Although Yuhang is not far away from Xingxing and is under the jurisdiction of Lin'an Prefecture, it can be regarded as the foothold of the emperor. However, according to the traffic conditions in ancient times and the lack of horses in the Southern Song Dynasty, it may take several days to go back and forth.
In this case, you might as well say hello to the two senior brothers and casually discuss this ruby glazed ball. After all, these two Taoist priests have extraordinary knowledge.
In the private room of the "King of Wines" restaurant, Chen Nan was still pouring wine, while Wang Wenqing was just drinking tea.
"Red treasure and glazed ball? I have never heard of this treasure." Wang Wenqing said thoughtfully.
"I have never heard of it, but if there is such a treasure, I am afraid that it is not something that ordinary people can possess. A common man is not guilty and is guilty of having a jade. Although the Yuhang County Magistrate is an official, in the Lin'an area, this
Is he still considered an official?" Chen Nan said while drinking.
He poured wine into his mouth, but it didn't stop him from speaking.
"That's right. Even if a rich family in Yuhang has this treasure, I'm afraid it has an extraordinary origin. If there is such a rare treasure, I'm afraid the owner has some magical means to possess it." Wang Wenqing said thoughtfully.
Feng Zhou nodded.
In fact, it's not just magic treasures. Even money, martial arts secrets and other things, aren't there people fighting hard for them?
You kill me, I kill you, using all kinds of high-sounding reasons to engage in dirty and obscene acts.
"Actually, I'm just taking a look at the treasures and the like with Lord Zhou. Lin'an is in the business, and some of them are high-ranking officials. The Yuhang County magistrate is so grandiose that he must have other plans." Feng Zhou thought of this and smiled slightly.
Chen Nan and Wang Wenqing nodded repeatedly.
They have seen through life, so although they are leaders of Taoist sects, they have never possessed any magic weapons. This is not because they cannot, but because there are too many gods and demons. Once virtue is not matched, they may be taken away by others, and it will be a joke.
Already.
The real magic weapon is always the faith rooted in the hearts of believers. With them, the Jindan Sect and the Shenxiao Sect can gain a foothold in the world, and their thunder methods can become increasingly powerful.
Besides, what kind of magic weapon is a ruby glass ball that can cure diseases and save lives?
"Junior brother, your magic power has surpassed that of Daozhang Chen and I. We have no more skills to teach you. After drinking today, I'm afraid we will be far apart." Wang Wenqing said calmly.
"What?" Feng Zhou was shocked and couldn't help but look at Wang Wenqing and then at Chen Nan.
Chen Nan also put down the flask and sighed: "Master Wang is right, I have been with you for a year, but I am afraid that if our faction is in trouble in the future, Junior Brother Feng can help you for the sake of love."
.”
"But junior brother doesn't take good care of you? Why don't the two senior brothers move the Taoist temple to Xingzai? I will definitely build a Taoist temple for each of you, which will exceed the Taiyi Palace and Yanxiang Temple." Feng Zhou said hurriedly.
He is serious.
After all, in the past year, the two Taoist priests were both teachers and friends. They carefully pointed out his doubts in Taoist classics and systematically taught Taoist magic, especially the thunder method. They were taught with great care.
The human heart is made of flesh.
Although Feng Zhou is slightly alienated from this world, his respect and gratitude for the two of them come from the bottom of his heart.
"There is no banquet in the world that never ends, but this poor man has lived in seclusion in his hometown for decades, just wanting to bury his bones in his family home." Wang Wenqing sighed.
"When people gather and disperse, there are always separations and unions, and heaven and earth last forever. The reason why heaven and earth can last forever is because they do not generate themselves, so they can be born. This is because the saint comes after his body and comes first; outside his body, his body exists. It is not because of his selfishness.
?So it can be done privately. Junior brother does not need to beg for a long time." Chen Nan also said in a melancholy tone.
Feng Zhou sighed: "Junior brother is confused. I drank all night today to see off the two senior brothers."
…
There was no conversation all night. Early the next morning, Feng Zhou had breakfast at home, and then County Master Zhou and Li Gongfu rushed over.
