To go or not to go, choose one of the two, some people can choose, and some people don't. Shen Yixia has a choice whether to go to the hot pot restaurant to find Sima Bei, and Li Jun has no choice if he returns to City A.

After Nie Yi and Li Jun arrived in City A, they temporarily separated from Zhang Xiaoman, thinking that they had not been to their base camp since they came back, so they immediately called a taxi and went straight to the detective agency. As soon as the two of them opened the door of Yiming Society, they saw a man sitting in Nie Yi's office, holding a cigarette between his fingers, and his back to them.

Li Jun groaned slightly, put on an exaggerated expression, stretched out his right hand and pointed at the man, and said with his nostrils facing the sky, "Who are you?" What are you doing sitting in our detective agency? Stealing? Breaking into someone's house in broad daylight and stealing something? Who gave you the guts! Article 245 of the Criminal Law provides that whoever illegally trespasses into another person's residence shall be sentenced to up to three years imprisonment or short-term detention. Don't look at this detective agency as an office, but the word "residence" is written in the purpose column of the house book, you are finished, and you are going to go to prison for three years of further study! ”

"I've heard for a long time that one of Zhang Xiaoman's apprentices is a chatterbox, and today I saw that it really deserved its name," the man turned around, snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, and spit out the last puff of white mist, "I'm sorry, I've been waiting for a long time, I'm a little tired, I smoked a cigarette here with you, you shouldn't mind, right?" ”

Nie Yi waved his hand and stumbled, "No...... All right! Are you here...... You can burn incense and worship the Buddha...... It's just that...... Can you ...... Tell me...... What's your last name? ”

The man raised his hand, "Don't be expensive." ”

Li Jun rolled his eyes angrily and grabbed the words, "What's your surname?" ”

"The surname is Zhou," the man clapped his hands and stood up, "a single name is a soldier, a soldier who catches thieves." ”

"Zhou Bing from the procuratorate?" Nie Yi no longer pretended to stutter, and asked clearly, "Dare to ask what you are doing here?" ”

"You are Nie Yi, your brain is really good ......" Zhou Bing took out an arrest warrant and said with a smile, "I came here to invite the two of you to live in a quiet place for a while, and cultivate your self-cultivation." That place is isolated from the world, there is no worry about eating and drinking, and there is a time for daily work and rest, ensuring that the two of them will not want to return. How about it, can the two of you be tempted, go or not? ”

Li Jun's eyes rolled, taking advantage of Zhou Bing's attention to Nie Yi, he quietly paced to his office, took out the note paper and pen from his pocket, quickly wrote down a string of numbers, tore off the note paper, opened the drawer, put the note in it, suddenly touched something soft, took it out and took a look, and exclaimed, "Ouch, I'll go!" ”

Nie Yi and Zhou Bing followed the sound and saw a green snake about one meter long and two fingers wide lazily wrapped around Li Jun's arm, spitting out a letter and trying to lick Li Jun's face.

Zhou Bing smiled, tilted his head and said, "Look, your partners have agreed, it's not easy for you to refuse, the husband doesn't leave the mother-in-law, the scales don't leave the stone, you two should be firmly tied together." ”

As if he hadn't heard Zhou Bing's words, Nie Yi walked quickly towards Li Jun, tore the green snake off Li Jun's arm, pinched the seven inches, looked at it carefully, loosened his shoulders, and said to Li Jun in a calm tone, "It's the second brother, not another poisonous snake." ”

"Stick dick?" Li Jun opened his eyes, took a closer look, relaxed his expression, and touched the head of the green snake, "It's true, I haven't seen you for a month or two, how can you eat a pig...... I was startled just now, I thought it was going to bite me, but it turned out to be trying to kiss me......"

Nie suddenly remembered that when he first went back to City A to investigate the drop of blood in the villa, Zhang Yunxi said that he had put something in Yiming Society, shook his head with a wry smile, and then frowned tightly again, silent.

