Chapter 851 Chapter 851: Looking for clues (Part 2) [Requesting monthly tickets]
Qin Li misunderstood Shen Tang’s meaning and specifically explained: “Because he was educated at home, he often followed his elders to graves when he was young, but That is all in the past. He changed his mind after being sentenced to exile and has been a good man for many years."
Although he has been a good man, his experience is still there.
As soon as Shen Tang heard this, he knew that Qin Li had misunderstood: "That's not what I meant. I was just surprised that Gong Su had a wide circle of friends and met people who were engaged in this kind of industry. Logically speaking, such a person... I thought Gong Su wouldn't like it..."
Those who fight against each other love to be buried in rich tombs.
If it doesn't open for three years, it will last three years if it opens.
However, in this era, those who have the capital to enjoy riches and be buried with them after death are no more than nobles from aristocratic families, princes, generals and ministers. Logically speaking, Qin Li wouldn't like it if he followed the rules like this. Even if he had a retainer in the past, he probably wouldn't have such a career, right?
Qin Li had a slight smile on his lips: "It's due to fate."
Under normal circumstances, of course he would not hang out with someone who inherited the family's knowledge of inversion, let alone He said that he would recommend people to his lord, but they met when the country was destroyed. At that time, his retainer was not yet a retainer, but a prisoner who was caught by mistake and sentenced to exile in shackles. If nothing unexpected happens, this person will die on the road of exile, or even if he does not die, he will lose most of his life.
As a result, the country was destroyed.
The doorman luckily escaped.
On the way to escape, disease and hunger drove him to a dead end. It was in this situation that Qin Li picked up someone. Despite his unscrupulous profession and specializing in digging ancestral graves, he also has a grateful and chivalrous heart. At this point, he recognized Qin Li as his master and served him around.
After that, he also found a serious job in the army of the headquarters.
"If my lord needs it, this person may be able to help."
Our ancestors have been fighting for generations, and their accumulated experience and rich experience are definitely better than others. Stronger.
Shen Tang thought that he was idle now, so he immediately walked on crutches and said, "What are you waiting for? Lead the way."
Qin Li subconsciously stepped to follow.
"There is no need for the lord to come in person, just send someone to summon him."
How can there be any reason for the lord to condescend to meet him?
Shen Tang's brain circuit is not on the same channel as his: "My foot is just sprained, not broken, I can walk on my own!"
The expression is stubborn, unyielding and stubborn.
It seemed that Qin Li's suggestion hurt her self-esteem.
Qin Li: "..."
In desperation, he could only lead the people back to the camp in person.
Qin Li’s headquarters military commander: “…”
Hey, are their eyes right?
Didn’t Gong Su go over to inquire with his lord about the general’s future arrangements? Why did you bring the person back directly? The temporary camp didn't look chaotic, but they had just come off the battlefield and were covered in blood, as if they had been dug out of a pile of dead people.
It’s a bit unseemly to meet people like this.
Before they could get entangled, Qin Li had already taken Shen Tang to a small tent with a small area. When he opened the curtain, the strong smell of blood inside mixed with various smells hit his face. There was a soy sauce-colored body lying on the bed.
When the curtain was opened and fresh air and sunlight poured into the tent, the man was tortured by the pain and couldn't sleep, and he was in a irritable mood. Mistakenly thinking that the person who came was a soldier who came to change dressing, he turned his face and planned to get angry: "Don't you know that you have to announce yourself when you come in?"
The next moment, his eyes met a familiar figure.
The man's expression froze. Next to the familiar figure was a not-so-familiar face. This person also had a pair of crutches under his arm. The tent was instantly quieter than the mourning hall. Qin Li was the first to react, raising his hand to block Shen Tang's sight with his wide sleeves.
He scolded in a low voice: "Asshole, what do you look like?"
This man was wearing a calf's nose robe all over his body, and he was lying on the bed with a piece of cloth between his buttocks. . Seeing that the color of this calf's nose is closer to soy sauce skin color, it seems that it has not been changed for a while. As both men, Qin Li couldn't stand it.
My lord is a girl! ! !
Shen Tang tilted his head: "No need to make a fuss."
Don't just expose your back, even if you are lying on your back, it's okay. Isn't it because the nose is blocking important parts? To put it ten thousand steps back, even if it is not blocked, the impact will not be big. Shen Tang was a painter in her previous life, a homebody who relied on her craft to support her family.
Although the relevant memories are pitiful, she remembers that her business scope is very wide, from cheap private portraits to expensive commercial manuscript orders, from emoticons to fan art, regardless of whether she has a lot of knowledge or a career. All postures are covered. In the society of the previous life, if you opened any unfamiliar web page, a bunch of sexy animated pictures would pop up, including men and women, and the male body was no stranger to her.
I remember when she first traveled through time, she even drew a picture of the secret play!
