    Qinglong Temple is located in Xinchangfang, east of Xuanpingfang, not far from the Tan family's shop.  Ye Chang wore the clothes that Qin Qinshou had prepared for him, bowed three times in front of the coffin, and then slowly stepped back.  After him, Qin Qinshou also placed a stick of incense and made a bow.  Monk Shanzhi was reciting silently in front of the coffin. Ye Chang was a little doubtful whether he could recite a complete set of sutras.  "The weather is too hot and it's difficult to save the remains. I'll take them back after cremation." Ye Chang said to Tan Qinshou, "Brother Tan must also be troubled about the cremation." "No trouble, no trouble." Tan Qinshou said repeatedly.  Although cremating remains is not a tradition of the Tang Dynasty, it is a helpless move at this time.  Although Tan Qinshou and the monks in Qinglong Temple had taken measures, Ye Chang still smelled a faint stench.  Tan Qinshou admired Ye Chang even more at this time, and he impressed He Zhizhang and Zhang Xu right away. Moreover, when Ye Chang broke up with He and Zhang just now, he did not ask them to help him deal with the Princess Xianyi, but  Ask them to promote folding fans on their behalf - Ye Chang himself said that he was "received by Brother Tan and must repay it".  This made He Zhizhang and Zhang Xu sigh. Because of Xianyi's status as princess, they could not help Ye Chang fight with her after hearing a single word. However, it was easy to promote the folding fan.  "What other plans does Eleventh Lang have?" Qin Qinshou asked again.  "Plan?" Ye Chang narrowed his eyes slightly.  He didn¡¯t remember spending much time with Ye Shu, but this cowardly and ordinary man made him feel his brother¡¯s care.  Moreover, his sister-in-law treats him very sincerely, and his nephews and nieces are very close to him. Such family affection cannot be ignored.  He has always been like this. If others treat him with 70% sincerity, he will repay him with 10% sincerity. But if others treat him with 30% malice, then the response must be 50% hatred.  Therefore, although he promised He Zhizhang and Zhang Xu not to force themselves, it did not mean that he entered Chang'an this time, collected his brother's ashes and left.  There must be something left behind, such as ears, eyes and eyes to keep an eye on the Princess Xianyi's consort.  If there is a chance, Yang Fu, who directly caused Ye Shu's death, must deal with him. It is best to get rid of him. If he can't get rid of him, he must find a way to learn the truth about the conflict with Ye Shu from his mouth.  "Since I came to Chang'an, I am not in a hurry to go back. I have just written a letter. If Brother Qin is convenient, send someone to take me back to Xiuwu's home." Ye Chang said: "I am in Chang'an, and I will stay for half a year at most.  I think I will stay for three months." It is now early June, and he will stay for three months, that is, he will return after the autumn harvest.  Tan Qinshou said: "Chang'an Inn is extremely expensive. Shi Yilang might as well move to my place. I have a yard here, which is quite quiet."  "Ye Chang said with a smile: "Also, I have a plan to promote the folding fan I need to meet someone first." "Meet someone?" Tan Qinshou was a little surprised.  Ye Chang left the temple, arrived at the gate, and walked straight towards the corner.  Over there, two scoundrels were squatting and talking. When they saw Ye Chang approaching, they both looked up at him.  Ye Chang said to one of them: "If you'd like, go and invite Xiao Wulang. I want to see him." "If you say please, please do it. Who do you think you are?" The scoundrel raised his head and said disdainfully.  Ye Chang stared at him: "Then, open the door and let the monk go!" As he said this, he stepped aside, and then he saw Shan Zhi rushing over with his teeth and claws bared, grabbing the two scoundrels and throwing them out.  : "If you don't go after the toast and the fine wine, is it because you want to be beaten?" As the saying goes, evil people will have their own troubles. These two scoundrels did not take Ye Chang in their eyes, but they were very convinced of Shan Zhi. After all, Shan Zhi was good.  But one of them knocked down seven or eight of them in the alley.  The two jumped up and looked at each other. One of them turned around and ran away, while the other stayed far away, still staring here.  Ye Chang turned to the two Hu men on the other side. The two Hu men stared at him with fierce eyes and did not give in at all.  Ye Chang didn¡¯t understand why these barbarians were staring at him. He had to do something, and it was inconvenient to be stared at. He had to find a way to drive these barbarians away.  Thinking of this, he slowly walked towards the Hu man.  The barbarian man began to hold the knife at his waist.  "Ye Langjun!" Shanzhi came over at this time and blocked him behind him.  Unlike those ruffians who had no intention of killing, these two barbarians clearly had the intention of killing Ye Chang!  