Comprehensive martial arts: Qixia town storytellers, the beginning of the tie to Qiao Feng

"Wait a minute."

creak.

Not long after, the door of the inn was opened from the inside.

A fat, bearded man stood at the door, looking up and down at Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan.

Looking at the costumes on them that were somewhat different from those of the Great Qin Empire, he asked, "You two guests, are you here to stay?"

Lu Yan nodded and said, "Please prepare a room for us, thank you."

The big man stepped aside and said, "Please come in."

Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan walked into the inn. At this time, there were no lights in the inn, so it looked very dark.

The big man walked in front, led Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan into the upper room, and said, "You two have a good rest."

Lu Yan glanced at the big man, then handed out an ingot of gold.

Seeing that Lu Yan made such a generous move, the big man was a little surprised and said, "Are you staying here for a long time?"

Lu Yan nodded with a smile, and said, "I will ask the manager to take care of you in the future."

Jin Jin, the big man's subordinate, smiled honestly, touched his head and said, "Haha, it's easy to say, my surname is Ding, and you can call me Shopkeeper Ding or Fatty Ding."

Lu Yan responded: "I'm going to Lu Yan, this is Xie Zhuoyan, a bitch."

Pao Ding said with a simple smile, "Hello, hello, then I won't bother you."

After saying that, Pao Ding walked downstairs.

When he came to a place where no one was around, Pao Ding looked back at the upper room where Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan lived.

At this time, the door of the room has been closed and the lights have been turned off, so it must be rest.

"Lu Yan, Xie Zhuoyan? It doesn't look like Qin."

"I have to find a way to talk to them tomorrow."

……

Early the next morning.

Lu Yan got up early and wanted to go out to see the situation.

As for Xie Zhuoyan, at this time he was practicing cross-legged exercises and doing daily morning exercises.

When Lu Yan came to the inn lobby, there were no guests in the inn yet.

Only a tall, thin young man was cleaning the table.

Lu Yan walked over, looking at a handsome guy with half of his face covered by bangs, and said, "Dude, have a bowl of porridge."

The man glanced at Lu Yan and said, "Okay, please wait a moment, sir."

Lu Yan looked at the figure of the man leaving, and smiled without saying a word.

Not long after, the waiter came back with a bowl of hot white rice porridge, and put the porridge in front of Lu Yan.

The buddy was about to get busy with other things, when Lu Yan suddenly said, "Dude, sit down, I'll ask you something."

The clerk didn't sit down, but stood aside and said, "What does the guest officer want to ask?"

Lu Yan pointed to the outside and asked, "Do you have a storyteller here?"

Storyteller?

The guy froze for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know what a storyteller is."

Lu Yan thought for a while, probably during the Qin Dynasty, storytelling hadn't become popular yet, so there was no business as a storyteller.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Shi Lan."

Lu Yan nodded slightly, and said, "Please go and invite your shopkeeper."

Soon, this guy named Shi Lan went to invite Pao Ding.

Seeing Pao Ding, Lu Yan said with a smile, "Master Ding, I want to discuss something with you."

Pao Ding laughed and said: "Guest officer, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Lu Yan said, "I want to tell a book in your inn."

Pao Ding was stunned for a moment, and asked with some doubts: "Storytelling?"

Lu Yan nodded and said, "When the guests are eating, I will tell the stories to the guests and make them have some fun."

After hearing Lu Yan's explanation, Pao Ding said with a smile, "It sounds interesting."

"If Mr. Lu wants to tell a story, it's not impossible, but what do you need me to do with you?"

Lu Yan smiled slightly and replied, "Just give me a slightly higher table, and I will prepare the rest myself."

Pao Ding said: "It's easy to talk, I'll make arrangements for you."

Pao Ding's work efficiency was very fast, and it didn't take long before he moved a high platform into the lobby and placed it in an open space.

Lu Yan personally built a table and a chair.

When Pao Ding saw the novel table and chair brought by Lu Yan, he couldn't help showing surprise on his face.

Lu Yan looked at the surprised expression on Pao Ding's face, and said with a smile: "Although it is said to do as the Romans do, I am not used to kneeling."

When Pao Ding heard Lu Yan's words, he asked curiously, "Master Lu is not from Qin?"

Lu Yan nodded, and replied frankly, "I came from the sea."

When Pao Ding heard this, he gave Lu Yan a subtle look.

Although his martial arts are not very powerful, his eyesight is extremely powerful.

Usually, you can tell the details of a person's martial arts just by looking at it.

But when he looked at Lu Yan at this time, he felt that Lu Yan was a pure ordinary person.

"Am I thinking too much?"

Pao Ding was a little puzzled.

After everything was ready, Lu Yan began to patiently wait for the guests to come.

Because of Pao Ding's excellent culinary skills, there are not a few guests who usually come to the inn to eat.

After the guests arrived, they were all very curious about Lu Yan who suddenly appeared in the lobby.

And this curiosity was mainly because of the high platform under Lu Yan and the strangely shaped tables and chairs.

Lu Yan waited patiently. Seeing that there were more and more guests in the lobby, he picked up the gavel and gave it a slap!

Snapped!

The loud sound of the gavel hitting the table immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Lu Yan, with doubts on their faces.

What is this scholar doing?

Facing everyone's suspicious eyes, Lu Yan smiled slightly, and said loudly: "Guest officers, I'm going to Lu Yan, a storyteller who came from the east."

"I'm here today to bring you a story. If you think it's interesting, those who have money will give it a go, and those who don't have money will give it a go."

"I would like to thank you all in advance."