Although the job was snatched away by Yuan Liang, without Yuan Liang, Shen Tang was confident that he could complete the task and satisfy the customer!
Qin Lihan asked someone to put on his clothes with a cold face. After a burst of rustling sounds, an embarrassed male voice reached Shen Tang's ears.
“Okay, okay.”
Qin Li then dropped his raised sleeves.
The man simply put on two pieces of clothing and half-kneeled to apologize.
Shen Tang hooked up a horse with his crutch and said with a frown: "What are you asking for? Aren't you injured?"
He pointed at the bed with his crutch: "Sit back."
The man moved his hands and feet stiffly back. At this moment, he didn't care about the itching and burning of the wound. He asked Qin Li with his eyes without tears. Why would the new Lord suddenly arrive?
No advance notice!
Shen Tang tensed her muscles, looking calm and elegant, but in fact, she carefully lowered her butt on the horse tie. She was sure that the horse tie would not fall apart and embarrass her in public, so she put the weight down with confidence. Alas, don't ask her why she is so cautious, just ask because she has more experience! She sat on all the unqualified horses in the camp, and once even pricked her buttocks with sawdust!
"Just now Gongsu recommended you to me, saying that several generations of your ancestors have been engaged in fighting?" Shen Tang did not say any pleasantries, went straight to the point, and made a quick decision. In order to prevent this person from being nervous, excessive muscle tension is detrimental to wound healing, "So I came."
The man didn't expect that Shen Tang would come to him for this matter.
I was so frightened that my mouth and tongue started to fight, and I couldn't help but speak.
"It's true, it's true. It's just that I've been washing my hands in the golden basin for many years. I haven't done this for many years..." He was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to put his hands. He's not timid enough to fight, let alone rolling around and killing people on the battlefield all these years.
But Qin Li couldn't help but look at him with gloomy eyes.
The two have known each other for many years, when did I get such treatment?
The pressure from Qin Li was far greater than that from Shen Tang, the new lord. After all, Qin Li was his immediate boss who controlled everything.
Shen Tang lowered his voice to comfort: "It's not because I want to pursue anything, I just want to ask you for help, and I want to use your family knowledge."
When the man heard this, he said with fear and fear: " My lord, please tell me, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
I speak with dignity, but I feel embarrassed in my heart. The lord Yuzun has deigned to come to see her. The things she asks her to do may not be easy to handle, and her life may be in danger. It's just that as a subordinate, he had to fight for her, so he couldn't help but refuse.
Seeing his evasive expression, Shen Tang knew that the other party was not telling the truth, and did not expose it: "That's right, your ancestors have been in this business for many years, have you ever dug up any weird things?"
The man was stunned for a moment: "Weird thing?"
Shen Tang took out a stack of paper from his arms.
Hand it over for him to recognize.
“Look, are there any similar objects?”
The man took it respectfully with both hands and opened it with confidence, his expression instantly froze; when he opened the next picture, his relaxed brows wrinkled slightly ; Opening another one, not only the brows, but also the eyes are squeezed together, and there is confusion in the eyes.
He identified carefully and tried to recall. Shen Tang also held his breath nervously, for fear that his breathing would affect the other person...
A long time——
When the man put down the drawing paper, Shen Tang looked forward to speaking. "How is it? Have you seen anything above?"
The man grabbed the drawing paper and struggled: "Who is the person who drew it? The things on it really don't look like anything."
No, who can recognize this painting?
Even though he has seen so much, he still can’t recognize what those exaggerated balls of black thread and the ferocious ghost symbols are.
Shen Tang said in surprise: "How come? Isn't it difficult to recognize?"
She drew it very clearly.
Look, this diamond ring, this big-bellied TV, this monitor, this smartphone, all have a waterfall screen!
The man thought that Shen Tang had found a liar painter, and he murmured, not knowing what to say: "Is this what the Lord is looking for?"
Shen Tang nodded: "Yes!"
The man touched the seven He has a strong beard that hasn’t been shaved in eight days, and he squints his long and narrow triangle. He opened his eyes and said euphemistically: "I'm sorry for being stupid and stupid. I can't recognize the things painted by other painters. My lord, you might as well let Gong Su paint a painting. I understand what he painted!"
Shen Tang was at a loss: "..."
Is this actually tied up?
In desperation, she could only look at Qin Li with her eyes.
"I'm afraid I'm going to trouble Gongsu about this."
Qin Li secretly glanced at the man, who gave him a flattering smile, clasped his fists slightly, and looked pleading in his eyes. He could only agree, sent someone to get drawing paper and pen and ink, and said humbly: "Etiquette is not good at painting, so please don't make fun of me."
As the next royal Zongzheng, Qin Li mainly studied etiquette. Sacrifice-related content, such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and other projects that cultivate sentiments, only need to get started. Regarding painting skills, Qi Yuanliang also commented that he was full of craftsmanship and had no agility.