Li Jun noticed the change in Nie Yi's expression and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”

"We were deceived by Yunxi...... Nie Yi closed his eyes and sighed heavily, "Let me ask you, who raised the second stick?" ”

Li Jun said without thinking, "Sun Tiantian! ”

"But the second stick is Yunxi's detective agency," Nie Yi touched his chin and said, "You must know that the second stick is nothing else, it is Xiaoqing's mother, Sun Tiantian has always regarded them as relatives, not to mention being taken away by others, just waiting for idlers to touch it......"

Li Jun was stunned for a moment, "Are you saying that Yunxi and Tiantian knew each other in the first place?" ”

"Not only acquaintance, to be precise, should be very related." Nie Yi pouted and said, "The second stick is 4 years old this year, we only got acquainted with Tian Tian three years ago under the introduction of Uncle Man, in the past three years, Yun Xi has been with us except for writing books, and she has not met Tian Tian at all, but she can bring the second stick to the detective agency, which shows that she and Tian Tian have known each other for longer than the two of us...... The two of us have been used from the beginning, and we really underestimated Yunxi......"

Li Jun pretended to have a deep face, fanned off the big green cotton jacket, and said melancholy, "I really responded to that sentence, the more beautiful a woman is, the more I can't believe it, it's so heartbroken!" ”

The corners of Zhou Bing's eyes twitched, and he interjected, "I said, two, are you a little rude, why don't you ignore me while chatting, and use me as air, right?" Answer me, to go or not to go? ”

Nie Yi walked up to Zhou Bing, stretched out his hands, and smiled shyly, "I'm so happy!" ”

"What kind of calf," Zhou Bing rolled his eyes, "I'm not a policeman, where did the handcuffs come from, and the handcuffs are tortured villains, you are gentlemen, you don't need to be tortured." ”

"Why are you still raising snakes in the office to play, it's quite a bluffing ......" Zhou Bing coughed lightly, glanced at the green snake on Nie's hand, and reached out to learn from Li Jun's previous appearance to touch the snake's head, who knew that the green snake suddenly showed a fierce light, bit him fiercely, immediately retracted his right hand, and sucked the wound with his mouth, "Why do you still bite?" It's good that it's not a poisonous snake, otherwise it would have ......."

Li Jun stared at Zhou Bing like a fool, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, and said unhurriedly, "Who told you that this is not a poisonous snake?" ”

Zhou Bing's eyes suddenly burst, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and by the way, he swallowed the black blood he had just sucked into his stomach, pointed at Nie Yi and muttered, "He obviously said it himself just now......

Nie Yi touched his nose and blinked his eyes shyly, "My original words are 'not other poisonous snakes', not that they are not poisonous snakes. ”

Zhou Bing suddenly felt dizzy, and asked with a big tongue, "Poison...... Is it toxic? ”

"Xiaoqing, the daughter of the second son, has a nickname, called Seven Steps Down ......" Li Jun smiled evilly and looked at Zhou Bing's wound Nunu mouth, "Look at your wound, is it poisonous...... Glance. ”

Zhou Bing glanced down at the black wound on his right hand, and immediately rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.

Nie Yi squatted down, patted Zhou Bing's face, and seeing that Zhou Bing didn't react in the slightest, he turned his head to look at Li Jun, pouted and said, "What are you scaring him for, the poison of the second stick is just to look at bluffing, at most it just makes people paralyzed and faint for a while, and it can't kill people." After you said that, it was like a poison king who would die if he was touched, and he directly scared people out of anger. ”

"Come on, you're embarrassed to say me, who brought the dick to the house?" Li Jun pouted and said, "Don't think that I don't know what your idea is, I deliberately raised my hands, didn't I just want to arouse the heart of the second brother's protector?" With a smile on his face, he almost wrote on his forehead, 'Come and touch it, it's so cute'...... What a bad guy to be with me at this time! ”

Just as Nie Yi wanted to defend a few words, there was a knock at the door of the detective agency, Nie Yi helped Zhou Bing to lie down on the sofa, coughed a few times, and said loudly, "Please come in!" ”

The door creaked open, Shen Yixia walked in with a hippie smile, looked at the steaming hot pot on the table, and then looked at Sima Bei, who had one foot on the stool, pinched his chopsticks and scooped up a piece of mutton from the hot pot and put it in the bowl.

Knock knock!

