Lin Yan's tone was very natural, just like any guest who has just arrived and is curious about the picturesque scenery.
But the problem is that Jiang Fan is guarding against her now, and Xiaodong is even more afraid of saying the wrong thing, accidentally revealing something that shouldn't be said, and keeps his mouth tighter than a clam shell.
"Oh, that's Shenyunjian in front, and now the waterfalls are frozen, and the scenery here is pretty good in summer."
What is there for Shen Yunjian to ask? Jiang Fan thought and thought but couldn't come up with it. He originally thought that Lin Yan was so enthusiastic because he wanted to inquire about the eldest brother, but after walking outside for a long time in such a cold weather, Lin Yan didn't ask Mo Chen a single word, it seems that he really came here purely for sightseeing Same.
In such a cold day, what's so good about being naked everywhere? The more he couldn't guess her purpose, the more vigilant Jiang Fan became. Anyway, he is famous for being able to speak well, and now he cheered up and took out the whole thing to Lin Yan, bragging without borders, but in fact he didn't have a single word of truth, even Xiaodong felt that the senior brother It's a bit too much, but it's rare that Lin Yan listened intently from the beginning to the end, without showing any sign of impatience.
The more good-tempered and patient she is, the more people feel that her purpose is not pure.
It wasn't until it was getting late that the two senior brothers got rid of this trouble. Xiaodong held back for a whole afternoon, and finally dared to speak: "Senior Brother, Senior Sister Lin Yan has turned our mountain around, ask It's all about the terrain... What is she trying to do?"
Jiang Fan also had no idea: "I don't know either."
Since she is a guest, I can't ignore her.
"Could it be..." Xiaodong stopped talking after a while.
People who say this half-heard are the most depressed, could it be something? You've said it all.
"It's okay, just talk."
Xiaodong leaned closer and whispered, "Could Senior Sister Lin be trying to find out about the formation on our mountain?"
Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment: "Formation?"
He hadn't really thought about it.
This is also because Jiang Fan grew up on the mountain since he was a child, and he has heard his master and other people often mention the formation method since he was a child, and he has long since ignored it. On the contrary, the younger brother had only been up the mountain not long ago, and it was the time when he knew little about everything and became more curious.
For Xiaodong, things like the Five Elements Hexagrams and Qimen formations only exist in legends. If he hadn't personally experienced the curiosity of the formations on the mountain, it would be hard for him to believe that he is living now. There is such a mysterious thing as a formation in this place. Don't look at the people on the mountain who come in and out without feeling it, but the people outside can't get in at all if they don't have someone to guide the way. This formation is very mysterious, tigers, wolves, animals, snakes, insects, rats and ants are all isolated, let alone others, even Xiaodong wants to find out the clues.
Today I wandered around with that Senior Sister Lin for quite a long time, Xiaodong was free when the senior brother was talking, and just paid attention to Senior Sister Lin's words and deeds without any trace. Senior Sister Lin inquired about the terrain and scenery around the mountain, while listening carefully to what Senior Brother Jiang said, she carefully observed everything around her. Xiaodong himself has never forgotten the match, so he naturally associates Senior Sister Lin's behavior with this.
Jiang Fan shook his head: "Probably not."
"Why?"
"Actually, these formations have long been lost. Even the master doesn't know it. If she could learn it after just looking at it and asking questions, then the learning of formations would not be the same as forging techniques and alchemy techniques back then. Wait a minute and call it the Five Great Thaumaturgies."
This is also true, if you can learn the lost secrets by just looking at them, that would be incredible.
Xiaodong's train of thought was taken astray again: "Brother, why did the formation disappear?"
There are still several other unique skills, such as forging and alchemy, which are still known by some people, but the knowledge of formation has not been passed down to many people. Is this knowledge particularly difficult? Or is there some other reason
"Oh, this..." Jiang Fan said, "Because the world is not peaceful, everyone who knows this thaumaturgy will die."
all dead...
Brother Jiang said it so easily.
To be able to master such a thaumaturgy, there should be more ways to save one's life than ordinary people. What kind of accident happened to make these people die together? It's frightening to think about.
"Okay, drink more hot soup to warm up at night, go back to rest early, you have been freezing outside for a long time, right?" Jiang Fan thought about it, still a little worried: "Why don't you arrive at night?" Let me huddle in the room? Two people are warmer than you alone."
"It's okay, senior brother, I'm not so afraid of the cold now."
What Xiaodong said was the truth, but with his small nose and red cheeks that were blown red by the wind, these words were not convincing at all.
Jiang Fan was worried about him being alone, firstly, he was afraid that the junior brother would have a fever like last time, and secondly, now that there were outsiders on the mountain, it might not be appropriate for the younger junior brother to live alone. He insisted on letting Xiaodong change places, so Xiaodong had no choice but to obey his senior brother's orders.
But he really didn't want to change it.
