Chapter 252: Detective
Beijing, Feiyun Tower.
At this time, it is already the early winter season, everything is bleak, the weather is cold, especially the capital is located in the north, the climate is much colder than the south of the Yangtze River, the cold wind blows, like a steel knife scraping the bones, people can't help but shiver.
However, this does not affect the prosperity of the capital.
In the streets and alleys, although it is not called a crowd of people, but people dressed in thick clothes and even draped in thick clothes can be seen everywhere going in and out of various shops and stalls.
Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it has been more than 100 years now, the world has been peaceful for a long time, especially in recent years, the first emperor collapsed, the new emperor has not been on the throne for a long time, has not yet been pro-government, although there are the emperor's uncle Iron Courage Shenhou and Dongchang Factory Gong Cao Zhengchun two people compete for power, but barely maintain a balance, and there is no exploitation of the people, it is to live and work in peace and contentment.
The first village in the world is located near Feiyun Tower.
This manor built by the iron gall god Hou to collect the world's strange people, I don't know how many people in the rivers and lakes with strange skills in it, and they are also very famous in the rivers and lakes, just like Sai Bian Que, who is known as the world's first miracle doctor, even Ping's finger was pressed by him, and like the world's first detective Zhang Jinjiu, there is nothing in this world that he can't investigate.
"Master, where are we going?" Zhang Jin, who was full of wine and had a misty look in his eyes, asked drunkly.
Everyone knows that this world's No. 1 detective likes to drink the most, and he is in such a state of drunkenness and dreams every day, but he has reconnaissance abilities that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve.
Shangguan Haitang is wearing a white shirt and holding a folding fan, and his demeanor is outstanding, but such a thin dress is also unusually dazzling on the street, but anyone who has some insight knows that this person must be a master of the rivers and lakes.
"Aren't you the best at reasoning and guessing, people in the rivers and lakes beg to ask you all kinds of questions on weekdays, why did you ask me today?"
Shangguan Haitang looked at Feiyun Tower, which had already appeared in front of him, and said, "The world's number one detective, tell me, why are we here?" ”
"Owner, you ......"
Zhang Jinjiu shook his head and smiled, a little wry smile crossed his face, the so-called being burdened by fame was him.
In the world, I don't know how many people want to find him to do things, or to find enemies, or to find miracle cheats, all kinds of things, and so on, he is tired of this kind of day, so he worships in the first village in the world, thinking of borrowing the protection of the iron gall god marquis, and living a peaceful birthday in a few days.
didn't think about it, and now the owner still wants him to think about it......
"I think, when you go to Feiyun Tower, you must not be drinking, although the owner of the village also specially brought two pots of good wine."
Zhang Jinjiu thought about it carefully, but he smiled and said: "The owner of the village, you must have come to see someone, and as the owner of the village, you also specially brought the wine to visit, this person must be a very valuable guest." In the martial arts of the world, even the top master may not make you condescend to the owner, and you will definitely not be the person of the Dragon Guardian Villa, want to come ......"
The smile on his lips was even thicker, and his face was full of a look of control over everything.
After a pause, he said: "I heard that the owner of the village inherited the son of Traceless, and he is also a good friend of the 130 million officials, and he also has a little friendship with the sword demon Mo Li, who is now in the limelight, I think it must be one of the three of them." ”
As they spoke, the two of them had already walked in front of Feiyun Tower, a five-story restaurant that covers a huge area.
This is one of the largest restaurants in the capital, I don't know how many famous heroes, literati and, once stopped here, drank and wrote poems, and fought martial arts duels.
Although it is not a meal, there are already many customers sitting inside, or drinking, or chatting, and business is very prosperous.
Shangguan Haitang stopped in front of the door, patted the back of his hand lightly with the folding fan in his hand, and said with a smile: "What, the number one detective in the world, you still have to choose three people to come out, let me guess?" However, the three of you are very qualified, and everyone is qualified to bring me to bring wine and meet me in person. ”
Zhang Jinjiu's eyes lit up slightly, and said, "Since it is indeed the three of them, then I am sure!" ”
He analyzed proudly: "The number of 30 million officials also appeared in Jiangnan a few days ago, and it is said that it is to solve the problem of fake silver tickets in Qianzhuang, and they will not be idle in Beijing for a while and a half; And Lingshi has lived in seclusion for many years, no one has seen his true face, wherever he goes, there will inevitably be four beautiful girls carrying a sedan chair for him, so I won't know, so it's not him! ”
"Then there is only one sword demon Mo Li left, coincidentally, two days ago, someone once saw a young swordsman in a green shirt hanging a sword coming towards Jingshi, and he looked very much like him, so, what you want to see, it must be this sword demon Mo Li, right?!"
