captured the lotus girl, released a dragonfly spirit, and took away a silver girl.

The ghosts and evil spirits entrenched in the Drunken Wind Building can be regarded as being exorcized.

But even so, Li Xiuyuan already felt that the forces behind the drunken wind building were not simple.

The top card, the account room is either a spirit or a ghost, which is already very revealing, the water in the capital is very deep, this sentence is true.

The worldly forces and ghosts and spirits are mixed together, helping each other and benefiting each other, who can settle down?

If you have the means to get rid of demons, you don't necessarily have worldly forces, and if you have great power, you don't have the ability to catch ghosts and eliminate demons...... In order to completely settle this matter, it is necessary to have both the way to heaven and the world.

In the entire capital that meets this condition, there may only be a protector mage.

However, he was also unable to do it alone, so he couldn't wait for Li Xiuyuan to enter Beijing and break the situation in the capital, so he did not hesitate to send the position of Yangzhou assassin.

"It's late at night, and today's matter of catching demons and ghosts is also over, you brothers should also say goodbye and go back to rest, a few of you must be tired, why don't you go to rest early, and we have a chance to get together again another day and have a good time?" Li Xiuyuan found after taking a turn in the drunken wind building

With the evil spirit, he didn't plan to stay here any longer, so he said goodbye.

Zhang Bangchang and Qian Jun and other scholars were still unsatisfied.

"Today's Brother Li to get rid of demons and catch ghosts really opened my eyes, there were Jinshi Zhong Kui catching ghosts in the previous dynasty, and Li Xiuyuan entered the Qinglou late at night to get rid of demons today, this is a rare anecdote, after this time, I will write a miscellaneous book, including such ghosts and spirits, strange people and strange things

。 Zhang Bangchang said with emotion.

He used to be a scholar who didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but since the more books he read, especially after he was admitted to the Jinshi and entered the Tongtian Pavilion and became a bachelor, he also believed in ghosts and spirits after being exposed to various things, but he never came into contact with them.

I didn't expect that the ghosts and spirits that I hadn't been in contact with on weekdays were actually hiding around me.

It's just that he lacks a pair of hellish eyes and can't see clearly.

"Brother Li is leaving? It's a pity, I've benefited a lot from being here today, I don't know where Brother Li lives? Qian Jun admired Li Xiuyuan very much, and felt that this was a character who could be deeply acquainted, so he immediately said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "I live in the Shunfeng Dart Bureau not far away, if a few brothers come to visit, they will definitely sweep the couch to greet them." ”

He also felt that it would be helpful for him to meet some scholars with good moral character in the capital, and he was not disgusted with this matter.

"Why does Brother Li live in the dart game? Is this in line with Brother Li's identity as a scholar, there are still a few quiet courtyards in my house, if Brother Li doesn't dislike it, you can borrow my house. Qian Jun said.

Although it is a very common thing for the ancients to invite others to live in the house for a long time, only distinguished guests, or friends, confidants, and relatives can enjoy such treatment.

When Qian Jun said this, it meant that he recognized Li Xiuyuan from the bottom of his heart.

Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "I understand Brother Qian's kindness, but there are a lot of people accompanying me, it is really not good to disturb the purity of your mansion, and I know the ability to eliminate demons and catch ghosts, I am afraid that it is easy to attract evil revenge, it is easy to deal with it alone, if it affects Brother Qian, it will be my fault."

。 ”

He didn't mean a lie, he deliberately let go of one of the doppelgangers of the Lotus Girl this time, maybe one day those demons of the Wutong Sect will hit the door.

In addition, their own downwind dart bureau has the protection of golden roosters, brute elephants and armor dart masters, and it is also relatively safe, since they can prevent ghosts and demons, they can also prevent splashy idlers, and even assassins, how to go to other people's residences?

"Brother Li is stupid when he thinks so thoughtfully. Qian Jun also said helplessly.

Hearing this, it's really not easy to invite this person.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and shouted again: "Where is the shopkeeper? ”

Because of the demonic thing, the drunken wind building is quiet, but the pedestrians outside have also detoured away, and all of a sudden it seems to be really a little scary, and even the candlelight has some infiltration.

Hearing the voice, the shopkeeper's Ci Niang walked out with an ugly face, and she said: "The wine money is ten taels, the pipa song of the little frost girl is ten taels, and the dance of the lotus girl is one hundred taels, a total of one hundred and twenty taels." ”

"Here you go. Although the price is expensive, Li Xiuyuan is happy to give this money.

