"What happened next? Did you really invite me?"
"Of course not, how is it possible!" Mr. Jiang saw the expressions of the children and couldn't laugh or cry. "If your uncle dares to do such a ridiculous thing, the entire Yushitai will explode. Those who were originally The imperial censors who don’t know who to look for in the pigtails should be excited. They will definitely point out your majesty’s mistakes in a series of memorials for more than half a month, so that your majesty will realize that you should not believe in fortune telling and the like. Yes, how can Mr. Right believe this?"
"Not only that, they will sit quietly at the gate of the palace until His Majesty appeases them and shows weakness to them." Xue Ruitian sneered, "They are very familiar with this job. If they don't come here every once in a while, , they themselves can’t live with it.”
"So, in order to avoid this situation, my eldest nephew endured it, but secretly told Lao Xia to be nicer to you or something." Second Master Jiang looked at Uncle Qi, "This is also when something happens to the Xia family, you One of the reasons why I was able to escape unscathed."
"Thank you Lord for your kindness. The late Emperor's kindness will never be forgotten in my lifetime."
Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and Xue Ruitian looked at each other and then looked at the chart. They found that the area they had just painted on was not dry yet. They sighed slightly. This picture in the picture was quite troublesome.
"By the way, I just remembered, you said treasure..." Jiang Erye patted his leg and looked at Qi Bo, "If I remember correctly, have we encountered such a treasure map before? ? Is it a picture-within-a-picture type?"
"Shall we come?" Qi Bo thought for a moment and shook his head gently, "When? I don't even remember!"
"You have such a bad memory!" Mr. Jiang rolled his eyes and said angrily, "The year before the Xia family's accident, Lao Xia invited us to go to a village in the suburbs. We passed an abandoned village on the way. How about you? Do you remember?"
"Ah, yes, there is such a thing, I suddenly remembered it!" Qi Bo was reminded of that incident by Master Jiang. Seeing the curious expressions of the children, he smiled and explained, "We When you are young, you can’t talk about youthful things. Anyway, when you are not old and you still love to play, as long as there is nothing wrong, you are willing to make an appointment to go to the village in the suburbs to play together. "
"The Xia family's village..." Shen Haolin thought for a while, "You will pass by an abandoned house. The house seems to have belonged to a merchant in the past, but it was burned beyond recognition. Is this what the second grandfather and Qi Bo were talking about?"
"Yes, I actually didn't pass by on purpose. I just took the wrong road and saw that house. Young people like adventure, so I went in to take a look and found a picture in the painting. After deciphering it, I found out that it was A treasure map, we followed the map and found the location of the treasure. It was in a deep mountain about thirty miles away from Xijing City. We dug out the so-called treasure according to the location indicated on the map."
"What is it?"
"There are two jars in total. One jar contains ten ingots of gold. On top of the gold are almost 100,000 taels of silver notes. The other jar contains a complaint and some evidence. The complaint is against Guo Kai, the former Minister of Civil Affairs. , saying that he was tyrannical and unruly, relying on his status as a high official in the imperial court and his family background to bully innocent merchants, rob merchants of their property, and take possession of their women. The suffering man had no way to cry, so he could only hide the last bit. To obtain property, seal the collected evidence and complaint in a jar, bury it in the mountains, and then draw the place where the treasure is hidden on paper using a special drawing method. If you meet someone who is destined, ask the person who is destined to avenge you. Inside the jar The gold and silver notes are the reward.”….
"What happened next?" Xue Ruitian was very interested in this, "Did you find Guo Kai's descendants?"
"Of course not." Mr. Jiang gently shook his head, "The Guo family died in the fire together with the last emperor of the previous dynasty when the previous dynasty was destroyed. Because the Guo family is gone, we can't take them. For this reward, we buried the jars as they were, and then burned the treasure map. What we thought was, let these two jars be dusted forever. After all, the family's revenge was avenged."
