Wu Chan wants to use dense stones to build a royal tomb that is exactly the same as Ying Zheng's nine-story royal tomb. For Jingjue, this is naturally a major event for the whole clan, so Thumb and Zhehuai certainly express their full approval and support.
And Ying Zheng naturally had no reason to refuse.
Although the nine-story royal tomb is also a secret of the Tiancheng lineage, how can it be regarded as a secret for Jingjue who helped China build the royal tomb?
That's why Ying Zhengcai directly agreed to Wu Chan and wanted to help her fulfill her wish.
But Wu Chan was anxious to see what Xuantieluo looked like, so several people started to get up and return to the ground.
After saying goodbye to their thumbs, the three people left the ghost cave, found their previously tied horses, and headed straight for the Qin Army's camp.
"Brother Ying, is that black iron snail you mentioned so magical?" Wu Chan seemed to have been thinking about the black iron snail.
"Yes, I don't know many of the principles, and I don't know if my senior can teach me how to make such a black iron snail." Ying Zheng said.
"As long as he knows this skill, he will definitely teach you." Wu Chan's eyes were full of expectation and trust, making Ying Zheng unable to refuse even if he wanted to.
When they arrived at the camp, the Meng brothers came out to greet them. Ying Zheng ordered them to go to King Xiqiang to ask if they had any needs, and then took Wu Chan and Zhe Huai into his tent.
Ying Zheng closed the door and took out a wooden box from a hidden compartment.
Opening the wooden box, what was placed inside was the Black Iron Compass.
Wu Chan and Zhe Huai stared at the compass with strange patterns engraved on its surface.
Ying Zheng opened the compass and took out the black iron snail.
"Is this the Black Iron Snail?" Wu Chan asked curiously.
"Yes, what we see now is just its ordinary form." After saying that, Ying Zheng used his hands to twist the black iron snail and changed its form.
"This, this thing can still change?" Zhehuai said in surprise.
Wu Chan also opened his mouth wide, but did not make any sound, as if he was afraid of disturbing Ying Zheng.
"Haha, that's right." Ying Zheng said with a smile, "This is the key form of the black iron snail. Most of the mechanisms in the royal tomb are opened by it."
Immediately, Ying Zheng made a move to open the mechanism.
"Hehe, interesting." Wu Chan then smiled.
"Not only that." Ying Zheng twisted the black iron snail again and placed it on the compass. "This is another form. I call it the pointer form."
"Haha, it's fun." Wu Chan smiled like a child, his eyes still fixed on the black iron snail.
Ying Zheng placed the black iron snail on the compass, then turned around and took a steel knife and placed it next to the black iron snail.
After adjusting the compass, Ying Zheng pressed his index finger lightly on the tip of the black iron snail.
Immediately, the black iron snail trembled a few times, and then started to rotate in one direction.
"It's moving..." Wu Chan's expression was like a child's infatuation after seeing a long-favorite toy.
Perhaps, she is still a child herself, and she is just constantly forcing herself to be tough because of her life experience.
The black iron snail was seen rotating slowly for two weeks, and then stopped, with the direction of the pointer facing the steel knife.
"The pointer status of the black iron snail can distinguish the types of different metals, and can point to the location of that specific metal according to our needs." Ying Zheng explained.
I don't know if the explanation was a bit complicated. Wu Chan blinked and didn't quite understand it for a while.
"In other words, if you want to find a metal product, you only need to know what its material is?" Zhehuai simplified Ying Zheng's words.
"Yes, but within the range of a hundred feet." Ying Zheng said, "I previously ordered Meng Yi to use it to search for minerals.
, the effect is not bad. "
"Haha, this is really a treasure." Wu Chan said with an even brighter smile, "It seems that the person who can create this treasure must be an expert in this world."
"Yes." Zhehuai said, "Then does it have any other forms or uses?"
Ying Zheng shook his head and said: "I know this much for now, there should be no other uses."
"This is quite good. Such a fun and practical treasure is rare." Wu Chan looked at Ying Zheng and said with a smile, "Can I pick it up and take a look?"
"Of course." Ying Zheng picked up the black iron snail from the compass and handed it to Wu Chan.
Wu Chan took it carefully, and then imitated Ying Zheng's example and transformed the black iron snail into its form.
Zhehuai lay next to the compass and looked carefully at the graphics and text on the compass.
However, she definitely didn't recognize it, she could only see it in a fog.
After playing with it for a while, Wu Chan seemed to suddenly remember something. He looked at Ying Zheng and asked, "By the way, Brother Ying, didn't you say that you bought a handful of stones very similar to the black iron snail at the Jingjue market? Put it on Where is it?"
Ying Zheng slapped his forehead and was busy showing off the black iron snail to Wu Chan, but he forgot about it.
"Wait a minute, I'm going to ask for it at Meng Yi's place." Ying Zheng stood up in a hurry and left the tent.
Not long after, Ying Zheng returned to the tent carrying a cloth bag.
Opening the bag, Ying Zheng took out the strange stone that he had exchanged for a piece of silk at the market.
