It is said that it is better to catch up early than coincidentally. On the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, the lights up and down the city of Hangzhou are brightly lit. The daughters put the river lanterns to pray for blessings, and some people are in love with the West Lake. The beautiful night scenery is intoxicating.
Hua Che was lying on the roof, and the terracotta was a little rough, but it didn't hurt. He drank a little sake, got a little drunk, and soon became sleepy.
Chu Binghuan sat beside him and released some real essence to protect Hua Che to prevent him from being infested by mosquitoes.
The bright moon hangs high, and the meteors are like rain.
Suddenly remembering the previous life, he and Hua Che went to Shangqing Xianmen, participated in the disciple assessment, passed the test all the way, and became the focus of the audience.
Compared with the threshold of Lingxiao Palace, Shangqing Xianmen is much stricter. From the foot of Kunlun Mountain, there are countless traps, poisonous miasma, labyrinth, monsters, ghosts, and illusions along the way. .
Until now, Chu Binghuan still remembered that Hua Che forced the only drug-prevention pill in his hand to him in the face of Baili miasma.
"Young Xia, if you can survive, please send my corpse to Hangzhou and give it to my favorite Granny Jiang."
History is always strikingly similar.
Chu Binghuan didn't have the heart to slander his mantra, squatted down to check Hua Che's pulse, and asked, "Why me?"
Hua Che was so dizzy, she simply leaned on the tree stump, closed her eyes and said, "My mother taught me to repay my gratitude since I was a child. You saved me from those two thugs, and I should repay you."
Chu Binghuan recalled that Hua Che had instinctively sacrificed his life to save him when he was blocked by a monster half a month ago. He said, "You have already repaid."
Hua Che: "The grace of dripping water is reciprocated by the spring."
Chu Binghuan frowned: "I helped you with a little effort, you don't have to work hard. Also, since I was five years old, I have tasted all kinds of herbs, and I have long been invulnerable to all kinds of poisons. I can't take this poisonous miasma."
"What?" Hua Che, who was about to die, suddenly deceived his body, "I'm kind enough to cooperate with me?"
Chu Binghuan was amused by this reaction and wanted to laugh, but he held it back. In order to prevent the evildoer from getting too far ahead, he deliberately taught a lesson with a cold face: "What do you think?"
"..." Hua Che was stunned.
Of course, with Chu Binghuan around, the bit of miasma that Hua Che inhaled was quickly resolved. The illusion that followed was extremely dangerous. According to the disciples of Shangqing, this was the real test before entry.
Only an honest person with righteousness, uprightness, and no desires and no desires can walk out of the illusion, otherwise they will go mad, or bleed to death in the worst case.
Hua Che was very unhappy with the "pass or die" rule.
Chu Binghuan was more worried that Hua Che would be planted in it, rather than treating human life like a mustard.
After all, this person is full of bad water and can't be said to be open and aboveboard, and he is also frivolous, unruly and unruly, and has nothing to do with the words "no desires and no desires".
What Chu Binghuan never expected was that when he came out of the illusion, Hua Che was already waiting on the stage.
"You..." Chu Binghuan couldn't believe his eyes.
If you want to cultivate the Great Dao, you must first cut off his emotions and desires, not to mention that Hua Che is used to reading some text books, and his living environment since he was a child has dyed him with fireworks. It is said that seven days and seven nights are not the same.
How could such a person who is deeply immersed in the world pass the supernatural illusion
Chu Binghuan hesitated again and again and asked, "Are you, have you let go of the betrothed?"
"You mean Chu Tianyu?" Hua Che laughed, "I didn't do anything to him. Two days ago, I passed the Zhang Lingfu to Yuntianshuijing, and by the way, I sent the token of the year. For Yuntianshui's sake. Mirror's reputation, it is said that we are both males, and it is the same if we cannot be husband and wife and brothers, so as not to make irresponsible remarks all over the world, and it is not good for Chu Tianyu."
Chu Binghuan stopped talking.
"Count the time, the magic talisman should arrive! By the way, young hero, we have known each other for so long, and you haven't told me what your name is. I, young hero, call you, it's weird, tell me anyway. Last name?"
Chu Binghuan looked at Hua Che who was looking forward to it, and without waiting to speak, suddenly a golden talisman was drawn from the sky. The talisman was folded into the shape of a bird, with a long jade pendant hanging from its tail. , perfectly found the owner.
The talisman dissipated, the jade pendant fell into Chu Binghuan's hands, and dense words appeared in the air.
- I am your future husband, but if the sky is not beautiful, you and I have no relationship after all. Please declare to the outside world that you and I are both men and not suitable for marriage, lest people in the world be suspicious and have a bad influence on Young Master Chu; return the token, and see you in the future.
Chu Binghuan: "..."
The elders of Shangqing Xianmen: "..."
"You, you..." Hua Che widened his phoenix eyes, and pointed at Chu Binghuan who was embarrassed, "You are actually my scumbag!?"
Chu Binghuan: "..."
The fireworks blooming in the night sky were a little dazzling, Hua Che turned his head and saw Chu Binghuan in a trance.
"Have you gone home?" Hua Che asked.
Chu Binghuan looked at him and nodded lightly.
Hua Che sat up: "I really have someone to go and see."
