Before this, I always thought that the map in the hairpin was used to find some kind of artifact. I never thought that this map was actually related to the dragon vein. The theory of dragon vein has always been believed by Taoism and Confucianism. Everyone knows that the dragon vein is related to the destiny and luck of the country.

But this map is the continuation of the Dragon Veins of China. What does it have to do with the Japanese? Why do they value this map so much? Where did they get this map? What do they want to do with this map?

At this time, he only expanded the map a little, revealing only this column of small characters. However, he was not in a hurry to fully expand the map, but called Song Cai who was waiting outside.

Song Cai walked in and waved to him. When Song Cai approached, he picked up the silk on the table and handed it over, "Shopkeeper Song, look at this."

Song Cai had previously participated in the siege of the opponent in Yizhuang, and now by some strange combination of circumstances, he had become his boss. Song Cai was already frightened and cautious, but when he saw that the thing in the hairpin was handed to him, he became more and more frightened, and continued to

Waving his hand, "Master, you can't do that."

"Don't be suspicious when you employ people, and don't use people when you are suspicious. There is nothing wrong with you." He said casually.

Hearing this, Song Cai was so moved that he took the silk with trembling hands. Because the silk was very thin and tightly rolled for a long time, it had become somewhat sticky. Except for a small part that was unfolded, other areas were still stuck together.

Song Cai did not unfold the silk silk completely, but carefully examined the visible parts. After a short period of careful identification, Song Cai put the silk silk back on the table and turned to look at it with a shocked expression.

"What do you think?" he asked seriously.

Song Cai was very nervous and coughed twice to calm down, "Go back to my employer, this silk is indeed from the Qin Dynasty, and the handwriting on it was also written by the Qin Dynasty."

Looking at him with raised eyebrows, Song Cai hurriedly pointed at the silk and explained, "Most of the silk used in the Qin Dynasty was produced in the Chu State. Chu silk was silvery white and extremely slender. Because the silkworms in the Qin Dynasty were much thinner than the current silkworms, so

Naturally, the silk produced becomes finer. Thousands of years later, the silkworm species in the Qin Dynasty have long since disappeared, and the silk used for silk at this time was very thick and tough."

After nodding slowly, Song Cai pointed to the row of small seal characters and said, "The saying of Kyushu first began in the Qin Dynasty. Look at this ink mark. It would take thousands of years to make it so deep."

Song Cai is the shopkeeper of the Taiping Inn, and his daily job is to learn about the past and present. He has no doubts about his judgment, "What else?"

"Are you referring to why this map fell into the hands of Japanese people?" Song Cai asked back.

"Let's talk." He took the square stool beside him and put it next to Song Cai. After sitting on the wooden chair, he pointed at the square stool and motioned for Song Cai to sit down and talk.

Song Cai was quite frightened by being treated with such courtesy. After thanking him, he sat down cautiously and said, "My boss, do you know that there is an alchemist named Xu Fu beside the First Emperor?"

"The one who took five hundred boys and five hundred girls to find the elixir for Qin Shihuang?" he asked rhetorically.

"Yes, it is this man," Song Cai nodded. "According to legend, this man was the most favored alchemist of the First Emperor. This man led the boys and girls to sail eastward and never returned. It is said that the Japanese people

They are the descendants of them and the Japanese aborigines who were not yet civilized at that time."

"You mean this map is real?" asked.

"I think it's true," Song Cai nodded sternly, "As the most trusted alchemist of the First Emperor, Xu Fu, with the support of the First Emperor, is entirely possible to detect the specific location and continuation of the Nine Provinces Dragon Veins."

"The Japanese care about this map very much. In order to get it, they would not hesitate to break into the Dali Temple Prison." He said.

Since he didn't understand the intention, Song Cai didn't rush to answer the call.

"I think the Japanese came to our Tang Dynasty with this map and they must have no good intentions. What do you think?" he asked casually.

