Chapter 4: Taking advantage of convenience

The young fox looked at the show with great interest, feeling a little surprised by their fate.

"This reaction, it turns out that we don't know where each other is going. It seems that you met later than I thought."

Xie Zhe and Ye Linghua were still looking at each other. Now, the way they looked at each other was different. It seemed that both parties thought of each other too simply. After staring for a long time, Ye Linghua finally became dry.

Said:

"Ah, you also...are you looking for the Master of the Shadow Pavilion?"

"...Well, yes." Xie Zhe didn't shy away from it, "I'm going to get something. The monk I told you about on the way entrusted the master of the Death Shadow Pavilion with a sword and asked him to keep it for him.

I don’t know when he put it there, but now he asked me to pick it up.”

"oh……"

The other two people looked at the hanging loop on his belt at the same time, and it turned out that it was prepared for this purpose.

"What kind of sword is that?"

"I don't know. I won't know until I go there. I'm afraid there are other things to explain to me there."

Ling Huan nodded: "That's right...I heard that the Shadow Pavilion knows everything and can do anything. I have something to ask for."

The red fox spirit thought for a moment, raised her chin, and asked her curiously:

"But don't you need corresponding remuneration for doing things in the Shadow Pavilion? Although it doesn't mean that there must be an equal exchange, but do you have anything important that you can take out, and is it worthy of what you ask for?"

"There should be..."

Ling Huan didn't say what it was, she just wrapped her snow cap tightly. She was no longer cold, she just wanted to do this.

"What about you?" she asked, "where does Mr. Zhongli want to go?"

"Oh, don't be so outspoken. Just call me Han Zhang. If that doesn't work, you can also call me Brother Zhang."

Before Ye Lingquan could say anything, Xie Zhe suddenly said, "Why do you always want to take advantage of others?"

Ling Huan also muttered, she said: "You are a monster, you must be very old, right? Maybe you can be my grandfather."

"...Has anyone ever told you that saying this is hurtful?"

"Really? Then, then I'm sorry..."

"Hey, just teasing you."

"I take it seriously! It's so annoying." Ling Huan complained, "You still didn't tell us where you were going. It's not fair."

Han Shang laughed heartily again. At first, looking at him, one really thought he was a handsome young man, a rich young man, but now I know he is a monster... Although there is nothing real about his appearance, it always feels less serious.

"I was originally going to a friend's house far away. I had to tell them my current situation. However, although it was not a smooth journey - I also wanted to go to Death Shadow Pavilion now. Although I had heard of this place in the past,

But I don’t have any acquaintances to recommend me, and I don’t have any idea about this choice because of my lack of understanding. In this case, I want to go with you so that I can ask about my brother’s situation.”

"ah?"

"Why, are you unhappy?"

Ling Huan repeatedly denied: "No, no... it just feels quite sudden. Don't you think about it more? And, do you have anything that can be exchanged? The more important the thing, the heavier the price you have to pay."

"What about you?" Han Chang leaned his head over and said, "Let me have a look."

"what……"

Ling Huan cautiously hugged the bag next to him with a reluctant expression.

"What are you doing? I won't take it away." Han Chang shook his head and looked at Xie Zhe, "I almost forgot about you. What about you?"

"You'd better forget about me. I'm going to get something, there's no need to exchange it."

"Oh... give me some advice."

"...You can figure it out on your own, there's no point in asking me. That's your business."

While the two young men were chatting, Ling Huan untied the baggage. She took out something from it, held it in her hands, and looked at it blankly for a long time. After the two men finished speaking, they turned to look this way. Who was it?

I once thought that Xie Zhe's expression changed.

He stood up immediately and took one step in front of Ling Huan. She was startled. Raising her head, she looked at Xie Zhe's face that was much more serious than before, feeling a little scared for no reason.

"What, what's wrong..."

"How come you have such a thing?"

Hanshang looked over and saw that it was a red shiny object. There were holes on it, so it might be empty.

"I, I... took it from home."

"What does your family do?"

"Antique business... why are you so serious all of a sudden?"

Ling Huan was puzzled. She stuffed the xun into her arms, as if she was afraid of being snatched away. Xie Zhe was stunned for a moment, realizing that he was a little lost. He stepped back blankly, sat back on the blanket, shook his head, and sighed.

Han Chang didn't know why he had such a big reaction, so he looked at Ling Huan a few more times. He said tentatively:

"Can you lend it to me? I promise not to take it..."

Ling Huan actually didn't care that much, she was just a little frightened, so she reached out and handed the object over. Only when Han Sheng took it into her hand did she realize that it was an instrument called Xun.

