I am a fairy in the world of mortals

Chapter 2: The young novice sells the gold cave to earn a future

Ten miles of spring breeze, two bright moons, Ruixian flew down from the Qiong Tower.

The especially warm wind blew open the reed flowers and made the colorful flags on the roof flutter extraordinarily.

The aroma from Tongyung Pavilion made passers-by mesmerized, and they couldn't help but slow down their steps. The boatman who was punting the boat passed by on the waterway in front of the door, and subconsciously took two more puffs of dry cigarettes, and then suppressed the unreasonable feeling in his heart. Throbbing.

A group of young monks, who looked to be no more than twelve or thirteen years old, were squatting on the river, like a crescent moon at the end of the bridge, like Buddha turtles in the wishing pool, looking up at the Tongyang Pavilion in trance. , shaking their heads and sighing in unison from time to time.

Looking at these young monks who do not abide by the rules, people who know the inside story can't help but let out a chuckle that does not contain much malice.

The fair cheeks of the young monks seemed to have been splashed with bright red paint, and they lowered their heads one after another.

These are reserve monks from Qingyang Temple in the west of the city who have not yet been naturalized. To put it simply, they have just shaved their heads. They have no formal official status, let alone the martial arts of Qingyang Temple.

The entry test of Qingyang Temple is particularly weird and somewhat apostate. It is not a serious monk temple.

"How long has Li Lang been in there?" A handsome young monk, who obviously looked like a boy or a girl, asked anxiously, looking up at his white face.

Another young monk, who was a bit stockier and had a rather heroic spirit, joked and said with a smile: "What? After just a while, I already miss you as my brother?"

"The day before yesterday, when I was beaten out with sticks by the turtle slaves from Tongyong Pavilion, I didn't see you in any hurry."

The delicate little monk's cheeks turned red again, and he lowered his head and whispered: "I... I also went to Yaowang Pavilion to find medicine for you, but when I came back, I found that you were already fully recovered."

Hearing this, the young monk with a heroic spirit raised his arms proudly, showing off some muscles: "Of course everything is fine. Master Huikong said that I was born with three orifices opened, and I have a unique copper skin." Iron bones.”

Hearing this, the other young monks around him started to praise and praise him as usual.

On the contrary, the heroic young monk sighed again.

A talent like his would be worth cultivating in any other sect.

There is only Qingyang Temple.

If you can't pass the entry test, you won't be able to learn martial arts, and you'll just waste your time.

······
In the Nuang Pavilion to the west of Tongyuan Pavilion, a young monk dressed in gray is sitting opposite a middle-aged woman with heavy makeup. Next to him are two muscular monks wearing short shirts and small green felt hats. Turtle slave.

The turtle slaves raised in a Gold Selling Cave of Tongyuge's size are not just thugs and guards.

Facing the unkind looks of the two turtle slaves, Li Lang looked at the surrounding furnishings rather unscrupulously, his eyes full of curiosity.

It is decorated with pale pink gauze curtains, sandalwood-colored furniture, with pictures of gorgeous beauties, colorful lanterns that rotate with the exquisite mechanical design, and some exquisite bonsai placed on the balcony and windows.

Overall, it's pretty good, but... it's not very tasteful. It doesn't have the elegance to elevate the style, but it's not clear enough in terms of ambiguity, making it seem a bit out of place.

There is no restless feeling that makes people's hearts beat faster and thoughts abound as soon as they walk in and before the main show begins.

Based on Li Lang's experience in his previous life, the importance of a good atmosphere is even far greater than the strength of the technical workers themselves.

The madam looked at the drawings in his hand, and with his rich experience, he could barely understand the meaning.

"It does look good, but this is a huge renovation cost. Not only the renovation cost, but the cost of lost work during the renovation period must also be calculated."

"We run Tong Ying Ge on a small scale, and all the girls earn are hard-earned money. There are hundreds of people living in Tong Ying Ge. Every day, people eat horse chews, which is a huge amount. How can we withstand such a waste?" The old bustard said He said in a tone of refusal.

After Tongyunge opens every night, even if there are not so many customers, the vacancy rate of rooms is still extremely low.

Yangzhou Prefecture is an important town in the southeast of the Qian Kingdom. It is bounded by the Jun River and the Xiang River. There is an endless stream of ships traveling from south to north, and wealthy merchants gather there.

Even if Tongyuge doesn't even rank in the top ten on the Yangzhou Fengyue Chart, the business is definitely not bad.

Under this premise, even if the redecoration may bring higher profits, compared with the losses, it seems a bit difficult to choose.

Li Lang seemed to have expected such an answer. He picked up the tea bowl in a leisurely manner, put it to his mouth and blew lightly. Then he happily took a sip of the warm tea and felt a little warm all over his body.

The tea used by Tongyang Pavilion to entertain guests is much better than the thin tea used by Qingyang Temple to entertain pilgrims and believers.

"There is no need to make any major changes. I still have some small tricks here. I'll allow you to exchange ten taels of silver for one."

"I guarantee that after the change, the net worth of the girls in the building will double." Li Lang said confidently.

