The hotel shopkeeper stood at Cheng Yun's wine table, he had already instructed the shopkeeper to add a lot of side dishes to Cheng Yun, although the shopkeeper looked at Cheng Yun as if he were a ghost, but the shopkeeper who paid him was obviously more scared, and he had to bite the bullet to serve food for Cheng Yun.

"Son, are you still enjoying your drink?" asked the shopkeeper with a smile and asked Cheng Yun.

"Smooth! Smooth! There is a shopkeeper Lao! This pot of wine, how much silver?" Cheng Yun picked up the wine pot and shook it at the shopkeeper.

Listening to the sound coming from the gourd, the wine inside seemed to be filled again, Cheng Yun had drunk no less than ten wine jugs of wine since he sat down, and the wine gourd was still full, and the shopkeeper had confirmed that Cheng Yun was the legendary immortal at this moment.

"The son's drink is smooth, it is the glory of the shop, my shopkeeper, there is also light on his face, where is there a reason to ask for the child's silver. The shopkeeper laughed and flattered Cheng Yun.

"This can't be done, this bag of gold should be enough. Cheng Yun took out a small bag, which was full of golden gold.

The shopkeeper glanced at the small bag, all the gold in it added up to enough to buy dozens of restaurants of this size, seeing so much money, the shopkeeper was not moved, he picked up the small bag and put it back in front of Cheng Yun.

"Although the old boy says that he loves money, but I don't dare to earn the money of the son, if the son insists on giving it, it will be torturing the old child!"

"Since you insist on doing so, you're welcome. Cheng Yun smiled slightly and took the gold into his arms.

After Cheng Yun put away the gold, the shopkeeper of the "Son-in-law" became distracted, as long as he was a discerning person, he could see that the shopkeeper had something in his heart that had not yet been said.

"Shopkeeper's. Is there something wrong?" Cheng Yun put the wine gourd into a delicate pouch hanging from his waist, and the pouch didn't look like it could hold the wine gourd, but when the wine gourd touched the pouch, it was inhaled by the pouch.

The shopkeeper who secretly saw this scene immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Cheng Yun.

Cheng Yun didn't stop the shopkeeper. He said lightly: "The shopkeeper doesn't need to be so polite, if there is something, but it doesn't matter." ”

"Son-in-law, the old child's mother is seriously ill! Please ask Child-in-law to save her life!" The shopkeeper's expression was eager, not like a fake.

Since his mother's illness, he has almost exhausted his family wealth, just hoping to find a famous doctor to treat his mother, under the care of expensive medicines. In recent years, his mother has needed more and more money to recuperate, and the shopkeeper has no choice but to move some crooked thoughts and cut corners by mixing some water into the wine sold.

"I'm just a scholar, if I see a doctor, I should go to Lang Zhong!" Cheng Yun looked as usual, he didn't agree to the shopkeeper.

"Son, please, as long as you can save the mother of the second child. Even if you let the little one be a cow and a horse, there is no complaint!" said this, and the shopkeeper kowtowed again and again. His strength was so heavy that blood oozed from his forehead.

Seeing the shopkeeper like this, Cheng Yun sighed slightly, he took out a book from his arms, and said to the shopkeeper: "Birth, old age, sickness and death." It's a few days, Cheng is just a scholar, and he studies hard just to be on the list one day, Cheng can't help you in this matter. However, since the old lady is seriously ill, perhaps reading some poetry will be of some benefit to the condition. ”

Cheng Yun put the scroll in his hand on the table, left another ingot of gold, and then left straight away.

The shopkeeper stood up, looked at Cheng Yun who was leaving, and was secretly scolding Cheng Yun for being ruthless in his heart, when he saw the scroll left by Cheng Yun on the table opened, and the other words on the scroll were all blank, leaving only eight eye-catching big characters "Three watches in the middle of the night, poplar tree at the door".

"Thank you immortals! Thank you immortals!" Seeing this situation, the shopkeeper immediately bowed repeatedly in the direction of Cheng Yun's departure, and thanked him more than once.

When Cheng Yun left, when he passed by the poplar tree at the door, he gently stroked a poplar leaf, and then drifted away.

"There is still a month before the release of the list, and I have to find a place to stay, so as not to sleep in the open and have nowhere to return. Cheng Yun smiled slightly, and while his divine sense was running, he walked towards the Xicheng District of Luoyang City.

In Xicheng District, there is a small and small store, this store is doing Danqing business, and the shopkeeper is also a scholar who has read the book of sages, known as Bai Xiaoru.

"Shopkeeper Bai, if you want to return to your hometown, why do you have to stick to this Chu Yunxuan, sell this store, exchange some silver for entanglement, and leave as soon as possible!" In this store called Chu Yunxuan, there is another person, he is the shopkeeper of the shop next door, and he is persuading Bai Xiaoru to sell Chu Yunxuan.

"The old man has already said that Chu Yunxuan only sends people who are destined, shopkeeper Wang, you are not a destined person in this store, or don't bother to talk too much, this store, the old man will not sell it. Bai Xiaoru shook his head, and drew his own again.

"Alas, the white shopkeeper, you insist on this, so I will say more, there are still important things in the store, so I will leave first. Shopkeeper Wang sighed slightly and left Chu Yunxuan.

"Go slowly, don't send it!" Bai Xiaoru did not look up, and continued to finish his danqing.

Cheng Yun walked to Bai Xiaoru's shop and looked up at the plaque "Chu Yunxuan".

