Qin Ke bypassed a few corners and didn't ask for directions as usual, after all, he already had a map of the Tang Kingdom in his hand, and there was still a living map of Gao Yishui standing beside him, so he wouldn't get lost.

And just after he turned left and right, he finally avoided the crowd of people, and gradually went deep into the quiet street, but it was quiet, in fact, there were a lot of people, the lantern festival had not yet begun, the vendors on the side of the road had put all kinds of lanterns on the stalls, many people looked at them one by one in front of the stalls, and when someone saw a lantern, the boss would carefully reveal a small note from the sleeve and hand it to the buyer.

This is probably the answer to the riddle.

However, of course, Qin Ke did not come here to buy lanterns, but continued to move forward, and soon, the three of them stopped in front of an inn.

"Wanglu Mountain. Qin Ke looked at the name of the store, and thought to himself that this Ding'an City is really full of elegance, this Wanglu Mountain, probably which sentence in the poem? He handed over the horse to Xiao Er, and then drove straight in and walked in front of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was settling accounts, his fingers were light, and the abacus was ticking, like a good song, he didn't raise his eyes, but said softly: "Is the guest officer going to eat or stay in the hotel?"

Qin Ke took a deep breath and said, "Is there one in the upper room? It's best to have rosewood tables and chairs." ”

The shopkeeper's fingers suddenly stopped, and he slowly raised his head, revealing his face that was wrinkled with a lot of wrinkles due to old age: "Yes, it's just that the table has been around for a long time, and there are a few cracks on it." ”

"It doesn't matter. What I like is the smell of rosewood, cracks...... As long as there are no bugs hidden in it. ”

The shopkeeper nodded and said softly, "Guest officer, please, I'll take you to see the room." ”

Xiao Er had just tied the horse at this time, and just heard the last sentence, a little strange, rosewood tables and chairs are rarely used in the inn, but there is just such a pair of tables and chairs in his store, which is said to be the dowry of the shopkeeper's dead aunt, but how did this guest know?

But he didn't think much about it, maybe this guest really had some fanatical hobby for rosewood, so he specifically inquired.

And Qin Ke and his party followed the shopkeeper upstairs and entered a room by the window, where the shopkeeper leaned slightly and closed the door.

"Is the prime minister okay?" asked the shopkeeper softly, turning around slowly.

Qin Ke nodded: "I was sick a few days ago, but now I am much better." ”

The shopkeeper also nodded: "I am far away in the Tang Kingdom, and I can't fulfill my filial piety, but I left an old mountain ginseng, if you go back, help me bring it." ”

Qin Ke looked at the shopkeeper, his face was a little weird, thinking that the shopkeeper should be in his sixties, but what did he say about filial piety, although he didn't understand the truth of the Heaven and Earth Monarch, but he still felt a little unacceptable.

"I'll leave these things at that. The shopkeeper continued, "I don't know what to call an adult?"

"Qin Ke. Qin Ke did not deny his title of "adult" at this time, after all, at this time, he was a "liaison" of Zhuge Wanling, representing Zhuge Wanling, and the word "adult" was also bearable, "Zhuge ......" He just wanted to call out Zhuge Wanling's name, but he quickly reacted and continued, "The prime minister said that you have something to give him." ”

The shopkeeper didn't deny it, but his eyes drooped, he took out a box from his sleeve and said, "That's it." ”

Qin Ke slowly opened the box, his eyes were strange, different from what he imagined, this box was not an old mountain ginseng, nor a rare jade, nor a document that recorded top-secret information...... Spoon.

"This ......" Qin Ke didn't know what to say, maybe this soup spoon was used by the emperor of some dynasty? It was an antique? Oh yes, in the main hall where Zhuge Wanling was, there were indeed several shelves, on which there were a lot of porcelain and bronze ware......

"What kind of dynasty is this...... Qin Ke held back for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking.

