Early summer arrived.

Luodu is full of willow green peach blossoms, the fragrance of flowers is permeated in the city, the wind rises in the east of Luodu, the fragrance passes through the west of Luodu, the flow of people on the cross street is still bustling, but there is no group of bald market rangers, it is said that they are all practicing crutches at home.

The butterfly garden is full of green grass and barrenness.

Su Ziang and Chu Tian circled back and forth in the butterfly garden a few times, and now, they are the new owners of the butterfly garden!

Half a month ago, after the Hu Ren case was solved, Chen Bufan was ordered to return to Jinwuweizhong, and the Jingzhao Mansion was rewarded for meritorious deeds, when Shaoyin Liu Xichu asked Su Ziang what he wanted.

Su Ziang made a request, he didn't want any rewards, he just wanted to buy the butterfly garden as a house.

Liu Xichu looked stunned and persuaded: "The butterfly garden is a famous ghost house, a fierce place, it will hinder the owner's luck, it has not been inhabited for more than a hundred years, not to mention that dozens of people have just died in the Yang Mansion, and the anger is too heavy......"

"Lord Liu and relieved, Senior Brother Chu and I are Taoist priests of the Taihua School, and we have countless magic weapons that can catch ghosts and demons. Su Ziang smiled gently, with a hint of mystery, and said: "In the past, there was a Tianji Xiushi who told my fortune, and he was lucky enough to cover his head, and he was not immersed in all evils. ”

Liu Xichu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "Haha, the official forgot that the two adults were born in Taihua Immortal Mountain, and the ghosts and yin things naturally dare not get close. ”

Under Tian Wenlin's arrangement, three days ago, the butterfly garden was sold to Su Ziang at a price of 3,000 taels of silver, and the deed procedures were completed in duplicate and stamped with the seal of Jingzhao Mansion.

The butterfly garden is about the size of two peach blossom towns, with a radius of thousands of zhang.

The main building in the garden is a hill, a small lake, a large garden, the original pavilion houses are all built in front of the hill according to the mountain, sitting in the north and facing south, a piece of sunshine.

The hill covers about a quarter of the butterfly garden, and the mountains are lined with pines and cypresses, overgrown with weeds and gloomy light.

Su Ziang wielded the Xue Chen sword alone to cut thorns in the forest, and carefully checked everywhere, and found several precious trees in the forest, including two Xuanyuan cypress dozens of zhang high, four precious grimace yellow rosewood, and one or two kinds of trees that were not described in the "Six Realms Foreign Body Record".

At first glance, these trees are the beloved things of the previous owners, but now the trunks are wrapped with green vines, stained with spider silk and bird droppings, and are hidden among the pines and cypresses.

"Whew".

Xue Chen's sword light flashed, and a branch fell in response to the sword, Su Ziang picked up a branch and smelled it, the tree was heavy, and there was a pleasant fragrance from the broken place, and the grimace pattern was precious and natural.

"Yes, it is indeed the royal tribute with a grimace yellow rosewood, but now the famous wood is hidden in the dust, and I need Su Ziang to rescue you. Su Ziang patted the grimace Huanghuali wood, and carried the Xue Chen sword down the hill.

Grimace yellow rosewood is explained in the "Six Realms Foreign Matter Record", its wood is not rotten for thousands of years, the taste is fragrant and pleasant, there are various grimace markings in the wood grain, and it can be made into daily necessities to avoid evil spirits, and the price of inch wood can be deducted from gold, and it is a tribute for the royal family.

These grimace yellow rosewood mixed on the hill, most of them are because the butterfly garden is too famous, and a certain owner wants to move to suppress the evil in the early stage, and now the tree is dead, which makes people embarrassed.

"Senior Brother Chu, it's gone, it's gone. ”

Chu Tian was wielding the Qinglang Sword to practice ball skills, Shui Luanzi had already refined the traces of the spiritual consciousness of Ji Changming of the Qinglang Sword, he saw Su Ziang coming out of the mountain like a gray monkey, he immediately put away his sword and stood up, and asked with a smile: "Senior Brother Su, what's wrong?"

