mirror

Cun Xin was anxious, and when he saw the signboard with the word "Dang" at the entrance of the street, he had already made up his mind.The pawnbroker saw that the woman in the yellow shirt took out an ancient mirror, more than eight inches in diameter, the nose of the mirror was like a crouching unicorn, surrounded by jade carvings and auspicious beasts, there were eight trigrams on the outside, and there were inscriptions on the twelve celestial positions outside the hexagram. , It looks like official script but not official script, seal script is not seal script, the stippling is perfect, but I don't know what is written, so I don't dare to specialize at the moment, so I asked the shopkeeper to come out and check it.The shopkeeper picked up the precious mirror and looked at the sun, only to see that the calligraphy and paintings on his back seemed to be able to penetrate into the shadow, exactly.He raised his hand and tapped the side of the mirror lightly, the sound was melodious and clear, uninterrupted, he knew that he had encountered a rare treasure, but he didn't show it on his face, he only squinted his eyes and asked Cun Xin: "It's not worth anything, it's just a rhombic mirror used by ordinary women. . How much do you want to be?"

Cun Xin secretly scolded the shopkeeper for being treacherous, and had no choice but to wait for the silver envoy, so she had to say: "500 taels, I want cash."

The shopkeeper was overjoyed in his heart, and his face remained calm, "How can you get so much?" He held the mirror tightly, and stroked the cold edge of the bronze mirror with his fingers, and he could even smell the copper coins at the tip of his nose.

Cun Xin was annoyed, "Because I came out in a hurry, I didn't bring any money. Now I'm waiting for the money to be used. I have no choice but to send you the family heirloom temporarily. When I have the money, I will come to redeem it immediately. Who would have thought that you, a profiteer, set prices on the ground. There are many pawnshops in the city. That's right, I won't sell it!" After saying that, he grabbed the mirror with his hands, turned around and left.

"Hey, girl, don't go away!" The shopkeeper hurriedly chased out of the counter, stopped Cun Xin and said, "Girl, I think you are also from a wealthy family, and you are definitely not like those rambunctious dudes who steal property to change money."He had a bitter look on his face, as if he had a huge Coptis chinensis in his mouth, he frowned and said: "Come on, I just want to make a good relationship, and I will give you 500 taels!"

Cun Xin made a bet with the buddy at the moment, and the pawn ticket stated that the current period would be one month, and the interest would be five cents.The shopkeeper put away the mirror, with a smile on his face, exchanged the silver and handed it to Cun Xin with both hands, respectfully sent her out, and said at the door: "Miss, go slowly, if you get the silver, come and redeem it as soon as possible, if it is later, This mirror is cheaper than a villain."

Cun Xin gritted her teeth and said "rogue", hurriedly went to the archway to throw the silver at Qiao Er, bought another pearl, bought a thin leather coffin, and accompanied the girl Xiaoshan to bury her father without mentioning it.

When something happened, Xiaoshan asked Cun Xin what to do.At this moment, Cun Xin is in a hurry to go back to Xihai to discuss the matter of the Minjiang Dragon King with her elder brother. She is also thinking about getting money to redeem the pawn, and she is also worried about Xiaoshan being alone here with no one to take care of her.She has always been a person who uses her strength but does not use her heart, and she is also anxious and has no clue for a while--that jade mirror is the most precious treasure of the West Sea, and it must not be missed.The Minjiang Dragon King has been missing for half a day, and this is no longer a problem that the three princesses of the West Sea can solve alone.But this Xiaoshan is only five or six years old, if she is left alone outside the city, it is hard to guarantee that there will be no bad people who will have another heart.Fortunately, Xiaoshan mentioned that her neighbor, Mama Wang, could take her in on her behalf, so Cun Xin took her hand and they came to the small village together.

Mother Wang was not at home, only her 22-year-old only son Cheng Jiao was studying under the window.When Cun Xin looked at it, although the young man was thin, he was still pretty.It's just that Wang's mother is not here, but it's hard for Cun Xin to leave Xiao Shan here alone.Cheng Jiao was quite polite, and immediately boiled water and made tea, and offered him a cup of tea.

Cun Xin took the tea, but could only smell the tangy aroma, but couldn't tell what kind of tea soup it was.I had no choice but to say thank you, put aside the tea foam, and took a sip.Suddenly, Xiaoshan and Chengjiao in front of her were spinning around out of thin air, she was surprised, she realized that she was on the right track, and when she was about to get up, her vision was already dark, and Yushan collapsed beyond support.

