Chapter 49: The Old Turtle Obsession

Chu Ying and I watched the big turtle walk back little by little, looked at each other, and our eyes were full of surprise: What is this guy going to do?!

When the big turtle came to us, he turned around and rushed the turtle shell on his back towards us, and then his front feet were slightly propped up, and his body was about thirty degrees, just by the dim street lamp light by the river, Chu Ying and I saw a few words on the turtle shell!

"Got a word?!" Chu Ying couldn't help but exclaim, hurriedly covered her mouth and looked at me, and saw that after the turtle shell was stained with mud, coupled with the illumination of the light, a few words were revealed on it: Wang Fu Zhang Qin, Xuande stayed for three years.

The third year of Xuande, that is, 1428, happened to be the year when Zhu Rong, the king of Qi, died.

"Three years of Xuande? What year? "Chu Ying's history is not good, raise her eyes and look at me.

I pretended to scratch my head profoundly, and pinched my fingers and calculated: "Xuande for three years, you calculate, Xuande, it is Ming Xuanzong, that is, Zhu Zhanji, he ascended the throne in 1425, and changed his name that year......"

"Simple!"

"Year 1428!" I instinctively took a step back: "It's the year when Zhu Rong, the king of Qi, died!" ”

"You're so fast!" Chu Ying looked at me with a playful face.

I shrugged my shoulders, since I met Liang Ruoyi, because this person often beats and scolds me without warning, so when facing girls, I have formed this habit.

"But how can there be these words on this big turtle? Could it be that it was raised by this person named Zhang Qin? If it had been 1428, it would have been almost 600 years old by now, and it would have been a long life! Chu Ying said with a look of surprise.

I ignored her, but watched as the turtle slowly returned to its original state, and the handwriting disappeared, and then, the turtle slowly turned around and looked at me steadily, only to see that my heart was hairy.

"Brother, does it have a crush on you?!" Chu Ying suddenly looked suddenly enlightened, and covered her mouth and pretended to be surprised.

"It's a man!" I didn't have a good chance to say to her, then stretched out my hand and pointed to the Qi Wangfu on the side, and nodded to the big turtle.

Sure enough, just as I thought, the big turtle nodded very spiritually and motioned for me to take it to the mansion.

I straightened up and glanced at the night sky in the dark winter and the slowly falling snowflakes: "Yingying, can you go in this mansion?" ”

"Of course not!" Chu Ying shook her head: "Although this place has been abandoned for I don't know how many years, and it should have been dilapidated, but after all, it is still a municipal-level cultural relics protection unit, and it is all locked!" ”

I answered, thought about it, walked to the bank of the river, looked inside, and saw that at the place where the river led to the palace of the king of Qi, it was blocked by an iron fence, which should be to prevent some aquatic plants or garbage from entering, but the fence stopped, and the gap was only the width of a fist, and the big turtle naturally couldn't get through.

It is estimated that this "Wangfu Zhang Qin" is the owner of the big turtle, and it should have been raised for many years, and then Zhang Qin died in the palace, and the big turtle survived by this small river, and every time he missed his master, he returned to the palace along the river to pay respects, but he couldn't go back because of the fence.

Last night, the old man caught the big turtle, probably because the big turtle was in a hurry to cross the river into the palace, and was accidentally stuck by the hook.

"Let's go, let's go in and have a look!" I bowed and put the big turtle back into the big basin, and pulled Chu Ying around the Qi Palace.

Not to mention, there is a small hole in the wall of the backyard, the hole is full of weeds, and there are two iron chains, but they have not been repaired for a long time, and the iron chain is broken, leaving a little gap, just enough for us who are not fat to drill through.

"Hey, I'll go over first, and then you hand me the big turtle!" I took a closer look at it with the flashlight of my mobile phone and said to Chu Ying.

Chu Ying nodded and took the big turtle.

Because the entrance of the cave was about a meter above the ground, I carefully climbed over with my arms propped up, reached out to take the big turtle, and then took Chu Ying over.