The country of Japan is what people in the Tang Dynasty call Japan, and Japan is what Japan calls itself. Song Cai knew that the Japan he was talking about was the country of Japan, so he nodded sternly, "What my boss said makes sense, and the Japanese are not kind people."

Time was very tight, so he didn't waste any time. He stretched out his hand and unfolded the silk completely.

In order to avoid suspicion, Song Cai quickly tilted his head to the side.

There are a large number of vertical and horizontal zigzag lines on the map, representing the directions of mountains, rivers and rivers. Apart from these dazzling and messy lines, the names of mountains, rivers and rivers are not clearly marked on the map. The most conspicuous ones are thirteen dots of different colors.

These thirteen dots of different colors are distributed in different areas of the map. There are six colors in total, two white, two green, two black, two red, four yellow, and one gold.

The golden dot is obviously larger than the other twelve dots of different colors.

Since he had heard from the rat demon not long ago that the twelve earthly branches were associated with the golden dragon, the moment he saw the map he knew that this map was indeed a map of the continuation of the dragon vein. As a member of the Taoist sect, he naturally knew the twelve earthly branches.

The five elements belong to

Among the five elements, Shen Monkey and You Rooster belong to gold, and gold is white.

The five elements of Yin Tiger and Mao Rabbit belong to wood, and wood is green.

The five elements of Rat and Pig belong to water, and water is black.

The five elements of ugly ox, Chenlong, Weiyang and garrison dog belong to earth, and earth is yellow.

The twelve dots of different colors on the map are undoubtedly the locations of the twelve earthly branches.

And that big yellow dot is naturally the dragon vein where the golden dragon is located.

"Look at this map again." He handed the map to Song Cai without hesitation.

Song Cai became more and more frightened when he saw this, and he was also moved in his fright, because this move showed his absolute trust in him.

At this point, he had to watch it even if he didn't want to, not to mention that everyone is curious, and he was no exception.

Choosing to believe in Song Cai is really helpless, because this

He couldn't do this thing by himself, and he had to rely on Song Cai's help for the next thing. However, his choice to believe in Song Cai was not blind, because only he and Song Cai knew about this matter. If the news leaked, it would be Song Caiqian.

of.

The Song family is a very big family, and Song Cai also has a wife, children, and children. Having a family is a burden. People who are burdened do not dare to act recklessly, because they need to think about their families at all times.

The most important thing is that Taiping Inn has a great reputation, and Song Cai has gained both fame and wealth, so there is no need to betray and leak secrets.

In addition, there is another very important reason, that is, Song Cai is a businessman. Businessmen are the best at weighing gains and losses, and will never make irrational actions in a moment of enthusiasm.

After a moment, Song Cai looked away and said seriously, "My boss, give me a day, I can make a fake that looks like the real thing."

"We only have one hour." He said in a deep voice. Who is in what position is ultimately determined by his mind and structure. Through his unabashed actions, Song Cai guessed what he wanted him to do.

"An hour," Song Cai thought anxiously, "It's too hasty. I can't do it alone. I need help."

Without waiting for an answer, Song Cai hurriedly said, "This matter is of great importance and we cannot let others know about it. Boss, please help me if I feel sorry for you."

"Okay." nodded.

"Let's go back to the inn." Song Cai left his seat and stood up.

"You go back first, I will rush over after half a stick of incense." He said.

Song Cai nodded in agreement and left in a hurry.

Simply tidy up, put out the fire, close the door, call the policeman on night watch, and relock the door together with the servant.

After leaving Ni's Mansion, I immediately used my body skills to rush back to Yushitai. Without leaving the door, I climbed over the wall from the northeast and landed in the courtyard where Yu Yi lived.

The moment it landed, Yu Yi noticed it, and the sound of a sword being unsheathed was heard in the room.

"I," whispered, "get dressed and open the door. I have something urgent."

