Chapter 111: The Origin of the Remnant Picture
The auction ended smoothly, although there were crazy Baixiong on the way to make things difficult, but in terms of the ending, it was considered to be a thrill, and the spirit crystals that were pitted by Mad Baixiong were also doubled back from him.
After Ye Lingyu took over the goods and spirit crystals from Qian Shan and the others, he returned to the box and called Shidie and the others, and everyone went home together.
The poetry butterfly who received the frost grass was naturally very excited, she had a soft spot for alchemy, a precious medicinal herb, worth millions of spirit crystals, and she never let go of the jade box along the way.
My sister's mood is better, and Shiyan's mood is naturally better, at least when she looks at Ye Lingyu, she is not as annoying as before. used to look at Ye Lingyu, in her opinion, she was a womanizer, not as good as a beast, but now it looks like ...... Barely looks like a person.
Everyone parted in Situ's mansion, the two sisters Shiyan and Shidie went back to their residences, while Ye Lingyu and Mo Fei went back to their own courtyards.
Mo Fei rarely went back to his room to cultivate, before Ye Lingyu gave him three Guyuan Pills, that guy inadvertently found such a time-consuming and effortless cultivation method in his leisure life, of course he was happy to do it.
He had to rely on taking pills to cultivate, and Ye Lingyu didn't bother to care about him. He went back to his room and took out the remnant of the picture he had auctioned off.
Just as Ye Lingyu saw when he was in the auction house, in the corner of the ancient map, there were indeed two fruits, one black and one white, and below that, the words yin and yang were written.
Ye Lingyu opened the ancient map, which was about a zhang wide and looked boxy. On one of the edges, there are obvious traces of clipping. Judging from the traces and patterns, this ancient picture should be half a picture, in other words, there should be another remnant.
The black and white double fruit pattern is marked in one corner, and beyond that, there is a dense route.
However, what made Ye Lingyu feel a little strange was that on this map, except for the road, the other markings were all guns, knives, swords, and even flames, smoke, etc., and there was not even a single building.
After carefully searching the map for a long time, only at the beginning of the route, I found a sign of six mountains, which is the only one that can indicate the location.
Six mountains? Ye Lingyu stared at Gu Tu and pondered for a long time, unable to find a clue at all.
Mountains and forests can be found everywhere, and there are countless six mountains in a row. To find a specific location, you have to have other clues.
After thinking for a while to no avail, he decisively put away the remnants and pushed the door out. After finding people in the courtyard and asking for directions, he headed towards the courtyard where Ruoning lived.
In terms of knowledge, Ruo Ning far surpasses him, and he may be able to get an answer from her than to think about it alone.
After coming to a courtyard, he found a room, and wanted to push the door in, but after thinking about it, he knocked on the door first.
"Come in. A lazy voice came from inside the door.
Ye Lingyu hesitated for a moment and gently pushed the door open.
The light shone in from the outside in, illuminating the flaming red dress inside. Although the long skirt is still bright and shiny, the familiar person looks a little haggard.
After a few days, she was no longer as energetic as before, but always had a feeling of sleepiness and tiredness.
She sat at the table, one hand propped up her head, her eyes closed, as if she were taking a nap.
"What's the matter?" Ruo Ning asked slowly.
She asked casually, not even trying to open her eyelids.
Usually people who come to her are subordinates, but she didn't expect Ye Lingyu to come, so she took it for granted that the person at the door was someone else.
Seeing her like this, Ye Lingyu chuckled unconsciously. I don't know which nerve is wrong, and suddenly I have the idea of teasing her.
He cleared his throat and deliberately learned the tone of those subordinates: "Miss Yu, a few pregnant golden-veined pigs in the backyard have dystocia. ”
"The golden-veined pig has a difficult birth, so you can go to the spirit beast shop and ask a veterinarian to come back and tell me what to do?" Ruo Ning didn't raise his head, still with his eyes closed.
"The veterinarian brought in, and he said that the young lady was the best at this kind of thing. ”
"I'm the best at ......" Ruo Ning muttered to herself, the sleepiness in her mind was quickly dissipating, and after a few breaths, her eyes suddenly opened and she snapped up, "He has pig brains, right?" ”
It's just too unusual, which veterinarian dares to talk such nonsense. Her dignified eldest lady of the Situ family, how could she be good at having a difficult birth for spirit beasts.
I was still angry, but when I looked around, I saw a person standing by the door, leaning against the door frame with his hands in his arms, with a joke on his face.
Seeing that underbeaten face, what was going on with the conversation just now, how could Ruo Ning not know.
Her eyes burned with rage, as if she was going to eat the man in front of her.
Ye Lingyu didn't care, shrugged his shoulders, and walked into the room.
"Who else should I be, it turns out that Veterinarian Ye is here. The golden-veined pig in the backyard is difficult to give birth, it shouldn't be something good that you did. ”
"Ahem, Hugh is talking nonsense. Ye Lingyu was choked, stumbled under his feet, and didn't know how to continue the words for a while, so he quickly changed the topic, "I came to look for you because I wanted to ask you something." ”
"Oh, that's it. If you want to ask what to do if the golden-veined pig has a difficult birth, you can push its belly, and if it is smooth, it will naturally give birth. Don't worry, this kind of thing is the best at this kind of thing, it must be right to do what I say, don't delay, go ahead. Ruo Ning waved his little hand, with an expression of "everything has me, please rest assured".
