Chapter 4: Treasure Map
Lei Zhen held these things in both hands, and then knelt in front of Tian Meng and Wang Liuer and said: "The disciple has been taught by the teacher, and the great kindness is unforgettable. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Wang Liu hurriedly went to pull Lei Zhen: "Eh?!This can't be helped, get up quickly... ”
At this time, Lei Yiming, who had not spoken at this time, now spoke on the steps and said: "Eh, the two brothers don't have to be polite, this is a little bit of Zhen'er's heart, just accept it! Besides, after three years of getting along day and night, the Lei family does not treat the two as outsiders, so we don't need to be polite." ”
Tian Meng is a sensible person, and when he heard Lei Yiming say this, he also laughed: "Hehe, in this case, Brother Wang, no matter how polite you and I are, it will be hypocritical." Brother Lei, then the two of us will no longer be polite!" After speaking, he took the package from Lei Zhen's hand, and then said, "Okay, apprentice, get up." What are you carrying here? I want to explain it to the teacher. ”
Lei Zhen saw Tian Meng take the package, and said happily: "Master Hui, this blue book records Master Tian's mastery of your "Tongbei Fist", and that pair of gauntlets is the "Zun Holy Palm" that I begged my father to ask a skilled craftsman to make with extraterrestrial meteoric iron, this set of palms is hard and abnormal, so that you are not afraid of the enemy's sharp blade when facing the enemy. Master Wang, this green booklet records your peerless "Panlong Stick Method", and this retractable Qi Mei stick is made of dark iron, I hope you can use it. As for these two gray booklets, what is recorded is a set of martial arts that I created after the integration of "Tong Back Fist" and "Panlong Stick Method", and I named him "Zhenlong Zaitian", and took one word from each of our masters and apprentices, and asked the two martial artists to accept it and leave a souvenir!"
Tian Meng heard this and found that he actually had a feeling of wanting to cry, but Wang Liu, a sincere person, had already cried, Tian Meng sobbed twice and said: "I can't imagine that your kid's family is so rich but he doesn't have the arrogance of a son, before leaving, he actually fulfilled a dream of the two of us for many years, and our martial arts have actually been booked, hahaha, okay! I didn't read the wrong person! Okay! Okay! Hey, Master Lei, you gave birth to a good son, you have taken your leave! Apprentice, let's see you again!"
After the two hugged their fists and left, Lei Zhen knelt down and kowtowed to Lei Yiming three times, and then said: "Dad, you and your mother should take care of your body, the child is gone." ”
Lei Yiming nodded: "Go, you belong to the rivers and lakes, don't worry about me and your mother, just remember the teachings of your father." There are some coils for you to use on the road, but you have to figure out how to do it yourself after you use it, and this bag, it is for my father when he went to Annan to do business when he accidentally saved a Taoist priest in the mountains, and later he gave me this bag as a thank you, don't underestimate this thing, its internal space is the size of a room, which can reduce a lot of burden. But then I inquired, I don't have this kind of treasure in the Ming Dynasty, so you must not show it as a last resort, so as not to cause death. Also, after you have made some name in the rivers and lakes, you will go home, and your father has something to give you, go. ”
In this way, Lei Zhen took the first step of walking the rivers and lakes with his reluctance to his family and yearning for the rivers and lakes, and officially started his legendary life.
After leaving home, Lei Zhen did not leave Guizhou City directly, but went directly to the city, he remembered what Tian Meng said, "Be prepared", so he had to prepare some things in the city in case of emergency. Since the establishment of the city in the Tang Dynasty, the city of Guizhou has developed quite prosperously, standing on the street and looking up, there are teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, workshops and so on on both sides of the street. There are also small vendors with large umbrellas in the open spaces on both sides of the street, and their goods stretch out to the quieter suburbs outside the city. Coupled with the endless stream of pedestrians, everything looks so peaceful. As everyone knows, at the same time, there are already some Japanese robbers in the coastal area, and how long can the quiet and peaceful atmosphere here last... ?
