Chapter 124 [What to Think] (II)
Luo Lie smiled: "You are in Beiping during this time?"
Sparrow nodded and said: "Luo Xingmu is dead, all the clues to find the Yushen Monument have been interrupted, Fu Bo originally asked me to stay in Yingkou to help him, I thought about it, or came to Beiping, I have been tidying up the house during this time." Speaking of this, she glanced at Luo Lie and said, "Actually, I found out when you and An Zhai followed me that day, so I came to treat others in the same way." ”
Luo Lie laughed, he was still careless after all.
Sparrow said: "I thought you would come to me, but you didn't come these days, so I had to take the initiative to ask you." ”
Luo Lie said: "What do you ask me to do?"
The sparrow was furious by his question, but it was not easy to attack, and he didn't know how to answer, and only after a while did he say: "After all, my father gave the house to Luo Xingmu back then, and Luo Xingmu gave it to you, so the house should have belonged to you." ”
Luo Lie smiled: "It's yours and it's always yours, I don't want it." ”
Sparrow said: "Let's go, go to my house and sit down, and by the way, I will invite you to have a meal." ”
Luo Lie happily agreed, this is not far from Ma Boxuan's old residence, and it has been arrived in half an hour's walk. Luo Lie thought that such a large mansion would invite a few servants, but after arriving, he realized that only Sparrow lived here.
It was not a sudden idea for the sparrow to invite Luo Hunt over for dinner, she had prepared before, and not long after the two arrived, the master of the Royal Forest Building opposite brought the food over, and also slapped a hot roast duck from the oven on the spot.
There are a lot of good wine stored in the house, all of which were given by others when Ma Boxuan was alive, Ma Boxuan did not smoke and drink before his death, his only hobby was to read, and the wine given to him by others was all stored in the wine cellar in the backyard, and the sparrow specially selected a jar of tribute wine that had been stored for 30 years, and it is said that this jar of wine was given to him by Prince Hong Zaixiang.
After the wine jar was opened, the aroma of wine was overflowing, Luo Lie sniffed, and praised sincerely: "Good wine, you are willing to give me such a good wine to drink." ”
Sparrow said, "Think I'm as stingy as you?"
Luo Lie held up the wine jar, poured the wine into the blue and white porcelain wine jug first, then filled it for the sparrow first, poured a glass himself, picked up the wine glass and said: "For the reunion of the two of us after a long absence." ”
Sparrow picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "It's not too long, just over a month." ”
Luo Lie nodded and said, "Xiao Biesheng is newly married, it's done!"
The sparrow's face turned crimson, and he snorted: "If I beat you, I will take advantage of it." He took the initiative to touch Luo Lie's cup, raised his head and drank it all, drank this cup of wine, and couldn't help but stick out his tongue and said, "It's not delicious, I still drink tea." ”
Luo Lie pointed to the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose and said, "There are only two of us here, there is no need to pretend to be pedant." ”
The sparrow took off his glasses, took out a red head rope, pulled his short hair to the back of his head, and found that Luo Lie was still staring at him, and said with a hot face: "What do you see?
Luo Lie said: "Are you not confident in yourself?
Sparrow said: "The world is not peaceful, be careful." ”
Luo Lie nodded, and stuffed a piece of chicken into his mouth, tender and juicy, Sparrow's cooking skills were indeed first-class.
Sparrow picked up the wine jug to help him fill the empty glass, and whispered, "What are you coming to Peking for this time?"
Luo Lie said: "Some small things. ”
The sparrow, apparently not satisfied with his answer, slammed the flask and said, "You can't believe me." ”
Luo Lie smiled and didn't speak, eating food by himself.
Sparrow said: "Let me guess, is it related to Ye Qinghong?"
Luo Lie didn't deny it or admit it.
The sparrow looked at him angrily and said, "You will be killed by that woman sooner or later!"
Luo Lie said: "You misunderstood, Zhou Xiaodie is missing, I came to Beiping this time to find her." He didn't want Sparrow to know about the deal between him and Ye Qinghong.
The sparrow was relieved at this time, and whispered: "Zhou Xiaodie?" She and Zhou Xiaodie are not familiar with each other, but they only had a relationship in Baishan, but at that time, because of the recognition of Fang Kewen, the sparrow chose to leave quietly, so he didn't know much about Zhou Xiaodie, despite this, the sparrow also knew that the blind man had a soft spot for Zhou Xiaodie, and immediately guessed that Luo Lie came to find Zhou Xiaodie for the blind man.
Sparrow said: "I still have some friends in Beiping, why don't I help you find them?"
Luo Lie wanted to say that he wouldn't trouble her, but thinking of Sparrow's usual warm-heartedness, if he refused, he would make her angry, so he nodded and said, "It's okay." ”
A knowing smile appeared on the sparrow's pretty face, Luo Lie promised to prove that he didn't regard himself as an outsider, picked up the teacup and toasted a glass of wine with Luo Lie, and said, "I've thought about it, this house will be returned to you." ”
Luo Lie was stunned for a moment and said, "Why?"
