Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Owner Admitted Defeat and Was Full of Surprise

That phrase lingered in my ears for a long time.

I came to Shangdu to find someone.

"Who is Hu Dongjia looking for?"

"Hehe, is it a man? or a woman?"

There was some noise from the others, and there was also a whispering of laughter.

"Oh?" Shen Sumang said with an unclear meaning, "Hu Dadong's family is really good at avoiding the important and light." ”

"Why did Pavilion Master Su say this? This little brother also said that the eyes of the jade lion were looking upward, and what I said was indeed the truth. ”

Shen Suxiang suddenly touched me with his elbow. I looked up a little dazed, and listened to his tone with a little grievance, "Little brother, you are the middleman, do you want to count him as a pass this time?"

I really couldn't stand the tone of his speech, and when I turned my eyes away from the other place, I saw Hu Qi looking at me with a soft face, and there was a hint of calmness and confidence in his eyes, as if he had expected what I would say.

A sullen breath rose in my chest, and I wanted to have a seizure but couldn't.

He has lied to me for so long, how can I conclude that I will help him this time?

I lowered my eyelids and saw that the eyes of the ghost-eyed jade lion had returned to normal, clenched my fists, and slammed my head up to look straight ahead.

"The owner of the Su Pavilion said before the gambling game started that he would answer truthfully, and the eyes of the jade lion were looking upwards, indicating that this was the truth. This time, it can be regarded as Hu Dong's pass. ”

The people under the high platform began to talk again.

"Little brother, don't you want to know who our Hu Dadong family is looking for?" Shen Sumian's rather resentful tone came again, "Aren't you curious at all?"

I still didn't look at him, but whispered: "It's just a person who meets in the water, so why bother with other people's affairs." ”

"Why bother with other people's affairs......" he paused for a while, and then sighed, "I can't imagine that the little brother is still a thin man...... Hu Dadong, what do you say?"

I was forced to sit between the two of them, and I felt like I was on pins and needles, and the swords of the colorful sword in the scabbard clanged as if sensing my discomfort.

At this moment, there was a low laugh from the other side, and the blue shadow leaned over and said in a tone that I was very familiar with: "Thank you, Woman!"

That's the tone that only Hu Xiaoer can have!

I suddenly looked to the side with my eyes wide open, but I saw that Hu Qi was already sitting upright, looking at me casually, and smiling at me quite thoughtfully.

"Pavilion Master Su, you have one last question to ask Hu. He said to Shen Sumaung.

Before Shen Sumaung could answer, someone below reminded him,

"Heh, the first two questions and answers are too boring! This time, Pavilion Master Su has to think about it carefully, and he can't let the Hu Dongjia get mixed up anymore!"

"Yes, yes, we guys are still waiting to hear the shocking secret!"

One person couldn't help but whistle, and others laughed and echoed.

Shen Sumaung also laughed, "Look, it seems that everyone is very interested in Hu Dadong's private affairs." ”

He paused, and waited for the surroundings to be quiet, and then slowly spat out the words in his mouth,

"My third question is, dare to ask Hu Dadong's family, what is the name of the medical saint Yun Niangniang?"

Huh? Shen Sumaung asked-

One of the three strange women in the rivers and lakes, the name of the wonderful hand benevolent Yun Niangniang?

No one made a sound under the high platform for a moment, and the faces of the visitors were full of the word "curiosity".

And so is my heart at the moment.

In the past, I heard Meng Yunsheng tell a lot of legendary stories about Yun Niangniang. Passing by Qingquan Mountain a month ago, I got to know her more deeply from Master Mao.

She is good at medicine, and she is kind and generous, and she is called "Medical Saint", "Living Bodhisattva", and "Yun Niangniang" on the rivers and lakes, but I am afraid that no one knows what her real name is.

Shen Sumaung, why is he-

"Pavilion Master Su, why do you conclude that I will know the name of the Medical Saint Yun Niangniang?" said Hu Qi casually.

