After taking the book, Li Xiuyuan turned around and left the garden. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
There is no point in continuing to spend time here, then Hua Gu is not here, and everything is better than seeing you in the evening.
Returning along the same road, I didn't encounter the fake nuns in the temple on the way.
When he returned to the vicinity of the previous meditation room, he saw that his two guards were still in the room, each holding a gorgeous woman.
But at this moment their sanity was restored, and the medicinal properties dissipated.
"Sure enough, women are the most powerful, better than any demons and monsters, what are you still doing with these two women, don't you still fall in love with them? Hurry up and get dressed and leave here with me. Li Xiuyuan walked in and said with a cold face.
"Great, big young master?"
The two guards were startled, but then they were suddenly ashamed, and then hurriedly pushed away the gorgeous woman in their arms, and got dressed with a red face.
"This son, we are in love with the two heroes, and the affection is lingering, how can you beat the mandarin duck and insult the innocence. A disheveled woman looked at Li Xiuyuan with a smile.
Li Xiuyuan said: "Insulting people's innocence? Are women like you still innocent, if you are really innocent and chaste women, I won't be a good mandarin duck, why don't you pack up your things, leave here, and give me two guards as concubines?"
The woman's face moved, and she smiled again, "It's a good time, how can we talk about marriage, since these two heroes are the guards around the son, then presumably our fate has ended, so let's separate, but our two sisters served the two heroes once, and we should always leave some silver taels to change clothes on the occasion of separation, you see, our plain clothes have been torn apart by the two heroes." ”
After speaking, he grabbed the tattered plain clothes next to him and showed it to a few people.
Li Xiuyuan asked, "How much do you want?"
"Fifty taels for one person is enough. The woman said.
A guard next to him exclaimed: "Didn't you say that you love me and are willing to be nice to me, why do you have to charge fifty taels so expensive, aren't you inlaid with gold?"
The woman chuckled: "Feelings also cost money, isn't it that this son wants to repay the debt? If the son doesn't give it, the sisters in the temple won't let the son leave, and when the time comes, we lose face and it doesn't matter, if it hurts the reputation of this son, then it's no wonder that the two of us are the same." ”
Li Xiuyuan's face was calm, and he took out a small ingot of gold from the ghost king's cloth bag and threw it on the couch: "Okay, just one hundred taels for you, don't want to show off right and wrong here." ”
"Childe is bold, welcome to come again next time, and you will be half price when the time comes. The other woman immediately picked up the gold and giggled.
"What else to see, let's go. Li Xiuyuan glared at the guard next to him and spoke.
The guard looked away from the gold with some pain, and then lowered his head and left with his eldest young master in shame.
"The rules are clear to you, this is your prostitution money, I just help you pay in advance, and the monthly money will be halved in the future until it is repaid, and another month's monthly money will be fined, this is to punish you for your poor guards, I told you not to go in the situation just now, and you were still hooked up. Li Xiuyuan said.
"Yes, young master. ”
The two guards responded with bitter faces.
Of course, they know the rules of the Li family, this kind of money is naturally calculated on their heads, if they are injured at work, not only will they not deduct the money, but they will add monthly money and get a reward.
After all, there is a reward and a punishment.
After leaving the Guanyin Temple, Li Xiuyuan did not go to Huaxian to hang out, but immediately returned to Qiao's house.
As soon as he arrived at Qiao's mansion, the old servant guarding the door said: "Li Gongzi, you are back, my master instructed the old slave that if he sees Li Gongzi coming back, he will invite Li Gongzi to the study for a gathering." ”
"Oh, yes, thank you for telling me, I know, I'm going to pay a visit to Master Joe. Li Xiuyuan bowed.
Li Gongzi was polite. ”
A smile appeared on the old servant's face, as if he didn't expect Li Xiuyuan to be so polite.
"You go back to rest, remember to wash the rouge gouache smell on your body, it smells a little uncomfortable. Li Xiuyuan turned to say again.
The guard answered, and then he went to Qiao's study.
The door of the study was open, but he saw that Master Qiao was covered with a white cloth on his head at the moment, and he seemed to be injured and bandaged, he stood with his hands in his hands at the moment, looking at a wall and was stunned, but Li Xiuyuan didn't notice it after he approached.
Li Xiuyuan followed his gaze, but saw that there was a picture of a dragon and horse hanging on the wall.
Master Qiao looked at this dragon horse diagram and lost his mind.
"Master Qiao, the late birth has arrived, I don't know what is the matter with the late birth of Master Qiao?" Li Xiuyuan said.
Suddenly.
Old Master Qiao came back to his senses, and he muttered, "Listen, Master Li." ”
"Huh?"
Li Xiuyuan listened, but he didn't hear any sound.
"Do you hear that?" asked Master Joe.
Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved, looking at the dragon horse picture, but saw that the dragon horse inside seemed to be overjoyed when he arrived, and was running in the painting, neighing.
