The History of the Empress of the Shang Dynasty

Chapter 247
Gently letting go, something like a disk slipped out of Ling Ao's hand, only the size of a child's palm, so everyone couldn't see clearly, only the chain hanging from the disk was shiny black, but they didn't know what it was made of.

It opened with a "snap", Ling Ao looked at the pointer on it, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and motioned for the servant to take it down for everyone to see.

"This is called a compass. There is a pointer on it. No matter where you are, it will always point to the south. According to the sayings of going up, south, down, north, left, west, right, east, west, north, south, north."

The waiter walked around with the disc, and everyone looked at it carefully. The small pointer did change direction with the walk of the waiter, no matter where it went, it clearly pointed to the south.

Everywhere there was a sound of surprise.

General Ouyang Ming stared at the little thing almost intently, with a hot light in his eyes, wishing he could take the compass as his own.

No matter what he thinks about such a magical thing, he can't figure out what the mystery will be in the middle. The pointer that keeps pointing to the south must be some special material, which is also the key to this thing.

One can learn to make good wine by himself, but although the structure of this compass is exquisite, it is not difficult to make it, but without the material of this pointer, it is afraid that what is made is just an empty shell.

"If this compass is made bigger, it can be placed directly on the boat to guide the direction. Your country has a well-developed marine animal husbandry industry, but I have also heard that many fishermen died in the East China Sea because they lost their way. I have to say that this compass is aimed at your country. , is definitely a major invention that benefits the country and the people.”

Ling Ao continued to follow the guidance, every sentence hit the key point, which made Beidi envoy's heart skip a beat.

Only the man in blue lowered his head and frowned, seeming to be thinking and hesitating.

There was a long silence, and before the man in blue could signal, Ouyang Ming couldn't decide whether he wanted a compass or someone, no matter how happy he was.

Seeing these movements, Su Nuo felt nervous in his heart, staring at the man in blue without moving, only hoping that he would ask for the compass.

If he insists on asking for someone, Su Nuo may have to show up by himself.

Su Nuo was very resistant to appearing, and looked sideways at the Night King. He didn't seem to say anything during the whole banquet, but when he saw his evil eyes, he remembered what happened in the Night King's Mansion.

Now that Su Nuo knew about the Night King's special hobbies, his scalp felt numb when he thought about it, and his mind was filled with bloody face. He couldn't remember what happened back then.

But, don't be afraid of what happens, just be afraid of [-], even if the Night King forgets what happened that day, it is inevitable that he will see his face again and have that disgusting thought again.

While Su Nuo was thinking, he suddenly realized that the man in blue and the Night King were looking at him at the same time, and hurriedly looked away.

The Night King just glanced vigilantly and then turned his head, still sipping the wine in his glass coquettishly, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

The blue eyes of the man in blue suddenly lit up, as if he had guessed something, the corner of his mouth hooked up, and he had already made a decision.

"This compass is really good, and this general is very tempted. However, when His Royal Highness came to name important people, as a courtier, he naturally dare not make decisions. If possible, I, Beidi Kingdom, are willing to buy this compass at a high price."

In a word, Su Nuo felt a basin of cold water pouring over his head, and secretly glared at the begging man in blue.
