Not long after Yan Shouyi and Long Feicheng entered the "Dan" private room, two Taoist priests wearing yellow robes and black hats strode into the West Lake Yaju.
The two of them were led by a well-known broker from Rongcheng, that is, a guy who specializes in acting as a middleman and using connections to make money.
This broker has a certain degree of influence in Rongcheng, has contacts with many top figures in the industry, and is also a frequent visitor to Xihu Yaju.
Manager Wu had just arranged tea for Yan Shouyi. When he came out, he met the broker and greeted him warmly:
"Hey, old acquaintance, are you here to drink tea and enjoy the beautiful scenery of West Lake again?"
The broker leaned back and seemed to deliberately highlight the status of the two yellow-robed Taoist priests. He smiled and said:
"Today we are not admiring the scenery, we are just entertaining guests. These two masters are the masters. This afternoon they will rest at your West Lake Residence and entertain some guests. Just free up the Danzi private room for them.
"
Manager Wu groaned: "What a coincidence, the Danzi private room has just been used by our owner of West Lake. How about I arrange a Yazi private room for you? The Yazi private room can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of West Lake, and faces Wu
The mountains and the view are also excellent.”
The broker used to go to Danzi Private Room, and today it was occupied by someone else. He was a little unhappy, but when he heard that the person occupying it was the owner of West Lake, he had nothing to say.
But in order to show his connections in front of the two Taoist priests, the broker said:
"Mr. Li Peizhong from the Li family is here too? I wonder if it's convenient for him. I'll go visit him later and get some tea."
Unexpectedly, Manager Wu said with a smile: "You don't know something. Our West Lake just changed owners a few days ago. Now the surname of West Lake is not Li, but Yan."
"ah?"
The broker was stunned for a moment, then looked embarrassed.
He made a living by selling information. As a result, he didn't even know about such a big thing as the change of ownership of West Lake. He was very embarrassed in front of the two Taoist priests.
It's like you go to the battlefield with a gun, but you don't know that the war has ended long ago.
The unwilling broker asked: "Which Yan family? Why haven't I heard of such a powerful family in Rongcheng?"
"Don't ask about it. How can a family that can snatch the West Lake from the Li family be just an ordinary person?" Manager Wu said with pride, "But I can tell you a piece of news in private. I still remember that the West Lake was shut down not long ago.
What happened? That was done by our young master of the Yan family!"
The broker was shocked: "How did he do it? Did he block the water upstream or dig a dike downstream? This is wrong! The water in the West Lake dried up in the blink of an eye. Even if the underground river was dug, it would not
Will it disappear so soon?"
"Stop it, stop it!" Manager Wu laughed, "That's all I can say."
In fact, Manager Wu also had some elements of showing off in his words. The Li family was already powerful enough in the past, but now the Yan family is more arrogant than the Li family. Even if he is just a dog of the Yan family, he will suffer both prosperity and loss. At this time
Can't you be proud?
The broker couldn't help but click his tongue. He became more and more curious about the sudden appearance of the Yan family, and made up his mind to know more about it.
The two Taoist priests standing behind the broker, who had never spoken before, seemed to be unable to bear it anymore. One of the Taoist priests asked:
"The Yan family you are talking about...are not locals, right?"
Only then did Manager Wu remember to look at the visitor.
Two Taoist priests, one tall and one short, both looked to be at least forty years old. They both had some scattered stubble on their chins and their hair was messy. Judging from their tired appearance, they seemed to have just arrived in Rongcheng not long ago.
They are all on their way.
The tall Taoist priest had a vertical and horizontal scar on his face, which looked a bit shocking. It was hard to imagine how heavy the injury was to leave such a terrifying scar.
The short Taoist priest was ordinary in appearance and had no special features. He just carried a sword box on his back.
Manager Wu immediately understood why they were so busy. It was probably because they were carrying controlled knives and could not pass the security check at high-speed rail stations and airports...
After analyzing the identities of the two Taoist priests for a moment, Manager Wu answered without missing a beat:
"The Yan family is very mysterious. Even I have only met the young master twice, and I have never met the head of the Yan family, so I don't know if they are locals."
The Taoist priest wanted to inquire about some information, but the broker interrupted them:
"Two masters, let's go upstairs quickly. The big bosses will be here soon, and it's time for us to open."
The Taoist priest frowned, could only nod, and went upstairs under the leadership of the deputy manager.
However, when passing by the Danzi private room on the third floor, the two Taoist priests still stared at the door in unison, as if they wanted to see what was inside through the door.
After sitting in the private room, the two Taoist priests couldn't help but sigh when they saw the beautiful scenery of Rongcheng West Lake:
"The Yuhang West Lake is the best in the world, and the Rongcheng West Lake is not bad either. I wonder what the background of the Yan family is, but it is really enviable to be able to sit on the West Lake."
The broker flattered him and said, "You two are being humble. The Yan family only has a small lake. What you two have is Kunxu Mountain! How can a lake be compared with a mountain?"
The two Taoist priests shook their heads and smiled. The broker was just an ordinary person. How could he see the power of Rongcheng West Lake?
It is not only a lake in the city, but also the gathering place of Rongcheng’s Feng Shui. Whoever owns the West Lake is equivalent to owning the luck of Rongcheng!