Sparrow said: "You forgot, we agreed that you would help me find Luo Xingmu, and I would give you the house in Beiping." ”
Luo Lie pretended to be trying hard to remember, and finally nodded and said, "It seems that there is such a thing, but you seem to have promised me another thing at that time......" His eyes looked the sparrow up and down.
Sparrow's pretty face flushed, and she shook her head vigorously and said, "I didn't promise you, it was your wishful thinking." ”
Luo Lie liked to see the sparrow's helpless appearance, and couldn't help laughing.
Sparrow chirped, "Villain, you deliberately played tricks on me. ”
Luo Lie said: "Let's get down to business, I don't want this house, and Luo Xingmu didn't help you find it, he took the initiative to get you in the morning." "It's not that Luo Lie took the initiative to explain the sparrow, that's the case.
Hearing Luo Lie say this, Sparrow naturally felt a lot better in her heart, she bowed forward and said, "Luo Lie, seriously, did you really see Luo Xingmu die with your own eyes?"
Luo Lie nodded, he witnessed Luo Xingmu being killed by the human face butterfly in the Nine Secret Realms, and also took the Seven Treasures Shelter Talisman from his corpse, Luo Xingmu's death was certain.
Sparrow sighed a little lost and said: "Luo Xingmu is the only person who knows about the Yu God Monument, and if he dies, the clue of the Yu God Tablet will be broken." She suddenly remembered one more thing, raised her eyes and stared at Luo Lie and said, "How do you know the content of the inscription that my father translated back then?" The reason why she asked like this was because Luo Lie read out the sixteen words handwritten by Luo Xingmu in order to rescue her from Luo Xingmu's hands-Chongchu Shiqi, Laoyu Shenqi, and Manjimi. Nandu Yanchang. Even she couldn't recognize all these sixteen words, and it was because of this that Luo Xingmu let herself go.
Luo Lie said: "Don't forget his relationship with me. ”
Of course, Sparrow knows that Luo Xingmu and Luo Lie are uncles and nephews, but this does not explain the reason why Luo Lie understands Dayu's inscription, and Sparrow did not ask any further, after all, Luo Hunt was to save herself at that time, as long as she knew that Luo Hunt cared about herself, it was enough for Luo Lie not to harm herself, and there was no need to ask about the rest.
The sparrow said, "Come, I'll show you something." ”
Luo Lie followed the sparrow to the small building in the backyard, Ma Boxuan has a lot of books, there are five rooms on the second floor of the small building, all of which are his collection of books during his lifetime, among which there are many precious heirloom books, aside from Ma Boxuan's character, his knowledge is definitely worthy of the word profound knowledge, especially in the study of ancient characters is second to none.
Sparrow took a book from the bookshelf and handed it to Luo Lie, Luo Lie took a look, but this book was the second volume of the "Collected Memories" in the line-bound version, and looked at the page where the bookmark was, but saw that it was written: "Yu casts nine tripods, five to respond to the yang method, and four to count like yin." The engineer takes the female gold as the yin tripod and the male gold as the yang tripod. Dingzhong is always full, in order to account for the rest of the weather. When Xia Ji was in the world, the water was boiling. And at the end of the week, Jiuding Xianzhen. All should be a sign of destruction. Later generations of saints, because of the traces of Yu, from generation to generation. ”
Jiuding said, Luo Lie has long heard of it, according to the left biography, Jiuding is based on the advance of the country's states of the famous mountains and rivers, the shape of the place, the strange things into an atlas, and then send a selection of famous craftsmen, these paintings are engraved on the body of Jiuding, with a tripod to symbolize a state. The carved figures also reflect the state's mountains and rivers. Jiuding symbolizes Kyushu, reflecting the unity of the whole country and the high concentration of royal power, showing that King Xia has become the co-lord of the world and is in accordance with the "Mandate of Heaven". As the saying goes: "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister." Since then, Kyushu has become synonymous with China, and "Dingding" has become synonymous with the establishment of national political power.
There is also a saying that Jiuding is the nine-legged tripod, but there are not many supporters of this statement. What really caught Luo Lie's attention was the annotation on this page of "Collecting Memories", which should have been annotated by Ma Boxuan himself, he agreed with Jiuding's statement, and specially marked the inscription of Dayu in it.
At this time, Sparrow has extracted a stack of historical materials from the bookshelf, including "Zuo Chuan", "Historical Records", "Feng Zen Book", "Han Book", "Warring States Policy" and so on, all of which are marked with bookmarks.
Sparrow picked up the books and put them on the desk, clapped his hands and said, "There are many more, I'll find them for you." ”
Luo Lie said: "Don't be so troublesome, what do you want to illustrate when you look for these books?"
Sparrow said: "During this time, when I was sorting out the books, I found that my father was looking for the Dayu inscription not only to prove the existence of Xia Wen, but also he thought that the text recorded on the Yushen tablet was related to the legendary Jiuding. ”
Luo Lie once saw the Yu God Tablet floating on the crater, although the situation was critical, he still firmly remembered the words on the Yu God Tablet, those words are esoteric and obscure, soon after getting out of danger, he immediately wrote the text unchanged, but with his current knowledge still can not understand the true meaning, literally, the Yu inscription is just an article for Yu to sing the praises of virtue.
