Li Yi searched in his mind, and he didn't see this guy when he came last time in his memory, so he was very puzzled why this guy was so clear, and the thoughts in his heart were not reflected on his face, Li Yi still pretended to be choosing a carving knife, and at the same time seemed to say casually: "That's right." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The man's eyes lit up when he heard this, but when he saw the two people at the door, his eyes rolled again, and then he said: "By the way, I remember that there is a set of carving knives that is especially suitable for you, you come in and take a look with me." The voice was very loud, and he was not afraid of being heard by others, and at the same time took Li Yi upstairs.
At this time, Li Yi realized that there was actually a small layer on top of this compartment.
to the top. Li Yi found that the space was even more cramped, but it could accommodate more than a dozen people, so the man took out a set of carving knives, and then said to Li Yi: "This set of carving knives was specially sold in our store, and the seller required that the buyer must be surnamed Li, and the last time I came to our store, I had to come with a woman, so I will ask you like that below." ”
Li Yi looked at the box that the guy was holding, although he vaguely thought that he was the person the guy said, but he still couldn't help asking: "Do you have someone else who happens to meet this condition?" ”
"Hehe, of course I'm not afraid, the client has another condition, look at the lock of this box, there is a word in the middle of the lock, you have to add a word in the front and back, and then the same as what the client left, so that it will be sold to you." The guy said with a serious face.
Li Yi had already seen the word on it, it was a Yu character, but he didn't think much about it at first, and after hearing what the guy said, he observed it again.
The guy thought that Li Yi was pondering, and said tentatively: "Why don't we go down with the box, otherwise will the two people below suspect something?" ”
Li Yi nodded, and the two of them came down with a box, and the two people guarding the door did not have too many doubts when they saw this situation.
"Guest officer, you can open the box and see the carving knife inside, this lock is just a false lock, you can tell me when you think of the answer, I will go to the shopkeeper to ask if the answer is correct." The man's voice was low.
Li Yi understood what the guy said, so when he saw the word Yu, he thought of the answer, the owner of this set of carving knives is Mu Yuxuan nine times out of ten, so the answer should be Mu Hexuan.
Li Yi, who thought of the answer, although there were still many things that he hadn't figured out, still quietly told the guy, and the guy casually found an excuse to leave and ask the shopkeeper if it was right, leaving Li Yi alone to look at this set of carving knives.
Li Yi didn't understand what Mu Yuxuan's purpose was, why he went to such great lengths to sell himself a set of carving knives, could it be that there was some mystery in the carving knife? Li Yi carefully examined each carving knife, but the carving knife was very ordinary, and there was nothing unusual about it.
What the hell is going on? Lingering doubts......
In the dead of night, it should be a time to rest, the whole apparatus department is very quiet, in fact, not only at night, even during the day, the apparatus department is generally not very noisy, because although there are many people, most of the craftsmen are used to their own rooms, and there are generally few people who are bored in the yard to talk about the world.
In Li Yi's room, it is unusually neat, but there are many utensils on the table, which was originally almost nothing, but the only thing that is missing is a set of carving knives.
Li Yi, who had withdrawn from cultivation, slowly opened his eyes, in order to improve his strength quickly, Li Yi cultivated his Yuan Force even harder, so now the cultivation time is twice as long as before.
took out the box placed in the room and placed it on the table, it was the box containing the set of carving knives in the utensils shop during the day, the carving knives were quietly placed in the box, the box was divided into two layers, a total of twelve carving knives were placed, Li Yi had carefully checked them all, and there was nothing special at all.
Li Yi, who knew that there must be something weird, was not reconciled, and began to recall the afternoon scene in his mind:
Li Yi carefully examined each carving knife in the hope of finding clues from it, and the two people who came with him didn't see anything special, so they didn't care about all this.
The guy didn't leave for long, and he brought another person, this person Li Yi is also familiar with, it is the shopkeeper of this store, it seems that the consignment person is not small, and he can use such a means.
"Hello, this guest officer, I am the owner of the store, after comparison, the guest officer can buy this set of carving knives, but there are two more requirements."
