There was a scar on the right side of the man's face, which added a bit of ferocity to his cold expression.However, Su Teng's attention was not on the scar, but on the man's appearance.
Su Teng: "You..."
Taking advantage of Su Teng's momentary loss of consciousness, the man in the mask drew an arrow from his back and stabbed fiercely at Su Teng's shoulder.
His arrows all have special functions, either electromagnetic or bombs. Su Teng didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly grabbed the arrow to break it off.But he didn't expect the man in the mask to let go of his hand, twisted his body, broke free from under his hand and fell down.
Su Teng thought he was dying, and was about to rush down to catch him, but saw a pair of jet glider pop out from the backpack on his back, carrying him away quickly.
Su Teng looked at the mask in his hand and was momentarily confused.But he was afraid that something might happen to Du Leding, so he rushed back immediately.
When Du Leding threw He Zhaomu to the ground, he had already equipped the arm armor.An arrow was stuck in the closet, and the red bean-sized indicator light on the arrow was flashing and blinking.
He pulled He Zhaomu and ran to the bathroom, pushed her into the bathtub, and then jumped in himself to pin her down.
After a few minutes of nervousness, He Zhaomu couldn't help but said, "Are we waiting for an explosion?"
Du Leding looked at her in blank dismay, and said awkwardly: "That arrow can be detonated remotely, I thought..."
"What are you doing?"
A cold voice came from nearby, Du Leding and He Zhaomu raised their heads from the bathtub and saw Su Teng looking down.
The posture of the two in the bathtub is ambiguous, which is easy to be misunderstood.Du Leding smiled dryly at Su Teng: "Listen to my explanation."
Su Teng didn't listen, and said coldly, "Do you need me to fill up the water for you?"
"No, it's not playing with mandarin ducks." Du Leding jumped out of the bathtub and straightened his clothes. "The masked man should be nearby, let's get out of here quickly."
Su Teng threw the mask over, Du Leding caught it, looked left and right, and said exaggeratedly: "Wow word Su, you caught his real body, quickly torture him and ask him who is behind the scenes Who is the person!"
Su Teng pinched his smug face: "You can still smile, I went home to see you were not there, and thought you had left me."
Du Leding was pinched into a duck's mouth, and his lips opened and closed together: "Where can I go, besides, didn't I ask Charlie to contact you?"
Su Teng raised his helmet, frowned and said, "Before Charlie called me, do you know how worried I was, couldn't you make it clear to Dubin, or leave me a note?"
Du Le Ding didn't think too much about it at the time, and left in a hurry just because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to make it in time.He smiled and said, "Next time I will let you see my dog reptile."
"I know you used to leave as soon as you say it, but now you have to get used to the life of having a boyfriend." Su Teng let go of his hand, calmed his face and said, "If there is anything else, you must tell me in time, otherwise... "
Du Leding laughed and said, "What else?"
Su Teng: "If we catch you, we will carry you home and lock you up."
Du Leding, a self-proclaimed master at picking locks, didn't care about such threats at all.However, the anxiety in Su Teng's eyes made him not refute for the first time. Instead, he happily promised: "Okay, let's not make an example."
"You two are together?" He Zhaomu couldn't help interrupting their flirting like no one else.
Du Leding vaguely agreed, cleared his throat and said to He Zhaomu: "Boss He, you have seen what happened today, I think the reason why Tang Xin asked me to come is not only to protect you, but also to let you Give me the things, so that those people's eyes will be diverted to me, and naturally they will not look for you again."
He Zhaomu took out the astrolabe from his pocket, and looked at it with some reluctance: "This is left to me by my adoptive father, and it is very meaningful to me."
"When the matter is resolved, I will return it to you intact." Du Leding promised seriously.
"Whatever." He Zhaomu knew that keeping the astrolabe in his hands would inevitably cause troubles, so he handed the astrolabe to Du Leding.
Du Leding put away the astrolabe carefully, and asked with great concern: "Don't stay at home for now, is there any safer place to go?"
He Zhaomu sighed: "I can go to my friend's place to stay for a while, but I have to pack my things first."
After a while, Charlie also came over, gathered around He Zhaomu and asked questions.
