533 One hundred and twenty jade slips

Twelve stone tripods took out one hundred and twenty volumes of jade slips.

These jade slips were well preserved and the inscriptions on them were clearly visible, but Xu Yue and Xu Da did not recognize any of the characters on them.

Looking at the shape of the characters, it looks like oracle bone inscriptions, also called cuneiform.

If you are an expert in writing, you can recognize the meaning of these words from the rules of writing.

It's a pity that two time travelers, Xu Yue and Xu Da, one is not a native and the other does not understand ancient writing, so they can only see and be blinded.

But whether you understand it or not, these one hundred and twenty volumes of jade slips are extremely precious.

Xu Yue held these jade slips excitedly. Even though she couldn't understand them, she could already imagine the beautiful scene of the technology tree full of red energy fruits.

There was no time to make a copy. Even if she was greedy for the energy fruit, Xu Yue couldn't bear to hand it over to the technology tree like this.

Xu Yue took out a box that had previously contained gold cakes from the research room. The father and daughter repackaged the one hundred and twenty jade slips, carefully put them into the box, and put them away for the time being.

After the current matter is resolved, find some time to copy down the contents of the jade slip.

The father and son did not recognize the writing on it, but there must be others who did.

People like Sima Yi and Zhao Bei have good family conditions and have read a lot of books, so they might be able to study something.

Xu Yue never despises the redundancy of culture. The world should be full of flowers.

Even if the jade slips record the boring life of the tomb owner, it will help people in this world understand the customs and customs of thousands of years ago.

The real tomb contains only the jade slips in the twelve tripods on the altar and the coffin of the tomb owner.

Xu Da wanted to move, but Xu Yue stopped him.

"It's getting late, let's go back, my brother may have come back." Xu Yue said.

Xu Da looked at the red paint on the wooden coffin that had all weathered and fallen off. He sighed with regret, nodded, turned around, and said, "Let's go."

The father and daughter walked down the stone steps back to the fake tomb. Xu Da turned the mechanism and restored the sarcophagus in the tomb to its original state.

As for the golden crown in the sarcophagus, he took it away conveniently to benefit the tomb owner and the people all over the world.

The tomb doors were closed one after another, and finally the father and daughter retreated outside the corridor and sealed the entrance to give the owner of the tomb some peace.

The twins had woken up, and Zhao Jian was taking them to watch the strange stalactites in the cave. When Xu Yue and his daughter came back, the five of them returned the same way and walked out of Moon Mountain.

When it was dark, I didn't realize how wide the river was. Now that the sky was bright, the true appearance of the river was revealed. Looking at the half of a rock that stopped in the middle of the river last night, Zhao Jian admired himself for being able to jump so far.

The return trip was not in such a hurry, so everyone went down the river, finally found a narrow place, crossed the river and returned to the foot of the mountain.

No one came here at all, so they took out the bicycles hidden in the grass, and the five of them ate some dry food to replenish their strength, and rushed back to Mr. Wu's house at ten o'clock in the evening.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, Xu Yue and the three adults felt that the atmosphere in the courtyard was not right.

Xu Da cautiously raised his hand, signaling Xu Yue and the two little ones not to go in yet. Just as he was about to go in first to investigate, Kingfisher rushed out first with a kitchen knife in his hand.

Seeing that it was Xu Yue and others coming back, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yue stepped forward and asked, "What happened? Are you okay? Is my brother back?"

Kingfisher replied: "I'm fine. Chief, you are back. General Xu just came back not long ago. We are waiting for you to come back to deal with those traitors!"

What does this mean?

What traitor?

Why is Kingfisher looking at the knife in a panic?

With doubts in mind, Xu Yue and the others led the twins into the door. As soon as they arrived in the front yard, they saw the eight officers and soldiers from Yi County tied up with weed rags stuffed in their mouths, huddled in the corner of the yard in embarrassment.

The officers and soldiers from Hejian who followed Zhao Jian were lined up in front of the hall with sad faces, their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and they didn't know who had been beaten.

When they saw Zhao Jian, they hurriedly looked at Zhao Jian asking for help.

Kingfisher led Xu Yue and others into the hall. He snorted "hum" as he passed by these officers and soldiers.

Xu Dalang was sitting in the hall. It looked like he had just come back. He was eating a bowl of hot meat porridge and munching on grilled naan.

Seeing Xu Yue come in, Xu Dalang knew what she wanted to ask and raised his chin directly towards the left side of the hall.

Xu Yue turned her head and looked around. The items that were originally neatly arranged were now obviously scattered.

But it can be seen that it has been sorted out, and it must have been messy originally.

Wen Qing and others drove an ox cart with Boss Wu to Wubao to collect grain and buy weapons. Naturally, it was not convenient to take all the luggage and belongings with them.

Tents, sleeping bags, and some clothes and daily necessities were left in the Wu family yard, and pots and pans were piled on the two low tables on the left side of the hall.

These things are nothing here in Xu Jiajun, but even iron tools are rarely seen in the outside world. The iron pots, kitchen knives, white porcelain bowls, and the leftover can of sugar and fine salt in the luggage pile are all...

A valuable thing.

Kingfisher said that after Xu Yue and others left last night, Kingfisher and the Wu family boy were the only two people left in the house guarding the luggage. Somehow, the remaining officers and soldiers actually got interested and sneaked over to rummage around.

The kingfisher caught him red-handed.

Seeing that their intentions were exposed, the officers and soldiers actually stopped covering up. Some of them rushed forward and tried to pull away from the kingfisher to grab it. If they wanted to grab it, they ran away.

The only blame is that Xu Jiajun gave money too readily. They paid for a month's food in advance before the work was done. Now that they have all the things in their own hands, and the Xu family is not around, they want to take away the luggage again.

Then he ran back to find someone to arrest Xu Yue.

In this way, wouldn't they be able to get a huge bounty again?

Xu Dalang and Xu Da were present before, so the officers and soldiers did not dare to have any thoughts.

It's just that the dark night can always arouse desires in people's hearts, and since all the Xu family members have disappeared, leaving only a harmless kingfisher, the officers and soldiers of Yi County are ready to make a move.

Waiting for Kingfisher and the Wu family boy to go back to the guest room to sleep, the eight officers and soldiers from Yi County encouraged the officers and soldiers from Hejian County to share the sugar and salt in the tents and collect the huge bounty together when they went back.

Because Zhao Jian left, the officers and soldiers of Hejian County were a little hesitant.

Although Mr. Zhao has strict rules, he is pretty good to the people under him. He never forgets his brothers when good things happen. He also protects his shortcomings on weekdays. Everyone is willing to follow Mr. Zhao in doing things.

I had already agreed to work with Xu Jiajun in the future, but now that I have all the money and food, how can I be embarrassed to do such a thing of stabbing someone in the back?

However, these thoughts did not last long before they were shattered by the snow-white fine salt that the officers and soldiers of Yi County dug out from Xu's army's luggage.

Money makes people's hearts flutter. If they don't, it's just because the money given to them is not enough!
