Chapter 383
His eyes suddenly became sharp and dangerous, as if he wanted to probe into the depths of my soul: "Are you familiar with the situation in Haisha Kingdom?"

That kind of look might scare ten strong men to death, but it didn't do much harm to me. I casually said: "Familiar? Oh, it's not enough, otherwise, why didn't I see that the person I was going to marry was actually A wolf."

He was silent, and then said: "You will know, you still haven't seen clearly." He asked again: "Tell me, how are you going to split that mountain?"

I opened the small door of the birdcage, and watched the young eagle flying out of the window happily, farther and farther away.I said, "Give me the freedom to come and go, and I will tell you how."

"I won't exchange this." Lin Xiao decisively ended the topic, turned his gaze back to the blueprint without hesitation, continued to study, and stopped looking at me.

I didn't expect him to be so difficult to deal with, so I didn't force it. I walked back to the desk and continued to read my book, "Since you feel that the pleasure of imprisoning me alone is more important than the lives of [-] people, then, as you wish."

Lin Xiao seems to have regarded me as air and ignored me.

It was raining harder and harder outside, with thunder and lightning. As I read the book, my mood gradually became weird. I felt that the words on the scroll turned into a picture of people being killed by floods and embankments.I suddenly felt that I was a villain who couldn't save me.

I finally couldn't help it, sighed, put down the scroll, and I said, "Forget it, let me tell you, dig a patio."

"Yes! Digging a patio!" Lin Xiao said in unison, clapping the case.

We both looked at each other reflexively.The eyes are full of surprise at the other party's thoughts.

I said: "It turns out that you are not a gold jewel. You said it well." After thinking about it, I laughed again and asked, "How do you chisel it?"

As if thinking of something, his sharp eyes darkened again.

I felt a little proud that no matter how wise he is, some problems cannot be solved by people of this era.Although I am also a person of this era, the knowledge I learned from my mother is not.

Seeing his deep thinking, I deliberately said: "It will take at least three months to dig out a cave from both the north and south sides of Feiyu Mountain. For patios, craftsmen go down to the patio and dig on both sides, so that four sides can work at the same time, and the progress of the project can be at least doubled. If more patios are dug and more surfaces are started, the progress can be improved. It's many times faster. It's hard for the prince to come up with such a wonderful idea."

Perhaps because he was so absorbed in the research of engineering, Lin Xiao didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in my tone, he stared at me in surprise: "You actually came up with this method after hearing a few words from Xiao Fan?"

Heh, he thought he was the only one who was smart in the whole world, and everyone else was idiot!However, it is also reasonable for him to think this way. Didn't I just act a complete idiot under him before!

The sarcasm in my tone was even worse: "Is there any need to think about it? Everyone should understand." Although I said this, I still admire Lin Xiao's mind. He can think of the method I read in the 21st century book. It's not easy.

He still didn't pay attention to my ridicule.Just stare at me.It seems that I want to see a flower on my face, oh no, there is a flower on my face.

I didn't want to go around in circles with him anymore. I went to the blueprint and pointed to the non-yu mountain, "But the site for digging the courtyard must be on the same straight line as the digging points for the caves on the north and south sides, otherwise it would be a waste of detours and consume a lot of engineering. And Feiyu Mountain is not only high in mountains and deep in forests, but also like a maze. People will get lost when they enter the mountains and forests, let alone determine their orientation. This is one of your biggest difficulties now, right? Your second difficulty is how to break through the unique hardness of Feiyu Mountain Incomparably non-jade. Am I right?"

He asked me with burning eyes: "You... really have a way?"

I pulled out a hairpin on my head. It was a chopstick-shaped hairpin with uniform thickness at both ends, with a dragon engraved on half and a phoenix engraved on the other half. There was a concave ring in the middle of the hairpin.

I pulled out another strand of my hair, tied one end of the strand to the ring in the middle, then picked up the other end of the strand, and the hairpin was hung horizontally in the air horizontally to the ground.

He looked at me puzzled.

I moved the hairpin to make it spin like a top, and when it stopped, I asked Lin Xiao to observe.I flip the hairpin again and wait for it to stop.Let him observe again.

He really understood: "No matter how you turn it, the phoenix head always faces the door, and the dragon head always faces the window."

"It's the crested head that always faces south, and the dragon's head that always faces north," I said.

"Why does this make sense?" He was quite surprised and extremely puzzled.

I put away my hairpin, took a step back, and returned to indifference and alienation: "I can teach him to fish, but I can't teach him to fish. With this hairpin, I just want you to know that I can make an instrument for you I can determine the correct orientation of the courtyard. I can also make a tool to help you split the hard non-jade in the mountains. But I will not tell an outsider the mystery of it.”

In fact, the reason is very simple, because my hairpin is made of magnets, and one of the tools I will make is a compass. There is nothing mysterious that cannot be told to others.But I said this on purpose, and I saw the dark color I expected to see appeared in his eyes again, which gave me another taste of the pleasure of revenge.Lin Xiao, one day I will let you understand what you destroyed with your own hands.What have you lost!
Although I can't completely cut off my obsession with him for the time being, I will never give my heart to him again.I have a clear distinction between reason and emotion.

I went on to say: "The tool I want to make is called Sinan, also called a compass. It always points to the south. With it, no matter how deep the dense forest is, you will not lose your way. How can you find the direction of the courtyard? You are so smart. I don't need to teach you anything."

I pulled out the large 12-carat diamond ring that my mother gave me, and lightly scratched the surface of the jade case with the cut surface of the diamond, and a deep crack appeared on the jade table.

He was very surprised: "Isn't that an ordinary gemstone?"
