The mountain ghost blows out the lights

The path in the forest is narrow and twists and turns. This one is the only one that has been trampled on for many years. It is not easy to walk.

Fortunately, these two have excellent physiques, and they won't feel tired even after walking for such a long time.

I don't know how long it took before I finally reached the end of the path.

There was a large open space in front of the two of them.

The vegetation in the mountain is luxuriant, only here it is slightly sparse, as if it has been cleaned by someone, revealing a bare mountain wall behind, which is a whole piece of stone.

There is a... a small building with a strange shape in the open space.

It was only when Yan Jinping saw it that he understood what Shen Lianxing's hesitation before.

The small building is quite tall, close to the mountain wall, and at the bottom is an ordinary house, but there are a lot of bits and pieces hanging from the eaves, most of which are hemp ropes, swaying in the wind.

If you look at it alone, it is simply an ordinary forest building.

But on the roof of this house, a house with a completely different style was built.The outside wall was painted dark blue, and there were many pipes hanging in a criss-cross pattern. These pipes went in and out of the wall, and then extended along the building to the ground, where they were buried deeply.

On top of it there was another floor, also freshly repaired, with a few extra slender legs to support the ground, and a surprisingly large number of chimneys...

After all these things, five floors were built in a row before it was finished.

Obviously everyone is next to each other, but no one has anything to do with the other, as if they were moved from other places out of thin air, and then thrown together randomly, the houses are built on top of each other, just like a string of candied haws strung with many different kinds of fruits. .

The foundation is still not solid. If it weren't for the rocks next to it to rely on, it really makes people suspect that it might collapse in the next second.

The door of the small building was closed tightly. Yan Jinping took two steps forward, and saw two wooden plaques nailed to the door, one on the left and one on the right.

Shanglian: If you have money, please come in and welcome visitors from all over the world.

The next couplet: Don't come to our store without money. We will not entertain you.

Horizontal batch - no credit.

The confrontation is basically unorganized, the tone is not friendly at all, but the meaning is conveyed very accurately.

Yan Jinping glanced at the couplet, then turned to Shen Lianxing and asked, "This is it?"

Shen Lianxing nodded.

Yan Jinping: "..."

He sincerely said with emotion: "This is very well written, I will write a picture for Linlang Pavilion tomorrow and hang it."

I haven't seen anyone yet, but just looking at the small building in front of me, I know that the people living here must have a lot of personality.

It's no wonder that the man named Shen Feishan wants to build his house in such a deep mountain and old forest. There may not be such good conditions elsewhere for him to toss about.

The doors and windows of the small building are closed, and there seems to be no one in the house.

Shen Lianxing took it for granted, stepped forward two steps, and pulled a simple hemp rope among the thousands of bits and pieces hanging from the depths of the eaves.

There was a melodious bell coming from the roof, echoing in the mountains and forests, it sounded similar to the Shen family's 'Spirit Awakening Bell'.

At this time, Yan Jinping was already very curious about the 'strange man' Shen Lianxing mentioned, and stood there waiting for a while expectantly, but no one came at all.

"It seems he's not here," Yan Jinping said.

The bell is not loud, but it has a strong penetrating power. If you still haven't heard it, it can only mean that the other party is indeed not in this mountain now.

Shen Lianxing: "...Not necessarily, you come with me."

He had been here many times before, and he knew this place very well. Seeing that there was no response after the bell was rung, he led Yan Jinping around the small building.

Behind the small building is a mountain rock, only the upper part is against the rock wall, there is still a distance between the lower two sections of the house and the mountain, a hole has been dug out of the mountain, but it is not deep, and the bottom can be seen at a glance.

There is only a wooden table in the hole, and a bed made of simple planks and a few stones. The bedding is messy, with tongs and wooden blocks scattered on it.

Judging from this posture, it seems that the owner will still sleep with his arms around these things at night.

Standing in front of the table was an old man with his back facing them. He was not tall, his back was slightly bent, his head was lowered, and he didn't know what he was doing.

Shen Lianxing walked slowly behind the old man.

The old man was still buried in his head, he didn't notice the movement behind him at all, he just focused on holding the things in his hands and studied them vigorously.

This is the person they are looking for on this trip, Shen Feishan.

Shen Feishan and Shen Yuansi are of the same generation, they are not young, and there is no hair on the top of their heads, only the white hair around it is a little sparse.The middle is very smooth, and even the skin color is a circle darker than the side. It must have been bald for a long time and was tanned by the sun.

Although his hair volume is miserable, he has a big beard, fluffed up flamboyantly, the curly, fluffy and white hair looks like a ball of cotton sticking to his face, his whole head seems to be artificially turned upside down , the chin is the top of the head, and the forehead is the chin.

When I got closer, I realized that what he was holding was a wooden hand—but unlike Shen Lianxing's arm, this hand was very rough, and it could barely be seen that it was in the shape of a hand, and it also had joints. There are a lot of wires and parts, completely unorganized, you put me on the table to pester you, and put them on the table indiscriminately.

Shen Feishan was still muttering to himself: "No. 12 failed attempts..."

"Tsk, what's the reason? Everything that can be changed has already been changed, it shouldn't be."

