Brother, don't make trouble if you lose your memory
Work related
In cold sweat, I recited the "Great Compassion Mantra" silently.
Lin Jichuan, who ran out to look for Ren Yichen and Lin Cai that day, found the two unconscious in a dead end, and reported to the government when he brought them home, and took Lian Jing's body away.
The sword left at the scene was handed over.Lin Jichuan asked Lin Cai and Ren Yichen afterwards, and both said they had no memory.
"I guessed right, she should have used something like insanity to control people's minds." Lin Jichuan and Ren Yichen squatted under the osmanthus tree and ate watermelon in a disfigured manner.Lin Cai sat in the shade and shook his fan, he couldn't understand: "Ah? Then why did she seduce me and uncle?"
Lin Jichuan answered while taking the time to wipe Ren Yichen's mouth: "Planting blame and blame! She took that fish to pretend to be a monster. Your uncle has no memory, and he carried a tree on his body." Bodhi tree is the best candidate."
Ren Yichen took a few bites of the melon and handed it to Lin Jichuan: "You eat."
Lin Jichuan looked at him with a half-smile: "Well, you know how to give way. You were never so noble before!"
Ren Yichen was not very happy after hearing what he said, no matter how he heard it, he felt that his former self was a very annoying person!
The passing ceremony is scheduled to be held in seven days.
Youtan Sanfansheng temporarily stayed in Lin's mansion for the Dharma conference. He was very busy these few days. He had to go to the homes of needy families in Qingyun Town to pray for them. When he came back, he stared at Lin Ji with resentful eyes Chuan, seeing him terrified.
"Master, tomorrow will be the ceremony of salvation." A few people sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air after dinner, and Lin Jichuan poured tea for You Tanfan in a doggy manner. just go."
Lin Jichuan said haha: "Don't, I still want to spend a few more days with the master, to discuss Buddhism and so on..." He coughed in embarrassment after receiving Utanfan's silent gaze: " I see, master, you are a noble person with many things. But, about my junior brother's numerology, can you explain it to me again?"
You Tanfan nodded, and said: "As long as you can get the three red carps that were transformed by Ren Yichen's fortune-telling and put them in the life-binding ball, he can restore his memory."
Lin Jichuan asked: "Who is that Cui Yicang?"
After thinking for a while, You Tanfan said: "He claims to be from an organization called Hengsha Guming, which specializes in buying people's fortunes, fates and fates. Cui Yicang is the one who is responsible for buying fortunes."
"If ordinary people sell all their numerology, they will lose their existence in the world. But selling a section probably won't make any difference. For example, if you are destined to be an official or something, if you sell the numerology of being an official, then of course there will be no There is another chance." You Tan Fan said.
"Hengsha's life? Why have I never heard of such a legend in the martial arts world of Dongsheng Shenzhou?" Lin Jichuan asked puzzledly: "Which continent does he come from? Dongsheng Shenzhou? Nanbuzhou? Beijulu Zhou? Xiniu Hezhou? Which country are you from?"
You Tanfan shook his head: "I don't know. They seem to appear in any country on any continent, and their whereabouts are very elusive."
"Hmm. It's really difficult to hide and disappear." Lin Jichuan took Ren Yichen's peeled walnuts and stuffed them into his mouth.
Youtan Fansheng pondered for a while, then suddenly said: "I seem to have a little impression of the soul-hunting technique she used."
Lin Jichuan came alive: "Where have you seen it?"
"In recent years, there has been a rumor circulating in the martial arts——Dongxiang Yangui." You Tanfan flipped the wick in the lantern, startling a few moths fluttering at the lantern, and the courtyard suddenly brightened up a lot.
Ever since he settled down in Qingyun Town, Lin Jichuan never went out of his way.At this moment, he only frowned and asked: "Dongxiang, the country of thousands of lakes? I have never been there."
You Tanfan said: "So you haven't heard of it. The legend is very famous in Dongxiang. As long as you are the one who is going to be killed by Dongxiang Yangui, you will never escape." Lin Jichuan sneered: "It's so amazing? Do you know who is next to me? The pinnacle of swordsmanship in the martial arts world of Dongsheng Shenzhou!" Youtan Fansheng glanced at him: "You should say, it used to be."
"Okay, okay. Go ahead and talk about that Dongxiang flamboyant ghost." Lin Jichuan patted Ren Yichen's hand away, preventing him from putting walnut kernels into his mouth: "Peel it yourself, I won't eat it."
"According to a person who successfully escaped from the clutches of the Dongxiang Yangui, the reason those people could not avoid being killed was because the Dongxiang Yangui knew how to inspirit and use silver bells to seduce souls. And that person happened to be deaf." Youtan Fansheng stopped and took a sip of tea before continuing: "So I think that person should be her—Dongxiang Yangui."
"The person who escaped didn't see Dongxiang Yangui's true face, but only saw her wearing a bright red blood-like skirt with a long hem, like a red carp."
Ren Yichen, who was peeling walnuts, raised his head, his face turned pale.

☆、Chapter 8
Lin Cai asked his father very painfully: "Does it have to be like this?"
He was wearing a scribbled white cassock and a silly Buddha hat. Lin Jichuan couldn't breathe with a smile on his face.
"Okay, darling, doing meritorious deeds with the master is accumulating blessings for yourself!" Lin Jichuan comforted his son back: "Master, I will trouble you."
Youtan Fansheng resisted not hitting him, and silently motioned Lin Cai to follow him to Lianfu.In fact, Buddhism also advocates violence. Youtan Fansheng recalled that his brothers and sisters almost tore off the roof of the Great Sun Hall during a fight, so he chose to recite the "Heart Sutra" to himself.
When he brought Lin Cai to Lian Mansion, it was already surrounded by townspeople.Youtan Fansheng managed to get out of the crowd, and when he got to the throne, his body was already covered with makeup and powder.Lin Cai's Buddha hat was torn off, and his long hair was tied on top of his head, like a straw nest.
After sitting down on the throne, Youtan Fansheng glanced at Lin Cai worriedly, looked around at the kneeling townspeople, and began to chant scriptures.
On the other side, Lin Jichuan took Ren Yichen to the yamen, intending to ask about the annihilation of Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall.
When several officials saw Lin Jichuan coming, they still chatted with him very enthusiastically.When Lin Jichuan mentioned the matter of Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall 17 years ago, an elderly official patted his head and said, "I know, I know! I just took office that year, so let's discuss this together." It's been a hot news for a while!" Lin Jichuan gently held Ren Yichen's hand, and asked with a smile: "Brother Ma, can you tell us in detail? I suspect that what happened in Qingyun Town recently is not the same as that land line back then. It doesn't matter."
Hearing what he said, the official said immediately: "Oh! I feel that the ground veins have not been cleaned up! Oh Daoist Lin, I am not saying that your method is not good, I mean," he stopped, He lowered his voice: "The girl from Lian's family still has her soul lingering! But now Master Youtan Fansheng has come to rescue her, so it should be all right now." Lin Jichuan could only ask: "Then what happened to Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall?"
Ma Guancha looked around for a while, and then said: "Hey, this matter has something to do with the royal family. We ordinary people shouldn't talk too much, but we all think it's really strange!"
He paused, and said: "The Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall is the leading pharmacy in our Qingyun Town. The doctors in the Ren's family are skilled in medicine and reasonable in medicine. They have never cheated the villagers. The arrest warrant said that the Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall sold the court ladies not abortion pills but abortion pills, which almost killed the emperor's heir! But the Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall has been in business for two or three generations, how could it be possible to make such a mistake? This is a matter of life and death!"
Ren Yichen gasped in pain, and leaned his head on Lin Jichuan's shoulder, and Lin Jichuan immediately stroked his head.Several officials looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one dared to say anything.Lin Jichuan asked again: "Then the Ren clan was hastily exterminated like this? How did the emperor conclude that the abortion medicine came from the Ren clan's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall?"
Ma Guancha said: "I checked the account book, it is clearly written on it, one set of anti-abortion medicine and one set of abortion medicine." Lin Jichuan asked, "There are two sets?"
