White Snake Demonstration Walk

Chapter 98 Thunder Tribulation
Qiao Chen'an spent the entire night in his practice. For practitioners, apart from sleeping, meditation may be the best way to rest.

Unknowingly, the sky has already brightened, people's voices outside the window are noisy, filled with a worldly atmosphere, and the whole city wakes up from its deep sleep again.

On the bed, Qiao Chenan was sitting cross-legged, with a calm expression on his face. Although he had put his hair up in a bun, his long black hair still fell down his shoulders like a waterfall. The momentum of the lying bamboo seems to be in harmony with the Tao.

But if you observe carefully, you will find that there is always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. He squeezes his hands and puts them on his knees, just like a Buddha smiling while holding flowers, which makes people feel calm.

He opened his eyes, although they were covered by the magic circle set up by Huangfu Xuan, but they could not completely cover up the wonder of the double pupils, the pupils were piercing, overflowing with strands of brilliance, as if two lightning flashed across in an instant, making people Heart palpitations.

Qiao Chen'an walked slowly to the window, looking at the blue-tiled houses in front of him, feeling the atmosphere of the world of mortals, a smile gradually appeared on his face, compared to sitting in an ancient cave in the deep mountains for many years and being an ascetic monk, he prefers life like this now.

Loud but real.

With a creak, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a small figure swayed into the room. His sleepy eyes suddenly lit up, and he shouted in surprise: "Brother Qiao!" But it was Huangfuxuan who came back.

These days when Qiao Chenan was not around, Huangfuxuan felt very happy at first, and finally no longer had to be taught by him, but after a few days, his mood became depressed, and he began to miss the life when Qiao Chenan was by his side. How lonely it feels to have no one by your side.

Apart from his elder sister Jiaona who has been by his side since childhood and took care of him in every possible way, Qiao Chen'an is the second person he really wants to rely on.

For several days in a row, he subconsciously came to this inn every morning to take a look to see if Qiao Chen'an had returned, but he did not expect to see him today!
Huangfuxuan trotted all the way, threw himself on Qiao Chenan, hugged his waist tightly with both hands, his little face was full of joy, he raised his head and smiled and said, "Brother Qiao, you are back!" The feeling of longing was beyond words.

A smile appeared on the corner of Qiao Chen'an's mouth, and he reached out to touch Huangfuxuan's hair, feeling a little strange feeling in his heart, but after not seeing him for a few days, he really missed this little guy, and said with a smile: "Hmm! I am back."

He took Huangfuxuan's little hand and came to the bedside, pinched his nose with a smile, and asked: "Did you listen to Mr. Wu these days when I was away? If I found out that you were naughty again, I would not forgive you lightly." you!"

Huangfuxuan pouted dissatisfiedly, grabbed the corner of his clothes with both hands, and said: "How can it be! I didn't make trouble this time."

Qiao Chen'an laughed when he heard the words, and seeing the little guy's complaining expression of "you blamed him wrong", a strange feeling of being a parent suddenly arose in his heart.

From a certain point of view, I took care of Huangfuxuan's daily life, even sent him to school, and asked Mr. Wu to teach him the principles of being a human being and studying, which is really something only parents would do.

He couldn't help but think of his sister Jiaona. Although he only met a few times, the words and deeds of that woman left a deep impression on him. She was elegant, indifferent, wise and dignified, completely different from all the women he had ever seen. A different feeling, like not belonging to this world.

I still remember the scene when the two met for the first time. Jiao Na held Huangfu Xuan's hand and stood quietly by the river, like a picture scroll.

It seems that I even gave her a lantern!It's just that she doesn't know where she is now, and why she entrusted her younger brother to take care of her.

Thinking about it, he was a little dazed, and suddenly felt that his sleeve was pulled a few times, and when he lowered his head, he found that Huangfuxuan was looking up at him, and said, "Brother Qiao, Mr. Qian said that when you come back, let me Take you to find him, it seems that there is something to discuss with you."

"Really?" Qiao Chenan said to himself, it seemed that Qian Duoduo had business matters to discuss with him.

……

In the west of Hangzhou City, there is a mansion covering an area of ​​several acres. The gates and walls are far more gorgeous than those around it. It seems to stand out from the crowd, with extraordinary momentum.

Two mighty stone lions stand guard on both sides of the vermilion gate, raising their eyes to look forward, majestic and majestic, showing the extraordinaryness of the owner of this house.

When Qiao Chenan came to the door, a door attendant came to ask him. When he gave his name, the waiter showed surprise on his face, and hurriedly let him into the house, obviously he had Qian Duoduo's prior notice.

