After settling the matter of the Chu Cemetery, Li Xiuyuan can be regarded as a matter of concern. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

There is nothing to do in the heart, but it is rare to fall at ease, because the morning is too comfortable, it is a little reluctant to get up in bed, it seems that as long as you come together, there are always busy things to fall on yourself, only when you fall asleep, there are not so many trivial things.

But I think so, but it's not.

"Young master, you see, the paper clothes that were put in the copper basin yesterday are gone, but there is an extra red egg in the copper basin. ”

Du Chunhua walked in with a copper basin at this time.

But I saw that there were traces of lightning strikes on the copper basin, and there were some signs of melting, and it was even more charred and black, but in the middle of the copper basin, there was a huge red egg.

The eggs are faintly shining, and they are extraordinary.

"Huh?"

Li Xiuyuan immediately frowned and sat up from the bed, "Chunhua, bring it over and show me." ”

Du Chunhua brought the copper pot over.

Li Xiuyuan took a look, but saw that among the vermilion eggs, there was a faint shadow of a big rooster floating, and the appearance of that big rooster was exactly the same as the appearance of the ninety-nine roosters that had been transformed by the ghost-swallowing Lei Gong in the Chu Clan Cemetery yesterday.

"Ghost Swallowing Lei Gong left a rooster, what are you going to do?"

He was puzzled.

Ghost Devouring Lei Gong Ke had never mentioned this before, but he just asked himself to send him a piece of clothing, but now that the clothes were sent, he returned an egg.

Is this a return gift?

"Ghost Swallowing Lei Gong is the Thunder Gong in the sky, he is an orthodox god, it is impossible for such an existence to do meaningless things, just like that city god, he helped me at the beginning, just to win my favor and use me to do things for him, could it be that this Ghost Swallowing Lei Gong left this egg for this?"

Li Xiuyuan kept guessing in his heart.

But he didn't think it was like the situation in Chenghuang.

Because the move of the Ghost Devouring Lei Gong was not notified in advance.

"Now my senior uncle Mu Daoren should return to the division with the black tiger, if he is here, I can ask my senior uncle's opinion. Li Xiuyuan shook his head slightly.

How come the critical moment, the people around you will always disappear.

"Young master, is this egg weird, do you want the slave to throw it away?" Du Chunhua asked.

Li Xiuyuan said: "No, leave this egg and put it in the study, this thing may be useful in the future." ”

He thought about it, but he still didn't dispose of this egg at will, after all, it was left by Lei Gong, and if he lost it rashly, there was something wrong with it.

However, after he had the incident of the last city god, he also became a little wary of this ghost devouring Lei Gong, and he did not believe in ghosts and gods so easily.

"Yes, young master. ”

Du Chunhua answered and left with the copper basin, preparing to use this egg as an ornament and leave it in her young master's study.

"Young master, it seems that the hospital exam is going to be taken in a few days, and the young master hasn't studied so much these days, doesn't the young master need to prepare for the exam?"

Suddenly, in the bed, Fluttershy blushes out and reminds her.

"Exam?"

Li Xiuyuan said suddenly: "If you don't say it, I almost forgot, it seems that the day of the college exam is indeed coming soon, well, how many days are left?"

"It's not been a few days, it's only six or seven days. Fluttershy says.

"Six or seven days left?"

Li Xiuyuan looked at her with wide eyes: "Why is it going to be tested so soon." ”

Fluttershy pouted slightly, "It's so fast, this is a day that the government has set a long time ago, and the young master has been going out a lot these days, and he doesn't even think about it." ”

Li Xiuyuan smiled awkwardly: "It seems to be like this." ”

Thinking about it, although he came to Guo Beicheng early for a while, he was busy with other things, and only spent a small part of his time reviewing books.

"It seems that if you can't continue to sleep lazily today, you have to get up and study hard. Li Xiuyuan said busily.

This test is still very important.

The academy has tried to be a showman, and with the identity of a show, he can be regarded as a real reader, with many conveniences and privileges.

The identity of the child is still a little too low.

In ancient times when the class system was strict, Li Xiuyuan still understood the importance of this status very well.

Even if he is a natural saint, this is just a recognition by gods and ghosts, and other people in the world do not admit it, so in the eyes of ordinary people, he is just an ordinary scholar, as someone said, it is really ordinary.

"Get up quickly and go to the book with me. Li Xiuyuan urged.

"Got it. ”

Fluttershy responds coquettishly, looking delighted.

In the past few days, in order to cope with the college examination and show off his talent in the examination, he really did not go out of the door, and he did not step out of the second door.

However, there are also some gossip in the city that have been spreading, saying that there is a man-eating black tiger in the woods on the outskirts, Wang Tong, the head of the Chu family, and more than ten guards were all killed by the black tiger, and what Chu Tian, the second son of the Chu family, has retribution, was bitten by a poisonous snake, and now he is dying, and he is about to die, and the government is already recruiting hunters and preparing to go out of the city to hunt tigers.

The matter of a dozen lives was a very big thing in ancient times, but because this thing was done by a tiger, a big thing became a small thing.

