Chapter 1716 Breakthrough?

Mu Sheng also stroked his beard and smiled, "Nephew Chen is right. We were completely confused before, but now we have at least one research direction."

Liu Mansha's expression was a little excited and said, "Fellow Daoist Xia's discovery has indeed made us take a big step towards **! If we continue to study in this direction, we may be able to make a breakthrough soon!"

When Xia Rufei saw everyone's excitement, she couldn't help but want to pour a basin of cold water.

The black dot on the floating point sphere may be indeliberate for ordinary people, but it is impossible to hide under the mental power detection of the practitioner. Xia Ruofei does not believe that the Nascent Soul masters and even the Yuanshen masters in the ancient cultivation world will not be able to detect it.

What does such an obvious clue, but still cannot be found in substantial discovery?

It means that it is not that easy to crack the content represented by this floating point.

Moreover, during his service in the army, Xia Rufei also came into contact with simple cryptography knowledge. From the perspective of cryptography, even if Xia Rufei's guess is correct, that is, each floating point represents a text, and the black dots on the floating point spherical surface correspond to different texts according to the division style. It is also extremely difficult to crack the content represented by floating point based on these.

More than three thousand floating points are equivalent to more than three thousand samples.

Some of them are repeated.

They can start with these repeated floating points, list possible texts, and then arrange them according to the possibility, replace these floating points with corresponding texts, and then combine the context to infer the text represented by other floating points bit by bit.

This is a process of constant trial and error and continuous trial.

Theoretically, the first step is the most difficult. When more and more floating points are deciphered, the subsequent cracking speed will become faster and faster, because there are more context content converted into floating points as reference.

In any case, this calculation is an astronomical number.

Xia Rufei speculated a little and finally understood why even the ancient cultivation world could not find any results.

He said, "Two seniors, Brother Chen, I'm afraid things are not as simple as **. Just by urging the content of more than 3,000 texts from these floating points, there are countless possibilities. If you try all these possibilities, it may not be possible to complete them in dozens of times."

Mu Sheng felt a little incredible, and he said, "Brother Xia, it should be so exaggerated! There are only more than 3,000 floating points in total!"

Mu Sheng considers it from the perspective of a Jindan stage practitioner. Because they are very strong in their mental power and have a high degree of brain development, their thinking speed is much faster than that of ordinary people. He thinks that even if they try one word at a time, it will not take long.

Three * five * you will be at the top!

How could it be impossible to complete even dozens of *?

Xia Rufei smiled and said, "Master Mu, let me give you an example! Now we use about two or three thousand Chinese characters. If we use them at a higher frequency, at least one or two hundred. In other words, even if we only check high-frequency Chinese characters, these floating points that appear repeatedly multiple times have one or two hundred possibilities. And every time we decipher a floating point, we have to multiply it by two or three thousand. In addition, we must also consider the difference between the token's generation, the text at that time and the current text... In the end, the calculation amount may be so large that we can't imagine at all!"

Chen Xuan also said: "Uncle Mu, Brother Xia is right. I heard that some institutions in the secular world that study code deciphering use supercomputers with extremely fast computing speeds to work, because they rely entirely on manpower..."

Speaking of this, Chen Xuan suddenly stopped. He looked at Xia Rufei with him. Both of them lit up their eyes and shouted at the same time: "Supercomputer!"

"...What chicken? Isn't chicken used for eating? How can we help us crack the secret of the token?" Mu Sheng was confused.

Mu Sheng didn't know much about the secular world, and he was also interested in learning about some things about modern technology.

Relatively speaking, his son Mu Jianfei is a gentleman after all, and he has more or less contact with some things in the secular world.

Seeing his father's ignorant appearance, Mu Jianfei couldn't help but cover his face, then looked up and said helplessly: "Father, it's a supercomputer. This is a kind of technological device in the secular world, not a chicken that is cooked to eat."

