Chapter 24

Lambskin, calfskin, pigskin...many sheets of clean leather were spread out on the shelf. Tan Yin touched them one by one, picked out the one that was full of elasticity and slightly hard, and picked up the scissors. Carefully cut a piece, and then placed a life-sized prototype of the organ man against the corner for comparison, nodding in satisfaction.

She is making a very challenging mechanism. She has made so many wooden figures in the past, who can sing, dance, fight, and do housework, but all of them are not as complicated as this one. Another challenge to her artisan skills.

Countless materials she hadn't used were piled up in a mess on the table, no longer cold wood and bronze, except for those processed leathers, and cleaned casings and other scary-looking things.

Tan Yin concentrated on cutting the leather into pieces of different sizes, and then threaded through the thread with a large needle to sew the pieces of skin together thickly, replaced with a small needle, and then used flesh-colored thread to cover the eye of the needle thinly and densely. Fold and fold, the prototype of an ear is done.

An unbearable fishy smell gradually spread in the air, replacing the original neutral and peaceful aroma. Tan Yin looked back and saw that the incense in the censer had been burned out.She mostly deals with wood and copper materials on weekdays. She really hasn't touched such things like leather casings. When she first got them before, she was stunned by the weird smell and had to ask Yuan Zhong for spices. Come and smoke.

Tan Yin took a big black cloth to cover the prototype of the organ man in the corner. Before the completion of the work, she wanted to keep it secret and not let Yuan Zhong see it.I don't know what expression he will have when he stands in front of him after the machine man is finished?Will the eyeballs fall out too?Maybe the jaw will be dislocated.

She couldn't help but feel happy when she thought of the result.From childhood to adulthood to becoming a god, she has always been taciturn and old-fashioned, and rarely has such little girlish thoughts, but after being with Yuanzhong for a long time, she feels that she has been spoiled, and she can't help but think about it Interesting idea.

The old saying that those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black, does have some truth.

Tan Yin washed his handles and went to knock on Yuan Zhong's door.

His small building has three floors. On the second floor, she borrowed a room for storing sundries to make things, and the third floor is his bedroom.

Tan Yin knocked for a long time but no one opened the door. She pushed the door lightly curiously, but it couldn't be pushed open. He put a magic spell on the door, which is really rare.However, speaking of it, she has been busy working as an organ recently, and it seems that she hasn't seen him for several days, which is even more rare, and I don't know what he is doing mysteriously.

She simply went out to get some air. It was already mid-October outside. The autumn was crisp and clear, and the mountains in the distance were no longer green. Most of them had turned golden and deep yellow, and there was a large area of ​​fiery red on the mountainside, which must be full of maple trees. Tree.

A gust of cool autumn wind blew by, bringing with it a rich aroma, and the scent of Xiexianglin became more mellow in autumn, Tan Yin was just getting a headache from the strange smell all over the room, and now she couldn't help it, took a few deep breaths, and suddenly Seeing Yuan Zhong walking slowly carrying a large bag of freshly cut branches, and seeing her staring blankly at the door, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Why, don't you stop doing your secret activities?"

Tan Yin would startle him when he thought of the organ man doing a good job, so she couldn't hold back her eyebrows. She deliberately didn't mention the organ man: "The spices are used up, can you make some more?"

Yuan Zhong sent the freshly cut branches in front of her: "Damn girl, it's a coincidence, I just picked spice wood."

He grabbed her shoulders and pushed her gently into the small building.

The structure of the small building is very similar to the Hexagonal Hall. The first floor is built underground, and the second and third floors are on the ground. The underground floor is where he usually makes incense. Duorang, there are a few oblate bamboo baskets in the corner, in which there are Lingling incense and frankincense that have been dried in the shade, and all kinds of scissors, knives and stone mortars for grinding spices are piled up randomly on the ground, and the bluestone platform is even more messy. , full of various unknown semi-finished spices, the whole room is filled with mixed aromas.

Yuan Zhong lit a torch, peeled a twig and put it on it to smoke and roast it. After a while, a thin layer of fat oozed out from the twig, and the fragrance was overflowing.

Tan Yin sat across from him and watched him making incense seriously. This was not the first time. Both of them seemed to be used to such things. She made miscellaneous gadgets, and he silently watched by her side; Also silently watching from the opposite side.No one spoke, there was no need to speak, and Tan Yin didn't even think there was anything wrong with it.

"How can I make the wooden man speak?" Yuan Zhong asked suddenly after taking honey and mixing the prepared spices thoroughly.

Tan Yin replied without thinking: "Fix the membrane in the throat, and the airflow will collide and you will be able to speak."

After answering for a long time, she finally came to her senses and asked curiously, "Do you also want to be an organ person?"

Yuan Zhong kept a straight face on purpose: "You are allowed to do it, but I am not allowed to do it?"

Tan Yin quickly shook her head: "No, no..."

Yuan Zhong threw the newly made fragrant cake into a semi-old box, closed it, and opened it again after a while, the fragrant cake was dry and ripe as if it had been stored in a cellar.

"Take it." He threw the pancake to her, suddenly smiled, "Tell me what you're doing, and I'll tell you why I'm asking."

Tan Yin held the pancake and shook her head vigorously, she was still waiting to scare his jaw off.

Yuan Zhong flicked her forehead vigorously, with a smile in his eyes: "Then I won't tell you, I will blind you when the time comes."

What mysterious thing is he doing?Tan Yin's rare curiosity was completely seduced by him. Could it be that he is really an organ man?But he doesn't understand anything, what to do?She wished she could break the magic spell that he put on the bedroom door and get in to see what happened.

It's not good, it's not good, Tan Yin patiently returned to the room on the second floor with the cakes, and continued to be the organ man without sleeping or eating.

