Chapter 148 It’s hard for good people
Qi Yingnianfang came from a poor family, but she was smart and sensible. Her mother had already studied literature and martial arts with her father. At a young age, she could defeat a Nanshan tiger with two punches, and could write plum blossom stickers with both hands. She only regretted that she was a daughter who was incapacitated.
She joined the army to serve her country, so Miss Qi once swore an oath: "If you want to marry, marry a real man." She didn't know how many matchmakers were kicked out by her. Later, no matchmakers dared to come to her door anymore, and the girl who was as beautiful as a water spirit flower was
He has been waiting in the boudoir.
Qi Changshui saw that his daughter's affairs with the Gu family were so easy, he couldn't help but asked: "Xianglan, is it possible that you have a way?"
Xianglan smiled and said: "Dad, it stands to reason that we, as outsiders, should not care about Uncle Gu's family seeking immortality for their son. But does Daddy want to stand up for the Gu family just because he remembers that the Gu family has been kind to us?"
"Xianglan, drink water and remember the source, and the spring will repay you. Look at the son of the Gu family. People in Huizhou call him a fool. He has been learning the art of cultivating immortals all day long, and everyone is stupid. I watched the Gu family being deceived by evil people.
I was kept in the dark. You say I am nosy or worrying, but I just can’t stand it." Qi Changshui said angrily.
"Dad, do you want to talk to those two Taoist priests or give them a beating? To save people and save hearts, Uncle Gu has not yet awakened in his heart. Even if you drive away those two Taoist priests this time, there will be a second group of Taoist priests.
The Gu family cheated." Xianglan poured a cup of tea for Qi Changshui.
Qi Changshui drank tea and said: "Girl, then I just sit back and watch the Gu family be defeated by a liar?"
"Haha, daddy, you just need to..." Xianglan whispered something in Qi Changshui's ear, which made Qi Changshui keep nodding...
When Qi Changshui went out, he saw that Gu Jing had sold the drug store under his name for a low price to raise money for his son's alchemy. Gu Jing looked older and older.
When Gu Jing saw Qi Changshui, he nodded and exchanged greetings, then invited Qi Changshui into the house to drink tea. Qi Changshui followed Gu Jing into the house without refusing. Qi Changshui saw Gu Ming'en in the courtyard holding a book "
"Huainanzi" was watching with great interest while shaking his head, Gu Jing kept nodding.
Gu Jing smiled and said: "Ming'er, I came here to meet your Uncle Qi."
Nineteen-year-old Gu Ming'en can be regarded as a talented person, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a gentle manner. However, he has been obsessed with those miscellaneous books about immortality and enlightenment for many years, and he seems a bit dull. They say he has read too many books.
He will become a nerd, and he will become a nerd if he doesn't read enough and becomes a dilettante. As outsiders say, the eldest young master of the Gu family is a complete fool, and only the couple Gu Jing and Xu regard him as a treasure.
Gu Mingen put down his book and came over and said stupidly: "Uncle Qi." He lowered his head and remained silent again.
Gu Jingle said: "Ming'er, your two immortal masters have already gone to the Tianshan Mountains to find ten thousand-year-old snow clams for you. As long as they can collect eighteen kinds of heavenly and earthly treasures, they can refine the golden elixir for you."
Gu Ming'en became energetic just by mentioning the matter of cultivating immortals and refining elixirs, and said happily: "Dad, there are already fifteen of the eighteen things, except for the snow clams from Tianshan Mountains, the purple grass from the East China Sea, and the ones from Dahuang Mountain."
It’s a beautiful stone.”
Qi Changshui, who was standing by, asked in surprise: "Brother Gu, this place is separated from Tianshan by thousands of rivers and mountains. I wonder how long it will be until those two Taoists come back?"
Gu Jing laughed and patted Qi Changshui on the shoulder and said: "My dear brother, I don't know something. Those two Taoists are so profound in their immortal skills that they can come and go in the clouds and fog. Normally, if you go out quickly, it will take three or four days, and it will only take seven days."
They came back on the 8th, they don't look like we are riding horses and riding in carriages."
Qi Changshui asked again: "Brother Gu, did you see them flying in the clouds with your own eyes? Have you ever seen the things they brought back?"
"This...this is what they were told to avoid when they were practicing magic. I have never seen it before. The heavenly and earthly treasures they brought back were not close to ordinary people, and they were all put directly into the alchemy room." Qi Changshui secretly said
Surprised, Gu Jing heard what the two said was roughly the same as what his daughter guessed...
The head steward of the Gu family ran over in a hurry and said: "Master, the two immortal Taoists are here."
Gu Jing laughed loudly and said: "Brother Qi, you are here by chance. Let's go and see the two Taoist priests together."
Qi Changshui followed Gu Jing to the living room with his hands raised, and saw Tongtian and Chedi, a thin and fat Taoist priest, drinking tea arrogantly in the living room. There was a wooden niche box on the table.
Gu Jing bowed and said, "Thank you for your hard work, two masters."
Taoist Tongtian said without even raising his head: "Gu Shanren, we brothers are lucky enough to go to Tianshan Mountain. We used the thirty thousand taels of silver you gave us and spent all our efforts to beg for these ten thousand-year-old snow clams."
Gu Jing took out a few banknotes from his arms and thanked him profusely: "It's all thanks to the great master's magical power. Please don't dislike this little thought."
Qi Changshui frowned and said, "What kind of divine object can be obtained for thirty thousand taels of silver? The two Taoist priests should also open my eyes to this mortal."
Taoist Tongtian chuckled and said, "Even if I show it to you, you won't recognize it. If the snow clam opens the niche box and flies away, then something bad will happen."
Qi Changshui shook his head and said with a smile: "Can the two Taoist priests still be unable to do anything to a snow clam?"
