Chapter 45 The Water Ghost

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

For some reason, Fang Chong, who dared not look directly at the picture of the two bosses feeding each other lotus seeds, didn't dislike Wenming anymore. He quickly turned around and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Have you discovered any bricks and tiles with great historical, artistic and humanistic value?

Wenming leaned on the vermilion railing, his pupils violently trembled, and he said with a trembling voice: "The lake...there is...someone in the lake!!!"

What the hell?Is there someone in the lake?Wouldn't it be a water ghost... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!There are really people who have water ghosts!

Fang Chong followed Wenming's gaze, and saw a blue-white face hidden among the layers of green lotus leaves. The long black hair was like a twisted black snake, hanging on the side of his face and winding into the water.

Seeing him look over, that face smiled at him.

The penetrating chill rushed straight to his forehead, Fang Chong's head was empty, he could only keep shouting: "Boss Red! Boss Red! Yes... Yes..." There are ghosts!

The red medicine is eating the lotus seeds of Pei Ci's card player, and he is enjoying it. He doesn't want to pay attention to other people at all, but the physical and mental health of employees and future partners who are very likely to cooperate cannot be ignored. There is no way, he He could only reluctantly suspend the lotus seed tasting activity with Pei Ci, and said in a bad tone: "No matter what you have, come out to me quickly."

The familiar domineering red boss came online, which gave Fang Chong a great sense of security. His scalp didn't feel cold for a while, his voice stopped trembling, and he even dared to look for the ghost who just smiled at him in the lotus leaves with wide eyes. .

Just kidding, in front of all the monsters, the red boss is hanging!

The civilization that just got acquainted with red medicine is not optimistic. Even if they have never seen their industry dealing with antiquities, they can still hear many incidents that cannot be explained by science from teachers or seniors in the industry. If you hear a lot, it is inevitable Be in awe.

"Still... don't come out, shall we? Let's go first... first?"

Hey, he's still young, he hasn't done a big business yet, he doesn't want to fight against the water ghost!

There was a sudden sound of water flowing deep in the lotus leaves, as if something was swimming at the bottom of the lake. Not long after, the lotus leaves closest to the covered bridge were gently pushed aside, and the long-haired water ghost was lying on the railing, Looking at the people from bottom to top, he stammered: "Don't... don't pick it, lotus... the lotus will hurt."

ha? ? ?What kind of ancient ghost design is this?

Fang Chong and Wenming were really confused.

Hong Yao ate so many lotus seeds rich in spiritual energy just now, so she naturally understands what he means, but the issue of ownership still needs to be clarified: "This is my lake." The lotus leaves, lotus, lotus pods and lotus roots that grow in the lake are also his. Yes, of course he can pick it up whenever he wants.

Hong Yao, who just found out that she has a big garden under her name, is very confident.

The water ghost was stunned by the aura of the red medicine, and he was stuttering at first, but now he looked at the person directly and was speechless. After staring at the person silently for a while, he suddenly seemed to see something extraordinary Similarly, he looked back and forth between Hong Yao and Pei Ci, and then leaned back in fright—with a thud, the water ghost fell into the lake like a stubborn stone, but it didn't startle a little splash.

Am I that scary?I haven't done anything yet!Hong Yao looked at Pei Ci, feeling baffled by the water ghost's exaggerated reaction.

Before Pei Ci had time to appease Hong Yao, the sound of water sounded again, and the water ghost went and returned, but this time, his expression became much more lively.

The water ghost smiled apologetically, and said, "I haven't talked to a living person for too long, my tongue is a little stiff, forgive me!"

Fang Chong Wenming: "..." emm can say that lotus flowers hurt, maybe it's not just your tongue that's stiff.

Hong Yao waved his hand, this is not what he minded: "Is it true that I can't pick the lotus pods in this lake?"

Hong Yao's eyes swept across the green lake, and the ending sound was slightly raised, which was very meaningful.

The water ghost did not agree with what he said just now, and looked up at the red medicine with bright eyes: "Of course!" As he said, he also reached out from the water to fish out a few lotus pods that were more plump than the ones picked by the red medicine and put them together. A pile of fresh water chestnuts held in lotus leaves, "You can pick whatever you want!"

I don't know it's because he looked up from the bottom with his head up, his eyes are too bright and his voice is too enthusiastic. Several people always feel that his current performance is a bit too... flattering.

Hong Yao didn't move the lotus pods and water chestnuts on the side of the covered bridge. He stared at the water ghost for a moment and said, "Will the lotus not hurt now?"

The water ghost said seriously: "It has grown here for thousands of years, and it is already a lotus with spirits. It can understand."

As soon as he said these words, the lotus leaves in the lake swayed without wind, bringing out bursts of fragrant wind, as if echoing his words.

A thousand-year-old lotus? !Wenming looked at the lotus pods that had been broken down by the red medicine and the water ghost, and felt a pain in his heart. These are all living fossils!

Hong Yao looked at the swearing water ghost, and suddenly asked, "Do you know me?"

"Ah? Ah!" Shui Gui seemed a little frightened by Hong Yao's serious expression, he showed a flattering smile, and said cautiously, "You're asking this...is there anyone in our land who doesn't know you? .”

According to what you said, I don't even know myself.

After all, there are still outsiders around, so Hong Yao suppressed her doubts for the time being, and changed the subject: "Old man Yin used to take care of this garden?"

