The old man glanced at Shui Xinyou, smiled slightly, but ignored her.He then took out an iron box from his bosom and threw it to Yun Chenxiao, "For the sake of drinking with me, I'll give you one night, and I'll come to pick up the box tomorrow morning. Girl Yun, I'll give you a chance. Hmph, it's all up to you to get this chance!" After saying that, with a loud smile and a wave of his long sleeves, Shi Shiran disappeared into the night.

************************************************** ********************

Yun Chenxiao held the iron box of the mirror in his hand, and looked at it carefully in front of his eyes by the light of the fire.This time, she did not glance over like she did the first time, but looked at the details carefully, without missing a single detail.I saw that the iron box was square, the size of a brick, and the whole body was jet black. It seemed to be made of high-quality iron and was indestructible.On the surface of the iron box are some strangely shaped characters, some are curved, while others are horizontal and vertical.Moreover, these characters are not only on the upper surface, but also on the six sides of the iron box.Yun Chenxiao studied it for a long time, but couldn't come up with a clue, so she handed it to Shui Xinyou to continue reading.

Shui Xinyou also observed for a long time, and suddenly smiled and said: "Ah, the little dog, this box can move!" As he spoke, he played with the mirror iron box.Sure enough, only a few "clicks" were heard, and the box seemed to be divided into several small pieces, which could be turned up, down, left, and right.

Yun Chenxiao nodded and said: "That's right, I also discovered this. Each surface is divided into sixteen small squares, so the whole iron box is divided into 64 small boxes. However, no matter how you turn it, it seems It doesn't help to open the box!" She said and took back the tin box, frowning: "The key now is to figure out what the messy symbols on the box mean! Oh, this is the most troublesome."

Shui Xinyou patted Yun Chenxiao on the shoulder, and comforted her softly: "Hey, our puppy is so smart, these little things will definitely not trouble her! If you think about it slowly, there will always be a way! "

Yun Chenxiao took a look at Shui Xinyou, nodded and took Shui Xinyou's hand and said, "Come on, let's sit down and think together. Sigh, who wrote these ghost symbols? I'm really full." of!"

Shui Xinyou sat down according to the words, played with the Jingxu iron box and said casually: "This Jingxu iron box is said to have been passed down from Tianzhu."

After hearing this, Yun Chenxiao waved his hands and said with a smile: "Well, they all went to the west? Then tell me, did Master Xuanzang bring it back when he went to the west to learn scriptures? Or the Tathagata Buddha saw that Master Xuanzang had no body. If you don’t want anything, why don’t you just give him such a mirror iron box and ask him to use it for alms?”

Shui Xinyou pushed Yun Chenxiao's head away abruptly and said, "I'm telling you seriously, do you still want to interrupt? Huh, I won't tell you, you deserve it because you can't open the iron box! You were caught by that old monster !"

Yun Chenxiao giggled, looked at Shui Xinyou eagerly, and said in a flattering voice: "Oh, Xiao Youer, to be honest, if I was really caught by that old monster, what would you do?"

Shui Xin gave her a white look, and said: "What should I do? Sleep well, and eat three meals a day without worrying!"

Yun Chenxiao was bored, so she curled her lips, sighed resentfully, and looked sideways at Shui Xinyou in a daze.Shui Xinyou picked up the Jingxu iron box and shook it in front of Yun Chenxiao, angrily said: "What am I doing? Look at the box!"

Yun Chenxiao gasped, and murmured: "You look much better than this stinky box..." She turned her face away and played with the box.

After a long time, Shui Xinyou saw that Yun Chenxiao was still frowning, and he couldn't bear it, so he leaned over to pillow Yun Chenxiao's arm and said, "Oh, no amount of capable people can beat this box." Yes, you don't have to be too forceful. Don't worry, there is no unparalleled road, and God must love you very much. How could you be caught by that old man?"

Yun Chenxiao raised her head and sighed, "You're only good at talking. Even if the old man doesn't make things difficult for me, I'm going to be tortured to death by such a weird bastard."

Shui Xin smiled faintly, raised her head and said, "Then don't let it torment you. Come on, come on, show me the stars again."

Yun Chenxiao frowned and said, "Is there still time to spare?"

Shui Xinyou seemed to have already made up her mind, dragging Yun Chenxiao's arm and said angrily, "Smelly puppy, you are dishonest! Do you want me to torment you?"

