The moment Shen Yanci touched the ancestral rubbings in a modern laboratory, the strong light dragged her into the rainy night of Jiangnan in the late Qing Dynasty.
What greeted her was not fine clothes and fine food, but an angry scolding from her stepmother holding a cutting knife: "You bitch, I ruined the longevity monument, and I'll use you to pay for it!"
She took out the rubbing bag hidden in her sleeve and stood up with a sneer.
In the eyes of others, the rubbings that are "a humble servant's livelihood" are, in the hands of a national-level rubbing master, a sharp knife in solving cases——
The smuggling route in the fake monument? She lightly covered it with cicada-wing rubbing paper, and the weathered cracks and machine scratches were immediately apparent;
Burnt secret messages in a fire? She is soaked in layers of pine smoke ink, and the hidden lines of coastal defense artillery pictures emerge with the ink halo;
Even on the forged rubbings in the court hall, she only needed to borrow a ray of sunlight to make the traces of cinnabar ageing invisible.
It's just that the road to breaking the situation cannot avoid the cold-faced naval officer.
When Lu Shiyan came to the door with half a piece of remnant rubbings, he frowned: "Miss Shen, please dig out the secrets in this stele, and I... Will use my body to counteract it."
Shen Yanci dipped his fingertips in ink and tapped on his official uniform: "Master Lu, rubbings are calculated on a square basis. Your clothes are not enough."
Later on the deck of the sunken ship, he protected her behind him, his blood-stained military uniform still smiling and saying: "I'll give you my life, is that enough?"
She looked at the rubbings as thin as cicada wings in her palm, and suddenly understood——
Hidden under this monument is not only the defense of the sea, but also the burning sincerity of him and her to guard the mountains and rivers together.
