Chapter 522 I’m here to clean up the house!
The Four Treasures of the Study Shop is called "Jiyue Qingfeng".
There were still a few customers in the store, and the only clerk was introducing them to them, but very few of them actually paid for anything.
One is that not many people use pens to write nowadays, let alone an inconvenient writing tool like a brush.
Besides, the items in this shop are not cheap. A brush costs hundreds, and an inkstone costs several thousand yuan. Who wouldn’t think carefully about it?
However, this store has quite a big storefront. The rent in this antique market will definitely not be cheap. I don’t know how it can be maintained?
In a corner of the store, there was a tea seat separated by a wooden screen. Two people were sitting across from each other at the moment, and the water in the teapot was already gurgling.
The man sitting in the main seat is about fifty years old and should be the owner of the shop here.
It was also he who was doing the work of washing the tea sets, looking like he was entertaining guests.
The man sitting opposite the shop owner has a red face. Just looking at his appearance, you can't tell how old he is, and he also exudes a special temperament.
This man's hair was meticulously combed back, and he had a short beard under his chin. His eyes exuded a strange light, and he had a calm and upright aura even when he was sitting there.
He was wearing a double-breasted silk Tang suit and a pair of cloth shoes on his feet. He looked somewhat similar to Gu Shen's dress. I wonder if Gu Shen deliberately imitated it?
"Brother Li, the water has boiled three times and is ready to be put into the cup!"
The red-faced man seemed to have been staring at the teapot next to him and suddenly spoke.
At the same time, the shop owner named Li had raised his hand.
The words and actions of the two people were almost at the same time, which shows that they have high requirements for the quality of tea, and they are masters of tea ceremony at first glance.
Chi...
The fine tea leaves that had been placed long ago were washed with boiling water, and there was a soft sound.
Then a burst of tea steam began to rise, and the entire tea seat was filled with the aroma of tea.
After a while, the man in Tang suit picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Then, a look of enjoyment appeared on his face.
"Brother Li's tea ceremony skills are truly outstanding in Daxia. Wu's trip is well worth it!"
The man in Tang suit held the teacup in his hand and did not hesitate to praise him, which made the shopkeeper across the street look on his face. , and a faint smile appeared.
“Brother Wu, if you drink my tea, don’t forget to write a couplet for me to hang at the door.”
It seems that shopkeeper Li’s tea is not so delicious. The other party just took a sip, and he couldn't wait to speak out, making the man surnamed Wu opposite him dumbfounded.
You must know that the plaque of Ji Yue Qingfeng was made by this person.
Shopkeeper Li has always wanted the other party to write another couplet for him, but he has never found the opportunity.
This time the other party finally made a trip down the mountain, so Shopkeeper Li naturally wanted to seize this opportunity.
He even brought out the best tea in his store and used his best tea-making skills.
“A cup of tea, a word, you decide what to do!”
The man surnamed Wu is not so easy to fool, he picked up the tea and took another sip, and in his mouth The words he said made the smile on the face of shopkeeper Li opposite him grow a little stronger.
"Haha, I know your calligraphy, Brother Chengjing, is not so easy to pick up."
Shopkeeper Li laughed. After hearing his two words, Wu Chengjing opposite also smiled slightly.
"Your Li Ji's good tea is not so delicious!"
As soon as these words were said, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, seeming to feel that they had taken advantage.
This is called everyone getting what he needs. One of the two is good at tea ceremony, and the other is good at calligraphy and painting. They each have their own strengths, and they have always coveted the other's things.
Or maybe the two of them have been old friends for many years, and what they just said was just a joyful conversation between old friends.
“Brother Wu suddenly came down the mountain this time, you don’t just want to drink a cup of tea from me, right?”
Li Ji added tea to the other person’s tea cup and asked seemingly casually , in fact, he was really curious.
After all, Wu Chengjing is his old friend. Due to his special status, he has not left the mountain for almost three years. The two friends have not seen each other for three years.
Therefore, Li Ji knew clearly that if it was not something important, this man would definitely not come out. At most, he would send his disciples out to deliver the news.
"Well, Brother Li is one of his own, so there is no need to hide it from you."
Wu Chengjing put down the tea cup gently, sighed first, and then said: "Unfortunately, something happened to our master. Scum, I personally came out this time to clean up the family."
As soon as he said this, Li Ji's expression changed.
He knew exactly where the sect Wu Chengjing was talking about was. It was an ancient martial arts sect that was far away from the world.
The Wu Chengjing in front of him is a big shot in that sect. It is said that the people in this sect have been practicing martial arts since childhood and are all talented people.
It’s just that the rules of these sects are extremely strict. Although they are not allowed to have disciples born, they must not show off their skills easily. Violators will be severely punished by the sect.
"Brother Wu, is the matter serious?"
Li Ji asked carefully, but the next moment he saw a look of anger on Wu Chengjing's face opposite him.
“Killing someone, do you think it’s a big deal?”
When Wu Chengjing said these words, Li Ji immediately shut up.
Because he knew clearly that he could never get involved in this kind of thing.
And a disciple of the ancient martial arts sect actually killed someone outside. This is already a shocking thing, and may attract the attention of some special departments in Daxia.
“Alas, it was my oversight that made this big mistake, so I had to take action myself.”
Wu Chengjing did not go into the details of the incident, and sighed again before saying : "Forget it, don't talk about these bad things, let's drink tea."
Li Ji raised the tea cup, but he could feel that Wu Chengjing's mood seemed to have become a bit worse at this moment, and the smile just now was no longer visible on his face.
This made Li Ji regret a little bit why he asked more questions just now. Otherwise, wouldn't the other party be in a better mood if he didn't think of it?
"Master, Master!"
After drinking another cup of tea, a voice suddenly came from the door of the store.
Li Ji, who heard this voice or that title, couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Qingge is here, Brother Wu's mood should be better, right?"
It seems that Li Ji also knows Wu Chengjing's disciple Mu Qingge, and knows that that person is Brother Wu's favorite, and has always been She is treated as her biological daughter.
Sure enough, while Li Ji was thinking, Wu Chengjing had already turned his attention to the door.
Most of the gloom on his face seemed to have dissipated in this moment.
