Xu Zhisheng took a deep breath, and after being mentally prepared, he slowly knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Hearing someone answer from inside, he slowly pushed the door open.

As soon as she entered, she was greeted by a plain screen with a cushion in front of it, which seemed to be prepared for her.

Xu Zhisheng walked over and sat on the cushion in a regular manner, and from her perspective, a human figure was faintly seen from the screen.

"What do you want to know?" The pavilion master's voice was a little lazy, as if he had just woken up.

Xu Zhisheng already had the answer in her heart, and seeing that the pavilion master went straight to the point, she stopped talking nonsense, "I want to know who the owner of this token is." ”

After speaking, she took out the drawing from her body, and a token was drawn on it, but she didn't know how to hand the drawing to the pavilion master.

"Bring it."

Feeling the plain clothes that came to him, Xu Zhisheng recalled the case in the script where the supporting role was killed after seeing the true face of the big guy, and hurriedly lowered his head and handed over the drawings, for fear that he would see the face of the pavilion master and then be destroyed and destroyed.

Seeing Xu Zhisheng's uneasy appearance, a little mockery appeared at the corner of his mouth, "You don't have to be afraid of me." ”

"Oh good." Dispelling the illusions in his mind, Xu Zhisheng gradually relaxed.

Seeing the change in Xu Zhisheng's entire aura, He Zhibai retracted his gaze, slowly walked back to the screen, and lay down.

After finding a comfortable position, he took a cursory look at the drawings on it, until he saw some small details of the token, and his eyes lit up, "This is what you painted?" ”

"Hmm."

After getting the answer, He Zhibai realized that he had just despised the person in front of him.

Sure enough, the master is in the world.

He sat up, not as perfunctory as before, but looked at it carefully, and then chuckled, "It's funny." ”

He Zhibai walked out of the screen and returned the drawings to Xu Zhisheng.

This time, Xu Zhisheng saw his face, not as terrifying as he said in the book, but like ordinary people, he was about forty years old, but he was well maintained, but he just had a world-weary face, giving people a feeling of alienation.

He didn't speak, he walked to the cabinet.

He took out a wooden house drawing from the cabinet and placed it in front of Xu Zhisheng, "You come and see." ”

Xu Zhisheng is a room designer, of course, she is extremely sensitive to drawings, and when she saw this drawing, she quickly thought of something, "Xiaozhige? ”

He Zhibai nodded with satisfaction, "Go on." ”

Xu Zhisheng re-studied the drawings and found that Xiaozhige was different from other places.

That is, he is good at using some clever mechanisms in hidden places, which can deliver information to the destination as soon as possible.

It is worthy of knowing the secrets in the martial arts, Xu Zhisheng sighed.

Through Xu Zhisheng's reaction, He Zhibai knew that she had understood the meaning, and couldn't help but show off: "I designed it." ”

In this way, the two of them hated each other, and soon discussed around the design, Xu Zhisheng brought him advanced ideas, not to mention Bai also gave her different ideas, and they both learned a lot of things from each other.

After some discussion, Xu Zhisheng felt unfinished, but thinking that there were still partners waiting for her outside, she still stopped the topic, "I'm almost leaving." ”

"Okay, we'll talk next time." He looked at her in vain, as if he saw his former self.

Thinking of the past, he couldn't help but bow his head and caress his right hand with his left hand, "Remember to protect your hands." ”

His voice was very soft, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was talking to Xu Zhisheng.

"Well, I see."

In fact, Xu Zhisheng has already discovered that He Zhibai has always been using his left hand, whether it is holding drawings or pulling drawers, at first Xu Zhisheng thought he was left-handed, but now I am afraid that there is another hidden secret.

Just as Xu Zhisheng was about to leave, He Zhibai stopped her, "By the way, that token is from the palace guard." ”

Palace? Dark Guard? Xu Zhisheng was a little puzzled, "Can you be specific about who instructed it?" ”

"This can't be done, you also know that the court doesn't ask about the rivers and lakes." Then He Zhibai paused again, revealing a playful smile, "But as compensation, I can tell you about the second brother Zhou Quan." ”

Hearing the second brother Zhou Quan, Xu Zhisheng frowned, but soon stretched out again, Xiaozhige knew about the world, and he must have figured out his own details.

"We don't have much to do here, you can probably guess why."

"Are you saying that someone deliberately concealed my second brother's identity?"

"Clever." He raised his eyebrows, "I'll tell you one more news, he has a birthmark on his back." ”

Xu Zhisheng silently wrote down in his heart, "I know, farewell." ”

"Hmm."

watched Xu Zhisheng disappear under his sight, and in the next second, he returned to his original seat and returned to a lazy state.

Before he could be quiet for a while, he felt that someone was visiting.

Having confirmed who this person was, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

My old friend, you're finally back.

///

Leaving Xiaozhi Pavilion, Wu Peiqing and Xia Zhen were still waiting in place, except for Fu Jingrong.

"Where's Fu Jingrong?"

Wu Peiqing recalled Fu Jingrong's words before leaving, "It was said that there was something to do, so let's leave first." ”

"Oh." Xu Zhisheng felt a little lost in his heart, but soon disappeared, "Then let's go back to the inn and wait for him." ”

"Okay."

