Chapter 62: The Cripple

Sending Xue Xinrou away from the silent silence of the three of us, the already bizarre and mysterious Moon Palace Nine Dragon Boat made us feel more and more confused, and even far beyond the scope of our imagination.

"What exactly is the Moon Palace Nine Dragon Boat?" Ye Zhiqiu sat down beside me and asked seriously.

I know that I can't hide it from her, and tell her everything, but I didn't say anything about Wen Ru blowing up the underground altar of Aoki River, I'm worried that she knows too much, with her jealous and hateful nature, I have to go to Wen Ru to confront her, so far we haven't figured out the bottom of Wen Ru, a ruthless person, killing people is not difficult for Wen Ru.

Of course, I didn't tell her about the gold master, the origin and identity of the gold master are too mysterious, I am worried that Ye Zhiqiu will also be involved, if something happens to her, I don't know how to explain it to Ye Jiuqing.

Ye Zhiqiu looked at me with her mouth open, I can understand her expression, after all, it does take some time to calm down to accept so many bizarre things in a short period of time.

"Really...... There really is one that is pulled by nine two-winged wyverns...... Boat?! Ye Zhiqiu was still not sure.

"Kunlun Jinque is actually a dock, although we haven't seen the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, but we can indeed be sure that there was once a ship moored there, as for whether it was pulled by the flying dragon, there is no way to determine for the time being." I leaned back in my chair and nodded. "But a ship moored at the top of a hill, I really can't think of how it got out."

"The tomb of the Marquis in the north, the mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor in Kunlun......" Ye Zhiqiu was a little incoherent with excitement. Such a big discovery, why do you keep hiding it from me, why don't you take me with you! ”

"Take you...... I'm going to take you to death. "Gong Jue has always been on the wrong path with Ye Zhiqiu, arrogantly said." It's a blessing to be here right now, and I'll have you with me...... I guess no one wants to come back alive. ”

"That's the truth, you didn't see the monsters we encountered, I'll tell you......"

"Cross the river and tear down the bridge, right, without me translating the golden text for you, can you find the tomb of Suihou in the north? Without me helping you bring out the bronze dragon horse, you can go to Kunlun Jinque. Ye Zhiqiu pursed his lips and argued with reason. You can go, take me with you and send me to death, what kind of logic is this. ”

Since I was a child, Ye Jiuqing in Dalian has never said that he has won Ye Zhiqiu, let alone me, looking at the posture Ye Zhiqiu is more serious, I got up and planned to leave this place of right and wrong, but Ye Zhiqiu pulled him back to the chair, glared at me and said seriously: "Gu Chaoge, I don't see that you are still such a person, you want to enter the ruins of Aoki River, I don't even want my own future, let you in, I will guard and steal to fulfill you, I will dig out my heart and lungs for you, you will turn your face and don't recognize people." ”

"......" I rubbed my forehead and smiled wordlessly, facing Ye Zhiqiu's aggressive appearance, I didn't have a chance to interject at all.

"Okay, since you are so capable, it doesn't seem like you need me anymore, I was going to tell you some things today, such as the origin of the Aoki River ruins and the people who built them, as well as ......" Ye Zhiqiu took out the sebum I asked her to test. What age is this thing, it seems that you don't need it anymore. ”

"No." Gong Jue disagreed.

"Don't make a mess." I glanced at Gong Jue and grabbed Ye Zhiqiu, who was about to leave. "It's not that I'm worried that you're in danger, not to mention that I didn't plan to tell you, I said a long time ago, when you get married in the future, I will give you these places as a dowry, and promise to make you famous in history."

"The process is more important than the result, who wants you to give me the ancient tomb that has been excavated, and participating in the discovery and excavation is the most rewarding." Ye Zhiqiu did not relent.

"So what do you want?" Tian Ji asked helplessly.

"From now on, all discoveries related to the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, you must bring me." The way Ye Zhiqiu laughed reminded me of Ye Jiuqing's shrewdness.

