As soon as Zhou Zhong finished speaking, a chubby figure walked up to the stage, bowed to the surroundings with a smile on his face, and then said loudly: "Everyone is invited, the villain Xu Jing, I will talk to you today. A piece of "Journey to the West", but the villain's Journey to the West is different from the Journey to the West of all the previous storytellers, today I invite everyone to taste it!"

Seeing the people on stage, Zheng Jing, Li Zheng, and Zhang Kuang were taken aback for a moment. They never thought that the person on stage was Steward Xu.Zhou Zhong next to him was very calm, but it was the first time he knew that Steward Xu's real name was Xu Jing.

In addition, there are many people in Fengyou Tea House who know Steward Xu. After all, he used to be a frequent visitor here. Now these people are very surprised to see Steward Xu appearing on stage to tell a story.However, they soon realized that they started booing and cheering, especially the old tea friends who used to have a good relationship with Steward Xu, who shouted very vigorously.

Hearing the applause below and feeling the attention of everyone in the audience, not only was Steward Xu not the slightest bit nervous, but he was also very excited, and his whole body was a little smug. To describe it in the words of later generations, that is, Steward Xu is a show-loving Strong people enjoy the attention of others.

I saw Steward Xu walking to the desk on the stage while everyone was watching, and then picked up the wooden block on the table and slapped it hard, and the tea guests in the audience fell silent immediately.

Chaos is not divided into chaos, and no one sees it.

Since Pangu broke the Harmony, opened up a clear and turbid distinction.

Covering the group of students and admiring benevolence, inventing everything to be good.

If you want to know good luck, you must look at the biography of Shi E on Journey to the West.

Steward Xu finished reading the opening poem of Journey to the West, then looked around the audience, and then continued to speak: "It is said that Pangu created the sky, the three emperors ruled the world, and the five emperors established the ethics. The whole world is divided into four major continents, namely Dongsheng Shenzhou. , Xiniu Hezhou, Nandanbuzhou, and Beiju Luzhou, among which Dongshengshenzhou has a small country overseas..."

The content of Xu Steward’s storytelling is not exactly the same as Zhou Chong’s Journey to the West. Some more literary things are ignored, but many details are added. In the matter of learning art, at the beginning, in order to describe the extraordinaryness of Monkey King when he was born, Steward Xu added a lot of scene descriptions, and added a lot of details to the monkeys playing, and sometimes even learned the movements of a few monkeys.It's a pity that his body shape is really not very monkey-like, which often attracts laughter.

The opening of Journey to the West is very grand, that is, it points out the origin of Monkey King, and then attracts the appearance of Tianting, and finally tells the hardships of his going to sea to learn art from a teacher.The previous Journey to the West mainly revolved around Tang Sanzang, but Xu Guanjia started with Sun Wukong as the main character, especially this character who came from a mysterious background and learned all kinds of skills, which made the whole story very attractive from the very beginning. The audience waited until Steward Xu finished the first lecture, the whole teahouse was completely silent, and no one dared to interrupt Steward Xu.

"Okay!" Seeing that everyone around was in a daze, Zhou Zhong patted the table and shouted first.At this moment, the people around also came to their senses, the applause was unbroken, and some even stood up and shouted excitedly. Butler Xu's level of storytelling is still second. The key is that this story is so attractive, and they I can also hear that the Monkey King in the story should be the Monkey Walker in the old Journey to the West, but Monkey King's life experience is much more complicated and bizarre than that of the Monkey Walker, and it is also more attractive!

Seeing that the tea guests liked the story he told so much, Steward Xu was even more proud, and bowed to everyone in a fluttering manner.But before he could stand up, the tippers threw the raindrops of copper coins onto the stage, and at the same time, several acquaintances shouted: "Butler Xu, come on again, I haven't heard such a wonderful story for a long time!"

The shopkeeper and waiters in Fengyou Tea House also did not expect that Butler Xu, a half-hearted storyteller who came to the stage through the back door, would be so popular.Any industry is divided into grades, and the same is true for storytellers. For some of the more famous storytellers, teahouses and restaurants are vying to invite people to stay in the store as storytellers. Storyteller, after all, a good storyteller can bring a lot of traffic to a store.

The shopkeeper of Fengyou Tea House is surnamed Liu, the guy who was scared by Zhou Zhong and hid in the kitchen last time and dared not come out.Although the shopkeeper Liu lost in Zhou Zhong's hands, he was still a shrewd guy. Seeing that the guests welcomed Butler Xu so much, he immediately signaled to the guy next to him, so a clever guy immediately brought tea to Butler Xu, and then Help housekeeper Xu pick up the money on the table and put it away.

Originally Steward Xu wanted to step down after finishing the first speech, but the tea guests below insisted on pulling him away and insisting on telling him to speak again. Sheng Sheng promised that from then on, Butler Xu would no longer get a commission for storytelling in the teahouse.

