I have 99 innate treasures

Chapter 229 Lu Shan
"Lu Qianhu..."

When Lu Shan walked out of the city lord's mansion, Qin Mu, who was walking behind him, suddenly called out to him.

When he turned back, he saw Qin Mu hurriedly walked a few steps in front of him, knelt down and bowed to him, and said, "Thank you Qianhu just now for smoothing things over, otherwise, the city lord's attitude towards me would never have improved..."

Qin Mu's voice paused when he said this, and he sighed: "The atmosphere at that time has become depressing. I will probably be swept out of the yard by the city lord like those merchants."

"It's just a small thing."

Lu Shan smiled and shook his head, and added: "Besides, the city lord will not really get angry with little people like us."

When he finished speaking, he showed a half-smiling look and said, "It's you, don't think it will be easy after you leave the Demon Suppression Division. There will be many headaches for you next."

Qin Mu's face flashed with confusion.

Lu Shan made an invitation gesture and chatted with him while walking.

"For example... the courtyard where you live now was allocated by the Demon Suppression Department. When the Demon Suppression Division is notified of your resignation, that courtyard will be taken back."

And Tang Mubai, whom he could speak to, was not in Guanhai City.

Lu Shan said: "In my opinion, Qiu Fenglai will not only not sell you face, but will also deliberately make things difficult for you to use this matter to establish his authority. And you are strangers to those colleagues, so they don't take the opportunity to ridicule you." It’s just for the sake of their former colleagues, there’s no way you can expect them to intercede for you.”

After hearing this, Qin Mu smiled calmly and said: "I am drunk today, and I will be worried tomorrow. Let's spend today first and talk about the future later."

Then the tone was full of appreciation.

Thinking of this, he decided to give it a try.

"If you live on the street, you will be made difficult by the night watch captain, patrol inspectors, and even chased away. In the end, you will return to the Demon Suppression Department... But this time, it will be an ordinary prison of the Demon Suppression Department."

When Lu Shan said this, he seemed to think of something again, and added: "Qiu Fenglai is a villain who can act according to the circumstances. If there is really an Earth Immortal standing behind you, even if he leaves the Demon Suppression Division, he will not I dare to break up with you, but I will take the initiative to help you cover up some things to please you, for example... suppressing the matters in the courtyard temporarily. "

The moment the words 'Tang Mubai' came to mind, Qin Mu suddenly realized that there was also a Qianhu standing in front of him.

Qin Mu asked with a smile on his face: "I wonder which one Lu Qianhu likes the most among the past poems?"

Qin Mu knew very well that he was just an ordinary flag leader. If there was any ability that could make this Qianhu heard about it... it would most likely be those transcribed poems and songs.

He couldn't help but recall what this Qianhu said to him just now.

"I have heard of your name for a long time, but I have been busy with official duties and have not had the opportunity to meet you..."

If it doesn't work, he can think of another way.

"The houses and real estate in Guanhai City have long been purchased by the monks. Although they may have forgotten that they still have a property in Guanhai City, those unoccupied properties still have owners after all. "

This was the first time Qin Mu heard the news, and his expression suddenly changed.

Qin Mu's brows furrowed deeper and deeper as he listened to Lu Shan's analysis.

When he opened his eyes again and saw Qin Mu approaching some distance away, he knew that he was not the dazzled Cang Bo. He immediately burst into tears and ran towards Qin Mu quickly.

Although there was still a distance between them, Uncle Cang recognized Qin Mu's outline at a glance.

At first, he thought his old eyes were dizzy, and he rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

"You also know about the protests by the merchants. This means that even if you want to stay in an inn or restaurant, you won't be able to find a place."

"Although you are quite wealthy and can buy a good courtyard anywhere in the world besides the Imperial City, Guanhai City has been sealed off for a long time. Even if you are the flag master, you can't get out, let alone you. Has resigned."

"You have a keen mind. Within a moment of meeting me, you already guessed from my words that I had read the poems you copied from dreams."

Since they left the City Lord's Mansion, they had walked some distance while chatting. Now after walking for a while, they could already see the outline of Qin Mansion in the distance.

Qin Mu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "There is no other way."

The closure of Guanhai City happened after Qin Mu was trapped in the Archives Building. The captain who came to the Archives Building to deliver meals to him every day would only put the meals downstairs and never go upstairs, let alone interact with him. communicated.

After thinking this, he slowly raised his head and asked Lu Shan: "Although I haven't thought of a way yet, I suddenly have a question that I want to ask Qianhu."

After that, he spread his hands and said helplessly: "But you are just a commoner. Do you think Qiu Feng will betray you?"

He could choose to reveal the information to Qiu Feng to threaten the other party... But if he did this, he might be slaughtered by the Song people as soon as he said it.