"Yes. But since we found out that abortion pills were sold, it's useless to explain. However, I heard that the boss of Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall once complained that it was a woman who bought the abortion pills. But the abortion medicine was sold to a man. Hey, no matter how much I say, the Ren family is still implicated." Ma Guancha said with emotion: "No one dared to tear down the shop of the Ren's traditional Chinese medicine hall, so it was left in a wasteland I really saw his building collapsed!"
Lin Jichuan shook Ren Yichen's hand and turned his head to ask him, "Are you okay?" Ren Yichen didn't speak, but just nodded.
After bidding farewell to the officials, the two slowly walked out of the yamen holding hands.Lin Jichuan bought a bag of sugar-fried chestnuts for Ren Yichen on the street, peeled them one by one for him to eat, and suddenly sighed: "Why do I feel like I have raised a son again!"
After Ren Yichen lost his memory, he had a good conscience, so he gave half of the chestnuts to him.
The three-day puja was suspended at noon, and Utan Fansheng and Lin Cai retreated to the Buddhist temple to rest.
"I figured it out. It turns out that being a monk is so tiring!" Lin Cai held a teapot and kept pouring water, and he took a breath when his stomach was full.Youtan Fansheng had a pale face, which looked particularly painful: "What kind of prejudice do you have against our Buddhist sect?"
At this moment, a young monk knocked on the door and came in, clasped his hands together and said, "Master, there is a female lay disciple looking for you outside."
Youtan Fansheng thought about the enthusiasm of the girls and women in Qingyun Town, and suddenly felt horrified: "Uh, I'll go there right away." He sighed, and walked away with a worried face.
Lin Cai climbed onto the bed with her round belly, planning to take the opportunity to take a nap.
Walking out of the door, Youtan Fansheng went to the backyard according to the instructions of the little novice.In the distance, there seemed to be a woman in a green dress and a green skirt, standing with her back under a tree.
Youtan Fansheng walked over a few steps, cleared his throat and asked: "This female benefactor..."
The woman in Tsing Yi turned around, and Youtan Fansheng could only hear the crisp ringtone in her ears.
"Master!" The little novice knocked on the door several times, and had no choice but to go into the room by himself, and said, "Master, the afternoon puja has begun—"
However, only Lin Cai fell unconscious on the bed in the room.
Lin Jichuan originally planned to go to the Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall with Ren Yichen, but Lin Cai rushed to stop them like a cat with its tail scorched, saying, "Master is gone!"
"Oh, don't worry about one or two!" Lin Jichuan lamented.
According to the little novice, the woman in Tsing Yi was wearing a curtain. He didn't see her face, but only remembered that woman's posture was light and graceful, and her voice was deeper and hoarse than that of ordinary women.
Youtan Fansheng disappeared, and the puja could not be suspended, so the Buddhist temple had to recruit a few higher-level practitioners to support the scene.But when the monks came back, they all cried and the women at the Dharma meeting started to protest when they saw that they were not Youtan Fansheng, and even threw them off their thrones.
"Let's go to the backyard and have a look." Lin Jichuan said.
This Buddhist temple is not too big, but the backyard is a quiet place.Several luxuriant trees, a small river flowing through the Buddhist temple, and several futons for people to rest.The little monk pointed to one of the trees and said, "She was standing here at that time."
Lin Jichuan walked under the tree, looked at the almost flat sand and exclaimed, "It seems that she is very thin!"
Lin Cai rolled his eyes at him: "Why don't you say that his lightness kung fu is really good?" Lin Jichuan salivated, "How could I have my lightness kung fu? Your uncle kicked out my lightness kung fu!"
At this time, Ren Yichen suddenly let out a huff, walked to the open space under the tree, squatted down to look, and asked, "The color of the soil here is different."
Lin Jichuan also squatted down to study for a long time, and said, "It's strange, it's not soil." He spread the pinch of debris on his hands and sniffed, and suddenly said, "I know, it's rosin!"
Lin Cai asked suspiciously, "Rosin? Why rosin?"
Lin Jichuan seemed to think of something: "Generally only people who play the piano will carry rosin with them to wipe the strings." He stood up and clapped his hands: "Leave this alone, if that person is her, it's because I don't want Fa Will it continue to take away Utan Fansheng?"
Lin Cai hugged his arms and muttered, "Isn't there no way to save the dead souls like this?"
After bidding farewell to the monks in the Buddhist temple, the three of them headed home.Lin Jichuan thought of the unfinished sugar-fried chestnuts, and took out the bag from his arms and handed it to Lin Cai who hadn't eaten since morning.
Lin Cai looked and looked at it in disgust, and finally took it and ate it.
"Youtan Fansheng, that little boy, don't worry about him, maybe one day he will come back by himself and announce his disobedience!" Lin Jichuan smiled treacherously, and threw a candied chestnut high, almost smashing it to his own face.
"I said, is the 'she' you've been discussing all this time the Dongxiang Yangui? Is she really a murderer?" Lin Cai asked.
Lin Jichuan thought for a while and said, "Probably, she is the most likely. But I just want to get that fish back from her now. As for the grievances between her and the Lian family, we can't control it." , I can’t control it anymore.” He stuffed the cold chestnut into Ren Yichen’s mouth, and the latter just chewed silently.
The sky is dark, the Lin Mansion is in the south of the town, and the Buddhist temple is in the north of the town.When they walked to the east of the town, they suddenly saw an unusual orange light shining far from the sky.
After a moment of silence, Lin Jichuan suddenly said, "Yeah? That direction over there seems to be the cemetery of Qingyun Town!"
The author has something to say: I found that I have a bit of a fan filter for Youtan Fansheng... In fact, he is really not very good (. I feel like I have been slapped in the face 2333
☆、Chapter 9
The townspeople in Qingyun Town all said that Qingyun Town is really guilty of Tai Sui recently!
In fact, the fire didn't burn much, it just burned the ancestral grave of Lian's family.Lin Jichuan stood with his arms folded and watched from a distance, and sighed: "Women are really scary!" Lin Cai gave him a sideways look.
They watched the Lian family's cemetery turn into scorched earth again, and they stopped talking.
At this time, a townsman picked up a bunch of things from the soil, and said in surprise, "Isn't this a Buddhist bead?" Hearing this, Lin Jichuan rushed over like flying, and snatched the burned string from him. Semi-black sandalwood beads.
"It's the Buddhist beads of Youtan Fansheng!" he said.
The Buddhist beads were taken home by Lin Jichuan.
"Do you think Master is still alive..." Lin Cai asked hesitantly.Lin Jichuan played with the string of Buddhist beads for a while, and thought for a while: "This is her warning. She will completely destroy the Lian family, and anyone or anything that stops her will be eradicated. But I think Utan Fansheng should now It is safe, but it may not be in Qingyun Town anymore."
Lin Cai wondered, "Then where can he go? Dongxiang Yangui will never send him back to the Holy Buddha Heaven."
Lin Jichuan put down the beads, stared at the water lily planted in the yard and said, "Dongxiang?"
The next day, Lin Cai was slightly ill, so Lin Jichuan had no choice but to take him to the town's clinic to see a doctor.
Since the accident in Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall, the only medical clinic in the town has disappeared, and the townspeople can only go to the nearest Bixia Town to see a doctor.At any rate, a new medical clinic finally opened here a few months ago, and the townspeople no longer have to travel long distances.
There was a long queue in front of the medical hall, and there seemed to be more people visiting the doctor recently.
The three members of the Lin family also took their number plates and stood under the tree to wait. Lin Jichuan was really bored, so he pulled out a hairpin and painted on the sand.Lin Cai held the copy of "Mencius" and flipped through it for a while, then began to look around again, and quietly tugged on Lin Jichuan's sleeve and said, "I'm going to the latrine." Lin Jichuan nodded.
Lin Cai ran to a nearby hut, hurried in to solve his own problems, let out a sigh of relief after feeling refreshed, and walked out refreshed and lifted his pants.
"Wow!" He was so frightened that he almost dropped his pants as soon as he left the latrine!