He also wondered if he could dream of Lunjian Peak again tonight, what if he changed places and didn't sleep as comfortably as in his own room, what if he couldn't dream
Huh
Thinking of this, Xiaodong was startled suddenly.
in my own room...
It was just so natural to think so.
Obviously he didn't regard it as his own house before, he always felt that he was living in someone else's place, and he was always uneasy. But now he felt that it was his own house so naturally.
When did it start
It seems that it started after the last fever. At that time, the brothers and sisters took turns to look after him, and there was no one in the house. Although Xiaodong didn't open his eyes, he knew it in his heart. Especially the elder brother, who took care of him so meticulously and persuaded him so much.
Since then, he has never treated himself as a guest.
Brother Jiang doesn't like to tidy up very much, and the room looks a little messy. A few pairs of dirty shoes were thrown randomly in the corner of the house, probably because it was cold and the handymen were lazy, so they didn't wash and dry them in time.
Jiang Fan wasn't embarrassed at all, he could do whatever he wanted when he slept at night, and if he didn't sleep, it would still be a night of meditation. But my junior brother can't just let it go like this. Jiang Fan took out the thickest quilt from the cabinet and covered him with it. Xiaodong neatly folded the clothes he had taken off and put them aside, then lifted the quilt and quickly got in, moving nimbly like a monkey, Jiang Fan looked at him and wanted to laugh.
But the little junior brother sleeps quite honestly, after lying down, he closes his eyes and doesn't move.
How did Jiang Fan know that Xiaodong was racing against time to fall asleep early, so the possibility of dreaming of Lunjian Peak increased by one point.
Jiang Fan turned off the lights and fell asleep beside him. He usually slept well, but now he had something on his mind. He turned over a few times and still didn't fall asleep. He was thinking about the day's affairs.
Senior Liu's character is convincing, but the three nephews who stick to him are hard to say. They must have something in mind, Jiang Fan now hated himself for being stupid and not thinking enough. It would be great if the senior brother is here, the senior brother will definitely be able to see what is going on, and he can control the overall situation. As long as he is there, the junior brothers and sisters below will have the backbone.
Xiaodong was already fast asleep, Jiang Fan looked at him again deliberately, tucked him in the quilt, and then lay down again.
Probably thinking about it every day and dreaming at night. It may also be that Xiaodong's luck today really made his wish come true, and he came to Lunjian Peak again in his dream.
The master and senior Liu were talking in the distance, and the senior brother was standing by the cliff alone, looking down at what he was looking at.
Xiaodong poked his head curiously to see that there was a stone in front of the elder brother. But if you don't look carefully, you might think it's a piece of solid ice. Xiaodong had seen this kind of translucent stone before, and it was not worth much. People often called it quartz.
Brother, if you don't go to see the master and the others discuss swords, what are you doing here pondering on stones
Senior brother looked at the stone, Xiaodong looked at him.
Eldest brother spent the night at Lunjian Peak, and he didn't look haggard, which reassured Xiaodong a lot. Probably capable people can live well no matter where they are, Xiaodong judges others by himself, always fearing that his master and elder brother will suffer hardships.
The big brother cut off that piece of stone, not all of that big piece of stone is transparent, only the size of a palm in the middle is about the size of a square. The eldest brother cut out this part alone, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully for a while, and then put it aside again.
Xiaodong was extremely curious, wondering what the big brother was doing with such a stone, it was cold and heavy, it was quite in the way, and he didn't see any use for it.
Master and Senior Liu are competing with swords.
It was said to be a sword competition, but it didn't look like a serious competition at all.
The master held the scabbard of the big brother's saber in his hand, and Senior Liu simply put his five fingers together to replace the sword with his palm. After two moves, the two stopped to talk for a while, and it didn't look like they were serious about fighting.
The master raised his voice a little, and called the elder brother: "Chen'er, come here."
The elder brother walked over, and the master said, "Come on, you use the trick I just did."
The master used the move of Senior Liu, while the senior brother drew a sword formula, using the move that the master and Senior Liu had just dealt with.
The master's scabbard spun sideways, and with a movement that Xiaodong couldn't see clearly, it touched the elder brother's neck.
Seeing that Xiaodong almost cried out.
But the master is only holding the scabbard in his hand, of course he will not really want to hurt the elder brother.
"No, no, that's not the case. Come again."
The master shook his head all the way, and he and the senior brother kept repeating this gesture. The master kept using this move, and the senior brother kept repeating the process of parrying.
The big brother's response was different from the previous one. After the fourth and fifth rounds of the trial, the senior brother slanted his shoulders to block back, the blade of the sword peeled off the scabbard, and the metal collided with each other, making a crisp sound.
The master was happy: "Haha, that's right, it can be blocked."
Senior Liu just shook his head: "But you have already lost this trick just now."
The master actually played tricks: "That doesn't count, I didn't fight you seriously just now." (To be continued)
