Go Home - Chapter 227
Saying that there was a large box, Zhang Heihu really brought a large box. Before opening the lid, the dark fragrance filled the room. Xiao Lan frowned slightly, and Lu Zhui said, “It’s okay, it’s for smoking books.”
“Really it is an antique?” Xiao Lan asked.
“Yes, yes, it is true.” Before Lu Zhui could answer, Zhang Heihu nodded repeatedly, fearing that the two would not believe it, and both said, “I dug it out by myself. I thought it was worthless. Seeing that everything recorded in it was all immortal prescriptions, I left them.”
It’s not surprising that the disciples in Mingyue’s tomb can read ancient characters, but Xiao Lan still has doubts in his heart. These silk books have been buried in the ground for hundreds of years. How can they be immortal? Think of the bat’s soul-piercing method, even if it was sealed in the airtight tomb tunnel, it was still broken to pieces at the touch of it, not to mention it was packed in a box and bumped hundreds of miles along the way. .
“I’ve been soaked in medicinal water, and it’s not ordinary silk, with celestial silk added.” Lu Chai put on silver silk gloves and pulled out a book from it. “It is indeed a technology that only existed in that era.”
Xiao Lan understood, and said, “Move down the mountain for you. It’s cold and dirty here, don’t stay.”
Lu Zhui agreed, called the boy in the courtyard, and said to him: “You take this token and go to the mountain to find the Ma County magistrate. I said that I took a bandit den and asked him to bring troops to pick it up.”
The boy agreed, turned and ran down the mountain. When the magistrate heard that Lu was chasing the bandits, he thought someone was making trouble at first, but after seeing the token, he was really panicked, and there was no time to ask more, so he rode a car and drove people into the mountains.
A group of idlers were naturally not the opponents of the soldiers and Xiao Lan. Even though they didn’t know what had happened, they were rushed to the courtyard and put on wooden shackles. Lu Chase down did not hold the magistrate accountable either-after all, this group of thieves did not go down the mountain to rob. They only arrested a foreigner every few times. It was indeed not easy to be noticed, so pay more attention in the future. The silver that was found went to the national treasury, and the box of books was moved into the inn by Xiao Lan himself. After careful counting, there were as many as 136 books.
“Is all writing about the art of immortality?” Xiao Lan asked.
Lu Chai nodded: “The methods are different. There are alchemists and meditation, and there are more harmful witchcraft. However, no matter what method, it is only for one purpose in the end, to be able to shine with the sun and live forever in the world.”
Xiao Lan shook his head: “It’s ridiculous.”
Since it appeared in the tomb of Mingyue, written on precious silk and scented wood, ninety-nine percent of them were belonging to the Lu family. Lu Zhui closed the lid of the box and said, “It should be my ancestor who wanted to live forever, so I bothered to search for these alchemy techniques to become immortal, but unfortunately he still failed to get what he wanted.”
“I can figure it out.” Xiao Lan said, “The Lu family was so powerful that there must have been a steady stream of books sent to the Lu Mansion. Perhaps because of this, the bat would get the soul-piercing method by fishing in troubled waters.”
“Probably.” Lu chased him back, but didn’t look away from the box.
“What are you thinking about?” Xiao Lan turned his body around and asked, “What are you going to do with these books?”
“It burned.” Lu Chai replied simply, “It’s not a good thing.”
Xiao Lan smiled: “Okay, I’ll burn it this afternoon.”
“You don’t even ask me why?” Lu Chai poked him in the chest, “Is he immortal.”
“Everything has life. It is good for you and me to live long, but longevity is not necessary.” Xiao Lan hugged him in his arms. “As I said earlier, the deprivation of the lives of others is imposed on him, bloody, and live for a thousand years. It’s not happy either.” Besides, if the news spreads, this box of books will not cause many disputes, and it will definitely be another **** turmoil. It would be better to burn the peace.
Lu Zhui agreed and thought for a while, but then he said happily: “Wait until you are 70, 80, then you and I will become crumpled old men.”
“So?” Xiao Lan cupped his cheeks with both hands, “Even if I can’t walk, I can still hold you in the palm of my hand.”
Lu Chai smiled and punched him: “Glib and tongue.”
