Chapter 733: One More Move

Gong Jue has been standing behind the man who was kneeling in front of the inscription to copy, and with an extremely reverent attitude, he wrote word by word from the merit tablet on the paper in front of him, and after writing one, he put it next to him and pressed it with a stone, and he saw that he should have copied more than ten sheets.

"Have you found that the paper of these inscriptions that he copied is the same size as the stone frame on the ground." Gong Jue pointed to the stone slab in front of the inscription and whispered.

Only then did we notice that there was a square place on the ground in front of the monument of merit that was surrounded by stone strips, and that there was about the size of a book unfolded, and the Manchu people put the paper in it, and it was exactly the same size.

"What does that mean?" Ye Jiuqing asked Turzhan.

"The purpose of transcribing the inscription is to think about it, and Taizu must not do what he wants when he asks for transcription, and must be strict with himself, so the paper on which the inscription is copied must be in this area, and there can be no deviation." Turzhan explained.

I asked Turzhan to talk to the Manchu people who were kneeling on the ground, and I took the trouble to take a copy of the inscription to see, and the Manchus didn't mind agreeing happily, I took the paper in my hand, and the inscription was all in Manchu, and we could only know the meaning if Turzhan translated it.

However, there was nothing unusual about the content, Tian Ji poked his head over and looked at it for a while: "This Qing Taizu is really enough to do, since he has come to think about it, how to think about it is someone else's own business, and even how big the paper to copy has to be stipulated, which is really wide enough." ”

"Chaoge, when we were children, we were also punished by Uncle Feng for copying books, I haven't heard of such a request." Ye Zhiqiu looked at me and said.

"This merit tablet is said to be a thought-provoking thing, but it is actually the place where Qing Taizu left clues, and others see it as an ordinary inscription, and only those who are selected will understand the secret." Bai looked at it for a long time and said with an old face. "The inscription has been here for hundreds of years, and the content on it is well known and not a secret, what method will Qing Taizu use to leave clues?"

"Gong Jue, you followed Gong Yu to learn the trick, how to hide clues should also be learned, what are your opinions on using text to deliver messages?" Ye Jiuqing asked.

"There are many ways to do this, and the common ones are to hide the head or hide the tail."

I hurriedly looked at the first row of the inscription, so that Turzhan was not coherent and incoherent after the translation, and the palace lord said that there was a gradual way, such as how many words appeared every few words, and the words that appeared together were the real message to be transmitted, but we repeatedly scrutinized the inscription, and did not find any words that could be coherent.

"I don't think it's supposed to be so complicated." Tian Ji said.

"It's not like you haven't read the Holy Records, I'm afraid you can't find a bigger treasure than the treasure of the dragon vein of the Great Qing Dynasty, there are so many gold, silver and jewels hidden in it, if it weren't complicated, wouldn't it have been discovered earlier." Xue Xinrou said.

"That's true, but the problem is that Qing Taizu left the secret of the treasure to Dolgon." Tian Ji replied nonchalantly.

"What does this have to do with who is left behind?" I asked.

"What does Dolgon do, although he is a Manchurian, he can be regarded as a generation of famous generals, Wengong and Wu led the army to conquer Mongolia at the age of seventeen, and the Manchu Shangwu did not attach much importance to the text, at least in the early Qing Dynasty, Dolgon is here like us, and does not know the clues in the inscription, a martial artist can quickly decipher the secrets, so I think the clues left in the inscription may not be complicated, at least not as cumbersome as we think."

"Don't say it, what Tian Qi said is quite reasonable." Ye Jiuqing nodded.

"It's not easy, we've been looking at it for so long, and we don't have any eyebrows at all." Ye Zhiqiu was at a loss.

"It was Duoduo who accompanied Dorgon here, these two are military generals, they can both think of the secrets, we can't be worse than them, could it be that we haven't found the doorway?" The palace lord was also worried.

Bai Jin had been silent, and I saw him staring at the Manchu who was still kneeling on the ground copying the inscription for a long time, and took the copied paper from my hand: "Since Qing Taizu wants to leave a clue, it means that not only the inscription here, but everything else is deliberately and carefully designed. ”

"What do you think of?" Ye Jiuqing asked.

"Why leave a stone trough in the ground that is the size of a piece of paper?" Bai Jin said.

I looked back at the piece of paper, "Could it be that the size of the paper is the key to cracking the clues here?" ”

"Dolgon, like us, came here without any other hints, and it's no coincidence that he was able to unlock the secrets of this place, indicating that he understands something better than we do." Bai Jin nodded.

"When Dolgon came here, he should have copied the inscription, the paper is the same size, and the content of the inscription has not changed for hundreds of years, so what method did Dolgon use to solve the mystery?" Xue Xinrou pondered and said.

I walked back and forth a few steps without saying a word, and re-examined the whole thing in my heart, everything we have experienced is actually repeating the footsteps of Dorgon, who also went to Shengjing first, and then found the hexagram left by Qing Taizu in the palace, so as to find the gold box in the well.