Gao Yishui's eyes seemed a little fanatical, and when he heard Qin Ke say this, he rolled his eyes, thinking that this kid was not educated to a certain level: "This is something that was handed down by the ancient saint king at that time." ”

"Ancient Saint King...... Have you used a soup spoon?" Qin Ke said strangely, if he said so, this thing was one of the most precious antiques in the world, but it was really strange for him to put a soup spoon on the shelf and watch it all day.

Gao Yishui was drinking tea to ease his emotions, and when he heard Qin Ke's question, he squirted out all the tea in his mouth, and Abu, who was sitting directly opposite him, probably didn't expect such an incident, and was directly sprayed with water all over his face, embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Gao Yishui couldn't help laughing, and reached out and handed a towel over, but Abu shook his head, signaled that he had it, and then wiped his cheek. He wiped it, looked at the "soup spoon", and said softly, "This shouldn't be ......"

Gao Yishui smiled lightly and said, "This is the Five Elements Sinan." Of course, only partially. ”

"This is the Five Elements Sinan?" Qin Ke said with some surprise, "I thought that the Five Elements Sinan was no different from the current compass. ”

"Please, when was the Ancient Saint King. Gao Yishui snorted and said, "It is recorded in the ancient books that 'the Fang family uses a magnet to grind needles and sew, and it can be guided. It was only hundreds of years ago, and the ancient holy kings basically did not use Sinan to identify the direction at that time, the so-called "Sinan's ladle, cast it on the ground, its guide ', the shape of the spoon corresponds to the seven stars in the sky, Beidou, can distinguish yin and yang, judge good luck and evil. To put it bluntly, it is divination. ”

The old shopkeeper nodded slightly and said, "This gentleman is very knowledgeable." ”

Gao Yishui smiled and said, "Win the prize, pass the prize." ”

Qin Ke sighed, he really didn't have much to do with this kind of miscellaneous science, but when he understood it, he looked at the "spoon" in front of him differently, this is one of the Five Elements Sinan Artifact?

He had imagined many scenes where he found the artifact, perhaps in the deep caves of the deep mountains and old forests, or in the craters that were about to erupt, or in the tombs where the hidden mechanism was extremely dangerous, but this Five Elements Sinan was seen without any effort when he first arrived in the Tang Kingdom, which made him feel like he was dreaming.

He stretched out his hand and slowly touched the Five Elements Sinan with his fingertips, feeling that the vicissitudes of ten thousand years seemed to have crossed the distance and came straight to his face, and the slightly rough touch was like an electric current running down his arm and straight to his brain.

He seemed to hear the voice again, like a man, like a woman, calling to himself: "Come...... Come ......"

He raised his head and wanted to ask Gao Yishui and the others if they had heard this voice, but found that there was an unfathomable darkness in front of him, and he was not in the inn!

The neighing of war horses and the trampling of iron hooves came from afar like a flood, there were countless people shouting, the war drums were deafening like thunder, Qin Ke was dark in front of him, but he already felt that there were countless people charging towards him.

He saw the silhouettes of the cavalry in the darkness, they were clad in black iron armor, as cold as a sharp knife, and the light did not dare to approach their bodies, but could only curl up in the darkness, shivering. Qin Ke raised his eyes, the leader was covered in iron armor, holding a long sword, the sword system looked a little familiar, and the eyes under the helmet almost penetrated himself.

"Are you...... Who?" Qin Ke tried hard to see their faces, but the darkness gradually thickened, and soon he couldn't see anything, only the voice in front of him hummed like gold and iron rubbing.

"Kill. "That humanity.

Suddenly, the war horses roared in unison, and the iron hooves ran towards him.

Qin Ke was frightened and protected his arms in front of his head, but how could he be worthy of those heavily armored iron horses alone? However, those shadows in the darkness passed through him and rushed behind him, he turned his head suddenly, although he couldn't see anything, the wails and cries of countless people were so straightforward.

They didn't come for themselves.

Qin Ke wanted to step forward to stop it, but as soon as he took a step, he suddenly found that he was holding a sword in his hand, and blood was slowly dripping from the sword.
