"There's still time, let's go around the other side, just help our dean bring some familiar Xuan to make a sustenance. Feng Yuan put all the yellow paper in his hand into the trunk of the car, and saw Xu Mu staring at the signboard of Ronghuazhai opposite, and pushed the boat down the river.

Seeing the store sign, Feng Yuan knew that the owner of this store should be Lin Huachun, who led the paper spirit to elope last time.

"Yes. Xu Mu nodded, and then put the yellow paper in his hand into the trunk, and went in to take a look, the paper spirit really ran back all the way?

Ronghua Zhai is the door face of the five-bay room, and the walnut wood couplets with gold paint are hung on both sides of the door, "the jade dew grinds to the thick fog, and the silver paper dyes the light clouds." The couplet seems to be some years old, and the gold paint in some places has been dull and faded, but it just sets off the charm of the old store to the fullest.

The shop is very quiet, there are seven or eight rows of red lacquer lattice longitudinally, and the outer rows are displayed in several rows of raw Xuan, cooked Xuan and semi-cooked Xuan, and the row closest to the wall is plain white albums, letterheads, antique couplets and other rice paper products.

Under each layer of lattice shelves, the palm-sized label is categorized with the words and prices of "wax xuan, alum xuan, color xuan, four feet, five feet, shakuhachi screen, zhang two, double ideas, ribs" and so on, so that customers can find the varieties and specifications they want. The labels are all handwritten brush words, and the font is handsome and elegant, revealing a strong bookish atmosphere.

"All the rice paper on the shelves is in stock, the two of you can look at it casually, and call me at any time if you need to be introduced. After the middle-aged woman with a high bun greeted them, she picked up the rag in her hand again and silently wiped a pair of wooden interstitial screens placed on the stuffy cabinet beside her.

At the end of the main entrance against the wall, there is an extremely long glass case, and above the cabinet hangs a framed word, "Righteousness, innocent heirloom". Two curtains hung from either side of the glass case, which seemed to lead to the inner courtyard.

Xu Mu and Feng Yuan walked a few steps inside, only to see what was displayed in the glass case, which was not paper, but a handscroll several meters long.

"Qingming Riverside Picture?" Xu Mu stared at the handscroll through the glass, the content on the painting was too familiar, but the original version of this painting seems to be in the Forbidden City, right? The inscription at the beginning of the handscroll is very similar to the font above the cabinet, and it is estimated that it was made by the same person.

"It's a one-to-one imitation, you look at this bridge, the lines are too astringent, the thickness of the wooden strips at the bottom of the bridge is uneven, and the intersection position is not enough, as a boundary painting, it is a little distorted. The genuine product not only has smooth lines, the wooden pillars are slender and symmetrical, and the structure of the rainbow bridge at the bottom is also extremely regular. Feng Yuan casually pointed to an arch bridge above to answer his questions.

"Brother, you're so amazing!" The courier brother's dark eyes are full of worship, the male god is simply an artificial encyclopedia, with its own search engine attributes, omniscient.

"The main thing is that I happened to study the bridge in the painting. Feng Yuan rubbed the stupid hair on the top of his pet's head, "This wooden bridge belongs to the stacked beam arch bridge, which is our unique wooden arch structure in China. In addition, it is completely connected by a mortise and tenon structure, and there is a gap called a diamond leg in the middle of the mortise and tenon joint to absorb shock. It can provide a lot of references for the design, calculation and construction of reinforced concrete structures and steel tube structure stacked beam arch bridges. Such a large span and width as shown on the map has been lost after the Song Dynasty, and the Qingming Shanghe map has become a good research material. ”

"Sister, I dreamed of that girl again just now, I still think that I should try it according to the calendering method she said!" A young man wearing black-rimmed glasses excitedly lifted the curtain and walked into the shop from the back door, and found that there were still guests standing by the glass cabinet, so he apologized to Xu Mu and Feng Yuan embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I didn't scare you, right?"

He wears a clean white shirt, his eyebrows are gentle, and when he laughs, he has two dimples, like the warm sun in March, which shines comfortably.

Xu Mu hurriedly shook his head, this person should be Lin Huachun, right?

"You, you, go crazy at the mention of making wax paper. Before Feng Yuan could speak, the woman carrying the rag counted down the bespectacled youth first.

The young man hurriedly turned around to pick up the rag in the woman's hand, and flatteringly wiped two handfuls for her, "Sister, it's no problem this time, I have sorted out the five processes she said a few times, and the more I think about it, the more reasonable I feel, but it's a pity that she didn't finish the next few dishes." ”

The middle-aged woman thought he was clumsy, so she snatched the rag back, "Lin Huachun, didn't you say that it was okay to fail dozens of times before?"

Youth:..................

"What's more, how can the method of dreaming be reliable? You should watch the series, how many episodes will you finish?"

