Chapter 297 There is an inn, the storyteller is a god!
1500
May.

On the sea, Lu Yan stood on the deck of the sea ship and looked ahead, and finally saw the land faintly.

After seeing the land, Xie Zhuoyan couldn't help sighing and said, "I finally saw the land."

"This month seems to pass longer than a year."

After passing through the storm, she thought that she would reach the Great Qin Empire soon.

But no one thought that they drifted on the sea for more than a month, until now they could faintly see the land.

Lu Yan smiled slightly, and said to Xie Zhuoyan: "It's because we haven't deviated from the sailing direction. If we deviate, it's not as simple as drifting for a month."

Lu Yan predicted that they should be able to dock tonight.

As for where they will arrive in the Great Qin Empire after landing, they don't know.

Time passed in a hurry, and soon came the night.

At this time, Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan finally saw the whole picture of the land clearly.

There are continuous houses near the sea, and the road is flat, like a port, but also like a huge city.

Xie Zhuoyan was a little surprised, and said, "This is a city near the sea? But why can't you see the city wall? And it looks very prosperous."

Just as Xie Zhuoyan was speaking, Lu Yan suddenly shifted the direction of the ship.

Xie Zhuoyan asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly change direction?"

Lu Yan glanced at the direction of the port, shook his head and said, "We can't go to the port."

Xie Zhuoyan glanced at the empty port, and asked puzzledly, "Why?"

Lu Yan pointed to the sea surface not far away, and said, "There is a huge monster over there."

Xie Zhuoyan looked in the direction Lu Yan pointed at, but saw nothing but the sky and the sea.

Lu Yan explained: "It was covered up by a strange technique, and it didn't show up."

"If we go up to it, it's no different from hitting a stone with a pebble."

The sea ship they took was already the largest and most luxurious sea ship that the Tang Empire could manufacture.

But compared with the huge monster hidden in the spell, in terms of size, it is really the difference between a stone and a mountain.

If he guessed correctly, this should be a mirage!
It was Yingzheng who spent a huge amount of money to build a huge building boat in order for Yun Zhongjun Xu Fu to go to sea to seek the elixir of life!
The boys and girls who went with Xu Fu are also the ancestors of the Japanese pirates in the legend.

At this time, their ship had run aground on the shore, and Lu Yan had already jumped off the ship.

But Xie Zhuoyan was still turning around every step of the way.

But no matter how hard she tried to look, she couldn't see the huge monster that Lu Yan was talking about.

Perhaps this is the difference between a celestial being and a true immortal.

After the two went ashore, they moved forward all the way, and it didn't take long before they came to the city.

It was late at night, and the street was empty and there was no one there.

Xie Zhuoyan looked at the surrounding environment with novel eyes, and asked, "Where are we going?"

Lu Yan looked around and said, "There should be an inn here, let's look for it."

Xie Zhuoyan followed Lu Yan all the way forward.

After a while, I passed two inns.

Xie Zhuoyan asked with some doubts: "Why didn't you go to the two inns just now?"

Lu Yan said, "What I'm looking for is an inn."

While speaking, Lu Yan pointed to an inn on the left side of the street.

Xie Zhuoyan looked in the direction Lu Yan pointed, and sure enough, he saw an inn called "Youjian Inn".

Seeing an inn, Xie Zhuoyan was very surprised and said: "There is such a strange name."

Lu Yan smiled and said, "Let's go, we don't have identity certificates, customs clearance guides and other things, it's not good to be discovered."

While speaking, Lu Yan had already walked to the door of Youjian Inn.

It's just that the inn was closed at this time and the door was not opened.

Lu Yan raised his hand and patted the door of the inn, and said, "Is anyone there?"

Not long after, a rough cry came from the inn.

"Wait a minute."

creak.

Not long after, the door of the inn was opened from the inside.

A fat, bearded man stood at the door, looking up and down at Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan.

Looking at the costumes on them that were somewhat different from those of the Great Qin Empire, he asked, "You two guests, are you here to stay?"

Lu Yan nodded and said, "Please prepare a room for us, thank you."

The big man stepped aside and said, "Please come in."

Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan walked into the inn. At this time, there were no lights in the inn, so it looked very dark.

The big man walked in front, led Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan into the upper room, and said, "You two have a good rest."

Lu Yan glanced at the big man, then handed out an ingot of gold.

