Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Silver Needle
Since the name of "vegetarian kitchen" spread, there have been more customers in Honglu's small shop, and Pu Luochen has to be busy until late every day to rest. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info After more than half a month of such days, although Pu Luochen has earned a lot of silver, his body is getting thinner and thinner. On this day, after Pu Luochen sent off the last customer, the sky had already darkened, and Pu Luochen closed the door of the store and prepared to close. These days are really too tired, as long as there are no customers in the store, the first thing Pu Luochen wants to do is to lie in bed and sleep beautifully.
Closing is a thing that a shopkeeper often does. However, if there are still guests in the inn after closing, such a thing is rare. After Pu Luochen closed the door of the store, as soon as he turned around, he saw that there was one more person in the store, who was sitting at the table and drinking tea leisurely. Pu Luochen recognized it at a glance that it was Shen Xinyi, so he opened his mouth and asked: "Miss Shen came here late at night, what are you doing?" Shen Xinyi glanced at Pu Luochen and said: "Pu Yunyang, this small shop was bought by this girl with money, this girl can come if she wants to, and leave if she wants to, what's in your way......?"
"Stop!" Shen Xinyi suddenly opened her mouth and stopped Pu Luochen.
Pu Luochen had no choice but to stop as he said.
"Pu Yunyang, this girl hasn't let you go yet, just stand there well!" Shen Xinyi said.
Pu Luochen knew that once he disobeyed the other party's instructions, he would definitely be humiliated by the other party, so he also stood there with interest, motionless. After Pu Luochen stood still, he heard Shen Xinyi say, "Come out!" As soon as the words fell, several blue-clothed girls rushed in from the back door of the small shop and appeared in front of Shen Xinyi together. Pu Luochen was slightly surprised, so he took a general look, and saw that the Ling'er girl was also among them. Shen Xinyi saw that everyone had already arrived, so she immediately said, "Everyone has already arrived, let's start discussing!" Ling'er and the others nodded yes. Seeing this, Pu Luochen only felt that he was a little redundant, so he said: "Miss Shen, if there is nothing to do, Pu will leave first." "No, as soon as the words came out, I heard Shen Xinyi say in a loud voice: "Pu Yunyang, don't go anywhere, just stay here for this girl!" Pu Luochen was stunned, and then said: "Miss Shen, I just heard you mention the word "discussion", so there must be something important to discuss. Pu is an outsider, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate to stay here, right?" Shen Xinyi said coldly: "Pu Yunyang, this girl taught you to stay, and she has her own reason to stay." You don't have to say much!" Pu Luochen saw that the other party was reluctant to say it clearly, and it was inconvenient for him to ask, so he had to choose to remain silent.
"Ling'er," Shen Xinyi turned her gaze to the Ling'er girl who came with her at this moment.
Ling'er stepped forward and asked, "What do you command, Senior Sister?"
Shen Xinyi said: "After being busy for so many days, I must have gained a lot. Senior sister just wants to hear what you have found, it's best not to miss anything. Ling'er turned her head to look at Pu Luochen, and then nodded yes.
I only heard Miss Ling'er say: "Tell Senior Sister, Ling'er has already led people to that Niangniang Mountain." That Niangniang Mountain...... There is indeed a big secret hidden. Shen Xinyi listened to this, smiled suddenly, and said: "Niangniang Mountain? The first time I heard this name, I thought that there was a Niangniang living in that mountain? Ling'er, what is that big secret?" Ling'er glanced at Pu Luochen and said, "Senior sister, there are headcatchers from the government here, and some things are inconvenient to say clearly!" Shen Xinyi smiled slightly and said, "Ling'er, you are too worried." The head catcher in front of us is our own person. ”
"Your own people?" Ling'er said suspiciously, if it is his own person, he must show some sincerity, if there is no sincerity, how can it be convincing?