Ye Chang also felt this. He would not risk his own life to verify this guess, so he took two steps back: "Go back to the temple." "Who are these people?" Tan Qinshou, who followed out, saw this scene and asked  road.  "Some troubles caused." Ye Chang briefly explained what happened.Repeatedly: "It's understandable that that gang of scoundrels would cause trouble for me, but these barbarians keep staring at me and provoking me, which is really confusing - Brother Qin, can you check their details?" "  Well, I'll ask someone to inquire." Tan Qinshou was speechless. Ye Chang had only been in Chang'an for a day, and he was already busy with things. Thinking of Ye Chang's experience in practicing martial arts in his hometown, he even wondered whether this person had gone somewhere to hate him.  Wherever you are attracted.  Ye Chang was also aggrieved. He didn't know that there would be so many things, such as this group of barbarians and the Princess Xianyi. In his opinion, they had nothing to do with him. In the end, it was not a disaster that fell from the sky.  Not long after, Xiao Bailang appeared outside Qinglong Temple.  Ye Chang called his name. If he didn't come, he would have lost his momentum. A scoundrel like him would come no matter what if he loses more than others.  However, he brought more than 20 people, and this time he felt a little more courageous. Seeing Ye Chang, he said impatiently: "Why are you calling me?" "Monk, you can beat more than 20 people.  Have you passed?" Ye Chang asked Shanzhi.  "If we were in a military formation, I wouldn't be able to defeat more than 20 people, but if I were to strike hard, I could kill them all in a cup of tea." The monk told the truth.  Knowing that the monk was forthright, Ye Chang asked him this question, and then said: "This chicken and tile dog dares to call themselves master in front of you. What do you think we should do?" Xiao Bailang suddenly panicked, but in front of you  There were so many people, and it was difficult for him to shrink back. Some of them were not afraid of death because they had never been beaten before, so they immediately started to curse angrily.  The monk frowned and thought deeply. After a while, He Shi said: "Master once said that the benefactor is the master. It is not a big deal for this Xiao donor to call him master in front of the monk." "Ah pig teammate?" Among the rogues  In the midst of laughter, Ye Chang could only scold the monk in his heart.  His plan is to overwhelm these scoundrels in Chang'an City. They are local snakes. With them, it will be convenient to find out information and so on.  But now he has no power or wealth, so he can only rely on the monk's force to overwhelm them. Now that the monk is not cooperating well, he has no choice but to find another way.  "Xiao Wulang, I think you are good at cockfighting and a gambler, right?" Ye Chang asked.  "So what?" "Today I will make a bet with you. If I lose, everything is up to you. You can just ask me and the monk to go shirtless and apologize to you. But if I win, other things will not matter.  Don¡¯t talk about it, how about we write off all the previous festivals?¡± Xiao Bailang looked at Ye Chang, and his heart was spinning: If there is a fight, the monk¡¯s force is indeed unmatched by them, and this person proposed to use a bet.  You can listen to the suggestions to resolve the grievances.  If you win, it will be easy to say. If you lose, then we will discuss it later whether you admit it or not.  "I won't take advantage of you. If you win, my brothers and I will let you do it." He said loudly: "But what kind of gambling? Dice or cockfighting?" "It's easy to cheat in dice and cockfighting.  , even if the outcome is decided, it is easy to have disputes. How about this, which of your brothers have Kaiyuan Tongbao on them?" At Xiao Bailang's signal, those scoundrels took out their money one by one. You three?  I had five pieces, so I managed to get a handful together.  Ye Chang took the money, a total of twenty-one. Ye Chang weighed it in his hands, and then spread the money on the ground.  Twenty-one coins were scattered.  "What, comparing words?" Xiao Bailang stared at him and said.  "No, look, these twenty-one pieces of money were all taken out by your brothers. You counted them, right? Let's see who is more capable. It's very simple. The two of us take turns to take from the money.  You can withdraw one to three pieces of money at a time, and whoever gets the last piece of money loses - what do you think? "Xiao Bailang heard this gambling method, which was novel, and he rolled his eyes: "Who takes it first?  I set the rules, so naturally you take them first," Ye Chang said.  Xiao Bailang looked at the twenty-one coins on the ground and did not rush to get them. He asked the rules again, then frowned and thought hard.  After thinking about it for a while, I still didn't understand the key. The kid in front of me was so confident. How could he be so confident? ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????]  "I took it first." He first took three copper coins, but after thinking about it, he returned two more and only took one: "One!" With twenty coins left, Ye Chang smiled, stretched out his hand casually, and took one.  