Zun Bao followed the direction of the voice, and saw a red cloth curtain hung with 'Thirty-six generations of Heavenly Master Dao of Longhu Mountain', and a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a dark Taoist robe was talking endlessly, and the two men sitting in front of him had anxious expressions on their faces, and it seemed that what they encountered was also important.

The Supreme Treasure slowly touched it, while listening to the Taoist priest speak: "... The price of this altar is very small, and then there is a silver horn for each of the sacrifices, the purification of the mouth, the opening of the light, the opening of the mirror, and the opening of incense, and the use of the Five Elements Flag, the Sanqing Token, the money peach wood sword, and the full set of magic tools are two each, and..."Looking at the way he crossed his fingers, it seemed that there were many things to prepare, and they all had to collect money one by one.

The two young men in front of him suddenly became impatient, and one of the men in Tsing Yi suddenly interrupted him: "Hey, I said, I know some of the rules here, don't give me the same kind of calculation, come to a total price, if it is suitable, this matter will be handed over to you, if we think it is not suitable, we will go to find someone else, okay?" ”

The man in the ink robe who came with him hurriedly helped, "Yes, yes!" Although he said so, the momentum was clearly a little less.

Hearing this, the Taoist priest of Xuanfu hurriedly snorted, thought about it, stretched out a slap and flipped over: "Ten oceans, keep your house safe, there are no taboos!" ”

"Ten is ten..."

"It's expensive!"

At the same time, the meaning is two.

The Supreme Treasure listened to the words, and guessed that the man in the ink robe clearly agreed to the price of the ten oceans, but the man in Tsing Yi felt that it was too expensive, so he spoke up to stop him—but it seemed that he obeyed the man in Tsing Yi. Seeing him speak, he swallowed back half of his words, just staring at the man beside him, "Uh, what Brother Tang Yuan said, what he said..."

Tang Yuan, a man in Tsing Yi, nodded and said to the Taoist priest: "There is indeed an accident in my friend's family, and I really need a master to open the altar, this matter is true-but this money, hum." Fixed price. Five oceans, pay a deposit first, if you can really get things done, you will pay the rest on the spot! ”

Hear that. The Taoist priest immediately picked it up. Hesitated: "This..."

"Don't bargain!" Tang Yuan didn't wait for him to speak. Immediately interrupted him: "Okay, or not, just these two sentences." Don't tell me anything else! He smiled: "I know, most of the rules for the practice of raising altars in this city are three oceans, and five oceans is very sufficient, don't pretend to me that you don't know, think about it yourself!" ”

"Okay!" The Taoist priest heard this, and knew that the person who came also knew a lot about this business, and he was afraid that even the five oceans would fly when the time came, so he hurriedly responded: "Then this matter will be said!" You go back first, wait for me to pack up, and when you arrive, you will come and pick me up to do the Fa, okay? ”

"Okay!" Tang Yuan agreed: "And then-" slapped the ocean on the table... The man in the ink robe seemed to have something to say, but Tang Yuan stopped making a noise when he pulled him, and just let Tang Yuan settle the matter.

After the deposit was paid, the two men left after some advice, and the Supreme Treasure shuttled through the bustling flow of people, following them from a distance - the two men did not leave in a hurry when they walked out of the eighteenth alley, but got into a tea shop facing the street and shouted two bowls of hot noodles.

The local hot noodles are a kind of noodles that are cooked and then dried, put them in a bowl before eating, pour sesame oil, sesame seeds, peanuts, salt, puff pastry, boil water and rinse, simmer for three or five minutes before eating, the taste is fragrant and smooth, the operation is simple and convenient, it can be regarded as a kind of local relatively ordinary pastry - the teahouse here basically has this kind of food, and the rich man adds two donkey meat to the fire, it is a rare delicacy.

The two men called for scalding water and fire very casually, and it seemed that their family background was not bad.

The Supreme Treasure walked unhurriedly to the stone steps of the tea shop and sat down, seemingly lazily basking in the sun, but in fact intently eavesdropping on the conversation between the two... The man in the ink robe couldn't help but sigh, looking very worried, but Tang Yuan couldn't help but be relieved by the side.

I only heard Tang Yuandao: "Brother Lou Kang, you don't have to worry too much about this matter!" We will do this according to the agreed method, if one does not work, we will find ten, if ten does not work, we will find a hundred... In the end, we will find someone who has the ability to solve it and restore peace to your home. ”

Ink shirt Lou Kang sighed and said: "Brother Tang, I can't hide it, I'm worried about this matter!" Although my family has been doing business for generations and does not know the art of yin and yang, but it is also a rough trick to recognize people and colors, and only the one we are looking for in front of the entire land temple is slightly like this, and the others are even more unbearable... I'm afraid that if this man can't subdue the sneaky people in the house, then what should we do? ”

Tang Yuan thought for a while, and suddenly said: "As the saying goes, brine and tofu are one thing and one thing is down, how do you know if you haven't tried it?" Let's wait for this Taoist priest to try, if it doesn't work... Change a few more and see if anyone can clean up. ”

When he spoke, Lou Kang was still worried in his heart, and Tang Yuan paused and said, "Cough! If it doesn't work again, I'll go and find some way for you, and ask someone to invite the southern Maoshan heirs to come to visit, do you think it's okay? ”

"Really?" When these words came out, Lou Kang showed joy in an instant: "What are you talking about, but the Zhang family of the Southern Maoshan Technique in the 'North Sect Ma Huang and South Mao Zhang, West Stone Yin and Yang and East Ga Descending'?" ”

"Yes, it's Master Nanmao Zhang!" Tang Yuan nodded: "My father and Master Zhang have old friends, but I am seven or eight points sure that I can ask Master Zhang to help, but the journey between the north and the south is too far for more than a month, and I don't want to make a big deal unless I have to... Alas! I still hope to find a talented person nearby, and it is best to solve this matter! ”

"I hope so," Lou Kang thought for a moment and sighed again, "Let's eat noodles first." Then, there was the sound of Sili snoring and eating noodles.

