Liu Shaoqing came to the hall after washing, his face was haggard, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, although he was lonely and cold by nature, he was by no means rude, and he hugged his fists and said: "Thank you two for saving each other, I am grateful." ”

The two got up to return the salute, and Zhu Yushi said: "The decoction has been boiled, please drink it while it's hot." Liu Shaoqing said "yes", picked up the soup bowl and drank it in one gulp. Luo Tianchu said: "The main body of the village is poisonous, and it is not suitable to eat meat and fishy things, so I have prepared a few vegetarian dishes below, and the hospitality is not good, please forgive me." Liu Shaoqing said: "It's best to eat vegetarian food." ”

Three people sit down around the table, three dishes and one soup, which is relatively simple. Although Liu Shaoqing was hungry, he was still polite and did not lose his temper when eating. He doesn't touch the chopsticks and bowls, only uses one hand, chews silently, eats without speaking, doesn't pick or choose, and has no grains left. It is completely different from Luo Tianchu and Zhu Yushi's gobbling. Luo Tianchu picked up the big bowl with both hands, raised his neck to drink the soup, and saw that Liu Shaoqing stopped eating chopsticks, so he asked: "Is the owner full?" Liu Shaoqing nodded and said, "Thank you for your hospitality." Luo Tianchu wiped his mouth and said: "The owner of the village has not recovered yet, please rest assured that he is here to recuperate, I have arranged for someone to boil medicine for the owner every day." Liu Shaoqing said: "Thanks to the rescue, I don't dare to bother anymore." ”

Luo Tianchu smiled and said: "If it was me who was besieged today, would the owner of the village help?" Liu Shaoqing thought for a while and said, "Yes." Luo Tianchu smiled: "That's it, we are all chivalrous people, so we don't have to be polite, just stay in peace." Liu Shaoqing nodded and said, "Don't you two want to know what I took from the Jin Kingdom?" Luo Tianchu smiled: "If the owner wants to say it, he will naturally say it, and he doesn't have to be reluctant if it's inconvenient." Liu Shaoqing said: "There is nothing inconvenient, that thing does not belong to the Jin Kingdom." But Jin Guo wants to keep it for himself. ”

Zhu Yushi was curious: "What is so important?" Liu Shaoqing said: "It's a treasure map." The two exclaimed: "Treasure map?" Liu Shaoqing said: "This treasure map was originally from the former Liao State, after the Tanyuan Alliance, the Liao State entered its heyday, and the Liao Holy Sect was prepared for danger in times of peace, and stored a large number of gold, silver and jewelry for future needs." If the country's fortune is not good in the future, it is good to leave a chance for children and grandchildren to make a comeback, and it is said that the value of these treasures is comparable to that of the country. After the internal coups of the Xing and Dao sects, the Liao state declined, and the Jurchens rose to establish the Jin state, replacing the Liao state as the overlord in the north. After the defeat of the Liao army, the last emperor, Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi, led eight guards to die at the end of the world. In order to make the Liao State completely die, Jin Guo deliberately released the news that Yelu Yanxi had been beheaded, but he did not actually hold it. After so many years, Yelu Yanxi and eight guards lived incognito and settled in the mountains. The Jin State has occupied the north for many years, and the general trend has been decided, even if Yelu Yanxi comes back, it will not be able to make any big waves, but the Jin State still does not give up the search, in order to track down the whereabouts of the treasure. It turned out that a famous eunuch among the ministers of the Liao State told him that he had seen the treasure map, so Jin Guo firmly believed in it. Although Yelu Yanxi had the heart to restore the country, how could he have no good chance, but later he was old, and died one after another, and before he died, he handed over the treasure map to the last living guard, that person was named Yeluxi, who was also in his fifties at the time. Yelu Yanxi asked him to transfer the treasure map to someone who had the ability to fight against the Jin State, even if that person was not the royal family of the Liao State, it didn't matter, as long as he could overthrow the Jin State and avenge the Great Liao, everything would be at his disposal. ”

