One hundred and fifty children's house
"That's where the Tong family lives?" Qiu Ning took a few steps forward and looked carefully, "It's very different from what I imagined, I thought it was a thatched house, but the one in front of me didn't look like it at all." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
"Who said that a reclusive must live in a thatched hut." Zhou Yanbo continued to walk forward, "Don't be fooled by subjective thoughts. β
"Hey, what do you mean, Yanbo." "It's uncomfortable to listen to your tone as if it weren't subjectively influenced. β
"Of course not, but I try my best to avoid this kind of problem, so when I meet strangers, I never trust people's first impressions, because first impressions are wrong."
"Sounds reasonable."
Ten minutes later, everyone came to the door of Tong's house.
"From a closer look, it's even more spectacular." Qiu Ning said, "Bamboo curtains, eaves corridors, courtyards, flowers and plants, small waterfalls, where this place looks like a hermit lived, it is simply a paradise." β
"Yes, if it weren't for my identity, I would have liked to live here." Zhou Yanbo said and stepped forward and knocked on the door.
After a while, the door was pushed open, and a young man in coarse cloth clothes asked behind the door, "Who are you?" β
"May I ask if Mr. Tong Jingye is here?"
The young man looked at Zhou Yanbo, and then said, "Please wait. Then he closed the door.
"This man is really cautious." Zhou Fengxue said.
"That's as it should be." Qiu Ning said, "Although it is a seclusion, but in the troubled times of the Warring States, it is not wrong to be cautious, who knows what kind of person is standing in front of you, Yanbo, you just said 'don't believe people's first feelings' Now I absolutely agree." β
"It always feels like you're scolding me."
After a while, the door was pushed open again, and the young man said, "Father, please." Then he pushed all the doors open, turned sideways to the side, and invited Zhou Yanbo and a few people to come in.
A few people followed the young man to the verandah, Zhou Yanbo stopped, and said to a few people behind, "Next to this is the courtyard, you can wait here now, I will go to see Mr. Tong alone." β
"Is there no problem?" Su Yu'er asked.
"It's okay, just enjoy the scenery here." Then Zhou Yanbo looked at the young man in front of him and seemed to ask, "There is no problem, right?" β
The young man nodded, and then continued to walk forward, Zhou Yanbo followed closely, and Zhou Fengxue and the others followed Zhou Yanbo's instructions and went to the courtyard on the side to wait.
The young man took Zhou Yanbo to a hut and opened the bamboo curtain to invite Zhou Yanbo in.
Zhou Yanbo said thank you, walked into the hut, and saw an old man sitting cross-legged in front of him, although he was already full of white hair, but his face was dignified, and he could not see any signs of old age.
"It's not like a hermit, it's more like an immortal." Zhou Yanbo thought about it, and then walked forward and saluted: "Junior Zhou Yanbo, I have seen Mr. Tong." β
"Let's do it."
"Thank you, Mr. Tong." Zhou Yanbo also sat cross-legged opposite Tong Jingye.
"The young man came here to let the old man out of the mountain?" Tong Jingye went straight to the point.
"Mr. Tong is really sharp, and that's what the younger generation means." Zhou Yanbo said with a smile.
"Huh." Tong Jingye also laughed, "Because the young man is not the first to invite the old man out of the mountain." β
"But the younger generation is willing to be the last one."
"It seems that the young boy is determined to win."
"If a person has no confidence in himself, how dare he have confidence in others."
"That's good, but ......" Tong Jingye shook his head, "The old man doesn't want to go out of the mountain, so the young man should go back." β
"Oh?"
"Please forgive the old man for saying bluntly, the Mengsun family, the Han family and the Xun family have all been here, and they have all been rejected by the old man one by one, so don't waste your efforts."
"It's a real headache." Zhou Yanbo said, "But Mr. Tong, I haven't heard what you just said, the younger generation is a cat, and once it sticks to someone, it is difficult to get rid of it." β
"Is the young man threatening the old man?"
"How dare you." Zhou Yanbo hurriedly waved his hand, "Please don't say that, it's just that the juniors still have a lot of things to do, and the time is urgent, so it doesn't take too much time to come here, so I come with a must-do mentality, if I have time, don't say it's 'three visits to the thatched house', even 'three hundred visits to the thatched house' I am also willing." β
Seeing that Tong Jingye didn't answer, Zhou Yanbo stood up and said, "It's a little long, I'm afraid that the younger friends are a little anxious, please allow me to avoid it for a while." Then he left the hut and walked out into the courtyard.
"Brother Qingliu, what are you writing?" Zhou Yanbo went to the courtyard and saw Gongye Qingliu holding a pen and writing a book, so he stepped forward and asked.
"Oh? Yanbo came out. Gongye Qingliu stopped the pen in his hand, "This is a travelogue, I just went around a circle, and I am writing what I see and feel into a travelogue, everywhere I go, I will do this, the winter of the Gozen Mountain, it is really a special taste." But you, how's it going, it's settled? β
The rest of the people also watched, waiting for Zhou Yanbo's answer.
