Chapter 17 Jade Mantang
Zhao Erhe sat on the main seat, with Li Kunhai and his four sons sitting beside him, and facing Zhao Erhe was Qin Yuelou, where the guest seat was located, and Shanjun.
Plates of dishes were brought to the table by the maids, and these maids were all dressed very coolly, with elegant postures, young and beautiful faces, and their bodies were fat and thin, and their bodies were a little different.
In this way, it has become a beautiful landscape full of potential desires, and it has become a big sideline.
As for these peculiar places, Qin Yuelou could see at a glance that these maidservants were not humans, but shapeshifting banshees, some of the cat's ears did not retreat, some of the arms were similar to wings, some of them showed their tails, and some of them retained their claws...
Although they are not human, these people are really good-looking.
If Qin Yuelou is to describe it, this is the hazy beauty of holding the pipa and half-covering his face,
Sometimes, wearing it stimulates people's senses more than not wearing it,
It's just that Qin Yuelou doesn't squint, even if there is a shapeshifting goblin lying in front of everyone at the table, and all kinds of dishes cover the shapeshifting banshee's body.
The shape-shifting banshees and maidservants of the fat swallows presented the dishes like an assembly line, and then sat beside everyone very consciously, waiting for the head of the house to speak, and then serving.
Qin Yuelou was holding a sword in one hand, crossing Erlang's legs, holding a gourd in his left hand, and drinking wine without a match, neither the Zhao family nor Li Kunhai spoke.
He wanted to see what kind of tricks the Zhao family wanted to play, but Zhao Mengye was quite angry, but he didn't dare to show it, he only dared to poke and poke the flesh on Qin Yuelou's body with his eyes.
Shanjun had sad eyes and lowered his head, unable to bear to look at the banshees on the table who were not covered with only a few pieces of food, nor could he bear to look at the shapeshifting banshees who sat beside him like marionettes.
Zhao Erhe kept his eyes closed and recuperated, and after a while, this Zhao Erhe opened his eyes and saw Qin Yuelou.
"Come to think of it, you're the profound swordsman, aren't you?" This Zhao Erhe looked at Qin Yuelou.
Qin Yuelou also looked at Zhao Erhe, very old, like a shriveled old cucumber, the skin and flesh on his face are also wrinkled, and the thin cheeks appear to have protruding cheekbones and the skin and flesh are restrained and contracted, probably because of old age, the eyelids are drooping, making people unable to see their eyes.
"I don't dare to be a profound cultivator, so it's just average, but thanks to the care of my brothers in the family, I can have a good future." Qin Yuelou said with his sword in his hand, leaning forward slightly.
But he still kept a certain distance from the shapeshifter in front of him, this shapeshifter should have been transformed into a lynx, with short hair and long ears, hands and feet that had not yet been fully transformed, or slightly larger lynx claws, she was motionless, and her eyes were extremely empty.
"It's just that I really didn't expect that this monster, which outsiders don't know about, could find so many in this big manor, and they all obey their words and are willing to serve as a plate."
"How would they know? After all, it's just a bunch of powerless and powerless people." Zhao Erhe said it politely.
"Actually, you're just treating them like, aren't you?" Qin Yuelou poured himself another sip of wine.
"They're my God of Wealth, how can they be fart?" Zhao Erhe spoke, but no one dared to interject.
"Then the status of this God of Wealth is really low." Qin Yuelou shook her head and muttered in a low voice.
Then I didn't want to pretend, but I still said very tactfully: "Actually, I understand what kind of urine you usually are, so I came here this time to find some work for everyone, so as to accumulate some virtue for you."
"Oh? Then I don't know what you think?" Zhao Erhe ignored the derogatory meaning in Qin Yuelou's words, but seemed to be a little interested in "accumulating virtue", so he asked about Qin Yuelou.
"Of course, slay demons." Qin Yuelou took out the little yellow book from his arms.
Zhao Erhe also looked at it calmly, this Qin Yuelou pretended to turn through the portraits of the monsters he had eliminated before, page by page, and then turned to his goal this time.
Zhao Erhe looked at the huge sturgeon on the small yellow book in Qin Yuelou, brushed his beard, and sandwiched a chopstick fish
, as if to hide something.
"It seems that the head of the Zhao family recognizes this sturgeon demon?" Qin Yuelou asked.
"Recognition is recognition, that was eighty years ago, when I was eighteen."
"It's eighteen, too?" Qin Yuelou interjected and asked, interrupting Zhao Erhe's words.