Luo Tianchuqi said: "How can the owner of the village know about such a secret matter?" Liu Shaoqing said: "It was Yeluxi who told me. Jerushi buried the body of the deceased lord and left the mountains to find the heir to the treasure map. He originally wanted to hand over the map to the Southern Song Dynasty, but when he heard that the Southern Song Dynasty officials were not Ming Jun, he dispelled his thoughts. It took many years to find the right person. Luo Tianchu said: "Who is it?" Liu Shaoqing glanced at him lightly and said, "It's you." Luo Tianchu was stunned and couldn't believe it: "Me?" Liu Shaoqing said: "You have defeated the Jin Army in a row, you have the Jingzhao Mansion in Guanzhong, and the momentum is flourishing, Yeluxi originally planned to come to Chang'an to visit you in person, but who knew that he met Cheng Jian and seven people on the road." Cheng Jian and the others were hired by the Jin State a year ago to carry out secret missions such as assassination, and the capture of Yelu Yanxi was also one of their tasks. Jeluxi had bad luck and was found out by seven people, so he fought hard. Although Jeluxi's martial arts are not weak, they are not as good as the seven people joining forces, and they are about to be defeated and captured, and it just so happened that I was passing by there. After the Yanjing competition, I was in a depressed mood and didn't want to return to the villa immediately, so I traveled all over the world to hone my mind and swordsmanship. At that time, when he saw that Yelu Xining was unyielding, thinking that he was loyal and brave, he appeared to rescue him and took him to fight and retreat. Cheng Jian and the seven didn't dare to approach too much, they just followed from a distance, and when they had the opportunity, they would fight. I could not protect Jerushi during the fight, and he was injured and saw that he was not alive, so before he died, he entrusted me with the treasure map, told me the ins and outs, and asked me to pass it on to you. I don't want to live up to his deathbed entrustment, so I came to Guanzhong to find you. The seven men also followed, all the way here, and this is the passage. ”

Luo Tianchu was flattered and said: "How can I be so valued by Yeluxi. Liu Shaoqing took out a parchment roll from his arms and said, "That's it, and after handing it over to you, it will be considered as fulfilling one of my wishes." Luo Tianchu took the parchment scroll, unfolded it, and saw that there were many houses and streets painted on it, it was a map of the city, and a circle was drawn on one of the mansions in the picture, presumably the place where the treasure was hidden was in the mansion. Luo Tianchu saw the lower right corner written 'Shangjing at a glance', and said strangely: "Where does this Shangjing mean?" Liu Shaoqing said: "The former Liao implemented the five-capital system, and Shangjing was the capital of the former Liao. ”

Luo Tianchu said: "Over the years, there have been wars and dynasties, and I don't know if this mansion is still there." Liu Shaoqing said: "Even if the house is not there, the treasure must be there, otherwise Jin Guo will not look for it." Luo Tianchu said happily: "In the past year, we have recruited new soldiers, and the military budget is tight, and this treasure is really a blessing in the snow." The owner of the willow village sent such a generous gift, you have to accept half of it anyway after you get it. Liu Shaoqing said: "I will dedicate my life to the way of the sword in the morning, the money is not what I want, I don't want a penny." Luo Tianchu said: "Then how to go, I have to thank you somewhat." Liu Shaoqing said: "If you want to go treasure hunting, I can accompany you to help, and going deep into the dangerous place of the Jin Kingdom is the best experience." When it's done, I'm going to take one of the treasures. Luo Tianchu said happily: "It's really good to have the owner of Liuzhuang willing to help, and you can take whatever you want at that time." ”

Liu Shaoqing said: "Can the two of you know the origin of the Divine Sword Villa?" Luo Tianchu said embarrassedly: "We don't have a lot of knowledge, and we still hope that the Lord of Liuzhuang will teach us." Liu Shaoqing said: "The Divine Sword Villa was founded by my great-grandfather and great-grandmother, and the two of them used the current sword. That year, in order to pursue the highest realm of swordsmanship, my great-grandfather took the sword of despair to live in seclusion and enlightenment, and once he went, he never returned, and no one knew his whereabouts. The ruthless sword also sank into the sea. However, Jerushi told me that the Sword of Despair was also among the treasures, so I moved to find the treasure. The Sword of Despair is my family heirloom sword, and it cannot be lost, but I can't find it alone, so we take what we need. Luo Tianchu smiled and said: "Okay! Then we will go to Linhuang to hunt for treasures, and tomorrow we can set off after discussing with the military advisor." ”

The two said goodbye and left the small courtyard, and after leaving the small courtyard, they saw Ling Xue'er sitting by the lotus pond and throwing stones into the water. Zhu Yushi smiled and said, "I won't bother you." Luo Tianchu also smiled: "It's you who are anxious to go back to accompany your two younger siblings." Zhu Yushi scolded with a smile and left first.
