Fantasy Mirror Travel Records

It was by chance that Chu Liuxiang appeared here, and it was not by accident.

Seven days ago, he was drinking with Ji Bingyan and Hu Tiehua in Lanzhou.Gathering friends together is always a joyful event, even the cold and proud Ji Bingyan put on a smile after eating three cups of yellow soup, and happily told them one thing——

"Yesterday, a Hu merchant passed by. I saw that there was an exquisite golden nanmu box in his goods. I thought it must be a rare treasure, so I wanted to make a deal with him. The Hu merchant offered a thousand taels of gold..."

When Hu Tiehua heard this, he couldn't help but gasped: "My dear, a thousand taels of gold is not a small amount, even the gold-plated crystal vase with a hundred birds in the palace is only a hundred taels of gold!"

Chu Liuxiang also smiled. He has seen countless rare treasures, and it is indeed hard to find such a price of a thousand taels of gold. For a while, he became interested: "What kind of treasure is it?"

"Mirror." Ji Bingyan stretched out a finger, "a palm-sized mirror."

"Could it be made of pure gold and studded with colorful treasures?"

Ji Bingyan gave Hu Tiehua a contemptuous look: "A big boss is a big boss. As you said, although expensive, it is not precious. It is just a pile of craftsmen without aura, just a vulgar thing!"

Hu Tiehua refused to accept: "Then tell me, what kind of mirror can afford the price of 'a thousand taels of gold'?"

"To be precise, there is only half a mirror in the box. The frame is made of Kunlun mithril, and the fourteen evil stones are decorated with seven snake eyes. The mirror is made of a whole piece of snow jade crystal." Ji Bingyan said, "It's a pity that There are two mirrors, yin and yang, there is a mirror on the front and back, and there is only one of them in the box."

"Delicate things are indeed precious, but... that's not enough for the word 'strange'." Chu Liuxiang poured him a glass of wine, "Don't be a fool, this mirror can make you worry, there must be something rare. "

Ji Bingyan smiled and said, "That's a fantasy mirror."

Hu Tiehua wondered: "The mirror of the fantasy world?"

"That's right." Ji Bingyan took a sip of wine, "I also heard about this thing when I was walking in the desert in the early years. It is said that if this mirror has both sides of yin and yang, it can understand the ancient and modern, chaotic yin and yang, and make people's soul go out of their bodies and wander in the sky. Outside the empty square, there are endless mysteries, almost like a fairy treasure."

Hu Tiehua was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed: "Do you still believe in these things?"

"Hey, it's said that 'beyond heaven and earth, saints don't speak'. I don't have to believe in ghosts and mysteries, and I can't take it lightly." Chu Liuxiang smiled, and then looked at Ji Bingyan, "In your opinion, I think this thing is real. Fake?"

Ji Bingyan shook her head: "It's hard to recognize a relationship, but Hu merchants take it seriously. If you don't give money, you won't even touch it."

The smile in Chu Liuxiang's eyes deepened: "That's why you told me about it?"

Ji Bingyan asked back: "Isn't it enough to arouse your interest?"

Hu Tiehua looked left and right, and finally came to his senses, he laughed and patted Ji Bingyan on the shoulder: "You bloody cock is waiting here! Old bug, it's up to you again!"

Ji Bingyan raised a finger: "I don't want too much—borrow something for one night, and return it as scheduled before dawn. If the lesson is true, I can afford a thousand taels of gold; How about it?"

Chu Liuxiang drank the wine in his glass with a smile, and said, "Yes, but there is one condition."

"You said."

"The poem says 'Grape wine luminous cup', when I return tonight, I want you to use the best glass cup to take the best wine from the Western Regions to meet the wind."

"it is good!"

Husband and dog friends hit it off immediately, and Chu Liuxiang entered the posthouse where Hu merchants stayed alone.

There is no reason for the bandit commander to go back and forth in vain. Because it was a borrowed item for one night, Chu Liuxiang did not disturb others. He went to the box to get the item at the third watch, left a note in the original place, and left within half a cup of tea. After leaving the post house, the wind and grass attract more attention than him.

Flying and landing on a big tree, Chu Liuxiang opened the wooden box and took out the precious mirror.This mirror is indeed only the size of a palm, and many of the edges and corners of the frame have been smoothed. It can be seen that it is often played with by people. However, Hu Shang wrapped it with layers of soft cloth and silk satin, placed it in golden nanmu, and put it on. Nine-knot chain lock, which just shows that he is not the original owner of this mirror.

