"Beautiful roses have thorns. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

A lazy and helpless sigh sounded, the steps in front of a shop were empty, and suddenly a hand shaking a folding fan appeared, only hands, no arms and no body, several children chasing and playing in the rain were passing by in front of the steps, and immediately there was an exclamation, and they spread their legs and turned around and ran. Some of them looked back boldly as they ran, but they saw that the hand quickly "grew" an arm, then a shoulder, a head, and a whole body. A beautiful boy finally grew up completely, shook the folding fan playfully to the children, walked down the steps with square steps, and sighed again:

"There's thorns. ”

Brother Gongzi was indignant in his heart. I thought that with the wonderful ability of perspective, I could see all the beautiful women in the world, but I could only think about it. In fact, his so-called perspective is a kind of sea king illusion talent that turns reality into nothingness, and nothing can exist in his eyes, that is, the so-called "empty illusion red dust". When Neptune awakened, he was still in the temple - in fact, he had been in the temple all the time, because the old monk who was chattering with the gods had to say that he had a deep Buddha relationship, and his parents threw him out to be a little monk, so he didn't have a deep Buddha relationship - the old monk in the temple said that this talent is deeply in line with Buddhism, and the Buddha said that the four are empty, all things in heaven and earth are nothing but dreams, everything in this world you say is fake, it is fake, you can turn a blind eye to everything, you don't have to care about anything, but don't you think of it with the Buddha? But he thinks that it doesn't matter if anything else is fake or not, as long as the beautiful girl's clothes are fake, the Buddha said that "color is empty, empty is color", color should be empty clothes, clothes are empty before color, Buddha is still very wise in this regard. It's a pity that I have been trapped in the monk pile, and the hero is useless, so it is easy to come out to breathe, thinking that I can finally show my strengths and see all the beauties in the world, but it turns out that the beauties are all thorny.

On the other side of the street, a girl walked by with an umbrella, and Brother Childe glanced at it casually, and then withdrew his gaze carelessly. It's not that the other party is not beautiful, it's that it's not beautiful enough, no matter how beautiful a mortal woman is, how beautiful can she be? The prince has a noble status, how can a vulgar fan get into the eyes? To be a man is to have a bottom line, but you can't just make do with it. Thinking that he had such a high and bright bottom line, Brother Gongzi couldn't help but be full of pride, and the injustice in his chest was swept away, and he saw the golden signboard of the Beidou Pavilion from a distance, so he shook the folding fan and strode with his head held high.

In the Beidou Pavilion, two guys are guessing boxing. After successfully selling that share of the Yipinhua essence, they were faced with the problem of who would go to the Hou Mansion to collect debts. The lady housekeeper of the Huaiqing Marquis Mansion would not owe money and not give it, but it was a muddy and rainy day outside, and no one wanted to go out. The two of them were struggling over this matter, and a boy swaggered in, and under the gaze of the two of them, he went to the chair by the counter, and asked in a full voice: "Call your branch shopkeeper out." ”

The two guys looked at each other. The young man asked very unceremoniously, "Who are you?"

Brother Gongzi snapped his fan and folded it: "The owner!"

The young man was happy: "Do you know who our owner is? This is the Beidou Pavilion, and there is only one owner, and that is the Great Zhou royal family!"

Brother Gongzi blinked nonchalantly: "Ang, I know, I am." ”

"You ......" the young man wanted to say something, but was stopped by the big guy reaching out. To say that people from the royal family would suddenly run to such a ghost place, of course, it is a bit strange, but it is not impossible, and this prince does have some grace and luxury. At that moment, the big guy smiled: "Our old Mr. Sun is upstairs, I'll go and call him down." ”

"Mr. Sun?...... Oh——, Sun Qiwu! I know, I'll go upstairs to find him. Brother Gongzi shook the fan, stood up and walked upstairs.

The two men looked at each other again, and this time neither of them stopped them. People can directly say the name of Mr. Sun, maybe it is really a person from the royal family, and I don't know what his identity is. The young man beat the drum in his heart, put on a bitter gourd face and asked in a low voice, "It can't be any prince, right?"

"I don't know, it's possible. The big guy replied.

“...... So, did I offend him?"

"I don't know, it's possible. ”

The two of them were muttering there, but they saw Brother Gongzi suddenly stop in the middle of the stairs, sniffed fiercely, and wondered: "What kind of wine is so fragrant? Qingsang wine? No! Qingmulberry wine is mellow and sweet, but it does not have such a strong aroma of wine, it smells intoxicating, but it is invigorating, it seems to wake up but not awake, and it will be drunk but not drunk, this is the real fluttering fairy! Good wine!"

Brother Gongzi shook his head and tasted it, suddenly quickened his pace, ran upstairs with a puff, followed the aroma of wine, and saw at a glance that behind the carved screen, an old gentleman with glasses was drinking in small sips with a white porcelain wine glass. Brother Gongzi jumped over with one arrow step, and the fan stopped fanning, just shouting: "Leave me some, leave me some!"

His shout was so sudden, the old Mr. Sun Qiwu was startled, the hand holding the wine glass shook, and a drop of elixir-like wine flew out, but the boy who rushed over put it into his mouth with a copy of his hand, clicked his lips, and shouted: "Sure enough, good wine!" The next moment, his eyes were staring straight at the wine glass in Sun Qiwu's hand, the fan was thrown to the side, and the two hands were hugged forward, like a tiger pounced. Sun Qiwu subconsciously dodged sideways, only to see Brother Gongzi turn over from the table one by one, and the wine glass in his hand disappeared with a swish. The other party turned his back to him and tilted his head, making a "swish" sound, followed by an "ah" sigh.