"Good name!" Cheng Yun couldn't help but admire it, when he saw this name, he felt that this shop had a fate with him.

"Little brother is so knowledgeable, dare to ask little brother, what is good about this name?" Bai Xiaoru heard Cheng Yun's admiration, he put down the paintbrush in his hand and asked in a deep voice.

Cheng Yun hugged his fist at Bai Xiaoru, then walked into the store, and said to Bai Xiaoru with a smile: "I don't know what else is good about this name, but the late name is with Yun, and the surname of the late brother is Chu." This Chu Yunxuan, implying the names of my two brothers, even if it is not good, in the eyes of the later life, it is also good. ”

Bai Xiaoru was slightly surprised that many people had praised his shop. But they all just said that the location of the store was excellent, and no one ever said how good the name was.

"I see that the little brother is full of heaven, the instrument is lofty, and he is an extraordinary person, the old man's name is Bai Xiaoru, and he is the shopkeeper of this Chu Yunxuan, I don't know what the little brother is doing when he comes to my Chu Yunxuan?" Bai Xiaoru put away his brush, his painting was finished.

"Come to Suodian. Cheng Yun smiled slightly. Pointing to the plaque of Chu Yunxuan, he said to Bai Xiaoru.

Bai Xiaoru didn't get angry when he heard Cheng Yun say this, he was silent for three breaths, and then said: "The little brother is interested in this store, and the old man is also happy to fulfill it, but this old store is only given away, not sold, and only given to people who are destined." ”

Cheng Yun smiled indifferently and said, "What the old gentleman said is extremely true. Such stores should be given to people who are destined, and Cheng is precisely the person who is destined. ”

"Where's the fate?" Bai Xiaoru asked.

Cheng Yun unbuttoned his clothes slightly. A circle in front of his chest was revealed, and there was a small gap between the end and the end of the circle.

"Cheng's circle is here, Mr. Bai, is Cheng the person you said you are destined?" Cheng Yun buttoned up his clothes. Xiang Bai Xiaoru asked.

"Little brother, you still need to leave a picture of Danqing for the old decay, so that the old decay can know whether you are a person who is destined. Bai Xiaoru took out a piece of fine rice paper and a wolf pen and handed it to Cheng Yun, Chu Yunxuan was a shop that sold danqing. There are a lot of such items.

Cheng Yun took the pen and ink, without thinking, and directly drew a huge circle on the paper, the circle was incomplete, and when Cheng Yun put down the pen and closed the pen, there was a small gap.

"This is Chu Yunxuan's title deed and house deed, the ink treasures in the store are all painted by the old decay for decades, whether to sell or keep, it is up to you to decide, the old decay packs up, and is about to return to the hometown, can the little brother tell the name, so that the old decay can also know, who is the surname of the owner of this shop from now on?" Bai Xiaoru said while packing up his things, he didn't take a penny of the gold and silver property in Chu Yunxuan, he just took away a white jade paperweight and a few worn-out paintbrushes.

"Late life, Cheng Yun, thank you old man. Cheng Yun bowed to Bai Xiaoru.

"It doesn't have to be so, this store is not owned by the old decay, when the old name fell to Sun Mountain, exiled in the capital, lonely, if it were not for the former shopkeeper of this store to take in, I am afraid that I would have starved to death on the street, and today I will give this store to the little brother, which is also regarded as a good deed. Bai Xiaoru had already packed his bags, he picked up the painting he had painted earlier and handed it to Cheng Yun.

"Little brother, you have a relationship with this Chu Yunxuan, and you also have a relationship with the old man, this painting was painted by the old man on a whim today, so I gave it to you. After Bai Xiaoru handed over the scroll, he didn't say anything more, and left the store directly, he was already old, and he was going back to his hometown to retire.

Cheng Yun clenched his fist again at the departing Bai Xiaoru, and he opened the picture scroll, slightly stunned.

On the scroll, a young man dressed in white stood in Chu Yunxuan, he raised his pen to paint, and faintly, he could see that there was a circle-like ink mark on the young man's chest, this young man was exactly what Cheng Yun looked like.

"Edge. Cheng Yun put away the scroll, and he was even more convinced that his fate was in this Luoyang City.

"Since I'm painting in the painting, it means that I should eat this bowl of rice! If I lose my name, I can also support myself by this. Cheng Yun calmed down and hung the circle he had drawn on the wall of the counter.

"Shopkeeper, how can this painting be sold?" However, after a while, there were already guests in Chu Yunxuan, and after touring around, the guest pointed to the circle behind Cheng Yun and asked.

Cheng Yun turned around and saw that the customer was referring to the circle he had drawn, he smiled indifferently and said something that the customer would never forget: "This one, it's cheap! One hundred taels of gold!"

After hearing this, the customer showed an expression of disbelief, and after a few breaths of silence, he left the shop directly

After January, it was the day of the release of the list, as Cheng Yun expected, he was not on the list, and his name fell to Sun Shan, and the article of the top candidate on the list was exactly the same as the one he wrote.

"I'm no name on the list, I don't have the face to go back! I'd better sell my paintings here in peace." Cheng Yun smiled mockingly, and he didn't know if he was laughing at himself or laughing at others.

In January, Cheng Yun has painted nearly 100 picture scrolls, each picture scroll is only one circle, the picture scroll left by Bai Xiaoru in Chu Yunxuan has all been bought, and now in the store, only Cheng Yun painted a circle, each circle is sold for a hundred taels of gold, never increase the price, and never reduce the price.