"Sister~, even if I don't succeed, I can always sum up some experience and let the descendants of our Lin family continue to try. Doesn't Dad often say that life is short, but skills last forever. ”

"Okay, okay, okay, I know, I'll come to the store these days, if you want to try it, how to say, it's also our father's wish to restore wax paper. But there's only one, don't make yourself sick like last time. ”

"Know, know~"

Xu Mubian flattened his lips and dreamed that a girl told him how to make wax paper?

"Accompany me to see the familiar announcement over there. Feng Yuan patted the courier brother on the shoulder and motioned for him to accompany him to the grid next to him to have a look.

Where will the paper spirit be if it comes back?" Xu Mu followed behind Feng Yuan, looking at the rows of red lacquer shelves, trying to find a paper that looked similar to the wax paper in the library.

"Sprite, can you feel the demonic aura of the paper spirit last time?" Xu Mu hid in the corner of the checkered frame, pinched the unicorn beads on the backpack, and asked quietly.

[The second row of shelves against the wall, the second one from the left hand of the fourth floor.] After a few seconds, Fu Zhu replied slowly, [But its demonic energy is much weaker than before, and it is not enough to take a bite. 】

Xu Mu: ..................

"Brother, I'll go to the back row of shelves and have a look. Xu Mu said hello to Feng Yuan, and then walked to the position where Fu Zhu said.

"Hmm. Feng Yuan, who was holding the double-ribbed rice paper, pouted his back and hooked the corners of his lips, and responded casually.

[Why are you again?] Paper Spirit's voice was as arrogant as ever, but it was faintly weak.

The courier brother carefully looked at the shelves on the fourth floor, and there was an ordinary orange-red rice paper on that position, which was simply very cheap compared to the six-figure value of the wax paper in the library.

Xu Mu: ..................

is so compromised to pretend to be an ordinary sex propaganda, mother, you are really ...... Great work.

There was no pattern at all on that color xuan, and even the luster seemed to be much darker than before. Contact what Fu Zhu just said, is it because of the loss of its demonic energy?

"You're coming back to help him make wax paper?"

[Of course.] Paper Spirit sighed, as if he was a little haggard.

Xu Mu asked tentatively, "You fell into his dream?"

[The only way that this palace knows to communicate with him directly, but unfortunately, this method of dreaming is too hurtful, but only twice, the current demonic energy of this palace has been damaged by more than half, and I am afraid that I will have to re-enter the spiritual cultivation period after a while. The paper spirit's voice was a little low, and it could feel itself weakening rapidly. The Taoist priest who taught it the method of falling into dreams had never said that the demonic energy would be so badly damaged. Sure, there must be something wrong, could it be because of the broken life pattern that was taken away?

Ashwelling?

As if knowing Xu Mu's question, Fu Zhu lazily interjected, [It's similar to what you humans say about dormancy, its demonic energy dissipates too quickly, and it can't support its spirit body, so it can only start cultivating again. 】

"Is it worth it?" Xu Mu couldn't help but be a little surprised, in order to tell Lin Huachun about the method of making wax paper, the paper spirit actually lost so much demonic energy, and more than a hundred years of cultivation were so wasted, and he had to start from scratch?

[Of course it's worth it.] Since you're here, why don't you help Bengong tell him about the next few crafts directly?] Paper Ling was silent for a long time, and couldn't help but speak again.

"Me?"

[Bengong sues sù you, you sue sù him. You're all human, and he might believe what you say. The paper spirit is lonely, its time is running out, and its only wish is to be able to watch Lin Gongzi restore the wax paper.

It tried twice in the dream, but the man was still skeptical. Because the wear is so great, it doesn't dare to stay too long.

"He didn't disbelieve it, you should have heard it just now, he was going to try it the way he did in his dream. Xu Mu whispered to help Lin Huachun explain that most people won't take the method of dreaming seriously!

[The Nine Crafts Hongu only told him about the fifth, are you sure he will succeed?]

Xu Mu: ..................

I'm not sure.

"Okay, what do you want me to tell him, I'll go and tell you now. Xu Mu nodded. Anyway, it was a great help for it to be honest when it went back, and now it should help it pass on a word.

[To make wax paper, you need to dye it, apply sizing, filling powder, waxing, calendering, sprinkling gold, leveling, watermarking, and depicting these nine processes in order on the basis of the original papermaking. When Lin Gongzi tried before, he reversed the order of calendering and waxing, and there were also problems with the method of leveling, and the easiest thing to travel was to fill the powder and depict the two processes......] Hearing Xu Mu's agreement, Paper Ling couldn't wait to tell him all the problems.

