Chapter 229: Lu Shan
"Lu Qianhu ......"
When Lu Shan walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, Qin Mu, who was walking behind him, suddenly stopped him.
When he turned around, he saw Qin Mu hurriedly walk a few steps to him and bow down to him, and said, "Thank you Qianhu Yuanchang just now, otherwise, the city lord's attitude towards me will never improve......"
Qin Mu's voice paused when he said this, and he sighed: "The atmosphere at that time has become depressing, and I will probably be swept out of the courtyard by the city lord with a wave of his sleeves like those merchants in the future." ”
"It's just a small thing."
Lu Shan shook his head with a smile, and said, "Moreover, the city lord will not really be angry with a little person like us." ”
When the words fell, he showed a look that seemed to be smiling, and said: "It's you, don't think that it will be easy to leave the Demon Suppression Division, there are many things that will give you a headache next." ”
Puzzlement flashed on Qin Mu's face.
Lu Shan made a gesture of please and chatted with him as he walked.
"For example...... The courtyard where you live now was assigned by the Demon Division, and when you are notified of your resignation, the courtyard will be taken back. ”
"Although you have a lot of money, except for the Imperial City, you can buy a good courtyard anywhere in the world, but Guanhai City has long been blocked, even if you are the banner master, you can't get out, not to mention that you have resigned from your position."
"And the housing real estate in Guanhai City has long been bought by the monks, although they may have long forgotten that they still have a property in Guanhai City, but those uninhabited properties are the owner after all."
"You also know about the protests of those merchants, which means that the next thing you want to do is to stay in the inn restaurant, but you can't find a place."
"If you take your family to find an uninhabited courtyard and move in, it will be a crime."
"If you live on the streets, you will be troubled by the captains on duty at night, patrols, and even chased around, and eventually you will return to the Demon Division...... But this time, it will be an ordinary prison for the Demon Suppression Division. ”
The closure of Guanhai City occurred after Qin Mu was trapped in the Dossier Building, and the captain who came to the Dossier Building every day to deliver food to him would only put the food downstairs, never go upstairs, let alone communicate with him.
This caused Qin Mu to hear the news for the first time, and he couldn't help but change his face for a while.
When Lu Shan said this, he seemed to remember something again, and added: "Qiu Fenglai is a villain who sees the wind and steers the rudder, if there is really an earth immortal standing behind you, even if he leaves the Demon Town Division, he will not dare to tear his face with you, but will take the initiative to help you cover up some things to please you, such as...... Temporarily suppress the affairs of the courtyard. ”
After that, he spread his hands and said helplessly: "But you are just a flat-headed person, do you think the autumn breeze will sell you face?" ”
Qin Mu sighed lightly and shook his head slowly.
Lu Shan said: "In my opinion, Qiu Fenglai will not only not sell your face, but will also deliberately make things difficult for you, to take advantage of this matter to establish your authority, and you are strangers to those colleagues, if they don't take the opportunity to ridicule you, they are already in the eyes of their former colleagues, and they can't expect them to help you intercede." ”
Qin Mu listened to Lu Shan's analysis, and his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
He originally thought that after leaving the Demon Suppression Division, he would become a vast sky, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
Lu Shan looked at Qin Mu with a sad face on the corner of his mouth, his eyes were full of curiosity, wanting to know how Qin Mu would break the situation in the face of this situation.
Qin Mu is also having a headache about this matter, after all, he has no connections and no strength, if he wants to make trouble, there is still a Song person in the city.
can choose to reveal the news to Qiu Feng to threaten the other party...... But if he does this, he may be slaughtered by the Song people as soon as the words come out.
Choose to ask for ...... can only ask Qi Shayu, but Qiu Fenglai is estimated that he will not sell Qi Shayu's face.
And Tang Mubai, who he can speak, is not in Guanhai City.
The moment the words 'Tang Mubai' came out of his mind, Qin Mu suddenly realized that there was also a thousand households standing in front of him.
He couldn't help but recall what this Qianhu had said to him just now.
"I've heard of your name for a long time, but I've been busy with official business, and I haven't had the opportunity to see ......"
Qin Mu knew very well that he was just an ordinary flag master, if there was any ability to make this thousand households hear...... Most likely, it is the poems and songs that have been transcribed.
Thinking of this, he decided to give it a try.
If that is the case, everyone will rejoice.
If it doesn't work, he can find another way.
As soon as he thought of this, he slowly raised his head and asked Lu Shan: "Although I haven't thought of a way yet, I suddenly have a question I want to ask Qianhu." ”
Lu Shan bowed his head and said, "You ask, but I don't necessarily know." ”
Qin Mu asked with a smile on his face: "I don't know which one Lu Qianhu likes the most among those poems in the past?" ”
Lu Shan was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled in surprise: "I thought you were going to ask me something, it turned out that the consultation question was just a pretense, and you actually hit me with your idea......"
