Chapter 77. Tattoos

After the little peacock "bloomed" the flowers, she looked at Lu Shen expectantly.Seeing him looking at him with a very cute look, Lu Shen couldn't help curling the corner of his mouth, and praised, "It's amazing!"

Seeing the little bird cub looking very happy because of being praised, Cang Li was a little jealous, but he didn't guess it himself, so he couldn't blame others, so he had to silently hug the little thing into his arms.However, after the little peacock was held in his arms, he obediently rubbed his feathers against him, and the sourness and loss in Cang Li's heart were instantly soothed.

No way, it's so easy to satisfy.

Since they couldn't understand what the little peacock said, several people gathered around the small wooden table and began to think about the connection, "Luminous flower, Ah Shou." Lu Shen repeated these two words and asked the little peacock, "You want to express, what is the connection between the two, right?"

The little peacock nodded his little head, and the feather crown swayed with his movements, indicating that Lu Shen's guess was right.As a cub, he liked the natural and peaceful aura of Lu Shen very much.

But no matter what, he still likes Da Qinglong the most.

Lu Shen received an affirmative answer, looked at the luminous flower on the small table, and muttered to himself, "The luminous flower is almost extinct these years, so what is the connection between Ah Shou and this flower? Ah Shou is only four years old..." And before the disappearance of the village of A Shou, there were basically no activities outside Xiaoshan, and the luminous flowers did not grow in Xiaoshan.

"Could it be that Ah Shou is a spirit made of luminous flowers?" Li Yu had a flash of inspiration, and answered the question with great interest.Cang Li glanced at him, really didn't want to admit that Li Yu was his subordinate.But he believed that the answer that Li Yu came up with was indeed this - with his brain, it was not easy to come up with this.

"I think it should be the disappearance of Ah Shou's village, and what is the connection with this luminous flower, or this luminous flower is a clue or something." Mu Dianmo thought of a possibility, and asked the little peacock, but got a negative answer.

"Could it be that something is on Ah Shou's body, related to the luminous flower?" Cang Li followed the little peacock's train of thought this time, and after finishing speaking, he was praised with a "chirp".

Cang Li, who became in a particularly good mood in an instant, leaned over and kissed the little peacock, and by the way looked around at the few people present, with a look of color on his face——Sure enough, Yan Yan and I have a sympathetic heart!Li Yu rolled his eyes and thought to himself, as expected, human beings are still right, as long as a man falls in love, his IQ will drop.Look, the boss is the most typical example.

"Is it related to the luminous flower?" After thinking for a while, Lu Shen suddenly asked with some uncertainty, "You mean, tattoos?" something.So the only difference between Ah Shou and other human cubs he knew was the tattoos on his body.

The little peacock flapped its wings and jumped in Cang Li's arms, looking very excited, indicating that this was the answer.

Seeing that he was so excited, Lu Shen smiled again, "Well, I see. The tattoo on Ah Shou's body should be made of some kind of plant as pigment, and painted on bit by bit, but how do you know it was used? What about the glow-in-the-dark flowers?" He has lived in the forest for so long and is familiar with the glow-in-the-dark flowers, but he didn't realize that the tattoo on Ah Shou's back was related to the glow-in-the-dark flowers.Presumably, it is because the pigments made of those flower juices have passed a long time ago and have gone through some special processes, so they are almost impossible to distinguish.

But this little peacock did it, even when the dry stems of the luminous flowers had withered.

The little peacock tilted his head, thinking about how he should answer this question.He looked left and right, and finally fixed his eyes on Cang Li's handsome face. After studying for a few seconds, he waved his wings without hesitation, and slapped the tip of the other's nose, indicating that he smelled it with his nose.After fanning, he felt regretful and worried that he would hurt Cang Li, so he hurried over and stroked Cang Li's nose with the soft feathers on his wings.

Cang Li let him move, in fact, he didn't feel it at all with a little bit of strength like a little bird, but since there was a "loving touch", how could he refuse?

After being cared about, Cang Li said, "It should be that the little peacock smelled the scent of luminous flowers when he saw the tattoo on Ah Shou's back, and smelled it again after arriving in Lu Shen's room. And he also identified that the smell came from the dead branch. He reminded us so eagerly, which means that he found that there must be something wrong with the tattoo on Ah Shou's back."

After hearing Cang Li's words, the little peacock stood on his lap and nodded, indicating that Cang Li was right.He also poked his head to rub Cang Li's slender fingers with attachment.