Cun Xin probably had been sitting on her knees for a long time, and her legs were a little numb. As soon as she moved, Yang Jian handed over a very delicate voucher, and she also sat down quietly.After taking a sip of tea, he said again: "When I woke up, I had already changed into the appearance of a dragon."

Yang Jian closed the ink fan, tapped the palm of his hand with the fan bone, thought for a while before saying: "Have you seen Xiaoshan after you woke up?" Cun Xin shook her head, "I just woke up, and I don't know that I have changed. When I was looking for Xiaoshan, I lifted my feet and found that I had changed my boots and my clothes were wrong. I was shocked and looked around, only to find that the whole village was completely deserted, and even Xiaoshan was gone."

Cun Xin propped herself up on a few feet, stretched out her hand to grab Yang Jian's sleeve and said, "Can you please use your heavenly eyes to find out the origin of my physical body. If there are any clues, we can also find the demon as soon as possible."

Yang Jian held the teacup with the other hand, rubbed the rim with his thumb, and said slowly: "I have just practiced my skills, and I really can't see anything strange. This is the body of a mortal man, without the root of spiritual awareness, and also the body of a human being." There is no trace of evil spirit."

"Then, wouldn't I..." Cun Xin stood up, moving so quickly that she almost knocked over the tea stove, she wringed her fingers and asked, "If I can't find that person, I'll be like this all my life , how good is that?" Her tone was crying: "I don't want this man's stinky skin!"

Yang Jian also stood up, stretched out his hand to cover Cun Xin's tense white knuckles, and comforted him: "In my opinion, there is no serious problem for a while." Cun Xin shook off his hand and said bitterly: "It's not that you've been replaced, you're naturally fine. Besides..." She became more and more anxious, "Who knows what he's going to do with my body?!"

Yang Jian pondered and said: "It took a lot of thinking. What can he do if he changed your body?" He thought for a while, and then said: "You stay here, I will go to Minshan to see That well."

Cun Xin said: "I'll go with you!" But Yang Jian smiled and said: "That's not necessary, you are now a mortal body, and you can't ride the clouds if you are heavy, so I will save time by going alone." Cun Xin replied, she cast a vertical golden light, but it disappeared out of thin air.

Cun Xin fell to his feet, but there was nothing he could do.When he turned his head and saw Xiaotian Quan running up, he said angrily, "Your good master, you left me to investigate the case. If you don't go with him, what are you doing?" It was kind, and said, "Princess, don't worry, the master sent me a voice transmission before leaving, and ordered me to serve the princess well, so don't wrong you."

"Hmph, I don't know whether I'm afraid you'll wrong me, or I'm afraid I'll wrong you." Although Cun Xin was reluctant, but in the dojo of others, he said, "Don't reach out to hit the Laughing Man", so she had to sit down again. , Fiddle with the tea set. "Is that tea good just now?" She looked at Xiao Tiangou who was sitting cross-legged on the opposite side, "Shall I make some more for you?"

Xiaotiangou responded with a rare and honest "yes", and said: "tea is good tea, but the master likes to drink tea, so I'll let it go. I'll show my respect after drinking it. If you have time, I will invite the princess to cook a bowl of bones." Give me the soup."

Cun Xin was angry and funny, and said angrily, "You stupid dog, you have been with your master for thousands of years, and you have never learned any elegance!" Xiao Tianquan shook his head nonchalantly, "What do you do after learning Fengya? , am I not a dog anymore?"

"You're honest." Cun Xin smiled and stood up, "Let's go, is there a kitchen here? Let's make soup!" The dog got up when he heard the word "soup", and walked to the front to lead the way.There is no temple in Erlang Temple, only a dozen grass-headed gods temporarily serve as laborers.Although the immortal bones have been cultivated long ago, they have not stopped cooking. Firstly, they are reluctant to eat and drink. Secondly, since they are in the world, they blindly do not eat the fireworks of the world, and they are easy to attract suspicion. Therefore, not only is there a kitchen in this temple, but also all kinds of meat and fish. Everything is available.

Cun Xin picked out a good stick bone, washed it clean, and threw it into the soup pot to boil.Turning around, he saw Xiao Tiangou staring at the cauldron with a salivating face, then he smiled and said: "It will take two or three hours to get out of the pot, you won't starve to death if you take a bite late, what's the hurry?" The dog licked his lips and said "Third princess, you don't know. Since I went to heaven, the master has been eating grains. Except for the banquet called by your majesty, I don't eat a grain of rice. I also cut off meat."

