Emperor Renzong of the Great Song Dynasty

Zhan Zhao was the closest to him, raised his hand to catch the thing he threw, and took a closer look, it turned out to be a gold box.

The box had obviously been opened, Zhan Zhao took out the contents of the box, it turned out to be a roll of yellow silk.

The silk was very long and rolled into a thick roll.Zhan Zhao opened up a short section, seeing that there were indeed some strange symbols on it, which made people confused.

The person who jumped from upstairs straightened up, and said with lingering fear: "It's because I touched the mechanism to open the skylight beforehand, otherwise I would have fallen into the copper grid array!"

Xia Yuqi hurriedly said: "Good apprentice, are you not injured?"

Bai Yutang raised his chin: "I am careful in every step, how could I get hurt?"

Then he turned to Gongsun Ce and said, "There is such a box on the top floor of the Chongxiao Tower, and the rest are empty rooms with many traps. The gold is piled up in the main hall on the second floor. Bring your hands tomorrow, and I will lead you in... "

Before the words were finished, there was another loud noise, and thick smoke billowed out of the sky tower, and the flames suddenly burst into flames, which actually ignited a fire from the inside.

Bai Yutang said, "Uh..."

Glancing at Gongsun Ce: "Anyway, real gold is not afraid of fire, right?"

Gongsun Ce nodded with a smile, and bowed deeply to Bai Yutang: "Thank you, Young Hero Bai, for your righteous action, breaking the mechanism of the Sky Tower, and taking out the secret hidden in the top floor."

Bai Yutang knew that Xia Yuqi must have revealed his real identity to everyone, so he didn't feel shy, and returned a salute: "Don't dare, but I have offended you so much these days, please forgive Master Bao and Mr. Gongsun."

Xia Yuqi smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "You, just now someone said that they were afraid of offending you, and they will apologize to you when you come out."

Zhan Zhao hurriedly said, "Don't dare, dare not."

Bai Yutang smiled when he saw him, "So it's Nan Xia."

My own family gave him a salute first: "Nan Xia's name is like thunder, and my younger brother has heard my brother mention it several times, saying that Nan Xia is a chivalrous man with courage and righteousness. But for some reason, I rushed to be an official." guard."

Zhan Zhao smiled: "My friends in the world must have some criticisms."

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows: "Not bad! But after getting along these days, Mr. Bao is different from other officials. It's not bad for you to be his guard."

Zhan Zhao said: "Even though I die, I will not regret it."

Xia Yuqi said: "Lord Bao is indeed a good official who is in charge of the people."

He asked Bai Yutang again: "What is the copper grid array you mentioned?"

Before letting Bai Yutang break into the building, he had secretly explored the skyscrapers at night.Although the Skyscraper Tower is dangerous, with Bai Yutang's ability, as long as you bring enough tools and be careful, you can still break out.

Because of this, he felt relieved to ask Bai Yutang to enter the building alone.

After all, there is only one closed disciple, so it is ridiculous to lose it in such a place for no reason.

When he checked, he didn't find any copper grid array.

Bai Yutang said with lingering fear: "I went up to the top floor and saw this box in the middle room, so I went to get it. After taking it, I opened the box to see what was inside before I had anything to do. The result was A roll of ghostly drawn talismans. Then suddenly the floor under my feet collapsed, revealing the mechanism underneath. I climbed on the wall and saw a few words engraved on the mechanism, saying that the copper grid array never returns. Fortunately, I touched it in advance. Open the mechanism of the skylight, otherwise it will really be folded here."

Xia Yuqi sighed: "You are still too impetuous. What can't be brought out to see, and you have to be in a hurry?"

Bai Yutang chuckled: "I don't want to see, I built this building with great fanfare, and I want to hide something."

Zhan Zhao held the roll of silk and said, "It's just a roll of ghostly drawn symbols."

Gongsun Ce said, "Bring it to me."

Zhan Zhao then handed him the silk, and Gongsun Ce unfolded it section by section, looked at it for a while, and suddenly smiled: "It really is a ghostly drawn talisman, I don't understand it, it's not something important, it should be placed by the King of Xiangyang Xiaolou is playing tricks on mysteries."

Just as Bai Yutang was about to speak, Gongsun Ce pointed to the burning skyscraper: "Bai Shaoxia, in your opinion, when will the fire be extinguished?"

Bai Yutang said: "Maybe it will burn for a day and a night?"

Gongsun Ce nodded: "Then at this time tomorrow, I will ask someone to move the gold. How much gold is there?"

Bai Yutang gestured: "It's about this big, and there are six people in total. If you bring ten people here, it can be moved in a whole day."

Gongsun Ce said, "Okay."

Turning back to Zhan Zhao and the others, he said, "Since the tower is broken, we can go back and report to His Majesty. When the embankment is finished and the spring plowing begins, return to Beijing immediately."

Pointing to a few guards, he said: "You are still staying nearby, don't let the fire spread to other places. Others, go back to the government office with me to meet Master Bao."

Xia Yuqi said: "Yutang and I will also go back and plead guilty to Mr. Bao."

Holding the roll of silk, Gongsun Ce got on his horse and sat up twice before he sat still.Zhan Zhao worriedly said, "Sir, are you alright?"

Gongsun Ce said: "I didn't eat much in the morning, and I felt a little dizzy. Remember to ask the back chef to kill a chicken at night."

Zhan Zhao was skeptical, got on his horse and followed Gongsun Ce.

