Chapter 2: Money into the Bank

"Alas, it seems that we can't go to this villa. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Xiao Ziyao had no choice but to retreat, preparing to go back to the inn for a night of rest and continue on the road."

Li Wan'er followed behind, and when she saw Xiao Ziyao's lack of energy, she was also disappointed in herself, and blamed herself for not being able to help Xiao Ziyao.

"Wait, two. When Xiao Ziyao and Li Wan'er went back, one person stopped them.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Ziyao noticed this person just now, and kept wandering around them, looking at him with sharp teeth, a tall and thin figure, and wearing brown-red clothes with the word 'Tian' printed on his back, thinking to himself Could this person be a disciple of the Natural Mountain Villa?

"I am Jin Qing, the disciple of the Feng Academy of Natural Mountain Villa, and I happened to be passing by just now and heard the conversation between the two. The man introduced himself, and a smile appeared inadvertently on the corner of his mouth, "You brothers and sisters want to enter our mountain villa to learn martial arts, but it's actually very simple. ”

Xiao Ziyao stood in front of him slightly, protecting Li Wan'er behind him, "This senior brother, what do you say?"

That's what it means, naturally. He rubbed his hands together in motion.

Xiao Ziyao understood at once, but he doubted Jin Qing's identity in his heart, and he could become a disciple of Natural Mountain Villa by giving money, which was really easy, so he asked suspiciously, "Is this really true?"

"It's true. Jin Qing was ordered by Feng Fengfeng, the second disciple of the Natural Villa, to look everywhere for people who were rich but didn't have much kung fu to participate in the competition, and now he saw Xiao Ziyao, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, handsome and extraordinary, and at first glance was a rich son, wandering around the ring, and finally had no choice but to leave, and immediately identified Xiao Ziyao's goal, "If you don't believe it, I will immediately take you to the registration office next to the ring to directly admit you." ”

Seeing Jin Qing's reaction, Xiao Ziyao believed that he was a disciple of the real Natural Villa, "No need, I believe in you, Senior Brother, we are worried about how to worship under the door of the Villa, if we can really have money to buy it, then it will naturally be better, what about the price?"

When Jin Qing heard this, he was happy in his heart, there are several people here, the second senior brother will teach himself a few tricks now, "It's easy to say in terms of price, how about 10,000 taels?"

10,000 taels is enough for ordinary farmers to live for ten years, so Li Wan'er was immediately unhappy, pulled Xiao Ziyao's clothes, and shook her head at him.

"Wan'er, what's wrong?" Xiao Ziyao asked Li Wan'er in a voice that Jin Qing couldn't hear.

"Brother Ziyao, although we got a lot of money from Taocun, 10,000 taels is too expensive, and we can't spend it indiscriminately if we have money. "Then I'll figure it out. ”

Jin Qing saw that Xiao Ziyao and Li Wan'er were whispering, and his heart was like a bucket of water hanging, could it be that they thought the price was too expensive, but the first few people all agreed, entering the natural mountain villa to learn martial arts is something that many people dream of, and it should be impossible for them not to agree.

Because the money is in the hands of Li Wan'er, Xiao Ziyao doesn't know how much money they have, but since Wan'er said that it is expensive, then cut some off, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he pretended to regret the loss very much, "Senior Brother Jin, 10,000 taels is too expensive, we can't afford it, so forget it." ”

After Xiao Ziyao finished speaking, he pulled up Liwan'er and was about to leave, as he expected, Jin Qing really called out to them, "The two of you stay, the price is negotiable." ”

"How much can I lose by that? Actually, my sister is learning martial arts alone, and I'm too old to learn martial arts. Xiao Ziyao still took Li Wan'er's hand and wanted to leave.

"Well, since there is only one person, how about five thousand taels?" Jin Qing cautiously asked Li Wan'er, he could see that the money was all up to this little girl, but the five thousand taels were originally the price of one person, and it was not a loss anyway.

"Five thousand taels..."Li Wan'er reluctantly accepted and nodded at Jin Qing.

"Then come with me, girl. Jin Qing took Li Wan'er and was about to go to the ring.

"Wait. Jin Qing was stopped by Xiao Ziyao, and his heart 'chuckled', could it be that he saw something at this time.

"Senior brother, that's the case, can I also follow into the villa. "If only Li Wan'er enters the villa alone, wouldn't the plan have failed to achieve its purpose, and Xiao Ziyao will have to sneak into the villa no matter what.

"No, I can't. When Jin Qing heard this, he refused sternly, thinking about what this person meant, one person's money and two people want to enter the villa.

"Senior brother, don't get me wrong, I don't study martial arts, it's just that I've been inseparable from my sister since I was a child, or you can see if you can help me figure out a way." "Xiao Ziyao looked like 'if you don't agree, we'll leave'.

Who knows what you will do when you enter the villa, Jin Qing felt that he had lost a lot, and when he met someone like the second senior brother, it was really because he was too eager to let the other party have the right to take the lead, so he was helpless against Xiao Ziyao's request.