Xia Rufei briefly praised the science and said: "Zheng Mu, a supercomputer is a high-level machine that can replace humans to perform some complex operations. The biggest feature is that the data storage volume is large and the computing speed is far beyond the human brain. Taking our China 'Shenwei Taihu Light' supercomputer as an example, it can complete an average of 930 million operations per second, and at the fastest time it can reach 1.25 billion times. Even if the practitioner has strong mental power, it will not be able to achieve this level."

Mu Shin-wen couldn't help but be dumbfounded and said, "Billions of times..."

In fact, Xia Rufei's explanation is not strictly accurate, but it is very intuitive, which makes Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha understand the huge advantages of supercomputers over human brain computing at once.

In fact, supercomputers are not used to compare with the human brain at all, because they are not on the same order of magnitude at all.

Chen Xuan said excitedly: "Brother Xia, maybe it's really operational! If we rely on us to calculate the text represented by each floating point little by little, it may not be able to complete it even if we spend our entire life. But if we hand it over to a supercomputer, it will definitely be much faster!"

Xia Rufei said calmly: "It is not necessarily that optimistic. First of all, supercomputers are only responsible for computing. We have to build models and databases to break the code. Otherwise, even if we have supercomputers, we cannot calculate them out of thin air. In addition, supercomputers are generally in large national scientific research institutions or large technology companies. Supercomputers are always very nervous when working, and we may not be able to coordinate them. There is also the issue of confidentiality. Whether this token is called the Five Saints Order or Shenglong Order, even in the cultivation world, we should keep our mouths tight, otherwise it will inevitably cause an uproar. As for the secular world, it cannot be leaked."

Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha couldn't understand the part about supercomputers that Xia Rufei said, but the two agreed with the third point he said.

Liu Mansha said directly: "Fellow Daoist Xia is right. No matter what method is used to crack it, the premise is that you must ensure that the secret will not be leaked, otherwise the cultivation world will inevitably cause an uproar!"

Chen Xuan nodded and said, "Brother Xia makes sense, but we have a direction to crack it! We will solve the problems you mentioned one by one."

Xia Ruofei asked with a smile: "It's okay to say about the problem of the machine. I know some influential friends in the secular world. I ask them to help coordinate it. It should be fine. But how to build a calculation model for cracking floating-point passwords? What Chinese characters are used? What are their weights? We must solve these problems ourselves and we cannot use them to pretend to be."

Chen Xuan said: "Brother Xia, we can learn it! I know a little about computer technology. I believe you know a lot from Brother Xia. Compared with ordinary people in the secular world, our biggest advantage is that we learn knowledge quickly and have strong understanding ability. I believe that solving these problems will not take too much time, at least it will be faster than if we rely on the human brain to make a little calculation!"

"That's right..." Xia Rufei nodded with a smile, "But don't forget that all this is based on the premise that my previous inference that each floating point represents a word is correct! * Once I guessed wrong, then all our work will become useless."

"Research is a process of constant trial and error!" Chen Xuan said indifferently, "Besides, this will not take too much time. I think it is completely worth it! Two seniors, what do you think?"

Liu Mansha and Mu Sheng nodded without hesitation, and they said in unison: "Totally agree!"

Xia Ruofei couldn't help laughing when he heard this. He stood up and said, "Since everyone agrees, let's give it a try!"

In fact, Xia Rufei also tends to make this judgment in his heart.

To talk about the Nascent Soul and Yuanshen masters in the ancient cultivation world are much better than the current cultivators, and they are far better at cracking work that they cannot complete. How can the cultivators in the modern cultivation world complete it?

Xia Rufei felt that if we really want to calculate, we can only find the gap in computing speed.

He believed that even those Nascent Souls and Masters of the Ancient Cultivation World, in terms of computing speed, were only crushed compared to supercomputers!

Maybe their cracking work this time may really use modern technology to find a breakthrough!

Xia Rufei looked at the token on the desktop, pondered for a while, and said, "Two seniors, Brother Chen, I think the first thing we need to do is to scan the floating point pattern intact, and it must be a very high-definition scanning device!"

