"In the hundred years of fishing in the deep pool, I have never seen a real dragon, pitiful. ”

A thin, white-haired old man sat in front of a deep pool, holding a pitch-black fishing rod in his hand.

The surrounding mountains and forests are towering and dense, and layers of rocks rise on the top of the mountain, and birds of different sizes pass by from time to time, and a melodious song is heard.

The thin old man seemed to feel bored, turned his head to look at the old man squatting beside him, and grinned, "Old Qu, what do you think of the poem I wrote just now?"

"It's uneven, it's untouched. ”

The person squatting on the side of the deep pool was Lao Qu, the servant who had accompanied Chen Tianze for decades, and he was still dressed in coarse linen clothes, staring at the undisturbed deep pool with a blank expression.

"You old stubborn, you don't like to listen to your words, this poem is something that you have thought about for a long time, you don't even know the goods! Old stubborn, old idiot!" The white-haired old man threw down the fishing rod and jumped to his feet and scolded.

Lao Qu's expression was still unfazed, he just stared at the pool, and said in a stunned voice: "If you are old, you are much older than me." ”

"Bullshit!" the white-haired old man was even more angry, and when he stepped on the ground, the rocks under his feet cracked inch by inch, and even the unwavering water surface shook suddenly, like a monstrous wave, and the entire mountain began to tremble slightly.

The birds and beasts in the mountains and forests let out a terrified roar and fled in all directions.

"Lao Tzu is a god in the eyes of the world, you are so disrespectful, Lao Tzu is unwilling to help you!"

The thin old man scolded, and his eyes stared at Lao Qu viciously.

"Oh. Lao Qu finally made a move, but he just turned around, turned his back to the old man with an angry face, and said in a calm tone: "Immortal, old immortal." ”

The word 'old' was very clear, for fear that the old man would not hear it.

"I'm,. The old man sat down scoldingly, picked up the fishing rod casually, and said indignantly: "So ignorant of current affairs, hum, what's so good about the stinky boy of the Chen family, let you, the old man, serve for ten years, and now you are cheeky to beg me?"

"Why is the Chen family bad?" Lao Qu's eyes wandered.

"Then you give me that tiger tooth. The old man's eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled shyly: "If it is given to me, I can think about it." ”

Lao Qu, who had his back to the old man, was silent for a long time, and finally when the old man couldn't bear it, he whispered: "Okay!"

"Huh, why did you turn sex, old man?" the old man looked surprised, and wondered, "Don't you think that thing is a treasure?

Lao Qu raised his head, looked into the distance with his eyes wandering, and said softly: "I can't wait, the young master has been waiting for ten years, and if he waits any longer, he is afraid that he will forget about it." The tiger tooth was given to me by the young master, and even my life was given to me by the Chen family, so why not give it away?"

This time it was the old man's turn to be silent.

After a long time, the thin old man spoke: "For the sake of the Chen family, you don't even want your life?"

Lao Qu nodded, but did not make a sound.

The old man looked at the deep pool and hesitated for a long time before he casually threw the fishing rod on the ground, stood up, and said, "I'm really getting more and more curious about that stinky boy." ”

Lao Qu turned his head and looked surprised!

――

After sending Wang Chuxue to the mouth of the alley, Chen Tianze turned around with a smile and walked straight towards Zuixuan Pavilion.

Of course, Chen Tianze didn't forget to explain that he had some personal matters to deal with in the past few days, so he was not in Bingzhou.

Wang Yatou was obviously in a much better mood because of the previous hug, so she didn't ask Chen Tianze's whereabouts again very much, but just warned Chen Tianze with righteous words that he must remember to say hello next time he leaves.

Chen Tianze naturally agreed with a smile, so dare not to obey.

Before leaving, Wang Yatou still asked with a shy smile if she wanted to hug again, but Chen Tianze decisively refused, after all, he is also an upright person, how can he take advantage of others casually? As for others to take advantage of themselves?

Being tossed by Wang Yatou like this, it was already evening when Chen Tianze returned to Zuixuan Pavilion, and after opening the door of the store, he simply cooked a meal for himself.

After eating, Chen Tianze was lying on the bed, still holding the small stone he picked up on the street in his hand, his eyes wandering.

"One or two pieces of bluestone, three or four branches of white lotus. Send Dongluo to go, and the heart and things go with you. ”

This is one of the most popular poems in Bingzhou City decades ago, from the Chen family of Bingzhou, a huge family with a famous reputation in the empire.

At that time, when the young young master of the Chen family saw his father going on a long trip, he cried so much that he refused to let go.

No matter how the family appeased, they couldn't persuade the stubborn young master, and in the end, it was the young master's aunt, a girl who had no blood with the Chen family, hugged the young master of the Chen family, picked up a stone casually, and handed it to the young master.

Unexpectedly, the young master actually stopped crying, holding the stone and laughing.

In the end, the young master gave the stone to his father, who was about to leave. Then my father was hit by a stray arrow in a fierce battle with the barbarian tribes in the north, and fell off his horse, but fortunately, the stone that was put in the chest by the Chen family actually blocked the stray arrow and saved the life of Lord Chen.

