Shen Qianyuan arrived as promised, dressed in a long robe, holding two boxes of pastries in his right hand, as if visiting relatives and friends in the old neighborhood, came to the door of Hu's house, full of smiles, first said hard work, and then stretched out his left arm, as if shaking hands, and handed a small piece of broken silver to the two guards.

The guard smiled and nodded, pushed the door and let in, neither blocking nor informing, treating the people in the house as prisoners with visitors.

Hu Guiyang stood at the door of the main house, arched his hand and smiled: "Brother Shen, don't come unharmed." ”

"I haven't seen you for a few months, but Captain Hu's demeanor is still the same."

"Haha, the style is still the same, that is, there is no style. Brother Shen was polite and brought gifts. ”

"A little courtesy, please smile."

Hu Guiyang received it in his hand and said with a smile: "Forgive me for being inconsiderate, you gave a thin gift, but I didn't even prepare a glass of thin wine, so let's eat these pastries." ”

Shen Qianyuan laughed, "Captain Hu is still so straightforward. ”

Hu Guiyang let the guests into the house, really opened the pastry box, divided and ate, and nodded again and again, "Well, only in the capital can there be such a delicious jujube cake." ”

Shen Qianyuan took a bite and put it down, smiling at Hu Guiyang swallowing a few pieces in a row.

Hu Guiyang poured two cups of herbal tea, and after drinking it, he said: "Okay, see and see, eat and eat, Brother Shen walks slowly, I have a life in my body, and I can't send it away." ”

"Captain Hu, don't be busy chasing away customers, you haven't talked about business yet."

"I thought Brother Shen was just coming to take a look."

Shen Qianyuan sighed twice and put away his smile, "Ming people don't say secret words, that evening, Captain Hu came out of the woodland and got a lot of treasures, right?" ”

Hu Guiyang pointed to the pastry scraps on the table, "Compared to your question, this gift is really thin." ”

"Generous gifts are in the back. Captain Hu is trapped in the shallows, so he doesn't want to return to the rivers and seas? ”

"The words of the dragon trapped in the shallows don't use me, I am at most a shrimp, and I have been living on the shallows, even if the rivers and seas are magnificent, I will be sent to death if I swim over."

"At this time, it is not as good as before, Captain Hu stayed in the shallows to send him to death, and the East and West Factories invited Hu to go to the school yesterday, not to catch the wind and wash the dust, right?"

"To tell you the truth, I have eaten all the golden pills, and now I can only convince my boss and ask them to allow me to continue to be a shrimp."

Shen Qianyuan laughed and said, "Captain Hu really hasn't changed at all. It's okay, I'm just here to spread a word, if Captain Hu is interested in Jianghai one day, please come to me, I don't have any other skills, maybe I can show Captain Hu a ready-made way. ”

"Of course, even if Brother Shen doesn't come, maybe one day I will be cheeky and ask you for help."

Shen Qianyuan laughed, got up to say goodbye, and stopped when he came to the door, "When you were in Yunyang City, you were always awake, right?" ”

"Anyway, I remember everything about that time."

"That's fine."

Hu Guiyang grabbed Shen Qianyuan's arm, "Brother Shen, you threw down such a sentence, don't you want me to sleep at night?" ”

"Haha, blame me for talking a lot. Well, in fact, it's nothing, after the great change in Yunyang Mansion, everyone has lost their skills. ”

"Well, outside the woods, aren't you recovering your strength? It worked? ”

"Hey, how can it be that easy? Mortals are weak, everything in the dark is destined by God, the same practice around the Dan acupoint, some people are killed, some people escape, the situation of the survivors is also different, or there is no change, or the body is strong and loses the strength, or the weak and old like the old man, and a very small number of people, even recover their skills, become a rare master. ”

"Someone regained their strength?" Hu Guiyang was very surprised.

"Yes."

"Restore the power you used to absorb the pill?"

"Of course."

"Is there anyone I know?"

"There are very few such people, and no one has publicly claimed to have recovered their skills."

"In that case......

"How do I know?" Shen Qianyuan smiled, "Since Captain Hu has no intention of entering Jianghai, there is no need to know about the situation in Jianghai, and when you are moved, it is not too late to ask." ”

Shen Qianyuan said goodbye, Hu Guiyang called out Jiang Erpi and Zheng Sanhun, the two of them came out of the utility room and complained: "I thought I could catch up with a banquet, Shen Qianyuan is so famous, he only gave such a little thing, the name is not true." ”

"Is Shen Qianyuan very famous?" Hu Guiyang asked curiously, in his memory, although Shen Qianyuan was from Beijing, he went to Nanjing to participate in the extraordinary way in his early years, and when he returned to Beijing, he was very popular, but he was not famous.

"Of course, he contacted several dart bureaus in the capital to do business together, took care of each other, and was particularly safe when walking the rivers and lakes, and everyone called him the head of the capital."

"Some people even call him the king of darts." Zheng Sanhun was not convinced, "He, a foreign bachelor, dares to be called the king of darts and bully no one in the capital?" ”

Hu Guiyang looked at Zheng Sanhun twice, "That's someone else's ability, if you don't like it, you should come forward and uphold justice." ”

"Hehe, Brother Gui Yang still loves more truth as before, I can preside over the justice of the company's alley at most, and I can't do it any more."

Even in the Hutong of the company, Zheng Sanhun is just a gangster who is not in the stream, Hu Guiyang smiled: "You can preside over the justice of four stomachs at most, go buy wine and meat, and let's have a small banquet." ”

Zheng Sanhun was stunned for a moment, there were only three people after checking around, turned his head and saw the big cake lying in the sun, and came to his senses, "It's a trivial matter, leave it to me to make sure you rest assured." ”

The two brothers rushed to do this kind of thing, and along the way they quarreled over whose hand the money should be put in.

