Chapter 385 Le Lin(1/2)
The next morning, the Tianzun, who had a good night's sleep, woke up early.
After changing his clothes, the Crescent Yaer, who came to comb the hair of the Heavenly Lord on time every day, came to him.
This time, not only was the Crescent Artier coming, but Xiao Sizi also came with him, holding a small tray in his hand, an empty bowl, several medicine bottles, and a brush.
Crescent Ya asked Tianzun with a peach wood comb, "Old man, are you going to pretend to be a scholar today?"
"Yes..." Tianzun almost forgot about this. Today he was going to play with Yutang and the others in the city.
Yueyaer smiled and began to comb the Tianzun's hair, dividing the hair into small strands.
While staying at the mercy of the crescent, Tianzun asked curiously the little Sizi who was holding the bowl and didn't know what potion was being prepared, "Little Sizi, are you getting up so early?"
"Well," Xiao Sizi nodded, picked up the brush, and stirred it in the bowl, "I'm so busy today."
Tianzun tilted his head, "What are you doing? Prepare medicine?"
Xiao Sizi blinked, moved a small stool to the side, stood on the small stool, holding a bowl in one hand and a brush in the other.
Tianzun looked at the little four son standing in front of him, a little puzzled.
After the Crescent Shaer split his hair for the Heavenly Lord, he said to Xiao Sizi, "Okay."
The little Sizi then dipped his brush in the colorless potion in the bowl and applied it to the head of the Heavenly Lord.
"Hey!" Tianzun reached out to protect his hair and asked, "What are you doing?"
The little Sizi tilted his head, "Baibai said you want to dye your hair black."
The Tianzun was slightly stunned and pointed at his nose, "I? I dye my hair black?"
The little fourth son held the head of the Heavenly Lord, "Wait!"
Tianzun looked at the water in Xiao Sizi's bowl curiously, "How can this one turn black without color?"
Xiao Sizi said, "When it is applied to the hair, it will turn black when it is dry."
The Heavenly Lord was even more curious, "When will he come back in vain?"
"This will be removed by itself within one day, and it won't hurt your hair, and you won't need to wash it." Xiao Sizi said, "It'll last for about six hours at most."
The Heavenly Lord thought it was quite interesting, so he sat down obediently and asked Xiao Sizi to dye his hair.
When Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang changed his scholarly robe and came to look for Tianzun, he saw Xiao Sizi washing dishes by the well in the yard.
"Have you dyed it?" Zhan Zhao asked him.
The little Sizi nodded.
At this time, the door in the Tianzun's room opened. Tianzun was wearing a white scholar's robe and a black scholar's hat. He walked into the yard with a swagger, then shook his hair...
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's mouth twitched - that long black hair... all kinds of flowing! Tianzun's hair dyed was only in his twenties, and inexplicably, he felt that he had become a pure and innocent face, which was easy to deceive.
Zhan Zhao looked at it for a long time and nodded to Bai Yutang, "Maybe he will really take the bait?"
Bai Yutang was so amused that he was really better than he thought, but his master was not easy to control and didn't know what he would do in a while. Just don't make trouble.
After the little Sizi washed the dishes, she ran to help his father.
Tianzun followed Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang down the mountain to find Wu Yifu.
When he walked into the yard, the sick scholar was drinking tofu brain. When he looked up, he saw Tianzun walking in with his beautiful black hair. He was shocked and spit out the tofu brain in his mouth with a "snap".
The Heavenly Lord looked at him with disgust.
Wu Yifu looked at Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang while coughing. That's what - what's going on?
"Dye, don't worry." Zhan Zhao reached out and grabbed the Tianzun's hair, touched it, and looked at his fingers, "It's really not fading... Gongsun is really amazing to get this potion."
Tianzun asked, "Can you dye it into another color? Let's try it in a few days."
The maids wiped the table and prepared breakfast for everyone.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang sat down and began to study the plan for a while. After they arrived in Lelin County, they would first talk to the scholars, and then find ways to investigate the case based on the existing clues.
Tianzun was having breakfast, but he thought about it later to go to Lelin County to find out if there were any fun antiques.
Everyone was having a meal. Hou Yin came in and was stunned when he saw the Heavenly Lord at first sight. He looked at Zhan Zhao and said hurriedly, "It's a scatter."
Hou Yin breathed a sigh of relief, sat down, and said to Wu Yifu, "You can go to Lelin later?"
"Yes." Wu Yihuao nodded.
"Here's a repair for me." Yin Hou took out something and handed it to Wu Yifu.
Wu Yifu took it and saw a small brocade box. He opened it and looked at it. There was an exquisite bronze mirror in the brocade box. It was a dressing mirror for women's households. It was made of copper, carved, and decorated with red garnet, which looked simple and elegant.
There were two garnets in the brocade box, and there was a place on the mirror that had two holes empty. It seemed that the garnet fell down.
Zhan Zhao naturally knew that this dressing mirror was always placed on his grandmother's dressing table. His grandfather sometimes held it in his hand. Maybe it took a long time, so the garnet fell off.
Wu Yifu carefully put the brocade box in hand, and Yin Hou went out.
Bai Yutang was a little curious and asked Zhan Zhao, "Want to take the mirror to Lelin County to repair?"
Zhan Zhao blinked and looked at Wu Yifu.
