Chapter Seventy-Three: Trust

Without waiting for Mo Tianze to finish speaking, I stopped and said: "The wood of this courtyard is camphor wood, which is dense and insect-resistant, fragrant and has the effect of preventing insects and snakes, and looking at this wood, these camphor wood is at least more than fifty years old, and the wood on the ground is estimated to be more than a hundred years, but..." ”

"But what?" That Mo Tianze glanced at me and asked with a smile.

I said: "However, what puzzles me is that the material of the courtyard is camphor wood, and the camphor wood is not suitable for coffins, and then at this scale, the coffin material above the courtyard should be golden silk nanmu, depending on the five elements, camphor wood belongs to water, golden silk nanmu belongs to fire, the so-called water and fire are incompatible, with these two kinds of wood placed in the mausoleum, it is bound to destroy the feng shui of the whole mausoleum, so.... ”

After that, I looked at the courtyard building and said firmly: "I conclude that this courtyard building should not be all camphor wood, every third camphor wood will be mixed with a kind of earth-row wood, and after three will be mixed with a golden wood, and after three will be mixed with a wood row." ”

When Mo Tianze heard this, the smile on his face became even worse, and he said, "Yes, can you see what kind of wood it is?" ”

I nodded, my eyes closed slightly, my mind cleared, my mind kept wandering, at this scale, its wood must be expensive, and among the expensive wood, I have to pick out the wood that is resistant to moisture and insects, after all, these woods are placed in the mausoleum, these two are necessary conditions, plus they must meet the five elements.

My eyes lit up, and I immediately said, "Yellow rosewood, small-leaved rosewood, large-leaved rosewood." ”

As soon as these words came out, Mo Tianze suddenly laughed, "Yes, yes, your senior brother sent me a letter saying that you have a good talent, I don't believe it yet, today is a long experience." ”

"Senior brother?" I was stunned and exclaimed.

As if he realized something, he stopped and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing, Dongchuan, in your opinion, why can't these organs function normally?" ”

I thought about it for a while, and it was really hard to say, so I shook my head and said I didn't know.

That Mo Tianze seemed to know that I would say this, and said with a smile: "When Xie Leiting asks you this question, you tell him that the reason why these organs cannot function normally is because these woods have been eroded by the blood of the crows, causing the five elements of the entire courtyard to lose balance, if you want to solve this problem, you have to say seriously, it is best to have a big Fa ceremony, and in terms of time, you try to delay them for three days." ”

Rituals?

I still remember that when Wang Jiong told me about this, he mentioned that before the completion of the project, Mo Tianze proposed to invite the opera troupe to come to Shenwu Mountain to sing a big opera, and then the strange thing of the crow surrounding the mountain happened, and now he asked me to propose a magic ceremony, is it a little strange in the middle?

Seeing that I didn't speak, Mo Tianze smiled and said, "What? Don't believe me? ”

I didn't hide it from him, and nodded, "Sort of." ”

He smiled and said lightly: "You think so, it is reasonable, I can only tell you, if you believe me, no matter what I do, you can just believe it, if you don't believe me, even if you say a thousand words, it still can't withstand the disbelief in your heart." ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and patted me on the shoulder, and continued: "You think about it yourself, and I'll take you to see the mechanism of this courtyard first." ”

I sighed, and looked at him meaningfully, perhaps as he said, if you believe in a person, you will be convinced, and if you don't believe it, I am afraid that even the punctuation may not be credible.

For a while, I didn't have an idea, so I hurriedly followed, and found that the place where he led me was northwest of the courtyard.

When he came to the northwest, he stopped, glanced at me, and said lightly: "Dongchuan, this dark ground is not all ground, the position close to the courtyard tower is an open space, remember." ”

After that, he stepped on the dark ground and leaned towards the courtyard building, stopped at a position five meters away from the courtyard building, he raised his hand and pointed towards the tip of the courtyard building, and said lightly: "According to my original design, there is an automatic lifting staircase in this position, when the deceased enters the tomb, just put the corpse on it, activate the mechanism, and the corpse can be automatically put into the coffin above, and then turn off the mechanism, the whole courtyard building will be like an iron bucket, once an outsider enters, there will be no life." ”

In the last four words, he was particularly heavy.

When I heard this, I thought about it for a while, and it seemed that this courtyard was not as simple as it seemed, so I said, "What about now?" ”

"Now?" He muttered, looked at me, and said lightly: "Since there are people inside the Eighth Office who want to destroy the mausoleum, I will place the elevator in the Gengxin position. ”

Heptxin bit?

I muttered, looked around, and immediately found that Gengxin's position was three meters away from our current position.

It's just that what I don't understand is that he deliberately set this climbing ladder at the Gengxin position, but led me here to do it?

I asked this question, and he smiled and said, "Because Xie Leiting knows that the location is here, so when you tell him about this courtyard, you must remember that the elevator is in this location." ”

I immediately understood what he meant, and estimated that he had deceived Xie Leiting a lot of things, and I was relieved to think about it, people like Mo Tianze will definitely have a back hand, and will never show all his hole cards, just like he left a way to live for himself, which is the same reason.

After all, since ancient times, organ carpenters have a hobby of leaving a way back, and it is reasonable for Mo Tianze to do this.

Just when I was stunned, Mo Tianze patted me on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Dongchuan, do you understand?" ”

I nodded, but didn't speak, mainly thinking about whether to trust him completely.

That Mo Tianze should have seen my doubts, and said with a smile: "Of course, if you don't believe me, you can tell Xie Leiting what you have seen, heard, and found truthfully." ”

After saying this, he looked at me a few times and said no more.

In this way, neither of us spoke, and the whole scene fell silent.

After about a minute, I smiled and said, "I believe that people who know the Mo family's organs should not be able to deceive their apprentices." ”

When he heard this, he seemed to think of something, and laughed, "Yes, life is a gamble, if you bet right, you will gain a lot, if you bet wrong, you will also lose a lot, it depends on how you weigh it." ”

I didn't speak directly, but stared at him for a while, and then slowly spoke: "Uncle Mo, I believe that you can teach a responsible daughter like Mo Qianxue, and your character should not be bad." ”

He smiled and said, "It depends on what you think." ”

After speaking, he led me around the courtyard building, told me all the mechanisms near the courtyard, and told me that I only needed to point out the location of these institutions, and with Xie Leiting's knowledge, he would definitely believe that I had the ability to make these organs well.

I didn't express an opinion on this, after all, who can say clearly about the unknown, everything will only be known when it happens.
