Chapter Sixty-Four: Just the Right Luck

The back house occupies a large area, the houses depend on each other, the pavilions and pavilions rockery and lakes should be a lot, and there is a vague architectural style of the Jiangnan garden, which is difficult to see in the north. Although the scenery of the building is beautiful, it has not been inhabited for several years, and although it has been cleaned, it is still more barren and bleak.

Mo Langyue and Zhu Yingying hurriedly walked around, and even found several places in the small kitchen, but they still didn't find the location of the wine cellar. The two of them stood beside the rockery near the lake and stopped to rest, but they couldn't think of any other places that had been forgotten and not found.

"It's strange, there must be a wine cellar in the huge old mansion, how can you not find it?"

Zhu Yingying sat on the railing near the water, holding her head thoughtfully.

"I remember that my aunt also said that she has wine and talent, and she is also an excellent wine person, how can there not be a decent wine cellar where she has lived?"

Mo Langyue was slightly silent, then nodded and said, "Don't worry, maybe it's because we haven't found the right place!"

After thinking about it, Zhu Yingying said: "Generally, the wine cellar must be underground, because only underground can there be a suitable temperature that is warm in winter and cool in summer, which is conducive to the preservation of fine wine." But we've almost all the places in the house where we can store wine, but we still can't find it!"

As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at Mo Langyue, hoping that he would give him an idea.

"If you think the layout of the big mansion is always a little similar, where will the wine cellar in the county lord's mansion be located?"

"My family?"

Zhu Yingying suddenly understood his intentions and exclaimed, "I know, the wine cellar must be under the rockery." ”

With that, the two of them quickly came to the bottom of the rockery. But there, apart from the vigorous weeds and moss, there was no portal to the underground.

"Not here?"

Zhu Yingying was a little disappointed and a little puzzled. At this time, she had no idea in her heart, and couldn't help but look at Mo Langyue again. But he saw that his eyes were not in the rockery, but the pavilion in the center of the small lake next to the rockery.

Zhu Yingying smiled when she saw it: "Could it be that you think that an ordinary wine cellar will be located under the lake?"

Mo Langyue looked back and smiled, and said, "The county lord thinks too much, but he doesn't think like this." Since we can't find it, and it's been delayed for a long time, why don't we go back here! Senior Xie drank on a whim, and even if he didn't drink alcohol, he wouldn't blame us. ”

"No, not going back!"

Zhu Yingying shook her head and said, "It's a shame that I didn't find the wine, but Yingying made a promise!"

Mo Langyue looked a little helpless, and said with a smile: "What else does the county lord want?"

"Yes, of course...... Keep looking!"

As she spoke, she also turned her head to look at the center of the lake, and said casually: "Maybe it's under the pavilion in the middle of the lake!"

Although she is relatively fat and is said to be easily tired, she is very persistent and energetic in this matter. So at her insistence, the two of them stepped on the stone bridge and entered the Lake Center Pavilion.

It was a hopeless thing, but here they unexpectedly found something unusual.

Under the stone table in the Pavilion of the Lake is the passage to the underground secret room, and the place to open the mechanism is the stone bench next to the table. Only with a certain amount of load-bearing pressure will the stone table sink into the stone slab to open the portal. And Zhu Yingying had no intention of sitting down to rest, so she accidentally touched the mechanism, but unexpectedly opened the secret room.

Under the Huxin Pavilion is a small secret room, there is good wine, and there are a lot of fine wines. However, there is more to this place than just wine.

Down the passage is a sloping staircase, and at the end of the staircase there is a small secret room. The light shone obliquely down from above, illuminating the entire chamber just right.

Except for the exit side, the rest of the directions are neatly stacked with wine jars, which are covered with a thin layer of dust due to the age. When I looked at all these wine jars, I found that there were all kinds of wine, and all kinds of wine jars.

"That's a lot!"

Seeing so much wine in the house, Zhu Yingying suddenly exclaimed, shouting that this was more than the wine in her house. She didn't want to think about it, her family had a simple population, and she was the only girl who could be the master of the house, so she was naturally not as good as other people's families.

