23. Chapter 23

By the time Su Mu "came out", there were less than three days left before the start of his high school. Wang Lao had already moved into Sujiazhuang on the second day of his retreat.

This wise and open-minded old man and the grandfather of the Su family hit it off at first sight, and was attracted by the countless environments of Sujiazhuang, which is superior to the outside world, and has only lived in Sujiazhuang for less than half a month, and the old man announced that he would live in Sujiazhuang for a long time. Elder Wang's decision not only stunned Su Mu, but also shocked his children.

"A few days ago, didn't you always say that you were waiting for me to be admitted to university in the imperial capital?" Su Mu was a little stupid, it turned out that the shelf life of the famous scholar's words was less than half a month! It's up.

Wang Lao glanced at him faintly, "My old man has been busy all his life, and his health is not good, and my children have long wanted me to retire with peace of mind, but my old man has not been able to put down the three-foot podium, and he has not been able to make up his mind." Now it's okay, this sudden illness, coupled with your Sujiazhuang's environment, I think it's time to retire. ”

Su Mumo, is it really good that your old man is so fickle?

"You can't say that! You see, I have only lived in Sujiazhuang for a few days, and my health has improved a lot, and I believe that as long as it takes a while, my body will definitely be able to get better.

And Brother Su said that the environment of Sujiazhuang has helped me a lot, and I have been cured of illness and health without illness! Such a nice place, how could my old man miss it? I have decided to buy this empty house next to your house and be neighbors with your grandparents. Wouldn't it be easier to care about your studies when you become neighbors? Besides, I have been a teacher for decades, although I dare not say that there are peach and plum all over the world, there are still some students who are teachers, no matter which subject in the future, there is always one suitable for you! ”

Who is Mr. Wang? has been a teacher all his life, to put it mildly, as soon as the students under his hands pout, he can know what these little guys are going to do, not to mention Su Mu, a hairy little guy?

After speaking, he ignored Su Mu anymore, and picked up the hoe that he specially asked his son to buy and went to the medicine garden to hoe grass.

Su Mu burst into tears! The leisurely paradise of good ancestors and grandchildren, first came to Yan Hao, and now there is an old man, Su Mu has a hunch that with the passage of time, the population of Sujiazhuang will become more and more! Is there any reason for this? looked at his grandfather pitifully, hoping that his grandfather could make decisions for him.

But no! Actually not! His grandfather actually carried a hoe and went down to the ground with the old man who was disrespectful to the old man with a smile! I can't bear it!

When Su Mu was sitting there in a daze, his shoulder was patted, Su Mu turned his head and looked over with tears in his eyes, but it was Yan Hao holding a white handkerchief and handing it to him.

"Don't cry, Old Man Wang has unique insights in history and calligraphy and painting appraisal, and his family's influence in the imperial capital is not small, plus the old man is full of peach and plum all over the world, you can get his old man's blue eyes, how many people can't ask for a good thing."

These things were all investigated by Yan Hao using the special channels of their special forces, and they were absolutely true.

Su Mu snorted, he didn't really cry out loud, but the depression in his heart couldn't dissipate.

"It's not that I really don't like to be neighbors with that old man, but I just didn't expect this to be the result. It is really speechless to get such a huge 'surprise' as soon as you get out of the customs. ”

"Speaking of retreats, have you made your talismans?" Yan Hao changed the topic at the right time.

At the mention of this, Su Mu was so proud that he even forgot that he was still depressed just now, took out a rectangular, colorless and transparent jade jade card, and handed it to Yan Hao as if offering a treasure.

"That! This is the jade spirit rune I made, which is better than the paper spirit rune, I don't know how much. ”

Yan Hao took the spirit talisman in Su Mu's hand, he didn't look at it carefully just now, he only felt that the jade plate in Su Mu's hand was not brilliant except for the good water head, it was still colorless, and this thing was the most expensive among the jadeite.

When he held it in his hand, Yan Hao immediately felt a comfortable breath coming from his hand. Looking at it again, the thickness of this jade plaque is only about one millimeter, and one side of the jade plaque is engraved with a complex pattern in the technique of Yin carving, which is neither the common cloud pattern, nor the so-called bird seal inscription, and even the runes used in the Dao capital that he has come into contact with are not the same. After watching it for a long time, Yan Hao felt that he was almost sucked in.

"Profit!" When he came back to his senses, the cold sweat on Yan Hao's forehead had already flowed down.

"Be careful, what is engraved on this is a real Taoist spirit pattern, which is not at the same level as the one used by those Taoist priests in the outside world today. Ordinary people will be sucked in if they look at it for a long time. Su Mu put down the hand that had just committed the murder and reminded him insincerely.

"Got it!" Yan Hao replied with palpitations. Then move on to the back of the jade plaque.

