Chapter 447: Protective Gu
"Who sent it?" Nan Yichen looked at Lan Yan.
"I didn't see anyone, but there was a note." Lan Yan handed the note over, "I wanted to open it for inspection, but I found that the lock was specially made and I couldn't open it."
Nan Yichen took it and looked at it. The word "gift" was written on it, and he couldn't help but look at Chu Xia.
But Chu Xia took the mahogany box over, and his eyes suddenly lit up. This gift giver was quite powerful. The lock was not an ordinary lock, but a commonly known "Luban lock".
"Xia Xia, I'll come." Nan Yichen hurriedly stretched out his hand.
"It's okay, this thing is not poisonous or dangerous." Chu Xia smiled and shook his head, "If you want to open the box, you have to unlock the lock. Come on, it's fun."
It seems to be a very advanced thing now, but in later generations it was all cracked and even became an educational toy for children. She has also played with it, so this is not difficult for her.
"My master taught me that back then." Nan Yichen also smiled and opened the lock in a few clicks.
"Awesome." Chu Xia gave a thumbs up, "I can do it too, but my speed is not as fast as yours."
Nan Yichen smiled and then opened the box, only to find that there were two small brocade boxes inside, one red and one black.
"I think the black one is for you, and the red one is for me." Chu Xia pointed at the two boxes and looked at Nan Yichen, "What do you think?"
"If it's good stuff, I'll give it to you." Nan Yichen winked at Chu Xia, "I'm all yours, not to mention the stuff?"
Chu Xia couldn't help but rolled her eyes. This person is really. Now he speaks seductively with just opening his mouth. There is no need to draft: "He has a sweet mouth, doesn't he?"
"Is my mouth sweet?" Nan Yichen's eyes widened instantly, "The Queen must try it." He pulled the person into his arms.
"you……"
As a result, the next words were eaten by someone.
After a long time, Chu Xia leaned lazily on the soft bed: "Nan Yichen, you are such a dog."
"Woof woof." Nan Yichen barked twice with satisfaction.
Chu Xia couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, don't be poor. If the courtiers knew that their emperor was like this, they would definitely be scared to death."
"We're not in the court now." Nan Yichen didn't care, "I'll take you to take a bath."
"Your gift..."
"The gifts can't escape here." Nan Yichen picked up Chu Xia and went to the back.
A large bathroom was specially built behind the dormitory. Although it is not a hot spring, there is a heating device under the pool, so there is hot water all day long, and there is also a shower device.
Although it is not as convenient as later generations, it is already very advanced in this era.
Of course, during the bathing process, someone messed up again, causing the two of them to come out a full hour later, and it was already dark.
Nan Yichen didn't call anyone, so he personally took a cloth to wipe Chu Xia's hair: "Thank you, after so many years, today is the happiest birthday I have ever had. I like your gift very much."
"You haven't even eaten my gift." Chu Xia glanced at him sideways. The cake she spent all afternoon baking was still on the table.
"The gift I'm talking about is..." Nan Yichen whispered in Chu Xia's ear, "It was just now... I liked that gesture very much..."
"Get out!" Chu Xia felt like her face was getting angry.
Nan Yichen laughed.
After finally getting it done, the two opened the two brocade boxes.
Inside the black brocade box is a crystal ring, but judging from its size, it should be a men's ring. The ring is crystal clear and has a small butterfly engraved on it.
In the red brocade box is a crystal butterfly. The shape is exactly the same as the butterfly on the ring, but it is several times larger. Moreover, the crystal butterfly has been threaded with silk thread and can be worn directly around the neck.
"It's so beautiful." Chu Xia can be regarded as someone who has seen good things, but when she looked at this, she still praised it sincerely. However, she couldn't tell what was so beautiful about it. She just thought this thing was beautiful.
Nan Yichen was lost in thought while holding the ring.
"What's wrong with you?" Chu Xia didn't hear Nan Yichen's words, turned around and looked over, and noticed something strange about Nan Yichen.
"Xia Xia." Nan Yichen raised his eyes and looked at Chu Xia, "I think I know who gave this."
Chu Xia looked at the other party. Although the other party was trying his best to endure it, her eyes were still slowly turning red, and a thought flashed through her mind: "Is it her?"
Nan Yichen nodded: "I was less than three years old when she died, and my memory of her is very vague, but I remember that just the night before her accident, she put a butterfly into my body...
"
"Butterfly?" Chu Xia frowned, what is going on.
"Oh, that's her protective Gu, also called life-saving Gu." At this moment, a voice sounded in Chu Xia's mind, "Without this Gu, Nan Yichen wouldn't have survived at all, and he wouldn't have had the chance to seek medical treatment.
of."
"Little bastard, you're finally back." Chu Xia's eyes lit up and she looked around, but didn't find the little thing. "Don't look for me. I'm getting together with Xiao Hei and his wife. This time I upgraded.
Finally, my ability has increased and I can send you messages thousands of miles away, okay..."
Chu Xia withdrew his gaze and said, "Thousands of miles of sound transmission, this function is great, it can be used as a phone in the future."
"There is such a shadow in my mind, it is indeed something like a butterfly." Nan Yichen was focused on the ring, so he did not notice the abnormality in Chu Xia. "Looking at this now, I can confirm that it is a butterfly."
"That's her life-saving Gu." Chu Xia held Nan Yichen's hand, "You should know that Gu is a part of people's lives and bodies in Miaojiang. Everyone has a protective Gu, which means they are in danger.
She gave her life-saving Gu to you, Nan Yichen, she is protecting her son with her life..."
Nan Yichen's eyes were completely red: "Xia Xia, she... didn't abandon me, she... didn't abandon me..."
"There is no mother who doesn't love her children." Chu Xia also felt a little sad, "It's just that the things they encounter are different and the way of expressing them is different. Some mothers will make food and drink for their children, and some mothers will make food and drink for their children.
She will urge her children to study and practice martial arts...and your mother will use her life to protect you from growing up safely..."
"So, I am also a child with a mother." There were tears rolling in Nan Yichen's eyes.
"Yes." Chu Xia nodded, "You have a father who loves you, a mother who loves you, and now you have a daughter-in-law who loves you..."