Taoist Chedi said displeasedly: "It's okay to show it to you, otherwise you will think that we have defrauded the ancient good people out of their money!"
Taoist Di Che stood up and took off the wooden cover of the niche box. Gu Jing, his son, and Qi Changshui both leaned their heads and stared closely at the niche box. In the niche box, there was a half-dead creature with snow-white eyes.
A toad with red eyes. This kind of white toad is rare in Huizhou. The three of them couldn't explain it for a while. No one had seen such a thing before.
Taoist Tongtian smiled proudly and said: "You all can see clearly, why do we brothers come and go in the wind and rain? We just want to be able to refine the golden elixir for young master Gu as soon as possible. Gu Shanren will give it to us
Not even a tael of brother's money has gone into our own pockets, all of it has been spent on cultivating heavenly and earthly treasures. Not to mention the hard work and the fact that you are suspecting us behind our backs, brother, let's go. There is no way to refine this golden elixir.
Let’s go back to the Fairy Mountain as soon as possible and let the ancient good people hire someone else!”
When Gu Ming'en heard that the two Taoist priests were about to leave, he was as anxious as the Monkey King in the alchemy furnace of Taishang Laojun. He scratched his ears and cheeks and couldn't say a complete sentence, and stammered: "Dad... they...
...Golden elixir..., I...what should I do?"
Gu Jing also said with aggrieved face: "Master, please calm down. Master, please calm down. We have never doubted Master, it's just... just..."
The fat Taoist closed the niche box, turned around and said with a smile: "Brother Taoist, there is no need to be angry anymore. Gu Shanren is not the kind of villain who doubts us behind our back, but someone has ulterior motives." Taoist Chedi said as he spoke, the two of them
He kept glancing at Qi Changshui. Qi Changshui's face turned red with embarrassment from Taoist Che Di. He was about to say goodbye but Taoist Che Di pushed him back to his seat.
Taoist Chedi said unhurriedly: "The lamp cannot be lighted, and the words cannot be explained. Today, our brothers also give an explanation to Gu Shanren. No more villains will come to provoke Gu Shanren..." Qi
Changshui burst into anger, gritted his teeth and pushed Taoist Chedi away, and walked away without even saying goodbye...
Qi Changshui returned home angrily. Seeing his appearance, his daughter Qi Ying had already guessed something was going on. The girl went out alone and waited for the two Taoist priests outside the ancient house. She passed by a place with a cup of tea.
Soon two men in Taoist robes came out of the Gu family.
Qi Yingping was also a girl who never walked out of the door, but she was very sophisticated. She followed the two Taoists calmly. After the two Taoists left the Dongshi Gate, they turned to Cuiyan Alley.
Cuiyan Lane is a gold-selling den on the border of Huizhou, where all brothels and gambling houses are located. The two Taoists entered the largest Wanhua Building in Cuiyan Lane. Everyone in Huizhou knows that the front hall of this Wanhua Building is a gambling house.
There is a brothel behind, no matter how much money you have, it will be gone here.
The boy in front of the Wanhua Building should be very familiar with the two Taoists. When he saw the Taoist coming, he greeted him with a smile on his face. Qi Ying waited for the two Taoists to enter for a while before walking over calmly and calmly. The boy at the door saw Qi Ying moving towards
Wanhualou came over and stepped forward quickly to block her.
"Stop, little girl, Wanhualou doesn't accept female customers. Don't you know what Wanhualou is for?"
Qi Ying's face turned red but she immediately recovered. She smiled and said, "It was the two Taoist priests who just asked me to come. If you don't let me in, then I won't go in." Qi Ying turned around and walked back.
"Don't introduce me, don't introduce me. Miss, we have something to talk about. How did I know that you were invited by the Taoist Master? Please come in quickly, girl. I can't afford it if the Taoist Master blames me. Miss, please."
The charming smile on his face was completely different from before.
Qi Ying asked deliberately: "Ah! As soon as I was disturbed by such a dog like you, I forgot where the Taoist asked me to go to find him, so I won't enter your Wanhua Building. I'll wait for the old Taoist to come and you and the old Taoist will come here later."
Speak for yourself."
The boy's face was frightened by Qi Ying's words and he begged for mercy: "Auntie, you are my grandma. Those two Taoist priests spent money like dirt, and I can't afford to offend them. Nowadays, the front hall of Kungfu is a casino where money is played.
It hasn't opened yet, and the girls in the back hall haven't gotten up yet. The two masters must be in Building Tianzi No. 1. Girl, please don't make things difficult for me. Just treat me like a fart...
"The boy was crying at the end.
Qi Ying also knew that it was almost over and if she continued to cause trouble, it would be counterproductive to alarm the people in Wanhua Building. She snorted coldly at the boy and said, "I'll settle the score with you later." The boy watched Qi Ying walk in.
After arriving at Wanhua Tower, I dared to wipe off the white sweat on my forehead.
Qi Ying came to this fireworks place for the first time and saw a girl about her own age with one bare arm busy cleaning dice cups and sorting copper chips. Several big men were urging them to work. It seemed that the casino was about to open for business.
As soon as I passed through the front hall, I was stopped by a big teapot: "Hey, what are you doing?"
Qi Ying lowered her head and replied: "I am the new girl in Tianzi No. 1 Building."
Da Chapot glanced at Qi Ying suspiciously. There were really too many girls in Wanhua Building. The girls in Tianzi No. 1 Building didn't come out to pick up guests. Da Teapot really couldn't figure out who this strange girl was? Anyway, outside
Later, a woman came to the Wanhua Building. She grabbed Qi Ying's hand and shouted: "Damn girl, why don't you wait for the Taoist master in the building and go to the front hall? Come back with me..."