The two of them didn't say anything about the conversation, but just let the Supreme Treasure roughly guess: this happened in the Lou family who was doing business, and Tang Yuan had a close relationship with this Lou Kang, so he came to help-it seemed that he was more familiar with these three sects and nine streams, and he had also walked around, so he took the idea for Lou Kang and came to find a Fang Shi method... As for what it means, 'Ma Huang in the north and Mao Zhang in the south, Yin and Yang in the west and Yin and Yang in the east' mean. He didn't know, and he couldn't speculate.

As for what happened in the Lou family, the Supreme Treasure still has to go and investigate... The only thing he has now is to be able to make Wu Xian form a stick of incense that day, and deal with some little ghosts and monsters, but he never dares to hold it up!

At this time, noon had passed, and before the time came, the Supreme Treasure sat down under the eaves for tea, and the two men had already stopped eating and drinking and walked out, along the street all the way to the west, until they reached the edge of the junction of Xicheng and Beicheng. Got into a shop.

Supreme Treasure looked up. There are a few gilded characters on the shop: Lou Ji leather goods!

Only then did I understand in my heart that the Lou family was originally engaged in leather trading, so it was no wonder that he could be regarded as a businessman.

Most of the shops in Xianyang are located in the front and back yards, that is, the shops and halls in front of one in and one out. Doing business, negotiating and buying and selling are all in the front; Behind is a small courtyard. Opposite is the small building where the owner's family lives; On both sides are warehouses and working rooms. On the other side is the courtyard gate for large vehicles to enter and exit.

Looking at the appearance of this house, although it is not a big family, it should also be a small businessman in this city who does not worry about eating and drinking. If you can really help with this matter, you have to have a reward of more than a dozen oceans - the Supreme Treasure walked around the courtyard twice, and Zuihou paced to the door of the backyard, and his heart was steady, "Okay, it seems that God really opened his eyes, help me prepare the coil for the first time." ”

He hurriedly looked up, and suddenly saw a wisp of gray smoke entrenched on the roof, which seemed to be condensed but not dispersed, and the wind could not blow, revealing his limbs, claws, fur, and tail, and he really looked like a four-legged beast.

"Why, what is this?" The Supreme Treasure was about to concentrate on it, when he suddenly heard a crisp voice next to him shouting, "Bah! Who are you? Why are you looking at this sneaky look? ”

Supreme Treasure was taken aback, and suddenly turned around, only to see that the courtyard door suddenly opened at some point. There was a small guy standing at the door, holding a bucket of swill in his hand and scolding him with slanted eyes, and he moved in his heart and went up with a smile:

"Yikes! Little brother, I'm so polite! ”

"Who's your little brother?" The little guy didn't appreciate it and shouted, "Honestly, what the hell do you do? If you don't say it, I'll tell the lord to take you and send you to the yamen. ”

"Don't, don't!" Supreme Treasure hurriedly begged for mercy: "Little brother, I'm just a passerby, I usually sing a lotus flower and beg for some food - no, I heard that something happened to your master's family, I want to come and see, can you... Hey... You get the idea. ”

When he said this, the little guy immediately understood what he meant--the beggar usually holds two bamboo boards in his hand to beat the beat, and that thing is called 'counting treasures', and the mouth makes up a smooth rap, then it is called 'lotus falling', these two things are unique to beggars who go from south to north, but if there is this, it is a beggar who has confirmed his identity. They sometimes rely on finding out news in exchange for rewards, or kicking people to run errands, and when they mention themselves, it's just this sentence:

'The lotus flower in the mouth falls, and the treasure is counted in the hand. ’

If you want to say that the clothes of the Supreme Treasure are like a beggar, the little guy looked at him a few times, and suddenly his expression became strange: "You want to know that this thing is also simple, but there is a colorful head?" ”

Caitou is a greeting gift, which means that you give others a benefit when you inquire about the news. The Supreme Treasure was only remembered by him when he mentioned it, and he hurriedly took out a few mountain fruits from the cloth bag and stuffed them into his hand: "There is nothing else for the time being, can you take it first?" ”

"Don't!" When the little guy saw that it was not money, he immediately turned his face: "Who wants the fruit of your Rausch!" With a wave of his hand, he was about to pour the swill and turn back, and the Supreme Treasure hurriedly walked up a few steps and pulled him down, so that he could stuff the fruit into his hand and beg for a favor in his mouth:

"Little brother, little brother, don't be angry! I really don't have any money in my hand now, I'll give you these fruits first, and when I have the money, I'll definitely give you a share, okay? He clung to the little man's bucket of swill and didn't let go: "You see, a few fruits are better than nothing, aren't they?" Take it first, don't dislike it, turn back, I'll make it up when I get back! ”

The little guy was caught by the Supreme Treasure, and then he clearly found that the beggar in front of him was tall and strong, and saw that he was in a hurry, for fear that he would be annoyed, so he turned around and made himself swill, so he scolded: "That's it!" Seeing that you are pitiful, I will tell you the matter, remember, come back and divide me with the good - let go, let go, don't mess with me! (To be continued......)