If you choose to ask for help... you can only ask Qi Shayu, but Qiu Fenglai probably won't betray Qi Shayu's face.

Qin Mu is also having a headache about this matter. After all, he has neither connections nor strength. If he wants to cause trouble, there is a Song Tu in the city.

He originally thought that after leaving the Demon Suppression Division, the world would become brighter, but he did not expect that it would be like this.

Qin Mu sighed softly and shook his head slowly.

Lu Shan was startled when he heard this, and then smiled in surprise: "I thought you were going to ask me something, but it turned out that the consultation was just a cover, and you actually targeted me..."

Uncle Cang, who sat on the steps outside the door smoking dry cigarettes every day, waiting for Qin Mu to come home, saw Qin Mu and Lu Shan all the way away.

If this is the case, everyone will be happy.

As he spoke, he put his hand around Qin Mu's shoulders and strode towards the street where Qin's mansion was located.

Lu Shan looked at Qin Mu with a smile on his face, his eyes full of curiosity, wanting to know how Qin Mu would overcome this situation.

Lu Shan nodded and said, "You can ask, but I may not know."

After Lu Shan silently recited the poem "There is wine today, I will be drunk today, and I will be sad tomorrow", he looked at Qin Mu with bright eyes and said happily: "I knew you must have some stock for yourself, let's go Let’s go and help you get through today. I’m really looking forward to what kind of content you will come up with!”

Lu Shan laughed a few times, blinked and said, "I do like those poems, and they can help you get through today, but what about tomorrow? What about the day after tomorrow? Can you come up with content that interests me every day?"

"It would be illegal if you took your whole family and moved into an uninhabited courtyard."

He came to Qin Mu, looked at Qin Mu with a smile on his lips, and immediately grabbed Qin Mu's arms with all his strength, and said with tears streaming down his face: "My boss, you are finally back. I look forward to it during the day, and also at night. Pan, I am always thinking about when you will come back, and every day I am thinking about whether you will be hungry, frozen, or tortured in the Demon Suppression Department. "

"Don't go there again after you come back this time. We are just ordinary people. We have no background or background. You are not good at fighting with others. How can you compete with those smart people?"

"They are all ruthless characters who eat people without spitting out their bones. You can avoid them once, but you can't avoid them again and again."

Qin Mu gently patted Uncle Cang on the back and said with a smile: "I won't go, I won't go anymore. I have resigned from the Demon Suppression Division."

After Uncle Cang finished saying that, he started to laugh because he was so excited and his tears were still flowing.

Now when I heard what he said, he just said the word "good" repeatedly, but could no longer say a coherent sentence. Lu Shan also laughed when he saw the tender scene of an old man and a young man hugging each other.

He established Dayu in the past so that the people would not be oppressed by anyone and smile again.

It's just that since he took charge of the Imperial City, he rarely saw such a scene again.

But after seeing such a scene for a long time, he still felt moved in his heart.

Qin Mu also introduced Lu Shan to Cang Bo at this time, but he did not mention the identity of Qianhu, only saying that he was a friend he had made.

But Cang Bo knew very well that Lu Shan came from the Demon Suppression Division.

After all, his boss has been locked up in the Demon Suppression Department during this period. Apart from the people inside, where else can he make friends with ordinary people.

Therefore, while he showed enthusiasm for Lu Shan, he also felt alienated.

When the group of them returned to the house and saw Butler Liu who was watering the flowers, this man, who usually never stayed outside the door like Uncle Cang, had tears in his eyes when he saw Qin Mu return. Qin Mu asked for help, and then called out his tall and stout mother-in-law, asking her to quickly prepare a table of delicious food.

Cang Ziyu, Cang Ziling and others were not very familiar with Qin Mu. After hearing the noise coming from the yard, they just lay at the window and watched instead of coming out to greet him.

Lu Shan just glanced at them casually and immediately saw that the four of them had spiritual roots and had begun to draw energy.

However, they were disciples of Cangshan Old Demon, so he didn't care about it.

Uncle Cang knew that this was not the time to reminisce about old times. After introducing Qin Mu and Lu Shan into the study, he hurriedly boiled water to make tea for them.

Even though Qin Mu hadn't been home for half a month, his room was still spotlessly clean. There was still a burner of incense burning on his desk with more than a dozen books stacked on top of it, and the pots of green plants in front of the window were also lit. The flowers that have been taken care of are flourishing and full of business.

Qin Mu sniffed the faint fragrance wafting in the room, and couldn't help showing a relaxed look on his face. He subconsciously murmured: "Sure enough, whether it is a gold nest or a silver nest, it is far inferior to his own doghouse."

