Volume XVI Han and Tang Dynasty Chapter 1495 Deciphering the Map
Hou Baowu is not a girl, she has not learned needlework, and the technique of dismantling the leather jacket really makes people want to laugh, but this is not the point, the person who made this leather jacket should have guessed that there is such a day, even if it is a person who does not know how to sew and thread, he will not dismantle the leather jacket, the leather is a very strong thing, good protection, and it will not be a problem to use it for hundreds of years, not to mention that Hou Baowu is not intentionally destroying-1-
"There is a discovery. Hou Baowu's voice was full of excitement. No matter how much you have paid before, as long as it is gained, it will be worth it.
"What it is. Tang Hun also swam a little. Because of his angle backlight, he couldn't see the front of Hou Baowu.
"It's supposed to be a map, I'll know when I take these apart. Hou Baowu is worthy of being the general's son, but at this time he calmed down.
As the movements in his hands accelerated, more and more things appeared in front of Hou Baowu and Tang Hun's eyes. The jacket has been completely removed, revealing the ink lines inside. One side of the jacket is fur, the other side is skin, and in the leather troops, there are a lot of black lines horizontally and vertically, these are obviously drawn by people, and no animal in the world will be born with such a map-like line.
"It looks like there's a treasure. Hou Baowu suddenly felt that he was a little great, this time from the discovery of clues to the confirmation of clues, all with his participation, if this is really a treasure map, and the place where the treasure is hidden is really a lot of treasures, then when these treasures are converted to the construction of the artificial river, his share of credit is indispensable.
From childhood to adulthood, Hou Baowu can be said to have enjoyed the resources of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and has never contributed anything, this time, if he can really succeed, then he can be worthy of his old father's ambition.
"It's not certain yet!"
Tang Hun's words woke up Hou Baowu. Now it is only a few lines of fighting, and these words representing treasures are nothing more than their judgments. Whether there is really a treasure, and if there is, whether they can be found or not, it is still unknown. It's okay to be happy, but it's too early to be happy.
Hou Baowu calmed down and said, "You're right, now we can't be sure if there's something in it." Maybe it's just a big joke. ”
Tang Hun smiled: "This is really that possibility." Let's take a look at where these lines are drawn. ”
Calm down. A lot of the time it's very important. Tang Hun did not do this to vent Baowu's anger, he only knew that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. When a person wants something, that is when he is the weakest, and if he has no desire, he is steel.
The leather jacket had been completely disassembled, and Hou Baowu added another oil lamp to crack the secret of these lines with Tang Hun. If you want to find the treasure, you must at least know the approximate location of the treasure, otherwise how to find it, no matter how much effort you spend on the spot, you won't be able to find it.
"Horizontal lines and straight lines, not a word, what is this drawing?"
After staring at him for more than an hour, Hou Baowu was a little deflated. I watched it for so long. I really didn't find anything. It was very different from what he had imagined.
The sky is slowly brightening, whether people want it or not, it will always be bright when it should be bright, and it will be black when it should be dark.
The oil lamp had burned out, and Tang Hun and Hou Baowu had been playing with this game that was supposed to be a map but not much like a map for a day and two nights. When the sun rises again, it is the beginning of the second day.
A lot of mental exertion. made Tang Hun and Hou Baowu look very tired, and their eyes were as red as rabbits. Even the beard grows a lot faster.
"It seems that with our wisdom, I am afraid that we will not be able to crack it. Hou Baowu was reluctant to say such a thing, but he had to admit that they had found nothing in the past two nights and one day. ...,
The lines are still those lines, and no matter how much they look at them, they can't see what the map looks like.
Tang Hun pressed his forehead and said, "Maybe we should go to see His Majesty." ”
In fact, if he had a choice, Tang Hun hoped to meet Qin Ming. Let Qin Ming help him see if this is a map or not. It's a pity that Tang Hun didn't know where Qin Ming was, let alone that Qin Ming was in Greentown, and the straight-line distance from him was less than a hundred meters now.
Hou Baowu hesitated for a moment and said, "We didn't find anything, so let's just go and see His Majesty, okay?"
According to Hou Baowu's meaning, it is best to crack the treasure map and then go to see Hu Wei. It is good to say that it is a meritorious service, and Hou Baowu hopes that he can do more in this matter.
Tang Hun smiled and said, "We've been watching it for two days, do you think we will gain anything if we watch it for two more days?"
Hou Baowu didn't want to admit it, but he had to say that with their wisdom, it seemed that there was really nothing they could do about the leather jacket in front of them.
Hou Baowu also nodded, and the two wrapped up their leather jackets and headed towards the Greentown Palace. Their wisdom is not enough to crack the secret of the map, and I hope Hu Wei can have that way.
The streets are quiet in the morning, and there are hardly any people except for the vendors who sell breakfast. The cold air blew on his face, which made Hou Baowu and Tang Hun's spirits much better.