Then the tone was full of appreciation.
"You have a sharp mind, and within a moment of meeting, you have already guessed from my words that I have read those poems that you have copied from your dreams."
Qin Mu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "This is also a way to do it. ”
Lu Shan laughed a few times, blinked and said, "I do like those poems, and I can help you get through today, but what about tomorrow?" What about the day after tomorrow? Do you come up with something that interests me every day? ”
After hearing this, Qin Mu smiled calmly: "There is wine today and drunk today, tomorrow is sorrowful, tomorrow is sorrowful, tomorrow is sorrowful, spend today first, and talk about the future later." ”
After Lu Shan silently recited the poem 'There is wine today and drunk today, tomorrow will be sad tomorrow', he looked at Qin Mu with bright eyes, and said happily: "I know that you must have your own inventory, let's go, help you spend the day first, I'm looking forward to what kind of content you will come up with!" ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and grabbed Qin Mu's shoulder, and strode towards the street where the Qin Mansion was located.
Since they left the City Lord's Mansion, they had already walked a distance while chatting, and now after walking for a while, they could already see the outline of the Qin Mansion in the distance.
Cangbo, who sat on the steps outside the door every day and smoked dry cigarettes, waiting for Qin Mu to go home, saw Qin Mu and Lu Shan from afar.
Although there was still some distance between them, Cang Bo recognized Qin Mu's silhouette at a glance.
At first, he thought his old eyes were dizzy, and he rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
When he opened his eyes wide again and saw Qin Mu who was a distance away, he knew that he was not a dazzling uncle, so he immediately burst into tears and ran towards Qin Mu quickly.
He came to Qin Mu, and after looking at Qin Mu with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he immediately grabbed Qin Mu's arms hard, and said with tears in his eyes: "The owner~ You can finally come back~ The old man looks forward to it during the day and at night, thinking about when you will come back all the time, and every day I think about whether you will be hungry, frozen, or punished in the Demon Division." ”
"Don't go again after coming back this time, we are ordinary people, we have no background and no background, and you are not a good at fighting with people, where can you fight those people."
"They're all ruthless characters who eat people and don't spit out bones, you can avoid them once, but you can't avoid them every time."
Qin Mu gently patted Cang Bo's back and said with a smile: "Don't go, don't go again, I've already resigned from the official position of the Demon Suppression Division." ”
After Cang Bo finished saying that, because he was too excited, tears were still flowing, and he began to laugh.
Now when I hear him say this, he just says the word 'good' again and again, and he can't even say a coherent sentence anymore.
Lu Shan looked at the warm picture of them hugging each other, and laughed along.
He established Dayu in the past so that the people could smile again without being oppressed by anyone.
It's just that since he sat in the imperial city, he has rarely been able to see such a scene again.
But seeing such a scene after a long time, he will still feel moved in his heart.
Qin Mu also introduced Lu Shan to Cang Bo at this time, but he did not mention the identity of the other party's Qianhu, only said that he was a friend he had made.
But Cang Bo knew very well about Lu Shan's coming from the Demon Division.
After all, he, the owner, has been locked up in the Demon Division for this time, and in addition to the people inside, where can he make friends with ordinary people.
Therefore, while he showed enthusiasm for Lu Shan, he was also estranged.
When the group returned to the house and saw Steward Liu watering the flowers, this man who had never stayed outside the door like Cang Bo on weekdays also burst into tears when he saw Qin Mu returning, and when he came up, he greeted Qin Mu with warmth, and called out his mother-in-law who was five big and three thick and asked her to hurry up and cook a table of delicious food.
Cang Ziyu, Cang Ziling and others were not very familiar with Qin Mu, and after hearing the movement from the courtyard, they just leaned on the window and watched, but did not come out to greet them.
Lu Shan just glanced at them casually, and immediately saw that the four of them were carrying spiritual roots, and they were beginning to draw qi.
However, they were originally disciples of the old demon of Cangshan, so he didn't care about it.
Cang Bo knew that this was not the time to catch up, and after introducing Qin Mu and Lu Shan into the study, he was busy boiling water to make tea for them.
Even if Qin Mu didn't go home for half a month, the room was still spotlessly cleaned, and there was still a stove of incense on his long case stacked with more than a dozen books at this time, and the few pots of green plants in front of the window were also taken care of by the flowers and leaves, and the business was full of business.
Qin Mu sniffed the faint fragrance wafting in the room, his face couldn't help showing a relaxed look, and he subconsciously murmured: "Sure enough, whether it is a golden nest or a silver nest, it is far inferior to your own kennel." ”
When Lu Shan, who walked to the front of the bookcase, heard his words, he couldn't help laughing, but he also felt quite reasonable.
