Chapter 3: Recalling

Lord Luo snorted coldly and said, "It's not me, I just go to pick up Senior Kunlun according to the master's wishes. I don't know that you have been brought here." Then he seemed unwilling to bother me, so he turned to the maid and said, "Where have Xie Er and Chang Wu gone? The master will summon him later."

The maid replied nervously: "I heard that it seemed that the second master was on a mission last night and was stabbed by... by this girl. The fifth master was taking care of him." While saying that, he glanced at me.

Lord Luo looked at me quietly when he heard this, his eyes swept from top to bottom. He was not clearly seen with his veil yesterday. Now her eyes hidden under the mask are as quiet as a deep pool, calm and deep as if they were afraid to look directly. After hearing the maid's answer, it seemed that the woman knew nothing about what happened last night. When she thought about it, she said rudely, and a hint of guilt flashed through her heart. But she took Kunlun with her own hands, so I was still full of hostility towards her.

It was obvious that I felt guilty about the mistakes of her. She didn't say much, but turned around and walked towards the depths of the courtyard. Her white brocade robe floated like a wisp of cold and lonely smoke, which looked particularly eye-catching in the dark green.

The maid looked at the woman's back with a little fear on her face and was mixed with some envy. Then she led me through the long pavilion and walked towards the hall. I seized the opportunity to inquire about some news from her and knew that her name was Shaojing and she was the maid here. She was also in charge of some trivial matters in the mansion, and she couldn't stand loneliness and was very relaxed.

From Shaojing, I learned that Lord Luo was named Luo Shen, and he was a popular man in front of the owner of the house. I also stayed in the palace for a while ten years ago, but I have never heard of the prince of the King. Could it be that he was the king who was named later?

With mixed thoughts, I walked to a magnificent main hall without realizing it. I saw that the momentum was the tallest in the house. There were four big words "The ancient sound of Liushao". Shao Jing smiled and said, "Miss Master, it's here, I'm waiting for the girl here."

I took a deep breath and went up the steps. Even if I saw a dragon's and tiger's den, since I got here, I would still have to make a breakthrough.

I was only shocked by the scene inside when I walked to the door. I saw four different people sitting on the left and right sides of the gilded yellow hall. There was a man in a mysterious clothes standing on the left side of the Panlong Pillar. He had a familiar figure and a cold face. It was the short one who sneaked into me with paper control technique last night.

The people in the room swept towards me at this time, as if I was the trapped beast who accidentally broke into the cage, and there was a stream of pressure swarming invisibly. In the middle of the hall, a middle-aged man in a black and red brocade robe sat upright, with white face and beards and a gentle atmosphere of books. Looking at his eyebrows and eyes carefully, there was a little bit of terrifying yin mixed in it, and it must be the king.

The woman in white, called Luo Shen, stood beside him with a long body, and the jade pecking mask faintly shines like a jade statue.

The people I have come into contact with in the past ten years can be counted with my fingers. At this time, I became the target of public criticism, and I couldn't help but feel a little panicked and embarrassed. What was the intention of this king calling me to this place full of heroes?

I stood there with my lips pursed and didn't say anything. The guests present began to whisper and talk.

The Lord Zun turned his head and said something to Luoshen. Luoshen nodded, walked straight to me, and then led me to sit next to the shorter one called Changwu, and retreated back to the Lord Zun.

I complained in my heart that this king was so desperate that he arranged me next to this short man with a fierce aura. Because I hurt his brother, Chang Wu formed a big bond with me. When he saw me coming, his eyes were covered in frost and dark, which made me feel scared.

"It is Xiao Wang's honor to come today. I hope that all heroes will not be surprised by the reception. I will respect you first." The king picked up the wine glass and drank it all. His words were extremely humble, and he did not have the attitude of a vassal king. Everyone present was frightened and stood up and raised their glasses to return the gift.

One of the simple-dressed Taoists carried a long sword on their back, and seemed to be their leader. He bent down and bowed, "What the prince said? This is killing us. Thanks to the prince, he did not dislike us, the rough people who rely on digging soil to make a living, and he was recruited into the mansion. If the prince has any instructions, just say it. We will only follow the leader of the prince!"