An exquisite black carriage was parked next to the hut, there was no one around, only the curtains were blown by the breeze, erratic and strange.
Lin Cai was shaking like a sieve, and moved his steps with a pale face, trying to bypass the carriage and run out.
At this moment, the curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted from the inside——
Half of an indistinguishable androgynous face, yes, only half, and the other half covered with a terrifying mask of evil spirits.The young man who got off the sedan chair was dressed in black clothes with red glaze patterns that looked outrageously luxurious, wearing a jade pendant and black hat, and his peach blossom eyes were fixed on Lin Cai.
"Do you have the beads on you?" he asked.
Lin Jichuan, whose legs were numb from squatting for a long time, wiped the hairpin on Ren Yichen's body, and put it back into his hair: "Xiao Cai, did you fall into the latrine?" Ren Yichen looked at the hairpin in his hand vigorously. With a glance at the number plate, he pointed to the hospital.
"Stop queuing, follow me to the latrine to find him, maybe he forgot to bring the toilet paper!" Lin Jichuan said.
When they came to the hut, Lin Cai was nowhere to be seen.Focusing on the hut, he searched a few places but couldn't find him, Lin Jichuan kept sighing: "I was wrong, I really shouldn't have let him go to the hut alone!" He said and squatted down under the tree next to the hut , Ren Yichen squatted after seeing this, but he suddenly raised his head and let out an ah.
"Silver bells?" Ren Yichen climbed up the tree trunk with his arms in his arms, and finally plucked off the delicate string of silver bells.Lin Jichuan looked at it again and again, picked it up and shook it again: "Could this be the silver bell used by Dongxiang Yangui to perform the soul-hunting technique?" He put the silver bell on his body, thought for a while and said: " In my opinion, I still have to go to Dongxiang!"
Dongxiang, the land of thousands of lakes, is located at the southernmost tip of Dongshengshenzhou. The climate is humid and hot, with abundant precipitation. There are many rivers and lakes in the country, which are rich in rice and freshwater. Therefore, it is also known as the land of fish and rice in Dongshengshenzhou.
As soon as they said they would leave, Lin Jichuan and Ren Yichen went home and quickly packed their bags, preparing to rush to the post station outside the town to hire horses.
Lin Jichuan asked his junior: "Before you leave, do you want to take a look at Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall?"
Ren Yichen was silent for a while, then nodded.
Carrying their burdens on their backs, the two came to the shop of Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall, which had already been overgrown with weeds.The plaque covered with spider silk is engraved with the four characters of "Miaoshouhuichun", but things are different and people are different.
Walking into the spacious and sparse lobby, you will be faced with neat rows of chests of drawers, with yellowed stickers on them, and the names of various traditional Chinese medicines are written in different categories.
Walking to the counter, Ren Yichen saw that the straw paper wrapped with medicine, weighing scales, medicine twisters, and ink pens were all available, and they had not been taken away. They still kept their original appearance, just for people to look at. It's just more worrying.He touched those old and yellowed utensils, and felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
Lin Jichuan touched here, looked there, walked behind the counter, and found several dusty booklets from the cabinet.Patting the ashes on it, he opened one and read it: "Is it an account book... Hey, the medicinal material purchase list." He went to another one: "Credit records." Several books were read by him hastily After a glance, he didn't become interested until he saw the last thin booklet: "Surgery? Wow, junior brother, your family is really powerful."
It was a booklet recording the surgical operations performed by the Ren’s Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall on the patients’ bodies. Lin Jichuan flipped through it from beginning to end, his eyes fixed on a short passage: “The mothers of the Sun’s family in Zhenbei who had dystocia, took babies by Caesarean section. He looked down again, and there was a small note next to the text of the operation on the woman with dystocia: "The laparotomy performed is Jiushi laparotomy."
"Jiushi?" Lin Jichuan thought for a while in his mind, and felt that he had never heard of it.But this is normal, he is not a medical student.
At this time Ren Yichen came over and asked him: "It's almost noon, are you going to go?" Lin Jichuan nodded.
When they arrived at the post station, they bought two horses, led them out of the town, and came to the nearest Fancheng.
Fancheng is located in Youfu County of Daqi. It is the most concentrated area of literati and scholars in Daqi. The atmosphere is open, and there are many exotic customs different from the Central Plains.
The streets of Fancheng are broad and prosperous, and there are many jade towers.On the flower beds on this side of the street, there are blond and blue-eyed dancers with enchanting postures slowly turning their slender waists. If you look at them with seductive eyes, your bones will be softened.There are Ge curtains hanging in the three-story pavilion over there, and you can faintly hear the gentle female voice playing the pipa and singing famous poems that Daqi is familiar with.Vendors on the street also sell exquisite goods from various countries in Dongsheng Shenzhou. Occasionally, treasures are traded across continents, which are hard to find.
Lin Jichuan sighed while looking at it: "Junior brother, this Fancheng is simply a fairyland on earth! I think how about resting here for a night?" Ren Yichen led the two horses, feeling as if he was cheated by the Lin family's father and son. .
At night, when the lights are on, Fancheng is even busier than during the day.Lin Jichuan and Ren Yichen were full, and were sitting by the window of the restaurant drinking tea slowly.
"Are you used to drinking tea too?" Lin Jichuan asked looking at the busy traffic downstairs.
Ren Yichen snorted, he thought the tea tasted pretty good.
Lin Jichuan said: "Hey, junior brother, you have really changed a lot. I hope you can stay like this forever." He looked at Ren Yichen and smiled: "You don't know you used to... Anyway, I think you were I really hate me! How good it is now, I don't have to worry about how to please you."
His eyes reflected the drunkenness of Fancheng, and he saw Ren Yichen's heart directly.
"I...I didn't." Ren Yichen muttered.He wanted to explain uneasily, but found how feeble his words were.
Lin Jichuan stopped looking at him, and still rambled: "Actually, I really want to tell you about the life of the three of us, the master and the apprentice, so that you can know what kind of person you were before. That irresponsible old man, now that I think about it, it should be me who made the biggest contribution to your growth!" Ren Yichen listened quietly, and then held his hand.
Glancing at the blue shirt on Ren Yichen's body made out of snowy plum lantern branches, Lin Jichuan turned his head out of the window and said, "I still like to see you in white...Huh?!"
He stood up abruptly, and the cups on the table fell to the ground with a clatter, and people around him cast suspicious glances.Ren Yichen saw that half of his body was about to lean out, and hurriedly wanted to pull him back.But following Lin Jichuan's gaze, he also paused.
A strange black carriage was parked downstairs, Lin Cai was tied up, and a young man in black whose face could not be seen was dragging him into the carriage.
Lin Jichuan scolded Gou Niang, threw the cup and ran downstairs.Ren Yichen hurried to check out with his purse.
"A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands!" Lin Cai almost wanted to die!
Since he was kidnapped by this young man in black, not only did he not eat a sip of water or food, but the man threatened to beat him up if he cursed. Fortunately, Lin Cai tried his best to protect his face, so his handsome face was preserved. .
The black carriage does not need a groom, and the two horses pull it automatically and go away.Lin Cai was lying on the floor of the car, with the boy's foot on his back.
He had been hungry for a long time, and his voice was a little weak: "Why did you arrest me? You searched everything, I don't have what you want!"
The young man ignored him, holding a piece of steaming rose cake, carefully lifted half of the mask, and ate it bite by bite.
Lin Cai's stomach growled, he swallowed calmly, and moved to the boy's side.
He half pouted his buttocks, rubbed his body with his knees little by little, and while the young man was concentrating on eating rose cakes, he suddenly rushed over, trying to knock him unconscious with his iron head!
But he didn't calculate the height he was at, so he didn't succeed in the attack as he wished, instead he fell headlong into the opponent's arms!
Lin Cai was sweating coldly, barely supporting his body with one hand, he just wanted to speak, but found the boy glaring at him.
Looking down, Lin Cai saw that his hand was pressing between the opponent's legs.
He scratched subconsciously, and suddenly felt something was wrong.
