[thirty five]
The landlord said: "Do you know how many floors this building has?"
Zuo Yunqi said: "The seventh floor?"
The landlord said: "It's the eighth floor."
The landlord got up and turned out of the study, saying, "Follow me."
Zuo Yun raised his eyelids.
[Thirty-six]
The landlord took Zuo Yunqi around, walked into an inconspicuous storage room on the ground floor, poked the wall a few times seemingly out of order, and saw the wall tiles move suddenly, revealing a black hole. Entrance. Inside is a wooden ladder that seems to lead down to the ground.
Zuo Yunqi said desperately: "Brother, if you see that I am unhappy, just hand me back to the Qinglong Gang, there is no need to solve it on the spot."
"..."
The landlord ignored him and climbed down first.
Zuo Yunqi turned his head and looked around, knowing that there was nowhere to escape, so he could only follow silently.
The more you climb down, the thicker the darkness, and you can hardly see your fingers. Zuo Yunqi was secretly accumulating energy and preparing to give it a go, when suddenly a fire flashed underneath, and the host took a fire pocket and lit the oil lamp.
The basement floor of this building is still a storage room.
Zuo Yunqi dropped his feet to the ground, and opened his mouth slightly to look at the scene in front of him.
[thirty-seven]
The landlord pointed to a pile of weird-looking iron objects in the corner and said: "This is called a bicycle. This is called a scooter. These are made by people who came here in recent years. The workmanship is poor and they are easy to rust. Can't really use it."
Zuo Yunqi didn't say a word, trying to figure out his intention.
The landlord took a few steps, picked up a small piece of red cloth tied into a knot, and said, "This is called a red scarf. At that time, His Majesty asked a person to show his talents, so he cut out this thing, and was eliminated on the spot and sent to the sky prison." .Your Majesty ordered someone to throw this thing away, but I secretly picked it up."
The landlord tied the red cloth around his neck melancholy.
"..."
"This is a painting given to me by a girl who wears clothes. Look at this head, isn't it very three-dimensional. It's hard for her to paint shadows and highlights with ink."
"..."
Zuo Yunqi listened to the host's rambling introduction, and unconsciously shifted his gaze from the interior decoration to the host's face.
[thirty eight]
The whole secret room is full of weird products that are incompatible with this era and useless for this world. They are covered with rust and dust, and exude the smell of dead things.
Even the figure standing in it seemed immersed in a thick and suffocating loneliness.
Zuo Yunqi didn't know if it could be called nostalgia.
Finally, the landlord chuckled and said: "The seat I'm sitting in is a bit embarrassing, and my power is limited. Even if I want to protect others, I can't help much. After sending them to the palace, even if they are not imprisoned, they will be distributed to all parts of the country. , I will probably never see each other again in this life. But I still miss them in my heart."
"..."
The landlord looked at Zuo Yunqi and said, "I think you are inexplicably pleasing to the eye."
Zuo Yunqi said: "...Thank you."
[thirty-nine]
The landlord said: "You have an indescribable sense of familiarity, and I haven't thought of the reason for the time being."
The secret room was very cramped, and the two stood very close, sniffing each other. The landlord took a step towards him expressionlessly, and Zuo Yunqi involuntarily backed away half a step.
The landlord said: "Maybe you really wore it, but you didn't tell the truth because of some difficulties."
Zuo Yunqi guardedly kept silent.
The landlord took another step closer, Zuo Yunqi had no way to retreat, his back touched the wall, he raised his head and stared at the landlord, like a trapped animal with fur.
The host said: "Maybe you told the truth, there was indeed a certain traveler who taught you."
Zuo Yunqi vaguely heard the hope of life from his tone, but he suspected that this was some kind of trick, and couldn't think of the next countermeasure for a while.
The landlord suddenly smiled and said, "I hope you can tell me one day."
[forty]
Zuo Yunqi froze on the spot, the host had already turned around, and said: "I have no reason to believe you, but I still believe you. You can even fool me, so you can fool the emperor."
"..."
Zuo Yunqi said in surprise, "What?"
The landlord said: "I will send you into the palace tomorrow."
Zuo Yunqi looked up in disbelief.
The landlord didn't look at his expression and climbed up the ladder.
[forty one]
Zuo Yunqi's heart was pounding. The more frank the poster was, the more guilty he felt, and he almost told the whole plan.
But recalling the earnest entrustment received before leaving, he calmed down again and warned himself that he must not add any more variables to this important event.
That night, the landlord practiced it for Zuo Yunqi.
After a few glasses of strong wine, the host took Zuo Yunqi's shoulders and said earnestly, "Do you understand Zang Zhuo, Zang Zhuo?"
Zuo Yunqi said: "...Understood."
The landlord said: "You have to be talented, don't be thrown into the sky prison as a waste. But don't reveal too much, don't ask yourself to be an official, idiots do that. Officials are generations of businessmen with deep roots, killing you It's like playing."
Zuo Yunqi said: "Understood."
The landlord said: "It's better to be a businessman like me, the status is almost low, at least live a chic life."
