Chapter 361: Exploration

The crescent moon is already the second watch.

The three tied their horses to a distance of five miles from the village, and the three of them reached the outside of the village on foot. Liu Yong and Su Erniang were waiting for Liu Qiang under a big tree, Liu Qiang entered the village alone, and quietly entered the courtyard of the old village chief's house.

There were some chickens, ducks and geese in the yard of the old village chief's house, and Liu Qiang had to be extra careful so as not to alarm them. If you make a noise, it will alarm the owner's house. That's not going to be fun.

Liu Qiang took advantage of the faint moonlight and walked to the bottom of the east wing by sticking to the root of the wall. He leaned down and reached the door, and found that there was indeed a brass lock on it. It can't be opened without a key.

But what does he Liu Qiang do? In the past, it was also fast! Naturally, opening a lock is not a problem. He pulled out a master key, which he had only recently carried with him, just in case. And today it came in handy.

There was a slight click, and the lock was opened.

He didn't go straight into the house, but looked around to see if anyone around him was alarmed by the soft click.

No, he was relieved, and opened the door gently, gently, gently. The slight sound of the door opening did not alarm anyone or animals either.

He successfully entered the East Wing. Then gently close the door again. It was pitch black in the room, but it didn't matter, he had a fire break. I took it out and blew it, and the room lit up slightly.

He held it up and looked at the whole room, it was clean, and there was an offering table on the south wall. I don't know what kind of god is offered on it.

There was no furniture in the room except for the offering table.

Liu Qiang went straight to the offering table. Sure enough, there are village rules on it. There are also village chronicles and genealogies. It seems that Lord Liu guessed correctly. He's such a smart man! Liu Qiang couldn't help but admire Liu Yonglai in his heart. In fact, he has admired Liu Yong for a long time, and this is just another time.

Without saying a word, in order to be in a hurry, he picked up the village rules and went out, then locked the door again, went to the roof as soon as he jumped up, and went out of the yard with another leap.

These rabbit ups and downs are very light and vigorous, showing his high light skills.

When he returned to Liu Yong, Liu Yong asked, "Got it?" ”

"Well, there's it." Liu Qiang said as he took out the village rules from his arms so that he could give them to Liu Yong.

Liu Yong took the village rules, and led Su Erniang and Liu Qiang to a hidden place. Under a bridge hole, and then asked Liu Qiang to light a fire to check the village rules.

There are twenty-six of them. The last three are the most severe, the ones that the old village chief said.

But after watching it for a long time, I didn't see a clue.

"Xianggong, this is the regulation and punishment for mistakes? Where is the password? Su Erniang asked.

Liu Yong couldn't see it, and Liu Qiang couldn't see it, and he also took it to study it for a long time, but in the end he couldn't see anything

Liu Yong also frowned. Frozen for a moment.

Seeing the time passing little by little, Liu Yong suddenly thought of something just when he was about to give up, and asked Liu Qiang to light the fire and open the village rules to see.

He found that one of the characteristics of the village rules was that each article used the same number of words. In this way, it looks like a square word.

Liu Yong began to read the words on it vertically and diagonally, and finally let him read them. In the ancestral tomb of the jade seal, the people of the clan cannot be moved, but the person surnamed Liu can.

As soon as Liu Yong finished reading it, the three of them were stunned.

Because the four words of the jade seal of the country are not trivial! What surprised the three of them even more was that it was said that the person surnamed Liu could be moved. In other words, only those surnamed Liu can take this heirloom jade seal.

Liu Yong may not know that this heirloom jade seal was engraved by Li Si, the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty at that time, on the order of Qin Shi Huang, with the Heshi Bi, which is the evidence of the orthodox emperors of China.

Its square circle is four inches, on the New York hand over five dragons, the front is engraved with the eight seal characters of Li Si's book "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang", in order to serve as a token of "imperial power granted by heaven, orthodox and legitimate".

After the Qin Dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties took this seal as a symbol, and they were like rare treasures, and they were also important weapons of the country. If you get it, it symbolizes that it is "ordered by the sky", and if you lose it, it shows that its "qi has been exhausted". Those who ascend to the throne without this seal are ridiculed as "white emperors", which appear to be lacking in confidence and are despised by the world.

This is a very valuable thing!

At this time, Liu Yong's surname happened to be Liu, so he could have this heirloom jade seal.

"Xianggong, this is the will of heaven!" Su Erniang said.

"Yes, my lord, it seems that this heirloom jade seal belongs to you." Liu Qiang said hatefully.

But Liu Yong was blindfolded, this thing is not something that ordinary people can play with, and if you don't get it, you will destroy your family.

Seeing Liu Yong's blindfolded appearance, Su Erniang asked, "Xianggong, what's wrong with you?" ”

Liu Yong shook his head and smiled. said, "I wonder if I want this thing!" ”

"My lord, why not? It's something everyone wants! With it, you can justifiably be the emperor. Liu Qiang said.

"But Brother Liu knows that once you have this thing, you will become the target of public criticism. Disaster is coming. Liu Yong expressed his concern.

This sentence made Liu Qiang speechless.

Indeed, the heroes of all dynasties and dynasties, which one did not take obtaining the jade seal of the country as a top-level task to complete. And how many people have died here.

"Xianggong, what are you going to do?" Su Erniang asked.

Liu Yong shook his head, because he didn't know what to do at the moment.

After a while, Liu Qiang said: "My lord, my subordinates think that you should have this heirloom jade seal, this is your fate with it." ”

Liu Yong still didn't speak, and the struggle in his heart was also very fierce at this time.

"Your Excellency, you see, it was you who discovered this village, and you became friends with it. The people in the village love you very much. And you also want to abolish the village rules in order to lift the persecution of the villagers. Again, you thought of the secret hidden in the village rules. And this secret is what you discovered. The main thing is that your surname is Liu. Liu Qiang said a series of reasons why Liu Yong could not refuse.

The truth is the truth, and Liu Yong has also thought about it.

"But your surname is also Liu?" Liu Yong asked with a smile.

"Hey, my lord, although my subordinates are also surnamed Liu, none of these were discovered by my subordinates? What's more, my subordinates are just a guard under the adults, and God must have asked me to help the adults get this heirloom jade seal. Two people surnamed Liu, I'm afraid no one can say who is coming! Liu Qiang said.

Liu Yong still didn't speak.

Liu Qiang continued: "Moreover, what kind of person am I, Liu Qiang, is just a reckless man, even if I have the heirloom jade seal by my side, it is useless." But you are different, you are a god-like being! This heirloom jade seal belongs to you. ”
