Chapter 106 Don't admit it!

Cen Xiyan sighed in his heart, but his face showed just the right look of surprise, "Mechanism technique? How can my master Yaqu know that mysterious and ancient secret technique? That unique method of making hundreds of birds facing the phoenix is ​​nothing more than

The master just had a sudden idea."

"Really?" Dan Helai glanced at Cen Xiyan with raised eyebrows, and then continued: "The Eighteen Arhats in yew wood taken by Yaqu the year before last are exquisitely carved and impressive, especially the movements and expressions of the Arhats will change over time.

The changes are vivid and lifelike, which is amazing and breathtaking!”

"Oh? That Eighteen Arhats was also bought by Brother Dan? It turns out that Brother Dan is a regular customer of Yaqu." Cen Xiyan deliberately pretended to be confused and said with a smile: "Tell me earlier! What will Brother Dan like about Yaqu next time?"

Something, Brother Dan, please say hello in advance, I will give Brother Dan a preferential price for his old customers!”

When he said this, Cen Xiyan's expression became a bit philistine. A moment ago he was tasting wine calmly and gracefully, but now he has the face of a complete profiteer, so excessive that it seemed natural!

Dan Helai looked at Cen Xiyan's bright eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little flashy, suspecting that he was hallucinating.

The flash of God only lasted for a moment, and Dan Helai quickly returned to normal, and he snorted softly: "Brother Suifeng, why do you pretend to be confused because you understand?"

"I really don't know what Brother Dan is talking about. If Brother Dan has something to say, you might as well say it directly. Why bother going around in circles? It makes people dizzy."

"Brother Suifeng doesn't know who Gongsun Changxiu is, so he should know who Master Mu Ling is, right?"

"Master Mu Ling! Of course you know this! He was a genius master craftsman of the Zhao State during the Warring States Period. The chariots and ballistae he made shocked the seven nations. Who doesn't know? It is said that he surpassed all others in the use of mechanism techniques.

Where are Master Gongshu Ban and Master Mozi!"

"Master Mu Ling, a close friend of Zhao's famous general Li Mu, once used the art of mechanism to help General Li Mu defeat Qin. Because of his exquisite and powerful mechanism, he was highly sought after by the world and made kings of all countries respected and afraid! Later Zhao

Wang Qian fell into the King of Qin's plan to alienate him, listened to the slander, seized Li Mu's military power, and killed Li Mu. Master Mu Ling was so distraught that he turned to Qin and counterattacked Zhao. Three months later, Zhao fell, and Master Mu Ling took him with him.

The body of General Li Mu returned to his hometown for burial, but since then, he has disappeared from the world and has never been heard from again..." Dan Helai spoke slowly. When he said this, his eyes were fixed on Cen Xiyan, not missing the look on her face.

Any expression.

Unfortunately, he didn't see anything from Cen Xiyan's face. Cen Xiyan had been listening calmly without any special expression on his face.

Dan Helai continued: "Everyone in the world knows Master Mu Ling and knows that he is superb in machine skills, but few people know his real name. I heard that his surname is Gongsun, and his given name is Changxiu, with the prefix "Yu"! Even fewer people know.

, he is actually a descendant of the lineage of Mozi’s disciple Gong Shangguo!”

"Oh..." Cen Xiyan pretended to realize, "It turns out that Gongsun Changxiu is the name of Master Mu Ling!"

"After the King of Qin conquered the world, he burned books and harassed Confucian scholars. Almost all books and records about the art of mechanism were destroyed. In the name of building the imperial mausoleum, he recruited craftsmen from all over the world who were proficient in mechanism. However, in the end, none of these craftsmen knew what they were doing.

Since then, the art of mechanism has declined. Now more than 800 years have passed. During this period, although some people who know the art of mechanism have appeared in the world, there are only a few people in total, and there is no one who can surpass Master Mu Ling.

..." When Dan Helai came to this point, he stared at Cen Xiyan sharply, and then said: "I didn't expect that I took pictures of two mechanical products in a woodenware pavilion called Yaqu..."

So, Brother Dan believes that I am a descendant or descendant of Master Mu Ling? Haha..." Cen Xiyan chuckled, shook his head and said: "Brother Dan, your imagination is too rich, right? You said so too.

, the Wood Spirit Master later disappeared from the world, whether he retired or was killed, it is hard to say. Moreover, even if he has any descendants, more than 800 years have passed. If those descendants are still continuing to specialize

How can the study of mechanism techniques be unknown? As for the two wood carvings of our Yaqu, they are just a little more novel. They are completely incomparable to Master Mu Ling's exquisite mechanism techniques for attacking cities and defeating enemies.

However, human thinking is not limited. It is normal for craftsmen to be creative. Our elegant old craftsmen have only made a small breakthrough in their craftsmanship. Brother Dan, why are you making such a fuss? Although there are few people who know the art of mechanism in the world today,

But it’s not completely impossible. Brother Dan wanted to find the successor of Master Mu Ling and was looking at our small wood shop, but he went in the wrong direction."

Cenxiyan's face remained unchanged and he refused to admit it. Anyway, Yaqu had never made anything too out of the ordinary, but with two more exquisite wood carvings, he couldn't fully explain anything. He could just guess.

The green eyes on the side were lowered, hiding the emotions behind them. He couldn't lie like his junior sister without a red face and a heartbeat, but he couldn't hold her back at all.

"Why are you so harsh with Sui Feng?" Dan Helai leaned back lazily and said slowly: "Those two wood carvings are just that, but what do you say about that piece of snake mulberry wood?"

"Snake mulberry wood? Is it the piece that my big shopkeeper took at the Secret Treasure Conference? Is there anything wrong with the snake mulberry wood?"

Cen Xiyan asked this question. Although there was confusion on her face, she was still very calm. However, she sighed secretly in her heart. It seemed that her previous feeling was correct. There was indeed something wrong with the piece of snake grain wood.

ah……

"The snake mulberry wood, also known as snake grain wood, is produced in a remote place. Almost no one in the surrounding countries knows about the wood. It is only recorded in the handwritten notes written by Master Mu Ling. There are no descendants of Master Mu Ling in Yaqu."

, and how do you recognize that piece of snake grain wood?" Dan Helai's eyes were firm and his words were a little aggressive.

"Brother Dan is the seller of that piece of snakewood?" Cen Xiyan asked without answering.

"Exactly." Dan Helai admitted simply.

"Just to attract the descendant of Master Mu Ling you think?" Cen Xiyan asked again.

"Not bad." Dan Helai nodded again and admitted.

Knew it!

"Is Brother Dan the descendant of Master Mu Ling?"

"of course not."

"Then how did Brother Dan recognize the snake grain wood?"

"Although Master Mu Ling only had one close friend, General Li Mu, there was actually another person with whom he had a close relationship. That person's surname was Dan!"

As for the following words, it goes without saying that Dan Helai, Cen Xiyan also understood that Dan Helai is the descendant of a person with the surname Dan! In fact, at the beginning, when Dan Helai came to tell him that his surname was Dan, she had already roughly guessed that he was
