Su Yi went very quickly and showed very good light skills, which made Zhao Bufan a little surprised, he didn't expect that this literati also had hidden martial arts. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Huang Sheng next to him thought secretly for a while, and didn't seem to get an answer, and quickly said to Zhao Bufan: "I don't care about other things, I just tell you now, Your Majesty decided to hold a major examination in five years to select all-round talents in civil and military affairs, and there are six subjects in the examination, of which the four subjects that have been agreed upon are "On the Success or Failure of Famous Battles", "On the Gains and Losses of Ancient Famous Ministers", "Appreciation of Poetry and Songs, Calligraphy and Painting Strange Stones", and "The Art of War". As for the remaining two subjects, they are randomly asked by His Majesty during the palace examination, and you only have five years. ”

When Zhao Bufan heard this, his heart was immediately overjoyed: the first two subjects are easy to do, I have the knowledge of future generations in my vague memory, and the depth and breadth of analysis must be higher than others. As for the battle formation of the art of war, I will summarize the actual combat at the border pass in the future, and combined with the military book, I should be able to give it a fight.

Zhi Yuezhi didn't know what he was thinking, and said strangely: "Isn't this a leak?"

"No, the system of subjects is that His Majesty will personally select the talents he likes, so the scope of the inspection will be announced, but in fact it is even more difficult than the regular imperial examination, because no one knows which battle, which famous minister, which calligraphy and painting will be asked, and in the end, there must be real talent and real learning! More importantly, the candidates must also figure out what His Majesty will be happy when he sees it, what he will be unhappy when he sees it, what he cares about the most, what he doesn't care about, what he can write and what he can't write!" When Huang Sheng said this, his eyes were looking at Zhao Bufan.

Zhao Bufan also understood his words and smiled silently.

Seeing that he quickly understood what he meant, Huang Sheng secretly praised his cleverness, but he didn't say anything more, took out a folded piece of paper from his arms, and handed it to Zhao Bufan: "This is the treasure map that I asked the Jingtao Gang to rub in, I pondered for a long time, but I never figured out where the treasure is, since you are smart, then take a good look, if you can find the best location, find out as soon as possible, and I will return to Beijing to restore my life!"

Zhao Bufan unfolded the treasure map and looked at it carefully, and Yan Qing and Zheyuezhi next to him also leaned their heads over.

After a long time, Yan Qing and Zheyuezhi were still puzzled, but Zhao Bufan handed the treasure map back to Huang Shang, and walked out of the broken temple in contemplation, and everyone followed him closely.

A few people first went to the river beach behind the Dragon King Temple, then went to Ligu Town, and finally came to the highest place, so after a long circle, Zhao Bufan finally took them back to the dilapidated Dragon King Temple, just staring at the Yongji Canal in the distance and was stunned.

Zhi Yuezhi was a little impatient, pulled him and asked, "Brother Fanfan, where is the treasure?"

Huang Sheng and Yan Qing also listened attentively.

Zhao Bufan sighed and pointed to the Yongji channel in front of him: "Far away in the sky, close in front of you!"

"In the river?" Huang Sheng frowned, suspicious, "The treasure map is obviously a cave, how can it be in the river?"

In fact, Zhao Bufan had already confirmed the speculation in his heart, and in the face of their doubts, he sighed: "Alas, you don't want to think about it, when was the Yongji Canal repaired?"

"Emperor Yang of Sui!" Huang Sheng slowly opened his eyes, as if he understood a little.

Zhao Bufan smiled and nodded: "Yes, as Lord Huang said, it was Emperor Yang of Sui who sent people to build this river, and countless manpower and material resources were spent on it, but this rare Grand Canal project is huge, when choosing the location of the river, don't they survey, I'm afraid they would have turned this belt over a long time ago, when I first came here, I saw the Yongji Canal, the Grand Canal, I felt that the treasure should have been gone for a long time!" Master Pure Mind should have learned something from a local people, so she speculated that the treasure had been excavated, but she didn't see it with her own eyes, so she only asked us to ask ourselves, she was a master of the Dao, and she was worried that if she guessed wrongly, it would lead to indirect lying, so she didn't want to say it clearly!"

"But why is the terrain on the map different from the reality?" asked Huang Sheng again.

Zhao Bufan's vague memory made his thinking more flexible, and he immediately replied: "Lord Huang, the geology will change, this treasure picture was in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, can it be exactly the same now as it was then? Isn't the Yellow River still diverted several times? If you put aside the difference in terrain and find a few similarities as a reference, then you will find that the cave is actually the Yongji Canal behind the Dragon King Temple, maybe the predecessors built this Dragon King Temple because there is a cave below, and they regarded it as the Dragon Palace. ”

Huang Sheng spread out the drawings and re-read them according to the method Zhao Bufan said, and sighed after a long time: "You are right, the cave should be here, and there is no point in finding the cave now, Emperor Yang of Sui sent people to dig the Yongji Canal, since they are all dug like this, how can there be any treasures!"

As he spoke, he smiled and put away the treasure map, and took out a thin little book from his arms: "Since there is no treasure here, then I will also go back to Beijing to restore my life, don't forget the Luoyang Conference in three years, I have just finished writing the introduction to the Nine Yin Divine Claws, and the reason why I chose to teach you this is because I only have it on me, so you can take it!"

