18. Painting that kills people

Zhang Dehuai, the head of the treasure house, naturally did not dare to stop the emperor, and after obeying the order to get up from the ground, he opened the door of the treasure house.

Zhang Xuan entered the treasure house, and was not blinded by the golden treasures, in ancient times, it was not a fantasy world, and the treasure house was not a dragon's treasure house, so naturally there were no glittering gold coins.

Even if there is a ton of gold bars in the treasure house, the gold bars themselves do not shine, let alone blind Zhang Xuan's eyes.

In fact, before the lights were turned on, the treasure trove was dark. Although the moonlight was shining in from outside, most people couldn't see what was inside the vault.

Zhang Xuan ordered someone to light the candles, and hundreds of red candles shone brightly, illuminating the entire treasure house.

He looked up and found that the contents of the treasure trove were not as mysterious as he had imagined.

There was neither a sword that glittered with cold light, nor armor that was as hard as iron. There is no biting cold, and there is no pearlescent treasure.

However, Zhang Xuan had to admit that there was still something good in the treasury of the Sui Dynasty.

In addition to the ancient paintings hanging on the walls, there were also boxes full of gold and silver jewelry, and in addition, Zhang Xuan also saw a lot of utensils made of gold and silver.

And, of course, a couple of nice night pearls.

These things can be said to be priceless treasures, not to mention ancient times, even if they are placed in modern times, they can be sold for a large price.

But the problem is, these are not what Zhang Xuan wants.

Since the lion man said that there were some good things in the Sui Dynasty, it was definitely not gold, silver and jewelry, and of course, it could not be any antique calligraphy and painting, although this kind of thing was valuable in the eyes of collectors, but in the eyes of the lion man, it was worthless.

Zhang Xuan didn't look at these things, and began to pay attention to some more peculiar things.

However, along the way, Zhang Xuan really didn't see anything good.

All of them were treasures of gold and silver.

Even if the night pearl is more precious, Zhang Xuan doesn't put it in his eyes.

Zhang Xuan hesitated for a moment, called Zhang Dehuai, the head of the treasure house, over, and asked, "Is there anything strange in the treasure house?"

Zhang Dehuai asked cautiously, "I don't know what the strange thing Your Majesty is talking about?"

"It's not a treasure of gold or silver, but it's very strange. Well, it's a rare treasure or something. ”

"Treasures?"

Zhang Dehuai smiled in his heart, nodded and said: "What Your Majesty said reminded the little one of a few treasures, and asked Your Majesty to go with the little one." ”

"Lead the way. Zhang Xuan was overjoyed and hurriedly said.

Zhang Dehuai took Zhang Xuan to the end of the treasure house, knocked on the wall a few times, and then pressed a brick, and the wall suddenly opened a thin crack, which was pushed open by Zhang Dehuai.

Zhang Xuan couldn't help but be surprised, it turned out that there was such a mechanism in the treasure house.

Pushing open the wall door, Zhang Xuan followed Zhang Dehuai and entered a small treasure house, and found that the entire treasure house was very small, only about a dozen square meters.

The treasure trove has several shelves with dozens of distinct curiosities.

For example, there is a cup among them, the cup is cyan, there are lines like messy silk, the wall of the cup is as thin as paper, and there are wisps of gold on the foot of the cup, and the name is "self-warming cup".

According to Zhang Dehuai, as long as the wine is poured into the cup, the wine can warm itself, and there is heat coming out, and if the time is a little longer, the wine surface will boil like boiling water.

Without a doubt, this is a treasure.

But it wasn't what Zhang Xuan wanted, Zhang Xuan took a look at the game store and found that this cup was sold in the game store and was worth thirty game coins.

Zhang Dehuai saw that the emperor was not very satisfied, and introduced another treasure.

Fighting the cold rhino, this treasure is as yellow as gold. Put it in the temple with a gold plate, and there is warmth to hit people, and it can keep out the cold. It was the year when the Jiaozhi State paid tribute to Emperor Wen of Sui.

Zhang Xuan shook his head, the game store is worth twenty game coins, which is worse than a self-warming cup.

Zhang Dehuai saw that the emperor was still not satisfied, so he opened a box, and suddenly a light shot out, illuminating the entire small treasure house, and the lights were bright, like day.

Zhang Xuan took a closer look and found that the shape of this thing was a bit like a rhinoceros through the sky, a kind of rhinoceros horn that runs up and down.

Zhang Dehuai introduced: "Your Majesty, this is a luminous rhinoceros, which can shine at night, and can shine a hundred steps away. At night, when the light is like day, there is no need to light a candle or a fire. ”

Zhang Xuan took a look, this thing is more expensive, worth fifty game coins.

"Anything else?"

"And this jade plate. Zhang Dehuai carefully picked up a plate made of jadeite, which was indeed very beautiful, and the materials were exquisite, but it was still far from the treasure in Zhang Xuan's mind.

Zhang Dehuai introduced several things with a face, but Zhang Xuan was not very satisfied.

The things in this are really good, and in modern times, they can definitely be said to be national treasures, and they are not even inferior to things like gold-threaded jade clothes.

But the problem is, it's nothing in the game store. The maximum value is only 50 in-game coins.

Could it be that the good thing that the lion man said does not mean that there are no treasures?

Zhang Xuan was puzzled and silent.

Zhang Dehuai saw that the emperor was silent, and he didn't dare to say anything, he kept his head down and stood aside cautiously, for fear that Zhang Xuan would lose his temper.

Zhang Xuan thought for a moment, came back to his senses and asked, "There are only these treasures in the treasure house, are there nothing else?" ”

Zhang Dehuai was silent for a moment and said, "No." ”

"Is there really not, Zhang Dehuai. Zhang Xuan looked at him, as if he was hiding something, "You must know that this is a crime of bullying the king." ”

Zhang Dehuai was helpless, so he whispered: "Your Majesty, there is indeed an even more strange treasure in the treasure house, but it was an ominous thing at that time. ”

"Hoodoo?" Zhang Xuan couldn't help but ask, "Why is it unknown." ”

"The slave didn't dare to talk nonsense. ”

"Grant you innocence, said. ”

"It's a painting, a painting that can kill people. Zhang Dehuai didn't want to say it, but under Zhang Xuan's oppression, he could only speak in the end.

"A painting that kills people?" Zhang Xuan felt incredible.

He suddenly had a feeling that maybe this was what he was looking for, so he said neatly: "Where is this painting, take it out to me and show me." ”

Zhang Dehuai was reluctant, and begged bitterly: "Your Majesty, that painting is indeed unknown, it has already killed many people, please think twice, Your Majesty." ”

"How many people are there?" Zhang Xuan asked.

"According to the slave maid wanted, at least seventeen people died in that painting. ”

"Seventeen people died because of a painting?" Zhang Xuan thought a lot for a while and asked, "How did these people die, did they commit suicide?"

"It's not. Zhang Dehuai shook his head, "These people died mysteriously in a dream."
