However, he was disappointed. The blue and white porcelain he got in his hand did not have any cracks, but was a complete bottle.
Somewhat unwillingly, he immediately took the other one handed over by Xing Tian and looked at it, four or five times in a row, and then the solemn expression on Ye Huang's face gradually melted away.
Taking out Leng Feng, he carefully scratched a few times along the almost invisible gap at the bottom of the bottle. The bottom of the large blue and white porcelain vase finally came loose. When he took off the bottom of the bottle, he saw the map embedded in the center of the bottom of the bottle.
, Emperor Ye could not help but breathed a sigh of relief.
If he couldn't find anything, he would be really disappointed.
"Found it?"
Seeing Ye Huang handing the blue and white porcelain to Xing Tian and holding a small roll of something the size of a mini cigar, Ye Qingmei asked.
"It should be!"
Nodding, Ye Huang looked a little happy, and then carefully opened the map. Sure enough, it was made of the same material as his two previous drawings.
"Go get some water and give me a lighter."
"good!"
After nodding, Chu Tiange, who was watching from the side, quickly went to get what Ye Huang wanted.
A few minutes later, the latter came back. Ye Huang took the water, then carefully moistened the drawing, placed it on a lighter and baked it slowly, blowing on it constantly.
Sure enough, after a while, another carefully outlined pattern appeared on the map.
"Hey, it's true!"
Seeing that part of the route above could be aligned with the drawings he had placed at home, Ye Huang finally felt relieved.
After drying the drawings over low heat, Ye Huang then put the drawings away and handed them to Ye Qingmei.
"Auntie, help me take this thing back to Yanjing and put it in my room."
Ye Huang was running around here and there, so it was really not safe to carry something of such vital importance with him.
"No problem!" Ye Qingmei nodded and said, "These things are your clues to find Xuanyuan Jue?"
"That's right! There are eight yuan in total. I have only collected three yuan so far. The other five yuan are probably in the same blue and white porcelain vase, but I'm not sure whether they are." Seeing his aunt asking him, Ye Huang nodded.
, and then said to Stephen and others, "Look at the remaining ceramic bottles and see if there are any others."
Ye Huang was still thinking about today's bumper harvest. Maybe he could find a few more pieces, which would make it much easier for him later.
After everyone responded, they immediately helped Ye Huang continue to look at the ceramics one by one. Ye Huang himself also searched carefully, but to his disappointment, out of hundreds of ceramics, only this one was found on the map. Although the rest were found on the map,
Some of them are valuable, but no clues have been found.
"Okay, don't be dissatisfied. This time you are a blind cat holding a dead mouse. It is already quite difficult to get one by accident. People can't be too greedy."
Ye Qingmei chuckled softly, and comforted the somewhat dejected Ye Huang, "There are only a few people who have succeeded in practicing Xiao Xuanyuan Jue in the past thousands of years. Ye Huang has succeeded now, so he is very lucky."
As for the four secret seals of heaven and earth, they exist in legends. It is said that no one except the ancestors of Huangdi has successfully practiced them. Emperor Ye is really too greedy now.
"I really wish I could be more greedy, at least find one more one. The last two times I got it by mistake, this time it's a mistake. I don't know when I will get the fourth one."
As he spoke, Ye Huang lost all the excitement of finding the third map fragment at this moment, and instead felt a little downcast.
"Ye Huang, I have seen this kind of vase once!"
Just when Ye Qingmei was about to teach Emperor Ye a lesson for his inadequacy, Wage Chongshan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.
"What, have you seen it, where?"
"In the old house of the Ito family, there is a blue and white porcelain vase that is almost identical to this one." Waka Shigeyama said with certainty, pointing to the ceramic vase placed on the ground next to it.
As soon as he heard what he said, most of Ye Huang's original joy was instantly wiped away.
"I thought I was in Wakayama, but I didn't expect to be in the enemy's house. Then I would be in big trouble this time." With a wry smile, Ye Huang shrugged his shoulders.
"Killing the father and son Ito Hirobumi and Itoyama, I guess the Ito family will be eager to tear me into pieces. If I go to their ancestral house to steal this thing, they will probably chase me to the moon."
"No matter what, there is always this clue, isn't it? You are the only one who is so pessimistic. Zhongshan, can you tell me where exactly it is placed?"
"In the hall of Mount Ito, Mount Ito once invited my sister and me there, wanting my sister to marry into the Ito family. My sister didn't agree. When she and I came out, we glanced at the table beside the wall of the hall.
I didn’t remember there was such a ceramic bottle at first, but when I think about it carefully, it is indeed the case.”
