The years when I explored the fairyland

Chapter 2 2: Threaten, eat up the whole family

"Want a bill?"

Chu Zhou had a look of confusion on his face, but when he looked at Shopkeeper Li, he seemed to have some understanding.

In the memory of the original person, he always felt that Xuanzhen Lao Dao was a liar, and it was not without reason.

At least, in the four or five years he had followed Xuanzhen Lao Dao, he had never seen the so-called ghosts and evil spirits.

Regardless of whether it is a ritual performed after death, or whether believers come here to pray to gods and Buddhas, ask for fortune-telling, and ask for divination, most of them are just used to fool people.

Even though the old Taoist Xuanzhen always says that he has not opened his eyes and cannot see ghosts, people always have some doubts about things they have never seen.

However, the Xuanzhen Taoist can be so open-minded, can build this Xuanzhen Temple by himself, and can convince so many smart people, so he naturally has some abilities.

Not to mention other things, he is a master in medicine.

Whenever a patient comes here, he mixes the medicine with talisman water and treats them together, which often yields miraculous results.

As for whether it is the effect of talisman water or the effect of herbs, it is really difficult to say.

Anyway, Chu Zhou, the big disciple, didn’t understand it!

Since herbs are used, there are naturally suppliers, and Zhanji Pharmacy is one of them, generally providing finished medicinal materials for Xuanzhenguan.

At the beginning of the cooperation, of course, it was one knot at a time, but later on more often, and after trust was established, it became three knots.

Xuanzhen Lao Dao still has a good reputation and has never had any problems before.

But the problem is, Master Xuanzhen is dead now...

His thoughts were spinning, and Chu Zhou's eyes became a bit sharp: "I don't know what accounts Xuanzhenguan and your Sihai Gang have to settle?"

"Of course we don't have it, but Zhanji Pharmacy does!"

The scars on Zou Wu's face trembled, as if he was smiling, but showed a ferocious look. He waved his hand and said, "Shopkeeper Li, are you here to speak?"

"ah?"

Shopkeeper Li is an old man in his fifties, with a thin build, and shrinks in the shadow of the big men.

He met Chu Zhou's gaze and dodged slightly, but feeling the malice around him, he had no choice but to take a step forward: "Master Chu, Zhan Ji's Pharmacy has been owned by the Sihai Gang.

Therefore, Xuan Zhen Guan's debt at Zhan Ji Pharmacy had to be settled with the Sihai Gang. "

Zou Wu immediately said: "Did you hear clearly? Master Chu, please pay the bill?"

After a pause, he turned to look at Shopkeeper Li and said, "How much does it cost?"

"A total of thirty taels of silver and six hundred and fifty large coins!"

"That's the algorithm of your drug store. When we, the Sihai Gang, lend money to foreign countries, we always come home nine times out of ten.

The total is thirty taels and six hundred and fifty big coins. After calculation, it must be, it must be..."

Zou Wu's calculations were obviously not good. He was stuck for a long time and couldn't figure out how much it was. However, there was a boy on the side who was clever. With a wave of his hand, he twisted shopkeeper Li's neck and asked, "How much is it?"

"Three, thirty-nine taels of silver and eight hundred and forty-five grand!"

"Yes, that's the number!"

Zou Wu glanced at the younger brother and gave him an appreciative look. When he turned back, he was already in front of Chu Zhou.

He looked down from a high position with a joking look in his eyes: "Master Chu, repaying debts is a matter of course, so don't delay!"

"You are robbing me openly!"

A childish voice sounded, but two little Taoist boys came out of the back hall. One of them, with a slightly childish voice, loudly rebuked: "Shopkeeper Li, how many pharmacies were willing to cooperate with my Xuanzhenguan in the first place?

If the owner of your Zhanji Drug Store hadn't come several times, given you discounts, and was willing to settle the bill, do you think I, Xuanzhen Guan, would have chosen you? "

The name of the speaker is "Yi Huai", that is, the little Taoist priest who is knocking his forehead to the ground. Despite his young age, he has quite a temper.

To be precise, he is a typical example of 'bullying the weak and fearing the strong'.

Internally, he is extremely afraid of the old Taoist Xuan Zhen and is deeply afraid of being thrown away by the old Taoist. Externally, he looks arrogant and has a loud voice.

Behind him was another little Taoist named "Xu Cheng". He was taller and somewhat smart, but his personality was a bit cowardly.

The group of big men stopped there and frightened him so much that he had no choice but to hide behind his junior brother.

That's right, it's Junior Brother!

In fact, he and Yi Huai started at the same age, and they were the same age. It was just that Yi Huai was younger, so he became a junior brother, and he became a senior brother.

Together with Chu Zhou, the senior brother, they are all the disciples of Xuanzhen Lao Dao.

Yi Huai's loud scolding still had some effect. At least shopkeeper Li looked quite ashamed. He said: "Old man, old man is just a shopkeeper, what he said doesn't count, it doesn't count!

Zhanji Drug Store has been given to the Sihai Gang by Mr. Zhan, but I am, but there is nothing I can do. "

"Why are you talking so much nonsense!"

Zou Wu interrupted sharply and ignored the two little Taoist boys. He just stared at Chu Zhou and said, "Little Taoist Master, so what if I robbed you clearly?