"So that's it." Shen Cha nodded and looked at the sea chart, "So, these bumps are actually key points that need to be hidden. As long as they are covered with water,
Just paint it on? "
"Of course it's not that simple." Jiang Erye waved his hand gently, "This water is not ordinary water, it is wine diluted with water. After applying it, you have to wait for it to dry before applying the second layer. Twice."
"Is this the same water the second time?"
"Yes!" Qi Bo nodded, "When the second coat is dry, you need to use a special potion to paint the entire painting again. Only when it dries can you see what you really want to express." After that, he Looking at Zhen Buhui next to him, "Do you understand?"
"I understand!" Zhen Buhui nodded, "Uncle Qi, do you want me to complete this?"
"Of course, you have good hands. We are older now and are not so stable, so we have to let you young people do it." Qi Bo looked at the others with a look of disgust, "They are all very stupid, except for being able to draw formations. Fa, you don’t know anything, this is just a picture, if you let them do it, it will be ruined, and you have to be so handy."
"This..." Zhen Buhui suddenly received such an important mission, and suddenly felt a little confused, "This..."
"Don't do this, that, don't worry, we are watching, you don't have to worry." Jiang Erye patted his shoulder, "Come on, now paint these protruding parts first, and slowly paint them , just like what your Qi Bo just did.”
Zhen Buhui looked at the guys behind him who were particularly gloating about his misfortune and shook his head helplessly. He accepted the brush handed over by Merlin resignedly, filled the big bowl of wine with it, and started his work tonight. Work.
"It's been applied three times. It shouldn't be over yet, right?" Shen Haolin glanced at Qi Bo, "Are there any other processes that need to be done?"
"Yes, it seems that when the third layer is applied, we need a knife to gently scrape off the top layer at a specific location." "A specific location?" Shen Haolin frowned slightly, "It's those bumps ?」
"It's hard to say yet." Qi Bo shook his head gently. "This picture within the picture is very complicated. At least it is much more complicated than the treasure map we saw last time. I can't say whether this step of scratching it will cause any problems." This will be the last step."
"What are the next steps?"
"If what we are looking for is not what we are looking for, we have to scrape the second or even third layer, but..." Qi Bo sighed softly, "As far as we know, there is no one who can do this. There is only one person in the world, but this person should be dead long ago. And if this thing belongs to him, then we will be in big trouble!"….
"Uncle Qi, who is this person you are talking about? The last emperor of the previous dynasty?"
"Of course not!" Second Master Jiang stared at Zhen Buhui's paintings over and over again while explaining, "The last emperor of the previous dynasty did not even dare to say a word in front of him, of course, if he is still alive."
"Who is it?"
"I don't know if you have heard of Master Falian. He was from the royal family of the previous dynasty. According to his seniority, he should be from the great-grandfather of the last emperor. However, when he was very young, almost when he was born, He was accepted as a disciple by the Taoist monk of Xiangguo Temple. Master Falian was still alive when the previous dynasty was destroyed, but he had been traveling around for many years before the destruction of Xijing City."
"Why do you say that if it were Master Fa Lian, we would be in big trouble?"
"This master is so wise that he is almost demonic. He is better at pharmacology, painting, calligraphy, and even has very good kung fu. The most important point is that the navy of the previous dynasty was actually established under his instruction, and even in In the offshore battle against the Japanese pirates, he killed the largest general of the Japanese pirates and took back all the islands that the Japanese pirates had seized." Qi Bo looked at the chart, "If I remember correctly, the chart on this volume What is drawn is the sea area owned by the previous dynasty after the offshore war."
"Does this large area belong to the previous dynasty?"
"Yeah!" Uncle Qi nodded, "It's just that in the last years, this area..." Uncle Qi pointed to the area on the left and up, "They all became independent and were no longer under the jurisdiction of the previous dynasty. Later I heard that there was Some small clans who escaped from Xijing City and were displeased by the late emperor took over as their own, but we don't know very well whether they did or not." He looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and Xue Ruitian and noticed their expressions It doesn't seem very good,
He raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's going on? Why is your expression so solemn?"
