Chapter 6 Horns
Shang Fangjian took the cheetah team to this so-called Qingyan ancient town according to the requirements of zero.
Qingyan Ancient Town is a local ancient town. There is an ancient famous ethnic group living here. This famous ethnic group is the Miao ethnic group. The bloodline of all the Miao people in the world spread from this place. It is not too much to be the ancestor of the Miao ethnic group.
Shang Fangjian and his party came to the front of Qingyan Ancient Town and saw this legendary ancient town. This ancient town seems to have been around for a certain time. The ancient walls piled up are already colorful and covered with moss. There is a round river around this ancient town, which looks like a deep The moat connects the ancient town with only four ancient bridges outside, which is the only way to enter the ancient town through the ground.
Of course, such a path could not stop Shang Fangjian and others, but in order not to scare people in the local area, Shang Fangjian and others still took the unusual road and followed the old road to the bridge.
The four bridges are guarded by guards, and these guards are also dressed in a special way, which is a little different from the guards Shang Fangjian met before. The guards here are all wearing helmets made of huge silver, and there are two horn-like things decorated on them. It seems that people can't help but want people to ask about this helmet. The bottom is not heavy.
And this helmet is not for such a role, not to have the same function as the helmets of those soldiers on the battlefield. In fact, the purpose of this helmet is just to flatter a local tradition, which is a place that strictly inherits its own tradition.
Those soldiers also have a machete hanging around their waist. The machete is also very local. It is made of palm leaves and looks durable and beautiful.
When Shang Fangjian came to this bridge, he was stopped by such a soldier.
"What do you guys do?" The two soldiers stopped Shang Fangjian and asked.
Although there are not many people coming and going here, the search is very strict, but Shang Fangjian knows how to deal with it.
"In fact, we are geologists and come here to do some research. Don't worry, we are legal people." With that, the petition took out ten golden leaves from his pocket, stuffed them into the hands of the two soldiers, and then said, "Actually, I also know that you work hard to stay here, so this is all for your honor."
Seeing those golden leaves, the guards also changed their eyebrows, and then said, "Since they are engaged in research, let you in. For the sake of your gold, I will reveal a piece of news to you. In fact, there is nothing to study here."
With that, the guards were released. Shang Fangjian and others stepped on the bridge, and Bai Nan said, "Those soldiers are greedy and stupid. They are really speechless."
"It's good to have weaknesses, but I'm afraid that there are no weaknesses. That kind of dish is troublesome!" Shang Fangjian said.
When the three were walking, they heard that the first few seemed to be outsiders and talked: "I don't know what's strange about this horn slice. Every year, the emperor will ask us to study it. Really."
Hearing that what the two outsiders talked about was actually horn slices, Shang Fangjian hurriedly winked at Bai Nan, and then saw Bai Nan walking over and asked the two people, "Hey, what are the horn slices you two talking about?"
Hearing Bai Nan's abrupt question, the two were a little speechless. Fortunately, Shang Fangjian hurried up and added, "This is my sister. In fact, we are travelers. We have always heard that this place is good, so we came to this place, and we listened. It's amazing to say that there is a so-called horn slice here. I just heard you two talk about this problem, so I'm curious to know more about it.
At this time, one of the two people laughed and said, "Actually, you can't see this thing. This thing is the national treasure of this place and is only open to the messengers or leaders of other countries. If you want to come to this place to see that thing, I'm afraid it's useless."
"Oh? Such a valuable thing? I don't know what kind of magical thing it is?" Shang Fangjian asked.
The other person of those two sighed and said, "Actually, it's not a strange thing, and I don't know what this country does to preserve to make it so confidential. In fact, we study this thing every year. I heard that there is any way to prolong life, but I haven't studied it. As a result, it's just a scraping piece made of horns. Our emperor is very superstitious and has always asked us to study these, but there has been no result. I think it's just a gimmick, a gimmick to attract others.
Shang Fangjian just smiled, and then walked towards the Qingyan ancient town in front of him with Yu Chichong and Bai Nan.
