Chapter 37: The Eastern Star

...... Another protagonist is here!

Suzhou Thorn Mansion, two teenagers sat in the hall, the older one was about twenty years old, frowning, couldn't help but sigh, the younger one was seventeen or eighteen years old, fair-skinned, handsome and delicate. But his demeanor is out-of-tant, his demeanor is detached, and his eyebrows and eyes are sly.

The two are the sons of Suzhou Thorn Shi Cui Lai, the older one is the eldest son, named Cui Dongshi, and the younger one is the second son, named Cui Dongxing. The two of them are not brothers, they are both romantic people, and when they see a good-looking woman, they want to take it for themselves, regardless of whether they are married or unmarried, whose wife and daughter, they will hook up when they fall in love, and they are really cowardly. For the sake of it, Cui Lai wiped the butts of these two sons, especially the second Cui Dongxing, Cui Lai loved and hated him, and loved him to the core, hated and hated so much that he gritted his teeth, he couldn't fight, scolded and scolded, but it seemed that Cui Lai was a son, Cui Dongxing was Lao Tzu, and the two were transferred. Fortunately, the two brothers never have to be strong, they all rely on their own charm and ability, as the so-called "gentleman is lustful, and he takes it in the right way", so the two not only have a good reputation, but also get the name of "drunk girl", "drunk" takes the homonym of "Cui", and takes the meaning of intoxication and addiction to women. Among the two, the younger brother Cui Dongxing is even better, this son is not only witty and sophistry, can speak and guess, and is very pleasing to women, but also has outstanding talents and good skills, so the woman he likes basically has not missed.

Why is Cui Dongshi worried? This has to start from yesterday: it turned out that yesterday Cui Dongshi went to visit the imperial historian Zhang Yue (Zhang Yue has a mansion in Suzhou), Cui Dongshi originally did not like Zhang Yue as a person, and did not want to go, but his father was entangled in temporary official business, so he had to go to visit the doctor for his father.

I don't know why, since the last court debate, Zhang Yue put forward the proposal to turn things around (let Du Rushan supervise the great history), when he returned to the house, he felt extremely uncomfortable, dizzy and nauseated, and the house doctor saw that his pulse was normal, and there were no symptoms such as wind and cold, I really don't know what kind of illness he was guilty of, Zhang Yue felt that Suzhou had a warm climate, the scenery should be long, and it was suitable for recuperation, so he asked the emperor for leave and returned to Suzhou to recuperate.

Cui Dongshi arrived at Zhang Yue's house, Zhang Yue asked the prostitute to roll up the curtain and beckoned Cui Dongshi into the room. Cui Dongshi bowed and conveyed his father's greetings. Zhang Yue was very happy and asked him to sit down and talk. At that time, there were two beautiful prostitutes waiting by him. They sprinkled the peeled cherries in golden bowls with cheese. Zhang Yue asked a prostitute in a blue silk coat to bring a bowl to Cui Dongshi to eat. Cui Dongshi saw that this prostitute had eyebrows like fine willows, phoenix eyes, face like peach blossoms, and a variety of charms, and he couldn't help himself in his heart, no wonder he was a veteran of the love field, but at this time, he pretended to be tender and ashamed, and always refused to eat the cherry. Zhang Yue asked the blue-clothed prostitute to scoop a spoonful and put it to his mouth, Cui Dongshi looked at the blue-clothed prostitute with burning eyes when he ate, and the prostitute smiled in return. When leaving, Zhang Yue asked the blue-clothed prostitute to send Cui Dongshi out of the yard. At this time, Cui Dongshi turned around and saw that the prostitute stretched out two fingers, turned his palm three more times, and then pointed to the small mirror on his chest and said, "Remember!"

After Cui Dongshi went home, he didn't think about tea and dinner, and his soul was not left, it was only less than a day, and he couldn't bear to see the blue-clothed prostitute, and he really couldn't guess the meaning of her actions when he left, so he found his younger brother and asked him to give him an idea.

Although Cui Dongshi is two years older than his younger brother Cui Dongxing, his skill in guessing a woman's mind is not worse than that of his younger brother, so he always asks Cui Dongxing to answer problems when he encounters them.