Yu Yi didn't light the lamp, put on his clothes, opened the door, stepped in sideways, trying to be concise and concise, "At three o'clock, two men and one woman will break into the Dali Temple Women's Prison again. I need you to do three things."

The first thing is to adapt to circumstances and ensure that they can escape unscathed without letting them find out that you are helping them. The second thing is that the woman among the three has an agreement with me. You have to look for suitable opportunities.

The man nodded slightly at him without noticing. Third, you have to follow them after they enter the women's prison. Their purpose is to rescue a prisoner in the women's prison. You can't let them rescue the person. You can't save him before your eyes.

After the prisoner is taken away, one of the men will give a hairpin to the female prisoner. After the female prisoner opens the hairpin and returns it to the man, you can let them go."

What he said was clear and precise. Yu Yi understood it easily and simply repeated it, "I want to help them escape without letting them notice that I am helping. I want to find

Chance nodded at the woman. I can't let them rescue the prisoner, I have to force them to give the hairpin to the prisoner to open."

"Correct, at the third quarter of the night, you must bring the Hanyue Sword." He nodded.

"At the third quarter of the fourth watch, bring the Hanyue Sword." Yu nodded.

"Okay, I'm leaving first." He turned around and went out, climbing over the wall.

When we rushed back to Taiping Inn, all the waiters on the third floor had been sent away by Song Cai, who was busy alone in the room.

Seeing the return, Song Cai immediately ordered errands. In order to ensure that the fake could be mistaken for the real thing, Song Cai went to the extreme details. Everything was available in the Taiping Inn. The silk silk was directly made of Qin Shi silk. If there was no blank, a piece of Qin Shi's clothes was destroyed.

, carefully cut and then soaked in potion to fade.

The ink used in the Qin Dynasty was also different from that at this time, and was collected in the same way. A roll of bamboo slips in the Qin Dynasty was destroyed, washed with rice water and salt, the ink on the bamboo slips was washed off, and then steamed over high heat. After it was completely dried, it was

Remove the rice flour and salt to get the required black ink.

This process is the most time-consuming, but it can be done by directly using pure Yang Qi to quickly heat up.

The Taiping Inn has transparent colored glass. The original is placed under the colored glass, and the light shines from below. The fake silk is pasted on top of the colored glass, and the hard-earned ink is directly dipped in it to restore and copy the mountains and rivers according to the original. This cannot be faked.

It's easy to spot if it's fake.

This is probably not the first time Song Cai has done something similar. His writing is very steady and his lines are smooth. Antiquities are the main way for the Taiping Inn to make money. The shopkeeper may not have to make fakes, but he certainly does things similar to restoration.

At the beginning of the fourth update, 90% of the fake work was completed, leaving only the most important step, which is to re-point the location of the dots.

At this time, the two of them discovered that only two of the thirteen dots were black dots, and there were five other colors: gold, yellow, white, green, and red that were not prepared.

Fortunately, there is still a lot of time left, so hurry up and prepare. After a quarter of an hour, you will be ready and start marking.

The general direction cannot be changed, otherwise it will not be consistent with the Yin Yang and Five Elements. It only needs to be slightly upward. The slightest deviation on the map will be thousands of miles away in reality.

After understanding Song Cai's meticulousness, just when he thought he was done, Song Cai pointed out that the smell was wrong. There was white phosphorus hidden inside the hairpin of the Iga family, and there was no smell of white phosphorus on the fake that they had made.

White phosphorus was hastily found and heated and roasted with pure Yang Qi, which not only left the smell but also made the ink stains old and mottled.

After it was done, Song Cai frowned and looked at it carefully, and then re-rolled it and put it into the hairpin after confirming that it was all right.

It was almost the third quarter of the fourth watch, so I didn't dare to delay at all. I took the hairpin and jumped out of the window. I rushed to the extreme and finally arrived under the big locust tree before three quarters.

The hairpin is placed under the tree and half buried in the soil.
Chapter completed!
