Chapter 529 Keeping the promise (2
After parting with Ms. Wei, Le Yun walked and ate snacks in her arms. She walked along the street less than two-thirds of the way to the street, and went straight to a teahouse with "Auspicious" written on the banner.
The teahouse is owned by Gu Xiuji's family. Standing at the door is Mr. Ji's guard Ji Yi. When he saw the little girl walking over leisurely, he couldn't help but want to hold his forehead. The little girl really knows how to enjoy life!
You must know that the young master of their family, oh, to be precise, said "Biyun Dan" intentionally or unintentionally on the day he beat the little girl at Sanweixuan. Her status in the ancient cultivator family or sect has once again skyrocketed to a higher level. The young masters or young masters of all the families sent her messages, hoping to make an appointment for the little girl to enjoy the scenery, drink tea and travel around the mountains and rivers during the May Day holiday. However, she disappeared again, leaving everyone to secretly speculate.
When the little girl came out of the water again, she was the first one to make a date with Enoch of the Ji family last year. Not to mention them, even the heads of the old family were overjoyed to hear the news and strictly ordered them to respect the little girl. Don't neglect others.
To be honest, Ji Yi and his brothers wanted to cry violently for three days. With the little girl's status as a fairy doctor, who do you think would dare to disrespect her?
Even if he is jealous of her, he will not openly neglect her.
His mind was just wandering, and the little girl was already in front of him. Ji Yi bent down slightly: "Welcome, our young master is waiting for the little beauty upstairs."
"I've kept you waiting for a long time." Le Yun immediately felt that the attitude of Master Ji's personal bodyguard had changed a little compared to before, and seemed to be more...respectful.
"Our young master has just arrived." Ji Yi modestly led the little girl into the teahouse.
In the era of limited information, teahouses were once the busiest places. In the era of network information, teahouses have become a quiet place to cleanse the soul.
Ji's teahouse is the same as the old teahouse on the street. It is a brick and wood structure from the Zhu Ming Dynasty. Go up the thick, faded pine board stairs to the second floor and you will see the whitewashed wooden windows with beautifully carved wooden windows. Pasted with paper and gauze, there are also improvised works by literati and elegant guests on the walls, and the quaint charm will last forever.
Ji Yi led the distinguished young guest to the elegant seating room painted with lotus flowers. He knocked on the door three times and the door opened from the inside. Ji San Ji Si stood guard on both sides of the door and respectfully invited the little girl to come in.
The elegant room is very elegant. There is a screen door to block the entrance. Behind the screen is the elegant seating area. There is a small tea cabinet for tea sets, a piano stand, a rack for hanging clothes, vases and bonsai. There is a small coffee table near the window. On both sides of the coffee table A mat was spread, and a thick carpet was laid on the mat.
At the host's seat, Mr. Ji knelt down on the mat in ancient rituals. When he heard footsteps, he looked sideways and saw the little girl in a purple spring dress coming in. Her handsome face was full of smiles: "Little beauty, Good morning.”
"Master Ji, it's almost noon, okay." Turning around the screen, Le Yun saw the handsome and handsome face of Master Ji who was sitting on his knees. She couldn't help but her eyelids trembled slightly. That guy is really handsome!
"It's best around noon. It's appropriate to eat right after drinking tea." Ji Shao smiled and straightened his back, making a gesture to sit down.
"I haven't seen you, but you treat me to dinner so frequently. The Tuhao family is different. I always feel that there is no place to spend the money."
Le Yun walked to the back of the mat facing the host and took off her shoes. Thanks to her good physique, she didn't have athlete's foot. Even if she had athlete's foot, with this ancient sitting posture, if she had athlete's foot, she wouldn't be able to make people run away as soon as she took off her shoes.
He took off his shoes, walked onto the mat, and sat down on his knees next to the coffee table, sitting upright and not crooked. He took off the backpack in front of him and put it aside.
The little girl complained that they were too generous in sending invitations, Ji Shao’s noble smile, and which of the treasures of the Guwu family’s sect would not be attracted by Biyun Dan? No one wants to fall behind, so there is no need to rush.
Before Ji Yi accompanied the little guest upstairs, he also informed the tea boys to serve tea. He followed up in the private room and stood behind the little girl to serve her at any time. Ji Er and Ji San were still guarding the door.
The tea boy also followed closely, bringing snacks and tea sets, a small clay stove for brewing tea, tea fruits including Sixi dried fruits and four plates of snacks. The tea was this year's new tea, Mingqian Ziyang Maojian.
The aroma of the snacks and the sweetness of the tea go hand in hand, just right.
The tea boy presented snacks and tea and quietly left the private room. Ji Sanji closed the door and Ji Yi took over the tea making work and refilled the tea for the young master and the little girl.