The wine and meat were bought back quickly, Hu Guiyang invited the two guards at the gate to come in and eat and drink together, the two didn't dare, Jiang and Zheng sent out a few kinds of wine and food, and the guards ate quite happily and chatted politely.

Zheng Sanhun just wanted to go back to the house to drink hot wine, but Jiang Erpi had an extra heart, asked a few more words at the gate, and when he entered the hall, he saw two people and a dog eating happily.

"Second brother, come on, this elbow is very fragrant, don't come again...... Oops, there's only bones left, you don't have a mouthful, flatbread, come. ”

Jiang Erpi laughed a few times, sat down to pour wine and drink, and after a while, Hu Guiyang and Zheng Sanhun both stopped and looked at each other.

Jiang Erpi was stunned: "What's wrong?" ”

"Sips, don't grab meat—you've suddenly become so urbane, I don't recognize you anymore." Hu Guiyang said.

Zheng Sanhun said with a frightened face: "Second brother, don't scare me. ”

Jiang Erpi put down his wine glass, "Brother Guiyang, I heard that you are going to compete with the master of the West Factory the evening after tomorrow?" ”

"That's right."

"You...... Can you beat it? ”

"I can't beat it." Hu Guiyang spoke while picking his favorite dishes and eating a few more bites.

"Then why do you ......?"

"It's none of your business." Hu Guiyang poured a mouthful and sprinkled it.

"That's right, we can't help." Jiang Erpi began to eat and drink.

Zheng Sanhun thought of something and said, "Brother Guiyang, if you have three long and two short in the evening the day after tomorrow, what will happen to these gold and silver treasures at home?" ”

"Isn't there still two days left? Spend all the money. ”

"At least two hundred taels, right?" Zheng Sanhun has seen the package, and he can estimate it at a glance.

"Are you afraid I won't be able to spend it all?"

Zheng Sanhun glanced at the wine and food on the table, and said frustratedly: "I knew this was the case, why should I save money?" This is pig food. ”

Jiang Erpi slapped the back of Zheng Sanhun's head, "Can you speak human words?" It seems that you are looking forward to something happening to Brother Gui Yang, who said that if you can't fight, you will definitely die? Brother Gui Yang dared to come back, he must have a number in his heart. ”

Zheng Sanhun understood, and apologized vigorously, but Hu Guiyang didn't care, "It's rare for me to be generous once, everyone has money to spend, and everyone drinks wine." ”

Full of wine and food, Zheng Sanhun was worried again, he didn't care about the competition the day after tomorrow, he only thought about the bag of silver that hadn't been spent much.

"Brother Gui Yang, this wine has no taste."

"Hey, the guy who stole dogs on the street yesterday dislikes my wine for not tasting today?"

"That's not what I mean, I mean that since Brother Gui Yang wants to spend money, and we brothers run errands for you, it's better to invite a girl to help out."

"Phew, don't use the trick to fool the out-of-town guests to deal with me."

Zheng Sanhun didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his suggestion, "Spending money to have fun, how can it be called 'dealing with'?" I'm purely thinking about you, I won't earn you a penny, I'll definitely find the best girl......"

Jiang Erpi hit again, "Have you drunk too much?" Brother Gui Yang has known our brothers for so many years, and he has never looked for a girl from the Spring Courtyard, so now he will have this thought? ”

Zheng Sanhun was annoyed and said angrily: "It's a man who has this mind, and the big cake was chasing everywhere on the street a while ago." ”

Flatbread looked up and screamed, and seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he lowered his head and continued to gnaw on the bones with relish.

Jiang and Zheng quarreled, and Hu Guiyang stretched, "I'm going to sleep, you clean up the house." Remember, my money is only for food and drink. ”

Hu Guiyang washed his face and feet, went back to bed comfortably, slept in the morning, refreshed, and shouted early in the morning: "Jiang Erpi, Zheng Sanhun, prepare lunch, you can't be the same as yesterday." ”

The two of them seemed to hear the spell, and immediately jumped out and said with a smile: "This is simple, even if you eat it for a year, it is not the same." ”

The two of them took the silver and walked out happily, not at all like they had fought.

Hu Guiyang sat in the living room, drank some tea, touched the dog's head, and muttered: "This is the life of a person, what Jindan or strange people have nothing to do with me." ”

Jiang and Zheng didn't know where to buy food and drink, they went out in the morning, and they didn't come back at noon, Hu Guiyang was a little hungry, and went to the door several times to watch, but the guards were very polite, but he was not allowed to take half a step out of the door.

Not long after noon, Jiang Erpi ran in panting, empty-handed, with a smile on his face, "Brother Guiyang, congratulations, but this is not the credit of our brothers, they took the initiative to come to the door." ”

"What the hell is messy, wine? What about meat? ”

"It's coming soon, didn't you say it would be the same as yesterday? There's something new. Jiang Erpi leaned over and wanted to speak in his ear, but was pushed away by Hu Guiyang.

"Sister Duan'er of the Ren family, I want to come to pick you up and wash the dust in person."

"Sister Duer?"

"Ren Liu'er, you forgot, you still had a big fuss in others."

Hu Guiyang remembered, then he was confused again, and soon woke up again, "Hey, Dongchang thinks I still have contact with the Wen family, Xichang thinks I have Jindan, Shen Qianyuan thinks I can find my skills, and now some people think that I really dug up gold and silver treasures." Interesting, if I fucking have these things, why do I come back? ”