"Alas, why are you like this, you are still silently chirping when you buy your things, do you think that this Mingde City is just your store? Or do you want to kill someone? I can tell you, I died this heart. ”
Before Li Yi could speak, one of the people who came with Li Yi was very upset when he heard the shopkeeper say this, and his tone was full of warnings, while the other person was still very quiet, as if what happened had nothing to do with him.
Li Yi can also see that these two people, one is responsible for shopping, and the other is responsible for safety, originally he was too lazy to pay attention to these, but at this time, he actually had the intention of speaking to stop it, and Li Yi naturally wanted to make a stand.
Li Yi has an intuition, if he doesn't buy this set of carving knives, he will definitely regret it, although he doesn't know whether Mu Yuxuan is good or bad, but if he is so attentive, he must have some intentions, or it can also be a help for him to escape, even if it is possible to fall into another trap of him, but he is not so stupid, will he jump into it willingly?
"I'm sorry, shopkeeper, I really like this set of carving knives, what do you want, you say." Li Yi did not answer the words of the person who accompanied him, but asked the shopkeeper, and the meaning of the words was also obvious, I was going to buy this set of carving knives.
Seeing Li Yi's statement, the man stopped talking, after all, when he came out, Zhu Minghua told him that everything he bought was voluntary for Li Yi.
Hearing Li Yi's words, the shopkeeper was much more relieved, and said with a smile: "The guest officer thinks too much, and we don't have any harsh conditions. After finishing speaking, he looked at the person who interrupted him just now, and when he saw that there was no response, he continued: "The first requirement is that the person who made this set of carving knives said that if you appreciate his carving knives, you should also appreciate the boxes made for him by his friends, so the carving knives and boxes should be sold together." ”
"Oh?" Li Yi never thought that there was such a requirement, he always thought that the box and the carving knife should be matched, or to buy the carving knife and then send a box, I have never heard that the box has to be bought alone.
The shopkeeper smiled a little embarrassedly, and seemed to feel that this request was a bit unreasonable, but he was entrusted by others to do his duty.
Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't explain too much, Li Yi guessed that maybe the shopkeeper didn't know anything, and it was inconvenient for him to ask more about this situation, so he just pondered a little, "Okay, this is no problem, but don't be too expensive, lest we can't afford it!" ”
The one that was added later was apparently said to the person who came with him, and the man blushed when he heard it.
"Good, good, good ......, not expensive or expensive," for Li Yi's promise, the shopkeeper was very happy, his mouth was almost closed, he paused for a moment, and said the second request: "The second request is simple, this set of carving knives is the master's proud work, so I hope the owner can cherish it, so I specially prepared a good wiping cloth and gave it to you."
This second request sounded reasonable, and Li Yi couldn't think of anything famous, so he nodded and agreed.
A deal was negotiated like this, in order not to attract the attention of the people who came, Li Yi did not go here to study this set of carving knives, but to buy other things, because it was the first configuration, anyway, it was not his own money, so Li Yi did not have the meaning of saving a little, calculated it, and generated a lot of income for this store, and the shopkeeper of Le accompanied him until the end.
But in this process, nothing unreasonable happened, whether it was the guy in the store or the shopkeeper who couldn't close his mouth smiling, everything was normal.
Li Yi recalled again, and still didn't find anything different, but the fact is obvious, this set of carving knives will definitely be different, where is it, and how can he figure it out.
At the beginning, Li Yi also suspected that there was a mezzanine or something in the box, but he had already carefully checked it, it was a simple box, and every time the maker bought something, the maker department would also send someone to check it, and no one in the maker department told him that there was a problem with this thing, so it seemed that there was no mezzanine, otherwise it would not have been returned to him.
However, if there was no mystery, how could Mu Yuxuan go to the trouble of letting himself buy this set of carving knives?
Alas, it's really hard and laborious, damn Mu Yuxuan, what kind of money fan is playing, I don't know if this kind of game is the most boring, if you have time, my brother will give you a riddle, you can guess, hum, it's okay to bother brother, are you an idle egg?