He has been studying this thing for more than 30 days. He has drawn a lot of drawings and made twelve samples, but it still doesn't work as he expected.

The goal was always unable to be achieved, Shen Feishan was quite depressed, poked the palm of the wooden hand twice with a sad face, and muttered sadly: "——What went wrong, why can't I move?"

Shen Lianxing was elusive, stuck his head out from behind him, and silently examined the messy lines for a while.

After a while, he suddenly said: "It's stuck, why don't you change the bearing near the knuckle of the left index finger to a smaller size, and then reverse the position of the two springs over there, and grind it round here and try again?"

Shen Feishan was concentrating, when he heard a voice behind him, he was startled, cursed loudly, bounced to the side, his movements were very quick, it was impossible to tell that he was actually very old.

Shen Lianxing looked as usual, straightened his waist, and greeted with a smile: "Long time no see."

Shen Feishan: "..."

The old man finally calmed down and saw who was coming. Immediately, he cursed again, blew his beard and stared angrily and said angrily, "When did you come? Why didn't you tell me in advance to scare me!"

"It's early." Shen Lianxing shrugged nonchalantly, "Even the wake-up bell rang, but you didn't hear it, so of course we had no choice but to come to you in person."

This was not the first time. Shen Lianxing came to him five times, and three times Shen Feishan was so busy here that he couldn't hear the outside world. The two of them had long been accustomed to it and communicated very naturally.

Shen Feishan talked nonsense with him without delaying the movement of his hands. With his beard flying, he quickly adjusted the position of the parts on the wooden hand according to Shen Lianxing's instructions. In the end, he didn't know which line was connected correctly, and the five fingers seemed to be alive. The same, clenched and loosened for a while, and then fell silent together.

Shen Lianxing probed his head: "It's done?"

Shen Feishan: "..."

He glared at Shen Lianxing, grudgingly snorted, and said awkwardly: "That's why I don't like geniuses like you..."

Shen Lianxing didn't think it was disobedient, and he should listen to his complaints as gratitude: "You're welcome."

Shen Feishan couldn't be bothered to talk to him. Only then did he see Yan Jinping standing next to him, raised his eyebrows, and asked directly, "Are you together?"

Yan Jinping put his hands in his sleeves, and was looking at this small and peculiar workshop with great interest. At this moment, when Shen Feishan mentioned him, he smiled and said: "My dear Yan Jinping, I have admired your name for a long time, it is a pleasure to meet you—what are you doing?" Woolen cloth?"

Since Shen Lianxing could admit to Shen Feishan, there must be something special about him.Although the wooden hand does not look very delicate, maybe it is of great use?

You can't judge a person by its appearance... take the organ's hand.

"Ah, you say this."

As soon as he talked about his own works, Shen Feishan immediately put other topics behind him.He touched the fingers of the wooden hand proudly, took out a walnut from the pocket of his apron, stuffed it into the wooden hand, and announced, "Look."

There is a small trapdoor that can be flipped on the palm of the hand. As soon as the walnut falls into the hand, the trapdoor is triggered immediately.The small door was opened, revealing the first switch. Walnut smashed it, and the fingers reacted immediately, tightening like a clamp.

There are springs under the fingers, and the material is also hardwood covered with copper.Flick it with great force. Five fingers tightly wrapped the walnut inside, and then only heard a very unlucky 'click', and the palm slowly opened, revealing the walnut inside...

The walnuts have been broken into many small pieces, and the shells and flesh are falling on the table one after another, just like sawdust chiseled off during carpentry.

"Automatically open walnuts." The old man happily introduced, "How is it?"

Yan Jinping: "..."

The well-informed Boss Yan was finally shocked for a while. The shock was so great that he couldn't comment on this thing for a while.

He was silent, and subconsciously thought of something else, but after all, it was the first time he saw Shen Feishan, and the two of them were still unfamiliar, so he endured and endured, and finally held back, forced a smile, and closed his mouth tightly. , decided that it would be better not to speak for now.

I was afraid that the old man's self-confidence would be hit by opening his mouth. It's not easy for him to be quite old.

"...Shen Feishan."

Yan Jinping held back, but Shen Lianxing wanted to go with him.He and Shen Feishan usually like to tear each other down, but at this time they asked unceremoniously, "Do you know that there is something called a mousetrap in this world? What's the difference between your thing and a mousetrap?"

Shen Feishan raised his head when he heard the words, he was shorter than Shen Lianxing, he twitched his beard when he spoke, and said with a frown, "It's not the same at all!"

Shen Lianxing: "What's the difference?"

Shen Feishan spoke confidently: "The uses are different!"

The mousetrap catches a mouse, but what he catches is a walnut, how can it be compared?

Shen Lianxing: "...OK."

He has known Shen Feishan for many years, and he knows that it is completely pointless to argue with him at this time. This old man is always serious about such inexplicable things, and it is just a waste of time to dwell on this topic.

It's better to get to the point quickly.

The author says:

Shen Feishan: Isn't this all coming in handy!

Yan Jinping: I understand, you made a bunch of instruments of torture.

Shen Lianxing: Because I always come here, I have already gotten used to it.jpg
