Chapter 19: The Devil Who Sold Himself (4k)
With the financial resources of the Wang family, an inn was built in less than half a month.
But Wang Fu still felt that the inn was a little shabby, and he was sorry for the identity of the Liaozhai Inn. But Qin Chuan said that most of the people to be accommodated in the inn are desperate, and at this point, it is enough to have a place to stay.
What Qin Chuan said has always been very reasonable.
Wang Fu was no longer entangled.
Then Qin Chuan cleaned the inn with Taoism, and wrote the plaque of the four big characters of the Liaozhai Inn, so the Liaozhai Inn opened.
Another half a month has passed, and the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed.
Liaozhai Inn has never had guests.
But Wang Fu often comes.
With Qin Chuan here, he was not afraid of anything, and wanted to see any demons and ghosts, but unfortunately he didn't see any of them.
As for the dust and the stars, they naturally came along.
They wished that Wang Fu would come every day and live directly in the Liaozhai Inn.
Because the lobby of the inn is hung with many brushes and inks of Qin Chuan, among which the authentic work of "Chivalrous Journey" is here. Moreover, out of the dust and picking stars, I also found that in those pen and ink, there is no lack of upright and sharp literary atmosphere, and even Haoran righteousness, they are in it, and it is very difficult to use their souls.
It's just that these things don't prevent them from comprehending the sword intent in the chivalrous line.
And although the Liaozhai Inn will be suppressed or affected because of the righteousness and literary atmosphere contained in those pen and ink, it will no longer compete with it all the time.
Invisibly, the soul was exercised.
Dust and Stars faintly discovered this.
They hadn't deliberately cultivated their Divine Soul recently, and the growth rate of their Divine Soul cultivation was a bit faster than before. Qingyun Daoist also noticed this, and took the initiative to ask to come to the Liaozhai Inn as a shopkeeper.
Qin Chuan thought that Liaozhai Inn really needed a shopkeeper, so he agreed.
Later, out of the dust and picking stars, they all volunteered to be the second runner, as long as they came, if there were guests, they had to work, and if there was trouble, they would also take action.
So three Laoshan Taoist priests, two worked as casual workers for Qin Chuan, and one did long-term labor.
Qingyun Dao Chang also felt that he had taken advantage.
Qin Chuan realized something from this incident.
Those pen and ink with a literary and upright spirit can not only suppress the spiritual souls of practitioners and alien kinds, but also stimulate the potential of the divine souls and promote cultivation through this suppression.
The beauty of this is that even the academy also has it.
The heroic righteousness and literary atmosphere of the academy are definitely only a lot more than that of the Liaozhai Inn.
That's the accumulation of I don't know how many years.
Therefore, cultivating in a place like the academy must have progressed very quickly.
What's more, there is also the Dao rhyme that Qin Chuan wants to get.
Through this incident, Qin Chuan can be regarded as having some understanding of the academy.
He can even call it a little academy here?
After all, Qin Chuan's pen and ink are all famous articles, and they are still gathering literary atmosphere in an endless stream. The original manuscripts such as the Sword of the Yue Girl and the Biography of Liu Yi are still bound and placed on the bookshelf in the inn hall.
However, you cannot borrow it freely.
Many rules of Liaozhai Inn will gradually improve with the development of the future.
Anyway, Qin Chuan's words are the rules.
Change it slowly.
The basis of the existence of this inn itself is Qin Chuan's strength.
Therefore, if he has the strength, he can say anything.
In addition, the most basic rule, that is, not to make trouble in the inn, he will not change this one.
Liaozhai Inn is in front of Wuliuzhuang, and Wuliuzhuang has become a backyard.
It's easy to take care of anything.
The day after the Mid-Autumn Festival, a guest finally came to the Liaozhai Inn. Guest ghosts, to be exact. Because the Liaozhai Inn does not accept ordinary people, Qin Chuan outside the inn asked Qingyun Daoist to arrange a simple maze array, and ordinary people or people who have nothing to do with the inn can't enter at all.
And there is a stone tablet outside the array, which explains the business content of Liaozhai Inn.
After reading the content of the nearby literacy, it will naturally spread out, and the Liaozhai Inn is already ghostly, and ordinary people will soon come out after approaching, and they can't enter the inn at all, so they naturally avoid it.
In this way, Qin Chuan can also be purified.
…
…
"Liuxian, a guest is here."
This guest ghost was brought by Wang Fu himself.
Liaozhai Inn finally opened, as a spiritual shareholder, and Wang Fu, the contractor of the inn, was very excited. He was going to go back and tell his wife the story of the day.
Forget it, if you let Madame know that it's a female ghost, maybe you will do something to him.
Women are terrible, and he has no doubt that she can eat female ghosts when she is jealous.
It was a soaked, wet female ghost, dressed in a red costume and barefoot, floating in.