Yun Chenxiao grinned helplessly, and was about to speak when Shui Xinyou waved his fist, Yun Chenxiao lost all confidence and nodded repeatedly.The two of them lay flat on the grass, and put the mirror iron box in the middle.This night the moon and stars are sparse, only a few scattered in the sky, but a round of bright moon is very bright and clear, the moonlight is cold and clear, and it is extremely peaceful and quiet.In the middle of the moon, the shadows are faint, and they are about to be exposed, but they are covered. It seems that the green hills are covered with daisy, high and long, and unsteady; it is also like a fairy dancing, graceful and elegant, attracting infinite reverie.

The two were silent for a long time, Yun Chenxiao was upset, looked at the moon for a while, then turned sideways, staring straight at Shui Xinyou in a daze.Shui Xinyou looked at the sky with her eyes, sometimes she had a smile on her lips, she was charming and beautiful, and sometimes her brows were sad, I felt pity when I saw it.Suddenly, Shui Xinyou giggled, stretched out his hand, and drew a few times in the air with his slender fingers, and said with a smile: "Look, puppy Yun, those stars in the sky are arranged like a turtle! "

Yun Chenxiao was surprised, looked up, and saw those stars arranged in an oval shape, and there was a small star following behind, it really looked like a tortoise.Yun Chenxiao chuckled, turned over and was about to speak, but Shui Xinyou pointed at her forehead and said, "It just looks like you!"

Yun Chenxiao took her hand and didn't refute, with a resigned look, she said with a smile: "The gui is just the gui. It has a long life! Also, the gui is a great hero of our Chinese culture. ! Xiao Youer, you are flattering me! I thank you!"

Shui Xinyou leaned in front of Yun Chenxiao, pulled out his hand and pressed Yun Chenxiao's back and said, "Are you talking nonsense to me again? Well, I'll listen to your explanation, little turtle, if you justify yourself, that's fine, if not If it’s not good, I will slap your tortoise shell with one palm and make your back bloom!"

Yun Chenxiao said with a smile: "Hey, it's hard to say? Don't you know Hetu Luoshu? A dragon horse floated out of the Huang River, carried "River Tu" on its back, and dedicated it to Fuxi. It also surfaced the ghost ghost, carried the "Book of Luo" on its back, and dedicated it to Dayu. Dayu succeeded in controlling the water and divided the world into Kyushu. Therefore, it is said, "The river draws pictures, Luo publishes books, and sages follow them." Is it the big black gui's credit? What, our knowledgeable and talented little Yuer doesn't know?"

Shui Xinyou snorted coldly, then withdrew his hand and said: "Who said I don't know? Hetu Luoshu is the source of yin and yang and five elements, how can I not know? It was just a test for you! The answer is not good not bad."

Yun Chenxiao nodded and said goodbye: "Okay then, let me ask you, what are the numbers of Hetu? What is Luoshu talking about?"

Shui Xin leisurely said: "The river diagram implies the number of heaven and earth, the art of the five elements, the number of Da Yan, and the number of heaven and earth. Luoshu is the source of number. To put it bluntly, it is a nine-square grid! The numbers that are horizontal and vertical are added together. Both equal fifteen."

Yun Chenxiao smiled slightly, and said: "Hehe, I don't think you really have some knowledge. This Luoshu is indeed a nine-square grid. I liked playing this game the most when I was young, alas..." When she said this, she suddenly stopped , sat up with a groan, and murmured to himself: "Nine palaces, nine palaces?" Immediately, he grabbed the mirror iron box and fiddled with it back and forth, spinning back and forth non-stop.

Shui Xinyou's thoughts turned sharply, and he realized something in a moment: "You mean, this mirror iron box is a nine-square grid? As long as the numbers in the grid are turned correctly, this box can be opened naturally?"

Yun Chenxiao nodded and said: "That's right. Besides, I've read in books that Tianzhu's arithmetic has a long history, and its solutions are exquisite and profound, which is not inferior to my Chinese arithmetic. If this box really came from Tianzhu, it is very likely that it is Open this iron box according to the principles of arithmetic. However, this is not a nine-square grid, but a sixteen-square grid. Haha, it turned out that it was going around and around, and it came to my old business."