Mo Langyue was much calmer, and he looked around carefully. Suddenly, a jar of wine caught his eye in a dimly lit corner.

In fact, the wine jar was covered with dust like the others, and at first glance it was not peculiar, and the color and size did not appear abrupt among the neatly arranged wine jars. But the strange thing is that there are some vague ornaments on its surface.

When Mo Langyue took it casually, he only felt curious, what kind of fine wine is worthy of such a fine wine jar, but when he held it in his hand, he felt that it was not strange.

The jar is not large but a little heavy, and there is a sense of flowing water in it. Mo Langyue took it in her hand and checked it, feeling that there was not much wine in it, but isn't it strange that the jar is so heavy?

He thought about it, then opened the lid and poured the drink on the floor, then reached inside.

At the bottom of the jar, there is a thick protrusion, which does not look like porcelain to the touch, but looks like a ...... Paraffin. He squeezed his fingers hard, and the protruding bag landed in his hand.

Really...... It's a bit weird!

The object taken out was a yellowish, oiled paper bag, completely sealed with paraffin wax on the outside. When I peeled off the paraffin, I saw that there were four or five layers of oiled paper wrapped inside.

"What is it?"

Zhu Yingying, who was still fiddling with the wine jar just now, suddenly walked over, staring at the package curiously, her eyes flashing brightly.

"The bag is so exquisite, you don't have to think that it must be a very precious thing. Could it be a sword book?"

"I don't know!"

Shaking her head, Mo Langyue reached out and peeled off the last piece of oiled paper.

The oiled paper was peeled off, and the first thing that caught my eye was a simple and thin booklet, with four large characters on the cover, but these characters were as strange as water waves, but they were not words that the general public could understand.

"What is it written, I don't know a word?"

Zhu Yingying's face was pulled, and her expression was extremely depressed. Just now, when she saw the book, she was indeed a little excited. Thinking that things would develop as she expected, she entered the secret room by chance, and there was a sword book hidden in the secret room, and the sword book was learned in the hand.......

But is this a sword book? Sure enough, she was usually bored and listened to books, and began to think about it. Obviously, there is such a thing as luck, which is not something that everyone can encounter.

Zhu Yingying didn't know those words, but Mo Langyue did. The booklet was indeed a sword book as she had thought. And the four words on the cover are the four words "Lingyin Sword Technique".

"It should be a sword book, and it was written in Sanskrit. ”

"Really, but ......"

Zhu Yingying was happy and disappointed again.

Although the first page of the sword book is also written in Sanskrit, the good thing is that it is accompanied by a few sets of simple illustrations of character moves. This is true on the next three, four, five, six, and seven pages, but on the last page, there are only text and no illustrations.

But it was written: He thinks I don't know anything, but the funny thing is that I know everything. Even if he is full of talent, he is as gentle as water, but he is not as pure as he is in his heart.

"You seem to understand, what are these?"

Zhu Yingying saw that Mo Langyue had not made a sound for a long time, so she asked out loud.

Mo Langyue was slightly stunned, and shook her head a little stiffly for a while. But at this moment, he suddenly saw a bright spot in the neatly stacked wine jar on the corner of the wall. His heart moved, and he couldn't help but look at it twice. But this time, I couldn't see anything.

"Yes, you can't understand it either, it's a pity!" Zhu Yingying did not hide the disappointment on her face.

Mo Langyue was thinking about how to comfort her, but the expression on her face changed, but she was smiling and cute.

"It's Yingying who is too greedy, it's luck to be able to find good wine, how can you force too much nothingness. It's better to carry a few more jars of good wine. ”

said that he would move, and the dignified county lord did not have a trace of hypocrisy, rolled up his sleeves and picked the two largest wine jars and moved them out.

"County Lord, don't you know that the better the wine, the smaller the wine jar?"

As he spoke, he also leaned over and picked up two small wine jars, and also turned around and walked out.