When Lu Shan walked to the desk and heard what he said, he couldn't help laughing, but he also felt that it made sense.

No matter how extravagantly the Qianqing Hall was decorated, in his eyes, it was still not as good as the woodshed where he lived when he was a child, or the ruined temple with Lu Zhong lying outside the door.

Thinking of the past, he couldn't help but look sentimental, and then he sat on the chair and looked curiously at the dozen books on the long desk.

Qin Mu moved another chair from the side and placed it on the other side of the desk. He stretched out his hand to hold the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of him. While sharpening the ink, he said with a smile: "These books are for those who can't sleep at night. Check it out to pass the time."

When Lu Shan nodded slightly, he asked curiously: "I have always been curious, what is it like in fairyland?"

Qin Mu was startled when he heard this, and then smiled helplessly.

He now regrets copying the poems, but without those poems, he would not have attracted the attention of so many important people.

At this moment, facing Lu Shan's question, he could only make it up.

But in order to allow Lu Shan to stay at his house for a few more days, he also deliberately started to guide him in the direction he knew best.

"In fact, in the fairyland you enter in a dream, the environment is rarely the same."

"Sometimes it is in the pavilions among the sea of ​​clouds, sometimes it is in the deep mountains and old forests, and sometimes I see a strange world."

Lu Shan became more curious after hearing this and continued to ask: "How strange? But it is different from Dayu?"

Qin Mu smacked his lips, with a look of reminiscence on his face, and said, "How should I put it... It was a world without monks, without magical powers, without magic, and all were mortals."

When Lu Shan heard what he said, his eyes immediately lit up and he even began to be impatient.

"Let's hear what he said whether he made it up on the spot. If there really is such a world, I wonder if Dayu can imitate it..."

While thinking about this in his mind, he also asked, "If there are no monks, no magical powers, no magic, and all are mortals, wouldn't the efficiency of doing things be greatly reduced?"

Qin Mu shook his head and said: "Although they don't have these, they can use various tools to improve the efficiency of their work."

After saying this, he dipped his pen in ink and sketched the outline of the water wheel on the paper. During this period, Lu Shan stared at the pattern on the paper without blinking.

After Qin Mu briefly sketched the waterwheel pattern in an instant, he turned the paper over and showed it to Lu Shan.

"For example, this object, called a waterwheel, can use the power of flowing water to rotate the 'buckets' on the vehicle, thereby passing water through pipes and guiding the water to the fields."

Lu Shan stared at the pattern on the paper. After hearing Qin Mu's introduction, he nodded repeatedly and said: "Wonderful, indeed wonderful. This thing can directly eliminate the need for clouds and rain."

After he finished speaking, he immediately took out a piece of green metal that exuded gleaming light from the storage room. After softening the metal with one finger, he enthusiastically started to play with the dough-like metal according to the pattern on the paper.

After a while, he pinched out a waterwheel that was more sophisticated than the simple waterwheel pattern on the paper.

The moment the waterwheel was built by him, majestic luck and merit were immediately bestowed upon him by the Tao, entering his body like an initiation.

Because his luck and merit were so great, his face turned quite rosy, as if he was drunk.

Qin Mu's current cultivation level comes from luck, and he can naturally sense this majestic and vast luck and merit.

But before he could be surprised by the sudden appearance of luck, he realized that Lu Shan had wiped away the traces of luck the moment he got it, and did not let any trace of it escape!

This method made him secretly frightened, and he began to doubt Lu Shan's identity.

As for Qianhu, there is no such way to control luck!
At this moment, rapid footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.

When Qin Mu turned his head subconsciously, he saw Uncle Cang pushing open the door in a panic.

"My boss, a group of people from the Demon Suppression Department suddenly came outside the courtyard. I have asked Butler Liu to stop them!"

"Hurry up and jump over the wall with this young man and leave!"

"If it's too late, they'll rush in!"

After hearing these words, Qin Mu asked dumbfounded: "Why did you jump over the wall and run away?"

Uncle Cang was stunned and said in astonishment: "Didn't you escape from the Demon Suppression Department?"

Qin Mu asked with a smile: "How did you know that I escaped?"

Uncle Cang blinked, "If you hadn't escaped, why would a group of people from the Demon Suppression Department come to block the door as soon as you entered?"

After Lu Shan heard the conversation between the two of them, he was a little bit dumbfounded. He then took out a palm-sized golden token from his arms and said to Uncle Cang: "Uncle Cang, give this token to the Demon Suppression Division outside the door. One look and they will leave.”

Uncle Cang glanced at Qin Mu, and after seeing him nodding slightly, he walked into the room, took the token from Lu Shan, and left with a suspicious look on his face.
