Chapter 11 Stay in the store
The "Youpeng Yuanlai" inn is the largest inn in the capital. According to legend, Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, wandered to the north of the capital and received the favor of a bowl of rice from the innkeeper. Therefore, when Emperor Taizu ruled the world, he gave the inn owner a gold plaque and wrote a letter - friends came from afar. I wish this store "it's a pleasure to have friends from afar."
And the innkeeper got this plaque and used flowers to offer Buddha to change the name of his inn to "Youpeng Yuanlai" inn. At this point, the inn has become famous all over the world. After Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, moved the capital to Beiping, he changed the name of Beiping to "Beijing" and built Shuntian Mansion. In his spare time, he came to this inn from time to time. As a result, the business of the inn is booming day by day.
Zhang Zixuan doesn't like it too much, and he doesn't want to enjoy it. It's just that "friends coming from afar" is indeed the gathering place of the three religious and nine streams in the capital. It is easiest to collect the information you want and live here.
As soon as I entered the inn, I smelled a burst of hustle and bustle. The guests at the banquet were full, either chivalrous, or politician, or cloth, or Hongru. For a moment, it was lively and loud. However, everyone's eyes are more or less erratic, and they look around from time to time, which seems to be extremely cautious.
"Yo! Two masters, two ladies! Are you sharp? Or stay in the store?" A shopkeeper dressed in green clothes saw four people coming in and hurriedly greeted them.
Zhang Zixuan looked at the second child in front of him. Although he was just a subordinate, his whole body was clean without any dirt, which made Zhang Zixuan feel that it was a wise move to choose to come to this place to rest. Thinking about this, he was still proud.
"Hmm! Open four rooms with a more elegant environment!" With that, Zhang Zixuan took out three thousand taels of silver tickets from Xu Mi and handed them over. At this time, the shopkeeper was stunned first.
In fact, Zhang Zixuan is not to blame. He is simple and has never suffered, and believes that money is something outside his body. Second, he really has no idea about money. He doesn't know that these three thousand taels are enough to cover the whole inn for a day.
"Ah? Well, how many days will the guest stay? Seeing that Zhang Zixuan was generous, Xiao Er guessed that it must be the prince of a famous family. Anyway, there were more such people in the capital, so Xiao Er was naturally not surprised.
"At present, it is not known. What? Is this money not enough? Zhang Zixuan took out another five or six silver tickets and handed them to Xiao Er: "Are these enough?"
"This...this..." Xiao Er didn't know what to say. This is the first time this situation has happened. Some people around also noticed Zhang Zixuan's behavior and secretly paid attention to this mysterious teenager.
Among their group, Di Zhong, the only one who knew the market, was also confused by Zhang Zixuan's behavior. Unable to figure out the situation, he had to stand aside without saying anything, and Le Tian, like Zhang Zixuan, was born for the first time, and he couldn't figure out what the price was, let alone the two strange beasts next to him.
Just when several people were in a dilemma, the shopkeeper finally appeared. It turned out to be a young man in black with a smile. If he hadn't been standing on the edge of the tent, watching the settler settle accounts, and the people who came and went had to say hello to him, Zhang Zixuan would not have dare to connect him with the owner of the store.
"Dare to ask Brother Tai what do you have?" The young shopkeeper asked Zhang Zixuan. Just now, he saw Zhang Zixuan take out a banknote, and he didn't know the rest.
Zhang Zixuan also saluted, "You're welcome! If you are not good at learning, how dare you teach? It's just that the second brother didn't know why he gave him a silver ticket but didn't want it. Is the room in your store full?
The shopkeeper whispered a few words in the young man's ear. The young man nodded to the young man and said, "Okay, go ahead!"
If these people are not isolated from the world for a long time, they will deliberately come to find faults. If you don't give him a room at a price today, you really can't get off the stage. The shopkeeper thought about it and said, "Well, Brother Meng doesn't give up. We really have a room here. Please follow me."
With that, he turned around and was about to lead the way. But I heard the Le Tian's delicate voice and said, "Huh? We want four rooms! Where can I live in a house?
