Chu Qing raised her eyes as she spoke, and saw Xiao Jiu looking at her in a daze, a pair of watery eyes blinked, and she said, "Xiao Jiu, why are you stunned, is it true that I am not right?"

Being called by Chu Qing like this, Xiao Jiufang came back to his senses, felt a little rude, his face turned red, and he nodded hurriedly.

Chu Qing tilted her head again, with a pair of bright eyes, she looked in the direction where everyone was gone, and then said, "Then let's go to Master Zhao's house." After speaking, Chu Qing turned around and walked in front, followed by Xiao Jiu.

The two of them enjoyed the idyllic scenery all the way, while walking towards the village, so they came to Master Zhao's house unhurriedly, and saw the exquisitely carved gatehouse again, Xiao Jiu stepped forward and gently called the door a few times, and waited for a while, the door was opened from the inside with a "squeak", and it was still Master Zhao's wife who opened the door, she recognized Xiao Jiu as soon as she raised her eyes, and hurriedly greeted her with a smile, invited the two of them in, let them enter the hall, made two bowls of tea, turned around and went to the backyard, and found Master Zhao.

It turned out that after Master Zhao came down from the Jade Shoot Peak, he did a few jobs one after another, counting the timber business at home, he was the only one inside and outside, so it was very hard, and it was rare to be busy today, so he took advantage of the afternoon to take a nap in the backyard.

The four of them greeted each other, sat down as the guest of honor, Master Zhao looked Chu Qing up and down, he was familiar with each other, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, but he looked a little similar to the prince of Chu who came that day, so he didn't dare to talk rashly, so he arched his hand to Xiao Jiuyi and said respectfully: "The dog and the children in the township, thanks to the rescue of the son and the son of Chu, the old man is really grateful." After saying that, he got up and bowed deeply.

Xiao Jiu hurriedly put down the teacup, got up from the seat, and supported Master Zhao.

The two returned to their seats, and after sitting down, Master Zhao looked at Chu Qing again, and said, "But I don't know, why didn't Gongzi Chu come today?"

Xiao Jiu forgot that Chu Qing was a woman dressed as a man, so he looked at Chu Qing and was stunned, but Chu Qing rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Master Zhao, I am Chu Gongzi's own brother, he can't come because of something, so I will say hello to the next generation." ”

When Master Zhao heard this, he said with a smile: "Hehe, I've tormented the old man." After speaking, he also bowed his hand in return.

Chu Qing straightened up, sat down, and said: "Before leaving, my brother has already explained, asking the two of us to calculate the silver taels for the construction of the house, and I hope that Master Zhao can give a breakdown." ”

Master Zhao looked Chu Qing up and down carefully, and said, "Oh, don't say it, you two brothers really look alike, just as handsome and chic, full of aura." ”

Chu Qing pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Master Zhao is worthy of a businessman, his words are so ear-catching, but he doesn't know how much to pay for the silver taels that built the house?"

Master Zhao shook his hand, smiled, and sighed: "Alas, thanks to the action of a few immortals, the dog was able to save his life, and the old man's salary is forgotten. ”

When Chu Qing heard that Master Zhao and the craftsmen were so honest and simple, he couldn't help but be moved in his heart, and immediately took out two silver tickets from his arms and said, "Master Zhao, I only have two silver tickets here, one for one thousand taels and one for five hundred taels, but I don't know if it's enough." ”

Master Zhao laughed and said: "Gongzi is really an honest person, I can't hide it, the cost of wood is less than five hundred taels, and the old man has already paid the craftsmen for Gongzi Chu." ”

When Chu Qing heard this, he hurriedly said: "Then how to make it, not to mention that the wood is expensive, just to transport it to the jade shoot peak, I am afraid that it has already gone through a lot of hardships." ”

Master Zhao shook his head and sighed: "That jade shoot peak is thousands of miles on the wall, how can I wait for ordinary people to go up, let alone transport wood." ”

Chu Qing was immediately confused and asked, "Then how is this wood ......?"

Master Zhao smiled and said, "This craftsman went up and down the Jade Shoot Peak and transported the wood, thanks to that old Immortal Granny Duan." ”

Chu Qing immediately forgot about this stubble, he was in retreat during the days when he was building a house, Xiao Jiu was guarding the pass, and it was really thanks to Granny Duan inside and out.

Chu Qing nodded, but said again: "Granny Duan, I will thank you when I go back, but for now, these two silver tickets will be left to Master Zhao." ”

Master Zhao shook his hand again and again, and said, "I can't help it, I can't help it, even if I count the full salary, it's not worth 1,500 taels." ”

Chu Qing stood up, walked in front of Master Zhao, slapped the two silver tickets on the table with a "snap", and said, "Master Zhao, you just listen to me and accept this silver ticket, otherwise, otherwise if there is any difficulty in your family in the future, we will never help again." The reason why Chu Qing said this was because before coming here, he saw that Zhao Tianbao was taken away by Yuru and became dumb, and he thought in his heart that after this Master Zhao knew, he would definitely ask for his help again.

When Master Zhao heard this, he panicked at that time, pinched the silver ticket, either or not, or not, turned his head to look at his wife, and was speechless for a while.

