Jibaozhai's account book was already soaked and he couldn't see the accounts, and Ning Caichen had no choice, so he had to sit down after listening to Xuankong's repeated invitations at this moment. However, in front of Xuankong and Princess Ao Ying, he was still a little restrained, and arched his hand: "Ning Sheng has seen two adults. ”

Xuankong smiled and said, "You don't have to call us adults, I'm Xuankong, a Laoshan Qi Refiner, this one is"

He looked at Princess Ao Ying and didn't think about how to introduce it for a while, but Princess Ao Ying preemptively said: "I am Xuankong's wife, you can call me Long Ying, or Long Girl." ”

When Xuankong heard this, his temples suddenly jumped, and he hurriedly skipped the topic and asked Ning Caichen: "You were sent here by the owner to collect the accounts, but the account book is also wet, do you have any plans?"

Ning Caichen also sighed in his heart that his luck was not good, and after listening to Xuankong's question, he said helplessly: "I can't collect the account now, and the coils on my body have run out, so I don't know what to do." Maybe I should go back to my hometown again, and it would be better to copy a copy from the general ledger in Jibao Zhai and then speak. ”

Xuankong smiled: "It's a long way to go, I'm afraid it will take a long time, right?"

Ning Caichen looked at Xuankong and smiled bitterly: "Seeing that Xuankong Dao Master is also an immortal with cultivation and mana, he naturally doesn't know the helplessness of us mortals." "For Xuankong, a place that can be reached in a blink of an eye, resting on the legs of mortals, I am afraid that it will take months to walk.

Xuankong had the heart to wake up this little scholar who was still trapped in self-pity, so he took the lead in solving the puzzle and said: "Since you can also see that I am from the immortal family, don't you have anything to ask me?"

Ning Caichen's face was bitter, he touched his pocket and said, "Immortals, don't tease me, I'm just a scholar, and I haven't received the account, where is there any face-to-face tuition for you?"

Xuankong shook his head with a smile, and said proudly: "How can I, Xuankong, be a person who covets the wealth of the world? It's just that you and I have some fate, so I specially said that I had a good cause!"

Ning Caichen saw that he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly stood up and apologized, and Xuankong smiled disapprerovingly: "I see that you are a scholar with a full heavenly court and round ears, you are a blessed appearance, but it's a pity"

There are gods and demons in this world, so mortals also believe in the theory of fortune, not only Ning Caichen himself pricked up his ears, but even Princess Ao Ying couldn't help but ask: "It's just a pity, what?"

Xuankong glanced at Ning Caichen meaningfully, and just moved his fingers to pretend to make a calculation posture, and then shook his head and sighed: "It's just that the peach blossom calamity is too heavy, the future is uneven, and the fate is unlucky. ”

Ning Caichen asked, "What if you can't do it?"

Xuankong shook his head and said nothing, Princess Ao Ying couldn't bear it, and asked anxiously: "Xuankong, just say it directly, what will happen if you can't cross it?"

It's not that Xuankong didn't say it, it's just that he saw that Ning Caichen didn't have any panic on his face, obviously he didn't take his words to heart, he thought about it and reminded him, but with the spleen and surname of this stupid scholar, he had to roll around in that yin and yang ghost path.

That's why he hesitated a little, and only then did he say half-ringingly: "If you can't cross it, you will fall into the ghost path forever, and you will not enter reincarnation and suffer a lot from now on!"

Ning Caichen said with a smile: "To survive in this world is to suffer a lot, where is there a place that is more difficult than the world?" He drank the tea in the teacup, got up from the table and was about to leave, and said: "Thank you to the immortals for inviting tea, Ning Sheng has to go back to check the accounts, so he will leave first." ”

Xuankong laughed and said, "As far as your ability to collect accounts is concerned, even if you run back and forth on the road for a hundred years, you can't collect half a silver tael!"

This sentence is comparable to the reality that Xuanzhi and Xuan's future are expected to come, Ning Caichen suddenly paused, turned around and asked, "What advice does the immortal have?"

Xuankong sighed, speaking of his history of collecting debts, it was really longer than the years of cultivation. Although it is said that in his previous life, it was not called collecting debts, but it was called collecting protection money, but in fact, the method of doing it was almost the same.

He said: "In fact, it is not right to collect protection money, it should be the actual collection of accounts, this kind of thing is not only to test a person's communication ability, but also to test the momentum of the person who accepts the account, and the ability to adapt, in short, there are many doorways here!"

Ning Caichen's blood boiled when he heard this, these truths have not been taught in any sage book, he took out a brush from the bookshelf, took out a clean paper, and recorded it carefully.

Xuankong told him some of his experience in collecting protection money in his previous life, and he couldn't help but be a little short of words, after all, this kind of thing was not only not taught by the master, but also never written in Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures.

He looked at Princess Ao Ying and Ning Caichen who were staring at his face, blinked his eyes, and sighed: "Alas, that's it, let me test it for you myself, and you will know." ”

This kind of thing, in the end, can't be guided by theory alone, Xuankong asked for the account book from Ning Caichen's hands. Ning Caichen thought to himself that this account book was also soaked in water anyway, and it was useless at all, so he handed it to Xuankong without any doubt.

Xuankong took the account book, and did not grab it casually, but first gathered it in the robe. He took Ning Caichen to the counter of the teahouse, and educated Ning Caichen and said: "You were too polite just now, you are the uncle in this matter." There is no need to go low, try to suppress the opponent's momentum as soon as you come up, that is the best!"

Ning Caichen and Princess Ao Ying followed behind Xuankong and nodded fiercely, they watched Xuankong walk to the counter of the teahouse shopkeeper and lean on it.

The shopkeeper of the teahouse saw that it was a noble person coming, and hurriedly greeted: "Guest officer, do you have any other orders?"

Xuankong smiled at the shopkeeper, pretending to be useless and said casually: "Boss, your tea here is quite authentic! Yes, it's really good!"

The shopkeeper of the teahouse was praised by the distinguished guests, and his face was like a chrysanthemum, and he complimented: "The guest officer is of good taste, and the tea leaves here are all from Jibao Zhai, and they are all first-class goods!"

Xuankong heard that the shopkeeper of the teahouse was so real, and his stomach hurt with laughter, but he still made a very serious and rigid face on his face, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, that's the best, let's settle the account first, right?"

The shopkeeper of the teahouse thought that Xuankong was here to settle the bill, so he hurriedly opened his mouth and shouted to the people who ran to the hall to come and settle the bill, but he was pressed down by Xuankong. He threw the account book he asked for from Ning Caichen to soak in water on the counter, and smiled at the shopkeeper of the teahouse: "You misunderstood, I mean, we should calculate the accounts you owe us Jibaozhai!"
