Chapter 40: Appearing
readx;
There was nothing to do all night, and no thieves came to the door, but Zhou Zhiruo didn't sleep well and couldn't really sleep, worried that the flower thief would come to the door, for fear that he would fall asleep, and he fell into his way. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
When the sky was bright, she was completely relieved, and the tiredness suddenly came like a tide, and she fell asleep.
Liu Qingquan was in good spirits and had a good night's sleep, because she was very confident in her senior brother's hosta and jade bracelet, and besides, the jade pendant above the door had a wonderful use, so that she could sleep peacefully.
Seeing Zhou Zhiruo's bloodshot appearance, Liu Qingquan secretly felt guilty, but he couldn't, before leaving, the senior brother had a strict order, don't divulge more secrets, hosta is already the biggest bottom line, the use of jade pendant, you can't say much, so as not to cause endless trouble.
Fortunately, I bought some idle books yesterday, although Liu Qingquan doesn't like the Four Books and Five Classics, but he likes to read those wild history anecdotes, after washing, he went to the lobby of the inn to pad his stomach a little, and then returned to Xuemeixuan, not to disturb Zhou Zhiruo's sleep, and read with relish to pass the time.
In the middle of the air, after half a morning, Zhou Zhiruo woke up and saw that the house was bright, quiet, the sound of cicadas was faintly heard, Liu Qingquan was sitting in front of the Xuan desk under the window, holding a book, and his beautiful face was full of interest.
Liu Qingquan was quite vigilant, heard movement, turned his head to look, and saw Zhou Zhiruo sitting on the couch with a sleepy face, and couldn't help laughing: "Are you awake, Sister Zhou?"
Zhou Zhiruo blushed a little, if she was on the mountain, she couldn't tolerate such indulgence.
"What time is it?" Zhou Zhiruo asked shyly, reaching out and brushing her black hair.
Liu Qingquan got up, pushed open the window, looked at the sun, and said with a smile: "It's about three o'clock,...... Wait a little longer and you'll have lunch!"
Zhou Zhiruo couldn't help but smile at her when she heard her teasing, and discussed: "Then let's go to lunch first, and then go to Shuyuzhai to have a look, how about it?"
"Also go to Shuyuzhai?!...... What's there to see there?" Liu Qingquan suddenly asked helplessly.
"Senior Brother Xiao's jade horse is indeed very good, looking invigorating. Zhou Zhiruo said with a smile, lifted the brocade jacket, and put on shoes.
Liu Qingquan shook his head with a wry smile and sighed: "That jade horse was just carved by the senior brother, and it is not a top grade, it is sold to make money,...... If Sister Zhou likes it, when she returns to the mountain, let the senior brother carve one for you!"
"Really?!" Zhou Zhiruo was bowing down and wearing embroidered shoes, and when she heard this, she was refreshed and hurriedly got up and asked.
"Really!" Liu Qingquan nodded vigorously.
The disciples of the Emei school do not practice all day and night, and their homework on reading and writing is also quite strict, and they read to be wise and wise, and improve their enlightenment, and their comprehension of Buddhism also requires extremely high knowledge.
Whether it is the founding patriarch Guo Xiang Nuxia or Fengling Shitai, they are all people with profound common sense, although the extermination master is slightly inferior, but thanks to the teaching of the master Fengling Shitai, he is not only a martial artist, he has extraordinary knowledge, far better than ordinary scholars.
Zhou Zhiruo's surname is Wenjing, one literature and one martial arts, and she prefers Yu Wen, but as a disciple of Emei, martial arts is a compulsory homework, and she cannot be slack.
Seeing the lonely rain picture of the empty mountain in Shuyuzhai, I was fascinated by the artistic conception of it, and I was intoxicated and couldn't extricate myself.
It was difficult for her to think of Senior Brother Xiao who shook the thunder and lightning and the strange man of the mountains and fields of Guanlan Layman, but she was obviously alone, she couldn't help but want to overlap the two in her mind, but it was difficult to do so, and she was entangled, which made her quite distressed.
As soon as the two of them came out of Xuemei Xuan, they immediately returned to the appearance of Miss Chengjin and her personal maid, Zhou Zhiruo was cowardly, holding Liu Qingquan, and the lotus step moved lightly, soft as a new willow, such a delicate demeanor was really confusing.
Behind them, two handsome young men were wearing long swords, and they were full of spirit, and at a glance they knew that they were accompanied by martial arts masters.
The four of them went out of the Ping'an Inn, went to the bustling streets of Chengdu City, looked for two places that sold snacks, tasted them, were very satisfied, and ate very much.
