Chapter 18: The Gramophone

A rainstorm, it rained all night, early in the morning, the sky was bright, the sky, the rain has become smaller, a rainstorm washed, so that the whole world seems to be a lot brighter, the green of the trees is attractive, the summer flowers are also under the baptism of the storm, everything that survives is more bright and beautiful.

The sky was still a little overcast, and the rain was dripping down from the eaves, playing a song of nature.

Wang Yi returned to the room early last night and escaped the rainstorm. As soon as the morning dawned, he woke up early, first crossed his legs on the bed, five hearts to the sky, his mind was pure and ethereal, running the unique breathing method of "Washing the Marrow Sutra", with his breath and breathing, gradually, a milky white aura of heaven and earth was breathed into his body from his mouth and nose along his breath.

First, he was led by the innate origin true qi in his body to run along the meridians for several days, and after completely absorbing and domesticating this aura, he calmed down in his body.

And the excess heaven and earth aura is integrated into the limbs and hundreds of remains, constantly tempering and strengthening Wang Yi's body, and the hundreds of millions of cells in the body are like travelers who have been hungry and thirsty for a long time, greedily absorbing this essence of heaven and earth.

After a long time, Wang Yi slowly exhaled a breath of arrow, and Ning Er did not disperse, shooting three feet away before gradually disappearing without a trace.

Standing up, stretching his body, and suddenly there was a crunch of bones like fried beans.

Feeling another point of strength in his body, Wang Yi couldn't help but smile.

Subsequently, under Qiuyue's service, he washed and dressed, had breakfast, put on a black coat, and carried an oil-paper umbrella out of his small courtyard, and the beautiful little maid Qiuyue was asked to stay at home.

Autumn, bored, had no choice but to continue her unfinished weaving business in her hut, as if she thought of something, and couldn't help but blush and snicker.

Wang Yi came all the way to his father's courtyard, and before he walked in, he heard a cold snort from the house: "Hmph, that mountain bandit is so vicious, do you think my Wang family is easy to bully, second brother, you take care of your injuries, and when you are healed, the eldest brother will go with you to level his broken cottage!"

"Uncle is right, deceiving my Wang family like this is not taking our Longteng Mansion Wang family in his eyes, he should teach them a lesson!"

Wang Yi walked in the door, first glancing at an inconspicuous corner of the door, and then looking inside.

At this time, there were a lot of people gathered in the house, basically middle-aged and elderly people, and it was Wang Yi's uncle Wang Bowei and a senior steward of the family who spoke before.

Some of these people were Wang Yi's uncles and uncles, some were high-level stewards close to their lineage, and several family elders.

They all came to visit Wang Xiao when they heard that he was injured and came back. Wang Xiao also told everyone what he said to Wang Yi last night, and Wang Bowei was so angry!

I have to say that Wang Yi and his father's three brothers still have a good relationship, and the uncle Wang Bowei is short-tempered and very protective. The third uncle is full of poetry and books, has an elegant atmosphere, is a wise man who can strategize, and Wang Yi's father Wang Xiao is the most talented of the three brothers, originally Wang Yuanlong wanted to establish Wang Xiao as the next generation of family heads, but after seeing Wang Yi's talent, the ghost made Wang Yi the young master, that is, the heir of the next generation of family heads.

Seeing Wang Yi come in, someone in the room happened to look at him, and hurriedly said respectfully: "I've seen the young master!"

"Ah, it's Yi'er here. Hearing the voice of the steward who spoke first, Wang Bowei and the others also smiled and said to Wang Yi.

When the rest of the stewards saw it, they were also busy saluting Wang Yi.

"I've seen all your uncles and uncles, I've seen two elders!" Wang Yi also immediately saluted respectfully to a few people.

Wang Bowei nodded, with a gentle look on his face.

came to the bed, at this time Wang Xiao was still lying on the bed, and next to the bed was his mother, who was slightly more energetic.

Although Wang Xiao was still relatively weak at this time, he was much better than last night. His face was no longer so pale, but a little bloody.

"Yi'er, you're here. Wang Xiao smiled at Wang Yi.

"Did Yi'er eat breakfast?" Liu Hanyan also asked with a smile.

"Well, mother, I've already eaten, have you eaten? By the way, Dad, how do you feel, is it better?"

"I ate it, your father can't eat it, he has no appetite. ”

"Okay, Yi'er, don't worry about me, I'm much better. ”

"That's good, Dad. Wang Yi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Second brother, we won't disturb you to rest and recuperate, let's go first!" Wang Bowei said to Wang Xiao with a smile at this time.

"Second brother, you take care of your injuries, let's leave first. The third uncle, Wang Jiannan, also smiled elegantly.

"Yi'er, you can accompany your father. ”

"Okay, third uncle, uncle go slowly!"

"Big brother, third brother walk slowly, elders walk slowly. On the bed, Wang Xiao also said politely.

"Second master, young master, I'll retire. And the stewards took their leave.

The two elders also nodded and left the house.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Yi's family of three and a few maids were left in the house.

"Mother, has Li Lao's medicine been fried for my father?" asked Wang Yi to Liu Hanyan.

nodded, "I gave your dad a dose of medicine this morning, and your dad is much better after taking the medicine!"

"That's good, Dad, Mother, I'll go to Grandpa's place first, show Grandpa the exercises, and come back later." Hearing this, Wang Yi's slightly frowning brows loosened a lot, and he said to Liu Hanyan with a smile.

"Well, go ahead, Yi'er. Liu Hanyan nodded.

Wang Yi turned around and walked out of the door, and when he went out, he glanced sideways at his father and mother, and seeing that they didn't pay attention to him, he quickly made a move, picked up a black stone from the corner of the door, put it in his arms, and then walked out of the door.

Holding an umbrella and walking out of his parents' courtyard, Wang Yi took out the black stone the size of a baby's fist and held it up in front of his eyes, only to see that the stone was full of fine holes.

"Gramophone, the real reason for Dad's injury is here. Looking at this stone, Wang Yi muttered to himself.

Gramophone, a magical stone that can retain sound in just twelve hours, was not known at first, but after it was discovered that the thunder and the neighing of animals could be heard from it, people began to use this stone to retain sound, but after finding that it could only retain the sound for twelve hours, the sound in it would disappear, and there was no chance to be popularized.

Instead, it is used as a tool to eavesdrop on secrets or deliver messages in a short period of time.

Wang Yi still saw this thing from a book on strange things, and when he saw this account, he couldn't help but think that this was not a modern tape recorder?

Unexpectedly, this time it helped a lot, and was used by Wang Yi as a bugging device to eavesdrop on the truth hidden by his father.

"Don't be in a hurry to listen to the content of the Gramophone Stone, go to the old man first. Wang Yi put away the phonograph stone, held an umbrella, walked in the rain, and walked towards the main hall of the head of the family.