Shen Xinyi said: "What Ling'er said also sounds reasonable. Then please show some sincerity to this Pu catcher, let us all see. As soon as Shen Xinyi's voice fell, the girls in blue led by Ling'er all turned their eyes to Pu Luochen, obviously, they valued that sincerity very much. Pu Luochen is not a stupid person, so he naturally understands the meaning of the word "sincerity". It is precisely because we understand that we must think twice before acting.
"Although the female disciples of Bixiu Palace have acted a little strangely, they have never done anything to harm the people. Come to think of it, what Shen Xinyi did this time is by no means a bad thing. Besides, if it weren't for the help of that Ling'er girl, I wouldn't have been able to get rid of Senior Sister Wei's pursuit, since the other party helped first, I should also try my best to help. When Pu Luochen thought of this, he said seriously: "Pu remembered that there is a cloud in "The Book of Rites: The Mean": The way of heaven is also the way of the sincere, and the way of the honest is also the way of the people." The meaning of this sentence is that sincerity is the way of heaven, and sincerity is the way of man. Since Pu is already a human being, the word sincerity is at ease in his heart. If the girls insist on taking a look at the word "sincerity" in Pu's heart, then Pu can only cut open the belly, take out the heart with the word sincerity written on it, and dedicate it to you. As soon as these words came out, Ling'er and the others couldn't help but vomit, obviously disgusted by what Pu Luochen said.
Shen Xinyi, who was on the side, also spat heavily on the ground, and said: "Pu Yunyang, I didn't expect you to say such a thing, it's really disgusting!" Pu Luochen was stunned for a moment and said: "Miss Shen, you have to take a look at Pu's sincerity, Pu can only take out this heart, otherwise, what else?" Shen Xinyi glared at Pu Luochen and asked: "Pu Yunyang, are you walking the rivers and lakes for the first time?" I don't know the meaning of the word "sincerity", won't this girl need to explain it to you herself?" Pu Luochen said in embarrassment: "Miss Shen, even if Pu Mou understands, what if Pu Mou is now, he has become a cook in a small shop, and he is always hunted down and killed, what sincerity can such a person show?" Shen Xinyi listened, a jade finger shook lightly in front of Pu Luochen's eyes, and then said: "Pu Yunyang, what you said is wrong." Sincerity, there is always there. Speaking of this, Shen Xinyi turned her head to the Ling'er girl beside her and said, "Ling'er, since the word sincerity came out of your mouth, what kind of sincerity do you think Pu Yunyang should show in order to convince us?" Ling'er said: "Tell Senior Sister, according to Ling'er's opinion, if Pu Yunyang wants to show sincerity, it is not difficult, but I don't know whether this Pu catcher is willing or reluctant." When Pu Luochen heard this, he immediately said: "Pu has already walked away from the Ghost Gate several times, and maybe, one day, he will return to the Ghost Gate again." A person who has died many times, what else can he be reluctant to do? As long as it is something that Pu can take out, Pu will definitely offer it with both hands!" Ling'er smiled slightly and said: "Don't talk too much, if you know what we want, I'm afraid it won't be so refreshing." Pu Luochen said disapplausively: "Miss Ling'er, there is only one thing that Pu Luochen can't take out now, and that is the stars in the sky." You won't ask Pu for the stars in the sky, right?" Ling'er smiled reluctantly and said, "Of course not. Pu Luochen said: "Since you are not asking for the stars in the sky, what else does Ling'er girl worry about? What do you want, just say it!" Ling'er said: "Pu Luochen, these words are from your mouth, don't regret it then!" Pu Luochen said: "Never regret it!"
"Okay!" Ling'er nodded with a smile on her face, then took out a thing from her sleeve, put it in front of Pu Luochen's eyes, and said, "Pu Yunyang, do you know what this is?"