After kowtowing three times in a row, Shen Yixia knelt on the ground and lowered his head, and said in a straight voice, "Master is above, and Shen Yixia is here to visit!" ”

"Get up," Sima Bei glanced at Shen Yixia lazily, picked up his wine glass, and took a sip, "It's all the 21st century, don't do the old feudal thing." Sit down, let's eat together, drink together, and have a good chat. ”

"No," Shen Yixia stood up, slowly walked to Sima Bei and sat down, holding the wine glass in both hands, raising it to a point slightly lower than Sima Bei's wine glass, and touching it gently, "This is a gift that should be done in vain, even in another five hundred years." ”

"Borrow another 500 years from heaven?" Sima Bei glanced at Shen Yixia obliquely, and said indifferently, "You want to be the emperor!" ”

"How dare you ...... in vain" Shen Yixia's hand holding chopsticks paused in the air, "The Forbidden City has become a tourist attraction now, and I am still an emperor." ”

"Oh, really?" Sima Bei knocked on the edge of the hot pot with chopsticks and raised his wine glass, "Eat and drink, let's get drunk today." By the way, I've raised you for all these years, and I haven't drunk with you seriously, how much do you drink, if you pour a glass, then don't drink it, I can't carry you. ”

"My amount of wine is sometimes large and sometimes small, I have poured a glass, and I have not drunk a thousand glasses, it depends on who I follow." Shen Yixia respectfully picked up the wine glass, "With you, naturally a thousand glasses are not drunk." ”

"It's almost fine, and you won't get drunk with a thousand cups. Everything has to have a degree, just like this hot pot has the temperature of a hot pot, and the wine in this cup has the alcohol content of the wine. If you drink too much, you should get drunk," Sima Bei took a shallow sip, "It is said that they spit out the truth after drinking, how can we say what is in our hearts if we are not drunk." ”

"There's no need to get drunk," Shen Yixia gulped down, "Master, what do you want to hear, I can say it now." ”

"Don't be in a hurry, eat vegetables and eat vegetables," Sima Bei picked up a chopstick of mutton and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it twice, "I just poured down two plates of vegetables, one plate is mutton, and the other plate is also mutton, and now the heat is ......."

"Yes, yes......" Shen Yixia scooped up a few slices of mutton with a colander and poured them into his bowl, dipped a few spices, picked up a slice and put it in his mouth elegantly, chewed it slowly, wiped his mouth, and praised, "It tastes good, but it's a pity that the meat is a little old, and it takes a lot to bite." ”

"I deliberately cook it for a longer time, it tastes old when I'm old, at least it won't be diluted after eating." Sima Bei paused for a moment and glanced at the dipping dish in Shen Yixia's bowl, "I said, you didn't add coriander, of course it is hard to eat, you have to add a few spoonfuls of chopped coriander to eat hot pot, so that it won't be difficult to swallow." ”

"Oh, really? Why haven't I heard of it before, it can't be that you made it up, Master? ”

"When did I lie to you, coriander coriander, there is a fragrant word in the name, of course it tastes fragrant. The coriander here is a must, and to tell you the truth, I just ate this hot pot for this mouthful of coriander. ”

Shen Yixia added a few spoonfuls of coriander to the bowl, stirred it, and then picked up a piece of mutton with a few coriander leaves, swallowed it, his eyes widened a little rounder, and he smashed his mouth and said, "It's true!" It's really a life to be old and learn! ”

Sima Bei picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said heroically, "Drink and drink, don't patronize and eat vegetables, wine is the essence of grain, the more you drink, the younger you are!" ”

"Good, good!" Shen Yixia filled himself with another glass, simply raised his hand, raised his head, drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp, put down the cup, and looked at Sima Bei with a precarious position, "Master, I have also eaten this dish and drunk the wine, is it time to talk about my heart?" ”

"Hey, don't worry, I'll show you something first......" Sima Bei took out a black token from his pocket, threw it on the table with a clatter, and then picked up chopsticks and swept in the hot pot, and said casually, "Look!" ”

A complicated look flashed in Shen Yixia's eyes, and he carefully picked up the black iron token on the table, looked at it over and over, pretended to be ignorant, and pointed to the two crooked words on the token and asked, "Zhao Xue Ling?" ”

"Correct solution!" Sima Bei said triumphantly, "How about it, although your master and I, the president, are deputies, but if you want Zhao Xue Ling, you can get it as soon as you reach out, and it won't be difficult at all." ”

"This is the president's token," Sima Bei put Zhao Xue Ling back in place, "You have to take it, if you lose it, we can't afford to pay for it." ”

"No need to compensate," Sima Bei shrugged his nose, "This thing originally belonged to you, if I lost it, would you ask me for compensation?" No, who is with whom......"

