The ghost attendant shook his head when he heard Wang Zhengyou's words: "Even the surnames are different, how did you bring them together?" "This is a bad statement!" Wang Zhengyou's tone was very serious, "The surname can be changed, and there are no examples of changing the surname in order to avoid trouble!

The ghost waiter's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he sighed and said, "Forget it, if you really want to raise it, you can't do it, it's all at the door of the house, can you say a few words?"

Wang Zhengyou saw that the ghost waiter's mouth was relaxed, but his expression became more solemn, and his right hand stroked the military bag on his shoulder from time to time, knowing that he was still worried, so he learned his tone and said: "I said, it's all at the door of the house, can you relax a little?"

The ghost attendant nodded, did not speak, the two walked quickly to the hanging flower door of the young family's mansion, the ghost attendant gently knocked on the door knocker, and after two muffled knocks, a gentle voice came from inside the door:

"Where are the guests coming from?"

Wang Zhengyou and the ghost attendant glanced at each other, and the latter replied loudly: "The guest is from the north!"

The person inside the door stopped talking, and with a few clicks, the vermilion door slowly opened inward. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wang Zhengyou listened to the hoarse creak when the wooden door opened, and couldn't help but imagine that after the door opened, the ancient and mysterious aura unique to the Fang Shi lineage would come from inside the door, and they were greeted by a Taoist master with a long beard and hair, a wide robe and big sleeves, and a particularly fairy style.

But then Wang Zhengyou found that he was thinking too much, because standing behind the door was a modern person, to be precise, a middle-aged man in modern clothes, he was wearing a short-sleeved white shirt, he was very tall, with a back comb, his medium-length hair was black and shiny, and the image and temperament of the whole person were incompatible with the antique house behind him.

The ghost attendant and Wang Zhengyou didn't expect such a person to come out of the young family's mansion, and they all froze in place.

The middle-aged man saw the surprised looks of the two, pursed his lips and asked with a smile, "What's the matter with the two of you?

"No, uh, that's not what I meant," the ghost waiter said with an embarrassed expression waving his hand, "I just didn't expect ......"

"It's just that I didn't expect the descendants of Fang Shi's lineage to look like this?" the middle-aged man took over the conversation casually and said half-jokingly, "Do you think that Fang Shi should have long hair, wear a Taoist robe, hold a whisk in his hand, and speak mysteriously?"

The ghost attendant and Wang Zhengyou both thought so, and when they heard the ridicule of the middle-aged man, Wang Zhengyou touched his head embarrassedly, looked each other up and down, and laughed twice: "Hehe, you... It's really up to date. ”

"If you want to keep up with the times, you have to keep up with the times. The middle-aged man said, with a straight expression, arched his hand to the ghost servant and Wang Zhengyou, and made a "please" gesture sideways, "That's all for jokes, two distinguished guests, please come in." ”

The ghost attendant glanced at the middle-aged man, and had no intention of going in, but said, "You don't know what the purpose of our coming here is, where did the word "distinguished guest" come from?"

Wang Zhengyou didn't feel anything wrong after listening to the middle-aged man's words, and when he saw the ghost waiter's reaction, he couldn't help but secretly blame him for being overly nervous, we came to visit, you just asked me to say a few words, and as a result, such a sentence came up, isn't this more rude than me......

The middle-aged man smiled slightly: "Since you are from the north, you will be a distinguished guest." ”

He said this mysteriously, but it was very much in line with Fang Shi's words and deeds, but the ghost servant was already suspicious, how could he be perfunctory by these words? Still standing in place, looking at the middle-aged man without blinking, the middle-aged man saw that he was unmoved, and saw that his whole body was tense, and his right hand was subconsciously raised slightly, like a full bow, and he couldn't help laughing: "The two distinguished guests have already arrived at the door of my young family, why don't you relax? Although my young family has been retired for a long time, but the two distinguished guests have this bit of strength," Speaking of this, he smiled, and his tone revealed some conceit, "There are still some." ”

The ghost attendant listened to the middle-aged man's words, his right hand slowly lowered to his waist, and asked seemingly casually: "Since your family has retired, why is the word 'Shao Fu' still written on the plaque at the door?"

"This distinguished guest, why bother to try it more?" the middle-aged man looked unhappy, "The two of you will come to visit, which means that you are the people who know about the world, can't you still see that the plaque is just a cover to hide people's ears?" ”

Because "Shao" and "Shao" are the same syllable, so Wang Zhengyou always thought it was "Wuzhen Shao Family", and he didn't feel anything unusual when he saw the word "Shao Fu", because of this, he didn't know that the ghost waiter asked this out of temptation, and after listening to the middle-aged man's answer, the monk of the second zhang was puzzled.

When the ghost attendant heard the middle-aged man say this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person relaxed, and said to the middle-aged man apologetically: "Don't blame the master, don't hide it, the two of us are being hunted down." ”

"It's okay," the middle-aged man waved his hand and said softly, "It's normal for you to be vigilant when you encounter this situation, but ......" said with a sharp turn, "I'll tell you the truth, your temptation is meaningless." ”

The ghost attendant was stunned for a moment, and then asked rhetorically, "What does the master mean?"