When the Zhou Mansion was short of money, Steward Xu was very moved when he heard the assurance from shopkeeper Liu. In the end, he could only look at Zhou Zhong. Zhou Zhong thought about it, and finally nodded secretly to Steward Xu. .

With Zhou Zhong's approval, Steward Xu immediately announced that he agreed to everyone's request, and after he had a short rest, he added a paragraph, which made the guests in the teahouse applaud loudly, and then the three or five groups began to discuss what they heard just now while drinking tea and waiting. Journey to the West.

"Wen Da, who is Steward Xu?" Zheng Jing and the others had time to ask this question. They were also attracted by the opening story of Journey to the West just now.

"Hehe, it's really nothing, it's just that my younger brother has been bored and wrote a novel during this time. I wanted to sell it to a bookseller for some money to support the family, but I didn't expect..."

Zhou Zhong didn't hide anything from Zheng Jing and the others, he planned to publish a book but was not well-known, so he wanted to use storytelling to gain fame, and naturally booksellers would come to him.In addition, Zhou Zhong also took out the manuscripts of the first three chapters from his arms, and asked Zheng Jing and the others to taste them.

Zheng Jing and the others were already very interested in the new version of Journey to the West that Steward Xu told. Now that they heard that it was written by Zhou Zhong, they were all very surprised. However, when they saw the manuscript, they showed expressions of disbelief, because They never thought that Zhou Zhong could write such a wonderful story.

"Wen...Wen Da, this...was it really you who wrote this?" Zheng Jing is the oldest, but he is the most surprised. It is the first time that he has known each other for many years. , Even writing a book has such a talent.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Although this is only the beginning, it has already opened up a grand world. The monkey image of Monkey King is even more vivid on the paper. After watching a section, people can't help but want to watch the next section. It is unprecedented. What a wonderful book!" At this time Zhang Kuang also shook his head and said, but his eyes were still fixed on the manuscript, and the fan in his hand tapped his palm again and again, as if he was enjoying a beautiful piece of music.

Compared with the older Zheng Jing and Zhang Kuang, Li Zheng's reaction was more like a young man's. After watching the third episode, he blushed and suddenly slapped the table, shouting "Happy!" Startled the people around.

"Happy, so happy! Recruiting troops and buying horses made the whole world fall, and robbing the Dragon Palace to make a mess of the underworld broke through the heavens, and finally the heavens didn't dare to attack. This is the real man... oh~ oh~"

Hearing Li Zhengyue's words became more and more outrageous, Zhou Zhong almost said rebellious words in the end, so scared that he jumped up and covered Li Zheng's stinky mouth, so he didn't say any taboo words.Zheng Jing and Zhang Kuang were also taken aback, and gave Li Zheng a hard look.Only then did Li Zheng realize that he was not in a private room, but was surrounded by people. If someone with ulterior motives heard what he wanted to say just now, he would be in great trouble.

Thinking of this, Li Zheng also wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, smiled at Zhou Zhong and the other three, and then grabbed a few manuscripts and read them seriously, but his expression became more and more excited, and his face turned red , from time to time, he giggled "hehe", and the whole person was completely immersed in the grand world described in Journey to the West.

Although the first three chapters of Journey to the West are not many words, they spread out the whole world of Journey to the West, and also portray the vivid main character Monkey King, so it is very attractive.And while Zheng Jing and the others were concentrating on looking at the Journey to the West in their hands, Steward Xu also finished his break at this time, and began to speak on stage for the second session today. The result was the same as the first session. The people in the private room were all attracted, and stood on the corridor or stairs on the second floor and listened with gusto.

However, the popularity of Journey to the West far exceeded Zhou Zhong and Butler Xu's expectations. After the second lecture, the guests in the restaurant offered more rewards, and they all asked for another talk. Several old friends of Butler Xu He even ran up to the stage and pulled him, and refused to let him go unless he talked about the third game, and the people below also booed one after another.

Seeing this situation, shopkeeper Liu of Fengyou Tea House was also very embarrassed, mainly because he was afraid that he would exhaust Steward Xu's voice.After all, in the current situation, Steward Xu's name as a storyteller will definitely spread throughout Songjiang in the shortest possible time, and there will definitely be a large number of guests coming here tomorrow. If Steward Xu's voice is exhausted today, he will not be able to go on stage tomorrow , then tomorrow their teahouse will have to be demolished by the guests who rushed over.

Butler Xu also felt tired at this time, so he apologized to his friends and the people in the teahouse, saying that he couldn't talk anymore today, and if he wanted to listen again, tomorrow afternoon would be the old time, and tomorrow's story would be even more exciting!

After Steward Xu finished speaking, he quickly ran out of the teahouse under the cover of Shopkeeper Liu and his fellows. As for today's tip, he also cared about taking it, but now Fengyou Teahouse still relies on him to attract customers, so it will definitely not engulf him that little money.
