Inside the house, Wang Li, wrapped in a quilt, was having a magical and absurd dream.

Wang Li in the dream is sometimes like a bystander, sometimes like a participant. The dream spans dozens of years and witnesses an extraordinary story.

There are ghosts, gods, demons and immortals in the dream, there are worldly scenes and horrible ghosts, sometimes it is like a dream and sometimes it is like a nightmare.

In a general sense, ordinary people will not have any effect even if they come into contact with the medium of expressing spirit with objects. On the one hand, they are weak in spirit, and more importantly, they are loose in spirit and have no aura or mana to leverage.

However, as a caster, Ji Yuan moved his hands and feet a little, and naturally Wang Li could see it when he touched the paper. It's just that ordinary people's spirits are not strong enough to bear too much information in an instant, so he will go into a sleep state for self-protection, and come to him in the form of dreams. Digestion.

This point has already been seen in "Tongming Policy". It's not that Ji Yuan used some special dream magic. Ji Yuan hasn't learned the dream-entry technique yet. Make Wang Li uncomfortable.

This process will not have any adverse effects on Wang Li himself, because it is not forced and the method is soft, so the only problem is Wang Li's memory. If his memory is poor, he may forget some key points before he wakes up from the dream. up.

Ji Yuan's ability to express spirit with objects is also a talent, and he is far from perfect in cultivation, and he uses ordinary paper as a medium, so if he triggers it once, his spirit will be lost.

But this is also the law of fate, the law of fate that belongs to the storyteller, if you forget it completely, the story of Bailu Yuan is still known by Ji Yuan, so naturally it will not be broken, but you will not look for Wang Li again.

Standing outside the courtyard for a while, Ji Yuan listened to Wang Li sleeping evenly in the house, and a child in the alley excitedly ran to the courtyard of this family and knocked on the door.

"Bang bang bang..."

"Xiaodong, we are going to pick up firecrackers, are you going?"

Three children shouted from outside to inside.

"Go, go, I'm here, I'm here, wait for me for a while and I'll come right away!"

A boy's excited voice came from the yard, and he hurried out with a bun in his mouth.

"Put on a scarf so you don't catch a cold!"

The boy's mother chased him out and wrapped a cotton scarf around his son before letting him go.

A total of four children gathered outside the courtyard, "hee hee haha" quickly walked out of the alley and rushed outside.

Firecrackers are a rare item, they are only released by wealthy families during the New Year and festivals, but not every one of the strings of firecrackers has a chance to explode, some of them will be ejected when other firecrackers explode.

These hidden gems are the children's treasures. In the past few days of the Chinese New Year, many children will look for places to let off firecrackers, looking for small firecrackers that have not yet sounded.

Watching the children go away with laughter and laughter, Ji Yuan was also infected by this atmosphere, and walked away with a smile on his face, remembering that he seemed to have done similar things when he was a child.

When he returned to Yongning Street, the blindfold disappeared naturally, and Ji Yuan walked on the street like an ordinary person.

Although he was going back to the Book Pavilion of the Chu Mansion, it was not an urgent matter. Although he maintained a normal routine now, it would not have any impact if he didn't sleep for ten days and a half months.

The Ivy Sword is floating behind the back. It has been very quiet since sweeping the air last night. It is also a fairy sword with a very aura entwined with Ivy. The fairy sword rises into the sky.

"Om..."

At this moment, there was a faint sound of the fairy sword behind him, and Ji Yuan turned his head to look.

"woke up?"

"Om..."

The Qingteng Sword responded softly again, the sword body was suspended behind Ji Yuan, it was obviously not moving, and it was not out of the sheath, but there was an undetectable sword intent scanning all directions, so that all foreign objects could not be hidden within the range of the Immortal Sword Qi .

Going straight along the Yongning Street Avenue is the direction of the imperial city. The further you go, the richer and richer people are, and that kind of big garden and big mansion begin to appear.

This is also the main "battlefield" for some children.

"We came here first, you go to pick it up over there, there is no one there!"

"Nonsense, we picked it up here just now, and you guys just came here!"

Two groups of children were arguing around a mansion. The first moment they were at war, but the next moment the two sides did not clash. Instead, the two armies gathered in one place and fought towards the gates of other mansions together.

"Show me how many you picked up!" "Oh, you have more than a dozen!"

"I have twenty!" "I only have seven..."

"Let's put it together later!"

...

When Ji Yuan passed by, there were more than one or two waves of such children. They didn't care about the frozen red fingers rummaging around, and wanted to grab the treasures before the concierge servants cleaned the door.

Many mansion concierges will drive the children away when they come out with a broom. It's not necessarily because everyone is fierce, but because of their responsibility.

Ji Yuan walked outside the Chu Mansion, there was a steamed stuffed bun shop across the street that he frequented, and he planned to buy some steamed stuffed buns before going to Shuge.

The concierge of the Chu Mansion is an old man over half a century old, leaning against the gate, holding a broom, watching two children in big flower jackets rummaging for firecrackers, and he smiled and asked the two children.

