Chapter 211: Slap in the face

ps: I want to rush to the top ten of the urban classification, and there are still some monthly passes left, please support me, please.

The young man remembered that the person was clearly the young man who asked him if he could attend the banquet in the afternoon between the temples of Wanshou Palace, when he sent an invitation to Lizhi......

Thinking of this, the young man's face turned a little blue and a little pale, unpredictable.

"You ......"

Similar to the reaction of the young man, the expressions of Chen Beixue and the others were strange, but they were different.

When Lychee saw Qi Xiang, she was surprised for a while, and her first reaction was to bow her head shyly, as if she was still a little ashamed and uneasy, and moved her body back directly, making a gesture of avoidance.

As for the mysterious woman, her eyes lit up slightly, and she turned around Qi Xiang, but her attention was on Lychee, watching her reaction with interest.

It was Ge Hug, who was the most direct, stared at it, and then spoke: "I said who is so poor and generous, and directly offered the welcome incense to attract us, it turned out to be you." ”

Welcome incense is precious, there is no doubt about it.

Although among the people present, excluding young people and others, the rest of the people will be equipped with welcome incense, but after the incense is configured, whether they are willing to use it and share it with others generously is another matter.

And the welcome incense, as the name suggests, is used to welcome distinguished guests.

Chen Beixue and the others went up the mountain, smelled the aroma on the way, and after making sure that it was not the arrangement of the young master's banquet, these people changed their routes one after another and ran to the barren mountain.

The reason for this is also very simple and clear.

Welcome incense is not only the fragrance of welcoming guests, but also a signal, a signal to attract friends.

Legend has it that ancient monks practiced in the mountains all year round, and sometimes felt very lonely. Want to talk to someone. Well, the saying of the year should be called talking about the scriptures.

But in ancient times. It wasn't as convenient as it is now, as long as you have a mobile phone and a computer. Connect with people from all over the world.

All in all, due to the constraints of the conditions, it was very difficult for the ancients to contact friends. If you have a big family and a big business, you can also raise a few small servants or something, and let them send letters to friends.

But a solitary ascetic does not have this condition. And as masters, they can't roar at the mountain. So I was lonely, so I had to go out obediently and go to the next mountain to visit my friends.

Just doing so, there is also a downside. It's just that sometimes I come to the door and find that people are in retreat, so I can't force my way in. Come for nothing, go back honestly.

In this case, it is natural that some people will learn to be smart. I feel that instead of going out stupidly, it is better to wait for the rabbit and let people take the initiative to come to the door. So after someone pondered. Inspired by the beacon signal of war, he invented the welcome incense.

As soon as the welcome incense is burned, the smoke drifts for ten miles.

The monks who lived in seclusion on the hills, when they smelled this breath, understood that someone was in for a treat...... cough, anyway, when I smell the fragrance, I will naturally be warmly received, and there will be food and drink.

Over time, the welcome incense has become a short-distance communication method in the monk world.

So Chen Beixue and others. He did not hesitate to abandon the banquet of the young master and gathered on the barren mountain. Reasons for doing so. It's nothing more than four words, people in the same way.

The weight of the same way. It's much more important than any banquet.

Of course, Chen Beixue and the others were also a little curious, and they didn't know who burned incense to attract visitors and brought them together. It wasn't until Qi Xiang appeared that a group of people suddenly realized.

"You ......"

Chen Beixue's eyes fell on Qi Xiang, and with a rare sense of déjà vu, he asked directly, "Have we met?" ”

"Yes."

Qi Xiang nodded, his mood was somewhat complicated, with ups and downs, but in the end he turned into a smile, and he didn't hide it, but reminded him: "Half a year ago, I sold you a pair of walnuts and a book of incense books......

"Walnuts, incense!"

Chen Beixue's eyes froze, and without any warning, the dust in his hand suddenly waved. The soft dust silk is like a flexible steel whip, splitting the head and covering the face, breaking through the air.

With a whistling, the dust is erratic, flexible like a snake, unpredictable, and rolls up the shadow of the whip in the sky.

The others were shocked, and their spirits immediately lifted again.

An individual, watching intently, his eyes full of curiosity. What is curious is not only Chen Beixue's actions, but also Qi Xiang's ability to cope.

But the result was destined to disappoint them, only to see the whip shadows in the sky, with a gap in the gap, one after another, bypassing Qi Xiang's body and passing around him.

The fierce wind was sharper than the edge of a sword, not only easily breaking flowers and grass, but even silently leaving deep marks on some hard stones.

However, the immersive Qi Xiang seemed to be frightened, stunned, standing still, but fortunately safe and sound.

Chen Beixue seemed to be just tempting, and did not mean to hurt people. After one move, the whip shadow dispersed. He also put away the silver silk dust, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"What purpose did you bring us in?"

At the same time, Chen Beixue opened her mouth to ask, her demeanor was calm, as if it was not him who started beating people.

"Chen Shao, he's here to make trouble......"

Without waiting for Qi Xiang to answer, the young man next to him also woke up from his stunned state. He also realized the purpose of Qi Xiang's appearance here, so he was naturally very anxious in his heart, and couldn't help but shout.

