Chapter 65: The Mysterious Lan Mansion
"I have a layer of grease on my hand, which I touched on the box in the middle of the warehouse, and you see, my fingernails have been scratched off some of it."
As he spoke, he handed him his hand again.
Wang Jingxing pursed his lips, then picked up her little hand and looked at it carefully, the nails were round and short, and he couldn't see any grease at all, he touched her palm again, it was indeed slippery and greasy.
"To keep the tea moisture?... No, ordinary tea leaves are only sealed in ordinary wooden boxes. In order to prevent the tea from being stained with other problems, it is necessary to be extra careful when choosing wood, and not to allow the wood to be coated with grease and deteriorate. ”
Xia Zhuyi let her touch her hands: "Do you smell it again?"
Wang Jingxing held her hand and sniffed lightly on the tip of his nose, except for the faint fragrance of roses, there was no other taste, and then he sniffed closer, and the tip of his nose swept lightly on his fingers, and both of them were shocked and numb like an electric shock.
Wang Jingxing hurriedly let go of her hand, "A smell of stinky sweat!"
Xia Zhuyi almost didn't fall into the Xiaolongjiang River. He withdrew his hand and took out a small box from his bosom,
"This wooden box makes me panic, see for yourself!"
Wang Jingxing took the box and said angrily: "You obviously took the box and let me see your hand, you deliberately want to take advantage of me, right......?"
"How dare you refute the words of an adult?"
The wooden box is the size of two palms, some flat, and it is coated with a layer of grease, and after it is closed, it is well sealed.
Both of them thought it was a moisture-proof box.
Sniff again, a smell of cypress grease,
"Made of cypress?" Wang Jingxing looked at Xia Zhuyi and affirmed, "Do you know where Sichuan and Shu are rich in cypress?"
"Of course I know, first of all, do you say I'm very good?"
Wang Jingxing rolled his eyes: "Amazing! ”
Xia Zhuyi: "Yuyang is there, and it is distributed in central and northern Sichuan, with slow growth and hard and strong material. But that doesn't tell if the box came from these places?"
Wang Jingxing: "There are many rivers here, and it is most convenient to take the waterway. ”
As he spoke, Wang Jingxing took out a remnant arrow from his bosom and said proudly, "You think you're powerful, look at what I'm holding?"
"Lanfu archers' arrows?!How did you get them?"
"They're so weak, it's not easy to get an arrow?
Xia Zhuyi took the arrow and studied it carefully, except that he found that it was very sharp and delicate, and found nothing special.
"I'm clumsy and can't see the doorway......"
"You first say that I am not powerful, and if you do, I will answer your questions. ”
Xia Zhuyi was stunned for a moment, and then giggled,
"It's not just amazing, it's just ...... Uh, my lord, what should I do if I run out of words...... Hey, hey, hey!"
"Hmph, come and take a closer look!"
Xia Zhuyi hurriedly stretched his neck in cooperation, leaned over and stared at it for a moment.
In fact, Wang Jingxing didn't know whether Xia Baisong was friend or foe, but he couldn't help but want to share his new discoveries with Xia Zhuyi.
"There are many types of arrows, this is called triangular arrows, the arrows are triangular, with barbs and blood grooves, the armor-piercing ability and lethality are very strong, but the manufacturing process is complex and the cost is high. ”
Zhu Yi was shocked: "You mean this is an arrow used in the army?!" looked up just to stare at his close eyes, breathing staggered.
Wang Jingxing: "I have seen similar arrows in the Great Commander's Palace, which were seized from outside the fortress, and since then, our dynasty has also begun to make this kind of three-edged arrows in batches, but because of the high cost, it has always been a scarce product in the army." And this arrow in Lanfu is even more delicate and sharp than that,"
Xia Zhuyi: "Mrs. Lan's escort is related to the army?"
Wang Jingxing: "The archers that night were disorganized and slow, not like they were the products of the army. ”
Xia Zhuyi: "It's okay, otherwise, it's really a shocking case." ”
Wang Jingxing: "However, this kind of defense and siege method is very similar to the army, or it is very similar to the style of high-ranking officials of Houmen. ”
Xia Zhuyi praised from the bottom of his heart: "You are so amazing! You know a lot! Knowledgeable people are so charming!"
"Thanks to the compliment, in fact, you know a lot. ”
Xia Zhuyi put the arrow into the cypress box, closed it and put it back in his arms, stretched his waist, made a hitch, and lay down backwards, stretching his limbs.
"In this situation, I want to recite a poem. ”
Hmm, Xia Zhuyi cleared his throat:
"Tonight's moon is full and bright, Brother Wang and Sister Wang are busy solving the case, and they are full of enthusiasm, brave and righteous to see growth. ”
Brother Wang laughed lowly, one by one, it was mellow and mellow, knocking on Zhuyi's heart, and he also learned to clear Zhuyi's throat:
"I don't read, I am greedy and playful in fighting, I am busy farming and investigating cases, and I follow Brother Wang to build Bashu!"
"Ha, Brother Wang, did you make a poem for me, hahaha, I like it so much! Why are you so powerful, the Riba people in the spring and the white snow, just open your mouth. ”
"The one who is close to the ink is black. ”
A breeze blew, and the river was flooded with light and dark microwaves, and the still boats rose and fell with the waves, wave after wave gentle.
The night breeze here is really pleasant.
"Let's leave tomorrow, let's take the waterway instead. ”
No one responded, Wang Jingxing turned his head to take a look, and found that the person had closed his eyes and was breathing evenly.
He smiled and shook his head helplessly, and naturally wanted to get up and hug her, his hand just touched her sleeve,
Suddenly, he was a little annoyed, could it be that he was used to hugging people tonight?
The hand changed its position and poked her arm instead.
"Well, walked back...... You can't get ...... back."
"Oh, I'll go where you go", Xia Zhuyi rubbed his eyes, got up and followed.
Early the next morning, Yu County Shou squatted outside Wang Jingxing's wing early, and when he was allowed to go in, he began to chatter:
"Your status is expensive, you really don't need to risk your life and patrol in person. The Prime Minister has been kind to me, and I have already told you to cooperate with your work well, and I suggest that you check in a rich and safe place, so as not to worry the Prime Minister. ”
"It's not a bother. ”
“...... My lord, you are in such a hurry, and the subordinate has a lot to report to you. ”
"Let's report in writing"
“...... There is also the matter of setting up a private school and inviting a teacher, and the lower officials have found a few little experts in farming, I hope you can interview in person......" Yu County Shou had already inquired about Wang Jingxing's preferences, and said with a purpose.
"Yu County has a heart, and this official will entrust you with carte blanche to handle it. ”
"In the face of these people who have some skills, the lower officials can't convince them, and I ask you to stay in Yuyang for a few more days!"
Wang Jingxing frowned, there had been a lot of delay on the road, but he couldn't stay here any longer.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to refuse, the door "creaked" open, and a little beauty Tingting walked in, with autumn waves in her eyes and her eyebrows.
"My lord, my beloved daughter Xiaojuan, I am familiar with Yuyang, and I am ready for my lord to send at any time. ”
The little beauty was dressed a little boldly and bullied forward.
Wang Jingxing's face was cold, "If you can't do it, you will change people!"
Gritted his teeth in his heart: Yu County Shou, the official of the Lan Mansion has not yet found out, do you intend to drag the official in Yuyang County? ?
"You're so self-conscious!" he said, got up, and went out coldly.
