Chapter 92
After sending the invitation, Wei Qianyou didn't let the disciple follow. First, he was so angry with him, and secondly, he only thought about the appearance of the second uncle, and forgot to explain to Yun Shao, and asked this disciple to go back to pass the message.
After giving the order, Wei Qian swam out of the city gate and walked slowly towards the post station indicated by Hong Yin. Listening to what Hong Yin said, the second uncle was about the same age as the master, but Wei Qianyou inquired around, and squatted at the door of the post station for a while, and he didn't see an old Taoist come in and out.
"This is really a strange thing, could it be that this second uncle likes to laugh at his apprentice, and deliberately hid when he passed the news back?"
It's also more than a hundred years of Taoism, even if it hasn't been cultivated to any depth, at least it's pretending to be a master outside the world, right? If you don't step on the crane, just go back by yourself, the disciple comes to pick him up, and what is the problem with the disciple?
When he was about to lose his patience, Wei Qianyou heard a sentence from his side: "It's really like your master's temper, I've only been waiting for a long time, and I'm impatient." Your master should have told you that the most important thing in our Xuanqing School's kung fu is to cultivate the mind. ”
Wei Qianyou tilted his head and glanced at it, and then lost interest. Standing beside him was a man in his thirties, looking younger than Xu Hongwen. Although the Master looked like a young man, his beard was already gray, but this man's hair was jet black.
Chen Mu poked Wei Qianyou with his elbow: "You kid is too rude, Uncle Shi talked to you, but he didn't even pay attention to it." ”
Wei Qianyou grinned, leaned close to Chen Mu's ear and said, "How much silver my uncle gave you to act, you tell the truth, I will give you double." ”
Wei Qianyou had already concluded that Chai Xiuren had fully inherited the character of the second uncle. In comparison, Chai Xiuren is better, at least the prank will only be picked on the head of the disciple.
Chen Mu scolded secretly, why didn't this kid open his mind, who dared to pretend to be him in Yuhang? Even if the face is made like it, does he have the temperament of his?
Then I thought that Senior Brother Xu didn't even show his portrait to this apprentice, so Wei Qianyou couldn't recognize him at the moment. Why don't you take this opportunity......
Chen Mu arched his hand and said: "The Taoist is really discerning, and I can see at a glance that I am not really Zhongyuan Zhenren, and I admire and admire it." However, the old Taoist can be very generous, and the opening is a thousand taels of silver, if the Taoist chief gives double ......"
Wei Qianyou coughed dryly when he heard this, and put away his money bag. In addition to collecting accounts for Yun Shao, when he has seen a thousand taels of silver, he can't get this person's truth if he sells him. But since this person said so, it was considered an admission.
Wei Qianyou said embarrassedly: "Wei is really shy, but if Brother Tai is willing to lead me to find Zhong Yuan Zhenren, he will definitely not ask Brother Taibai to make a hard trip." Afterwards, my brother Tai followed me back to the door, two thousand taels of silver, and my senior brother will give you a lot of money. ”
When Chen Mu heard Wei Qianyou's plan, he naturally refused to nod. If you go back like this, won't your identity be exposed? It's hard to catch a disciple who doesn't recognize him, and he can't pit as many as he wants.
"The road is long and slow, the price is negotiable, how much more do you have in that money bag?" Chen Mu pulled Wei Qian to the side, and the two sat on the ground.
"Well, that's all. I don't value these things outside of my body, but I'm very strapped for them. Wei Qianyou threw the money bag over.
Chen Mu weighed it, and roughly estimated that it was only less than a hundred taels.
"That's it? Hong Yin's little ...... Daoist Hong Yin has deducted your monthly rule? Chen Mu looked at the money bag in his hand, his eyes full of disbelief.
Wei Qianyou spread his hands and said helplessly: "That's not true, it's just that I just returned to the door, and I don't plan to stay for a long time." Even if Senior Brother Hong is willing to give it, I am embarrassed to accept it. Wei Qian lobbied seriously, but he didn't know that someone had already taken it all for him.
Chen Mu pinched his fingers and counted the days, and before he had time, he said, "When your uncle ordered me before, he didn't look like he was in a hurry to go back. Why don't you go back by yourself, and then come back to me when you get the monthly order. ”
Wei Qianyou smiled bitterly: "Brother, I was ordered by my senior brother, and I can't pay the difference when I go back alone." As long as you are willing to help, the silver will definitely not be bad for you, why do you have to make fun of me. ”
Chen Mu was about to shake his head out of the afterimage: "That's not possible, I've always been principled, as long as you don't see the silver, don't want to ask me to help you do things." ”
Wei Qianyou was dumbfounded, it was really an eternal principle.
repaid the half-sky price, after all, Wei Qianyou compromised: "It's not that there is no sincerity in the bottom, but there is already a breeze in the sleeves, how about I write a borrowed house to my brother?" ”
Wei Qian lobbied, but he felt that this method was inappropriate. The Taoist leader of the Xuanqing faction will give money to other people, and if he says it, he is afraid that no one will believe it, even if he does not admit it in the future, Chen Mu has nowhere to reason.
Without waiting for Chen Mu to answer, Wei Qianyou was ready to veto himself, but Chen Mu agreed, turned his head and went to the post station to write and write.
Wei Qianyou made a note, and saw that Chen Mu had added a lot of additional terms below, and suddenly had a feeling of being deceived. But the notes have been put into his arms, and he can still regret it.
