lord of all phenomena

Chapter 47 Writing a Letter
Gu Qing rubbed the hilt of the sword in his hand for a long time, deeply feeling its material, touch and structure.The hilt is as light as wood, but it is very hard, and Gu Qing didn't find any interlayers in it.

This is expected, if the hilt has a porch interlayer, it would not be Gu Qing's turn to decipher it.

He just completely ruled out this possibility first.

Gu Qing then condensed a bit of Ice Profound Energy and poured it into the hilt of the sword without any waves.This is not surprising. According to He Qing, there should be practitioners in the Red Society.

Of course, there is another possibility that Gu Qing's inner strength is not in the right direction with the hilt of the sword, or the amount is not enough.

But Gu Qing has no conditions to verify this right now.

There is no paint on the hilt, and the texture of the material itself is so fine that it is almost imperceptible.

Gu Qing concentrated on analyzing every bit of texture he observed to the best of his ability.

When he kept comparing different textures, he finally found something strange.Immediately afterwards, Gu Qing's eyes fell on the hilt of the sword again, first staring at one point for a long time, and then at another point for a long time.

The two textures are certainly not the same, but if they are both naturally formed textures, there is always a connection between them.

The textures of the two points that Gu Qing is looking at are related, but if you pay attention to the details of the two textures and keep analyzing these details in depth, you still feel something is wrong.

Gu Qing rubbed his temples, this kind of extremely detailed analysis is a big test for his eyesight, and it also consumes a lot of brainpower.

Gu Qing rested for a while.

After recovering, Gu Qing rubbed his chin, and the rough stubble rubbed against the tiger's mouth, which seemed to have a wonderful stimulating effect on the spirit.

Soon he thought of a way, Gu Qing decided to grind out a few lenses to help him observe the hilt.

First satisfy the hungry stomach, and then sleep well.

Then Gu Qing went out to buy some glazed pieces and other spare materials and came back.

After returning home, he checked it as usual, and found nothing abnormal, so Gu Qing started to work.

Because the mirror has not been polished for a long time, and the quality of colored glaze is not very good.It took Gu Qing half a day to grind out the first satisfactory lens. With the first success, the rest will be relatively easy.

In the end, Gu Qing produced six lenses with acceptable quality.

Gu Qing used these lenses as materials to make a simple magnifying device.

Then he used this device to observe the hilt of the sword, and his eyes really felt better, and he could see more clearly, and the information he got was more detailed and rich.

From this, Gu Qing was finally able to confirm that the texture of the hilt is divided into two types: natural and artificial.

It's just that Gu Qing still has a hard time understanding who used what method to add a texture similar to the natural texture on the hilt.

These textures are too subtle, and similar to the inherent natural textures on the hilt, unless someone else has Gu Qing's eyesight, and grinds out a good lens to make a device that can magnify things by more than [-] times, and compare different ones deliberately. Texture, otherwise it is difficult to detect the strangeness.

Of course, it’s not easy to talk about things in the practice world. There must be people who are more perverted than Gu Qing imagined, but those who study sword hilts in the Red Society probably don’t have this ability.

Gu Qing drew a part of the selected texture and observed it.

"Those textures should be some kind of special symbol."

Gu Qing spent the next two days working on the hilt of his sword, and finally got 55 complex symbols.Every symbol can evoke the wonderful feeling that Gu Qing felt when he saw the hilt of the sword.

However, compared to the hilt itself, this wonderful feeling seems to be much weaker.

He also tasted it carefully to be aware of it.

The symbols are too complicated and have a unique charm, it took Gu Qing some time to remember the symbols, but he had never seen this kind of symbols before, so it was difficult for him to do it for a while.

When he wrote the symbols, he didn't feel any strangeness, so Gu Qing wanted to start with the meaning of the symbols.After some analysis, Gu Qing believes that the symbol is likely to be a kind of writing, similar to bronze script and seal script, with unique meanings.

So after Gu Qing made sure to remember the symbols, he destroyed the paper on which the symbols were recorded.

Next, Gu Qing wandered around various bookstores in the city, but found no clues about symbols. He even bought a book on ancient writing from a bookseller at a high price, but still got nothing.

Gu Qing finally decided to write a letter to ask Xu Slowly, she might be able to help him.It just so happens that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so it's not bad to write a letter to say hello.

"Miss Xu, how are you doing recently? Everything is fine here, I don't know how it is in your place..."

After writing a lot of polite words, Gu Qing read it himself, hey, it’s not his style.

"Do you recognize this 'symbol'? If so, please advise."

Gu Qing still chose the direct and straightforward way.

Of course he wouldn't put all his hopes on Xu Slowly, and he planned to go to Mr. Fang later, to see if he could use Mr. Fang's relationship to go to the official library, and he could also ask He Qing.

But asking He Qing is a bit troublesome. After all, if He Qing knows the origin of the symbols, and the symbols are related to practice, he will inevitably ask.

Therefore, He Qing's side is Gu Qing's last choice.

Gu Qing took the letter to the tailor shop in the city - Slow Embroidery.

The clerk inside recognized him, obviously Xu Huan had given instructions.After Gu Qing explained his purpose, the clerk received the letter and explained that they were Xu Ranman's maid, and the maid who received the letter was named Xiao Lian, and asked Gu Qing to come and pick up the letter tomorrow morning.

This made Gu Qing a little surprised, because Xu slowly returned to Yunzhou, which is thousands of miles away from Jiangcheng, can it be so fast?Gu Qing guessed that they should have used some kind of special communication method.

But Gu Qing didn't want to explore this yet, so he left after saying a few words of thanks.

Since he could get a reply tomorrow, Gu Qing was not in a hurry to find Mr. Fang, and tomorrow happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival.

He thought about it, no matter whether he would trouble Mr. Fang tomorrow or not, he should bring some gifts to visit.

I am planning to go to an antique shop, and by the way, I would like to ask if the restoration of the real painting is yellow.

When Gu Qing arrived at the antique shop, the shopkeeper of the horse was indeed there. Seeing Gu Qing, he sighed and said, "Young Master Gu, that matter is considered scandalous. I am planning to find a free time to inform you."

"What happened?" It was a pity that Gu Qing lost a chance to make money.Don't look at him making a lot of money every time, it's because of good luck, the people he meets are either rich or expensive, and he doesn't regard money as money.

Shopkeeper Ma said: "I don't know who offended my boss. I just returned to the mansion yesterday, and was assassinated in the evening, and even the painting was lost. I heard from a familiar manager in the mansion that Yunzhou Tianjue will be seen immediately." There is going to send a Taoist over there to thoroughly investigate this matter, and I am afraid that I will stay in town for a while in the future. I guess I will be called for questioning at that time, and I don’t know if there will be any disasters."
