Chapter 025 The Ancient Sheepskin
It was a map. Although everything on the entire scroll was expressed with a simple and almost monotonous line, the mountains and rivers outlined on it gave people an extremely harmonious feeling, and could even be directly imagined.
It is hard to believe what kind of picture is drawn on the scroll, but it gives people such a vivid and three-dimensional feeling. On the entire map, there are several points marked with circles, one of which
The edges marked with two concentric circles are also marked with text, but those are obviously not Chinese characters.
"Yehenala City!" Liu Tieyi's eyes seemed to be deeply pierced into the ancient sheepskin scroll. When his eyes passed by the marked text, his eyes suddenly opened and he blurted out.
"Yehenala City?" When we heard Liu Tieyi's words, Qian Shanshan and I were shocked, and at the same time we repeated it like parrots.
"Yes, these words are Manchu, which means Yehenala City!" Liu Tieyi continued while nodding, but his eyes never moved away from the map.
Yehenala City is located in the south of Siping City, Jilin Province. In the early 16th century (Zhengde period), Zhu Kongge, the leader of the Yehe tribe, led his people to move south and settled on the north bank of the Yehe River to establish the Yehe Kingdom. Zhu Kongge's grandson Qing Jianu, Yang
Jinu succeeded his ancestor Yu Lie, leaped on his horse and whipped his whip, opened up new territories and was very prosperous for a while.
In 1573, the two men built two cities on the hills on both sides of the Yehe River in strategic locations. Qingjianu lived in the west city, and Yangjinu lived in the east city. Both brothers were called Beile (chief), and they dominated the "Hulun"
"Four Tribes". At that time, the activity scope of the Yehe Tribe "was mostly in Fengtianjie, adjacent to Hada, in the west to the edge gate of Weiyuanbao, in the north adjacent to Horqin and Golluos, and in the east to the Yitong River." There is a history of "expanding territory."
It is said that when the sound of the army reaches a wider area, the surrounding areas will become more fearful and subdued."
The above content about Yehenala City is what I have seen from some information before. In my impression, Yehenala City can be called the birthplace of Yehenala clan, but I never thought of it.
The ancient sheepskin scroll obtained from Zhaobi Wall actually mentioned the city of Yehenala.
Qian Shan on the side also looked slightly surprised. He knew much more about the ancient city of Yehe than I did. After listening to what I said, he seemed to remember something, and then asked Liu Tieyi: "Brother Liu, what is Yehe?"
Isn’t the city of Lhasa destroyed?”
"Yes, in 1619 Nurhachi personally conquered Yehe. The people of Yehe were outnumbered. The two cities in the east and west were destroyed in the war. The country of Yehe was destroyed. All the people were incorporated into the Eight Banners of the Manchu people and moved to other places. The two ancient cities of Yehe were moved from
It only lasted 46 years from the time it was built until it was destroyed." After hearing Qian Shan's words, Liu Tieyi slowly raised his head and said softly.
Immediately, he looked at Qian Shan again, as if explaining to Qian Shan the doubts in his heart at this time, and continued, "Maybe because of this, this secret has never been discovered. Maybe because of this,
The answers we are looking for may have been preserved to this day!"
Although there is almost no difference between the first half of Liu Tieyi's words and the second half, I, Qian Shan and Shen Jiuer all understand what he is referring to. Sometimes, destruction may bury everything.
Sometimes destruction also represents a kind of eternity.
Just as I was thinking about Liu Tieyi's endless philosophical words, Qian Shan suddenly seemed to think of something. While carefully looking at the parchment on the table, he raised his hand and said to several of us: "Wait!
"
I was also stunned, and hurriedly came to the table: "Third brother, what are you doing?"
Liu Tieyi and Shen Jiuer also approached Qian Shan curiously, but Qian Shan seemed to be immersed in some kind of scene, and his hands kept groping on the sheepskin scroll.
After a full two minutes, Qian Shan finally straightened up, picked up the sheepskin scroll and handed it to several of us: "There is something strange about this scroll. Take a closer look. The writing in this place seems to have been added later!"
"
A few of us hurriedly finished the scroll and carefully looked at the place mentioned by Qian Shan. It was nowhere else but the place where the words Yehenala City were written in Manchu script.
I didn't notice anything unusual about this place before, but now after listening to Qian Shan's words, and after carefully comparing it with other pictures of rivers and mountains, I found that the ink marks on the mountains and rivers faintly showed a kind of fine cracks.
, just like the kind of cracks that appear after the ink dries, but the ink written with the words Yehenala City is much more delicate, and the cracks are basically invisible. It is obvious that these two places should be the two places used.
A different kind of ink.
This subtle difference is not noticeable under normal circumstances. However, due to the hundreds of years that the entire scroll has experienced, the original ink marks have also undergone various changes. Older ink marks are more likely to appear like this.
There are subtle cracks, and those that are older or have more advanced ink production techniques will appear more delicate.
"Is this scroll fake?" I couldn't help but feel nervous. If the scroll we worked so hard to obtain was fake, then all our previous efforts would be in vain.