I didn't send out invitations in the afternoon, but I came to slap my face in the evening, so vicious......

The young man forcibly held back the uneasiness in his heart, and said urgently: "Chen Shao, this person has an unknown origin, and he appeared here inexplicably, maybe it is...... Spies! You can't easily believe his words. ”

Chen Beixue and the others turned a deaf ear to the young man's words, and just looked at Qi Xiang, as if waiting for his answer.

"Of course there is a purpose......

Qi Xiang was also very straightforward, with a smile on his face, and explained: "I went to Wanshou Palace today...... Well, with lychee...... By the way, and this girl......"

Qi Xiang pointed to the lychee, and the mysterious woman next to him.

At this moment, Lychee lowered her head and rubbed the corners of her clothes timidly. As for the mysterious woman, the side is shrouded in a hazy mist, and her graceful figure looms.

However, the two of them nodded very face-savingly. It was confirmed that Qi Xiang was not lying.

Especially the mysterious woman, she asked with a smile: "I left first, and then I went back again." You took the contents of the statue in the temple, right? ”

"Yes......" Qi Xiang admitted frankly: "The statue has a box. In addition to the banknotes, there is also a page of letterhead......"

"That's right."

The mysterious woman nodded slightly, and then she was silent, very calm.

Not only was she calm, but Chen Bixue and Ge Bao next to her were even more calm, and their expressions remained unchanged, as if they were listening to irrelevant things.

It was the tall young man. His face suddenly became very ugly, and he couldn't help but rush over and shout, "That page of letterhead belongs to my master......

"Your master?" Qi Xiang turned his head, his tone was inexplicable, and he asked lightly, "Who?" ”

Suddenly, the young man's chest was tight, and a wave of anger rushed straight to the heavenly spirit cover, his qi and blood surged, his face was red, and his whole person seemed to be about to explode. But after coming into contact with Qi Xiang's cold gaze. He felt as if a basin of ice water had fallen from the sky, directly extinguishing his anger, and his body and mind were cold.

All of a sudden. The young man was a little frightened, and his voice was trembling: "The thing is really my master's, he stored the thing in the bank, and originally planned to exhibit it at the calligraphy and painting awards, but he didn't expect it to lose his ......"

"Oh."

Qi Xiang was suddenly stunned, no wonder Chen Beixue and the others came to the banquet to give face so much. The person who dared to set up a banquet was the owner of the remnants of Xu Xiake's travelogue.

Be sure. The identity of the owner of this object does not seem to be simple.

But......

Qi elephant squint. chuckle: "What does this have to do with me?" ”

"Huh?"

The young man was stunned and at a loss.

"Your master's things are lost. Go to the police to investigate, don't have any banquets, it's a pure waste of time. ”

Qi Xiang's tone was very sincere, and he kindly suggested: "Take the money for the banquet as a bounty for the detective, it is estimated that the things will be accounted for soon." ”

"You ......" The anger in the young man's heart couldn't help but surge.

"Haha, this little brother is right, this is a good idea, why didn't I think of it before. Hang the bonus directly, engage in rewards, and are afraid that they will not do their best? ”

In the hearty laughter, a middle-aged man with a burly figure, a strong appearance, and a very domineering and flamboyant aura walked to the top of the mountain surrounded by a group of people.

"Boss ......"

When the young man heard the sound, it was as if he had seen a relative, and he ran away with tears in his eyes.

"Smack!"

The slap flew up, and a few teeth splashed down with the blood in the weeds of the barren mountain. Before the young man could howl, he covered his cheeks, which were as red and swollen as leavened dough, and rolled his eyes and fainted.

The middle-aged man didn't look at the young man at all, so he walked over directly, with a self-righteous and kind smile on his face, which was actually very scary, and said politely: "Blame Luo for having no way to control it, let a few people laugh, sorry, sorry!" ”

At this moment, Ge Bao, who had been silent, suddenly asked, "Are you Luo Shoushan?" ”

"It's Luo!"

The middle-aged man with a meaty face and an amiable smile always makes people feel full of disobedience.

"As far as I know, there is a very powerful leader in the Xiangxi Platoon Gang, who seems to be called Luo Shoushan!" Ge Bao looked questioning, but his tone was very affirmative: "It's you, right?" ”

Luo Shoushan smiled, there was a little smug in his eyes, he probably didn't expect that his prestige had also spread to Jinling. Of course, he has a rough appearance, but he is coarse and fine, and he didn't take long to be proud, so he humbly said: "A little stigma is not enough to worry about......"

Ge Bao was too lazy to listen to nonsense, and directly interrupted: "You are not in Xiangxi to be your own soil emperor, what are you doing in Jinling?" Also, what about those few pages of manuscripts? ”

"By the way, I heard that the relationship between your platoon gang and Wanshou Palace doesn't seem to be very good, and you've been fighting back and forth......"

Ge hugged his chin and pondered: "Jinling and Xiangxi, separated by tens of thousands of miles, you still continue to fight, it's really idle." ”

Hearing this, Qi Xiang and the others immediately felt a little more vigilant in their hearts...... (To be continued)