Shen Ren, who was sitting across from him, stretched out his hand and slapped the tip of his nose, and sighed secretly, it was enough, why would he be able to show his face even in a meeting?If I continue to show my affection without limit, I'm really going to fall in love!

After Lu Shen thought it over, he sighed a little, "As expected of a peacock, it is said that the peacock family is a descendant of Yuanfeng, with many talents and supernatural powers, it seems to be true." The dead branch has been dead for so many years, and the little peacock has heard It came out and brought back to life and bloomed flowers.You must know that everything in the world has its own laws, which cannot be violated, otherwise the whole world will be in chaos.Therefore, things that have lost their life cannot be brought back to life. This is a law that everyone knows.

But now, in a clear violation of this rule, the peacock breathes life into a dead branch.

"Is there any problem if you violate the law of life?" Lu Shen looked at the ignorant little peacock and asked Cang Li with some concern.Although he didn't know why the peacock appeared in this world, Cang Li obviously had a very close connection with him.

And obviously, the relationship between Cang Li and Peacock is very close.

Cang Li knew that Lu Shen was out of concern, and shook his head, "No, the little bird is in a special situation and will not be restricted by the laws of heaven here." As for why it will not be restricted, he didn't go on.

Seeing that he didn't say anything more, Lu Shen knew that the reason for this was a secret and could not be revealed.I felt that my question was a bit abrupt, so I stopped the topic.

Carefully picked off the blooming flowers on the dead branches, Lu Shen took out a small roller, put the flowers in it, finely ground it into juice, poured it into a small wooden cup and put it in full bloom.When he was ready, he took out the wooden whistle from before and blew a tune.

After a while, the sika deer and A Shou appeared at the door of the hut.I don't know where he went wild, A Shou's clothes were stained with flowers and leaves of many plants, but obviously, he was very happy playing in the forest.

"Da da" ran into the house a few times, A Shou said hello to everyone present, then ran over and hugged Lu Shen's thigh, raised his round head, "Uncle Lu, you are looking for A Shou ?” The voice was soft and waxy.

Lu Shen nodded, first wiped the sweat off his forehead, and then carefully removed the burrs and leaves on his clothes.Then tell him that some uncles need to see the tattoo on his back and he needs to take off his coat, so that he should not be afraid.A-Shou nodded and obediently complied.

After removing the coat, the tattoo is revealed.Several people researched it, and found that the word "Shou" was on the front chest, which had been identified by Mu Dianmo.There are several curved lines on the back, and I don't know what it means for the time being.

Looking at the ready-made luminous flower juice, "However, where should we apply it?" Several people hesitated. There are not many luminous flowers, so there must be no way to cover Ah Shou's whole body.

The little peacock let out a "chirp", instructing Cang Li to hug him, then stretched out his little wings, and pointed to the top of those curved lines, indicating that it was there.

Lu Shen applied the flower juice evenly on the place he pointed, and several people stared at it without blinking, expecting the upcoming changes.The feeling that this mystery is about to be revealed is still very exciting.

But after waiting for a long time, Ah Shou's back was still the same as before, without any change.

"Could there be a problem in any link?"

The little peacock was also a little strange. He was held by Cang Li, and he leaned over to take a closer look, and he was sure that the smell was right. He could also "see" that the "breath" on Ah Shou's back had been fused together, but on the surface There is indeed no change in the pattern.He retracted his furry body, opened a pair of round eyes and didn't know what to do.

Cang Li thought for a while and asked Lu Shen, "Did you say that this kind of flower is called 'luminous flower'? The light at night?"

Lu Shen nodded, "Yes, it's called Ye Guang—"

After getting the answer he wanted, Cang Li curled his lips into a smile, and casually raised his hand. The next moment, he looked out of the window, and saw that the outside suddenly became dark, and the oil lamp in the wooden house sensed that the sky was getting darker. It lights up automatically.

All of a sudden, there was a storm, and countless dark and heavy clouds gathered in the sky above the forest, covering the sky, as if it was dark.

After about two or three minutes, there was a sudden change on Ah Shou's back, which had not changed at all.I saw a little silver light emerging from the place where the flower juice was applied before, and began to reorganize according to some unknown law. After a while, a pattern gradually became clear on Ah Shou's back.

After the silver light spot disappeared, the complete picture appeared completely.I saw that the wavy line is below, and there are five small cones in a circle on the top, and a larger "triangle" in the middle.

"What does this express?" Li Yu looked at this "painting" researchingly, and felt that he really couldn't understand human wisdom, a few wavy lines, and five small triangles, what do they mean?

