A few days later, it was another rainy day.

Tang Yan is still in a dilemma about whether to agree to Mo Beiying and cooperate with Qiu Guangming. I stayed at home bored, watching Tang Yan busy all day long, but I couldn't help much.

In the final analysis, it is a family affair of other people, even if I am my own person, I can't stretch my hand too long, and when it comes to it, my family is still self-appointed and can't stand the legality review.

I was usually bored and stayed at home, only going to the Internet and playing games, but then I felt that I was too lazy, and I had to put some effort into eating other people's products, so I wiped the house spotlessly.

But no matter how big Tang Yan's mansion is, it will be cleaned up one day, but when I finished cleaning it up, I found that its dirt resistance is much better than that of ordinary families. A lot of furnishings, only need to be wiped once in a while, you can manage a year and a half, as for some guest rooms, they themselves are idle all year round, after a dust, if you want to accumulate another layer of dust, I am afraid it will take a certain amount of time.

If I go and sweep it again, I'm afraid even Tang Yan will think I'm fine. In desperation, I had to find another way to live.

After thinking about it, I still decided to go to Xu Duobao. It's not because the last thing hasn't been cleaned up, but to go to his shop to relieve boredom, after all, the master's craftsmanship can not be lost, this antique appreciation ability is not learned in books, must be practiced to learn the truth.

Xu Duobao wished that a free "master" like me would go to him every day, and he could spend only a few yuan for tea, without thinking about salary, how could there be such a good deal in the world. So, Xu Duobao every day to treat me as an uncle, as soon as there are difficult customers, let me go out, if I successfully win a few big customers, his day's fart is like flowing water, rushing more than once, so that I feel ashamed.

On this day, when it was close to noon, the door of the store was pushed open, and Xu Duobao came back.

I saw Xu Duobao enter the door, and I was about to say hello, but when Xu Yaxian behind him entered my sight, my face suddenly became gloomy.

Xu Yaxian wore a goose-yellow gauze skirt today, which completely brought out her delicate and moving appearance. She didn't care when she saw me staring at her with a bluffed face, and swept her gaze towards the Bogu shelf as soon as she entered.

"Lin Kun, thank you for saving my mother and Yaxian, I should have gone to your house, but it was not appropriate for the two of us to go so presumptuously, I specially thanked you today." Xu Duobao walked up to me and delivered a thick red envelope to me as he spoke.

"Lao Xu, what are you doing here? I have already taken your things, how can I ask for your money again? I pushed the red envelope away.

It's the income I deserve, but as a friend, I have to be humble. This is called human favor, if you accept it with a big grin, people feel a little awkward.

Xu Duobao saw me doing this, and deliberately quipped, "Lin Kun, if you don't accept this money, won't you treat me as a brother?" Can't you let me express our friends for so many years? ”

Since Xu Duobao has said so, of course I can't excuse myself.

At this moment, Xu Yaxian interjected a sentence without yin or yang, "Lin Kun, didn't you say last time that many of my second uncle's things came out of the ancient tomb?" ”

"Girl, you've really read too many tomb robbery notes! You won't let go of your own second uncle? I replied angrily with a pout.

"Humph! You said it yourself, not me. Xu Yaxian slipped to my side with her hands behind her back as she spoke, "Stinky boy, I came to thank you today, but I didn't quarrel with you." If I wanted to quarrel with you, I wouldn't have come with my second uncle. ”

When I heard Xu Yaxian say this, I couldn't cry or laugh at the time, and I came over with you to thank you, I still have to greet each other with a smile?

"Humph! I remember the day before yesterday when someone was leaving, they said they wanted to soak me. Xu Yaxian tilted her head and circled around me.

I opened my mouth, but I couldn't get the words out of my mouth.

Xu Yaxian is indeed a difficult girl! She knew that I was in front of Xu Duobao, so it must be difficult to say too much. Therefore, when she said this, it was equivalent to gagging my mouth.

Xu Duobao saw that I was speechless with my mouth open, and knew that Xu Yaxian and I didn't deal with each other, so he hurriedly came out to play a round, patted me on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, Lin Kun, in order to express my gratitude to you, I invite you to drink." ”

After saying this, he leaned his mouth to my ear and whispered: "My niece is amazing, the tyrant of my old Xu family, you kid will have to look at it in the future." ”

I grinned bitterly, thinking to myself, Xu Yaxian is not powerful, does it matter to me? I'm a soy sauce maker.

However, as for Xu Duobao's proposal to go out to eat, I gladly accepted it. On this rainy day, I was bored in the store, so I thought I was going outside to breathe.

But at this moment, two other people walked in from outside.

Xu Duobao saw that a guest came to the door, so he naturally greeted him warmly. After they had talked for a few words, he walked quickly to my side, "Lin Kun, those two guests have something to see you." ”

"Something?" Xu Duobao and I were about to go out to eat, of course we didn't want to be disturbed, so we waved our hands and said, "Old Xu, this is your shop, it's up to you to decide the affairs of the store, I don't have any acquaintances here, we should still eat." ”

"But they don't want to see you by name, and they say they have something very important to talk to you about."

