Chapter 69: The Secret of the Scriptures

When the master handed us the scriptures that had been soaked and dried, he walked out of the room silently, Ouyang Deyuan was full of respect for the master, and the poison saint really had the demeanor of a master.

"Flip it open, I can't wait." I urged Ouyang Deyuan, and he also looked at the scriptures with excitement on his face.

His hand gently opened the scriptures, and then our expressions seemed to change from warm spring to cold winter.

I took the book from his hand and flipped through it, but there were only a few bits and pieces of numbers, and they were so irregularly distributed that I couldn't make sense of it.

"You see that there are three in the upper right corner of the first page, and there is one in the lower left corner, and the second page is also a number, but the position is more messy. This...... What does this mean? "I flipped through the pages, and almost every page was covered with such numbers, and I couldn't find even a single word.

Ouyang Deyuan patted his head and suddenly said, "I understand, I finally understand why there are two scriptures in this book." ”

I looked at him suspiciously, I still didn't understand, what did this have to do with the two scriptures?

He pointed to the numbers in the book and said, "Look at the numbers...... They are all ciphers, which means that the location and number they refer to can be combined with the words in another scripture to find out which word it is, but ...... We're missing one thing. ”

He looked at the messy distribution of numbers, thinking that there must be something else to tell if they were real or fake.

Because there are so many messy numbers, it is clear that some of them are designed to confuse those who read the scriptures.

"But we don't know what to use to make the right numbers...... "I think we've encountered another great obstacle to unlocking the secrets of this book."

Ouyang Deyuan took the scripture book full of numbers and looked at it carefully.

"Lady...... I always thought the distribution of the numbers was familiar to me, but I just couldn't remember it all at once......" he muttered.

I'm afraid he's bothered too much, and he's still injured.

"Okay, don't think about it, just rest well, anyway, we already know so much, it's only a matter of time before we unravel this secret." I helped him lie flat on the bed.

He was also tired, so he had to put down the scriptures in his hand and slowly close his eyes. I patted him on the arm and said, "Let's get some sleep." ”

He suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Lady, I know!"

He struggled to his feet, and pulled out a jade pendant from a box. It looks like a piece of high-quality Hetian jade.

This jade pendant is cleverly hollowed out to carve the shape of a carp, and its appearance is vivid and lovely. However, this shape is usually two carp, which may be only half of them.

I saw him holding the jade pendant in a daze, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

He shook his head and did not speak, but opened the scripture and sent the jade pendant up.

Sure enough, the hole in the middle of the jade pendant was exactly the same as the numbers on the scriptures. It turns out that this method is used to remove the extra numbers.

With so many ways to keep the secrets of the scriptures out there, the people who wrote them were geniuses.

"It's a pity that this jade pendant is only half, otherwise we would have been able to get all the accurate numbers." He closed the book and said in despair.

"Where's the other half of the jade pendant?" Without hesitation, I said that I had finally found a way, but of course I couldn't just give up.

Ouyang Deyuan lowered his head and said lightly: "In Yu'er's hands, this ...... This jade pendant is my father's mother...... It was used as a token for marriage in that year. After he finished speaking, he only lowered his head and did not dare to look at my expression.

I sat grimly on the side, and I told myself to be calm and not to get angry. I picked up the teapot and poured myself a cup of tea.

After taking a big sip of tea, I felt a little calmer.

"What does it matter in her hands? If you can outwit the best, if you can't outwit it, you can rob it! I said coldly.

Ouyang Deyuan really didn't want to see that woman again, last time because of her appearance, he was looking for his wife everywhere, and he had been looking for more than three months, and this time he didn't know what trouble he would cause again.

"When are we going to go to Yangzhou?" I looked at Ouyang Deyuan lightly and said.

He sighed and replied, "When my wounds are healed, we will leave." ”

I nodded, thinking silently in my heart: Okay, you are a jade, the first time you meet, you are robbing my clothes, the second time you meet, you are robbing my father-in-law, and the third time you meet, I will rob your jade pendant! That's what a courtesy can be.

Ouyang Deyuan cultivated at home, and Chengyu in Yangzhou did not have a good life. His father couldn't stop him and continued to cook and cook, and his cousin was always crying and making trouble to go to the imperial city to find Ouyang Deyuan.

"Yu'er, don't make trouble, you were the one who ran away from marriage first, how can you blame Ouyang Gongzi for marrying a wife now?" Master Shou also has a headache for this Yu'er. Why is this niece so willful? I also blame myself, for so many years, I have been too indulgent to her.

Yu'er angrily pointed to a maid beside her and scolded: "It's these cheap women who hurt me!" She raised her hand and slapped the maid.

The maid covered her face and didn't dare to open her mouth or cry, and after the young lady came back this time, she beat and scolded a few of them, and they lived in fear all day long.

Now that she was so good that she received another slap, the maid's eyes were red, and Cheng Yu couldn't look past it and said, "Cousin, they are unintentional at all, don't scold them like this anymore." ”

"I don't care, unless you go and ask Ouyang Deyuan to marry me again, you can fight as much as I want!" She said viciously, and Cheng Yu turned around angrily and ignored her.

Yu'er saw that Chengyu didn't help her, so she had to pull Master Shou to be coquettish.

"Uncle, you can't ignore me, I married Ouyang Deyuan, he doesn't want me, I can't get married. You have to help me. ”

Master Shou had the intention to ignore her, but she was right, she was engaged to Ouyang Gongzi, if he refused to marry, then what would she do?

Her parents have passed away for so long, and he has always raised her as his own daughter, but now he wants to watch her be an old girl in the boudoir, which ...... He didn't give up.

"But Ouyang Gongzi has now married a wife...... Could it be that you are willing to marry him as a child? Master Shou asked her tentatively.

I thought that Yu'er would definitely lose her temper angrily and say no, but to the surprise of Master Shou, Yu'er actually said generously: "That's also done, as long as he is willing to marry me, I am willing to be a child." ”

Yu'er thought to herself that as long as she passed the door, she would have a lot of means to squeeze out the main room, and if she refused to leave with a dead face, then she would decisively end her.

Anyway, in a word, she will never be subservient, Ouyang Deyuan can only be hers alone, and she is the justifiable Mrs. Ouyang.
