Chapter 4: The maid with more than a dozen wisps of age

Is it expensive?

Anle took a deep breath, to be able to have Huang Captou describe it like this... that was definitely not an easy matter.

But how could his sketch attract such a noble person to ask for a painting?

The sketching method is indeed rare and strange in this era. It uses lines to outline the characters. It is very different from the ink painting method, but it is more realistic.

However, he is just an ordinary painter no matter what, how can he act like an indescribably noble person and ask for paintings in person?

Being favored by a noble person has its advantages and disadvantages. After all, Anle knows nothing about the so-called temperament of a noble person.

If Anle hadn't awakened to the light curtain that could absorb the energy of time, he might have really planned to give it a try and get acquainted with noble people, and maybe the road ahead would be better.

But now, he can absorb the energy of time, awaken the Tao Fruit, and silently grow and become stronger.

There is no need to take this risk.

Seeing An Le frowning, as if he had a puzzled look on his face, and even looking like he was retreating, Huang Xian understood what he was worried about and what he was thinking.

"Mr. An, don't worry. As a nobleman, I will never embarrass Mr. An. In fact, the nobleman accidentally bought Mr. An's paintings and found them novel, so he asked Huang to find the painter and invite him to paint.

"

"Actually, Mr. An is not the only painter invited by the noble Lord..."

"It is still unclear whether Mr. An will be able to get the quota to paint for noble people."

"But Huang can guarantee that this noble man behaves kindly. Even if Mr. An is not selected, there will never be any danger or life-threatening. He will even get the carriage fare arranged by the noble man."

Huang Xian said.

An Le suddenly became energetic: "I dare to ask Huang Captou about the cost of the carriage and horse..."

"Starting with ten taels of silver." Huang Xian smiled: "If you are selected to paint, the labor fee will be at least ten times the cost of carriage and horse."

"Huang Captou, it doesn't matter whether he paints or not. An mainly admires the elegant demeanor of noble people."

Anle said seriously.

Of course, Anle is not all about money. The main thing is what Huang Xian said. If Anle doesn't go, it will be a disgrace to Huang Xian's face. By then, instead of offending the nobleman, he will offend Huang Xian, which is not worth the loss.

Huang Xian was the head catcher of the Black Yamen. The Black Yamen... was the yamen that specialized in managing the affairs of practitioners. Some practitioners who committed crimes were arrested by the Black Yamen arresters.

If you offend such people, Anle will never be able to live in peace in the future.

Now I just want to go with the flow. Anyway, even if I am not selected, the other party will give me enough money.

"Hahaha, Mr. An, you don't need to prepare anything. Everything you need is available to you. So, Mr. An... please."

Huang Xian stood up, holding a knife in one hand and waving his other hand toward the outside of the inn, in a farewell gesture.

An Le turned sideways, bowed his hands, and said politely, "Huang Captou please go first."

Afterwards, the two of them left the inn one after another and stepped onto the lively long street of Lin'an Mansion.





Lin'an's long street is very lively. After a spring rain, the sunshine is clear. Scholars who are staying at home come out one after another to bathe in the sunshine, breathe in the fresh air after the rain, and buy some gadgets and eat from street vendors.

Snacks.

Huang Xian didn't say much. After leaving the inn, he walked along with Anle, walking on the slightly muddy bluestone street. After a while, the pedestrians on the road gradually became sparse, because the place they arrived at was no longer a place where ordinary people could set foot.

Anle's eyes were quickly attracted to a mansion in the distance.

The walls of the mansion are made of bluestone, which stretches endlessly. There are branches spreading between the gray tiles on the wall, and the greenery is hurried. There are no stone lions or Xiezhi in front of the door. Instead, there is a stone tablet and jade square, which is majestic and has a bit of nobility.

Behind the vermilion gate, there is a towering pavilion with eight treasures and double eaves dripping water, with clear smoke from burning incense curling out.

"Mr. An, now you know what Huang said is precious, and you have never lied, right?"

Huang Xian looked at An Le, who was staring blankly at the mansion, and joked with a smile.