"Not only am I sure that you will know Yun Niangniang's name, but I also know that you have a great relationship with her. ”

Although Shen Sumang said this to Hu Yan, the golden mask came towards me, leaned down slightly, and lowered his voice very low, "Xiao Ye'er, I'm helping you find out the secrets of Hu Dadong's family, you have to stand on my side." ”

I furrowed my brow and stared straight to the other side. Hu Yan's expression was not affected by it at all, and he said calmly: "It turns out that the owner of the Su Pavilion wants to use this gambling game to stir up relations, and he really plays a good hand. ”

Hu Dadong's family praised it. Shen Sumaung was not to be outdone, and said, "Don't they all say that the news list is okay and you don't know anything? Even if Hu Dadong's family has nothing to do with that Yun Niangniang, as the owner of the news list, you should know what her reputation is." ”

His tone rose, deliberately raising his voice a little, "That Yun Niangniang has also been as mysterious as Hu Dadong's family over the years, and we are all very curious about her. The big proprietor may wish to announce his name to the public, and also for all of us to ...... Loun Ile Fun?"

The crowd of spectators echoed one after another.

Although Hu Qi's face did not change, I saw a trace of solemnity suddenly flash in his eyes, which dimmed for a moment, but soon emitted a gentle soft light.

He chuckled, slowly picked up the tea cup on the table, and lowered his eyelids, "There is always an inexplicable confidence in the owner of the Su Pavilion, which makes Hu very admired. ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Shen Sumian accepted all the praise and criticism, tilted his head and said, "So, what is the answer of Hu Dadong's family?"

"My answer, the name of the medical saint Yun Niangniang. Hu Qi put down the teacup and looked at him, "Her name isβ€”"

At this moment, the Sifu gambling house is boiling and lively. The protagonist of the discussion in the mouths of the spectators is the same person, that is, Shen Sumaung, the owner of the Fengyue Pavilion in Suyang, Jiangnan. Many people also walked up to the high platform and cheerfully congratulated him.

The reason is that in front of a cup of tea, Shen Sumaung won his bet with Hu Qi. Now in his hands, there is the ghost-eyed jade lion of the little young master of Yuyang Guanximen, the peerless piano score of the Guangling composer, the pearl of the South China Sea that runs through the alley of the Dongjia Hu Qi, a promise from the mother-in-law of Fulin Heluo, and his own mutton fat white jade paste.

In this fame and fortune meeting, Shen Sumaung made a lot of money and was undoubtedly the biggest winner.

I recall the choice Hu Qi made at the last minute.

"My answer, the name of the medical saint Yun Niangniang. ”

Everyone was looking forward to the name in his mouth.

"Her name isβ€”"

Hu Yan suddenly stood up when he said this, strode forward, and saluted the audience with a regretful face, and his tone was very sincere, "Oh, I really can't play someone Hu anymore." Fang Cai fought with the Su Pavilion Master for a while for the sake of face. You must know that Yun Niangniang's heart is as kind as a bodhisattva, how can a mere news list record her name?"

As he spoke, he patted his head with his hand, making an extremely depressed appearance, and finally turned around and shook Shen Sumaung uprightly, "In this game, Hu Mou lost convincingly, and he is willing to give the South China Sea pearls in the wooden box to the owner of the Su Pavilion with both hands." ”

As he spoke, Hu Zhen really picked up the box on the wooden platform, and handed it to Shen Sumaung with both hands.

No one expected this to be the end.

The big proprietor who walks through the alley will take the initiative to admit defeat?

Everyone below was shocked.

"It turns out that this so-called Hu Shangong is nothing more than that!"

"I can't say that, Yun Niangniang has indeed never made her name public on the rivers and lakes. How can I know if he is a mortal?"

"Tsk, I think it looks like the owner has another secret? Could it be that ......he lost on purpose?"

Shen Suxiang ordered someone to accept the South China Sea pearl, but he didn't say a word. I saw that his figure sitting on the golden chair was not as proud and excited as before, and now his tone of joy towards the crowd was also faint, and he seemed to be very uninterested.

While the eyes of others were falling on one person, I moved to the high platform little by little, shrunk and slipped towards the back of the crowd. Suddenly, someone grabbed me by the collar of my back, and it was still a little stronger.

I gasped, clenched my fists and turned back, only to see two shallow pear vortices on the man's face, rippling with a smile that I was very familiar with, and leaning over, and said in words that only the two of us could hear:

"Ah Qi, where are you going?"