Dust and stars are on its left and right, as if facing a great enemy.
On the contrary, Wang Fuhun didn't care.
He has recently cultivated the Divine Foot Sutra, and his divine energy is full, and the yin qi on the female ghost will not make him uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, the female ghost in the red costume was a little afraid to approach him.
When I arrived at the inn, because of the existence of those pen and ink calligraphy and paintings, the female ghost in the red costume was strongly suppressed, and the ghost energy on her body was much more restrained.
The wetness on his body has decreased, except for his frighteningly white face, which is normal in other aspects.
Step barefoot on the floor with a light posture.
It's not the lightness of being a ghost, her temperament and figure, she is also a very light woman when she is alive.
"You want to stay in a hotel?"
The female ghost in the red costume nodded, although her ghost aura was suppressed, she felt a sense of relief. Those gentleness and righteousness gave her great oppression and a great sense of security.
"Hmm."
Qin Chuan was curious: "You have nowhere else to go, you still need to get shelter here." ”
The voice of the female ghost in the red costume is very crisp, like the sound of mountain spring water, which is very moving, "I was chased and killed by a thing, I heard that I will be sheltered here, and it is very safe." ”
She said the back, showing a very frightened emotion.
Qin Chuan smiled, "I heard that the ghost dies for 魙 (zhān), 魙 dies for Xi, Xi dies for Yi, there is a saying called turning danger into Yi, in fact, Yi means that you can't die anymore." You're just a ghost now, and you can die three more times, so there's no need to be so scared. ”
The female ghost in the red costume was a little stunned, "Really? ”
"Just kidding, relax."
Female ghost in red costume: "......"
The inn didn't seem to be quite what she had imagined.
"Can this really shelter me?" She asks directly about what matters most.
In fact, seeing the words and ink around her, she had the answer in her heart. She's scared, and that thing will be scared too.
"Probably no problem, but what is it that is chasing and killing you?"
"A pair of red embroidered shoes. I was killed by it. The woman looked fearful and disgusted.
"Red embroidered shoes? How did it kill you? Qin Chuan came to be interested.
The female ghost in the red costume shook her head, "I don't know, anyway, I was originally singing at a foreigner's house, and they changed me into a pair of red embroidered shoes, and I died." After I died, the red embroidered shoes came to me, so I kept running until I ran to a ghost village, and the owner of the house told me that I could get shelter here and avoid the pursuit of the red embroidered shoes, so I came. ”
"Ghost Village? It seems that the ghost mother is taking care of my business. Who are the outsiders? ”
"Outside the laborers of Huaning Mansion."
"Have you seen him?"
"No, I just went to one of his other courtyards to sing."
"Jingu Garden in Jinhua County?"
"Well, you know?"
"Been there once. Can you still feel the red embroidered shoes chasing you? ”
"Well, it's quite far away from me for now. But they should come back to me again. ”
It's a mysterious induction.
Qin Chuan: "I probably understand the matter, but my inn can't live in vain, you have to pay for accommodation." ”
Female ghost in red costume: "But I don't have any money now, but I saved a sum of money during my lifetime, and if you can protect me, I can tell you where that money is." ”
Qin Chuan groaned: "I don't accept mortal currency here, do you think you have anything else valuable?" ”
The female ghost in the red costume thought for a while, and said weakly: "Is it okay to sell yourself to you?" ”
Qin Chuan: "......"
It was the first time he had heard of a ghost selling himself.
What a world?
Qin Chuan coughed, "Tell me what you will do first?" ”
"I can only sing."
"It's good to sing." Wang Fu was a little excited.
He hadn't heard a ghost song yet.
The painted skin ghost had sung eighteen touches before, but he was disgusting when he thought about it.
It's still the delicate little female ghost in front of her, pitiful, weak and helpless.
Qin Chuan thought about it, and it seemed that the inn did lack entertainment. The storyteller is the head of Qingyun Dao, so the female ghost in the red costume is a flower dan, and occasionally performs on stage, which can also create additional income.
The current world is very volatile, and even an inn like him, which shelters aliens, must be developed in all aspects.
In the future, it can also be developed into a comprehensive demon hotel.
Do you want to expand your business to the heavens and all worlds?
Qin Chuan's divergent thinking.
People just have to dare to think.
Although there is only one of his current guests, he is still a penniless poor female ghost.
"Yes, then we have to sign a deed of sale. Contract for as long as you want. ”
"What do you think?" The female ghost in the red costume is obviously very knowledgeable and knows that she has no room for bargaining.
"That's 10,000 years."
"Will it be a little longer?" She said weakly.
It is indeed 100 million points long.
Qin Chuan smiled: "Just kidding, you have to be a little bolder when you are a ghost." Otherwise, you will be shaken away by my righteousness and literary energy, and I will be very disadvantaged. ”
"Hmm."
"What's your name?"