As soon as you enter the courtyard, you can see rockery, flowing water, pavilions and buildings everywhere, and a large number of exotic flowers and plants are planted in the courtyard. At this time, all of them have sprouted new buds. At a glance, there is fresh green everywhere.There are many peaches and plums mixed in, and the pink petals are dotted in a piece of green, which will never make people feel that the color is monotonous and deserted, making people dizzying.

Not far away is a green lake, sparkling, reflecting the surrounding ancient pavilions, mountains and rocks, as if they are integrated, and there is no trace of artificial carving.

The waiter led him into the living room, served tea, lit sandalwood, the room was immediately filled with a strange fragrance, said "wait a while" and then retreated. When he left, he couldn't help but glanced over his shoulder curiously.

Qiao Chen sat quietly for a while, sipping tea, and seeing that there was no one in the room, he poured another cup of steaming tea and handed it to his shoulder.A little white fox about a foot long was quietly lying there, with a human look in its eyes, stretched its neck, put its mouth into the teacup, took two sips, and suddenly said, "Brother Qiao, what is this thing? It's too bad to drink!"

Qiao Chenan smiled slightly when he heard the words, and said: "You don't know the taste of tea." His eyes suddenly narrowed, and he said softly: "Someone is here!"

Turning around and looking outside the door, I saw Qian Duoduo running towards the house with an anxious expression on his face. He saw him from a distance, and before he entered the house, he shouted: "Brother Qiao, I am entangled in many things, but I never want to neglect you." Brother, I also hope that brother will forgive me!"

The waiters around have never seen their little master treat others so politely, what is the origin of this Qiao Chen'an?Subconsciously looking at the other person, he saw his own surprised face in the other person's eyes.

Although Qian Duoduo likes to make friends with talented people, if Qiao Chen'an is just an ordinary scholar, he is naturally not worthy of his treatment. But he is not only an actual partner in his perfume business, but also a student of Wang Lizhi, the dean of Chongwen Academy. If there is an accident, he will definitely step into an official career in the future, and with the support of his teacher, it will be no problem to make his way to the top.

And he is just a family of merchants. Although the Great Xia Dynasty did not suppress merchants, the status of merchants is much lower than that of scholars who are scholars. No matter from which aspect, Qiao Chen'an is worthy of his careful hospitality.

When Qian Duoduo rushed into the house, his forehead was slightly sweaty, Qiao Chenan got up and bowed, and said with a smile: "between you and me, why bother about these things, besides, I have just arrived not long ago, Brother Qian, please sit down!"

Qian Duoduo's chest rose and fell, he took a few deep breaths, and sat on the chair, only to find the white fox lying on Qiao Chen'an's shoulders, and then looked at his side, wondering, "Brother Qiao, why didn't Huangfuxuan come with you? "

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the white fox on Qiao Chen'an's shoulder seemed to have a somewhat laughing expression on his face. He shook his head, thinking to himself that he seemed to have worked too hard for the perfume business these days, and even had hallucinations.But Qiao Chenan said: "Ah Xuan was studying beside Mr. Wu, but he didn't follow."

Qian Duoduo nodded, and said seriously: "That's right, you can't delay studying!" If he knew that the white fox on Qiao Chenan's shoulder was changed by Huangfuxuan, he would be stunned.

Qiao Chen'an cut to the chase and said, "Brother Qian is looking for me for business matters?"

Qian Duoduo smiled and said: "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from my brother. Now I have found the most famous craftsman in the city to make the set of tools that you gave me, and hundreds of sets have been produced. Not only that, my men The workshop has already made the first batch of products, and the popularity is beyond imagination!"

After listening to his narration, Qiao Chenan realized that during the time he went to Jinhua, the workshop under the Qian family had already produced the first batch of perfume in the Great Xia Dynasty, and used the Qian family's channel in Hangzhou to infiltrate wealthy families. The home, the brothel and the painting boat, as expected by the two of them, these women really couldn't resist the charm of the perfume, and they were fascinated by each other, almost crazy, and some even offered thousands of taels just to buy this little one. A small bottle.

After all, which woman in this world doesn't want to be able to make herself more beautiful?

However, in a short period of time, perfume was only circulated in the hands of a small number of people, and it has not yet spread to the general public, which is why Qiao Chenan has not seen anyone selling perfume in the city.

As for the procurement of raw materials, the members of Huangfuxuan's Axe Gang helped a lot. Only then did Qiao Chen'an realize that the big flower pickers he saw in Longmen Mountain were all Huangfuxuan's subordinates.

Originally, a group of unscrupulous guys with swords, slashing, hacking, and doing illegal business actually started picking flowers. Qiao Chenan felt that the style of this painting was a bit fresh and refined...

