Chapter 257 Unexpected Surprise

After nearly ten hours of waiting, the train finally stopped at a place called Changwu County in northern Shaanxi.

When Yun Xuan and the others got off the train, it was almost evening, and the dim night gradually blurred people's vision, and colorful lights lit up one after another on both sides of the bustling street.

"It looks like we're going to stay in the hotel tonight. Let's go to a restaurant to have a meal first. After sitting on the train for so long, you must be hungry."

Yun Xuan looked up at the darkening sky, and said to the people behind him.

As soon as he heard that he was going to eat, Li Fatty immediately came to life with a blank face, and quickly echoed Yun Xuan and laughed.

"That's right, Fatty, I've been hungry for a long time, and the food on the train is too unpalatable. Let's go to the next restaurant quickly. Only when we are full can we work hard."

"Then let's go. There is a restaurant in front of us. After we eat, we will go to the hotel to rest for the night. We will start to explore the nearby river tomorrow. The real King Qin's tomb is most likely under the river in this area."

After speaking, Yun Xuan lifted his backpack and took the lead to walk towards a restaurant not far ahead.

The other four people had no objection, nodded and followed Yun Xuan's footsteps silently.

Although this restaurant doesn't look big, there are quite a lot of people eating in it. Yun Xuan and the others looked around, then found an empty box and sat down.

As soon as everyone sat down, the waiter in the restaurant ran over with a smile on his face: "Sir, what do you want to order?"

"Just serve the famous dishes in your shop." Yun Xuan said lightly.

"okay."

Seeing Yunxuan's arrogance, the waiter's smile became more obsequious, and after a few words of politeness, he hurried down to prepare the meals.

"Fatty, do you think King Qin's tomb is near this area?" Yun Xuan hurriedly asked Li Pang while waiting for the food to be served.

When asked by Yunxuan, Fatty Li's expression suddenly became serious, and he narrowed his eyes and said:
"Brother Xuan, what you said on the train before is correct, the tomb of the King of Qin is basically sure to be under a certain tributary of the Wei River.

However, there are too many tributaries of the Wei River. I cannot say that the tomb of the King of Qin must be in the Changwu County.

Tomorrow, Qianshou and I will go to explore the vicinity. Fatty, I guarantee that we will be able to find out whether the tomb of King Qin is nearby in half a day at most. "

"Well, I'm still very convinced of your ability to explore the tomb. I hope you can find it as soon as possible tomorrow. I can't wait for a moment now."

Yun Xuan nodded, and said with longing.

At this time, Qianshou at the side seemed to think of something, and quickly took out a three-yuan compass the size of a plate from his backpack, and put it on the table to make gestures.

After a while, the pointer of the Sanyuan compass stopped near the northwest, and at this moment, Qianshou's face became much more serious.

Yun Xuan was a little baffled by Qian Shou's actions, so he hurriedly asked, "Qian Shou, have you figured out something?"

After hearing Yunxuan's question, Qianshou took his gaze back from the three-yuan compass, and then said in a flat tone:

"We all know that the ancient tombs of emperors all emphasized symmetrical layout. You see, the pointer of the three-yuan compass points to the northwest, and the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor in Xi'an, which is more than 100 kilometers away, is located in the southeast of Changwu County. The two are far away from each other. It is symmetrical, which means that the real tomb of King Qin is under a tributary in the northwest of Changwu County."

"So, we can find King Qin's tomb as long as we follow the tributaries in the northwest direction?" Fatty Li asked eagerly.

"It's true to say that, but there are dozens of tributaries in the northwest direction alone. If you search for them one by one, you can find them, but it will be a waste of time."

After finishing speaking lightly, Qianshou put away the three-yuan compass on the table, then lowered his head, as if thinking about something secretly.

At this moment, the waiter came to the table with a few freshly fried dishes, and before he could turn around to leave, Qian Shou stopped him.

"Wait a moment."

"Sir, do you have any orders?" The waiter turned to look at Qianshou, with a professional smile on his face again.

"I would like to ask, is there any river in the northwest of yours that has more frequent high and low tides?" Qianshou frowned and asked in a deep voice.

If someone else asks such an irrelevant question, the waiter will directly say that he doesn't know. After all, this kind of question has nothing to do with eating.

However, after seeing the dozen or so red bills handed over by Qianshou, the waiter's attitude immediately became extremely enthusiastic.

"Uh... Let me think about it, if there is a river with frequent ebb and flow, there is really such a river, just behind the forest in the northwest.

Strange to say, the river basically rises and ebbs every one or two days, and the water level before and after the tide rises and ebbs is also very abnormal. When the tide rises, the water level can rise by about half a meter at once, so there is basically no People dare to swim in that river because it is too dangerous. "

After finishing speaking, the waiter nodded at Qianshou and smiled, stretched out his hand to accept the dozen or so red bills handed over, and after receiving the tip, the waiter consciously left the box.

After hearing what the waiter said just now, Qianshou's frown relaxed quietly, and a pensive look began to appear on his face.

Seeing Qian Shou's pensive look, Yun Xuan rolled his eyes, and couldn't help asking: "Qian Shou, what did you think of?"

"If my guess is correct, the river that the waiter mentioned just now has abnormally high and low tides is the location of King Qin's tomb." Qianshou raised his eyelids and said solemnly.

As soon as these words came out, several people at the table couldn't help but froze, looking at the blank expressions on their faces, it seemed that they didn't quite understand what Qian Shou meant.

When everyone was in a daze, Qianshou's flat voice sounded again.

"You know, unless it is sea water, ordinary rivers are very little affected by the gravitational force of lunar tides, and the small ones can be ignored. However, the water level difference between the river rising and ebbing that the waiter said is about half a meter. This is no longer usable. To describe it as abnormal, this is abnormal."

"You mean, that river is weird?" Fatty Li couldn't help asking.

"The river itself is not weird, what can make it weird, since it's not tidal gravity, then something else is causing trouble, and the thing causing trouble should be the tomb of King Qin below it."

After listening to Qian Shou's words, Yun Xuan's face was full of surprise, and at the same time as he smiled lightly, a little bit of surprise and anticipation flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"Good fellow, the tomb of King Qin is indeed here."
