Master Lin Xiao had nothing to do today, after eating, he found a few old friends to drink tea, and in the evening, he walked back to the shop opposite Taixue to buy some lo-mei and buy jar wine, and was ready to go home and drink two glasses with Lin Xiao. WwW is worth your collection. LＷXＳ５２０。 ＣＯＭ

It's just that the old man came out of the shop, and he found a few carriages parked at the entrance of Taixue, and he was a little puzzled - Taixue can't go to class today, who is inside?

When the old master walked into Taixue, he heard that it was very lively, in addition to the sound of "bang-la-la-la" flipping books, there were also vocal discussions, and when I listened to it, I heard a "fishtail ......"

Lin Fuzi was confused - what kind of fish tail? Cooking?

When I walked in the door, I saw that in the courtyard in front of the study, there were several tables, and there were a lot of books piled up on the tables.

The old man looked carefully, Bao Yan, Pang Yu, Ouyang Chunhua, Zhao Lan, Yiyi, Wang Qi, and Jiangnan were all ...... Of course, Lin Xiao is also there.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Fuzi asked curiously.

Everyone turned around with a "brush" and said in unison, "Master." ”

Lin Fuzi wanted to laugh a little, it's good to be young, one or two are alive. The old man walked over to look and saw that all he was reading were local chronicles.

"What are you looking for?" Lin Fuzi knew that this group of students was probably helping Kaifeng Mansion again.

Zhao Lan asked very seriously, "Master, do you know about Yuweidu?" ”

Lin Fuzi touched his beard, "Hmm...... I haven't heard this in a while. ”

After listening to Master Lin's words, everyone raised their heads again and looked at the old man, "Master, have you heard of it?" ”

Lin Fuzi said, "I heard it when I was a child. While speaking, the old man found a chair and sat down, and said, "When I was a child, I went to the northwest with the young master, and I heard a couple quarreling in the tavern, and the woman scolded the man for his death and took the fishtail crossing, and I also specially asked what the fishtail ferry meant, and an old man who was sitting next to me at the time told me that it was a curse, and the fishtail crossing was a ferryhead, and the man who abandoned his wife would be planted in it, and he would never be reborn." ”

"Do you specifically scold men?" Yi asked.

Lin Fuzi said, "It's probably both, it's a kind of swearing unique to husband and wife." ”

"Husband and wife......" The little ones all touched their chins and pondered.

Lin Fuzi was very curious and asked Bao Yan, "What strange case did you encounter in Kaifeng Mansion again?" Let's look up these weird things. ”

Bao Yan told Lin Xiao about the "fishtail pillow" and the male corpse in the well.

The master seemed to be a little surprised, "In the Peacock Lake in the Imperial Garden of the Palace, the fishtail pillow was found?" ”

Bao Yan nodded.

"And then another palace maid hanged herself by Peacock Lake?" Lin Fuzi frowned, "Or is it the family of the victim of the Xu Ji case back then?" ”

Bao Yan then nodded.

Pang Yu stretched out his hand and tugged at Lin Xiao's beard, "Old man, do you know anything?" ”

Lin Fuzi hurriedly covered his beard and patted Pang Yu's hand, "It's not big or small." ”

"Master, tell me what you know." Bao Yan said, "I haven't had a clue about this case. ”

Lin Fuzi looked at everyone and whispered, "About five years ago...... There was a palace maid who committed suicide in Peacock Lake. ”

Everyone looked at each other and was curious, "The palace maid committed suicide?" ”

"It seems like the right time." Pang Yu nodded.

Zhao Lan wondered, "Who committed suicide?" How I haven't heard of it. ”

The master whispered, "How can I say it, this matter did not alarm the emperor, and many people don't know about it...... Only the Queen Mother and a few guards knew. ”

Everyone looked at the Master suspiciously—how do you know?

"That's right." The master said, "That palace maid's name is Scarlet Moon, probably ...... Ten □□? At about this age, she committed suicide by throwing herself into Peacock Lake, and after the case, I was called into the harem. ”

The children all looked at the master with wide eyes, and Yi Yi asked, "Master, do you have anything to do with that palace maid?" ”

Lin Fuzi shook his head, "No, it would not have been so much trouble for a dead palace maid in the imperial garden of the palace, maybe she stumbled and fell?" But this one is different! Before that girl died, she also set up a formation by the Peacock Lake, which was quite evil, so the Queen Mother was a little worried, so she asked me to take a look. Many people don't know about this because the emperor took power not long ago, and he was afraid that someone would make some gossip to disturb the harem, so he kept it hidden. ”

"Oh......" everyone understood.