"Let's have something to eat. Hou Baowu touched his stomach, their attention has been on the map these days, and they really don't pay much attention to eating.
"It's fine. Tang Hun nodded. It seems that it is still a little early to go to the palace, and I don't know if Hu Wei has gotten up or not.
"Isn't that Chow Tai Fook? As he was walking, Hou Baowu suddenly pulled Tang Hun by the hand, Tang Hun followed Hou Baowu's gaze and saw Chow Tai Fook.
Chow Tai Fook's situation is very bad, like a dead father, the whole person is stunned, holding a bun in his hand, there is a bite to bite, as for whether he can eat what tastes, I am afraid that only he knows.
"Alas, it's a little pitiful to look at him. Hou Baowu sighed.
A few happy families and a few sorrows, Chow Tai Fook must have known by now that he will not be able to retrieve that leather jacket in his life. What is the most painful thing in the world, it is not hunger or thirst, it is to give him a hope, and take away this hope. As a simple example, you don't think you're going to have a million, but one day, you suddenly have that million. But before the joy passed, what happened, it was more terrible than never.
"Let's not go over. ”
Greentown Palace. Hu Wei opened his eyes. If he had a choice, he really didn't want to open his eyes, because as soon as he opened his eyes, he would have to worry about money.
Yesterday the golden phoenix came again. She brought Hu Wei the latest financial statements. A long and large number, every punctuation point is telling him that he has no money.
The artificial river project is a big project, and the financial resources spent every day are a huge amount, although the red leaves they sold a qiē of jewelry. Although Hu Wei has mobilized a lot of money that can be mobilized, it is not far from enough for the artificial river project. It's really not enough, it's too bad.
Money, money, money, every qiē is money, father and son are against it, and husband and wife are not reunited for it. I don't know who invented money, sometimes it's not a good thing.
"Young Master. Tang Hun and Hou Baowu came. They say there is something important to see you. Jebel hugged Hu Wei into a change of clothes. In fact, there are still landed maids by Hu Wei's side, but Jebel has long been used to doing this, as long as she is there, she will not let others do these things. ...,
"What are they doing here, they don't ask me for money. Hu Wei said half-jokingly.
Even if Tang Hun and Hou Baowu came to ask for money, it was not a very strange thing. Tang Hun and Hou Baowu are now playing the noble son. It costs money to eat, drink and have fun, no matter how much you save. It doesn't save much.
"Let them wait, I'll wash my face. "No matter what Tang Hun and the others are here for. It's impossible for Hu Wei not to see them. After changing his clothes and washing his face, Hu Wei appeared in front of Tang Hun and the others very energetically.
"Have you two had breakfast?" asked Hu Wei casually.
Tang Hun and Hou Baowu glanced at each other and shook their heads, they originally intended to come over after breakfast, but they accidentally met Chow Tai Fook, and they didn't have that mood.
Chow Tai Fook's appearance is very decadent, completely different from what he saw two days ago, Tang Hun and both of them knew that Chow Tai Fook would become like that, all because of them.
Although even if Chow Tai Fook gets the leather jacket, he may not be able to find the treasure, but it is still a hope. Hope is sometimes painful, but most of the time it is happy, people who have no hope are miserable, and people who steal the hope of others are cruel. Tang Hun and Hou Baowu couldn't have breakfast with Chow Tai Fook as if they hadn't done anything.
"Then sit down and have a bite to eat. "Hou Baowu is Hu Wei's junior, Tang Hun is not much different from Hou Baowu's age, and Hu Wei also sees him as a junior.
Hu Wei got up at a different time than Hongye and them, so the time to eat breakfast was not the same, if Tang Hun and the two didn't come, it would be how he dined, and now it's the three of them who eat.
Breakfast is made by Fuchen, although I know that Fuchen's ability is not just cooking, but Hu Wei's family is used to Fuchen's craftsmanship, and Fuchen is often the relationship between chefs. Of course, she is still different from ordinary people as a chef, she can know a lot of political affairs, and she can also express her own opinions on some things, while other chefs cannot have this qualification.
"Okay, now you can talk. "At breakfast, Hu Wei didn't let the two explain the meaning. He asked when he ran out of food.
Hou Baowu and Tang Hun glanced at each other, Tang Hun nodded to Hou Baowu, and motioned for Hou Baowu to speak. Hou Baowu was not polite to Tang Hun either, and said, "Your Majesty, Tang Hun and I have found a treasure map. ”
"Treasure map?" Hu Wei was stunned when he heard this, the Tianfeng Continent is a place where the treasure map is highly productive, Hu Wei himself has forgotten that he has been in the Tianfeng Continent for so long, how many treasure maps have he found, but the real harvest can almost be said to be none.
