Chapter 71: Longevity Tribulation [7]

The more I thought about it, the more vague the memory became.

Wang Shouye was unwilling, and subconsciously looked back at the Arhat tree, and saw that the two sentinels were also looking over here with their faces full of inquiry, obviously very curious about his strange reflection.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Shouye still didn't explain anything to them.

Seeing that he was also a middle-level official of the fifth grade, he explained a lot to these unpopular sentinels, but it seemed that there were no three hundred taels of silver here.

Anyway, without the blessing of the 'Clear Spiritual Eye', even if they were dazzled, they could only roughly see the outline, and they couldn't determine the existence of those four runes.

But......

It also seems a bit deliberate to withdraw from it.

So Wang Shouye took the red jade with him, and swept around the 'Luohan tree' a few times.

Of course, the wood grain on the face is not daring to look at it anymore for the time being, at least wait for the eyes to ease, and then try to see if you can draw the talisman seal while looking.

This 'Luohan tree' is about eight feet tall [two meters five], with the monk's wooden-transformed body as the main trunk, and three branches extending from the shoulders and the top of the head, covering a half-zhang square circle like a fan.

The leaves on the stem are a bit like creepers, and the flowers are similar to morning glories, but the aroma is much stronger, and it is not an ordinary floral fragrance, but a melon and fruit fragrance.

But there was no fruit on it.

Look carefully, the monk still has a cloth bag on his left shoulder, and I don't know what is stuffed inside, and most of the Du Mu who can prove his identity is also in it.

It's a pity that it's all wood and part of the tree, and it's impossible to look through it again.

As for the rhizomes, they mainly extend from the buttocks and the legs that sit cross-legged, and the intertwined roots spread far and wide.

Fortunately, the roots are not too deep, otherwise they may not be able to dig it out in the morning.

"Sir."

was sweeping and measuring, and heard Hongyu suppress his voice and say: "Since this is the remains of a high monk, if it is planted near the Buddha's light relic, will it echo each other and even bear fruit?" ”

Wang Shouye also thought so before, after all, there are two Arhat trees, even if the failure of the experiment causes the opposite effect, or even directly causes the Arhat tree to wither, there is still a spare tire available.

But after discovering the four sigils, Wang Shouye changed his mind - at least until he researched the results, he was reluctant to use them to produce any fruit.

But this matter is not easy to understand, so he pretended to be an old man and said: "Let's wait until we determine the disadvantages of this tree, and then talk about other things." ”

Hongyu only mentioned it in passing, knowing that he always had many wonderful ideas, and they were far more thoughtful than he thought, so he didn't delve into this topic anymore.

After looking up and down the arhat tree a few times, and telling the soldiers not to hurt the rhizomes, Wang Shouye took the red jade and went to the left side of the crystallized cellar.

In terms of the overall amount of work, this three-foot-deep cellar is obviously still on top of the Luohan tree.

But this thing itself is extremely hard, and without the consideration of bump damage, the progress of the project is much faster than that of the monk tree.

When Wang Shouye rushed over, the people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division had already dug more than seven feet deep and roughly sorted out the outline of the fish basket.

Wang Shouye stood on the edge of the construction site, looked at the crystal cellar from a distance, and saw that its whole body was dark red, but there was a faint overflow of streamer when he looked closely.

Because there is so much dirt and sand and gravel, it is not clear for the time being, whether the streamers are all over the cellar body, or if they take on a certain shape - it seems that after getting it back, it will be necessary for people to clean it carefully.

After inspecting the three relics in front of the noon gate, Wang Shouye rode to the left side of the Donghua Gate - three relics were also found nearby, but the ice sculpture Taoist priest had been sent back to Zhao Wenhua's old house.

The rest of the crystal cellar and the Luohan tree are similar to the difference between the left and the left of the noon gate, but after careful observation, Wang Shouye found that the fragrance of the fruit trees of the two Luohan trees is still slightly different.

The one outside the noon gate is faintly sweet, and the one outside the Donghua gate is just fragrant.

I don't know if there is a talisman on the face of this tree, and whether it is the same as the one at the noon gate.