After slowly drinking three cups of tea, Le Yun said she was too tired to sleep. She had also drank several cups of tea at Si Hai Lai Ke Tea House before, but now she pretended to be elegant. Her belly was full of water. If she took a picture, she would probably be able to hear it. The sound of water.
"Master Ji, the weather is so beautiful, let's talk about something pleasant. Why did you date me last year?
As for outings, forget it, I have been assassinated frequently recently. If I go out to enjoy the scenery and I am followed and assassinated, it will affect my good mood. ”
The little girl was assassinated again?
Ji Yi and the others moved their eyelids slightly. It is possible that the appearance of the Immortal Medical Sect has endangered certain people or sects, causing some people to be unable to sit still and take action frequently.
"The little beauty was assassinated again?" Ji Shao was surprised. Which sect could not tolerate the reappearance of a fairy doctor?
"Well, a few days ago, I went to the western suburbs to look for some medicinal materials and was assassinated twice. Based on the frequent assassinations, I thought that if I invited a group of friends to go on an outing, they might be happy to give me a big gift. Let’s have it in one pot.”
"Is it an ancient martial arts sect or an ordinary assassination?"
"Both."
"Little beauty, it seems someone is jealous of you."
Mr. Ji held his head, the little girl was assassinated twice within a week of her disappearance, which shows that the people who wanted her life wanted to kill her quickly.
"I am born with a body that attracts hatred, and I always attract jealousy for no apparent reason."
Le Yun shrugged her shoulders and expressed her innocence. Who did she offend? She was hated by Zhang Jing's mother and daughter when she was young. She was hated by her classmates when she was studying. Her jealousy towards her always came out of nowhere.
"Little beauty, there is nothing to say. Anyone who assassinates you will poison you to death." Ji Shao felt that the words of the old ghost hand were very good, and all the poisonous incidents were settled once and for all.
"Yeah, that's what I think too. If anyone wants to touch me, I'll kill them without mercy and use them as a test subject to test the power of corpse powder."
Ji Shao made a gesture of covering his eyes: "Little beauty, one day I accidentally offend you, please be merciful. Don't throw anything at me that can turn a corpse into water, let alone ruin my handsomeness." His handsome face, I still need to rely on it to find a wife.”
The Fourth Guard: "..." Wow, the young master has refreshed their outlook on things.
"That's okay. I'll keep your face for you and turn all the flesh below your neck into water. A skeleton with its head attached to the bones is quite beautiful."
"It's so cruel. I need a cup of tea to calm down."
A layer of goosebumps appeared on Mr. Ji's back. The little girl was really fierce. She didn't realize that the scene was bloody. He, a grown man, found it scary just thinking about it.
The little girl had bright eyebrows and a bright smile. Ji Shao had a cup of tea and signaled Ji Er to present something.
After receiving the instruction, Ji Er ran to the counter and took out a package wrapped in red silk. He knelt down beside the young master and sat down. He moved the tea aside, opened the package, took out the wooden boxes and placed them one by one on the young master. On the table in front of the Lord.
There are three sandalwood boxes, one large and two small. They are made of oak, even if they are not top-grade precious wood, they are elegantly shaped and carved with fine patterns.
Ji Shao opened the box himself. One box contained four gold bars, and another box contained an exquisitely crafted pure gold pot inlaid with gems. The largest box contained a set of exquisite tea sets made of pink hibiscus stone, and one pot came with four pieces. cup.
"A wine jug from the time of Trajan in ancient Rome, an ancient Ceylon hibiscus stone tea set?"
Le Yun was surprised that what the young master of the Ji family brought was a real ancient treasure. The pure gold pot was a handicraft from the most glorious period of ancient Rome, with exquisite craftsmanship.
Ancient Roman art during the Golden Age was the most imaginative and creative, creating countless sculptural treasures that are still impressive today.
The tea set is made of fine hibiscus stone.
The best hibiscus stone comes from ancient Ceylon. Pink hibiscus stone is a very rare material even in ancient Ceylon. Even if hibiscus stone is found in other countries, its texture is not that pure.
"The little beauty is indeed a connoisseur of antiques with a fiery eye."
Mr. Ji was once again impressed by the little girl's knowledge. She could accurately identify the origin of the collection at just a glance without holding it in her hands. This skill is probably beyond the reach of even ancient collectors.
He pushed the boxes one by one to the side of the coffee table facing the little girl: "This is one of the Ji family's collections. Use this as a medical fee."
“Where are the people who need medical attention?”
Le Yun looked at the tea set with stars shining in her eyes. Gu Zhen, wow, her aura is very strong. For its sake, the Ji family's consultation was accepted!