"You... eunuch?" Before Lin Cai could finish speaking, he was kicked away by a heart-warming foot!
☆、Chapter 10
Fancheng at night is extremely lively, and a newly opened makeup club in the west of the city is holding its first song and dance performance.
In a corner away from the stage, the boy in black held Lin Cai tightly with one hand, and dragged him to an unobtrusive seat and sat down.
Lin Cai's chest was bruised from being kicked by him just now, now she was standing beside him with her brows furrowed and her chest shrunken.
A young man in royal blue attire at the next table looked at Lin Cai with disdain, waved the white jade fan in his hand pretentiously, and said loudly to his companion: "Hey, what's going on with this Jinshilou, what is it? They were all let in. I think this place is just like that, so let’s come here less often.”
Hearing this, the young man turned his head and gave the man a cold look, who immediately froze in shock.Lin Cai raised his eyebrows at the deflated young master with some complacency.
"What are you doing?" The boy squinted at him, the half of the beautiful peach blossom face and the half of the evil ghost's face contrasted sharply in the dim light, making it even more terrifying: "If you want to sit, sit down and poke here to block the way."
"Oh!" Lin Cai could only sit down next to him, most of his buttocks were still hanging out, ready to take advantage of the chaos to escape at any time.The young man stretched out his hand calmly and pinched his thigh. Lin Cai immediately shrank his legs in pain and approached him obediently.
The stage of this singing and dancing venue is extremely beautifully arranged. 28 red copper palace lanterns with flowers are hung on the ceiling covered with murals of celestial maidens scattered flowers, illuminating the entire stage. The escalators for the actors to appear on the stage are also made of crystal, and even the step-by-step lotus platform is made of gold.Most of the people who came to see the show tonight were playboys and wealthy businessmen, and what they loved was this kind of extravagance that was becoming more and more charming.
At this time, on the stage were twelve young girls in Chinese clothes with thin waists and soft steps, stepping lightly on the lotus platform to perform "Lotus Steps".Lin Cai looked at it for a while, then turned to look at the boy in black, and felt that those girls were not even as good-looking as him.Sensing his gaze, the boy glared at him sullenly.
"Do you like singing and dancing very much? Why did you bring me to see these?" Lin Cai asked.
"The big hermit lives in the city." That's all the boy said.
Lin Cai bit her lip and looked at him indignantly.
"You're annoying," he said.
The young man suddenly laughed when he heard the words, without looking at Lin Cai: "You are not the first person to say that."
Lin Jichuan supported a tree and stood panting, the weird black carriage took Lin Cai around and threw him around, and finally lost him!Ren Yichen was stroking his back to give him comfort, looked at the people passing by around him, and asked hesitantly, "Why don't we find an inn to rest first?"
After his breathing calmed down, Lin Jichuan waved his hand: "It's not too late, let's take a stroll. The city gate has been closed long ago, and unless he can teleport, the sedan chair can't get out." He habitually Holding his chin, he thought and thought, and suddenly got an idea: "The most lively place!"
People were hurrying on the street, and Lin Jichuan grabbed a passerby at random and asked, "My fellow, where are you going tonight?" The man said, "Don't you know? There is a big bonus for the opening, and there will be a song and dance performance! I heard that the boss spared no expense to hire the most famous dancers and luthiers in Dongsheng Shenzhou, but you have to spend money to buy seats, and we ordinary people just listen to the sound outside!"
Lin Jichuan raised his eyebrows at Ren Yichen: "Let's listen to the sound!"
When they came to Jinshilou with the flow of people, they just heard the beautiful singing of singers coming from inside, as sweet as a nightingale.Ren Yichen looked up at the radiant pavilion, while Lin Jichuan looked at the rich and powerful decoration of Jin Shilou and turned his head to leave!
He controlled his stepping out, his eyeballs glanced around, wondering where he should slip in.
Lin Caizheng was knocking on melon seeds boredly, occasionally spitting out the shells with a pooh, squinting at the scene where the sheng and drums were playing together on the stage, he sighed boredly.The young man on the side looked very seriously, without blinking his eyes, and still glanced at Lin Cai from time to time, to prevent him from running away.
Lin Cai was in a hurry, just took out the "Mencius" from his bosom to read, when the young man snorted coldly: "Pretending to be."
"Isn't it okay for me to read the books of sages?" Lin Cai said with a bitter face.
The young man snatched the book away, flipped through it a few times, pointed to the word "Lin Hong" on the title page and asked, "Your name is Lin Hong?" Lin Cai looked at it and said, "No, this is from my father and master. Book. My name is Lin Cai, and my name was also chosen by Master, which means to learn from others.” He asked the young man, “By the way, what’s your name?”
The young man's thin lips were pursed tightly, and the lines of his cheek muscles could be clearly seen, obviously gritting his teeth secretly.
"The heart of a temple is not a temple," he said.
Lin Cai looked at him contemptuously: "How can someone call such a strange name? If you say it is a title, I will believe it. It's fine if you don't say it. Yes, why should I ask the name of the person who kidnapped me!" He took the book Snatch it back and continue watching.The boy also turned his head back, and fell silent while staring at the colorful scene on the stage.
The backyard of Jin Shilou was empty at the moment, and a slender figure was hanging on the wall with difficulty, neither up nor down.
Lin Jichuan rolled his eyes under the wall, his hands stretched in mid-air began to feel sore: "Junior Brother!"
Ren Yichen looked at him apologetically, his legs still tightly wrapped around the wall.Lin Jichuan kept promising: "I will catch you, as long as you let go and let yourself fall!" Ren Yichen also understood this truth, but he was a little dizzy looking at the wall that was two or three meters high.
"I really don't know how you acted aggressively by stepping on the lights at the Thousand Lantern Festival!" Lin Jichuan rolled his arms and walked closer to him: "Okay, let me go!"
Helpless, Ren Yichen had no choice but to turn his body to the side and roll straight down!
After a moment of weightlessness, he was firmly held in his arms.Opening his eyes, Ren Yichen saw Lin Jichuan's gratified smile: "Look, I've already said that I'll catch you....It's so heavy, come down for me quickly."
There is only a hut where sundries are piled up in the backyard, and the sound of singing and dancing from the front hall can be faintly heard.Lin Jichuan looked around and felt that it was safe, so he hurriedly ran to the front yard with Ren Yichen in a sneaky manner.
Probably most of the people in Jinshilou went to work on tonight's song and dance performance, and there was no one on the way.Lin Jichuan was secretly rejoicing when he suddenly heard Ren Yichen let out a small ah.
He followed Ren Yichen's gaze, almost breaking out in a cold sweat.
A white shadow lay across the passage that must be passed not far away, and the person with his head covered his face couldn't see clearly the other person's appearance.Lin Jichuan swallowed, pulled Ren Yichen's sleeve and approached slowly, while going round and round in his mind making up countless excuses for the two of them appearing in the backyard.
"slow--"
If Lin Jichuan had been a cat, the hair on his back would have exploded by now!
The man in white was only a few steps away from them, and he still stood there without moving, but he said, "Did you hear the sound of the piano?"
Lin Jichuan and Ren Yichen looked at each other, wondering if they should answer.
The man didn't wait for them to answer, and continued on his own: "If you hear the sound of the piano, run away." After finishing speaking, he walked away from the two of them lightly.
"There are so many weirdos these days!" Lin Jichuan muttered, "You should run away if you can't hear the sound of the piano in this kind of place." Ren Yichen didn't say anything, and frowned as he looked at the man's back as he left. "Let's go, let's go." Lin Jichuan pulled him and continued to sneak into the front yard.
On the other side of the stage, the originally dazzling and bright palace lanterns were nearly half extinguished, and the fresh petals sprinkled on the glazed bricks on the ground gave off a burst of fragrance, and a strangely shaped piano was brought up.
At the same time, a blond woman with a white veil and only a pair of light gray eyes slowly stepped onto the stage.
She was wearing a simple and elegant dress with pine clouds and flowing water with goldfish patterns, and she only wore an enamel Huasheng in her shining golden hair. Although she didn't show her full face, she seemed to be overwhelmingly beautiful.
