Ye Changqing took two steps forward and knocked on the door.

After the knocker rang three times, Ye Changqing stopped moving.

After a while, the door was opened from the inside.

The door was opened by a middle-aged man in his forties.

The man is tall and strong, especially his chest and two arms, but just looking at it makes people feel that there is a strong explosive power contained in it.

Needless to say, you can know that this person must be the blacksmith Liu that Ye Changqing said.

After the door opened, the sturdy middle-aged man smiled heartily when he saw Ye Changqing, and said, "I just said that I seemed to feel a familiar aura just now." Changqing, you haven't come to see me for a while, and now that you've grown up, you almost don't recognize you...... Come on, come in, come in......"

The man stepped out of the way and let Ye Changqing and Su Yan walk into the gate and enter the courtyard.

Entering the courtyard, Ye Changqing bowed his hand to the man, bowed forward, and said, "Senior, I haven't seen you for a long time, today the junior came to visit you, and by the way, I will also bring the friends of the junior over to meet you." ”

"Okay, good! It's good to be here...... It's good to come. The man hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Ye Changqing up, and then followed Ye Changqing's words, looked at Su Yan, and waited for Ye Changqing's introduction: "Changqing, this friend of yours is ......"

"Oh, her name is Su Yan, and she is a very good friend of mine. Ye Changqing turned to Su Yan and introduced the senior: "This senior is the one I mentioned to you, who likes to strike iron with a hammer, my master's old friend." The senior's surname is Liu, you can call him Senior Liu. ”

"Senior Liu. Su Yan also saluted like Ye Changqing. Bow your hand and bow forward.

"Plain girl, huh...... Come on, I didn't prepare this for you in advance, this little gift is a meeting gift......" As he spoke, Blacksmith Liu rummaged through the storage bag, took out a box, and handed it to Su Yan: "Don't shirk it, are you disgusted......?" That's right...... Take it!" "The box that Blacksmith Liu took out was a wooden box that looked very delicately made.

Su Yan didn't expect that Blacksmith Liu would give a meeting gift to himself who met for the first time. I can't excuse myself, but I don't know what to do. could only ask for help and looked at Ye Changqing.

But seeing Ye Changqing smiling and nodding, he said that he could accept it. After thinking about it, Su Yan finally accepted the meeting gift.

After Su Yan took the wooden box, he found that there was nothing else superfluous on the front side of the wooden box, which was a landscape painting. But this landscape painting is all carved with carving tools, little by little by hand.

However, in front of the giver, you can't rush to check the gift, that would be very rude. So Su Yan just glanced at the box at the moment he took it, and only saw the carved picture of the front side of the box.

Then Su Yan put the box in the storage bag.

However, although it is only a quick glance and only the carved picture above, the content of the painting is very rich.

However, since it is said to be a landscape painting, it must be based on landscapes, but it is not just landscapes.

I saw that the front side of the box, that is, the lid, had a mountain peak carved on it.

On the top of this mountain, there is also a gazebo carved in the gazebo, and in the pavilion there are also carved two people, and there is also a chessboard carved between the two people, and the posture of the two people is on both sides of the chessboard in a fierce game.

That's right, even the chess pieces on the chessboard, the carver did not ignore it, there are carvings.

Although the size ratio of the chess pieces is already very, very small, the carver is not ambiguous, but a chess piece by piece, as long as it can be seen from a normal angle, all of them are carved one by one, without a trace of cutting corners.

The size of the chess pieces on it is not much smaller than the tip of a needle, but the carver carved it.

And not far from the pavilion halfway up the mountainside, there is also carved a waterfall down the cliff, and under the cliff there is also carved a waterhole, and the splash in the waterhole is not ignored, the same carving.

On the right side of the waterhole, facing up, there is a wooden house carved out of wood, and there are people in the wooden house looking out of the window, as if someone is calling him.

......

As for the pictures mentioned above, it was only the front side of the wooden box facing up, and Su Yan only saw it at a hurried glance the moment he took it.

It's just that because her cultivation realm is there, and her eyesight is amazing, she can see very small pictures very clearly in the case of a hurried glance. For example, the chess pieces in the gazebo, which are smaller than the tip of a needle, are not clearly seen by ordinary people, and may not even be able to see them.

As for the remaining five noodles, Su Yan had already put the box into the storage bag, so naturally he didn't see it.

However, the touch of the box told her that the other faces were also carved with something.

Su Yan estimated that it should be the same as the landscape painting she saw. After all, it's the same box, and that one painting doesn't look complete, and the other sides just complete it.

As for where the landscape is carved on the box, and whether it is a real landscape, Su Yan said that he does not know. But she can see through this landscape painting that the carver is skilled and accomplished in this aspect of carving.

Who would have thought...... Anyway, Su Yan didn't expect that a small wooden box could carve a landscape painting so delicate and detailed, so lifelike, which can be called ingenious.

......

After the meeting gift was given, Blacksmith Liu beckoned the two into the hall and sat down. Then he brought tea and made it for the two of them.

Seeing this, Ye Changqing and Su Yan hurriedly got up to help, and Blacksmith Liu waved his hand to let the two sit down. He said: "There is no reason to let guests get up and help." Just sit down. ”

After blacksmith Liu made tea for the two of them, he then chatted to Ye Changqing: "What has Lao Zhu been doing recently? I haven't seen anyone else for more than a year. ”

"Master hasn't had anything going on lately. Ye Changqing took a sip of the teacup and said, "Master likes to play chess, you know." It just so happened that Master Xuanjing of Kongo Temple also liked to play chess, so the two often got together. I guess Master, his old man's house is now in the Kongo Temple. ”

Far away in the far west, in the bamboo forest of the Sunset Mountains. Lao Zhu and Hu Lei were in the courtyard in front of the bamboo house, fighting fiercely.

After a while, Lao Zhu slapped the table and said angrily: "Gorilla, can you play chess, you? You have muscles in your body, is your brain full of muscles......

Before Lao Zhu finished speaking, suddenly a cold female voice came from the sky above the bamboo forest: "His brain is indeed full of muscles." ”

After saying a word, the owner of the senleng female voice had already appeared and landed in the courtyard.

This is a tall, fair-skinned and beautiful woman.

The woman was dressed in a white dress, with long hair behind her waist and swaying in the wind. The woman had a white storage bag hanging from her waist and a glittering sword in her hand.

Then I saw the long sword in the woman's hand aimed at the thunder and said: "I haven't seen your shadow for half a month, where did you die?"

"??!!" Hu Lei firmly grasped Lao Zhu's big hand with both hands, and looked at Lao Zhu like a life-saving straw.

"Hiss......" Lao Zhu looked at Hu Lei with a toothache, and then looked at the woman in white with a sword. I just want to find someone to play chess, why did I mess with such a?