"No, I don't know how old the sturgeon is, but the sturgeon was longer than the boat I was on when I went out to sea, and it was like in the painting, it surrounded the boat, just..." Zhao Erhe didn't say everything.
"Just what?" Qin Yuelou asked Zhao Erhe.
"It's just that this sturgeon didn't destroy our ship, nor did it fall into its belly and become its food, but that was only at that time, but now, as soon as you talk about this sturgeon, I think of many ships going to sea in inexplicable distress, and I can't say if it has something to do with this sturgeon."
"It's kind of interesting, maybe it was full." Qin Yuelou put away the little yellow book, "It's just that in this North Sea, if there is such a big sturgeon, I think this sturgeon will also be regarded as this Dragon King of the North Sea."
"The Dragon King of the North Sea, it's not this sturgeon, if it's the Dragon King of the North Sea, it's a truly powerful god, it's a sea god who is far more powerful than Ma Ge Niang."
Qin Yuelou became alert: "Dagon Fish God? The dragon god of the South Sea?"
"Not really, the name of the god is not straightforward, but this god may be more powerful than the god you say." Zhao Erhe said.
Qin Yuelou also listened to Zhao Erhe's heart with six ears, but Zhao Erhe was just thinking about how to win himself over in his heart, and several other people obviously knew about it, but they didn't think about it at the moment, so Qin Yuelou also gave up.
"In that case, then it's easy to say, my purpose is to kill this sturgeon demon, if the two of you are willing to contribute, wouldn't it be a good idea for us to work together to destroy the demon?" Qin Yuelou glanced at the people on the table, and then carried the little yellow book back into the warehouse.
"Young man, you don't know, godfather, he hates this monster so much." Li Kunhai looked at Zhao Erhe's face and said, seeing that Zhao Erhe didn't have a bad face, he said again, "This business opportunity on the sea is one of the important sources of Godfather's huge family property, and it can be said that it is the thicker one among the several thighs of *** Dad."
Qin Yuelou took a sip of wine, then slapped his thigh, pretending to be indignant and said indignantly, his words were full of pride.
"It's easy to say, this sturgeon has blocked Master Zhao's financial route, I understand, I understand, isn't this the third leg broken?! I understand, I can help Master Zhao connect this thigh, this common saying is good, blocking people's wealth is like killing parents, this big fish monster killed your grandparents, and made Master Zhao become a cub without a father and a dead mother, I can't let this big fish monster get away with it."
Zhao Erhe's eyes narrowed, and he seemed to have a killing intent in his heart, but soon this killing intent disappeared in his eyes, and Master Zhao slapped the table and shouted hello.
"Good! Shaoxia is really enthusiastic and chivalrous, if you want to talk about this sea monster, we also have a lot of headaches for it, after all, it is not only our merchant ship that suffered, but other merchant ships also suffered, of course, we also had the idea of removing this sturgeon, but because we did not cultivate to lead the team, we can only put it on hold." Zhao Erhe slapped the table and said, "In this way, we will vigorously publicize it, so that the people of the city, the wealthy businessmen, the rich gentry, and the major families will pay money to suppress the demons together!" When the time comes, we'll split the money."
"Good! Master Zhao regards money as dung, and I want this seventy percent." Qin Yuelou nodded, held up the gourd and said, "Come on, brother, I have to respect you for this cup of wine, this heavenly wealth has been given to me, I have to thank you."
Zhao Mengquan's eyesight was still high, and he hurriedly filled Zhao Erhe with soup: "Dad, this Guishou soup is very hot today, you can drink some to moisten your throat."
"Shaoxia, this money may not be that much, so you have to be prepared." Zhao Mengchao said slowly, and elegantly spit out fish bones from his mouth.
"Oh? Why is that?" Qin Yuelou asked strangely.
"Because at that time, the money of the gentry and the family will be returned in full, and the money of the people is what we can finally share
But think about it, how much money can this people collect? But after all, it's a profitable business." Zhao Mengqing explained.
"Oh, that's what it means, then, what if I want the money of the gentleman and the family?" Qin Yuelou asked, and then slapped the sword on the table, "Everyone, is this enough?"
"This, maybe not enough." Li Kunhai looked at Qin Yuelou's sword and said, "You still need this."
Li Kunhai said, and made a gesture of slapping the startling wood on the table.
"Oh, I see, is this enough?" Qin Yuelou wrapped his hands around his chest, and the long sword in the scabbard was automatically unsheathed, and the sound of the sword resounded through the hall, and it flew around everyone.
It is like a dragon returning to the sea, and it is in the scabbard.