Lin Jichuan, who ran out to look for Ren Yichen and Lin Cai that day, found the two unconscious in a dead end, and reported to the government when he brought them home, and took Lian Jing's body away.
The sword left at the scene was handed over.Lin Jichuan asked Lin Cai and Ren Yichen afterwards, and both said they had no memory.
"I guessed right, she should have used something like insanity to control people's minds." Lin Jichuan and Ren Yichen squatted under the osmanthus tree and ate watermelon in a disfigured manner.Lin Cai sat in the shade and shook his fan, he couldn't understand: "Ah? Then why did she seduce me and uncle?"
Lin Jichuan answered while taking the time to wipe Ren Yichen's mouth: "Planting blame and blame! She took that fish to pretend to be a monster. Your uncle has no memory, and he carried a tree on his body." Bodhi tree is the best candidate."
Ren Yichen took a few bites of the melon and handed it to Lin Jichuan: "You eat."
Lin Jichuan looked at him with a half-smile: "Well, you know how to give way. You were never so noble before!"
Ren Yichen was not very happy after hearing what he said, no matter how he heard it, he felt that his former self was a very annoying person!
The passing ceremony is scheduled to be held in seven days.
Youtan Sanfansheng temporarily stayed in Lin's mansion for the Dharma conference. He was very busy these few days. He had to go to the homes of needy families in Qingyun Town to pray for them. When he came back, he stared at Lin Ji with resentful eyes Chuan, seeing him terrified.
"Master, tomorrow will be the ceremony of salvation." A few people sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air after dinner, and Lin Jichuan poured tea for You Tanfan in a doggy manner. just go."
Lin Jichuan said haha: "Don't, I still want to spend a few more days with the master, to discuss Buddhism and so on..." He coughed in embarrassment after receiving Utanfan's silent gaze: " I see, master, you are a noble person with many things. But, about my junior brother's numerology, can you explain it to me again?"
You Tanfan nodded, and said: "As long as you can get the three red carps that were transformed by Ren Yichen's fortune-telling and put them in the life-binding ball, he can restore his memory."
Lin Jichuan asked: "Who is that Cui Yicang?"
After thinking for a while, You Tanfan said: "He claims to be from an organization called Hengsha Guming, which specializes in buying people's fortunes, fates and fates. Cui Yicang is the one who is responsible for buying fortunes."
"If ordinary people sell all their numerology, they will lose their existence in the world. But selling a section probably won't make any difference. For example, if you are destined to be an official or something, if you sell the numerology of being an official, then of course there will be no There is another chance." You Tan Fan said.
"Hengsha's life? Why have I never heard of such a legend in the martial arts world of Dongsheng Shenzhou?" Lin Jichuan asked puzzledly: "Which continent does he come from? Dongsheng Shenzhou? Nanbuzhou? Beijulu Zhou? Xiniu Hezhou? Which country are you from?"
You Tanfan shook his head: "I don't know. They seem to appear in any country on any continent, and their whereabouts are very elusive."
"Hmm. It's really difficult to hide and disappear." Lin Jichuan took Ren Yichen's peeled walnuts and stuffed them into his mouth.
Youtan Fansheng pondered for a while, then suddenly said: "I seem to have a little impression of the soul-hunting technique she used."
Lin Jichuan came alive: "Where have you seen it?"
"In recent years, there has been a rumor circulating in the martial arts——Dongxiang Yangui." You Tanfan flipped the wick in the lantern, startling a few moths fluttering at the lantern, and the courtyard suddenly brightened up a lot.
Ever since he settled down in Qingyun Town, Lin Jichuan never went out of his way.At this moment, he only frowned and asked: "Dongxiang, the country of thousands of lakes? I have never been there."
You Tanfan said: "So you haven't heard of it. The legend is very famous in Dongxiang. As long as you are the one who is going to be killed by Dongxiang Yangui, you will never escape." Lin Jichuan sneered: "It's so amazing? Do you know who is next to me? The pinnacle of swordsmanship in the martial arts world of Dongsheng Shenzhou!" Youtan Fansheng glanced at him: "You should say, it used to be."
"Okay, okay. Go ahead and talk about that Dongxiang flamboyant ghost." Lin Jichuan patted Ren Yichen's hand away, preventing him from putting walnut kernels into his mouth: "Peel it yourself, I won't eat it."
"According to a person who successfully escaped from the clutches of the Dongxiang Yangui, the reason those people could not avoid being killed was because the Dongxiang Yangui knew how to inspirit and use silver bells to seduce souls. And that person happened to be deaf." Youtan Fansheng stopped and took a sip of tea before continuing: "So I think that person should be her—Dongxiang Yangui."
"The person who escaped didn't see Dongxiang Yangui's true face, but only saw her wearing a bright red blood-like skirt with a long hem, like a red carp."
Ren Yichen, who was peeling walnuts, raised his head, his face turned pale.

☆、Chapter 8
Lin Cai asked his father very painfully: "Does it have to be like this?"
He was wearing a scribbled white cassock and a silly Buddha hat. Lin Jichuan couldn't breathe with a smile on his face.
"Okay, darling, doing meritorious deeds with the master is accumulating blessings for yourself!" Lin Jichuan comforted his son back: "Master, I will trouble you."
Youtan Fansheng resisted not hitting him, and silently motioned Lin Cai to follow him to Lianfu.In fact, Buddhism also advocates violence. Youtan Fansheng recalled that his brothers and sisters almost tore off the roof of the Great Sun Hall during a fight, so he chose to recite the "Heart Sutra" to himself.
When he brought Lin Cai to Lian Mansion, it was already surrounded by townspeople.Youtan Fansheng managed to get out of the crowd, and when he got to the throne, his body was already covered with makeup and powder.Lin Cai's Buddha hat was torn off, and his long hair was tied on top of his head, like a straw nest.
After sitting down on the throne, Youtan Fansheng glanced at Lin Cai worriedly, looked around at the kneeling townspeople, and began to chant scriptures.
On the other side, Lin Jichuan took Ren Yichen to the yamen, intending to ask about the annihilation of Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall.
When several officials saw Lin Jichuan coming, they still chatted with him very enthusiastically.When Lin Jichuan mentioned the matter of Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall 17 years ago, an elderly official patted his head and said, "I know, I know! I just took office that year, so let's discuss this together." It's been a hot news for a while!" Lin Jichuan gently held Ren Yichen's hand, and asked with a smile: "Brother Ma, can you tell us in detail? I suspect that what happened in Qingyun Town recently is not the same as that land line back then. It doesn't matter."
Hearing what he said, the official said immediately: "Oh! I feel that the ground veins have not been cleaned up! Oh Daoist Lin, I am not saying that your method is not good, I mean," he stopped, He lowered his voice: "The girl from Lian's family still has her soul lingering! But now Master Youtan Fansheng has come to rescue her, so it should be all right now." Lin Jichuan could only ask: "Then what happened to Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall?"
Ma Guancha looked around for a while, and then said: "Hey, this matter has something to do with the royal family. We ordinary people shouldn't talk too much, but we all think it's really strange!"
He paused, and said: "The Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall is the leading pharmacy in our Qingyun Town. The doctors in the Ren's family are skilled in medicine and reasonable in medicine. They have never cheated the villagers. The arrest warrant said that the Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall sold the court ladies not abortion pills but abortion pills, which almost killed the emperor's heir! But the Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall has been in business for two or three generations, how could it be possible to make such a mistake? This is a matter of life and death!"
Ren Yichen gasped in pain, and leaned his head on Lin Jichuan's shoulder, and Lin Jichuan immediately stroked his head.Several officials looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one dared to say anything.Lin Jichuan asked again: "Then the Ren clan was hastily exterminated like this? How did the emperor conclude that the abortion medicine came from the Ren clan's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall?"
Ma Guancha said: "I checked the account book, it is clearly written on it, one set of anti-abortion medicine and one set of abortion medicine." Lin Jichuan asked, "There are two sets?"