And from the clues left in the gold box, we found here step by step, and what Dolgon had back then is now all in our hands.

"Everything in the gold box is useful, the tin rod is a hint of Sauron's pole, and the silk cloth guides the people to the eternal tomb eventually." I rubbed my forehead and said. "Is it possible that there is something else in the gold box, but it was taken by Dolgon, and this thing is the key to deciphering the text here."

"I don't think that's possible." Ye Jiuqing shook his head and said. "Dolgon took the gold box from the well a long time ago, and successfully found the clues left by Qing Taizu, but why was the gold box still left in the Shengjing Imperial Palace?"

"It is estimated that this is also the request of Qing Taizu, to continue this secret, and Dolgon will leave it to the next person to inherit this treasure." Bai Jin said.

"However, there is also a problem that Dolgon has not finally discovered the whereabouts of the dragon vein treasure, otherwise he would not have put the gold box back, and he hopes that the next person to inherit this secret will continue to search for it." Ye Jiuqing nodded and said.

"I know why the treasure of the Great Qing Dragon Vein has not been discovered until now." Ye Zhiqiu suddenly realized and said. "Dorgon brought Dodor here, indicating that he told Dodor the secret, the two are brothers and have a deep relationship, Dorgon chose Dorgon to inherit the secret of the Dragon Vein treasure."

"Why didn't Dorgon tell his descendants?" Tian Ji asked.

"Because Prince Rui has no heirs, his brother Dolgon's son Dolbo succeeded to Dolgon, attacked Prince Rui, Dolgon was knighted by the king, after the temple was removed, Dolbo returned to Dorgon, and later Qianlong rehabilitated Dolgon, restored the title of Prince Dolgon, and Dolbo was still the successor of Dolgon, when Dolbo had been dead for many years." Turzhan said from the side.

Ye Zhiqiu nodded and continued, it seems that it is the will of heaven to make the dragon vein treasure an eternal secret, in the seventh year of Shunzhi, Dolgon went out to hunt outside Gubeikou, fell from a horse while hunting, and was seriously injured in Karacheng, outside Gubeikou, Chinese New Year's Eve nine years old.

And Duoduo, who had a brilliant career in his life, died of smallpox in the sixth year of Shunzhi, only thirty-six years old, Duoduo and Dolgon brothers had the best relationship, Dolgon was in Shanxi to fight Jiang Jiu, hearing the news of Duoduo's death and vomiting blood, the brotherhood was deeply visible.

"These two people died a year apart, Dolgon probably didn't expect that he would die suddenly, after Duoduo's death, he didn't think about who would inherit the secret of the dragon vein, and he also died, so far no one knows the secret of the dragon vein treasure of the Qing Dynasty." Ye Zhiqiu said.

"Speaking of which, Dolgon doesn't know any more clues than we do, and he decoded the inscription entirely with the contents of the gold box." After listening to this, the palace lord said calmly. "But the question is, everything in the gold box has already been used, and there is nothing to connect with this inscription."

"When it comes to the contents of the gold box, there is one thing I've always wondered about." Turzhan suddenly hesitated beside him and said.

"What do you wonder?" Xue Xinrou asked.

"If Qing Taizu wants to leave a clue about the treasure of the dragon vein, he will inevitably scrutinize and verify every step of the way, so as to ensure that there will be no omissions and ...... at the same time," Turzhan paused for a moment. And the superfluous appears. ”

"Superfluous?" I frowned. "You think there's a lot to spare?"

"It's redundant to have one thing."

"What's that?" Ye Jiuqing asked.

"It's the tin stick in the gold box."

"It's not redundant, we can't guess Sauron's pole without a tin stick." The palace lord looked surprised.

"Grandpa Tai used a pattern on the silk cloth to hint at Hetuara and other clues, and the flying dragon soaring into the sky on the Great Yamen of the Khan Palace itself alludes to the Sauron pole, since this is the case, why put a tin stick in the gold box alone?" Turzhan said calmly as he looked at us. "I never understood the meaning of the existence of the tin stick, and if it was a hint at Sauron's pole, wouldn't it be a superfluous move."

"With such an important secret, how could there be something so much left behind......" Bai Jin's expression was solemn, look at what we said. There is only one possibility, and that is that we may not have figured out what the tin stick is really for. ”

Tian Ji took out the tin stick again, looked at it over and over for a long time, scratched his head and said, "We have studied this thing for a long time before, there is nothing special about it, if it is not used to hint at the Sauron pole, then what use can it be?" ”

"Wait!" Gong Jue suddenly walked to the merit monument with a shocked face, and then beckoned us to pass, she pointed to a place in the merit monument. "Look here."

We went up and saw that it was the ornament on the edge of the merit tablet, and in the place of the palace lord's finger was the pattern of the vertical stripe, and everyone was immediately surprised, the vertical stripe was exactly the same as the tin stick in the hand of the field chicken, regardless of size or appearance.

Xue Xinrou happily lowered her voice and said: "That is to say, the tin stick left in the gold box is related to the clues of this inscription, and the key to deciphering the inscription is this tin stick!" ”