The palace of the king of Qi in the snow looks particularly bleak. There are ruins everywhere, a barren area, and some places have been covered in snow, which makes it look even more desolate.

I took a look at it by the light of the mobile phone, and found that this mansion should indeed have been abandoned for hundreds of years, some rooms have obviously been demolished, and the courtyard wall was rebuilt later.

Since the big turtle came in, he walked slowly towards the side room on the left, and Chu Ying and I followed behind.

"Who is Zhang Qin?" Chu Ying asked me.

I shook my head: "I don't know, it seems that it is estimated that it is a person under the King of Qi, after the King of Qi left the fiefdom, he looked at this Qi Mansion for the King of Qi, and it is estimated that this Qi Palace" is really not the primary residence of Zhu Rong, the King of Qi. ”

As we spoke, the turtle opened the half-hidden door of the side room and walked in.

Looking into the house, Chu Ying and I were stunned: on the ground of the side room, there was a small grave, which looked very old, and the grave was covered with grass.

Judging from the construction of the tomb, I guess that the big turtle made the soil and stones by himself, and it should be after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The turtle walked to the grave and lay down for a while, then walked to the back of the grave, stretched out his front paws and pulled it, and soon turned over a piece of something and pushed it in front of me.

Seeing the appearance of this thing, I was stunned for a moment: this thing is nothing else, it is actually one of the small pieces of the dragon carved jade plate!

"What is this?"

Chu Ying said as she reached out to take it, and I subconsciously grabbed it first: "Dragon carved jade card!" ”

"What's that?" Chu Ying looked at me suspiciously, she had never seen me so nervous in front of her.

"Oh......" I came back to my senses: "It's a very rare piece of black jade, it's a treasure, I didn't expect to meet it here." However, I found it useful, so ......"

"Cut!" Chu Ying glanced at me: "You look down on me too much!" As long as you Gu Rui is useful, even if it is something I like, I will not hesitate to give it to you, even if it is ...... me."

This girl, almost overdone again, blushed, turned to the side.

I shrugged my shoulders and stuffed the dragon carved jade plate into my arms: this time, I have a big one in my hand and three small ones, Chai Lao Wu has a big one there, and there is still the last small dragon carved jade card left, and the whole dragon carved jade card can be collected, and when the time comes, I will be able to open the iron box left by my grandfather Gu Xiansheng to Qingyue Daoist!

It's just that a big mystery has emerged in my heart, the place where this dragon carved jade plate appears, it looks very outrageous, but I always feel that there is an inextricable connection!

I was frowning as I thought about it, when the big turtle lay at my feet and smacked me with its body.

I looked down and saw it stretch its neck and shake it outward, then turned and went back to the back of the grave, lying still on its stomach.

This is, to let us go, leave it alone?! I couldn't help but feel a little pantothenic acid in my heart, and I went around to the back of the grave and looked at the big turtle lying on the ground with its eyes slightly open. At this moment, I understood everything: the old turtle had already felt that his death was coming, so he was in a hurry to return to his master, and if he wanted to die, he would also die with his master. Unfortunately, because of the existence of the iron fence, it couldn't go back to its owner, and it was caught by the old man, but it was the obsession in my heart to return to its owner that made it survive until now.

At this time, it has returned to its owner, and that obsession has been realized, and it can finally leave with peace of mind after surviving for more than 600 years or more......

"This, this is too ......" Chu Ying didn't know when she came to me, watching the old turtle slowly close her eyes, she had always been a female man, and she actually shed two lines of tears.

I think of the old turtle in Huimin County, which is also paying tribute to its master. Turtles are really psychic things.

Ten minutes later, we built a small grave for the dead turtle, right next to its owner. Anyway, one is a senior who left hundreds of years ago, and the other is an old turtle who has lived for hundreds of years with extreme spirituality, Chu Ying pulled me to bow three times before leaving.