"Miss doesn't know that it's not so much a room as a courtyard. Just come with me!" The shopkeeper had seen some scenes and didn't look at Le Tian at all.
Zhang Zixuan nodded to Le Tian, and then walked in with the shopkeeper, and Le Tian and others immediately followed.
"The shopkeeper, you said that the young owner would not take them to the 'Tian' room, did you?" When the shopkeeper went away, the little man just hurriedly asked the settler, "That's where the emperor came to live today!"
Mr. Accountger raised his head and touched his beard, pouted his mouth, and said with some disdain, "Little third son, I think you are crazy! Even if Hao Shenxian is dedicated to the hall, the young master dares not let him enter the day's room! Although the emperor has only been here once, it is your majesty after all!"
"It's true! I guess it's Hao Shenxian's 'di' word room!" The little third son took a breath, and then lowered his voice and said, "But I think Hao Xian is more powerful than the emperor!"
As soon as the settler heard this, he immediately put down his pen and abacus and said, "Little third son, don't figure out the idea of the young master when you have nothing to do. If you have nothing to do, you should work more. This is the right way. The young master naturally has his own idea to do this! Go ahead."
After saying that, he picked up the abacus and brush, calculated the account, leaving only a blank third son.
At this time, Zhang Zixuan and four others also walked into a different garden behind the inn with the shopkeeper.
As soon as they entered the yard, Zhang Zixuan and others saw many flowers and plants, and there were about hundreds of kinds of flowers and plants. Osmanthus, **, begonia, lily, big flower orchid, Wenxin orchid is even mixed with some flowers that do not bloom in autumn, such as beauty, roses, feng feng , tulips, etc. The competition is colorful and gorgeous. Several people have been in the ghost valley for so long, and it is not necessarily that so many kinds of flowers are open together.
The shopkeeper was so happy to see several people that he couldn't help but be a little proud: "There is a magic array in this courtyard, which is called: like a spring array. It is the big array made by Hao Fan and Hao Xian, the elder of the palace. Therefore, the whole yard is warm and comfortable, and any flowers can bloom in it. The shop will also send a special person to water and take care of it every day. It also invites a professional flower master to trim it to ensure that every pot of flowers is the best in Beijing and even the world.
"And the furniture in the room, because it was originally to make something unique and unique, so that it was full of wooden supplies, without any other materials. That said, it is full of rare wood, such as old mahogany, agarwood, lobular red sandalwood and so on. Even the chopsticks are made of black bamboo, which is known as the first hardwood in the world!"
"Oh! So that's it!" Zhang Zixuan didn't care much about this. At this time, when he saw the shopkeeper boasting, it was not easy to spoil his fun. He had to smile and say, "No wonder this 'friends come from afar' inn is called the first inn in the world!" There are so many mysteries hidden!"
"Where is it? So, are you satisfied?" The shopkeeper listened to Zhang Zixuan's praise, and his heart rose: "If you are still satisfied! Then please stay for a few days and make do with it.
Seeing that this place is indeed quiet and elegant, and there is no noise, Zhang Zixuan immediately settled down: "Where is it? If this is still a condescending, isn't there no good place to live that day?
"Good! In that case, I won't disturb a few people's rest, so I'll leave first! If you have anything to ask, just call me!" The shopkeeper saluted the four of them one by one, and then retreated.
"Well, I wanted to share a room with Le Tian and Tian Xue, and I have the same room with Di Zhong. But now that it's so big here..." Zhang Zixuan looked around. Indeed, this courtyard is surprisingly big. It is estimated that it is not a problem to live with dozens of people. Even those thousand pots of flowers can also be regarded as a small garden.
"Di Zhong, I want to take this opportunity to teach you a set of skills. You see, I'm willing to live alone. I'll teach you during the day. Or do you want to live with me and study day and night?" Zhang Zixuan didn't know whether Di Zhong was eager to practice, so he had to ask.
"Thank you for your grace!" Seeing that his efforts were finally recognized by Zhang Zixuan, Di Zhong couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Of course, the apprentice is willing to live with the master!"