But he thought about it again in a blink of an eye, and showed a treacherous smile, "Okay, add another thousand taels, and I will let you enter the villa as a handyman." ”

When Xiao Ziyao heard this, he didn't think about it, so he said to Jin Qing: "Deal." ”

"Then you both come with me. Jin Qing secretly rejoiced, the villa was originally going to recruit handymen, and now he made a lot of money.

Xiao Ziyao and Li Wan'er first went back to the inn to return the room, took their luggage and followed Jin Qing, and soon, Jin Qing took them to the registration office.

Xiao Ziyao saw that the disciples at the registration office were wearing brown clothes, which were lighter than the clothes worn by those at the gate of the town before, and the color of Jin Qing's clothes was the darkest brown he had seen so far, and he was a disciple of the master's house, he wondered if the brown color of the disciples of the Natural Mountain Villa was related to their status in the mountain villa, and the third brother's clothes were so dark, wouldn't it be of high status.

Sure enough, as soon as the person at the registration office saw Jin Qing, he immediately stepped forward to greet him, "Senior Brother Jin, you are here." ”

"Well, how's the ring. Jin Qing first asked about the situation in the ring.

"The situation is not very good, it seems that this year is not enough to recruit people, but the registration fee is quite a lot for one or two people. The disciple handed the recorded account book to Jin Qing to read.

Jin Qing pushed the account book away, and then said with a smile, "Since people are not satisfied, then I will recommend someone." ”

The disciple was stunned, Jin Qing didn't care about him, pointed at Li Wan'er and said, "It's that girl, accept her into the village." ”

"Senior Brother Jin, this is not good, the previous few people also..." "What's wrong, anyway, the people are not full yet, so you can casually arrange for her to go to the outer gate, no one will know, and I am here to help you complete the task, you may be able to ascend to the inner door soon." ”

Under Jin Qing's coercion and temptation, the disciple quickly gave in as he had done the previous times, and then said to Li Wan'er, "This girl, please write down your name, age, place of origin, and ......."

Li Wan'er was in a hurry, and when she was about to write down her name with a pen, Xiao Ziyao stretched out her hand to stop her, "Wan'er, it's better for my brother to help you write." ”

"Good. Li Wan'er didn't know why Xiao Ziyao did this, but she still obediently handed over her pen.

"It's written, I'll take a look, Tao Wan'er, fourteen years old, born in Taocun, Huazhou, both parents died at home, and there is an eldest brother Tao Dameng...... It's okay, give you a small sign and follow Senior Brother Jin. ”

Li Wan'er took the small card with the word "Tian", heavy, like iron, but like copper, with extraordinary casting skills, she thought that the natural villa is worthy of a famous sect, and even a small brand is so exquisite.

Xiao Ziyao and Li Wan'er followed Jin Qing in the direction of the natural mountain range, and after a while, they came to a small village at the foot of the mountain on the edge of the town.

"Alright, two, we're here. After Jin Qing received the money from Li Wan'er, his attitude became cold.

Xiao Ziyao looked at the Zhuangzi in front of him excitedly, and finally came here, as long as he could find the third brother in his memory, he could know his past, but he was soon poured cold water, and he saw a plaque hanging on the Zhuangzi, with four big characters written - Natural Xiaozhuang.

"This is not a natural villa!" Xiao Ziyao felt that he had been deceived, and looked at Jin Qing with a gloomy face, full of anger.

Jin Qing has also studied martial arts for about 20 years, and was stared at by Xiao Ziyao, but he instantly felt an invisible pressure.

Although Li Wan'er was also angry, she still comforted Xiao Ziyao, "Son... Brother Meng, don't be angry, listen to what he explains first. ”

"If you have something to say, this is indeed not a natural villa, but it also belongs to a natural villa, I talked to that disciple before, you also heard it, because it was bought with money, you can only enter the outer gate, and this natural village is for the outer disciples. Jin Qing was covered in cold sweat, and he felt that he couldn't underestimate that Tao Dameng.

"Then how can I go to the Natural Mountain Villa?" Xiao Ziyao also calmed down his anger, but still kept his face calm.

"Just become an inner disciple. Jin Qing looked at Xiao Ziyao's face and answered the question carefully, "Generally, it takes about ten years for an outer disciple to be promoted to an inner disciple, but completing the tasks assigned by the villa can shorten the time." ”

"Soon, the fastest year can be promoted to the inner disciple. Jin Qing wiped the sweat from his head.

"One year..."Xiao Ziyao couldn't wait that long, and motioned to Li Wan'er to return the sign in his hand to Jin Qing, "No, it's been too long, we won't enter this villa." ”

"No, the registration is all registered, and if you don't enter, you can't do it. Jin Qing refused, when it came to money, he was not afraid of anything, and asked Xiao Ziyao and them, "You two are very strange, you two are so anxious to enter which village, I now wonder if you want to mix into the spies of the villa?"