Cui Dongxing listened to the beginning of the matter, and said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this? Cui Dongshi didn't believe it, and asked the woman how to explain the dumb riddle when she left. Cui Dongxing said: "What's so difficult about this? Stretching out two fingers, it means that there are ten prostitutes in Zhang Yue's mansion, and he is from the second courtyard. Turning her palm three times, it was fifteen fingers, which corresponded to the number of fifteen days, and she pointed to the small mirror on her chest to mean that the moon was as round as a mirror on fifteen. Brother, congratulations! This woman is asking you for a 15-night tryst!"

Cui Dongshi couldn't help but be overjoyed, but then turned from joy to worry, and said to Cui Dongxing: "Brother, Zhang Yue's family has a fierce dog, guarding the door of the prostitute, but how is it good?" Cui Dongxing said contemptuously: "What's so difficult about this, in three days it will be fifteen, and within three days, I will definitely kill it!" Cui Dongshi will be suspicious, the dog is the dog of Caozhou Menghai, alert as a god, fierce as a tiger, ordinary martial arts people do not dare to go forward at all, it is said that there is a first-class master who fell in love with Zhang Yue, who was bitten to death by this fierce dog when he went to the mansion for a tryst at night. That night, Cui Dongxing left empty-handed, and came back about an hour later to tell his brother, "The dog has been killed!"

Cui Dongshi threw himself to the ground for the five-body body that his younger brother admired. On the night of the fifteenth, Cui Dongshi put on a tights, climbed over more than a dozen walls, entered the courtyard where the prostitutes lived, and stopped at the door of the second courtyard. The door was not closed, and the light was dimly lit, except that the prostitute sat there sighing, as if expecting something. She just took off the jade earrings and washed off the red powder on her face, the jade is not as delicate as her, and the pearls are not as crystal clear as her. By this time, the guards had all slept, and there was silence all around. Cui Dongshi slowly lifted the curtain and walked into the room. The prostitute stared at it for a long time, recognized Cui Dongshi, and then jumped out of bed, took Cui Dongshi's hand and said: "I know that you are very enlightened, and you must be able to guess what I mean, so I will gesture with you, but that fierce dog, how did you kill it?"

The prostitute said to Cui Dongshi: "The slave family was originally a solid family and lived in the north, but the master here relied on his power and forced the slave family to be his domestic prostitute." The slave family could not seek death, so they had to live in secret. Although his face was smeared with grease and powder, his heart was very unhappy. Even though I eat with jade chopsticks, burn incense on the golden stove, set up a cloud screen in the house, wear silk and satin every day, cover the bed with embroidered quilts, and often wear pearls and jade to sleep, these are not what I yearn for, I just feel like I am wearing shackles. If your brother's wish can be fulfilled, he will die and he will not regret it. Please let me be your slave, and serve you willingly, but I don't know what you want?"

When Cui Dongshi saw this prostitute, he was willing to risk anything for her, even if it was stealing someone from the mansion of Zhang Yue, a first-class official. But he couldn't do it with his own ability, so he didn't agree at the time, and when he returned home, he begged his younger brother to help rescue the prostitute. Cui Dongxing's tryst with his brother was supposed to be a play on the spot, and he counted it after playing, but he didn't know that his brother was really moved this time, after all, the brotherhood was deep, and he couldn't stand his brother's hard work, so he had to agree.

Cui Dongxing carried the prostitute on his back that night, climbed over more than a dozen high walls and sent it to Cui Dongshi's room, Cui Dongxing saw that the prostitute was really beautiful, and before leaving, he touched her thighs and breasts a few times, and said with a smile: "Brother, this girl feels smooth, and the hard work of being a younger brother is high, how about enjoying a night's sleep?" The prostitute was flushed and couldn't make a sound, Cui Dongshi scolded with a smile: "Little whore, you find another one, don't get in the way here, just get out of the way!" Cui Dongxing laughed and left.