While He Zhaomu was packing up his clothes, Du Leding took off the arrow from the closet and showed it to Su Teng: "Nate said that this kind of arrow is very special, is it possible to find out who made it and who it was sold to?" ?”
Su Teng took the arrow and shook his head: "That's not necessary."
Du Leding was puzzled and said, "Why, it's not easy to check?"
"I have always wondered why Knight went back to the place where she swore she would never go back in her life." Su Teng broke the shaft of the arrow and threw it aside. "Until I saw the real face of the masked man just now, many Everything is explained."
Du Leding said: "Have you seen the true face of Mount Lu? Is it because your mouth is crooked and your eyes are squinting so you dare not see people?"
Charlie was also extremely curious, so he leaned over and asked, "I want to know what he looks like too!"
Su Teng was silent for a while, found a photo of Knight from the storage of his personal terminal, and scratched her right cheek with his fingertips: "If she adds a scar on her face, she will almost look exactly like the man in the mask. "
Du Leding's eyebrows arched: "You mean, he looks a lot like Knight?"
He walked to the window, paced back, and said with a slightly excited tone: "There is something I haven't told you. I met him in the ancient village of the Giant Belly Mountain."
At that time, Duledin saw a person coming out of the opposite room from behind the wall. He only saw the profile of that person and decided it was Nat. Because the two looked so similar, he thought that Nat had secretly communicated with the mercenary. payment.
A lot of things happened after that, and Knight didn't seem to have betrayed Su Teng, so Du Leding was always confused, until now he suddenly realized.
"Could they be twins?" Charlie was taken aback, "But Nate never seemed to mention having a brother."
Su Teng nodded: "Nate's life experience is also quite complicated. I'm afraid even she doesn't know it. She didn't act with us this time. Maybe she realized this, so she went back to her hometown to find the answer."
The truth of this matter would naturally come to light the moment they saw Knight, so they stopped talking. After He Zhaomu packed up his things, they sent her all the way to a friend's house to settle down.
On the occasion of parting, He Zhaomu sent them to the door with a look of hesitation.
Du Leding is very understanding: "Tang Xin is currently being held in Xibin Esso Prison. From his tone, he seems to be doing well. People like him can survive anywhere, so you don't have to worry."
"Who said I'm worried about him." He Zhaomu tucked his temples behind his ears, and smiled forcedly, "Thank you for today's matter."
"You're welcome, if you need anything...Call him." Du Leding left Su Teng's phone number behind.
He Zhaomu shook the piece of paper with the number on it and smiled, "As long as you find him, you can be found. Is that what you mean?"
Du Leding joked: "Yes, he is my secretary. Hahaha..."
The three bid farewell to He Zhaomu, and after getting on the train, Du Leding finally had time to think about the astrolabe.He recalled the structure of the previous tombs and the materials of the decorations on the astrolabe, and found several interesting places.
"The tomb of the Wushan ancient tomb is made of colored glaze, and the gems on the astrolabe that opened the silver coffin are also colored glaze," Du Leding thought while holding Charlie in his arms. The one sealed with beeswax corresponds to the key of the bronze box in the mouth of the ancient corpse, which is blood amber."
Beeswax and blood amber are both amber, essentially the same.
Su Teng: "Is there any hint in the desert underground?"
After he left the stone chamber, he was always in the mountain of corpses wrapped in black mist, and he didn't see anything like gems.
Du Leding recalled carefully, the only possibility was the night pearl that he secretly hid.He sniffed and said, "No, there are just a pile of woods and stones over there, nothing of value."
Su Teng secretly laughed in his heart, approached Du Leding and whispered, "Really?"
"Of course." Du Le Ding looked serious, "Could I still lie to you?"
Su Teng reached behind Du Leding and squeezed his waist: "You always look casual and indifferent, but when you lie, your expression tends to be too serious."
"Is there?" Du Leding laughed, "Is it interesting that you insist on exposing me?"
Su Teng: "After I remind you, you can make adjustments when you lie to me next time, and your acting skills will be improved to a higher level."
Du Leding didn't understand: "You don't mind if I lie to you?"