No matter how extravagant and luxurious the Qianqing Palace is, in his eyes, it is still not as good as the firewood room where he lived when he was a child, and the broken temple with Lu Zhong lying outside the door.
Thinking of the past, he couldn't help but show a sentimental look, and then sat on the chair and looked curiously at the dozen or so books on the long case.
Qin Mu brought another chair from the side, put it on the other side of the bookcase, reached out and took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of him, and said with a smile while grinding the ink: "These books are all when I can't sleep at night, just flip through them to pass the time." ”
When Lu Shan nodded slightly, he asked curiously, "I've always been curious, what is it like in the fairyland?" ”
Qin Mu was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled helplessly.
He now regrets that he copied the poems in the first place, but if he hadn't had them, he wouldn't have received the attention of so many big people.
At this moment, facing Lu Shan's question, he could only make it up.
But in order to allow Lu Shan to stay in the mansion for a few more days, he also deliberately began to guide in the direction he knew best.
"In fact, the environment of the fairyland you enter in a dream rarely has the same time."
"Sometimes it's in the pavilions and pavilions between the sea of clouds, sometimes it's in the deep mountains and old forests, and sometimes you see a strange world."
Lu Shan became more and more curious when he heard this, and continued to ask, "How strange?" But it's different from Dayu? ”
Qin Mu smacked his lips, his face showed a look of memory, and said, "What do you say...... It was a world where there were no monks, no supernatural powers, no magic, all mortals. ”
When Lu Shan heard him say this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he even began to be impatient.
"Let's listen to what he said if it was made up on the spot, if there really is such a world, I don't know if Dayu can imitate it......"
While thinking about this, he also asked, "If there are no monks, no supernatural powers, no magic, and all of them are mortals, wouldn't the efficiency of doing things be greatly reduced?" ”
Qin Mu shook his head and said, "Although they don't have these, they can use all kinds of tools to improve their efficiency. ”
After saying this, he dipped his pen in ink and sketched the general appearance of the waterwheel on the paper, and in between, Lu Shan stared at the pattern on the paper without blinking.
Qin Mu completed the simple outline of the waterwheel in an instant, and then turned the paper to show it to Lu Shan.
"For example, this thing, called a waterwheel, can use the power of flowing water to make these 'buckets' on the car rotate, so as to pass water through pipes and lead the water flow to the field."
Lu Shan stared at the pattern on the paper, and after hearing Qin Mu's introduction, he nodded again and again: "Wonderful, really wonderful, this thing can directly save the method of traveling clouds and rain." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a piece of green metal from the storage room that shone brightly, softened the metal with one finger, and began to fiddle with the dough-like metal according to the pattern on the paper with great interest.
A moment later, he pinched out a waterwheel that was more intricate than the simple waterwheel pattern on paper.
The moment the waterwheel was built by him, the majestic luck and merit were immediately given by the Tao, and it entered his body like an empowerment.
Because his luck and merit were so majestic that his face became much more ruddy, as if he was drunk.
Qin Mu's current cultivation comes from luck, and he can naturally sense this majestic and vast luck and merit.
But before he was surprised by the sudden appearance of luck, he noticed that Lu Shan erased the traces of luck the moment he got it, and didn't let these luck exude a trace of means!
This method made him secretly frightened in his heart, and he began to doubt Lu Shan's identity in his heart.
It's just a thousand households, but there is no such means to manipulate luck!
At this moment, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.
When Qin Mu subconsciously turned his head sideways, he saw Cang Bo push open the door with a panicked face.
"The owner, a group of people from the Town Demon Division suddenly came outside the gate of the courtyard, and the old man has already asked Steward Liu to block it!"
"Hurry up and jump off the wall with this son!"
"If it's too late, they'll rush in!"
When Qin Mu heard this, he asked with a smile, "Why do you want to jump off the wall and run?" ”
Cang Bo was stunned for a moment, and said in astonishment: "Didn't you escape from the Demon Suppression Division?" ”
Qin Mu smiled and asked, "Where did you see that I escaped?" ”
Cang Bo blinked, "If you hadn't escaped, how could you have blocked the door with a group of people from the Demon Suppression Division as soon as you entered the door?" ”
After Lu Shan heard the conversation between the two of them, he was also a little crying and laughing, and then took out a palm-sized golden token from his arms and said to Cangbo: "Cangbo, you can show this token to the Demon Suppression Division outside the door, and they will leave." ”
Cang Bo glanced at Qin Mu, and after seeing him nod slightly, he walked into the room and took the token from Lu Shan's hand, and left with a suspicious face.