"And then?" Pang Yu was curious, "What kind of formation did she pose?" ”

The master stretched out his hands, "I don't understand." ”

And they all stared at him.

"And how did you deal with it?" Pang Yu was curious.

Lin Fuzi smiled, "I made up one with the Queen Mother, saying that the palace maid wanted to have a good birth in the next life, so she made a reincarnation array, which has nothing to do with the national fortune and the safety of the family and country, so the Queen Mother was relieved, and this matter passed." ”

"Wow!" The students exploded.

Bao Yan opened his mouth wide, "Master, you actually lied to the Queen Mother!" ”

Lin Xiao amused them, "Then what do you say?" ”

"At least find someone who can recognize the formation!" Zhao Landao.

"What formations, curses, that's all lies!" Lin Fuzi shook his head and said, "You guys think about it!" If this thing really works, then why fight? There are countless witches and wizards in the Western Regions, why can't they defeat the Nine Princes? They were looking for someone to set up a formation at the gate of Hei Fengcheng, but in the end, didn't they still lose? ”

Bao Yan and the others all nodded, "That's ......"

"I have forgotten about this thing for a long time, but when you said it, I felt that the time was appropriate, and it was ......" Lin Fuzi said, reached out and took Lin Xiao's hole flute, and drew a few waves on the sand on the side, to, "I remember that there was a feature of that formation back then, that is, there were such fishtail-like patterns all around!" I thought I had drawn a lot of fishtails, but I didn't think much of it. ”

"Fishtail ......" Bao Yan looked at Pang Yu, "It's a fishtail again!" ”

The little marquis also nodded and said, "Fish tail...... Fishtail...... Braised fish tail ......"

Bao Yan took the book and patted him.

It's just that several others looked up.

"I'm hungry. ”

"Braised fish tail sounds like a meal!" Chunhua also said.

Thereupon...... The students rushed out for dinner.

Lin Fuzi shook his head helplessly, and also got up to go to eat with the students. While walking, the old man recalled the formation back then, and drew it after a while, so that Bao Yan and them could take it back to study.

……

Put down Bao Yan and the others and run to eat without mentioning it, and said that they would return to Zhanzhao.

followed Tianzun, Yin Hou, Xiao Sizi and Xi Gulu to the vicinity of Huangshi Yupu, and Zhanzhao and they found a roof with a better view to ambush.

Looking down from the roof...... The door of the Huangshi jade shop is open, the scale of this jade shop is really not large, in addition to jade, it seems to sell some antiques and the like, at first glance, it is a small business.

In the jade shop, the young man who had fought with the Mei brothers just now was there, and he was rubbing a porcelain plate with his head down, but the old woman was not there.

Tianzun walked into the jade shop, and Yin Hou followed, and the young man kept his head down and wiped the dishes until Xigulu walked in, and the young man looked up.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang recalled that when they fought before, the old woman seemed to call this young man Ayi.

As soon as he stepped through the door, he tripped over the threshold and stumbled...... The little fourth son who was sitting on his shoulder fell.

Xi Gulu stretched out his hand to take it, he was also in a hurry, gently picked up the little fourth son, leaned forward, and then put his head on the door frame, and heard a "click".

Tianzun and Yin Hou both turned back......

I saw that Xigulu kicked the threshold and broke the door frame at the same time, but the little fourth son caught it.

Xigulu didn't feel any pain, and held the little fourth son in front of him to look left and right, and was relieved to find that he was not hurt.

Xiao Sizi stretched out his little hand and rubbed his head, "Does it hurt?" ”

Xigulu really didn't hurt at all, he looked back at the door frame that was shorter than himself, and disgusted his face, "The Central Plains people are not tall because the house is too short!" ”

The little fourth son still tilted his head, "That's the case......"

Higulus nodded.

On the opposite roof, Zhao Pu shook his head helplessly - sure enough, he would get into trouble! The door of the jade shop is bound to pay for it.

Bai Yutang was a little relieved - at least his master hadn't started to get into trouble yet.

