Skilled in managing a house

Entering the mountain gate, you can see all the pavilions and pavilions. The bell tower, drum tower, cloisters and palaces are really magnificent.

The old white-robed Taoist led Zhang Yu for a long time to Zhongjin's courtyard, and then entered the side hall.

In the side hall, there is a portrait of an old Taoist enshrined. It does not appear to be Sanqing. Zhang Yu did not recognize which Taoist branch he belonged to. Of course, even if Zhang Yu was curious, he couldn't ask.

Not many people entered the side hall. There were only five old Taoists in white robes from the Shushan sect, and a group of six from Zhang Yu's side. After two minutes, the guests and the host were seated. A young Taoist priest came to deliver tea. After the tea was placed, they left.

Afterwards, they exchanged pleasantries and introduced each other.

The leader of this old Taoist, named Ding Xiuyi, does not have a Taoist name. He is the guest hall elder of Qixia Peak of Shushan Sect. The other four veterans are all Ding Xiuyi's junior disciples.

Yao Sanchun, Kong Yi and others also reported their trade names. Their names were all fake, and the veterans had naturally never heard of them. Even so, it is inevitable to say some polite words such as long-term admiration.

After saying some useless words, Ding Xiuyi finally got to the point and said, "Mr. Chai, we just said outside the mountain gate that our Shushan sect cannot act rashly based on Mr. Chai's words alone. In this case, everyone in the world will Even the various sects will not be convinced."

"Of course..." Zhang Yu said, took out the Seven-Star Sword from his arms, circled it between the five fingers of his right hand, and then said: "There are no other special skills among the masters, only the carving skill. Xiang. Otherwise, the Taoist priest might as well just pick up a piece of jade or something like that, and I'll carve it on the spot... In this way, it's clear at a glance whether it's true or false..."

"In that case... I'll trouble you, Mr. Chai..." Ding Xiuyi turned to look at the white-robed old man who was following him, and said, "Junior Brother Li, please go to the warehouse..."

"Yes, senior brother." The white-robed old man next to Ding Xiuyi agreed, stood up, and walked out of the side hall.

After a while, the old man came back. In Lao Dao's hand, he held a piece of jade as big as a fist.

He entered the side hall, walked directly to Ding Xiuyi, and said, "Senior brother, do you think this is okay?"

Ding Xiuyi nodded and said, "Okay. Give it to Mr. Chai."

The old Taoist immediately agreed, turned around, walked to Zhang Yu, and said politely: "Mr. Chai, please take a look."

Zhang Yu took the jade and with just one glance, he was sure that it was a piece of high-quality glass jade. Such jade is basically second only to emerald.

"Good stuff." Zhang Yu praised.

"Mr. Chai has really good eyesight, please." After the old man finished speaking, he returned to his seat and sat down.

Zhang Yu held the glass jade in his hand and focused his attention on it. After a moment, the jade in his hand took on the shape of a gourd. Zhang Yu followed suit, and the seven-star sword spread across the jadeite, and pieces of jadeite were cut off by the blade.

Kong Yi is sitting next to Zhang Yu. Kong Yi knows Zhang Yu's details better than anyone else.

Previously, Kong Yi knew that Zhang Yu was some kind of third-grade layman Zheng Yiyuan, and this must be a fake. Later, it was said that Zhang Yu was a disciple of the master carver Liu Gongyan and the younger brother of the master Lei Ge. Kong Yi believed that this was Zhang Yu's nonsense again.

When the old Taoist asked to test Zhang Yu's carving skills first, Kong Yi was really worried for Zhang Yu. She secretly said in her heart that Zhang Yu's cultivation was not weak, but could he do such a thing?

Seeing Zhang Yu really carving at this moment made Kong Yi confused. Kong Yi never dreamed that Zhang Yu would still have these two moments.

In less than half an hour, she saw that Zhang Yu had outlined the jadeite in his hand into the shape of a gourd. Glass jade is originally crystal clear, but after processing, it becomes even more beautiful.

Zhang Yu didn't do anything superfluous. After finishing the processing, he stopped. He stood up, walked towards Ding Xiuyi who was sitting opposite, smiled and said, "Taoist Master, please take a look."

Ding Xiuyi took the jade gourd, looked at it for a few times, and then said: "Mr. Chai is indeed Master Liu's disciple. He is very powerful... I think this skill is no less than the master Lei Ge..."

"Thank you, Taoist Master, for the compliment." Zhang Yu nodded and said.

Then, retreat to your position.

Ding Xiuyi played with the jade gourd for a while and said: "Our Shushan sect will definitely help with Mr. Chai's matter. Please rest assured, Mr. Chai. However, this matter cannot be completed overnight, and I have to make it clear." Master, please take a long-term approach. Mr. Chai might as well stay in Shushan for the next few days. I wonder what Mr. Chai thinks?"

The purpose of Zhang Yu and the others' coming here was to live in Shushan, and they had no other plans.

Now what Ding Xiuyi said was exactly what he wanted. Zhang Yu immediately clasped his fists and said, "I'm sorry for bothering you."

"Mr. Chai is too polite. I will arrange someone here to ask Mr. Chai and his party to rest at the guest house first. We will discuss it later," Ding Xiuyi said.

This confirmed Zhang Yu's identity, so he arranged his accommodation first. Ding Xiuyi did not lead Zhang Yu and others to the guest house in person this time. He said that he wanted to see the leader to report. The person who sent Zhang Yu and others there was an old man named Li next to Ding Xiuyi.

Zhang Yu and others followed Li Laodao and four young Taoist priests to the Guest House. The guest house of the Shushan Sect is not very big. After entering, there are four courtyards in total. It seems that there are not many people who usually visit the Shushan Sect.

Li Laodao arranged Zhang Yu and the others in the cross-yard of the west wing. In this yard, there is a two-story building and a wing. This is also because Zhang Yu and his group are a bit crowded.

On the second floor, there is a flower hall on the first floor and three rooms upstairs. The stairs are external. In the wing room, there is a main room and two bedrooms, a total of five rooms.

Although there were six people in Zhang Yu's party, Zhang Yu also said that Kong Yi was his wife, so it was normal for two people to sleep in the same room.

Li Laodao specifically warned that while the four little Taoist priests were waiting in shifts outside the courtyard, if Zhang Yu and the others had any requests, they could give them instructions at any time.

In this way, Zhang Yu and others completed the first step of their plan and entered the Guest House.

The allocation of rooms is very simple. Sharp-billed Monkey Gill must sleep in the wing room. After all, he needs to be responsible for digging the tunnel. You can't dig in the flower hall on the first floor of the second floor. If someone from Shushan comes to visit, it will be easy to find the problem. Qin Yufeng said that he also lived in the wing room, and if anything happened to Huang Hualang, he could help take care of it. Of course, everyone has to come when we are actually working. If you live on the opposite side, it will be closer.

It goes without saying that there are three rooms on the second floor. Zhang Yu and Kong Yi are a couple in name. If they don't live together and are found out, they will have to help each other. So, we still have to live together. Yao Sanchun and Gao Jinbao each live in one room, and the allocation is completed.

During the day, Huanghualang did not dare to work, so he asked people from the Shushan sect to prepare lunch. The Shushan sect is all vegetarian, so the food served was to Kong Yi's liking. Others were hungry, so they had to make do with what they had.