Even so, their posture is still extravagant, even if they are pinched and put in their mouths with their hands, there is no sense of vulgarity at all.
Along the way, there were gradually followers behind them, some gentlemanly young men, and most of them were dressed in brocade, but they didn't come forward to talk, but just followed behind them, admiring their moving demeanor.
This made Liu Qingquan very disappointed, there are so many people in Chengdu City, it should be a mix of good and bad, why are they all such rules?
"Sister Liu, don't spend too much money, buy less things. Zhou Zhiruo saw that Liu Qingquan was extravagant, and she didn't know what to save money for, and when she saw what she liked, she stepped forward a little and paid to buy it, which made her tremble and couldn't help but dissuade her quietly.
"Hee-hee...... , If you don't spend so much money, how can you be worthy of the identity of Miss Qianjin?" Liu Qingquan grinned and replied quietly: "Don't worry, Senior Brother's jade horse can be sold for a lot of money, although the flower is enough, after a while, let Senior Brother carve some more things and sell them!"
Zhou Zhiruo couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard this, but she was speechless, and glanced back at the two guards, the person on the right was carrying a burden, which was already filled with a lot of things, but fortunately, his martial arts were strong, and his back was still as light as nothing.
Although Zhou Zhiruo's painting skills are not high, he also has a bit of eyesight, and just looking at people's admiration for the empty mountain and lonely rain picture, and the obsession with the green skull stepping on the moon, he knows that the jade horse can indeed be sold for a lot of money, and it is no wonder that Liu Qingquan is so extravagant to buy these things, I am afraid that he will not use even a fraction of it.
Before leaving, Liu Qingquan asked her senior brother how much she could sell for such a small jade horse, and the number that her brother said with a smile made her stunned and unimaginable.
Now she is like a person who became rich overnight, eager to buy all the delicious and fun things in the world, and she doesn't treat money as money at all.
Zhou Zhiruo saw Liu Qingquan's eyes shining, as if he wanted to buy everything, and smiled bitterly, knowing that he couldn't be dissuaded.
But she really felt sorry for Senior Brother Xiao, so much money was spilled out like flowing water, and what she got back was just some clay figurines and candy figurines, which were too worthless, and after thinking about it, she laughed softly: "Instead of buying these things, it's better to buy a good sword!"
When Liu Qingquan heard this, he felt very reasonable, nodded in agreement, and laughed softly: "Listen to Sister Zhou, then let's go buy a good sword!"
She twisted her delicate body, waved her hand to the two handsome young men behind her, and commanded crisply: "Go and inquire, where is there a sword seller!"
Her demeanor was condescending, and she was a little pampered, which was very consistent with the expression of her personal maid.
"Yes. The two high-ranking disciples of the Emei faction pretended to be dogs, without the majesty of a master, and bowed their heads and agreed, making the men behind them disdainful.
But there are also people who secretly envy their good luck, being able to be this young lady's flower messenger, even if it is worth it as a slave or a servant.
One of the two guards, slightly tall and thin, with an extraordinary bearing, asked the crowd next to him where the sword was sold, and soon asked and came to report it.
The young men behind him couldn't help laughing out loud when they saw his appearance, if it was like this to Miss, it would be forgivable, but she was only Miss's personal maid, why bother to grovel, a servile appearance, not worthy of being Miss's guard.
When the guard turned around, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly stabbed into those who were unobtrusive, causing them to stop abruptly, showing a deep internal strength.
When he turned around, they just reacted, although they were angry, but they were unwilling to do so, they wanted to scold, but they were afraid of their demeanor in front of the jade people, so they could only swallow this breath, which was very difficult for these gentlemen.
Soft and weak, Zhou Zhiruo, who was supported by Liu Qingquan, wore a string of pearls between her necks, and the brilliance flowed, she seemed to be standing in a clear light, like a fairy descending to earth, which made people feel that they could only watch from a distance, and not blasphemy, such as seeing the pearl and jade in front, and they were ashamed of themselves.
They changed their route, to go to the largest weapons workshop in Chengdu, want to buy a few sharp swords, Liu Qingquan plans to give them to the senior sisters as gifts, their swords, all ordinary goods, really encounter a magic weapon, will suffer a big loss.
"Huh, cousin?!" they were walking along the right side of the street as they surveyed the bustle around them, when suddenly a man appeared in front of them.
The two guards behind them flashed in shape and appeared in front of them, their swords unsheathed across their chests, separating the man from the two women.
Liu Qingquan and Zhou Zhiruo were both shocked, with their cleverness, they were bullied in front of them, but they didn't notice it, and they couldn't help but be on guard in their hearts.
When they saw the people in the way, the two of them were relieved, and they couldn't smile bitterly.