Qian Shan shook his head: "I'm not sure yet. Although the handwriting of Yehenala City was added later, the age of the two ink marks may be more than two hundred years apart. If it weren't for the age of the sheepskin scroll, the original
I’m afraid I wouldn’t have discovered this detail when Henara City was established!”
"Is it possible that the person who added these words was afraid that the person who got the map would not be able to accurately determine the location? But if the person who wrote the words knew where it was on the map, why didn't he go find it himself instead of leaving such a reminder?
Or is this itself a trap?" At this time, Liu Tieyi's brows were also furrowed, and the matter was obviously completely beyond his expectation.
"Brother Liu, what should we do now?" Shen Jiuer, who had been silent next to him, asked Liu Tieyi softly.
"Go and inform Lao Hong to prepare first! No matter what is hidden behind this, we can't be sure if we don't go there." After Liu Tieyi thought for a moment, he said to Shen Jiu'er.
After hearing Liu Tieyi's words, Shen Jiuer nodded, glanced at me and Qian Shan, and walked out of the room.
As he spoke, Liu Tieyi carefully rolled up the ancient sheepskin scroll, put it back into the bronze mailbox and handed it to me: "You and Shanzi take the mailbox and map. In addition, I just asked Jiu'er to prepare other things."
After all the preparations have been made, you should go and get ready. Without further ado, you should set off as soon as possible! I will report the situation to Bureau Shen again, and I still have to deal with the mummy matter here.
, and then I will rush over to meet you."
"Us?!" Qian Shan asked Liu Tieyi with some confusion.
"Of course it's you and Jiu'er and the others. Don't you two think that you can do it all with your three-legged cat skills? It's much more convenient to have Jiu'er help you with many things!" Liu Tieyi smiled slightly at him. Qian Shan said.
"Why
"Hey, Brother Liu, it's not that I don't want to take Jiu'er with me, and it's not that you don't understand, you said she..." After hearing Liu Tieyi's words, an extremely complicated look appeared on Qian Shan's face, even a little panicked. said.
"What's wrong with me?" Before Qian Shan could finish his sentence, Shen Jiuer's voice sounded again.
Qian Shan's expression suddenly changed, and a very flattering smile suddenly appeared on his plump face and he said to Shen Jiu'er: "No, it's nothing, sister Jiu'er, your third brother, I'm just worried that you have worked too hard on this journey! "
Looking at Qian Shan's almost vulgar expression, Shen Jiuer snorted coldly: "Humph! You don't need to worry about this girl's affairs!",
Looking at the scene between Shen Jiu'er and Qian Shan, Liu Tieyi laughed, reached out and tapped Shen Jiu'er on the forehead, and said in a slightly serious tone: "Haha, Jiu'er, a girl's family must have a girl's family. Your third brother is so scared. Your old uncle told you when he left, listen to me in everything, otherwise I will send you back to Beijing.",
"Hey, Brother Liu, I know!" Shen Jiuer responded to Liu Tieyi's words, while glaring at Qian Shan who looked fawning and me who looked helpless.
"Third brother, you and Miss Jiu'er should be cousins, right? Why do you see her like a mouse seeing a cat? Also, who is the three monkeys she called before?"
Coming out of Liu Tieyi's room, I set my sights on Qian Shan. In fact, from the moment Qian Shan told me that the man in black dressed by Shen Jiu'er was one of his own, I already knew what Shen Jiu'er was shouting. There is no doubt that the Three Monkeys must be Qian Shan, but at this moment, the more I look at Qian Shan's fat face, the more I can't connect him with the Three Monkeys.
"Grandma, for seven dollars, you can also bury your third brother, right? It's not like you don't know that your third brother and I are also a handsome and beautiful young man. Then you think of the three skinny guys back then who have become the three fat guys in the blink of an eye. Time flies. What's wrong with the knife?" Qian Shan said with a shameless look on his face.
"Hey, third brother, we are young. Ever since I can remember, I don't seem to remember that you have ever lost weight. I'm afraid you didn't get the nickname "Three Monkeys" for a good reason!", facing Qian Shan. This kind of shamelessness can't save him any face at all. In the words of Chairman Mao, remember to beat the dog in the water with a stick.
Sure enough, after a series of blows and questioning, he told me the truth. Everything was not far from what I guessed. It was all the shadow of childhood. Although Qian Shan was a few years older than Shen Jiu'er, Since childhood, Qianshan has suffered a lot from Shen Jiuer's little fists. To put it bluntly, it's just a child's slapstick. The nickname "Three Monkeys" is a kind of ridicule and ridicule to Little Fatty Three.
Later, Shen Jiuer went abroad with his parents, and the two never met again. However, after the previous confrontation, the shadow of childhood erupted again in Qian Shan's originally fragile mind.
"Oh, her current skills are really not easy. We have to be well prepared to avoid being looked down upon by her again along the way!"
I couldn't help but patted Qian Shan's shoulder sympathetically and said slowly, but I was really impressed by Shen Jiuer's skills. I don't know if it was because of her talent. From my experience playing against her, From the looks of it, the training she received was obviously much more professional than Qian Shan's.