"Zhenren Feng must be ready, how about we set off now!"
"The guest follows the host as he pleases, and the poor Taoist obeys the arrangements of the county magistrate."
Zhou Xianzun had already prepared. Two oil-walled carts were parked at the door. The carts were pulled by mules with good footwork. There were more than a dozen men surrounding them. Most of them were servants of the county magistrate's family, and the rest were government servants.
Good players, led by Li Gongfu.
But there is strength in numbers.
The Song Dynasty fell, and Zhao Gou rebuilt the Southern Song Dynasty. However, he emphasized culture over military affairs and levied heavy taxes on the people. Therefore, there were so many bandits and bandits in the territory, and bandits appeared at every turn. Although they did not become a phenomenon, they were very detrimental to local public security.
Influence.
Some people are so large that even local officials dare to rob and kill them, which is simply lawless. This makes the officials frightened.
But the method they adopted was not to send troops to encircle and suppress the people, but to bring enough good guards with them when traveling, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.
It's not that they don't want to encircle and suppress the thieves, it's because those thieves are actually local clan forces. They come as robbers with swords in their hands. They put down their swords and farm on the fields. The officers and soldiers can't tell who are the civilians and who are the bandits.
Feng Zhou got into an oil-walled car, while Magistrate Zhou and his wife Ru were sitting in the other car. Feng Zhou hardly had to do anything, and he could hear the flirting in the car next door.
.
He is indeed a scholar, which is called elegance.
Along the way, we were filled with the graceful and graceful scenery of Jiangnan. From morning to noon, we randomly found a tea shed on the roadside to sit down. Li Gongfu and his guards greeted the tea shed owner to serve food, and then they didn’t care whether the food was good or not.
It was crude, and all the food was wiped out in a short while.
Feng Zhou didn't have to do this, because Zhou Xianzun had already prepared the food box and sent someone to deliver it to Feng Zhenren's car.
The outside of the food box is very clean and the paint is shiny. It has four layers in total. The bottom of the food box is made of iron, with a built-in charcoal fire and a water-proof layer on top. Therefore, the food in the box is still hot after being left there for so long.
This scholar is so elegant. In addition, this is a place in the south of the Yangtze River, and food is exquisite. There are not many dishes in the box, probably only enough for a few bites, but there are many varieties, including a plate of Dongpo Pork and a plate.
Dongting shrimps, in addition to sweet-scented osmanthus and taro, fried spring rolls, fried gold bricks, soup dumplings, braised duck, and fried eels, all show the beauty, elegance, refinement and skill of Suzhou and Hangzhou.
Even though Feng Zhou was a Taoist, his appetite increased greatly after seeing it.
While he was savoring it carefully, his ears suddenly moved and he heard someone chatting in another tea shed dozens of feet away.
"Have you heard? The Yuhang County Magistrate's mother was seriously ill. The Xing family, a large family in the county, lent him a treasure, called the Dongnaidong Ruby Ball, which cured his mother's illness all at once."
"Of course I've heard about such a big thing. I heard that no matter how serious the illness is, it doesn't matter what the name is..."
"It's a cave within a cave."
"I know that if you put the hole-in-the-hole ruby glazed ball on the bedside, it will automatically shine brightly, and the patient will be cured instantly."
"Is this Xing family stupid? If you dare to take out such a valuable treasure, you are not afraid of borrowing it but not paying it back. Don't you know that it is a crime to have a jade?"
"Young people are really ignorant. This Xing family is not a simple family. I am a member of Liangzhe East Road. Someone in my family is a high-ranking official in the court. My family has vast hectares of fertile land. Are you afraid of a small county magistrate?"
"That's what I said, but with such wealth exposed, wouldn't it be targeted by various forces? No matter how powerful their family is, if they have such a precious magic weapon, they dare to show it off without hiding it, I'm afraid they won't
Is it okay?"
"Hehe, don't you know something? The Xing family doesn't intend to have this baby anymore."
"What? Don't you want it anymore?"
"You don't want to have such a powerful treasure?"
