Section 245 Concealment of the New Year's Day (1)
Ling'er rode a long distance west and did not find the town that Gongsun Qian had in her mouth, and she was frustrated to find that she was lost.
Just when Ling'er was disheartened and was about to go back, she met a woman who was also riding a horse.
Ling'er hurriedly stepped forward and asked for directions: "This little sister, borrow a light, do you know how to get to Treasure Villa?"
The woman turned her head to look at Ling'er and said unhappily, "How do you know that you are older than me?"
"I'm sorry, I was rude. Ling'er said with a smile.
"Well, what do you want to do at Treasure Villa? It's only the middle of the month!" the woman asked curiously.
"I'm looking for someone. Ling'er explained.
"Looking for someone, the person you are looking for is the owner of Qi Village?" the woman asked.
"Master Qi Village, could it be that this Treasure Villa is also the property of the Qi family?" Ling'er thought to herself. She asked tentatively, "The Qi Zhuang you are talking about is Qi Yang?"
"Qi Yang, who is he? The owner of the Treasure Villa is surnamed Qi and Yun Shu. The woman kindly explained to Ling'er.
Ling'er thought to herself: "That's right, if Treasure Villa is the property of the Qi family, Xiao Xu told me this morning." ”
The woman saw Ling'er smirking by herself, and she didn't know what she thought, so she couldn't help but joke: "You don't even know the name of the owner of Qi Zhuang, no wonder you get lost." ”
Ling'er's face turned red and she explained shyly, "I've only heard of Treasure Mountain Villa before, and this is the first time I've been there. ”
"I've only heard of people going to Jumbo Villa looking for treasures, but I haven't heard of people looking for them! You're so interesting!" the woman said with a smile, "What's your name?"
"My name is Gan Ling'er. Ling'er said with a smile.
"My surname is Yu Xifan, and my friends call me Xiaofan. The woman laughed, "Look at your stupidity, I'll take you to Jumbo Villa! ”
"That's Lao Xiaofan. Ling'er said gratefully.
The woman Ling'er met happened to be the extraordinary scholar Yu Xifan, she was no longer wearing a black power suit at this time, but wearing a well-fitting beige skit, a dress of a Jianghu woman.

After Ling'er arrived at Jumbo Villa, Yu Xifan, who met her in Pingshui, said goodbye and left.
The rivers and lakes are so big, I don't know when we will see each other again?
Ling'er sighed with emotion and watched Yu Xifan leave, and then walked into the famous Treasure Villa.
Although Jumbo Villa is famous, it does not occupy a large area, which is about the same size as Jijiazhuang and consists of several small courtyards.
Ling'er, accompanied by her attendants, came to the hall of the outermost courtyard.
The shelves in the hall are filled with a variety of treasures. There are many treasures that Ling'er has never seen, let alone their magical functions and uses.
Ling'er told the attendant that she was looking for someone, and the attendant left.
Ling'er looked at the hall, except for some guards guarding the treasures, there were no other guests.
It was boring to wait like this, so Ling'er walked to the nearest shelf to see what treasures were placed on it.
"These are rare elixirs on the rivers and lakes. An old voice sounded behind Ling'er.
Ling'er looked back and saw an old man who appeared out of nowhere looking at her kindly.
The old man introduced: "These pills have their own peculiar effects, can the girl be interested in taking a look?"
Ling'er pointed to the nearest medicine bottle and asked, "What kind of pill is this?"
"This is the 'Soul Locking Pill', but there are distinguished guests who have booked it, and the girl can take a look at the others. The old man said.
"Is the 'Soul Locking Pill' the kind of pill that will force the muscles and veins of the whole body to retrograde once you take it?"
"Not bad. I didn't expect the girl to know about this 'Soul Locking Pill'. The old man looked at Ling'er with some surprise.
"I also learned about this extremely cruel elixir by chance. Ling'er said.
"It's because of its cruelty that makes it so popular. The old man said with a smile.
Generally, the kind of pill that controls internal force is just unable to exercise, even if there is one that can forcibly exercise exercise, it will only hurt the muscles and veins, and this "Soul Locking Pill" is extremely domineering, it can actually cause the muscles and veins to retrograde, causing great pain to the person taking the medicine, and it is really a necessary medicine to torture people.
Just then, a steward walked in.
"I heard that this girl is looking for someone?" the steward was a little surprised. There are many people who come to Treasure Mountain Villa to find all kinds of treasures, but Ling'er is the first person to come here to find people.
"Well, I'm here to find Brother Qi Yang. Afraid that the other party didn't know who Brother Qi Yang was, Ling'er explained, "Uh...... It is the second leader of the Qi family in the capital. ”
Who knew that the steward suddenly looked dumbfounded.
Ling'er asked puzzledly, "What's wrong with you? Brother Qi Yang, isn't he here?" I thought he would come here!"
Only then did the steward react, he patted his forehead and said, "Is the person the girl is looking for Qi Erye?"
Ling'er nodded and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's just a misunderstanding. Second Master Qi has been away from Treasure Mountain Villa for a long time. The steward explained.
"He's gone?" Ling'er was a little disappointed and asked again, "Then what is he doing here?"
"This ......," the steward looked at Ling'er in embarrassment.
Ling'er asked again, "Is it about Wenshan Academy?"
"This ...... I can't say anything, you better ask Second Master Qi yourself!" said the steward cautiously. This girl seems to be familiar with Second Master Qi, and he can't offend him.
Ling'er had no choice but to give up.
"Would you like to see the treasures in our lodge?" said the steward enthusiastically.
"No, I'm going back too. Ling'er was going to leave.
The steward sent Ling'er out.
Ling'er inadvertently glanced at the various masks placed on the shelf next to her, and said in surprise, "You really have masks here!"
"Yes, there are masks of all kinds of materials. Would you like to take a look?" asked the steward with a smile.
"Okay!" Ling'er said, and walked over to the shelf, admiring it earnestly.
There are indeed masks made of various materials. Even if the material is the same, each mask has its own unique pattern, each with its own characteristics.
Suddenly, Ling'er pointed to one of the red ghost masks and said in surprise, "I've seen exactly the same mask as this one, but the color is not red, but black. ”
The steward looked at the mask on Ling'er's finger and introduced, "That's the mask of the 'Four Monsters of Taihu Lake', there are four different colors. In addition to red and black, there are also purple and white. ”
"'Taihu Lake Four Monsters'?" Ling'er had never heard of this name.
"They had been in the mountains for many years, and the masks were sent here for auction. The steward introduced.
"But who would buy these masks?" Ling'er was curious.
"Some people simply like all kinds of masks, while some people have old friends with the original owner of the mask and buy the mask just as a memory. "However, most of the guests belong to the latter category, after all, these masks are worth a lot of money. ”
Ling'er was a little surprised, where did Brother Jun get so much silver to buy that black ghost mask?
"As far as I know, Second Master Qi just likes to collect all kinds of masks, and he doesn't care about that bit of silver. The steward said with a smile.
"Are you saying that Brother Qi Yang often comes here to buy masks?" Ling'er asked. She thought to herself: "He always wears a mask, but he doesn't expect to like to collect masks." ”
"Yes, when the girl said this, she remembered that the black mask of the 'Four Monsters of Taihu Lake' seemed to have been bought by Second Master Qi. "Steward.
"What?" Ling'er was shocked.