"This building and this stone tablet and jade square are the symbols. This eight-treasure double-eaves dripping sky wave building is a gift from the Holy Emperor. There are gold books and iron coupons enshrined in it, which can avoid the sin of nine deaths! All civil and military officials in the court,

Passing this stone monument and jade square, you have to dismount from your horse. Mr. An, do you think this Tianbolin Mansion is expensive?"

Huang Xian was full of respect, and his respect was even more sentimental and complicated.

"Tianbo Lin Mansion..." Anle murmured.

"Tianbo Lin Mansion is full of loyal people. The old Linggong of Kaifu Lin is a peerless practitioner. He has a golden sword and can kill foreigners with fear. He is called Lin Invincible. All the sons of the Lin family are extremely talented and rush to the battlefield to kill.

Make a great name."

"Back then, Emperor Yuan Meng broke through the Holy Land and came with a large army to coerce him. The imperial court decided to move the capital to the south. Old Linggong held a golden sword to cut off the Holy Queen. He fought eight foreign kings in a bloody battle, and finally killed three kings. He was loyal and courageous.

, everyone knows it!”

Huang Xian took a deep breath, with a vibrato in his voice.

An Le looked sideways, it was obvious that Huang Captou had some connection with the Lin family.

Huang Xian calmed down and said nothing. He walked to the closed door of Lin Mansion and knocked on the door. The vermilion door slowly opened, and a young girl with a fire stick tied around her waist came out in a hurry.

"Have you found the painter with weird painting style named Huang Captou?" the girl asked in surprise.

"Miss Zhuifeng, this is the painter you asked Huang to find, Mr. An." Huang Xian pointed to Anle standing at the foot of the steps.

The girl named Zhui Feng turned around and saw An Le's delicate features, her eyes couldn't help but light up.

And Anle looked at the girl chasing the wind, and her eyes were filled with excitement.

How can you refuse today's peace and happiness to this girl who carries more than a dozen traces of age all over her body?

This girl's aura of age is almost the same as that of An Le's first love, Fairy Yunrou.

It can be judged that the two should be equivalent in cultivation.

"What a handsome painter. After seeing a lot of bad old men and sour scholars, this young man is really handsome." The girl grinned.

"I'm Anle, a person from Chongzhou. I've seen Miss Zhui Feng." Anle bowed his hands.

"If you can draw well, we will see each other every day in the future." Girl Zhuifeng pursed her lips and smiled, raised a finger and pointed at Anle: "I'm just a maid in the house, you don't need to be polite, come with me.

Handsome painter."

Anle was startled, but the maid...had a cultivation level that was not weaker than that of Fairy Yunrou?

Are all maids so introverted now?

"Mr. An, paint well and try to be selected. Huang will go back to the Yamen first. If Miss Zhui Feng has anything else to do for Huang, just ask her. Huang will leave first." Huang Captou smiled, cupped his fists and said,

After saying that, he left quickly.

Anle bid farewell to Huang Captou and followed Miss Zhuifeng into the mansion.

As soon as he entered the house, Anle saw the dripping Tianbo Tower with eight treasures and double eaves at a close distance. He could even vaguely see the sound of chanting scriptures coming from the building, which was even more majestic.

"Mr. An's painting was purchased by Jiumei. When Jiumei saw that the woman in the painting was lifelike and real, she thought of it and invited Mr. An to paint it."

Girl Chai Feng said while leading the way.

"Young master An, have you just started to practice? The spiritual energy in your body is uncontrollably flowing out."

Suddenly, the girl chasing the wind took a step back and glanced at Anle curiously.

"I just completed the Qi Enlightenment yesterday." An Le was not ashamed and said with a smile, while calmly extracting a wisp of time energy from the girl chasing the wind.

The gray age energy lingers in front of my eyes and slowly penetrates into my body. I feel a little regretful for peace and happiness. It is not the golden age energy, and it is difficult to condense the Tao Fruit.

I had to inhale Fairy Yunrou three times before inhaling the golden age energy. Anle was not in a hurry. If it didn't work once, just inhale a few more times and it would be fine.

However, Anle did have a reason to stand out among many painters and stay in painting.

After all, these days, it is not easy to find a high-quality girl who can pluck wool.

Anle subconsciously wanted to take another wisp.

However, as soon as the thought came out, the column of time and energy in the light curtain began to beat again.

It happened accidentally from the girl chasing the wind...

Another breath of time!