The middle-aged man waved his hand again and said, "Hey, the two of you are distinguished guests, don't keep calling the master of the house, it's too angry." ”

The ghost attendant arched his hand and changed his words and asked, "Then, dare to ask Mr. Gao's name?"

"My name is Shaojing, the respect of the ancestors of the heavens, and the time is also the time of fortune and fate. ”

Good guy, this explanation is really enough for Wen Zou, this time he has changed from a scholar to a scribe, if he doesn't have any culture, he will definitely not understand, Wang Zhengyou secretly said, well, I almost didn't understand.

After Shao Jing reported his name, he looked at the ghost servant and Wang Zhengyou, his eyes paused on Wang Zhengyou's right hand and waist, and then asked with a smile: "This must be the famous 'fast knife hand' on the rivers and lakes - Wang Zhengyou Wang Zhuangshi, right?"

Wang Zhengyou was taken aback for a moment, and blurted out, "How do you see it?"

"Without him, the art of observing words and colors," Shao Jingshi smiled slightly, with a slight ridicule in his tone, "Just like Wang Zhuangshi said, it's just a little trick to deceive people." ”

As soon as these words came out, Rao is Wang Zhengyou has always been rude, and he couldn't help but blush, he knew in his heart that the words that he despised the Shao family outside the door just now were all heard by this Mr. Shao, and this person's ear power is not ordinary!

Shao Jingshi didn't plan to delve into this topic, his eyes turned to the ghost waiter, and he muttered: "This is ......"

The ghost attendant immediately reported his pseudonym: "My name is Li Ming." ”

Shao Jingshi looked at the sky as if he hadn't heard it, and after a while, he looked down at the ghost waiter, and the corners of his mouth were raised, revealing a meaningful smile.

"You're an orphan of the Millennial Change, aren't you?"

......！

The ghost waiter's complexion changed suddenly, the muscles of his whole body tensed instantly, his right hand pressed the bag on his shoulder, his waist bowed slightly, and a bow was instantly full again.

Seeing his strange appearance, Shao Jingshi raised his hands, pressed down gently, and said softly: "Calm down, young man, I don't mean anything else." ”

When the ghost attendant stared at Shao Jing closely, it seemed that he wanted to see something on his face, the latter looked calm, and Wang Zhengyou looked at the two of them suspiciously, he had not grasped the gist of the conversation since just now.

For a while, none of the three people spoke, and the atmosphere became a little strange, and after a while, the ghost attendant took the lead in breaking the silence.

"How do you know?" said the ghost attendant's tone was unusually cold.

"Without him, it's still the art of observing words and colors. Shao Jingshi smiled mysteriously, and once again turned sideways and made a "please" gesture, "Two distinguished guests, let's not talk at the door, please inside." ”

The ghost attendant and Wang Zhengyou glanced at each other, and then looked inside the door when they crossed Shaojing, but the shadow wall behind the door blocked the sight of the two. Although the ghost servant was suspicious of Shao Jingshi, he still had many questions that needed to be answered, so he took the lead in following Shao Jingshi and walked towards the door, and Wang Zhengyou followed closely when he saw this.

The three of them bypassed the shadow wall from the side and came to the front yard, Wang Zhengyou secretly wondered in his heart, it doesn't make sense, how is the front of the shadow wall bare, there is no pattern? He took a closer look, and saw that the lines on it were very simple, obviously with a long history, and he could vaguely see that the pattern was the interior of an ancient palace, and there were three people, one was the emperor, one looked like a witch wish, and one was ...... Is this phantom really human?

Although Wang Zhengyou does not understand the structure of traditional buildings, he also knows that the patterns of the general shadow wall are on the front, and the carved patterns are nothing more than auspicious elements such as spirit animals, but why is the pattern of this shadow wall on the back?

Wang Zhengyou patted the ghost waiter's shoulder, and pouted in the direction of the shadow wall, the ghost waiter glanced at it, his reaction was very flat, and he seemed to be very disapproving, he winked at Wang Zhengyou, tilted his head, and motioned for Wang Zhengyou to look forward.

Looking ahead? Wang Zhengyou was stunned for a moment, isn't there the main hall of the Shao family's mansion in front of him? What is there to see? He stared at the main hall in confusion for a long time, and saw the flying eaves from the half-open wooden door all the way, and then he saw something strange -- the pattern carved on the tile* at the front end of the dripping eaves above the main hall seemed to be somewhat familiar, and then he looked closely and found that the pattern was exactly the same as the one on the shadow wall.

(Wadang, commonly known as tile head, the outermost tile of the eaves, with a pattern at the front end, is a component of the ancient building, which plays the role of protecting the wooden cornices and beautifying the roof contours.) ）

When Wang Zhengyou glanced at Shao Jing, who was walking in front, he secretly sighed in his heart, the Shao family in Wuzhen deserved to be the descendants of the Fangshi lineage, and even the decoration of the house was so unexpected.
