Chapter 1288: Return to Chang'an first
A heavy knife fell out of the iron box, looking about a foot longer than Shen Leng's black line knife, the typical style of the Central Plains knife, although it was not Daning's horizontal knife but a wide-backed knife that was more common in Zhou Chu.
Shen Leng was stunned: "How can a prince of the Mongolian Empire use the weapons of our Central Plains." ”
He bent down to pick up the heavy knife, and with his strength, he felt the power of the knife, and weighed it, I am afraid that it is twice as heavy as the black line knife, and it should be nearly a hundred catties.
"Good stuff."
Shen Leng held this heavy knife in his hand, feeling that if this knife was slashed out, even a stone tablet in front of him could be split, if it was Chen Ran's face in front of him, it could be split with a knife, and if it was his own face in front of him...... Not so sure.
He turned the heavy knife over and over again, the material of the scabbard was black and golden, and there were seal characters on it, and if he looked carefully, it was the word Pangu.
"Zhou Dao?"
Shen Leng pulled out the heavy knife, a thick layer of solidified greasy things on the knife body, he tore off a piece of clothing from the tribal leader and wiped it on the knife body, the knife body was as black as his black line knife.
Shen Leng walked to the side of the wall and slashed at the stone wall, leaving a knife mark on the stone wall.
Shen Leng laughed: "I found a treasure." ”
The leader of the tribe looked sad: "This is ...... My ancestors' sword of the Two-Faced King. ”
Shen Leng asked, "Do you recognize the words on this scabbard?" ”
The clan leader immediately nodded: "The ancestral war knife has the word Pangu on it. ”
Shen Leng: "Do you know what Pangu means?" ”
The tribal leader immediately replied, "It's for the sake of opening up the world!" ”
Shen Leng: "That's not for you." ”
Tribal Leader: "......"
He hung the black line knife back behind his back, and returned to the coffin with the Pangu knife, this is the famous double-faced king of the Mongolian Empire, and the items buried around him are of course priceless, there are other things besides this Pangu knife, Shen Leng took out the same things, needless to say, these things are all treasures, Shen Leng let the big ones be loaded, and there is a boxy box, I can't see what material but it's very heavy, there are no holes and no locks, but I can't open it.
"This thing needs to be opened by a skilled craftsman."
The clan leader said with a sad face on the side: "Among the items that are rumored to be buried by the Double-Faced King, the contents of this unsolvable treasure box are the most precious. ”
Shen Leng asked, "Then do you know how to open it?" ”
"I don't know."
The clan leader hurriedly said: "Even the best craftsman in the world may not be able to open it, the manufacturing method of this unsolvable treasure box has been lost for hundreds of years, and the structure of it is ingenious and exquisite......
While!
Before he finished speaking, Shen Leng slashed it with the Pangu knife, and this knife directly shattered the unsolvable treasure box, and the clan leader's mouth suddenly opened wide, and he almost broke his jaw.
Shen Leng pulled the fragments to the side, and said while looking for it: "The double-faced king put this knife next to him, it should be used for unlocking." ”
Tribal Leader: "......"
Shen Leng turned out an iron cylinder from a pile of debris, like a clairvoyant, thicker and longer, and sealed very tightly.
Shen Leng twisted a few times and didn't twist the iron cylinder, so he repeated the trick and used the Pangu knife to cut off one end of the iron cylinder, the more he looked at this knife, the more he liked it: "Not only can it be unlocked, but it can also be used as a starter, the double-faced king is really thoughtful, lest the person who opened his coffin can't open the unsolvable treasure box and can't open the iron cylinder, so put the knife together for future generations to use." ”
Wang Kuohai: "General, I don't think he thought so before he died. ”
Shen Leng said: "Don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. ”
Wang Kuohai: "I think the general overestimated his own wisdom. ”
As soon as Shen Leng turned around, Wang Kuohai immediately hid aside.
