Chapter 140: Strange Fragrance

"Listening to what these perfumers say, I don't know what is so wonderful about the starfall." Bai Feiruo was very curious, and asked while looking around. "That one smells good just now, but it seems to have added some kind of magic fragrance."

"I don't know." Lin Yu took a sip of tea.

"Didn't you help Qingqing make the most adjustments to the recipe of the incense? You don't know the way? Bai Feiruo was a little unconvinced.

"Those are a few incense products that she has prepared herself, and I haven't asked about the family heirlooms."

Qingqing has prepared several incense products by herself, and Lin Yu has helped to identify and adjust the fragrance, so she knows what to do. But Qingqing's family passed down several strange fragrances, Qingqing was made alone in the secret room, Lin Yu didn't touch it, and he didn't even ask much.

"So, I'm curious too." Lin Yu said with a smile, "Just listen to Qingqing, I think she should at least introduce it." ”

At this time, Qingqing on the stage was indeed introducing this incense product, her voice was neither high nor low, very calm and soft, "It is rumored that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Western Regions Yue's national tribute soul rejuvenation incense three. As big as a swallow's egg, black as a mulberry, burn this incense, the sick smell it, and those who die less than three days will be alive after being scented. Now that time has passed, it is not known whether it is because of this strange fragrance. However, my ancestors were very obsessed with these legendary strange fragrances, and spent their whole lives studying these things, and also prepared an interesting incense product, Xingluo Rain, which is known as the rain falling on the stars. ”

"Are you really a Gu family? Why don't you have the surname Wen? One of the three chief old men asked a little disbelievingly. And isn't the perfumer family always passed on to children and not daughters?

"A hundred years ago, my ancestors changed their surnames, and I learned it from my mother." Qingqing smiled and said with some sighs. "As for the question of whether to pass on the son or not to the daughter, I may probably be the last Gu family bloodline?"

"I don't think Miss Wen will lie about this."

Seeing that everyone's attention was involved in whether Qingqing was true or not, the heirs of the Gu family, Princess Qinghe played a round game. She herself is not very interested in whether Qingqing is really the Gu family, in her opinion, the Gu family is just a perfume family like the Feng family, but she is not very clear about the many legends about the Gu family's secret incense. Now she is even more curious about the magic of this legendary starfall rain.

"You'd better explain what's so interesting about this starfall rain." Princess Qinghe stopped the others from questioning Qingqing and turned to Qingqingdao.

"The fragrance of this starry rain is wonderful—needless to say, after all, everyone here is a master perfumer, and all kinds of wonderful fragrances have seen a lot."

Qingqing first complimented the people present, and then said with a smile, "Legend has it that this starfall rain is very interesting, that is, it can predict the weather of the next day, if there is a faint starlight in the smoke, it will rain on the second day." However, because of the complex recipe and the precious spices, I also succeeded in formulating it for the first time, and I only spent a thousand gold to prepare one pill, and I don't know whether the legend of the road is true or false. ”

It was an early summer night when the night sky was clear, and Lin Yu could see the bright moonlight and silver stars from the window, and there was no sign of rain on the second day.

Bai Feiruo also smiled, "It won't rain tomorrow, so we don't know if what Lu Dao Qingqing said is true or not." ”

"Don't talk about us, I'm afraid that Qingqing doesn't know if it's true or not." Lin Yu didn't believe much about this, "It's too absurd to say that the soul returning incense, if there is really a soul returning incense, why don't you see Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the world?" ”

More than two people muttered to themselves, and the rest of the guests in the hall also whispered, but Qingqing was not affected by it, and still lit incense. Her movements have their own demeanor, which is different from the popular incense art at this time, and it is really like an ancient style, so that those perfumers believe in her identity a lot.

The incense pill was very small, only slightly larger than a thumb, but the incense burner was also a small incense burner the size of a palm, which complemented each other perfectly. Qingqing's incense burner is specially made by someone, with an imitation Han copper gilt silver Boshan furnace, the style is ancient, after burning incense, the smoke is faint for a while from the Boshan furnace imitation fairy mountain, there is also a bit of fairy. The aroma is slightly sweet at the beginning, feeling like a quiet night, as the aroma gradually thickens, it slowly becomes more and more gentle and sweet, such as watching flowers on a moonlit night, sailing in the wind, and the smeller is fluttering.

Lin Yu and Bai Feiruo are the same, Lin Yu is especially great, and can't help but sigh, "I remember that at that time, in the Hou Mansion, dragging the sick and weak body, the future was uncertain, and I couldn't live in fear. Qingqing comforted me at that time and said that she had the skills to support me and the two of us, so that I didn't have to worry. I thought to myself, at her age, she can only prepare some ordinary spices, even if she can get by, it will be difficult, how embarrassing is it to drag her down? No, she really has thaumaturgy. ”

When Bai Fei met Lin Yu and Qingqing, it was the most difficult time for the two of them, Lin Yu was seriously ill, Qingqing had no way to ask for help, and she was almost desperate. When he thought about it at the moment, he couldn't help but feel a little sad for Lin Yu, but he still comforted Lin Yu, "Now that life is better, you don't have to worry." ”

As the two were talking, the fragrance of Qingwan gradually changed, and it turned into a faint and slightly refreshing fragrance, and everyone thought that the fragrance had reached the end and was about to admire. The smoke that was originally as light as a mist became thicker, and with Lin Yu's eyesight, he could see the silver light shining faintly in it. And the fragrance is gradually blooming at this time, like an epiphany blooming at night, it is a wonderful moment of coolness mixed with sadness.