Chu Liuxiang raised his eyebrows, and held up the precious mirror to look at it in the moonlight. Just as Ji Bingyan said, this mirror is quite ancient in style. Mithril is different from ordinary gold and silver, and it is not afraid of corrosion by wind, sand, water and fire. What's new is that there are only dirt lines that cannot be cleaned in the gaps of the engravings on the frame. I am afraid that it has been buried under the loess for so many years, and it is only now being excavated.

The frame is made up of seven silver snakes connected from head to tail. The snake's eyes are inlaid with fourteen evil stones. This stone is originally a Buddhist evil treasure.

"Good stuff." Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but praised, and was about to put away the mirror to look for Ji Bingyan, when suddenly he felt something was wrong - he wasn't in the mirror.

Although it was dark at this time, the big tree where Chu Liuxiang was located was bathed in the moonlight, it was not as bright as day, nor was it dim.But the mirror was so foggy that nothing was reflected except a full moon.

However, tonight is not the fifteenth day, and there is only half a moon in the sky.

Even though Chu Liuxiang was well-informed, she couldn't help but hold her breath at this moment. What was even more surprising was that the full moon in the mirror was getting bigger and bigger, and soon the entire mirror surface turned into a glaring blank, which made people's eyes ache. It hurts, I can't see anything clearly, like a blind person.

But Chu Liuxiang closed and opened his eyes, and the precious mirror in his hand disappeared, and people came here from the outskirts of Lanzhou. Although it was still in the border of Mobei, after looking around, he felt that everything was wrong.

"I walked in all directions for seven days, trying to find the way back, but no matter how I walked, I kept going around here, as if I had entered a maze, and it was difficult to get out until I found the door of life." After Chu Liuxiang finished speaking, Lu Xiaofeng was walking Looking at myself, "What's wrong?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Brother Chu speaks so frankly about such a strange thing, aren't you afraid that I won't believe it?"

"Believe it or not, it all depends on whether it is worth believing." Chu Liuxiang closed the folding fan, "Although eyes can be deceiving, my intuition is always very accurate."

Lu Xiaofeng stroked his palms: "Brother Chu treats people with sincerity, that's the style of a gentleman."

"Wrong, I will lie too, but I won't lie to my friends."

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

"I really believe Brother Chu's words, because..." Lu Xiaofeng paused, his gaze narrowed slightly, "I have seen such a mirror before I came here."

Lu Xiaofeng is a troublesome person, not only does he love to make trouble, trouble also loves to find him, especially he has many troublesome friends.

Sikong Zhaixing is one of the best.

"There are thousands of changes, and the master is empty." People in the world say that Sikong Zaixing is the king of stealing kings, but in Lu Xiaofeng's eyes, he is just a monkey spirit, and even more of a jerk.

Losing a bet, he had to dig 860 earthworms for Sikong Zhaixing. When Lu Xiaofeng was digging earthworms on the grass with his butt pouted, he really wanted to stuff all the earthworms in this jar into the monkey spirit's mouth.

"840 eight, 840 nine, 850...860!"

As soon as the last word was pronounced, Sikong Zhaixing landed in front of Lu Xiaofeng in response to the ending. He first looked at the wriggling earthworms in the clay pot, and counted the number by squinting his eyes. Then he burst into laughter and kicked it lightly with his toes. The dirty Lu Xiaofeng said, "Lu Xiaoji, there are 860 earthworms here, and you still need 140 earthworms!"

Lu Xiaofeng, who was paralyzed on the ground like a puddle of mud, heard this, and almost jumped up to fight him: "When will I owe you another 140?"

Sikong Zhaixing smiled "hehe": "The 860 earthworms were dug within three days as promised, and it's already the fourth day. Don't you want interest?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."

Why does he have such a friend? !

Lu Xiaofeng sat down on the muddy ground, and Sikong Zhaixing also sat down on a tree with a crooked neck opposite, winking at him: "Lu Xiaoji, guess where I come from?"

Lu Xiaofeng looked him up and down, and saw that Sikong Zaixing was wearing a very ordinary coarse cloth bunt, he looked like an extremely ordinary passerby.

However, he quickly smiled: "Monkey spirit, you didn't even care about the horse's feet, did you go to the palace for a while?"

Sikong Zhaixing wore a pair of black satin soft-soled boots. The soles of the boots were engraved with non-slip dents, which allowed him to walk extremely steadily even on ice.

They are currently in the capital city in the late spring of April, and the ice floes on the river have long since melted. The only thing that can make Sikong Zhaixing use such a pair of boots is the shiny glazed tiles on the roof of the palace.

Sikong Zhaixing didn't deny it either, and said with a smile: "Then guess what good thing I found this time?"

