Poor monks do not break the precepts

Mr. Gong originally planned to boast a few more words, but seeing Xu Sheng was so dissatisfied, he didn't say any more, and swallowed all the words embarrassingly, feeling sorry from the bottom of his heart.Mr. Gong thought for a while, and cautiously said: "Xuanji Pavilion has recently uncovered a lot of incense thieves' deeds. Although they are the answers of the landlord's disguise for many years, it's just that they can find out such a secret matter, and their strength should not be underestimated. "

Xu Sheng lowered his eyes and suddenly heard the Xuanji Pavilion, his black eyes suddenly opened slightly, "Let them check it out, and I will save a lot of trouble by taking the identity of the woman who steals incense."

Mr. Gong thought for a while, although he didn't believe that Xuanji Pavilion was really capable of finding Xu Sheng, he finally mentioned, "Huaiming Mo is more difficult to deal with than Concubine Ji, and the landlord must be careful, there is another difficult person beside him." Xinli, this man is smart and cunning, and he knows people very accurately. He discovered many of the spies I arranged to enter the Xuanji Pavilion in the past two years."

"The scholar next to Huai Mingmo?" Chen Xiang wiped the clear dagger with a cloth, and suddenly remembered the scholar he fought with that day, and became curious.

Chen Xiang has a cold temper, except for Xu Sheng, he rarely cares about other things, when she suddenly mentioned others, not to mention Mr. Gong's surprise, even Xu Sheng couldn't help but tilt his head and look at Chen Xiang, "Do you know him?"

"Hidden world villa diplomacy has passed."

Xu Sheng raised his brows slightly, and asked: "How does it compare to you? That day we met outside the Hermitage Villa, but ended up arriving half an hour late on the other side. Is it because of him?"

Chen Xiang nodded and said nothing, then heard Xu Sheng ask: "How is this hard work?"

"I had a slight advantage in that battle, but this guy's skills are not bad. If you fight seriously, it should be difficult to distinguish the strong and weak within 150 moves. After 150 moves, it's hard to say who will win." Chen Xiang's expression was as cold as ice, making people have to believe.

Mr. Gong didn't pay much attention to Xin Li before, but now he feels the need to investigate him carefully.Xu Sheng was not surprised at all, and said with a light smile: "He should have this ability, otherwise Huai Mingmo would not reuse him. Although Huai Mingmo is the owner of the Xuanji Pavilion, most of the time he will be handed over to Xinli to fight. Reason, the small matters in the pavilion are almost handled by Xin Li, and the Xuanji Pavilion is a place full of talents, if a frail scholar comes forward on behalf of the pavilion master, how can he convince the public." Xu Sheng rinsed his mouth with the tea mixed with peppermint oil brought by Guo Linnan, Thinking of the treacherous situation in the previous court, there is no way to be careless, "Mr. Gong, let your people pay close attention to the previous court, pay close attention to every detail, and don't let go of any small things."

"I know, landlord, please rest assured."

Xu Sheng nodded and stood up, since he was full, he planned to find a place to drink a cup of tea, Chen Xiang knew Xu Sheng's habits, got up early and waited beside him.Mr. Gong is the most mysterious in the Wuzhi Building, so it is not very convenient to show up with Xu Sheng. He sent Xu Sheng to the intersection of Wuyifang Street, turned around and disappeared into the endless darkness of the room.

After a few steps out of Wuyifang, Xu Sheng and Chen Xiang entered Fenglefang which is not far away. There is only a street separating them, but the two workshops are very different. The Goulan courtyard and the small hall are full of noisy people and horses.Fenglefang is different from Changmingfang. Changmingfang mostly receives high-ranking officials or literati, while Fenglefang mostly receives people from martial arts and merchants looking for fun. Occasionally, people from the upper class come to find people from the Hongguan. Have fun all night, after all, the women and young ladies in the small courtyard have more tricks.

Yishuiju and Yipinju are opposite each other, and they sell the best tea and wine in Qingzhou Prefecture. There are many guests who come to taste tea and drink every day, even the nobles and scholars of the upper class will come here with respect.It was already late at this time, and the lights in Yishuiju were still bright, and there were many people at the tea table in the center.

