Chapter 154 Hat (Additional update for the leader of Xiaoluzhizhi)
Chu envoy Cui Ming's hobbies and shortcomings really left everyone speechless, but there were a hundred people of all kinds. For Master Dongsun, Ding Ran and Dong Da, it was nothing more than broadening their knowledge. What do people like?
I don't care, as long as he is happy and not thinking about mediocrity.
In order to satisfy Cui Ming's hobbies, he was allowed to stay in Cuilin Villa for as many days as possible. The three of them had to show up in the Villa from time to time, and even needed to "go home" occasionally. At this time, Cui Ming would always hold a banquet "at home"
, drinking and chatting with her husband's master Dong Bamboo and his seventh uncle Dong Da.
Ding Ran pretended to be a housekeeper and mingled with Cui Ming's servants to get to know the Chu envoy from the side.
Master Dongsun didn't have much affection for Ningxiang at first, but as the play progressed, he somehow took on the role. When I heard Cui Ming and Ningxiang having sex, I felt more or less jealous for some reason.
The old man couldn't stand this feeling and wanted to propose several times to marry Ningxiang to Cui Ming, but the proposal was blocked by Ding Ran. Ding Ran got the news from Cui's servant that once Ningxiang lost her husband,
Then to Cui Ming, she is no longer the lovable Ningxiang, so the play can only continue.
On this day, the old man couldn't stand it any more, so he came to ask Ding Ran: "How's it going with Shangyong? How many more days will my master Shen be needed?"
Ding Ran said: "Zhang Xiaokeng just came back from Shangyong at noon, and Alchemist Shen was still refining elixirs. However, he conveyed Alchemist Shen's words and said that there was no need to stop the Chu envoy anymore."
Master Dongzhan asked doubtfully: "Has the practice been completed or not?"
Ding Ran said: "Perhaps the refining is over, and we have stopped the Chu envoy for nine days...this hat from the shopkeeper?"
Master Dongsun pulled off the hat he had just put on, and said helplessly: "This envoy Chu is sick. He said that he knitted the hat with his own hands yesterday. He must give it to me. It's not okay if he doesn't wear it."
Ding Ran frowned, took the hat and examined it carefully. He didn't find anything mysterious. It was just an ordinary hat. Even the color was not surprising. He gave it back to Master Dongsun: "Since you let me wear it, the shopkeeper will wear it."
Just wait...waiting until spring and summer, and entering the forest, it may be useful to hide your whereabouts."
Two days later, Ningxiang received news privately that Cui Ming was going down the mountain. After serving Cui Ming for these days, even Master Dongsun was already exhausted. I have to say that Dong Da and Ding Ran were really honest. That's all.
The old man was really moved by the fact that he stayed with her seriously for ten days without complaining or complaining at all.
Just as everyone was celebrating, Ningxiang came back with a second piece of news: If Shen Douke hadn't come to test the elixir in person, Cui Ming could have stayed at Cuilin Villa for another five or six days.
The news that Master Dongsun received before was that only one Chu envoy came to inspect the tributes, and there was no Shen Douke. Why did Cui Ming say that he was coming again?
Master Dongsun did not dare to delay, so he rushed back to Shangyong overnight and told Wu Sheng: "Cui Ming said that Shen Douke wanted to come to Shangyong to personally inspect the tribute, so he will go down the mountain to the city tomorrow."
Wu Sheng thought: "It doesn't follow the rules of previous years..."
If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Since Shen Dou Ke came to test the elixir in person, there must be a reason. What on earth does he want to do?
"The Master has done a good job in this matter. He gave full play to his subjective initiative. Needless to say, I have to think of a solution in advance. I must give the Master a thumbs up." Wu Sheng gave a thumbs up.
Master Dongsun asked: "No matter what he comes to do, our tribute is well prepared and we won't let him find fault. Have you gathered the layman's elixir?"