Zhang Zixuan nodded and said, "That's good. Tianer, Tianxue, you two make your own decision. I'll teach Di Zhong Gong first.
After saying that, he took Di Zhong to the room near the gate of the other courtyard in the east. After closing the door, Zhang Zixuan took out a crystal clear small bag and handed it to Di Zhong: "Take it."
Di Zhong looked at it doubtfully. It turned out to be the beard made of ice silk! He quickly stepped back two steps and said in horror, "The apprentice dare not accept this heavy gift! I hope the master can take it back.
Seeing the situation, Zhang Zixuan took a few steps forward, stuffed the Xu Misheng into Di Zhong's hand and said, "Just because he is a master, how can he not give the apprentice a gift? What's more, this Xumi is also made of the ice silkworm king silk you gave me. If you don't accept it, my master will be too inferior.
Di Zhong held Xu Mi in his hand tightly, and his excited voice trembled a little. He knelt down on the ground with his legs: "Thank you, Master!"
Zhang Zixuan quickly picked him up and said, "Di Zhong, although I have not been with you for a long time, I know you. I only have one thing to say to you - don't be too persistent. It's not impossible to whisper and be brave because of revenge, but you have to be clear that you are also a man! You can try to accept this big world, do you understand?"
Di Zhong suddenly shocked and looked up at Zhang Zixuan, but saw a light in Zhang Zixuan's eyes, which shot straight into his heart. He was in a trance for a while and still fell down. Zhang Zixuan held him and then put him on the big ** of red sandalwood. A trace of divine consciousness condensed in his hand and pressed it between Di Zhong's eyes.
The picture flashed by, and the tragic bloody pattern flashed in Zhang Zixuan's mind in an instant. Zhang Zixuan withdrew his palm, frowned and said secretly: Unexpectedly, what Di Zhong experienced was ten thousand times more miserable than what Elder Lv said. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to let go, but if he doesn't let it go, there will be many difficulties in the future.
Zhang Zixuan thought of the Prajna Heart Sutra. When he was a child, he was very naughty and had a bad temper. Therefore, every time Lefeng saw him naughty or lose his temper, he punished him for reciting the Prajna Heart Sutra a hundred times, so he was very impressed. So far, there is still a trace of Buddha's spirit in his heart. Therefore, Zhang Zixuan immediately decided to teach Di Zhong's Prajna Heart Sutra first.
But I just wanted to wake up Di Zhong, but when I saw Di Zhong sleeping, I couldn't help laughing and thought: Let him sleep first! I haven't seen him rest for a long time! I'd better do my thing first!
Thinking of this, he smiled, and then quietly walked out and gently pulled up the carved old mahogany door. But at this moment, a figure fell from the air and fell on Zhang Zixuan's shoulder in the blink of an eye.
"Feng Cheng? What are you doing?" Zhang Zixuan was a little strange. Feng Cheng rarely stayed quietly beside him. What's going on this time?
Feng Cheng chewed a red peach in his hand and said vaguely, "Cut! I don't know you yet? What? I want to break into the blood collection hall alone!"
Hearing this, Zhang Zixuan quickly put his index finger on his lips, "booed", and then said in a low voice, "Do you want to bring them all out?"
Feng Cheng threw the peach core far away: "It's okay if you don't say it, take me there!"
After listening to this, Zhang Zixuan knew what Feng Cheng meant. He never thought that Feng Cheng, who was the most unintentional, was the person who knew his heart best! He sprouted in his heart and casually said, "Fengcheng, we will be brothers all our lives!"
"The victory over the Buddha is on the top! Of course we are! Fight to defeat the Buddha!" Feng Cheng laughed, and tears came out of his face. Under the shining of the broken sun, he dazzled a layer of golden yellow.
"Watch and help each other, never leave and never give up. One person is in trouble..." The two said this at the same time, and suddenly stopped looking at each other: "Two people support!"
After saying that, one person and one monkey laughed at the same time, and then quickly covered his mouth.