Shen Leng pulled out a roll of things in the iron cylinder, and he didn't know what kind of leather or unknown material it was made of, but it wasn't too damaged, he carefully unfolded this thing, and it turned out to be a map.
"Mountains and rivers outside the map."
Shen Leng looked at the four words on the map, not the words of Zhou but the words of the Meng Empire, these four words are too easy to recognize, so I can recognize them.
"Explain?"
Shen Leng looked at the tribal leader, the tribal leader didn't want to speak, Wang Kuohai walked to his side, he immediately covered his chin, and said very respectfully: "Legend has it that the ancestor of the two-faced king and the Great Khan fought a decisive battle, and after the defeat, he evacuated to a more distant place with tens of thousands of soldiers, I don't know how to get this map of mountains and rivers, which is said to be the place where the treasure buried by the ancestors is located." ”
He crouched on the edge of the map and looked at it carefully, the map originally had colors, but after taking it out, the color quickly faded, turning from color to gray.
"This ......"
The tribal leader's face changed after looking at it for a while: "This is not a treasure map, this is a map of Heiwu to the northeast, the northeast border of Heiwu is Beimi Mountain, the mountain is steep and cannot be passed, you see." ”
He stretched out his hand and pointed on the map: "This is Beimi Mountain, and the map shows the place outside Beimi Mountain." ”
Shen Leng let out a long breath: "I don't think Heiwu will be the end of the world. ”
The map seemed to be still changing, so he hurriedly put the map back into the iron box and found something to seal it: "Keep the map, go back and send someone back to Chang'an as soon as possible." ”
Shen Leng got up and looked around, there were a lot of things piled up around this tomb, he commanded, and the soldiers immediately went over to search, what was covered on those things, they broke when they touched it, and the soldiers' eyes widened after cleaning up a piece.
"Gold."
"It's all gold!"
When Wang Kuohai heard this, he immediately ran over and cleaned up with the soldiers, and after about two moments, the covering was cleared, and at a rough glance, the amount of gold piled up here could fill a carriage.
"Where's this knife?"
Shen Leng looked at the clan leader and said seriously: "It's called Pangu Knife, it is a famous knife in the Central Plains and the Zhou Dynasty, the gods of the Central Plains in myths and legends use it to open the world, that is our Central Plains immortals, it was originally going to be our part, and your piece was opened purely for convenience, understand?" ”
The clan leader shook his head, then nodded hurriedly.
Shen Leng said: "Our immortals in the Central Plains used this knife to open the heavens and the earth, so that you have the earth and sky you have now, you say, how much favor this is for you, so what...... This gold, I will take it as a thank you fee for our gods in the Central Plains, and I will also accept your thanks for him, after all, you have no home without him. ”
Shen Leng instructed Wang Kuohai: "Go and inform our people, tie up all the black martial arts captives, leave fifty people to guard, and the others come over and vacate a few cars." ”
Then he instructed his own soldiers: "Take good care of the chief, and we will have to thank him for sending us off in person when we go out in a while." ”
There is a clan leader in Shen Leng's hands, and the people of this small tribe do not dare to do it easily, less than an hour later, under the guidance of the guide, Chen Ran and the people arrived, and when he saw the gold, the light in his eyes was more dazzling than gold.
"I'll make up ......."
Chen Ran looked at Shen Leng: "The funds for us to go to Xiaohuai River have been settled." ”
Shen Leng: "......"
"It seems that I really have to go back to Chang'an first."
Shen Leng looked at the clan leader: "Let all your people gather in the big cave hall outside, and no one is allowed to act rashly, otherwise they will kill you." ”
The tribal leader didn't dare to resist, and sent people back to deliver the message, and after a while, the more than 1,000 people gathered again, Shen Leng let Wang Kuohai take a good look at the tribal leader, and he took Chen Ran and the soldiers to search other caves.