The drawings are just a stepping stone. Without those ingeniously designed drawings that will lead to clues at a glance, how would the madam listen to his nonsense?
Not to mention an idea costing ten taels of silver.

From the land of fireworks, earning hundreds of taels of incense and silver alone without any external help is the entry test of Qingyang Temple.

Not only that, the temple also stipulates that the precepts must not be broken to damage the boy's body and leak the vitality, so as to prevent some young monks from becoming a flower boy in order to get started, even if they follow the wrong path.

Yuan Yang Qi refers to a stream of pure spiritual energy when the body is clean and undamaged. No matter where the body is broken, it will be leaked.

You must know that Jinjin Cave is not a charity house. You can only collect money from inside, but there is no reason to spit out money in vain?
What's more, it's still a hundred taels. Even if there are a few sisters who want to form a good relationship, they hope to be protected by Buddha and Bodhisattva and find peace of mind.

The price of this peace of mind is too high.

Not to mention one hundred taels of silver, even one hundred copper coins was too much. "Oh? Tell me about it!" The madam's eyes brightened slightly and she said casually.

Li Lang said: "Just open a small slit in this window, and then put a puppet like a shadow puppet behind the window. When the light shines on the window, the figure is revealed, but it seems like someone is peeping outside the window, with anger simmering."

Upon hearing this, the old bustard just had a thought in his mind and immediately said: "Wonderful! It's really wonderful!"

She is also a veteran in the entertainment industry, how could she not know the secrets involved?
But she was also curious, how could such a young monk, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, know so many tricks?
Could it be...the origin of family education? Confused?

Considering the rumors about Qingyang Temple, it is not impossible.

Turtle slaves in brothels sometimes need to enter the house and play the role of fake husbands.

That big and round figure, but standing there helplessly, is the best medicine for some people with unique quirks.

Of course, more people probably can’t let go.

Therefore, Li Lang's little method of "hiding one's ears and stealing the bell" can satisfy quite a few people's hobbies that they hide deep in their hearts but dare not reveal to others.

"Is there any more?" the madam asked hurriedly.

Such 'little ways' are beneficial but costless, so naturally the more the better.

Li Lang did not answer happily, but spread his hands: "Twelve!"

The old bustard's face froze, and a turtle slave behind him shouted angrily: "You little thief is bald, how dare you ask for money?"

As expected, they are the ones who run the brothel, and no one understands Bai (Pu) better than them.

Li Lang didn't panic, and just said: "If you use sticks to force me, I will naturally know everything and tell you everything. But the secret of this, I turned around and walked out, but it will be spread throughout Yangzhou Mansion." "

"Besides, the pictures I gave you are missing some key mechanisms and props. Even if you look at the drawings, you can't make them."

"As for keeping me directly, you don't even dare to think about it. Although the great monks of Qingyang Temple will not interfere with the assessment of the young novice, if I am bullied to death, the great monks will not really ignore it. "

Li Lang did his homework before coming.

The boss of Tong Ying Pavilion is this old bustard, but he just took 40% of his share to pay tribute to a certain captain of Yangzhou Prefecture.

It's a bit of a background, but not a big deal.

Qingyang Temple occupies a mountain outside the city, and its actions are somewhat deviant, but it has not been labeled as evil, which shows that it can resist the trouble.

Li Lang didn't know whether the great monk in the temple would stand out.

He bet that the madam wouldn't dare give it a try just for such a small profit.

Sure enough, the madam's originally sullen face was filled with smiles.

On the face covered with makeup, there is still a hint of the charm of the past, but it has also been invaded by philistines and viciousness, and there is not even half of it's beauty.

"Go! Get a hundred taels of silver over here! Give it to the young master as incense money." Now that the old bustard had been 'persuaded', he became more generous.

She also knew that the entry test of Qingyang Temple required one hundred taels of worldly silver.

Soon, the turtle slave brought a plate full of silver on a tray covered with red silk. Although it was variegated and not as white and bright as the official silver, it was enough for introduction.

What Qingyang Temple wants is this process, not the one hundred taels of silver.

If you can get started with money, some wealthy families are willing to invest and send the children of the family's concubines to Qingyang Temple to learn martial arts.

There are countless martial arts schools in the world.

But martial arts that are truly inherited and capable of reaching a high level of enlightenment are not considered bad.

Within a thousand miles of Yangzhou Prefecture, among the famous sects, apart from Qingyang Temple, the only one was the Junshui Sword Sect.

The latter only accepts helpless orphans and does not accept people with family ties.

After Li Lang received the money, he naturally had to go to work.

Then he shouted: "Bring me a pen! I will write it all down with you!"

Paper, ink, pen and inkstone were immediately presented to him. Li Lang waved his pen and splashed ink like an iron painting with a silver hook. He wrote the words "ape climbing frame", "flying ring", "crystal universe stool", etc., and also annotated them below. doorway.

As a modern person who traveled through time and space, Li Lang's original calligraphy can only be considered 'recognizable'.

But now, his calligraphy skills seem to have been refined over time.

Being able to have such skill is not only due to his own hard work and talent, but also related to the unique space he came from.