The man was dressed in a moon-white Confucian shirt, a hand-cranked brocade fan, a landscape painting on the fan, Sen Senran was about to come out, revealing a bit of cold, although his appearance was ordinary and ordinary, his bearing was quite chic and elegant, very much like a literary and graceful, light wind and moon.
He is frivolous and does not know martial arts, and seems to be a scholar who is powerless.
"Cousin, how could I see you here?!" the man couldn't help but smile when he saw the two of them glaring at him, shook the paper fan, and asked with a slow smile.
What the two girls heard in their ears was a clear voice: "I'll play cousin, don't show your feet." ”
Although the two girls couldn't smile bitterly, in front of so many people, they couldn't help it, so they had to follow him to continue the play.
"Cousin?" Zhou Zhiruo asked softly and weakly, looking at him carefully, as if he hadn't seen him for many years.
Liu Qingquan glared at the senior brother who suddenly appeared hatefully, and said to the crisp voice in front of him: "It doesn't matter, it's the young master." ”
Only then did the two guards withdraw their swords and return them to their sheaths, their eyes still on him, keeping an eye on him in case he made any changes.
In order to cooperate with Xiao Yuesheng's design of this beauty plan to lure the enemy, Pei Jinyi returned to Emei and sent the two of them to Dasheng Town to wait for Zhou Zhiruo and Liu Qingquan, so these two senior brothers of the Emei faction had never seen Xiao Yuesheng.
The sons and brothers who followed them were very angry, looking at Xiao Yuesheng's gaze as if they were choosing someone to devour, and they couldn't wait to swallow him in one gulp, thinking hatefully in their hearts: "This guy is not amazing, but I didn't expect that it was the cousin of this fairy and jade man, why not himself, God is really unfair!"
Xiao Yuesheng turned a blind eye to these people, looked at Zhou Zhiruo, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time, my cousin is getting more and more handsome, where are you going?"
"I want to go to the armory workshop to see ......" Zhou Zhiruo felt slightly shy, and two red clouds rose on her white jade-like cheeks, delicate and beautiful.
Fortunately, those sons and brothers were behind her, and they couldn't see her shyness and moving, otherwise, they would be jealous and couldn't bear it anymore.
"Well, buy a sword to defend yourself, you really should!" Xiao Yuesheng slammed a brocade fan, knocked on his palm heavily, nodded in agreement, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's take a look together, let my cousin serve as a staff officer for you, and pick a good sword!"
So the group went to the largest weapon workshop in the city, Luo Chen, with a long sword and long knife, which was bright and extraordinary, and it deserved to be the best ancient weapon workshop in the city.
Xiao Yuesheng sneered at these weapons, and picked his nose and eyes, but after looking at it for an hour, those sons and brothers who followed him had sore legs and numb feet, but they still didn't look at them, and they also made the shopkeeper angry.
Xiao Yuesheng is here, showing the true character of a talented man with literary style, quite the style of a tongue and a group of Confucians, his mouth is like a sharp arrow, and the arrows pierce the heart of the weapon shopkeeper.
Even Zhou Zhiruo was also surprised in her heart, she didn't expect Senior Brother Xiao, who was gentle and calm in Pingyue, to argue with others, he was so sharp and eloquent, counting the Emei faction, no one compared, how could she not be amazed? !
Liu Qingquan heard it with relish, but his stomach sounded lightly, he called out for hunger, looked at the sky, turned to the senior brother who was calm and calm, and had a lotus tongue: "Young Master Cousin, since it's not good, let's not buy it!"
"Well, it's better not to buy such a good thing!" Xiao Yuesheng replied unkindly, nodded, turned to his cousin who was slightly tired, and said, "Cousin, are you tired, right? Let's go back!"
Zhou Zhiruo, who is a cousin, nodded her head lightly, and was helped by Liu Qingquan to walk out, seeing that the lively people were already surrounding the armory workshop, seeing her step by step, Tsinghua forced people, unconsciously gave way and let them leave.
is making such a fuss, I'm afraid that the young lady played by Zhou Zhiruo is difficult to be famous in Chengdu.
"Senior brother, aren't you coming?!" As soon as he entered Xuemei Xuan and stepped into the house, Liu Qingquan hurled at Senior Brother and said in a coquettish voice.
Zhou Zhiruo's clear eyes also looked at him, he refused so simply at the beginning, which made him sad, why did he suddenly appear again at this time? !
"I didn't want to come, but Master couldn't let go, so he forced me to come!" Xiao Yuesheng sat in front of the Xuan case, pushed the screen window open, fanned the brocade fan lightly, spread his hands, and smiled slightly bitterly.
