Travel back to ancient times to play danmei

In order to avoid idlers and facilitate patrolling, the post house was built in the relatively remote east of the city. After walking for more than ten minutes from the post house, you will arrive at the wasteland where the strange rock was discovered.

The guards in the yamen pulled hemp ropes around the strange rocks to prevent the people from approaching, and guarded there with their swords. Many people stood on the nearby hills, and they stretched their necks to watch the excitement, and some even held their hands. With the rice bowl, the noodles are sucking and slurping.

Liu Juqi looked in amazement, "City Guard, Xihua doesn't usually have much to do, why are there so many people watching?"

"Xihua has always been stable. Those of us who take the people's salaries are really ashamed." The city guard of Xihua is a bit shameless. The officials and people of Xihua City are close to each other. Even he, the highest-ranking city guard, lacks official authority.

A woman with a child in her arms saw him coming, and immediately gave him two boiled eggs with a smile, "Have you not eaten the city guard yet? These candied eggs are freshly boiled and they are delicious. Last month we The dead ghost went hunting in the mountains and broke his leg, thanks to the city guard who sent someone to find him and bring him back, otherwise our mother and I would be helpless."

The Xihua city guard was holding those two eggs to make trouble, and the prince was still watching, he didn't dare to take bribes, "Huagu, this is our duty... I don't like eggs, let's give them to my children." .”

Huagu stared at her greedy son who was biting his fingers in his arms, grabbed the two eggs and stuffed them into the clothes of Xihua City Guard, "Take it, don't be polite to me, I have nothing to give you. , don’t refuse.”

Liu Juqi almost died of laughter, the people in Xihua City are really loving, Xuan Yichen said softly, "Since it's the wishes of the people, the city guards will accept it."

The Xihua city guard sighed, holding two round eggs in his chest, and led Xuan Yichen and the others into the blockade. Only part of the huge boulder on the ground was dug out. Judging from the shape, this was just the tip of the iceberg. Sucking a few farm tools, notes were pasted on the wooden handles: The hoe is owned by Zhang San, the pickaxe is owned by Li Si...

"In the east of the city, fruit tree seedlings were planted before, but they couldn't support them. It has been deserted for a long time. These people said that there is nothing to do in the slack season, so they came to help reclaim the land and see if they can open up this land." Xihua City Guard introduced the situation. Seeing that Liu Juqi was about to get close to the strange rock, he hurriedly stopped him, "Don't touch it, my lord, be careful if you make a mistake, go down to the official."

Qian Xing also pulled Liu Juqi, he still didn't trust this city guard of Xihua, usually the honest and honest people are the most cunning, "Liu'er, don't go there, let's see what kind of moth he can make."

"The national teacher is well-informed, but do you know what kind of stone this is?" Xuan Yichen asked.

Yanling folded his hands and carefully looked at the ugly strange rock, "This old man looks like a stone mine, but it doesn't look like ordinary hematite."

"I know." Liu Juqi finally couldn't help it anymore, as soon as he heard about the strange ability to attract picks and hoes, he knew what it was. In modern times, it's called ferric oxide, which is also a magnet.

Xuan Yichen and Yanling looked at him in surprise, Liu Juqi broke free from Qian Xing's hand, picked up a rock, knocked on the boulder, touched the rock again, stood up very happy, "Iron black , the stripes are black, semi-metallic luster, brittle, no cleavage, odorless and tasteless, this is indeed magnetite!"

In high school chemistry class, the teacher showed them a lot of metal ore, and Liu Juqi even sucked pen caps on it for fun. Although the iron purity of this big guy is lower, it is undoubtedly magnetite.

"The ability to absorb iron is the characteristic of this kind of ore. It's not something ghostly or evil. Don't be afraid. The fruit seedlings planted in the past didn't grow well, probably because it was at the bottom."

The guard of Xihua City breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he knew what it was, so as not to panic the people of Xihua City, "Since it is the cause, I will ask someone to clean it up tomorrow, so that we can open up wasteland and cultivate land."

"Idiot, this black stone is the treasure of your Xihua City. Magnetite is so useful, it must be valuable." Liu Juqi waved his hand at Xuan Yichen, "Xuan Yichen, come and take a look, this is a good thing. People in our area still use magnetic therapy to treat diseases.”

Hearing this, Xuan Yichen gracefully stepped over, pulled out a pickaxe, sucked it up again, and said with a smile, "Mr. Liu is very knowledgeable, but I don't see the value of this thing."

Liu Juqi felt that there was a look in his eyes that seemed to stare at him, and he glanced into the crowd, only to find that Xiao Luan was standing there, biting his lip and looking at him in a daze and bewilderment, with complicated expressions on his face, the two people's eyes met On the way, Xiao Luan turned and left.

Liu Juqi's heart felt cold... He had exposed too much, even though Xiao Luan was careless, he began to doubt his identity... If he knew that Liu Xu was dead and he was just a fake who took over the magpie's nest, would he not Will you continue to stay by your side?

"What's wrong?" Xuan Yichen asked suspiciously, could it be that their master and servant had a conflict?

Liu Juqi lowered his head in frustration, "Xuan Yichen, let's talk about the magnetite tomorrow, I'm tired."

Xuan Yichen smiled lightly, and raised his hand to rub Liu Juqi's forehead hair in a comforting manner, "It's fine if you're tired, it's not a big deal anyway, let's leave it to the city guard for now. When I entered the city today, I saw When I went to a steamed stuffed bun shop, it said "Pearls don't change the buns", and there was a long queue, maybe the taste is good, do you want to go and try the steamed stuffed buns?"