"If you make a play, saying your name will insult your ancestors. The owner just called me red embroidery. ”
"Embroidery of shoes?"
"Yes."
"No wonder you were killed by the red embroidered shoes. But don't be afraid if you die, and I'll help you. ”
Hongxiu suddenly felt that what the owner said was so reasonable, she was killed by Hongxiu shoes, what are you afraid of?
But it makes sense, but it makes sense, she doesn't dare to face that red embroidered shoe again.
Ghosts often have an instinctive fear of killing themselves.
So Qin Chuan asked Hongxiu to make a ghost oath.
In fact, it is equivalent to the spiritual oath of a monk, and it is very effective.
So Liaozhai Inn had its first guest ghost, and he was also half an employee. I worked part-time at Liaozhai Inn, and the money from my part-time job was used to pay for accommodation.
Although Qin Chuan has not earned the first money.
But it's a long-term investment.
Wang Fu was very arrogant, "Liuxian, I will give a spirit coin, can I listen to her sing a tune?" ”
Spirit coins are made from crystalline spirit stones of spirit veins.
Laoshan has its own spiritual veins, and there are spiritual stones that are produced and made into spiritual coins.
Spirit coins contain abundant and pure aura.
Overall, the spiritual veins in this world are extremely scarce, and spirit stones are not common, so they will be made into spirit coins.
Wang Fu has been doing a lot of business recently, providing some resources that Laoshan needs, so he has obtained some spirit coins, and his net worth is richer than that of some monks.
When they come out of the dust and pick up stars, their eyes are shining, and they can also sing.
Qin Chuan smiled and asked Hongxiu: "Sing a song." ”
In the ghost oath, the income she earns, after deducting the room fee, can get 30% of the income. There are also thirty percent, which is actually very good.
In her original troupe, all the income went to the class owner, and then the class owner paid her salary.
There can be a difference unless it becomes a pillar.
In the opera world, only the Wei family class is better treated.
Most of the people in the other troupes are livestock.
"Is it okay for a mountain ghost?"
"Yes."
There are Quzi in this world, so mountain ghosts also exist.
The red embroidery troupe is also called the ghost troupe, and the songs it sings are mostly ghostly, but she didn't expect that one day she would become a ghost.
"If someone is in the mountains, he will be taken by Xue Lixi.
is both embarrassed and smiling, Zi Muyu is good at smiling.
……
Thunder fills the rain, chirps and chirps at night.
The wind is sassy and the wood is Xiao Xiao, and Si Gongzi is away from worry. ”
She vividly expressed the mournful sigh of the mountain ghost, and because she was a ghost, it seemed that she was really the mountain ghost in Qu Zi's imagination, appearing in the Liaozhai Inn.
Legend has it that the gods love mournful sounds. The more sorrow and compassion of life are expressed in the sacrifice, the more it can attract the mercy and care of the gods.
Red embroidery sings this mountain ghost, not only lamenting his own life, but also wanting to get the protection and mercy of the gods.
As a human being, it was already bitter.
I hope the ghost life will be better.
She died because of the red embroidered shoes, and she didn't even know where the ghost door was, so she could only be a lonely ghost, destined to wander in the sun until her soul was gone.
Wang Fu listened to it sadly, this was not the song he wanted to hear.
And the red embroidery sang sadly and movingly.
Even after singing, Wang Fu felt that his ears were full of mountain ghosts, and that kind of mourning was deep in the bone marrow, and it was impossible to shield it.
"Brother Wang, I will receive a spirit coin."
Wang Fu glanced at Qin Chuan very sadly.
But he still handed over the spirit coins.
Qin Chuan: "Do you want to listen to anything else?" ”
Wang Fu sighed, "I don't want to hear anything now." ”
Qin Chuan smiled slightly, "You have been restless lately, listening to this song is actually good, it can extinguish the fire in your heart." After you go back, you will definitely make progress in cultivating the mantra I passed on to you. ”
Wang Fu: "Really? ”
"It's okay if you think it's fake."
"Then I'll take it seriously."
As long as you can deceive yourself, you will never lose.
This is the secret of his business.
At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the inn.
The gloom reverberates.
trample
trample
Trample......
The ghost body of the red embroidery trembled unconsciously, and said to Qin Chuan: "Owner, it's here." ”
The footsteps kept getting closer to the inn, becoming clearer.
The door to the inn was not closed, and it became gloomy.
It's terrifying.
But except for the red embroidery, no one is afraid.
Because in the inn, there are no ordinary people.
The ghostly footsteps naturally didn't understand this, and kept approaching.
As if to say,
"Don't run."
"Found you......"
Until a pair of red embroidered shoes finally stepped into the threshold,
A small fiery snake appeared and lit a red embroidered shoe that seemed to ooze blood.
Yes!
A terrible scream.
"The sun is really hot."