Ci Niang took the silver and said quietly: "This Li Gongzi is a good method, when the rumors of the drunken wind building are spreading, where will there be business here in the future, I am afraid that it will be seized by the people of the six doors in a few days, and the previous one thousand taels plus this one hundred and twenty taels, less than one thousand two hundred and twenty taels."

The silver has destroyed the entire drunken wind building, and if I knew today, I wouldn't have defrauded you of the silver yesterday. ”

This more than 1,000 taels of silver is not enough for a day's income here, no wonder she is so uncomfortable.

"How can you blame me for ruining your business by playing tricks when this place is not clean? As the shopkeeper here, some people have a demonic aura, how can you not count it in your heart? And your methods of blackmailing other people's money are indeed despicable, shouldn't I punish you?" Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "No, you are evil

To point and instead accuse those who prevent evil, isn't this a reversal of right and wrong, and there is no distinction between black and white?"

Ci Niang said: "The money I earn doesn't fall into my own pocket, and the teaching workshop, the green building, the painting boat, which of these fireworks alleys and willows in the capital is clean?

"Everything has to have a head, I just happened to encounter yesterday's incident, if I met it in another place, the unlucky one is another Qinglou, that's all, but no matter where there are goblins, the result is the same. Li Xiu said from afar.

Without saying much to the shopkeeper, he bowed his hand to everyone and got up to leave.

After Li Xiuyuan left, Zhang Bangchang, who was still staying in the Drunken Wind Building, said curiously: "Brother Zhu, where is your friend Li Xiuyuan from and what is he doing in the capital? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?

That's right. ”

His curiosity about Li Xiuyuan made him can't help but inquire about the origin of this person.

Zhu Yu said, "Brother Li was met when I was taking the Xiucai exam in Guo Beicheng, he is a person from Guobei County, I heard that he was a child in his early tens, because he worshipped a Taoist as a teacher, and he delayed learning martial arts for several years before he came to the Xiucai exam

But occasionally there are shocking poems and essays, which are both admired and admired, and this time Brother Li came to the capital to report on his work. ”

"I heard Brother Li say that he had put down the rebellion of the King of Jiushan in the south, and was named the assassin of Yangzhou by the imperial court. ”

"What? The rebellion of the King of the Nine Mountains in the South was brought down by him?"

Zhang Bangchang was taken aback: "I heard that when the King of the Nine Mountains rebelled, there were more than 100,000 people, and there were also cults such as the White Lotus Sect and the Maitreya Sect to join, just a few months ago, there were still many people in the capital who fled from the south, and I heard that at that time, the King of the Nine Mountains had already conquered more than a dozen big cities and occupied them

Almost half of the Yangzhou boundary, I also asserted that day that if Yangzhou was defeated by the King of the Nine Mountains, there would be a foothold for the King of the Nine Mountains, Li Liangjinke, would really become a climate. ”

Some of the scholars in the capital do not care about state affairs, but some are very concerned about state affairs, often discussing government affairs and commenting on the world.

Zhang Bangchang is the latter.

He knows very well that the current national conditions of the Great Song Kingdom are dangerous, such as cooking oil in a blazing fire, and it is prosperous and prosperous, but in fact, there is a phase of decay everywhere, once Li Liangjin, the king of Jiushan, seizes Yangzhou, and then guards it for a year and a half, half of the Great Song Kingdom will be crumbling.

Because the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty are tired, if they can't exterminate the King of Nine Mountains in one go, they will definitely rise up in various places one after another, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Last year, I entered Beijing to do this for Brother Li, not to mention winning the title of champion with Brother Li's literary talent, but it is not a problem for a middle jinshi, but in order to suppress bandits, Brother Li abandoned his pen and followed Rong, only sought a position as a guerrilla general, scattered his family wealth, recruited village warriors, and led the troops to quell the chaos

I am particularly impressed by this. Zhu Yu said with emotion.

He felt that being a man like Li Xiuyuan was in vain.

"I really didn't expect this Brother Li to be so extraordinary, I really admire, admire. Qian Jun was also in awe when he heard it.

A scholar next to him said, "I have heard that this Li Xiuyuan has used some disgraceful means to seize the military power in the hands of several general soldiers who went to Yangzhou to support, and seized tens of thousands of soldiers

The suspicion of self-respect. ”

Zhang Bangchang smiled dumbly: "How can there be a capable person who is not jealous, only mediocre people will not be slandered, since ancient times, there are a few famous ministers and wise men who have not been slandered by villains? I don't believe in any music, rumors, only believe in my own eyes, this time the drunken wind building catches ghosts and destroys demons, Brother Li, he has clear grievances, there are."

