Looking at Qingzhou City from a distance, it looks like a creeping giant, with countless mortal karma rising into the sky, and the noisy sound coming towards our face.
Looking at the huge city, Chen Jiu felt like a living creature. This was a huge city with life and a sound machine.
"Sir, we have arrived at Qingzhou Mansion." The big man driving the carriage jumped off the carriageway.
Li Hui opened the car curtain and looked at the people coming and going. The familiar breath came to his face: "Finally we are back."
Looking at Chen Jiu's obsessed eyes, Li Hui smiled softly and interrupted Chen Jiu's thoughts: "Let's say goodbye here. I hope to meet at Qingyang Academy in the future."
Chen Jiu nodded: "Congratulations, sir."
Watching Li Hui's car slowly drive into the city, Chen Jiu Shi followed up calmly. To be honest, although the journey was tiring, Chen Jiu's spirit was still high. He was dressed in clothes that looked valuable and luxurious purple. He was so angry that the gray-headed donkey had lowered Chen Jiu's image a lot.
The soldiers guarding the city did not dare to embarrass Chen Jiu. After being a soldier for such a long time and watching countless people coming and going, he still had some discernment.
Walking on Qingzhoufu Avenue, Chen Jiu's eyes rolled slightly: "Now I need to find a restaurant to stay in, and then settle down."
"Xuri Restaurant, that's strange. It's obviously an excellent location, how come there are no customers?" Looking at the restaurant in front of him, Chen Jiu was filled with doubts.
He walked over slowly, tied the donkey to the stake, and held the parcel in his hand: "Store, why is there no one there?"
"Come on, come on, Master, please come in." A little boy who looked seven or eight years old ran over, nodded and bowed.
Looking at this little boy, Chen Jiu wanted to laugh a little. This little boy was really cute, with two sideburns tied on his head, a rosy face, and bright eyes. He was very cute.
"Could it be that you are the waiter in this restaurant?"
"Hey, you are right," the boy said, grabbing Chen Jiu's package with his hand.
Chen Jiu gently turned to one side and passed the boy's hand: "You don't have to take it, and you can't take it either."
The two people walked slowly inside, and the boy shouted: "Shopkeeper, we have a guest."
An old voice came from inside: "What are you kidding about? How come there are guests coming to my restaurant? You are teasing me, be careful I will slap you."
"I didn't lie to you, I really have guests."
This time there was no rebuttal, but there was a sound of footsteps, and Chen Jiu asked doubtfully: "Why are there so few customers in your restaurant?".
The boy hesitated and said under Chen Jiu's glaring gaze: "Our restaurant is in trouble, and the customers don't dare to come."
Chen Jiu frowned: "How is it possible? How can there be evil spirits coming to cause trouble in broad daylight? Besides, Qingyang Academy is in the state capital. What evil spirits dare to cause trouble here?"
The little boy wiped the chair next to Chen Jiu, asked Chen Jiu to sit down, and then leaned into Chen Jiu's ear and said: "Our master accidentally broke the statue of the judge, and then the judge became very angry. Every day there are monsters and monsters coming to make trouble, and the monks or Confucian scholars cannot interfere with the affairs of the underworld, so things remain in a stalemate."
Chen Jiu looked at the little boy with a look of disbelief: "The judge can't be so stingy, right? It's just a statue. Just break it and build another one."
The little boy's face turned red: "The most important thing is that I don't know who accidentally stained the statue with dog blood. The judge was immediately furious. Although the judge didn't say anything about revenge, those people below were trying to figure out the judge. The master's wishes naturally came to vent his anger on the judge."
Chen Jiu was immediately furious and slammed the table: "How dare Yin Sian be so rampant? How dare you directly interfere in human affairs and deceive no one in our human race?"
The little boy hurriedly pulled Chen Jiu's sleeve: "Be careful what you say, be careful what you say, otherwise something big will happen."
Chen Jiu smiled disdainfully: "You're just a brat, what can An do to me?"
?? Child Nono, at this time the old man with a 66-year-old face came up and slapped the child on the back of the head: "You are talking nonsense to the guest again, why don't you bring the recipe quickly?"
This slap was really serious. With tears in the corners of his eyes, the child ran to the side to get the recipe.
