  Chapter 239 The Glazed Crescent Moon Appears (Part 2)

   Touching the scroll lightly, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred in his mind.

   This painting was given by the mysterious woman, and maybe it was also made by her. If you can find some clues from the painting, you might be able to know something.

  The picture scroll is a sketch, with some colors added, presumably the woman is also very likely to be from modern times.

  It comes from modern times, and it can draw her and her mother. Is that mysterious woman really her mother?

  Knowing that this painting was specially handed over to the ancestors of shopkeeper Guo more than 800 years ago, Jun Li knew that perhaps his mother had not traveled to the time and space 800 years ago.

  Mother, where are you? Who is that mysterious woman, is she her mother? What does it mean to let shopkeeper Guo's ancestors pass down this painting to her? Could it be that the woman is so sure that this painting will fall into her hands in the future?

   Pick up the scroll and look at it carefully.

  The more he looked at it, the more weird feeling came to Jun's heart.

  I didn't think there was anything special about this painting just now, but looking at it carefully now, why does it feel familiar?

familiar?

   Jun Li frowned, feeling something flashed in his mind, but he couldn't grasp it no matter what.

   Sighed slightly, but suddenly looked at the lower right corner of the scroll.

  There are things she is familiar with that she can no longer be familiar with.

   No wonder, just now I feel that this painting is very familiar.

  The slender fingers gently caressed the lower right corner of the scroll, where there was a faint black mark...

Since she was a child, she likes to put a drop of ink on the lower right corner of every painting she draws. It is so faint that you can't detect it unless you look carefully. Even if you do, you will only think it is ink dripping on it accidentally That's all.

  This habit, even the mother does not know.

   Take a closer look at the brushwork and style of the sketch on the scroll. Junli couldn't help but smile wryly, it's been a long time since I've drawn, and now I can't even recognize the pictures I drew...

  That's right, this painting was drawn by Junli.

  When her mother was there, she taught her to sketch.

  My mother is a master of oil painting, ink painting and sketching. Once a painting was bought for tens of millions. Grandpa has been proud of this for a long time. Although tens of millions are not worth mentioning to grandpa, as soon as he sees those old friends, he will show off to them how powerful his daughter is.

  It’s just that later, my mother met someone who was unkind, and met Jun Chiyo...

  The painting in front of her is undoubtedly from her hand, but the key point is, when did she paint such a painting?

  Junli put his head on his head to think, but he couldn't figure out why, so he had to pick up the scroll and observe carefully again.

  The scroll is very simple, but Jun Li's eyes suddenly settled on the two slender sandalwood sticks above and below the scroll.

  In this era, almost every picture scroll is fixed with two wooden sticks at the top and bottom to prevent the picture scroll from being difficult to carry.

   Gently tap the upper and lower incense sandalwood, which is hollow.

  Observing the surroundings of the fragrant sandalwood, after finding a small hole in the middle of the fragrant sandalwood above, Junli smiled.

   Instructed the hidden guard to find a long and thin wooden bar for her, and slowly pushed it in towards the hole.

   Pulling it out again, a small cork fell from the side of the sandalwood, revealing the dark and narrow space inside the sandalwood.

   It shook slightly, but there was no sound. Junli was puzzled, and stretched out his little finger to poke inside.

   When he came across a wooden object, Jun Li wanted to pull it out, but he couldn't pull it out.

   Frowning, but suddenly bumped into a slight bump, Junli paused, and gently pressed down on the bump. .

  click—

  The subtle sound raised a faint expectation in Jun's heart, and even she herself didn't know what she was expecting.

   After a while, about the time for a cup of tea, everything is still the same as before, except for the clicking sound just now.

  Junli is depressed, what's going on? Could it be that it has been too long, so the institutions have fallen into disrepair?

   Just as he was thinking this way, there was another click next to his ear.

  Jun Li stared at the hole in the middle of the sandalwood, but still didn't respond.

   After a while, there were several clicking sounds one after another. Jun Li looked at the dark hole, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

   If it doesn’t work, she cuts off the broken wood. Of course, this is the worst policy. After all, she is still reluctant to destroy the portrait of her mother and herself, even if it is not the image, but only a part of the painting...

   Click!

   There was another sound, Jun Li pursed his lips, and looked helplessly at the hole.

  Looking at this, Junli was pleasantly surprised to find that a small agarwood box was ejected from the hole and slid in front of Junli.

  Not in a hurry to open the agarwood box, but carefully looked at the box, seeing that there was nothing on the surface of the box, Jun Li then stretched out his hand, and slowly opened the agarwood box.

  I thought it would be difficult to open, but I didn’t expect the box to open automatically as soon as my hand touched it.

   His eyes fell on the agarwood box, and what he saw was a simple, but gorgeous and elegant light blue bracelet. On the bracelet are transparent bodies like crystals, but inside there is a blue liquid like sea water, the blue is pure, the blue is charming, and the blue is like the deep sky, which is extraordinarily beautiful.

  Jun Li couldn't help reaching out to pick up the bracelet, but he didn't want to feel like he was being shocked by an electric shock. As soon as he let go, the blue bracelet slipped from his hand in an instant.

  Seeing the beautiful blue liquid dangling in the transparent and weak transparent crystal, Junli quickly reached out to catch it, afraid that the transparent crystal would break when it fell on the ground, and the beautiful blue liquid inside would spill out.

  Unexpectedly, the bracelet was not broken when it fell on the ground, it just made a crisp sound, and then lay quietly on the ground without any damage.

  Seeing the blue liquid swaying gently in the transparent crystal, like waves beating against the shore, quietly exuding a seductive beauty.

  Junli was instantly attracted by this beautiful blue, and his whole body seemed to be lost in that deep blue.

   "Goo-goo-"

  I don't know what kind of bird's call resounded in the dark night, making Jun Li tremble, and he came back to his senses in an instant.

  Looking down at the blue bracelet on the ground, he murmured, "I didn't expect a bracelet to have the power to charm people..."

   Squat down and pick up the light blue bracelet on the ground. This time, there is no feeling like being shocked by an electric shock just now. What is touched is a cold and warm feeling.

  Jun Li likes this bracelet very much, but this bracelet is a bit evil, so he gave up the idea of ​​wearing it on his wrist.

   Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of a yellowish note in the agarwood box. Jun Li fixed his eyes, picked up the note, and only wrote two short sentences on it.

   Glass crescent.

   Sincerity does not pay someone with a heart.
