16. Crossing others and crossing oneself
Wen Dan Val dismounted and landed right in front of the group of Xing'er who were blocking the door. Please search (product # book...... He obviously recognized Xing'er and asked in a low voice, "Block?"
Xing'er snorted, and hurriedly took out the cloth bag and showed it to Wen Danval.
He didn't look closely, waved his right hand, which was still holding the horsewhip, and motioned for Xing'er and the others to enter the mansion to talk. In just a few movements, the coldness of a superior person was revealed.
As soon as he took two steps, he found that Li Bing and his party were also following Xing'er, and asked another question, but Xing'er still only hummed. Wen Dan Val and Li Bing glanced at each other, the eyes of the yin owl flashed, and he said coldly: "Bodogo, Samo Kunai!"
"He let us go in together. Xing'er whispered to Li Bing, and then she didn't dare to come out, and followed closely behind the housekeeper.
Entering the gate, all the decorations of Wendan Mansion have changed the simplicity and simplicity of the door wall, the paint on the two floors is extremely fresh, there are jade broken decorations on the Tingbu, and the various plants in the flower garden are also extremely luxurious and atmospheric, and they are all out-of-season flowers, which cost a lot of effort.
A group of people entered a small hall with Wendanvar, in the middle of the two Taishi chairs under the hand seat, there are two rows of guest seats, eight wooden chairs split the left and right sides of the small hall, are small red sandalwood wood, hollow patterns are also finely carved.
As soon as the city lord of Wendan signaled to sit down, the four maids came in with tea. Here is different from the Central Plains, tea is a rare product, and idlers can't drink it.
"Six of them are from the Eastern Soil Tang Dynasty?"
This official dialect of the Central Plains caught Li Bing off guard, and he responded: "Yes." encountered a strong wind and waves on the way, but fortunately the apricot girl rescued her. β
In fact, it is not difficult to recognize the origin of Li Bing and the others, the clothes, appearance and accent are completely different from Shui Zhenla.
"Don't be surprised, my Shui Zhenla is located on the sea, doing business with the world, and all Chinese languages are naturally learned from a young age. Although the city lord of Wendan saw that Li Bing's bearing was extraordinary, he didn't want to delve into his origins. went straight to the topic: "Apricot girl, then you can take out the "Twelve Pictures of the Immortals". If it's genuine, I'll tell the yamen to release your brother. β
Apricot opened the cloth bag and took out the picture scroll inside. The so-called "Twelve Pictures" turned out to be just one pair.
Wen Dan Val took the scroll, picked up the top scroll, and the whole painting was completely spread out in front of everyone's eyesβtwelve palm-sized pieces of papyrus were neatly arranged on the scroll, each of which was the same shape and material. The lines on the papyrus are as simple as they can be, just a little man dancing with a sword and some simple notes next to it. The twelve figures are neatly arranged in three columns and four rows.
When Li Bing saw this picture scroll, he almost screamed in surprise. Anzi also seemed to see some doorways, touched his arm lightly, and was about to speak, when he saw Wen Dan Val close the picture scroll: "That's right, this is the real thing." You're really capable. Alright, you go back first, and I'll order the release of the people. β
Xing'er was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, city lord, for your kindness." Wendanval did not delay: "Okay, you go, tomorrow morning, I will send someone to let your brother out." I have important business for the evening, so I won't leave you behind. After speaking, he waved his hand and signaled that Xing'er and the others could leave.
The two officials opened the door and led a few people out of the hall.
"Brother Bing'er, do you think that the martial arts in those words are a bit similar to your swordsmanship?"
"Similar?" Li Bing touched his chin: "Not to mention similarity, those twelve pictures are the first twelve styles of my "Li Family Swordsmanship". After he finished speaking, he glanced back at Xu: "I actually have a crazy conjecture now!"
He looked at Miss Xing'er, but decided to say it without concealment: "You say, will it be that the first twelve styles of the "Li Family Sword Technique" are the ancestors of my family. Maybe even 'Taizong' himself!"
"You mean, 'Master Zu?'" Li Youfu suddenly realized: "My mother, I said that I thought I had seen those moves somewhere." It turned out that the real drop was the ancestor Liuhalaidi. β
"The Li family's swordsmanship, although it is not very profound, at most it can help people build a foundation and strengthen their muscles and bones, but it has been passed on by non-royal children for so many years, and outsiders should not be able to. Moreover, not only this, but the relief I saw on the riverside before also made me think that this Sulama City must have something to do with the Qin King Palace. What's more, when we come out of the Qin King Palace, we won't come here directly. β
When the apricot girl heard this, she naturally guessed Li Bing's origin, but she also kept silent and listened quietly.
As he was walking, Tida came up with his two younger siblings.
After talking to him in a low voice, Xing'er hurriedly said, "There is not much space at home, and Tida has found an inn for your fathers." The benevolents have been running around all day, so please go and rest with Tida first. I went to pick up my brother from prison. β
Pu Yuan said that he was willing to go with Xing'er, and if something happened, he could help. Xing'er only said that Wen Shan Val said that she would definitely put it if she put it. He also said that he had to go home to take care of his father who had a stroke and was disabled, and he didn't want to trouble everyone anymore. He also said that he would come with Thida the next day and take the six of them to have a good walk around Sulama City.
"Miss Apricot's kindness, we appreciate it. But there really is a need. If it's convenient, can you help inquire if there is a passenger ship to Datang here. We don't know the real language, it's really a little inconvenient. "Li Bing knew very well that to solve the danger of the Qin Palace, returning to Chang'an, contacting the people in the palace was the only way out. I have been delayed for many days in Zhenla, and I dare not stay any longer.
"There are not many passenger ships going to Datang, and there is only one in ten days and a half months. If Engong does not dislike it, with our credibility in Sulama, we can find merchant ships and let them give you a ride. β
Li Bing thanked him a few times, and under the guidance of Tida, he went to the inn to settle down.
When I arrived at the inn, there was a reserved table in the hall. Naturally, it was arranged in advance by Tida. Due to the language barrier and the lack of communication, Tita settled the six of them and left.
At the dinner table, Li Youfu's mouth kept chirping, and it was easy to finish eating a bowl of rice, turned his head to look, and said, "Brother Xu, I see why you are a little unhappy." β
Xu answered, and the usual smile on his face returned: "Oh." It's nothing, I originally thought that this "Twelve Pictures of the Immortals" was a page of the Three Phases Sutra...... It's just a little disappointing. β
"What is that?"
"Haha, nothing. It's just a little book. β
ββββββ
I haven't written it for a long time, and it doesn't feel very good, and this chapter is a little watery, and I can feel it myself, and the writing is not very smooth. But that's the plot. After two days, I'll come back and change the text.