"I heard it, it was Ryoma hissing. ”
"yes, the Ryoma in the painting is neighing excitedly. ”
Master Qiao turned around and said with a smile, "Li Gongzi is really a stranger, he is not surprised when he meets a dragon horse, and he even rode a dragon horse to leap out of the house last night, I don't know where he went, you see, after yesterday, this dragon horse picture is becoming more and more restless." ”
Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that he was seen by Master Qiao yesterday riding a dragon horse around the city.
"Li Gongzi does not need to be surprised, Zhang Sengqiu's dragon horse picture can be transformed into a live horse, I have known this for a long time, I have seen it when I was a child, but my Qiao family has this painting over the years, there is still a time to see the dragon horse so restless, it seems that there is no way to stay in the painting anymore, want to fly out of the painting, go outside to gallop, hehe, it seems that I met Li Gongzi last night, it identified Li Gongzi. ”
After speaking, Master Qiao took down the painting and looked at Li Xiuyuan and said: "I thought about it for a night yesterday, this painting has a relationship with Li Gongzi, I am also a scholar, I naturally know the beauty of adults, but this painting is the family heirloom of my Qiao family, if it is handed over to Li Gongzi for nothing, I will naturally be reluctant in my heart, so I want to make a deal with Li Gongzi with this painting." ”
Agree is to send a painting, yesterday's words were not sincere, and there was no intention to send a painting, but today's words are a bit cheesy, but they show sincerity.
I don't know what stimulated Master Qiao yesterday and changed his mind.
"Master Qiao doesn't know what kind of deal he wants to make with Wansheng?" Li Xiuyuan arched.
Master Qiao shook his head self-deprecatingly and said: "As a scholar, this word is really a bit difficult to say, but I still have to say this, I am willing to use this painting to exchange Li Gongzi for the peace of the house, and the life of the little woman." ”
"I have solved Miss Qiao's safety, but I don't know the word tranquility in the house, how to explain it?" Li Xiuyuan asked: "I see that the house of Master Qiao is peaceful day and night, and there is no bad omen." ”
Master Qiao said: "Li Gongzi is a strange person, he can communicate with ghosts and gods, how can some things in the house be hidden from Li Gongzi's ears and eyes, does Li Gongzi really not know that there are evil ghosts entrenched in my mansion and extortion?"
"There are evil spirits in your mansion?"
Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly, remembering the few powerful ghosts that appeared in Qiao's mansion last night.
Those few powerful ghosts who escaped should be the ghosts entrenched in Qiao's mansion.
It's also the ghost smell I smelled when I first entered Qiao's Mansion.
"It's some of my own reasons, attracting three evil ghosts, they haunt the house day and night, scaring people, tricking my wife and concubine, at the beginning of burning paper worship, incense and candles can also get a moment of peace, but after a few days these three ghosts have become more intense, I have been tossed these days tired and miserable, only Li Gongzi entered the house yesterday to stay, the three ghosts do not know why, have disappeared, not in the house. ”
"The ghost is leaving, this must have something to do with Li Gongzi, Li Gongzi also said before that you have the ability to subdue demons and eliminate ghosts, so can you completely exorcise your three ghosts for me, so that my mansion will not be disturbed by ghosts?"
"If Li Gongzi can help me save the life of the little woman and drive away the ghosts, I am willing to give this painting away. ”
Master Qiao picked up the painting, lowered it in front of Li Xiuyuan, and solemnly gave a salute.
Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly, and he secretly thought in his heart: This Master Qiao is indeed a smart person, and after seeing Ryoma recognize the master, he immediately changed his attention and sent him away with treasure paintings, in exchange for his daughter's life and the peace of the house.
Presumably, he was also worried that if it was too late, Ryoma really jumped out of the painting and ran away with him.
At that time, it will be a big loss, so now I want to be a favor.
"The elder gives, I don't dare to resign, since Master Qiao said so, I am willing to do my best for your mansion in my later life. ”
Li Xiuyuan did not refuse, but accepted the painting very solemnly.
Seeing this, Master Qiao immediately felt refreshed, and said with a smile: "Okay, good, I really didn't see the wrong person, Li Gongzi is really a gentleman with both talent and morality, and it is my greatest luck to be able to meet you." ”
Li Xiuyuan's sentence from the elder can be said to have given him enough face, making this transaction a worthy drunken affair, and he also respects him as an elder, so there will be a love in the future, if the elder has something to ask for in the future, the younger generation will naturally not refuse.
Otherwise, it will be immoral for the reader.
In this way, how can Master Qiao not be comfortable? Not only did he solve the two headaches in the house, but he also got a favor, and this painting was worth it.
"Master Joe's words are serious. ”
Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly: "But now without further ado, Wansheng has a way to save Miss Qiao, can Master Qiao take Wansheng to Miss Qiao's side to cast a spell to save people?"
"Li Gongzi, please. Master Qiao's eyes lit up, and he immediately said in a loud voice, quite excited.
