Shi Qian put on the equipment of the organization [Jue], hid the evil ghost mask on his body, put on ordinary casual clothes, and put it on again.
Shi Qian kept an address firmly in mind, and immediately walked quickly through the streets of Bianliang, Tokyo. Although it was close to the time to turn on the lanterns, the streets were still crowded and bustling, but even so, these were still not enough Fettered by Shi Qian's footsteps, in Shi Qian's mind, there was still a more important thing to do at this time, which was to contact the local Green Forest Army underground elements. Shi Qian quickly walked to a shabby teahouse on the edge of the city. , at this time, dim vegetable oil lamps have been lit in the teahouse. There are not many people in this teahouse, but it is very chaotic. Most of the people drinking tea here are vulgar people. A few copper coins Boil a pot of tea and meet up with a few friends to chat for an entire afternoon. Everyone has a loud voice and what they are talking about can be heard even if they are standing outside. The content of the conversation is all kinds of things. Short stories and random hearsay stuff can be used as a source of conversation for them after dinner. It is because of all the noise in this shabby teahouse that it naturally becomes the best place to connect in the green forest. place.
Although Shi Qian hated such a place, he still came in with a frown, sat down at an empty table in a corner of the second floor, called Dr. Tea over and asked for a pot of tea, and poured it into a tea bowl. Shi Qian was thirsty. , blew it and brought it to his mouth. It didn’t matter if he didn’t drink it. As soon as he drank it in his mouth, Shi Qian spit it out immediately. When the tea doctor took a look, he immediately turned back and said with a smile: "Hot drinks will burn your mouth. It's better to be careful. If you want to open a shop for free, there are small shops too."
Shi Qian didn't burn his mouth, but the tea was extremely bitter and unpleasant to drink. He glared at him and sent him away with a wave of his hand. Suddenly Shi Qian remembered something and took the man who had just turned around. The tea doctor who went away caught it and said, "Bring me eight more tea bowls."
When Dr. Tea heard this, he thought he had failed to listen in the chaos, so he bent down and said to Shi Qian's side: "What kind of tea would you like, sir?"
"Bring me eight more tea bowls," Shi Qian repeated.
When the tea doctor heard this, he smiled and said: "My guest, if you burn your mouth, it would be better for you to get some cold water to swish your mouth. You say, get eight more tea bowls, right?" Playing with the little ones,"
"Go ahead if I tell you. Where did such nonsense come from?" Shi Qian didn't want to make trouble with Dr. Tea and let others laugh. He suppressed his temper and took out nine copper coins from his body and arranged them. They lined up in a row and said, "Did you see it? One teacup and one copper plate. Isn't this just teasing you?"
When the tea doctor looked at it, his expression changed. He lowered his voice and said, "Sir, it's against the rules for one person to use nine bowls." There was something in the tea doctor's words.
Shi Qian glanced at Dr. Tea and said word for word: "I don't care where there is no place for me. I'm here today, so I have the rules."
Dr. Tea understood the meaning of Shi Qian's words, smiled charmingly, and said in Shi Qian's ear: "Master, please come in."
Now it was Shi Qian's turn to be a little surprised. Shi Qian then carefully looked at Dr. Tea in front of him. He had a square face, a rosy nose, smiling eyes, and a square scarf on his head. , with a rag on his shoulders, he was of medium height and slightly stout. Shi Qian didn't feel like he had seen him there before, but what he said just now seemed to have some background. Shi Qian was full of doubts. Asked in a low voice: "Are you,"
Dr. Tea smiled and said nothing, followed his suggestion, and turned around to take care of himself.
Shi Qian didn't hesitate at that moment. He got up with questions and followed the tea doctor. He came down to the first floor, passed through a white cloth curtain, passed the tea cooking room, went out through another door, and went to the backyard. This courtyard It's not clean either. The area as big as a palm can't accommodate two carriages, but there are stacks of straw that are ten feet high. The rest of the place is littered with all kinds of rags. Even people like Shi Qian who climb over the walls look at it. , all felt extremely uncomfortable, as if there was no place to put their feet up, it was such a dirty and messy place, but Dr. Cha took Shi Qian to a side room on the left, and Dr. Cha pushed open the dark room , lit a vegetable oil lamp, and in the dimness, Shi Qian could barely see clearly the furnishings in the room. In addition to a large pot, the pair of chairs where Dr. Tea invited him to sit, and another There were piles of weeds and nothing else. If it hadn't been for a roof with doors and windows, Shi Qian would have thought it was a pigsty and manger.
"Sir, please rest here for a while. I'll come back when I'm gone." Before Shi Qian could ask a question, Dr. Tea hurried out after saying that.
