Chapter 2 The fairy is immaculate
The woman in red and a slightly larger woman in white picked a table and sat down, and the other four stood behind the woman in red and waited.
"There are so many new faces this year. The five Taoist priests began to talk.
Liu Cheng, Liu Mao, and Jiang Xinzhong only lowered their heads to eat, and did not speak at this time, but their ears were carefully eavesdropping on the conversations of the people around them.
Liu Cheng learned from the conversation of everyone that this Zhaojia Village holds an immortal cultivation conference every three years, also known as the immortal conference, which is only known to a few immortal cultivators who have established contact with the people of Zhaojia Village, but there are also some newcomers who come here at this time.
The six new women didn't say much, and they didn't hear anything.
When everyone had eaten dinner and arranged their accommodations, the three of them and the six female guests had no room and needed to stay in the village for a while.
This made these three people very unconvinced, and when they first came, they didn't have a room to live in. "Say it again, there are so many rooms in the backyard, why can't we live in the first place. Liu Cheng didn't wait for Liu Mao to open his mouth this time, he couldn't hold it back, he was dignified and guarded, and the yamen of the state capitals were still in awe, and he was repeatedly teased in this small mountain village.
"Don't worry, these five Taoist chiefs and Master Zhao's family are pre-booked rooms, and the five Taoist chiefs occupy four, and there are a total of five rooms in the backyard, but don't worry, the house in the village that I found for you is also a big family, and it is guaranteed to be better than our small shop, but the price is more expensive, you see......"
"Money is not a problem, just a comfortable room. ”
"Five taels of silver per person, a total of fifteen taels, and these six girls have a total of thirty taels. Pay the money first, and let Headless take you there later. ”
"What?" Liu Cheng and the others gritted their teeth, "Five taels of silver per person, boss, you rob money, these dozens of silver are enough to buy a private house in the capital, are you selling or renting a house? Besides, why should it be counted by head, shouldn't it be counted by room?"
"There are also houses for one person and one or two, and you must know that they only open once in 3 years, of course, they are more expensive. If you don't have that much silver, I have a firewood house here, and if you don't dislike it, you can live in it for a tael of silver. ”
"These three officials, you are new to the city, you don't understand the rules here, it is indeed so expensive to stay here, of course, it is not so expensive on weekdays. This is indeed the price during the Immortal Conference. ”
Liu Cheng saw that the six women were silent, staring at them all the time, feeling that he was very faceless and had to pretend to be generous, "Okay, five taels is five taels, and we can't afford it." ”
"It's fifteen taels. ”
"I'll give you fifteen taels, and I'll see how good the good house is in this big family. ”
.......
In the middle of the night, the birds did not sing, and the bright moon hung high around the village.
The rice grows and the four wild insects and frogs sing, and the dim light is low and the headless is reflected.
Haha, this group of people looked at the headless people who were walking forward with the lights, and they all felt that there was an inexplicable coolness in this sultry summer night.
When he came to the door of a high-walled compound, he didn't wait for Headless to knock on the door, and the big dog in the door barked.
Headless knocked on the door, and after a while, the door opened, and a woman over half a hundred years old poked her head out, "Oh, you are dead and headless, why did you come in the middle of the night, and you scared the old lady to death with pure heart! ”
Headless and unable to speak, his left hand scratched his back and shrugged his shoulders.
"Hey, ladies and gentlemen, please, there are just a few suites in this courtyard, you can pick them, and if you come late, the good houses will be gone." ”
The girls chose the three largest rooms, and Liu Cheng lived in one room for the three of them, and the money was spent, and they couldn't live in vain.
The men and women did not live in the same courtyard, and they found that many of the houses were already occupied.
The room was indeed exquisite, and behind the light gauze barrier was a large wooden barrel, which seemed to be used for bathing. The red pine carved wooden bed wears a light gauze mosquito net, and the exquisite table of eight immortals is actually carved out of a whole wood, on which is the paving surface of green ink stone and jade, and even the chair is backed by jade, and there is a floor-to-ceiling crane lamp on both sides of the bed, and the crane has a red gauze lamp in its mouth, and the crane is lit with special incense on its back.
This is in the capital, I'm afraid that only the official eunuchs can afford to use these, there is such a family in this mountain and countryside, is it possible that it is an official who retreats to the countryside?
"Do you want to take a bath, do you have clothes to change, we have good clothes for sale in the front yard gatehouse, you can take a look." A house slave asked outside the door.
"Do you need any money for bathing and washing clothes?" asked Liu Cheng.
The guest officer laughed, three meals are included in the accommodation, how dare you ask for money for bathing, but you want to buy clothes or other supplies. ”
Taking a hot bath in the summer is really cool, so I told Liu Mao and Jiang Xinzhong that they still don't wash in vain, and the clothes they change are also handed over to the next person to wash. After a while, the two house slaves brought hot water.
took a bath, and it was a lot cooler, but Liu Cheng was lying on the bed and couldn't sleep, thinking about what to do tomorrow.
When the day was about to dawn, I gradually fell asleep, and suddenly I heard someone knocking on the door. "Who? so early. ”
"It's time to get up and have breakfast. A woman's soft voice was very sweet.
Liu Cheng opened the door with sleepy eyes, and saw that the person who came was dressed in white, it was one of the six female guests yesterday, and it may have been foggy in the morning, and the scenery in the courtyard could not be seen clearly, so he could only see the woman in front of him.
"Is there anything wrong with the girl?"
The woman didn't speak, she entered the house and closed the door with her backhand, and fell into Liu Cheng's arms, "Childe save me, my name is Flawless, I see that Childe is extraordinary, there must be fairy roots, and I intend to take refuge, I don't know if Childe is willing to take me." So saying, the woman who claimed to be immaculate was to untie her clothes.
Although Liu Cheng is over thirty years old but has not married yet, he also thinks that he is a righteous gentleman, how can he stand this. "Where does the girl say, you can't do it, you can't do it, what is the difficulty of you, why do you have to do it. ”
The woman knelt down, her shoulders were bare, she couldn't cry, and cried to Liu Cheng: "I am the fairy of Biyun Cave, studying under the Holy Mother of Red Witch, I don't want to be captured by the immortals of the Moon God Palace, so I hold it hostage here, and I hope that the son will rescue ........"
Before she could finish speaking, a bright moon opened behind her, and a woman's big hand grabbed her.
When Liu Cheng shouted, he couldn't help but wake up, it turned out that he had a dream, but why did he lie on the ground instead of on the bed?
Looking out the window at the moonlit night,
A few degrees of wind and a few degrees of cold.
It is said that the midsummer night is endless,
It's rare to have a leisurely time.
Liu Cheng sighed that he had passed the age of establishment, and he was not able to start a family and start a business, and he was ashamed of his ancestors!
Seeing that the girl was handsome, he subconsciously dreamed in his dream, and he has always advertised that he is a righteous gentleman, but deep down in his heart, he has the same seven emotions and six desires as mortals, ridiculous, ridiculous, he can make such an obscene poem, I am afraid that after returning to Beijing, I should find a matchmaker to ask.

(The Eight Immortals Table was indeed a symbol of the rich in the past, and the Eight Immortals Table carved out of a whole wood means that the table top to the table legs are carved from a piece of wood, which shows its rarity, but the wood in the Ming and Qing dynasties was not so expensive, and the rich could still afford it, but now it is different, it is a rare thing, to the market price is less than 100,000 yuan, and it is a rising tide, even if the rich people want to buy it now, someone has to be willing to sell it!)