"Thank you, Lord Huang!" Zhao Bufan received it excitedly.

This is the original Nine Yin Divine Claw, not the Nine Yin White Bone Claw that practiced the wrong way, and its power is not the same.

This was the end of the matter, Huang Sheng said a few words, and took the lead to leave.

Zhao Bufan saw him go away, so he put the cheats in his arms, and happily said to Zhi Yuezhi and Yan Qing: "Let's go back and refer to it together, even if you don't need this primer, but it also contains the essence of Taoist martial arts after all, and it is a good thing to learn from it." ”

"Okay, then we'll go back now!" Yan Qing said with a smile.

But Zhao Bufan had no intention of leaving at all, but showed a strange smile.

"Who said to go back now?"

"Since there is no treasure, what are you doing here, we should also return to the Northern Frontier!" said Zhi Yuezhi confusedly.

The smile on Zhao Bufan's face became brighter and brighter.

"The big treasure must have been dug up, but the small treasure may not!"

"You lied to Lord Huang?" Orizuki's eyes widened suddenly.

"No, I didn't lie to him, the cave is indeed in this section of Yongji Canal, and the place indicated by the treasure is indeed here, but he didn't ask me how many treasures I have! I thought that Lord Huang would also give it back to the emperor, and the emperor is so rich, it is not bad!" Zhao Bufan spread his hands, his face full of innocence.

"Okay, extraordinary brother, I didn't expect you to be so treacherous!" Zhi Yuezhi immediately straightened her face, but she didn't pretend for long, but she was already happy to close her mouth, and kept nodding: "Well, I am finally half as smart as me, and it is not in vain that I recognize you as a younger brother, not stupid!!"

Yan Qing was also a little excited: "How did you find out that there is still a treasure in the treasure map, and what should we do now, where is the treasure?"

"In the past, my master didn't teach me much martial arts, but he taught a lot of miscellaneous things, but unfortunately his old man died too early, and I haven't learned it thoroughly, so I can only tell that this treasure map is a picture in a picture, but I can't understand the hidden line, so now I must find someone, otherwise I can't solve the mystery!"

"Who are you looking for?" asked Zhi Yuezhi anxiously.

Zhao Bufan's eyes showed a gleam, and he affirmed: "Whoever Master Jingnian has seen, then we will find whom, she can get information from that person, and deduce that the treasure is no longer there, then we may also be able to get the information we want, this is the only way at present, now Yan Qing and I need to rest, and we will act in the evening!"

"Okay!" Zhi Yuezhi and Yan Qing nodded repeatedly.

Zhao Bufan was not picky, and went back to the broken temple to sleep, and did not wake up again until sunset.

The three of them ate some dry food, left the broken temple, searched along the way, and whenever they saw a local person, they immediately asked the other party if they had seen Master Jingnian, but after two hours, there was no news at all, just when they were a little anxious, they saw an old fisherman in the south of Li Gu Town.

Yan Qing didn't report any hope, but she didn't think that the old fisherman nodded happily: "I have seen, that master is really a living bodhisattva, he cured my grandson's strange disease, and he didn't take a penny, among so many people in the rivers and lakes these days, this teacher is the best!"

Zhao Bufan stepped forward with a smile: "Uncle, do you know why these people from the rivers and lakes came?"

"It is said to be a treasure from the Eastern Han Dynasty, but I think they will run away for nothing!" the old fisherman fiddled with his fishing nets and spoke calmly.

"Can you tell us why?" asked Orizuki curiously.

The old fisherman smiled: "Actually, it's nothing, it's the story I heard from my ancestor when I was a child, his old man said to us at that time, in very ancient times, we had two immortal peaks here, on which lived immortals, and later the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor two tribes fought, the immortal peaks were destroyed, the immortal mansion was also broken, and it fell into the ground, one east and one west, facing each other, becoming a hell for prisoners, the west is locked up for eternal suppression of evil demons, and the east is locked up for immortals who fall into the devil's path. Later, the immortals went to heaven to live, and hell gradually fell into ruins.

Thousands of years later, Cao Cao occupied the north and led his troops to pass here, and the immortal master under his command found that there were still remnants of evil demons in hell, so he lit candles, laid out a formation and entered the cave to subdue demons, and many people died, and finally subdued the demons, so there is no treasure at all, hell is the place where the evil demons are held, and now it is even more unknown where, I am afraid that it was taken away by the dragon king in the river, I know that's all!"

Yan Qing and Zhiyuezhi were confused, and they were confused by the myths and legends of the old fisherman.

But Zhao Bufan's expression changed greatly, and he thought of a question.

Where the three of them left the old fisherman, Yan Qing immediately smiled bitterly and said: "I don't believe in gods and ghosts, this old fisherman's words are simply folk myths and legends, everywhere!"

"I don't think it's useful, we still have legends about Kunpeng over there, these are all myths that have been passed down for a long time, it's okay to listen to the story, who will take it seriously!" Orizukishi's eyebrows were squeezed together, looking very tangled.

"Who said that the myth told by the old fisherman is useless and useful, you should not be confused by the myth itself, but look at what the myth wants to cover up!"

Zhao Bufan trembled with excitement, and his eyes burst into light.