"No, I'm here ......"
"Hmm? It's not a golden-veined pig that has a difficult birth. Could it be that Veterinarian Ye has a difficult birth, and he urgently needs someone to enlighten and enlighten him? That's right, the little woman's hands just happen to be empty, and she will also help you push it?"
Ye Lingyu said in his heart, "Uncle you." Why did he want to tease this woman, when it comes to teasing people, the other party is obviously skilled, and he can choke him to death in three or two sentences, and he wants to provoke this woman when he is full.
"Alright, I'm here to get down to business. Ye Lingyu straightened his face and found a chair to sit down.
"In someone's boudoir, you're really not polite at all. Ruo Ning glanced at him, took out the cup and poured tea for him.
"I don't need tea, I want you to help me look at something. Ye Lingyu cleared the things on the table, and then took out the ancient map and opened it on the table.
The ancient map is densely packed with roads.
Ruo Ning put down the teacup in his hand and roughly scanned it on the map, showing surprise: "This is the remnant picture you took in the Jade Pavilion?"
"You didn't go to the auction, how do you know that I took this remnant?"
If Ning didn't answer, he still stared at the remnant picture.
Of course, her subordinates told her about the auction of the remnants, and she knew exactly what Ye Lingyu did in the auction hall, including the fact that Ye Lingyu and Sister Shidie were very close.
"So, what do you want me to show you?" Ruo Ning asked.
She couldn't see anything important in this residual picture, or there was nothing important marked on the picture at all.
Ye Lingyu pointed to the pattern of the six mountains: "This, what can you see?"
Ruo Ning stared at the pattern for a while, and said thoughtfully: "This is the starting point of all routes, and it should be a landmark." ”
"Do you have an impression?"
Ruo Ning's eyebrows tightened, and he stared at the picture for a while, but to no avail, he shook his head and said to Ye Lingyu: "I can't think of it either, just looking at this picture has no results, it is better to ask Elder Qianshan, see where this picture came from, maybe there will be some discoveries." ”
The treasures of the Jade Pavilion are generally auctioned by others, and if you can find the owner of this remnant, you may be able to get some useful information.
In this regard, Ye Lingyu also agreed, so Ruo Ning arranged a guard and went to the Feiyu Pavilion again.
Half an hour later, the guard returned, said a few words to Ruo Ning, and then retreated consciously.
"Have you got a result?" Ye Lingyu asked.
Ruo Ning turned around and closed the door and returned to the chair: "I have already asked Qian Shan, and it is said that this picture was sent to Feiyu Pavilion by an old man." ”
"Old man?" Ye Lingyu's eyes narrowed slightly, "What kind of old man?"
"I don't know the identity, but I heard that the old man called himself Tianji. ”
The word "Tianji" exploded in Ye Lingyu's mind like a thunderbolt, his pupils shrank suddenly, and a name immediately appeared in his heart - Old Man Tianji.
The Tianji Stone that helped him escape the punishment of heaven was given by the old man of Tianji, and he had also heard the name of the old man of Tianji from the mouth of the Hongchen knife. But Ye Lingyu didn't know anything about what kind of person the old man Tianji was, and even the red dust knife was vague when he told the old man of Tianji.
The change in Ye Lingyu's expression was only fleeting, and Ruo Ning didn't notice it. She continued to say to Ye Lingyu: "But there is one thing that is very strange, the news from Qianshan is that this old man deposited the remnants in the Feiyu Pavilion a few years ago, and the date he asked for the auction was today. ”
"What do you mean by this?" Ye Lingyu was a little puzzled, but while he was puzzled, a sense of vigilance also secretly rose in his heart.
"You also know that the auction of the Jade Pavilion is usually once every six months. To be able to hold an auction today would have been an exception. But the old man had set the auction time for the auction today a few years ago, as if he had expected an auction to be held today. And listening to the guard, when Qian Shan said this, his expression was also shocked and frightened. ”
Of course he will be frightened, let alone Qian Shan, even if it is Ye Lingyu, he can't feel a chill behind him at this moment.
It is conceivable that when the old man came to store the lots, Qian Shan probably didn't care, until a few years later, when an auction was really held at the appointed time.
In fact, not only Ye Lingyu felt a chill in his heart, but even Ruo Ning's delicate body trembled a little. There were some things that they all thought of in their hearts, but none of them said them.
The auction time was specified a few years ago, and then today, a few years later, by mistake, this remnant picture fell into the hands of Ye Lingyu.
In a sense, it looks like a premeditated operation. It's like someone who specially wants to hand over this residual picture to Ye Lingyu.
And the most terrifying thing for them is that this premeditation was actually arranged a few years ago.
This feeling is really chilling, as if the path you have taken and the things you have done are all expected by others.
Who in the world can do such a thing? Even some powerful people, even if they are Heavenly Rank masters, may not be able to do it. This kind of thing can be done unless that person can tell the heavens and know the future.
Know the future? Ye Lingyu was stunned for a moment, speaking of which, the Tianji Stone was also given to Ye Lingyu's mother by the old man of Tianji. Could it be that this old man of Tianji calculated that more than ten years later, the Heavenly Punishment would happen in Fengcheng, and only then did he give the Tianji Stone when Ye Lingyu was born?
As soon as he thought of this, Ye Lingyu couldn't help but shudder.
