Although it was a rough wooden box with six sides, Jun Luanjiu took out eight or nine pieces of wood in different shapes, none of which were regular wooden boards. I never expected that this unlocked box could be opened like this. He poured out a small top inside, and Jun Aoyan stepped forward. She was somewhat surprised to pick up the tip of the thing, and with a slight twist, it spun dexterously.
"There are still sounds!"
Qi Huan was a little surprised. Indeed, from the small rotating metal top, there was a "buzz-buzz-" sound. The sound is not loud, but not monotonous. It is a rhythmic and small sound, which is quite pleasant to listen to for a long time. As the speed of its rotation gradually slows down, the sound also changes from high-pitched to deep, the cycle lengthens, and finally stops completely, naturally.
"Oh, that's really interesting." Qi Huan found it interesting, so he took it in his hand and pondered it.
Jun Luanjiu poured another glass of wine and said slowly: "That toy was obtained from a Hu merchant. I knew it was not the iron from my hometown when I saw it. I didn't expect to see it in Jiutian Kingdom. This iron is hard and He has toughness and can penetrate stone three points.”
Although this is indeed an interesting thing, Liu Shenghan's interest does not seem to be in the small top. She looked at the pieces of wood and blocks of wood in front of Jun Luanjiu, pointed at them and asked:
"This box...?"
"Ah, this is a special craft. I learned it from local craftsmen, but they said that this technique came from our hometown... It is not so much a box as a lock. Only a specific order can Open and close, otherwise it is just a pile of broken building blocks. But once fixed together, no matter how fragile the rotten wood is, it will become indestructible and airtight. I deliberately chose a piece of wood that was not very good, and after thinking about it for a long time, I added I did some other tricks before carving it out. It can also be considered a toy. Let Aoyan get this thing and take it with him as a souvenir."
After the meal, the three of them made a tacit understanding and followed the guard to the residence, leaving Jun Aoyan to say a few words to his father. I don’t know how long it will be before we say goodbye. Fortunately, the current situation in Wu State is stable and it has enough strength to deal with external dangers. This is why Jun Aoyan is willing to go on a drunken trip. Besides, such a big capital wouldn't last forever. At least she knew that she could find her father when she returned here.
Bai Ya knew this very well. He was happy for Jun Aoyan, and he couldn't help but think of the reason why he came here. Will Bai Sha be like Jun Luanjiu, who was once in a corner of the vast land of Jiutian Kingdom, just waiting for him to meet by chance?
Probably touched by this thought, he rummaged for a long time before going to bed and took out the candle of the Incense God.
Speaking of which, Jun Aoyan had never dreamed of Jun Luanjiu with this incense candle. He has tried and failed. There is a very bad association - although it is unreasonable, but...
Maybe a living person can’t dream? Only the dead can dream?
It's not like he has never had this idea before, but now it's quiet, everything is silent, and some small sounds can't escape from his head. He remained silent and clenched his fists slightly, forcing himself not to think about it anymore. Forget it, even if you really die, just like Ge Shenguo's mission, you will still have to see the corpse. This is the task Bai Ya gave himself.
Stop thinking about it, stop thinking about it, go to sleep. he said to himself. He didn't want to dream of inexplicable bloody scenes because of his shabby thoughts before going to bed. Not at all.
"What are you thinking about?"
This time, Bai Ya was sitting on the beach.
This should be expected, but it was also a bit unexpected, because the scene here was something he had never been to personally. However, it may be that he made up such a place in his mind based on his experiences. This is a golden beach, like the beautiful tail of an old shark. The sand is sparkling and very fine, without any gravel or shells mixed in.
He sat on the dry part of the beach, and the water just touched the tips of his shoeless toes every time. And Baisha stood in front of him, stepping in the water, and occasionally the warm sea water brushed her ankles.
His father didn't look back, he just put his hands behind his back and looked at the scene in the distance. There are cliffs in the distance and the remains of a huge ship, much like the one they encountered after landing on the island.
"I didn't think anything of it."
"You kid still wants to lie to me." Bai Sha turned his face slightly, but not at an angle where he could just see his face, "You can't hide anything from your father."
"No...it's just that there's no need to say it. It's all trivial."
"It's a small matter?" Bai Sha asked back, "You pulled out the Demon-Sealing Blade, is this a small matter?"
"I would have forgotten it if you didn't tell me." He didn't know why his father in the dream reminded him, "What will happen? To succeed Mr. Shuangyue and become the Six Paths Impermanence?"
"You know it very well, otherwise you wouldn't have put it back together immediately - you didn't want to die."
"Of course, at least not now. I...haven't found you yet."
"You brat, don't use me as a cover."
"I didn't. I didn't tell anyone about this. It seems that Mr. Shuoyue didn't notice it."
