Chapter 17 The Void Against the Sea (12) Who pities the broken piano and the broken umbrella

Back in the room, Lin Chen began to digest the information he had received from Meng Qianchai.

In the spring of the sixteenth year of Emperor Ling, that is, ninety-six years ago, in the turbulent era when the river was going against the current, Meng Siqing, the ancestor of the Dream Family, moved eastward with about 100 people including his clansmen, and when he passed through the east of Huishan Mountain and the bank of the reverse river in Xiaochi County, the ancestors felt that they gave birth to a son and settled here. A few years later, the sea took shape, and there was no rain in the world, so the ancestors ordered people to build a dream workshop, produce water conservancy tools, and lead the water of the river to the nearby fields for irrigation by the surrounding people. Later, the water of the reverse river gradually became undrinkable, and the world began to have the legend of the sea falling, the ancestor of the dreamer Meng Siqing ordered people to build a dreamer workshop, and personally designed the water trap, and ordered the people to rush to the mountains to catch water, and use the excess water to relieve the residents of Xiaochi City, it was after the war, the population withered, and this move was countless people. Because some people saw that the ancestor of the Dream Family had dealings with people who practiced meditation, Meng Siqing still had the title of Dream Bodhisattva among the residents of Xiaochi City.

Meng Siqing later contracted a serious illness and died in the first year of Emperor Yong, at the age of thirty.

Lin Chen sighed, a big family with a family tree is good, it is recorded in such detail, and there are later generations who will praise the merits of their ancestors from generation to generation. But several questions also arose in Lin Chen's mind:

1. When the Mengjia established themselves in Xiaochi County, Meng Siqing was only twenty-three years old, how did she become the head of a big family, if she was the wife of the patriarch of the family, she might still be able to take power with a posthumous son, but it was impossible for her to let her child have her surname.

2. How did a young girl in her twenties possess such a supernatural mechanical skill?

3. There are not many iron tools that may be used in the water diversion tools, but the water traps are genuine pure iron tools, and the amount of iron used is quite a lot.

Fourth, if the above problems are solved by Meng Siqing with the power of the gods, then the last question has also become the most critical question, what kind of person is the person who cultivates meditation.

"Forget it, I don't want to. Lin Chen simply gave up thinking. Several problems plagued Lin Chen, making Lin Chen very uncomfortable.

"Why? Gave up? It seems that there are still things in the world that cannot be seen through by the eyes of hope. The little blind man teased.

"It's been almost a hundred years since things happened, and it's been so long, not to mention that there are still many things that can't be verified, you and I are God. ”

"I don't understand a little, why are you always entangled in other people's Meng Siqing's affairs, do you have to find out the eighteen generations of other people's ancestors when you become a relative?"

Of course, Lin Chen knew that the little blind man was alluding to himself and Meng Qingwu, but he was a fan of stories, when he saw an interesting storybook when he was a child, he could even read the book without sleeping for a few nights, and today he was indeed very curious about Meng Siqing's affairs.

"Then what am I going to do, do I have to chat with you. ”

"You forgot your arm. ”

"By the way, since the fever a few days ago, the runes on this left arm have been hidden, and I forgot if you don't say it. "Because I was on the road with everyone a few days ago, I was afraid that everyone would see the clues, and the road was tired, so that Lin Chen left this matter behind, and now he is very excited when he thinks about it.

Lin Chen hurriedly rolled up his sleeves and looked at his arm, "Well, it feels white, it's quite smooth." ”

"Narcissistic!

"Then you call it out. Lin Chenbai was a little blind man in the air on the side.

But before the little blind man could speak, the originally hidden rune on Lin Chen's left arm appeared, as if it had never disappeared on his arm.

"It, can it feel my consciousness?"

"It seems like this, and it feels very familiar to me, like the origin of the law, but it doesn't seem to be. Why don't you try to communicate it?"

"How do you communicate?"

"It's like communicating with me, talking to him in your consciousness. ”

"Okay, I'll try. Lin Chen stopped talking at the moment, but stared at the runes on his arm, concentrating his consciousness and communicating with the runes.

"I can't do it, I'm going to throw up, what a little kiss, water girl, you are not disgusting. The little blind man gagged on the side.

Lin Chen's face was also red, but he didn't expect that what he said to the runes in his mind was heard by the little blind man, "I used to call it that when I watched TV." ”

At this moment, there was a knock at the door, "Is my brother-in-law there?"