"I don't mind." Su Teng glanced at him, "As long as you don't sneak away, it doesn't matter if you lie to me every day."
Du Leding's waist and eyes were numb from being pinched by Su Teng, and he couldn't help but grabbed his arm: "No way, how can I lie to you so much."
Charlie raised one eye and grinned secretly. These two have a lot of tricks.
Du Leding pulled Su Teng's hand out from behind him, pinched his fingers and said in a daze, "Liu Li, Xue Po...Although I have seen the photos sent by Xia Yao, I can't judge the shape of the water drop just by the photos alone." What is the gem of…”
Du Le Ding suddenly stopped, and stood up from his seat like a needle in his buttocks.He poked there blankly, causing everyone nearby to look over.
Charlie rolled from his knees to the ground in a daze, and jumped up with an ouch to protest: "Can't you let me know in advance?"
Du Le Ding finally came back to his senses, sat down and sang in a low voice: "The glass clock, the amber is thick, and the wine in the small tank is dripping with pearl red..."
Could it be that the lyrics that Crazy Lin hummed from time to time alluded to these three astrolabes?Were the holders of the three astrolabes all people he knew?
Su Teng heard the words in his mouth, and looked over in surprise: "You can also sing this song?"
Du Leding was startled when he heard his question.He heard someone humming this song a few times before, and he never knew whether it was real or a hallucination.Su Teng asked him, is it Su Teng who sang?
"Have you heard it, or do you know how to sing?" Du Leding couldn't imagine what Su Teng would have to do with Crazy Lin.
"I've heard it a few times," Su Teng explained, "Nate can sing it occasionally, but she can't seem to remember the lyrics, and it's just those few lines over and over again."
Du Leding opened his mouth and stared at Su Teng in disbelief.Knight's voice was very low, and he was often mistaken for a man just by listening to his voice. Duledin never thought about her.
The tune of this song was composed by Crazy Lin himself. It is not a widely circulated tune. Why can Knight sing it?How many mysteries are there in this woman?
Su Teng was still waiting for his answer, so he had no choice but to say that he also listened to Knight's singing.However, the lyrics seem to be related to the three astrolabes, so I have to ask Knight carefully.
After the three of them returned home, Su Teng took out the bronze box he got from the Giant Belly Mountain and placed it on the table in the study. Du Leding held the astrolabe he just got, and his heart was full of impatient excitement, but he didn't do it for a long time. .
Su Teng felt a little funny: "Open it, why are you hesitating."
Du Leding pushed open the cover of the astrolabe with his thumb, and smiled at Su Teng: "Guess what else is there besides the jade unicorn?"
Charlie snapped: "Gold bars! Gold bricks!"
Du Leding glanced at him contemptuously: "It's about returning the gold and ingots, let's go."
In the computer image last time, there was a long strip of shadow at the bottom of the box. It was hard to tell what it was just from this shape.Su Teng thought for a while and said, "Is there a prize for guessing right?"
"I'm a poor man, what reward can I give you?" Du Leding sat down on the table, touched the surface of the bronze box and smiled, "How about drawing you a mecha stick figure?"
Su Teng: "If I guess right, you promise me one thing."
Du Leding: "What if you guess wrong?"
Su Teng is very generous: "Then you can ask whatever you want."
Du Leding felt that Su Teng's guess was unlikely, so he readily agreed: "Hey, you can have this."
Su Teng raised the corner of his mouth: "I guess it's a silk script or a bamboo slip."
Du Leding hissed, feeling a little bad, Su Teng's guess was probably correct.But it was too late for him to repent. Su Teng grabbed the astrolabe, pointed it at the keyhole and buckled it, and then opened the lid with a light push.
Su Teng took out the metal block and put it aside, took out a long roll and handed it to Du Leding: "Let's draw the prize."
Du Le Ding has seen the material of the silk, sighed and said: "I would like to admit defeat, you can ask for it."
Su Teng: "Don't worry, there will be opportunities in the future."
Du Le Ding shook his head: "You said that you are always so scheming at such a young age, you must have been born by the fox."
While he was chanting, he unfolded the silk script, on which a bunch of words were densely written.The font is flat and neat, very correct, combining the advantages of seal script and official script, with beautiful charm.
