To the east of the Yintian Cauldron, there is a lot of space to suppress the ancient monsters.
During a trip to the Yintang Cauldron, Su Jiu had always been puzzled about that formation. Where was the layout of the Yintang Cauldron? Su Jiu was puzzled. Now, in the small cave heaven paradise, he saw the Qiao Family Xuanyuan Cauldron.
Su Jiu didn't understand the situation.
Probably what kind of situation it is.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Jiu's heart moved.
It was decided immediately.
Go and see for yourself.
Prepare to follow in the footsteps of Mr. Qiao.
The small cave and heaven and earth are not that big.
Su Jiu followed quickly.
Bu Nao Su Jiu calmed down his aura slightly.
Didn't let them notice.
But no, Su Jiu knew it in his heart, and Mr. Qiao must have known it.
soon.
Su Jiu gave chase.
It's a very special place there.
To be precise, a pond.
The pond in Bu Nao has no water and is dry.
In the middle of the pond, there is a bottomless black hole.
And that fluctuation was exactly what was transmitted from the middle.
"Master Su, am I here?"
As expected, Qiao Yitian discovered Su Jiu and asked Su Jiu by mistake.
"Master Qiao, I'm offended!"
Su Jiu said apologetically.
"It's okay." Qiao Yitian's face looked slightly solemn.
"Why, Master Qiao, is the matter serious?"
Su Jiu saw that scene and asked.
"It's a bit troublesome!"
"How to say?"
"..."
The two started talking there.
Qiao Yitian did not deal with the matter there immediately, but slowly talked to Su Jiuxu.
After a while, Su Jiu finally realized why.
It turns out things are not like that!
There is a story involved in it.
…
At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the magistrate of Pixian County was named Zhang Zihan. He was eloquent and good at management. Recently, he found a solid backer. There were rumors in the officialdom that after next year, he would be promoted to the prefect of Ruyang.
That day, Hou Jie, the poetry collector, led his servant Zhao Shouyi to Pixian County. Magistrate Zhang was hosting a banquet in the back hall to entertain him. Suddenly, he heard a loud bang outside, and Magistrate Zhang hurriedly stood up.
Cuo Houjie clasped his fists and said, "Shiguan Hou, don't stay with me anymore!".
Magistrate Zhang led the government officials to the court hall. When he looked at the entrance of the hall, he saw three common people wearing coarse cloth kneeling at the entrance.
These three people are all villagers of Hutou Village in this county. Hutou Village is a small village, with a total of only about 20 households. It is named Hutou Village because it is backed by the majestic Hutou Ridge.
.
When the leading villager Ding Laoer explained the situation, Magistrate Zhang almost became angry. It turned out that a robbery had occurred in Hutou Village. The thieves hid three slings of copper coins, a bag of mountain goods and half a dozen coins among the three of them in the beams of the house.
The jar of pickles was stolen.
Are those three robberies so small that they can’t even be picked up with chopsticks? Magistrate Zhang was impatient. He asked the three villagers to each fill out a loss form, and then he sent a few thieves around to catch the thieves.
.
Early the next morning, Hou Jie was about to say goodbye to Magistrate Zhang and then go to the east of the countryside to collect poems. He saw two arresters from Pixian County escorting a thief with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks into the county government office.
The thief's name was Tian Ermao, and he was the thief who stole the property of the people in Hutou Village. Tian Ermao was selling stolen mountain goods at the morning market before dawn tomorrow, and was caught by the two catchers.
Tian Ermao confessed that he had mistakenly stolen from Hutou Village. Magistrate Zhang beat Tian Ermao twenty times and ordered him to hand over ten taels of silver. The ten taels of silver were more than enough to compensate the villagers of Hutou Village for their losses.
Hou Jie didn't hear the name of Hutou Village that day. He turned to his personal follower Zhao Shouyi and said: "He wants to go to Hutou Village to collect Yidong poetry and folk songs!"
County Magistrate Zhang persuaded Hou Jie for a long time not to let him go to that place where rabbits don't poop, but Hou Jie went instead. Magistrate Zhang had no choice but to send two public servants to protect Hou Jie. Hou Jie
Riding donkeys, the four of them walked for half a day before arriving at the entrance of Hutou Village. Zhao Shouyi, who was leading the donkey, looked at the majestic mountains of Hutou Ridge behind Hutou Village and exclaimed: "Long
The tiger is sitting in the pan, the phoenix and the dragon are rising, good Feng Shui, good Feng Shui, but there is a problem in the direction of the ditch mouth at the head of the village! "
What does Zhao Shouyi mean? If the entrance of Hutou Village faces due south, the tombs of whose ancestors are buried there, and the descendants of that family, will definitely get the top prize in martial arts!"
Hou Jie knows the details of Zhao Shouyi very well. When he was in the capital, he worked as a Feng Shui master to fool people for several years.
Hutou Village is indeed extremely poor. There are more than 20 old thatched houses with leaks in all directions. The courtyard walls are all rickety and broken fences. There are occasionally chickens and dogs showing up in the street, but they are all wilted and lifeless.
Hou Jie walked around here and there, looking for folk songs and tunes. Could the villagers tell him that the poverty there was so great that people couldn't even afford food and clothing, so how could they have the leisure to sing any songs?
Hou Jie had no choice but to inquire all the way, and finally came to the home of Lao Lizheng in Hutou Village. Li Zheng in Hutou Village was an old man in his eighties. Not only did his hair and beard turn red, but his teeth were almost gone.
Although his family was extremely poor, he was holding an exquisite wine gourd on his legs. Ding Laoer, who lost the money, and the other two villagers who lost the mountain goods and pickles were describing the details of the theft to Lao Li.
.
Not long ago, Ding Laoer hid three coins in the straw on the roof of his house. After the coins were stolen, he will re-check the place where the money was hidden tomorrow. Can Ding Laoer stretch his legs to dig out the place where the money was hidden and try to catch it?
A handful of new thatch came out.
Hou Jie looked at the new house grass in Ding Laoer's lap, and he said in confusion: "Hey, how come there is new house grass on the old roof that was thatched ten years ago?
The second family lost a bag of pecans, which weighed more than 100 kilograms. The third family lost a half-tank of pickles, which was even more shocking, weighing more than 200 kilograms.
Tian Ermao is thin and weak, so he is not very strong. If he is asked to carry three hundred kilograms of things out of the village, not even anyone would believe him.
Hou Jie asked Lao Lizheng suspiciously: "You have lived in Hutou Village for many years. Have you noticed anything unusual in Tingtou Village recently?"
Lao Lizheng said: "Excuse me, it's very unusual!" Then a month ago, Magistrate Zhang was sympathetic to the poverty of the villagers in Hutou Village.
Went to Hutou Village. The wages for building the river embankment were ten copper coins and two kilograms of red rice per person per day. Such generous wages were simply a good thing for the villagers of Hutou Village.
More than 50 men, women, and children from Hutou Village rushed out to the village at once. At first, only Lao Li from Donghutou Village was left to guard the village. The villagers went there for exactly a month. When they came back, they found that many homes had been stolen.
.
Just as Lao Li finished speaking, he took the exquisite wine gourd on the bedside, took a sip of wine, and said, "Is the foreman who built the river embankment really a good official? He sent someone to bring him a gourd of good wine!"
..." Before Lao Li finished speaking, he fell drunk on the bed and started snoring loudly.