Seeing that Lu Yan made such a generous move, the big man was a little surprised and said, "Are you staying here for a long time?"

Lu Yan nodded with a smile, and said, "I will ask the manager to take care of you in the future."

Jin Jin, the big man's subordinate, smiled honestly, touched his head and said, "Haha, it's easy to say, my surname is Ding, and you can call me Shopkeeper Ding or Fatty Ding."

Lu Yan responded: "I'm going to Lu Yan, this is Xie Zhuoyan, a bitch."

Pao Ding said with a simple smile, "Hello everyone, then I won't bother you."

After saying that, Pao Ding walked downstairs.

When he came to a place where no one was around, Pao Ding looked back at the upper room where Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan lived.

At this time, the door of the room has been closed and the lights have been turned off, so it must be rest.

"Lu Yan, Xie Zhuoyan? It doesn't look like Qin."

"I have to find a way to talk to them tomorrow."

……

Early the next morning.

Lu Yan got up early and wanted to go out to see the situation.

As for Xie Zhuoyan, at this time he was practicing cross-legged exercises and doing daily morning exercises.

When Lu Yan came to the inn lobby, there were no guests in the inn yet.

Only a tall, thin young man was cleaning the table.

Lu Yan walked over, looking at a handsome guy with half of his face covered by bangs, and said, "Dude, have a bowl of porridge."

The man glanced at Lu Yan and said, "Okay, please wait a moment, sir."

Lu Yan looked at the figure of the man leaving, and smiled without saying a word.

Not long after, the waiter came back with a bowl of hot white rice porridge, and put the porridge in front of Lu Yan.

The buddy was about to get busy with other things, when Lu Yan suddenly said, "Dude, sit down, I'll ask you something."

The clerk didn't sit down, but stood aside and said, "What does the guest officer want to ask?"

Lu Yan pointed to the outside and asked, "Do you have a storyteller here?"

Storyteller?

The guy froze for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know what a storyteller is."

Lu Yan thought for a while, probably during the Qin Dynasty, storytelling hadn't become popular yet, so there was no business as a storyteller.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Shi Lan."

Lu Yan nodded slightly, and said, "Please go and invite your shopkeeper."

Soon, this guy named Shi Lan went to invite Pao Ding.

Seeing Pao Ding, Lu Yan said with a smile, "Master Ding, I want to discuss something with you."

Pao Ding laughed and said: "Guest officer, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Lu Yan said, "I want to tell a book in your inn."

Pao Ding was stunned for a moment, and asked with some doubts: "Storytelling?"

Lu Yan nodded and said, "When the guests are eating, I will tell the stories to the guests and make them have some fun."

After hearing Lu Yan's explanation, Pao Ding said with a smile, "It sounds interesting."

"If Mr. Lu wants to tell a story, it's not impossible, but what do you need me to do with you?"

Lu Yan smiled slightly and replied, "Just give me a slightly higher table, and I will prepare the rest myself."

Pao Ding said: "It's easy to talk, I'll make arrangements for you."

Pao Ding's work efficiency was very fast, and it didn't take long before he moved a high platform into the lobby and placed it in an open space.

Lu Yan personally built a table and a chair.

When Pao Ding saw the novel table and chair brought by Lu Yan, he couldn't help showing surprise on his face.

Lu Yan looked at the surprised expression on Pao Ding's face, and said with a smile: "Although it is said to do as the Romans do, I am not used to kneeling."

When Pao Ding heard Lu Yan's words, he asked curiously, "Master Lu is not from Qin?"

Lu Yan nodded, and replied frankly, "I came from the sea."

When Pao Ding heard this, he gave Lu Yan a subtle look.

Although his martial arts are not very powerful, his eyesight is extremely powerful.

Usually, you can tell the details of a person's martial arts just by looking at it.

But when he looked at Lu Yan at this time, he felt that Lu Yan was a pure ordinary person.

"Am I thinking too much?"

Pao Ding was a little puzzled.

After everything was ready, Lu Yan began to patiently wait for the guests to come.

Because of Pao Ding's excellent culinary skills, there are not a few guests who usually come to the inn to eat.

After the guests arrived, they were all very curious about Lu Yan who suddenly appeared in the lobby.

And this curiosity was mainly because of the high platform under Lu Yan and the strangely shaped tables and chairs.