Charlie jumped onto the table excitedly, grabbed Du Leding's arm and said, "What is it written?"
There were quite a few words on it that he knew, but when they were put together, they couldn't make out what they meant.Du Leding read it briefly, raised his eyebrows and said: "That ancient corpse is really from Zhaoguo, and he is also a remarkable person."
He translated it in plain language, and the content of the silk book basically told the life of a prince of Zhao Kingdom: "This man is called Song Zhen, the youngest son of the first emperor of Zhao Kingdom, and he has two older brothers. "
Charlie urged: "And then and then!"
Du Leding pointed to the second paragraph and said: "Then there are the dates of birth and death, characters, titles, posthumous titles, etc., how good-looking he is, how brave he is, and so on. This whole paragraph is full of praise for him."
Su Teng felt something was wrong: "Personal feelings丨Is the color too heavy?"
Du Leding nodded: "There is indeed a strong personal subjective opinion. The person who wrote this text should not be the official historian in the palace who is responsible for recording events. It is more likely that he is very familiar with this student Song Zhen, and even has a close relationship with him. Deep people."
The next few paragraphs further confirm their speculation.
"After Song Zhen's second brother inherited the throne, he began to wear small shoes for him," Du Leding explained in his own language while holding a silk book like a storyteller, "In short, his second brother just despises him in various ways. Framed him, slandered him for rebellion, and degraded him as a commoner. In the end, he died in trouble."
Su Teng looked at the long speech on the silk book, and said with a smile: "Can you not oversimplify the complexity, there should be a lot of content here. According to the old system of feudal society, the first emperor passed away and the eldest son succeeded him. Why did his second brother become the king?" Emperor?"
"Hey... is this very important?" Du Le Ding took a sip of water and explained, "There was a sentence or two mentioned in the silk book about this second elder brother, who seems to be a narrow-minded and extremely jealous person. Although he did not elaborate, But it seems to imply that the second brother murdered the eldest brother to become emperor."
In the official records of the official historian, such an emperor would never be blacked out. It seems that the author of the silk script has a lot of opinions on "Second Brother".Su Teng nodded, signaling Du Leding to continue.
"It wasn't until the second elder brother's son succeeded to the throne that he rehabilitated Song Zhen." Du Leding scanned the contents of the silk manuscript again. "There is a very important person hidden in it, which seems to involve another country."
The silk script mentions a king who was subjugated, who was named "King of Sadness" by Emperor Zhaoguo, and was imprisoned in the palace.Song Zhen had a close personal relationship with him, and often went to visit him. This incident made the "second brother" very dissatisfied, and it became the fuse of the brother's quarrel.
Charlie blinked and said in confusion, "Why did Song Zhen have a personal relationship with the emperor of another country?"
"Uh," Du Le Ding read the silk script over and over again, "It seems that this king of subjugation was sent as a proton to live in Zhaoguo for a few years when he was young, and he knew all of his brothers."
There was a bit of contempt in Charlie's eyes: "Your translation skills are not very good, do you guess more than half of it?"
"Fart, that's what it says in the silk book, I didn't make it up." Du Leding flicked Charlie's head, "In short, Song Zhen seems to have experienced many things after being demoted, but the silk book didn't describe too much. It is only said that he was hit, disheartened, and unconscious."
Su Teng took the silk book and looked at it: "There is no mention of 'Southern Xinjiang' in it, so it can be seen that there is no relationship between Princess Wushan and Song Zhen."
Du Le Ding was also a little disappointed: "Maybe there is also a silk book in another bronze box, but unfortunately there is no key."
Charlie sighed: "There is another box that was taken by mercenaries."
Dule Ding nuzzled: "When will Nate and the others come back?"
"Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Su Teng had contacted Knight, and Zhou Ruxu and Snow had already been released, and they rushed back after the negotiation.
Duledin couldn't wait to see Knight and find out what had happened.After dinner, he ran to the theater to continue watching the movies he hadn't finished during the day, but in fact he was always thinking about the astrolabe.
He sorted out the clues from the beginning, and there are currently five astrolabes that can be identified, of which Liuli and Xuepo have been found, and the whereabouts of the other three are unknown.