"Look, this is the function of the gimmick. Many people are running for this gimmick. What a fool."
"It's because of these idiots that they are smart."
After Bai Nan followed Shang Fangjian far away, he said, "If it's really the same as what those guys said, then what did that guy do with this thing?"
Shang Fangjian smiled and said, "There is a reason why rumors come out, whether they are true or false, right? I don't think this horn slice is groundless, and that zero has existed since ancient times. I think there must be a reason for him.
With that, three people walked to the end of the bridge. Here they saw the so-called Qingyan ancient town. The Qingyan ancient town is located on a slope and built a city on that slope. Although it is not very big, it is a little famous.
Along a Qingyan path, Shang Fangjian and others came to the gate of the city. When they came to the gate, they could see several ancient words written on the gate built with Qingyan, and they could only guess that it was written Qingyan Ancient Town.
"What are we going to do next?" Bai Nan asked.
What can I do? Investigate where the horns are and see if they can be grabbed. Shang Fangjian said.
"So we have to go to a crowded place to get information, right?" Bai Nan said.
Shang Fangjian smiled and then said it right.
Soon a few people strolled around the town, because this place really couldn't find a relatively large restaurant and there were some small restaurants everywhere.
There are only two streets in this place, and the two streets are full of those shops, buying a lot of local unique things.
For example, there is a kind of smoke. The smoke is wrapped in grain beard and lotus leaves. Such a rigid person as Yu Chi Chong smoked one, which made Bai Nan feel a little strange. One of the biggest characteristics here is that there are so many silver jewelry stores here. Many people are jingling outside the store, and the people who come and go here are also comparable. More, at least compared with the scale here, the clothes of the people who come here are a little strange. It seems that most of them come from all over the world to this place for sightseeing.
"It seems that the gimmick in this place is really good, attracting so many people from all over the world?" Bai Nan said.
"Let's eat at the place called Pig Trotter Restaurant in front of us, and inquire about the news of the horn slices." Shang Fangjian said.
A few people came to the so-called pig's trotter house. The reason why this place is called the pig's trotter house is that the pig's feet sold in this place are really delicious. It is already a local sign. The delicious food is Qingyan pig's trotter, which is a must for everyone who comes to eat. Shang Fangjian is aimed at This sign ordered three pig's feet and served several bowls of local specialty frozen jelly.
These things are really delicious. Shang Fangjian and others are very happy to eat. Of course, the right thing still needs to be done. Shang Fangjian called the boss over at this time, and then ordered a few pig's feet again. By the way, he asked, "Boss, is there something called horn slices here? We used to come here. It's just to watch that thing."
"Are several envoys from other countries?" The boss asked.
Shang Fangjian shook his head and said, "No, we are ordinary tourists. We came here for this horn slice. I don't know how we can see this horn slice?"
At this time, the boss shouted at the children over there, "There are two more pig's feet here."
"In fact, this horn piece is indeed our signature, but ordinary people can't see this thing. This thing is only open to envoys and important figures of some countries. It seems that you will be disappointed when you come here."
"Can't ordinary people see this thing?" Shang Fangjian asked.
"Of course, the horn piece is hidden in a jade vault of the city owner here, and the jade vault is an indestructible treasure house. No one can open it. Only through the key can open the door to enter. It is the place where the city owner's supreme treasure is hidden. Of course, ordinary people can't You can get in."
"Thank you, boss!" Shang Fangjian smiled and then took the pig's trotter and said.
Several people soon left the place.
"What should we do now? If it's really the same as what the shopkeeper said, we may really have no way to get that horn slices. Bai Nan said.
"I don't believe that there are unbreakable doors. Let's take a look at the treasure house of the so-called city owner first." Shang Fangjian said.
Three people walked towards the castle of the city owner.
The castle of the city owner is located in the northernmost part of Qingyan Ancient Town. It is the largest local castle, made of a few local marble.
In this way, you can know that it is the castle of the local city owner. The so-called people are afraid of wealth, and pigs are afraid of being strong. Don't show off when you are rich. Shang Fangjian soon found this place.