Gongsun Ce rode the horse slowly, his hands holding the silk trembled slightly, and his palms were covered with cold sweat.

Bao Zheng was overjoyed when he heard that the Chongxiao Tower had been broken, and he waited in front of the government office for everyone to come back.

Seeing Gongsun Ce leading the crowd slowly coming, Bao Zheng hurriedly said: "What's the matter? Then what's in the Sky Tower?"

Gongsun Ce laughed and said, "There are about 50 taels of gold in the middle of the second floor. It's a pity that the building has burned down. Let's take someone to dig for gold in the ruins tomorrow."

Bao Zheng was startled: "What's going on? No one was hurt, right?"

Gongsun Ce shook his head: "I'm fine."

Bao Zheng wanted to invite everyone to sit in the hall and ask about the situation in detail, but Gongsun Ce shook his head: "I'm not feeling well, I'm going back to my room to rest."

Xia Yuqi said: "Mr. Gongsun, what's wrong? I have a little understanding of Qi and Huang, so I can diagnose and treat you."

Gongsun Ce said, "Tired."

Xia Yuqi had nothing to say, and Gongsun Ce went back to his room regardless of what others thought of him.

Bai Yutang said, "My..."

The things he brought out from the Sky Tower are still in Gongsun Ce's hands!

Xia Yuqi faintly saw some clues, knowing that the matter was of great importance, and it was by no means something that people like them in the world could contaminate, so he secretly tugged at Bai Yutang's sleeve.

Bai Yutang understood what Master meant, so he kept silent.

Bao Zheng said worriedly: "I have never seen Mr. Gongsun like this before. I must be really tired. Mr. Gongsun has worked hard these days. Let Mr. Gongsun take a good rest."

Gongsun Ce returned to the house with the roll of yellow silk, locked the doors and windows, and pulled the curtains to cover the doors and windows, then lit an oil lamp, put it on the table, and spread out the silk.

The silk was two feet long, and there were blurry handwriting on it, like ghostly drawn symbols, making it difficult for people to see clearly.

Gongsun Ce brought over the washbasin from the corner of his room, and there happened to be some clear water in the basin.

He is a scholar from a poor family, but unlike other scholars who have been worn out for ten years, he is willing to delve into some deviant knowledge.

When he made money by writing letters for others in Wasi, he was also curious about how the magician across the street made the words appear on white paper and how he made money from the oil pan.

He made money by writing letters, but instead of buying pens, ink, paper and inkstones, he used the money to bribe the sorceress, asking her to teach him the secrets of these tricks.

Seeing that he was a scholar, the sorceress thought she would not compete with her for food, but after his hard work, she finally told him the trick.

It's funny to say, the seemingly mysterious trick is actually so simple in principle.

Gongsun Ce soaked the silk in water, and added some other things to the water.After a while, those ghost characters became readable handwriting.

The first sentence is that Zhao was ordered and flourished in Song Dynasty...

Gongsun Ce took the silk out of the water and wrung out the water on it.

It turned out to be...

Is this the old one, or is he imitating it later...

If it was the old one...

How dare the king of Xiangyang!

Sometimes Gongsun Ce hated his sharp intuition very much.

Bai Yutang brought out a roll of yellow silk from the Sky Tower, covered with ghostly symbols.Others thought it was nothing, but he had such a premonition.

However, this hunch is still correct.

He pulled down the curtain, opened the door, and said to a passing yamen servant: "Excuse me, please come over, Mr. Bao, and just say that I have something to say to him."

The yamen servant took the order and left, and Bao Zheng came after a while.

Seeing Gongsun Ce sitting in the room with a bad complexion, Bao Zheng said worriedly: "Mr. is indeed ill, why don't you hire a doctor..."

Gongsun Ce waved his hand: "My lord, do you still remember the Tianshu Fengchan in the Dazhong Xiangfu years?"

Bao Zheng didn't understand why he asked this question, but he still nodded: "I remember. The first emperor got the book from the gods and men, so he built the monastery extensively, which cost a lot of people's energy. The empress dowager has already buried the book of heaven with the imperial tomb. Why did you bring this up?"

Gongsun Ce pointed to the silk that he spread out on the table: "Look at that."

Bao Zheng probed over and saw the words on the silk, so he read: "Zhao was ordered, flourished in the Song Dynasty, and paid for Yuchong. He lives in his vessel and guards the righteousness. There are seven hundred in the world, and ninety-nine will be settled..."

He raised his head abruptly: "This is..."

Gongsun Ce said: "This is the original heavenly book."

In the first year of Dazhong Xiangfu, the first emperor suddenly woke up from his sleep and claimed that he had received a book from heaven and man.Sure enough, at the south corner of Chengtian Gate, I found a roll of yellow silk with some praises on it.It is the so-called heavenly book.

At first, this heavenly book was unreadable, and the words appeared only after doing some dojo.

After this celestial book, several more auspicious celestial books came to the world one after another.

In order to cooperate with these heavenly scriptures, the first emperor made great efforts to enshrine Zen, which not only made the imperial court a mess, but also cost the people and money, and aroused public resentment.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager Liu E was about to bury the Book of Heaven with the late Emperor immediately after the late Emperor's death.

Bao Zheng said in a low voice: "The King of Xiangyang..."

Gongsun Ce said: "Either the King of Xiangyang forged a heavenly scripture and claimed to be orthodox; or the King of Xiangyang..."

He vaguely said, "Anyway...can this thing be sent back to Bianliang?"
