Chapter 37: The Road in the Mist
It was nearly dusk, the birds were tired of throwing themselves into the forest, and the monsters in the water seemed to have just woken up, and from time to time there were long water marks or high mists on the vast water. I stared at the hill in the distance, recalling the last time I had been, and I didn't expect that the huge bones that were everywhere at our fingertips would become something we had been looking for so hard. Lu Yan said to follow the lotus, and where will this lotus appear? And where will it point?
In the distance, the morning and dusk lines outlined by the mountain peaks slowly moved towards us, and the red light reflected in the water was mixed with the blue and dark shadows. Everyone looked at this moving scenery and was silent, and then Liu Dongxi suddenly stood up and shouted: "Lotus!" ”
How can there be a lotus, why didn't I find it, but Wang Dake cried out in agreement. Under their guidance, I saw clearly that it was the shadow of the mountain in the distance that cut the fiery red water, and a red lotus was appearing. This lotus flower is purely naturally formed, and it can only be said to be similar to the lotus flower of the Liu family, but the demeanor of a red lotus burning vigorously in the dark is no different from the Liu family crest.
The shadow of the mountain pushed forward in a slow and unstoppable momentum, and the red lotus really seemed to be burning, and the lotus petals were like flames, ready to pierce the darkness. The monsters under the water surface also seem to be in line with the situation, paddling across the water from time to time, and it looks like a fire lotus is enchanting and blazing, and the thrilling parts are indescribable, which makes people breathless.
But the momentum of the sunset was naturally unstoppable, the shadow of the mountain ran over the center of the lake, and the red lotus finally did not take shape, and I breathed a sigh of relief, still shocked in my heart.
Liu Shiwu hasn't come back to his senses yet, this kind of coincidence is really incredible, and his reaction is really normal.
"It's amazing, I've been to so many places, this is the first time I've seen this kind of scenery!" Wang Dake also came back to his senses, "This flower seems to be a little similar to the sign in the cave, it's really strange." ”
I glanced at her, and this girl was very keenly aware of this, but she probably didn't know the relationship between this lotus flower and the Liu Dongxi family.
"Do you know who carved that logo?" I asked tentatively.
Wang Dake shook his head, "I don't know, it should be someone who has been here before!" ”
I saw that she really didn't know, so I didn't speak again, it seems that Liu Dongxi said that the secret of this mark is true, and even the Wang family, who is so close to the Liu family, doesn't know. I really don't know what the meaning of this kind of logo that no one knows is.
"Do you have any apprentices with foreign surnames?" I continued to ask if there was a match.
"Yes! Every year, the elders of the family have to accept one or two apprentices, and our friends on the street corner have also joined my family! Wang Dake said with some pride, "Fourth brother, do you also want to learn crafts from my family?" ”
I didn't expect to receive this kind of invitation, so I was stunned for a moment and said, "This is too difficult, I can't learn it!" Anyway, do you know all those apprentices with foreign surnames? ”
Wang Dake didn't hesitate at all, "I definitely can't recognize so many people!" Besides, there are many people who have studied art with the master in various places, and there are many who have never even returned to their own family in their lives, how can they all recognize them? ”
I was a little smacked when I heard it, I thought that this Huizhou royal family was a vassal existence of the Liu family, but I didn't expect it to have such a large scale! "Your business is big enough!"
"It's not because the apprentice collects a lot, it's like his family, the good things are hidden and tucked away for several generations, and now they are almost extinct!" Wang Dake pouted at Liu Dongxi, quite disdainful.
As a friend of Liu Dongxi, I was a little embarrassed to hear this, and I wanted to find some place for Liu Dongxi to come back and I didn't know where to start. But I have already determined that Liu Dongxi's words are not lying to me, maybe Lu Yan is really learning the skills of the Huizhou Wang family.
"Your family and his family are nothing else, who is stronger in terms of craftsmanship?" I started to run out of words.
"No, I don't know how many things he has in his house......" Wang Dake hesitated.
I understood at a glance, Liu Dongxi said that he would also know the things of the Wang family, and it seems that the Wang family is still inferior in terms of skills. At this time, Liu Dongxi turned his head and glanced at me a little gratefully, moved to sit down next to me, surprisingly ignored Wang Dake, and whispered to me: "Brother An, I think this place may have something to do with my family!" ”
My heart says you're not talking nonsense, isn't it? Not to mention Uncle Liu Ranqing, who has three entrances and three exits, just talking about the lotus flowers on the wall and even the miracles in this lake, if your family has nothing to do with here, it will be a ghost.
I didn't say it, I just glanced at him. Liu Dongxi continued: "Back then, the ancestors were down-and-out, and there was really no way to send people under the fence, and even their surnames were changed. But that thaumaturgy does have the power to penetrate the heavens and the earth, and my family must have been an ordinary family before this. ”
I agree with this, if the Liu family's set of things is really ancestral, its family business must be extraordinary. This kind of people, ordinary trivial things can not be touched, once something happens, there must be unimaginable disasters, and even related to the change of the country and the dynasty such as the destiny of the world. As for the disaster that year, there must be a hidden secret.
I suddenly thought of a possibility, thought about it but didn't dare to say it, Liu Shixi stared at my eyes and said: "Family heirloom incision, the Liu family in the Central Plains claims to need the palms and backs of the hands to be stacked in the same direction, and the mouth is called the number of double tens......"
"What does that mean?" Liu Shixi suddenly introduced their incisions, which confused me.
"It's nothing, it's that I'm thinking too much......" Liu Dongxi flashed. I didn't want to talk about it again, knowing that he might have been hit too much and his brain was a little bad, so I realized my absurdity, so I kept my mouth shut.
In this case, I didn't ask any more questions, and pushed him, "How are you two?" ”
Liu didn't seem to understand, "Who?" ”
"Wang Dake! Hook up? "Actually, I just wanted to make everyone more relaxed, but I didn't expect Liu to blush.
"Don't talk nonsense!"
I'll go, and I'm still blushing, why don't you blush when you're a hooligan! I couldn't hold back the laughter, and I wanted to laugh a few more words, but Wang Dake kicked me in the back and fell to the ground.
"Fourth brother, you are not kind, you have entertained me!" Wang Dake is also generous, but it is really a bit heavy.
Liu Dongxi's face was still red, so he came over to play the round, and I thought that if I made any more trouble, I would be kicked into the water, so I didn't squeak anymore and just laughed there. Wang Dake still wanted to say something, but then Lu Yan said: "Don't make trouble, rest quickly, wake up and go!" ”
Wang Dake immediately shut up, I smiled at Liu Shi, and then found a place to put myself, Liu Shiwu seemed to want to say something to me, but he opened his mouth but still didn't say it.
I know he has something on his mind, and this kind of thing is not something that can be accepted in a day or two. I don't know how to convince him, all the past is like a memory, it is a road in the fog, when you walk and then look back, you can only see that small place, and more distant, there is no way to find it.
Lu Yan sat there facing out and started to be on the first shift, I looked at his shadow, guessed his past, and soon fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, I woke up from the mountain wind once, Liu Dongxi was still tossing and turning, but Lu Yan was wearing a piece of clothing.