The last sentence, although it is a rhetorical question, is clear in the tone!
Shangguan Haitang shook his head and smiled, and said, "I know that it is difficult to hide everything from you Zhang Jinjiu, but right, you will understand it soon after you come in with me?" ”
She walked into the store, followed by Zhang Jinjiu.
Facing this contemporary grandmaster who has become famous all over the world within a few months, and is known as the number one swordsman in the world, he is really curious.
Even the undefeated East was defeated in the hands of this person, and in the whole world, how many people can compete with it?
After climbing four floors in a row, the two of them stopped in front of a private room called cinnabar.
Shangguan Haitang didn't knock on the door, and directly pushed open the door, but saw a man in a green shirt sitting by the window, leaning lazily on a chair, the sunlight shining through the window, and a large area of it was sprinkled on him, gilding him with a layer of golden light.
"Mo Shaoxia, it's been a long time!"
Shangguan Haitang arched his hand and said: "The outside world is in a uproar because of your defeat of Dongfang Undefeated, I don't know how many people are praising you, talking about you, looking for you, who knows that Mo Shaoxia is hiding here in the sun at the moment and is lazy?" ”
This man in green shirt is Mo Li.
Since defeating the little old man, he has separated from Lu Xiaofeng and others and rushed to Beijing.
After one battle after another, he was also a little irritable in his heart, he didn't rush to hurry, he traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers, practiced martial arts, and spent more than a full month to arrive in Beijing.
Coincidentally, the journey turned out to be a rare smoothness, and no one came to look for his trouble, and no one disturbed his practice.
He said leisurely: "They are looking for me, what do they have to do with me, is it possible that I really want to take them as apprentices and avenge them?" ”
Most of those who want to find Mo Li have these purposes, just like Shangguan Feiyan and Ren Yingying......
It's a pity that these women's hearts are much more vicious than ordinary people in the rivers and lakes, and they will change their threats if they can't succeed in soft words, so the end is not wonderful one by one.
"However, I never begged Shaoxia to accept me as an apprentice, nor did I ask for anything else, as soon as Mo Shaoxia entered the Beijing Division, how did he think of looking for me?" Shangguan Haitang joked with a smile.
"That's naturally a request for begonias." Mo Li chuckled.
He has a good impression of the owner of the world's first village, and he really needs the help of the other party when he enters the capital this trip.
"Beg me, I'm afraid I'll beg him."
Shangguan Haitang raised his hand and pointed at Zhang Jinjiu on the side and said, "This is Zhang Jinjiu, the world's first detective you named to see, Brother Zhang, haven't you seen Mo Shaoxia yet?" ”
Only then did Zhang Jinjiu dare to let go of his courage and look at the young man carefully.
He was dressed in a green shirt, his appearance was handsome, his eyebrows and eyes were delicate, and his whole body was full of vigor and heroism, he was indeed too young, and he looked at that face, at most he was only seventeen or eighteen years old.
There is a hint of a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, his temperament is as warm as jade, but under the smile there is a strong confidence in controlling everything, which is the confidence brought to him by hearty victories.
Zhang Jinjiu has seen some of this kind of aura, just like the world's richest ten thousand thousand, and like the iron gallant god who sits in the Dragon Guardian Villa, all of them are dragons and phoenixes among people!
"The villain has seen Mo Shaoxia." Zhang Jinjiu said very respectfully.
He is the number one detective in the world, and he knows so many secrets, but he can live peacefully until now, and he has his own way of self-preservation.
Who can be offended and who can't be offended, he has a clear door in his heart.
The young man in front of him is undoubtedly a person who cannot be offended, although he looks at his eyebrows and smiles, but the name of the sword demon is enough to explain everything.
His enemies were basically dead, and they were basically all beheaded with a sword.
Ruthless and murderous, it is this evil star that is described.
Therefore, Zhang Jinjiu didn't have half of his arrogant posture, and even the alcohol on his body woke up for three points.
Mo Li was also looking at the world's number one detective.
There is a lot of news in this world, which is extremely secret, and it is difficult for even a powerful intelligence system to know, but as long as this Zhang Jinjiu is invited, there is no secret that he can't find out.
The name of the world's number one detective is by no means in vain.
It was a man of medium stature, with a plain face, two handfuls of beard, and the most striking thing was the red wine trough nose, and there was a burst of wine smell coming from his body.
Whoever sees him will only think that he is a drunkard, and will not associate him with the world's number one detective, and no one will take a drunkard to heart.
"Mr. Zhang, you're welcome, please take a seat."
Mo Li raised his hand.
