Chapter 51: The Mysterious Scroll

This time I returned to Chaisang from Jianye, and it was not as smooth as the last time Chai Sang came to Jianye, and the weather turned cold. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 InfoTherefore, most people stay in the cabin room to escape the cold and rest.

And in the warm cabin, Shao Yuan was frowning deeply at the scroll in front of him. This scroll was accidentally touched in the cottage that day, so I brought it out.

Just as he was pondering, there was a gentle knock on the door, accompanied by a high-pet call "Shaoyuan, it's me"

Shaoyuan didn't hide the scroll either, so he simply went to open the door and welcomed Gao Zhong in.

Gao Zhong entered the door, found a place to sit down, and asked, "Shaoyuan, what are you looking for me?"

Shao Yuan looked at the sides, closed the door, and at the same time pointed to the scroll on the table, "Ah pet, you are resourceful, see how to disassemble the mechanism of this scroll"

Gao Chong's gaze shifted in the direction Shao Yuan pointed, it was a quaint scroll.

Gao Zhong picked up the quaint scroll and began to observe it carefully, the color of the scroll has long since faded, leaving only the pattern of difficult to make out the details, but the locks at the upper and lower ends of the compact scroll are still shiny, and it is speculated that the interior must be intact. I'm afraid there is a mechanism between these two locks, and if you forcibly break it open, I'm afraid this scroll will be destroyed.

Gao Zhong gently patted the scroll, hoping to find a possible switch, and after a period of fumbling, Shao Yuan stared at two small pale cylinders. Gao Pet's left and right hands held up the two small cylinders one after the other, and as soon as he exerted his force, the scroll made a "click" sound, and Shaoyuan immediately came to Gao Pet's side and waited for the result

The mechanism was triggered, and the two locks were retracted inwards at the same time, revealing two extremely short openings. Gao Zhong sighed, "Shaoyuan, I'm afraid that the mechanism is just revealing the keyhole, and if you want to open this mechanism, I'm afraid you need two keys." You see, although these two ends are indented inward, in fact, the scroll is still stuck by two locks, and the round holes at the upper and lower ends are probably the two keys."

Shao Yuan nodded, "So, come, Ah Pet, I've worked hard for you, please eat" Shao Yuan took out a sugar gourd out of nowhere and handed it to Gao Pet.

Gao Pet stretched out his hand to take it, "Thank you", you are not welcome at the moment, so he ate it, and there was a familiar feeling as soon as he took his mouth, "The taste of Jianye Yunji, although it is not very authentic, but it is good to be able to imitate it to this level."

Shaoyuan smiled and said, "What are you talking about, this is what Sister-in-law Yun did, but the Yunji you said is probably Sister-in-law Yun's father-in-law, today I met them by chance, so I bought these sugar gourds"

Gao Zhong nodded and asked, "Shaoyuan, where did you get that scroll?" The mechanism is so exquisite, I'm afraid that the things you remember are absolutely extraordinary."

Shaoyuan shrugged his shoulders, "I got it by accident when I sneaked into the cottage before"

When Gao Zhong heard this, he frowned quietly, "A dilapidated cottage actually has such a profound thing, it is a big matter, Shaoyuan, you put away this scroll, and when you return to Chaisang, we will tell the master and see how the master decides this matter."

Shao Yuan nodded, touched the mechanism, and restored the scroll to its original state.

Gao Chong also stood up and arched his hand, "Then I won't bother Shaoyuan, you won't leave"

Shaoyuan also got up and bowed back.

There are two flowers, one on each branch

Gao Pet returned to the room, but before he sat down, he heard a knock on the door, so Gao Pet also opened the door, and the knocker was Wu Xu.

The two sat down in the room, and Wu Xu arched his hand, "Son, the matter has been done"

Gao Zhong closed his eyes and asked, "Then what is the attitude of the Jingzhou family?"

Wu Xu arched his hand and said, "Fortunately, they are willing to cooperate with us and hand over the evidence of the people of Jingzhou, and they are even willing to be witnesses."

Gao Zhong said jokingly, "Oh, they actually put such a heavy amount of money, they are not afraid that if the plan fails, then the assassin will be beaten up?"

Wu Xu shook his head, as the Ma family in Xiangyang said, "The stabbing history of the people, disregarding the life and death of the people, is deserved, and now someone is willing to come forward, it is really a blessing for Jingzhou."

Gao Zhong sneered, "It's a pity, I don't need them as witnesses, so you can ask someone to collect this evidence and submit it to Zhang Situ's mansion."

Wu Xu wondered, "This Lord Thorn Shi, I remember that it is a disciple of Zhang Situ, shouldn't we present it to Lord Sikong?"

Gao Zhong shook his head, "If we submit it to Lord Sikong, it is equivalent to a slap in the face of Zhang Situ, now Zhang Situ is in charge of the authority of the court, although our Gao family has contributed to the imperial court, but after all, no one is an official in Luoyang, such a situation, it is very passive, a small thorn history is impossible to hurt Situ Gen, he has no grudge with our Gao family in the past, and there is no enmity in the near future." The reason why I insist on bringing down this Jingzhou thorn history is that I don't want the matter of missing a dart some time ago to be publicized."

Wu Xu nodded, "So Gongzi handed this person back to Situ for processing, just to express that the Gao family has no opinion on Situ himself, and he does not covet the position of Jingzhou Assassin History, this position is naturally arranged by Situ himself." ”

Gao Zhong nodded and said with a smile: "What Brother Wu said is exact, first, it can make Zhang Situ think that the history of Jingzhou has aroused public anger for a long time, but our Gao family helped him suppress it." And it will allow him to retain his influence on Jingzhou without damaging his muscles and bones. However, I still have to tell my father about this matter and obtain my father's consent, after all, I can't write to Zhang Situ as a hairy boy from the Gao family."

Wu Xu asked again, "But Childe, what if Zhang Situ insists on not changing, and even really points his hair at the Gao family?"

Gao Chong shook his head and said, "Although he is in charge of the court, Lord Sikong and Lord Sima have long been eyeing him, if he dares to do something to the Gao family, with the ability of the Gao family, not to mention whether the saint will agree, just by attacking the meritorious minister, it can give the people of Sikong Mansion enough reasons to impeach Situ." Now that the court is just maintaining a balance, Zhang Situ is old and refined, and he will never make such a mistake."

Wu Xu arched his hand, "The son is far-reaching, and he is bowing down"

Gao Chong helped Wu Xu up, "Brother Wu, what are you doing, this time we are quite busy, I won't leave you Brother Wu, otherwise I will go back to Chaisang, sister-in-law will see Brother Wu You have lost a lot of weight, and your face is haggard, and you will feel distressed again." How will you let me deal with myself then?"

Wu Xu covered his head and laughed, "Let Childe laugh, then Wu Xu will go back to the room to sleep, and Childe will rest early"

Gao Pet also nodded, "Brother Wu is so resting"

Wu Xu pushed the door and left, for a long time

Gao Zhong pushed open the window in front of him and let the cold river breeze blow into the room, "Jingzhou Thorn History is a trivial matter, Uncle Zhao, isn't it good for you to obediently undertake the martial arts......?"