Digging soil for dinner? I frowned slightly and looked at the four sitting people carefully.

The old Taoist Fu Jian didn't look like he was staying in the sight waiting for others to offer incense. His face was dusty and his eyes flashed with bright eyes. He was definitely not an ordinary person. And next to him was a young man dressed in a very delicate manner, with a handsome face and a faint smile on his lips. Seeing that I was looking at him, he actually blinked at me, and I was so angry that I glared back, he gave up.

The remaining two people looked quite ordinary, but the four people all exuded a hint of yin and coolness. Generally, those who fought for a tide would have a faint smell of earth and would have a strong smell. The eyebrow pattern would even retain the yin energy of the ancient tomb. These four people said that they were digging soil for dinner, and they were probably eight out of ten. Ninety were the tomb robbers.

The king grabbed these four tomb robbers and took Kunlun away. When he was about to come, he asked me to sit here and listen to their hypocritical greetings. What medicine is sold in the gourd?

"I have something to see today for everyone." After the king said, the Lord of the Lord held a silk handkerchief in his hand, and first presented it to the old Taoist. After the old Taoist looked at it for a while, his face suddenly changed and he shouted: "This... this is!" The other three people came over to take a closer look, and their faces were full of surprise.

I was curious about what that was. Luo Shen turned around and saw that there was desire on my face. He walked over and took out another silk squid and handed it to me. He never retreated and stood upright in front of me. Under the mask, I couldn't guess what her expression was like, but my whole body seemed to be spying on by her deep eyes, and there was no freedom at all.

I simply ignored her and looked at the mysterious object lying in the silk scutcheon. I saw that it was a small piece of gold foil, quietly exuding the heaviness and vastness of history. On the one hand, it was a very exquisite ancient beast pattern carved with dragons and phoenixes. On the gold foil in my hand, there was a unicorn, a golden dragon, and another golden phoenix missing its right body. It was surrounded by auspicious clouds in the middle, and even the feather scales on the divine beast's body could be clearly identified.

The gold foil is damaged by the humid and moist energy of the tomb, but it does not affect the breathtaking artistic value of the small piece of gold foil. It is engraved with several incomplete words, which can be vaguely identified as fragments from the Warring States Period.

"Do you see any clues?" King Zun smiled, his eyes seemed to float towards me as he spoke. I saw that he was a little embarrassed and felt very uncomfortable.

The old Taoist bowed and said, "Return to the prince, judging from the seal characters engraved on the gold foil, looking back at the dynasty, this gold foil should be owned by the Warring States Period, but the direction of the exquisitely carved patterned knife technique is vaguely the characteristic of the Han Dynasty, which makes me really puzzled."

I also see this point. In theory, if the Han Dynasty's goldware was engraved with Warring States seal script, it was unreasonable to reason. In the past, dynasties have changed, rulers paid great attention to gold, silver and jadeware, and they must represent the characteristics of their dynasty, to conceal future generations, and to rule for thousands of years. However, there is another possibility that the Han Dynasty craftsmen carved the patterns of gold, dragons, jade and phoenixes on the goldware carved with Warring States seal script. This is unknown.

"This fragment was found by my subordinate on a mountain in Botian County, so I presented it to me. I played with these pieces of gold foil every night, and I loved it very much, and it also gave rise to many doubts. The seal characters are incomplete. If they can be complete in the future, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing? I hope that several heroes will go there for me to investigate and solve my expectations."

This king said something very beautifully, without any leakage. Those who fought back immediately understood it and bowed repeatedly to say yes.

I sneered in my heart, what a respectful king! Since the gold foil was unearthed in Botian County, looking at his calm and composed attitude, I thought that the tomb on the mountain must be fat and fat. However, the tomb has always been despised by the people, and he was not easy to send troops to take action by himself. Besides, the tomb is dangerous and the future is unpredictable, so I threw the big fat fish to the four people who made a living by fighting. I just waited for the fat fish to be prepared and served on the table. With the value of the gold foil, those who fought against the fight may have been ready to move.
