Back to the Peak

Chapter 78: Fragment of Sheepskin

The closer he got to the broken parchment, the more certain Ling Feng's guess was - this must be a quarter of the treasure map!

Ling Feng stopped, reached out and took off the parchment from the wall, and lowered his head to examine it carefully.

It may be because of being 'naked' and 'exposing' in the air for a long time. This piece of sheepskin roll has been faintly yellowed, and the surrounding area has also become dilapidated due to long-term wear and tear, but from the texture on it and the way the map was drawn, it can be concluded that, This parchment scroll is definitely a remnant of the same treasure map as the one I got in Longwei Mountain.

"I didn't expect the Qing family to collect such a fragment. I wonder if they know the secret on the treasure map?"

Looking at the map on the parchment, Ling Feng thought to himself.

On the side, Qing Ye couldn't help but feel strange seeing that Ling Feng ignored the many armored weapons around him and just stared at the broken sheepskin scroll in his hand without taking his eyes off it. But after thinking about it, this sheepskin scroll can be placed on the third floor, and it must be an extremely precious item together with these treasured armors. Julius knew something, otherwise he wouldn't have gone straight for it.

"I want this parchment!" Ling Feng raised his hand and said to Qing Ye beside him.

"This seems to be just a remnant map. It seems that it is not easy to find all the maps. It is not very useful for you to get it. It is better to pick one or two suitable armor weapons around. This is a good deal." Qing Ye Glancing at the parchment in Ling Feng's hand, he kindly suggested to Ling Feng. In his opinion, although the unknown treasure is attractive, it is not as real as the treasure in front of him.

"I have a hobby. The more unknown treasures are, the more attractive they are to me. Compared with the treasures around me, I like this piece of remnant map more!" Ling Feng smiled slightly, declined Qingye's kindness, and sent The damaged parchment scroll was also put into his ring.

Of course, Ling Feng would not be polite to the Qing family, and then he carefully selected two sets of invulnerable golden silk armor and put them into the ring, then he and Qing Ye left the treasury and walked towards the hall of the Qing family.

In the lobby of the Qing family.

Not long after Qingye left with Ling Feng, Qingzhan looked at Qinglie suspiciously and asked, "Old patriarch, although Ling Feng has saved your life, but allowing an outsider to enter the family treasure house Picking treasures at will, such rewards are too generous, right?"

"Do you think I did this just to repay him?" Qing Lie said with a smile, "Actually, it was for our Qing family that I showed my favor to him in this way! Before, I had promised him in the secret room, and the Qing family would do the same in the future Attaching to the third prince, we will always be in the same boat with their Ling family!"

"What!" Qing Zhan's eyes widened in disbelief, "Did I hear correctly? The Qing family has maintained neutrality for many years and never participated in the struggle for the throne within the royal family. Why did the old patriarch just wake up today? Have you made such a big decision? Although Ling Feng himself is quite strong, the mere Ling family is not worth the risk of the Qing family, right?"

Qing Zhan couldn't help feeling that the old patriarch's decision was a bit too arbitrary!

Qing Lie naturally guessed the doubts in Qing Zhan's heart, and couldn't help but smiled slightly: "Don't worry. Although I am over eighty years old, I am not old and confused. I also do this for the future of the Qing family. I think , after a while, you will know why I did this today!"

Naturally, with Qing Zhan's strength, he couldn't discover Ling Feng's secret, but Qing Lie knew that Ling Feng was very mysterious, and there might be an extremely powerful hidden force behind him. It is definitely more cost-effective to have a good relationship with him than to have a good relationship with the Eastern Jin royal family hundred times!

"But that third prince is a complete dandy. Apart from the Ling family, there is no force to support him. If our Qing family supports him, will we be on the wrong team?" Qing Zhan worried.

"A dude? Do you think Ling Feng would be so stupid as to cling to a complete dude?" Qing Lie smiled lightly, "Don't worry, my vision will not be wrong!"

Seeing the affirmation on Qing Lie's face, Qing Zhan couldn't say anything more, but nodded suspiciously.

"Actually, I hope that Ling Feng can get more things from our Qing family's treasure house today, so that he will give us more rewards in the future!" Qing Lie said frankly, stroking his white beard.

He was really worried, would Ling Feng, who possessed the treasure, look down on the things in his treasure house at all?

"It doesn't matter if he takes other things, but what if he happens to pick up the fragment of the parchment scroll? That's what you got in exchange for it!" Qing Zhan worried.

"There are so many treasures in the treasury, and the parchment scroll is so inconspicuous, Ling Feng probably wouldn't notice it at all." Qing Lie said, "And if he happens to pick it up, anyway, the remnant picture is in our hands. It’s useless, it’s better to give it to him as a favor.”

Qing Zhan curled his lips, he didn't quite understand why the old patriarch was so generous to Ling Feng, even willing to give him what he bought with his life back then!

Is a mere Ling Feng really worth the Qing family's attention?

Qing Zhan couldn't help being suspicious.

Just when he was wondering, Qing Ye brought Ling Feng back to the Qing Family Hall again.

"Little friend Ling Feng, did you pick something you like?" Qing Lie asked Ling Feng who had returned with a smile.

Ling Feng nodded with a smile, and said with satisfaction: "I didn't expect that there are so many treasures collected in your family's treasury. I'm so dazzled by the selection, it's hard to choose."

As he said that, Ling Feng touched the ring on his finger, and took out two hollow lotus plants, two sets of golden silk treasure armor and the dilapidated parchment scroll that he had chosen: "These are the ones I bought from I don’t know if there is something that the old patriarch can’t part with from the treasure house of the noble family?”

Qing Lie's eyes swept over the two hollow lotus plants and the golden silk armor one by one, and finally stopped on the damaged sheepskin scroll. A trace of surprise flashed in his old eyes. He didn't expect that Ling Feng would actually pick it. This inconspicuous remnant picture!

Qing Zhan on the side was also full of astonishment, his eyes fixed on the parchment in Ling Feng's hand: "Brother Ling Feng, you can take away everything else, but you can't take away this fragment of the picture!"

"Huh?" Ling Feng was taken aback. Although this is a treasure map, it is only a fragment after all, so its value is not great to the Qing family. Unless there is something else hidden in it, they shouldn't be so concerned about this parchment.

"Qing Zhan!" Qing Lie glared at Qing Zhan, and scolded, "I have already promised Ling Feng that you can choose the items in the treasure house at will, how can you go back on your promise!" Qing Lie turned to look at Ling Feng, and said affirmatively , "Little friend Ling Feng, since you picked it, it is naturally yours. Just take this parchment!"

"As the saying goes, a gentleman does not take away people's love. This fragment of a picture seems to be extremely important to your family, so I'd better give it back to you." Although he was a little bit reluctant, Ling Feng was still very happy to return the parchment. Qing family.

Seeing Ling Feng being so forthright, Qing Zhan, who had spoken earlier, couldn't help flashing a bit of embarrassment on his face, and explained: "Brother Ling Feng, you don't know that twenty years ago, it was because of this damaged parchment that the old patriarch died The poison of the three-headed Jiao almost lost my life!"

"Um!"

Hearing this, Ling Feng couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect that the poison in Qing Lie's body was related to this parchment! He was full of curiosity, what is going on?