"Oh, I haven't seen a xun for a long time. Is it rare now? But the so-called 'Yituwei Xun', they are mostly made of pottery, and other materials are rare. This one seems to be... red onyx

, it’s a pretty expensive material, and the silk wrapping is pretty good..." He twirled it in his hands, "This

The thing must be very expensive, right? And it feels old. Hey, Sister Hu, do you know that when Xun was first created three thousand years ago, it was used to lure birds for hunting, not as a musical instrument. At that time, it only had one or two holes.

, could only play one or two notes. Later he entered the palace."

"Hey, is that so?" Ling Huan nodded, "You know a lot. You must be very old."

But did he just take advantage of me in terms of title?

"I would be very happy if you didn't say the last sentence..."

Xie Zhe still seemed to be thinking about something. He stared at the agate xun in Han Sheng's hand, and followed it back to Ling Huan's hand. He sighed and said, "That is indeed agate. But... how did your family do this?"

Something?"

"Is it valuable?" Ling Huan was a little worried, "I thought it was quite valuable. When I first got it, my father hid it without telling anyone. But I discovered it. It was just the xun.

It has been kept in the collection room and he has never looked at it again.

The thing just kept gathering dust there. I originally went there to take out whatever I wanted, but no one would care about it anyway. I saw it in the cabinet and took it out without thinking much. I tried blowing it before.

It doesn’t play… is it really an instrument?”

"It's good to be able to blow the whistle." Xie Zhe pinched the bridge of his nose, "It seems you really don't know anything about it."

Before Ling Huan asked, Han Shang spoke. I don't know if he just remembered it or if he had known about it all along but didn't say anything.

"You want to say that this is a magic weapon that was passed down here from the Nine Heavens Kingdom after the War of the Gods a thousand years ago, right?"

"You know?"

"Yes, I know. But my eyes are not as sharp as yours, so you can't tell at a glance."

"Then you must know that this is something from heaven."

"Yes, this is the magical weapon of Kinnara, the goddess of song. She brought this xun from heaven to confuse the people."

Ling Huan sat on the edge of the bed and turned her head to look at them. She began to understand what they said to each other. But she could understand that this was not a good thing, and it looked very dangerous. But it was just let go.

It was placed in a box, placed in a cabinet, and locked in a warehouse. Its treatment was no different from that of most neglected collections. I didn't see any trouble with this thing.

"Although I don't know how your father got it, at least he must know what it is. No wonder you are in such a hurry. It would be okay if they caught you and went home." Xie Zhe shook his head, "I

It’s up to you, you’d better send your things home quickly, otherwise I’m afraid it will end badly.”

Han Chang's opinion was contrary to his. He crossed his legs again and said: "I don't think there is any need to be so nervous. As for business people, they will sell it one day if the guarantee is not enough. At that time, we still don't know what will spread.

Whose hands? I think it would be good for Sister Hu to give it to the Death Shadow Pavilion. At least it can be properly preserved in the hands of Liu Dao Wuchang."

"Is the Immortal Shadow Pavilion managed by the Six Paths of Impermanence?"

"certainly."

Xie Zhe said nothing. He neither agreed nor refuted. Maybe he thought what the monster said was reasonable. After thinking about it, he still felt that something was wrong.

"But Death Shadow Pavilion... after all, it's a place for business. I don't know who will exchange it for what."

"You onmyojis just like to eat carrots and don't worry about it." Han Shan sighed, "It's been almost a thousand years, and I haven't seen anything happen to any magic weapon. Don't worry about other people's family affairs. Her father's things, whether they are or not.

What’s hers is not yours anyway.”

"...Okay."

Xie Zhe shook his head helplessly. He thought to himself that he could only see what the master of Shiyingying Pavilion said. Han Chang seemed to be very interested in Ye Lingquan's affairs. He asked with great interest:

"What do you want to ask for when you bring such a valuable thing to the Master of the Dead Shadow Pavilion? I think you are considered to be extremely wealthy. Is there anything that can't be solved with money?"

"The richer you are, the more you will find that there are more things that money cannot solve..."

Han Chang knew she had no other intentions, but couldn't help but sigh: "I also want to have this kind of trouble."

Xie Zhe rolled his eyes at him and said lightly that the vixen was cheating and abducting him and was not short of money. The latter scoffed.

Ling Huan put a hand to his mouth and asked cautiously: "Did I say the wrong thing..."

Xie Zhe motioned for her to continue: "Ignore him. Just keep talking. We understand what you mean. Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't want to say it."

"Well...you must remember that on the carriage, I said that I had a distant cousin."

"Yeah. You were born a few days apart, and your names are very similar."

"Yes. At that time, because our mothers were recuperating in the same villa, we played together since childhood. The second character of her name is the character "Yin", and adults often got our names wrong. At first, we

There is no difference... maybe we grew up together. Even though our bloodlines are far apart, our looks are very similar. At that time, my Lingzi was not what I am now."
