Chapter 245: The Mystery in the Dress
Tanglin Guyun's eyes flashed with a faint warmth: "I remember, one day my wish will come true, I will give you whatever you want." ”
Shen Shaobai blinked, and suddenly smiled very weirdly: "Really, you can give me whatever I want?"
"Hmm. Tanglin Guyun's expression did not move, "Except for Youning." ”
"Huh!" Shen Shaobai pursed his lips, "You react quickly." I'm leaving, go back and continue to find out what's going on in the Valley of Customs. ”
"You take a break, I'll check. Tanglin Guyun stopped him, "Once the location of the Valley of Grace is determined, I want you to go with me to find the underground palace, and now you must recuperate." ”
Shen Shaobai stopped and frowned: "You ......"
"I can," Tanglin Guyun smiled faintly, "Although you are the master of the Tongtian Pavilion, it doesn't mean that I can't find out what you can find." ”
Shen Shaobai had no choice but to nod: "Okay, you have the final say!"
Early the next morning, Tanglin Guyun rushed to the Zhenguo Mansion, told Duanmu Youning Shen Shaobai's investigation results, and asked her to search for relevant information with him.
Since the northernmost point of the Datong Empire is the northernmost point of the Yulin Kingdom today, the point is very clear, and only two days later, an unexpected discovery surprised them: at the beginning of the establishment of the Three Kingdoms, there was indeed a place called the Valley of Customs. But because it was inaccessible and there was nothing worth noting, it gradually drowned in the torrent of history, and no one mentioned it again!
In other words, although no one has heard of the word "Valley of Customs" these days, there is no doubt that that place is real and not legendary!
After confirming this, the two immediately entered the palace to report, and invited Yu Wenheng and Suo Tianli to discuss the plan. Knowing that the location of the Wind Valley had been basically determined, Yu Wenheng was particularly excited, but he was also a little worried: "It has been nearly a thousand years since the establishment of the Yulin Kingdom, and the Valley must not be what it used to be, can we find the exact location?"
Tanglin Luoxi's excitement was also not lost to him, but he tried his best to maintain the apparent majesty: "I won't know until I go." And even if the appearance has changed, the location will not change much. ”
Perhaps because he didn't have much interest in treasures, Suo Tianli was the most insipid of the three, and said in a deep voice: "I don't think I can set off rashly. Although we know that the underground palace may be in the Valley of Customs, we don't have a treasure map or anything like that to guide us, and if we look for it all over the mountains, won't we find the Year of the Monkey?
These words were like a basin of cold water poured down, which made the two of them calm down a lot in an instant. Turning his head to look at Yuwen Heng, Tanglin Luo Xi asked, "Prince Yuwen, apart from the things taken out of the shapeshift, are there any other clues?"
"No more. Yu Wenheng shook his head without hesitation, "Murong Liao doesn't want anyone to find that underground palace, how can he leave too many clues for future generations? ”
For a while, everyone fell into silence, and although Donglin Luo Xi was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, he didn't have any idea at all. Duanmu Youning pondered for a moment, and suddenly spoke: "Prince Yuwen, did you bring the shapeshifter, can you show it to me?"
"Bring it! Bring everything related to the underground palace!" Yu Wenheng nodded without hesitation, "Please Miss Seventh wait, I'll send someone to get it!"
As he spoke, he immediately ordered the guards to go to the inn, while everyone sat down and rested for a while.
After a while, the guards had already taken the shapeshifter, Yu Wenheng stepped forward to take it, and untied the cloth bag and took it out and put it on the table: "Miss Seven, please." ”
Duanmu Youning nodded, first took a pen to fill in the numbers one by one, and after a while, the portrait of Hua Jinse slowly appeared again. Although it is not the first time I have seen her, her rare beauty is still breathtaking, and I am fascinated! And in this way, although Duanmu Youning is three points more beautiful than her, the two are undoubtedly very similar!
Putting down the pen, she carefully observed the flower brocade in the portrait, from head to toe, not even a single hair was spared. Gradually, she really found the clue, and the corners of her lips couldn't help showing a proud smile: "Sure enough, it's here!"
Everyone was taken aback, and hurriedly gathered around, and they heard her continue: "Everyone, with Fang Cai's hint, you might as well take a closer look at Hua Jinse's dress to see if you have found anything." ”
Dress?
The flower in the painting is dressed in a purple gorgeous palace dress, with long sleeves and dancing corners, and the corners of her skirt are flying, indescribably elegant, like a fairy! The dress is painted with all kinds of patterns, which are intricate and tortuous, and ingenious.
This time, it was still Dongling Guyun who first understood the meaning of Duanmu Youning, and after adjusting the angle and looking at it for a while, he also raised the corners of his lips: "I see, but it's just a repetition." ”
"Yun'er, what did you see?" Donglin Luo Xi was secretly a little angry, and said in his heart, what are you two doing here?