Shangguan Haitang and Zhang Jinjiu sat down separately, and Shangguan Haitang said: "Mo Shaoxia, these two bottles are imperial brews of the palace, a little careful." ”
Zhang Jinjiu put the two bottles of wine he was carrying on the table.
Mo Li looked at the two bottles of wine, a little puzzled.
"You don't know, I don't drink much?" Mo Li asked.
The number of times he drank could be counted with a slap, and he was drunk only once.
Wine is certainly a good thing, but for Mo Li, his own injuries have not healed, and his brain has been broken in search of the elixir, where is there still leisure to drink and get drunk?
"Of course I know, but if this wine is not given to you, what do you have to ask Zhang Jinjiu to do things for you?" Shangguan Haitang said with a smile.
Everyone in the world knows that Zhang Jinjiu, the world's first detective, does not love money and is not lustful, but only likes the things in this cup.
"Begonia has a heart, but I have been prepared."
Mo Li pulled the rope on the side, and when there was movement outside, a junior pushed the door in and put down two bottles of wine.
"Feiyun Building's drunken immortal brew, although I don't drink much, I've heard of its reputation, and these two bottles are the old wine that the owner has been cellaring twenty years ago, I wonder if it can enter Mr. Zhang's eyes?" Mo Li said with a smile.
Twenty years of drunken immortal wine?!
Zhang Jinjiu's eyes straightened all of a sudden, he stood up, raised his hand to pick up the wine jug, opened the bottle cap, sniffed hard, only to feel the aroma of wine coming to his face, sweet and fragrant, deep into his heart, his eyes lit up at the moment, and he said happily: "If it is really twenty years of drunken immortal wine, I can't imagine that Zhang has such a blessing in this life!" ”
Apparently, he was happy with the wine.
"As far as I know, the Drunken Immortal Brewing is a famous Jingshi, and the cellars of more than ten years have long been sold out, where did you find these twenty years of aging?" Shangguan Haitang asked a little puzzled.
There are few fine wines in this world, but there are many high rollers who like wine, not to mention how many wealthy nobles are among the Beijing masters.
"Talk to the boss, he thinks I am honest, so he is willing to give me two bottles." Mo Li smiled faintly.
With his martial arts, he used methods such as the Soul Shifting Dafa, and the shopkeeper even gave out a few concubines he raised, not to mention two bottles of wine.
It's just that when he does these things, he will inevitably lose his identity when he spreads it, and he refuses to talk to Haitang in detail.
Seeing that he was pretending to be mysterious, Haitang didn't ask much, just sighed and said: "Since I have these twenty years of drunken immortal wine, I guess I don't have to take out these two bottles of imperial wine that have been hidden for a hundred years." ”
As she spoke, she gestured and tried to put away the wine on the table.
"Centennial Imperial Sake!"
Zhang Jin screamed and pounced on the table.
He never expected that the two pots of imperial wine that Shangguan Haitang asked him to carry turned out to be a century-old wine!
Although the drunken immortal wine is good, the hundred-year-old imperial wine is even rarer.
With his drunkard nature, he naturally died when he saw it.
"Look, you can't get these two bottles back."
Mo Li smiled: "Then stay and I owe you a favor." ”
Shangguan Haitang's eyes suddenly lit up.
This is a favor of the dignified sword demon, you must know that today, his people are almost likely to fight against their father-in-law!
That's not what two bottles of 100-year-old can buy.
Zhang Jinjiu held four bottles of wine in his arms, happy like a child, where he giggled.
He said: "Mo Shaoxia, with these four bottles of wine, I dare to break through the sea of swords and fire, not to mention your face, I don't know what you have to do with me, although the arrangement is it." ”
"Okay, Mr. Zhang is quick to talk."
Mo Li nodded, this was what he was waiting for.
"I know that thirty years ago, Tianxiang, a small country in the Western Regions, once gave a gift to Da Ming Jin."
"Tenka cardamom?!"
Shangguan Haitang blurted out.
Mo Li glanced at her, nodded again, and said: "It's Tianxiang Cardamom, there were only three at that time, it is said that these three are enough to live the dead, flesh and bones, but unfortunately, no one seems to know the whereabouts of these three elixirs." ”
"So Mo Shaoxia, are you interested in these three Tianxiang cardamom?" Zhang Jinjiu frowned.
"Naturally, Begonia should know, I have been looking for a thousand-year-old elixir, and the miracle of this day's fragrant cardamom is not inferior to the thousand-year-old elixir, I naturally want to find them." Mo Li said.
"This ......"
Zhang Jinjiu sighed and said, "I'm afraid it's a little troublesome......"