Wu Chan came over with the black iron snail.
Comparing the two, the tip of this weird stone is really very similar to the black iron snail.
"Brother Ying, I think we should remove the rocks above and see what's inside." Wu Chan said. "
Ying Zheng said: "I am also curious about what the things inside have to do with the black iron snail. However, looking at the hardness of the rock, it seems that it will not be easy to remove it without damaging the inside."
"Haha, Brother Ying, have you forgotten what the Jingjue Ghost Hand does?" Wu Chan said with a smile, "It's easy to remove this stone. You can also stay in the palace tonight, and I can inform you in time if there is any news. you."
"Okay!" Ying Zheng said directly without thinking.
On the one hand, he was curious about this strange stone. On the other hand, he also wanted to confirm with Wu Chan the candidate for the ghost hand in China.
The three of them took the black iron snail and the strange stone, rode into Jingjue City together, and returned to the palace.
Zhehuai left with the strange stone, and Ying Zheng and Wu Chan came to the room of King Xiqiang.
The King of Xiqiang came with Ying Zheng, and Ying Zheng was taken away by Wu Chan early in the morning, and the King of Xiqiang and others were thrown into the palace. Now that he came back, how could he not say hello?
King Xiqiang was sitting in the room carefully tasting the tea brought by Ying Zheng, and Qiang Yu and Solin were accompanying him.
Seeing Ying Zheng and Wu Chan coming back, the three of them were stunned at the same time.
Not for anything else, just because Wu Chan was still wearing the traditional costume of the Guidong tribe.
Seemingly aware of the strange looks in the three Xirong people's eyes, Wu Chan said nonchalantly: "I am accompanying King Qin out today. Naturally, I am wearing ordinary clothes. Now that King Qin is back safely, you can chat for now. We will see you at the dinner." "
After that, without waiting for anyone else to say anything, Wu Chan turned around and left.
Seeing Wu Chan walking away, King Xiqiang looked at Ying Zheng again, his eyes still strange.
"King Xiqiang, what happened here?" Ying Zheng also felt unnatural, so he asked.
"Hahaha..." King Xiqiang suddenly laughed.
This sudden smile confused Thorin and Qiang Hu next to them.
"This whole day, Queen Jingjue has been accompanying King Qin?" King Xiqiang not only
The eyes are weird, even the emphasis is weird.
"Yes, I went to their ghost cave today." Ying Zheng also sat down, poured a cup of tea, and said, "However, I didn't see anything particularly interesting."
Of course Ying Zheng couldn't say that he went to the ghost cave to see the secret stone.
"Haha, it doesn't matter if the things are interesting or not, as long as the people are interesting." King Xiqiang said with a smile.
"Human? Who?" Ying Zheng asked in confusion.
"Who else is there? Queen Jingjue." King Xiqiang
He raised his voice and said, "I see that you two are in love with each other. You are really a talented man and a good-looking woman, and you are a perfect match."
Ying Zheng broke into cold sweat and said hurriedly: "King Xiqiang, this is not a joke."
"Haha, you can't joke." King Xiqiang's smile continued, "But I am not joking."
Ying Zheng: "..."
"That's right, Brother Wang." Qiang Yu also helped by saying, "You and Queen Jingjue are both the kings of the same country. Since your two countries have already established trade, it is not a bad idea to open up intermarriage."
Thorin also joined in the fun: "Yes, Brother Wang said, the wives you married were all married to other countries. How come you are here in Jingjue, and it becomes a joke."
"This, how can this be the same?" Ying Zheng was a little embarrassed to even speak.
"Haha, I can see that she is interested in you and you have feelings for her, but neither of them dare to tell the truth." King Xiqiang smiled and said, "If it is not convenient for King Qin to make it clear, then I am willing to be the matchmaker. ,Hahaha……"
To be honest, any man would have feelings for a beautiful king like Wu Chan, let alone Ying Zheng, who has an equal status with him.
But Ying Zheng restrained himself not to think about those feelings or say anything more, and continued to sip tea.
During the dinner, Ying Zheng pretended to be nonchalant and frequently toasted to the outstanding elders, but from time to time he glanced at Wu Chan with his peripheral vision.
Their eyes would occasionally collide, but then they would pull away.
But after a while, they will collide again.
I have to say that both of them can feel that their relationship seems to be constantly sublimating, and the distance between their hearts is getting closer and closer.
Everyone in Jingjue was drunk by the two wine masters, Ying Zheng and King Xiqiang.
Early the next morning, Wu Chan appeared at Ying Zheng's door holding a cloth bag in both hands.
Ying Zheng had just finished breakfast when he saw Wu Chan coming. He couldn't help but feel very happy and a little nervous.
"Guess what I brought?" Wu Chan's bright eyes were half-squinted, as if he was hiding some ulterior secret.
"Could it be that stone?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Haha, you guessed it right, but this is not a stone." Wuchanguai smiled and put the bag on the table, "You can see for yourself."
Ying Zheng quickly reached out and brought the bag, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but froze.
What was in the bag turned out to be another black iron snail!