There is no need to file a case, and there is no need to trace it, after all, there were already many scholars who had seen that scene with their own eyes, and any scholar could find a scholar to verify it, and there was nothing suspicious.

However, it is strange to say that Li Xiuyuan was also involved in this matter, but in the past few days, he has been studying with peace of mind, but he has not been asked by the official mission, which has saved him a lot of worry.

All in all, although this case is serious, the implication is very small, and the government only defines this case as a tiger hurting people, and only sends a reward for the black tiger, and then it is over.

As for the black tiger, it was naturally impossible to be hunted and killed by the surrounding hunters, because he had already left Guo Beicheng with the Mudao people.

But today.

There is a river dozens of miles away from Guobeicheng, which has no name, but is only a tributary of the Wujiang River.

There is a small town on the riverside, where people have been fishing for generations, and over time a fishing town has been formed, and merchants from all over the surrounding area come here to buy fish and sell it to various places.

An old fisherman in the fishing town, as usual, returned from fishing on the river, carrying a load of fish to the market to sell.

"Drink, old fish head, you can stand it today, where did you catch such a big mullet, I'm afraid it weighs dozens of pounds, such fish are rare." ”

A hawker who bought fish goods saw the old fisherman carrying a fish basket and a big black fish on his back, and immediately exclaimed, and hurriedly stopped him: "Old fish head, sell me this mullet, I will buy it at a premium of 20%, it just so happens that my daughter-in-law is going to give birth, I will buy this black fish and go back to stew soup to make up for her." ”

"Go, go, your daughter-in-law gave birth half a year ago, I don't sell this black fish, I'll keep it for myself." The old fish head said.

The peddler smiled and said cheekily: "Sancheng, how about I pay a premium of Sancheng, I happened to meet a person buying black fish in the past few days, and it is a waste for you to take it back to stew soup, it is better to sell me, and then use the money to buy something else, isn't it better?"

Although the old fisherman was old, he was not confused, and his eyes moved: "I have long known that there is a rich merchant who buys black fish here these days, if you pay a premium of fifty percent, I will sell you this black fish, otherwise I will give it to me." ”

"Look at the old fish head, you are the same as in the drama text, waiting for the price to sell. ”

"Hey, isn't that possible?" said the old fisherman.

The hawker underestimated it in his heart, and the premium was fifty percent, and there was still a profit, so he immediately gritted his teeth and said: "Cheng, the premium is fifty percent, go over there and weigh it." ”

"I don't feel at ease with your name, you have to use mine. The old fisherman said.

"Okay, okay, by your name. The peddler said.

Soon, the weight was appraised, and the old fisherman got a sum of money from selling the black fish, and went home in a good mood.

After the peddler bought the big black fish, he hurriedly took the black fish to the inn in the town, preparing to sell it exclusively to the rich merchant who came to the town a few days ago to buy the black fish.

By the time the hawkers arrived at the inn, there were already quite a few other fishmongers selling black fish here.

However, out of confidence in the black fish in his hand, he shouted loudly: "I have a hundred-year-old black fish, come and take a look." ”

"You just blow it, although your black fish is bigger, it will last for more than ten years, how can there be hundreds of years. ”

"Go and go, just know to brag, don't delay the business I am waiting for. ”

The nearby fishmonger said word by word.

But the hawker's words immediately attracted the attention of the rich merchant in the restaurant, and immediately a middle-aged man dressed in brocade clothes and full of wealth rushed out of the inn with a few guards and a few guards.

This middle-aged man is none other than the Chu master of the Chu family in Guo Beicheng.

"Buy my fish, my black fish is fresh, just caught. ”

"My black fish is big and fat, buy mine. ”

Nearby fishmongers immediately rushed over.

Master Chu immediately ordered the guards to stop these fishmongers, and then walked straight to the vendor and said, "How much do you sell this black fish for?"

"Ten taels, not a penny less......"

Before the peddler had finished speaking, a silver ingot was thrown over.

"Take this black fish away, go back to Guo Beicheng, remember what Master Ben told before, if you go out on a business trip, Master Ben will definitely not spare you. ”

Master Chu looked at the black fish seriously, and saw that there was a scale growing upside down on the neck of the black fish, so he immediately made sure that it was correct, and immediately shouted.

"Yes, sir. ”

The guards of the Chu family responded, took the black fish, and immediately rode away, heading straight to Guo Beicheng without delay or hesitation at all.

"There is a fishing town next to the Wujiang River that will catch a black fish in these days, this black fish is a hundred years old, and there is a reverse scale under the neck, and the blood of this black fish can save the heavens. ”

"My son must keep in mind, buy the black fish, immediately send someone Pegasus back to the city, remember not to delay on the way, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve great things, and Tian'er's life will not be saved. ”

At this time, Master Chu couldn't help but think of what his father had told him in a dream a few days ago.

After he got the dream, he didn't have a trace of suspicion, and immediately went to the fishing town to buy the black fish at a high price, and now the emperor finally lived up to his heart and bought this special black fish.

Watching the escort Pegasus leave, Master Chu's heart was slightly relieved.
