After listening to the interpreter's explanation, Chiho Kirino's heart shook violently, and her face began to burn.

"Good girl, do you have someone you like?" He Yunqing seemed to see something, held her hand, and asked with a smile.

Chiho Kirino nodded slightly, and her face was flushed for a while.

"Let me guess who you like." He Yunqing looked at Chiho Kirino, and a hint of narrowness suddenly flashed in her eyes.

"The person you like is Lin Yiqing, right?" He Yunqing asked with a smile.

"What my sister said is that the person my sister likes in her heart is indeed Lin Jun." Chiho Kirino was taken aback, she looked at He Yunqing blankly, a trace of confusion and panic flashed in her eyes, "How did my sister guess?" ”

"I'm my sister, I'm two years older than you, not for nothing." He Yunqing smiled happily.

"Good girl, my sister has another gift for you." He Yunqing said, nodded to a maid standing not far away, the maid understood, turned around and entered the room, and after a while, she brought out a small brocade box.

The maid sent the brocade box to He Yunqing's hands, gave a salute and withdrew. He Yunqing took the brocade box to Chiho Kirino and shook it, "Good girl, guess what?" What's in it? ”

Chiho Kirino shook her head.

"Hehe, so I can guess what is on my sister's mind, but my sister can't guess what's in it." He Yunqing smiled and opened the brocade box, revealing the contents inside.

Chiho Kirino looked closely, and what was placed inside the brocade box was a small cylinder with a lid.

Chiho Kirino gently took the cylinder out of the brocade box and looked at it carefully.

It is a small cylinder made of bamboo, the body of the cylinder is made of bamboo, the bottom and lid of the cylinder are made of ebony, and the lid is also embedded with a button made of ivory. The whole utensils do not have any carvings, which looks delicate and elegant.

Chiho Kirino looked at the series of naturally formed markings that looked like teardrops on the bamboo surface of the barrel, and couldn't help but be surprised that such a beautiful and wonderful pattern could be born on the bamboo.

"This is a powder tube for incense powder." He Yunqing said with a smile, "Good girl, do you know what this incense powder tube is made of?" ”

Chiho Kirino shook her head.

"It's Xiangfeizhu." He Yunqing stared at Chiho Kirino's eyes and said word by word.

"Xiangfei Bamboo ......" Chiho Kirino seemed to understand something, "Could it be ......?"

"Has my sister heard the story of Xiangfeizhu?" He Yunqing asked.

"Tell me, sister." Chiho Kirino looked at her and said softly.

According to legend, it was still the time when Yao and Shun ruled the world, there were nine evil dragons on Jiuzhi Mountain in Hunan, living in nine caves, and often came to the Xiangjiang River to play in the water, so that the flood surged, the crops were washed away, the houses were washed away, and the common people complained bitterly and complained. Emperor Shun was concerned about the suffering of the people, he learned the news that the evil dragon was harming the people, he did not eat well, he slept restlessly, and he wanted to go to the south to help the people eliminate the harm and solve the problem, and punish the evil dragon. ”

"Emperor Shun had two concubines, Empress E and Nuying, who were the two daughters of Emperor Yao. Although they were born in the royal family and were imperial concubines, they were deeply influenced and taught by Emperor Yao and Emperor Shun, and were not greedy for pleasure, but always cared about the suffering of the people. They are also reluctant to let Emperor Shun stay away from home this time. However, thinking that in order to relieve the disaster and suffering of the people of Xiangjiang, they still endured the sorrow in their hearts and happily sent Emperor Shun on the road. ”

"Emperor Shun is gone, and Empress E and Nuying are waiting at home for the good news of his victory over the evil dragon, praying for him day and night to return victoriously as soon as possible. However, year after year passed, the swallows came and went a few times, the flowers bloomed and fell a few degrees, and Emperor Shun still had no news, and they were worried. Emperor E said, 'Could it be that he was wounded by an evil dragon, or did he fall ill in a foreign land?' Nuying said, "Could it be that he was in distress on the way, or was he lost because of the distance of the mountain road?" After thinking about it, the two of them should go and look for it, rather than stay at home for a long time and wait for no news and no return. So, Empress E and Nuying braved the wind and frost, trekked through mountains and rivers, and went to the Xiangjiang River in the south to find their beloved husband. ”

"After climbing mountain after mountain, crossing river after river, they finally came to Jiuzhi Mountain. They followed the Big Bauhinia River to the top of the mountain, and then came down along the Little Bauhinia River, and searched every mountain village in Jiuzhi Mountain, and walked on every trail in Jiuzhi Mountain. On this day, they came to a place called Sanfeng Rock, where there were three large stones, surrounded by green bamboo, and there was a tall tomb made of pearl oysters. They were amazed and asked the villagers, 'Whose grave is so magnificent?' Why do the three boulders stand precipitously? With tears in their eyes, the villagers told them, 'This is the tomb of Emperor Shun, who came here from the far north to help us kill the nine evil dragons and live a happy life, but he did his best, sweated, and died here. ’”

It turned out that after Emperor Shun died of illness, the fathers and villagers of Xiangjiang specially built this tomb for him in order to thank Emperor Shun for his kindness. A group of cranes on Jiuzhi Mountain were also moved, and they kept going to the South China Sea day and night to bring brilliant and dazzling pearls, and sprinkled them on the tomb of Emperor Shun, which became this pearl tomb. The three boulders were made by the three-toothed rake used by Emperor Shun to kill the evil dragon and insert it into the ground. When Empress E and Nuying learned the truth, they were very sad, and they hugged their heads and cried. They were so grieved that they wept for nine days and nine nights, and their eyes were swollen from crying, and their throats were hoarse from crying, and their tears were dry. In the end, he cried blood and tears, and died by Emperor Shun's side. ”

"The tears of Empress E and Nuying were sprinkled on the bamboo mountain of Jiuzhi Mountain, and there were little tear spots on the bamboo poles, some were purple, some were snow-white, and there were blood red and blood red, this is the 'Xiangfei Bamboo', and some of the bamboo were like fingerprints, and the legend was that Empress E and Nuying wiped their tears on the bamboo;

"So that's ......" Chiho Kirino listened to He Yunqing's narration and the translator's explanation, and somehow, suddenly remembered Lin Yiqing, who was about to travel away.

"It's one of my favorite stories." He Yunqing's eyes flashed with a look of leisurely fascination, "I sometimes wonder how nice it would be if I also had a dear sister, like me, married to the same beloved......"

Hearing the last sentence He Yunqing said, Chiho Kirino's heart jumped violently.