"Wait a minute," the courier guy scratched his head, he had never heard of this lot of cumbersome processes, and it would be troublesome if he said it wrong, "Well, you better hide in my backpack and give me a teleprompter, in case he asks anything, you can answer it in time." ”

After a while, Xu Mu stubbornly walked up to the Lin family sisters and brothers who were still chatting, "I heard you talk about making wax paper just now, I suddenly remembered that there is a thread-bound book at home, it seems that the method of making pink wax paper has been mentioned, I remember the general content, are you interested in hearing it?"

Lin Huachun looked at him in astonishment, "What you said is true?"

"Hmm. Xu Mu nodded vigorously, the lord is very willing, I am a messenger.

"Boss, help me get a hundred of each of these three. Feng Yuan, who was standing on the shelf, raised the familiar announcement in his hand.

The sister of the Lin family went to help Feng Yuan pack rice paper, and Xu Mu began to repeat the words of the paper spirit to Lin Huachun.

At first, Lin Huachun was still a little suspicious in his heart, "It's good to know more information", but as a result, he was surprised to find that the method Xu Mu said was extremely similar to what he heard in his dream, and he also completed the step of depiction later.

He tried to ask a few professional questions about the process, as well as the problems he encountered when he failed before, and Xu Mu also answered them for him one by one.

When all the processes are connected in series, many of the problems that have plagued him for a long time are also solved.

"Thank you. Lin Huachun grabbed Xu Mu's arm hard, lifted the curtain and walked out quickly, he couldn't wait to rush back to the inner courtyard and start trying immediately.

"Actually, he should thank you. Xu Mu patted his backpack gently, the person who really helped Lin Huachun was not himself, but the paper spirit. Unfortunately, he may never know.

Paper Ling's voice was as light as smoke and sighed, [There is only so much that this palace can do for him. 】

Xu Mu suddenly realized something, "You like him?"

【What is a like?】

"Like, you're happy to see him. ”

[That Bengong shouldn't like him, because, Bengong only wants him to be happy. 】

A hundred years of penance, but from the beginning.

As long as he is happy.

Xu Mu: ..................

It wasn't until Lin Huachun's back disappeared behind the door curtain that Paper Ling said softly to Xu Mu, [Thank you. 】

On the way home, Feng Yuan, who was driving, knocked on the steering wheel casually and asked Xu Mu, "Do you have any books at home that talk about how to make wax paper?"

Xu Mu: ..................

Oops, it seems that I have never mentioned it to the male god, and I can suddenly hear the gossip.

"Brother, let me tell you something, you must believe me. Xu Mu said solemnly, he had always wanted to find an opportunity to say, it was better to choose a day than to hit the day, just today.

Feng Yuan raised his eyebrows, "Let's talk about it." ”

"From the day I arrived in Shanghai, I began to hear many strange sounds, and later I learned that those were the voices of youkai......"

"Can you hear the gossip?" Feng Yuan raised his eyebrows in surprise, he always thought that the little guy was able to communicate with his husband because of the Qilin Bead, but he didn't expect that it was the day he just turned eighteen years old that his Xu family's bloodline awakened.

"Well, the method of making wax paper just now is actually the paper spirit telling me. Xu Mu lowered his head guiltily, "I didn't want to hide it from you on purpose, I just wanted to find a suitable opportunity to speak." After all, it sounds so weird. I'm sorry. ”

"It doesn't matter, you've grown up and have the right to keep your own secrets. Feng Yuan generously stretched out his hand and rubbed his pet's head, I also have a lot of things I want to tell you slowly.

"Brother, you're so good!" The boulder in his heart fell to the ground, and he was relaxed, Xu Mu looked at the handsome side face of his male god, and couldn't help but pounce on it and rub it like a puppy.

Feng Yuan knocked on the steering wheel anxiously, if it wasn't for the highway, he really wanted to pounce on someone who was rubbing around.

The first thing the courier brother did when he returned to Shanghai was to go to the courier point to make up for the backlog of packages. Feng Yuan was afraid that he would deliver it too late, so he drove to help him deliver it together.

The other packages in Xu Mu's hand were all delivered very smoothly, except for a package the size of a tissue box, not only the address was wrong, but the recipient's phone number was also empty, and then looking at the sender's information, there was no phone number at all. Xu Mu had no choice but to call the proprietress who had already gotten off work for instructions.

The proprietress asked him to bring the package back first, and then send it back to the courier point tomorrow for processing.

Qian Liang sent a text message, the dormitory manager was going to come to roll call at night, Xu Mu, who had been arrested once, did not dare to be absent again, and was pressed by Feng Yuan on the co-pilot and kissed him fiercely before temporarily returning to the dormitory. So, the package with an unknown owner was temporarily brought back to the dormitory by Xu Mu and the sustenance shells he brought to his roommate.

The next morning, Xu Mu was woken up by a chaotic noise.

"Damn, who has a problem with me, cut all the buttons on Lao Tzu's shirt!"

"Damn, the buttons on my jeans are gone!"