Lu Yan waited patiently. Seeing that there were more and more guests in the lobby, he picked up the gavel and slapped it!
Snapped!
The loud sound of the gavel hitting the table immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Lu Yan, with doubts on their faces.

What is this scholar doing?

Facing everyone's suspicious eyes, Lu Yan smiled slightly, and said loudly: "Guest officers, I'm going to Lu Yan, a storyteller who came from the east."

"I'm here today to bring you a story. If you think it's interesting, those who have money will give it a go, and those who don't have money will give it a go."

"I would like to thank you all in advance."

When everyone heard Lu Yan's words, their faces showed curiosity.

Even Pao Ding came out from the back kitchen, wanting to see what Lu Yan was planning to tell the story.

Xie Zhuoyan had also finished her morning exercise at this time, and was leaning on the fence on the second floor, looking at Lu Yan with a smile.

She was also very curious about what story Lu Yan would tell this time.

Lu Yan cleared his throat, and said in a loud voice: "Pangu was first divided into chaos, Tai Chi, two rituals and four images were suspended, Zitian Chou, and people came out, avoiding beasts and Chaoxian..."

Lu Yan was not in a hurry, and his tone of voice was cadenced.

Everyone listened and found that what Lu Yan said seemed to happen a long time ago.

It sounds like the Shang and Zhou dynasties?
"Chengtang is the descendant of the Yellow Emperor, and his surname is Zishi."

"Jiandi, the second concubine of the first emperor Ku, prayed to Gao, and had the auspiciousness of a black horse, so she gave birth to a deed..."

When everyone heard this, some knowledgeable people had basically concluded that what Lu Yan was going to talk about happened in the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

There are some records about this period of history, but there are really not many people who have read these records and understood this period of history.

So when they heard that Lu Yan was going to tell the story of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, everyone immediately became interested.

Even Pao Ding couldn't care less about cooking, so he leaned on the door frame and listened seriously.

"Everyone, the story we are going to tell today begins with King Zhou of Shang."

"It is said that one day, King Zhou went to the palace in the early morning, and hundreds of civil and military officials gathered together."

"King Zhou sat high in the Golden Luan Hall and said: If there is a memorial, there will be a class, and if there is nothing to do, it will be dismissed."

"As King Zhou's voice fell, I saw a person from the right class appearing. It was Shang Rong, the virtuous minister in charge of ritual and music."

"Shang Rong spoke to King Zhou, asking King Zhou to come to Nuwa Palace to offer incense on March [-]th, the birthday of Empress Nuwa."

"King Zhou thinks that Nuwa has no merits and virtues. He is the Emperor of Man, the Lord of Ten Thousand Vehicles, so there is no need to go to Nuwa's Palace to offer incense."

"Fortunately, although Shang Rong is old, he is eloquent. He immediately persuaded King Zhou with Nuwa's achievements in mending the sky, and King Zhou agreed to go to offer incense."

"As for King Zhou, it's fine if he doesn't go to Nuwa Palace to offer incense, but this offering caused chaos!"

Having said that, Lu Yan paused for a while, picked up the wine glass in front of him and sang softly.

This made the guests sitting below anxious.

They were still waiting to hear why King Zhou caused such chaos, why did he stop?
Lu Yan smiled slightly, and continued, "The next day, King Zhou left the palace and was escorted by King Wucheng Huang Feihu all the way to Nuwa Palace."

"King Zhou entered Nuwa's palace and saw the gorgeousness of Nuwa's palace. He was admiring the scenery when suddenly a gust of wind blew up and rolled up the curtains, revealing the statue of Nuwa."

"I saw that the statue of Nuwa has a beautiful appearance, and the auspicious colors are beautiful and celestial, just like a fairy in the Palace of Ruis."

"There is an old saying: when a country is about to prosper, there must be auspiciousness; when a country is about to perish, there must be monsters."

"King Zhou saw Nuwa's stunning beauty, and he was so fascinated that he became obsessive!"

"He thought to himself: I am the emperor, rich in the world, but there is no one in the three palaces and six courtyards that is more beautiful than Nuwa!"

"Soon he ordered people to take the Four Treasures of the Study and write a poem on the wall of Nuwa Palace."

"The scenery of the Fengluan treasure tent is very special, full of lacquered gold and delicate makeup, the songs and songs of the distant mountains are flying emerald, and the dancing sleeves reflect the clouds."