Li Yi, who was unhappy for a while, vented his dissatisfaction with Mu Yuxuan in his heart, in fact, he didn't know why, although he also understood that this Mu Yuxuan may not have any good intentions, but at present, subconsciously he still took it as a potential help for him to leave here.
Because Mu Yuxuan said to him, I will definitely recruit you.
Hmph, wait for my brother to go out, see how you recruit me.
Although he was thinking about this or that question in his brain, it did not delay Li Yi's careful examination of the carving knife, because it was the dead of night, and it was in his own room, so he didn't have any scruples.
Yuan Li was gently mobilized, the white light in the pupils flashed, and the technique of 'Seeing Through' was used by Li Yi more and more proficiently, almost to the point of thinking about it, which was indeed not easy for a person who was not yet a real craftsman.
The twelve carving knives were arranged in order, Li Yi carefully observed them one by one, did not pull down any place where there might be secrets, and continued one after another, but each time he picked up a carving knife with hope, and then put it down with a disappointed face.
Time passed little by little, and as the last carving knife was put down, Li Yi still got nothing, nothing, unwilling to achieve such a result, he picked up the box again, and observed it carefully again.
The box is wooden, painted with vermilion lacquer, the wood feels very heavy, and the whole box is carved with line-like patterns, but no matter how you look at it, these patterns are not special, but they seem a little monotonous, straight lines, curved lines, square frames, and nothing special, if you really say that it is different, you can only say that the inside of the box is also carved with such a pattern, and the pattern looks similar, nothing different.
Despite this, Li Yi still focused on the box, just because of the requirements of the shopkeeper, he had already asked Master Zhang, the box where the carving knife was placed was generally a gift, and he didn't want to buy it at all.
Since there is no problem with the knife, then there should be a problem with the box, not to mention the special mention, Li Yi thought, of course, Li Yi also doubted the cloth, but he studied and found that the cloth was the same as the material used by Master Zhang except for a larger accident, and it was indeed the best material for wiping the carving knife, and there was nothing special besides.
So, if you think about it, there's only this box, this damn box, you tell me what secret you are hiding.
I watched it many times, but I still found nothing, Li Yi felt that his head was a little big, the box had no mezzanine, and he had seen it with 'Tongshi', so what else would be the problem?
Li Yi's eyes fell on the pattern, that is, the pattern carved on the box, a little contemplative, as if he had some understanding, as if talking to himself, said to himself, is this pattern strange, I didn't see anything, no, find a piece of paper to depict it, it is not convenient to observe it like this.
Li Yi no longer hesitated to make up his mind, turned out the pen and paper, and depicted it according to the pattern on the box, the pattern does not look complicated, but it is also very difficult to draw, Li Yi in order to ensure the integrity, the painting is very serious, there are patterns on a total of eight sides inside and outside, and it is also a very time-consuming work.
…………
And in the evening before that, Mu Yuxuan, who was in the inn, knew that Li Yi had bought his carving knife, and he paid the shopkeeper a large sum of money, no wonder the shopkeeper was so attentive.
And after sending the shopkeeper away, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he stood in front of the window, looked at the three towers of the Ministry of Artifacts in the distance and said: "I bought it until now, it really made me wait for a long time, and I don't know if you can figure it out, don't let me down, alas, I don't know when I will be able to complete this task, I have stayed in Mingde City for so long, and my body and bones are rusty." ”
Sleepless nights......
When Li Yi completely traced all the drawings on the box, it was already the morning of the next day.
thought that his eyes had not rested all night, so Li Yi's eyes appeared a rare redness, in fact, if it was just a night without rest, it would not be so, the key is that his eyes have been fatigued.
Seeing the eight rubbings of the finished products on the table, although it is very hard, but when all the hard work has been harvested, then the hard work is not hard work, for example, at this time, Li Yi does not feel tired at all, it is much easier than the last time he carved it.
Li Yi is very glad that he was able to paint the pattern on the box in person, because if it weren't for this, he wouldn't have found so many details, for example, these eight patterns look similar, but in fact they are different, but if you don't look closely, you will be confused by their almost similar lines, thinking that the patterns are the same.
