Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 515 How did he become like this?

Yan Huan came suddenly.

Meng Yuanfeng was laughing in his heart, but his face didn't change at all.

Is this battle a win?

Hard to say!

If Long Xiulian went to war regardless of everything, it would be difficult for him to deal with it.

In a one-on-one fight, Yan Huan couldn't beat Long Xiulian, and a third-grade Taoist cultivator was no match for the judge.

And all the organs of the magic circle have been basically exhausted, and Tao Huayuan is not Sun Qianli's opponent.

There was only one judge left, and Niu Yuxian was no match for him.

In the face of the absolute disparity in strength, no matter how much luck Meng Yuanfeng borrowed, it would not help.

Now I can only bet that Long Xiulian will not dare to make a move.

He made the right bet, Long Xiulian waved his hand, and the three judges disappeared without a trace.

Long Xiulian didn't want to fight two third-ranks at the same time, especially at the door of each other's house.

Yan Huan walked into the mansion, saw blood and corpses on the ground, and asked, "What happened?"

The maid didn't dare to answer, Meng Yuanfeng stepped forward to salute and said, "There was an assassin attacking Marquis Yun, and we fought back."

Yan Huan looked at Meng Yuanfeng and asked, "Who are you?"

Meng Yuanfeng said: "The old man is a farmer from Changluo Village, named Xueshan. The village's livelihood is difficult. I know some yin and yang techniques, so I came to ask Yunhou for a bowl of food."

"Changluo Village..." Yan Huan thought for a moment, remembering the location of this place, "Your Majesty has already sent Taoists to go to the western counties, and when we harvest another season of grain, life will be easier."

Meng Yuanfeng thanked him repeatedly, and sighed in his heart: Xu Zhiqiong really kept his word, this matter has been done.

Yan Huan looked into the room: "Is Yunhou sick?"

Meng Yuanfeng nodded and said, "I haven't had any water or rice today, and I've been sleeping in bed all this time."

Yan Huan opened the door and walked in, saw Tao Huayuan was there, and asked, "Why is Yun Hou sick?"

Tao Huayuan didn't know how to explain. She didn't know what happened to Xu Zhiqiong, so she said casually: "It should be that his cultivation level has been promoted."

Yan Huan checked Xu Zhiqiong's pulse. The pulse was weak, and there were indeed signs of promotion, but it was not so obvious.

"I heard from the emperor that on the way you came to Dayu, Yunhou was promoted from the fifth rank to the fifth rank. It has only been a few days. Could it be that he has been promoted to the fifth rank again? This is too fast."

Tao Huayuan couldn't give a reasonable explanation, but Meng Yuanfeng was still old-fashioned: "Marquis Yun has been fighting on the battlefield for the past two months. He practiced the Dao of Killing. Presumably because he killed so many enemies, his cultivation improved faster, but it may not be true. It's a promotion."

That makes more sense.

Yan Huan sent Xu Zhiqiong a little energy, which would not change the process of meritorious deeds, but could relieve Xu Zhiqiong's pain.

After sitting for a while, Yan Huan left, and Meng Yuanfeng let out a sigh of relief.

He suggested yesterday that Xu Zhiqiong should ask Yan Huan to help, but Xu Zhiqiong was worried that the inside story of the Taoist sect would be leaked.

Looking at it now, if Yan Huan had come one step earlier and met Long Xiulian, the inside story of Judge Dao would definitely not be covered up.

But if Yan Huan came one step later, then... there would be no future.

If it's really late, Meng Yuanfeng, Xu Zhiqiong, Tao Huayuan, Niu Yuxian... the entire mansion, up and down, none of them can survive.

Meng Yuanfeng fumbled for the copper coins, and sighed, "Good luck, really good luck."

……

Back at Zukazai's Mansion, Long Xiulian took a sip of tea, saw that Sun Qianli was worried, and asked, "What are you worried about?"

Sun Qianli said: "This subordinate really can't figure it out, Mr. Zhongzai just decided to go to Yu Xianguo today, how could Ma Shangfeng know in advance?"