If you have a good reputation as a teacher, even if you file a lawsuit with the county government, you won't be able to afford the money! "

After a pause, he said earnestly: "Taoist Master Xuanzhen is no longer here, and you three little guys can't hold on to this foundation. It's true that you should exchange some money as soon as possible and have some spare money on hand!"

Chu Zhou had completely calmed down. He took a step back and said, "Can you please stay away from me and talk? The bad breath is so bad!"

"you……"

Chu Zhou took a few more steps back before saying, "Where's the bill? Of course I, Xuan Zhen Guan, won't refuse, but you don't have the qualifications to rob me!"

Saying this, he looked at Shopkeeper Li again and asked: "At the beginning, we made the rules. My master signed a business contract with your employer and had it certified by the government office.

As of March 1st, there is no interest, everything is clearly written in black and white.

I remember shopkeeper Li was there at that time? "

"Ah, yes, yes!"

"So, is it too early to ask for the account?"

Chu Zhou said this to Zou Wu. He was not so fierce, but he spoke confidently: "If I remember correctly, March ends on March 1, and there is still about a month and a half left.

And when it comes to accounts, it’s not just how much you say. I have to calculate it carefully here too. "

"This is not something you bring a bunch of people here to make a fuss about and then end it."

After a pause, Chu Zhou said again: "Of course, if you think something is wrong, then we will go to the magistrate's house to see if the contract is signed. Do you mean what you say?"

"you……"

Zou Wu's expression changed. He looked at Chu Zhou not far away. There was no trace of panic in him, only a confident calmness.

After a moment of pause, he said: "I heard someone say that Master Chu was smashed on the head by a ghost, his courage was shattered, and he became stupid and stupid.

When I saw it today, it really didn’t live up to its name! "

Chu Zhou didn't hide it: "It was really chaotic the past few days, but with the protection of my mentor, Jiuquan, it has been mostly better."

After a pause, he took a few steps forward, came closer, and whispered: "I know that you are a pathfinder for some people, and I also know that my master is dead, and some people find Xuanzhen Guan an eyesore.

However, there is also a saying you should have heard. "

"What?"

“The first rafter will die first!!!”

Chu Zhou came closer and said in a lower voice: "I will pay back the money, but please don't push too hard, Mr. Zou Wu.

Otherwise, Xuan Zhen Guan may not be here anymore, and the Sihai Gang may still be there, but it’s hard to say for Master Zou alone! "

"After all, although my master is dead, he still left a lot of incense and affection after so many years of operation.

I just don’t know, is there anyone who is willing to inherit this incense passion and take this Xuanzhen view in a legitimate way? "

"You kid..."

Suddenly turning his head, Zou Wu looked at Chu Zhou's young face, and his face muscles couldn't help but jump a few times.

He really didn't expect that this boy, who usually seemed to be submissive and Xuanzhen, would have such a kind of character.

Without waiting for Zou Wu to say anything, Chu Zhou took a few steps back, distanced himself, and said with a smile: "In that case, Master Zou Wu, we've settled on it.

When the accounts are reconciled and the deadline is reached, the money that should be given will be a lot, how about it? "

This is the next step.

Zou Wu took a deep look at Chu Zhou, hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "Of course that is the best.

It's late at night, so I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye! "

As he spoke, he cupped his hands and turned around to leave without waiting for anyone else's reaction.

However, as he approached the gate, his voice rang out: "I'm leaving, but there will be others coming. I just hope that next time, the little Taoist priest can still convince them!"

After speaking, he no longer hesitated and disappeared into the darkness.

The big men he brought were a little confused, but their reactions were quick. They followed one by one, and within a moment, they were all gone.

The old servant Dong Bo who guarded the door was smarter this time. After seeing a group of people filing out, he closed the door almost without hesitation.

A gate separated the inside and outside, and seemed to also isolate this farce.

Outside the door, a group of people had lit torches to light up the way.

The relatively clever boy came up to Zou Wu and asked a little strangely: "Fifth Master, are we going back like this?"

Zou Wu turned his head, glanced at him, and said: "Who stepped on the plate during the day? When you get back, drag him out and beat him up.

Damn it, this little Taoist priest is actually called a fool?

If he is a fool, I think you all have no brains! "

The younger brother couldn't hold his head up after being scolded, but he still said: "Fifth Master, let's go back like this. Isn't it hard to explain to Master Zhan?"

"An explanation? What explanation should I give him?"

Zou Wu turned around and looked at Xuanzhen Temple, his expression a little more solemn in the dark night: "I just took over a medicine shop, the worst I can do is to give up!"

"Let's go, don't look back!"

Saying this, they left quickly.

The sky in front of them was getting darker and darker, and even the carefully selected men couldn't help but speed up their pace.

At the same time, in the main hall, Chu Zhou stood there, not moving for a long time, but his eyes changed, and his face was uncertain.

After a long time, Xu Cheng and Yi Huai came forward. Yi Huai, the third child, wanted to speak, but Chu Zhou's face was too frightened to speak.

On the other hand, Xu Cheng, the second eldest brother, said: "Elder brother, what on earth is going on?"

Chu Zhou did not answer immediately, but paused for a long time, then lowered his head slightly, looked at the two younger junior brothers, and uttered a few words:

"They are trying to kill everyone!"

Tentatively, there will be two updates per day, which will be posted around 6pm!