As for how to operate and sell in the later stage, this is the Qian family's business, and it's not his turn to worry about it. Qiao Chen'an only plays the role of providing technology. To put it bluntly, it is a bit similar to the patent holder of later generations.

Qian Duoduo clapped his palms, and immediately a servant stepped into the hall, holding a square plate covered with a red cloth in both hands, Qian Duoduo personally took the square plate, brought it to Qiao Chen'an, uncovered the red cloth, Only to find that all of them were large bank notes, probably no less than a few thousand taels, and said: "These rights are treated as profits paid in advance, Brother Qiao, don't refuse."

Qiao Chen'an smiled slightly, and he was not impolite, put away all the bank notes on the plate, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Brother Qian." Thinking in his heart, Qian Duoduo knew that his family was not rich and didn't have much money on hand, so he borrowed it. The saying of paying in advance is a disguised form of helping oneself.But he never mentioned his financial difficulties, and his way of dealing with people and things was very old-fashioned.

Besides, if I don't accept the money, I'm afraid I will feel uneasy if I have a lot of money!
Sure enough, Qian Duoduo only showed a smile on his face when he saw him put away all the banknotes unceremoniously. The two sat opposite each other and talked about some business matters. Say goodbye and leave.

Walking on the streets of Hangzhou City, there are noisy cars and horses around, and the flow of people is like weaving, as if the tide is surging. The wine flags are flying on the street, and there are many shops.

Qiao Chenan strolled, and unknowingly came to the bank of the West Lake. It was April, and the West Lake had long since lost the silvery whiteness of winter. The close view of the distant mountains is like heaven and earth.

Qiao Chen An stood by the lake, with sparkling water under his feet, overgrown water and grass, a few carp chasing back and forth in the water, he gradually became a little lost in thought.

Looking back on everything that happened after I came to this world, when did I adapt to life here?I'm afraid even he himself doesn't know. Looking back, the forest of iron and steel seems to be gradually blurring in the long river of memory.

Pedestrians were hurrying around, and the wind was blowing the new shoots of the branches, but he had been standing by the lake without moving, in a deep daze, thinking about something.

It wasn't until Huangfuxuan's shout came to his ears that he suddenly realized it.

"Brother Qiao, why are you in a daze?" the white fox lay lazily on his shoulder and asked softly.

A smile appeared on the corner of Qiao Chen'an's mouth when he heard the words, he leaned over to pick up a stone under his feet, threw it hard into the center of the lake, looked into the distance, stroked the white fox Guanghua's fur, and said with a smile: "I'm thinking about life!"

There was a hint of doubt in the white fox's long and narrow eyes, apparently not understanding what he meant by thinking about life.

If you follow the direction of his line of sight and search all the way to the southwest, there are endless mountains, looking from a distance, winding and flying, like thousands of dragons dancing around beads, clouds and mist, misty smoke, only reaching the mountainside, Like the streamer around the waist of a fairy, it is majestic and magnificent.

And among these infinite mountains, there is a mountain range filled with aura, filled with mist, and shaped like a fairy lying on its side. It is the world-famous Qingcheng Mountain.

On the mountainside, clouds and mist shrouded like tulle, and a lake as crystal clear as amber glowed with colorful colors under the sunlight penetrating through the mist.

The calm water surface suddenly broke, and a slender white shadow quickly rushed into the air with countless water droplets, hovering over a stalactite pillar by the lake.

Thick black clouds suddenly appeared in the originally clear sky, the sky was dark and oppressive, falling down, thick electric lights flickered, and the air was filled with a depressing and dull atmosphere.

There was a series of loud rumbling sounds, and suddenly the sky thundered, and countless thick thunder broke through the barrier of the clouds and smashed towards the white shadow in the lake. The terrifying electric light erupted, as if it wanted to completely destroy it.

It was a huge thunder disaster.

But that white shadow turned up to the sky and spit out a milky white inner alchemy, which was also shrouded in mist, shone with endless brilliance, emitting a luster like pearls.

The thunderbolts falling in the midair seemed to be attracted, and they all intertwined and slashed towards the inner alchemy suspended in the midair. In an instant, thousands of rays of light burst out, surrounded by lightning, and thunder snakes danced wildly. They were all blocked by Naidan.

As if being provoked, the calamity cloud grew bigger and bigger, and half of the sky became dark, as if it had suddenly entered dusk, when a gust of wind blew up between the sky and the earth, the fog was completely blown away, leaving only sparkling The surface of the water reflects the terrifying thunderclouds in the sky.

There was another series of loud noises, the sky seemed to be cracking, and thousands of purple thunders rushed out of the dark clouds, rushing towards the white shadow who had crossed the catastrophe!