"Mine?" Shen Yixia pretended to be surprised and pointed to his nose, "No, although we are the descendants of Zhengmiaohong, but the master gave the seat to Zhang Xiaoman, and now it is naturally someone else's." As for the next term, Zhang Xiaoman has two apprentices and a daughter, so it won't be my turn to count it. ”

"Hey, that's not what I said, the position of the president can be spread randomly, but this thing can't be sent when you see someone, and we are not sending couriers......" Sima Bei put down his chopsticks and picked up his wine glass, "Fundamentally speaking, this Zhaoxue Ling is your family's heirloom." ”

Shen Yixia's eyes lit up and he said in surprise, "Oh? Where does this begin? ”

"In the twelfth year of the Apocalypse," Sima Bei gently licked the wine and said with a distant gaze, "Your ancestor has repeatedly solved strange cases in the capital, and the Son of Heaven greatly appreciated it, and ordered someone to create four tokens of gold, silver, copper and iron to give to your ancestors, but your ancestors only accepted this black iron token. Later, a little eunuch sent an edict to let your ancestors go to the imperial study to receive a summons from the Son of Heaven. ”

After coughing a few dryly, Sima Bei continued, "As soon as your ancestor entered the imperial study, he was pressed on the kang by the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven stabbed your ancestor with a dagger, and asked with a dark face, I gave you the four orders of gold, silver, copper and iron, why did you only accept the iron order, do you look down on me?" ”

Shen Yixia picked at his head, stared at Sima Bei with great interest and asked, "What did my ancestor say?" ”

"The ancestor of your family stood up straight, and replied righteously, Your Majesty, Weichen does not look down on Your Majesty, but looks down on Weichen himself," Sima Bei pinched the wine glass with two fingers, rubbed it back and forth a few times, squinted his eyes and said, "The reason why Weichen is called Weichen is that what Weichen does is insignificant, and it is not worthy of His Majesty's gold, silver and bronze three orders, only the iron order can barely reach it." Moreover, as the so-called iron order is like a mountain, with this Zhaoxue iron order, there is no place in the world where Weichen cannot go, and Weichen can sweep away all the ghosts and ghosts in the world for His Majesty! That's enough! ”

"Well said! That's a great answer! Shen Yixia filled his wine glass with wine, drank it, and unconsciously touched Zhao Xue Ling with his right hand, closing his eyes, "Touching this Zhao Xue Ling, I can already feel the call from the bloodline in my body......"

"This is called blood is thicker than water, is it a grandson......" Sima Bei took the wine bottle from Shen Yixia's hand, shook it a few times, pursed his mouth, opened one eye, closed one eye to look at Shen Yixia, and asked quietly, "How about it, do you want it?" ”

"Master, you're joking," Shen Yixia put down Zhaoxue Ling like throwing a hot potato, "This is the president's token, how can I ask for it?" ”

"Yes," Sima Bei licked his greasy lips with his tongue, "It's great, I'll go back and take some money and throw it to Zhang Xiaoman, just think we bought it." ”

"Then I'll have to cheat you a lot of money," Shen Yixia shook his head a few times, "Don't, don't, now that the economy is in a recession, it's better to keep money in your pocket, it's not worth it for a token." ”

"You are stupid, this is an antique," Sima Bei squeezed his eyebrows and said, "We can buy it from Zhang Xiaoman at a low price, and then put it at the auction house to sell it at a high price, with a history of eight hundred years, it is worth a lot of money. ”

"This is a resale of cultural relics, and it is punishable by imprisonment, more than five years, less than ten years...... Even if we buy it from Zhang Xiaoman, most of them can only be handed over, in exchange for five hundred yuan and a big red flower......" Shen Yixia frowned, "Forget it, I still don't want it, don't say anything about losses, you have to be careful, it's not cost-effective." ”

