In spring, the water of the river eases and the current flows slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye. It rained lightly in Nagawa Castle, and the pedestrians with oil-paper umbrellas opened their oil-paper umbrellas one after another, and the raindrops fell on the umbrella surface and parted on both sides, and if those who were in the mood might turn the oil-paper umbrellas to let the raindrops cut the edge of the umbrella and splash out; the pedestrians without oil-made umbrellas ran around with their hands on their heads to look for shelter to hide from the rain, and under the eaves and in the shops, there were a few people who were not afraid of death hiding under the shade of the trees.

This is probably the last rain of late spring, and the granular rain hits the surface of the river, causing the river to ripple constantly. A playful child threw a slightly larger stone on the surface of the river, and the stone splashed a few splashes, and the ripples on the river surface were bigger and more urgent.

Inside the Danwang Building.

The man invited Chen Wenshan's master and apprentice into a private room, which was simply decorated, with a reclining chair, a wooden table, and a plate of fruit on the table. Most of the people who came came were coming for medicine, so this private room was not very luxurious, and luxury seemed cliché.

The man looked at Yao Jiu, who was sitting on the recliner, and Chen Wenshan, who was standing on Yao Jiu's body, and asked, "Wait a minute, I will order someone to take the three-pattern pill used in the Qi Refining Realm, I don't know how much the old gentleman wants?"

Yao Jiu closed his eyes and knocked on the armrest of the recliner and said, "How many of you have?"

The man pondered for a while and said, "Okay, just as the old gentleman wishes." ”

The man clapped his hands outside the door, and a person came in from outside the door, leaned over and said, "Lou ......"

The man snorted majestically, and the man changed his words, "Do you have any instructions from the steward?"

The man ordered, "Go, take all the three-pattern pills used in the Qi Refining Realm in stock and show them to this old gentleman." ”

The man leaned over half-bent over and exited the private room.

The man sat opposite Yao Jiu, put his shirt and robe on the table, and said, "The old gentleman is not like this person from Sichuan City, his face is tight!"

Yao Jiu didn't open his eyes and just said, "This Sichuan City is a big city in the Great River Basin, and people from all over the world come every day, not to mention 10,000, but also 8,000?"

The man smiled, clenched his fists slightly, and said, "It's Tang who is abrupt, and there are a lot of old gentlemen." ”

"Steward Tang seems to be a little nervous?"

The man folded his hands, lay down and said: "I heard that it is raining in this Sichuan City, and the people who come and go are strolling around with umbrellas, and those who do not have umbrellas hurriedly find a place to shelter from the rain." The streets of this famous city are a sight to behold. ”

Yao Jiu opened his eyes, tapped his fingers on the armrest, paused slightly, and then continued to knock: "Then does Steward Tang belong to the person who holds the umbrella, or the person who shelters from the rain?"

"Whether it's an umbrella or a shelter from the rain, it's all people who live under the sky. ”

Yao Jiu moved his body, trying to change his comfortable position, "Oh, Steward Tang's remarks are somewhat interesting. ”

Chen Wenshan picked up a jade pillow from the side and put it on Yao Jiu's head, and followed Zhou Tai to mix together for a long time, but he didn't learn other skills, but his flattering skills and eyesight have improved a lot.

Yao Jiu nodded slightly, very satisfied.

"Isn't the old gentleman a wonderful man?" the man looked at all this, and continued, "The old gentleman's apprentice is a good apprentice. ”

"Let Steward Tang laugh, the qualifications of the inferior apprentices are not good. Just take care of me, a bad old man. ”

"The old gentleman is humble, this cultivation path is not only based on qualifications, sometimes a good master can make up for a lot of things. ”

Yao Jiu pillowed the jade pillow brought by Chen Wenshan, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, although it was a scene, it was okay to listen to it.

The door of the private room opened, like a carp crossing the door, and several maids with plates came in, and on each plate were placed several delicate and small medicine bottles, all made of the finest jade.

The maids stood in a row obediently and skillfully, and the person who went out just now stepped forward and pointed to the plates held by the maids and introduced them one after another: "This three-pattern pill of the Qi Gathering Pill." ”

"This is the Three-Pattern Pill of Zengxuan San. ”

"This is the three-pattern pill that breaks the Yuan Dan. ”

“......”

Yao Jiu waved his hand, then plucked his ears and said, "No need to introduce, these are all three-pattern pills." ”

The man glanced at the man without a trace, and seeing that the man didn't say anything, he said, "This is all the three-pattern pills used in the Qi Refining Realm in our inventory. ”

The old gentleman waved loudly and said lightly: "Wrap it all up." ”

The man was stunned, and said dumbfounded, "All, is the old gentleman sure?"

Before Yao Jiu could speak, the man's voice sounded in the private room, calm and majestic, "What the old gentleman says is what he says." ”

"How do I teach you on a daily basis. ”

The man hurriedly leaned over and clenched his fists and said, "Yes, steward." He turned his head and instructed the maids, "Pick them all up for the old gentleman." ”

The maids bowed slightly, and replied crisply: "Yes." ”

The maid went down, and the man leaned over and was about to retreat when the man called him down, "By the way, I saw that the old man's apprentice has not yet taken the ordination." Go, prepare a vow to give to the old gentleman's disciples. ”

"Yes. ”

The man also withdrew.