It’s barely eye-catching, not very good.
Shen Tang continued to describe the shape, size and color of the objects. Qin Li listened carefully and made corrections and smudges on the drawing paper from time to time. The two of them "you said it and I drew it" and successfully finalized it in a few rounds. Shen Tang pointed to the content on the drawing paper and nodded with satisfaction.
He said to the man: "Yeah, that's it."
The man: "..."
He cursed in his heart and greeted the person who deceived Shen Tang. He asked the calligrapher—these ghost-drawing talismans in his hand were related to the ones drawn by Gong Su. Are they related to a penny?
The lord didn’t kill the last painter?
The man wanted to crumple the drawing paper in his hand into a ball and throw it away, but Shen Tang was reluctant to part with it: "You can't throw it away. Paper is so expensive. If you dispose of it later, you can turn it into pulp and make it into paper."
Official Office This is how paper is discarded every day.
Man: "..."
Shen Tang interrupted the man's thoughts: "Do you have any impression?"
Under Shen Tang's description, Gong Su drew two pictures in a row. There were more than a dozen modern objects. The man carefully read the patterns and text descriptions of each one, and shook his head: "I have never seen them before."
Before Shen Tang could feel disappointed, she heard the man say again: "However, the handwritten notes passed down from ancestors contain objects of similar materials, but they are rarely complete. I don't know what they are, and they will emit a strange and pungent smell when burned. The smell."
Shen Tang was shocked: "Do you have it in your hand? "
The man shook his head: "It's not worth it, no one wants it."
Shen Tang asked again: "Where can I receive it?"
"If it were three to five hundred earlier. Years ago, there might be more. I’d like to ask if I can get some. It’s hard to find them now.”
Shen Tang naturally wanted to ask clearly: "Why?"
"Because those things are afraid of civility and martial arts. Countries in the mainland have been fighting for years, and any piece of land has been plowed back and forth a hundred and eight times, even under the ground. These things will disappear over time, but if the Lord really wants to find them, there is no place left.”
“Where can I find them?” ?”
The man replied: “Such as the Shiwuxi Territory and the Northern Territory of the Northern Desert. These places are surrounded by miasma and are inaccessible. The possibility of finding them is higher. The Lord can find some merchants who go to these places to do business. Ask them and ask them to bring it back.”
“Is it available in these places?”
The man nodded and said: "There should be. An ancestor from our ancestors once went to the Shiwu Western Territory to try his luck. It is said that there is a 'sea and sky line' all the way to the west of the Western Territory. In addition to the strong miasma, there are many strange objects in that place. The tide rises every day. when, There will be strange tides that wash things ashore...According to the ancestors' speculation, these things should belong to the sea monsters..."
Shen Tang was surprised: "The sea monsters?"
The man's eyes were filled with tears. A bit of fascination and curiosity.
“Not only the ancestors said so, but the remnants living there also said so. They also said that sea monsters would use the tide to bring garbage to the coast. Perhaps it is because of these things that the strange miasma in the West is It has always been very serious, and it was also these miasmas that caused most of the survivors there... to look different from ordinary people..." As for how strange it was, the man had never seen it. He only knew that his ancestor fell ill with a strange disease not long after he returned and passed away. .
Thinking about it, it is also due to the influence of miasma.
Shen Tang silently wrote down these contents.
The Shiwu Territory is in her hands in disguise. Shiwu Western Territory is a place that you can visit if you have the opportunity in the future: "So, what about the Northern Territory of Northern Desert? Is it the same as the Shiwu Western Territory?"
The man shook his head: "No."
The place in the Shiwu Western Territory can barely be inhabited, but the northern border of the Northern Desert is different. The temperature there is very low, and the farther north you go, the more ice and snow you get. . In the coldest place, it is said that even a moderately brave warrior cannot bear it, and ordinary people will freeze to death if they go there.
Because the environment is extremely harsh, few people set foot there.
Under the ice here, there should be something painted by the Lord.
Whether you can find it or not depends on luck.
Think about it, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward! As long as there is enough money, the merchants will definitely bring back what the lord wants.
The more Shen Tang listened, the more he thought.
Although she has not seen any solid evidence, she is basically certain that this place is the "future". As for what happened in the past, the secret may be revealed in the future. Is the miasma in those places related to the "ghost energy" in the myth that Gong Xiqiu mentioned that day?
When leaving the camp, Shen Tang had collected his emotions.
Throw these trivialities into the corner for now.
After all, archeology is not her profession.
“Gong Su, please do me a favor.”
Qin Li said: “My lord, please speak.”
"To what extent can your scribe's way be applied?"

In an era without satellites, Gongsu's scribe's way was great for urban planning.