Lu Xiaofeng rolled his eyes: "A few days ago, there was an envoy from the Mobei tribe to present tribute to the emperor to celebrate his birthday. Could it be... Monkey spirit, you are so bold!"

Sikong Zhaixing called Qu and said: "What's so special about those tributes? If I have to suffer for them, I might as well steal the bellyband of the imperial concubine!"

Since it was not a tribute, Lu Xiaofeng also became interested: "Then what rarity did you get?"

"The Raksha Kingdom paid tribute to the emperor with a beauty. It is said that she is blond and blue-eyed, with a high nose and deep eyes. She looks very good-looking. I went to see her."

Hearing the beauty, Lu Xiaofeng was even more interested: "How do you see it?"

Sikong Zhaixing was categorical: "It's worthy of the name!"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled with his eyes wide open: "It is said that 'thieves don't leave empty space', since you are a beauty, you must have taken something by your side, take it out and have a look."

Sikong Zhaixing reached into his bosom, and took out a plain satin bag, which contained a palm-sized round mirror with a silver edge.

Lu Xiaofeng raised his eyebrows, picked up the mirror and looked at it, he saw seven golden snakes around the frame, fourteen red jewels dotted the snake's eyes, it didn't look like the Central Plains craftsman's style, and the style was quite ancient.

"This is the dowry brought by the Raksha concubine. It is not counted as a tribute. I took it from the dressing table while she and the emperor were on the dragon bed." Sikong Zhaixing grinned, "The mirror frame It is made of red gold, and the mirror surface is a whole piece of flowing chalcedony, which is warm to the touch, and the mercury layer under it is smooth and without trace, it can be regarded as a rare treasure."

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help laughing at him: "You're a big man who doesn't lack money, doesn't worry about things, and doesn't have a confidante, so what's the use of the best mirror?"

Sikong Zhaixing rolled his eyes at him: "That's why I can do 'Miaoshoukongkong', but you can only dig earthworms here."

It is common for two people to fight each other when they disagree, and now is no exception.Until the end of the long night and the dawn in the east, the morning light leaked densely from among the clouds, slowly spreading into a red glow covering the sky, and a round of Huayang had revealed half of its face at some point.

"It's, it's dawn..." Sikong Zaixing was out of breath when Lu Xiaofeng pinned him down on the grass, and now he raised his leg and kicked him, provoking, "Go, get grandpa's mirror! "

The mirror was casually placed on the grass when they were fighting, Lu Xiaofeng yawned and walked over, bent down to pick up the mirror and was about to turn around when suddenly he stopped.

There is a perfect red sun in the mirror.

The early sun in the sky has not yet fully emerged from the clouds.

He was looking down at the mirror, but there was only a growing red sun in the mirror, without Lu Xiaofeng's shadow.

"Lu Xiaoji, let's go eat the peas from Lao Huang's house today..." Sikong Zaixing got up from the ground, muttered while turning to look at Lu Xiaofeng, and froze on the spot for the next moment.

Behind him was the wind blowing grass and trees, but there was no other abnormal noise, and Lu Xiaofeng was gone.

"..."

"..."

After Lu Xiaofeng finished talking about her situation, the scene was quiet and awkward for a while.

The same people from the end of the world, why do they know each other when they meet.

If it wasn't for the lack of good wine here, now would not be a good time to exchange glasses, Lu Xiaofeng would definitely have a drink with Chu Liuxiang to express his feelings, after all, there are not many people in the world who can recite words to this extent, wishing they could hold their hands and choke.

It's a pity that the cold wind blew past, bringing the sound of moaning and groaning, Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang turned back to the lobby, but neither of them was good at discriminating against yellow, and there was nothing they could do in the face of the poisonous people everywhere.

"It's a good thing that the poison is strong, but I'm not in a rush to kill people. I'll apply acupoints for them to temporarily prevent the onset of poison, but the antidote..." Lu Xiaofeng paused, "Since the boss is saving their lives for the time being, it means that these people are alive It is more useful than being dead, and she is likely to appear again."

"I've searched around the inn, but she seems to have disappeared out of thin air. Except for that strand of broken hair, there's nothing left." For those with high strength in lightness kung fu, there is an open space outside the door instead of a blinding jungle, and even a rabbit can keep its eyes on.However, just in this wrong moment, the proprietress disappeared outside the door. If it wasn't for her lightness kung fu supernatural, or there was a secret channel nearby.

The two looked at each other, Lu Xiaofeng said: "Leave these people to me."

Chu Liuxiang understood: "Leave it to me to search the inn."