"I have met the young master. This boy is an orphan picked up by the old man. He has no father or mother. I raise him as my own granddaughter. The old man loves him too much, but he has caused trouble to the guest."
"You said he is a girl?" Chen Jiu said in surprise.
To be honest, this little boy is so young that Chen Jiu should not distinguish between male and female.
? ?The shopkeeper nodded: "Exactly."
Chen Jiu laughed: "I'm not afraid of trouble. What the little guy said before was quite interesting. This is the first time I heard someone tell me about ghosts."
The wrinkles on the old man's face deepened: "Young master, please don't talk about ghosts and gods."
The little boy brought a recipe, Chen Jiu flipped through it casually, and then ordered four dishes: "Just these four."
The old shopkeeper took note of it and cooked it himself. Since what happened in the hotel, all the chefs in the store have left.
The little boy walked over clumsily carrying a wine jar the size of his head, and then whispered: "I think you are a good person. This is the Zhuangyuanhong that my grandfather has hidden for more than seventy years. You are in for a treat today." ".
Chen Jiu looked at this little guy and said, "Why are you taking out the old wine that has been treasured for decades? If you don't pat your grandfather, I'll beat you up."
The little boy's eyebrows furrowed: "Hit me, this restaurant can't open any more. No one dares to buy it if it wants to be sold. My grandfather doesn't drink this wine. When someone buys this restaurant in the future, it will be an advantage for others. It's better to give you a drink, at least I feel you are very comfortable."
Chen Jiu was not polite, took the wine jar, gently tore open the kraft paper, and a strong aroma of wine came out: "It's really good wine."
The little boy looked at Chen Jiu with a proud expression on his face.
"My name is Chen Jiu, which is nine, one, two, three, five, six, seven, eight, nine, which can also be the wine for drinking."
"My name is Feiyan, the one who flies here and there, the swallow of swallows."
Chen Jiu took a sip of wine and said: "What a good name. In the old days, Wang Xietang's Yan Yan flew into the homes of ordinary people. What a good name. What a good name."
Although the little boy doesn¡¯t understand poetry, he still finds Chen Jiu¡¯s line ¡°In the old days, the swallows in front of the Wang Xietang, flying into the homes of ordinary people¡± are indeed very pleasing to the ear.
¡°My master, the food is ready.¡± The old shopkeeper came up with the food.
Before he even got to the house, he praised her: "Good wine, really good wine. This wine must have been stored in the dust for at least several decades."
Chen Jiu laughed and looked at the old shopkeeper who pushed in the door: "My old boss has good eyesight. This wine is indeed decades old."
"Sigh, it's hard to find fine wine that has lasted for decades." The old shopkeeper put the dishes on the table one by one, looked at the wine jar, and muttered: "Why is this wine jar so familiar?"
A smile appeared on Chen Jiu's lips: "It is indeed very familiar. This is the jar of Number One Scholar's Red hidden deep in the shopkeeper's house."
The old shopkeeper was stunned when he heard this, and then said with a wry smile: "Feiyan, that girl."
Seeing the old shopkeeper pulling Feiyan away, Chen Jiu didn't stop him. He gently poured a glass of wine and took a sip: "Good wine, really good wine."
"Good wine is not something you, a short-lived ghost, can enjoy. If you don't leave here, I'm afraid you won't be able to see the sun tomorrow, let alone enjoy this fine wine."
Why do people always come to disturb others when they are enjoying themselves the most, just like this uninvited guest in front of me.
A faint ghost aura came. Different from ordinary ghosts, this ghost had some incense aura.
Chen Jiu did not raise his head, slowly took a sip of the wine, and then said lightly: "What an uninvited guest. Did I let you in?".
"What did you say?" The ghost didn't seem to hear Chen Jiu's words, and was very surprised and angry.
"Since this place has been bought by me, it is my place. I have the final say here before I leave. Who told you, a brat, to come in without my consent as the master? You actually threatened me and let me go." Ci, I hate people like you who don¡¯t understand the world the most. Now that you¡¯re here, don¡¯t leave.¡±
After finishing speaking, Chen Jiu put down his wine glass and looked at the illusory figure opposite, with a ray of light shooting out of his eyes.