"There are four grimace yellow rosewood trees on this hill, cut off a trunk and sell it, and three thousand taels of silver will be returned, how much silver are these four worth?"

"Ah, what is a grimace yellow rosewood, why have you never heard of it in the next place?"

"A kind of growth is very slow, this kind of wood does not rot for thousands of years, the palace is dedicated to the tribute wood, ordinary people can't see it, only in the "Six Realms of Foreign Objects" record, it is also a good material for sacrificing wood magic weapons. ”

"There are such precious trees on the hill, how lucky are we?" Chu Tian asked in surprise: "This "Six Realms Foreign Objects Record" is a book, can Senior Brother Su borrow it for the next reading?"

"People in the world are superstitious about ghosts and gods, this butterfly garden is too famous, ordinary people dare not come in, there are few monks in Luodu, and high-level monks will not drill in a waste garden, let's pick up a cheap. Su Ziang explained slightly, and said: "The Six Realms Foreign Objects Record is a book, and I will copy it for Senior Brother Chu to read when I am free." ”

"Okay, are we still wandering around this garden?"

"To see if there is anything special in the garden and the small lake, unexpected surprise. ”

The garden is quite large, overgrown with weeds, overgrown with all kinds of wild flowers, the most precious is only a few peonies and hostel trees of various colors, and the garden is full of large and small pits, and it is thought that this garden has been excavated and washed by countless people.

The water of the small lake is actually living water, along a small ditch, through a ruins of the butterfly garden, and slowly flows to the outside of the garden.

"Not far from the park, there is a deep pool of about the same size as the butterfly garden, it is said that it is unfathomable, and several major water systems in Luodu can circulate, the cold water of the pool is pressing, it is the hottest summer, and no one dares to go down to the pool to play in the water......" Chu Tianqiang has heard of Boji, and the allusions recorded in Luodu are like a few family treasures, when Qing Yao was wandering around Luodu, he was a guide before exiting the chapter.

Su Ziang asked, "This deep pool is so weird, what is its name?"

"Zhenlongtan. Chu Tianjie said: "It is said that there is a 10,000-year-old dragon suppressed in this deep pool, and sometimes it will manifest on stormy nights and make the sound of a dragon's groan. ”

"How pitiful is it to be locked up for 10,000 years? When I Su Ziang came to the Heavenly Realm, I will release it from the pool and let it fly in the nine skies again. Su Ziang thought of his mother Zheng and sister Su Ziqing, who may still be imprisoned in the prison, and immediately felt a feeling.

"After the two of us came to Luodu, we have been running around to solve cases in the past two months, and our cultivation has been delayed a lot, when will we be able to enlighten and ask God. Chu Tian sighed.

"Senior Brother Chu, don't worry. Su Ziang said with a smile: "Senior Brother Xia said that for monks, the most important thing is the wealth and fortune weapon, we have a butterfly garden as a foothold now, we can gather people, improve all kinds of living conditions, and then practice quietly." ”

"It's too difficult to practice when you're in trouble. Chu Tiandao: "Only now do I understand why monks have to cultivate in the deep mountains and rivers, in Luodu, there are too many temptations, everything has to deal with people, it is difficult to practice in meditation. ”

Su Ziang said: "If you have sufficient financial support, you can also get twice the result with half the effort if you cultivate in Luodu, such as getting a large amount of Gathering Spirit Jade." ”

"This kind of artifact is too expensive, and ordinary monks don't even think about it. Chu Tian said: "It's better for the two of us to be serious and practice bit by bit, which is more reliable." ”

"Senior Brother Chu, how big the heart is, how big the heaven and earth are, when the two of us were on Houshi Peak in the past, a piece of spirit stone had to be calculated for a long time, how could you ever dare to think about mending the heavenly pill?

"That's true. Chu Tian's eyes lit up, and he suddenly remembered that he was following the rules, but he was not as broad as Su Ziang's heart, so he said: "Senior Brother Su is indeed broad-minded, dare to think and dare to do, and he is ashamed of himself." ”

"I used to be quite timid, but after experiencing several lives and deaths, I realized that there is no big deal in life except death, and there is no need to be afraid of everything. Su Ziang's thoughts extended and said: "When I was in the Infernal Sea, I always thought that I would never see the light of day in my life, and I didn't want to come out alive. ”

Chu Tiandao: "I just want to simply cultivate the Tao and strive to ask the heavens for immortality, I don't want to taste these experiences one by one." ”

"Senior Brother Chu, as long as you know about the pineapple wood in the mountain, you can't let Liuqi know. Su Ziang instructed: "If he knew, he would definitely shout to cut down all the trees and exchange them for silver and drink flower wine to ......."