If Crazy Lin's song really hinted at the three astrolabes, then he most likely knew who the owners were, maybe he knew each other with Xia Yao's grandfather and He Zhaomu's adoptive father.
And the person who designed and made the astrolabe may be the designer of the tomb of Emperor Zhaoguo's relatives. What secret does he want to hide, and where does he want to lead this secret?
Du Leding suddenly realized something, couldn't help but slapped his thigh regretfully.
"Is this movie that exciting?" Su Teng leaned over from the back row and lay on the back of the chair next to Du Leding.
Du Leding was startled, and tilted his head and said, "When did you come, why is there no movement at all."
Su Teng: "Sneak in secretly, of course you can't find out."
Du Leding put his arm around Su Teng's shoulder: "I forgot something."
Su Teng: "I forgot to invite me to watch a movie together."
"..." Du Leding really forgot, "Then I forgot another thing."
Su Teng: "Forgot to confess to me."
Du Leding narrowed his eyes, hooked his fingers at him, and patted the seat beside him.Su Teng got up and stepped over from the back row to sit beside him: "What's wrong?"
Du Leding said: "There were too many coincidences before, and I didn't connect them together. He Zhaomu's name was given by her adoptive father to satirize a relationship in the past, which means "chao Qin Mu Chu". Xia Yao's grandfather was named Qin Chu, Every time his grandmother mentioned it, she would use "Chao Qin Mu Chu" to explain it. Could they be talking about the same person?"
Su Teng supported his face with one hand, looked at Du Leding and said, "Do you think Boss He's adoptive father is Xia Yao's grandfather's lover?"
"It's very possible." Du Leding analyzed and speculated, "Qin Chu once went to Qixin Town, and there was a bar there; and He Zhaomu mentioned that her adoptive father used to run a bar, so maybe he was the owner of the bar in Qixin Town."
Su Teng whispered: "How do you know that there is a bar in Qixin Town?"
Du Leding said that he slipped the tongue, and quickly tried to make up for it: "Didn't Xia Yao say that?"
He still remembered Su Teng's reminder, so he didn't make a serious expression, but he was a little confused.At that time, he said that he would not lie to Su Teng every day, but after a while, he had to tell another lie.
Su Teng smiled softly: "Is there any? I, a person with a photographic memory, don't even remember it."
"The photographic memory sometimes makes mistakes." Du Leding smiled hypocritically.
Su Teng raised his eyebrows, noncommittal: "You have a mole on your left shoulder, and two scars under your right knee."
Du Leding himself didn't notice it: "What else?"
Su Teng approached and said, "There is also a mole on the inner side of the left thigh."
"Inner thighs?" Du Leding sat in the dark and looked at the bright spots reflected in Su Teng's eyes, "How did you see that place..."
Su Teng: "If you don't believe me, I'll show you."
Du Le Ding was wearing loose slacks. Su Teng touched the hem of his pants, and easily put his hand in. When passing by a soft part, his movements were very slow.
Du Le Ding's thighs stretched, and he sat up straight reflexively, a rush of hotness that was just about to move surged up from his lower abdomen.
Su Teng's wrist was pressed under him, his fingers reached between his legs, and rubbed on the root of his left thigh: "If I remember correctly, it should be here."
Du Leding was distracted, all the sensations in his body were concentrated under Su Teng's wrist, and he stiffened out of control.
Su Teng slowly withdrew his hand, and touched along the gradually expanding thing. Just when Duleding thought he was going to pull out his hand, he grabbed it.
Su Teng: "You..."
Taking advantage of Su Teng's momentary loss of consciousness, the man in the mask drew an arrow from his back and stabbed fiercely at Su Teng's shoulder.
His arrows all have special functions, either electromagnetic or bombs. Su Teng didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly grabbed the arrow to break it off.But he didn't expect the man in the mask to let go of his hand, twisted his body, broke free from under his hand and fell down.
Su Teng thought he was dying, and was about to rush down to catch him, but saw a pair of jet glider pop out from the backpack on his back, carrying him away quickly.

He pulled He Zhaomu and ran to the bathroom, pushed her into the bathtub, and then jumped in himself to pin her down.
