Chapter 218 The crow delivering the message

Ji Heng: "If it is fake, there is no need to show it to others. If it is true, showing it to others will only bring disaster to her (him), so I never show it to others."

Lin Xi raised her eyebrows, "Then why did you propose to compete with me in fishing as soon as you saw me, and you even regarded this treasure map as a lottery ticket?"

Ji Heng laughed, "Do you want me to tell the truth or a lie?"

Lin Xi: "What about the truth? What about lies? Tell them all and listen."

Ji Heng smiled again, "The truth is, our Ji clan has passed down a Qi-gazing technique, which can be used to observe a person's Qi.

"As soon as I saw you, I realized that your energy was unusual and that you would be very successful in the future, so I wanted to use this treasure map to make friends with you in advance.

"Are you lying, it's because I don't have money to buy wine, and the necklace around your neck that is embedded with gold and silver jewelry is very valuable at first glance, so I want to win it and use it to buy wine. "

Lin Xi: "...Why do I feel that your truth and lies are contradictory?"

Ji Heng: "Really? It's not important. In this world, there is no need to take things too seriously."

Lin Xi: This old man even sang a jingle to her.

All the doubts in her heart were answered, and she turned to talk: "I heard that you often run to Ji Qiu these days?"

Ji Heng nodded sheepishly.

Lin Xi: "Can you confirm now, is she your granddaughter?"

Ji Heng did not answer, but stood up from his seat, bowed deeply and saluted her.

"I'm here, thank you little friend. If it weren't for you, I would probably die without knowing that my granddaughter is still alive, let alone seeing her.

"My little friend's great kindness, I will always remember it in my heart. If you are of any use to me in the future, just let me know."

Whether it can be done, or whether it can be done, depends on the situation.

Lin Xi thought that since she would be the emperor in the future, she still had to behave like a polite and virtuous corporal, so she stepped forward and gave him a virtual support.

"Lao Ji said something serious, please get up quickly."

She is not someone who shows kindness without repaying it. With Ji Qiu at the door, she is not afraid that the old man will not listen to her.

The old man and the young man looked at each other and smiled meaningfully, as if a thousand-year-old fox had become a spirit.

After Ji Heng left, Lin Xi took out a piece of paper, and she rubbed the fingerprints on the bronze door.

This handprint is long and slender, obviously a woman's hand.

It turned out that she didn't quite understand why a woman's handprint was left on the door.

But after hearing Ji Heng talk about Da Zhou and the last emperor Ji Minghuang, she suddenly understood.

This fingerprint was probably left by Ji Minghuang.

She also left a treasure map for future generations, indicating that she was probably waiting for a certain descendant (woman) of the Ji family to come and take out the treasures in the imperial mausoleum and regain the Ji family's empire!

This fingerprint may be the lock of the bronze door, and the key may be the hand of a descendant of the Ji family.

The bronze door will only open when the hands of descendants of the Ji family match the fingerprints on the door?
Or maybe the descendants of the Ji family need to apply blood on the fingerprints and use blood to open it?
Lin Xi made wild guesses.

Wasn't there just a female descendant of the Ji family in front of her?

Lin Xi asked Qin Shuang to call Ji Qiu over and pointed at a piece of white paper spread out on the desk.

"Put your hands up."

Ji Qiu: "Master, is it one hand or two hands?"

Lin Xi: "Just put your right hand." The fingerprint on the bronze door is the right hand fingerprint.

Ji Qiu put her right hand on the white paper, and Lin Xi traced the hand shape for her, "Okay, it's okay, go back."

Ji Qiu didn't know why, the sect owner called her here just to touch her hands?
She turned around and left in confusion. When she came to the door, she couldn't help but look at her hands in the sun, but she couldn't see any way.

Lin Xi compared the two handprints together and found that there were some discrepancies between Ji Qiu's hand and the handprint on the bronze door, and they did not exactly match.

In fact, if you want to verify your guess, just take Ji Qiu to the Crystal Cave.

But from entering the water to arriving at the entrance under the pine mountain, and then going ashore via the underground river, you need to hold your breath underwater for at least 3 minutes.

This is still at her speed.

When she takes Ji Qiu with her, the speed will definitely be slowed down and it will take 4 to 5 minutes.

She has internal strength and can hold her breath for such a long time, but can Ji Qiu do it?

By the way, let’s not talk about holding her breath. Can she swim?

Lin Xi stopped Ji Qiu, "Can you swim?"

Ji Qiu: "?"

Why is the door owner acting weird today?The things he did were strange and the questions he asked were confusing.But he still replied: "Master, I can't swim."

Lin Xi: "...Okay, I understand."

This time, it's even more difficult.

Ji Qiu intuitively felt that the sect leader was a little disappointed after hearing his answer, but why?

Does the owner hope she can swim?

Samurai.

Wu Xin had a dream that he was being chased by a flock of crows.

The overwhelming crowd of crows screamed and rushed towards him, some pecked him, some scratched him, and some pooped on his head...

What an unlucky dream!

Wake up quickly!
Then he really woke up.

When he opened his eyes, he met a black bird on the railing at the end of the bed.

That's...a crow? !

Could it be that he hasn't woken up yet?

Wu Xin closed his eyes and opened them again.

The crow came to his lap!

When he closed his eyes again and opened them again, the crow came to his chest, so close that he could see its pupils clearly.

Wu Xin sat up suddenly. The crow was frightened by him and flapped its wings and flew to the side.

No, why did a crow fly into his house?
This crow was not afraid of people at all, and even took the initiative to come over and stretch its feet in front of him.

There was a thin bamboo tube tied to that thin foot!

If the crow in front of him were replaced by a white dove, he would naturally think that someone was delivering a message to him.

But the crow... is a little weird.

However, he still untied the thin bamboo tube from the crow's leg, took out the small paper rolled up inside, and unfolded it.

"Come to the mountain and bring the woman you took in this time."

Wu Xin instantly understood who wrote him the letter. It turned out to be the owner.

Also, only someone with unpredictable means like the master can command the crow to deliver a message to him.

When Wu Xin led people to the mountain, Lin Xi was teaching a group of disciples.

Swimming lessons.

She mainly wanted to teach Ji Qiu to swim and train her ability to hold her breath underwater.

So I can take her to the Crystal Cave and try to open the bronze door.

But teaching one person is also teaching, teaching a group is also teaching, so just give a swimming lesson.

Most women in this era could not swim.

Men can go shirtless and jump into the river to swim in just a pair of trousers.

Can a woman do this?Obviously not.

But once a woman comes out of the water with wet clothes and is caught by someone, she will no longer want her reputation and innocence.

Therefore, women basically have no chance to learn swimming.

Lin Xi's teaching location is a stream in the back mountain.

The stream is crystal clear, and you can clearly see the round and white pebbles inside, as well as small fish and shrimps.

The water flow is relatively gentle, reaching only a person's ankle in the shallow part, and as high as a person in the deep part, which is perfect for swimming.

Surrounded by thick green trees and thickets of wild flowers, they form a natural barrier.

Since all the people present were women, there was no need to worry about being seen naked.

However, these women were not very open-minded at first. You looked at me and I looked at you, but no one took the first step.

Lin Xi took the lead, taking off all her outer clothes and skirts, and put on an ancient swimsuit produced by the Shangyi Bureau in front of everyone.

——It is said to be a swimsuit, but in fact it only exposes the arms and legs.

Besides, what if it’s all exposed? It’s just skin, so what if someone sees it?
