"Then tonight." Qin Zhaojian said, getting up to leave, "I'll call my third grandfather first, and I will come to the dormitory to find you at 05:30, and you can sleep again. Heh, tonight Stop playing online games."

It turned out that when Qin Zhaojian saw Xie Lang lying on the bed earlier, he thought it was because it was too late to play games at night.

After seeing off Qin Zhaojian, Xie Lang first called Ran Xixi and asked about her progress.Because Xue Tao's clue was broken, the police station had no way to track down the information about Wei Dao and the knife, but Ran Xixi was appreciated by the superiors for catching thieves and destroying criminals' dens.

But for Xie Lang, this is not good news, because Wei Dao is likely to arrange a new round of attacks.

Wei Dao is in the dark, Xie Lang is in the light, but this has given Wei Dao an absolute advantage, unless Xie Lang can catch Wei Dao's painful foot.

But in school, Xie Lang still felt relatively safe, so Xie Lang agreed to Qin Zhaojian.

With a little doubt, Xie Lang and Qin Zhaojian arrived at the teacher's apartment at around five o'clock in the afternoon.

Qin Zhe lived on the first floor, and a small garden was built in front of the door. At this time, the chrysanthemums in the courtyard were in full bloom, which was pleasing to the eye.

"Please come in quickly, don't be polite." Qin Zhe was already waiting at the door at this time, and said to Xie Lang with a smile.

"This is a little thing I made, please teach Professor Qin." Xie Lang handed Qin Zhe a small gift he had prepared.

"Why are you so polite, just be casual." Qin Zhe said, letting Xie Lang and Qin Zhaojian into the room.

Qin Zhe is worthy of being a professor of the history department. The decoration and furnishings of the room are very retro. In addition, some ancient collections placed in the room make the whole room full of vicissitudes of history.

"Wow!~" As soon as he entered the room, he heard Qin Zhaojian exclaim, and then saw him rushing to the front of the dining table, "Third Grandpa, how did you get such a big table of vegetables?"

The dining table was indeed full of dishes, melons and fruits. It was a sumptuous dinner. No wonder Qin Zhaojian was so surprised.

"How can I cook so many dishes? I hired a chef temporarily." Qin Zhe said simply, "Come on, let's chat while eating."

During the meal, Qin Zhe and Xie Lang chatted a lot about study, life and other issues, which made Xie Lang feel that Qin Zhe not only has a high academic accomplishment, but also is very approachable, which quickly shortened the distance between the two.

In contrast, Qin Zhaojian felt a little left out.

However, although Qin Zhe was very hospitable, Xie Lang was still a little puzzled, because he still didn't know the purpose of Qin Zhe's invitation to come.

After the meal, the three of them came to the living room to drink tea, and then Qin Zhe took out the small gift Xie Lang gave him from the paper bag, and began to watch it carefully.

It was a small black and exquisite wooden pagoda, only half the size of a palm. The wooden pagoda had seven floors in total, but the height was less than ten centimeters. , it seems that it is more than just a handicraft.

"Xie Lang, the thing you sent is made of ebony, and it is very valuable. I think it is too much." Qin Zhe said.

From Xie Lang's clothes, Qin Zhe could tell that his family was not very rich, and Xie Lang gave him such a valuable thing, which made Qin Zhe feel a little unacceptable.

"I made this myself. With some thought, Professor Qin is welcome." Xie Lang said.

Qin Zhe hesitated for a moment, and suddenly remembered that with Xie Lang's craftsmanship, it is not difficult to make such a thing, so he stopped being polite and said: "I saw that the middle of this tower is hollowed out, and there seems to be a rotating shaft between each floor. Is it right?" Is there any other use for it?"

Xie Lang said with a smile: "Professor Qin's guess is correct. This is called Qiqiao Linglong Pagoda. It has seven floors in total and has seven different uses. For example, if you turn the first floor, turn the pattern to the opposite position from the other six floors." Above, there will be a small hole on the top of the tower. You see, this small hole is actually used to shake the ashes, and can be used as an ashtray. Because there are small ventilation holes in the seven-story tower below, there will be weak wind Pour it through the small hole so that it doesn't automatically suck the soot into the tower and it doesn't get scattered around."

Xie Lang said as he followed suit, and a small hole really appeared on the top of the Qiqiao Linglong Pagoda.

In fact, the original purpose of this Qiqiao Linglong Tower was an ashtray, and it was created by Grandpa Xie Lang, but after Xie Lang improved it, it became a Qiqiao Tower with seven different uses.

