Sky Fox Chapter 37 Eight Kings and Four Little Ghosts
Speaking of the matter of making the lower link according to the upper link, it is really not a difficult thing for Qu Fan, you must know that when Qu Fan first came to this Polaris Domain, in addition to teaching him the written language of this world, the Immortal Ding God also came with knowledge that ordinary people in this world could not understand.
Along the way, Qu Fan was full of confidence, and hummed a little song proudly, as if the 10,000 knife coins were already in his pocket. His appearance caused Bai Susu next to him to roll his eyes a lot, gritted his silver teeth, sharpened his knife in his heart, and wanted to kill him, but he couldn't see him like this. But that little song Bai Susu thought it was quite good, thinking about it, it seemed that he had never heard this song.
Every time Qu Fan saw Bai Susu roll his eyes at him, he showed a more happy and smug look, and he couldn't help but think of a sentence: I just like to see you grit your teeth at me, but you can't kill me. At this moment, Qu Fan liked this sentence very much.
In this way, the two of them came to the gate of the treasure building unhurriedly, and at this time it was already full of many people, talking to each other, pointing and pointing around a topic, that is, the first half of the couplets hung out of the treasure building.
The upper link is: the head of the eight kings of Qin Se and Pipa.
Qu Fan pulled Bai Susu into the crowd and did not attract the attention of many people, because everyone's attention was in this pair at this moment.
Or discuss, or bow your head and meditate, wanting to come up with this couplet and get this 10,000 knife coins.
When Qu Fan saw this pair, his expression began to become strange.
"This ...... It can't be so coincidental, this word is clearly italics!" Qu Fan muttered to himself in his heart, "The boss of the Treasure Building is also from the earth across the star field!"
Seeing this familiar word, he couldn't help but be like this, and even felt a little excited in his heart, thinking about whether to ask the owner of this treasure building if he was from the earth. But soon Qu Fan calmed down, the other party's situation was not clear at all, and if he wanted to ask, he had to understand some things first.
As soon as Bai Susu saw this pair, she thought of the words in the cave under the cliff where she encountered the ghostly laughing wolf, which were similar to the Shanglian font hanging in front of the door of this treasure building, and should belong to the same font.
"This guy should know the words on it!" Bai Susu thought to himself.
At the same time, in the crowd in front of the Treasure Building, there was a man with a rough voice, who said to a man in a dark blue robe who was about forty years old and was standing opposite the crowd: "Shopkeeper Liu, I don't know any of the words on the Shanglian that you hung out in the Treasure Building, could it be that you hung out this Shanglian on purpose to entertain us!"
This big man is named Qu Jiang, although this Qu Jiang has a strong body and a rough voice, but he has a family history and is literate. He heard that Zhenbao Lou had recently put out a pair of upper couplets, and as long as he made the lower couplets, he could get 10,000 knife coins, and he was really moved in his heart, so he came to give it a try. When I saw the words on this couplet, I found that I didn't know any of them. He felt that the strokes of the characters on it were strange, completely different from the strokes of the characters he knew, which made him think that the treasure building hung up this link was deliberately grandiose and attracted people's attention.
As soon as Qu Jiang's words came out, many people in the crowd immediately began to echo, "Yes, Shopkeeper Liu, is it really as Qu Shao said, you are deliberately entertaining everyone by hanging out this Shanglian in this treasure building!"
"How dare you entertain everyone!" The man who was called the shopkeeper looked calm and calm, "You don't know each other, someone will always know!"
In fact, the shopkeeper Liu didn't know the words on the upper link, when his owner asked him to hang out this upper link, he had the same idea in his heart, and secretly worried that the owner would anger everyone who came to the next link. However, the owner's unwavering look, he reluctantly did so. He has been under a lot of pressure these days, and his calm appearance is all pretended, and at this moment, he really hopes that someone with insight will associate this as soon as possible.
Qu Fan looked at the actions of this group of people, and secretly slandered in his heart: "If you can recognize the words on this Shanglian, it would be strange!" Qu Fan took the 10,000 knife coins.
The corresponding lower link of this upper link should be: the four little ghosts of the ghosts have their own stomachs.
Qu Fan quickly thought of this couplet, because Qu Fan had seen this couplet on Earth, and he couldn't remember where it came from.
