MTL - Players Please Get In the Car-Chapter 1438 Codex and Mining
Chapter 1438 Code and Mining
"It's also possible." Xu Huo nodded, "But maybe he was chased and beaten by the guards before, but now he may be chased and beaten by the prop man."
Yan Jiayu thought very openly, waved his hands and said: "C-level copy, it must not be that simple, I am worried that more and more players will try to find a way to enter the castle, and the queen will not be in the mood to watch the show by then, I will find a servant people to talk to."
Xu Huo agreed to act separately, and the two went to a fork in the road and changed directions.
In addition to the guards, maids walked the most in the castle. Although people in Gem City are willing to help others, Xu Huo, as a strange man, would attract attention once he came into contact with people, so he did not take the initiative to talk to people, but avoided The workers in the castle walked towards the location of the main castle.
It is illegal to enter someone else's house without an invitation. It is not clear whether the castle's house requires the owner's separate consent. Xu Huo did not enter the door, but tentatively used spiritual power to detect it.
There is nothing special about the construction materials of the ancient castle. After the spiritual world is opened, the vertical pupils that replace Xu Huo's eyes can move freely within the scope of the spiritual world.
Choosing an appropriate location, he followed two cleaning servants into the king's study.
Shutong wandered around the room, slid along the wall to the ground, passed through the cleaned floor, and climbed onto the desk.
A servant was arranging the books spread out on the table, and said: "Hey, the king has written a new law."
"It is not allowed to touch the king's treasure box..." The maid said strangely: "Didn't the gems in the treasure box be stolen?"
Another person turned his head and looked at it, "Maybe he is afraid of being stolen again, but those thieves are really hateful. They have been here once or twice. Recently, not only the king fell ill, but even the queen was also depressed."
"What a kind person the queen is, to suffer like this because of those damned thieves."
"I really hope that those thieves can be caught quickly, so that the queen and king can be happy."
The maid standing in front of the desk put the thick book with the words "Gem City Code" aside, and then mentioned the thief caught by the maid Xiaosi.
"The execution time is set for this evening, do you want to see it?"
"Of course I'm going. I've already told the housekeeper to watch for me. I'll go outside the castle to watch the execution."
Compared to the worries about the physical and mental health of the king and queen, the maids were full of joy and joy when they talked about the execution, and they also said deeply: "I don't know if someone will come to rob the prison."
After cleaning, the two maids left talking and laughing.
After the door of the study was closed again, Xu Huo turned his spiritual power into a flowing black liquid, and opened the code on the table.
This law code should have referred to a certain complete law. The previous provisions are exquisitely written and the handwriting is fine. Although the latter handwriting can be seen to be from the same person, it is obviously not written collectively. From the ink marks, it can be seen that the writing time is different. different.
However, this code is also in line with the fairy tale background. The provisions are simple and clear, and at the same time strange, even a little inexplicable, especially these recently written, "touching the king's throne without the king's consent", "sending a large fire in the castle without the king's permission" voice", "can't pick roses", "not allowed to enter the king's bathroom" and so on.
On the surface, it seems to be legal provisions, but in fact it should be the tentative facts of the players, that is, some seem to be normal, and some are unreasonable, such as "It is not allowed to touch the queen's dress", "It is not allowed to wave the toilet brush" .
It is some trivial things that are written into the Codex first, and are more important under normal circumstances, such as gem boxes, Codex documents, and some things that are more like props, but are written last or not at all... Xu Huo is also very curious, what Players will be more interested in the toilet brush when they come in.
However, this code has a very obvious personal emotional color, and perhaps some trivial things are more important in the eyes of the king.
After briefly reading the Codex, Xu Huo came to the display cabinet next to it. There were many brilliant gemstones in it. Judging from the rays released from the stones, it was not special. The empty box in the middle should be placed The box of the stolen gem was nothing special either.
After going around in a circle, Xu Huocai turned his attention out of the study, avoiding the maid Xiao Si who came in from the main entrance, and turned to the next room.
This should be an unused lounge, with a lot of gift boxes and paper documents piled inside. After searching around, although I still couldn't find the relevant map of Gem City, I did find several ore mining contracts. It is Gem City. Signed employment contract, which involves transportation issues.
The transportation in Gem City is mainly by animal-drawn vehicles. Judging from the time spent on transportation, the mining site is about two days away from the transit town that receives ore.
The gem mines in Gem City should have been mined a long time ago, so the citizens shared the gems equally and shared prosperity. Although the date of these mining documents was not written, judging from the paper and writing traces, they should be recent.
Xu Huo searched around again, and found many such contracts, some of which were sandwiched between government documents with dates, and the approximate time could be estimated. From this point of view, the mining duration of this mine was not long. short.
Except for the disappearing craftsmen and a few people who went out to travel, there is no recruitment in Gem City, and the residents have never mentioned going out for work, let alone mining.
So the king was looking for someone outside, and he didn't disclose the news of the mining to the people?
The new mine and the gems from it are the secrets the king wants to hide?
Perhaps as Yan Jiayu guessed, the lost ore is special.
"Are you lost?" Xiao Si's voice rang in his ears, Xu Huo turned his head and said apologetically, "I dare not walk here, but no one passed by after waiting for a long time."
"You are standing in the corner, and the guards passing by in this position are not easy to see." Xiao Si said with a smile, "Come with me."
The two returned to the wing tower one after the other, and soon ran into Yan Jiayu and another maid who was exactly the same, Xiaosi.
After the two met, Xiao Si who brought Yan Jiayu nodded to Xu Huo and left, and the remaining Xiao Si led the rest of the journey.
Looking at each other, Yan Jiayu blinked at Xu Huo, then caught up with Xiaosi, and said, "You and your sister really look alike, if you perform magic tricks, you don't need tools."
Xiao Si pursed her lips and smiled, "Everyone in the castle knows me, and no one will be surprised even if I perform it."
"Madame Liya will see you one hour after lunch, please go back to the lounge for dinner now.