There is a reason, there are not only tough methods, but also the goodness of the open side, and he did not bully others because he was the identity of Yangzhou Assassin, but he was blackmailed by the shopkeeper for a thousand taels of silver. ”

"If Brother Li is a self-respecting person who supports the army and commits the following crimes, then what are those bureaucrats that you and I have encountered in the imperial court? The gentleman is lenient with others and strict with himself, just because Brother Li put down the rebellion of the King of the Nine Mountains in just one month, this merit is enough to explain everything. ”

"In my opinion, in the future when the country is in danger, it must be this person who can turn the tide and support the building. ”

"Eh, Brother Zhang is brilliant and ambitious, so why bother to be arrogant. Qian Jun said.

Zhang Bangchang shook his hand and said with a smile, "My literary talent is only in poetry and songs, but I don't have the ability to lead the troops to quell the chaos, even if I have great ambitions, I also have more than enough strength but not enough, even if I am a two-rank jinshi, I entered Tongtian Pavilion as a bachelor, but after a few years, my qualifications are just a petty official, full."

The amount of it can be considered to benefit one party, but to turn the tide, it is absolutely impossible, and I still know my own ability. ”

"You must know that there is a kind of person in the world who is born to leave a name in history and attract the attention of the world, and Li Xiuyuan is this kind of person. ”

Qian Jun couldn't help but ponder when he heard this.

In retrospect, this Li Xiuyuan does have a special charm, self-confidence? No, is it the same temperament? No?

But it gives people the feeling that no matter what this person does, he is unwavering and will be able to succeed, and people can't help but look forward to what he will do next, and even very willing to let people be his foil.

Because he can be trusted to succeed in what he does.

This kind of charm is indescribable, but it is very pleasing to people, and it has a kind of resonance for like-minded people.

"That's it, let's not talk about it, the night is really deep, and I will say goodbye in the next, and after I go back, I will pick up the lamp and read at night, and write down today's strange things," Zhang Bangchang said with a smile, and then gave a salute and left first.

The crowd quickly said goodbye to each other in twos and threes, and the group soon dispersed.

But even though they're gone, something is still brewing.

Although it was at night, the matter of the drunken wind building and the demon had already spread in the capital, and the news first reached the ears of the six doors.

The Six Doors of the Capital is a special institution.

Subordinate to the emperor, he can rank in the court and politics at the top, and integrate into the rivers and lakes at the bottom.

The headhunters under his command are all over the world, and there are countless skilled and powerful people who serve the six doors, arrest wanted criminals, and exchange them for silver.

The most famous is the headcatcher Yan Chixia of the six provinces of Weizhen.

It's just that Yan Chixia got the opportunity and went to cultivate the Sword Immortal, so she abandoned the position of catching the head of the six doors and didn't do it.

But it is undeniable that among the six doors there is a dragon and a crouching tiger.

Some people say that there are no difficult things in the world that cannot be done through six doors.

Although it is an exaggeration, you can also see how much energy the six doors can have.

At this moment, as the matter of the demon in the drunken wind building in the capital reached the ears of the six doors, a special spy immediately sent the news back.

Then it was reported one by one, and finally fell into the hands of the chief catcher in charge of the security of the capital.

It is a matter known to the six gates that there are demons and evil in the capital, but as long as they do not come to the surface, the six doors will not care, but once something happens, the six gates will immediately come forward and send a head catcher with the ability to catch ghosts and eliminate demons to deal with it, and ensure that the security of the capital is as stable as Mount Tai, which is really impossible to deal with

They will go to the monks of Sangkokuji Temple.

So not long after the news spread, a group of strangely dressed people had already come outside the Drunken Wind Building, looking like the head catchers of the Jianghu rangers.

These people have different appearances, including young sons, middle-aged women, unattractive men, and even old men who are dying.

"The lotus essence of the drunken wind building has long been heard, she is practicing the method of collecting and replenishing the Danding faction, but because she is cautious enough on weekdays, she has not exposed any mistakes, so we don't care, after all, it is a person from the Wutong Sect, and if you catch it rashly, it will always make waves in the capital, which master is it today

Did you pick this lotus flower?"

A hunchbacked old man squinted and laughed.

"I found out, it was a scholar named Li Xiuyuan, who lived in Shunfeng Dart Bureau. A spy immediately sent the news.

There is no news in the capital that they can't find out, after all, it is to maintain the security of the imperial city, how can they not have some skills?

"Your Excellency. Do you want to take a look?" the old man tilted his head to look at a burly man next to him.

That was the chief catcher in charge of the security of the capital.