"Senior Brother Jin, of course not, it's just that my brother is a little anxious. Li Wan'er held the sign tightly in her hand, "I admire the martial arts of the Natural Mountain Villa very much. ”

"That's fine, then you go and get your clothes and room yourself. Jin Qing thought that he was a disciple of the head of the Natural Mountain Villa, this Tao Dameng was an ordinary person, why should he be afraid of him, he suddenly gained self-confidence, and returned to his original posture, "You just come with me." ”

"Brother Ziyao. Li Wan'er called Xiao Ziyao softly and shook her head at him, hoping that he could calm down, "Everything is easy to discuss." ”

Li Wan'er entered Xiaozhuang and lined up to get clothes and distribute rooms, while Jin Qing took Xiao Ziyao around the outside of Xiaozhuang for half a circle and came to the side door, "Don't say that I don't take care of you, just let you go to the bathhouse and be responsible for boiling hot water for everyone." ”

"Then thank you, Senior Brother Jin. Xiao Ziyao said with a smile on his face, after he was persuaded by Li Wan'er, he calmed down a lot, and thought that if he came in, he would naturally be able to think of many ways to go to the villa.

Jin Qing was very satisfied with Xiao Ziyao's reaction, "You just know, I can't arrange Xiaozhuang's chores independently, you wait for me, I'll go find Xiaozhuang's sundries supervisor to come over." ”

After Jin Qing left, Xiao Ziyao waited alone at the side door, but half an hour passed, and Jin Qing was still not seen.

"I think he went in that direction. Xiao Ziyao, who was impatient with waiting, decided to go to Jin Qing by himself, and by the way, he went to find Wan'er.

"Who are you?" Xiao Ziyao walked but got lost, and probably came to the location of the back hall, and was suddenly stopped.

Listening to the voice of a woman, Xiao Ziyao turned around again and looked, his lips were red and his eyebrows were pretty, and his figure was concave and convex, especially in the convex places, he was distracted.

"Hey, what about you?" waited for the woman to call and came back to his senses, he looked at the woman carefully, dark brown and green clothes, with a sword in her hand, and at a glance he knew that she was the inner disciple of the Natural Mountain Villa.

"This senior sister, I am a handyman who just arrived, and I am in charge of boiling water for the bathhouse, but I accidentally got lost. Xiao Ziyao wanted to have a good relationship with the inner disciples, and maybe he could sneak into the villa.

"Miscellaneous servants?" The woman looked Xiao Ziyao up and down, dressed in gorgeous clothes, her face was white and bright, she really didn't look like a miscellaneous worker, but like the son of a rich family.

"Yes, in... The little Tao Dameng, I don't know what to call my sister. Xiao Ziyao grovelled and disguised himself as a subordinate.

"Fang Quhe. The woman replied without emotion.

"That's Senior Sister Fang, what a good name, the twists and turns of the lotus pond. "It's the first time I've heard someone praise her name like this, and those who pursue her in the past will say something like 'bent lotus, it's really pity...' when they heard her name, and they couldn't help but have an impression of Xiao Ziyao.

"Senior Sister Fang, may I ask the new ......" Xiao Ziyao wanted to talk to Fang Qu Heduo by asking Wan'er's residence, but Jin Qing found him, "I said you, why did you come here, didn't you wait there?"

"Ah, Senior Sister Fang, you're also here, this kid didn't make trouble for you, right?" As soon as Jin Qing saw Fang Quhe, he immediately greeted him with a smile, as if he wanted to flatter.

"Nope. Fang Quhe frowned slightly when he saw Jin Qing, and then left without greeting.

"Senior Sister Fang, don't go. Jin Qing saw that Fang Quhe was leaving, but he tried his best to keep but still couldn't stay, Fang Quhe didn't hear his words, and left without looking back, "Alas......"

Xiao Ziyao saw Jin Qing's dejected look, and was very curious about Fang Quhe, so he asked him: "Senior Brother Jin, who is this Senior Sister Fang?"

"You're a handyman now, what do you ask?, can you know?......" Jin Qing vented his anger on Xiao Ziyao.

Xiao Ziyao didn't care, but felt a little pity for Jin Qing, and only after Jin Qing finished venting did he ask, "Senior Brother Jin, is my work arranged?"

"You're lined up, you now go back to the side door, the director is waiting for you. Jin Qing now looked like he was ignoring it, "I'll go back to the villa, you can tell the director yourself about anything." ”

"Then Senior Brother Jin is good. Watching Jin Qing walk in the direction of Fang Quhe's departure, Xiao Ziyao thought to himself that this was just a matter of receiving the money and not caring about it, he thought about it in a blink of an eye, whether it was okay or not, he would not hinder himself from doing things.

After returning to the side door the same way, Xiao Ziyao saw an old man in a coarse cloth robe, with a slight burden on his back, and a coarse robe in his hand.

Is this the director of Xiaozhuang, he got closer to the old man and found that he was still a mute, "You are the director of the villa?"

The old man nodded, handed the clothes to Xiao Ziyao, and led him to his room, and after he changed his clothes, his hands made some movements that Xiao Ziyao couldn't understand, "Director, I don't understand what you mean?"

"He meant to let you follow him, to take you to get acquainted with this place, right, Grandpa Gong?"