Mu Dianmo looked at the pattern carefully, and speculated, "I think it's a landscape."

"Shanshui?" Li Yu looked again, but he still couldn't see where there were mountains and where there was water.

Seeing the stupid look on Li Yu's face, Shen Ren pulled him away directly, "If you are ugly, you should read more."

Li Yu: "..." Hehe!

Cang Li hugged the little peacock beside him, and listened to Mu Dianmo's guess and nodded, "Well, it should be mountains and rivers." He also agreed with Mu Dianmo's judgment, "When humans created their characters a long time ago, they used I like to use simple symbols to express natural things." He raised his hand, and a cyan breath overflowed from his fingertips, and with his movements, he "written" the oldest character "water" in the air. Just a few wavy lines.The strokes dissipated, and he wrote the word "mountain" again, which indeed consisted of several overlapping triangle symbols, expressing the meaning of "mountain".

"So what is engraved on Ah Shou's back is actually a river and five mountains?" Shen Ren concluded, "Then he has hidden tattoos on his chest, too?"

Cang Li denied it, because Little Peacock didn't find anything else.But just to be on the safe side, Lu Shen still used the flower juice of the luminous flower and applied it to Ah Shou's chest.

Ah Shou already knew that there was a pattern on his back, so he also looked at his chest curiously.

After waiting for a long time, there is still no change, only the word "Shou" is engraved on the skin.

"There are mountains and waters. Is this just a custom handed down from a long time ago by the villagers who guard the village? Human beings who live along the river and against the mountains will always worship the mountains and rivers and engrave them on their bodies. It's not surprising." Mu Dianmo took out a pen and paper, and copied all the patterns. Looking at the simple patterns, he felt that although he had found a complete tattoo pattern, he still had no clue.

As for Hu San, he was completely dizzy, scratched his head, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "How about I take you to find the takin? He is from our village, our branch is the smartest in our Qinling branch." !” After finishing his sentence with difficulty, Hu San rejoiced in his heart, thanks to the absence of the takin, if he knew that he was “long” and “short,” he would definitely get angry.

But we are a stockade, Hu San has never been able to figure out why takins are always so entangled.

Takin?Cang Li nodded, "Okay, then we'll go back to your place first."

They said a few more words, said goodbye to Lu Shen and left.

Before leaving, Hu San ran up to Lu Shen and stood in front of Lu Shen. Seeing Grandpa Lu's indifferent expression, his eyes suddenly became sore, "Grandpa Lu, can I come to you for a cup of tea later?"

Lu Shen originally wanted to refuse, but his eyes were a little red when he saw him, and he remembered that soft little tiger a long time ago, so well-behaved and cute, his eyes were always wet.Looking at the strong man with a thick beard and a scumbag in front of him, he hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't resist his soft heart, so he nodded.

Then he saw that Hu San's eyes were not red in an instant, and his face was full of excitement, "Then it's settled, Grandpa Lu, when I'm done with this matter, I'll bring Jin Sisi and the takin over to drink tea!" Fearing that Lu Shen would regret it, he ran away at a flying speed.

Looking at Hu San's back, Lu Shen opened his mouth and then closed it silently. He felt that he regretted it now-did I forget to say that on the day I came, I had to take a shower and put on clothes?Forget it, it's a big deal to wash the cups a few more times, oh, and there are chairs and tables.

For the sake of how cute the little tiger used to be - but thinking about it this way, Lu Shen touched his heart, feeling very painful.

The author has something to say: follow-up:

Tiger King: Ahhhhhhh I tell you a shocking good news!

Jin Sisi: Your Majesty, have you married a wife?

Takin: Do you have a tiger cub?

Tiger King: I haven't found my wife yet!It was Grandpa Lu who promised me that I could go to his place for tea!And allow me to take you all with me!

Jin Sisi and the takin began to walk out...

Tiger King: What are you doing?

Jin Sisi: Your Majesty, we are going to help you fill the bath water and prepare the bath towels.

Tiger King: There are still several days to go, why do you wash now?

Jin Sisi: My lord, it took a few days to wash it clean!I advise the king to wash it earlier, because in fact, I think you may not be able to wash it clean for a few days!

Tiger King felt an arrow in his heart.As a tiger, I really love being clean already!

Deer God: The wind is too strong, I didn't hear clearly, what did you just say?

A large group of Qinling onlookers: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!Boss is taking a shower!I'm going to prepare a few more buckets of clean water!When the boss takes a bath, he pollutes a river!

Tiger King: "..."