"Guest officer, please." Just as Xu Sheng entered the door, the waiter came to greet him and lead the way.

The waiter in the shop was very clever, seeing that the monk was bringing the girl, so the two of them wanted to take the girl to the corner, and when they reached the stairs, they saw the shopkeeper coming down, and said respectfully: "Master Xusheng, the boss invites you to have a little gathering with Ya Ge. .”

The shopkeeper sent Xiao Er away with winks, and personally took Xu Sheng upstairs, and sent him to Sanqing Pavilion.I saw an old man in the Accord tasting tea alone, dressed luxuriously but without the slightest smell of copper, he looked more like a refined master.

Xu Sheng sat cross-legged across from the owner of Yishuiju with a slight smile, and after the shopkeeper closed the door and left, Fang smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Yishuiju's business is still so good when the storyteller is not here."

"If the business is cold, how can we afford the landlord's extravagance."

"Mr. Bianji's words are wrong. Could it be that you have the ability to make money every day, and how dare I be extravagant."

Mr. Bianji snorted softly, thinking of the Fuguang brocade night clothes that Xu Sheng had burned away, he felt more and more distressed, and rolled his eyes repeatedly, "Don't put gold on my old face."

Xu Sheng couldn't help laughing out loud, he seemed in a good mood, teasingly said: "The poor monk is telling the truth, there is no exaggeration and nonsense, there is no one in Wuzhi upstairs who doesn't know Mr. Bianji's business skills."

"In terms of the ability to make money from business, Hehuanzhai is not bad, and Xuanji Pavilion has its own way. I have never seen their owners or pavilion owners waste money like the landlord." It's heartbroken, wishing I could squeeze out two tears so that my homeowner can be enlightened,

Xu Sheng took the sky celadon cup from Chen Xiang's hand, picked up the Xi Shi pot on the low table, poured out a cup of hot tea, took a sip, turned around and poured it into the cup washing bowl, washed the Xi Shi pot and re-brewed the tea, watching the teapot next to him Mr. Bian Ji repeatedly lamented the waste.Xu Sheng blew on the clear tea noodles, took a few sips of the freshly brewed tea leisurely, and said with a light smile: "The owner of Hehuanzhai is not a frugal person, but it's just because of his status. Besides, Hehuanzhai is a purely flesh-and-blood business If you are too extravagant and wasteful, you will be punished by God. As for Xuanji Pavilion, you get the imperial food, and the hidden world villa now has a delicate position in Emperor Meng's heart. If Huai Mingmo dares to be extravagant and extravagant, he is asking for trouble. I am different, money always comes—— It's fair and square."

When Mr. Bian Ji heard the four words after Xu Sheng's pause, he was almost speechless for a while, but Chen Xiang floated in a faint sentence: "But shouldn't the monk be empty of all four things?" After swallowing the tea, Xu Sheng was even more stunned for a while.

"Keep in the heart of the Buddha, Amitabha." Xu Sheng put one hand on his chest and leaned forward slightly, then straightened up, his expression was completely different, "How long will Shen Mengjun live in Wuxue Academy?"

"It seems that she will stay for a few days. When she leaves, I will send someone to notify the landlord."

It doesn't matter if the fake sword manual is really stolen, but Xu Sheng is really curious about Shen Mengjun's identity, so he thought about recruiting Chen Xiang who was behind him, and ordered in a low voice: "Go to the Valley of Medicine Kings in person immediately, watch day and night, and be sure to catch that spy on those who follow me every day.”

"Yes." Chen Xiang only moved his heels, then stopped hesitating and said: "The subordinate is leaving, what should the owner's guard do?"

Mr. Bianji waved away people with a smile on his face, and said firmly: "Qingzhou Mansion is the territory of Wuzhilou. Whoever dares to assassinate the landlord secretly will have a net waiting for him. Besides, the landlord has recovered [-]% of his body, even if the heads of the four major sects Or if Mr. Ji comes in person, it may not be possible to get a bargain. The old man is also very curious, who can block the tenth level of the magic power of the hundred-year-old body."

"There are green hills outside the mountains, and buildings outside the buildings. The rivers and lakes have always been places where crouching tigers hide dragons." Xu Sheng spoke humbly, and his charm was even more modest. The hot tea was bubbling on his face, making people unable to see through his blurred expression. And under those bottomless black eyes, there was a hint of arrogance and evil.

