Xiao Shijiro

Chapter 36
The quilts on the bed are all silk, smooth and brand new, embroidered with all kinds of beautiful flowers, so delicate and vivid.

They also wore smooth and brand new silk robes, and the embroidery on the silk robes was as delicate and gorgeous as those on the quilts.

Xiao Shishilang suddenly found himself in a strange place.

Is this a dream?
In fact, there are no too bizarre furnishings in the room, but everything is exquisite to the extreme, even exaggeratedly exquisite.

Even a lampstand with candles is covered with crystal pearls and gemstones of seven colors, and the tassels on the brocade tent are actually made of gold thread.

But Xiao Shishilang knew that the owner of this place was by no means an upstart.

Because everything is beautifully selected, so many things are placed together, and it doesn't feel crowded or tacky, and it seems to be even harmonious.

Nouveau riche will never have such a vision.

Even if it was a dream, it was a strange and beautiful dream.

It's a pity that Xiao Shishilang is not a dreamer.

He slipped out of bed quietly, without disturbing Shen Bijun—he didn't want Shen Bijun to wake up and find him sleeping next to him, and he didn't want to do anything to embarrass her.

The floor was covered with thick and soft Persian felt.

Xiao Shishilang walked across the room barefoot.

He could have walked this distance in a blink of an eye, but now he walked for a long time. Every step he took, the bones of his whole body seemed to be scattered.

But his injury has undoubtedly healed a lot, otherwise he wouldn't be able to take a single step at all.

How could his injury suddenly heal so much?
Is it because of sleeping?Or was it because someone had healed him?
Who is the owner here?
Why save him?

There are still many problems, but he is not in a hurry to think about them.

Because he knew it was useless to rush.

On the opposite side was a door, a carved door with gold rings.

The door is hidden.

Pushing open the door, Xiao Shishilang walked into a wonderland even stranger than a dream!
He has never experienced in this life, and will never imagine a wonderland!
This room is larger than the previous one, but there is only one table in the room.

A table almost takes up the whole room.

There was also a house on the table, a doll's house.

Even in children's dreams, there is no such exquisite doll house.

The whole house is built with real wood and bricks. The tiles are glazed tiles, which are exactly the same as those used in the imperial palace, but at least ten times smaller.

Surrounding the house is a large garden.

There are pines and bamboos, flowers and plants, small bridges, flowing water, rockery, pavilions and pavilions in the garden - there are even yellow dogs and white rabbits, cranes and reindeer among the flowers and trees.

The trees are green and the flowers are fragrant, but they are all ten times smaller than the real ones.

Although those reindeer and white rabbits are made of wood and stone, they are also lifelike, as if they will run to you as long as you wave your hand.

What Xiao Shishilang admired the most was the octagonal pavilion behind the Jiuqu Bridge, with vermilion columns and green tiles, and a game of broken chess was placed on the stone table. The two high-crowned old men who played chess seemed to be tired.

An old man in red clothes was fishing by the flowing water, his head was half tilted, his brows were half frowning, as if he was still thinking about the broken chess game.

Another green-robed old man was waving his feet beside him, holding the pair of double-beam blessing shoes he had just taken off in his hand, squinting at the old man in red with a smug smile.

In this game of chess, he obviously had a chance of winning.

Both of them are lifelike in shape, with the same eyebrows and eyebrows. The clothes and shoes on their bodies are also cut from extremely luxurious silk and satin, and they are cut to a perfect fit.

All of this is enough to make people dazzled and dazzled.

But that was nothing compared to that house.

There are 27 rooms in total before and after the house.

There are main halls, side halls, flower halls, bedrooms, guest rooms, warehouses, and even kitchens.

Looking in from the windows, the furnishings in each house can be seen clearly.

Everything in every room seemed to be real.

In the living room are carved rosewood chairs covered with brocade cushions.

There are calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, and the middle hall is a landscape, misty and rainy, with a chic and unrestrained mood. If you look carefully, the inscription, which is smaller than a fly's foot, is actually written by Wu Daozi.

Xiao Shishilang's favorite is still the couplet.

He often gets drunk without drinking, which is usually due to not reading.

What a mood!How free and easy!
In the hall, there were two people sitting upright, as if they were waiting for their master to receive them.

Two maidservants in green clothes came in through the curtain holding tea.

Even the two teacups, which are smaller than buttons, are made of real porcelain.

The maids had smiles on their faces, as if they didn't take these two guests very seriously, because they knew that their master was also very contemptuous of this guest.

The master also has high bedding in the bedroom at the back.

