Everyone looked at each other, full of doubts.

A man closest to Lan Daocheng asked: "Patriarch Lan is unhappy, what's the matter?"

This man wore a gold crown on his head, copper wristbands on his hands, and a gold suit with a chest of hundreds of butterflies and flowers embroidered in the middle of the clothes, with phoenix eyes and red lips, he was full of extravagance.

"If Uncle Lan is in trouble, my nephew will definitely help." A slightly immature boy in white beside him raised his glass and said cheerfully.

Xie Qi approached Zhuang Yin, and introduced him warmly: "The one in gold is Taoling suzerain, Xue Gui, very powerful. The one in white is Yan Chengqing, the youngest son of the Qilian Yan family." Zhuang Yin nodded in understanding.

Landocheng hesitated for a while before saying: "Everyone, to be honest, I have a collection in my house that was stolen two months ago. I sent people to search for it several times but failed, but I don't know if I can find it."

Everyone was astonished. The treasures of the Lan family are conservatively estimated to have tens of thousands of treasures. Although they are all priceless treasures, to be the head of the Lan family, what rare treasures have never been owned before, and things that can make him so sad must be special existences that he likes very much. up.

Then another thin middle-aged man with two mustaches on his mouth asked: "What kind of treasure is it? Patriarch Lan might as well tell me, maybe Wan can help."

Xie Qi whispered in Zhuang Yin's ear: "Wan Qifeng, with mediocre cultivation, but very charismatic, should not be underestimated."

Landocheng raised his head and took a sip of his wine, exhaling, "A painting, a box."

Wan Qifeng asked: "Who made this painting? What is it painted? What are its characteristics? What does the box look like?"

Landaocheng replied: "There is nothing painted, but a blank scroll. There is nothing valuable in the box, only the jewelry of the deceased wife."

Everyone can't understand it.Yan Chengqing couldn't hold back his gulp of wine, "Uncle Lan, are you kidding me? A painting without a painting, what kind of rare treasure is it?"

Lan Yin, who was sitting next to him, let out a chuckle, "Brother Yan, please calm down."

Yan Chengqing's eyes widened, and he said narcissistically, "Sister Lan, what are you laughing at? You seem to be laughing every time you see me. Could it be that you like me? But it's normal. See people love flowers and see flowers bloom."

Lan Yin didn't bother to pay attention to him, and said again and again: "Yes, yes, yes."

Yan Chengqing said happily: "But I haven't seen her for a year, and my sister has become more and more beautiful. She is even more beautiful than the legendary Shui Yingliu."

Lan Yin felt both angry and funny, because he dared to compare herself with Shui Yingliu in the land of fireworks, but she heard that Shui Yingliu was as beautiful as a fairy, so she also found it funny, "Say it as if you have seen her before." of."

Wan Qifeng asked: "Could it be that the mystery lies in the scroll?"

Landocheng waved his hand and said, "Actually, this painting came from the Lu family."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked again, the Lu family's painting!

Everyone in the Lu family is good at painting, and they are very rich. It is often difficult to find a painting, but the Lu family often paints for some famous Taoist temples.It is rumored that the Lu family has a family rule of three not to paint: vulgar people are not allowed to paint, people with low morals are not allowed to paint, and people who get rich overnight are not allowed to paint.

In fact, the Lan family was considered a wealthy family at the beginning. Although after a hundred years of accumulation and washing, the cultural background and family traditions are good now, which is different from the past, but a hundred years ago, the Lan family was absolutely not qualified to go to the Lu family to seek paintings. Presumably this painting has no paintings The paintings are also obtained through various means.

It is also said that Lu Tanwei, the patriarch of the Lu family, didn't like to stay at home, and often went out to collect folk songs. Sometimes he would show up among the people to draw pictures for the poor, and sometimes he would show up in the deserted temples in the mountains to draw pictures for the dilapidated mountain temples. , unpredictable, erratic.

However, the Lu family suddenly disappeared 100 years ago, and thousands of members of the family disappeared overnight.

So the folk rumors are even more absurd.Some people say that the whole family of the Lu family has attained Taoism and ascended to heaven; some people say that the whole family of the Lu family moved away to live and practice in a more distant and mysterious place, such as Peach Blossom Spring; Contradictions, so they disbanded, maybe there is a Lu family by your side.

In short, there are different opinions and different opinions, and the rumors are always confusing.

Even Zhuang Yin couldn't help putting down his wine glass this time, and turned slightly to look at Lan Daocheng thoughtfully.Suddenly, he felt a very sharp gaze, looked up, and found Xue Gui who was sitting diagonally opposite was looking at him.

Xue Gui met his eyes, nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "The Taoist priest looks very similar to an old friend of mine."