Since then, that bluestone has become famous in one fell swoop.

There are also people who specially write poems for this inconspicuous stone, and the limelight is fully displayed.

It's just that with the decline of the Chen family, those popular poems of that year were gradually forgotten and disappeared in the long river of history.

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen, are you there?"

There was a knock on the door.

Chen Tianze was stunned for a moment, hurriedly put away the bluestone, and ran downstairs to open the door.

Standing at the door was Huo Yi, who had seen him during the day today.

Seeing that Chen Tianze hadn't fallen asleep yet, Huo Yi said with a smile: "Brother Chen, you haven't slept yet, it's still early, take you to have fun?"

Chen Tianze was stunned for a moment, and when he saw that Huo Yi's eyes were a little obscene, he knew in his heart, and said with a smile: "I don't have any money, and I haven't made any money since the store opened." ”

"It's okay, someone has a treat, let's go, take you to meet a few brothers. Huo Yi didn't say a word, and pulled Chen Tianze out.

In desperation, Chen Tianze went out with Huo Yi.

Along the way, Huo Yi told him some obscure things, probably because the adjudicator's income was not high, and for any adjudicator, he could die at any time, so he had to hurry up and enjoy himself.

Of course, there will be people who will be willing to pay for the pleasure.

In the city of Bingzhou, there are not a few powerful people who are arguing with the judges, even if it is a low-level six-rank adjudicator, he can also get a lot of courtesy from the magnates.

As for this courtesy, the content is self-evident.

Chen Tianze, who looked modest along the way, was full of doubts, didn't he say that the adjudicators were all secretive? How could he be involved with the children of rich families?

Faced with this kind of question, Huo Yi only vaguely told him that it was all some dispensable pretenses, and it was okay to scare and scare the common people, but it should not be true.

Chen Tianze was full of helplessness.

Huo Yi took Chen Tianze for a long distance before stopping in front of a brightly lit restaurant, Chen Tianze looked up at this behemoth with five or six floors, and looked surprised.

"This is the famous Xian Hunting Mansion in Bingzhou, how about it, domineering, right?" Huo Yi stopped at the door, obviously wanting to give Chen Tianze some time to surprise him, and then said with a smile: "This is not something that ordinary people can come, the entrance fee alone will cost hundreds of taels of silver, of course, the content inside is definitely worth the price." ”

Chen Tianze secretly said, one hundred taels of silver? The income of his own small restaurant is not enough for one hundred taels a month, right?

"Let's go, Brother Chen, someone is waiting for us inside. Huo Yi smiled mysteriously.

Chen Tianze glanced around, most of them were rich families dressed in extremely luxurious clothes, and even the girls who greeted guests at the door were all very smart, and the clothes on their bodies were scorching under the lights.

Damn it, this is really a gold hole.

After following Huo Yi into the restaurant, as far as the eye could see, the huge hall was actually full, and under the leadership of a bewitching woman, Chen Tianze and Huo Yi went straight to the second floor.

Along the way, Chen Tianze's eyes looked around from time to time, like a dirt bun.

The person in charge of leading the way is a young and beautiful girl, wearing a decent cheongsam to outline the delicate curves of the figure, the convex place is polite at all, and the thin place is absolutely surprising.

Seeing Chen Tianze like this, the girl who led the way was obviously a little disdainful, and her eyes glanced at him coldly several times.

Huo Yi, who noticed this scene, was a little embarrassed, but he could only remain silent, this is someone else's territory, who dares to make a mistake?

"It's here!"

A closed door was opened, and the young woman who led the way stood at the door, glaring fiercely at Chen Tianze, who had obscene eyes, and her tone was cold.

In the room, several young sons and brothers stopped what they were doing, and looked at the girl who led the way with strange eyes, and Huo Yi and Chen Tianze, who were standing at the door in embarrassment.

Obviously, everyone could see that this young adjudicator brought by Huo Yi had angered the girl who led the way, but no one seemed to have any intention of helping, and looked like she was waiting to see a good show.

"Girl, how much does it cost to pack the night?" At this moment, Chen Tianze suddenly spoke, staring at the young girl's full chest with a pair of eyes, as obscene as he wanted.

The woman was obviously a little annoyed, and her expression was cold, but no one expected that this old-fashioned guy was shocking and said: "Is it okay to have one or two silver a night?" Oh, the girl is in good shape, this skin, tsk, okay, since this is the case, the uncle will squander it, two taels of silver a night, how about it, it's interesting enough, right? This price must be worth it!"

In the room, a large group of boys and buddies were stunned, and even Huo Yi was shocked with a face that could not be concealed.

After the woman was shocked, she blushed her cheeks, suddenly covered her face, cried out loudly, and trotted away.

As a party, Chen Tianze walked into the house with a big grin, spat in that direction, and scolded: "When biaozi still wants to build an archway, fuck, two taels of silver are high, what kind of goods!"

As soon as these words came out, the boys who were waiting to see the joke looked at each other and couldn't hide their shock.