There were already four maids by the bed waiting for him to get up, one of them was holding a high crown of strange and ancient shape, the other was holding a yellow robe covered with gold, and the other was playing a fan.

Another person was squatting on the ground, brushing his boots.

The owner is not very old, with a white face and no beard, and his appearance seems to be extremely handsome.

Behind the bed, there is a beautiful woman in gauze, who is taking a pee, her brows are frowning slightly, she is so weak that she seems to have been rained and dewed last night, and the sweetness is also full of shameful pain.

The kitchen was busy, apparently preparing the master's breakfast.

Xiao Shishilang sighed, and murmured: "This man's fortune is really good."

There are people in every room, and they are all beautiful young girls.Some are playing the piano, some are copying scriptures, some are embroidering, some are dressing up, and some are still young.

Of the 27 rooms, only one was empty.

It was a corner room with a shaded corridor outside, walls full of books inside, and a burner of ambergris burning on the table.

The study room next to the incense burner is complete with four treasures, and there is an unfinished picture, which is a picture of looking at a sword with a lamp, and the brushwork is delicate. Although it has not been completed, the momentum is already extraordinary.

It seems that the owner here is still a master of both civil and military skills.

Xiao Shishilang is no longer a child, but facing such a doll house, he still couldn't help but be fascinated by it, almost wishing to shrink his body and play in it.

Only when he heard the groaning sound from behind did he realize that Shen Bijun had woken up at some point.

Shen Bijun's face was pale, without even a trace of blood.

But her eyes were also flashing with childlike joy.

She leaned against the door and looked at this doll's house, and she didn't feel crazy about it.

After a long time, she sighed and said, "It's such a beautiful house, if you can live in it for a few days, it must be fun."

Xiao Shishilang said with a smile: "It's a pity that no one has such great supernatural powers that can shrink us down."

Shen Bijun turned his head and stared at Xiao Shishilang. After a long time, he smiled and said, "None of us died."

Xiao Shishilang nodded slowly, focused on her and said, "None of us died."

Although this is just a very common sentence, when it comes out of their mouths, it does not know how much joy and gratitude it contains.

Human desires are the most difficult to satisfy.

But they seem to have nothing more to hope for as long as they are alive.

After a long time, Shen Bijun lowered his head and said, "You brought me here?"

Xiao Shishilang said: "When I woke up, I was already here."

Shen Bijun said: "You don't know what this place is?"

Xiao Shishilang said: "I don't know either."

Shen Bijun turned his head to look at the doll house again, and said, "I think the owner here must also be a strange person, and he must be very interesting."

Xiao Shishilang smiled and said, "If it weren't for a strange person, I wouldn't be able to do such a miracle."

Shen Bijun said: "But since he saved us, why didn't he come out to meet us?"

Xiao Shishilang hadn't answered yet, only a burst of silver bell-like laughter sounded from outside the door.

One of them smiled coquettishly and said, "It's because my master is afraid of disturbing the sane dreams of the Xian couple."

Shen Bijun's ears turned red when she heard the words "virtuous couple".

Others actually regarded them as husband and wife.

She just felt a mess in her heart, and she didn't know what it was like. She wanted to see Xiao Shishilang's expression, but she didn't have the courage.

With her head down, she didn't see the speaker coming in, but only smelled a faint fragrance.

Orchid-like aroma.

The person who came in was as elegant as an orchid.

She was wearing a pure white silk gown, her eyebrows were swept lightly, without makeup, her jet-black hair was casually tied up in a bun, and there was not a single piece of gold or jade on her body.

Her mouth is very big, when she is not smiling, she looks very strong, even a little cold, but when she smiles, she reveals those white jade-like teeth, it looks so soft and charming.

Her high cheekbones gave her face an indescribable charm.A charm that can captivate most men.

This woman could not be considered beautiful, but standing in this incomparably gorgeous room, she looked so refined, if not for Shen Bijun beside her, all the brilliance would have been taken away by her alone.

Although Shen Bijun didn't look at her, she was looking at Shen Bijun.

When a beautiful woman meets another even more beautiful woman, she always looks carefully from head to toe, up and down.

Women look at women, sometimes more carefully than men.

Then, she turned her head to look at Xiao Shishilang.

She is not the kind of woman who is often shy, but when she saw Xiao Shishilang's cat-like eyes, she still lowered her head involuntarily, with a three-point shyness and seven-point sweet smile, and said: "Concubine Susu, yes I came here specially to serve Mrs. Xian and his wife."

It is a "virtuous couple" again.

Shen Bijun lowered his head even lower, hoping Xiao Shishilang could explain.