Everyone closed their mouths tacitly, staring at Qin Yuelou and Qin Yuelou's sword on the table.
Zhao Erhe drank this Guishou soup, got up again, and fished the soup pot with a spoon, and there was a stewed ripe turtle lying in the soup pot, just with a little effort, the turtle's neck was crushed by the spoon, put it in a bowl, and handed it to the maid next to him.
The maid understood, and walked to Qin Yuelou's side with the bowl.
"This matter, let's talk about it later, but your strength is obvious to all, you can use this flying sword technique at such a young age, I think you must also be a talented person, today, our Zhao family's maidservant girl can choose a warm bed, it is better to rest at my house tonight, the right to be the wind and dust for you, after all, your hand, is really a big coming, let the humble house shine, we can also be regarded as a disgrace, not to mention, my ignorant little son also had a holiday with you." Zhao Erhe said loudly, but immediately coughed again.
The cough was very violent, but even the blood was coughed up, and the maids on both sides of Zhao Erhe did not dare to move, but only dared to support Zhao Erhe, and the other was to smooth Zhao Erhe's back.
Zhao Mengquan, who was still beside Zhao Erhe, hurriedly prepared the pipe, dug the cigarette pouch, and hurriedly lit the cigarette for Zhao Erhe, then Zhao Erhe grabbed the pipe like a drowning person grabbed the rope and took a puff.
Then his movement calmed down, his expression was calm, and he easily exhaled a puff of cigarette.
Qin Yuelou glanced at the smoke spit out by Zhao Erhe, perhaps because of the swaying candle flame of the oil lamp, the shape of the smoke was like a baby curled up,
But it quickly dispersed.
"So I hope that you, sir, can raise your noble hand, after all, today is a table and head wine, and when you talk about these things with head wine, won't the taste change?" Zhao Erhe smoked a cigarette and laughed.
Qin Yuelou glanced at Zhao Mengye, seemed to be smiling, didn't nod or shake his head, just said something.
"I can forgive him, after all, I'm still alive, those who are dead, do you think you can live to forgive him?"
Zhao Erhe still smiled: "He is still a child, and children are not sensible, so he has done so many wrong things."
Qin Yuelou laughed, but after laughing for a while, he was also tired of laughing, and he couldn't laugh anymore, so he just put his hand on the sword.
"That's why I asked you to accumulate some virtue, there are a lot of people buried under this house, and they want to climb up from below day and night to catch up with you, but it seems to be a means laid by Mrs. Zun, and the people under this not only can't climb up, but also have to give you luck day and night."
Qin Yuelou was about to say something, but his hand holding the sword was pressed by the servant girl beside him with the eight taels on his chest, although it was warm fragrant nephrite, but Qin Yuelou was not confused, but directly withdrew his hand and pushed the servant girl out with the scabbard.
As soon as the servant girl was pushed out, a plump lady walked out of the screen behind Zhao Erhe, but this lady seemed to be in good health, and looking at her inconvenient appearance, it should be a problem with her legs and feet.
"Shaoxia, this is just a little superficial Qingwu technique, I just make the best use of it, not to mention that these people are under this house." The lady said softly, but her voice was a little hoarse like that of a baby.
This lady's lips open and close very little, but Qin Yuelou can also see that the lady actually has no tongue...
No
There is no tongue, but there is no human tongue in the normal sense.
Most of her tongue was missing, and in its place was a two-headed snake entrenched in her lower mouth, which was so small that it stuck out its tongue when she spoke, and that tongue was not a snake letter, but a small tongue like a parrot starling.
It's not like a famous and decent family, but like a warlock who majors in the left side of the door, the warlock may not be high, but the warlock has a lot of side door left path in his mind, although these side door left path is taboo, but once it is displayed, the killing aspect is not weaker than the sword cultivation.
"Since there are masters in your mansion, why can't you take the sturgeon demon in the sea?" Qin Yuelou said, he could naturally see that this noble lady was not a stubble to be messed with.
"There is a specialization in the art industry, and the combat power of sword cultivation is unparalleled in the world, so it is more secure to have you in the lead, isn't it?" The lady said.
"Don't be, you hide behind that screen and I don't notice you, if I take the lead and be clouded by then, I won't find a place to reason."
"That's naturally because the concubine admires the style of sword cultivation and wants to secretly watch you behind the screen, to say that back then, the concubine also knew a Kunlun sword cultivator, named Hu Qiye, but it's a pity that I am old and yellow, alas, now that I see you, I think you are a little similar to that Hu Qiye, I thought you came to me."
"Oh~" Qin Yuelou let out a meaningful sigh.
