Volume 1 The Return of the Old Man Chapter 27 Lotus Crown
Han Changdui heard Huang Huai say to the shopkeeper of the building boat that he was going to report to the official.
He scoffed.
Report to the official, who are you coaxing, isn't it going to find something?
After sending Huang Huai and the others away, the boat continued to move forward, encountering the bizarre and frightened dead and deceitful corpses, everyone would inevitably feel unlucky, and the passengers on the boat were quiet, except for dinner, they rarely went to the third floor platform to enjoy the scenery.
Han Changdui finally had the time to carefully explore the pile of things he brought back.
The blood-stained middle coat and the crimson robe were placed on the ground, and he held the silver scissors, unwrapped the edge of the shirt little by little, shook the strips of rags on the ground, and plunged into the strips of cloth again, rummaging lifelessly, and really found something.
Yao Qi knocked on the door, and when he walked into the room, he saw Han Changdui sighing at the finger-wide strip of white cloth all over the floor.
She opened her mouth and said in amazement, "Childe, you are." ”
Han Changwan lay on the ground, put together the strips of cloth, and knocked on the floor: "Come and see, the words on it, connected together, happen to be an ancient scripture in the Western Regions, which has been circulated in the market, and I have also read it, and the records on it are similar to those circulating in the market, and there are some changes in the scriptures, but people who are not familiar with it can't see it." ”
Yao Ji leaned over, those small characters were written on the strips of cloth, like countless black pressed flies, just one glance, I felt a headache.
In her previous life, when she followed Master Cheap to practice on Zhongnan Mountain, she had never been able to memorize all the 5,000-word Tao Te Ching, and now let her see this ancient scripture of the Western Regions that she can't understand or read, it's just fatal.
She secretly poked and poked and rolled her eyes, although she couldn't understand the scriptures, but this kind of ancient scriptures, she had seen a lot of the same when she was on errands, and at a glance she knew that it was a big road goods everywhere, and it would definitely not be the wave after wave of people, looking for death one after another, while rummaging for treasures.
Every verse is written on a strip of cloth, carefully sewn into the hem of the garment, it can be said that it is not a treasure, it is better than a treasure, and the scriptures have been changed, definitely not for cultivation, but hidden secrets that are not for outsiders.
But what is this secret?
Yao Qi had a flash of inspiration and glanced at Han Changdui.
Han Changdui said lightly: "What did you think of." ”
Yao Qi pointed to Han Changdu's hand: "That fake skin." ”
Han Changdui realized that the fake skin was taken off from the chest of the man in scarlet clothes, and he felt strange at that time.
I don't know what the fake skin is made of, and after sitting all night, it has dried up and curled up a little, but it is still the color of lifelike skin.
He carefully pinched the sides and shone in the light, and the translucent leather was covered with dense small eyes, like embroidery needles, sparse in some places, and dense in some places.
The needles are not evenly distributed, and you can't see anything.
He lifted his chin at Yao Qi.
Yao Ji realized that the development method in ancient times was nothing more than blister fire roasting and brushing some medicine, and he didn't find where the medicine was at the moment, so he could only try blisters and fire roasting first.
The fake skin soaked a cup of tea in clean water, and it didn't change.
and the effort of roasting a cup of tea not far from the candle flame was almost baked, and it did not change.
Han Changdui lowered his head, looked at the unchanged fake skin, and couldn't help but suspect that he was thinking left.
He thought about it, but still said: "You go and tell the shopkeeper, I'm seasick, boil some batter." ”
Yao Qi was stunned and nodded hurriedly.
After a while, she came in with a bowl of thick batter, and her face was slightly red from the steaming heat.
Han Changdui had already spread a piece of water-blue moire brocade on the ground, and glanced up at Yao Qi.
Yao Ji didn't say or ask, picked up some batter with his fingers, and spread it evenly on the brocade.
Han Changdui picked up a strip of cloth and stuck it on the batter.
The two of them cooperated tacitly, and after a short time, all the strips of cloth were pasted on the brocade, which became a complete ancient scripture of the Western Regions.
This ancient scripture is complete, but the fake skin has no clue.
Han Changdui suddenly spoke: "Do you know how to do it?" ”
Yao Qi was stunned and looked at Han Changdui deeply.
What was his misconception about her, that he would think she could do needlework?
Han Changwan understood what Yao Qi meant, and continued to say calmly: "Isn't it all about teaching needlework in the court? ”
Yao Qi pursed his lips and was silent, he had been taught in the court, but teaching and learning well were two different things.
In 360 states, there are thousands of readers, and there are several gold list titles every year.
Han Changwan raised his eyebrows: "Forget it, it's not difficult for you." He took out a few Nanmu beads, compared them with the light, pinched the dagger as thin as a cicada's wings, and carved words on one of them.
