For the magic weapon of the cultivation world, Ye Que actually doesn't have too urgent a need, but the little demon fox tonight reminded Ye Que that the demon world should have begun to invade the human world, and everyone may not pay much attention to it now, but leave it to His time will certainly not be too long.
Ye Que has a plan for improving his realm, but a clever woman can't cook without rice, some elixir or materials still need some chances to find, if there is a ready-made auction, it's not bad to go and have a look.
Seeing that Ye Que was moved, Qian Shuxiao quickly said, "Sir, don't worry, as long as it is something you fancy, I will definitely take a picture of it for you and offer it to you with both hands. Financial resources, our Qian family has never been afraid of anyone."
"If you can find something you want, I owe you a favor." Ye Que said in a deep voice.
"Don't dare, it's a great favor for you to accompany me." Qian Shu smiled happily.
As far as Qian Shuxiao is concerned, as the only grandson of the Qian family in Luoyang, it is not necessary to be so humble when making friends with others. , Who is worthy of deep friendship, and who is worth spending a lot of money to make friends with. People are the most worthy of investment. The reason why the Qian family has come to this day is because there are always noble people to help.
The first time Qian Shuxiao saw Ye Que, he was shocked by his skill, not to mention his own life was saved by Ye Que. In his opinion, Ye Que should be the noble person he was destined for.
As for the so-called Luoyang Four Young Masters, they are just wine and meat friends, who can share joys and sorrows, but cannot share sorrows.
Without paying attention to Han Yu and the others, Qian Shuxiao directly led Ye Que out of the Peony Building.
Soon, when the time reached midnight, the entire Luoyang City gradually entered a drowsy state, the bustle of the night market also slowly dissipated, and almost all the diners in the lobby on the first floor of the Peony Building were gone. At this time, the boss was calculating the income for the day with an abacus, and the little second hand was doing the finishing work quickly. As for the guests on the second and third floors, they had already fallen asleep.
The kitchen of the Peony Building is behind the lobby. There is a small room on the left hand side of the kitchen. Under the small room is a wine cellar, which stores high-vintage wines that are not often sold on weekdays. The wine cellar is kept full all the year round. Great, will fix it after a while. Several circuses from the Western Regions have come to the Luoyang Night Market in the past few days, so there are extraordinarily many diners in the Mudanlou, and the consumption of high-vintage wine is higher than usual. Tonight is just the day to restock.
Zhang Xiaojiu is the nephew of the owner of the Peony Building, so it is natural that such a good job of purchasing and replenishing goods cannot be done by others. After touching the bulging money bag around his waist, Zhang Xiaojiu hummed a little song, holding the last jar to age Du Kang walked towards the wine cellar.
Holding the wine jar in one hand and the wooden ladder in the other, Zhang Xiaojiu walks a familiar path, only three or four meters high, and can walk into the wine cellar in the blink of an eye. Even squinting he won't trip.
"Don't mention dragons and phoenixes, don't talk about marriage, your appearance has penetrated into my heart." After receiving the offering from the winery, Zhang Xiaojiu was in a particularly good mood, humming a little song with great interest. The wine cellar is not small, but there is only him alone, and the echo of the sound is naturally excellent.
"Chhhhhhh."
"who?"
Zhang Xiaojiu called out uncertainly, just now he seemed to vaguely heard some movement in the depths of the wine cellar.
"Chhhhhhh."
Just after shouting, I heard two more sounds, as if something was rubbing against the ground.
A trace of cold sweat broke out from the palm of Zhang Xiaojiu's hand. After all, it was midnight, and in this dark underground wine cellar, if there was an accident, there was no place to cry. Subconsciously took out a fire letter, Zhang Xiaojiu blew a few breaths tremblingly, and soon the fire lit up the whole wine cellar.
Raising his head and squinting his eyes to look carefully, there was nothing in the whole wine cellar except hundreds of jars of fine wine. Zhang Xiaojiu let out a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and wiped the sweat from his palms. It can scare people to death.
"Never restock at night next time, this place is too crowded." Zhang Xiaojiu muttered and put Du Kang in his hand on the drunk driver next to him, turned around and walked back. Don't want to be here.
"Buddha bless, Buddha bless." Zhang Xiaojiu was still muttering while walking.
But the moment he turned around, a blood-red snake letter suddenly appeared in the shadow of a wine jar, and then a green snake head. In just one breath, the green shadow crawled towards Zhang Xiaojiu in a zigzag pattern. When he raised his legs to climb up the wooden ladder, the snake head under his feet showed four white fangs.
"What?" Zhang Xiaojiu only felt a pain in his ankle, and a tingling sensation began to hit him suddenly, holding the fire letter in his hand and looking down at his feet. As Huoxinzi passed behind him, Zhang Xiaojiu's eyes widened, and he showed an expression of extreme fear. He swore that he had never seen such a terrifying scene in his life.
The wine jars surrounding the wine cellar, as far as the eye can see, are densely packed, full of snakes, black, blue, green, all kinds of colors, countless.

On the wall deep in the wine cellar, under the light of the fire, a dark shadow was projected on it, which looked like a human being but not a human being.
A scream came from the wine cellar underground.