After Cui Lai learned about this, he was furious, he couldn't wipe his ass clean this time, but he couldn't help the two little ancestors, he only felt that his head was as big as a fight, as if a catastrophe was about to come, and he couldn't live in panic all day, burning incense and worshipping Buddha at home all day long, praying that Zhang Yue would not find out. But the two brothers are used to seeing their father's cowardice, and they don't take it seriously, and they are still messing around among the women as usual every day, but Cui Dongshi is now guarding a prostitute and a woman, and he only feels that he hates to see each other late, and hates the long day and short night.

said that Zhang Yue was here, and when it was dawn, the house found that there was one less prostitute (this prostitute was Zhang Yue's favorite), and found that the dog guarding the door had been killed. Zhang Yue was horrified in his heart, and thought: "The doors and courtyard walls of my house have always been deep and tight, and the doors are also locked very tightly. It looks like she flew out, leaving no trace, it must have been a knight with high martial arts who took her away. Don't make any more noise, that will only invite disaster in vain. ”

Although there was no movement on Zhang Yue's side, Cui Lai was still frightened and panicked. After a few days like this, an obscene-looking old Taoist suddenly came, holding a Buddha dust handle in his hand, a few hairs on it, and a Taoist robe was stained with oil.

The housekeeper saw this obscene old man and went straight to the house, but he was a man who asked for food, and ordered the family to take a few coins of silver and wanted to send him away. Lao Dao held a piece of peach blossom cake in his left hand, and said with a mouth full of cake powder: "Do you want me to eat?" Seeing that this old man was funny, the family joked: "The Taoist is still a master of Taoism, and he has been preaching and teaching scriptures." The old man stroked his palms and praised: "Know the goods, know the goods!" Quickly put your master, the eldest master, the eldest master, the eldest master, the young master, the young grandmother...... Call it out, listen to me preach to them" At that moment, I called the titles of many family members in a row, and almost called all the eighteen generations of Cui Lai's ancestors. When the family saw that he was covered in stains, and that he was obscene, tangled, and gibberish, they thought, "Where did such a crazy old man come from?" The housekeeper made a look, and then the two housekeepers came over and grabbed the left and right ribs of the old road and dragged them out, and the old man said: "What is this for? Isn't it to preach?" After speaking, his shoulders shook slightly, and the two housekeepers fell to both sides and slowly sat on the ground. It was as if someone was holding it and gently placing it on the ground.

It turned out that when Lao Dao's shoulders shook, the two of them only felt a strong push in their chests, and their bodies involuntarily floated out, and when they moved away, the force of the side push disappeared suddenly, turning into a soft falling force, and when the buttocks hit the ground, the falling force also disappeared immediately, just like being held and gently placed on the ground. The two family members were at a loss, thinking that they had been cast a demon spell by this old way, and they never dared to touch the old way's body after getting up, and they were in a dilemma for a while.

The housekeeper saw that the two of them were standing there like fools, and scolded: "Eat dry rice, you went to the kiln last night? Which girl has narrowly turned into a soft-footed crab?" While scolding to the old road to the side, the old road at this time has eaten the piece of peach blossom cake, see the housekeeper round dun dun is very fun, for a moment childlike heart, shouted: "You! turn over the heel bucket to see!" After speaking, the right hand waved slightly, the housekeeper only felt a strong force from the soles of the feet, the heart was excited, busy making a "jack pendant" to stabilize the plate, just a force under the feet, suddenly felt the power under the feet suddenly lost, and felt a strong force in the chest, in a panic the body leaned back, feet squatted down, the head and feet turned over, and sure enough, turned a somersault back.

The old man played very well, and said again and again: "Turn it again! Yes, that's it, good!" Many Ding guards in the house heard the sound and all came over to see the excitement, only to see a round dun dun figure in the air constantly turning somersaults, an old Taoist hand dancing, happily shouting loudly, just like a monkey on the street, everyone was shocked.

When the housekeeper was miserable, he only heard someone say aloud: "Daoist, please raise your noble hand, how about letting him down?" It was Suzhou Thorn Shi Cui who came, it turned out that Cui Lai heard the noise at the door of the house inside, shouting and shouting, but no one came to report to him, so he came out to see what happened (everyone saw that they had already forgotten about the report). When I came to the door, I saw an old Taoist with his hands waving constantly, shouting again and again, while his housekeeper was in a strong somersault, and he couldn't help but be horrified, Cui Lai's martial arts skills are not high, but his eyesight is not shallow, and he knew that this Taoist priest in front of him had a great background, so he hurriedly pleaded, and his tone was quite polite.