When everyone heard Lu Yan's words, their faces showed curiosity.

Even Pao Ding came out from the back kitchen, wanting to see what Lu Yan was planning to tell the story.

Xie Zhuoyan had also finished her morning exercise at this time, and was leaning on the fence on the second floor, looking at Lu Yan with a smile.

She was also very curious about what story Lu Yan would tell this time.

Lu Yan cleared his throat, and said in a loud voice: "Pangu was first divided into chaos, Tai Chi, two rituals and four images were suspended, Zitian Chou, and people came out, avoiding beasts and Chaoxian..."

Lu Yan was not in a hurry, and his tone of voice was cadenced.

Everyone listened and found that what Lu Yan said seemed to happen a long time ago.

It sounds like the Shang and Zhou dynasties?

"Chengtang is the descendant of the Yellow Emperor, and his surname is Zishi."

"Jiandi, the second concubine of the first emperor Ku, prayed to Gao, and had the auspiciousness of a black horse, so she gave birth to a deed..."

When everyone heard this, some knowledgeable people had basically concluded that what Lu Yan was going to talk about happened in the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

There are some records about this period of history, but there are really not many people who have read these records and understood this period of history.

So when they heard that Lu Yan was going to tell the story of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, everyone immediately became interested.

Even Pao Ding couldn't care less about cooking, so he leaned on the door frame and listened seriously.

"Everyone, the story we are going to tell today begins with King Zhou of Shang."

"It is said that one day, King Zhou went to the palace in the early morning, and hundreds of civil and military officials gathered together."

"King Zhou sat high in the Golden Luan Hall and said: If there is a memorial, there will be a class, and if there is nothing to do, it will be dismissed."

"As King Zhou's voice fell, I saw a person from the right class appearing. It was Shang Rong, the virtuous minister in charge of ritual and music."

"Shang Rong spoke to King Zhou, asking King Zhou to come to Nuwa Palace to offer incense on March [-]th, the birthday of Empress Nuwa."

"King Zhou thinks that Nuwa has no merits and virtues. He is the Emperor of Man, the Lord of Ten Thousand Vehicles, so there is no need to go to Nuwa's Palace to offer incense."

"Fortunately, although Shang Rong is old, he is eloquent. He immediately persuaded King Zhou with Nuwa's achievements in mending the sky, and King Zhou agreed to go to offer incense."

"As for King Zhou, it's fine if he doesn't go to Nuwa Palace to offer incense, but this offering caused chaos!"

Having said that, Lu Yan paused for a while, picked up the wine glass in front of him and sang softly.

This made the guests sitting below anxious.

They were still waiting to hear why King Zhou caused such chaos, why did he stop?

Lu Yan smiled slightly, and continued, "The next day, King Zhou left the palace and was escorted by King Wucheng Huang Feihu all the way to Nuwa Palace."

"King Zhou entered Nuwa's palace and saw the gorgeousness of Nuwa's palace. He was admiring the scenery when suddenly a gust of wind blew up and rolled up the curtains, revealing the statue of Nuwa."

"I saw that the statue of Nuwa has a beautiful appearance, and the auspicious colors are beautiful and beautiful, just like a fairy in the core palace."

"There is an old saying: when a country is about to prosper, there must be auspiciousness; when a country is about to perish, there must be monsters."

"King Zhou saw Nuwa's stunning beauty, and he was so fascinated that he became obsessive!"

"He thought to himself: I am the emperor, rich in the world, but there is no one in the three palaces and six courtyards that is more beautiful than Nuwa!"

"Soon he ordered people to take the Four Treasures of the Study and write a poem on the wall of Nuwa Palace."

"The scenery of the Fengluan treasure tent is very special, full of lacquered gold and delicate makeup, the songs and songs of the distant mountains are flying emerald, and the dancing sleeves reflect the clouds."

"Pear blossoms bring rain to compete for beauty, and peony cages smoke and make up charmingly, but they are enchanting and able to move, and take back Changle to serve the king."

"Shang Rong, who was standing by the side, quickly dissuaded: Nuwa is the righteous god of the ancient times, the blessing of Chaoge, how can he use obscene poems to blaspheme, this is to offend Nuwa!"

"Shang Rong wanted to wash off the ink stains on the wall with water, but King Zhou refused."

"In his opinion, he just wanted our Nuwa's peerless beauty when he wrote a poem, and he has no other intentions."

"Leave his calligraphy here so that the common people will know how he, the emperor, praises Empress Nuwa."

"King Zhou is determined to go his own way, and business tolerance is hard to persuade, so he can only remain silent."

"Let's say that on March [-]th, Empress Nuwa's Christmas, Empress went to Huoyun Palace to pay homage to Fuxi Yan Emperor Xuanyuan Sanyuan and came back, so she went to this Nuwa Palace."

"The empress is sitting in the treasure hall, and when she looked up, she saw the poem written on the wall, and she was furious immediately."

"The empress scolded: Yin Shou has no way to fool the emperor, he doesn't want to cultivate his morals to protect the world, but now he is not afraid of heaven, and sings poems to insult me, it is very abominable!"

"I want to become Tang Fajie and rule the world. I have lived in the country for more than [-] years, and I am exhausted. If I don't repay him, I won't see my inspiration."

Lu Yan said this with a ventriloquist imitating the tone of Empress Nuwa.

And silently released a little breath in the posture of a real fairy.

The guests who were listening to the book in the lobby immediately had the feeling of facing the true God, and they were all shocked!

"Empress Nuwa went straight to Chaoge to teach King Zhou a lesson."