So, Qu Fan pulled Bai Susu out of the crowd, came to the shopkeeper Liu, and said, "I have already thought of this link!"
The crowd's eyes suddenly lit up, and they praised in their hearts: "This woman looks like a fairy!" Seeing Qu Fan holding this woman's slender jade hand, many people couldn't help but envy Qu Fanyan's blessing.
"Oh?" Shopkeeper Liu was overjoyed, but then he thought that there were a few people like Qu Fan who had said this before, and they had already thought of the next link, but after bringing it to the inner hall, the next link he said was not at all a bull's head and a horse's mouth.
Therefore, the shopkeeper Liu discussed with his proprietor a starvation countermeasure, that is, a desk was placed on the right side of the door, and a pen and some paper were placed on the desk, if someone said that he had come up with a couplet, let him write it on the desk first, so that he could not only distinguish whether the person who came had come up with the couplet, but also send away those who boasted of coming up with the couplet in advance.
Shopkeeper Liu said to Qu Fan: "Then please write it out here and let me confirm it." Shopkeeper Liu pointed to the pen and paper on the desk.
Qu Fan stepped forward and picked up a pen and wrote a "魑!" on a piece of paper Shopkeeper Liu saw the surprise and hurriedly said: "Two troubles, please come with me to the inner hall to talk." ”
The shopkeeper clearly remembered the instructions of the owner, but if anyone wrote a font similar to the previous couplet, he should immediately take it to the inner hall to narrate. Shopkeeper Liu didn't dare to slack off, quickly put away the piece of paper on which Qu Fan wrote the word "魑", and politely beckoned Qu Fan and Bai Susu to go inside the door.
"Did that boy really come up with the next link?" said one of the people in the crowd in surprise.
"Look at the appearance of the shopkeeper Liu, there is a good chance that the boy has figured it out!" the other member of the crowd responded.
Qu Jiang watched Qu Fan, Bai Susu, and the shopkeeper Liu enter the door, and said dissatisfiedly: "This Liu steward is too stingy, I didn't even see the words written on the paper, so I hurriedly put it away!"
"That's it!" many people echoed, expressing dissatisfaction with Shopkeeper Liu's approach, and at the same time curious about the words written by Qu Fan on the paper.
Shopkeeper Liu led Qu Fan and Bai Susu up to the third floor of the Treasure Building, came to the door of a room, and knocked on the door hurriedly.
After a while, the door was opened, and it was a middle-aged man with a fat body and a wrinkled face.
When he saw Qu Fan and Bai Susu behind the shopkeeper Liu, he asked, "Who are these two?" Although he had guessed in his heart that Qu Fan and Bai Susu were here to couple, he still showed a casual look on his face.
Shopkeeper Liu did not answer immediately, but took out the piece of paper with Qu Fan written "魑" from his hand and handed it forward.
"Look, boss!" shopkeeper Liu couldn't hide his excitement.
"Huh?" The middle-aged man, who was called the proprietor by Shopkeeper Liu, suddenly kept his eyes open, his eyes glared at the boss, and he exclaimed in his heart: "It's like! It's too similar! No! It's exactly the same!"
At that moment, he hurriedly instructed the shopkeeper Liu: "Hurry up and make a pot of good tea and send it to my study, I want to have a detailed discussion with this son and this fairy, by the way, don't let anyone bother without my summons!"
"Okay, owner!" shopkeeper Liu took the order and took the door with him.
The middle-aged man warmly beckoned Qu Fan and Bai Susu to sit down on a coffee table, and he sat down on the other side. This coffee table is round in shape, dark red in color, and seems to have a good smell of light fragrance.
The middle-aged man introduced himself: "Under the surname Zhang Mingqi, dare to ask the two noble surnames?"
Qu Fan said: "My name is Guo Han, and her name is Huang Ying." We are cousins. Qu Fan didn't plan to tell the middle-aged man his and Bai Susu's real names.
Since Qu Fan saw this Zhang Qi, he always felt in his heart that this person hung out the upper link, and led people to the lower link, whether it was not a good intention, or there was another purpose.
Although Qu Fan is not afraid in his heart, it is not wrong to be vigilant, and being careful can make a ship of ten thousand years.