"How many have you found?"

"I am eleven, and he has nearly twenty!"

"That's great, hey, I still have a few pieces of candy here, you help me sweep the firecrackers, and I'll give you the candy, how about it?"

"Okay, okay!" "You are not allowed to lie to us!"

The two children excitedly took the broom and dustpan from the old man, and cleaned there very vigorously. Naturally, such things as sweeping the floor are not strenuous for children from common people's homes.

Ji Yuan also stopped by the side to take a look. He had seen this old man of the Chu family a few times, but he was not actually a concierge, but more like a steward. trust.

As far as Fan Chen is concerned, this person is actually quite remarkable, at least he looks old, but he has good martial arts.

Ji Yuan is considered a master of martial arts in the present age, and the "good" in his heart already has quite a lot of weight.

Seeing a gentleman standing beside him with a smile on his face, the old concierge also bowed his hands at Ji Yuan, congratulating the stranger on the New Year.

Ji Yuan also politely replied, and after the two children finished sweeping the floor and got the candy, he left and walked to the bun shop over there.

Afterwards, within a cup of tea, Ji Yuan had already appeared on the third floor of the Book Pavilion in the backyard of the Chu Mansion.

There are not many bookshelves on the third floor of this bookstore, and there are two tables and chairs. Definitely an airy and comfortable environment.

After all, it is the bookstore of a wealthy family. On one of the bookshelves on the third floor are the matching four treasures of the study, all of which are top-grade.

Ji Yuan sat in front of one of the tables, eating pickled vegetable buns while flipping through a set of "Tongjian of Hundred Houses" found on the second floor. There are six volumes in total.

This book is not a manuscript, but a printed copy, with heavy mold impressions, so you can easily read it by touching it without putting your face close to the pages.

The thirteen prefectures of Dazhen have a vast territory of nearly a hundred prefectures. This set of books roughly talks about some places of interest and customs in each prefecture. Although the book was written 70 or 80 years ago, it is still lively and interesting, and it can be used for reference. significance.

Before the five salted vegetable buns were finished, Ji Yuan heard voices gradually approaching the bookstore. After looking up and listening, Ji Yuan continued eating and reading on the third floor without moving, while someone had already opened the book below. Pavilion door.

"Brother Chu, I heard that there was auspiciousness in the Jin Palace last night. Is it true?"

"Even you know about this?"

"Then how can I not know, I also know that King Wu threw his cup in the morning!"

"Hey, you dare to say that."

"Isn't this in front of Brother Chu! By the way, is the matter of Prince Jin's mansion true?"

The two young men below were chatting vigorously, one was wearing a light green shapely cotton fir vest and a fur scarf, the other was wearing a black brocade robe, accompanied by the old man who had just been a guest housekeeper.

Hearing another young man's curious repeated inquiries, the young master of the Chu Mansion told the truth.

"Hehe, last night my father was also invited to be in Prince Jin's Mansion. The auspiciousness was witnessed by everyone in Prince Jin's Mansion, and ah..."

At this point, the young master of the Chu family subconsciously lowered his voice.

"Besides, the Holy Majesty also summoned the god-man to show up. I heard that there was a white mist manifesting, but the god-man did not come in the end."

These two words made Ji Yuan on the third floor stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect someone from the Chu House to be in Jin Wang's House last night.

As if he just realized what he was doing here, the young master of the Chu family asked the old man.

"Uncle Xu, where is the "On the Birds" that my father sent someone to copy from the Jin Palace before? Let me show it to Shixiong."

"Oh, it's on the second floor, I'll find it for Young Master."

After the old man responded, he took small steps all the way up to the second floor, found a bookshelf and found a box of "Theory of Birds" in a hard paper collection.

Just when I was about to go downstairs, my nose moved.

"Um?"

This suspicious nasal sound was very low, but Ji Yuan on the third floor stopped for a moment, looking at the pickle buns in his hand.

'Mistake! Mistake! '

Sure enough, after only a few breaths, the old man tapped his vigorous toes up to the third floor, and the whole process was silent.

After going up to the third floor, the old man looked around, sniffed carefully, frowned, opened the attic door and walked around the corridor, but he didn't see anyone.

Simply climb up to the roof of the attic like an ape hanging from a tree, and gently land on the snow on the roof.

Scanning carefully, I found that the white snow on the roof was very neat, except that there were no footprints under my own feet. Then I probed to look at the overhanging cornices on the lower floors, and there were no traces of trampling on the white snow.

'Could it be that I'm overthinking? '

When the old man was puzzled, there was a urging voice from the young master of the Chu family downstairs.

"Uncle Xu, did you find it?"

The old man hurriedly turned back to the attic, and responded to the bottom of the stairs.

"I found it, I found it, come down immediately!"

After the old man left, Ji Yuan came out from behind the shadow of a desk and sat down at the desk again.

‘This old man is quite sharp! On the other hand, Mrs. Yin seems to have gained some fame. '
