Li Muchan and the girl arrived at the top floor of the restaurant, which was a small room. When he opened the window, he could see people walking like ants outside, looking down at all living beings, which gave him a sense of transcendence.
There were only Li Muchan and the girl in the house, and the servant in gray stood at the door, as if guarding the door, slightly lowering his eyes, turning a blind eye to everything.[]
The two of them were sitting at the table by the window. Li Muchan smiled and said, "Brother also knows calligraphy?"
"I know a thing or two." The girl put down the folding fan, picked up the box, opened it, then took out the scroll, spread it out gently, looked at the calligraphy that looked like a mess of grass, shook her head and said with a smile: "To be honest, I don't see what's good about it!
"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "There is an edge between the turns of this calligraphy, but it is restrained. This feeling suits my temperament very well. It has nothing to do with whether the calligraphy is good or bad, I just like it.
"That's it!" The girl gently chinned her head, slowly closed it, and said with a smile: "I haven't asked you your name yet. My surname is Chai, and my given name is Ming."
"It turns out to be Brother Chai. My surname is Li, Li Muchan." Li Muchan smiled.
Chai Ming smiled and said: "Mr. Li seems to be a scholar."
Every move she makes exudes a cheerful aura, without any trace of womanly rouge. If it weren't for Li Muchan's sharp eyes, it would be difficult for ordinary people to recognize her as a daughter.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "I have been down and out for half my life and have accomplished nothing. I am so ashamed!"
"Where is Mr. Li now?" Chai Ming asked with a smile.
Li Muchan said: "Being a teacher in a house and teaching calligraphy is really not worth laughing at. Judging from Brother Chai's aura, he is either rich or noble."
"Me, I don't mean anything." Chai Ming shook his head and said, "We got to know each other through calligraphy. It's also a kind of fate, isn't it?"
"Fate" Li Muchan smiled and said: "It seems that Brother Chai still understands Buddhism."
"I know a little bit about it." Chai Ming said with a smile: "I have met a few monks and listened to their discussion of scriptures but I don't quite understand them. Sir, why don't you start copying them!"
She seemed a little impatient, feeling that she underestimated Li Muchan's identity, so she didn't want to have a deeper relationship with him.
Li Muchan smiled and nodded, but he breathed a sigh of relief, but this Chai Ming was very weird, and he also had a sacred weapon hidden on his body. Is this sacred weapon so worthless?!
He came to the desk next to him. The inkstone had been sharpened. He slowly opened the scroll, admired the cursive calligraphy, and admired it.
He laid out the paper and picked up the pen to write when Chai Ming smiled and said: "Forget it, Mr. Li, it is fate that we meet each other. I will give this to you, so don't copy it!"
Li Muchan turned his head and looked in surprise.
Chai Ming said with a smile: "I am actually unreasonable and bully others. It is rare for Mr. Li to be so self-restrained. I really admire him!"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Bai Wuyi is a scholar. I'm just a coward and don't want to cause trouble. Besides, it's really not worthwhile to start a dispute over external things!"
"Mr. Li has such a big heart, I admire him!" Chai Ming clapped his hands and exclaimed, "This is the most appropriate gift to give to Mr. Li. You don't have to be polite!"
Li Muchan nodded slowly: "Then I will be disrespectful!"
He put away the scroll, put it into the wooden box, then clasped his fists and said with a smile: "How about we say goodbye for now and meet again in the future?"
"It seems that Mr. Li also understands Buddhism." Chai Ming suddenly became interested and said with a smile: "How about we talk about it after having a drink?"
Li Muchan smiled and said, "Okay."
When he meets a cheerful person, he becomes cheerful.
After half-drinking, Li Muchan's face looked as usual, but Chai Ming's cheeks were flushed, his eyes were full of water, and he was charming and charming, showing off the charm of a woman.
"Mr. Li, you have a good capacity for drinking!" she praised.
Li Muchan shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Chai's drinking capacity is not that of a young man. He is not as good as an old man like me."
Chai Ming chuckled, his voice was like a bell, and he said with a sweet smile: "Yes, I am not as good as an old man like you. I really deserve to be punished. Have another drink!"
She said, filling herself up with another glass and drinking it all in one gulp.
Li Muchan shook his head. He was promoted to the Grand Master and truly returned to his true nature. If he didn't show it, outsiders wouldn't be able to tell that he knew martial arts. Obviously, although Chai Ming was powerful, he didn't realize his own depth.
He looked like a down-and-out middle-aged scribe who didn't know martial arts, so she didn't use her internal strength when drinking. The wine in Guifenglou was extremely strong, so she quickly became drunk.
From this point, it can be seen that she is proud by nature and will never take advantage of others.
Li Muchan chuckled, poured a glass and drank it in one gulp. He didn't do any exercise, but his body was far beyond that of ordinary people, and he could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk.
The two drank one cup after another, and soon drank three cups in a row. Chai Ming's laughter was like a silver bell, clear and sweet, completely different from the voice he spoke before.
By this time, she had already revealed her flaw and returned to her daughter's appearance. The servant in gray clothes stood at the door with his eyes slightly lowered, paying no attention to her, like a statue.
However, Li Muchan pretended not to know, and the two of them drank another jar of wine. Not only did Chai Ming not get drunk, but he became more and more sober as he drank. Finally, he was completely sober, with bright eyes and clear eyes.
Li Muchan has never been drunk. There are already six empty wine jars in the room, exuding a rich and mellow aroma. These six jars of wine are all rare spirits.
"Mr. Li, what a joke." Chai Ming clapped his hands, poured out the last drop of wine from the last wine jar, threw the jar aside, and picked up the silver cup.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "We had a great time drinking today. We feel like old friends at first sight. Brother Chai, let's part ways after this drink. There is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever."