In the evening, Xiao Lan set up a fire in the courtyard and burned the box of books clean. Five days later, all the gangsters in Heihu Village had been interrogated, and they were only waiting to be sentenced according to the law. The young man received a letter of recommendation from Lu Zhui and went to Sun Moon Villa to learn martial arts. After the matter was over, the two of them continued to move towards the closed city. The season was full of autumn, and a pair of lovers watched the mountains and rivers along the way to see Danxia, which was really countless fun.
The closed city is close to the royal city. It is naturally one of the most prosperous and splendid. The gates are majestic and magnificent, with red hanging colors on the top to celebrate the harvest. Xiao Lan led Lu to chase off the horse, wondering: “Why don’t you visit the shopkeeper Zhang?”
“Lao Zhang is very enthusiastic. He will definitely refuse to let you and me come out to live. He has to send three or five servants to go shopping. He is not happy to refuse him.” Lu Chai said, “Let’s stay in the inn for one night, and go to Zhang tomorrow. House.”
Xiao Lan shook his head: “I’ve only seen people who complain about the host’s indifference, but you are the opposite. You are afraid that the other party is too enthusiastic, so you would rather stay in an inn.
“If I have only one person, I would naturally wish to live in Zhang Mansion. It is better to be diligent and noisy than lonely and deserted.” Lu Chai took his hand, “but this time it won’t be possible. I still want to be alone with you for a while.”
“Is that so?” Xiao Lan adjusted his clothes with a smile, and said jokingly: “That’s not enough to live for one day. What’s more, let Lao Zhang wait two more days.”
The largest inn in the city is called Jindinglou, with a magnificent name and a magnificent house. Xiao Er smiled and welcomed the two to the room. Fresh tea and snacks were already on the table. Pushing open the window and looking out, it is the most secluded garden in this inn. Red and yellow leaves drift into the lake, shattering a pool of golden sunset. The courtyard is deep, and there are really no envy of mandarin ducks and immortals. The fairy tune.
Lu Zhui said, “It’s a pity that a piano is missing.”
“Running all the way, if you have a piano, you are not allowed to touch it.” Xiao Lan twisted a warm towel, wiped his face clean, and said, “Go and lie down on the soft couch for a while, and I will take you to dinner when I wake up. .”
Lu Zhui sat on the stool with a sincere attitude: “I can still wash my face by myself.” It’s too arrogant and extravagant to find someone to do it for you.
Xiao Lan didn’t answer. He only wiped his fingers dry one by one, then leaned close to his mouth and kissed him before saying, “No.”
These two words were so deep and gentle, Lu Zhui seemed to be scorched by the fire, pulling back the back of his hand vigorously, and his ears were a little hot. Xiao Lan didn’t tease him anymore. After coaxing people to fall asleep, he went out to find out where the restaurant was the best, and where there was fun to watch.
“Eating? Then I have to go to Sanyang Tower. Lamb and noodles are both superb.” Xiaoer said, “If you want to go to Rijinlou for listening to the opera, go to Ruyifang for shopping. If you want to enjoy the scenery, go out of town and go to pants. With the mountain, although the name is a little dirty, the scenery is one of the best.”
“What about buying a piano?” Xiao Lan asked again.
“Qin? It’s also in Ruyifang, Fengqi Piano Shop, but the piano there is valuable.” Xiao Er pointed out, “Crossing three streets, and everybody knows it after inquiring.”
Xiao Lan nodded and thanked, and went all the way to Fengqi Piano Shop, but the boss had already set up most of the doors and was about to pack his things and go home.
“Guest come back tomorrow.” The old shopkeeper said, “I have to go to dinner.”
“I only need a piano.” Xiao Lan said, “I don’t know how to pick and choose the time. The old man just finds the best one for me.”
Hearing what he said so refreshingly, the old shopkeeper shook his head instead: “You go, I won’t sell it.”
Xiao Lan was not angry, but smiled: “Why? I look like a gangster?”
“The bad guys don’t look like, but they don’t look like people who really know the piano.” The old treasurer said, “I make the best violin to sell to the best violinist, not the spunky rich kid.”
“I don’t know the piano, but I am not a prodigal boy.” Xiao Lan explained, “My beloved one is good at playing the piano and singing, I bought the piano to give him.