Pu Luochen took a general look, and then said: "This thing is the silk silver needle that Pu is accustomed to. Ling'er nodded slightly and said, "Yes, this thing is indeed a silk silver needle." Ling'er heard that you used this thing to injure the people of our Bixiu Palace, I don't know if there is such a thing?" Pu Luochen's face sank, and he said: "If Miss Ling'er wants to ask Pu Mou, then Pu Mou will never complain!" Ling'er shook her head and said, "The surname Pu, you are too worried." Ling'er's move is not to ask you for the guilt, but to use this silver needle to ask you Pu Yunyang for something. When Pu Luochen heard this, a silver needle suddenly flew out of his sleeve, and immediately, he was caught between the palms of his hands by Pu Luochen. The technique was extremely fast, and no one on the side could see it clearly. After Pu Luochen clamped the silver needle, he put the silver needle in front of Ling'er girl, and said: "Ling'er girl, this silk silver needle is an extremely powerful hidden weapon, as thin as silk, dense as rain. If you want to learn this martial art, Pu can teach you. As soon as these words came out, everyone present couldn't help but be moved. People in the rivers and lakes know that the silk silver needle is one of the famous skills of the former head of the Shushan faction, Jianmei Daoren. The Sword Eyebrow Daoist only passed on this stunt to his eldest disciple Pu Yunyang. But anyone with a unique skill will not easily pass on his housekeeping skills to outsiders. However, Pu Luochen took the initiative to teach his housekeeping skills, which was really unexpected and showed the sincerity of his intentions. Even Ling'er, who has always been decisive, has become a little forward-looking and hesitant at this moment.
After a short silence, Shen Xinyi suddenly spoke: "Pu Yunyang, none of us understood what you said just now, can you say it again?" Pu Luochen said: "Since you didn't understand, then Pu Mou only had to say it out loud once." Saying that, Pu Luochen raised his voice and said: "If you want to learn the kung fu of silk silver needle, Pu can teach it to you!" Shen Xinyi was still a little unsure, so he immediately said: "Pu Yunyang, you must know that a gentleman's words are difficult to chase, and if you say something from your mouth, you must not easily regret it!" Pu Luochen frowned and said: "Miss Shen, since you and I are discussing important matters under the same roof, then between you and me, don't be so vague anymore." Shen Xinyi said: "Pu Yunyang, what do you mean by this?" Pu Luochen smiled, and then said: "Miss Shen, Miss Ling'er is holding a silk silver needle and asking Pu for something, even if Pu is stupid, you should always understand your intentions, right?" Shen Xinyi heard this, and unconsciously turned her gaze to Ling'er. Before the two could speak, they heard Pu Luochen speak: "Miss Shen, it's getting late today, and you and I also have important matters to discuss." Therefore, I also asked Miss Shen to give Pu a certain day, and when the time comes, Pu will definitely give the practice of the silk silver needle with both hands. I don't know what Miss Shen thinks?" Shen Xinyi listened, a little noncommittal. Seeing this, Ling'er on the side stepped forward and said, "Pu Yunyang, we'll give you a day!" Pu Luochen quickly replied: "Then Pu Mou thank you two!" Shen Xinyi saw that the matter of the silver needle had been discussed, so she asked about Niangniang Mountain again.
I only heard Shen Xinyi speak: "Ling'er, Pu Zhutou has already shown his sincerity, which shows that he is a credible person." Now, you should rest assured!" Ling'er said disapprerovingly: "Senior sister, what Ling'er sees now is just Pu Yunyang's empty words. Only after seeing the sincerity of what he said will Ling'er believe him. Shen Xinyi saw that Ling'er was still suspicious, and she was very unhappy in her heart, so she snorted heavily and said, "Ling'er, no matter what, this Pu Yunyang is also the person I brought with Shen Xinyi. You always doubt him like this, don't you believe in Senior Sister Ben?" Ling'er hurriedly said: "Ling'er doesn't dare! Please calm your anger!" Shen Xinyi said: "Ling'er, Pu Yunyang is an outsider after all, you doubt that he can, but you have to stop in moderation." Senior Sister Ben can't delay our big event because of your suspicions!" Ling'er replied repeatedly: "What Senior Sister said is very true, Ling'er knows her mistakes, Ling'er knows her mistakes......"