Listening to Xie Lang's explanation, Qin Zhe nodded slowly, and even Qin Zhaojian became interested, and said, "It's really an interesting thing, but it's just such a beautiful tower, it's too wasteful to shake the soot, isn't it? And it’s not good if it’s burned by the cigarette butts. By the way, after the soot is inhaled, how can I pour it out?”

"I'm really ignorant. This kind of material has been specially treated. Even if you put it on the fire, it can only be slowly carbonized, and it cannot be burned into a pile of ashes. This is not ordinary firewood." Qin Zhe said to the firewood. Qin Zhaojian said, and the latter stuck out his tongue at him.

Xie Lang nodded, and continued: "There is a rotating shaft under here. After twisting it slightly, the bottom will open, and soot and so on can be poured out. In addition, the second layer is filled with spices, which can be used as incense sticks. The purpose of the pouch; the other layers also have some small uses. "

"This is very good. It can be used as an ornament here, and it has so many uses. I think it's much better than those rigid sculptures. What's the point of just looking at useless things?" Qin Zhaojian Said, unscrewed the second layer, and smelled a very strange and comfortable fragrance.

Although the fragrance has no shape, it can feel like it flows in the air, which is refreshing.

"Liuxiang?" Qin Zhe slightly exclaimed.

"Professor Qin also knows this spice?" Xie Lang asked.

Qin Zhe nodded slightly, and said, "It's one of the best spices, if it's hidden, it flows with the wind."

In fact, it is also a very expensive spice. Qin Zhe has some doubts that Xie Lang's family situation seems to be as difficult as it seems.Because poor families, how can they give up using this kind of spice, not to mention that this kind of spice is not available through ordinary channels.

"Then what's the matter with this original lighter?" Qin Zhaojian opened another layer.

"There is a kind of red moss inside. After being squeezed and rubbed, it is easy to generate sparks, but it will not burn into an open flame."

"Xie Lang, you are really amazing, you can make such a wonderful thing." Qin Zhaojian praised, and then said to Qin Zhe, "Third Grandpa, please give me this thing, I really like it so much."

"Yes, but I also like it very much." Qin Zhe rejected Qin Zhaojian's request, and then said to Xie Lang, "By the way, Xie Lang, do you like Facebook?"

"I don't have much research on facial make-up, but I like the face-changing skills of Sichuan opera. I think Professor Qin must have a collection of this, so I'm going to see it." Xie Lang said.When he was a child, he often went to the theater with his grandfather, but he didn't understand the content of the play. He just found the movements of changing faces, breathing fire, and somersaulting very interesting.

"Then take a look, I'll play with this thing." Qin Zhaojian said, he didn't seem to be interested in Qin Zhe's facial makeup.

Xie Lang followed Qin Zhe to his study, and saw that the surrounding walls were covered with all kinds of facial makeup. Although Xie Lang didn't understand the culture of facial makeup, he could tell that these facial makeups were high-quality goods.It can be seen from this that Qin Zhe is not only a collection, but also likes to study facial makeup very much, otherwise he would not have hung the entire wall of the study.

Xie Lang originally just took a look at it with an attitude of admiration, but soon he found that he seemed to be attracted by some of these things. In the facial makeup on the surrounding walls, whether it is the color, the pattern, or the strokes , there is a kind of unexplainable thing contained in it.

Looking at them one by one, Xie Lang got more and more involved.

After a long time, Qin Zhe asked, "How?"

"It turns out that a face has so many changes." Xie Lang sighed. [17K literature network, city channel hot reading...]

Xie Lang has vaguely grasped the essence of the craftsmanship of this kind of facial make-up. Although he doesn't know who made it, he must be very good at pouring so many things into these facial make-ups. It's a pity that time It was too short, and Xie Lang had no time to comprehend it carefully.

A little appreciation appeared on Qin Zhe's face, and he said, "It's getting late, let's go back to the dormitory and rest, come over tomorrow, I see you're having fun, I just have a chat with you tomorrow."

"Thank you, Professor Qin, oops, it's almost eleven o'clock." Xie Lang realized that the time had passed so quickly, and he stayed in Qin Zhe's study for almost three hours before he knew it.

Xie Lang came to the living room, ready to ask Qin Zhaojian to leave together, but found that Qin Zhaojian had already left.

"This little guy actually took away the Qiqiao Linglong Pagoda you gave me. It's really hateful." Qin Zhe sullenly said.
