Chapter 80: Smash
He returned to the room with a jade box, put it on the table, and watched quietly.
Chen Tang knew in his heart that this thing should be given to Hu Buhui.
Hu Buhui's personality is completely opposite to Hu Buxi. He is quiet and fussy. When she was teaching in the past, she also gave her full respect.
The main reason for going to Fushan to read is the teachings promised by Taoist Fusheng. Therefore, Chen Tang believed that even if his reading sound could help the other party, it did not mean that Hu Buhui owed him anything.
However, many things are not as simple as paying off one owed one.
If it can be that simple, it will be better.
After thinking about it, Chen Tang reached out to lift the lid of the jade box and saw what was inside - he was not worried about fraud or something inside, because it was completely unnecessary.
A inkstone lies quietly inside.
The body is pure and flawless, but not crystal clear. The material is very pure and does not mix with any variegated colors. It is like a piece of mutton fat solidified.
This is an inkstone made of beautiful jade carvings.
The typical shape of a dustpan is the shape on the inkstone head, and a strange beast is carved, which looks a bit like a frog, entrenched on it, with a very lively appearance, with its open mouth facing the center of the inkstone.
The most important thing for scholars is the four treasures of the study, and the inkstone is one of the four treasures.
Chen Tang knew about inkstones, but he rarely heard of them made of jade, mostly made of strange stones, tiles and porcelain.
After all, inkstones are different from paperweights and are by no means decorative. They pay more attention to functionality, quickly insert ink and finely produce ink, which can be called a treasure.
I took out the beautiful jade inkstone from the box, and the touch was delicate and quite good, and there was a gentle feeling, as if this jade material was flesh and blood.
Look carefully and see a poem engraved on the edge of the inkstone, on the left and right sides: The moon is bright in the sea and the pearls have tears; the sun is warm in the blue field, jade produces smoke.
Chen Tang suddenly laughed.
Although Hu Buhui did not understand the allusions used in the poem, it has to be said that it is quite appropriate to carve it on this beautiful jade inkstone.
Or in other words, in the Yin Kingdom, there really is a place like Lantian that can produce beautiful jade?
After appreciating the appearance, Chen Tang immediately brought a piece of ink ingot and tested it.
This ink ingot was bought at Sibaozhai. It is considered medium-quality, not inferior ink, but it is not very good.
After a few grinding, the effect was quickly noticed. The ink was inserted very quickly, at least half faster than the inkstone that Chen Tang originally used; then the ink ground was fine and refined, without any residue, and was shiny and shiny.
When I smelled it, there was a faint fragrance!
This situation was something that I didn't have before. It could not be the fragrance brought by the ink ingot itself, but it can only be attributed to this beautiful jade inkstone.
Chen Tang couldn't help but immediately dip his pen ink and write.
The flowing clouds and water seem to be much smoother. The ink falls on the paper and seems to take root, very full, condensed but not dispersed.
Chen Tang continued to conduct the next test and put the inkstone containing ink on the windowsill. After a while, he looked again. He saw that the ink in the ink pond was still rippling, without any sign of solidification. If he had changed to an ordinary inkstone, he would be afraid that the ink would become hard and he could not write in a moment.
Finally, Chen Tang poured out the ink and used water to clean the inkstone. The water flowed through it was as smooth as a mirror, leaving no trace of ink, and it looked like new and spotless.
"Good inkstone!"
Chen Tang couldn't help but exclaim.
If the pen holder is the sword of a scholar, then the inkstone is the horse of a hero. Hu Buhui chose this item to give it, he was really thoughtful and impeccable.
Chen Tang was not a pretentious person. After receiving this gift, he was open-minded and even gave the inkstone a name called: Frog Inkstone!
...
When waiting for the results to be released, they are always nervous and bored. The crowds of people are not in the mood to go out for a trip, and they are like prisoners waiting for the verdict, staying at home honestly.
Chen Tang was not used to living such a life, so he thought that he would take this opportunity to complete the moves of "Liuhe Thunder Hand".
By the way, I found some ways to make money - I have spent a lot of money recently and I really need new inputs.
So he used the same trick again and told Su Ling that he would go out to relax.
Su Ling is very cheating, without any suspicion, she just repeatedly reminds Chen Tang to wear warm clothes and eat enough, and not to go too far...
He was earnest and earnest, which made Chen Tang feel a little guilty.
This time he went out, he had a clear purpose, prepared himself well, and had no need to carry things like books and boxes, but he carried a small bag. After walking out of Hanmo Street, he found a place without a single person, and changed into Wuji's face in a familiar way, and strided towards the Sheng Martial Arts Hall.
"Hey, Senior Wuji!"
Fu Mingjin, the eldest disciple of Shengwu Pavilion, immediately recognized him and was very surprised.
"Brother Fu, why is it a bit deserted in the martial arts hall today? The disciples didn't come to practice boxing?"
Chen Tang looked at the martial arts hall and noticed some clues.
Fu Mingjin smiled bitterly on his face: "It's hard to say anything, hey, my master is talking about seniors very much."
Chen Tang asked: "Oh, where is the old owner?"
When Fu Mingjin took him to see Lishan, Chen Tang was stunned. Seeing the old restaurant owner lying on the bed, his face was pale and coughing, the room was filled with the smell of medicinal herbs.
How long has it been separated? Why is it so sick?
When Li Shan saw him, he showed joy and struggled to get up to greet him.
Chen Tang hurried forward and held him down: "The old owner of the museum doesn't have to be too polite."
Li Shan sighed: "I'm old and the patient is outbreaking, just like a mountain of fallen, I'm afraid there will be no more time."
Chen Tang heard this and didn't know what to say.
Most foreign martial artists are like this. When they were young, they were full of fists and feet, and were vigorous and powerful. However, once they were young, they were plagued by patients and few people lived longevity. Only by breaking through to the internal state, turning vigorously into force, slowly removing blood stasis, and eliminating hidden diseases can we turn the world around and nourish our bodies again.
It’s just that the internal state is not easy?
It was a coincidence that Chen Tang made friends with two inner families, Mr. Zhao San and Zhan Yangchun.
Li Shan looked at him and asked, "Senior, I wonder what's wrong with me?"
Chen Tangyixiao: "I have been practicing boxing in seclusion a few days ago. Today I came out and took a look."
Li Shan sighed: "If you come two days late, you will probably not be able to see this Shengwu Pavilion."
"Oh, why is this?"
Chen Tang asked.
Li Shan said: "I wonder if you have ever heard of the Hutou Gang."
"I heard a little bit, and I heard that it is a local domineering, black and white, and it is very fierce."
Chen Tang said slowly.
"More than just being fierce?"
Li Shan said indignantly: "It's like a wolf or a tiger, and he eats people without spitting bones. Three days ago, the Tiger Head Gang suddenly came to my Shengwu Pavilion and asked me to hand over the secret book of "The Thunder Mason". I was unwilling to do so. He told me that it took three days to stop, and if I don't obey, I will remove my Shengwu Pavilion from Panzhou and erase it."
Chen Tang asked: "How can the old owner deal with it?"
Li Shan said: "Although this "Thunder Maul" is not a powerful martial arts, it is the foundation for us to settle down. I will definitely not hand it over. I originally wanted to dismiss the apprentice and leave Panzhou, but I was not very proud and bedridden, so it was difficult to travel a long distance, so..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a crackling sound of thrashing outside.
