Chapter 359: Trivial Skills



Just like a magic trick, the originally gray and uncolorful old lantern suddenly turned into a gorgeous and colorful lantern. It truly lived up to the name of the colorful exquisite lantern. This gorgeous lantern was different from the one that was taken away before. It had a hint of simplicity and mystery, more connotation and background, and gave people a different feeling.

"So this is really a colorful exquisite lantern. Sister Yue, how did you make it? It's amazing. Such an ugly lantern suddenly becomes so beautiful." Ye Xinxin looked at the lantern in Su Wenyue's hand in magic. She was still frightened by the previous lesson, so she just looked at it curiously and didn't touch it.

Su Wenyue smiled and said, "It's just a trifle. I've read some things about Lu Ban's secret skills in a book before. Although they are just the basics, I thought that this colorful exquisite lamp was made by Lu Ban, so I tried it out. I didn't expect it to work."

Ye Xinxin believed it without any doubt. She just thought that Su Wenyue was too capable and knew everything. Shangguan Wuyou was not as simple-minded as Ye Xinxin. He did not completely believe Su Wenyue's words and felt that the reason could not be that simple. However, he did not explore the reason. Since Su Wenyue could tell them this matter frankly, it was also a kind of trust in them.

"It's not just that." Su Wenyue fiddled with it a few more times, and the colorful lantern changed into other colors and shapes. Everyone present was amazed. Lu Ban's unique skills were well-deserved. Such a lantern could have so many changes.

"Although it is ingenious, it is not worthy of the reputation of the best lamp in the world. I'm afraid there must be other mysteries in it." Shangguan Wuyou said thoughtfully.

Su Wenyue's eyes flickered. "Maybe. I have only learned the basics. I can only reach this level. I can't see what other mysteries there are in this lamp. How about you guys give it a try?"

Su Wenyue said as she handed the colorful exquisite lamp to Shangguan Wuyou without hesitation. She was not afraid that Shangguan Wuyou would notice anything. She had learned the secret technique of Lu Ban and opened the colorful exquisite lamp by chance. Even if Shangguan Wuyou was very powerful, he would be helpless if he was not proficient in this aspect. What's more, so many skilled craftsmen had studied this colorful exquisite lamp before, but they didn't figure it out, otherwise she would not have the opportunity to get what was inside.

When Shangguan Wuyou saw Su Wenyue handing it over, he took it without hesitation and carefully studied the colorful exquisite lantern. It took him a long time to find out the several small mechanisms that Su Wenyue had just used. After that, there was no progress. Apart from adjusting those small mechanisms and changing the color and shape of the lantern, he did not figure out anything else and looked quite depressed.

Su Wenyue saw it all and just sat there quietly, neither urging nor reminding, waiting for Shangguan Wuyou to have enough time.

"How is it, have you found anything?" Ye Xinxin stared at Shangguan Wuyou for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking. Seeing Shangguan Wuyou shaking his head, she took the colorful lantern from Shangguan Wuyou's hand.

"Isn't it said that there is a unique secret treasure in this colorful exquisite lamp, and if you can get it, you can achieve immortality." Ye Xinxin said while holding the lamp in her hand and pondering. It's not that she really wants to get some secret treasure or achieve immortality. I believe that anyone who hears the rumor and holds the colorful exquisite lamp in their hands will have such curiosity.

"This is just a legend, don't take it seriously. How many legends have you seen that are true? But so many people want to get this colorful exquisite lamp. This colorful exquisite lamp must be extraordinary, otherwise it wouldn't be coveted by so many people. It's a pity that I can't see it."

Shangguan Wuyou said, looking at Han Yu and Su Wenyue again: "If it is not necessary, it is best not to keep this colorful exquisite lamp, otherwise it will definitely bring you big trouble. Looking at the postures of those groups of black-clothed people today, it doesn't look like they will give up. Besides, only wealthy families can cultivate such people. It is irrational to go against such people now."

Shangguan Wuyou said this because he truly regarded Han Yu as a friend. He also noticed Su Wenyue's unusual attitude towards the lamp. He was afraid that Han Yu would think wrongly and get into big trouble. He also expressed his own opinion and decided the ownership of the colorful exquisite lamp.

Han Yu nodded: "Thank you, Brother Runzhi, for reminding me. I will handle it properly, but we won this colorful exquisite lamp together, so we can't keep it all to ourselves."

Shangguan Wuyou was a man of high moral character and he did not covet the legendary treasure at all. Besides, he was afraid of trouble. He had never had any idea about the colorful exquisite lantern, so it was not worth it for him to get involved in this matter.

Although Ye Xinxin liked the colorful exquisite lamp, she had seen better things before. It was just that the novelty made it better. She had insisted on Shangguan Wuyou winning it just out of curiosity and had no intention of owning it. Besides, in her opinion, the lamp was won by Su Wenyue, so it should belong to Su Wenyue. Therefore, she had no objection to Shangguan Wuyou's decision.

However, Han Yu could not just accept the colorful exquisite lantern. This was not his style. Even if his wife liked it very much, she could own it in another way. At least he could not take advantage of her for no reason. After some discussion, Han Yu sent Shangguan Wuyou something of equivalent value. They were all elegant things that literati liked, including an ancient painting and a precious Duan inkstone, which really pleased Shangguan Wuyou.

"Now that the colorful exquisite lamp is in your hands, those people will not be willing to accept it. Most of the people I brought will be left to you for your use. You'd better be careful." Shangguan Wuyou got the things he liked, and also lent the people he brought to Han Yu temporarily because of his friendship with Han Yu.

"Thank you, Brother Runzhi. I won't be polite in this case." Han Yu really needed manpower at this time, so he didn't bother to be polite to Shangguan Wuyou. People like Shangguan Wuyou, once they asked for help, meant they were sincere about helping, and saying too many polite words would make it seem counterproductive.

After sending Shangguan Wuyou and his wife away, Han Yu transferred most of the forces he had cultivated over to guard in secret. The number of guards in the open also increased a lot. With such heavy defense, he felt a little relieved. At least there should be no accidents tonight.

When Su Wenyue saw Shangguan Wuyou and Ye Xinxin leave, she couldn't wait to find a safe and secluded place. She ordered her confidants to guard the area and she closed the door.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Han Yu did not see Su Wenyue after sending Shangguan Wuyou and his wife back. After asking the servants, he learned that Su Wenyue had gone to the study with the colorful lantern. After thinking about it, he decided to walk towards the study.
