This time, Kong Lianyi seemed to have realized something, his eyes widened, and he clapped his palms and said happily: "Big brother, I understand, you are using fire to directly ignite what you just said...... Wax gas, yes, is wax gas, although this wax gas is like smoke, but it is actually the same thing as the candle, igniting this wax gas, it is like lighting a candle, so the candle flame can be rekindled, not what is the sky flying fire, the fire dragon in the sky? ”

Under the excitement, the white little face was flushed.

Because of her smart temperament, coupled with her long-term love to mix with Confucius, under the teaching of words and deeds, she understands and accepts this kind of physical things faster.

Kong Lianshun is no less intelligent than her, but it is a semi-finished product of the traditional education of the subset of scripture and history, and he is more orthodox and roundabout in his bones, but he didn't have an epiphany so quickly, and only faintly caught something, and now he listened to the little sister Kong Lianyi's shouting, which was a little sudden, scratched his head, and sighed lightly: "After Brother Ning's explanation, I realized that the previous 'Double Dragons to the Sky, Flying Fire in the Air' turned out to be not the power of psychic gods and ghosts, but also like this fire burning wax gas!" Wow, Confucius once said, the son is silent, the strange power is confused, and I am not deceiving! ”

Kong Lianyi rarely didn't refute his brother, nodded secretly, suddenly woke up, frowned, tilted his little head, and said hesitantly: "Big brother, so to speak, the little sister's previous action of attracting the fire dragon, as well as the fire spell, actually has no effect?" ”

Ding Bao was a little surprised by the little girl's agility and intelligence, and he didn't answer directly, he smiled: "Whether it's useful or not, you can see for yourself." ”

With that, she took the two candlesticks in her hands, and as she had done in her previous demonstration, she first trimmed the two candles' burned cotton cores with gilded scissors, and then lit them together with a firelighter.

When the candle is burning, place one of the candlesticks flat on the table and hold the other candlestick in your hand and hang it above the previous candlestick.

Without warning, he directly blew out the candle below, and then simply held the candlestick above, neither measuring the distance with his forearm like Kong Lianyi before, nor performing any strange specific actions to attract the fire dragon, and his mouth did not have any words, just quietly watched the smoke of the lower candle rise and rise.

When the smoke rises to a certain height, the flame of the candlestick in his hand is used to gather on the smoke at the highest point, simple and casual, "poof", the brilliant fire dragon appears again, winds down, and instantly submerges into the wick, and the candle that has just been blown out below is "swished" and burned again.

After this direct comparison of the three realities, combined with Ding Bao's reasoning, the facts are all there, and the truth is thorough, so far, the two are no longer meaningful.

Seeing that Kong Lianyi's eyes were shining, and he was eager to try, Ding Bao smiled and handed her the candlestick, "Come, try it yourself." ”

Kong Lianyi quickly took the candlestick, first took a deep breath, and then, picking up the scissors, went to trim the wick first.

Ding Bao was only worried about how to explain in an easy-to-understand manner, but at this time, he was idle and immediately noticed Kong Lianyi's skillful and almost subconscious action. In addition to causing trouble, the candle at this time is also very inconvenient to use, because the wick is made of cotton thread, standing upright in the center of the flame, and cannot be burned out of charring, so it is necessary to cut the end of the residual candle core with scissors from time to time, which is very troublesome.

Unconsciously, I suddenly remembered the popular "Candle Cutting" poem of a very favorite poet in my previous life, and secretly thought that that kind of scene should also be very beautiful, so I took a sip of tea and couldn't help but whisper: "Why should I cut the candles in the west window together, but the words ...... When it rains at night. ”

The act of chanting poetry is emotional, but after chanting the first sentence, I feel bad, and there are at least two pairs of ears next to it. So at the last moment, he had an idea and changed the Bashan of the original poem to Zhongnan.

Kong Lianyi was the closest and was the first to hear it, but she didn't like poetry since she was a child, she just felt that this poem felt very good, her eyes lit up, she wrote it down silently, and then her mind was all devoted to the latest improved version of "Burning Candles with Smoke".

Kong Lianshun, as a person who understands poetry, was shocked when he heard this, raised his head suddenly, glanced at Ding Bao with a complicated expression, and pursed his lips a few times, but he didn't say anything.

In fact, Ding Bao brought him too many shocks and surprises, so much that he was already a little numb now.

Kong Lianyi played several times in a row, until he was completely acquainted, and then he happily thanked and left, I don't know if he forgot or intentionally, and he didn't mention the gambling contract.

When there were only Ding Bao and Kong Lianshun left in the guest room, Ding Bao looked at Kong Lianshun and frowned: "Your eccentric sister, you can't deliberately not mention it and want to play tricks, right?" ”

"That won't be. The Kong family doesn't have this rule. Kong Lianshun was categorical.

"Really?"

"It should ...... No. Right? ”

“……”

Xiyan Confucius Mansion is located in the deep and quiet Sanshui Street. Those who live here, many literati and elegant people, and are far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, can be regarded as one of the few clean places in the bustling Xiyan City all day long.

After the fifth watch, in front of a small two-story building with carved beams and paintings in the back garden of the Confucian Mansion, Kong Lianyi, who was in a goose yellow skirt, tiptoed open the door, his face was slightly tired, but there was no trace of sleepiness at the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, full of excitement, as if he had a big secret and was eager to share it with the owner of the small building, and he didn't want to delay for a moment.

"Ripples?" A delicate and tired voice came from the study upstairs, and no one was seen, but just hearing this voice made people feel a little distressed and pity unconsciously.

"Little cousin, you haven't slept all night!" Kong Lianyi was initially worried about disturbing the rest of the owner in the building, but he carefully pushed the door open, and saw that the candle flame was burning, and there was a fragrance and warmth of candle oil burning for a long time in the building.

"Alright, little butler. I still have a letter halfway through I've written, so it's inconvenient to get up, so come up by yourself. When the woman upstairs spoke, she seemed to be frowning, and there was a hint of helplessness in her delicate and tired voice, if she hadn't heard it with her own ears, it would have been hard to imagine that a person's voice would contain such a complex and clear feeling.

Kong Lianyi wrinkled his nose, and when he went upstairs, he deliberately stomped his feet loudly to express his dissatisfaction and distress, but when he turned the handrail, he saw the mountains of various books in the study, and there was almost no place to stay, especially on the ten-foot-long mahogany desk, all kinds of books, books, and letters were stacked half a person high, completely covering the thin and diligent woman behind, and suddenly he was a little unbearable, and his steps couldn't help but be lighter.

As if sensing the change in her feelings, the woman behind the desk smiled softly, and her tone was also a little bright, "What, who made our family unhappy again, didn't I arrange for them to repair and teach Kong Lianshun a good lesson for you in front of the city gate?" ”
