Chapter 410: Mending
"You can be considered half a weapon refiner, the top one." Wen Guying affirmed Li Chuan's craftsmanship.
"It's not bad." Li Chuan was modest.
"I thought of it." Wen Guying said.
“What do you think of?” Li Chuan asked.
"Prince Su, the demon spirit designer, brought you out of the capital. Firstly, it may be revenge, and secondly, she may need you to help her repair something." Wen Guying answered, "For example, repairing the demon ruins? She knows that you repaired something. Okay, Tianzhu... Didn’t Prince Su say that thing is a key? Maybe he asked you to mend the gate."
"Maybe he asked me to mend the mountain." Li Chuan said casually. explain.
“It’s not impossible.” Wen Guying said.
"Qingqing, these three realms all depend on me, a craftsman, to sew and mend them?" Li Chuan said this, but in his heart he began to recall the scene of the Katsy Mountain on the mural of the Shenxia Temple.
If you’re not sure, you should take it.
After the three chatted for a while, they went back to Sanyi Hutong to have dinner together.
After dinner, Li Chuan took out a few bamboos from the Bishui Ring. When he was about to ask the steward to find a knife that he had handy, Zhu Qingyun said: "I will chop it into whatever shape you want. "
Li Chuan compared it with his index finger and said: "It's about this wide, a little thinner."
"I'll try it," Zhu Qingyun said, dragging the blue one. The shadow sword was drawn out.
Li Chuan felt dazzled for a while, and then, a pile of bamboo threads of the same thickness appeared in front of him.
Zhu Qingyun asked him: "How is it? Can it be used?"
"Of course it can." Li Chuan picked up some bamboo silk and tried to braid it.
“My swordsmanship has improved a lot.” Wen Guying commented.
Zhu Qingyun said: "I practice swordsmanship every day... When will you help me talk to my master, so that I can concentrate on retreat for a while."
"You and your master tell me "If you want to go to the Four Gods Palace with us, he will definitely agree. When you get to the Four Gods Palace, you can do whatever you want to do." Wen Guying said.
"Forget it," Zhu Qingyun shook his head and rejected me and said, "I'd better stay with Your Majesty, at least listen to her tell her story." She sighed, "Even if you live in the palace, no matter what you do, you will be followed. A bunch of people are really too restrictive. And those concubines..."
"Where did your majesty get the concubines?" Li Chuan couldn't help but ask.
"The late emperor's beauties, some of them are still alive and have no descendants, and their natal families are not willing to take them back to support them, so they have been staying in the palace." Zhu Qingyun said: "Their lives are more boring, so I went If they don't, they will talk to me one by one. Forget it, they always feel that there is something unclean in the palace that is harming them, and they want me to go and see..."
"Is there any?" Li Chuan? ask.
“I didn’t see it anyway.” Zhu Qingyun said.
After Li Chuan completed a corner of the lantern, he suddenly felt that he could add something more. He put the lantern into Zhu Qingyun's hand, stood up and said, "I'll bring some paper over and frame it after I finish it."
"Okay, the compilation is really good." Zhu Qingyun said.
After Li Chuan took out the paper and paste, he found that Jin Rong had also returned.
After learning that Li Chuan was going to make a lotus lantern, Jin Rong said enthusiastically: "Let me draw some lotus flowers."
After saying that, he asked someone to prepare pen and ink. After spreading the paper, I thought for a moment and started drawing. Soon, several fresh lotus flowers appeared on the paper.
After Wen Guying took a look, he took out a bead that exuded a light yellow warm light and said, "This is a refined dragon's eye, which can be used as a wick."
Li Chuan While weaving, he said, "I'm just going to make an ordinary lantern. Is that okay with you?" "It's useless if it's not a wick." Wen Guying sat next to Li Chuan and watched him make a lantern. After watching it for a while, he The suggestion was: "The position of the lamp holder can be carved with a formation."
"No." Li Chuan said.
Wen Guying said: "Then you can try to get into a state?"
Li Chuan put down what he was doing, distributed half of the bamboo slices to Wen Guying and said, "There are plenty of bamboo slices. You can make them up yourself. There are not enough for Miss Zhu to chop some more."
Zhu Qingyun heard what Li Chuan said. , and immediately said: "What kind of bamboo pieces does Brother Wen want?"
So Wen Guying said: "You make it up, I won't quarrel with you."
Li Chuan concentrated on making it up. After a while, after compiling a little bit, the steward brought snacks. After eating snacks, Zhu Qingyun went back. Li Chuan also felt a little tired and planned to continue after getting up tomorrow.
I had a good sleep this time. When I got up in the morning, I saw Gong Er and others looking at the lanterns he had made.
Gong Er asked him: "Brother, did you make this up?"
Li Chuan sat on the chair, continued to make up, and said, "Yes, there seems to be a lantern festival somewhere tonight, and I plan to go there. Go shopping."
"Okay, okay," Gong Er said happily, "Brother, make one for me too."
Li Chuan looked at him and said, "Okay. , I made a small lamp basket for you to carry."
Gong Er said, "Okay, what will the third brother take?"
Li Chuan thought for a while and then said: "Weave a fish?"
He didn't know much. When he talked about lotus lanterns before, he also praised Haikou, but after he started weaving, it became more and more smooth, and he felt that it was still good. You can try other tricks.
Pang San said: "Okay, I'll get the fish lantern."
After editing for a while, Pang San and his husband went out for a walk and had breakfast. After coming back, I felt that the sun was just right, so I moved everything outside and continued knitting while basking in the sun.
Gong Er and Pang San were practicing beside them.
The feel of the hand was getting better and better, and the speed was getting faster and faster. Li Chuan concentrated unconsciously, and the scene in his field of vision changed. He did not come out of his mysterious state and continued to write.
While editing, he suddenly stopped. In a mysterious state, he was obviously weaving better, as if he had already calculated the position of each bamboo thread, and then they fell into place step by step. It's back to normal.
After sighing softly, he took down all the lanterns that had been braided. There is no way, the front is too thick and the back is too fine.
He started to compile again. Fortunately, his speed increased at this time, and he quickly caught up with his previous progress. The bamboo strands fluttered between the fingers, and an exquisite lotus lantern gradually took shape.
Something else gradually appeared in Li Chuan's mind. He unconsciously thought about what Prince Su said again. The speculations of Gong Wuguang and Wen Guying, and the story of the empress relayed by Zhu Qingyun, these information were arranged in his mind, like bamboo threads, all flowing to the correct position.
Li Chuan suddenly stopped again. He looked at the trees and rockery ahead for a while.
Gong Er happened to raise his head at this time and saw Li Chuan's expression, "Brother?"
Li Chuan shook his hand at him, signaling him to be silent.
He felt that he had caught something. He looked down at the mountains of different heights. Finally, there was a winding path that ran through them.