Yao Qi was very surprised, she came to the front, she had never been weak in heart because she couldn't do needlework before, but when Han Changdui asked her like this, she was weak and humble for the first time because she couldn't do needlework, and smiled: "Childe, what are you doing." ”
Han Changdui didn't raise his head, the knife in his hand fell on the beads, and he steadily engraved the hairpin flowers: "Engrave the scriptures on the beads and string them into a bracelet." ”
"So much." Yao Ji was speechless: "This has to be carved until the sky is old." ”
The first time Han Changwan heard such a statement, he felt very interesting, raised his head and glanced at Yao Ji, and said lightly: "Only engrave the changed scriptures, and I will memorize everything else." ”
"That's amazing." Yao Qi continued to babble and laughed: "This, I can help." ”
Han Changwan put down the dagger, took up the pen and traced a few lines on the scriptures, bent down and took out a dagger from his deerskin boots, which was exactly the same as the one he had used: "Then you carve slowly according to these scriptures I have described." He took the dagger and lit the strip of cloth: "I will engrave the first sentence, you will engrave the second sentence, and each bead will engrave a sentence, a total of eighteen sentences." ”
Yao Qi nodded, held the dagger, leaned under the lamp, and his hand was extremely steady.
The boat moves slowly on the wide water, undulating with the waves, and the green hills on both sides of the bank seem to have turned into colorful bright red and golden yellow overnight, reflecting in the rippling clear waves of autumn light, brilliant and dazzling.
In the water, the waves were turbulent, pushing the hull of the boat to shake, and the people also shook a few times.
Han Changdui raised her head and glanced at Yao Qi, she lowered her head with a focused expression, and the silver earrings hanging from her earlobes swayed with the undulations of the hull.
But she pinched the Nanmu beads in one hand and the dagger in the other, and each knife fell steadily, not lightly or heavily, but none of the knives slipped away.
Nanmu beads have the size of a thumb, round and bright, to engrave a whole sentence on the top, each word is smaller than the serious small Kai, the knife is difficult, and the wrist will inevitably be sour after carving for a long time.
After Yao Ji finished carving one, he put down the bead and dagger, moved his wrist, looked up, and saw the light in his eyes through the candle flame.
The room was so quiet that you could hear each other's breathing.
Han Changwan lowered his head quietly and continued to carve beads.
Yao Qi raised his eyebrows slightly.
The young envoy who slept with her.
The young envoy who was stripped of his pants by King Han.
She shook her head, she couldn't think about it anymore, she would make a mistake if she thought about it again.
She blasted out the cranky thoughts in her head, found the next sentence on the strip of cloth, and saw the deep and shallow cloud patterns on the brocade, tied to the head, tied to the head, she closed her eyes and thought about it, the wind blew the cloud patterns, tied to the head, it was really beautiful and beautiful.
She had a flash of inspiration, opened her eyes suddenly, turned and ran.
Han Changdui didn't know what was going on, looked at Yao Qi going out, and after a while, he watched her enter the door, holding a crown of blonde hair and a hairpin, which was the lotus crown worn by the boy in scarlet clothes.
Yes, it was Huang Huai who took it off the head of the boy in scarlet clothes and was picked up by Yao Ji.
Yao Qi held the crown of blonde hair she brought with her, looked at it carefully against the candlelight, and looked at it, with a solemn face.
The front of the golden crown is inlaid with a thumb-sized ruby, and from the outward of the gem, there are four openwork lotus flowers, between which are inlaid with lotus leaves carved from jasper the size of a thumb.
The lotus flower is ordinary, the lotus leaf is also ordinary, but the material is unusual, the ruby jasper lotus crown made of red gold is indeed a valuable object, in contrast, the hairpin that matches the hair crown is simpler.
The same red gold-headed hairpin is plain and pure, but the hairpin head is carved into the shape of a fish, the fish tail and fish head are bent, inserted into the hair crown, like a fish playing lotus leaves.
Fish play lotus leaves, fish play lotus leaves.
Yao Qi pinched his head and gestured back and forth on the golden crown.
She suddenly remembered a poem.
Fish play lotus leaf east, fish play lotus leaf west, fish play lotus leaf south, fish play lotus leaf north.
She thoughtfully rubbed back and forth on the fish's body, touching the shallow depression at the fish's mouth, as if there were different shades of patterns.
That's it, anyway, there is no way to do it, so let's just be a dead horse and a live horse doctor.
She held her head and found a lotus leaf in the order of this poem, and the fish's mouth buckled a little bulge in the middle of the lotus leaf, and turned it slightly.
With an unexpected click, the lotus leaf shifted a little.
Han Changdui heard the movement and also looked over.
Yao Ji concocted the same method, found the lotus leaves in turn, and twisted the bulge in the middle, causing the lotus leaves to deviate from their positions one after another.
But the change in this crown is limited to this, only the four lotus leaves have moved slightly, and there is no change in the side.
Han Changwan took the hair crown, rubbed it along the inner wall, and then took the hairpin in his hand, buckled it in the gap on both sides of the hair crown, and turned it gently.
The ruby set in the middle of the crown has moved a slight gap.
He flicked it with his hand.
There was a small gap in the ruby and the inlay base, and a pill fell out of it.
The two looked at each other in surprise, hiding it so hidden, it seems that this pill is a treasure.
Yao Ji came over with a bowl of water.
Han Changdu's eyes narrowed, he took the sharp hairpin and gently picked out a little medicine, put it in the water to dissolve, and soaked the whole fake skin into it.
Sure enough, as the two expected, after a while, the leather showed dense graphics and handwriting, like a map of a certain place, but it was not marked with the name of the place, but with numbers like one, two, three, etc.
Yao Qi's eyes lit up for a moment, and he saw the strips of cloth spread on the ground.