The more Wang Shouye thought about it, the more he scratched his heart, but he didn't dare to trigger the 'Qingming Lingmu' again, so he simply went back to the noon gate outpost, asked for some wine and food from Yulin Wei Qianhu on duty, and had a simple supper with Hongyu.

…………

It was almost 5:00 a.m., and the last piece of relics was finally loaded into the car, and after Wang Shouye asked Li Fang for instructions, he personally escorted him back to Zhao Wenhua's mansion.

For fear of being affected by the Buddha's light relics, the six relics were temporarily stored in the West Cross Courtyard.

Two arhat trees are planted at the east and west ends, about four zhang apart; The two super-giant crystal fish baskets were put down and rested in the southeast and southwest corners.

And the thunder robbery blue bricks and ice carving Dao people were put into the wings on the east and west sides respectively.

When I got here, it was all Jinyiwei who took care of it.

Wang Shouye was also familiar with them for a long time, so he handed over the four pieces in the courtyard to Shen Changfu to take care ofβ€”in fact, there was nothing else, just planting trees and cleaning up the sand, gravel and soil on the crystals.

As for himself, he took the red jade to the west wing to check the ice carving Taoist who he had not seen so far.

As soon as he pushed open the door, he felt a bone-chilling cold gushing out, Wang Shouye was wearing two clothes, and he couldn't help but shiver, let alone Zhao Hongyu.

So Wang Shouye turned his head and explained: "I'll go in and take a look myself, you are waiting outside." ”

Speaking of this ceremony, seeing that Hongyu Cherry's mouth moved, she seemed to have a different opinion, and hurriedly added: "In case of any accident, you can call someone to rescue me." ”

Hongyu still refused to let Wang Shouye in, but went straight to Shen Changfu and asked him for a safety rope - this thing is now the standard equipment of the brocade guards.

Wrapping one head tightly around Wang Shouye's waist, Hongyu let him carry the lantern and walked into the west wing alone.

After entering the door, it can really be said that it is as cold as a step, and it is still more than five feet away from the ice sculpture, and the skin on Wang Shouye's face and hands is faintly painful, giving birth to signs of frostbite.

He hurriedly stopped, picked up the lantern and wanted to look at the Taoist who looked like an ice sculpture, but as soon as he brought the lantern closer, the candle flame in the lantern faltered, and if he handed it forward, it was simply extinguished.

Tut~

No wonder I heard those Jinyi guards say that after sending this ice road man, the horse pulling the cart fell ill directly.

"Master, master? Brother Wang?! ”

Seeing that the light was suddenly dimmed, Hongyu outside immediately shouted and tightened the safety rope.

"It's okay, it's the candle that froze out."

Wang Shouye hurriedly responded, and the safety rope was slightly relaxed.

But I can't see it clearly.

Wang Shouye hesitated for a moment, took off the sharpened embroidered spring knife from his waist, and carefully carried it to the ice sculpture.

Waiting for the handle to touch the shoulder of the ice sculpture, he stayed for a moment before retracting it, and then walked quickly out of the west wing.

Met Ruby's concerned gaze, he slammed the hilt of his knife against the steps and pressed it a little harder.

Syllable~

Just heard a crisp sound, and the handle of the knife was directly torn apart!

This......

I'm afraid it's at least more than 100 degrees below zero, right?

It seems that this kind of low temperature can also be used in meritorious work.

But I learned text editing and game planning, which is really tight for this science and engineering thing.

Perhaps, we should apply for the transfer of some skilled craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry?

Death row inmates who have committed the most heinous crimes also have to apply for a few, otherwise there are too many experiments to start with.

"Master, are you alright?"

Seeing that Wang Shouye was stunned for a long time, Hongyu came up, first tentatively touched Wang Shouye's hand, and saw that it was a cold mess, and hurriedly held it tightly with a soft wattle.

"I'm fine, just warm up with a cup of hot tea."

Wang Shouye said, glanced back at the steaming west wing, and said in his heart that this thing has other uses, and it can't be developed for a while, but it is excellent for refrigeration and ice making.

It's a pity that it's already mid-September, and if it's three or four months in the morning, it's still a way to make money.

"Someone, get two buckets of well water in it - by the way, let the kitchen cook some rock sugar pear water, and put it in too."
