Chapter 44 Fish Skin Umbrella

After the boat landed, the crowd standing on the dock immediately became agitated.

Before Yunzhu got off the boat, they had already rushed onto the boat in a swarm, dragging big and small bags on their backs, as if they were moving the whole family.

Falcon night asked the boatman to arrange the guests first, and then send Yunzhu off the boat.

"In the future, if you need a place for Falcon, just ask. This is the place where I often stay. If you encounter any difficulties, you can go to these places, just mention my name to the people inside. We will meet again in the future." Falcon Night Send Yunzhu a letter.

"Okay." Yun Zhu took the letter and said goodbye to him.

Walking all the way towards the city gate, Yunzhu met many people, especially when she heard that a big ship was docking, she even ran towards the pier.

"Is it ominous?" Yun Zhu looked at the crowd leaving the family and touched the white jade bracelet on her wrist. She was really not afraid to go anywhere because she had a place to protect herself.

Yunzhu entered Dunxia Mansion, no pedestrians could be seen on the street, and all the houses and shops were locked.

"It's really not easy to find a place to stay." Yunzhu said to herself, and then took out the sign Chi'e gave her, which said - Xiaoyaoju.

Looking around, there was no shadow of Xiaoyaoju, so he continued to move forward.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she saw an old man selling umbrellas at a street stall.

Busyly went over to inquire: "Old man, let me ask you a place, how to get to Xiaoyaoju?"

"Xiaoyaoju, go all the way to the end, and you will see it. Girl, should you buy an umbrella? It has been handed down from the ancestors for 400 years, and it is durable, and it can also keep out the sun and rain." The old man picked up a solid fish skin umbrella and handed it To Yunzhu.

The vicissitudes on his face and the look of longing for her to buy this umbrella moved Yunzhu.She looked down at the remaining umbrellas on the street stall, "There are six umbrellas in total, give them to me, the old man will go home earlier."

"You want girls?" The old man was very surprised.

Yun Zhu nodded, "All of them. By the way, sir, what happened in Dunxia Mansion? I think many people on the pier have left."

"Girl is kind, are you from another place?"

"Yes."

The old man put all the umbrellas into a basket and tied them up carefully, "Since you call me the old man, then listen to the old man's persuasion and go back quickly, this Dunxia mansion can't stay here."

"why?"

"If it's someone else, I won't say anything. In the Dunxia Mansion, there are monsters and ghosts haunting the border of the West Land. The gate of hell has opened!"

"The frontier of the west, the gate of hell?"

The old man is also a talkative person, anyway, the umbrellas are sold out, so he simply chatted with Yunzhu.

To say that Yunzhu really found the right person, this old man has lived in Dunxia Mansion for eight generations, so he can be said to be a living historical family of Dunxia Mansion.

The puppet city on the border of the West Land, where people and ghosts live together, is not alarmist, because this place is a land of yin and yang.It was originally the stronghold for the underworld's underworld messengers to work in the underworld, and the location of the puppet city is the underworld's ghost gate.

Later, for a period of time, the gate of ghosts was closed, the ghosts of Yin disappeared, and the land of Yin and Yang became the land of Yang.People discovered that the frontier of the West Land was originally a treasure land, especially the puppet city, and there was a gold mine under it. There were many gold diggers, and gradually people settled here.

But the good times didn't last long. After 300 years, the gate of ghosts in the puppet city opened again, and ghosts ate the living.The puppet city people began to flee.In the end, only some strange people and strangers who subdued ghosts and demons remained, and over time, the puppet city became a situation where humans and ghosts coexist today.

But there is one thing that won't scare people too much, that is, ghosts only wreak havoc on the border of the West Land, and big ghosts only live in Puppet City.

Although there are some ghosts and ghosts in Dunxia Mansion, they are just small fish and shrimps, and the government servants are basically solved.

But it's not a problem to be so worried all the time, so everyone can go if they can.

After the old man sold the umbrellas, he had to rush home to pack his things and go to his daughter's house five hundred miles away to avoid the limelight.

When it's more peaceful, they will come back.

Yun Zhu thought of the Yun family in the puppet city, is it also a family of strangers?
Carrying a basket of fish skin umbrellas, Yun Zhu went to Xiaoyaoju in the direction the old man said.

When we got there, it turned out that the inn was still open.

Yunzhu entered the inn.

There were only a few people in the lobby, and they were still dressed in bunts, and they looked like they were practicing martial arts.

The clerk immediately came up to meet her, saw that she was carrying a basket of umbrellas, thought she was coming in to sell things, and said, "Miss, come back, there are some distinguished customers in the store today, so don't dare to bump into her."

"...I'm staying in a hotel."

"Ah? Staying in the hotel, I'm sorry, our inn is booked."

Yunzhu took out the signboard given by Chi'e, "What about this?"

The clerk's face suddenly changed, "It's a small one with blind eyes, please come to the distinguished guests." Immediately, he welcomed Yunzhu into the private room very respectfully.

Just after entering, a person came out of the private room next door.

He Rong called the waiter, "Bring three more jars of wine."

"Okay, wait a moment, guest officer." The man responded.

And Yun Zhu, who had just entered the private room, suddenly froze, this voice...why does it sound familiar!

It's just that she met too many people these days, and she couldn't remember who it was.

"Bring me a pot of Huaxiang snow snails."

"Okay, honored guest, wait a moment. Here is the recipe, take your time, the little ones will make tea first." The man left in a hurry.

After casually ordering a few home-cooked dishes, Yunzhu took out a fish skin umbrella from the basket.The umbrella rib is made of mahogany, and the name of the craftsman—Zhang Qiyue—and the seal are engraved on it, which is very particular.

The man came in with the brewed tea, and happened to see the umbrella in her hand, "Oh, I didn't see clearly just now, this is Mr. Zhang's fish skin umbrella."

"Oh? I did buy it from an old man." Yun Zhu replied.

"This old man's fish skin umbrella has something to say. The umbrella bone is more than 30 years old mahogany, which can ward off evil spirits. The fish skin on the umbrella surface is a ferocious rib fish that is more than ten years old. It is difficult for even an old fisherman to catch it. Yes. Therefore, it depends on fate to be able to buy this umbrella. If you can buy six umbrellas at once, you are lucky."

"I just saw that the old man was squatting on the side of the road and no one bought it. I thought he could go back earlier, so I covered everything. It's really not cheap."

Ordinary umbrellas are only a few pennies, this one is 20 taels of silver, and six 120 taels.

"Your kind guest, Mr. Zhang's umbrellas usually start at 50 taels. How much did you spend for these six umbrellas?"

"...One hundred." She still earned feelings, Yun Zhu was a little surprised.

The man was very surprised and couldn't help but enviously said: "Your guest is very lucky."

Yunzhu handed the umbrella to the buddy, "I'll give you one."

She can't support six umbrellas by herself, since he knows the goods, there is no harm in giving them to him.

The clerk was taken aback for a moment, but then flattered and flattered, he declined, "Thank you, the little one has an umbrella, and such a precious umbrella can only complement each other if the honored guest holds it. The little one will pass the dishes to the honored guest first."

"Take it." Yun Zhu still threw the umbrella to him.
