Chapter 15
The young master hugged his knees and hid his face. His long black hair slid down from his back, and a piece of white neck was faintly revealed. Chu Xiangtian moved his fingers and resisted the urge to touch it again.
The young master with his head down looked in a bad mood.
Of course, Wen Tian was in a bad mood and finally beat him, but the other party was unharmed. He was in great pain. The depressed mood surged up and it was difficult to subside. The pain reminded him of a lot of unhappy things, and he suddenly became even more depressed.
I don’t want to talk or pay attention to others, I just want to be quiet.
After staring at the young master's furry head for a while, he thought he had made the person cry again. Chu Xiangtian was a little annoyed and was stunned for a while at the small hair. He suddenly remembered something, fumbled in his arms, and took out a small red wooden ball.
The small wooden ball is made of mahogany, just the size of a baby's fist, but the workmanship is extremely exquisite. Rabbits are carved on the six sides of the upper, lower, front, back, left and right. Each rabbit has different movements. Some are looking up with ears and some are half-standing and rolling balls. Each one is carved vividly, like a living thing.
The little rabbit with his ears raised was inexplicably a bit like Wen Tian. Chu Xiangtian took a look and bought it without hesitation.
"I'll make you a trick, will you watch it?"
One leg bent and one leg stretched out, Chu Xiangtian played with the small red wooden balls. The wooden balls were polished very smoothly and shined with a warm luster.
Wen Tian raised his face and looked at him in confusion, speaking in a silence, "What trick?"
"Take it and see." Putting the small wooden ball into his hand, Chu Xiangtian raised his chin and let him see it by himself.
The little wooden ball rolled around in his hand, making it exquisitely and cute, but nothing special. Wen Tian looked puzzled.
He curled his lips and took the little wooden ball back from Wen Tian's hand and shook it in front of his eyes, "Look carefully, don't blink."
Wen Tian blinked disobediently.
After spreading the small wooden ball in the palm of his hand, Chu Xiangtian gently tapped the surface of the wooden ball with his other hand a few times, and the round and smooth wooden ball instantly dissipated into a pile of wood pieces.
Wen Tian's eyes widened slightly.
"Continue to watch." Chu Xiangtian smiled and piled the wood pieces casually on the hem of his clothes. Then he flew his hands and for a moment, the broken-up small wooden ball returned to its original state.
Curiously leaning over, Wen Tian took the small wooden ball to play with. There was no gap on the smooth surface, and the little rabbit carved on it was also different from before.
The rabbit rolled the ball on his head, and the rabbit with his ears hanged down one of its ears.
"How did this happen?" He imitated Chu Xiangtian and knocked it with his hand, but there was no change.
"Want to learn?" Chu Xiangtian approached him slightly.
Wen Tian nodded, and his attention was attracted by the small wooden ball.
"This is an improved Luban ball." Chu Xiangtian sat behind him, put his chest on his back, and reached out to point a place of the wooden ball, "Knock here with cleverness."
Wen Tian tapped with his fingers, but there was no response. He looked back at Chu Xiangtian in confusion.
Chu Xiangtian, who was also looking down at him, collided with his eyes. The two were very close to each other and could almost feel the temperature of each other's breathing.
Wen Tian's ears suddenly turned red, and he turned his face uncomfortably, shrank his neck and said, "I can't knock it."
"I'll teach you..." Chu Xiangtian narrowed his eyes, held his fingers, and knocked them at the same place. A small piece of wood fell out and fell on Wen Tian's clothes.
Wen Tian reached out to pick it up, took advantage of the situation and left Chu Xiangtian's encirclement, and moved to the side.
Why are you doing so close to you?
The small wooden ball lacked a piece of wood and opened it. Wen Tian carefully studied the wooden ball and found that there were tightly spliced tenons inside, one piece biting and one piece, connected, and stuck very cleverly.
After studying for a while, Wen Tian tried to dismantle it. After a while, he actually got a few pieces of wood. He slowly found the feel. Wen Tian's movements became faster and faster. After a quarter of an hour, only a pile of scattered pieces of wood were left in the exquisite small wooden ball.
Wen Tian looked at Chu Xiangtian with bright eyes, "It was successfully demolished."
Chu Xiangtian touched his chin and praised without any stinginess: "So smart." This is not a false statement. This improved Luban ball is more precise and complex than an ordinary Luban ball. He can skillfully disassemble and put it together because he has been in contact with various military weapons all year round. The small Luban ball is not difficult for him. However, Wen Tian played this for the first time and could be completely disassembled in a quarter of an hour. He is indeed smart and insightful.
After receiving the praise, Wen Tian narrowed his eyes happily, and his eyes and eyebrows were filled with joy. He lowered his head and tried to recombine the broken parts.
The combination is much more difficult than disassembly. It was not until the gorgeous sunset filled the entire sky that Wen Tian also made a small amount of pieces.
"Don't hurry, fight slowly." Chu Xiangtian reached out and rubbed his head, Wen Tian bit his lip and was still concentrating on Lu Ban's ball.
Chu Xiangtian was so amused that he reached out to pack up the remaining parts so that he would not let him continue to be addicted.
The person who was interrupted by interest stared at him fiercely with his eyes.
Chu Xiangtian spread his hands, "It's time to have supper."
The person who was addicted to the little toy reacted, pursed his lips gently, stood up and patted his clothes, and then prepared to go down.
Seeing his movements, Chu Xiangtian grabbed him and whispered in his ear, not to move, jumped down from the roof, then spread his arms and let the young master on the roof jump down.
After looking down, Wen Tian was a little scared and shook his head in resistance. He looked around and happened to be a servant passing by, so he shouted, "Come over here with a ladder."
The servant who was called was very quick to move. After running away for a while, he moved a ladder to the roof. Wen Tian walked down the ladder slowly, stood in front of Chu Xiangtian in a good mood, and raised his head slightly and smiled at him, "Thank you today."
Chu Xiangtian, who originally wanted to have a hero to save the beauty: "..."
*******
After the vernal equinox, the flowers in the garden rush to bloom, and the shadows of winter completely dissipated. The small Sifang Town was almost surrounded by blooming flowers. The peach blossom forest outside the city was blooming, and pink peach blossoms were everywhere in the mountains.
The people in the town are preparing for the upcoming Flower Festival.
February 12th is the birthday of the Hundred Flowers, also known as the Flower Festival. On this day, no matter men, women, young and old, they will go out for a walk to enjoy the flowers. Girls who are not married will also make a "flower magic lamp" and hang it on the peach blossom tree to pray for a happy marriage.
Wen Tian was not very interested in celebrating the festival. He was worried and held his cheek, thinking that there was such a big peach blossom forest outside the city. If a tree said a word, he would not be quarreled to death, let alone he had to stare at Wen Boli at home.
Every year around the Flower Festival, Wen Boli would go to the temple to bathe and fast, stay for the first half of a month or a month. After living for a lifetime, Wen Tian believed his lies and thought that Wen Boli would have a ghost. He felt that Wen Boli had a private relationship. When people left, he had to stay at home and keep people attentive.
However, Wen Shuyue was rarely more interested since she broke off the engagement. She pulled him to choose the style of the flower magic lamp. Wen Tian sighed worriedly and could only accept her fate to make the lantern with her sister first.