"Old man Yin?" The water ghost thought for a while, and then showed an expression of sudden realization, "You mean little friend Yin, he is indeed the generation of the Yin family who is in charge of taking care of the garden, but I have always taken care of this lake. Without him... In fact, he is also responsible for repairing and repairing the house, cleaning up the dust and fallen leaves, the trees in the garden have lived much longer than him, and he knows how to take care of himself."

Hearing what the water ghost said, Fang Chongming could not help but glance at the veranda and the moon gate at the end of the covered bridge leading to a further place. If they have lived for so long...there will not be more water like this one in there. It's like a ghost... What is that? !

"Speaking of which, the Yin family is not as good as the previous generation. In the early years, they could still live in several small courtyards. Slowly, there were fewer and fewer people. In Xiaoyou Yin's generation, he was the only one left. , now that he dies, the inheritance of the Yin family is completely broken." Shui Gui was still a little heartbroken at first, but when he saw the red medicine, he instantly became happy again, "But he can invite you back, which is already better than those of his. The ancestors are much stronger, so it is not in vain!"

Hong Yao's face was still as calm as before, but her heart was already full of small question marks. According to what the water ghost meant, the Yin family still had their ancestral mission to get him out of the imperial mausoleum?

Could it be that he is not an ordinary pottery figurine at all, but... the kind of key pottery figurine with a treasure map hidden in the hollow?

"You go back first, and we'll go shopping elsewhere." Maybe it's been a long time since I talked to a living person, and the water ghost seemed to be eloquent when he opened his mouth.

The water ghost nodded obediently, and took another look at Pei Ci, the red medicine, before entering the water, and said in an earnest way: "This lotus in the lake was planted by you and your son a thousand years ago... Now it has been alive for many years, but it has never been transformed into a human body. I'm really worried...you have the kindness of planting with it, can you give me some advice?"

Red Medicine: "???"

I'm not me without you, don't talk nonsense!When do I plant flowers?I have never grown flowers!

Seeing that the red medicine didn't respond, the water ghost glanced at the gently swaying emerald green lotus leaves around him, gritted his teeth, and mustered up the courage to place a lotus pod carved like jasper at Hong Yao's feet, and said in a low voice, "This is the lotus leaf." The lotus pod condensed from the thousand-year-old lotus spirit, you..."

Hong Yao bent down to pick up the jade lotus, and said nonsense with a very natural expression: "You have taken good care of this lotus in the lake, but some... some are too good. Every scene has to be sparse, dense, and patchwork. , Blindly dense will only be too much... You see, these lotus flowers are so prosperous that they have submerged the Huxin Pavilion."

Where did he, a terracotta figurine master, know the cultivation method of these perennial aquatic herbs and flowers?He didn't even know what kind of fertilizer they should use, so he just opened his eyes and talked nonsense anyway. If it is useful, it means that it is destined, and if it is not effective, it means that the cultivation is not enough.

Hong Yao thought he was talking nonsense with his eyes open, but the water ghost listened seriously, his eyes became brighter and more excited. He floated in the water, and performed a nondescript old ritual to Hong Yao and Pei Ci, and then went down In a second, it dived into the bottom of the lake like a fish.

Tsk, even though she's been dead for many years, she's still too naive... Hong Yao lightly tossed the jasper lotus pod in her hand, was shaking her head and sighing, when she turned her head, she met three complicated gazes.

"what happened?"

Pei Ci was the first to look away, but he shook his head without saying anything.

Fang Chong was not as steady as Pei Ci, he opened his mouth like a cannonball: "That water ghost said, you planted these lotus thousands of years ago...Is it true or not?"

Hong Yao put the lotus pod into the cloth bag, and continued to walk along the covered bridge without looking back, leaving only two people with lotus fragrance at the end—"Guess."

Fang Chong: "..."

At least you should cover up that idiotic look in your eyes!

……

Crossing the covered bridge and stepping into the moon gate with beautiful arcs, you will see another beautiful scenery in front of you. It is not the endless openness of the lotus lake, but the unique and exquisite garden scenery in every ten steps.

Hong Yao didn't like this kind of winding and tossing set, he thought it was cramped, but Pei Ci looked at it very seriously, he could stare at a strange rockery or a twisted old dwarf tree. Watch for a while.

There is also a civilization that is more exaggerated than Pei Ci, I don't know if he is naturally courageous, or if he is so selfless in research, he was trembling with fear from the water ghost just now, and now he sees pavilions, towers and castles everywhere. I forgot my fear in an instant, and wished to record everything here with my camera and my brain.

After the battery of the camera ran out, Wenming finally couldn't hold back any longer. He looked at Hongyao with sparkling eyes, full of high spirits: "Boss Hong, would you like to add this park to our 'Wei Lane Tourism Development Plan'? "

Hong Yao reminded: "It's possible that this is not Yin's mansion."

Who knows what the phantom he saw meant.

Wenming shook his head, his tone firm: "It doesn't matter whether this is the Duke of Yin's mansion or not, what matters is that the buildings and gardens here are real, as they were thousands of years ago!"

Hong Yao hardly hesitated. Although the old man Yin had put the garden under his name and given him the key, he did not know that there was such a place until today, and he outsourced it not long after he officially took it over. Is it a bit...

But he can only make incense sticks and paper figurines, and he is not proficient in woodwork, pottery, and brickwork like old man Yin. What does he use to maintain such a large garden?

Hong Yao's heart was full of thoughts, but on the face he just thought for a moment, he asked: "What kind of plan will it benefit me?"

Wenming gritted his teeth and said loudly, "You can charge for the tickets!"