Zhou Yanbo shook his head: "Not yet, the old gentleman is a little stubborn, I will withdraw first, I can't stalemate with the old gentleman, there is still room for such words." β
After a while, Tong Jingye invited Zhou Yanbo into the hut, and Zhou Yanbo entered again and sat in his original position.
Tong Jingye looked at Zhou Yanbo and asked, "Dare to ask where the young man belongs?" β
"The tenth generation of the younger Yihu Zhou family is the master."
"Guli family, if the old man is not mistaken, the Yihu Zhou family has no power, could it be ......"
"Now it's just a seed that needs nutrients."
"So, what are the conditions for the young boy to invite me out of the mountain? You must know that when the Xun family invited me to go out of the mountain, I refused. β
Zhou Yanbo shook his head: "Although I don't know what the conditions they offer, I know that this is not something I can afford." β
Tong Jingye nodded, "So I want to hear the conditions offered by the young man." β
Zhou Yanbo thought for a while, "There are only two conditions I can give Mr. Tong: one is the smile of the people in the territory; One is etiquette and morality, and the most basic ones are these two. β
Tong Jingye was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "This condition is very interesting. Then he looked at Zhou Yanbo, "And this condition is more difficult to guarantee than any of the previous ones." β
"There are difficulties and challenges, and in this reality, comfort means destruction."
Tong Jingye nodded and said in an appreciative tone: "Okay, very good, you are the second person to make the old man's heart move." β
"The second?"
"The first one is Han."
"Then why didn't Mr. Tong accept the Han family?"
"Because they don't have the conditions that the old man offered, of course it's the same for you."
"Conditions?"
"That's right, if you really want the old man to go out of the mountain, you still need a condition, which is also a necessary condition."
"Mr. Tong, let's talk about it."
"The old man needs you to get something, which can be used as my reward for going out of the mountain."
"What is it?"
"Young boy, listen well, there is a place called Qingqi Villa, there is a treasure in the village, its value is immeasurable, even the value of the three cities is not as good as it."
"It's worth a fortune."
"Yes, the old man wants to ask you to take this treasure, as long as you can get it, the old man will go out of the mountain with you."
"Is Mr. Tong serious?"
"Never break your promise, the old man has said everything he should say, what to do next, the old man has no right to ask." After speaking, Tong Jingye made a gesture of sending off guests.
Zhou Yanbo didn't want to say anything, so he left the hut, and then called everyone in the courtyard and left Tong's house together.
Zhou Yanbo and his entourage walked and admired the descending mountain, and came to the farmer to take out the carriage.
"Well, less lord." Zhou Fengxue asked, "Looking at your expression, it seems that you have succeeded." β
"Half and half." Zhou Yanbo told the people present exactly the conditions proposed by Tong Jingye just now.
"This old gentleman Tong is really strange, and he still wants someone else's treasure." "This is the first time I've heard about it. β
"Yes, since it is a treasure, how can the other party give it easily." Su Yu'er said, "If you think about it, you can understand it, could it be that Mr. Tong didn't want to go out of the mountain and did it on purpose?" β
In fact, after hearing this, everyone thought so.
"It's useless to think too much." Zhou Yanbo got into the carriage and said, "Whether it's true or not, as long as you get to Qingqi Villa, you will know, who of you knows where this villa is?" β
But Zhou Yanbo saw that everyone had confused expressions, and after a pause, he said, "No, doesn't anyone among you know?" β
Su Yu'er and Qiu Ning both shook their heads; Zhou Fengxue also said that he didn't know; And Gongye Qingliu shrugged.
"It's really funny, I want to get something, and I don't even know where it is." Zhou Yanbo smiled helplessly.
"Why don't you ......," Zhou Fengxue proposed, "go to the Imperial Front Town on the official road and ask?" Somebody will always know. β
"Good proposal." Gongye Qingliu said with a smile, "Just go and take a look at the folk customs there." β
Zhou Yanbo drove the carriage to Yuqian Town, everyone went separately to ask, and nearly half an hour later, everyone gathered at a restaurant in the town.
"How?" Zhou Yanbo asked, at least he didn't gain anything, the same, everyone shook their heads helplessly.
"What's next?"
"Let's go back to North Lake first." Zhou Yanbo said, "But let's eat first. β
"Back to North Lake?" Zhou Fengxue said, "Why, what if that mountain villa is near here?" Wouldn't that be an extra trip? β
"Impossible." Zhou Yanbo shook his head, "No one here knows the place of Qingqi Villa, which proves that the villa is not here and its surroundings, if you want to know the location of this villa, you can only go back to Beihu, after all, it is at the level of the prefecture, and some people may know."
Qiu Ning nodded, "That's a good point. β
"What about you, Brother Qingliu." Zhou Yanbo turned to Gongsun Qingliu, "We are going back to Beihu, what are you going to do?" β
"Me." Gongye Qingliu said, "I want to be with you, and I always feel that something interesting will happen with you." β
"Yes." Zhou Yanbo smiled, "Welcome." β