Wu Peiqing walked forward in a daze, leaving Xu Zhisheng and Xia Zhen behind, since he knew Xia Zhen's thoughts, he was now much more relieved about Xia Zhen.

It is this peace of mind that leaves room for Xia Zhen and Xu Zhisheng to secretly communicate with each other.

"How?" Xia Zhen asked.

Xu Zhisheng shook his head, "There are no clues, just that they are the secret guards of the palace." ”

"It's better not to say it." Xia Zhen complained ruthlessly.

Xu Zhisheng was amused by Xia Zhen, in fact, she also felt so.

She and Xia Zhen had a serious discussion, and they also collected a lot of information about various token patterns, and the scope was locked to someone in the palace.

From this point of view, He Zhibai's words are indeed relatively unspoken.

However, I was able to make a friend like He Zhibai, and I also knew the news of the second brother Zhou Quan, and I gained a little this time.

They walked unhurriedly, and before they could reach the inn, they heard a noise coming from inside.

Seeing that the sound was Wu Peiqing and the shopkeeper, Xu Zhisheng pulled Wu Peiqing aside, "What's the matter?" ”

"This black-hearted shopkeeper wants us a tael of silver, which is half the price of usual." After speaking, Wu Peiqing also glared at the shopkeeper.

Where would the shopkeeper be afraid of him, of course, he also glared back, and did not forget to defend himself, "Xiaozhige chose someone who was destined to answer, and everyone came one after another, of course the price will rise, and I am also clearly marked with the price." ”

"You didn't say it at the time."

"Then you didn't ask."

Seeing that they didn't believe it, the shopkeeper took out his nirvana and pointed to the small board next to it with the fee bill, and the fees on it did add up to one or two.

It's also to blame that they didn't pay attention at the time and accidentally got on this thief ship, and now they are the ones who are at fault, so they can only admit to paying the money.

When he paid the money, Wu Peiqing's heart was dripping blood.

He considers himself the head of the family... One of them, after all, in the past few years, he has made a lot of money selling medicinal materials and treating people, thinking that Xia Shen has traveled around in the past few years, it is estimated that he has no silver taels on his body, let alone the third sister, so most of the expenses along the way are paid by him.

Now it costs another one or two, which makes the already not wealthy family even worse.

Wu Peiqing, who no longer had the heart to pack up her things, silently set up a stall at the door, and advanced her schedule to help people see a doctor a few days earlier.

As soon as the stall was set up, a figure landed next to him, and when he saw the person, Wu Peiqing was a little puzzled, "Third sister, why are you here?" ”

It's all tears, Xu Zhisheng is a little sad, last time he gave all his belongings to Ah Huan, and now he is penniless, and now he can only rely on painting skills to support himself.

"I'm here to sell paintings."

Where would Wu Peiqing let the third sister suffer, and hurriedly comforted her, "You don't have to worry, Second Brother Qing can definitely support you, you just sit on the side and watch me." ”

Listening to what Wu Peiqing said, Xu Zhisheng's heart was a little warm, but she had to support herself and couldn't always rely on them.

"It's okay Second Brother Qing, I like to paint, and I make money while painting, why not do it?"

"Okay then." Wu Peiqing knew that he couldn't beat the third sister, so he had to let her play on her own, and he was responsible for everything.

Unexpectedly, the third sister's business was extremely hot, especially when she heard that Xu Zhisheng was painting, many people came to ask for a painting.

In fact, Xu Zhisheng didn't expect his name to be so widespread.

When she was in the capital of Southern Qi before, she cooperated with others, and every time she went down the mountain, she secretly brought a few paintings and handed them over to others to sell, so since then, a painter named Xu Zhisheng has become active in the eyes of everyone.

Xu Zhisheng learned from Xiaozhige, picked one person from it, and made a painting for him at the price of one or two.

So Xia Zhen, who had just packed up his things and came down, saw them sitting there, one side was about to be completed, and the other side was unattended, and there was a sharp contrast.

Looking at Wu Peiqing, whose business was so bleak, Xia Zhenxin moved, walked over, and threw one or two on Wu Peiqing, "Take care of this time." ”

Afraid that Wu Peiqing would refuse, Xia Zhen simply walked away, so that Wu Peiqing didn't even have a chance to speak.

"Don't worry, Brother Xia Shen is very rich, except that he is the grandson of Uncle Xia, or the only grandson of the wealthy Ruan family."

At this time, Xu Zhisheng had already finished painting, helped Xia Zhen speak, and handed the painting to the person who bought the painting by the way.

The person who bought the painting was very satisfied, and gave her an extra tael of silver.

Wu Peiqing looked at the silver in his hand, knowing more about Xia Zhen's identity, and he had a strange feeling in his heart.

He held back for a long time before he slowly spoke, "Third sister, I feel that Xia Shen likes me." ”

What?

Before Xu Zhisheng could react, he saw Wu Peiqing turn this sentence into an affirmative sentence, "Xia Shen likes me." ”

I don't know if Xia Zhen told Second Brother Qing that she was a woman, Xu Zhisheng asked tentatively: "But Brother Xia Shen is a man." ”

"So what's the matter, I don't mind anyway."

Oh, it turned out that there was no, Xu Zhisheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Just looking at Wu Peiqing like this, Xu Zhisheng probably guessed that they had made a big fuss.