"Brother, you also accepted the IOU, now you can say it, where is my uncle watching the play now?" Wei Qianyou stared at Chen Mu, if this person dared to tease him, he would take him to see how he was recovering.
Chen Mu nodded, holding the note in his arms with his hand, with a look of intoxication: "You and I will go back to the door first, and then you will meet the person you want to see." ”
Wei Qianyou was suspicious, and saw that Chen Mu had already taken the lead with a light car, so he had to follow. But he didn't forget to threaten: "I am a member of the Xuanqing faction, unlike the monks next to me who are taboo to kill, and we are merciless to the villains." ”
Chen Mu said lightly: "I know, don't you just want to say that if you dare to lie to me, Dao Ye will beat you to death." ”
Wei Qianyou was silent, as long as this person knew, he was not a good person, and he had to sympathize with the liar if he was deceived.
Back in the door, Wei Qianyou directly found Hong Yin, wanting to confirm what this person said, but was preempted by Hong Yin: "I thought that if you went to pick up the master, it would inevitably be a little twists and turns, and I didn't want his old man to embarrass you." ”
Hearing this, Wei Qianyou glared at Chen Mu fiercely, stepped forward and said, "Senior Brother Hong, this person said that Uncle Shi has returned to the door, could it be that you haven't seen Uncle Shi yet?" ”
Hong Yin looked at Wei Qianyou's fingers, and hurriedly pulled Wei Qianyou to kneel and kowtow.
Wei Qianyou was still puzzled, but hearing Hong Yin's sentence of "meet the master" startled him. I didn't want this second uncle to look so young, and he was even more striking than the master, so he hurriedly kowtowed to Hong Yin and called Uncle Shi.
Chen Mu motioned for the two of them to get up, and teased Wei Qian: "Uncle Shi can be regarded as deceiving you once, but you are going to fulfill your promise?" ”
"How dare the disciple be disrespectful to Uncle Shi, just now the disciple failed to recognize Uncle Shi, so he said those words, and asked Uncle Shi to forgive his sins." Wei Qianyou's eyelids jumped, and he didn't dare to say it. They are all small and have eyes that don't know Mount Tai, you are the true Taoist.
Hong Yin was horrified when he heard the conversation between the two, and asked, "Why are you disrespectful to Master?" This is a big taboo in the door, let alone a master, even a senior brother can't spare you. ”
After that, Hong Yin said to Chen Mu again: "Master, not long after Qian You returned to the door, he failed to recognize the master, and it was also the disciple's negligence, and the disciple was willing to admit the guilt." ”
Chen Mu raised his eyebrows and glanced at the two, he really didn't expect Hong Yin to say this, just because Hong Yin has always had clear rewards and punishments. It was the first time he had heard in decades that Hong Yin would help others take the blame.
"What do you blame or not, the so-called ignorant are not to blame, as long as you don't forget that note." Chen Mu didn't care.
Chen Mu said it lightly, but Hong Yin couldn't believe it, and kept his head down and waited for it to fall. It wasn't until he heard Chen Mu's footsteps far away that Hong Yin dared to believe that what the master said was not angry.
Listening to Wei Qian's lobbying of what happened, Hong Yin sighed lightly: "Master is still the same, nothing has changed, do you know why Master handed over the accounts in the door to a few of your senior brothers to take care of?" ”
Hearing Hong Yin's unprovoked question, Wei Qianyou didn't know how to answer, just shook his head and waited for Hong Yin's next words.
Hong Yin smiled embarrassedly: "It's because Master is an old man, he only sees the income, and he only spends one or two pieces of silver, and he has to be sad for once." This is also the reason why our Xuanqing faction does not taboo killing, but it is taboo to eat meat. ”
Wei Qianyou smacked his tongue, before Chen Mu, he also said that Yun Shao had reached the peak here, and even the salary of the "little second sister" in the restaurant had to be deducted by all means, but he didn't expect to see Master Zu today.
Hong Yin patted Wei Qianyou on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "How much silver is written on the IOU, it is better to send it to the master as soon as possible, but it will be turned over when the day comes." ”
Wei Qianyou still has a lot of puzzles, but the experience of people who have come over is always correct, and Hong Yin has been cheated at a glance. When he reached the realm of the second uncle, he would not have the slightest sense of guilt for pit his apprentice's silver.
"No, I clearly remember, it was placed here, why is it gone?" Wei Qianyou looked at the empty box and muttered to himself.
"Qianyou, you're back, what are you looking for?" Yun Shao walked out of the room and saw Wei Qianyou hiding the box behind him, and the surprise on his face gradually turned into playfulness.
"No, it's nothing. It's just that the case is a little messy, so I'll clean it up and make you noisy, right? Wei Qianyou diverted the topic. Hiding private money, how can you talk about it as soon as you ask.
Yun Shao slowly approached, and while Wei Qian was unprepared, he snatched the box in his hand. After looking at it for a moment, he said disappointedly: "It turned out to be just an empty box, and I said that you prepared some surprise for me." I was left alone for most of the day, but I didn't even make any compensation. ”
Wei Qian smiled sneeringly: "I will definitely make up for it next time, but before that, there are still some things to discuss with you." ”
Yun Shao smiled and said: "Between you and me, if you have something to say, what else to discuss or not." ”
Wei Qianyou was even more embarrassed when he heard Yun Shao so refreshingly: "I've been a little tight on money recently, and I want to get some silver, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”