Zhan Zhao reminded, "That young man seems to have a bad temper, will he fight with Xigulu?" ”

Zhao Pu and Bai Yutang glanced at each other - if the fight starts immediately, how can they investigate?

The young man looked up at the broken door frame and threshold of his house, staring blankly at Higulus.

The fourth child knew that he was in trouble at a glance, so he hurriedly apologized to the little brother and asked in a low voice, "How much is the door frame?" ”

Ayi finally moved, looked at the little fourth son, and asked Xigulu, "Are you not Han?" ”

Xi Gulu nodded, pointed to the threshold, and said, "My hometown, why do you have this kind of rung......?"

Ayi nodded, "There are indeed many houses in the west that have no threshold, so be careful next time you hold the child." ”

The little fourth son and Xigulu both nodded.

Xigulu put the little fourth son on the ground, and the little fourth son ran over and raised his face and told Ayi that they would pay for breaking the door, but Ayi waved his hand, took a piece of pastry on the table and gave it to him, and said, "It's okay, I'll earn it back if you buy a piece of jade in a while." ”

The fourth child smiled and nodded with him, feeling that this brother was a good man and had a good temper.

Even Xigulu felt that the Central Plains was not all "bad silver"!

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other - this is the Ayi who fought with the three brothers of the Mei family just now? Twin brothers, right? Why is your temper so good?!

Tianzun also felt that this store had a good temper, and Yutang said that it was difficult to deal with, so he spoke, "Yo! Brother. ”

Ayi was stunned for a moment, turned around and saw Tianzun and Yin Hou in the store, was startled, and opened his mouth wide, "You...... When did you two come in? ”

On the opposite roof, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both supported their foreheads, and they understood this feeling best, Yin Hou and Tianzun both appeared so coldly, and they walked without sound at all.

Yin Hou looked at the things outside, the small shop was simple, the jade was genuine, but there were not too many high-quality, with Tianzun's eyes, it was ironclad to look down on, and the road idiot didn't know what to buy here...... What's more, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang are still squatting on the roof opposite, is it staring?

Yin Hou paid attention to this shop and began to look at the furnishings in the store...... At the same time, Yin Hou felt that there should be a yard and other rooms behind this shop. There are other people in the house, and the kung fu is not bad, or rather...... Kung Fu is good!

Yin Hou glanced at Tianzun on the side.

At this time, Tianzun was asking the little brother, "Do you have red jade in your shop?" ”

The little brother seemed a little surprised, and asked Tianzun, "How do you know that there is red jade in my shop?" ”

Tianzun's eyes lit up, "Is there really one?" Sell! ”

The little brother looked Tianzun up and down.

It stands to reason that the jade and antique shops in Kaifeng Mansion are ...... In short, most of the people in this industry know Tianzun, but this Ayi obviously doesn't know. Not only did he not know Tianzun, but he also felt that he didn't know the little fourth son.

"This jade shop has just opened, right?" Zhao Pu also saw some doorways, "This little brother is obviously not a local, and he looks like he has just been here for a long time." ”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both nodded, in addition, they originally thought that he had a quarrel with Mei Tianyun because both sides had bad tempers, but judging from his reaction just now, his temper was quite good, in other words...... Did he deliberately target the Mei family?

Everyone then looked down, and the other party really had a red jade?!

Tianzun proposed to buy cinnabar red jade, and the price was negotiable.

The young man looked at Tianzun's clothes and felt that he should be able to afford it, so he said, "My shop does have cinnabar red jade, but if you want to buy it, you have the conditions!" ”

Tianzun nodded, that means - the condition is that you open!

"First of all, look at the red jade to make a deposit, one hundred taels!" Little Brother said.

Tianzun took out a hundred taels and gave it to him.

Bai Yutang nodded, his master touched a hundred taels more than a copper plate.

Zhan Zhao and Zhao Pu both squinted at him - isn't this what you're used to!

Ayi looked at the silver and said, "If you don't win it, this deposit will not be refunded." ”

Tianzun nodded, but it was also refreshing, "I should accompany you to the door frame money." ”

Ayi put the silver away, and then said, "Look at Hongyu, you have to go into the inner room of the shop to see, my aunt will take you there, after you choose, you are not allowed to negotiate the price, it is a fixed price." ”

Tianzun then nodded.