"The shopkeeper told me not to tell you, not because he wanted to hide it from you, but because he was afraid that you would be in danger, and you also knew that he valued you a lot, in case something happened to you, how could I explain it to him." I scratched my head in embarrassment.

"What do I need you to explain about my business, and can he control me?"

What Ye Zhiqiu said was not an exaggeration, except for the room where Ye Jiuqing couldn't enter, Ye Jiuqing didn't follow her.

"Cheng, I promise you, but you must also promise me, you can't let anyone know about the Nine Dragons Boat in the Moon Palace, especially your hunchbacked teacher." I took a deep breath and looked at Ye Zhiqiu seriously. "This is not a trivial matter, if there is a slight mistake, I really want to put my life into it, I promised the shopkeeper to protect you at all times."

Ye Zhiqiu immediately smiled and nodded.

"You want her to do everything." The palace lord was indignant beside him. "Wasn't you very assertive when you buried me in the tomb, you haven't seen a woman."

"Gong Jue, I have never provoked you, if there is anything wrong, you can say it directly, and it is good to target me everywhere." Ye Zhiqiu asked with an aggrieved face.

"You stop a little, it's not messy enough." Gong Jue has always been very sensible, but as long as he meets Ye Zhiqiu, he will be on the bar, and I turned my head to look at Ye Zhiqiu. "Tell me about the underground altar of the Aoki River."

Ye Zhiqiu sat down again and said seriously, the scale of the underground ruins of the Aoki River is not small, and it is inferred from the cultural relics that were cleaned up before that the construction date was after Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, and it is not clear why it was built.

Ye Zhiqiu checked the literature, and recorded that Qin Shi Huang did not build a large number of buildings in the Aoki River, Ye Zhiqiu consulted a lot of information, and finally found some written records, the Qin army general Kong Xin led the army to supervise the construction of roads in the Aoki River by the order of Qin Shi Huang.

"The Aoki River is not a border town, and its geographical location is not important, so what kind of road should be built in the Aoki River?" I frowned, puzzled.

"During this time, I investigated in the Aoki River, and there are no traces of the Qin Road, but it is recorded that there were as many as 10,000 people who built the road at that time, so I speculate that the Ming plank road was secretly Chencang, and the underground altar of the Aoki River was built under the cover of road construction."

"The distance from Xianyang to Qingmu River is far away, and Qin Shi Huang sent so many people to repair underground altars, and he also had to hide people's eyes and ears." Tian Ji also hesitated. "The most important thing in the altar should be the bronze dragon horse that opened the Kunlun Golden Gate mechanism, just go to great lengths for a bronze dragon horse...... That doesn't make sense. ”

"Don't stop talking." I saw Gong Jue closing his eyes next to me, and I guess I haven't been angry yet. "The three stinkers have beaten Zhuge Liang, and you can also tell me what you think."

"There is also a piece of paper in the bronze dragon horse that we have not untied until now, and there is a blank groove in the jade box, which used to contain something, but when we found it, it was gone." Gong Jue opened his eyes and looked at Ye Zhiqiu and said to me. "The bronze dragon horse is the key to open the Kunlun Golden Gate, but it appeared in the altar of Qin Shi Huang, how this thing got into the hands of Qin Shi Huang is unknown, boldly speculate, maybe Qin Shi Huang also knew the existence of Kunlun Golden Gate."

I nodded, my thoughts slowly became clearer, the bronze dragon horse in the jade box was still there, but another thing was missing, Qin Shi Huang hid this jade box in the Aoki River, it can be seen that he does not want to be known in secret, and it can be seen that the things in this jade box are not trivial, and the missing thing is probably more important.

As for the broken note in the bronze dragon horse, the gold lord said that this is only one part of it, and the other part can be deciphered in order to decipher the contents, which shows that the gold lord knows the origin of the note, but he does not intend to tell us.

But anyway, the things in the Aoki River altar must be related to the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, and the content of that note is now remembered by me, just like a talisman, if I don't say the content of the paper for a day, the gold lord will not dare to do anything to us.