"Childe is talented, he came up with this coupling at a young age, Zhang admires it!" Zhang Qi praised.
Qu Fan smiled and did not answer.
Zhang Qi said again: "The tired boy will write out all this couplet." As he spoke, he got up, Qu Fan got up and said, "Hmm." ”
Coming to the desk, Zhang Qi spread out a piece of paper and handed a pen to Qu Fan. Qu Fan took it, and then wrote on the paper: The four little ghosts are given to their stomachs.
As soon as Qu Fan finished writing, Zhang Qi's eyes lit up, and he couldn't stop being excited: "That's right, that's right!"
Qu Fan handed the pen to Zhang Qi and said, "Boss Zhang, can you give us the 10,000 knife coins?"
Zhang Qi took the pen and looked at him, he didn't expect Qu Fan to be so direct, and as soon as he finished writing the next link, he mentioned the matter of 10,000 knife coins, and he didn't give himself a chance to put out more information at all.
At this time, the shopkeeper Liu pushed the door in, holding a pot of fragrant tea in his hand, walked to the coffee table, and put it on it.
Zhang Qi said: "Shopkeeper Liu, go to the account room and get 10,000 knife coins." ”
Shopkeeper Liu was puzzled, the conversation was over so quickly, didn't he want to talk in detail?
Zhang Qi said to Qu Fan: "You two might as well finish tasting this pot of tea." ”
Qu Fan said: "Tea is good tea, although it is fragrant, but our time is very tight!
Zhang Qipi smiled and said: "Since this is the case, then it depends on the son!"
Shopkeeper Liu was very efficient, and it didn't take long for him to push the door in with a big bag, walk to the coffee table, and put the big bag on the coffee table.
"The owner asked for 10,000 dollars. ”
"Hmm. After Zhang Qi nodded, he said to Qu Fan: "Guo Gongzi, please click." ”
Qu Fan opened the bag as he said, and it was full of golden light, which almost blinded Qu Fan's eyes.
The so-called knife coin turned out to be a miniature version of a steel knife, about an inch long and half an inch wide.
Qu Fan lifted the big bag and said, "Boss Zhang, shopkeeper Liu, say goodbye!" Pulling Bai Susu and walking out the door.
Zhang Qi said: "Farewell!"
After Qu Fan and Bai Susu came out of the room for a while, Shopkeeper Liu closed them again, came to Zhang Qi and said, "Boss, just let them go?"
"Hmph!" Zhang Qi's tone was cold, "Do you think Zhang's knife coin is so easy to take?"
Shopkeeper Liu asked, "What does the owner mean?"
Zhang Qi said: "Go and arrange for ten secret realm monks to follow them and secretly arrest them back!"
Shopkeeper Liu's tone was simple and neat: "Yes!" After Shopkeeper Liu went out, Zhang Qi said to himself: "Since I met the creation of my Zhang, how can I miss it!"
Zhang Qi knew how important Qu Fan was to him, because not long ago he inadvertently discovered a hidden cave in this Qingshui County, and he immediately told his father, that is, the deputy county magistrate of this Qingshui County. Zhang Qi took Zhang Wei back to the cave mansion again, and Zhang Wei was sure at a glance that this was a cave mansion where masters lived in seclusion and practiced. The stone walls of the cave are engraved with many characters that the two of them can't understand, and Zhang Wei speculates that this may be a great opportunity.
Although there are many words engraved on the stone wall in this cave may be a great opportunity, but the two of them can't understand it, so they can only watch dryly, go out of the cave, close the stone door, the two of them are deeply regretful, but they are helpless.
At this moment, Zhang Qi saw two lines of large characters carved on both sides of the stone gate of this cave. It is impressive: the head of the eight kings of Qin Se and Pipa, and the four little ghosts have their own stomachs.
Zhang Qi had an idea, and wrote down one of the lines, that is, "the head of the eight kings of Qin Se and Pipa", and after returning to the treasure building, he hung up this line of words as an upper couplet, and used money as a bait to lure people to the lower couplet. As long as he can match the next couplet word for word, he is the person he is looking for, and now the person he is looking for has appeared in front of him, how can he let it go.
Zhang Qi originally tried his attitude, but he thought that this world would be so mysterious.