"In the end." Ayi said, "After the red jade is sold, it will not be returned, and you are not allowed to spread the rumor that it was bought in my store!" ”

Tianzun wondered, "Don't you want to introduce business for you?" ”

Ayi shook his head.

Tianzun didn't care, nodded in agreement.

Yin Hou frowned, where in the world is there such a trade, unless...... Those red jades are coming from the wrong way?

"Do you sell all the jade in your store like this, or is it only this cinnabar red jade that sells like this?" Yin Hou asked.

On the opposite roof, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, who were listening carefully with their ears pricked up, holding their breath and listening carefully with their internal strength, both nodded--they are still waiting for it!

Ayi looked at Yin Hou, shook his head and said, "You don't have to worry about this, do you want to see it?" It's still too late to refund the deposit! ”

"See, see!" Tianzun nodded vigorously.

Ayi patted the door gently.

Soon, there was a sound of footsteps.

Zhan Zhao and the others stared inside the door - aunt? Could it be the old woman?

But as the curtain was lifted, what came out was a middle-aged woman dressed in plain white.

This woman is very elegant and demure, and she has a temperament close to that of Mrs. Bao, and at first glance she is a child of a scholarly family, and her demeanor is also very elegant, and she invites everyone to the door.

The little fourth son pulled Xigulu to walk slowly, so as not to kick the threshold again, and several people left the front hall to go to the back room, and Ayi continued to wipe the dishes.

Zhan Zhao and the others quietly followed, and just as they wanted to go to the room, they heard Yin Hou's internal force coming, telling them to stay away, otherwise they would be discovered.

The three of them quickly turned around and reached a roof farther away.

Why did Yin Hou let them stay away from the surveillance-because after entering the backyard, he felt an inner strength, this is not an ordinary master!

This time, even Tianzun noticed it, and he looked at the small courtyard behind a round stone gate on the side...... The courtyard was densely wooded, and the lush foliage blocked the view, so it was impossible to see who was inside, but an internal force could be felt. Very orthodox, high internal force.

Tianzun subconsciously glanced at Yin Hou - is there such a big master hidden here?

Yin Hou is also curious, but it is not illegal to hide masters, how many masters in this world are hiding and don't want to see people, and he has raised more than 300 such masters in the Demon Palace.

The young woman took Tianzun and the others into a study and asked Tianzun, "Gongzi wants cinnabar and red jade, I have four kinds of jade pendants, jade pendants, rings, and wrenches, as well as raw stones, which one does Gongzi want?" ”

After the young woman finished speaking, Xiao Sizi and Yin Hou both looked at her, and even Tianzun was a little surprised-he has been walking around Kaifeng recently, and basically no one will call him "Gongzi" anymore......

"Isn't my aunt from Kaifeng?" The fourth son asked, "Did you just come to Kaifeng?" ”

The young woman nodded and said, "We came to Kaifeng from the northwest to make a living, and we just arrived half a month ago. ”

"Oh......" Tianzun nodded, "No wonder. ”

Saying that, Tianzun said, "Take them all out, I'll pick a few more." ”

The young woman nodded, and went around behind a screen, and the sound of the drawers being opened was heard.

After a while, the young woman came over with a tray and put it in front of Tianzun and Yin Hou...... I saw that there were ten ruby wrenches, ten ruby rings, and twenty red jade pendants of different shapes in the tray.

Ruby is quite precious, cinnabar red jade is even rarer, Tianzun picked up a wrench and looked at the sun, exclaiming, "It's a good thing!" ”

The young woman nodded, "Childe has vision, our family has been dealing in jade for generations, even if it is in Kaifeng City, my family's jade is the best!" ”

Yin Hou couldn't help but ask, "With this bit of red jade alone, your family can open a big jade shop in the best location in Kaifeng City, why do you find such an inconspicuous place to open a shop, and no one is allowed to introduce business to you?" ”

The woman smiled faintly and said, "Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, and do business in a low-key manner is my family's family motto." ”

For the first time, Tianzun heard that he was going to be low-key in doing business this year.

Yin Hou didn't say much, and asked the woman, "Do you have a white jade bracelet at home?" ”

The woman nodded, "There are many styles of white jade bracelets, which one do you want?" ”

Tianzun and Yin Hou are both a little awkward-Childe......