Long Xiulian said: "Are you worried about an inner ghost? This is because you are thinking too much. You don't know Meng Yuanfeng's methods. He is the best at divination. He must have predicted that we are coming and made arrangements in advance.

I just didn't expect that Meng Yuanfeng would help Ma Shangfeng, let alone Yan Huan. Wasn't Yan Huan Da Zongbo?Doesn't he live in Suzaku Palace?When did you return to Yu Xianguo? "

Sun Qianli said: "My lord, Yan Huan returned to Yu Xianguo a year ago."

He recounted his past experience, and Long Xiulian was quite surprised: "Over the years, so many things have happened to Daxuan, it seems that I can't always stay in Zukazai's mansion, do you know what my name is in the world?" Is it?"

Sun Qianli said hastily: "This subordinate dare not ask."

Long Xiulian smiled and said: "I regard you as my confidant, so why not if you know? My name is Mu Xiuxuan in the mortal world, and I am a businessman. Find some trustworthy people and set up a tea house for me. Fortunately, it can be opened in a few days, the shop needs to be bigger, the staff needs to be more, the doctor of tea is more handsome, I have the money, just spend it as much as you like."

Sun Qian looked distressed: "If it is in Huazhou, this matter is easy to talk about, but the judges in the capital's borders may not necessarily listen to me."

Long Xiulian waved his folding fan and said, "If you don't obey me, just kill it."

Sun Qianli lowered his head and said, "If you do this, I'm afraid Doctor Bai will be dissatisfied."

"How can Doctor Bai be dissatisfied?" Long Xiulian said with a smile, "From now on, the capital will be your territory, and Doctor Bai will have other appointments."

The benevolence divisions in Beijing, Chaizhou, and Pingzhou have the highest status among the benevolence divisions.

Sun Qianli has been reused, so he quickly saluted and thanked him.

……

Sun Qianli was quick to do things, and the next day he took down the shop and recruited a group of guys.

It is not enough just to have a buddy, but also to recruit a group of decent tea doctors.

Wang'an is hard to find in Beijing, and it coincides with a disaster year. Outside the capital, there are many poor families who sell their wives and daughters.

He bought more than [-] doctors of tea, and seeing that the tea house was about to open, Long Xiulian went to see it in person, then called a doctor of tea and said, "Make a cup of tea and have a look."

Dr. Cha is a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. She picked up the tea mill, ground the tea carefully, poured water, and served it to Long Xiulian.

Long Xiulian looked at the tea soup, didn't take a sip, turned around and called Captain Jiancha: "Is this the tea brewed by Dr. Qicha?"

Captain Jiancha is a woman in her early thirties, looking at the bowl of crude tea soup, she hastily smiled and said: "Shopkeeper, this girl just came to the tea house today, and she was born in poverty before, how do you know how to make tea?

You can wait for a month or so to see, I'm sure I'll tidy up their handicrafts in a decent way. "

"I can't wait for a month," Long Xiulian shook his head and said, "I'm going to open tomorrow."

"This, this is more difficult."

"I have the money, I can't treat you badly, don't let me see such tea soup again tomorrow."

"It's not just about money. You are an expert. You can't learn the skill of making tea overnight. Look at this..." Captain Sencha's voice became weaker and weaker, and gradually he dared not speak.

Long Xiulian always had a smile on her face, but this smile terrified her.

"Shopkeeper, you just said that it will open tomorrow, Ming, tomorrow, right? Ming, tomorrow's tea soup must not be like this."

Long Xiulian smiled, opened the folding fan and shook it twice, got up and left.

Captain Sencha only felt a dull pain in his chest, which he couldn't calm down for a while.

A doctor of tea brought her a bowl of tea. Captain Sencha held the bowl and fell to the ground suddenly: "What the hell is this called tea? The dirty water in the ditch is stronger than this. How did I teach you? Du Te Why don't you go to sleep and bring the teapot! Stay up all night tonight, I don't think you will learn it!"

……

The next day, the business opened and it was named Xiuxuan Tea House.

