"Since this is the case, then I will agree to this matter, I will keep this bronze piece for you first, you can rest assured." Although Zhen Xun was curious about why Ying'er would say that the coppersmiths of Panlong City would not be able to make top-grade bronze ware without leaving their homeland, they did not ask any more questions, but just carefully put the bronze pieces into the Qiankun bag.

Before Zhen Xun could ask about the use of the bronze piece, he felt that the hand that was stretched into the Qiankun bag was rubbed by something, warm and fluffy, and Zhen Xun touched it again—chrysanthemum! How did she forget about this deformed leopard?

Ju Yu gently held Zhen Xun's fingers, as if he wanted to express something.

took out Ju Xun, Ju Yu turned into the size of a milk cat with interest, stretched his waist, and then climbed onto Zhen Xun's feet, grabbed Zhen Xun's calves with his little paws, looked up and said, "Where are you going?" I'm going too. ”

"Can it go to Panlong City together?" Zhen Xun asked for Ying'er's opinion, checked the Qiankun bag and added, "It won't run around, I have a cat bag." ”

"Yes, but be careful not to let the kittens eat indiscriminately." Ying'er bent down and observed the black little milk cat, Ju Yu immediately jumped down, stretching his head and sniffing Ying'er's fingers.

Seeing that the cooperation was almost over, Ying'er said that she wanted to discuss with her master about inviting Zhen Xun to enter Panlong City, so she said goodbye to Zhen Xun.

"Tell me, what's the matter with you." Zhen Xun carried the back of Ju Yu's neck and put it on the table.

Ju spread it on the table and turned up his belly.

"You're not so clingy when you're fine." Zhen Xun said coldly, but his hand stretched out uncontrollably to Ju Yu's soft belly.

"There is a familiar smell on the things you just put into the Qiankun bag, a bit like the smell of Tan Rampant." Ju Yu turned over and said with a snort, "Actually, the smell on your body is also a bit similar to Tan Rampant." Hey, hey, the relationship between me and Tan Rampant is not what you think, if you gossip like those immortals, Tan Rampant should ignore me again. ”

The Tan in Ju Xu's mouth, Zhen Xun still knew about it, and she asked Ju Xu: "Is it the tree demon Tan Rampant on the south bank?" ”

At the beginning, many of the books that Kang Hui recommended to himself were related to myths and legends. One of the books is called "Nanba Chronicles", which mentioned Tan Rampant: the land of Nanba, there is a big tree in ancient times, the name Tan is rampant, more than 1,000 feet high, the branches and leaves cover the fu, I don't know its thousands of miles, there are cranes to inhabit, because of the name of the place called the white crane. After thousands of years, its tree withered over time, turned into a goblin, changed bravely, and could kill people.

Ju Yu retorted: "Ah Tan is not a demon, where is Nanba?" Tan is the most beautiful little tree I have ever seen, she is not as stunned as other trees, she likes the wind, she yearns for freedom, she will patiently listen to my stories. ”

It may also be the same name, Zhen Xun thought so, and didn't ask anymore.

The day of the appointment to go to Panlong City soon came, Zhen Xun put the chrysanthemum into the Qiankun bag, and met her master, the ghost stonemason Liangsheng, under the recommendation of Ying'er.

Liang Sheng is a silver-haired woman wrapped in a brown robe, with a fair and smooth face, which makes people can't guess her age, and she also wears a pair of black gloves with no visible material but a well-cut cut on her hands, and her light-colored eyes similar to Ying'er are full of vicissitudes.

After running around for a few days, Liang Sheng asked Ying'er and Zhen Xun to change into brown robes similar to himself, and after inserting a bronze token into the keyhole of the city gate, the heavy city gate made a creaking sound, and then slowly opened, and the group finally arrived at Panlong City at noon.

There were a few hurried people in the empty streets, and an old woman with cloudy eyes saw the three of them, and muttered with her toothless mouth, and did not know what to say.

After Liang Sheng saw it, he just reminded the two to hurry up and not stay.

Seeing the courtyard of the Xian family, Zhen Xun understood what it meant to be "impregnable", and the lower end of the metal-poured mansion gate was a few pulleys, so after confirming the identity, after a government soldier whistled, he easily pushed the main gate open.

The cool breeze from the pavement smelled of sulfur, the four cornices were hung with brass bells, and the corridors were lined with high walls of polished ore, and the gray-black walls were mottled with a mixture of blue and purple.

This guard is inevitably too strict, after the maid who came to answer bowed and saluted, she took the luggage of several people, Zhen Xun was about to say thanks, but heard Liang Sheng say: "No need to say thanks, they can't hear the sound." ”

Ying'er explained on the side: "These maidservants are the slaves of the Xian Mansion, and they can't hear or speak before they enter the mansion. ”

Along the way, Zhen Xun also saw several maids wearing the same clothes as these women, thinking that they were also slaves, could it be that the Xian family was specially recruited by the deaf and dumb women? But in this way, are there too many deaf and mute people in Panlong City?

Thinking about it, it was even more weird, the chrysanthemum in the Qiankun bag was restless from the moment he entered the door, and it wasn't until he entered the room that Zhen Xun untied the Qiankun bag and let the chrysanthemum stretch out the cat's head.

Liang Sheng took off his robe and handed it to Munu. Another Murnu knelt at the low table where the men were seated and poured tea for them in a clay pot.

"This water is taken from the Li River." The Li River is the only source of living water in Panlong City that can be directly drunk.

Liang Sheng, who had stripped her robe, was slender and coquettish, and her silver hair was even more strange in comparison, and she still wore the black gloves on her hand holding the thick pottery cup.

Zhen Xun picked up the porcelain cup, the tea soup had not yet been entered, he had already smelled the refreshing fragrance of tea, and took a sip gently, the tea soup was also suitable for the temperature of the entrance, the fingertips only felt faintly warm, and it was only a moment before the tea was poured into this cup, Zhen Xun saw with his own eyes the hot mist of the tea when Muru poured the tea.

It seems that this Xian family still has some skills, Zhen Xun carefully observed the quaint thick white pottery cup in his hand, presumably this is one of the three secret skills of the Xian family's inner door "hard pottery".

"The situation in Panlong City must have been told by Ying'er to the goddess before." Liang Sheng said, looking at Zhen Xun's eyes with more gratitude, but before Liang Sheng could continue, a guard hurriedly broke in, approached Liang Sheng's ear and whispered something, Liang Sheng's expression changed abruptly, and after saying "unaccompanied", he picked up his robe and draped it on his body, and left with the guard.

Ying'er, who was not familiar with the Xian family, was also cramped, she and Zhen Xun chatted about a few drinking water plans discussed in advance, the method of digging a well, the residents of Panlong City had already tried many times, and each time it was in vain. If you want to dig a canal, you need to investigate the topography of Panlong City and the surrounding area in advance, and carry out it in layers and sections from top to bottom.

Just as the two discussed asking Liang Sheng to help find the locals as a guide, Mo Nu on the side walked up to them with a tangled step, his eyes flashing.

Thinking of the situation of Munu, Zhen Xun dipped his fingers in the tea in the cup, wrote the word "what" on the low table, and asked Ying'er: "Is she literate?" “

Ying'er didn't know either, and the two looked at Murnu.

Murnu knelt down, her cheeks flushed, she grabbed Zhen Xun's arm tightly with one hand and shook it pleadingly, pointed to her mouth with the other finger, opened her mouth to speak, and the sound she made was also incomprehensible "Ahhhh

Murnu repeated the vague voice several times, and Zhen Xun could see from the shape of her mouth, and the words released by Muru in front of her were clear: "Help-help-me-".