Chu Binghuan stood up instinctively, Hua Che looked at him, and laughed, "No, don't you go? That place... is not suitable for a clean-looking young master Chu."
Chu Binghuan had already guessed it.
Hua Che is going to the most famous brothel in Hangzhou.
That was also the place where Hua Meier sold herself before her death. Granny Jiang was an old servant who took care of Hua Kui. She had been with Hua Meier for more than 20 years and was as close as her biological mother. When Hua Meier left the brothel, she also redeemed her life for Granny Jiang, an old man, a daughter and a son to live alone.
Later, after Hua Mei'er passed away, Granny Jiang returned to work in the brothel and was responsible for raising Hua Che, who was only eleven years old.
And Hua Che couldn't bear Jiang's mother-in-law to work hard at her age, so she secretly ran to the restaurant to run the hall, wrote family letters for others, swept the pigsty, cleaned the manger, was also drunk by some hypocritical guests, and was thrown by some grumpy shopkeepers They were beaten and scolded, and they were even carried away in sacks by malicious traffickers.
Later, when his so-called biological father came to him, he was already the elder brother of Shangqing Xianmen, and the Hua Xian Shi who was praised by everyone.
Facing the so-called relative father, he only asked two words coldly: "When my mother was pregnant in October and was kicked out by Zuimanlou, where were you? When my mother passed away, and I was wagging my tail and begging for life, you were there again. Where?"
Poor Granny Jiang worked hard all her life for his Hua's mother and son. She didn't enjoy a few years of happiness, but she was affected by Hua Che and died without a whole body.
"Little young master is back? Hurry up, sit down and sit down, the old servant will pour you tea." Granny Jiang was ecstatic, she took Longjing tea from Duke Gui and filled Hua Che's cup.
Hua Che took out the purse and handed it to her, and said, "We are not short of money, so don't come here all the time. I heard from my mother that you have relatives in Suzhou, so take the money and go to them!"
Granny Jiang was taken aback: "Where did you get so much money?"
"Master rewarded me!" Hua Che said with a hilarious smile, "I've worshipped in the Lingxiao Palace."
How can women and Taoists like Granny Jiang know this? For them, as long as it is Xianmen, it is a holy place. Besides, the name of this "Lingxiao Treasure Palace" sounds really intimidating at first, so Granny Jiang obeyed on the spot: "Yes, but the place where the Jade Emperor lives? Young master, don't scare the old slave."
Hua Che explained it to her in detail, and Granny Jiang seemed to understand it too. She handed the purse back and said, "I'm an old lady, and I don't need so much money. You can quickly put it away and use it at the teacher's door."
Granny Jiang said earnestly: "Gusu's relatives are also distant relatives who can't be beaten, and I don't want to go to them. Miss Meier is my master, and you are also my master. I just want to take good care of the young master. Don't go."
Hua Che's eyes warmed, and he got up and hugged Granny Jiang.
Granny Jiang laughed: "Why is the young master becoming more and more coquettish?"
Hua Che said: "You keep the money, I don't need to take care of me in the master's door, the master is amiable, the brothers are very kind to me, they also say, which angel came to the world to raise me so well, with red lips and white teeth and tender skin Meat, they are envious."
Granny Jiang was amused.
Before leaving, Granny Jiang stopped Hua Che. She hesitated and asked quietly, "Young master, tell the truth to this old slave, where did you get so much money?"
Hua Che: "I said that Master rewarded, not only me, but my brothers and sisters."
"It's not that one." Granny Jiang carefully took out a stack of silver notes from her arms, and Hua Che was taken aback, "How did you do this?"
"Didn't the young master ask them to give it?" Granny Jiang was even more surprised than Hua Che.
Hua Che's heart trembled, feeling that something was not quite right: "Tell me in detail."
Granny Jiang nodded and said, "The madam suddenly wants to give me a salary increase, and I feel that something is wrong. Even the supervisor in charge doesn't have that much! I went to ask the madam, and she only said that I worked in the drunken building. Thirty years, long experience, deserved it. Later, a few benefactors came to Zuimanlou as guests, and they didn't ask the girls to serve them, nor did they go to the second floor to discuss matters, they just sat in the lobby on the first floor and drank tea, but every time they would Tell me to come over, say that I serve you well, and reward me with money, young master, you see, these three hundred taels of silver notes are what they rewarded."
Common people, fifty taels of silver is enough for them to eat for a year.
Hua Che is unbelievable.
What kind of virtue is that old bustard is very clear, the typical iron rooster is stubborn, acerbic and loves money like his life, how can he increase his wages for no reason
Also, those sons who gave money to Granny Jiang inexplicably acted too abruptly. Obviously, they went to Zuimanlou to give money to Granny Jiang on purpose.
Who would be so kind
They don't want to reveal their identities, so they will naturally disguise themselves, and there will be no clues about their physical characteristics if they ask Granny Jiang.
Could it be his father
Hua Che felt a chill, and instantly rejected this possibility.
In his previous life, he also attracted the attention of his father after he became famous in the Six Realms. Now he's just a nobody, it's impossible.
Hua Che asked, "Do they come at a regular time?"
Grandma Jiang said: "The middle of every month, from the tenth to the fifteenth day of the first month."
Hua Che's heart lit up, and the clear phoenix eyes overflowed with arrogance: "It's a coincidence, Master gave me a seven-day rest, just to see what their origins are."