Wu Yifa said, "This mirror was bought in an old workshop in Lelin. Lelin produces a lot of bronze ware. The shop has been around for more than 100 years and has passed down from generation to generation. The mirrors made are unique and better than any other one, so..."
Tianzun drank the porridge and said "Tsk tsk" twice, "That old ghost is so picky, especially his wife's things. Last time he broke a flute, he even went to Yunnan to practice."
Wu Yihua nodded aside and agreed.
After breakfast, everyone set out early and rushed to Lelin County.
Lelin was still quite far away, and the four of them did not ride horses and used their light skills to speed up their journey. They entered the county town at noon. As soon as they entered the city gate, Zhan Zhao pulled Bai Yutang's sleeve and said, "Let's go, eat, I'll starve to death!"
The Heavenly Lord also pulled Bai Yutang's sleeve, "I'm going to starve to death as my teacher!"
Wu Yihua pointed to a tall restaurant in front of him and said, "The food in that restaurant over there is very good."
Everyone walked towards the restaurant and observed the situation in the county town.
Bai Yutang looked around and said, "It's quite clean, but it seems that there are not many people."
Wu Yihuao nodded, "Well, the population of Lelin County is not large, and the people here do not work in farming and do not go out. Most of them are craftsmen."
"Craftsman?" Tianzun was curious.
"Most of them make bronze ware, glazed, carvings, jewelry... etc. There are also many literati, and they take out fans and copybooks every year." Zhan Zhao said, "So many people never go out all day long, but most of them live a wealthy life and are a very gentle county."
Bai Yutang nodded and frowned, "Then aren't this county full of scholars?"
As they spoke, everyone looked around. Indeed, the pedestrians coming and going, the people entering and leaving the nearby teahouses and shops... were mostly scholars dressed in gentle and gentle, wearing the hat of Wensheng.
Zhan Zhao hugged his arm, "It really feels like a plaque will hit three scholars."
"So." Wu Yifa smiled slightly, "It's strange to lose a scholar a year elsewhere, but in Lelin County, the nature of losing a scholar a year is no different from losing a person a year. It can be seen that the point may not be on the scholar, but on those who have lost it."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both nodded, and Bai Yutang also grabbed the Tianzun who had begun to walk aside from the direction and said, "Where are you going?"
Tianzun pointed at a distance, "Yutang, look, it's selling dolls over there!"
Zhan Zhao was shocked and his hair almost stood up, "Where? You actually sell your children?"
Bai Yutang looked over the direction of the finger of the Heavenly Lord and saw a small shop in an alley with many dolls about half a person tall placed at the door. They didn’t know whether they were wood carvings or made of things. In addition to the different sizes, their skin color was vivid and they all have all styles. Bai Yutang glanced casually and saw Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, which seemed to be Zhuge Liang.
Zhan Zhao Wangtian - It turns out that he is a doll seller.
"I almost forgot." Wu Yifa said, "Many families in Lelin make wood carvings and porcelain. Later, some craftsmen specializing in wood carving dolls have gradually emerged. The craftsmanship is getting higher, and many people from other places will buy them. They are mainly divided into two types, one is wood carving doll and the other is porcelain doll, each with its own advantages."
The Heavenly Lord was going to see it, but Bai Yutang was afraid of wasting time, so he dragged him into the restaurant.
Zhan Zhao had also been to Lelin County before and was curious, "I don't remember anyone selling dolls before..."
Wu Yifa said, "Some are there, but you were still young when you came to Lelin. The palace master specially instructed that no one is allowed to take you to see the doll, let alone buy the doll for you."
Zhan Zhao was stunned, "Why?"
"I know!" Tianzun clapped his hands, "That old ghost is the same as Yutang!"
Zhan Zhao was shocked and looked at Bai Yutang, "What's wrong with it?"
"Doll phobia!" said Tianzun seriously, "or, childlike deficiency!"
Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang up and down, "Does phobia?"
Bai Yutang laughed dryly and asked, "Don't you think that thing is disgusting?"
Zhan Zhao couldn't react a little, "The baby...disgusting? That shouldn't be said to be cute..."
"He said that he was disgusting when he was three and a half years old!" Tianzun said resentfully, "I see that children liked them all, so I bought one for him, but he said he didn't like it, and buried it! He bought it for him a little while and said he didn't like it, so he continued to bury it... When he was old enough to be verbally polite, he became more disgusted, and he didn't have any childlike fun... a dead child!"
Zhan Zhao patted Tianzun's shoulder speechlessly to show comfort.
Everyone came to the second floor of the restaurant and asked for a seat by the window. While eating, Zhan Zhao asked Bai Yutang, "Where are those dolls disgusting?"
Bai Yutang said indifferently, "That thing is not alive, it cannot be breathable, cannot speak or move. The more it is like a human being... in fact, it is like a corpse. It is exactly like a human being. It is like a complete corpse that will not rot."
"Uh..." Zhan Zhao felt that his outlook on life was suddenly subverted. He chewed the food with chopsticks and thought carefully for a long time, but in the end he still didn't expect how to refute it, as if it was not unreasonable.
"And that thing's eyes have not been closed." Bai Yutang made another knife, "Every day, a corpse is wide open and his eyes are staying in the same room with you, what's there to be happy with..."
Before Bai Yutang could finish his words, Zhan Zhao took the chopsticks and kept picking up food into his bowl and then picked up food, and did not forget to instruct, "You must not tell the child if you heard it?"