Cun Xin sighed, unexpectedly their master and servant's diet was so simple.People in the world only know that the dragon family loves money, but they don't know that the dragon family also pays special attention to wealth.When Cun Xin was in Xihai, every time he ate meals, there were dozens of dishes, all over the world, three worlds and nine continents, dry or fresh, meat or vegetarian, all kinds of wine, food, fruit and vegetables in the world were all lined up, lest there be anything missing. Own.When it came to Yang's mansion, although Yang Jian was unwilling to be extravagant, he would not be too frugal for three meals a day. They still tried to find fresh and delicious food in different ways, so much so that the Meishan brothers once joked and said that the dishes of the third princess were even written. If you order a running water card to eat, 360 days, you can also have the same taste every day.

After a while, the soup pot boiled, and Cun Xin picked up the long spoon by the stove, and gently skimmed off the foam on the soup surface. The steam was dense and moistened her eyes.Xiaotiangou came up to her, looked at her flatteringly and said: "Third Princess, I will watch the fire for you, you go and rest for a while. You are a mortal anyway, so you can't be tired."

Cun Xin patted him on the head, and said with a smile: "For a bowl of soup, I am not used to being so nice to me." Xiao Tiangou chuckled: "Actually, when I think about it later, the third princess treats me as well." It's not bad, even though he scolded me and tied me up, he never forgot to give me soup." The dog seemed to remember the deliciousness of bone soup, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "Third Princess, Xin Tiantiao can't help getting married now, you If you are so kind to the master, how about..." He rubbed his nose, "You should come back."

Cun Xin let go of her hand, and the spoon fell into the soup pot. When she reached out to scoop it up, she touched the side of the pot again, and she almost jumped up because it was so hot.It was still Xiao Tianquan who woke up and handed over a pair of chopsticks, Cun Xin managed to regain his composure, picked up the spoon from the soup pot, washed it and put it aside.She found a young couple to sit down, hugged her knees, buried her head in them for a while, and suddenly said sullenly: "Didn't you always want your master to marry Chang'e, why are you thinking of me again?"

Xiaotiangou sat on the ground beside her, and said with a long breath: "I also thought that the master and Fairy Chang'e were good, and thought that if the rules of heaven were changed, the third sister would be saved, and the master would naturally embrace the beauty. That's not the case." Xin Tiantiao was born, and the whole world celebrated together, even Yao Chi held his nose and invited the gods and Buddhas to a banquet several times.During this period, the Queen Mother Jade Emperor also hinted several times that the Judiciary God has made great achievements in the Three Realms, but he just doesn't know how to reward him.But Yang Jian didn't seem to hear about it, saying that Tiantiao was cast by the Nuwa Empress ten thousand years ago, and that his glory and the incident were just a coincidence, so how dare he covet the heaven's merits for himself and try to confer rewards in vain.The story of Chang'e and Yang Jian was well known in the three worlds, but now the two of them are indifferent on the surface, and their exchanges and social relations do not seem to be particularly close to others. As time goes by, no one mentions it anymore.

Xiao Tianquan shrugged his shoulders, pouted his lips and said: "The last time the third sister came, she asked the master what she was thinking. The master kept silent at first, but then asked in a hurry. The third sister is gone." He poked Cun Xin, "What do you think is going on in the master's mind? The master and the third sister have been brothers and sisters for 3000 years, and they have always had a good conversation. This is the first time I saw him get angry and kick someone out. of."

Cun Xin curled her lips: "Your master is a clam. If he doesn't open his mouth, no one should know what he thinks." She raised her hand and slapped Xiao Tiangou's paw, "Don't ask me, I want to know what's on his mind. It won’t be driven out of Guanjiangkou by him.”

Xiao Tiangou licked his palms, seeing Cun Xin's disgusted face, realized that he was still a human body at the moment, so he rubbed his hands on the lapel of his clothes again, and said, "I secretly think so, isn't the master still thinking about the third princess? "Cun Xin stood up, jumped far away, pointed at the roaring dog and said: "Your dog's paw, if you don't wash it clean, don't touch my bowl!" She looked at her hand, the outline was well-defined and the knuckles were prominent , obviously looking like a man, and said dejectedly: "Look at my current skin, your master is willing to take it, that's why the phlegm has fascinated the mind."

The Xiaotian dog squatted on the ground, and said nonchalantly: "You are just a soul living in it temporarily. With my master here, is it possible that you will still be a man for the rest of your life? Besides," he scratched behind his ear, " My master has celestial eyes, and what he sees is the primordial spirit, who do you think he sees?"

Before he finished speaking, a grass-headed god cupped his hands in front of the door, saying that the land here came to worship, and the second master was not at home, so naturally he asked Lord Dog King to go and have a look.Xiao Tianquan got up and followed him, leaving Cun Xin stunned there, full of words, not knowing who to listen to.
