Chapter 5 Tao Ran Residence
Dianhua walked to the table, lifted the red cloth on the tray, picked up the golden token and observed it.
The front of the token is carved with an attic. You can clearly see the plaque hanging on the door of the attic with three seal characters: "Collection Pavilion", and the door is engraved with a large "Ling".
There is an eagle's head on the upper half of the back of the token, and there is a mark on the left side of the lower half: "Jishui Qishi." There are two small words written on the bottom line on the right: "Sanwu."
"Three-Wu?Three-Wu? Number? It seems to be a number."
"This token is not a gold. Gold is not that hard. It should be an alloy of some kind, right?"
Is there any alloy in ancient times? Dianhua didn't have much research on metals, and he couldn't see any reason, so he stopped studying tokens.
He put down the token, took out a silver ingot from the ten silver ingots, looked at it for a moment in the candlelight, and was amazed in his heart: "Is this the ancient ingot? Is this the one below the official seal?"
With the candlelight, Dianhua read it word by word: "The Qi Family Kiln in Jishui."
"It's not an official seal? It's a private seal of the Qi Mansion!" Dian Hua recalled the original owner's memories of this fraud and the Qi Mansion and Master Qi.
The original owner was young and energetic, talented, and arrogant. Although he had just started his career, he disdained to deceive those mud-legged or ordinary merchants, hoping that the target of cheating was a wealthy family with a certain social status, and he needed a gorgeous performance.
When the original owner settled in Jishui County, he happened to see the reward order for the strange man to catch ghosts and eliminate spirits hanging on the bulletin board of Qi Mansion. He had an idea and thought that God gave him a good opportunity. He was preparing to investigate his own knowledge and his enemy and pretended to be an immortal master and entered Qi Mansion to cheat.
The Qi family of Jishui is a powerful family in Jishui County. It has a very powerful force here. It can be said to be a famous local local snake. This Qi Mansion is the main mansion of the Qi Mansion. Qi Ren, the head of the Qi Mansion, is the contemporary head of the Qi Mansion. It is rumored that Qi Ren is humble, thoughtful, and has a good reputation.
However, the original owner started to investigate from Xia Jiuliu, who had an intersection with the Qi Mansion, and found that Qi Ren's true nature was far from what was rumored outside. He was cruel and decisive, harsh and domineering, and unscrupulous. He was not a good person to be with him. If he was exposed by Qi Ren, he would never leave the Qi Mansion alive and would definitely be beaten to death by sticks.
The original owner was really "a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger". He knew the danger and still did not give up. He naively thought that with his ability, he would never be exposed. Unexpectedly, there was a ghost! Before he could be exposed, he was killed by a sneaky man, and the pigeon Smida.
...
With the help of the fairy sword, the ending of "Evil Spirit Killing" has passed. Now it depends on how to deceive Qi Ren and avoid the ending of "Rank Killing".
"Wait... I'm not a liar now. I'm an immortal master who really owns the fairy sword. That sneaky one has been removed by me! So, the ending of "Killing Sticks" has been solved by me by accident?"
"In other words, I'm not in danger now?" Thinking of this, Dian Hua smiled relaxedly.
I suddenly felt something wrong while smiling: "The sequelae of my physical and mental incongruity seems to be cured!"
Dian Hua's body did not enter the role of "Immortal Master" just now. Dian Hua said whatever he wanted and did what he wanted.
"Is this cured without medicine? Or..." Dian Hua thought that the only difference now is that he is alone now, and there have been outsiders just now.
"If the guess is not valid, you will know after experimenting."
Thinking of this, Dian Hua put down the ingot, opened the door, and said to Qingzhu who was serving outside the door, "I want to take a shower."
But after going out, when facing outsiders, his body and mind were once again inconsistent.
Qingzhu was standing at the door of the bedroom, closing her eyes and pretending to sleep.
"Standing while sleeping" is one of the first things that these servants and maids need to develop. If you cannot hurry up and rest when the master does not need it, how can you ensure that you keep your energy strong when the master needs it?!
Suddenly the bedroom door opened, Qingzhu was startled and woke up immediately. He quickly bowed his body and asked, "Immortal Master, what are you asking?"
Qingzhu, who lowered her head, heard the immortal master say in a unique voice, "Bath."
Qingzhu immediately replied: "Yes, the villain is going to prepare now, and ask the immortal master to wait a moment."
Before Qingzhu finished speaking, she heard the door close again.
Qingzhu looked at Qinghe who was walking through the ear room next to her and said, "The Immortal Master wants to take a bath."
Qinghe nodded, glanced at the bedroom door and said, "You go and prepare, I'm here to wait."
Qingzhu walked out of Taoranju and thought: "This 'immortal master' did not ask me to enter the house across the door and then instruct me to do things, but opened the door and issued orders directly, and then closed the door without waiting for me to bow to the order."
Thinking of the other party's behavior of being disgraceful, he shook his head, hummed, and complained in a low voice: "I really don't understand etiquette!"
After Dian Hua closed the door, he said to himself: "It seems that the sequelae is not cured without medicine, but has triggering conditions."
Now that I am alone, talking to myself in a low voice, there are no sequelae. My body and mind are very harmonious and unified. I say whatever I want to say, and do whatever I want to do.
"The sequelae will only be triggered when there are outsiders, and there is no problem when you are alone. This situation is much better than I thought."
There are eight or nine things that are not satisfactory in the world. When faced with these powerless and impermanent things, all we can do is to maintain an optimistic attitude.
Maybe the next moment, this problem will be solved by itself? It's like "stop killing".
"Before thinking of a cure, try to stay alone. Anyway, before traveling through time, I was a person who likes to read and have a quiet temperament."
Not long after, Qingzhu knocked on the door and directed several strong servants wearing gray linen shirts to carry wooden barrels filled with hot water about one meter high and about one meter in diameter.
After putting the wooden barrels, the strong servants immediately left Dianhua's bedroom under Qingzhu's instructions.
Qingzhu deliberately adjusted her voice and asked, "Immortal Master, do you need to take a bath?"
Qinghe, who was standing outside the door, heard Qingzhu's inquiry, subconsciously frowned, wanting to say something, but the words were still unable to say it. She could only pretend that she had not heard it, stand there quietly, and watch the development of the situation.
Dian Hua heard some contempt and tentative meaning in Qingzhu's tone, and didn't understand why Qingzhu suddenly changed his attitude just now?
Dian Hua didn't understand, so he stopped thinking. Anyway, Qingzhu was just an irrelevant person to him.
"Need not."
After saying that, Dian Hua found that Qingzhu had not left yet. When Dian Hua looked over in surprise, Qingzhu smiled and continued to ask: "Immortal Master, do you need anything else? For example, a bath towel? Soap bean?"
Dian Hua understood that Qingzhu was making things difficult for him in his unique way when serving people.
And I have repeatedly used the same trick to make things difficult for myself.
When I first realized something was wrong with Qingzhu, I ignored him. The other party actually dared to become more aggressive and provoke him again. It was really outrageous.
Dian Hua is usually a person who is "leniency in dealing with others", but if he thinks he is easy to bully, he will know that he is not a person who "repays grievances with kindness" but a person who "complains with straightforwardness".
When Dian Hua was about to fight back, Qinghe couldn't bear to watch it anymore and said, "Qingzhu, go and prepare bath towels and soap beans for the immortal master, and I'll serve you here."
Qingzhu hesitated for a moment, saluted Dianhua, and went out to prepare these things.
Qingzhu whispered when she walked past Qinghe, "Mediating on other people's business!"
Chapter completed!