Chen Xuan nodded and said, "Well! Scan it first, it will be more convenient for us to study it later!"

Liu Mansha and Mu Sheng naturally didn't understand this at all. Seeing that Chen Xuan agreed, they nodded in agreement.

Xia Rufei pondered for a moment and said, "I heard that the Forbidden City has a set of high-definition scanning equipment, which is specially used to scan precious cultural relics. Why don't we go to the capital and find a way to borrow this equipment?"

"Forbidden City?" Mu Sheng couldn't help but shout.

Even if he doesn't understand the secular world, he still knows the Forbidden City.

Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "President Mu, the Forbidden City is no longer an imperial palace. It is now a National Museum. Everyone can visit when buying tickets!"

There are many precious cultural relics in the Forbidden City, and daily maintenance and restoration work are also quite heavy. This set of high-definition scanning equipment is specially used to establish archives for these precious cultural relics. Especially for those works of calligraphy and painting, it can be said to be very clear after scanning. It has a great effect on analyzing the paper or silk types of these calligraphy and painting cultural relics. Because restoring cultural relics requires the restoration of the old as before, naturally, you must give priority to the raw materials of the same material as the same generation to repair. With high-definition scanning equipment, the identification of materials becomes much easier.

Chen Xuan said: "I agree! But on the Forbidden City Museum, our Tianyi Gate is not very powerful in the capital, so I'm afraid..."

"I'll find a way to do this!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.

He has many friends in Beijing, so it should be fine if he just borrows equipment.

"It's not too late, let's just set off now!" Liu Mansha also has a decisive personality.

"Yes!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Brother Chen should have brought the Bishui Feibo out! We can just take the ride!"

"Haha! No problem!" Chen Xuan said with a smile, "Just go on the Bright Water Flying Boat!"

Everyone is going to clean up and take a flying boat from the roof of the hotel to the capital.

But the question is, the token has been combined into a whole piece, and it looks tight. Should we separate it? How to separate it? If it is not separated, who is responsible for carrying it?

After all, the token is so precious that everyone is still worried about it.

Xia Rufei also saw everyone's doubts and said with a smile: "Why not do this! Anyway, after the token arrives in the capital, you have to be combined to scan it. Let Brother Chen take it in his hand first. After all, Tianyi Gate has two tokens! But Brother Chen should not include it in the storage magic weapon, so that the token will not leave everyone's sight. How about it?"

Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha nodded and said in unison: "Yes!"

Everyone reached an agreement, so Chen Xuan reached out and picked up the token, and everyone walked out of the conference room together.

Xia Ruofei proposed to bring Song Wei and Ling Qingxue with him, so Chen Xuan naturally would not have any objection. When Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha heard that these two were Xia Ruofei's Taoist couples, the two Jindan monks couldn't help but feel gossipy. Not only did they have the opinion, they urged Xia Ruofei to call Song Wei and Ling Qingxue over quickly.

So, Xia Rufei called the two confidants and asked them to wait directly on the rooftop of the building - the two had already arrived at the hotel and were resting in Xia Rufei's room!

Then, Xia Rufei called Qin Yanan again and asked her to take people back to the company first, but not to withdraw from the hotel room. Xia Rufei thought that if the trip to Beijing went smoothly, everyone would come to the hotel in Sanshan and study the token together.

As for the small conference room, it will naturally be returned first. Anyway, it is easy to order when needed.

The group soon arrived at the rooftop, and the ** people discovered their whereabouts - for a group of practitioners, it was not too easy to avoid ordinary people in the secular world and those monitoring equipment.

Song Wei and Ling Qingxue have already arrived at the rooftop before them.

Then there were naturally introductions and greetings to each other.

Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha were very polite to Song Wei and Ling Qingxue. Although they had low cultivation, they looked down on them at all. Instead, they praised them for their perfect match with Xia Ruofei.

Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha, as elders, also gave Song Wei and Ling Qingxue a meeting gift respectively.

Although it is not particularly expensive, it is also a very practical treasure for cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage.
