Chapter 5: Boss Money
The next day, Su Ming woke up very early, mainly after listening to the conversation between the two people at night, and couldn't sleep.
Just halfway through breakfast, an obese man came from the backyard, in his thirties, fat head and big ears, wearing silk and satin, dressed as a local tyrant; During this period, the fat man's face was very bad, Su Ming was a little surprised, this early in the morning with a dead face, unlucky!
After a while, the fat man returned to the backyard, and then he kept hearing the sound of bowls, teapots, plates and other porcelain being smashed, which was very crisp.
Su Ming was a little puzzled, walked up to Aunt Liu, who was wiping the table, and asked what was going on.
"Oh, you asked us Boss Qian, I don't know, I said that a few things were missing, and I came in the morning to ask if I saw any suspicious people, and I said no, no one has checked out yet. ”
Su Ming sat down, ate half a bowl of noodles left, and said in his heart: It is more likely that that thing was Boss Xu last night, and eighty percent of it was a meteorite fragment, should I tell the other party. After a while, Su Ming had a plan and decided to take a gamble, because he wanted to know how to absorb energy from the meteorite.
Su Ming found Aunt Liu again and said that she wanted to meet the innkeeper Qian, Aunt Liu was a little puzzled, but she still recommended him.
Boss Qian was still in the room, the porcelain on the ground was shattered, and he was drinking sullen wine alone. There was a knock on the door, and Aunt Liu said respectfully: "Boss, someone wants to see you." ”
"Who, no. Boss Qian replied directly, and there was still some anger in his words.
Aunt Liu was a little hesitant.
"Hehe," Su Ming smiled knowingly, and continued: "Boss Qian, if you lose something, you lose it, why are you so angry." ”
"Bang!"
The door opened, and Boss Qian stared at Su Ming, and said in surprise: "What do you mean, did you steal the thing?"
"If I steal it, will I come to the door automatically?" Su Ming retorted, with a smile on his face from beginning to end, looking quite calm and confident. In fact, Su Ming didn't have a bottom in his heart.
"What's the matter with me?"
"Want to know something. ”
"Come in. Although Boss Qian was angry, he was polite, retained his sanity, and let Su Ming enter the room, but Aunt Liu didn't go in, closed the door and left.
"Say it!" Boss Qian saw that the door was closed, and asked the subject directly.
"I want to know what the function of the stone crushed piece is?" Su Ming was also very direct, so he bet this time.
"What gravel?" Boss Qian was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise, with a blank expression.
"Huh. As soon as Su Ming saw it, he knew that he had made the right bet, and he felt a little confident in his heart, and said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "This is not interesting." ”
When Boss Qian saw it, he laughed twice and said, "Sit down, look at you like a person who is so thin and doesn't look like a rooster and a dog thief." ”
Su Ming was not polite, walked to the nearest chair and sat down, and continued: "Last night, I heard the voices of two people talking. ”
"Oh, have you seen each other's faces?"
"No, the other party seems to have very high martial arts skills, and can easily enter the window on the second floor. ”
"Which room?"
Su Ming didn't answer the other party, picked up the only exquisite ceramic teacup left on the coffee table, and looked at it carefully, like a lover of ceramics seeing a rare treasure.
When Boss Qian saw it, his brows furrowed slightly, his face was a little anxious, and then without the slightest hesitation, he said, "I lost two fragments." ”
Hearing this, Su Ming gently put down the ceramic teacup in his hand, and said unhurriedly: "Oh, didn't the fragment of the government say that there is a reward for handing it over! ”
Boss Qian glanced at Su Ming, not knowing if he really didn't know or not, but he still said: "Fragments can improve people's martial arts skills." ”
"No, it's just a broken stone, what's the use?"
Boss Qian glanced at Su Ming, and the other party replied so directly, convinced that Su Ming really didn't know, and then slowly exhaled and said: "Absorbing the energy inside can stimulate people's potential, such as infinite strength, walking like flying." ”
"Then how can I absorb it!"