Lao Dao saw that Cui came out to talk, and it was not fun to play anymore, so he stopped, and the housekeeper's round face was covered with sweat, which was not tired, but scared. Cui Lai immediately welcomed the old Taoist into the main hall, presented tea and snacks, regarded as a guest, and the old Taoist was not polite, sat down with a big thorn, drank a cup of tea, and after eating a piece of dim sum, he said: "Call your second son!" Cui Lai saw that although the old Tao was unkempt, he was immortal and majestic, and he did not dare to slack off at the moment, and ordered someone to call Cui Dongxing.

Cui Dongxing's boss came to sit down opposite Lao Dao unwillingly, didn't look at Lao Dao, and asked Cui Lai: "Old immortal, why did you ask me to come?" Cui Lai had no way to take his second child, he didn't scold him, but he scolded his son for scolding himself, but he still treated him as a baby. "Little thing! There are outsiders here......" Cui Lai was angry and thought: In front of outsiders, will you die if you respect me a little?

Cui Dongxing was about to continue to trample on his father's dignity, when he suddenly heard a series of hilarious laughter burst out of Lao Dao's mouth ...... "hahahaha", and the more he laughed, the louder he became, and finally he stroked his stomach and laughed. The father and son looked at each other in amazement, and they really didn't know what he thought of so funny. Lao Dao laughed for a while, finally stopped, and said: "You kid has an appetite for Lao Tzu, but how do you know that he will not die when he is old?"

Cui Dongxing smiled: "I don't know when this old immortal will die, but I know one thing." "Which point?" asked Lao Dao curiously. "I know that the old immortal will definitely die behind you," Cui Dongxing said with a smile. "How can you see that?" Lao Dao asked again, "Because you're going to die now!" Cui Dongxing grinned, laughing across the coffee table, a move "There is a phoenix to perch", his right hand became a grab, to grab Lao Dao's throat, this grasp came suddenly, fast and abnormal. Lao Dao smiled: "Really?" I saw his mouth open, and a mouthful of tea turned into a straight line and shot towards Cui Dongxing's wrist, which hit the "Qu Ze Point" in his tiger's mouth impartially, and Cui Dongxing's entire right arm hung down at the moment. Cui Dongxing was taken aback, and hurriedly gathered his energy in his right hand, wanting to rush through the sealed "Quze Acupoint" with true qi, only to feel that the sealed place was like a thick wall, and it could be rushed away again? Thinking of this, I can't help but admire the kung fu of the old man, and I don't dare to be disrespectful in my words.

Lao Dao saw Cui Dongxing's hands moving around under the table, he already knew what he meant, and knew that he wanted to unlock the sealed acupoints by himself, so he smiled and said: "Don't bother, you kid, it won't help you to use your little effort for three days and three nights." Seeing Cui Dongxing's face frustrated, he sat there with his head down, and asked, "Do you want to learn kung fu from Lao Tzu?" "No!" Cui Dongxing said, "Why? Lao Tzu is not handsome in kung fu?" Lao Dao asked, "Your kung fu is handsome, but can you be handsome over a woman?" Cui Dongxing said shamelessly.

"I'm going to die soon, and I still want a woman, I really don't know whether to live or die!" said Lao Dao with a sarcastic face. "What? You want to kill me?" Cui Dongxing asked, thinking: If you don't learn your kung fu, will you kill people? And those who force others to learn their own kung fu at the cost of their lives? This old man is really strange! Then he thought again: There are strange and unreasonable people in this world, what if I don't learn kung fu from him, what if he is really angry and wants to kill me? I promised him first, and then I will choose the opportunity to escape, and it is not interesting to learn kung fu, how can I soak in the comfortable ...... of gentle country every day.