"Yes. But since we found out that abortion pills were sold, it's useless to explain. However, I heard that the boss of Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall once complained that it was a woman who bought the abortion pills. But the abortion medicine was sold to a man. Hey, no matter how much I say, the Ren family is still implicated." Ma Guancha said with emotion: "No one dared to tear down the shop of the Ren's traditional Chinese medicine hall, so it was left in a wasteland I really saw his building collapsed!"
Lin Jichuan shook Ren Yichen's hand and turned his head to ask him, "Are you okay?" Ren Yichen didn't speak, but just nodded.
After bidding farewell to the officials, the two slowly walked out of the yamen holding hands.Lin Jichuan bought a bag of sugar-fried chestnuts for Ren Yichen on the street, peeled them one by one for him to eat, and suddenly sighed: "Why do I feel like I have raised a son again!"
After Ren Yichen lost his memory, he had a good conscience, so he gave half of the chestnuts to him.
The three-day puja was suspended at noon, and Utan Fansheng and Lin Cai retreated to the Buddhist temple to rest.
"I figured it out. It turns out that being a monk is so tiring!" Lin Cai held a teapot and kept pouring water, and he took a breath when his stomach was full.Youtan Fansheng had a pale face, which looked particularly painful: "What kind of prejudice do you have against our Buddhist sect?"
At this moment, a young monk knocked on the door and came in, clasped his hands together and said, "Master, there is a female lay disciple looking for you outside."
Youtan Fansheng thought about the enthusiasm of the girls and women in Qingyun Town, and suddenly felt horrified: "Uh, I'll go there right away." He sighed, and walked away with a worried face.
Lin Cai climbed onto the bed with her round belly, planning to take the opportunity to take a nap.
Walking out of the door, Youtan Fansheng went to the backyard according to the instructions of the little novice.In the distance, there seemed to be a woman in a green dress and a green skirt, standing with her back under a tree.
Youtan Fansheng walked over a few steps, cleared his throat and asked: "This female benefactor..."
The woman in Tsing Yi turned around, and Youtan Fansheng could only hear the crisp ringtone in her ears.
"Master!" The little novice knocked on the door several times, and had no choice but to go into the room by himself, and said, "Master, the afternoon puja has begun—"
However, only Lin Cai fell unconscious on the bed in the room.
Lin Jichuan originally planned to go to the Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall with Ren Yichen, but Lin Cai rushed to stop them like a cat with its tail scorched, saying, "Master is gone!"
"Oh, don't worry about one or two!" Lin Jichuan lamented.
According to the little novice, the woman in Tsing Yi was wearing a curtain. He didn't see her face, but only remembered that woman's posture was light and graceful, and her voice was deeper and hoarse than that of ordinary women.
Youtan Fansheng disappeared, and the puja could not be suspended, so the Buddhist temple had to recruit a few higher-level practitioners to support the scene.But when the monks came back, they all cried and the women at the Dharma meeting started to protest when they saw that they were not Youtan Fansheng, and even threw them off their thrones.
"Let's go to the backyard and have a look." Lin Jichuan said.
This Buddhist temple is not too big, but the backyard is a quiet place.Several luxuriant trees, a small river flowing through the Buddhist temple, and several futons for people to rest.The little monk pointed to one of the trees and said, "She was standing here at that time."
Lin Jichuan walked under the tree, looked at the almost flat sand and exclaimed, "It seems that she is very thin!"
Lin Cai rolled his eyes at him: "Why don't you say that his lightness kung fu is really good?" Lin Jichuan salivated, "How could I have my lightness kung fu? Your uncle kicked out my lightness kung fu!"
At this time, Ren Yichen suddenly let out a huff, walked to the open space under the tree, squatted down to look, and asked, "The color of the soil here is different."
Lin Jichuan also squatted down to study for a long time, and said, "It's strange, it's not soil." He spread the pinch of debris on his hands and sniffed, and suddenly said, "I know, it's rosin!"
Lin Cai asked suspiciously, "Rosin? Why rosin?"
Lin Jichuan seemed to think of something: "Generally only people who play the piano will carry rosin with them to wipe the strings." He stood up and clapped his hands: "Leave this alone, if that person is her, it's because I don't want Fa Will it continue to take away Utan Fansheng?"
Lin Cai hugged his arms and muttered, "Isn't there no way to save the dead souls like this?"
After bidding farewell to the monks in the Buddhist temple, the three of them headed home.Lin Jichuan thought of the unfinished sugar-fried chestnuts, and took out the bag from his arms and handed it to Lin Cai who hadn't eaten since morning.
Lin Cai looked and looked at it in disgust, and finally took it and ate it.
"Youtan Fansheng, that little boy, don't worry about him, maybe one day he will come back by himself and announce his disobedience!" Lin Jichuan smiled treacherously, and threw a candied chestnut high, almost smashing it to his own face.
"I said, is the 'she' you've been discussing all this time the Dongxiang Yangui? Is she really a murderer?" Lin Cai asked.
Lin Jichuan thought for a while and said, "Probably, she is the most likely. But I just want to get that fish back from her now. As for the grievances between her and the Lian family, we can't control it." , I can’t control it anymore.” He stuffed the cold chestnut into Ren Yichen’s mouth, and the latter just chewed silently.
The sky is dark, the Lin Mansion is in the south of the town, and the Buddhist temple is in the north of the town.When they walked to the east of the town, they suddenly saw an unusual orange light shining far from the sky.
After a moment of silence, Lin Jichuan suddenly said, "Yeah? That direction over there seems to be the cemetery of Qingyun Town!"
The author has something to say: I found that I have a bit of a fan filter for Youtan Fansheng... In fact, he is really not very good (. I feel like I have been slapped in the face 2333
☆、Chapter 9
The townspeople in Qingyun Town all said that Qingyun Town is really guilty of Tai Sui recently!
In fact, the fire didn't burn much, it just burned the ancestral grave of Lian's family.Lin Jichuan stood with his arms folded and watched from a distance, and sighed: "Women are really scary!" Lin Cai gave him a sideways look.
They watched the Lian family's cemetery turn into scorched earth again, and they stopped talking.
At this time, a townsman picked up a bunch of things from the soil, and said in surprise, "Isn't this a Buddhist bead?" Hearing this, Lin Jichuan rushed over like flying, and snatched the burned string from him. Semi-black sandalwood beads.
"It's the Buddhist beads of Youtan Fansheng!" he said.
The Buddhist beads were taken home by Lin Jichuan.
"Do you think Master is still alive..." Lin Cai asked hesitantly.Lin Jichuan played with the string of Buddhist beads for a while, and thought for a while: "This is her warning. She will completely destroy the Lian family, and anyone or anything that stops her will be eradicated. But I think Utan Fansheng should now It is safe, but it may not be in Qingyun Town anymore."
Lin Cai wondered, "Then where can he go? Dongxiang Yangui will never send him back to the Holy Buddha Heaven."
Lin Jichuan put down the beads, stared at the water lily planted in the yard and said, "Dongxiang?"
The next day, Lin Cai was slightly ill, so Lin Jichuan had no choice but to take him to the town's clinic to see a doctor.
Since the accident in Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall, the only medical clinic in the town has disappeared, and the townspeople can only go to the nearest Bixia Town to see a doctor.At any rate, a new medical clinic finally opened here a few months ago, and the townspeople no longer have to travel long distances.
There was a long queue in front of the medical hall, and there seemed to be more people visiting the doctor recently.
The three members of the Lin family also took their number plates and stood under the tree to wait. Lin Jichuan was really bored, so he pulled out a hairpin and painted on the sand.Lin Cai held the copy of "Mencius" and flipped through it for a while, then began to look around again, and quietly tugged on Lin Jichuan's sleeve and said, "I'm going to the latrine." Lin Jichuan nodded.
Lin Cai ran to a nearby hut, hurried in to solve his own problems, let out a sigh of relief after feeling refreshed, and walked out refreshed and lifted his pants.
"Wow!" He was so frightened that he almost dropped his pants as soon as he left the latrine!
An exquisite black carriage was parked next to the hut, there was no one around, only the curtains were blown by the breeze, erratic and strange.