Master Zhao's wife also looked at Master Zhao at the same time, and said helplessly: "Alas, since the son said so, let's be respectful and obey our fate, who told us to raise such a son, maybe this time there will be some disaster." ”

When Master Zhao heard this, he nodded, his excited eyes shed old tears, and he said sadly: "Alas, like Gongzi and others, who are chivalrous and don't love money, the old man really admires them." ”

Chu Qing smiled, so he said, "Master Zhao, why didn't you see Ling Lang?"

When Master Zhao heard this, a burst of pain flashed on his face, and he sighed: "Alas, it's not a secret, the old man's dog, after being rescued by Chu Gongzi, somehow became addicted to gambling again, no, I haven't seen anyone for days, I'm afraid that I owe gambling debts in that casino again, and I am about to go to Shimen Town." ”

Chu Qing really admired the Master Zhao in front of him when he heard this, he was really a bit stubborn and confused, the so-called "adopted son is not the fault of the godfather", then Zhao Tianbao can have today's habits, and your Master Zhao's blind doting is really inseparable.

But he still said with a smile on his face: "I'm just about to go back to Jade Shoot Peak, it's still early at this time, so it's better to go along." ”

When Master Zhao heard this, he was really overjoyed, and he was about to nod his head and agree, but was stopped by his wife and said, "Alas, it's rare for a benefactor to come once, it's still early, it's better to stay at home and eat a homely meal, and let us show our hearts." As he spoke, he went out to sweep the courtyard and kill chickens and wine.

Chu Qing looked at Xiao Jiu and said with a smile: "Old man, don't bother, the coming day will be long, besides, Master Zhao, aren't you in a hurry to find your son?"

One sentence reminded Master Zhao and his wife, the two looked at each other, and had to sigh, Master Zhao said: "Alas, this son, the old man is really worried in his heart, he owes gambling debts in the casino and has been cut off." ”

Chu Qing's face was slightly gloomy, looking at the anxious appearance of Master Zhao and his wife, and shook his head gently.

After speaking, several people said goodbye to Zhao Tianbao's mother, walked out of the village together, and set off for Shimen Town.

Coming to the outside of Shimen Town, Chu Qing suddenly remembered that something was going on, and said: "Master Zhao, I suddenly remembered that we still have important matters, and we want to go back to Jade Shoot Peak in a hurry, so it's better to leave it at that, the casino is not far from here, but I don't know if you can go alone, is it feasible?"

Xiao Jiu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but when he saw Chu Qing winking at him, he also stood behind Chu Qing.

Master Zhao thought about it, it was originally his own business, and he was embarrassed to trouble others again and again, besides, his son was nothing more than a gambling debt, and the two silver tickets that he received today, he had more than two thousand taels in his arms, so he nodded and agreed, thanked the two again and again, and then gave up his hand to say goodbye to the two of them, and walked towards Shimen Town alone.

Looking at Master Zhao's slightly hunched back, Chu Qing sighed and said, "Pity the hearts of parents in the world." Then he told Xiao Jiu what he saw outside the casino and what he followed Zhao Tianbao to the Falling Cloud Pavilion.

After speaking, Xiao Jiu picked up a dead branch on the side of the road, and wrote on the dirt under his feet, "What to do next, are we no longer in charge of Zhao Tianbao's affairs?"

Chu Qing thought for a while and said, "Zhao Tianbao's matter can be put aside for a while, since he made eyeliner for the Falling Cloud Pavilion and received a small punishment, for a while, there will be no other dangers, but that smile, what is the origin of it?" After speaking, his brows furrowed slightly, and he pondered.

Seeing this, Xiao Jiu continued to write on the ground, "It's better to let me explore the Falling Cloud Pavilion once tonight, maybe I can recognize her origin." ”

Chu Qing thought about it, he was indeed not as experienced as Xiao Jiu, so he nodded and said, "That's fine, you have been with Brother Feng for so long, you should have much more experience than me." But after speaking, his eyes rolled, and the corners of his mouth hung a sinister smile, and he said: "Xiao Jiu, do ......you say that men, do you like to go to a place like Xianglou?" After speaking, he narrowed his eyes, looked extremely suspicious, stretched out his slender and slender index finger, and pointed at Xiao Jiu again and again.

When Xiao Jiu heard Chu Qing ask this, his face turned red, a few beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he hurriedly shook his hands constantly.

Chu Qing laughed, slapped Xiao Jiu, and said, "Ha, look at what scared you, I was joking with you." ”

Xiao Jiu looked at Chu Qing again, he was indeed the same, and he looked like he was nothing, so he put his mind at ease, and waited for a while before writing on the ground, "Then Master Zhao, there won't be any danger, right?"

Chu Qing smiled and said: "His son's gambling debts have already been paid off, and the people in the casino shouldn't be embarrassed by him, but it's impossible to say, then Zhao Tianbao is gambling in the casino again at this time, maybe he owes new gambling debts, these miscellaneous matters, we don't have to worry about them for the time being, let's solve the matter of falling cloud pavilion Xiaoxiao first." ”

Xiao Jiu threw away the dead branches, clapped his hands, smoothed the handwriting on the ground with his feet, and nodded.

Chu Qing looked up at the sky and said, "Then, Xiao Jiu, I'll go back to Jade Shoot Peak, you wait for the sky to be later before you take action, I hope there will be a big harvest this time." After speaking, he smiled and turned into a ray of light and fled.
