Volume 4 Chapter 15 Tongliu Lane

The middle-aged man seemed to see Lu Ming's dissatisfaction, smiled and took back the dragon dagger, and said, "The thing of the magic weapon lies in fate, and you have no fate with this treasure." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Lu Ming bowed his head slightly, "Thank you, I'm tired." ”

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "It's okay." If the little brother wants to find the right magic weapon, it is better to try his luck in Tongliu Alley. ”

"Tongliu Alley? What is that place? Lu Ming asked.

"Go out and turn left, go straight, turn left again, turn right at the third intersection, and turn left at the fourth intersection to Tongliu Lane. For hundreds of years, the Taoist priests who came to Longhu Mountain exchanged experiences in Tongliu Lane, replacing idle magic weapons, cheats, etc., which can be regarded as a place of exchange. Maybe you can find what you're looking for there. The middle-aged man guided.

Lu Ming nodded and thanked him: "Thank you, big brother, for your advice, goodbye." ”

The middle-aged man nodded, "Goodbye!" Little brother go slowly! What is needed to come back again. ”

Lu Ming turned around and left this Yi Bao Pavilion, and walked towards Tongliu Lane in the direction pointed by the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man pointed out very clearly, Lu Ming quickly found Tongliu Lane according to the route, in fact, the residents who live at the foot of this Longhu Mountain all know about this place, as long as you come here, you can find it by asking.

Tongliu Lane is a real alley, the total length is more than 100 meters, the passage is narrow, one side is a high stone wall, enough to be two adults high, and the other side is different shops, from the side of the alley, there should be more than a dozen shops in the whole alley. The most common banner in front of the store is a curtain with a large tea character written on it.

The middle-aged man said that this is a place where Taoist priests from all over the world communicate, so they should be among these teahouses, which is a continuation of the ancient tradition of tea shops.

Lu Ming walked in the alley, passing by the tea shop, and he could hear the bustling sound inside. It seems that the business of the tea shop is quite good, Lu Ming did not enter the first tea shop, but walked all the way inside, he wanted to see which tea shop had more people. However, until he walked to the depths of the alley, there was no tea shop, and Lu Ming found that the tea shop business here was hot, and it seemed that there were more people who came to Longhu Mountain every day than he imagined. Although Lu Ming is an agent of the underworld, he doesn't know much about things in the field of metaphysics, half of what he knows comes from books, half of what he knows comes from Mao Xiaotian, and the rest comes from the Zhuge family.

Since there are so many people, if you are a newcomer, let's just enter one! Lu Ming looked up and saw that there was a long plaque in front of him, with four golden characters of "Guangyuan Teahouse" written on it, and a few small words "Century-old shop" next to it, and the year and character names written at the end.

Lu Ming said to himself: "That's it!" Let's take a look! Then he walked in with his legs up.

The teahouse was almost full, but strangely enough, there were exactly three people seated at each square table, and only two people sat at the two scattered tables. Lu Ming didn't see the table where no one was sitting, and was about to call the waiter, when he saw a young man dressed as a shopkeeper in ancient times, carrying a copper kettle with a long mouth, and a white rag on his shoulder, walking over, and said to Lu Ming with a smile: "The guest officer is very raw, the first time he came?" ”

Lu Ming nodded and replied with a smile: "Yes, it's the first time I've come." ”

The shopkeeper was not surprised, and bent down to make a gesture of please, "The guest officer, please." ”

Then he took Lu Ming and walked to the square table where the two people were sitting, and the position where the two people were sitting happened to be in the west and south directions.

The shopkeeper stepped forward, picked up the white rag on his shoulder, symbolically wiped it on the long chair facing north, and said, "The guest officer will sit here!" The rules of the teahouse are that you can sit at will, as long as there is a vacant seat, you can sit if there are less than three people, and you must abide by the rules of the teahouse when you enter the teahouse. This is the list of tea houses, you can take a look first. You call me for something. As he spoke, he took out a booklet from his pocket and handed it to Lu Ming, then turned around and went to add water to the other tables.

Lu Ming looked at the other two people on the table, and only then did he realize that these two people were not surprised by their arrival, and they did not have any special reactions. Lu Ming smiled and nodded to the two, and the two responded politely.

Lu Ming opened the booklet given by the shopkeeper, except for the tea list written on the first page, the others were the rules of the teahouse. Although it was the first time that the guests had to abide by the rules of the teahouse, Lu Ming still flipped through the pamphlet at will. Then he called the shopkeeper and ordered a pot of West Lake Longjing. I was going to return the booklet to the shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper said that it was for the guests, and the booklet remained unchanged all year round, and both new and old customers had a booklet.

Although Lu Ming didn't understand why, he followed the local customs and put it away. Lu Ming drank the West Lake Longjing in the teacup, carefully observing the decoration, personnel, and guests of the teahouse. That's when I discovered another strange thing.

There were three people at each table in the teahouse, except for the one with two, of course. The other square tables, including the table where they sit, have three guests at each table sitting in the same position, and are divided into three directions, all south, west, and north, except for the east where no one sits.

Lu Ming wondered in his heart, "Could it be that this is also the rule of the teahouse?" ”

So he put down the teacup, took out the booklet again, looked at it carefully, and sure enough, there was such a rule in the booklet, "There are four people at the square table in this teahouse, and the other three are located in the trading customer, and the other three sit at will." ”

Although Lu Ming doesn't know what this rule is about, but since he is here, he may find out later, he is a newcomer, he doesn't understand anything, he can only imitate others and use his own body, so as not to get into trouble.

There are still a few Taoist priests dressed in the teahouse, but there are more people dressed in Zhongshan suits, and the rest are dressed casually like Lu Ming. But most of the people dressed like Lu Ming are young people like him, and according to Lu Ming's speculation, there is a good chance that these young people are middle-aged men in Mao suits next to them, apprentices of the old man, and the like.

Lu Ming kept drinking tea, and the two people at the same table also communicated with each other, talking about their own experiences, and Lu Ming was not interested. Xu is two people looked at Lu Ming too young, and they didn't think that he was a person of metaphysics, maybe they came to join in the fun, so they ignored him. In this teahouse, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and there are all masters, so naturally they don't care about Lu Ming's half of the size.

Lu Ming's ear power is amazing, so he can listen carefully to the sound of the entire teahouse, like two people drinking tea at the same table, saying some less useful information, Lu Ming directly filtered it, and some people talked about the method of cultivating internal strength. And as he had assumed, none of the young men seated spoke, but listened quietly......