"Still in Qin Province, where the family lives." Ji Shao replied feeling slightly embarrassed.
Le Yun raised her eyes slightly: "You inform people to come to Beijing. I will be in Beijing during the holidays in early May. After that, I will go out to look for medicine. I can't find it even if I try to find it."
"Here, could you please help me, little beauty, to move to Ji's home in Qin Province for a medical visit someday? The Ji family will be responsible for travel safety and transportation expenses." Mr. Ji hesitated before he embarrassedly asked for someone to go see a doctor.
"Isn't the person who needs medical treatment an elder of the Ji family who is the treasure of the house?"
"Exactly." The little beauty guessed it, and Mr. Ji didn't hide anything and told him frankly: "The person who needs medical treatment is a senior member of the Ji family. Because he is the treasure of the house, he should not travel far and should not be known to others. I know, I would like to ask the little beauty to move to Qin Province for medical treatment.”
"This is a bit difficult," Le Yun spread her hands in embarrassment: "I have a full schedule from September this year, and Qin Province is not on my itinerary, so I don't have time to go to Qin.
The Ji family can wait. I will make a visit in late September this year. If the Ji family cannot wait, please find someone else. Don't delay the best time to seek medical treatment. ”
"Seniors of the Ji family have been ill many years ago. In the past few months, it will not be too late to go to the Ji family after the little beauty has finished her work."
"Don't be in a hurry. I will accept this consultation. I like this tea set. If I can't do anything after the consultation, you collect the medicinal materials and I will help you refine the furnace medicine. The tea set will be considered as my hard work.
Let’s talk about it first, it’s not high-level elixirs like Biyun Dan, it can only help refine the middle-level elixirs in the furnace. elixirs like Biyun Dan are too labor-intensive, and the tea set is not enough to pay for the hard work. ”
"Don't worry, little beauty. The medical fee is the fee for asking the little beauty to make a visit. No matter whether the little beauty can cure the senior of our family, there is no need to refund it. If the little beauty can cure the senior of the family, the medical fee will be replenished if the consultation fee is not enough."
Ji Shao smiled brightly: "Little beauty, can I ask what kind of rare treasures are needed to ask you to help refine Biyundan?"
"Biyun Dan is a medium-difficulty elixir among high-level elixirs. It is not a top-level elixir, but the steps are the most complicated and take at least a month. Therefore, the only way to ask me to refine Biyun Dan is with the South China Sea Millennium Jasper. The Phoenix Tail Bamboo is a treasure that can be used both as medicine and as a rare treasure. Ordinary rare treasures cannot impress me.”
"Then, if it is about five thousand years old rhinoceros horns, bronzes and pottery from the Yin and Shang dynasties, oracle bone inscriptions from the Ji Zhou dynasty, the paper book "Spring and Autumn" from the Liu Han dynasty, a thousand-year-old Tai Sui, and a luminous pearl, can the little beauty be tempted?"
Master Ji said the same thing, Le Yun blinked her eyes, and when he finished, her eyes were watery: "Master Ji, is it all or one or two of them?
If it is all, the rhino horns are white rhinoceros horns, and the paper books are original. You can consider it if the owner has the elixirs and medicinal materials. If the owner does not have the elixirs and medicinal materials, four taels of cotton - no need to discuss. ”
Mr. Ji sweatdropped in his heart: "Little beauty, five thousand years of rhino horn is not as precious as the Phoenix tail bamboo?"
"Of course," Le Yun nodded seriously: "There is no comparison between the two. A rhinoceros cannot live for five thousand years, and it is impossible for your family's predecessors to catch a rhinoceros that actually lives for a thousand years.
The five thousand years you are talking about refer to the rhino horns that have survived for five thousand years from the hands of our predecessors. Although such rhino horns are precious, they are far less than the Jasper Phoenix Tail Bamboo that has been reproduced since ancient times.
After all, the Phoenix tail bamboo is a living creature, a real treasure that has lived for thousands of years. Its spirituality is not a little bit stronger than that of rhinoceros horn. ”
"It seems that my family's chips are not enough."
Even if he didn't want to admit it, Mr. Ji had to admit that the little girl was right. The Ji family's rhino horns were indeed rhino horns that had been collected for thousands of years, not rhino horns that had lived for five thousand years.
"Indeed. If it is a five-thousand-year-old unicorn horn or a dragon horn, then that is enough."
"That kind of thing is no longer an exotic treasure."
"The unicorn horn is a spiritual object, transcending the treasures of the world. The dragon horn is still an example of a rare treasure. It has been a dragon for five hundred years, but the dragon can still be found."
"Little beauty, does anyone know who has a dragon horn?"