Chai Ming said with a smile: "I really don't want to say goodbye to my husband! ... Although my husband is a scholar, he is free and easy and aloof. He is really a fairy-like figure!"
She had read a lot of people. Li Muchan seemed ordinary at first glance, but he was a down-and-out scholar. After getting in touch with him, he found that he was rich in knowledge and profound insights, and he was definitely an ordinary person.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "I'm just an ordinary person in this world. I'd like to thank you for your compliments. Thank you very much for this painting. We'll meet again if we are destined!"
"Sir, don't tell me where you live, so I can visit you next time?" Chai Ming asked with a smile.
Li Muchan smiled: "Then it depends on our fate."
Chai Ming shook his head: "Fate is too elusive, but I still like to seize the opportunity."
Li Muchan pondered for a moment and then said with a smile: "Okay, now I am working as a teacher in Dugu Mansion. If Brother Chai wants to find me, you can come to Dugu Mansion."
"Dugu Mansion?" Chai Ming's eyes widened.
Li Muchan nodded and smiled: "A small teacher is insignificant. Although Dugu Mansion is big, it has nothing to do with me, and I am not considered a member of the Dugu family."
Chai Ming looked Li Muchan up and down, shook his head and said, "Sir, this outfit really doesn't look like someone from the Dugu family!"
"Brother Chai also knows about the Dugu family?" Li Muchan said with a smile.
"Who in the capital doesn't know about the Dugu family?" Chai Ming shook his head and laughed, looking at Li Muchan's green shirt: "The Dugu family is well-dressed and well-fed, but they are so harsh on their teachers?"
Li Muchan hurriedly waved his hands and said with a smile: "No, this is not the fault of the Dugu family. I'm just used to such clothes, and suddenly I can't wear brocade clothes."
"I see." Chai Ming suddenly nodded and said with a smile: "Sir, you are not moved by wealth, right? ... That's great. Since you are at Dugu's house, it will be easy to find you!"
Li Muchan said: "Brother Chai is related to the Dugu family?"
Chai Ming nodded with a smile: "It's a small relationship. I will go to their house occasionally and see you sir then. Let's go!"
After saying that, she chuckled lightly, waving the folding fan and walked out. The servant in gray opened the door and left with her. Only Li Muchan was left in the room.
Li Muchan sat quietly for a moment, picked up the wooden box and left Guifeng Tower.
Along the way, he was wondering who this Chai Ming was. She was not from one of the four great families, and she had a dangerous aura and a sacred weapon. What was even weirder was that the mental skills she cultivated were strange and his mental powers were ineffective.
When he was not promoted to the Grand Master, his mental powers occasionally failed, usually those who had practiced strange mental methods, such as He Lizhu, Magnolia of the Sea, and Feng Mingxue.
Now that he has advanced to the realm of Grand Master, his psychic powers have been strengthened again, and he can faintly sense their thoughts. This will only become ineffective in the presence of the Four Holy Monks.
When he faced this Chai Ming, it failed again. The martial arts practiced by Chai Ming was extremely extraordinary.
More importantly, the current emperor's surname is Chai, and the current emperor's surname is Chai Taifeng.
It seems that this Chai Ming may be from the royal family, no wonder he is so impressive, but he does not have the air of a playboy, which is rare.
He returned to Dugu Mansion, and when he arrived at his small courtyard, he happened to see Dugu Jinghua and Feng Mingxue talking in the small pavilion, chatting and laughing, and they got along quite well.
When he came in, the two women looked over and Dugu Jinghua asked, "What did you buy, sir?"
Li Muchan smiled and handed it over: "A piece of calligraphy and painting."
Dugu Jinghua stroked his palms: "I almost forgot. My husband likes calligraphy. There are some original works in the house. You can go and look at them when you have time. If you like them, you can play with them."
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Okay, it's rare to see a piece of good calligraphy. Miss Jiu is proficient in this, right?"
Dugu Jinghua shook his head and said: "I was too weak to practice calligraphy at the beginning. I'll see if I can do it, but I won't be able to write it myself."
Li Muchan shook his head and sighed: "What a pity!"
"Senior sister, where are you?" Li Muchan asked Feng Mingxue again.
Feng Mingxue said: "I practiced for a while, but I wasn't very proficient."
Li Muchan also shook his head and said: "You should practice calligraphy. Calligraphy is connected with heaven and earth, and it is the secret method of attaining the Tao."
Feng Mingxue raised her eyebrows and nodded slowly. Dugu Jinghua smiled and said, "Okay, since your husband told you, I will also learn calligraphy from him!"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "After learning it, you will definitely benefit a lot. This calligraphy contains mysteries. It's a pity that you can't understand it because you can't calligraphy."
The two girls suddenly became curious, and Feng Mingxue said: "Junior brother, what's the mystery?"
Li Muchan said: "There is a set of sword skills hidden in this calligraphy, which is absolutely extraordinary.
"Sword skills hidden in calligraphy?" Dugu Jinghua was surprised.
Feng Mingxue spread out the scroll and looked at it carefully. After a while, he shook his head and couldn't tell. Dugu Jinghua also came over to look at it, and all he could see was a mess of grass. He really couldn't tell the sword skill.
Li Muchan said: "I will practice it for you after meditating for a while. By the way, I met an interesting little guy today, whose pseudonym is Chai Ming. He said he has a close relationship with Dugu Mansion. Does Ninth Miss recognize him?"
"Chai Ming?" Dugu Jinghua was surprised, showing a strange look. (To be continued)