After a few minutes of nervousness, He Zhaomu couldn't help but said, "Are we waiting for an explosion?"
Du Leding looked at her in blank dismay, and said awkwardly: "That arrow can be detonated remotely, I thought..."
"What are you doing?"
A cold voice came from nearby, Du Leding and He Zhaomu raised their heads from the bathtub and saw Su Teng looking down.
The posture of the two in the bathtub is ambiguous, which is easy to be misunderstood.Du Leding smiled dryly at Su Teng: "Listen to my explanation."
Su Teng didn't listen, and said coldly, "Do you need me to fill up the water for you?"
"No, it's not playing with mandarin ducks." Du Leding jumped out of the bathtub and straightened his clothes. "The masked man should be nearby, let's get out of here quickly."
Su Teng threw the mask over, Du Leding caught it, looked left and right, and said exaggeratedly: "Wow word Su, you caught his real body, quickly torture him and ask him who is behind the scenes Who is the person!"

Su Teng was silent for a while, found a photo of Knight from the storage of his personal terminal, and scratched her right cheek with his fingertips: "If she adds a scar on her face, she will almost look exactly like the man in the mask. "

On the occasion of parting, He Zhaomu sent them to the door with a look of hesitation.
Du Leding is very understanding: "Tang Xin is currently being held in Xibin Esso Prison. From his tone, he seems to be doing well. People like him can survive anywhere, so you don't have to worry."

Du Le Ding finally came back to his senses, sat down and sang in a low voice: "The glass clock, the amber is thick, and the wine in the small tank is dripping with pearl red..."
Could it be that the lyrics that Crazy Lin hummed from time to time alluded to these three astrolabes?Were the holders of the three astrolabes all people he knew?
Su Teng heard the words in his mouth, and looked over in surprise: "You can also sing this song?"
Du Leding was startled when he heard his question.He heard someone humming this song a few times before, and he never knew whether it was real or a hallucination.Su Teng asked him, is it Su Teng who sang?
"Have you heard it, or do you know how to sing?" Du Leding couldn't imagine what Su Teng would have to do with Crazy Lin.
"I've heard it a few times," Su Teng explained, "Nate can sing it occasionally, but she can't seem to remember the lyrics, and it's just those few lines over and over again."
Du Leding opened his mouth and stared at Su Teng in disbelief.Knight's voice was very low, and he was often mistaken for a man just by listening to his voice. Duledin never thought about her.
The tune of this song was composed by Crazy Lin himself. It is not a widely circulated tune. Why can Knight sing it?How many mysteries are there in this woman?
Su Teng was still waiting for his answer, so he had no choice but to say that he also listened to Knight's singing.However, the lyrics seem to be related to the three astrolabes, so I have to ask Knight carefully.
After the three of them returned home, Su Teng took out the bronze box he got from the Giant Belly Mountain and placed it on the table in the study. Du Leding held the astrolabe he just got, and his heart was full of impatient excitement, but he didn't do it for a long time. .
Su Teng felt a little funny: "Open it, why are you hesitating."
Du Leding pushed open the cover of the astrolabe with his thumb, and smiled at Su Teng: "Guess what else is there besides the jade unicorn?"
Charlie snapped: "Gold bars! Gold bricks!"
Du Leding glanced at him contemptuously: "It's about returning the gold and ingots, let's go."
In the computer image last time, there was a long strip of shadow at the bottom of the box. It was hard to tell what it was just from this shape.Su Teng thought for a while and said, "Is there a prize for guessing right?"
"I'm a poor man, what reward can I give you?" Du Leding sat down on the table, touched the surface of the bronze box and smiled, "How about drawing you a mecha stick figure?"
Su Teng: "If I guess right, you promise me one thing."
Du Leding: "What if you guess wrong?"
Su Teng is very generous: "Then you can ask whatever you want."
Du Leding felt that Su Teng's guess was unlikely, so he readily agreed: "Hey, you can have this."
Su Teng raised the corner of his mouth: "I guess it's a silk script or a bamboo slip."
Du Leding hissed, feeling a little bad, Su Teng's guess was probably correct.But it was too late for him to repent. Su Teng grabbed the astrolabe, pointed it at the keyhole and buckled it, and then opened the lid with a light push.