Lin Chen hurriedly concentrated his consciousness and wanted to hide the rune, but the rune did not react, and in desperation, Lin Chen hurriedly put down his sleeves, covered the rune and got up to open the door.

"Whispering, what's the matter, what are you doing with this?" Lin Chen saw that he was holding a stringed piano in his dream, which was very similar to the zither on the earth, so he asked.

"Yesterday, I heard my brother-in-law say that there is such a guqin in your hometown, so I thought I would show my brother-in-law the same as what you said. ”

Lin Chen took the qin, looked at it carefully, and replied: "Well, it's very similar, people in our hometown call this kind of qin a guzheng, and I don't understand the rest, I only know that the number of strings on this kind of qin was different in the past, and now it is basically twenty-one strings." ”

Speaking of this, Lin Chen counted the strings of the piano in his hand, "Well, it's also twenty-one." Hey, how did these three pieces break, and even the Zheng code was completely broken. Lin Chen found that three strings were clearly broken, and they were only on them before.

"Koma?"

"Yes, we call the front and back beams of this fixed string the front and back mountains, and the middle ones are called the zither yards. There seem to be many other names, but I only remember the best one. ”

"It's also an interesting name, and I decided to call it that way in the future. But this code was broken by my sister, she came over yesterday and left in a hurry, there was something I wanted to ask you, and I was embarrassed to come back to you, so I went to my place. I was about to practice the piano, so I stopped and told her what you told me, and when I heard the excitement, my sister smashed my piano with a punch. ”

"What's so exciting?" Lin Chen couldn't understand, he didn't seem to whisper anything exciting to Meng last night.

"Brother-in-law, you're really boring. Even if you don't ask me what kind of music I'm going to practice, I'll ask my sister how my hands are. ”

"Well, well, how's your sister's hand?"

"Why do I feel more boring, forget it, my sister's hand is fine, it's my piano that has something to do. My sister broke my piano because of your overexcitement, and besides, you have to be responsible, you are responsible!"

Lin Chen's mind was full of black lines again, especially the surprised eyes when he caught a glimpse of Da Lu and Xiao Lu passing by in front of his room, and he wanted to die, and said, "Talk to you, I'll seriously count me as losing." ”

"Are you trying to deny it? I'm calling someone, brother-in-law bullying people......

Okay, I lost, Lin Chen sighed in his heart, "What do you say, I'm good at singing, I can fix the piano or something, you won't kill me." ”

"Of course I know you won't, this piano was left by our dreamer ancestors, I heard that this piano still has a production drawing, and it is hidden in our dreamer's workshop. ”

"Meng Siqing?" Lin Chen immediately looked at the qin carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was similar to the guzheng he had seen before, "Hey, there is a secret grid under the piano board." ”

"How do you know the name of my ancestor?" But before he finished asking, he saw Lin Chen flip the piano over and push a square block at the bottom of the piano flat.

"Smack!" the bottom of the piano flicked open, and an umbrella appeared in front of Lin Chen and Dream Whispering.

"What is this...... Wow, that's beautiful. Dream whispered and wanted to take the umbrella out of it, but Lin Chen stopped her.

"It's an oil-paper umbrella. Lin Chen carefully took out the umbrella, the umbrella may have been in the piano for too long, the umbrella surface has faded, and some damage, fortunately, this dark grid is extremely cleverly made, it can put down this umbrella, there is no extra space, so the umbrella is also like being placed in the time slowdown, the damage is not serious.

"Is this an umbrella, that's what my brother-in-law said yesterday, ...... What is it used to block the rain when it rains?" At this moment, Dream Whisper's eyes were already full of little stars, and he wanted to take the paper umbrella from Lin Chen's hand, and Lin Chen was holding a push hand in his hand to think about whether this umbrella could be opened after so many years, but Dream Whispering held the umbrella handle with one hand and pulled it, and with a snort, the umbrella surface was opened.

"Ah......h

Lin Chen, who was on the side, was surprised by the quality of the paper umbrella, "Guzheng, oil paper umbrella, three views, psychic machinery, if one or two are still coincidences, then so many coincidences are gathered in one person, it is no longer a coincidence, if this Meng Siqing is not an earthling, it will blow my head." ”

Just when Lin Chen's heart was agitated and he was reasoning about the little blind man in his heart, a figure suddenly rushed into the door and punched Lin Chen's head, Lin Chen only felt that his eyes were dark, and he hit his head on the table.
