123: Truth is also false when it is false
Pavilions and pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, rockery shadow walls, green grass, and fragrant flowers...... Everything you see in front of you is the most typical scenery of the Gangnam garden.
In the ancestral land of the Snake Clan, or the Nuwa Clan, such a Jiangnan garden suddenly appeared, which was too strange and abrupt. Even if there are various assumptions about the situation in the ancestral land in advance. However, when Zudi showed the tip of the iceberg its true face to these foreign visitors, it still made Cheng Li feel unexpected, so much so that he was surprised.
Cheng Li subconsciously turned his head and looked at Xue Yanxia. He frowned and asked, "What's going on? There is actually a garden in the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, what is it for?"
Between the snow and smoke and the eyebrows, there was also a blankness. She shook her head and said, "I don't know." It has been said before. I have a lot of memories, all of which have been lost. Through specific contacts, it may be possible to retrieve these memories. But until then, I can't remember. ”
Cheng Li was not too disappointed. He nodded and said, "Okay." So let's go in and have a look. Perhaps, you will remember something. ”
The two of them stepped out of the passage and into the garden. Just walked a few steps, suddenly, Cheng Li seemed to notice something, and quickly turned around. But I saw that the entrance and exit of the passage when I came in had disappeared as if by a miracle.
Cheng Li was taken aback, grabbed it quickly, and reached out to grope for the original location of the entrance, but he didn't touch anything. As far as the eye can reach, there is nothingness. It's as if there is no entrance or exit at all, and everything is just an illusion.
Xue Yanxia was also surprised. "It's the first time I've seen this kind of thing. Strange, why is this happening?"
Cheng Li exhaled lightly and said, "Forget it, let's not pursue it first." All in all, now we have no way back but to move on. Well, look, there's a couple of rooms over there, let's go in and have a look, and maybe we'll find something. ”
Xue Yanxia didn't have a better idea, so she could only nod in agreement. The two walked side by side, along the cobblestone path paved through the garden. Walking along the road, Cheng Li couldn't help frowning again. Said: "Here...... So quiet. It's really quiet. ”
"Quiet?"
Xue Yanxia was stunned, listened attentively, and immediately bowed her head slightly, and said, "Indeed." It's so quiet here. Not to mention that you can't hear human voices, there are no birds and insects. It's like...... It seems to ......"
After hesitating for a moment, Xue Yanxia finally shook her head and said, "I can't say it." All in all, something is very wrong. ”
Cheng Li said in a condensed voice: "Be careful. Then he reached into his arms, took out something and handed it to Xue Yanxia, and said, "This is for you, use it for self-defense." ”
Xue Yanxia looked at it and said in surprise: "This is not what you used to exchange love tokens with Xiaoqing? What? Could it be that you still have a lot of similar things?"
Having said that, the look between Xue Yanxia's eyebrows was already quite unkind. It is necessary to know that since it is exchanged with each other as a token of love, it should be unique and called sincere. What would it be like if you had prepared a lot of similar things in advance and gave one to a girl when you saw them?
Cheng Li knew that she had misunderstood and explained: "No. This is called a pistol, and there are many different styles. What I gave to Xiaoqing before was a PPK pistol. This one for you is ***92F. Then he explained a few words about the difference between PPK and ***92F. It also instructs Xue Yanxia how to use this pistol.
Although Xue Yanxia was ignorant, she finally figured out that Cheng Li didn't just take something out, so he used it as a token of love to deceive Xiaoqing. The complexion is a little better.
She is already smart, although she has never been exposed to firearms before, but after Cheng Li explained it once, she knew it immediately. As for the accuracy of shooting, since Xue Yanxia is a first-class master in itself, and the fundamental principle of pistol shooting is not much different from firing a hidden weapon. So Xue Yanxia walked while holding the 92F to practice, and soon mastered the essentials. Not to mention 100 shots, at least there is no problem in 100 steps.
The two practiced as they walked. Walking through the garden, before walking to the houses in the courtyard, I happened to run out of magazines. Cheng Li casually took out two more magazines and handed them to Xue Yanxia and asked her to put them away. He climbed up to the hallway of the house and shouted, "Hey, is there anyone there?"
Cheng Li replied only with bursts of echoes. Cheng Li waited for a while, but still no one came out, he shook his head and said, "It seems that there is no one here." Let's go in and have a look. ”
Xue Yanxia naturally has no opinion. At that moment, the two of them walked into the room and looked around.
The house is huge. There are a total of five courtyards. The so-called one entry is a hall in the middle, and two rows of side rooms on the left and right, which is called one entry. Five entrances, that is, a total of five halls, five wings.
How many houses come in, not randomly. All dynasties and dynasties have had extremely strict regulations on this. Ordinary people's houses are only allowed to enter a maximum of three. Only when you have gained fame or become an official can you build and live in more than three houses. The houses of the first rank of the imperial court, or the hereditary prince, were allowed to have a maximum of seven. The houses of the five entrances belong to the level of "marquis".
If the Bodhisattva Man or the original infinite were here, with their knowledge as people in the court, they would be able to associate more, and even have the opportunity to speculate the true identity of the owner of this house based on these clues.
But whether it is Cheng Li or Xue Yanxia, they have no knowledge of the rules and regulations of the imperial court, as well as the norms and forms of houses. So in the end, they just think it's a big house, that's all.
The front and back five houses include the main hall, the side hall, the flower hall, the bedroom, the guest room, the kitchen, the firewood room, and the utility room...... And so on and so forth. The furnishings in each room are all exquisite.
Let's say, guest rooms. Inside the guest room, of course, there is a bed. The bed was made of rosewood, lacquered with carved gold, decorated with ivory, and hung with a tasseled brocade tent. The tassels on it were made of gold threads. And the bedding on the bed is all the finest silk. Not only is it smooth and new, but it is also embroidered with all kinds of flowers, and the embroidery is so delicate and gorgeous that even if it is a tribute to the Imperial Palace, its craftsmanship is nothing more than that.
In the room, there is also a candlestick. It was adorned with crystal pearls and seven-colored gemstones. is so extravagant, at first glance, it seems to be a bit of a nouveau riche.
But in fact, the owner of this place cannot be a nouveau riche. Because although the furniture is beautiful and luxurious, everything is beautifully chosen. These many valuable furnishings are placed together, and they do not feel crowded or tacky, but rather comfortable and harmonious. I think these things are inherently supposed to be placed like this.
Cheng Li and Xue Yanxia turned around a few more rooms. I saw that there was a bedroom, a study, a dining room, and a living room. In the living room, there are carved rosewood chairs, and the chairs are covered with brocade cushions, all of which are delicate and gorgeous.
There are calligraphy and paintings on the walls. The middle hall is a landscape, hazy and hazy, and chic. Carefully - look, the payment is actually Wu Daozi's handwriting. There is a couplet next to it. "I often get drunk without drinking, and I don't read for a reason. ”
Although Cheng Li doesn't know much about these poems and books, he also feels that the artistic conception of these two simple and straightforward sentences is extremely free and easy, and it teaches people to be fascinated.
Leaving the living room, he spun around for a while. Suddenly, they saw a door with a gold knocker and a very ornate carving. The door was just hidden, so Cheng Li didn't think about it at all, and casually pushed open the door and walked in.
Cheng Li never thought of it again. Pushing open the door, he suddenly walked into a wonderland that was even more bizarre than a dream, which he had never experienced in his life and would never have imagined!
