Chapter 146: Why don't you open up at all
"If Niu San's statement that the evil sword is in the city lord's mansion is correct, then according to the map, the secret of the evil sword should be hidden in this area. ”
With Lu Yuan's nod, Wang Mang and Lu Yao behaved well in the mansion without hindrance, everyone seemed to ignore Wang Mang and the two, even Lu Yuan didn't know where they went, Wang Mang and the two had been walking around the mansion for a long time, and they didn't see a single figure.
At this moment, Wang Mang and Lu Yao were standing in the garden of the mansion, comparing the map, Wang Mang stared for a moment, and determined that the so-called treasure was either not, and if there was, it must be in this garden.
"Master, little boy, they appear in the study now, and they seem to be looking for something. ”
"Don't worry. Lu Yuan's face was expressionless.
"Sir, little boy, they are now in the front yard, rummaging things around. ”
"Don't worry. Lu Yuan frowned.
"Master, little boy, they are in the backyard now, and many rooms are directly entered, and the backyard is full of chickens and dogs. ”
"Don't worry. Lu Yuan gritted his teeth.
"Master, little boy, they left the backyard, and now they are in the back garden, they have been staying for a long time, and it seems that the back garden is their destination. ”
"Finally stopped. Lu Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief, and if Lu Yao continued to do this in his mansion, he couldn't stand it.
Immediately, Lu Yuan frowned and said, "Do you know what they are looking for?"
"I don't know, it seems to be some kind of treasure, muttering, I can't hear clearly. ”
Keep staring. Lu Yuan sighed: "It's big, I can't take care of it, by the way, did I find out who the thieves they met before? Even the people of my Lu family dare to move, are they impatient?"
"There is no news yet, but the local bandits and robbers have not made any changes, it should be done by thieves from other places, and the specific details can only be determined when the news from the scene is sent. ”
"Well, keep staring. Lu Yuan rubbed his eyes and said, "How is Wang Wengui doing?"
"I was a little active at first, but now I'm a lot quieter, and I feel a little bit like sitting firmly in Diaoyutai. ”
"Sit firmly on the Diaoyutai?" Lu Yuan said with some amusement: "This word is used well, it seems that the house has been cleaned up." ”
"Everything was expected by the master. ”
"Who makes us weak, we can't do the huge river Yamen group behind Wang Wengui, and we can't get the Chang'an City represented by Wang Laoshi, we can only walk a tightrope and juggle like this. Lu Yuan sighed and said, "You keep staring, I'm thinking about something here." ”
An old man in gray-brown clothes nodded silently at Lu Yuan, and slowly withdrew from Lu Yuan's sight.
Wang Mang and Lu Yao looked around the back garden, looked at each other, Wang Mang said: "Unless we dig three feet into the ground, it will definitely not work to find it like this, this garden has no problem at all on the surface, and this place is now a garden, what was it thousands of years ago, who knows?"
"What should I do then?" Lu Yao looked sad and said, "I bragged in front of Lu Yuan, I can't lose face in front of him." ”
"It's all this time, how do you remember that little bit of with Lu Yuan, is it interesting?" Wang Mang was speechless.
"Interesting. Lu Yao nodded and said, "Don't you know that this is the kind of thing that we women like to do the most?"
"......" Wang Mang.
"What should I do?" Lu Yao saw that Wang Mang didn't speak, and asked again, Lu Yao was very self-aware, and knew that in front of Wang Mang, his little brain was not enough at all.
"Let's first assume that this is the so-called treasure hiding place, then it can be inferred that the ancestors of the Lin family will never hide the evil sword in a place where they can't find it, so they will never let us dig three feet into the ground to find it, the Lin family has hidden the secret here for so many years, it is definitely not simple. Wang Mang analyzed: "This is the back garden now, but what was here back then, what it became later, and how the geographical map here has changed, we don't know at all." ”
"Then according to what you say, we can't find it at all?" Lu Yao said in frustration.
"Nope. Wang Mang sneered: "On the contrary, if the secret is here, then I can tell you that I have found something." ”
"How is it possible?" Lu Yao exclaimed, "The two of us have been together, why haven't I found anything." ”
If even you can find out, then this so-called secret may not be hidden for a long time, Wang Mang said in his heart.
After a moment of silence, Wang Mang said, "Do you remember that we went to the study before?"
"Yes. ”
"Remember what books I read?"
"I don't know. ”
"I'm looking at the history of this mansion. Wang Mang was a little speechless at Lu Yao's uprightness, and explained: "Although Xinyang City is not a big city, it has a lot of history here, and the city lord's mansion in Xinyang City is a thousand-year-old building, it is a living history, for such a building, three hundred years ago, the Great Qin Imperial Court issued a decree to require the history of all buildings and cities in the world that are more than a thousand years old, and what I just read in the study is the history of the Xinyang City Lord's Mansion." ”
"Ah, the imperial court has also issued such a decree, and the building still has a history?" Lu Yao looked confused.
"Of course, you don't even know this, do you?" Wang Mang blinked.
"I don't know. Lu Yao covered his face.
"Then you can usually study?" Wang Mang looked at Lu Yao.
"Read... Study. Lu Yao gritted his teeth and decided to slap his swollen face and become fat.
"Study, who are you fooling, you want to read a book and you don't even know this. Wang Mang looked at Lu Yao with a disgusted expression.
Lu Yao's face was directly red to his ears, and he shouted: "Why are you so annoying, the old lady just doesn't study, and the old lady just doesn't learn and can't learn, what's wrong?"
"Hey, it's fine. Wang Mang smiled, it wasn't until much later that Lu Yao didn't know that the edict Wang Mang said and even the history of the City Lord's Mansion in Xinyang City were among the few in the entire Great Qin Kingdom, she didn't know about it, it was normal, even many so-called scholars who read poetry and books didn't know about it.
"You should always tell where the thing is now, right?" Lu Yao looked at Wang Mang hatefully and rolled his eyes.
"The Lin family's collection of things is indeed hidden, if it is placed thousands of years ago, there is no prompt, it cannot be found at all, if it is placed five hundred years ago, it may be found by digging three feet into the ground, if it is placed three hundred years ago, it cannot be found by digging three feet, but now, it is indeed at your fingertips. Wang Mang looked at Lu Yao with some smugness.
"Why is this happening?" Lu Yao's curiosity was completely aroused.
"Where do you guess where the thing is?" Wang Mang smiled: "I can remind you that you are far away in the sky, close in front of you." ”
"Far away in the sky, close in front of you?" Lu Yao raised his eyebrows, pointed to the surrounding flowers and plants, and said to all the scenes: "Flowers, grass, courtyard walls, big trees, land, dry wells, sky, white clouds, ......"
"Forget it, don't guess. Wang Mang was completely speechless, and said directly: "If my guess is correct, the thing should be in the dry well." ”
"Dry well?" Lu Yao looked at Wang Mang suspiciously.
Wang Mang pointed to the only dry well in the courtyard and explained: "The dry well in front of you existed thousands of years ago, five hundred years ago, it was overhauled here, and there was no such dry well in the newly repaired garden. ”
"But that doesn't prove that things are in a dry well, right?" Lu Yao said.
"Why don't you open up at all?" Wang Mang was speechless.