"You don't have to turn it in, Zhao Xue Ling is different, it wasn't brought out of the tomb," Sima Bei deliberately lowered his volume, "It was picked up by your master's longbow when he was in the reeds, and later I found out that it was the treasure of your ancestors, and I have been searching for the descendants of the Shen family, and I am bent on returning things to their original owners...... So, this token is a family heirloom in your hand, and no one can care what to do with it. ”

"That's not necessarily, I also saw a news a while ago, the old mansions where people have lived for several generations have been occupied, and it is said that it is a non-cultural heritage......" Shen Yixia waved his hand, "Don't don't, I haven't gotten it, and I won't be heartbroken when I lose it." ”

"Really?"

"I really don't!"

"Really?"

"Don't do it!"

"Really?"

"I don't want to!"

"Okay, even if it's three in the shoes, it's enough this time...... I thought there was a self-motivated person in our vein," Sima Bei gently stroked the table with his right hand, and Zhao Xue Ling disappeared without a trace, "You don't know that you can make me happy before...... My master used to scold me for not having great ambitions, but then I raised you, and when I saw that you and I were about the same in virtue, I thought that in this life, I would only have the life of being a supporting role, and I was very disappointed. Today, as soon as I heard that you and Nie Yiqi were opponents, I was overjoyed, and immediately jumped off the wall of someone else's house, and rushed over at a gallop, thinking of helping you fight. ”

"Don't fight, don't fight!" Shen Yixia lowered his head and looked at his reflection in the wine glass, "You don't have to fight if it's your own, and you can't keep it if it's not your own." ”

"It's really angry with me!" Sima Bei raised his wine glass and saluted Shen Yixia, "Come, for your sentence, let's meet one more of them!" ”

Shen Yixia obediently picked up the wine glass and touched Sima Bei's wine glass, "Master, do you know why we two have a temper with each other?" That's because we are transparent in our hearts and open-minded! ”

"That's right," Sima Bei said with a big sip of wine and a ruddy face, "We don't have ourselves in our hearts." ”

"Only Kuang Fu Justice!" Shen Yixia drank the wine in the cup, quietly put the wine bottle in his hand, and responded loudly.

"Okay, good, raise soldiers for a thousand days, use it for a while," Sima Bei rubbed his red nose, "Now that you have come out, you have become a soldier crossing the river, I am very relieved." ”

"Could it be that you have raised me for so many years, just to use me as a soldier?" Shen Yixia sighed, "I thought we were father, father and son......"

"It's father and son!" Sima Bei rubbed his feet with his hands, sniffed them before he got them to his nose, and frowned slightly, "When your mother gave birth to you, I was on the edge of the bed, and the first person you saw when you opened your eyes was me, do you say we are father and son?" ”

The corners of Shen Yixia's eyes twitched a few times, took a deep breath, and said, "There is a saying that the nine sons of Longsheng are different, and they are father and son, so can I do some things I want to do and take some of the paths I want to take?" ”

"Why do you suddenly ask so bluntly?"

"Frank! The fortune teller in my mother's womb pointed to my mother's stomach and told me, in my life, the biggest problem is that I am too straight, speak too straight, do things too straight, and can't change it! You give a happy word, okay, okay or not! ”

Sima Bei let out a long breath and said indifferently, "Woo woo and tear!" You are a soldier crossing the river, of course, you can go wherever you want, but I, as a master, have to remind you that there are all roads in this world, but there is no turning back, especially the soldiers crossing the river. ”

"I didn't look back at the two words in my dictionary, those two words were pecked away by the pheasants in the mountains......" Shen Yixia clapped his hands, pointed and walked slowly into the private room, and said to the waiter with a large plate, "Master, I didn't come empty-handed today, you invited me to eat hot pot, I also have to express it," When the waiter put the plate on the table, Shen Yixia stood up, opened the lid, picked up a small mallet next to him, and slammed it on the yellow oval ball object on the plate, "The apprentice made a famous dish for you with his own hands, called Huaji!" ”