"That shouldn't be wrong. This batch of things was originally circulated from the Qing Palace. Some of them were kidnapped by the Eight-Nation Allied Forces. Others were lost to no one knows where. The Kingdom of the Sun is also among them."
Ye Huang said calmly with a calm face.
"Ye Huang, do you want me to find an opportunity to steal it out?" Waka Chongshan said again.
"No, let's leave it to the Ito family first. Besides, if Itoyama dies this time, you might be punished if you go back. The Ito family probably hates you and Wakayama to the core, and I don't want you to get involved again."
With a shake of his head, Ye Huang rejected Wage Chongshan's kindness.
"That's fine, I just won't interfere. As for the Ito family's desire to hold me and my sister accountable, you can rest assured. Wakayama has been established for thousands of years, and the Ito family cannot infringe."
With a sonorous spirit, Waka Chongshan said with great momentum.
"That's good! Okay, you all have found something you like. Each of you grab some. Let's leave first. Later, Tiange, give your father a call and ask him to send a secret transportation team over as soon as possible.
All these things were shipped back to China.”
"All the gold will be donated to the country. As for these antiques, we will keep them for ourselves for the time being."
"Why not donate it together?" Chu Tiange was a little confused.
"Gold can be stored in the treasury, but these antiques, hum! They will only be stored in museums. I am afraid that in a few decades, half of them will enter the auction houses." Ye Huang bluntly expressed his opinions on some domestic museums.
distrust.
During his many years abroad, the old man often fiddled with antiques and the like. Many collections originally in major museums were frequently stolen, and each time they said they were stolen by some criminal thief.
In fact, many of the items were stolen by museum insiders.
Therefore, when Chu Tiange asked this question, Ye Huang said angrily.
Rather than letting these bastards keep it and steal it and sell it for money, it's better to keep it here.
"Emperor Ye is right, Tiange, please tell your father clearly and ask him to store this batch of antiques in the military area first. Emperor Ye will go and get them later." Obviously, Ye Qingmei also knew this.
There are some tricks in it, and Ye Huang expressed his support for this approach.
"Okay, I'll tell my father."
"Um!"
…
The group of people stayed in the cave for a while, then left the cave and closed it again.
However, since the illusion has been broken by Ito Mountain in advance, Ye Huang and others did not dare to leave just now, and were ready to wait for Chu Qingkuang to send troops to transport all the gold away.
The company was stationed here for two days. After the transport troops sent by Chu Qingkuang evacuated the entire treasure in batches, Ye Huang and others finally left this chaotic area.
During this period, Ye Huang was quite pleased that Xu Ke and several other Yanhuang Hui brothers were still alive. When they were cleaning the battlefield, they saw several people imprisoned in the cave next to the gold mine.
Although several people suffered a certain amount of torture, fortunately they were not seriously injured, and after some treatment, there were no sequelae.
Xu Ke almost burst into tears after seeing Emperor Ye, crying like a child. As a result, he was laughed at by Nalan Qianqi and Xing Tian, but everyone was overjoyed in their hearts.
In view of the fact that he wanted to search for information about the poison in Southeast Asia, Emperor Ye asked Xu Ke, Wang Zhi, Wang Dabiao and others to follow them back to China after the soldiers from the Southwest Military Region came to transport gold.
He only had Nalan Qianqi, Xing Tian and Stephen with him. Even Chu Tiange was driven away by Ye Huang.
By the time they left the jungle where half of the elite members of the Ito family were buried, their corpses were already filled with the stench of decay.
For more than ten days in a row, Ye Huang first searched all over Myanmar in the jungle, and also asked some local people about the poison, but found nothing.
Although I met many old folk who had a certain understanding of voodoo during this period, when Ye Huang told him about the voodoo poison in Nangong Fengling, everyone shook their heads.
Helpless, Ye Huang went south to Thailand, then Cambodia, and then Vietnam, searching all the way, but still found nothing.
On the tenth day of the search, they returned to Chiang Saen and prepared to leave by boat to end this extremely dangerous journey.
Ye Huang, who was a little unwilling to give up, made some inquiries in the alleys of Qingsheng and finally got some clues from an old man who looked to be hundreds of years old.
The latter told Ye Huang that this type of Gu insect seemed to have been spread in India to the west. It had also spread to Southeast Asia at one time, but it had basically disappeared hundreds of years ago.
Emperor Ye was overjoyed after receiving the news. After thanking the old man, he left.
However, he was not prepared to rush directly to India to investigate. It had been more than ten days since he last left Chongqing, and Lin Anqi's matter had been delayed for more than ten days.
Ye Huang estimated that if he didn't go, Mr. Lin would really go crazy.