The hut where Naihe Wine Cellar was located was a little far from the lobby of the Peony Building, and there was no one in the kitchen at this time, so no one heard Zhang Xiaojiu's last cry for help.
Time passed quickly, less than a quarter of an hour.
In a guest room on the second floor, a fat and white businessman was lying on the bed snoring profusely, mumbling a few words in his sleep from time to time, maybe the fat businessman was afraid of the heat, so the roller blind was not put down on the bed. His room happened to be on the sunny side, and by the moonlight, he could see slender shadows slowly approaching the bed, climbing up the fat merchant's belly as if they were positioning themselves, and then opened their fangs together.
At the same time, a woman on the third floor who came to visit relatives from other places was also surrounded by snakes, and a young man who came to Luoyang to make a living at the corner was also murdered. In the entire second and third floors of the Mudan Building, only one room heard a sound. help. It was a scholar from Qingzhou Prefecture who came to Luoyang to take the imperial examination. He didn't sleep at night and was still studying hard, but happened to witness the whole process of being besieged by snakes. Although he did not fall asleep and was awake, he only persisted for a few more seconds. How could a scholar who had no strength to restrain a chicken defeat the snakes.
"San'er, was there a sound just now?" The boss of Peony Building was doing some calculations when he suddenly raised his head and asked the waiter.
"It seems to be coming from the third floor." The guy named San'er replied uncertainly.
"It's unlucky. It's been this night, and there's no rest. First it was the young master surnamed Qian, and then the young master surnamed Han. What's the matter now? Are there any other distinguished guests on the third floor?" The boss rubbed his brows with a headache Said, "San'er, go up and have a look, let them go to bed early if they have nothing to do, don't make trouble, this is Luoyang, there are laws and rules."
"Alright, boss, I'll go right away." San'er replied briskly, and walked up to the second floor. He walked up to the second floor slowly, but in the blink of an eye, he jumped down in a hurry, shouting in horror while running, "Old, boss, snake, snake."
"Snake? Where is there a snake? Why do you make such a fuss about a snake? Just find someone to get it out. Let's see how good you are!" The boss reprimanded with a raised face.
"No, it's not one." San'er gestured with his fingers, and he couldn't speak clearly. You must know that he is the waiter in the lobby, and he does all his work with his mouth. "Boss, boss, you, behind you."
"Dang Dang Dang."
"It's dry, watch out for candles."
To the west of Changsheng Bridge, on Yong'an Avenue, the old man who was on the clock wandered past the Peony Building, thinking about the pot of wine he drank before nightfall, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Qian's Mansion is not on Yong'an Street, but on Zhuque Street, which is a little further north. It is a ten-storey house with hundreds of rooms. Although the area is not as rich as my hometown, this is Luoyang, where every inch of land is expensive. place. It is said that this house was the residence of a prince in the previous dynasty, and it was bought by the Qian family after the change of dynasty.
Qian Shuxiao's six large sedan chairs turned around and walked for a long time before stopping in front of a garden shady with green trees.
"Master, you're home."
After getting off the sedan chair, Qian Shu smiled and pointed to a room in front of him, "Sir, this guest room is the best environment in my house. There is a pond with hundreds of fish in the back and a green bamboo forest in front. It is only 100 meters away from my room. It is quiet and quiet. Elegant, green trees and red flowers, take a look and see if you are satisfied, if not, I will find a place for you."
Ye Que looked in the direction Qian Shuxiao pointed, walked through a path paved with gravel, and passed through a small bamboo forest. At the end was a small house with red roof and blue tiles, "You can live anywhere, I'm fine with that." There are no high requirements for these things, as long as they are not too noisy, you can look at the arrangements."
"That's why I'm wronged, this way please." Qian Shu smiled and led the way, "By the way, I don't know what to call you all the time?"
"Ye Que."
"It is better to be short than to be short."
"Good name."
"Do businessmen like flattering so much?"
"There's no flattering, your name is indeed excellent." Qian Shuxiao scratched his hair in embarrassment, if it wasn't flattering, even he himself didn't believe it.
At this moment, it was approaching the middle of the night, and many houses in Qian Mansion had turned off the lights to rest, except for some maids who needed to be on night shift. But the strange thing is that after they walked a few steps, they saw that there was still a brightly lit room on the north side of the green bamboo forest at this time. Judging by the size and structure, it was obviously not the servant's residence.
Qian Shuxiao's ability to observe words and expressions is really good, and after taking a look, he explained, "This room was originally empty, but recently for some reason, my sister insisted on moving here, and became obsessed with writing and painting here. Sometimes it takes one night to paint, which is unbelievable."
"Did your sister paint before?" Ye Que asked casually.
"Although my sister's name is Qian Shuhua, she never touches a pen."
Ye Que subconsciously looked at the brightly lit room, and saw a silhouette of a short-haired woman by the window, looking like she was painting. The main door of the room was open, and there were two little maids standing on the left and right of the door, both of whom were already dozing off from sleepiness. There was a painting on the wall facing the door.
Seen from a distance, it is full of meaning, but when you look closely, the cloud suddenly looks like a beast that can eat people, and the cloud cluster is exactly that bloody mouth.