"I don't know who has a dragon horn hidden in someone's house. I know there is a python that is about to turn into a dragon, but I won't hurt it.
People practice for immortality, and dragons practice for immortality. All things have spirits, and spiritual objects do not harm humans and animals. People have different intentions when they see treasures, and those who kill spiritual objects indiscriminately will be punished by God. ”
"I know someone's dragon horn, but it's a pity that they won't give it to me equally." Ji Shao touched his chin: "Little beauty, if you add a cart of gold, silver and jewelry to what I said, mutton fat jade, jade and jade jewelry, etc. One hundred catties, is that enough chips?”
"Gold, silver and jewelry are just worldly things."
"How about adding another book called "The Book of Changes" written by my Ji family ancestor?"
"Which dynasty is the manuscript from?"
"About the Eastern Dynasty of Liu Han, hand-copied paper."
"That is, the manuscripts after papermaking technology matured. Paper books are precious, but they are still not as good as the simple books before paper was invented.
If the owner has elixirs and medicinal materials, he can accept the entrustment to refine the medicine. If the owner does not have elixirs, there is no need to discuss it. ”
"What about the remaining side?"
"No need to discuss." Le Yun firmly refused: "Whether it is a residual prescription or no prescription, there is no need to discuss it, unless his family has some rare treasure in the world.
To be honest, there are not many treasures in this world that really make me crazy. The Ji family can make me willingly help with the prescription, unless it contains one of the nine ancient cauldrons.
Even if the Ji family has one of the nine cauldrons, they will not exchange it for a prescription. After all, the cauldron can be passed down from generation to generation. A furnace of Biyun Pills will not exceed thirty-six pills, but it can only buy a dozen people a hundred years of life. Why? It doesn't even make sense. ”
"The Ji family does not have Jiuding. There are only a few bronze cauldrons of the same era as Siyang Fangzun. The Ji family has a bronze cauldron and asked the little beauty to fill the prescription. Can you consider it?"
"Unless that cauldron can be used as a medicine stove and win my heart, the missing medicinal materials in the prescription that needs to be repaired are limited to ten flavors. If it exceeds ten flavors, no need to worry."
Le Yun was unmoved by the bargaining chip offered by Ji Shao. Biyundan was considered a tasteless elixir among the immortal cultivating sects long ago, and high-level ancient cultivators disdained it.
After hundreds of years, the modern environment has changed greatly, and it is difficult to cultivate immortality and martial arts. For the ancient martial arts sect, Biyun Dan is an extremely important elixir.
Three pills can buy a person a hundred years of life. An old man who takes one pill can intimidate him for hundreds of years and ensure his family's prosperity for hundreds of years. A batch of dozens of pills can buy a family a thousand years of stability.
Relatively speaking, it is extremely cost-effective to give up a bronze tripod and several treasures in exchange for Biyun Pill and prescriptions.
"Little beauty, how about this? When the little beauty goes to Ji's house for medical treatment in September, we can take a look at Ji's collection and prescriptions in person."
"That's not bad. After all, I have to go to Ji's house after receiving the diagnosis. It's not too late to discuss it after seeing the actual products and prescriptions."
"In this case, the Ji family is waiting for it."
"Easy to say."
Le Yun was beaming with excitement about the admission fee, whether it was gold bars or not, they would definitely become food for the little fox in the future. After the spiritual energy on the tea sets and gold pots were absorbed by the space, they would become her collection.
She had no more than three boxes to pack, so she simply left the backpack unstuffed, covered all the boxes, and wrapped them into one package.
The little girl relaxed, and Ji Shao secretly relaxed. The elders in the family asked him to ask the immortal doctor to help him repair the prescription and refine the medicine at any cost. Even if the little girl did not agree now, there was still room for negotiation, and he finally paid off. Entrusted by the elders.
The young master of the Ji family, the four great kings, have always been doing their own thing quietly. When the young master and the girl from the immortal doctor's sect were discussing a deal, even if they didn't look away, their ears were very high. When they heard the little girl's words, Relenting, they secretly let out a big sigh of relief.
The Ji family should be the first Guxiu family to talk to the little girl about asking her to help make medicine. With their jewels in the forefront, if the price offered by other families is worse than theirs, the little girl will definitely not choose anyone else over them.
Unless someone else offers far more than they can impress the little girl.
But that doesn't matter, the little girl won't go to Ji's house until September, and Ji's family can still increase their chips.
The box on the table was removed, Jiyi made tea again, and the tea was replaced with Mingqian Longjing.
After drinking a few more cups of tea, Mr. Ji sent the little girl away. They wanted to treat the little girl to a meal, but the little beauty had a dinner party at noon. They couldn't let her break the agreement. They ended the tea date happily and let the little girl go to the dinner date. .