Tanglin Chenyang's face was even more ugly, but he had to restrain himself with all his might, and followed with a smile: "Yes, sixth brother, you might as well say it if you see something, after all, the stakes are very high, and you can't delay." ”
Hearing that he was eating, Dongling Guyun didn't care, and tilted the picture slightly: "Father, in fact, this picture is the same as Fang Cai's poem, although some of the lines in it don't look abnormal, but as long as the angle is right, it can be seen that it has also undergone special treatment, showing a dark red color!"
Donglin Luo Xi nodded again and again: "Exactly! Exactly! Exactly! What are these lines? Could it be the ancient characters of the fish-man race?"
"I can't see it at the moment. Dongling Guyun shook his head, "Prince Tianli is very good at drawing, please draw the lines with special colors and take a look." ”
Suo Tianli nodded, immediately stepped forward to adjust the angle and sit down, and sketched out those lines one by one according to the portrait. At the same time, he also noticed that some of the intersections and beginnings of these lines had some ancient characters, so he traced them by hand.
When it was all done, he put down his pen and stood up: "That's it, everyone, please see." ”
This time, everyone's faces showed obvious surprise, because what was presented in front of them was clearly a treasure map!
In order to hide the location of the underground palace and at the same time want to leave some clues, Murong Liao can be described as painstaking. He first ordered someone to create a shapeshifter, and without prompting, no one knew that there was a portrait of Hua Jinse hidden in it.
Even if there is really a smart person who can unravel it, he will only think that he is obsessed with Hua Jinse and does it to express his lovesickness, and it is difficult to think that there is a secret hidden in Hua Jinse's dress.
The white cloth in the dark compartment is written on the words of the Fish-Man Clan, even if the people of the Fish-Man Clan know, they will only think that it is a portrayal of Murong Liao and Hua Jinse's entangled love, and they will never think that there will be clues to the underground palace hidden in it!
After being silent for a while, Suo Tianli exhaled: "Murong Liao is a smart person, but it's a pity that his cleverness has not been used in governing the country, and he has spent all his money." ”
"Yes. Duanmu Youning nodded, "Or, if he hadn't met Hua Jinse, everything that followed might not have happened, and Hua Jinse would be his calamity." ”
"It's useless to talk too much, it's important to get down to business. Tanglin Luo Xi coughed, his eyes fixed on the picture, "Youning, these words are also the ancient characters of the fish-man clan, right?"
Duanmu Youning stepped forward to take a closer look, nodded and said: Yes, please look at the emperor, these two words are 'turn right', these words are 'the first ten miles to the left', here is ......"
With her explanation, Tanglin Luoxi and the others were even more excited: Sure enough, it was a treasure map! Even the direction was indicated!
"Very good! Without further ado!" Tanglin Luo Xi slapped the table and said with great momentum, "Now that the treasure map has appeared, all countries will immediately gather their men and set off!Prince Yuwen, Prince Tianli, do you still need to prepare anything?"
Yu Wenheng groaned slightly: "Yes, Your Majesty, the underground palace is extremely huge, if it can really be found, it also needs to be excavated, cleaned and carried by hand, and it is absolutely impossible to rely on a few of us! The minister will repair a letter and return to China, and ask my father to send people to come over to meet the minister!"
Tanglin Luoxi nodded: "Okay, what about Prince Tianli?"
Suo Tianli didn't say much: "The ministers are the same, I have to ask the emperor to wait a few more days!"
Although Dongling Luo Xi was anxious, he also knew that the two countries would never allow him to set off for the Valley of Customs, so he pretended to be relaxed and smiled: "Naturally, you have to wait, there is a lot of strength in numbers! In this case, the two of you please make your own preparations, and then act after the people of the Three Kingdoms gather!"
The two bowed and saluted, and were just about to turn around and retreat, when Dongling Guyun suddenly spoke: "Father, the son has something to ask for." ”
Tanglin Luo Xi smiled: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Dongling Guyun gently held Duanmu Youning's hand, and said firmly: "Before going to the Valley of Customs, Erchen wants to marry Youning!"
Tanglin Chenyang stiffened, and he almost couldn't help but shout, "No"! Once the two get married, everything will be a foregone conclusion, can they let Dongling Guyun compete with him for the throne?!
Fortunately, Tanglin Luo Xi had already expected his reaction, and immediately glared at him fiercely, and he barely controlled himself, secretly gritting his teeth and thinking of countermeasures.
Stopping him, Tanglin Luo Xi also took the opportunity to calm down and said with a smile: "Oh?
Dongling Guyun smiled faintly: "Do you still need a reason for this?" Youning is already Erchen's person, if it weren't for the accident two years ago, we would have been married! After delaying for a long time, Erchen should also give Youning a name. ”
Dongling Luoxi's eyes flickered, and he quietly looked for an excuse to delay: "But if it is a big wedding now, the time is too rushed, and I am afraid that I will be wronged by Youning......"
"No, it won't. Dongling Guyun shook his head, "You have already married Erchen and Youning before, and Erchen has already been preparing for the big wedding ceremony, and now it is almost over, and you will definitely not wronged her!"