Hou Baowu saw that Hu Wei's reaction was not strong, and he couldn't help but hurriedly say: "Your Majesty, this must be a treasure map, Tang Hun and I finally got it." ”
"Hmm. Although Hu Wei was seventy percent sure in his heart that the so-called treasure map would not be of much significance, he couldn't bear to hit the morale of the two little ones, after all, they found that the treasure map was not hidden by themselves, but was given to him, which in itself was a kind of expression of loyalty.
Hu Wei asked, "What kind of treasure map is it?" How did you get it. ”
"We are ......"
Hou Baowu told him about his encounter with Zhou Tai Fook and the theft of the treasure map from the pawnshop. Hu Wei nodded while listening, not to mention whether the treasure map is real, even if it is true. In fact, how many valuable things are there, just because of Tang Hun and the two of them, they can be affirmed.
"You guys did a good job, and you weren't in a hurry. It's all right to plan and then act. Well, now let me see what you guys have learned. ”
After listening to the ins and outs of the treasure map, Hu Wei increased the credibility of the treasure map a little more in his heart, but it was only a few points. He didn't think there had to be any treasure there. The reason why I watched it was just because I didn't want to dampen the enthusiasm of Tang Hun and Hou Baowu. ...,
The leather jacket was opened again, and those horizontal and straight lines, Tang Hun and Hou Baowu had been watching it for a day and two nights, and they really didn't think there was anything special about it.
"Your Majesty, look at it. Hou Baowu pushed the treasure map in front of Hu Wei.
Hu Wei nodded and asked, "You two have already seen it, have you found anything?"
Hou Baowu shook his head and said, "I watched Tang Hun and I for two days. Nothing was found. It's all lines, and we can't see it. ”
Hu Wei set his eyes on the leather jacket, as Hou Baowu said, it was all lines, horizontal and straight, and some curved. To say that this is really a treasure map is a bit far-fetched.
Hu Wei glanced at it. Basically, the conclusion is that there is no conclusion, and this is a treasure map. I don't know how much effort it will take to crack it.
Just when Hu Wei was about to shake his head, Tang Hun suddenly sighed lightly.
"Discovery?" Hu Wei looked at Tang Hun.
Tang Hun was puzzled: "I don't know if I found it, I seem to remember that there was no such piece before." ”
Tang Hun pointed to a corner of the map, where there were some extra colored lines in a small area. The color of the color line is very light, and if you don't pay attention, you really can't see it clearly.
Hou Baowu looked at Tang Hun's fingers, and nodded again and again: "Yes, there were no such things before." It's weird, how could it be?"
Hu Wei touched the place with his hand and said, "It's a little wet, it seems to be ...... Sweat. ”
"Sure enough, it's a bit of material. Hu Wei said breathlessly.
Tang Hun and Hou Baowu also nodded again and again, their situation was not much better than Hu Wei. I don't know which guy made this treasure map, but the way to crack it is sweat. The three of them ran and jumped here for hours, sweating profusely, and finally got the complete map on the treasure map.
The three of them will all gather around the treasure map, which used to have only black lines, but now it has a lot of colors, and the black lines and colors are combined to form a real map and a half.
"Where could this be?" Tang Hun looked at it for a while, but couldn't tell what the painting was.
Hu Wei groaned: "This must be somewhere near Greentown, this map is reserved for Zhou Dafu, it is impossible for a person like him to be familiar with the terrain of the entire Tianfeng Continent, and he can't find it too far away." ”
Hou Baowu agreed: "I also think so, but this Greentown is not small, how can we determine where the painting is, do we have to look around?"
Hu Wei smiled, turned his head to look at Tang Hun, and said, "Tang Hun, you give me a way." ”
Tang Hun had already had an idea in his heart before this, but he didn't speak, so he said a word of worry, which scared him, could it be that Hu Wei would still read minds?
Tang Hun said: "Since it is a map, it should have the characteristics of a map, we only need to take the maps of Greentown and the surrounding areas to a pair, and we should be able to know." ”
Hou Baowu clapped his hands and said, "This method is good, why didn't I think of it before." ”
Hu Wei smiled: "Because you are not too tender, you have time to learn more from Tang Hun, and you will gain something." ”
Hou Baowu nodded embarrassedly and said: "I know, now I am already learning from Tang Hun, but there are really a lot of things to learn, and I haven't been able to learn them all for a while." ”
Hu Wei knocked on Hou Baowu's head and said, "You want to learn something in a while, and that knowledge is too cheap." You have to work harder, work harder, and make some achievements for your father!"
Jebel didn't need to be reminded of Hu Wei, he had already found all the maps on Greentown's side and opened them on the desktop one by one. According to the seats drawn on the map, it is unlikely to be in the city, and the focus of the three is all outside the city.
"Found it, it should be here. "This time, it was Hou Baowu who made the first discovery. It's not that he's observant, it's that he's lucky, and the map of that direction is right in front of him, and he can see it just by looking at it.
"Yes, this is the place. Jebe, send someone to check what is so special about this piece. (To be continued......)