"Because what you just said is basically consistent with our guess. The only difference is that the owner of this painting is the last emperor of the previous dynasty."
"How could the last emperor be so lucky to leave the capital? His life can only be a miserable life, a life of being trapped in the palace and fighting with beasts." Qi Bo sneered, "Only this Master Falian That’s when you are truly free from worldly control, you can do whatever you want, and go wherever you want.”
"Uncle Qi, this master is very proficient in pharmacology?" Jin Miaomiao thought for a long time, "Is it possible..." She pointed at Zhen Buhui with her chin raised, and then pointed at Shen Cha, "Follow him related?"
"Ah? Ah!" Qi Bo reacted quickly and patted his forehead gently, "You mean the medicine, right?"
"Yes, is it all related to him?"
"No!" Qi Bo shook his head gently, denying Jin Miaomiao's guess. He looked at Shen Cha, who looked expectant, and sighed, "If Master Fa Lian is still alive, then he may have the same fate as them. experience. I talked with an elder in your family, and he mentioned that he seemed to have seen four or five identical pill bottles. If he remembered correctly, then there were at least one or two other people who had the same experience as them. Situation. Of course, it is not ruled out that some people will have some adverse reactions after taking this medicine, but unlike them, they can get through it smoothly. "….
"Understood." Shen Cha nodded, "After we saw this picture and listened to Mrs. Ning's explanation, we concluded that the mastermind behind the Qinglian Sect was probably related to the previous dynasty. Although my elders said that there had been similar incidents before. The situation happened, but we analyzed it and found that the situation he was talking about was actually to come out and cause trouble for a while, and then stop when it was good. He would not pursue and fight fiercely, let alone frame any unjust cases. What those people did was harmless. Yes, what we encountered is not like the style of those people. If the mastermind behind the Qinglian Sect is related to the previous dynasty, it makes sense, and it can explain why they are so poor towards us. He chased and fought because he wanted revenge, revenge for the previous dynasty, and revenge for the previous royal family."
"Yes!" Shen Haolin agreed with Shen Cha's statement, "This can explain why he attracted and used the clans left over from the previous dynasty. He could take advantage of their unwillingness and their ambition to seduce them, thus Let those big clans pay a certain price to achieve his goal. Maybe his goal is not to kill us, or whatever, but he must make us uncomfortable, make us sad, and make us restless. Look. When we worry about him, whether he can't eat or sleep well, we may be very happy."
"Not only that." Xue Ruitian handed Shen Haolin a cup of tea, asked him to moisten his throat, and continued, "In order to keep us occupied, he also made trouble at the border with several border officials, such as using the Wanyan family and the tribes on the southwest border. He wants internal and external troubles to break out at the same time, and if this can destroy Daxia, that would be the best."
"What you said is very reasonable." Second Master Jiang looked at Uncle Qi, then at the children around him, chuckled, and said, "But he is wrong. He is no longer capable of this in Daxia." It's hard to mess with him. After several sieges, the Qinglian Sect's strength is no longer what it used to be. If they still think about using these methods, they will only expose him more and more, forcing him more and more to come to the front. "
"Yes!" Qi Bo nodded, "However, Master Falian is just my guess. After all, in my knowledge, he is the only one who can do this. Apart from him, I can't think of anyone else who can do this." ability, so you can focus on him for the time being."
"Then our most important task now is to confirm that he is still alive?"
"Isn't that Lao Qi back? If you think that the mastermind behind the Qinglian Sect has his lair on the sea, you might know Lao Qi. If you don't know him, you may have seen him. Just ask him about it later. ." Qi Bo thought for a while and couldn't help but sneered, "If it is really Master Fa Lian, after you capture him, don't be busy killing him first. Remember to let me go and take a look. I will also take a look at this legendary figure. What does the holy monk look like?"