The tea house was open for three days, Long Xiulian stood on the second floor of the tea house, silently watching the guests in the hall.

There were quite a few guests, but Long Xiulian seemed dissatisfied.

"The guests are rough." Long Xiulian took a sip of tea, "but it's as rough as this tea soup."

Sun Qianli smiled and said: "The tea house has just opened, and when it becomes more famous in the future, literati will naturally come."

Long Xiulian shook his head and said: "Look at these tea experts, they don't know anything except brewing tea and laughing. The tea brewing is not decent. What kind of literati do you expect?"

Sun Qianli understood: "Tomorrow I will invite some luthiers to teach them how to play and sing."

"No need, I brought the qin master." Long Xiulian shook the folding fan in his hand, "Send all the guests away, let Dr. Cha start learning the qin tonight."

Sun Qianli didn't dare to disobey, and quickly ordered people to disperse the guests, and gathered Dr. Cha in one place.

Long Xiulian brought a man in white to the center of the hall, and said with a smile, "Let's play a song for them to listen to."

The man in white was expressionless, like a wooden figure, sitting in the center of the lobby, and began to play the piano.

He played a song "Phoenix Hairpin" with a melodious tune, and everyone who listened to it was mesmerized.

Captain Jiancha admired and said: "Excellent piano skills, even if you go to Yingge Academy, you will never see such good piano skills."

Long Xiulian lowered his head and asked, "Are you good at it?"

"This, this didn't happen overnight..." Colonel Sencha laughed dryly.

Long Xiulian also laughed.

Captain Sencha felt cold all over his body, nodded repeatedly and said: "If you can learn it well, if you can't learn it, I will kill them, let them learn tonight, learn hard!"

"That's right," Long Xiulian put away the folding fan and said, "First learn the piano, then learn the song, and then learn the dance. This luthier is proficient in everything."

Captain Sencha asked cautiously: "I don't know what the name of this luthier is?"

"You don't need to address him, he's called the luthier, and he will live here from now on."

Captain Sencha didn't dare to ask more questions, and listened to the piano quietly.

After playing a song "The Hairpin Head Phoenix", I played another song "Butterfly Love Flower". At the end of "Butterfly Love Flower", the sound of the piano stopped abruptly.

Captain Sencha said: "Why don't you play it?"

Long Xiulian said: "He is hungry, give him something to eat."

Captain Sencha stood up and said, "I'm going to prepare some food and wine."

"No food or wine," Long Xiulian shook his head and said, "A bowl of rice and a bowl of water are enough."

Not long after, a tea doctor brought up a bowl of rice and a bowl of water.

Long Xiulian asked her to put the rice directly on the ground.

The luthier squatted on the ground, grabbed the rice with his hands, and put it into his mouth.

Sun Qianli stared at the luthier for a long time, and couldn't help but tremble.

This is Bai, Bai Yueshan!
How did he become like this?
In the midst of fear, someone knocked on the door suddenly, the clerk opened the door and was about to check, when Sun Qianli went out the door first.

He tried to catch his breath.

A man stood outside the door, sending a letter respectfully.

Sun Qianli frowned and said, "Who is this letter for?"

The man replied: "For your shopkeeper, it was sent by our Da Sikong. Please tell your shopkeeper that our Da Sikong is in the capital."

Who is Da Sikong?
The business has just opened, how could he know our shopkeeper?
Could it be that he and Tsukazai-sama are old acquaintances?
Sun Qianli didn't ask any further questions, he took the letter and said, "I'll accept the letter, please return it."

The man stood at the door without leaving: "Please read this letter immediately, the shopkeeper. I'll wait for the shopkeeper's reply here."

Sun Qianli stared at the man with lingering eyes.

This guy is so rude.

But the man had no fear, and stood at the door expressionlessly.

Sun Qianli handed the letter to Long Xiulian, and whispered a few words in his ear.

Long Xiulian opened the letter and took a look, then put it on the candle and burned it.

"Tell the messenger, let him tell Da Sikong, I agree to this matter."