Yin Hou took out a bracelet from his arms and said, "There were originally two bracelets in this bracelet, and one was broken, can you match them here?" ”

The woman took a piece of silk and paddled her hand, carefully took the jade bracelet and looked at it, and nodded, "This is the best white jade, and the craftsman can make one out of the original stone." ”

Yin Hou asked, "Can you do it here?" ”

The woman nodded.

After Tianzun heard this, he glanced at this side, but he didn't move, and continued to pick the red jade.

Zhan Zhao saw Yin Hou take out a white jade bracelet in the distance, and he "tsk" twice.

"What's that bracelet?" Bai Yutang asked Zhanzhao.

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, "My grandfather helped try the background of that jade shop." ”

Bai Yutang was puzzled.

At this time, Zhao Pu poked the two of them.

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao, who were discussing, looked back at him together, to be honest, they only remembered now that Zhao Pu was there.

Zhao Pu looked at the two of them with admiration, he was a little embarrassed to stay together, and felt that he was in the way of their "chat".

"That jade bracelet was brought by my grandfather since he was a child, and it should be a relic left by his mother." Bai Yutang frowned slightly, thinking of Yin Hou's life experience, his mother was not an ordinary woman......

"In other words, this jade pendant is a royal thing?" Zhao Pu asked.

Zhan Zhao nodded, "This jade pendant is a unique bracelet, my grandfather has not found a match with this jade bracelet for more than a hundred years, the same jade material itself is very rare, even if you find a matching original stone, it is extremely difficult to build!" Jiuniang said that my grandfather originally wanted to make a dowry for my mother, but I couldn't find a lot of craftsmen, and the jade masters in the magic palace said that this kind of craft belongs to the ancient method, and if there is a successor to the craftsmen of the royal family in the previous dynasty, it may be able to create it, and other craftsmen will have to break it if they touch it, so if the precious rough stone is polished and broken, it will be wasted. ”

Bai Yutang and Zhao Pu were aware of it—it seemed that Yin Hou also realized that this shop was not simple.

……

Just when Yin was waiting to pick the white jade and Tianzun was picking the red jade, Xi Gulu, who was beside the little fourth son, suddenly stood up and ran out.

The woman hurriedly shouted, "This son ......"

Xigulu scratched his head, and the little fourth son grabbed him and asked him where he was going.

Xi Gulu looked anxious, "Where is the thatched house?" ”

The young woman walked to the door, pointed to the courtyard on the side, and said, "The first room at the gate of the courtyard is." ”

And Higurus ran.

The fourth child followed, "I'll go too." ”

One big and one small ran to the courtyard gate, and the young woman was quite nervous, "Don't run around, be careful of getting lost." ”

Yin Hou looked at the door, and when he turned around, he saw Tianzun suddenly put a red jade ring in front of his eyes.

Yin Hou raised his eyebrows and looked at Tianzun - are you planning to give me a ring? Don't you be funny when you're over 100 years old?

Tianzun Wangtian rolled his eyes and glared at him, while facing the ring Nunu.

Yin Hou took it over with a suspicious look on his face, frowned, and looked up at Tianzun.

The two exchanged glances, and Tianzun picked up the ring and said to the young woman, "Girl, I'll buy this." ”

The young woman came back to her senses, "Oh......" while agreeing, she walked over, and felt that Tianzun was also very strange, and she called her aunt a girl at a young age......

Seeing that Tianzun wanted to buy a ring, the woman took out the account and quoted it to Tianzun, but here she was busy, but she paid attention to the little fourth son and Xigulu who went to the other courtyard, as if she was afraid that they would run away.

Yin Hou stood up and said, "They are both children, I'll go and call people back, don't run around for a while, you're busy." ”

The woman nodded quickly and thanked Yin Hou.

Yin Hou got up and left, passed through the courtyard gate, and met the little fourth son who came out of the thatched house.

Yin Hou stretched out his hand, took him by the hand, and led him to the courtyard.

Xiao Sizi looked at the courtyard gate behind him, and felt that the direction was reversed, so he raised his face and asked Yin Hou, "Yin Yin, where are we going?" ”

Yin Hou smiled slightly, "I don't know, isn't this lost." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the little fourth son, walked around the lush trees, and walked to the depths of the small courtyard......