Lin Cai was shaking like a sieve, and moved his steps with a pale face, trying to bypass the carriage and run out.
At this moment, the curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted from the inside——
Half of an indistinguishable androgynous face, yes, only half, and the other half covered with a terrifying mask of evil spirits.The young man who got off the sedan chair was dressed in black clothes with red glaze patterns that looked outrageously luxurious, wearing a jade pendant and black hat, and his peach blossom eyes were fixed on Lin Cai.
"Do you have the beads on you?" he asked.
Lin Jichuan, whose legs were numb from squatting for a long time, wiped the hairpin on Ren Yichen's body, and put it back into his hair: "Xiao Cai, did you fall into the latrine?" Ren Yichen looked at the hairpin in his hand vigorously. With a glance at the number plate, he pointed to the hospital.
"Stop queuing, follow me to the latrine to find him, maybe he forgot to bring the toilet paper!" Lin Jichuan said.
When they came to the hut, Lin Cai was nowhere to be seen.Focusing on the hut, he searched a few places but couldn't find him, Lin Jichuan kept sighing: "I was wrong, I really shouldn't have let him go to the hut alone!" He said and squatted down under the tree next to the hut , Ren Yichen squatted after seeing this, but he suddenly raised his head and let out an ah.
"Silver bells?" Ren Yichen climbed up the tree trunk with his arms in his arms, and finally plucked off the delicate string of silver bells.Lin Jichuan looked at it again and again, picked it up and shook it again: "Could this be the silver bell used by Dongxiang Yangui to perform the soul-hunting technique?" He put the silver bell on his body, thought for a while and said: " In my opinion, I still have to go to Dongxiang!"
Dongxiang, the land of thousands of lakes, is located at the southernmost tip of Dongshengshenzhou. The climate is humid and hot, with abundant precipitation. There are many rivers and lakes in the country, which are rich in rice and freshwater. Therefore, it is also known as the land of fish and rice in Dongshengshenzhou.
As soon as they said they would leave, Lin Jichuan and Ren Yichen went home and quickly packed their bags, preparing to rush to the post station outside the town to hire horses.
Lin Jichuan asked his junior: "Before you leave, do you want to take a look at Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall?"
Ren Yichen was silent for a while, then nodded.
Carrying their burdens on their backs, the two came to the shop of Ren's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall, which had already been overgrown with weeds.The plaque covered with spider silk is engraved with the four characters of "Miaoshouhuichun", but things are different and people are different.
Walking into the spacious and sparse lobby, you will be faced with neat rows of chests of drawers, with yellowed stickers on them, and the names of various traditional Chinese medicines are written in different categories.
Walking to the counter, Ren Yichen saw that the straw paper wrapped with medicine, weighing scales, medicine twisters, and ink pens were all available, and they had not been taken away. They still kept their original appearance, just for people to look at. It's just more worrying.He touched those old and yellowed utensils, and felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
Lin Jichuan touched here, looked there, walked behind the counter, and found several dusty booklets from the cabinet.Patting the ashes on it, he opened one and read it: "Is it an account book... Hey, the medicinal material purchase list." He went to another one: "Credit records." Several books were read by him hastily After a glance, he didn't become interested until he saw the last thin booklet: "Surgery? Wow, junior brother, your family is really powerful."
It was a booklet recording the surgical operations performed by the Ren’s Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall on the patients’ bodies. Lin Jichuan flipped through it from beginning to end, his eyes fixed on a short passage: “The mothers of the Sun’s family in Zhenbei who had dystocia, took babies by Caesarean section. He looked down again, and there was a small note next to the text of the operation on the woman with dystocia: "The laparotomy performed is Jiushi laparotomy."
"Jiushi?" Lin Jichuan thought for a while in his mind, and felt that he had never heard of it.But this is normal, he is not a medical student.
At this time Ren Yichen came over and asked him: "It's almost noon, are you going to go?" Lin Jichuan nodded.
When they arrived at the post station, they bought two horses, led them out of the town, and came to the nearest Fancheng.
Fancheng is located in Youfu County of Daqi. It is the most concentrated area of literati and scholars in Daqi. The atmosphere is open, and there are many exotic customs different from the Central Plains.
The streets of Fancheng are broad and prosperous, and there are many jade towers.On the flower beds on this side of the street, there are blond and blue-eyed dancers with enchanting postures slowly turning their slender waists. If you look at them with seductive eyes, your bones will be softened.There are Ge curtains hanging in the three-story pavilion over there, and you can faintly hear the gentle female voice playing the pipa and singing famous poems that Daqi is familiar with.Vendors on the street also sell exquisite goods from various countries in Dongsheng Shenzhou. Occasionally, treasures are traded across continents, which are hard to find.
Lin Jichuan sighed while looking at it: "Junior brother, this Fancheng is simply a fairyland on earth! I think how about resting here for a night?" Ren Yichen led the two horses, feeling as if he was cheated by the Lin family's father and son. .
At night, when the lights are on, Fancheng is even busier than during the day.Lin Jichuan and Ren Yichen were full, and were sitting by the window of the restaurant drinking tea slowly.
"Are you used to drinking tea too?" Lin Jichuan asked looking at the busy traffic downstairs.
Ren Yichen snorted, he thought the tea tasted pretty good.
Lin Jichuan said: "Hey, junior brother, you have really changed a lot. I hope you can stay like this forever." He looked at Ren Yichen and smiled: "You don't know you used to... Anyway, I think you were I really hate me! How good it is now, I don't have to worry about how to please you."
His eyes reflected the drunkenness of Fancheng, and he saw Ren Yichen's heart directly.
"I...I didn't." Ren Yichen muttered.He wanted to explain uneasily, but found how feeble his words were.
Lin Jichuan stopped looking at him, and still rambled: "Actually, I really want to tell you about the life of the three of us, the master and the apprentice, so that you can know what kind of person you were before. That irresponsible old man, now that I think about it, it should be me who made the biggest contribution to your growth!" Ren Yichen listened quietly, and then held his hand.
Glancing at the blue shirt on Ren Yichen's body made out of snowy plum lantern branches, Lin Jichuan turned his head out of the window and said, "I still like to see you in white...Huh?!"
He stood up abruptly, and the cups on the table fell to the ground with a clatter, and people around him cast suspicious glances.Ren Yichen saw that half of his body was about to lean out, and hurriedly wanted to pull him back.But following Lin Jichuan's gaze, he also paused.
A strange black carriage was parked downstairs, Lin Cai was tied up, and a young man in black whose face could not be seen was dragging him into the carriage.
Lin Jichuan scolded Gou Niang, threw the cup and ran downstairs.Ren Yichen hurried to check out with his purse.
"A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands!" Lin Cai almost wanted to die!
Since he was kidnapped by this young man in black, not only did he not eat a sip of water or food, but the man threatened to beat him up if he cursed. Fortunately, Lin Cai tried his best to protect his face, so his handsome face was preserved. .
The black carriage does not need a groom, and the two horses pull it automatically and go away.Lin Cai was lying on the floor of the car, with the boy's foot on his back.
He had been hungry for a long time, and his voice was a little weak: "Why did you arrest me? You searched everything, I don't have what you want!"
The young man ignored him, holding a piece of steaming rose cake, carefully lifted half of the mask, and ate it bite by bite.
Lin Cai's stomach growled, he swallowed calmly, and moved to the boy's side.
He half pouted his buttocks, rubbed his body with his knees little by little, and while the young man was concentrating on eating rose cakes, he suddenly rushed over, trying to knock him unconscious with his iron head!
But he didn't calculate the height he was at, so he didn't succeed in the attack as he wished, instead he fell headlong into the opponent's arms!
Lin Cai was sweating coldly, barely supporting his body with one hand, he just wanted to speak, but found the boy glaring at him.
Looking down, Lin Cai saw that his hand was pressing between the opponent's legs.
He scratched subconsciously, and suddenly felt something was wrong.
"You... eunuch?" Before Lin Cai could finish speaking, he was kicked away by a heart-warming foot!
