Chapter 46: The Stone Returns
After listening to Luan Tingyu's speech, Wu Song understood why a small Zhujiazhuang would attract so many forces to covet it, and it turned out that everything was because of this ancient hundred steel smelting map.
This picture is worthless to ordinary people, but its significance to the army is incalculable. Imagine victory when the blades of one soldier's soldiers can easily cut through the weapons of the other soldier.
Especially in today's Great Song Dynasty, Fangla, Western Xia, and Liaojin perennial melee, the value of this ancient map is even greater, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth a thousand gold.
According to the value of this ancient map, it is not difficult to guess the Beijing of the other three forces, Wu Song estimates that they must all be people from the military, including Fang Jie, who already knows Beijing, and the others are either related to Song Huizong, or the spies of foreign clans in the Central Plains, such as Liaojin, Xixia, etc.
But in this way, it made Wu Song a little difficult, if he chose to help Fang La, then after Fang La got the ancient map, his strength would definitely be greatly enhanced. Then when it competes with the Song Dynasty, no matter who wins or loses, it will make Dajin, a fisherman, pick up enough cheap. At that time, I don't know how many people of the Great Song Dynasty will die under the iron hooves of the Jin army.
When Wu Song was meditating, he suddenly realized a key question, and he immediately opened his mouth to ask Luan Tingyu, "Senior brother, since I promised Zhu Gongzi, I will definitely not regret it, but I still have something unclear, I hope you can answer me?" ”
"Senior brother, please speak."
"I don't understand, since this picture is in your hands, why don't you copy a few copies and distribute it to everyone, so that Zhujiazhuang can not be offended anywhere?" Wu Song asked very seriously.
"If this can really be done, then Zhu Gongzi doesn't have to be so troubled." Luan Tingyu smiled bitterly, and then asked rhetorically, "Senior brother, do you know how long it took Zhu Dao, the ancestor of the Zhu family, to paint this picture?" ”
"I don't know, please say it clearly."
Luan Tingyu said with an incredulous expression, "Forty years, from the time he made this picture when he was thirty years old, to the time when he was old, it took forty years." ”
"Forty years?" Wu Song was also a little shocked, how many forty years can there be in life, this ancestor of the Zhu family spent most of his life, just to reduce the quenching time of 100 steel, this spirit also made him admire.
Luan Tingyu continued, "So it's no problem for ordinary people to understand this picture, but within a day, they will definitely forget it completely, let alone copy this picture." ”
Even a smart person like Zhu Dao had to spend nearly forty years to complete the drawing, and the complexity of this picture can be imagined, so thinking about it, Wu Song's interest in that ancient map is even greater.
He even thought to himself, "Is it because these ancients have some ideological barriers, so they are helpless, maybe he, a high-IQ killer from the 21st century, can understand it." ”
Thinking of this, Wu Song opened his mouth and asked, "Senior brother, I wonder where this ancient map is placed now?" ”
"Don't you know, junior brother, it's in the house where you live, and now the people who come to my Zhujiazhuang to compete and grab pictures are also there, this is also a kind of checks and balances for Zhu Gongzi, so that they can beware of each other, and no one dares to make trouble in these six days, otherwise, with the defense of Zhujiazhuang, it will definitely not be able to prevent those people's open guns and hidden arrows." Luan Tingyu explained.
After listening to Luan Tingyu's words, Wu Song understood why he lived in that house, Zhu Long and the others would have such an order, it turned out that it was really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, Wu Song then asked, "Senior brother, can you let me go and observe this ancient map at a certain time in these six days?" ”
Luan Tingyu shook his head helplessly, and said, "Senior brother, you don't know, since the last time that group of Taoists came to Zhujiazhuang to rob the ancient map, in order to ensure its safety, this map was placed on an open elevated shelf in the square of the house, and the elevated stand in the center of the square. The square is closed on all sides, and only six days later, everyone competes in front of the ancient map, and the winner can get the ancient map. Now, anyone who comes close to the square will probably be attacked by several other forces in the house. ”
So that's the case, since the defense is so tight, Wu Song had to temporarily dispel the idea of looking at this ancient map.