The back of the jade plaque is carved with a lifelike animal, but when he looks closely, Yan Hao can't tell what kind of animal the animal is. Yan Hao didn't dare to concentrate on looking at the carved things anymore, for fear of being hit again.

"This is the spirit rune?" Yan Hao was very curious, on such a jade plate less than a millimeter thick, it was both yin and yang carving, which was really not something that ordinary people could do.

"That's right! That's it! Su Mu reached out and pinched the bridge of his nose, thinking of the experience of the past few days, it was really not a good memory.

At the beginning, Su Mu carefully cut the jadeite into several jade plaques of the same size, which was very smooth, after all, it was just a matter of slicing the jadeite. That whole piece of colorless jadeite really cut out a lot of jade plaques. It was enough for him to replace all the spirit runes in Sujiazhuang three times.

After thinking about it, Su Mu divided these jade plaques into three parts, took out one of them, and prepared to carve them with great interest.

However, what happened next made him suffer enough. took the jade jade carving knife specially bought, injected spiritual power, and carved it on the jade plate, but failed again and again.

After breaking five jade cards one after another, Su Mu had already exhausted his spiritual power, looking at the jade fragments on the table, Su Mu wanted to cry without tears, and thought that it would be easy for him to engrave the spirit rune! But you can't take anything for granted!

Picking up a new jade card again, Su Mu stared at the jade card in a daze, but his mind didn't know where it had drifted. At this time, Su Mu emptied all his minds, and unconsciously, he condensed his divine consciousness into the shape of a carving knife and carefully traced it on the jade plate. When one piece is finished, pick up the other piece and redraw it.

This time, Su Mu sat for a day and a night, and when Su Mu came back to his senses, the right hand side was already full of drawn spirit runes, and there were only more than thirty pieces left in the place where the blank jade plaque was originally placed on the left hand.

Su Mu: ....... Is this the so-called intentionally planting flowers that do not bloom, and unintentionally planting willows and willows into the shade?

Picking up a blank jade plate again, Su Mu remade zuò according to the method in his memory. To his surprise, this time it failed......

Su Mu didn't believe in evil, so he picked up the block again. Unconsciously, nine more jade plates were carved, and when the eleventh jade plate was broken, Su Mu finally succeeded! Tears welled up in his eyes.

It is said that practice makes perfect, and there is a lot to do, and later, as long as Su Mu picks up the jade plate and transports the carving knife of divine consciousness condensation, a piece of extremely accurate spirit rune will be freshly baked. What made Su Mu happiest was that using this method to engrave spirit talismans, Su Mu felt that his cultivation was gradually rising.

But after all, there are not many jade plaques left, and when the last jade plaque is engraved with a spirit rune, there will be no more. Su Mu sighed, this thing is really too consumed, and he hasn't played enough.

"Now that the jade spirit rune is ready, when are you going to replace the paper spirit gathering array?"

"Don't worry? I've just come out of the country, so I'll have to rest for two days before I get back to work! Su Mu smiled, "You...... Isn't there anything to ask me? "So calm, Su Mu always felt that the evil taste in his heart was about to move.

Yan Hao shook his head, "If you can say it, you will sue me if I don't ask, if you can't say it, I just say that I have broken my mouth, and you will not be able to sue me." So what am I going to do with all that effort? ”

"......" Su Mu choked, this seems to be right...... This person is quite suitable for cultivating the truth.

"Besides, I have been recuperating in Sujiazhuang for three months. Originally, I wanted to rest for a while, but the matter of our going to Baishui City to gamble on stones this time was known by the people of our brigade, and they also knew that my injury was healed, and if I didn't return to the team, our boss would personally take action to arrest people, and I would definitely have no good fruit to eat when I went back! Isn't that where you're going to start school in three days? I just thought, after you change the jade spirit rune, I can also go back to the army to eliminate the vacation. ”

"You're going back?" Su Mu suddenly felt a sense of reluctance in his heart, although he disliked Yan Hao in various ways, this guy helped him a lot, since Yan Hao came to Sujiazhuang, he did all the dirty work inside and out, and he never complained. Now that Leng Buding said that he was leaving, he was really a little reluctant.

"Don't worry, I like Sujiazhuang very much, I don't have any relatives, in the three months I have lived here, you and Grandpa Su have been so good to me, I can't repay it, if I have a holiday in the future, I will come back to see you, and by the way, I will help you and Grandpa Su work." Do you think it's good? Yan Hao asked with a smile, maybe he could move his hukou to Sujiazhuang and settle down? Well, this one can have it.

"Of course you can, anyway, Sujiazhuang is just our two ancestors and grandchildren, and you don't have much more than one, but you just don't forget what you said when the time comes." Su Mu felt very calm about himself, but the little expression on the corner of his mouth that was almost upturned was betraying him.

Yan Hao is also very satisfied, and has won the right to come to Sujiazhuang often in the future, and nothing can make him happier than this.
