floating point pattern, there are about sixty to seventy black dots. The total number is not constant, and the row combination is not constant, so there are more comparisons to be made in the algorithm."
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "That's right! In addition, we have to consider the possibility of the number being binary, octal, or hexadecimal. After all, we don't know anything now, so we can't just assume that it's decimal! "
"Then the workload will be even bigger!" Chen Xuan said with a slight frown.
Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly and shook his head. He said, "Even if the workload is huge, we still have to try it! Also, there's no way to break down the work, so I can only do it alone. Brother Chen, help me check and fill in the gaps! "