And in order to display those treasures well, the city owner built the treasure house under his own hall, which does not require a difficult investigation. Shang Fangjian got these words through some of the people who came here to see that thing.
Taking advantage of this night, Shang Fangjian came to the castle alone and soon came to this hall. No one found that Shang Fangjian came to this place. It was a swaggering place.
Because Shang Fangjian laid a boundary in this place in advance, although it was a primary illusion, the mortals here could not resist such a basic illusion at all. Shang Fangjian swaggered to this place, and no one found it.
Shang Fangjian came to this hall and found that the secret room was really under the throne. As soon as Shang Fangjian pushed the throne away, he saw the entrance of the treasure house.
Shang Fangjian entered this entrance and came to the treasure house under the ground after a gorgeous ladder. The treasure house was blocked. The whole treasure house was a huge jade. The jade had no cracks and only a black stone gate was the only entrance.
Shang Fangjian summoned the sword and tried to break the jade treasure house, but he was surprised to find that this treasure house was really indestructible. Even if he tried his best, he could not move it at all. Shang Fangjian could only sigh at the greatness of nature. Shang Fangjian looked around this jade treasure house and found that , the only gap around this jade treasure house is only a few words. It seems that Shang Fangjian can't recognize all the words and can only recognize one of them. I don't know what this means. At present, Shang Fangjian really can't help it. Just as soon as he turned around, he saw an old man smelling towards Shang Fangjian. Shang Fangjian was shocked.
Because of the illusion of Shang Fangjian, the vision of the people here has been messed up by Shang Fangjian. Although that person can't see Shang Fangjian, he can smell something. Shang Fangjian sighed and then walked up the stairs. As Shang Fangjian looked back at an old man, he suddenly thought of this old man. Is there that key on the head?
Thinking that suddenly Shang Fangjian jumped down, he didn't want to kill him, so he suddenly knocked the old man out from behind. The old man couldn't help Shang Fangjian's beating and fainted gently. Shang Fangjian didn't want to kill people before the incident was over, so he let the old man go. The leader, but Shang Fangjian didn't find anything on his body to open the door. He only found an inspection token.
Shang Fangjian said that he was speechless and returned to the inn. Bai Nan and Yu Chichong were not asleep yet. They were still waiting for Shang Fangjian to come back. Seeing Shang Fangjian coming back, Bai Nan hurried up and asked, "Is there any result?"
Shang Fangjian shook his head and said, "No, it seems that there is only one door to enter the treasure house as rumored, but that door and that treasure house are really indestructible, and I can't break the door of that treasure house with the light of punishment."
Bai Nan smiled and said, "Hee hee, I know, so what should we do next?"
Shang Fangjian touched his chin and said, "Since this treasure house is open to some famous nobles, why don't we just be famous nobles? You guys take a rest today. I'll just find something related to such an identity!" Shang Fangjian said, and at this time, a steel man suddenly appeared under the ground.
"You don't have to look for those costumes." A long box slipped out of Zero's body.
"Zero? Why did you appear in this place?" Shang Fangjian asked.
"Actually, I had long expected that you could not break through that stone. That stone was one of the stones collected by Nuwa in those years and has an indestructible effect. I also tried to break through this stone in the past, but it was useless. At present, only by turning you into some famous families can you see that thing. In this box The faces are dressed in the official uniforms of the messengers of the Great Yin Dynasty. The three messengers have been killed by me. These are their clothes and their tokens. You can dress up as them and enter the treasure house.
"But what if it is recognized?" Bai Nan said.
"It is impossible to be recognized. This place has always been isolated from the outside. This time, the three messengers of the Great Yin Dynasty are newcomers. They will definitely not be seen by them. As long as you can enter the treasure house, remember to take out the horn slice!"
With zero, it slowly disappeared under the ground.
Shortly after Zero disappeared, Bai Nan thought about a question and said, "Zero is so powerful. It's better to find the person who keeps the key directly, and then seize the key. You can solve this matter by yourself. Why do you have to do it for us? Is it still so troublesome?"