Su Teng took out the metal block and put it aside, took out a long roll and handed it to Du Leding: "Let's draw the prize."
Du Le Ding has seen the material of the silk, sighed and said: "I would like to admit defeat, you can ask for it."
Su Teng: "Don't worry, there will be opportunities in the future."
Du Le Ding shook his head: "You said that you are always so scheming at such a young age, you must have been born by the fox."
While he was chanting, he unfolded the silk script, on which a bunch of words were densely written.The font is flat and neat, very correct, combining the advantages of seal script and official script, with beautiful charm.
Charlie jumped onto the table excitedly, grabbed Du Leding's arm and said, "What is it written?"
There were quite a few words on it that he knew, but when they were put together, they couldn't make out what they meant.Du Leding read it briefly, raised his eyebrows and said: "That ancient corpse is really from Zhaoguo, and he is also a remarkable person."
He translated it in plain language, and the content of the silk book basically told the life of a prince of Zhao Kingdom: "This man is called Song Zhen, the youngest son of the first emperor of Zhao Kingdom, and he has two older brothers. "
Charlie urged: "And then and then!"
Du Leding pointed to the second paragraph and said: "Then there are the dates of birth and death, characters, titles, posthumous titles, etc., how good-looking he is, how brave he is, and so on. This whole paragraph is full of praise for him."
Su Teng felt something was wrong: "Personal feelings丨Is the color too heavy?"
Du Leding nodded: "There is indeed a strong personal subjective opinion. The person who wrote this text should not be the official historian in the palace who is responsible for recording events. It is more likely that he is very familiar with this student Song Zhen, and even has a close relationship with him. Deep people."
The next few paragraphs further confirm their speculation.
"After Song Zhen's second brother inherited the throne, he began to wear small shoes for him," Du Leding explained in his own language while holding a silk book like a storyteller, "In short, his second brother just despises him in various ways. Framed him, slandered him for rebellion, and degraded him as a commoner. In the end, he died in trouble."
Su Teng looked at the long speech on the silk book, and said with a smile: "Can you not oversimplify the complexity, there should be a lot of content here. According to the old system of feudal society, the first emperor passed away and the eldest son succeeded him. Why did his second brother become the king?" Emperor?"
"Hey... is this very important?" Du Le Ding took a sip of water and explained, "There was a sentence or two mentioned in the silk book about this second elder brother, who seems to be a narrow-minded and extremely jealous person. Although he did not elaborate, But it seems to imply that the second brother murdered the eldest brother to become emperor."
In the official records of the official historian, such an emperor would never be blacked out. It seems that the author of the silk script has a lot of opinions on "Second Brother".Su Teng nodded, signaling Du Leding to continue.
"It wasn't until the second elder brother's son succeeded to the throne that he rehabilitated Song Zhen." Du Leding scanned the contents of the silk manuscript again. "There is a very important person hidden in it, which seems to involve another country."
The silk script mentions a king who was subjugated, who was named "King of Sadness" by Emperor Zhaoguo, and was imprisoned in the palace.Song Zhen had a close personal relationship with him, and often went to visit him. This incident made the "second brother" very dissatisfied, and it became the fuse of the brother's quarrel.
Charlie blinked and said in confusion, "Why did Song Zhen have a personal relationship with the emperor of another country?"
"Uh," Du Le Ding read the silk script over and over again, "It seems that this king of subjugation was sent as a proton to live in Zhaoguo for a few years when he was young, and he knew all of his brothers."
There was a bit of contempt in Charlie's eyes: "Your translation skills are not very good, do you guess more than half of it?"
"Fart, that's what it says in the silk book, I didn't make it up." Du Leding flicked Charlie's head, "In short, Song Zhen seems to have experienced many things after being demoted, but the silk book didn't describe too much. It is only said that he was hit, disheartened, and unconscious."
Su Teng took the silk book and looked at it: "There is no mention of 'Southern Xinjiang' in it, so it can be seen that there is no relationship between Princess Wushan and Song Zhen."
