Chapter 41: Darkiron
Xiao Ruoshui stared at Shangguan Yanran with joy on her face, which made Shangguan Yanran's face blush, and she glanced at Xiao Ruoshui with some disgust, Xiao Ruoshui hurriedly took a step back, and her face was embarrassed with a hint of apology.
"I'm sorry, I'm a little anxious to know the origin of this piece of dark iron, and I'm a little impulsive, and I forgot about Shangguan girl Haihan. Xiao Ruoshui took a diagonal step, stood opposite Shangguan Yanran, and looked at Shangguan Yanran across the table, with an expression of urgency to know the answer.
"Xiao Gongzi doesn't have to mind too much, I seem to have seen this thing in the Treasure Pavilion of Tianlai Villa, there seems to be an explanation next to it, let me think about what it is?" Shangguan Yanran picked up the dark iron and touched it carefully, her brows furrowed and she thought about it carefully.
Time passed little by little, Xiao Ruoshui sat down, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, and put them on the table. Patiently waited for Shangguan Yanran to think about it.
"This is Xuantie, the treasure pavilion of our Tianlai Mountain Villa is generally used for learning, so there are detailed instructions next to it, and I can't remember it all, I'm afraid there are not many people who can remember. If it's not all, then please forgive Childe. This is Xuantie, which comes from the meteors outside the Western Regions, and the Xuantie of Tianlai Villa was given to our old owner by the King of Loulan, and it is said that it is to repay the great kindness of the old owner. The winner of Xuantie has the right to ask the king of Loulan to do a thing, generally only those who have a great favor to Loulan can get it, Xuantie is extremely hard, the sword is difficult to break, only a special liquid made by the king of Loulan can cast words on it, so the gift of Xuantie is generally impossible to counterfeit, only the king of Loulan can give it, so this Xuantie should be a personal name. It is the name of the king of Loulan in order to repay his kindness. Shangguan Yanran touched the Xuantie and observed carefully. Tilting his head and recalling carefully.
"Loulan, king?" Xiao Ruoshui blurted out. He carefully began to recall what had happened in the past few days, and now there was suddenly another clue, but it also made his mind instantly messy, he always felt that the truth was getting closer and closer to him, but it was the immediacy that floated in his mind, but he couldn't grasp it with his hands, and it drifted away in an instant.
"That's right, I'm sure this Xuantie is a token of Loulan Kingdom, and the only difference between the one in Tianlai Mountain Villa and this one is that the letters on it are different. Nothing else is different. Shangguan Yanran put the iron piece on the table and said to Xiao Ruoshui with certainty.
"It's getting more and more complicated, from the dustless palace of Qingcheng Mountain and the grassland are connected, the iron pieces of Qingcheng Mountain are connected with the Loulan country in the desert of the Western Regions, what are these for? Is it really for the things left by Yang Chong? Could it be that the words of the dustless hall and the words in the ancient tomb imply something?" Xiao Ruoshui picked up the tea bowl and drank it slowly, falling into deep thought.
"I won't bother you, I'll go see Miss Li, you think slowly." Shangguan Yanran watched Xiao Ruoshui fall into contemplation and meditation, and she hurriedly said hello and left. Go to the inner room to see how Li Yunmeng is doing.
"Okay, go ahead, she's in the inner room. Xiao Ruoshui pointed to Shangguan Yanran, and then withdrew his finger. Holding his cheeks and looking at the iron piece on the table, he was stunned.
What does the meaning of the six characters that Yang Chong left behind in the Qingcheng Mountain Dustless Palace? Why did he leave these six words in both the ancient tomb and the Dustless Palace? What was his purpose? Why did the person who pretended to be a god and a ghost have a token of the Loulan Kingdom, and why did he pretend to be a god and a ghost when he had the token of the Loulan Kingdom? Could it be that he wanted to get something? What did the poison and cup in their hands have to do with the southwest? Why did these people come to Qingcheng Mountain? A series of questions appeared one after another in his mind, which made Xiao Ruoshui start to think about it little by little. But the more I thought about it, the more confused I felt, and my mind became more and more dizzy. Before he knew it, he fell asleep on the table.
