Lanke Chess Edge

Ji Yuan looked up at the sunlight in the sky, and then at Zao Niang, who had been saluting all the time. Although the grass and tree elves could hardly survive in the sun for a while and were easily burned by the power of the sun, the jujube tree It belongs to a special spiritual root, and the small pavilion in Ju'an is also special, so Zao Niang didn't feel any discomfort when facing the sun.

At this moment, the little paper cranes and a group of small characters in the main house also flew out, circling around Zao Niang curiously and joyfully, Zao Niang raised her arms, and the little paper cranes landed on her arms, raised her head and looked at the Zao Niang, even though the jujube tree initially condensed the elves, it didn't make the little paper crane feel strange, and Ji Yuan felt the same about this.

The group of small characters is naturally the most lively, chatting non-stop around Zao Niang.

"The jujube tree has finally turned into a human being." "That's not enough."

"At least I can talk." "Yes, I can talk!"

"Why is the jujube tree female?"

"Nonsense, if she can bear fruit, can she still be a man?"

"It seems to make sense." "Fart, didn't you know whether the jujube tree is a man or a woman before you listen to the old man?"

"That's right, you guys can understand better than the old man?"

...

These small characters revolved around Zao Niang and Zao Shu, and from time to time there was ink light flashing, and Ying Ruoli on the side was also amazed to see it. She knew that there were such strange spirits around Ji Yuan, but the little paper crane had seen them before. It has been many times, but this is the first time I have seen the small characters with my own eyes.

"Zaoniang is an elf at the beginning, and she is also a girl. There must be many things she doesn't understand. Ruoli, take advantage of you to teach her these few days. I will go out and bring some books back."

"Yes, Uncle Ji, please rest assured." "Master, please rest assured!"

After Ji Yuan nodded, he went straight to the gate of the courtyard, left Ju'an Xiaoge and walked out. After all, Zao Niang had initially gathered the body of an elf. What is unknown, and the book he said to buy is naturally prepared for Zao Niang.

Compared with the excitement of the small characters, Zao Niang, who is the happiest both in theory and in practice, is more reserved, but she naturally has a feeling of doting on the little paper cranes and the small characters, and even cooperates with the small characters in the discussion from time to time Let's go in circles.

Ying Ruoli on the one side felt a sense of intimacy with Zao Niang even though she only knew about Da Zao Shu.

"Okay, okay, Zao Niang, come and sit down. Although you are just a collection of elves now, I can give this to you first."

As she said that, Ying Ruoli blew on the stone table, a gust of misty wind blew by, and a delicate red wooden box appeared on it, she went over to hold Zao Niang's hand, and sat down at the table together, then Opened the wooden box.

There are combs and hairpins in the box, as well as some simple but not simple accessories, all made of gemstones in the sea or rare corals, which look radiant under the sunlight shining through the tree canopy.

The little paper cranes and a group of small characters all surrounded the wooden box at once.

"Hey, is this old valuable?" "Nonsense, they are all gems!"

"Sent by Empress Jiang Shen, of course it is worth money!"

"It's so pretty, I like it all." "Yes!"

The little characters commented, Zao Niang also showed joy, Ying Ruoli smiled and said.

"I don't know what to give you, so I'll give you something I like, Zao Niang, do you like it?"

Zao Niang likes the things in the wooden box and the wooden box itself, not entirely because women like these decorations, but more like the mentality of little paper cranes and small characters.

"I like it, thank you Empress Jiang Shen!"

"Haha, call me Ruoli, don't mention that we hit it off, even in terms of status, you are also the spiritual root of heaven and earth. By the way, if you like this, I will send you a few more cars next time!"

All the chattering little characters around fell silent, and the little paper crane also looked up at Longnu. These little guys seemed to realize for the first time that Longnu was a real local tyrant, and even Zao Niang was stunned for a while.

"Thank you, Empress Ruoli, this box is enough, I don't need so many..."

"Why are you being polite, there are too many to put away anyway!"

...

More than a quarter of an hour later, at a bookstore in Ning'an County, Ji Yuan personally selected suitable books. Naturally, some works by Yin Zhaoxian were indispensable, and some classics and even historical texts could also be selected. In the end, he bought nearly a hundred books. This book, stacked several layers high on the counter of the bookstore, made the shopkeeper's face happy.

There is a saying that paper is expensive and books are more expensive. So many books are not cheap. The shopkeeper of the bookstore has no reason to be unhappy. There are not many shops opening on the first day of the first lunar month. Just by the way.

The last book about musical instruments was put on the counter by Ji Yuan, and the shopkeeper said to Ji Yuan with a smile on his face.

"This guest officer is really a studious person. My Ning'an County is the hometown of Yin Gong and Yin Wenqu. If you come here to buy books, you will definitely get some of Yin Gong's literary spirit. Hehe, guest officer, don't worry, the price must be fair!"

The shopkeeper held the abacus in his hand, and counted on the counter. Ji Yuan didn't mean any excuse for the bookstore shopkeeper treating him as a foreigner.

While Ji Yuan was waiting patiently, he suddenly felt something in his heart. He walked outside the bookstore and glanced at the eastern sky, and could feel dark clouds condensing.