Zuo Yunqi hesitated and said, "Not everyone has the qualification to be unrestrained."
The landlord thought about it, and said: "What you said is somewhat reasonable. The handsome can be chic, and the ugly is lazy."
"..."
[Forty-two]
The next day, the landlord sent Zuo Yunqi into the palace gate, and then retreated according to the rules. When I returned to the building, I was worried, so I sent my confidant to inquire.
After half a day, his confidant went back upstairs and reported, "Young Master Zuo has passed the examination and has been sent to the household department."
The landlord frowned and said, "I told him not to be an official if he can!"
The confidant said: "Perhaps it is His Majesty's will, Mr. Zuo has no choice but to comply."
The landlord sighed, "That's impossible."
Two days later, the servant came back after inquiring about the news: "I heard that Mr. Zuo invited himself to the Ministry of Households to manage the treasury!"
The landlord said: "What?"
The servant said: "He claimed in the hall that he was a jewelry appraiser in his previous life."
"..."
The landlord said: "Jewelry? Appraiser?"
The landlord couldn't laugh or cry: "He said so, does His Majesty believe that?"
The servant said: "Young Master Zuo showed extraordinary ability to recognize treasures on the spot, His Majesty is very satisfied."
The landlord was dumbfounded.
Zuo Yunqi stayed in the building for many days, and he didn't even mention the word "treasure" once.
The landlord smelled a faint smell of conspiracy.
[forty three]
Two days later, the host received a letter from Lin Kai.
The letter said: "The landlord pays homage to me: I have something, I don't know if I should say it or not."
"..."
The landlord turned the letter to the back and confirmed that there was no other word.
"..."
The landlord silently wrote: "Leader Lin Baiqi: Then you think about it slowly."
[Forty-four]
A few days later, Lin Kai wrote back: "The landlord thanks you: I've made up my mind, let's talk about it.
"Actually, the sect has been looking for a legendary treasure called Nai He Xiang. This is an extremely expensive spice, and a small amount of it is worth a thousand gold. But the world does not know that Nai He Xiang is actually a blind medicine. Accompanied by The prescriptions developed by other sects can greatly increase the internal strength of martial arts practitioners, and they can make thousands of miles a day, and can even match the achievements of others who have practiced for decades.
"Although Naihe incense is hard to find in the world, there are rumors that there is a bullet-sized incense pill in the imperial palace, and it is placed in the Yufu of the treasury!"
"..."
The landlord replied: "Do you know that the leader of the sect's young gang has sneaked into the treasury now?"
A few days later, Lin Kai replied: "I know."
"..."
[forty five]
The host cannot express his feelings effectively at the moment.
The landlord dipped in cinnabar and painted bloody characters all over the paper: "You know? How the hell do you know? Why didn't you remind me when you knew???"
A few days later, Lin Kai replied: "Do you know why he can report so much modern knowledge?"
The landlord replied: "Why?"
A few days later, Lin Kai replied, "I taught him."
"..."
There was a sweetness in the landlord's throat, and a mouthful of old blood spattered more than three feet.
[forty-six]
The landlord's mind was full of the words "inadvertently making friends", and he wished he could fly in front of Lin Kai with his wings on his back and beat him to the ground.
Lin Kaixin said: "Every time you chat with me, when you get drunk, you start to talk about the things in your world. You can't stop it if you want to stop it. What three represent important ideas, what elementary and middle school students broadcast gymnastics, Everything is included, and I sang the alphabet song to me several times. I thought it was interesting, so I took a pen and wrote it down one by one. Who knows that you have no memory after waking up."
"..."
The landlord finally figured out something.
He finally understood why Zuo Yunqi had a familiar aura of deja vu in everything Zuo Yunqi said...
[forty seven]
Before the landlord could find Lin Kai, Lin Kai arrived in the building first.
Lin Kai not only came to the door by himself, but also brought more than a dozen top martial arts experts behind him, appearing very imposing.
The landlord sat in the hall, and said grimly: "Do you think I can't kill you like this?"
Lin Kai shook his folding fan and said, "Calm down, why are you shouting and killing as soon as you come up, what about your quality."
"..."
[Forty eight]
The landlord was very angry and laughed back: "A friend, why do you want to kill me?"
Lin Kaidao: "I didn't harm you, isn't everything going smoothly?"
The landlord patted the table and said: "A guy who is determined to steal treasures from the national treasury has sneaked into the national treasury! You are still here to say that everything is fine!"
The old god Lin Kai said: "Calm down. If he can't get in, it's really impossible to calm down. You don't understand."
"..."
The landlord said: "I really don't understand."
Lin Kaidao: "You just need to trust me, the Wulin League has always been reliable in its work. Even if it really fails, so many masters are enough to save your life."
The landlord said: "Hey, dare you still want to live with me?"
Lin Kaidao: "I heard that the wine here is delicious and meaty, so I'm here to experience it by the way."
"..."
The landlord wanted to cry but said without tears: "I just want to live a little nourishing life, what kind of grudge do I have against you?"
Lin Kai said seriously: "For the peace of the universe."