"What do you say and turn a blind eye, there is such a fine wine in the world, how can you turn a blind eye? The bald donkey misunderstood me! The bald donkey almost misunderstood me!" Brother Gongzi turned around, shook his hand and threw back the empty wine glass. Sun Qiwu hurriedly stretched out his hand to catch it, straightened his glasses in a daze, looked at the other party carefully, and hesitated: "Are you ......?"

Brother Gongzi smiled: "Ji Xingkong!"

Sun Qiwu was startled, quickly stood up, straightened his clothes, and bowed down: "Sun Qiwu has seen the three princes!"

"It doesn't matter if you see it or not," Ji Xingkong waved his hand, "Take out your wine, I want to drink!"

Sun Qiwu frowned. He was appointed from the capital to the north three years ago to the head of the sub-pavilion, and he used to be in contact with the great prince who was directly in charge of the affairs of the Beidou Pavilion, and he had never heard of the three princes before, and people said that this was an indulgent and cynical master, and when he saw it today, he really didn't have a little royal demeanor. He asked tentatively: "The third prince came to Dongting this time, is it the eldest prince who ......?"

"Oh, my eldest brother asked me to come over and inquire about the Conversion Sect," Ji Xingkong said as he looked left and right, "He said that it was you and Gu ...... over here Gu is responsible. ”

"Gu Lewen. ”

"Ah yes, Gu Lewen. How are you investigating?Are there any new trends recently?" Ji Xingkong saw a small gourd on the table in front of Sun Qiwu, his eyes lit up, and he walked over and held it in his hand, "Could this be your wine?"

"It's not, it's just a flower spirit. Sun Qiwu hurriedly said, "The Great Prince sent me to Huaiqing, mainly to monitor the Huaiqing Marquis Mansion and investigate whether the Hou Mansion is secretly promoting the Conversion Sect, according to my observation, there should be no, and there are no suspicious signs." It's just that I don't know if Gu Lewen has any other clues in Shashui, after all, that is the core stronghold of the Guizhen Sect. ”

"Of course I'm going to Shashui, I recently heard a mysterious saying, saying that the Phantom Sea Desert has an extraordinary origin, and there is a dragon and an old turtle pressed underneath, and the old turtle has the ability to turn illusions into reality, and my Void Illusion Red Dust is the opposite, can turn reality into illusions, so I want to go over and take a look. When I get to Shashui, I will go to Gu Lewen. Ji Xingkong said while pulling off the stopper of the small gourd and sniffing it, "Sure enough, it's a flower essence, and the grade is not bad." ...... But what I want is wine, but what about yours? It can't be just that glass, right?"

"Wine ...... Over here. Seeing that the other party was all focused on wine, Sun Qiwu couldn't help but shake his head, walked to the side and opened the closet, carefully took out a wine jar from it, and poured a glass for Ji Xingkong, who was rubbing his hands and dripping with his hands.

Ji Xingkong frowned as soon as he smelled the wine: "Qingsang, this is indeed a good wine, but it is very different from the cup just now! You are reluctant to give me a drink, and you shouldn't fool me with this thing." ”

"The third prince is not in a hurry. Sun Qiwu slowly unscrewed the small gourd stopper, and in Ji Xingkong's expectant and surprised eyes, he clicked a small drop of flower essence into the cup. The colorless and transparent flower essence points into the same colorless green mulberry wine, but I see that the wine in the cup is slightly swinging, and there is a faint picture of flowers blooming, and I want to highlight the mouth of the cup and pour out.

Ji Xingkong immediately looked stupid, pointed to the wine glass with his finger, and glared at Sun Qiwu: "This, this...... What kind of trick is this? That's how the wine was made?"

Sun Qiwu stroked his beard and nodded: "Exactly." ”

Ji Xingkong was not in a hurry to taste the wine at this time, he snatched Sun Qiwu's flower essence gourd, and sniffed it again and again with his nose at the mouth of the gourd, and found that it was indeed a flower essence, and he really couldn't smell the slightest hint of wine. Putting down the gourd, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all, closed his eyes and tasted it carefully, and when he opened it again, the shock in his eyes did not go away: "Wonderful! A drop of flower dew, all wine becomes immortal brew, it can be said that a little stone becomes gold, green mulberry is intoxicating and the flower essence is awake, and it is even more unique and wonderful when drunk and awakened! It turns out that the flower essence can still do this, why don't you think of those flower essences in the capital?" He grabbed the flower essence gourd again and asked, "Who prepared this?"

"I'm also suspicious of this. Sun Qiwu replied truthfully, "The person who came to sell flower essence is a handsome young man, but he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he must not be worthy of this grade of things, but he keeps saying that he has prepared it himself." ”

"Boy, is there an elder behind him who doesn't want to show his face?"

"That's what I thought, too. The young man's name was Lin Duan, and I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but then I remembered that there was a young master in the Huaiqing Marquis Mansion who couldn't practice, and it seemed that this was the name. ”

"Oh, it's the fifth young master who broke the undefeated bloodline of the Lin family, the political enemies of the Lin family spread vigorously about this matter, and they all said that the Lin family is not good. You said he was the one who made this flower essence?"

Sun Qiwu shook his head: "I think, eighty percent are from the Hou Mansion." ”

"Well, that makes sense!" Ji Xingkong nodded, put the flower essence into his mustard seed, reached out and grabbed it in the air, and the fan that he had thrown to the ground before returned to his hand. He tapped his palm with a fan, got up and walked out: "I'll go to the Hou Mansion for a walk." With such a good wine, how can it only be made for Huai Qinghou to drink alone?...... Ah no, how can such a strange person be buried in this wasteland? Mr. Sun, open the way in front of your head!"
