Chapter Ninety-Four: Map of the Ancient Tomb
I smoked three cigarettes in a row, then took out the jade piece from the box, looked at it carefully, sighed and said, "This jade piece is engraved with words, but unfortunately, it knows me, I don't know it." After speaking, he handed the jade piece to the seventh master.
The seventh master smoked a cigarette, took the jade piece, looked at it, and immediately showed a surprised expression, and said, "This is... This is the clue of the unicorn eye! ”
When I heard the Seventh Master say this, I immediately became energetic, and hurriedly asked, "What is written on it?" ”
The seventh master snuffed out the cigarette, squinted his eyes and looked at it for a long time, then carefully put the jade piece back into the black box, and said, "The jade piece records that during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the unicorn eye fell into the hands of the king of Western Wei in the Northern Dynasties, and was buried somewhere in Yunnan after his death. ”
After I listened, I was first disappointed, and then I thought about it, since there are new clues, it is much better than nothing, although with the ability to describe the text at that time, it is not possible to accurately describe the specific location, but the tomb of the King of the Western Wei Dynasty in Yunnan will always be wrong, the unicorn eye is the key to whether the curse on me and the seventh master can be solved, and now I know the clue of the unicorn eye, it is a lie to say that I am not moved, so I asked the seventh master, "What?" Let's go to explore? ”
The seventh master coughed violently, didn't speak, put his hands behind his back, paced in the room, turned back and forth for more than a dozen times, turned his head and said to me, "This ancient tomb in Yunnan, but the big taboo in our industry, many masters are folded in Yunnan, where there are many ethnic minorities, plus the whole primeval forest, many places not to mention people, even wild beasts dare not break in casually, if we really go, I'm afraid it will be much more dangerous than last time in the Xiliang tomb." ”
As soon as I heard the seventh master's tone, I seemed to be a little cringe, and I wanted to open my mouth to cheer him up, after all, this unicorn eye is related to the curse on both of us, but where there is a glimmer of hope, I still hope to find the unicorn eye, so I stood up, and just about to speak, I saw the seventh master wave his hand and said to me, "This time is different, we only know the approximate location of this tomb, not to mention whether we can find the entrance to the tomb, just go deep into the primeval forest of Yunnan, then the difficulty is not small, let me think about it, let me think about it......" After speaking, He walked towards the inner hall with a very heavy expression, and I had no chance to persuade him again.
At this time, Huzi came in from outside the door, saw the black box on the table, and hurriedly walked over, "What's the matter?" Opened? ”
"Hmm," I nodded feebly.
Huzi hurriedly asked, "What about the unicorn eyes?" ”
I pointed to the jade piece on the table and said, "Where there is a unicorn eye, there is only a jade piece." ”
Huzi picked up the jade piece, looked at it many times, and said, "Damn, except for words, even paintings, I can't understand anything." ”
When I heard Huzi say this, I suddenly came to my senses, hurriedly grabbed the jade piece, and asked, "Painting?" What paintings? "I remember that I only saw some ancient texts just now, and I really didn't think that there were paintings on this jade tablet.
Huzi sat on the chair, lifted the copper kettle to the spout and drank it, and after drinking it for a while, the cow said to me, "Isn't the reverse side of this jade piece a fucking painting?" ”
I turned the jade piece upside down and looked at it carefully, but there was no painting that Huzi said, so I took two steps forward, turned against the light, and looked at the jade piece, and sure enough, a map-like picture appeared on the back of the jade piece.
I was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Huzi, go and bring the ink and brush." ”
After hearing this, Huzi was stunned for a moment and asked, "What?" Do you also want to learn from that fat man and write calligraphy? No, I said Lao Bai, let's do something good? ”
"What nonsense, hurry up and bring it to me."
Huzi raised his buttocks reluctantly, took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the back hall, and then said, "I don't know you yet?" Draw a chicken and eat rice I believe, if you want to say that you can write calligraphy, I can fucking engage in Chang'e! ”
I don't talk to him, I put the ink on the back of the jade piece, and use the paper to extend the pattern, and after a closer look, I am more determined to go to Yunnan to take a trip, and the pattern is clearly a map!
Huzi settled down, and also saw the clue, and hurriedly asked, "Hey, I said Lao Bai, where the hell is this?" How does it look like a map? ”
I nodded and said, "You feel like a map, too?" ”
Huzi stepped forward again and took a closer look, and said, "Like, I think it's just a map, but I don't know where it is, and I don't have a place name or anything like that, but there's a black bump engraved under it, I don't know what it means." ”
I was also attracted by the black bumps on the paper, and wondered in my heart, why did this good map have such a big black bump in the lower right corner? Could it be a mistake in carving? Just like when we were children, we would make a black bump when we made a mistake, could it be that people in ancient times were like this?
I picked up the jade piece again, carefully studied it, after the back of the jade piece was coated with ink in the north, the outline of the pattern was more clear, I wiped the lower right corner of the jade piece with my thumb, and after erasing some of the ink on it, I suddenly found that this black lump turned out to be a word, but there were too many strokes, and it became a black lump when it was extended.
With the map and jade tablets in my hand, I went directly to the inner hall to find the seventh master.
At this time, the seventh master was wiping his pocket pistol that never left his body, and when he saw me come in, he put the pistol away casually, because he moved too fast, I didn't see how he put the gun away, but my purpose was not his gun, so he shook the jade piece in his hand and the map that was stretched down, and said, "Seventh master, the location of this ancient tomb, we know." ”
When the seventh master heard this, he was also interested, and hurriedly took the map and jade piece in my hand, and after looking at it for a while, he said, "The location depicted on this map is also an approximation, but it is already a very accurate map in ancient times, with him, we can only hope to go to Yunnan!" ”
Listening to the seventh master's tone, it seemed that he had already figured it out, so I hurriedly asked, "Seventh master, when are we leaving?" ”
The seventh master smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, when the equipment arrives, we'll set off." As he spoke, the Seventh Master also looked at the lower right corner of the map carefully, just like me just now, and asked, "Why is there a black pimple?" After that, he turned over the jade piece directly, looked at the lower right corner, and then the expression on his face changed suddenly, and said, "It turned out to be him!" This clan is not easy to mess with, this is an ancient tribe with hundreds of myths and legends, it seems that this time to go to Yunnan, it is more dangerous than I imagined! ”
I was puzzled and asked, "What is the word in the lower right corner?" What tribe? ”
The Seventh Master looked at me, then tightened the jade piece into his arms and said, "Plan! ”
"What?"
The Seventh Master sighed and said, "A surname." ”