But if Xiao Shishilang really explained, she might feel very disappointed again.

Xiao Shishilang only said indifferently: "I dare not be that."

Su Su said: "If you two need anything, just ask. If you have anything to ask, just ask me."

Xiao Shishilang said: "If I ask, will you say it?"

Susu pursed her lips and said with a smile: "As long as I know, I will tell you everything."

Xiao Shishilang said: "We are grateful to each other for saving, but we don't even know who saved us."

Su Su said: "That's our young master, when he went hunting after the rain, he accidentally found two of them."

She suddenly smiled again, and said: "My young master doesn't like to meddle in other people's business, but when he saw the two not only talented and beautiful, but also as deep as the ocean, even when they were dying and fainting, they still held hands tightly and couldn't bear to let go." ..."

Hearing this, Shen Bijun's face seemed to be burning.

Fortunately, Xiao Shishilang interrupted the conversation and said, "But I don't know the name of your young master?"

Su Su smiled and said: "His surname is Tian, ​​we are servants, we only dare to call him Mr. Tian, ​​how dare we ask his name?"

Xiao Shishilang said: "Heaven, the sky of heaven and earth?"

Su Su said: "Yes."

Xiao Shishilang said: "Is there such a surname?"

Su Su laughed and said: "A person has a first and last name, just to make others easy to address and distinguish. As long as you want, it doesn't matter what your last name is, does it?"

Xiao Shishilang stopped talking.

Su Su smiled sweeter, and said: "For example, if I ask two of you for your surnames, they may not be willing to tell me their real names, are they?"

Xiao Shishilang also laughed, and said, "I don't know if this Tian Gongzi is willing to see us?"

Su Su said: "Of course I would, but..."

Xiao Shishilang said, "Just what?"

Su Suyan said: "It's just that it's late at night, he's already asleep."

Only then did Xiao Shishilang realize two things.

There were no windows at all.

There is light because of copper lamps embedded in the walls.

Su Su said: "The young master knows that the two of you are not ordinary people, and your martial arts must be very high, so you have repeatedly told us not to neglect the two of you."

Xiao Shishilang said with a faint smile: "If martial arts were high, we wouldn't be so embarrassed."

Su Su said slowly: "You have suffered four internal injuries and two external injuries. Although the external injuries are not fatal, the four internal injuries seem to have been injured by kung fu such as 'stove-throwing hand' and 'vajra palm'. As long as a person receives a slap, he will die, but you can still hold on, if it's not because of your extremely high martial arts, or because of your luck."

Xiao Shishilang said with a smile: "Young lady not only has blazing eyes, but she is also a high-ranking person, otherwise how would she know which kind of palm force I was injured by?"

Su Suqiao said with a smile: "Actually, I don't understand anything, I just listened to others."

She seemed to be avoiding something, before she could finish speaking, she turned and walked out.

Xiao Shishilang neither stopped nor asked.

Only then did Shen Bijun sneak a glance at him, and whispered, "What do you think of this girl?"

Xiao Shishilang said: "It's not ugly, and it's not too stupid."

Shen Bijun smiled and said: "Not only is she not ugly, but she is also extremely beautiful. Just by looking at her, one can imagine what kind of character her master is."

Xiao Shishilang pondered.

Shen Bijun said again: "I think the people in this place seem to be a little mysterious, but I don't know if he has good intentions for us or bad intentions?"

Su Sujiao said with a smile: "If it's bad intentions, I'm afraid you two won't be able to live now."

The carpet was soft and thick, and there was no sound at all when walking on it.

Shen Bijun couldn't help blushing again, and lowered his head.

Susu came in with two cups of tea in her hands, and said with a smile: "According to our young master, this tea is a kind of fairy seed, which not only nourishes Qi and nourishes the body, but also has unexpected benefits after drinking it."

She glanced at Shen Bijun, and said with a smile: "This is originally our young master's kind intention, but if the two of you don't want to accept it, it doesn't matter."

Xiao Shishilang smiled, and said lightly: "Our lives were originally saved by Tian Gongzi. Even if this bowl of tea is poisoned, I will drink it."

Sure enough, he picked up the tea and drank it down.

Su Su sighed, and said: "No wonder the young master values ​​the two of you so much. This kind of pride is beyond anyone's reach."

She watched Shen Bijun drink the bowl of tea slowly.

She watched Xiao Shishilang fall down first, followed by Shen Bijun.

She still smiled so sweetly, and said softly: "I just said that this bowl of tea has an unexpected effect, and you will soon know that I am not lying to you."