Unconsciously, Wu Song and Luan Tingyu had been talking for most of the hour, and at this time, it was almost late at night, and the oil lamps in the room were getting smaller and smaller, swaying, dragging the figures of the two of them for a long time.
Wu Song saw that it was almost late at night, so he said goodbye to Luan Tingyu and returned to his room.
Wu Song walked to the door and found that the light was still on in his house, and from outside the door, a slender figure was faintly visible. Wu Song was surprised in his heart, pushed the door in, and turned out to be Mei'er, a woman.
I saw Mei'er sitting at the table, holding her cheeks in one hand and a small wooden stick in the other, picking up the wick in the oil lamp on the table from time to time. The pale yellow light is reflected on Liu Meier's face, giving people a classical and elegant feeling.
She heard the sound of pushing the door, raised her head, and when she saw that it was Wu Song, her eyes immediately showed a gentle look. She stood up, trotted in front of Wu Song, and shouted happily, "Xianggong, you're finally back." ”
Wu Song caressed Mei'er's cheek lovingly and said, "Mei'er, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?" ”
"Xianggong, I'm here to ......" Liu Mei'er blushed, but said with a firm face. A few days ago, Wu Song and Hu Sanniang's emotional kiss made her heart full of vinegar, a few days ago in the carriage, she did not become a real husband and wife with Wu Song because of her body, so today Liu Meier is planning to meet all the requirements of her husband, including those non-specific requirements he made the day before yesterday, thinking of this, Liu Meier couldn't help but blush slightly, and her voice became lower and lower.
But before Liu Mei'er finished speaking, Wu Song picked her up, kissed her smooth cheek, and then walked out of the door, saying as she walked, "Mei'er is really my good lady, are you worried about Xianggong, now that I'm back, you can sleep well, come, Xianggong will personally carry you to the room." ”
"You-" Liu Mei'er was hugged by Wu Song and walked to her room, wanting to blame him for not understanding the amorous style, but she couldn't bear to blame, so she had to pout, looking sullen.
Actually, this can't all be blamed on Wu Song, in those days in the carriage, Liu Meier rejected Wu Song every time because of her body, once or twice was okay, and after three or four times, Wu Song got used to it. So when he saw Liu Meier in his room this time, he wouldn't have reacted.
Sent Mei'er, who was unhappy, back to the room, Wu Song also returned to his room, he kissed Hu Sanniang passionately today, and talked with Zhu Long and others for so long, he was already very tired. So as soon as he lay down on the bed, he fell into a deep sleep.
Wu Song didn't know that in the dark, there was a pair of eyes staring at him and Liu Meier's every move, and their eyes were full of resentment and revenge.
Nothing happened overnight.
Wu Song was really tired yesterday, so he slept lazily and didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning. As soon as he got up, he saw a familiar face.
"Stones." Wu Song saw two people in the courtyard, one of which was Shishi.
"Big brother." Shi stood up, and when he saw Wu Song, his face was excited.
Wu Song thought that Fang Jie was really trustworthy, but he still asked uneasily, "Stone, you tell the eldest brother that you didn't suffer where Fang Gongzi is, if there is, the eldest brother will help you get angry." ”
"No, the stone knows, the eldest brother is the best for the stone, but Wang Jin's house is still there, big brother, you rescue him quickly." Although Shi Shi is a straightforward man, his eyes are also slightly red at this time.
Next, Wu Song and Shi told each other about their respective situations after Wu Song's disappearance. It turned out that Shi Shi was in a conflict with Fang Jie and others on the Oolong Ridge, and the two were almost killed after being captured, but Shi Shi said that Wu Song's martial arts were the best in the world and would definitely teach them a lesson, which aroused Fang Jie's fighting spirit, and the two escaped.
Wu Song also revealed his bet with Fang Jie to the stone.
The two chatted for a long time, and Wu Song noticed that there was another person next to him, and he hurriedly asked, "Wu doesn't know that Mr. is here, how much is he neglected, I don't know Mr.'s name?" ”
Seeing this person's green shirt and small hat, he was elegant, he got up and said, "In Xia An Daoquan, I will be ordered by the young master to be sent by the capital."