Du Le Ding was also a little disappointed: "Maybe there is also a silk book in another bronze box, but unfortunately there is no key."
Charlie sighed: "There is another box that was taken by mercenaries."
Dule Ding nuzzled: "When will Nate and the others come back?"
"Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Su Teng had contacted Knight, and Zhou Ruxu and Snow had already been released, and they rushed back after the negotiation.
Duledin couldn't wait to see Knight and find out what had happened.After dinner, he ran to the theater to continue watching the movies he hadn't finished during the day, but in fact he was always thinking about the astrolabe.
He sorted out the clues from the beginning, and there are currently five astrolabes that can be identified, of which Liuli and Xuepo have been found, and the whereabouts of the other three are unknown.
If Crazy Lin's song really hinted at the three astrolabes, then he most likely knew who the owners were, maybe he knew each other with Xia Yao's grandfather and He Zhaomu's adoptive father.
And the person who designed and made the astrolabe may be the designer of the tomb of Emperor Zhaoguo's relatives. What secret does he want to hide, and where does he want to lead this secret?
Du Leding suddenly realized something, couldn't help but slapped his thigh regretfully.
"Is this movie that exciting?" Su Teng leaned over from the back row and lay on the back of the chair next to Du Leding.
Du Leding was startled, and tilted his head and said, "When did you come, why is there no movement at all."
Su Teng: "Sneak in secretly, of course you can't find out."
Du Leding put his arm around Su Teng's shoulder: "I forgot something."
Su Teng: "I forgot to invite me to watch a movie together."
"..." Du Leding really forgot, "Then I forgot another thing."
Su Teng: "Forgot to confess to me."
Du Leding narrowed his eyes, hooked his fingers at him, and patted the seat beside him.Su Teng got up and stepped over from the back row to sit beside him: "What's wrong?"
Du Leding said: "There were too many coincidences before, and I didn't connect them together. He Zhaomu's name was given by her adoptive father to satirize a relationship in the past, which means "chao Qin Mu Chu". Xia Yao's grandfather was named Qin Chu, Every time his grandmother mentioned it, she would use "Chao Qin Mu Chu" to explain it. Could they be talking about the same person?"
Su Teng supported his face with one hand, looked at Du Leding and said, "Do you think Boss He's adoptive father is Xia Yao's grandfather's lover?"
"It's very possible." Du Leding analyzed and speculated, "Qin Chu once went to Qixin Town, and there was a bar there; and He Zhaomu mentioned that her adoptive father used to run a bar, so maybe he was the owner of the bar in Qixin Town."
Su Teng whispered: "How do you know that there is a bar in Qixin Town?"
Du Leding said that he slipped the tongue, and quickly tried to make up for it: "Didn't Xia Yao say that?"
He still remembered Su Teng's reminder, so he didn't make a serious expression, but he was a little confused.At that time, he said that he would not lie to Su Teng every day, but after a while, he had to tell another lie.
Su Teng smiled softly: "Is there any? I, a person with a photographic memory, don't even remember it."
"The photographic memory sometimes makes mistakes." Du Leding smiled hypocritically.
Su Teng raised his eyebrows, noncommittal: "You have a mole on your left shoulder, and two scars under your right knee."
Du Leding himself didn't notice it: "What else?"
Su Teng approached and said, "There is also a mole on the inner side of the left thigh."
"Inner thighs?" Du Leding sat in the dark and looked at the bright spots reflected in Su Teng's eyes, "How did you see that place..."
Su Teng: "If you don't believe me, I'll show you."
Du Le Ding was wearing loose slacks. Su Teng touched the hem of his pants, and easily put his hand in. When passing by a soft part, his movements were very slow.
Du Le Ding's thighs stretched, and he sat up straight reflexively, a rush of hotness that was just about to move surged up from his lower abdomen.
Su Teng's wrist was pressed under him, his fingers reached between his legs, and rubbed on the root of his left thigh: "If I remember correctly, it should be here."
Du Leding was distracted, all the sensations in his body were concentrated under Su Teng's wrist, and he stiffened out of control.
Su Teng slowly withdrew his hand, and touched along the gradually expanding thing. Just when Duleding thought he was going to pull out his hand, he grabbed it.