"Something very important?" I heard Xu Duobao say this, and my eyes looked at the two people standing in the store.

I saw that the two of them were wearing gray Taoist robes, this kind of dress should be Taoist priests, even if they are not in Taoist temples, they should be cultivators, and they look no different from ordinary people. But when I noticed the tattoos behind their ears, it looked like they had been pricked with needles.

I know these two people are by no means very human, and it seems that I can't do it.

I just don't know how they found me, and how they found here.

Sensing my gaze, two Taoist priests walked up to me.

The first half step was an old Taoist priest, with gray sideburns and a wrinkled face like the bark of an aged tree; Half a step behind, hiding behind the old Taoist priest was a young girl, who seemed to be unaccustomed to contact with people, and seemed a little restrained.

Seeing that I had something, Xu Duobao said hello in a witty way, and took the initiative to give me the friendship of the landlord, but he left with Xu Yaxian first.

Looking at the two uninvited guests in front of me, I really felt a little headache, but I couldn't turn them away, so I could only welcome them into the reception room.

"Dao Chief, please!"

"Courteous."

Closing the door of the reception room, I was about to beckon the two of them to sit down, when I saw the old Taoist priest softly chanting an awkward pre-Qin ancient saying, and at the same time closing his hands in front of his left chest, his fingertips crossed and folded, making a strange gesture.

"Do you read the ancient words of the pre-Qin Dynasty?" Although I am not proficient in this ancient dialect of the pre-Qin Dynasty, it is like the craft of settling down, and you have to know a little bit in Yuling.

Hearing my words, a glimmer of brilliance flashed in the old Taoist's dull eyes, and his waist, which was originally slightly rickety, suddenly straightened up a little, and with a solemn expression, he made the same gesture on his right chest, and chanted again in a peculiar tone.

"If I guess correctly, this should be an ancient pre-Qin word that circulated in western Sichuan, and it was born after the Qin State conquered Shu, but I was only shallow in my knowledge and failed to understand the deep meaning."

My words are naturally modest expressions, and his two pre-Qin ancient sayings, as well as the strange gestures he made, are not simple pre-Qin ancient words, but are actually "cuts" that have been passed down from generation to generation in the Taoist school. The reason why it is said to be an "incision" is not really used for joints, mainly because these Taoist schools are relatively special, and their main business is not to cultivate immortals and alchemy pills, but to subdue demons and eliminate demons.

These Taoist priests walked the rivers and lakes, met the same door, or peers, they would use this "incision" to communicate, just listen to the ancient words, look at the gestures, you can recognize the pulse to which they belong.

The old Taoist priest smiled and said without saying a word: "You are too modest, this set of pre-Qin ancient sayings of the poor Taoist is a master who passed on himself, and my master is a professor of Master Tai, in the final analysis, the real source of this ancient saying is not in my Daomen, but in——"

He paused deliberately before continuing: "Yuling! ”

I didn't expect this old Taoist priest to already know my identity, which made me even more suspicious of the identities of the two of them. Although I can basically be sure that these two people should be demon-slaying Taoists in western Sichuan, what I can't be sure of is whether these two Taoist priests who came from thousands of miles are friends and foes.

Even if this ancient saying is really passed down by Yuling, I can't take it lightly. After all, thousands of years have passed, time has passed, and the two Taoist priests who suddenly appeared, what is the purpose. Besides, I don't really have much interest in the stories of our ancestors that can be heard as myths.

The old Taoist priest didn't know my thoughts, a little smile appeared on his face, and said: "It's okay if you don't believe me, I originally thought it would take a lot of words to make you believe in our identity, but I didn't expect you to know the ancient language of the pre-Qin Dynasty, which is really rare." ”

"It's not a secret, the old Taoist is a Taoist priest of Jiuzhaigou Yunxiangguan."

"Yunxiangguan?" Sure enough, I didn't know about this Taoist temple.

"Caiyun, I've come to see the gods and ghosts." This sentence was said by the old Taoist priest to the young female Taoist priest.

Hearing this, the female Taoist priest named Caiyun raised her little head that had been hanging low, revealing a delicate face, her eyes swept me quickly, and then quickly drooped down, like a frightened little animal, and said timidly: "I've seen the honorable driver." ”

The moment I saw this girl, I suddenly felt a sense of familiarity in my heart, as if I had known this girl a long time ago.

Have I seen her before? I frowned slightly, trying to remember the past, but I couldn't find the slightest clue. Because I was so concerned, I didn't notice at all that the old Taoist priest had a look of pity on his face when he looked at me and the girl.

"Hehe, I forgot to introduce myself, the old Taoist name is Yunsheng, her name is Caiyun, although she follows me to cultivate, she is not a member of my sect."

The old Taoist priest's sudden words interrupted my thoughts, and I shifted my attention from the girl back to the old Taoist priest.

"Daoist Yunsheng, I don't know if there is something wrong with the sudden arrival of the two of you?" I asked tentatively.