Lei Zhen was walking on the street, thinking about his future itinerary and what he should prepare, and happened to walk in front of a white-faced scholar's painting stall, where a bunch of people were gathered to watch the scholar paint. Lei Zhen and Wang Liu's apprentice for three years, and the practice of the dragon stick method is also three years, and the three years have been imperceptibly, so that he has some special feelings for the word dragon, and he happened to see the scholar painting the dragon, Lei Zhen liked it a lot, so he squeezed in from the crowd, and then he said to the scholar: "This brother, I see that your painting is lifelike, the finishing touch is just right, Lei Mou saw the heart of the good liking, I don't know if the brother Tai is willing to cut love, give this painting to the next?"
The white-faced scholar put down the pen in his hand, and then said with a smile: "I see that the son is gorgeously dressed and behaves generously and deappropriately, he must be a person from a famous family, since the son is interested in the clumsy work in the next, it is an honor in the next, so see that the son is also a person who knows how to paint, so I will sell it to you for a thousand taels of silver!"
Lei Zhen was stunned at the time, just now he counted the silver his father gave him, no more, no less, exactly one thousand taels, this is his entanglement, all used to buy a painting, this is a crazy behavior. But he really liked this painting, so he wanted to discuss it with the scholar: "Ahem... Brother, do you think the price is reasonable?"
"Hehe, whether it's reasonable or not depends on whether you know the goods or not, besides, I will also send a thing to Childe, this thing alone is worth a thousand taels of silver, that is to say, the clumsy work in the next is just a free gift. The scholar still said with a smile.
At this time, the crowd of onlookers exploded the camp, and most of the people said that the scholar was poor and crazy, and he dared to ask for a thousand taels of silver for a broken painting, but the scholar was not angry, just looked at everyone with a smile. This made Lei Zhen feel that this scholar was not simple, maybe there was something really secret in this painting? So Lei Zhen thought about it and said to the scholar: "I wonder if Brother Tai can take a step to speak?"
In a window position on the second floor of the teahouse in the city, Lei Zhen and the scholar sat there, and Lei Zhen still held two paintings in his hands. One is naturally the "Canglong Chases the Sun" painted by the scholar, while the other is impressively written with three big characters "Treasure Map"! But the scholar is holding a silver ticket in his hand, and he sits there holding the silver ticket and looks at it with a smile. Lei Zhen frowned and asked, "This is what you said is worth a thousand taels? If there is a treasure, why don't you look for it yourself, but you want to cheapen me?"
The scholar laughed: "There are times in life when you have to have it, and there are times in life when you don't have to ask for it." Fate, it depends on fate!"
Although Lei Zhen still didn't believe it, since he gave the money to the other party, it was naturally difficult to ask for it back, so he had to pick up his things and look at the scholar and walk out of the teahouse. When the scholar saw Lei Zhen leaving, he smiled mysteriously, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye. Although Lei Zhen was not sure about the authenticity of this treasure map, but the money was gone, and a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, so he took out the treasure map, on which in addition to drawing a rough map of Guizhou City, there were also a few limericks: Hundred birds and phoenixes see sincerity, and shopping around is a second line. The shops are prosperous, and the future is terrifying. If the city is good, the pen is like a god.
After reading it, Lei Zhen had a feeling of bewilderment, and he said in his heart: What is this all right? With these few nonsense limericks, go to find treasure? What about kidding? but... Since the money has been spent, if you can't find it, you have to look for it, otherwise we will have to go home and ask for money before the road to the rivers and lakes has begun, and we can't afford to lose this person! So Lei Zhen found a branch and then copied the limerick poem on the treasure map on the ground, and began to figure out the meaning of these words. What does "a hundred birds and a phoenix" mean? "shop around" means? "There are many shops", "the future is terrifying"... These few words are not related, this... Lei Zhen suddenly realized that these words should not be understood in this way, and he said to himself: "I can't read it along the way, but what if I read it vertically? This is a hidden poem! Take the first word in each line, I know! Under the back door of the department store!"
Lei Zhen grew up in Guizhou City since he was a child, so he is familiar with going to the department store, and the owner of the department store, Zhang Yuanwai, is also a vassal and elegant person, kind, and good to him, and often goes to Lei Mansion as a guest to discuss business with his father, so Lei Zhen found a shovel and went straight to the department store. It's just that what he didn't expect was 。。。。。。
