Chapter XXVII

The pipa strings moved, and the mellow strings of Qingyue echoed in the room like jade beads.

Tankou opened lightly, and a song and song fit the melody of the pipa and entered Li Yi's ears.

"The clouds are clever, the flying stars spread hatred, and the silver man is dark~"

Inside the bathtub, Li Yi was stunned for a moment.

He didn't expect that the Queqiao Immortal would spread so quickly, and in a short period of time, it had been arranged into a song and sung in Goolian.

The point is that the singing is not bad.

Li Yi slowed down, closed his eyes, and began to enjoy this moment of leisure.

Listening to a song and watching a dance piece in between cultivation was one of the few times he had time to relax.

After that, I still have to work hard and work hard to pay off my debts.

……

Time passed slowly, and after the three pipa lanes, Li Yi, who noticed something strange in his body, looked into the water.

At this time, the red potion in the bucket had detached from the clear water and was tightly adsorbed to the surface of his skin.

Wang He once told him that when the skin is red and starts to itch, it is when the power of the medicine begins to attack.

At that time, the skin lining of the body will itch unbearably, and then a burning sensation will occur.

When the burning sensation subsides, and the red liquid on the skin is dispersed in the water again, it means that the medicine has been successfully quenched. If the liquid condenses but does not disperse, it means that the quenching has failed.

Li Yi's heartstrings were tight, in his eyes, this skin training was not only about his martial arts practice, but also about whether he would continue to be cheeky and borrow money tomorrow.

At this time, the burning sensation on Li Yi's body became more and more intense, and the surface of his skin seemed to be coated with a layer of chili oil, and he could even feel the skin membrane beating like a pulse.

His face was as red as blood, his fists were clenched, Li Yi gritted his teeth and stared at the water without saying a word.

After the tea time, a slimy dark red liquid began to detach from the surface of the body.

At this time, he was like a pen in the pen wash, and the slime attached to his body spread like ink, and in just a few breaths, the water in the bath bucket was stained dark red.

Raise your arms and look as good as new.

Suddenly stood up and hung up.

Li Yi felt the transparent feeling coming from the skin membrane, and couldn't help grinning.

Who said he was poorly qualified?

It's really eye-catching, but I don't know gold and jade.

After getting out of the bathtub and putting on dirty pants, Li Yi looked out of the curtain and said, "Can the girl come in and do me a small favor?" ”

The singer hesitated for a moment, then put down the lute and got up and walked to the curtain.

Serving guests is her job, not to mention that today's guest is still a handsome man, as long as the other party does not make too harsh requirements, she is still happy to serve the other party.

Lifting the curtain, the singer fell on Li Yi's slender body at first glance.

At first glance, it was obscene pants.

Li Yi coughed lightly and handed over the mixed ointment in his hand.

"It's an ointment, and I asked the girl to help me apply it to my body."

Lying on the edge of the bathtub, Li Yi narrowed his eyes in disgust.

I don't know if those men in Chiyuntang were so comfortable when they first applied the medicine.

Feeling the gentle touch coming from behind, Li Yi had to admit that Goolan was indeed a very suitable place for cultivation.

It's just that this method of applying medicine is very unusual.

Waiting for the ointment to be evenly applied, Li Yi suddenly remembered something.

After the ointment is applied, it must be left for more than three hours, during which time he must not exercise vigorously, otherwise the ointment will fall off.

So how is he going to play tonight?

Looking at the incense sticking in the smoker, Li Yi's eyes flickered.

"Girl, is there a carriage to rent in Tinglan Courtyard?" Li Yi, who really didn't want to be absent from work, put his last hope on the singer.

Approaching Hai, on Liuding Street.

A horse-drawn carriage drove slowly down the street, the sound of the hub turning was unusually clear in the silence of the night.

Next to the carriage, a man with a lantern was talking.

"Since you're sick, you're giving birth at home, and you'll leave the matter to me, so why do you have to make this trip?"

There was a faint smell of medicine wafting out of the carriage, and Sun Cheng looked sideways at the carriage, revealing a little concern in his tone.

"It's okay, it's just a few small problems, and it can't blow the wind." The man in the car paused, and continued: "Besides, the gong is here with me, so I can't just let you knock on the gong, right?" ”

At the wheel of the car, the groom who was driving the car drove silently, and did not expose the fact that the other party had just come out of the Qinglou.

"The hour has come." Sun Cheng glanced at Shi Xiang and said to the carriage.