"Okay, since you know that you are wrong, then you can tell Senior Sister Ben the secret hidden in Niangniang Mountain. Let's also discuss countermeasures. Shen Xinyi said in a calm tone.
"Ling'er obeys!" Ling'er, who had been reprimanded, also became careless at this moment, and began to talk about the matter of Niangniang Mountain.
"Speaking of this Niangniang Mountain, it is really not simple, it is a sacred mountain in the minds of the local people, and there are many legends about this mountain. In addition, there are many scenery in the mountain, such as Niangniang Temple, Wangfu Cliff, Huangtian Tomb, Black Dragon Pond, Small Dragon Pond, etc., which are really beautiful. One of them, called "Stone Waterfall", was originally a wonder in the mountains, but two years ago, it became a forbidden place, and the person who ordered the blockade of "Stone Waterfall" was Ye Wushao, the county magistrate of Lingbao County!"
When Shen Xinyi heard this, she seemed to have an understanding and said: "Since it is a wonder in the mountains, it should be a feast for more people's eyes." Ye Wushao actually ordered it to be set as a forbidden place, and his behavior was so abnormal, then there was only one explanation, there must be a big secret hidden behind this wonder!"
Ling'er nodded and said, "What Senior Sister said is very true. On that day, Ling'er was ordered by her senior sister to quietly sneak into the mountains to investigate, and it was ashamed to say that her subordinates and others had investigated for more than a month before they learned that Ye Wushao and his gang forced some people to dig a tunnel in the stone waterfall, and many men would carry a basket of things in and out of the tunnel every day. Since we were all women, we couldn't blend in, so we didn't know much about what was going on in the tunnel. The subordinates and the others wanted to go back and tell the senior sister about it, but at this moment, Fluttershy discovered a new situation and taught me that it was not a small gain, and the subordinates and others stayed there for a little more time. With that, Ling'er glanced at one of the blue-clothed girls, and the blue-clothed girl stepped forward and said, "Tell Senior Sister, Fluttershy has something to say!" Shen Xinyi nodded slightly and said, "If you have something to say, just say it." ”
The blue-clothed girl named "Fluttershy" immediately said, "Tell my sister, Fluttershy found someone at Niangniang Mountain, who has a close relationship with Ye Wushao and his gang, and must know a lot about Niangniang Mountain. This person is Zhai Shuo, the richest man in Lingbao County!"
"Oh...... Is it him?" As soon as the word "he" was finished, Shen Xinyi turned her gaze to Pu Luochen and said, "Pu Yunyang, you used to be the guard of the Zhai Mansion, you should be familiar with that Zhai manager, right?"
Pu Luochen nodded and said, "Miss Shen is right. Pu did know that Mr. Zhai. Shen Xinyi asked, "What is the person of Mr. Zhai?" Pu Luochen said: "It's just a deceptive and famous thief." Shen Xinyi listened, smiled slightly, and said: "I didn't expect that even Pu Zhutou thought so, it seems that this person is definitely not a good person!" The blue-clothed girls around Shen Xinyi are all people who have followed Shen Xinyi for many years, and they know a lot about this senior sister's temperament. Whenever I hear Shen Xinyi say the words "definitely not good", it is often when Shen Xinyi is ready to take action. Therefore, as soon as Shen Xinyi finished speaking, Ling'er on the side spoke: "Senior sister, since we have found that Zhai Shuo, what should we do next, please make it clear to Senior Sister." Shen Xinyi said: "You all ask me what I do? Since Zhai Shuo has been found, then we should ask our Pu Zhutou to make the decision on the following matters." As soon as Shen Xinyi said this, Ling'er and the others' eyes quickly stayed on Pu Luochen's body.