Wu Sheng said: "A thousand black ginseng pills have been collected a long time ago. The remaining Jingning pills and Dahuang pills have also been delivered by various alchemists. I have tested them and there is no problem."
Master Dongsun was worried: "I heard from Zhang Xiaokeng that lay people are still refining elixirs these days?"
Wu Sheng said with a smile: "What I have been practicing these past few days is the problematic black ginseng pills sent by Zuo Bo, which makes the Master worried."
Master Dong Bamboo was surprised: "How to practice that? Is it useful?"
Wu Sheng was very sure: "It's useful, it's of great use!" This black ginseng pill, which has a greatly reduced aging effect, can provide the dark golden spiritual sand needed to build the air sea and starry sky. It is also relatively easy to refine, with low cost and time.
It's so fast. It's really of great use. Over two hundred of them have been refined in the past few days. Wu Sheng plans to continue to stock up and build a few more star clusters when the time comes.
"I've worked hard these days, Master. Let's take a rest." Wu Sheng comforted him.
Master Dongsun smiled proudly: "It's just troublesome for Dong Da and Ding Ran. They were delayed because of my business. Afterwards, I thought of giving a banquet to thank you."
Wu Sheng knew what he wanted to do. Anyway, he had earned more than a hundred gold this time. He was very rich, so he generously took out three gold and said, "Allocate it to them."
Master Dongsun said happily: "The envoy from Chu gave me five gold coins, and gave Dong Da two gold coins. With these three gold coins, I can handle this trip, otherwise I won't be able to face Dong Da and Ding Ran."
Wu Sheng asked curiously: "The envoy of Chu gave you so much money?"
Master Dongsun told the whole story, Wu Sheng was stunned for a moment: "Is this person named Cui Ming so rich?"
Master Dongsun said: "Ningxiang told me that Cui Ming is the third son of the Cui family of Linzi, a wealthy family in the Qi State. He fled to the Chu State for refuge. Even the Lord of Chu did not dare to take him in openly, so he went south to Yangzhou and sent it to his left disciple Shen Dou.
I am under the Ke family. Although my power is no longer there, my background is still there and I am rich."
Wu Sheng pondered for a moment, then took out two more gold coins and said, "Let Dong Da and Ding Ran be more generous. We can't be outdone by an exiled young master."
Master Dongsun happily left with Yuan Jin. Dong Da's group of brothers and Ding Ran's group of girls followed him and worked hard for nearly half a month. They couldn't let people suffer in vain. The eight gold on hand were enough to comfort them.
Everyone, there is still something left!
Wu Sheng rushed to the young master's residence and informed the young master Qingyu of the news as soon as possible. The young master Qingyu summoned Yuan Sima, and the three of them pondered together for a long time, but they could not figure out what Shen Douke wanted to do.
But no matter what, two thousand spiritual elixirs, eighty kilograms of spiritual materials, rice and other items are all ready. Shen Douke is not afraid of finding fault. At this moment, he can only be more vigilant and remain unchanged in response to any changes.
Wu Sheng didn't have that much energy to pay attention to this matter. The number of elixirs had been handed over and sent to Sikong Mansion. The transfer of the remaining Mao Gong was Dr. Yong Guoqing's business. It had nothing to do with him. He was immersed in refining it.
In just a few days, more than 200 more Wushen pills with reduced efficacy were accumulated, bringing the total to 500.
Just when he was planning to use up all the purchased spiritual materials and accumulate enough attenuated black ginseng pills to fill the air sea with stars, someone quietly appeared in front of his alchemy room.
"Master Shen, I am Cui Ming, the deputy envoy of the Chu State. I came to visit you rashly. Please forgive me, Master Shen!"
We solemnly celebrate the promotion of Xiaolu Tiezhi to the leader of the alliance on December 10th. The soul has the desire to drive the thunder envoy, the spirit is overflowing in the jade capital, the spirit will stay forever, and it has become an immortal. Three pillars of incense are burned to see off the Taoist friends.
