Blue water, blue sky, and steep cliffs. Along the green water all the way to the north, a towering mountain peak appears in front of you. On the mountainside, there are several ancient buildings with an air of immortality, which are very eye-catching.
This place is Tianji Mountain that no one knows about, but it is widely spread in the world.
A stone tablet half a man's height stands on the only way to pass the ancient building. There are four poems engraved on the stone tablet.
Tianji Mountain, Tianji Stone.
In Tianji Stone, Tianji Pavilion.
I want to ask where the secret is hidden.
Your fingers are in the blue sky, don't expose them.
Tianji Pavilion has three pavilions and six rooms. The so-called three pavilions are the Tian Pavilion, the Earth Pavilion and the Human Pavilion. The six rooms are the east, south, west, north, upper and lower wing rooms.
At the end of the day, a woman in purple clothes with a white complexion knocked on the door of the upper wing holding a bamboo paper.
In the room, there is a bead curtain and jade pendant. In front of a desk, a handsome man in white is painting.
The woman in purple walked to the table, raised her hands and bowed: "Pavilion Master, the bamboo note from Fortune Escort Bureau has been returned."
Hearing this, the pen in the man's hand suddenly stopped, and after a moment he continued to draw: "Read."
"yes."
The woman in purple opened the bamboo paper and took out the note inside.
"First question, if you are a doctor, you are kidnapped by bandits one day to treat the bandit leader, and you diagnose that the bandit leader can only live for one month. At this time, the leader asks you how your condition is, how should you answer?
"
When the woman read this, she glanced at the answer and was slightly startled, and hesitated a little.
The man raised his head and looked at her: "What's wrong?"
"Back to the Pavilion Master, this answer seems to be nonsense."
"Just read it."
The woman nodded: "Answer: I will tell the bandit leader that he can live twenty-nine more days than me."
When he heard this answer, the man was slightly startled. It seemed a little unexpected. For a moment, the corner of his mouth raised: "Next question."
"Second question: If the person you love betrays you and leaves you, will you be sad?"
"Answer: If I say yes, will you feel better?"
The man raised his eyebrows and couldn't help laughing: "Interesting, interesting. Third question?"
The woman continued: "The third question: What would a dying person do before he dies?"
"Answer: Of course, I breathed my last breath..."
After the woman finished reading, the man put down the brush in his hand, raised his head and said, "Who answered these three questions?"
"Back to the Pavilion Master, although the letter is from Tu Youyou, the daughter of Tu Hong of the Fuyun Escort Bureau, there is someone else answering these three questions."
As the woman spoke, she took out a palm-sized folder from somewhere and handed it over.
The man took the folder, opened it and looked at it carefully. After a while, the smile on his face became even brighter.
"I didn't expect it to be him...interesting, interesting!"
The man stood up and waved his white shirt: "I've asked you these three questions. Send me a reply and I'll set off for Jincheng on a certain day."
Although the woman was a little surprised, she didn't ask why. She nodded and said, "Yes, I will make arrangements right away."
…
Li Qi yawned, stuffed a pumpkin seed into his mouth, and leaned leisurely on the chaise longue.
Life in ancient times was comfortable, but it was just too boring, right?
The same goes for that guy Tu Boshu. He promised to come and see him, but two days have passed and he just disappeared.
I originally thought about waiting for her to come over and teach her how to play cards...
Li Qi sat up from the chaise longue and played with the cards on the table, bored.
When she comes over, should I teach her how to hunt kittens and fish first? Or how to fight landlords?
Just as he was thinking, Xiao Man opened the door and walked in: "Master, someone is looking for you in the front yard."
"Who is it?" Li Qi was a little confused.
Isn't the front yard of Cuihong Building just a place to pick up guests? Who can find me?
"I don't know, I have to let you go."
"Male or female?"
"male."
Li Qi was a little confused, what was this man doing with him?
Is it possible that my boss also has to pick up customers?
Thinking of him, that place suddenly felt tight...
Damn it, this young master neither sells his art nor his body.
"Master, why are you still standing there? Hurry up." Xiaoman urged.
"Okay, okay, I understand."
Li Qi stood up and was about to leave but found that Xiao Man didn't seem to want to leave.
"What else are you doing?"
I saw this girl staring at the plates of dried fruit snacks on the table, her eyes sparkling.
Li Qi sighed: "Eat whatever you want, remember to leave some for me."
When he came out of the house, a cold wave made him shiver.
At this time, the backyard is still filled with silver catkins flying into the sky and the Qiong Yao land is covered in white.
Following the corridor, as soon as we reached the front yard, the madam appeared: "Master, you are finally here."
"Who is looking for me?"
The old bustard smiled and said: "I am a regular customer. I heard that Cuihong Building has a new owner and I want to come and visit."
"Customer, it doesn't hurt to meet you like this."
Li Qi followed the madam to a private room, opened the door and saw a middle-aged man wearing a scarf and a blue shirt.
Apparently, Mo was in his forties, with a goatee and a pair of triangular eyes covered with crow's feet.
"Li Dongjia, I have admired you for a long time! My surname is Jiang Shan, and my last name is Cai. I own a cloth shop in Jincheng."
"It turns out to be shopkeeper Jiang. I'm disrespectful."
Li Qi had a smile on his face and couldn't help but murmur in his heart that greetings from the ancients were troublesome.
"I heard that shopkeeper Jiang has always taken good care of Cuihonglou's business. Thank you very much."
"Where, where. Cuihonglou is one of the best places in Jincheng. I just came here because of its reputation."
After the two exchanged a few words, Jiang Caifei took Li Qi to sit down and have a drink.
Li Qi felt bitter in his heart, finally understanding how difficult it is to do nightclub marketing...
"Shopkeeper Jiang, come here on weekdays. Is there any girl you like?"
"I'm an old man and have long been disinterested in these things."
Believe it or not.
Who doesn't know that a man in his forties is full of energy and will be empty if he doesn't use it for three days?
One look at your face, it seems that you are not a good bird...
"In this case, we can only ask Shopkeeper Jiang to have a few more drinks."
"That's natural."
Jiang Cai picked up the wine pot and filled the two glasses of wine on the table.
He raised his glass and said, "I'd like to toast this glass to Mr. Li."
"Easy to say, please, Shopkeeper Jiang."
After clinking the glasses gently, Li Qi drank the wine in one gulp.
The alcohol content of alcohol in this era is not very high, just like drinking beer.
Although Li Qi's drinking capacity is not very good, there is no problem at all if he can drink ten or eight glasses of this kind of wine.
What he didn't expect was that before he was drunk, Jiang Cai fell on the table.
"Shopkeeper Jiang? Are you okay?"
Li Qi shook it and found that the old man had no reaction at all.
Damn it, your drinking capacity is worse than mine, why are you still asking me to drink?
At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly opened, and a tall man in green clothes with the word "capture" written on his chest rushed in.
"How dare you poison and kill someone in broad daylight! It's so vicious, and you can't even catch him without restraint!"
Li Qi didn't react. He looked at Jiang Cai, who was lying on the table, and then at the big man at the door.