"Pear blossoms bring rain to compete for beauty, and peony cages smoke and make up charmingly, but they are enchanting and able to move, and take back Changle to serve the king."

"Shang Rong, who was standing by the side, quickly dissuaded: Nuwa is the righteous god of the ancient times, the blessing of Chaoge, how can he use obscene poems to blaspheme, this is to offend Nuwa!"

"Shang Rong wanted to wash off the ink stains on the wall with water, but King Zhou refused."

"In his opinion, he just wanted our Nuwa's peerless beauty when he wrote a poem, and he has no other intentions."

"Leave his calligraphy here so that the common people will know how he, the emperor, praises Empress Nuwa."

"King Zhou is determined to go his own way, and business tolerance is hard to persuade, so he can only remain silent."

"Let's say that on March [-]th, Empress Nuwa's Christmas, Empress went to Huoyun Palace to pay homage to Fuxi Yan Emperor Xuanyuan Sanyuan and came back, so she went to this Nuwa Palace."

"The empress is sitting in the treasure hall, and when she looked up, she saw the poem written on the wall, and she was furious immediately."

"The empress scolded: Yin Shou has no way to fool the emperor, he doesn't want to cultivate his morals to protect the world, but now he is not afraid of heaven, and sings poems to insult me, it is very abominable!"

"I want to become Tang Fajie and rule the world. I have lived in the country for more than [-] years, and I am exhausted. If I don't repay him, I won't see my inspiration."

Lu Yan said this with a ventriloquist imitating the tone of Empress Nuwa.

And silently released a little breath in the posture of a real fairy.

The guests who were listening to the book in the lobby immediately had the feeling of facing the true God, and they were all shocked!

"Empress Nuwa went straight to Chaoge to teach King Zhou a lesson."

"But King Zhou is the Emperor of Man, and he has the luck of the race. Even if Empress Nuwa has great supernatural powers, there is nothing she can do about it."

"Empress Nuwa was displeased, but she didn't want to let King Zhou go like this, so she went back to the palace and summoned three thousand-year-old monsters with magic weapons!"

"One of the three demons is a thousand-year-old vixen spirit, the other is a nine-headed pheasant spirit, and the other is a jade pipa spirit. They all knelt down in front of Empress Nuwa and dared not do anything wrong."

"The Empress Nuwa said to the three demons: Chengtang's luck is sad, and the world should be lost. Fengming Qishan, the Western Zhou Dynasty has given birth to the Holy Lord. This is the will of God that cannot be violated."

"You three monsters can hide your monster form, entrust yourself to King Zhou's harem, confuse the army's morale, and help King Wu defeat Zhou."

"You don't harm sentient beings, and when King Wu achieves success, you can also achieve a positive result!"

"The three demons kowtowed their heads to thank them, and turned into a breeze and left."

"On the other hand, because King Zhou saw Nuwa's beauty after offering incense, he thought about it day and night and was depressed."

"One day, King Zhou asked the courtiers around him, no one in the Three Palaces and Six Courts could match the beauty of Nuwa, how could he get such a beauty as Nuwa?"

"The courtier Fei Zhong immediately said: Your Majesty is the Lord of Ten Thousand Vehicles, rich in the world, worthy of Yao and Shun, and everything in the world belongs to Your Majesty. As long as Your Majesty passes on an order to let the princes of the four routes present a hundred beauties in each town, it will definitely be done. It can satisfy His Majesty's wishes."

"King Zhou was very happy to hear Fei Zhong's proposal. He immediately made a decision to issue a decree tomorrow morning to order the world to select beauties for the harem!"

Having said that, Lu Yan picked up his wine glass again and took a shallow sip.

When everyone in the audience saw Lu Yan drinking, they waited patiently for Lu Yan to continue talking.

But Lu Yan seems to be a little bit too drunk with this wine.

"This... Storyteller, why don't you say anything?"

Finally, someone couldn't help but asked aloud.

Lu Yan smiled slightly, raised his hand to grab the gavel and patted it, and said loudly: "This is the end of today's storytelling. You all know what will happen next, why don't you come back tomorrow."

Everyone was stunned when they heard Lu Yan's words.

This is working hard, is it gone?
How long did it take to talk!
Lu Yan looked helplessly at the crowd.

There are really not many customers today, and not many popularity points are obtained.

For the past two days, I will say less for the time being. When there are more guests, I will say a few more paragraphs.

He is also for the popularity value, there is no way.