This mechanism took more time and effort than Tan Yin had imagined. She was only able to complete the last step when the first snow fell in Xianjia Cave.

She looked up at this real person's height and build, and felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart as before, but it seemed that it was not just a sense of accomplishment. When the eyebrows were raised, she had no other intentions when she made them, but now she looked at them after finishing them, and she couldn't tell the feeling in her heart.

It used the most precious black gemstones for its eyes, she polished its skin bit by bit to make it smooth, and used real long hair for its hair, which she pasted one by one and tied into a bun.

Tan Yin stared at it for a long time, and the indescribable surging feeling in her heart gradually calmed down. She took the white clothes that had been prepared on the hanger and dressed it carefully. Reflecting the color of snow, the eyes in its eyes The waves flow, the long hair hangs down the shoulders, and the complexion is like jade, exactly like the real person, as if standing in front of her and smiling at her.

Tan Yin was fascinated once again.

Why did it look like him?She couldn't explain it herself, just like she had subconsciously protected Yuan Zhong behind her back, she was acting as an organ person completely subconsciously, and she didn't even think about being like other people at all.why why?She couldn't tell why, she still couldn't understand people's hearts like she understood craftsmen's skills, she couldn't even understand her own heart.

After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly let out a silent sigh, took a bronze rod, rolled up its sleeves, and there was a small hole at its elbow, inserted the bronze rod, turned it ten times, and the body of the warden Startled, made a characteristic clicking sound, circled around the room a few times like a headless fly, then stopped, turned around and looked at Tan Yin, his eyes were as clear as gods, and he could no longer tell the truth fake.

"You're polite." It clasped its hands together and saluted Tan Yin.

Tan Yin smiled: "Come on, let's go down and give him a surprise."

After two quarters of the hour, at this time, Yuan Zhong is usually picking spices in the fragrant forest. Tan Yin led the organ people out quietly, and walked slowly along the snow-covered lake. It means to stop, but the snow on the road is not deep, and there is a wooden man holding a broom around the lake to sweep the snow hard. It must have been done by Yuan Zhong early in the morning.

The Xiexiang forest is covered in silver, and Yuanzhong, without an umbrella, is bending over to push through the snow, looking for the mature but unpicked grass.He suddenly heard the sound of stepping on the snow behind him, he turned around with a smile, and said, "Why are you willing to come out of your shabby house today..."

He was stunned before he finished speaking. It was not Tan Yin standing behind him, but a man in white, holding a purple bamboo bone paper umbrella in his hand. The umbrella was pressed down extremely low, blocking his face, and he could only see Long black hair hanging down his chest.

"Three thousand worlds are made of silver, and the twelfth floor is made of jade. It's rare to see such heavy snow today, I wonder if you are interested in having a drink with me?"

The voice was deep, but with a hint of clarity, it was extremely, very familiar.

Yuan Zhong was stunned for a moment, he just stared at him without saying a word, the height and shape of the visitor was very familiar, the umbrella still covered his face, and his white robe was blown up and down by the wind and snow.

"Brother doesn't speak, I think it's my younger brother who is being rude." The man in white laughed, "My younger brother will present a song and dance, so that you can get a smile."

After that, the paper umbrella with splashed ink and landscape opened his hand lightly for him, and was blown far away by the wind and snow in an instant. The person under the umbrella was pale, with the tails of his eyes raised, and his face seemed indifferent, but his eyes were smiling slightly .Seeing his face clearly, Yuan Zhong suddenly pointed at him as if struck by lightning, dumbstruck, unable to utter a word.

The man in white clasped his hands together, and suddenly rolled up his long sleeves. He began to sing and dance, his movements were majestic and powerful, and his voice was thick and high-pitched. He sang the song "Jane Xi" that he could hear calluses in his ears.

"Simple and simple, Fang Jiangwan dances. The square of the sun is in the front and upper place."

The hem of his robe scattered the snow on the ground, and the snow was falling more and more at this moment, and he was dressed in white, which made people dazzled for a while.

After a song and dance, the man in white clasped his palms together and saluted, saying: "You're showing your ugliness."

Yuan Zhong was dumbfounded, and suddenly realized something, and said loudly: "Ji Tanyin! Damn girl! Come out!"

He called twice, but no one paid any attention to him, Yuan Zhong's eyes were sharp, and he had already seen a figure hiding behind a tree in the distance, looking stupid.He walked towards her quickly, and Tan Yin saw him from a distance, as if the expression on his face was not as happy as she expected, she couldn't help being a little dazed, watching him walk in front of her in a daze, and then, Then he stretched out his hand and flicked her forehead hard.

"You've been out day and night for three months, and that's why you did this?" Yuan Zhong had a strange expression on his face, pointing to the second "Yuan Zhong" in the forest who was lifelike, and asked after a long time.

Tan Yin covered her forehead and nodded. Seeing his strange expression, she couldn't help muttering: "You, don't you like it?"

I said I wanted to surprise him, but it seemed that I was surprised, and Xi didn't seem to see it.

Yuan Zhong stared at her for a long, long time, until a thin layer of snow had accumulated on her shoulders, he suddenly blinked, and thick mist overflowed from his lips.

"I, I really didn't expect..." He smiled wryly, but that wry smile soon turned into a real smile, his beautiful eyes were full of joy that couldn't be concealed, and it was about to overflow.

So stupid, so stupid looking, but he just couldn't stop laughing.

"You like it?" Tan Yin is not a fool, of course she can see that his smile is gradually spreading, and she can't help but also curl the corners of her mouth.

Yuan Zhong rubbed his nose, looked back at that "Yuan Zhong", and then looked down at her, a layer of faint red appeared on his pale face.

"I like it." His voice was small at first, but suddenly became louder, echoing in the Xiangxiang forest.

"I like."