As soon as Sun Cheng's words fell, a pair of arms carrying gongs and mallets were pulled out of the car window.

The sound of the gong sounded, announcing that the second watch had arrived.

On the fifth watch, Li Yi asked the groom to drive the carriage back to Tinglan Courtyard.

"The money for the car is recorded in the account, and it will be settled together with the accommodation fee."

The carriage is owned by the Tinglan Academy, and the horseman is also a handyman in the Tinglan Academy, so it is okay to settle the bill together.

Back upstairs, Li Yi took off the thin quilt he was wearing, and the ointment on his body had scabbed over at this time.

After asking the little servant to change the hot water and cleaning his body, he went downstairs to meet Wang Jianchun and the others.

"Where's the chief?" When he came to the front hall, Li Yi only saw Lu Ping and Zhao Hong, but did not see the shadow of Wang Jianchun.

Lupin smiled, "The checkout went." ”

Not long after, Wang Jianchun, who had finished settling the accounts, returned to the front hall.

Looking at Li Yi, Wang Jianchun scolded with a smile: "You kid had a lot of fun last night, and you even rented a carriage to go outside to be chic!" ”

Seeing Lu Ping looking at him playfully, Li Yi said with a straight face: "Don't get me wrong, I just went out for a walk in the carriage last night, and I definitely didn't do that kind of thing, I'm a serious person!" ”

As soon as Li Yi's words fell, Lu Ping showed an expression that I understood.

“……”

Ignoring Lu Ping's gaze, Li Yi looked at Wang Jianchun: "Boss, today is the first day of the new year, are we going to the official's room to record and write errands?" ”

Wang Jianchun nodded when he heard this: "Don't worry, you have solved a lot of cases in the past few days, and you have written some of them." ”

The beginning of the month is not only the time when the officials record and write errands, but also the time when the various offices of the yamen summarize all the things and pay salaries.

In addition, if you make meritorious achievements during the period, you will also get an additional reward from the household.

When I came to the yamen, I changed into my errand clothes.

At the time of the o'clock, the atmosphere in the yamen was obviously much happier than before.

However, there are also people who don't feel much about it.

For example, Li Yi.

Not to mention the monthly salary, even the annual salary, it is not enough to pay off his debts, as long as he thinks of those debts, he can't be happy.

The other one who didn't feel it was Wang Jianchun.

Wang Jianchun did the head hunt completely because he liked this business, if you talk about salary...... His annual salary is not as much as his father's salary for an apprentice!

After the order, everyone followed the master to the officer's room in charge of attendance in the office, and the clerk's room had been waiting for a long time.

After the book, a scribe began to take notes.

"Wang Jianchun, the head catcher, arrested Zou Tiesheng, a criminal in Changning County, on September 2; On September 28, the bandit Cai Tielong was exterminated; On September 23, Qiu Laosan, a troublemaker on Changdeng Street, was punished; September 25......"

"Kuaishou Lu Ping, on September 2, assisted Wang Jianchun, the head catcher, to capture Zou Tiesheng, a criminal in Changning County; September 12......"

"Kuaishou Lin Sheng......"

In several consecutive bad notes, except for Wang Jianchun, the performance of the headcatcher is outstanding, and the performance of the rest of the people is relatively ordinary.

"Kuaishou Li Yi, on September 27, assisted Fu Yin Su Wenshan to crack the case of Xu Ji Yinpu's lost silver. On the same day, Lai Er, a troublemaker on Beimen Street, was punished; On September 28, a dispute over the sale and purchase of South Gate Street was settled. On the same day, Qiu Laosan, the troublemaker on Nanmen Street, was punished..."It was recorded here, and the bookstore on the side took a pen and wrote down Qiu Laosan's name separately.

So far, this person has been recorded in no less than three arrests, and such a person who has repeatedly taught him should be taken to prison for punishment.

On the same 28th, he cooperated with Kuaishou Lupin to crack the case of the shopkeeper of the pastry shop for begging for silver; On September 29, he cooperated with Tieyin Xie Chan, Kuaishou Lu Ping, and Zhao Hong to crack the theft of treasure clothes from Yunxiang Pavilion. ”

At this time, everyone's eyes in the room fell on the figure in front of the bookcase.

For this new recruit who has made amazing achievements in three days, there are those who are surprised, those who praise, and those who are suspicious and envious.

"Not bad!" The secretary in charge of the official's room couldn't help but praise, and the master who calculated the prize next to him also nodded in approval.

It's rare to see a quick catch like this.
