Chapter: 745
I was really afraid that Ao Dingtian would take care of his clan brother and wouldn't let me open it. If he didn't let me, I would be embarrassed to open it, and there was no way to know what was in the box.
With Ao Dingtian's approval, I prepared to open the box with confidence.
However, I soon discovered that the four sides of the box were fastened with a large copper lock.
Obviously, to open this box, four keys are needed!
I looked at Ao Dingtian on the side, and when I was about to ask, he smiled and took out a bunch of old keys.
It was only now that I realized that Ao Dingtian had already prepared to open the box, otherwise he would have brought the key to the box for no reason.
"If it wasn't for the instructions of the clan brother, the old slave would have been unable to bear the curiosity and opened the box."
Ao Dingtian smiled embarrassedly.
I also chuckled, then took the key and started opening the copper locks one by one.
When the last copper lock was released, I lifted the lid of the case.
In a few seconds, the dust rushed to my face instantly, and Ao Dingtian and I were directly choked and coughed several times at the same time.
This box has been covered in dust for a long time, and it is full of dust. It looks like an ordinary box that can't be any more ordinary.
"My lord, there is a roll of sheepskin inside."
At this time, Ao Yan also walked to my side, she pointed to the inside of the box and said.
There was indeed a rolled up parchment inside, but it seemed that there was nothing else in the box, only one roll of parchment!
I was a little surprised, I didn't think there was such a thing in the box.
Ao Dingtian, who was beside me, was also a little surprised. He stretched out his hand in surprise, took out the parchment inside, and murmured, "How could it be a roll of parchment?"
At this moment, an idea suddenly occurred to me.
Shouldn't this parchment be a map?
It depicts the specific location of the map of the mountains and rivers!
Although my idea is a bit good and unrealistic, it is not possible! After all, what else could this common parchment be used for? In addition to engraving a map on it!
Thinking of this, I quickly said, "Old Patriarch, open it up and take a look!"
Ao Dingtian nodded, and then slowly opened the parchment.
The parchment was uncovered, and the pattern above caught my eye. I was startled and my eyes widened!
Really a map!
On this parchment, there is really a map!
"It's a map."
Ao Dingtian said in a deep voice.
I immediately took the parchment from him and looked at it carefully.
But soon, Ao Dingtian and I frowned at the same time.
For a while, the atmosphere was so awkward.
Parchment is indeed a map, only this map...
"It's the map of the hot summer."
Ao Yan on the side made a sound, breaking the quiet atmosphere at the moment.
The map on the parchment is in the shape of a huge "rooster", which is not easy to identify. As long as it is a hot summer person, it can be easily identified. This is a hot summer map!
There is nothing special about it! There is no labeling of any location, just a simple map of hot summer! A map that you can buy at any store!
"No, clan brother won't give me an ordinary hot summer map for safekeeping..."
Ao Dingtian stared at the parchment and muttered.
I frowned and thought to myself, it is indeed impossible for Ao Dingtian's mysterious clan brother to solemnly entrust him to store it with just an ordinary map of hot summer.
This seemingly ordinary map of hot summer must be strange.
As for whether the strangeness of this hot summer map has anything to do with the map of the mountains and rivers, that is unknown.
I looked at this hot summer map again, trying to find something tricky in it.
Soon, I saw something unique on the parchment.
It's not a discovery, it's just weird.
On the edge of the "rooster" map, in the upper right corner of the parchment, is a meniscus! This crescent moon hangs high in the sky!
And in the upper left corner of the parchment, there is a big sun!
The sun and the moon are the only strange thing about this map.
"Half a month... lord, there is a half moon here, will it..."
Ao Yan soon discovered the oddities on the parchment as I did.
I shook my head. I didn't think of the four words my father said. If there is only a crescent moon, then it is very likely that the map is related to those four words. There is also a sun pattern.
Obviously, this pair of sun and moon should be drawn to indicate day and night, and should have no special meaning.
"Old Patriarch, why don't you leave this parchment to me for safekeeping, okay?"
I asked.
"Naturally, the clan brother hasn't returned for many years, and I don't know if he is alive or dead. It's better to leave it to the lord. I believe that even if the clan brother comes back, he won't say anything more."
Ao Dingtian has always complied with my requests, and this time was no exception. JrNovels.com
