While Ying Thirteen was drawing, he looked up at Zhen Buhui, who was standing next to him and watching him draw.
"Why is that expression like this? Are you surprised that someone like me can actually draw?"
"It's indeed unexpected." Zhen Buhui didn't hide his thoughts at all. "Not only can he draw, but he can also draw well. Although he is not an expert, he is still pretty good."
"Of course, our boss trains masters with both civil and military skills. According to our boss, there can be no shortcomings."
"It is true that there must be no shortcomings. We must master piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, otherwise, those scholars may look down on us!"
"That's not what it's for!" Ying Thirteen rolled his eyes, "Who cares what those angry guys say or think? We are the face of His Majesty, the Duke, the General and the Marquis, and we cannot It’s embarrassing for them.”
"It's really nice to have such an idea!"
Zhen Buhui looked at Ying Shisan immersed in painting and sighed softly. To be honest, during the time he was in Jiaping Pass, he felt more and more that the two young masters wanted to hand over all their power to him. The ideas of Shen Haolin and Shen Cha are particularly reliable. In their hands, everything will be put to good use, and the efforts of the two young masters in cultivating this force will not be in vain.
Thinking of this, he raised his head and looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, and happened to see them looking at him, but there was a hint of calculation in their eyes.
"What...what's wrong?" Zhen Buhui felt nervous and stretched out his hand to touch his face, "I...is there something wrong?"
"It's nothing!" Shen Cha saw his nervous look and shook his head gently, "I suddenly thought of something. I will tell you later. Don't be so nervous first. It's a good thing, not a bad thing."
"It doesn't feel right." Zhen Buhui sighed softly, "Since the general said it was a good thing, I will believe it for the time being."
"I won't lie to you, it's just a good thing." Shen Cha smiled faintly and exchanged a look with Shen Haolin. The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, "Thirteen, how long will it take?"
"It's almost time, there's still some finishing touches left."
Ying Thirteen's painting skills are considered to be very good among the shadows, especially in terms of drawing maps. He can draw quickly and well, and he can draw the entire sea map in less than a cup of tea.
He put down the pen in his hand and checked it himself before nodding towards Shen Haolin and Shen Cha.
Shen Cha ran over and stood behind Ying Thirteen. While sighing that Ying Thirteen's painting skills had improved, he confirmed that there was no difference with the original painting, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Put it aside to dry and roll it up for you to take away later. Remember, it must be handed directly into His Majesty's hands. Also, let the county prince see what is fishy about this picture."
"Yes, boss, don't worry, nothing will go wrong."
Shen Cha nodded, reached out and patted Ying Shisan on the shoulder, saying "Thank you for your hard work", and then walked back to Shen Haolin and sat down.
Xue Ruitian stood in front of the sea chart, folding his arms and looking at the chart. The more he looked at it, the more strange he felt. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was not right about this chart.
"Brother Xiaotian?" Shen Cha saw Xue Ruitian staring at the sea chart and raised his eyebrows slightly, "What are you looking at?"
"You guys talk first, I'll take a look first, and then I'll tell you when I'm sure." Xue Ruitian thought for a while, then waved to Ning Cheng, asking him to come and stand next to him.
Ning Cheng didn't know what Xue Ruitian asked her to do, so she obediently walked to Xue Ruitian, looked at the picture, and then at him.
"What's wrong with this picture?"
"Didn't you find anything when you got this picture?"
"What did you find?" Ning Cheng shook his head gently, "I found nothing! This thing was originally placed in the most secret place by the clan leader. I just accidentally saw him take it out, look at it and then put it back. I was very cautious and careful. I knew this should be very important, so I took it out. Moreover, this thing was rolled up and placed in a blue cover. I just opened it and took a look to confirm that this was it.
What I saw that day, I was dragged over. "He blinked, "Is there really a problem?"
"It's hard to say right now."
Xue Ruitian sighed and moved closer to the nautical chart. After thinking for a while, he finally reached out and touched the nautical chart. Touching it little by little, he suddenly felt that the touch in his hand seemed not right. He moved closer. After looking at it, he couldn't see anything abnormal, so he continued to touch around this area. After touching twice, he felt a little unusual bulge in the upper middle. He looked at the picture carefully and found that there were no islands. , the logo is a blank space that represents the sea.
"Come!" Xue Ruitian pulled Ning Cheng, "Come and touch this place to see if there is anything."
Ning Cheng looked confused. Although he didn't quite understand what Xue Ruitian was talking about, he still reached out and touched it. When he first touched it, he had a look of surprise on his face. He looked at Xue Ruitian with a look of disbelief. He thought it was him. I felt the illusion, touched it again, and nodded towards Xue Ruitian.
Xue Ruitian breathed a sigh of relief and waved to Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "Look, there seems to be a mezzanine here."
"Mezzanine?" Hearing Xue Ruitian's words, Shen Haolin and Shen Cha looked at each other, frowned slightly, and walked towards the painting. Shen Cha reached out and touched the place where Xue Ruitian pointed, and touched the side, "Well , it’s true, this place seems to be a little thicker than other places, if you don’t get started, you probably won’t be able to find it.”
"Really?" Jin Jing blinked and came over to touch it, making sure that there must be something inside. He looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, then Xue Ruitian, and then at the other people with expressions on their faces. Bewildered, he said, "Which of us knows this craft? You have to dismantle this chart to see what's inside, but you can't destroy the chart. This is a delicate job." He raised his hand to signal, "First of all, I declare , I can’t do it, this thing is a specialized skill, and ordinary people can’t do it.”
"Don't look at me, I can't do it either." Xue Ruitian stretched out his hands, "Look at my hands, they are not made for this."
"I don't know how." Shen Cha shook her head gently, "If you want to dismantle this thing intact, I'm afraid you need to find a master." She looked at Mrs. Ning, "Does Mrs. Ning understand?"
"I've never seen it before!" Mrs. Ning was also surprised. If Xue Ruitian hadn't figured it out, she wouldn't have known there was any hidden secret in it. "This craft really requires a master craftsman. You need to see if there is a framing shop in the city. You also need to see if there is an experienced master craftsman who can dismantle this piece intact. It is not that easy to find. "