Yao Jiu said with a smile: "There is Lao Tang in charge of bothering. Wen Yi, and he didn't thank Steward Tang yet. ”

Chen Wenshan has heard of this thing several times, it should be very precious, and he is thinking about when to get one. Now that it's free, there's no need to work hard.

"Thank you, Steward Tang. ”

The man signaled no, and said, "Hey, no, the old gentleman is not a bad person, I am just doing something to add to the cake." ”

......

Yao Jiu and Chen Wenshan had already left the private room, and the Tang steward sent the two to the outside of the Danwang Mansion and returned to the private room.

Steward Tang looked at the chair where Yao Jiu had been lying and fell into deep thought, the chair was very ordinary, there was nothing to see. The armrest on the chair, where Yao Jiu knocked on it, had a deep hole the size of a thumb, which made Steward Tang's eyes stare at him, "Sure enough, you are not an ordinary person." ”

The person who called the maid just now gently opened the door of the private room, and asked silently for a while: "Why does the landlord treat these two people so favorably, and go to entertain them personally." ”

Steward Tang turned around with his hands behind his back and looked at the man with a smile and said, "This master and apprentice, the apprentice is nothing, but the master is very unusual. That master looked too ordinary, and I couldn't find the shadow of a cultivator all over my body, and in my perception, he was like an ordinary person without any cultivation. Don't you think it's strange that there is a handsome young man who is still practicing behind him?"

"Just now, the two of us kept testing each other, and he responded without leaking, and the action and demeanor were not in a hurry as if everything was under control. ”

Steward Tang paused slightly, pointed to the chair where Yao Jiu had been lying and continued, "Look carefully. ”

The man looked in the direction of Steward Tang's finger, and just saw the small hole in the handrail, and he said in horror: "This is ......"

Steward Tang sighed, "That's right, it was left by the old gentleman." Although the material of this chair is ordinary, it is also sturdy. Being able to leave this hole without using cultivation under my nose, and let me see it afterwards, this old gentleman is not simple. That's kind of a warning to me!"

"Then, the landlord ......"

Steward Tang looked out of the door, his gaze seemed to penetrate the barrier of this Danwang Tower and fell on the entire Mingchuan City, "Judging from the handwriting that the old gentleman threw down for his apprentice, it is obvious that he loves this disciple very much, and the disciple who gave him the ring should have a good fate." ”

"This Chuancheng is now in an eventful season, and I don't know if such a person is good or bad? Go and find out, find out the origin of the old gentleman. ”

The man answered "yes" and withdrew.

Steward Tang was the only one left in the private room, and Steward Tang walked to the chair and sat down, rubbed the bridge of his nose with his fingers, and sighed: "I don't know if it's right or wrong for me to make this trip?"

......

Chen Wenshan held an oil-paper umbrella while looking at the ring on his finger and laughed stupidly.

"Master, this Tang steward is a good person. ”

Yao Jiu walked in front, "One ring will buy you, why is my Yao Jiu's disciple so worthless." ”

Chen Wenshan responded: "Master, you can't say that, people have such intentions. Chen Wenshan retracted his gaze, "By the way, Master, what were you two talking about just now?"

Yao Jiu stopped, looking at the light rain in the sky, Chen Wenshan also stopped, "We came just right, this Sichuan City has a good show." Do you want to be the one who watches the show, or do you want to go on stage and play tricks?"

Chen Wenshan understood what Yao Jiu meant after a little thought, his eyes flashed slightly, he understood that this was a grinding calendar, "Master likes to watch plays, so the apprentices will go up and play." If I don't look good, Master will have to help me take care of the stage. ”

Chen Wenshan's self-awareness is not accurate, he is not stupid.

Yao Jiu raised his old white eyebrows and said with a smile: "Okay, Master will help you play the drums." ”

Both laughed.

......

Chen Wenshan had this small broken pocket hanging from his waist, and when Yao Jiu saw it, he asked, "Apprentice, what is hanging on your waist?"

Chen Wenshan pointed to the small broken pocket, "Master, is this what you are talking about?"

"It was a money ribbon with ten taels of silver in it. ”

"Why don't you take it into the vows? ”

Yao Jiu had taught Chen Wenshan how to use the Na Ring before, and Chen Wenshan also had the strength of the first order of qi refining.

Chen Wenshan was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid of poverty, but I still feel more solid with the silver by my side." ”

Yao Jiu was obviously stunned, and then smiled helplessly: "You......"

The two were talking and laughing, and a figure suddenly rushed behind Chen Wenshan, hitting Chen Wenshan's arms.

"Oops. ”

Chen Wenshan was knocked back two steps, and his figure was knocked to the ground.

Chen Wenshan walked over and helped the figure up, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

The figure lowered his head and kept shaking his head, "It's okay, it's okay...... and then broke away from Chen Wen's shirt and walked away quickly.

Chen Wenshan scratched his head and wondered, why did this person look flustered.

Yao Jiu smiled and shook his head, Chen Wenshan suddenly came to his senses and touched his waist with his hand.

"Not good, my money. ”

Hurriedly said to Yao Jiu: "Master, wait for me in a while, I'll go and catch that little thief back." ”

After speaking, he chased in the direction of the figure.

Yao Jiu didn't stop it, but just followed behind Chen Wenshan, walking not fast, and landed firmly behind Chen Wenshan