“My beloved, is the singer in the Red Bridge Tower?” the old shopkeeper asked with his hand.
Xiao Lan shook his head: “Naturally not. He came to visit friends in the city with me today. Seeing that there is water, forest and pavilion in the inn where I live, but no piano, it is inevitable that I feel a little regretful, and I don’t want him to regret it.”
is it? The old shopkeeper raised his eyelids, still hesitating, but Xiao Lan had already stepped forward and removed the door panel for him again.
…
Inside the inn, Lu Zhui was trapped in the soft bedding, unwilling to open his eyes. During the period of blindness, he developed unparalleled ear power, and he was also quite able to find fun from the various sounds of the outside world. For example, a dead leaf is blown down by the wind, a koi makes ripples, the sound of autumn cicadas fades, and the dew flies hard to get in. With the heavy voices alone, there is already a picture of the autumn landscape in the mind. Slowly unfolding, having fun.
Xiao Lan pressed his nose: “What are you laughing at?”
“Where have you been?” Lu Chai held his hand, “Why so long.”
“Hungry?” Xiao Lan pulled him to sit up, “Go, take you to eat the best lamb in the city.”
Lu Chai leaned on him, only responded, but refused to move.
“Don’t go to bed.” Xiao Lan held his hand, “be good, otherwise I should be refreshed at night.”
Lu Zhui continued to lie next to his ear, lazily said, “Um… are you afraid that I will be too energetic at night?”
Xiao Lan pulled the person into his arms: “I’m afraid?”
The arms around his waist were strong and strong, like iron hoops, Lu Chai decisively covered his mouth and changed the subject: “I’m hungry, go to eat.”
Xiao Lan continued to look at him.
…
Lu Chai clasped his fists: “Okay, I’m afraid.” You win.
Xiao Lan smiled and squeezed his chin, and pulled the person out of the bed just around the corner. When I left the inn, the sky was full of stars, but the restaurant was still noisy, and the silver moon disk was reflected in the sky, with wine and meat in front of me, laughter and wind in my ears, strange travelers gathered together for a short and wonderful time to sing. Teach people to indulge in it, until late at night, they reluctantly leave.
“Tired?” Xiao Lan asked.
“I slept too much during the day, and I didn’t feel sleepy.” Lu Chai opened the door of the inn.
“No, I have to take care of your body.” Xiao Lan said, “If you drink it again, you won’t be slightly drunk, but rather drunk, behave.”
“You are not allowed to drink, what do you do now,” Lu Chai put his arms on his shoulders, “you said.”
Xiao Lan took the opportunity to kiss him and hugged him sideways, but instead of returning to his guest room, he went all the way to the backyard.
“Hey hey hey!” Lu Zhui was surprised, and patted his shoulder behind him, “I can’t do it, there are other guests upstairs!” You can see how decent this is by pushing the window.
“Are there other guests?” Xiao Lan put him on the ground and pushed forward two steps. “So what?”
“There are other guests…this…” Lu Zhui looked at Xinqin in front of him, and for a moment he didn’t know how to complete the field.
“What are you thinking about?” Xiao Lan didn’t intend to let him go. He then hugged someone into his arms and ordered, “Say.”
“There are other guests, so I can’t play the piano,” Lu Zhui said calmly, “I have no moral character, I will be beaten.”
Xiao Lan smirked.
“You bought it?” Lu Zhui pressed the strings with his fingertips.
“While you are sleeping.” Xiao Lan said, “The boss thinks that I don’t understand the rhythm, and he refuses to sell me the best violin. He only wants to give me this second one, but it looks good.”
“It’s not bad.” Lu Zhui said, “It’s not as good as the one at home, but it’s not much worse. I’m bothered.”
“You are so polite with me?” Xiao Lan held his hands.
“I can’t be accustomed to you, I can’t be arrogant and domineering, and take all this for granted.” Lu Zhui shook his fingers, with stars in his eyes, “Thank you.”
“Thank me for just talking with my mouth?” Xiao Lan touched his forehead.
Lu Chai closed his eyes.
In the next moment, there will be soft lips close up.
The mandarin ducks cross their necks in the pool, and the grass insects croak low.
The whole garden is full of spring love, full of bright moonlight.