Boss Qian was a little surprised, and secretly said that this is your purpose, and then stopped talking, looking at the ink paintings on the wall.
Su Ming gritted his teeth, old fox, but he didn't have an advantage, if the other party didn't say that he couldn't do anything, he was at a stalemate for a while, Su Ming said helplessly: "One senior brother, the other seems to be a junior brother, and he also said don't tell the master, if I'm not mistaken, I should live next door to me." ”
"Which room do you live in?" Boss Qian turned around sharply, staring straight at Su Ming, his expression was a little joyful, Su Ming was startled, and almost subconsciously replied: "Turn right on the second floor of the stairs and turn the second room." ”
Boss Qian took a few big strides and flew out of the room, and then Su Ming heard the sound of thumping up the stairs.
Su Ming was taken aback: Don't underestimate any fat person, sometimes he is more flexible than you!
Su Ming then followed, and before he reached the door of the room, he heard Boss Qian's angry howl: "The surname is Li, I'm not done with you." ”
There was no one in the room, the quilt hadn't moved, there were a few footprints on the table by the window, the window was open, and it was clear that the people in the room had gone through the window.
Su Ming walked over, looked at the footprints, and then looked at Boss Qian's figure, and said a little puzzled: "Boss Qian, your two fragments are for your own use, why is there no effect?"
Everything is clear like this, and Boss Qian did not hide it, and said slowly: "The two fragments are ready to give favors, mainly because my son has been frail and sick since he was a child, and now the troubled times are coming, in order to give him an ability to protect himself, I asked someone to buy it at a high price, and I am going to give it to Daoist Zhang in the Taoist temple outside the city." ”
"Oh, I see. Su Ming was silent, realizing the good intentions of a father.
"Daoist Zhang, which Daoist Zhang, is it very powerful?" Su Ming heard that the Taoist priest's surname was Zhang, and he remembered that Xu Yingying's martial arts master was also surnamed Zhang, and said casually.
"Well, it's very powerful, it's said to be called Zhang Lingfeng. The strength is ranked first in Nanfeng County. Boss Qian was a little helpless, lowered his head slightly, and said with some frustration.
"What, Zhang Lingfeng!" Su Ming didn't expect that it was really Xu Yingying's seventy-year-old master, and he told him about Master Zhang at the moment.
"Where he's out of town, I'll go and see. ”
"I'll stay with you. Boss Qian had a slight smile on his face after a long time.
"Okay, but I'm not sure he'll see me. ”
"It doesn't matter. ”
There is a mountain outside the city, it is in the east-west direction, stretches more than 1,000 meters, the pines and cypresses on the mountain are verdant, lush, there is a Taoist temple at the foot of the south face, the Taoist temple occupies an area of not much, there are only three houses. There is a main hall in the middle, plus a secondary hall on each side, and a wall, and that's it.
Su Ming stood in the main hall and walked around, waiting for the reply of the Taoist disciple. After looking at the main hall and comparing it with the Taoist temple on the outskirts of Luoxia Town, Su Ming was a little puzzled, the Taoist temple here is largely similar to the Taoist temple on the earth, but the main hall is not the Sanqing Palace, and the name of the main hall is not the same, but there is an old man enshrined in it, the old man has a childish face, white eyebrows, eyebrows and white hair, eyebrows are two inches long, and his beard is also three inches long; his forehead is raised, his face is full of red light, his eyes are black and his lips are red; he holds a whisk in his hand, supports the bottom with his left hand, and grasps the upper part with his right hand, standing in the middle of the main hall with a smile, wearing a yellow dress hanging down to his knees.
"Squeak. ”
The door of the small room next to the main hall opened, and the young disciple paced over, clasped his fists and saluted, "Donor, please inside." ”
Su Ming found that the other party only invited him, so he asked Boss Qian and his ten-year-old son to wait for a while, and then went in to take a look.
