As the old beggar said, this rope is neither gold, nor water, nor wood, nor fire, nor earth, and it does not belong to the five elements.

The vast majority of things in the world belong to the five elements. Every plant, tree, bird, animal, and even wind, cloud and thunder belong to the five elements. It is like saying that this thing is not material if it does not belong to the five elements.

But with the eyesight of the old beggar and Ji Yuan, you can't make a mistake.

Since the calligraphy and painting are tied with this rope, will the calligraphy and painting have something special?

Thinking of this, Ji Yuan picked up the scroll on one side and slowly unfolded it.

However, the content inside disappointed Ji Yuan and the old beggar. It was a map of mountains and rivers, and there was a book on it, "Daxiu Mountains and Rivers", and the name of the artist, which was the name of the old emperor, Chu Ze. It is very likely that there is something supernatural, otherwise the old emperor would be an expert who can't even see through Ji Yuan and the old beggar.

Ji Yuan turned his attention back to the golden string in his hand, and asked the old emperor beside him.

"Your Majesty, where did this golden thread come from?"

Before today, the old emperor would only think that this is just an ordinary thread woven with gold silk, how could he remember anything about the rope, so he had no choice but to look at the old eunuch beside him.

"Gong Shun, do you know?"

In fact, the old eunuch can't remember clearly. There are so many such things in the palace. How could he deliberately remember it? step by step.

"Returning to Your Majesty, there are many golden silk ropes in the palace, and the eunuch who picks goods will fetch some from the manufacturing place every once in a while. This golden threading rope may be made by skilled craftsmen in the manufacturing place."

"Manufacturing place?"

The old beggar narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"Hehe, this rope is by no means man-made, and there is no golden thread on it..."

Speaking of this, the old beggar suddenly thought of something, and turned to the side door jade passage.

"Master Men, borrow your scroll again."

"yes!"

Men Yutong took out the picture scroll from the things in his sleeve, and handed it to the old beggar with both hands, as if he knew what the old beggar was thinking, Ji Yuan also handed over the golden silk rope in his hand.

The old beggar grabbed the golden silk rope, wrapped it gently around the scroll for a few weeks, and then tied it. After the golden rope was tied, the faintly extraordinary aspects of the Xiechi scroll did not disappear, nor did it become so special because of the tie. There is no change in the gold thread, but it just gives Ji Yuan and the old beggar a feeling that it should be.

"So that's how it is. This thread was originally tied with a Xiezhi painting scroll."

Originally, I didn't find anything in Tianzihao's treasure house. People like Ji Yuan and the old beggar would usually leave, but the reason why they didn't leave was mainly because Ji Yuan still had a faint feeling that he couldn't explain clearly.

As soon as he found the golden thread at this moment, the feeling of Ji Yuan disappeared, and he couldn't help but have a kind of understanding, knowing that there was nothing worth looking for.

In fact, the Xiezhi picture scroll itself only has a little extraordinary aura, which is only equivalent to a talisman, which can be sealed more easily. The presence or absence of the golden thread has little effect, but the current situation at least makes Ji Yuan understand that the two are the same. out a source.

As for the gold thread, it doesn't look like a magic weapon at all, it's just a special material, it's more like the person who painted it back then used it for painting.

Ji Yuan pulled away the golden rope again, and returned the Xiezhi scroll to Men Yutong, and then said to the old emperor.

"Your Majesty, can we take this golden rope?"

Even though he knew that the golden silk rope must be extraordinary, the old emperor knew better that it was useless for him to use it, and it was an important favor for Ji Yuan and the old beggar, so of course he would not have any objections, so he quickly responded.

"I have already said something beforehand. Whatever the two immortal elders like, just take it away. Naturally, this thing is the same. It's just a golden rope."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ji Yuan bowed his hands to the old emperor, although it was only shallow, but it was the first time to salute to the old emperor, which made the latter, who had been the emperor for a long time, feel a little excited.

"Immortal Elder, you are polite. By the way, I have already ordered the imperial dining room to prepare a dinner. Why don't the two Immortal Elders stay and have dinner together? National Teacher, don't you think so?"

Men Yutong also hurriedly said.

"That's right, why don't the two immortal elders just eat in the palace?"

"hehe……"

Ji Yuan smiled.

"You two don't need to be nervous, I won't leave yet, but the meal in the palace will be waived. Ji promised to cook a meal for the children of Qiao's family in return for the two old hens."

The old beggar put his hand into the collar and scratched the itch on his back without any image, but also refused.

"Hey, Mr. Ji is going to cook. How can my old beggar not try it. Mr. Ji, what are you waiting for, let's go, or it will be dark."

A lot of things happened today, it was already afternoon, although it was still early in the evening, the old beggar was really curious about Ji Yuan's craftsmanship.

Ji Yuan and the old beggar left without the consent of the old emperor, the national teacher and others. The old emperor opened his mouth, but in the end he still didn't say whether they could go together.