Shi Qian felt a little uneasy sitting alone in this room. He didn't know whether Dr. Tea was an enemy or a friend, so he walked to the door and carefully looked at the environment of the small courtyard. Shi Qian couldn't help but be a little surprised. There was no light on the window in the room, only a faint light and shadow cast from the open door. Shi Qian flashed back to the room and took a closer look at the window, and then he knew the clues inside. It turned out that this The windows in the room are unusual. They have three layers of paper. They look like ordinary white paper from the inside and outside, but there is a thin layer of wood sandwiched in the middle. It is because of this layer that the light in the room is dimmed. Cover everything. If the door is closed, it will be even less visible from the outside.
This kind of workmanship is obviously not the way of ordinary teahouses, and there must be some secret method involved. However, when he was originally sent out, Shi Jin did not say much about this teahouse. He only told him to come to this teahouse first to find a man named Jiu. The prince's man is the Lulin brother Zhang Qing recruited in Bianliang, Tokyo. He is capable and reliable. He controls Lulin's underground work for Zhang Qing in multiple capacities in the open. Shi Jin has never seen that person before. Naturally, there is no way to know the appearance of that person in the future, so there is no other way but to wait here for the Ninth Prince to come.
Only half a moment later, when Shi Qian was looking at the window paper, the tea doctor came back again and entered the room. He was holding a red copper teapot in his left and right hands. He looked very clumsy. The slender mouth of the teapot was placed on top of a stack of tea bowls, of different sizes, one inside another, standing steadily on top. As Dr. Tea walked along, he never dropped any of them. Shi Qian found it interesting to watch. , but saw that the tea doctor did not look back as soon as he entered the door, he jumped up, hooked up his legs and feet very deftly, under the dim light, Shi Qian did not understand clearly, but as soon as a wooden plug sounded, Shi Qian knew Just now, this man had bolted the door from the inside. Shi Qian could do this trick, but now Shi Qian saw that this man was not an ordinary tea doctor, he had some skills.
At this time, the tea doctor smiled and greeted Shi Qian, and he opened the tea bowl. The teapots in his hands were like two dragons, spitting out water through the long spout, and landed accurately on the tea bowl. Inside, the water in one was light red, while the other was light green. When the two came together, they suddenly became clear and transparent, and along with the steaming heat, a refreshing aroma emerged.
Compared with the tea just now, this tea is simply in the sky and on the earth. At the same time, the attentive Shi Qian did not just notice this. When the tea doctor poured the tea, Shi Qian saw another thing. That is why this tea doctor must be a strange person. How to put it this way, just because when the tea doctor pours tea with his left hand, he draws a circle clockwise, and when pouring tea with his right hand, he draws a square counterclockwise. The two are done separately. It is simple. , but standing five steps away, through such a teapot and pouring it into a small teacup at the same time, without any spillage, it is enough to see that this person's skill must be a person who can shoot left and right, and such a person People in the martial arts world often have their own unique strengths. If you use dual swords, it will be easier than ordinary people to get started. After you master it, you will be more powerful. This is because, for no other reason, this person The brain can be divided into two parts to control the left and right hands respectively. This is equivalent to bringing two people into one body, with two sets of thoughts, and can use two sets of sword techniques at the same time.
Although Shi Qian heard this in the world, Shi Qian still couldn't help but look at Dr. Tea with admiration.
"Come and try the craftsmanship," Dr. Tea said with a smile.
Shi Qian raised his eyes and glanced at the man. His clean smile made him look like a kind elder. Although Shi Qian smelled sweet, he did not relax his vigilance and asked in a low voice: "Do you know that I am Who dares to take me here?"
Dr. Tea glanced at Shi Qian and said with a smile: "We are all our own people, why can't I bring you here? I have to help you get rid of Kowloon before I can bring you here." After saying this, Dr. Tea smiled and continued : "I have already sent a message to Caiyuanzi. If it is convenient, I will get a reply later."
After Shi Qian heard this, his eyes tightened and he said, "Could it be that you are Jiu..."
"The Ninth Prince is me," Dr. Tea joked, "Didn't you expect that the Ninth Prince called Fugui is actually a tea seller, hahaha."
Shi Qian smiled and said: "It's really unexpected, but the more unexpected it is, the better the name is."
"No," Dr. Tea said: "Human, living in this world is not easy. In a big drama, you have to play many roles at the same time. You are a human being in the open and a ghost in the secret. There are so many roles, and they must have names. Isn't that right? , that’s it, others call me Tai Shuzhong, but in our gang, I’m called Jiu Wangye,”
Shi Qian smiled and then dared to taste the tea in the bowl. He sipped it lightly. It was sweet and refreshing, and the taste was indescribably beautiful.