Mr. Bian Ji has a pair of very sharp eyes on his wrinkled face, and his rough old hand with a little callus is holding a teacup. His eyes wandered among the crowd downstairs, "There are rumors in the rivers and lakes, the landlord is not going to calm down."

Xu Sheng fixed his eyes on Jia Banxian who was limping up to the second floor, and said slowly: "Of course we have to put aside the relationship between the Fragrance Pirates and this matter, but the so-called treasure map is easy to use."

Mr. Bian Ji's eyes moved slightly, how could he fail to figure out the meaning of the false life, "There are always lively things in the martial arts world, the landlord is not planning to add more flames, right?"

"Since it's in full swing, how can I cool it down? I just added some firewood and charcoal." There was a disgusting smile on the corner of Xu Sheng's mouth, and there was a hint of expectation in his tone, "Since there is a stage for performing big plays Come on for me, how can anyone sing a one-man show. Sheng, Dan, Jing, Mo, and Chou, the famous actors who should be assembled can't be left alone, and they can't disappoint the spectators waiting below."

Mr. Bian Ji thought about it for a while, thinking that it would not be good to fabricate it out of thin air, so he smiled and said, "Anyway, Xiao Quhua is too busy to panic. I will ask him to draw a few maps when I get back tonight, so as to ensure that the fake ones can be confused with the real ones. Jianghu people are the most idle people. I’ve heard that the four major factions are the most hospitable, so I’m sure they will treat you very well.”

Xu Sheng smiled and nodded, his eyes were full of childlike innocence, as if he saw a childish favorite toy candy figure, "Shaolin remember to put it later, I want to see this hilarious appearance for myself."

"As long as the landlord doesn't break the precepts, it's fine. It's very difficult to reveal the truth. I can't help the old guys."

Xu Shengyuan was itchy, and when Mr. Bian Ji said it, it was as if a basin of ice water had been poured on his head, and he suddenly lost his enthusiasm. Hanging down the tassel, Sisha heard the sound of the shopkeeper coming, "Shopkeeper, go ask the guests of Taorang Pavilion if you have time to have a cup of tea with me."

The shopkeeper received the order and left in a hurry. It took about a stick of incense to go back and forth. He didn't dare to rush in. He knocked on the wooden door and whispered: "Mr. Jia has invited Master Xu Sheng." Xu Sheng passed by, but seeing Xu Sheng wave his hand, he wisely did not follow behind.

The gate of Taorang Pavilion has already been opened and is waiting for the distinguished guests to visit, but the people in Taorang Pavilion have nothing to entertain them, only Diesixi candied fruit and peach shortbread, and there is no heat from the spout of the purple clay pot, obviously Jia Banxian did not make tea.

Seeing Xu Sheng's figure, Jia Banxian smiled and pushed the purple sand pot forward, and said modestly, "I won't fight with an ax in front of Monk Xu Sheng, it's too embarrassing." He saw the green tea that Xu Sheng took out from the secret bag, and the tea leaves were all over his body There are pekoe all over the place, thin, straight, round and smooth. He casually said, "The tip of Taimu Mountain? It seems to be new tea."

Xu Sheng knew that Jia Banxian was an antique tea merchant, so it was not surprising to know this tea, he said slowly: "That's right, I went to Taimu Mountain a few days ago, this tea was given by Taoist Shiku."

Jia Banxian didn't seem to care, took the purple sand tea cup and drank most of it, and praised: "The wonderful monk's craftsmanship really lives up to its reputation."

"Mr. Wantong has won the award, but the poor monk is just doing what he wants. Please don't make fun of me, Mr. Wantong."

When Jia Banxian heard Xu Sheng call himself that, he knew that the other party must ask about something, so he said straight to the point: "There are very few people in the Jianghu who know the true face of Wanshitong. Monk Xusheng is very capable. If you have something to ask, I will definitely tell you everything." Jianghu rules One question is ten taels, and the price for secret questions can be as high as ten thousand gold. Jia Banxian saw that Xu Shengyouyouran didn't intend to ask, so he pursed his lips and smiled: "Tonight, no matter how many questions you ask, I won't take any money."