"Boom..."

There was a faint sound of thunder in the distance, and it was a complete winter thunder.

"Shopkeeper, when will the book money be calculated?"

Ji Yuan asked a question outside, but the shopkeeper inside hadn't stopped thinking about it. Seeing that the customer was in a hurry, he hurriedly replied without looking up.

"Immediately, just a few books away."

"Crackling..."

The shopkeeper stopped the abacus, raised his head and smiled at Ji Yuan who was standing at the door.

"Okay, guest officer, the total is two taels and three Wen silver. I'll give you a change, and you can just give two taels of silver."

Ji Yuan walked into the bookstore, directly took out two silver ingots of one tael, and the shopkeeper hurriedly weighed them, and said to Ji Yuan with a smile on his face after confirming that the money was correct.

"Guest officer, there are so many, do you have a car to put them in, or can I send someone to deliver them to the inn or relatives and friends where you are staying?"

Ji Yuan smiled and pointed outside the shop.

"Look, isn't there a car here?"

The shopkeeper took a look, only to find that there was a carriage beside Ji Yuan, he didn't seem to have seen it just now.

"That's good, I'll help the guest officer put the book on the car!"

The shopkeeper of the bookstore and Ji Yuan moved a few times together, then moved all the books to the carriage, and then returned to the shop humming a ditty after watching the carriage leave. The profit from this business can last several days .

On Ji Yuan's side, there is actually no carriage, and there is no such thing as carrying books several times as the shopkeeper thought, but it was just taken into Ji Yuan's sleeve in the blink of an eye.

When Ji Yuan returned home in a hurry, he opened the courtyard door and saw besides Zao Niang and Ying Ruoli, there was also old Long Yinghong. He should have arrived not long ago and was looking at Zao Niang , and the little paper crane and all the small characters have been hidden on the jujube tree.

"Hahahaha, Mr. Ji, long time no see! Back then, I didn't have time to read the Qi Dao Tianshu, which covered the wonderful changes of Yin-Yang and Five Elements."

Seeing Ji Yuan came back, the old dragon laughed and stepped forward a few steps, bowed his hand to salute Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan didn't dare to neglect, and at the same time returned the courtesy.

"It's been a long time since I've seen you. The Book of Heaven has been watching in Yunshan. Mr. Ying can visit it whenever he wants. You came to Ju'an Xiaoge this time, but to call Ruoli back?"

The old dragon shook his head.

"No, this old man is here to invite Mr. Ji out of the mountain, I wonder if Mr. Ji is free?"

Ji Yuan suppressed his smile, first turned around and closed the door of the small pavilion, then walked a few steps closer to the old dragon, and asked in a low voice.

"Dragon Corpse Worm?"

"Not only that!"

As an old friend, it was rare for Lao Long to come to ask him once, and of course Ji Yuan would not refuse, and he also thought that he had some confidence in being able to help, so he nodded immediately.

"Since it is the invitation of the old man, I will help you with all my strength."

"Okay! That being the case, there is no need to delay, let's set off immediately!"

In such a hurry? Ji Yuan was slightly taken aback, but didn't say much, just flicked his sleeves, out of which flew out more than a hundred books, piled up on the stone table, they were the ones bought from the bookstore, and then flew out more than a dozen books, Form a stack individually.

"Zao Niang, I just bought these books. You can relieve boredom and learn the truth of the world after reading them. Here are the ones I often read with me. You can also read them. By the way, are you literate?"

Zao Niang showed joy, stretched out her hand to touch a book, and replied in a gentle voice.

"Back to the Elder Master, Zao Niang often watched the Elder Master write in the courtyard, and also watched Yin Qing teach Hu Yun how to recognize characters, and saw Yaya practice calligraphy here, and she knew the beauty of characters."

When Zao Niang was speaking, a group of small characters had already flown into the "Sword Intent" in the main house, and then the copybooks also flew out by themselves, as if afraid that Ji Yuan would forget them, Ji Yuan raised his sleeves, "Sword Intent" Tie" went into the sleeve by himself, and the little paper crane also flapped its wings and slipped into the kit on Ji Yuan's chest.

"Well, that's good. I have something to go out with Lord Long. Ruo Li must not be able to stay here anymore. I will trouble you to look after the house."

Ji Yuan couldn't help laughing, and gave Zao Niang some more instructions, and the latter saluted slightly.

"yes!"

"Okay, then let's go, Ruoli will go with me and Mr. Ji."

As soon as the old dragon flicked his sleeves, clouds and mist rose in the courtyard of the small pavilion in Ju'an, dragging Ji Yuan and Ying Ruoli together to lift off slowly, without stopping for a moment.

It wasn't until he was a hundred feet above the ground that Ji Yuan suddenly thought of something and asked the old dragon.

"Mr. Ying didn't forget to mention something, did he?"

The old dragon turned his head, first glanced at Ying Ruoli and then at Ji Yuan, grinning.

"What else can I do? Seek fire dates for that co-embroiderer? Heh heh heh heh..."

The old dragon sneered and stopped talking. Both Ji Yuan and Ying Ruoli understood what it meant.