A large dart team came from the ancient road, went straight to the Luodu Deyang Gate, all the way to the horse's hooves, the flags on the dart car fluttered, the wooden wheels on both sides rattled on the ground, rattled, rattled, the car was obviously carrying heavy objects.

Wu Liuqi and Yao Zhongtian happened to be on duty in front of Deyang Gate today, and waved their hands to stop them.

"Stop, stop, the official is based on the road, and the identity is documented?"

"The two military masters, Xiaomin Zhu Zhengxiong is polite. A young dart master rode on a big horse, did not dismount, pointed to a dart flag on the car, and laughed: "Don't you recognize the dart car of the Golden Sword Dart Bureau?"

"Wu Liuqi, this is the dart car of the Golden Sword Dart Bureau. Zhang Dahai, the captain on duty at the city gate, rushed over and said with a smile: "Release it." ”

"The two military masters just went on an errand, right?" Zhu Zhengxiong glanced at Wu Liuqi out of the corner of his eyes, a playful smile flashed in his eyes, and he shouted: "The brothers are gone and have entered the city." ”

A playful smile angered Wu Liuqi, he and Su Ziang entered Luodu together, Su Ziang and Chu Tian were promoted and made a fortune, Chu Tian was mixed with the Qinglang sword, but he continued to guard the gate at Deyang Gate, and now even a dart master dares to make fun of him......

"Smack".

A horse chopping knife slashed on the dart chariot gang, murderous awe-inspiring, frightened to pull the cart and horses "Bang, Bang," shouted, Wu Liuqi jumped to the side of the dart car, yelled: "All dismount, the official has been inspected by the road guide, the identity document, can enter the city." ”

"This is a person from the Golden Sword and Dart Bureau, who is famous all over the world, and has been escorting officials and silver into Luodu for various counties. Zhang Dahai frowned, and hurriedly came over to persuade: "Wu Liuqi, let Zhu Dart Master and them enter the city." ”

"Captain Zhang. Wu Liuqi looked at Zhu Dart, who was still riding on a horse, and said: "The duty of the city gate guards is to inspect all the personnel who enter Luodu from other places, and everyone needs to be inspected by the inspector to guide the road and the identity document, does Captain Zhang want to change the regulations?"

This sentence is too heavy, in Luodu, the rules are as big as the sky, and if a lieutenant wants to change the rules of the imperial court, he is looking for death.

Zhang Dahai's face changed, and he said helplessly to Zhu Dartmaster: "Where is the responsibility, the caravans and personnel entering Luodu from other places must be inspected by the inspector according to the road guide, identity documents, and Zhu Dart Master will dismount and inspect according to the rules." ”

"The brothers dismounted, took out the official certificate, and gave the identity document to this martial master for inspection. Zhu Dart Master is a person who understands the wind and rudder, and quickly jumped off the flower horse and put on a smiling face.

After a cup of tea, the inspection was completed, and the convoy was all let into the city, and Zhang Dahai also left with a black face.

Yao Zhongtian said with a smile: "What kind of bull temper is Senior Brother Wu playing?"

"It doesn't matter what kind of golden knife or kitchen knife he has, if he wants to put it in front of me, he can't do it. ”

"You bull temper, you offended Captain Zhang today, and you will be tired to death in the future. Shen Zhongtian said with a smile.

"I'm not afraid of him, I became a lieutenant in ten years. Wu Liuqi said: "Su Ziang and Chu Tian have been mixed with the colonel in two months, and they have just bought a butterfly garden and become a small rich man." ”

Yao Tianzhong smiled and said, "How about we go and let Senior Brother Su treat you tonight?"

"Tomorrow, tomorrow we will not be on duty, let's go to the butterfly garden to find them. ”