"There's one more thing that you don't expect." Ye Zhiqiu continued. "Kong Xin led the Qin army to supervise the construction of the people, but it is recorded in the literature that Qin Shi Huang seems to have attached great importance to this place, and he also sent Lu Sheng to personally supervise it."

"Who is Lu Sheng?" We asked.

Ye Zhiqiu told us that Lu Sheng was a famous scholar of the Qin Dynasty, and it was recorded in the wild history that Qin Shi Huang built the Great Wall and burned books to pit Confucianism, and the initiator of these two events was this person named Lu Sheng, but what really made Lu Sheng famous was that he wrote to Qin Shi Huang, saying that there were three sacred mountains in the sea, Qin Shi Huang believed it and sent him to lead three thousand boys and girls to take a boat into the sea to seek immortal mountains, which is what later generations said, the beginning and end of Qin Shi Huang's quest for immortals in the East China Sea.

"Why should the underground altar of the Aoki River be overseen by a monk?" I was confused.

"Coincidentally, Lu Sheng later fled from Qin Shi Huang's side and did not know his whereabouts, and the time coincided with the construction of the Aoki River, so I deduce that Lu Sheng disappeared and hid after supervising the construction of the underground altar of the Aoki River."

"This is understandable, since Qin Shi Huang took great pains to hide people's eyes, the people who participated in the construction naturally will not leave a living ......," Tian Ji said halfway down. Do you think it was Lu Sheng who took away the contents of the jade box? ”

I glanced at the palace lord, it is indeed possible, he is the overseer, of course he knows all the secrets in the altar, but if this is the case, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find back what was taken away by the people of 2,000 years ago.

"That's all I know about the Aoki River." Ye Zhiqiu pointed to the sebum on the table and said. "I have asked someone to test this thing, the age is extremely old, about 4,000 years ago, and it should be the Xia Dynasty period according to the chronology."

"Xia Dynasty!" I thought about it for a long time, that is, the dead people in the five ice coffins in the Kunlun Golden Gate crawled out during the Xia Dynasty.

"Xia Yu! Kunlun Jinque has a river Tuluo book, Dayu has been to Kunlun Mountain, and saw Luo Shu on the back of the turtle, and comprehended the essence of the water. The palace lord suddenly stood up from his chair. On the right time, Dayu is likely to be the first person to arrive at Kunlun Jinque, but ...... But why did the dead people in the ice palace crawl out? ”

"The rest is up to you." Ye Zhiqiu packed up his things and wanted to rush back.

I repeatedly told her not to tell anyone about the Nine Dragons Boat in the Moon Palace no matter what: "Your father is just a girl of yours, if something happens to you, I really don't know what will become of him, you don't think about yourself, but also for him, it's not easy to be a shopkeeper all these years." ”

"Got it, why are you so mother-in-law now." Although Ye Zhiqiu was unforgiving, she also knew the severity of her appearance, she nodded and asked me to put it down, walked to the door Ye Zhiqiu turned around again, and took out something from her body and asked me to hand it to Ye Jiuqing.

I opened it and it was a pair of shoes.

"Which of your tendons is wrong, you actually know how to send things to the shopkeeper." I asked with a smile.

"You know that you will say that if I can't find you, I will ask him, my dad disappeared after learning that you had been to Aoki River, and the whole person was in a hurry, who didn't know that he cared about you." Ye Zhiqiu glanced at me with disdain. "The day after tomorrow, my father's birthday, I prepared these shoes for him, as a birthday gift, I raised you for ten years, look at your appearance and know that you have forgotten."

I just remembered that the day after tomorrow was Ye Jiuqing's birthday, but looking at the shoes in my hand, I couldn't help but ridicule Ye Zhiqiu for being stingy.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on the shoes in his hand, and he found that the cushion in the two pairs of shoes was different: "Your daughter is sloppy enough, and I don't know if I take the wrong shoes, how do you tell him to wear such shoes?" ”

Ye Zhiqiu shook his head and sighed heavily, and said when he closed the door.

"My dad really raised you for ten years for nothing, he is lame, don't you know?"