☆、Chapter 10
Fancheng at night is extremely lively, and a newly opened makeup club in the west of the city is holding its first song and dance performance.
In a corner away from the stage, the boy in black held Lin Cai tightly with one hand, and dragged him to an unobtrusive seat and sat down.
Lin Cai's chest was bruised from being kicked by him just now, now she was standing beside him with her brows furrowed and her chest shrunken.
A young man in royal blue attire at the next table looked at Lin Cai with disdain, waved the white jade fan in his hand pretentiously, and said loudly to his companion: "Hey, what's going on with this Jinshilou, what is it? They were all let in. I think this place is just like that, so let’s come here less often.”
Hearing this, the young man turned his head and gave the man a cold look, who immediately froze in shock.Lin Cai raised his eyebrows at the deflated young master with some complacency.
"What are you doing?" The boy squinted at him, the half of the beautiful peach blossom face and the half of the evil ghost's face contrasted sharply in the dim light, making it even more terrifying: "If you want to sit, sit down and poke here to block the way."
"Oh!" Lin Cai could only sit down next to him, most of his buttocks were still hanging out, ready to take advantage of the chaos to escape at any time.The young man stretched out his hand calmly and pinched his thigh. Lin Cai immediately shrank his legs in pain and approached him obediently.
The stage of this singing and dancing venue is extremely beautifully arranged. 28 red copper palace lanterns with flowers are hung on the ceiling covered with murals of celestial maidens scattered flowers, illuminating the entire stage. The escalators for the actors to appear on the stage are also made of crystal, and even the step-by-step lotus platform is made of gold.Most of the people who came to see the show tonight were playboys and wealthy businessmen, and what they loved was this kind of extravagance that was becoming more and more charming.
At this time, on the stage were twelve young girls in Chinese clothes with thin waists and soft steps, stepping lightly on the lotus platform to perform "Lotus Steps".Lin Cai looked at it for a while, then turned to look at the boy in black, and felt that those girls were not even as good-looking as him.Sensing his gaze, the boy glared at him sullenly.
"Do you like singing and dancing very much? Why did you bring me to see these?" Lin Cai asked.
"The big hermit lives in the city." That's all the boy said.
Lin Cai bit her lip and looked at him indignantly.
"You're annoying," he said.
The young man suddenly laughed when he heard the words, without looking at Lin Cai: "You are not the first person to say that."
Lin Jichuan supported a tree and stood panting, the weird black carriage took Lin Cai around and threw him around, and finally lost him!Ren Yichen was stroking his back to give him comfort, looked at the people passing by around him, and asked hesitantly, "Why don't we find an inn to rest first?"
After his breathing calmed down, Lin Jichuan waved his hand: "It's not too late, let's take a stroll. The city gate has been closed long ago, and unless he can teleport, the sedan chair can't get out." He habitually Holding his chin, he thought and thought, and suddenly got an idea: "The most lively place!"
People were hurrying on the street, and Lin Jichuan grabbed a passerby at random and asked, "My fellow, where are you going tonight?" The man said, "Don't you know? There is a big bonus for the opening, and there will be a song and dance performance! I heard that the boss spared no expense to hire the most famous dancers and luthiers in Dongsheng Shenzhou, but you have to spend money to buy seats, and we ordinary people just listen to the sound outside!"
Lin Jichuan raised his eyebrows at Ren Yichen: "Let's listen to the sound!"
When they came to Jinshilou with the flow of people, they just heard the beautiful singing of singers coming from inside, as sweet as a nightingale.Ren Yichen looked up at the radiant pavilion, while Lin Jichuan looked at the rich and powerful decoration of Jin Shilou and turned his head to leave!
He controlled his stepping out, his eyeballs glanced around, wondering where he should slip in.
Lin Caizheng was knocking on melon seeds boredly, occasionally spitting out the shells with a pooh, squinting at the scene where the sheng and drums were playing together on the stage, he sighed boredly.The young man on the side looked very seriously, without blinking his eyes, and still glanced at Lin Cai from time to time, to prevent him from running away.
Lin Cai was in a hurry, just took out the "Mencius" from his bosom to read, when the young man snorted coldly: "Pretending to be."
"Isn't it okay for me to read the books of sages?" Lin Cai said with a bitter face.
The young man snatched the book away, flipped through it a few times, pointed to the word "Lin Hong" on the title page and asked, "Your name is Lin Hong?" Lin Cai looked at it and said, "No, this is from my father and master. Book. My name is Lin Cai, and my name was also chosen by Master, which means to learn from others.” He asked the young man, “By the way, what’s your name?”
The young man's thin lips were pursed tightly, and the lines of his cheek muscles could be clearly seen, obviously gritting his teeth secretly.
"The heart of a temple is not a temple," he said.
Lin Cai looked at him contemptuously: "How can someone call such a strange name? If you say it is a title, I will believe it. It's fine if you don't say it. Yes, why should I ask the name of the person who kidnapped me!" He took the book Snatch it back and continue watching.The boy also turned his head back, and fell silent while staring at the colorful scene on the stage.
The backyard of Jin Shilou was empty at the moment, and a slender figure was hanging on the wall with difficulty, neither up nor down.
Lin Jichuan rolled his eyes under the wall, his hands stretched in mid-air began to feel sore: "Junior Brother!"
Ren Yichen looked at him apologetically, his legs still tightly wrapped around the wall.Lin Jichuan kept promising: "I will catch you, as long as you let go and let yourself fall!" Ren Yichen also understood this truth, but he was a little dizzy looking at the wall that was two or three meters high.
"I really don't know how you acted aggressively by stepping on the lights at the Thousand Lantern Festival!" Lin Jichuan rolled his arms and walked closer to him: "Okay, let me go!"
Helpless, Ren Yichen had no choice but to turn his body to the side and roll straight down!
After a moment of weightlessness, he was firmly held in his arms.Opening his eyes, Ren Yichen saw Lin Jichuan's gratified smile: "Look, I've already said that I'll catch you....It's so heavy, come down for me quickly."
There is only a hut where sundries are piled up in the backyard, and the sound of singing and dancing from the front hall can be faintly heard.Lin Jichuan looked around and felt that it was safe, so he hurriedly ran to the front yard with Ren Yichen in a sneaky manner.
Probably most of the people in Jinshilou went to work on tonight's song and dance performance, and there was no one on the way.Lin Jichuan was secretly rejoicing when he suddenly heard Ren Yichen let out a small ah.
He followed Ren Yichen's gaze, almost breaking out in a cold sweat.
A white shadow lay across the passage that must be passed not far away, and the person with his head covered his face couldn't see clearly the other person's appearance.Lin Jichuan swallowed, pulled Ren Yichen's sleeve and approached slowly, while going round and round in his mind making up countless excuses for the two of them appearing in the backyard.
"slow--"
If Lin Jichuan had been a cat, the hair on his back would have exploded by now!
The man in white was only a few steps away from them, and he still stood there without moving, but he said, "Did you hear the sound of the piano?"
Lin Jichuan and Ren Yichen looked at each other, wondering if they should answer.
The man didn't wait for them to answer, and continued on his own: "If you hear the sound of the piano, run away." After finishing speaking, he walked away from the two of them lightly.
"There are so many weirdos these days!" Lin Jichuan muttered, "You should run away if you can't hear the sound of the piano in this kind of place." Ren Yichen didn't say anything, and frowned as he looked at the man's back as he left. "Let's go, let's go." Lin Jichuan pulled him and continued to sneak into the front yard.
On the other side of the stage, the originally dazzling and bright palace lanterns were nearly half extinguished, and the fresh petals sprinkled on the glazed bricks on the ground gave off a burst of fragrance, and a strangely shaped piano was brought up.
At the same time, a blond woman with a white veil and only a pair of light gray eyes slowly stepped onto the stage.
She was wearing a simple and elegant dress with pine clouds and flowing water with goldfish patterns, and she only wore an enamel Huasheng in her shining golden hair. Although she didn't show her full face, she seemed to be overwhelmingly beautiful.