When Xiao Ruoshui slowly opened his eyes, the sky was already bright. He was already lying on the bed, and he opened his eyes. Letting his eyes adjust to the harsh sunlight, and then he sat up, he reached out to touch the darkiron, but when he didn't touch it, he was taken aback, jumped up, put on his clothes, and rushed to the outhouse to look at the table. Four dishes were placed on the table, and he rushed over and opened the plates, but there was still no trace of Xuantie. He looked carefully and suddenly heard a knock on the door, he raised his head to look at Li Yunmeng who pushed the door in at the door, and he didn't speak yet. I heard Li Yunmeng say: "Eat first, don't look for it, I'll put it up for you." After speaking, he walked to the table with rice porridge and gave him a blank look.
"You put it away for me, that's great, I still want to find it, I'm afraid I'll lose it." Xiao Ruoshui sat at the table, picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat.
"Wash it off, it's dirty. Li Yunmeng hit Xiao Ruoshui's hand with chopsticks and urged him.
Xiao Ruoshui grimaced, walked to the side and began to wash, and after a while, the two began to eat together.
"The dark iron and the things on your body are packed in the backpack, and you can put them on your back in a while, so it won't be easy to lose things. Li Yunmeng said while drinking millet porridge.
"By the way, I'm going to the Dustless Hall in a while, you can be here by yourself, I guess I'm going to stay a little longer, you don't care about me. Take care of yourself. Xiao Ruoshui said to Li Yunmeng.
"Where did the dark iron on your body come from, why haven't I seen you take it out before?" Li Yunmeng asked curiously.
"Before leaving, Jingyuan and I went to investigate the monster that was killed by Brother Murong and Jingyuan. Xiao Ruoshui drank the porridge and said to Li Yunmeng.
"Is it the monster I drew? I don't know if it's like it?" Li Yunmeng shrugged and said to Xiao Ruoshui.
"I don't know if it's like it, I have to show it to Jingyuan to confirm, but according to your skills, it should be very similar. Xiao Ruoshui stretched out a thumb and praised her, meaning great.
"Don't say pretty words, why don't I think my painting skills are very good?" Although Li Yunmeng was happy in her heart, she still pouted and denied it.
"You don't think you can draw anything else, but you definitely look like people, because you're an expert in this area, and remember the last time you painted my portrait by the river, it's very similar. Xiao Ruoshui gulped a bowl of porridge, and then stuck out his tongue at her.
Li Yunmeng burst out laughing, she remembered the last time she drew a portrait of Xiao Ruoshui by the river and beat it with a branch, she couldn't help laughing, she suddenly remembered something. She smiled slightly at Xiao Ruoshui: "Brother Xiao, I want you to do me a favor." ”
"I guess it's not a good thing, but you can say it. Xiao Ruoshui looked at Li Yunmeng and looked at him with a smile, and she was so funny in her heart. Casually agreed.
"Can you help me carve a swallow?" Li Yunmeng said a little shyly to him.
"I thought that what was the matter, I would carve it to you now. Xiao Ruoshui found a good pine wood from the firewood pile next to him, and with a hard hand, he slowly cut the pine wood into a rough shape, and then took out a carving knife from the backpack, and slowly carved it, and after a while, the swallow that has been lifelike appeared in his hand, he took out a coarse cloth, slowly polished it, polished the burrs and non-smooth places on it cleanly, and finally carefully brushed a layer with tung oil. Then he put it on the table and said to Li Yunmeng: "It's okay to do it, I'll go to the Dustless Hall first." ”
Li Yunmeng was ecstatic, looked at Yanzi intently, and ignored Xiao Ruoshui.
"What's so rare about a wooden swallow, you want me to carve it for you every day. Xiao Ruoshui couldn't help but laugh when she looked at her obsessive appearance, and said casually.
"Really, then you carve it for me every day. Li Yunmeng turned around, looked at Xiao Ruoshui, and said happily.
Xiao Ruoshui opened his mouth wide and looked at her, and suddenly he remembered another girl's voice in his mind: "Brother Xiao, will you carve a wooden kite for me every day?"
"Yes, I will carve it for you every day. ”
Xiao Ruoshui's hand involuntarily touched the cloth bag, the wooden kite had not been carved for a long time, and it was not finished yet, he sighed, turned around, lowered his head and slowly walked towards the dustless hall, without saying a word.
It is the most difficult to bear the grace of beauty, which can be exchanged for love forever. Xiao Ruoshui walked a little woodenly towards the dustless hall. Li Yunmeng sat at the table and looked at Yanzi, holding her cheeks and falling into deep thought, but there was clearly a happy longing on her face. (To be continued......)
