MTL - I Have Unparalleled Comprehension-Chapter 25 blacksmith shop
Chapter 25 Blacksmith Shop
The paper crane flew up from the palm of Liu Xu, flapped its wings, and flew up and down around Liu Xu.
Surrounded by paper cranes, catkins dressed in white are like immortals in the sky, and the dusty temperament is infinitely magnified.
Especially the white gauze on the face, the mystery is getting stronger.
The paper crane flew for a while, then landed on Liu Xu's palm again.
Liu Xu tapped the paper crane's head with her white index finger, and said with a smile, "Go, little guy, look for clues."
Paper-tying Tips—Paper Crane Tracking.
This is the secret technique from "Paper Tie Tips", but it's not exactly.
The search for the paper crane is guided by energy, while the catkins use the divine essence as the brush, and the awe-inspiring spirit as the guide.
This is where Liu Xu is different from scholars.
She is a scholar, but after reading "Paper-tying Tips", she realized strange things.
Like paper crane tracking, this should be the unique skill of the paper maker, but she can use it in another way.
In fact, catkins can't use all the things in "Paper-tying Tips", what can be used is only changed by her magic.
Some things cannot be changed by magic, and she can't use them either.
For example, she couldn't use Shenyuan to make the simplest paper figurine.
But just for these, she is already much better than ordinary scholars.
After Zhihe left, Liu Xu didn't sit still.
She took out another piece of paper from the cabinet and laid it flat on the table.
The writing brush was lifted by her and hung on the paper, but it didn't come down for a long time.
The star-like eyes were closed tightly, and after about two breaths, the brush finally moved.
During the whole process, Liu Xu kept his eyes closed and allowed himself to hold the pen to write and draw on the paper.
She didn't write, what was outlined on the paper were thin lines.
From a distance, it looks more like a map.
After a while, Liu Xu stopped.
She put the brush aside, and there were already many thin lines on the paper.
"I found it." Without thinking too much, Liu Xu picked up the piece of paper and pushed open the door.
Outside the house, a few maids were watering the flowers outside the house, but the door was suddenly pushed open, which startled them.
There was a servant girl showing a puzzled expression.
At this time, isn't Second Miss staying in the house, why did she suddenly run out.
The servant girl just thought about it and was ready to step forward.
Liu Xu made a gesture to tell the maid to stop, and said, "I want to go for a walk."
After speaking, she took the blank paper and left with long legs.
While the white gauze danced, Liu Xu had already left the door, leaving only a few stunned little maids.
…
According to the record on the white paper, Liu Xu hurried all the way, and finally stopped in front of a house.
Looking at the dilapidated plaque, Liu Xu frowned even deeper.
Under the white gauze, the looming red lips bite lightly.
"How could it be a blacksmith shop?"
The dilapidated plaque, as well as the occasional heat waves, and the tinkling sound of knocking, there is no doubt that this is a blacksmith's shop.
There is a pile of ashes on the ground, which is left by the burning of the paper crane, which proves that the end point of the paper crane is here.
Although Liu Xu had doubts in her heart, she still walked in thinking of the guidance of the paper crane.
As soon as I entered the house, the heat wave hit my face.
"Girl, what do you need?" The proprietress in her forties stepped forward with a smile on her face.
Liu Xu came back to her senses, looking at the smiling proprietress, she had a flash of inspiration.
The deceased had a knife wound and a round wound the size of a peanut, which must be a hidden weapon.
The paper crane led her here, then...would anyone have made a hidden weapon here?
Thinking about this, Liu Xu asked: "Is there any weirdo recently, asking you to build something strange?"
She asked abruptly, took out a broken piece of silver, and handed it to the proprietress.
The proprietress took it with a smile on her face, put the broken silver back on her body, shook her head and said: "No, I usually only make farm tools here, and no one makes anything other than farm tools."
"Are you sure?" Liu Xu asked again.
The proprietress thought about it again, and said: "Girl, we have been making farm tools all the time. If someone suddenly wants to make other things, it must be very impressive. We are absolutely sure of this."
Liu Xu fell into deep thought.
While Liu Xu was meditating, the proprietress put one hand behind her and clenched it into a fist.
After a while, the proprietress saw that Liu Xu was still standing in the room, and couldn't help asking, "Girl, do you need something?"
Liu Xu came to her senses and said no need.
It's weird, it's obvious that the paper crane search is here, why is there no clue?
What the proprietress said just now is also correct. If someone digs something other than farm tools, they will definitely find something.
Then why not?
Liu Xu felt a little headache and planned to leave first.
After leaving the blacksmith shop, she went straight to Liu's mansion.
She saw that it was getting late now, so she went back and sorted out her thoughts.
…
After Liu Xu left, a person walked out of the house.
He has a strong figure and holds a hammer in his hand. This is the blacksmith in the blacksmith shop and the husband of the proprietress.
"Scholar, from Nanhua Road." After the blacksmith came out, he spoke directly with a dull voice.
"Yes, the scholars of Nanhua Road, it seems that the person who used to forge iron beads here is not simple. The latest murder case may be related to him." The proprietress went to the counter and poured a glass of water to drink.
"What do you want to do?" asked the blacksmith.
The room fell silent.
The proprietress put down the cup, and after a while, she spoke slowly.
"The government is still looking for us, and we can't do those business recently. Just relying on the work in your hands, you will make less money. Since this person has a secret, why don't we make a profit."
"Don't capsize the boat in the gutter, if the prediction is correct, there may be more than a dozen lives in the hands of that person." The blacksmith said in a tone of voice.
"The government wants you, so you can't find a newborn baby. If you don't have money, traffickers won't sell you. You need blood to make tricks, and I need flesh and blood to make yin food." The proprietress walked to the corner and tapped on the wall lightly.
There is a hidden compartment behind the wall, and the wall will open as the proprietress knocks.
Inside, there are piles of white bones, which makes people chill.
Judging from the size of the bones, they are all newborn babies.
The proprietress pointed at the bones inside, turned her head and said, "These things can't be bought with money, and the government is keeping a close eye on them. Can they be conjured out of thin air?"
The blacksmith fell into silence. After a long time, he finally choked out a sentence: "Anyway, be careful. Also, don't blackmail that scholar. It's not a trivial matter to anger Qingyun Academy."
"Of course I have my own way, just cooperate with me." The proprietress smiled.
The dark compartment is closed, and the room returns to normal.
…
The next day.
Xu Bai woke up early, looking at the progress bar that had increased by a small amount, his face was full of joy.
Today is another day of joy, especially the rising progress bar, which makes him even more happy.
It would be nice if you could drop the progress bar while sitting.
Xu Bai thought.
"Eat, keep going!"
After thinking for a while, he shook off the unrealistic thoughts.
After simply washing up, Xu Bai opened the door to let the sun shine in.
The sun is shining and the weather is fine.
He was about to lift his foot out the door, but stopped halfway through.
At his feet, there is a letter.