It's a pity that there is nothing valuable in other caves, and there is actually a granary here, but the grain is completely unwanted, and it looks almost the same color as the stone.
It took more than a dozen boxes of gold to pack them all, and the soldiers were cleaning up the tomb and cleaning out the armor of the Double-Faced King by the way, the armor pieces were actually fine, obviously the material was extraordinary, but the rope that pierced the armor pieces was rotten, so it looked broken.
"You see, we are not black warriors, we are not so cruel and kill people, and in order to show goodwill, I also plan to give you some gifts."
After Shen Leng finished speaking to the clan leader, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and instructed Chen Ran: "Take people back, bring back all the black warrior captives, and bring back half of the cattle and sheep." ”
Chen Ran hurriedly ordered people to go, and in the second half of the night, everything was brought over, six or seven hundred black martial arts prisoners of war were tied up and brought over, and cattle and sheep were driven into the cave.
Shen Leng walked up to the tribal leader, smiling kindly, harmless to humans and animals, but the tribal leader was scared when he saw him laughing, and subconsciously shrank back.
"This cow and sheep!"
Shen Leng waved his hand: "I gave it to you, you must think that there is food in this cave, right, I have seen it, the cattle and sheep food you brought will not last long at all, so these cattle and sheep are not very important to you." ”
The clan leader really didn't expect Shen Leng to give him something, it was still hundreds of cattle and sheep, it was indeed what they needed, he couldn't believe it was true, and looked at Shen Leng in surprise.
Shen Leng said: "It's time to say thank you." ”
Tribal Leader: "Thank you......"
Shen Leng: "You're welcome." ”
He pointed to the captives again: "You see, I have prepared six or seven hundred strong slaves for you, and they are all very powerful, and you can drive them as you please, and beat them if you don't obey." ”
The clan leader hurriedly shook his head: "Ghost Moon people....... Don't dare to ask, can't let them be our slaves, don't dare. ”
Shen Leng: "You have to say you dare, what should you do if you say you don't dare?" ”
The clan leader was stunned: "What's behind?" ”
Shen Leng looked into his eyes and said in a sincere tone: "These are not gifts, just now I exchanged hundreds of cattle and sheep for your gold, this is an equivalent exchange, right?" ”
Tribal Leader: "No...... That's right. ”
Shen sneered and nodded, with a look of approval.
"And what about these slaves? I plan to sell it to you, the price is definitely not high, you can buy gold and silver if you have gold and silver in your hands, anyway, you plan to live in seclusion here in the future and you will not be able to use gold and silver, exchange gold and silver for slaves, and make more money? ”
He asked, "Did you say that?" ”
Tribal Leader: "No...... It has to be. ”
He looked at Shen Leng cautiously: "Okay, there's a price, right?" How much does this slave cost? ”
Shen Leng: "Let's sell it, let's estimate it." ”
Tribal Leader: "This...... Not very understood. ”
Shen Leng said: "What does it mean to estimate the pile, that is, the prisoners of war on my side are so big, and all the gold and silver treasures on your side are so big, I exchange the slaves I use for all your gold and silver, it's worth it, right?" ”
Tribal Leader: "This ......"
Shen Leng: "Do you think I'm losing?" Do you have anything else to add to the price, might as well tell me? ”
The clan leader hurriedly said: "No, no, so be it!" ”
Shen sneered: "Sure enough, he is a smart person, you don't want to give up at the sight of such a profitable business, your eyes are full of desire." ”
Before dawn, Shen Leng left the mountain with a cart full of gold, and Shen Sneer's mouth couldn't close when he sat in the carriage.
"I originally planned to sell these prisoners of war to the border army of our Gedi City when I went back, five taels of silver each, and hundreds of them are thousands of taels, and I used the money from the sale of prisoners of war to give everyone red envelopes, but now I don't have to worry."
Shen Leng waved his hand: "I can't go back to Dongjiang first, go back to Chang'an first!" ”