All the people in Rongcheng are related to the luck of West Lake in Rongcheng. As long as the people are still there, the luck of West Lake will not be cut off, and the owner of West Lake will be able to endure for a long time.
And in Kunxu Mountain, where their Shengxian Temple is located, you can't even see a fart within a hundred miles, so how can you have any luck?
It's just a bump on the mountain that other sects look down upon.
Therefore, the two Taoist priests were truly envious of the Yan family who owned the West Lake.
As soon as the broker finished flattering him, he received a call. He nodded and bowed for a while, hung up the phone and said:
"Two masters, wait a moment. The two bosses who came to see you for fortune calculation are already outside. I will go and welcome them in."
Taoist Gao nodded and said: "We are new to Rongcheng and are not familiar with the place. Thanks to you being the middleman, we will share with you 30% of the fortune-telling proceeds."
The broker was overjoyed when he heard this: "Then I'll thank the two masters first!"
After saying that, the broker went downstairs to greet the boss with his bag under his arm.
After the broker left, the two Taoist priests looked at each other and couldn't help but look in the direction of Danzi private room.
"Senior brother, have you sensed it too?" the short Taoist priest said in a deep voice.
Taoist priest Gao nodded slightly: "A touch of corpse aura, a touch of evil aura, a touch of sandalwood, and... a strong sense of athlete's foot."
The short Taoist priest frowned and said:
"The Yan family that owns the West Lake does not look like an ordinary person. Could it be that they are folk corpse chasers? But what is this sandalwood about? Don't these folk short method sects all have five shortcomings and three shortcomings?
They dare to occupy the Feng Shui of West Lake, are they risking their lives?"
The short Taoist priest's face was full of doubts. The tall Taoist priest blew his nose and said:
"It's better to stop sniffing. The athlete's foot next door is too irritating! If you want to know the true identity of the young master of the Yan family, why don't we go and meet him later?"
The short Taoist priest rubbed his eyes, hesitated, and said:
"Senior brother, do you think the Yan family is..."
"You mean the descendants of Lu Ban from Yan Baixiang's lineage?"
"After all, the surname Yan is not a common surname. Maybe we will meet our enemies?" said the short Taoist priest.
Taoist Gao touched his chin: "Yan Qiu's knife almost killed me back then. After I recovered from the injury, he retired to the world and disappeared. I have been looking for him for more than ten years, just to avenge the bloodshed that year.
Hate, if we really meet him in Rongcheng... I will definitely take his life!"
The short Taoist priest nodded: "In a moment we will go meet the young master of the Yan family next door!"
…
Yan Shouyi had no idea that two Taoist priests from Shengxian Temple in Kunxu Mountain were in the private room next to him.
And these two Taoist priests are still his father's life and death enemies.
While they travel around the world to help rich people tell fortunes and accumulate wealth, they also search for information about their enemies, just to avenge them.
At this moment, Yan Shouyi was still holding Li Qing'er's Shou Xinyu and pondering it carefully.
"No matter how you look at it, this thing is just an ordinary piece of jade!" Yan Shouyi looked puzzled.
Long Feicheng on the side glanced at it, and his expression suddenly changed:
"Brother Yan, this...could this be..."
Yan Shouyi said in surprise: "Do you know this jade?"
"Of course I know you!" Long Feicheng nodded excitedly.
Yan Shouyi was very surprised and asked hurriedly: "Then tell me what's different about this jade?"
Long Feicheng said seriously: "The difference with this piece of jade is... it is extremely expensive!"
"..."
"Based on my many years of experience, this piece of jade has a full and warm color, a natural shape, and a lot of water. It must be the best mutton-fat jade. In short, it is expensive! It is valuable!"
Long Feicheng smiled and said, "How about you give me this piece of jade and I'll sell it on the black market. Then we'll have the capital to make a fortune!"
"screw you!"
Fortunately, Yan Shouyi was sitting. If he were standing, he would definitely give Long Feicheng a kick.
He thought Long Feicheng knew the magic of this heart-guarding jade!
Yan Shou said: "This Heart-Shou Jade was given to me by Li Qing'er. Back then, my father took advantage of your master. Your master used huge sacrifices to point out a way for me to survive. Now it seems that the clues to that way of survival are here."
Inside the block of heart-protecting jade.”
The clue to this heart-guarding jade actually connected with Long Feicheng, and Long Feicheng immediately became serious.
He looked at this piece of jade, and now he felt that there was nothing different about it. But when he thought that this ordinary piece of heart-guarding jade had made his master miserable in his later years, Long Feicheng felt that it was very worthless.
If this piece of jade hadn't saved Yan Shouyi's life, Long Feicheng would have smashed it to him right now!
Yan Shouyi couldn't find any clues, so he could only release Sanyuan: "Sanyuan, look at it, what's different about this jade?"
Sanyuan jumped up and down and came to the Shouxin Jade on the table. Then he lowered his head and pressed his big black eyes against the center of the Shouxin Jade.
When Yan Shou saw this, he immediately realized something and quickly picked up the Shou Xin Jade and placed it in front of his eyes.
He closed one eye and looked through the Shou Xin Jade with the other eye...