Ji Yuan and the old beggar had already left, Qiao Yong who was beside the emperor hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Uh, Your Majesty, the criminal, should the criminal go back?"

The old emperor was taken aback when he heard the words, and looked at Qiao Yong.

"Qiao Aiqing, are you still here? Hurry up and go back, and remember to treat the two elders well for me. By the way, the imperial dining room will send you any ingredients you want! Don't be dazed, don't let the guests wait for the master, hurry up go!"

"Yes, yes, the guilty minister has received the order, and the minister will go right away!"

Qiao Yong apologized, and hurried away. The old emperor and others also left the imperial study room at the same time, but they saw Qiao Yong leaving quickly, but Ji Yuan and the old beggar could not be seen.

"National teacher, what do you think I should do?"

Standing outside the imperial study room, the old emperor frowned slightly, watching Qiao Yong's leaving back, and asked Men Yutong beside him.

"Your Majesty has a measure of advance and retreat, and responds appropriately. No one can do better than Your Majesty."

After thinking for a while, Men Yutong said again.

"Your Majesty, I will take my leave first."

"The national teacher won't stay for dinner?"

Men Yutong sighed, and held up the Xiezhi scroll in his hand.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what secrets are involved in this painting. I am not good enough to carry this secret. I can't keep it, let alone dare to keep it. I'd better hand it over to the two immortal elders."

Before Ji Yuan and the old beggar cast spells at the celestial master, Men Yutong was actually a little worried that the two masters would take the scroll directly, but Xian Xiuzong would not do such a thing, so he returned it to him afterwards , just told him to remember to keep it safe.

But at this moment, Men Yutong thought it was wrong. He felt that he didn't dare to keep the painting, so he thought of handing it over to two masters. Perhaps those two masters had expected it , I didn't say it before.

"By the way, Your Majesty, the two immortal elders also said one thing before, on the side of Pozi Mountain in Bianrong Mansion..."

...

When Ji Yuan was cooking at Qiao's house in person, the immortal master and the eunuch delivering the decree had already set off, and happened to have a face-to-face meeting with the person who was sent to report by Bianrong Mansion.

Before the food was ready, Yutong, a national teacher, came to Qiao's residence and left a Xiezhi picture scroll very solemnly. Ji Yuan didn't come out in the kitchen, and the old beggar went to the front yard to accept it.

Ji Yuan cooks. In addition to making dishes from Jizhou, he also tried to restore the fish that was cooked on the Xuanxinfu flying boat. Although there is no second Guishui golden scale fish, there are jujube honey and Ji Yuan's cooking methods , even an ordinary grass carp is cooked extremely well, and even the small thorns in it are melted away, making it more convenient for children to eat, and the taste is natural, needless to say.

During the period, Ji Yuan generously took out one of the thousand bucket pots and poured wine for everyone. Although it was the white thousand bucket pot, the wine in it was also very beneficial to people, and the aura contained in it was easier to drink. people absorb.

In the dead of night, it was still in the small courtyard of the guest house, Ji Yuan was holding a gold thread in his hand, and the old beggar was holding a Xiezhi scroll in his hand, and they were sitting opposite each other at the stone table in the courtyard.

"Mr. Ji, it's better for you to keep this Xiezhi scroll. The old beggar only hopes that you can tell me about the deep meaning of this painting."

The old beggar pushed the scroll to Ji Yuan, and the latter unfolded it on the table. Without spiritual energy and mana, it looked like an ordinary painting, except that the things on it were more vicious and strange.

"Mr. Lu, it's not that Ji doesn't want to talk about it, it's just that Ji doesn't know the meaning of this painting. As for Xiezhi, Jinwu and Bi Fang, I feel that I have a lot to say, but I don't feel like I can say why. Come."

This is the big truth of Ji Yuan. After all, he didn't specialize in studying this in his previous life. He has impressions and can tell some, but it can't be very detailed. However, it is inevitable for him to understand different things when he hears this. Meaning.

"Okay, it seems that it is suitable to talk more, the old beggar is going to rest first, and the husband should go to bed early."

The old beggar didn't force it, he stood up and patted his butt, then turned around and entered the opposite guest room.

Although I don't know much today, there is a vague feeling of facing the secrets of the ancient times. Even for people like the old beggar, when I think about it now, the shock in my heart is still undiminished.

This kind of thinking and knowing must be an extremely great secret, and it is normal for Ji Yuan not to want to say more.

When the door was closing, the old beggar looked at Ji Yuan in front of the stone table in the courtyard through the slowly closing door. Under the moonlight, Ji Yuan in his blue shirt seemed to be coated with a layer of light. He was holding a golden thread, looking at Looking at the picture scroll on the table, he fell into deep thought.

'The longer we know each other, the more I can't understand you, Ji Yuan, who are you? '

However, even if the origin of Ji Yuan is unknown, people like the old beggar, who can understand their nature and understand the sympathy between heaven and man, are very trustworthy in Ji Yuan's character, knowing that this person's path must be upright.