I took away three of them.  Xiao Bailang thought about it for a long time, and then took away three coins, so that in front of the two of them, there were still fourteen coins left.  Ye Chang only took out one this time. Xiao Bailang calculated in his mind that there were still thirteen pieces left. He felt that there seemed to be some confusion.Yes, I still followed Ye Chang and took another one.  Twelve copper coins, Ye Chang took three more coins, Xiao Bailang also followed with three coins, and Ye Chang took another one, so that there were only five coins left in front of the two of them.  Seeing this situation, Xiao Bailang was stunned and began to calculate quickly in his mind.  If he takes another one, if there are four remaining, Ye Chang will definitely take three, leaving the last one for him.  And he takes two, and Ye Chang also takes two, leaving the last one for him. If he takes three, Ye Chang only takes one In short, no matter how many he takes, the last one is his.  of!  He stared at the copper coins on the ground and thought, how could he lose?  Not only did he see the outcome, but some of the scoundrels also saw it. Someone suddenly shouted: "It doesn't count, it doesn't count, Fifth Brother is not familiar with the rules yet, this doesn't count!" Ye Chang said happily: "No.  Forget it, let¡¯s do it again!¡± Xiao Bailang¡¯s interest in this gambling method at this time even exceeded his hatred of Ye Chang. He was quite smart and felt that there seemed to be some kind of mystery behind this gambling method. If he could figure it out,  Understand, if he just uses this gambling method to gamble against others, he can win no matter how much money he has!  In addition, Ye Chang was so generous and allowed him to come back, of course he was happy to accompany him, and immediately said: "You go first this time, I won't take advantage of you!" Ye Chang smiled happily: "It's a good thing not to take advantage!" Xiao Bailang's old face  She was slightly red, but her eyes were fixed on Ye Chang's hand, and she saw Ye Chang randomly taking out two coins from the twenty-one coins.  Xiao Bailang thought for a while, and then took out two of them. He made up his mind that he would do the same thing as Ye Chang did.  Ye Chang smiled and took three coins. Xiao Bailang followed suit and took three coins. In this way, there were only eleven copper coins left in front of the two of them.  Ye Chang took two more coins, leaving nine coins. Xiao Bailang also grabbed two coins in his hand. He calculated in his mind that with seven coins left, Ye Chang only needed to take two more coins, and then he would be limited to five more coins.  in the dead festival.  He felt anxious, stretched out his hand and grabbed another one.  Ye Chang also took another one, and there were still five in front of Xiao Bailang.  No matter how many pieces Xiao Bailang takes next, the last one will fall into his hands.  "Thisthis" "Xiao Wulang, do you want to come again? Should you take it first this time?" Ye Changxiao asked.  "Come on! Regardless of victory or defeat, our old grievances will be settled once and for all!" Xiao Bailang shouted.  The result was that Xiao Bailang lost again. Even if he took two coins according to Ye Chang's previous pattern, he ended up worrying about five copper coins.  Ye Chang suggested that he add more copper coins, and the two continued, nine times in a row, and Xiao Bailang always lost heavily.  No matter how thick-skinned Xiao Bailang was, he couldn't continue at this time. He stood up and felt that there were still countless coins floating around in his mind.  Xiao Bailang bowed his hand to Ye Chang, and turned around to leave. Ye Chang said slowly from behind: "Xiao Wulang, do you still remember what I said yesterday? There are many interesting games in my heart. Compared with cockfighting and dogfighting,  It's not worth mentioning at all. I think you are a straightforward man, and we don't know each other. If you are interested, you might as well come to see me again." Xiao Bailang turned around and left with no expression on his face.  Ye Chang looked at his back with a smile. The gangsters came up to him and asked in a low voice, "Just do it like this." Xiao Bailang just waved his hands, and then left with everyone.  Ye Chang still didn't speak. When he turned around, he found that the monk was grabbing a handful of stones, talking about the doorway one by one from the left and the right. Ye Chang thought that he had been holding back just now, so he couldn't help but go over and kick him.  : "Monk, you will never be able to figure out the secret here in your life!" "Why?" "Gong Zhang can understand calligraphy by watching Aunt Gongsun's sword dance, and the children of the Jia family can learn calligraphy by fighting cocks.  It is forbidden to enter and leave the palace. Everyone has his own chance. If you don't take the chance, you will miss the chance. Monk, you don't have this opportunity." When he said this, Xiao Bailang's body became agitated.  Tremble and turn around.
