Chapter 331 Gluttonous Bronze Drum and Jade Silk

"I know this." Chu Jiu pursed his lower lips, avoiding Yu Mantang. Feng Chengyang didn't even say it when Lu Yao was around. Obviously he planned to only the two of them know about this matter, but that's all. Although it is a bit risky, it is not a labor-saving method.

It was just how she would tell Yan Shu and Bai Lihong so that they would not report this matter to Chang Qi in a hurry. This was something worth thinking about.Rubbing the sore brows, Chu Jiu decided not to think about it for the time being, and listened to Feng Chengyang's words first before speaking.

"By the way, how do you know that those people have maps that we don't?"

What Chu Jiu asked was why he knew that those people had maps that they didn't have, not why he knew they had maps, because the reason was very simple, if those people didn't have anything in their hands, they would definitely not be able to gather so many people.

At this time, Zhizi is in Xiao Zhenhan's hands, and her fake Zhizi is here, then they must have an ancient tribe, or have a so-called map. Let them catch them, and they won't cooperate obediently.

So after eliminating one by one in this way, only the map is naturally left, but why is Feng Chengyang so sure that the maps in the hands of those people are different from the maps in their hands?

"Could it be that they are taking a different route from us?" Chu Jiu could only think of this.

Feng Chengyang nodded, and wrote down: They are taking a dead end, the older generation has already walked that way, and after being confirmed by the spies, it is true that they are walking a dead end.

"So, you suspect that the dead end is actually a cover." It's like digging a diamond. Some people keep going, while others just give up halfway through digging. The so-called dead end is very likely to be a half-dug diamond. Maybe the next shovel, is the diamond gush.

This is why Feng Chengyang was worried.

"En." Feng Chengyang continued to write: Indeed, Feng has this suspicion, but it can't be ruled out that these people are actually Xiao Zhenhan's suspicion array for us.

It was wrong to deliberately go to that dead end, just to make them mistakenly think that there is actually a way to go, and thus be led there, betting that they are clever and misled by cleverness, which is what Xiao Zhenhan and the others might do. things.

Chu Jiu listened to Feng Chengyang's words and nodded, she really didn't expect the latter, this Feng Chengyang's thoughts were so dense that she was not as good as herself.

"I understand what you said. Come tomorrow with the tracking sachet. I will try to find out the method of making the cup tonight." The paper was torn up and burned, and after covering the incense burner, Feng Chengyang was sent out.

After Feng Chengyang also left, the whole inner room was eerily quiet. Yan Shu came in, took out the incense burner and replaced it with new spices, Chujiu’s thoughts drifted away, wondering if the tracking sachet made by Feng Chengyang was Yan Shu’s What they traced, how do they explain it?

Let's find a way to send Yan Shu away, one step, one step, other than that, there is really no other way.

In the evening, Chu Jiu was writing the method of making the cup. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally came up with a method that was barely qualified. He planned to record it, so that he could read it with Feng Chengyang tomorrow.

At this time, Yan Shu knocked on the door: "My lord, the young master of the Yu family is here, do you want him to come in?"

In the room, Chu Jiu was stunned, and Yu Mantang came to find him quietly, which is really strange.

After packing up the things, Chu Jiu said, "Please."

She wants to see what this Yu Mantang is singing.

It's just that Yu Mantang's subsequent actions really surprised Chu Jiu, because what he showed Chu Jiu was... a piece of jade silk.

Among such things as jade and silk, Guizhang and Shubo are used for sacrifices, alliances, court appointments, etc., and they also have the function of recruiting talents.

In ancient times, the feudal lords held jade silks in alliances to express the meaning of reconciliation. Of course, they also had the meaning of pure money.

What is the purpose of Yu Mantang bringing out the jade silk?
give her money?court?Recruitment?Or... sacrifice?

"Brother Qin, take a closer look." Seeing that Chu Jiu hadn't said a word, Yu Mantang moved the jade silk closer and placed it on the table.

On the ninth day of the ninth day, he carefully looked at it, wanting to see if there was anything special about the jade silk.

Seeing this, Chu Jiu was even more puzzled.

The word for jade is Congwang, Yusheng, and its original meaning is a utensil carved with royal patterns made of beautiful stone, such as cong and huang.

Silk characters from white towel, white sound.

In the impression of the ninth day of the ninth day, the jade silk is mostly jade with the "taotie pattern" of the jade room, or a white silk scarf like the Tibetan hada. , It is also used as a gift between the vassal states, between the vassals and the emperor when they meet each other.

In ancient times, as opposed to "fighting", it was jade and silk, implying peaceful coexistence.

But Yu Mantang's piece doesn't look much different from other jade silks, so why does Yu Mantang want her to take a closer look?
"What exactly do you want me to see?" Chu Jiu finally surrendered, saying that he couldn't see it.

Yu Mantang lowered his eyebrows, reached out and turned the jade silk over.

Chu Jiu's eyes sank. It turned out that there were many patterns engraved on the back of this piece of jade, and the engraved one in the middle seemed a bit like the gluttonous bronze drum of the Shang Dynasty that I had seen in the auction house.

But if you look closely, it doesn't seem very similar. She wants to look more carefully, but because the jade silk is really smaller, she can only give up.

I can only guess that the engraved on it may be other ancient beasts, or it may simply be the pattern of a beast that I don't know.

But when Chu Jiu guessed like this, Yu Mantang told her that this jade silk was handed down from the Yu family, that is to say, it belonged to the ancient clan.

Hearing the words on the ninth day of the ninth day, a chill ran down his spine: "Since it is such an important thing, what do you mean by showing it to me?"

"This treasure is for you."

Yu Mantang explained.

It turned out that this jade silk was Yu Mantang's father, and it was Yu Mantang who was the head of the Yu family at this time. Stick to it.

Take this directly to the ninth day.

But the only condition is that this jade silk cannot be shown to others. The other people mentioned by Yu Mantang naturally include Feng Chengyang and Lu Yao, and maybe they are even specially guarded against these two.

"This may be our Yu clan's last trump card." Yu Mantang smiled wryly. One day, sooner or later, the Yu family will have no status, or, like other ancient clans who have left the gate of life and death, will disappear inexplicably.

Chu Jiu glanced at the jade silk, she didn't even reach out to touch it, couldn't Yu Mantang see it?
