Chapter 1169 Wolf Head, Ji Family Emblem
From Yue Shansheng's point of view, if he had to choose between Liu Wei and Rong Leng, he would still choose Liu Wei even if Rong Leng had saved his life.
Not for anything else, just because Liu Wei's mother is Ji Xiaqiu and her brother is Liu Moyi.
Therefore, when Liu Wei showed doubts and revealed his desire to know about the so-called map, Yue Shansheng only hesitated for a moment and then told the whole story without any worries.
After Liu Wei heard this, she looked at him expressionlessly.
Yue Shansheng immediately stood up again and went back to the cabin. Sure enough, he saw the human skin map neatly placed on the bed.
He picked up the map, walked out, and handed it to Liu Wei.
When Liu Wei took the map, she frowned the first moment her fingers touched the thin soft leather. As an experienced forensic examiner, she could judge what kind of leather she was holding just by the feel of her hand...
This is an extremely abstract sea map using the skin of the human back as the base.
The reason why it is said to be abstract is because the format of this picture is neither a military version nor a civilian version. This is a semi-finished product that a layman can barely describe based on his own memory and painting skills.
This kind of map, strictly speaking, is not a map at all, because it does not even have formal functions such as scaling that should exist on the map itself.
Liu Wei stared at the map for a long time before handing it back to Yue Dansheng.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Wei asked: "So, you are planning to go to this Devil's Sea?"
She mentioned "you", obviously linking Rong Len's behavior with this map when he decided to send her and her son and daughter to Qingzhou half a day ago and then left alone again.
And the owner of the map is Yue Shansheng, so they should also be "in the same group"?
Yue Shansheng shook his head: "I don't know him."
This means that he is definitely going, but Rong Leng has not communicated with him, and the two of them have not agreed to go together.
Liu Wei fell silent again. After a while, he raised his head again: "Then I will accept the offer for him. Let's go together."
Yue Shansheng looked at her: "Are you aware of the danger?"
The description of the Devil's Sea on the map is very poor, but it can be seen from the surrounding sea that the area is far beyond the deep sea.
No one knows whether ships can successfully cross the deep sea after deviating from the normal sea route. Even if they cross the deep sea, can they find the Devil's Sea?
There are countless uncertain factors on this simple map.
The sea is mysterious, and these sources of danger lurking on the sea are likely to be fatal to everyone.
"Only half of this map?" Liu Wei knew that the sea was unpredictable and crises broke out everywhere, but she didn't think that a map carved on human skin would be seriously rough and turned into a simple sketch that was almost a joke. The only possibility was The map is incomplete.
If there is a complete map, can we predict the route in advance and avoid all foreseeable dangers?
Yue Shansheng seemed not to have expected Liu Wei to ask such a precise question. He paused before replying: "This is one-third."
A complete map requires three things, and this is just one of them.
This was also the reason why he felt free to hand over the picture to Rong Leng. The picture was not everything. Without the talisman and seal, it was nothing.
Liu Wei nodded as expected and asked, "What about the other two items, you don't want to take them out?"
Yue Shansheng did not hide anything: "The talisman is still there, but the seal is not."
As he spoke, he took off his purse from his waist. In the purse was a white jade pendant as big as a baby's palm.
Liu Wei took the jade pendant, glanced at it, and then his eyes froze.
Yue Shansheng thought she recognized it and said, "It's the emblem of the Ji family."
Liu Wei immediately looked at him with a subtle expression: "Do you think the wolf head above is the emblem of the Ji family?"
"Wolf head?" Yue Shansheng was stunned and looked over, but from his angle, he could only see the complicated symbols on the front of the jade pendant that didn't look like words or pictures.
Seeing that he didn't notice, Liu Wei laid the jade pendant flat and used her fingers to cover some of the corners. After a moment, the talisman whose shape she couldn't determine just now actually turned into a wolf head with a ferocious gaze.
Yue Shansheng's eyes suddenly brightened, he took the jade pendant and stared at it closely.
Seeing how intently he was looking at it, Liu Wei hesitated and said, "This wolf should be called Xin Shen."
Yue Shansheng looked at her.
"I often dreamed about it before...I recognized its face..."
"Dream?" This statement puzzled Yue Shansheng.
Liu Wei shook his head.
Before she met Rong Leng again, she dreamed of wolves every day. That experience was really not a good one. She didn't want to recall it anymore, so she just kept it vague: "You said this is a talisman? What is the seal?"
Yue Shansheng seemed to have thought of something unpleasant, and his facial expression changed: "A stone medal given by an old friend."
"lost?"
"Um."
Liu Wei said regretfully: "If the seal is there, the map should be able to be unlocked, but this talisman is also useful. My mother may know something about it, and I can fix the book for her."
"No need." Yue Shansheng put the jade pendant away and said calmly: "After I found Tupi, I have already looked for her. She can't figure it out without the seal."
Liu Wei touched his chin thoughtfully: "That's troublesome. Can you think about where the seal was lost?"
Yue Shansheng shook his head.
"When did you lose it?"
Yue Shansheng still shook his head.
"You remember the approximate date, right?"
Yue Shansheng remained silent.
Liu Wei sighed: "Forget it, I won't force it."
But unexpectedly, Yue Shansheng spoke at this time and asked: "Do you know Zhong Ziyu?"
How could he mention Zhong Ziyu so well?
Thinking of the letter she had received before, which said that the man in front of her had killed Zhong Ziyu with his own hands a few days ago, Liu Wei clicked her tongue and said disapprovingly: "Maybe you know, I am very familiar with "Criminal Minds" and "Psychic". There are some studies on the subject of violent tendencies in disease patients."
Yue Shansheng pondered for a moment: "Then, you might estimate where he would hide the seal?"
Liu Wei paused and asked in surprise: "Is the seal at Zhong Ziyu's place?"
Yue Shansheng nodded.
Liu Wei was puzzled: "Why did you give him such an important thing?"
Yue Dansheng's tone was calm: "The map is on him, and the seal was handed over to him."
Liu Wei was surprised: "You still leave this map with him? You two have a good relationship, so why did he return the map to you but not the seal?"
Yue Shansheng took it for granted: "The map was cut from his back and the seal. If he didn't tell me, I would kill him."
Liu Wei: "..."
"has a problem?"
Liu Wei shook his head quickly, and after a while, he wondered: "Why is the map engraved on his back?"
Yue Shansheng's eyes darkened: "When I was young, I was ignorant."
Liu Wei suddenly remembered that Wei Chou once said that Yue Shansheng, Yue Chongming, and Zhong Ziyu were friends who met and grew up together when they were young.