"Maybe he discovered it? He is the current scabbard of the Demon-Sealing Blade. He always knows where it is. Most likely because you don't mean it, so I might let you go." Wuyou Love Book Network
"It doesn't matter - I don't want to tell them. Qi Huan's mouth will definitely explode like a firecracker, and Aoyan won't be able to speak, not to mention she is not with us at all. As for Liu Shenghan, if it weren't for her I think it's worth talking about knowing Mr. Shuangyue. But their relationship seems to have been very close, so I know that it is absolutely impossible to tell. Regardless of whether she will tell Mr. Shuangyue, letting her know is not a good thing after all. "
"My silly son is very sober."
The sea breeze blew the white sand's clothes, making them fluttering. Bai Ya felt that his father's clothes looked like he was wearing dragon gauze. Was he dressed like this in the previous dream? He doesn't remember. After all, this is just a dream, and irrelevant information is always pieced together easily.
"I have to be awake...have to stay awake."
"You are already very tired. Even if you take a break once in a while, there is nothing wrong with it, and no one will blame you."
"I can't rest."
"..."
His father's sigh melted into the wind, and Bai Ya wasn't sure if he heard it correctly. He wanted to know even more why in this dream, his father always turned his back to him, never turned around or looked back. He knew that as long as he stood up and walked into the sea, he would see his familiar face in front of him. It was not like he had never seen it before in his dreams. But Bai Ya didn't want to stand up at this moment. He didn't know why - maybe it was because he didn't want to in the dream. Because it's troublesome, because the pants will get wet, because it's unnecessary... who knows why.
"You are actually blaming yourself." His father suddenly said, "It's just that you didn't realize it yourself. For example, you haven't let go of the prince-in-law's matter. You saw the tragic situation when he died, even though it had nothing to do with you."
"Yeah." Bai Ya admitted easily, "I wasn't actually that sad at the time. I would rather say that I was more shocked than sad. But after I found out that he left home for the Queen Mother, I felt... how should I put it, the Queen Mother was to him It really means a lot.”
"Nonsense, he doesn't have a choice. Many men think that they have to have children, and if their wife dies, they can replace them."
"Indeed. But few people think that the children they have never seen will be gone. The wife is the most important thing."
"Yes." Bai Sha shrugged, "Many people hold their children every day and say that their lives are miserable and their children are pitiful, and then they immediately renew their relationship, which makes them so moved. They call it for the sake of their children. It's just a son. , if you were a daughter, your life would be very miserable. Alas, your mother and I actually wished you were a girl..."
Even in his dream, Bai Ya's temple still jumped uncontrollably.
"You've said it ten thousand times..."
"Where is it? It's only a hundred and eighty times." Bai Sha stroked his beard, "My daughter must be like your mother, good-looking and easy to take care of, and eat less. I'm afraid that if you give birth to a son, it will be harder to discipline than me. When I was a child, , it always makes your grandpa angry. But - you brat, you can still worry about it, just follow mom, huh... you just eat too much."
"...an old thing."
"What did you say?"
His father seemed to be turning around to beat him, and he subconsciously lowered his face and covered his head like he did when he was a child. After a pause, there was no response. Bai Ya moved his hands away and found that his father was still facing the sea with his back to him.
"You are really cruel and venomous towards Miss Quan. I thought you were sullen every day. Just like your mother, you have not inherited your father's humor at all. No girl in this life will like you."
"Where did that come from? Do you really think I'm stupid and don't know what she means?" Bai Ya picked up a handful of sand, loosened his hand slightly, and felt it slowly slipping away from his fingers, "She is too young and doesn't understand anything. . I’m afraid there will be no good results from the love between aliens. Just look at Garuda and Kalingbinga... If parents do not handle things well, let their children bear the responsibility, which will naturally lead to big mistakes. "
After hearing what Bai Ya said, the father suddenly stopped talking. He didn't respond, but his body did stiffen. Bai Ya knew that he had said the wrong thing and made his father embarrassed. But he was right. Of course he didn't intend to apologize, but...
"I didn't say anything about you." He thought for a moment, then stuffed his hands into the warm sand, "You... are all very good. It's not easy either. But when will I find you? Aoyan and his father, I think we've settled the grievances, but I haven't even found a single hair on your head. Whether you're dead or alive, the old man can't say for sure."
Bai Sha laughed softly a few times.
"Your father is in your heart."
"Don't clean up these frivolous things."
Bai Ya complained, but his father stopped talking again. The old guy straightened his back and suddenly walked forward. Ahead was the endless blue water, but the white sand showed no hesitation. It wasn't until the sea water reached his waist that Bai Ya became a little anxious.
"where did you go?"
Baisha paused for a while, then continued forward, letting the sea water continue to rise. Bai Ya was anxious. He stood up, but at some point his feet got stuck in the fine sand and he couldn't pull them out. He struggled hard, trying to catch up, but couldn't move forward. Bai Ya felt like the water was getting into his throat, making it difficult to breathe, not his father's. Seeing the seawater drowning his father's gray hair, he stretched out his "arm" and waved. Under the skylight, the sharp iron arm was dazzlingly bright.
Bai Ya suddenly woke up from his dream.