Not only Lin Yu, but the guests and Qingqing who were close to the front also noticed the faint silver light in it, and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Is this legend true?" It turned out that Qingqing herself felt that this statement of starfalling rain was not very reliable, and muttered to herself.

Everyone is even more discussed, but it is easy to tell whether this legend is true or false, just see if it will rain tomorrow. However, regardless of whether this incense really has the function of predicting rain, the beauty of this fragrance is wonderful, and the layers are wonderful - superb, and it can indeed be called a strange fragrance. At this time, it has reached the time of the second and third watches, and the spirit of the hearable people has doubled, and everyone is not tired.

Because the fragrance lingers for a long time, in order to better appreciate the fragrance, perfumers certainly have a special method to remove the fragrance on this occasion.

However, this method did not work for this starfall rain, and all the incense tastings carried out since then almost could not remove the residual fragrance of this incense, which made all perfumers sigh to themselves.

After the last old man showed his incense, he sighed and said, "I thought that Miss Wen was bragging for claiming to be the Gu family, but I didn't expect this Xingluo rain to be so wonderful, no wonder it has always been the first family of the Gu family's fragrance." The old man was very confident in my Luhua, but he could only bow down to Gu Changhe's ancestors and sigh to himself. ”

Princess Qinghe said with a smile, "Why should the master be like this, it is a chance to see such a strange fragrance, and by chance, the master may not be able to mix the same wonderful incense in the future inspired by it." ”

The old man shook his head, "The princess praises me falsely, I can't do it anymore, I'm old, but the princess is open-minded, such a wonderful fragrance, I can see that it is already an opportunity for my generation, why bother to have Longwangshu." ”

"This year's incense tasting banquet is over, and the fragrance of the stars and rain brought by Miss Wen is unique, I think you should have no objections." Princess Qinghe saw that the time was almost up and announced the end.

"Naturally, there is no objection, the predecessors are so attained, it can be seen that the incense is endless." The Third Elder also said, "I hope you will continue to work hard, and when we meet again next year, we will bring more strange fragrances." ”

"Please go back and rest, and you can leave tomorrow." Princess Qinghe said, "However, there will be a trial of incense tomorrow, and if you are willing, please also attend the luncheon hosted by Qinghe." ”

"Naturally, I don't dare to refuse the princess's kindness."

Everyone said in unison, although Princess Qinghe does not touch power, she is quite favored by the emperor, and she has a good relationship with several princes, who dares to offend? Moreover, these perfumers don't have so many opportunities to participate in royal banquets, so how can they give up such an opportunity?

Princess Qinghe smiled with satisfaction, and then left with a group of palace maids and slaves, she left, and everyone returned to the previously arranged residence in twos and threes. Remember the latest text version updates as soon as possible

Due to several twists and turns, although Lin Yu's body has recovered, his physical strength is still weak, and he is already drowsy at this time, and he can hardly stand. However, Bai Feiruo had deep internal strength and excellent spirits, so he helped Lin Yu to go back, and Qingqing took a palace maid to take some incense, but he couldn't spare his hand. Yuan Jiangliu couldn't help but glance at Lin Yu a few more times, but he was still a little angry in his heart, thinking about finding a chance to talk to Lin Yu again. He made a promise to Yu Wenyi, and he was conceited, although Lin Yu categorically refused, he was still unwilling to give up.

At this time, it was past the third watch, close to the fourth watch, the moon passed in the middle of the day, the night was cold, Lin Yu was blown by the cool breeze, sobered up a little, and looked at himself leaning on Bai Feiruo, but he was also a little embarrassed. In ancient times, men and women did not kiss, although it was open to Tang at this time, it was still a bit inappropriate. Lin Yu shook his head, stood up straight, and walked slowly.

The beauty is like jade, the contaminated fragrance is wafting away, and Bai Scarlet can't help but feel a little lost. Then he came back to his senses, and Bai Feiruo secretly spit on himself for not being a gentleman, and he was like that womanizer who coveted the warm fragrance of nephrite.

However, when he raised his eyes and looked at the girl who was slowly walking alone in front of him, he couldn't help but think of that feeling all of a sudden, and his face turned slightly red, but the light was dim at night, so naturally no one noticed. Just like that, I spit on myself for a while, and I returned to my residence unconsciously.

Although they came together, men and women lived separately, Lin Yu and Qingqing shared a small suite, and Bai Scarlet was not a serious invited guest, so there was only one room to live in. He has always been vigilant for practicing martial arts, but he is easy to sleep, but this night his qi and blood fluctuated, and he couldn't even calm down when he practiced, and he had never had insomnia.

Early the next morning, Lin Yu, who went to bed late and got up early, opened his eyes with a faint dark circle, and then glanced out the window, and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Oh my God, it's really raining?"