Lao Dao saw that his eyes kept rolling, and he never expected that he was comparing learning kung fu and hooking up with beautiful women, so he replied: "What am I going to do to kill you? Naturally, you want to kill you...... And you!" he said as he pointed at Cui Lai. "If you don't die, you have to kill it? Tell me who it is, and if there is a beautiful lady in his family? Oh...... Daughters can do too. Cui came to see his son, and really wanted to go over and pinch him to death now, but he didn't dare to scold him, because every time he scolded him, Cui Dongxing would pay him back with ten sentences. I had to whisper: "Good son, don't interrupt, and listen to the Taoist chief." Lao Dao smiled and said, "What good things have you and your brother done recently?" I'm afraid you don't know yet, that ...... That one...... People already know. "Zhang Yue, how did he know?" said the father and son in unison.

"Oh, he didn't know, but today I went out of my way to tell him, so he knew, ahem...... That's it. Lao Dao looked natural, and his face was as if he had done something for heaven and revenge. "Are you sick?" Cui Dongxing stood up from the chair with his right hand down, if it weren't for the fact that his right hand was still weak, he would want to pinch the old thing in front of him now.

"It's nothing, I just don't think you agree to learn kung fu from me if you don't tell him. Lao Dao was not angry, and said with a sinister face.

"Do you think that if you tell him, I will learn kung fu from you? You are forcing and begging, it must be that your kung fu is extremely bad! So you begged and begged, but you still couldn't find half a person to learn from you, and in desperation, you came up with such a despicable and vicious method. You are shameless! You are brazen......" These words were sprinkled, and the old way of kung fu was said to be nothing, and the old way of people and gods were angry, and when it came to the excitement, the eyebrows were raised, and the mouth was foaming, if scolding could scold people to death, at this moment the old way had already died ten times eight times.

"Oh, if you don't want to learn, you can do it, I never force people, I'll leave now, and your father and son drink slowly. After Lao Dao finished speaking, he stood up, patted his buttocks, raised his legs, and walked out of the door. Cui Lai was in a hurry, and hurriedly said, "Senior, please stay!", "What's the matter?" asked Lao Dao with squinted eyes. "Senior, as you said, Dongxing will be fine if you learn art with you?" asked Cui Lai with eager eyes.

Lao Dao sat back in the chair just now, straightened up, and his face was extremely grim. The two looked at Lao Dao, only to see that he had white eyebrows and white beard, sharp eyes, and a majestic look, which made people dare not look directly. I only heard him say in a deep voice: "Zhang Yue, I have a way to shut him up and make him dare not touch your house, but from now on, you can't climb his big tree." After speaking, he turned his head to look directly at Cui Lai and said: "You are very small, and you want to find a backer to make your career worry-free, but do you know the current situation? Ten years at most, five years at the least, the world will be in chaos, no matter who wins or loses, who will take care of you? You are all villains with lust for profit, Zhang Yue is! Du Rushan too! You steal his beloved prostitutes, they will kill you if they win, and if they lose, the emperor will kill you!"

Cui Lai had cold sweat streaming down his forehead, feeling that what the old Taoist said was to the point. I've been thinking about it lately, but although I thought of this ending, I couldn't think of a way to resolve it. So he hurriedly stood up and said to the ground: "The younger generation is dull, please also ask the seniors to show the way!" Old Dao stood up, put his hands behind his back, looked north with his eyes, and said loudly: "Zhongshu Ling Gu Siyuan, caring for the people of the society, selfless and upright, and being ordered in danger...... How can you be weak and isolated, you can rest assured to follow him. Your second son's bones are wonderful, his understanding is outstanding, and his skills are pure, I will teach him for three years, put him by Gu Siyuan's side, and he will definitely be able to take on heavy responsibilities, and when the time comes, he will ...... The Shi family kid is also back...... It's even better!"

"What did you say? What Shi family boy? Three years of study? It's too long, right? Why don't you personally guard Master Gu yourself? Is there a nunnery next to your Taoist temple? Are there any good-looking nuns?" Cui Dongxing asked a series of questions.

"I can't go out of the mountain, because we have an agreement that as soon as I get out of the mountain, I will lead to a terrifying old monster. Lao Dao answered only one question.

(...... The day Lao Dao came to Cui Lai's house happened to be the same day that Shi Tianyou came out of the wooden house....... )
