Chapter 354 Jin Xiaohe
Chu Beihe was distracted slightly when his wrist was suddenly wrapped by the soft palm.
When he turned his head, he happened to meet Jiang Xuxu's almond eyes, which seemed a little close and a little flustered.
Jiang Xuxu was indeed flustered for a moment. She shook hands without thinking much just now, and now she felt that something was wrong.
But then she thought about it. It's not like they haven't shaken hands before.
Chu Beihe shook her hand last time, so it's normal for her to shake hands back.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xuxu calmed down again. She was worried that he would finish the last stroke after she let go, so she simply held on.
The two of them kept this posture for three full seconds.
The two little golden paper figures were originally sitting in a row watching the painting. Now they looked at each other, and suddenly turned around at the same time, covering their faces with their hands, as if we didn't see anything.
The embarrassment that Jiang Xuxu had just suppressed came back again.
Your actions make me feel like I have done something shameful.
There was an inexplicable heat climbing up to the tip of her ears, but Jiang Xuxu's face was tense, with a serious and earnest look.
She came back to her senses, let go, and at the same time, she quickly reached out with her other hand and took away the unfinished talisman paper on Chu Beihe's face.
Chu Beihe looked at her actions and raised his eyebrows.
Jiang Xuxu pretended to be calm and said, "Talismans should be drawn in one stroke. You stopped several times in the middle. This talisman is useless."
As he spoke, he put away the talisman paper, paused, and added seriously,
"You don't seem to have any talent for drawing talismans. Don't try it in the future."
There are too many golden secrets on Chu Beihe's body. He is different from ordinary people in the Xuanmen. Jiang Xuxu has not decided whether to open his so-called talent.
Jiang Xuxu once heard his master say that the more talented a person is, the more he must stick to the boundaries.
This is especially true in the world of metaphysics.
When a person suddenly has too powerful abilities, even gods can make mistakes.
You can't be sure whether you will awaken a beast.
Chu Beihe looked at her pretending to be serious expression and did not ask any more questions.
Just then there was a knock on the door. It was the housekeeper.
"Miss Xuxu, there is a deliveryman downstairs who said he is here to deliver something to you."
The housekeeper didn't understand why the deliveryman would deliver something here. Did the man know that Miss Xuxu was here? He
was puzzled in his heart, but he maintained his professionalism on his face.
Jiang Xuxu guessed at once that it was a deliveryman from a spiritual matter. Thinking that it might have been sent back by Yi Jian, her eyes lit up immediately. She said hello to Chu Beihe, grabbed a small golden paper figurine on the table and hurried downstairs.
The housekeeper looked at Jiang Xuxu's back with some regret as she left.
Miss Xuxu had only been with the young master for less than half an hour.
How come this flash delivery comes so unfortunate?
Chu Beihe's face doesn't show much emotion, and he thinks of Jiang Xuxu's reaction when he stopped him from finishing drawing the talisman.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like he drew the talisman badly.
Ha.
He lied to him again.
Chu Beihe sat alone at the table with dark pupils, thinking about something, and his sleeve was pulled slightly again.
Chu Beihe raised his eyes and saw that the little paper man was holding his sleeve and pointing his finger to let him look at the table.
Chu Beihe looked in the direction of its finger and
saw a few words written crookedly on the blank talisman paper on the table.
Chu Beihe carefully identified it and realized that it said [Jin Xiaohe].
Chu Beihe was unable to react for a moment, and then he saw the little paper man jumping onto the three words, first stomping the name under one foot, and then pointing in the direction of the door.
Chu Beihe seemed to have sensed something and asked, "Is this the name of the little paper man next to Jiang Xuxu?" It
was both gold and crane, obviously related to him.
The little paper man nodded, then tilted his head and looked at him eagerly, pointing at himself with his short hand.
Chu Beihe raised his eyebrows, "Do you want your own name too?"
The little paper man nodded vigorously, and his expressionless head inexplicably showed him a sense of expectation.
Chu Beihe looked at it. Although he had kept it by his side these days, he had never thought of a name.
After all, it was not a real pet.
But since Jiang Xuxu has been given a name...
Chu Beihe thought for a while and uttered a name,
"Then you should be called Jin Xiaoxu."
They are a pair, so it's normal to have similar names, isn't it?
Jin Xiaoxu got a new name, and immediately jumped and spun around happily on the talisman paper.
As if sensing Jin Xiaoxu's happiness, Jin Xiaohe, who was originally sitting quietly on Jiang Xuxu's shoulder, suddenly jumped up and accidentally fell off.
Fortunately, Jiang Xuxu reached out in time and whispered to it,
"Jin Xiaohe, be honest."
After saying that, Jiang Xuxu looked behind her inexplicably. She had just received something from the flash delivery boy and was walking towards Jiang's house with the things. After confirming that no one behind her heard her calling the little paper man, she was slightly relieved.
It didn't matter if other people heard it.
As long as Chu Beihe didn't hear it.
After all, she really just picked this name casually.
After returning to the Jiang family, Jiang Xuxu immediately set up a barrier, and then opened the box that Yi Xun sent her.
The long, exquisite and simple box, when opened, a thick breath mixed with spiritual energy came to her face.
When she saw what was in the box, Jiang Xuxu's eyes lit up slightly.
Lying in the box was a peach wood sword with exquisite workmanship.
Unlike ordinary peach wood swords, the peach wood sword in front of him was pitch black, with a rounded tip and a thin tail.
It is said to be a sword, but its shape is more like a branch.
This is the wooden sword made of lightning-struck peach wood that was found in Chu Beihe's study before.
The sword body is covered with thunder patterns with gullies and grooves, and various Taoist spells are carefully engraved along the direction of the thunder patterns.
At first, she designed the style of the magic weapon according to the patterns and runes, but because she had never made a magic weapon, she gave it to Yi Xun and asked him to help find someone to make it. Now she finally saw the finished product.
Jiang Xuxu was naturally happy when she got her own peach wood sword, but she was more concerned about the survey results of the strange energy body that she had sent to Yi Xun before.
She called him directly to ask about it, and Yi Xun's voice was a bit lazy and casual.
"Look at the copper on the end of your wooden sword's handle."
Jiang Xuxu followed his words and looked at the copper-green on the end of the wooden sword's handle. He reached out to touch it and felt that the copper-green was strangely familiar.
On the other end of the phone, Yi Jian's chuckle was slightly demonic.
"Does it look familiar? This was taken from the broken sword of the sword spirit. It's a bargain for you."
Jiang Xuxu: ...
Does the sword spirit know that you did this?
"Of course the little sword spirit knew that the broken sword was its true body. At first I didn't plan to put it on your peach wood sword, but the strange energy in the jade token you sent was a good thing."
"I locked it up with the disobedient little sword spirit. Later, the broken sword lost some of its copper body, which is the copper on your sword handle."
Yi Lu suddenly laughed out loud,
"Although I didn't find out what the strange energy was, I melted it into the copper sheath."
Jiang Xuxu: ???
