After Gong Er left, the backyard became quiet.
Wen Guying broke the silence and said: "Come on, brother Li, let me introduce to you this girl Zhu Qingyun. She is an official of Qintian Prison. Recently she found some special stones near Xuanshui Mountain. , the pattern on it was very weird. I searched through the collection of books in Sishen Palace and could not find anything similar. So I thought of Brother Li. My father-in-law happened to be studying Taoism in Sishen Palace. He also went to Xuanshui Mountain. I I brought him here with me.”
After Wen Guying finished explaining the reason for coming here, Zhu Qingyun took the lead in greeting Li Chuan and said, "Hello, Mr. Li, can I ask you some questions about ornamentation?"
Li Chuan said bluntly: "Of course it is possible, but I have only been studying the Pattern Sutra for less than two months, so I may not be able to answer the girl's doubts."
Zhu Qingyun said: "Just try your best."
A gust of wind blew.
Li Chuan said: "Let's talk when we go back to the house."
Wen Guying and Zhu Qingyun followed Li Chuan into the house.
Li Chuan glanced into the kitchen. He was lying on the edge of the iron pot chattering to the third person next to him.
"Third brother, second brother has learned a real skill this time."
"There is a river on Tianju Mountain. You know, the river is full of chalcedony!"
"When we go up the mountain, we don't take the mountain road, but ride on the crane. Your second brother and I have ridden on the crane's chicken before!"
"..."
Li Chuan turned around, thinking that he couldn't use the pot today.
Forget it, we have guests, let’s go out to eat later.
Li Chuan found another chair from the bedroom and asked Wen Guying and Zhu Qingyun to sit down.
After sitting down, Zhu Qingyun took out a few stones and placed them on the table.
Each stone is about the size of a fist, has an irregular shape, is blue-black, has dark or light colors, and has some long and short scratches on the surface.
The texture seems to be burned out of the stone rather than artificially carved, which is very strange.
Zhu Qingyun said: "These are the stones, can you see anything?"
Hearing this, Li Chuan picked up a stone and looked at it carefully. After looking at it for a while, he stood up, walked outside the door, and looked at the sun.
After looking at it for a long time, the stone in front of me was still a stone, without any change.
During this period of time, he gained some experience in repairing the house and repairing the crabs.
First of all, there must be light, either daylight or candlelight. There seems to be certain requirements for the angle, but I am not sure; secondly, it depends on luck. Not everything can show a pattern decomposition state for him to do the puzzle. It is too broken. It may not work if it is ugly, and it may not work if it is too neatly broken. The third thing is to see his own state and whether he can concentrate. This may be the only controllable thing.
He carefully recalled the incident of picking up this book in the river. At that time, a golden light seemed to flash in front of his eyes. He also thought about the golden light coming out of his body in the ruined temple and knocking away the fox. Some power must have entered his body at that time.
When he has the light to concentrate, he can use this power to enter a mysterious state, but he feels that this is a passive force, and he has not yet found a way to use it actively.
I can't cultivate immortality, and I can't understand the inheritance strategy, so I can only be a tinkering craftsman.
So these stones are out of luck.
Li Chuan came to a conclusion, walked back into the room and said, "I didn't see anything, and I couldn't recognize the pattern on it." Zhu Qingyun looked a little disappointed.
Wen Guying said: "Brother Li, can you tell what pattern this is?"
Li Chuan thought for a while and felt that he wanted to express his serious attitude, so he grabbed a few stones together and looked at them. Two of them seemed to be put together. Then he went to the bedroom to find the "Pattern Sutra". After flipping through page after page, I finally found a picture on the last few pages that had a partial similarity of over 56%.
After looking at the picture for a while, I felt dizzy and couldn't figure out what it meant.
Li Chuan felt that he might be the worst inheritor of "The Classic of Patterns". He could not understand the words where there were words, and he didn't know how to read the words where there were no words. If it was his eldest brother, he might have set up a food stall on the street now. If it was his younger brother, he would be very happy to get this book. Maybe he could dismantle it and use the things he couldn't understand. Theorems and formulas can be used to produce a "Complete Annotations of the Pattern Sutra".
He thought about it, put the book on the table, pointed at the page and said, "There seems to be a little similarity in the upper right corner of this picture."
Zhu Qingyun leaned over to take a look, but saw nothing. She asked: "I can't see, I can only see a white light. Can you draw it?"
"I'll give it a try." Li Chuan said.
He picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, and when he was about to draw the pattern, he suddenly felt that his mind went blank. He put down the brush, flipped through the book, and tried to draw again, but it didn't work. It was still blank. Finally, I tried to trace the pattern in the book, but it still didn't work.
There is something stopping him from doing this.
Li Chuan put down his pen and said, "I can't draw it."
Wen Guying understood it well. He explained to Li Chuan: "It's like this. If it could be drawn and written, there wouldn't be so few heirs of the Classic of Patterns."
Li Chuan said to Zhu Qingyun: "I'm sorry, Miss Zhu, for not being able to help."
Zhu Qingyun said: "Master Li is willing to help, so I can't thank you enough."
Just as Li Chuan was about to speak, Wen Guying said, "Brother Li, why don't you and Junior Sister Zhu go to Xuanshui Mountain together? We may do some on-the-spot investigation and you may find something else."
Xuanshui Mountain?
no!
These two unworthy little monsters, Gong Er and Pang San, cost him half of his life. The monsters on the top of Xuanshui Mountain have all been cultivating for who knows how many years, let alone the Black-Horned King. , but it’s on the official “Dai Yao Ji”!
Li Chuan immediately refused and said, "No."
If you don’t understand rejection, you will keep compromising.
Then he slowed down his tone and explained: "Master Wen, it's not that Mr. Li is greedy for life and afraid of death. My parents passed away early, and I am the only son left in the family. I am not married yet. If the Li family lineage is broken here, If so, how can I have the face to meet my ancestors?"
He saw Zhu Qingyun frown slightly.
I don’t really want to offend the official people.
So he added, "Or... is there any way, for example, is there a magic weapon that can transmit images and sounds in real time? In this way, when Miss Zhu is investigating on Xuanshui Mountain, if she needs me, she can use this magic weapon to contact me. I."
After Wen Guying heard Li Chuan's words, he laughed and said, "Brother Li always has so many wonderful ideas!"
"No?" Li Chuan asked.
Wen Guying said: "Yes, there is. The Baoyuan Fire Mirror of the Tianyu Sect's Zhen Sect can indeed do what Brother Li described. If I go to borrow it, I guess I can borrow it, but it is too overkill. ”
