Chapter 34: lady vixen

When Zhou Zishu walked into Yinzhuang again, it was not the shopkeeper alone. 

 

A man with a chubby figure and a blessed face heard him coming and strode out. The man narrowed his eyes and his nose, and his face looked like a big white bun steamed from a steamer. Yinzhuang's shopkeeper slightly bowed his waist, followed two steps behind this man, with a very respectful attitude.​​ 

 

When he saw Zhou Zishu, he paused for a moment, and then asked tentatively: Are you ... Lord Zhou? 

Zhou Zishu laughed and said, Why Ping An doesn't recognize me? 

this man was Song Daping, the head of Ping An Bank. Song Ping An was originally a housekeeper on the Nanning Prince's Mansion. When the master died, he came out by himself and relied on little savings to do business for a few years. They have done a great job. 

His industry is found all over the country, and he travels around the year, no one knows where he is. Many merchants know that Song Da is in charge. He is very savvy when it comes to doing business, but he is a rare and unscrupulous person. He is kind-hearted. After one or two visits, his word of mouth is very good, and even the way is broad, and the Song family is flourishing. 

Song Ping'an was very excited and ordered the shopkeeper to close up the shop. He dismissed the young man and cleared the field. He asked Zhou Zishu to sit down and said, The servant was near Yangzhou. When I heard the news, I immediately rushed in, did the people here have been negligent to you. My master has been thinking about you for years! 

Then Ping An lowered his voice: Thank you very much, Mr. Zhou, and concealed the news about my master leaving Beijing all those years, so we have these few years of peace. 

Zhou Zishu took a sip of tea and laughed: It's no trouble at all, is lord seventh faring well? 

Yet he thought in his heart, trouble only stops when your master dies. everyone would be able to live a peaceful life. 

Ping'an laughed: It's so good, so good, thanks to my lord for keeping my master in your thought. yesterday I received a reply from the master saying that he and the witch are coming here, in ten to fourteen days. 

Zhou Zishu heard that his calm face twitched immediately, and his heart said that the Central Plains martial arts was already chaotic enough. The scourge had to come and mix with one foot. It was a bad time. He also said politely, How I trouble lord seventh and the witch? 

Ping'an said: It is nothing, My master has been free with nothing to do after taking up permanent residence at the southern border, and this is the best chance for him to get some exercise. The master has said that he promises my lord all those years ago to find him a beautiful and slender-waist Nanjiang lady to be his wife. 

Zhou Zishu broke out in a sweat and said hastily, I was Just kidding at that time 

Yet He thought in the deserted courtyard the day before, and Wen Kexing solemnly said, I want to live with you forever, and he felt like sitting on a chair underneath him has grown needles. It's so uncomfortable and feels odd all over. 

Ping An exchange with him a few words, and then said the main topic, My lord came to ask about the lapis Armour, and this servant ordered his subordinates to pay attention to any news. These days I know something. Did the lord knows, yesterday a man named Shen Zhan appeared at Dongting with Shaolin reverend and brought a piece of lapis armour? 

Zhou Zishu said: Shen Zhan, the owner of the Shen clan in shushing? 

Ping An nodded: Yes, this person hasn't asked about the world for a long time, but this time suddenly appeared, apparently hearing the news of the Zhang family's tragedy, he couldn't wait. 

Zhou Zishu turned sharply and immediately responded, saying, Yes, the Lu family in Taihang did not leave any sons at first. Only a few apprentices, who were unwieldy, were handed over to the head of Taishan sect leader Hua Fangling. Counting the Zhang family in. ... Can it be possible that the five glazed armors in the legend belonged to the five big families in the past? 

Ping'an said: Zhou Gongzi really could know everything from only a small piece of news. when Shen Zhan appeared, Gao Cheng also acknowledged the presence of a piece of the lapis armour in the Galo family manor. Finally, he reveals the story behind the object. Have you heard of it? Yin Yang Manual; Fengshan Sword Technique and six harmonies cultivation mantra 

Zhou Zishu frowned slightly and nodded: I only heard a little about the manual of yin and yang, I don't know if it is true or false. It is said to be the sacred object of the Valley of Divine Medicine. able to revive the dead and grow flesh from white bones, claimed to heal many ailments. Fengshang sword technique was created by Rong Xuan the peerless expert who tern into the demonic path 30 years ago. The lower scroll is a sword technique instruction, while the theory inscribed in the upper scroll was what he had inferred and adapted for the six harmonies cultivation mantra. passed down from ancient times, There are many missing parts in the six harmonies cultivation mantra, and very obscure and complex, difficult to understand, and one can easily undergo Qi deviation when practicing it but its power is unparalleled. There is no such thing as a competitor in the world that can surpass it. Does Gau Chong mean that the secret of the lapis armour is the two classic manuals that Rong Xuan has left behind? 

Ping An nodded and said, Exactly, according to Gao Xia, Rong Xuan went into the Qi deviation in the past due to grief of losing his wife pain, but it was due to the improper practice that his demonic nature burgeoned afterward. After Rong Xuan died, few of them found lapis armour and saw that the two great skills and the sacred medicine of the Valley of the Holy Medicine 'Yin and yang manual' are contained, but anyone who practiced kungfu could not withstand it. They only thought that this thing was too dangerous, so smacked the lapis armour into pieces, and it was agreed that each of the five families would save one piece, and prevent it from appearing again. 

Zhou Zishu frowned after hearing this, and then nodded very slowly, saying, This is what Gao Chong said? 

Ping'an face said shamefully: This servant's abilities are limited." 

Zhou Zishu shook his head with a smile and said, not even the tian Chuang and the four seasons manor can know the inside story of the tragedy 30 years ago let alone a businessman? It has helped a lot but then, the five big families Holding a piece of glazed armor, what about the Zhao family? Didn't Zhao Jing give a statement? 

Ping An nodded and said, The owner of the Zhao family claimed that the glazed armor of the Zhao family was stolen and was missing. Once he said this, everyone at the scene was about to cause trouble. The head of Huashan seemed to have conclusive evidence, saying It was like Zhao Jingfu swallowed the glazed armor of the Zhang family. The person sent by the slave yesterday said that the head of Huashan and hero Zhan came to blows. 

Zhou Zishu remembered the piece of glazed armor that he saw in the underground cave that day, it is most likely the missing piece of the Zhao family. One of the two who died that night must be the thief, Yu Tianjie or Mu Yunge. Unfortunately, the mantis caught him. After the cicada and the yellow sparrow, a small ghost of the Death Valley got an advantage, and then the lapis armour ended in Wen Kexing's hands by happenstance and then has been stolen by fang buzhi but now fang buzhi has died by the hand of Delighted Morning Ghost ... 

Zhou Zishu just felt uncomfortable like a big rock has been placed in his heart. Could this matter be more complicated? 

Troubled, he bid ping 'An farewell and went back to Zhang Chengling. Zhou Zishu didn't completely trust what Geo Chong has said ...in the past, he had to deal with a lot of true and false news and reported it to the emperor. For one thing, there are often many causes and consequences that need to be verified, and all must not be having any flaw before they dare to submit the information. 

.Therefore, no matter what you hear, you are used to be doubtful and ready to overthrow what you know before. 

After entering the restaurant, he looked up at Wen Kexing and Zhang Chengling and Cao Weining, and Gu Xiang. Zhou Zishu wondered, Why did these four people come together? Later, he found that Zhang Chengling and Wen Kexing each occupied a corner of the table and have a grave expression, not knowing why he came to greet them. Right as he heard Cao Weining air his opinion. 

What I am most worried about is the fact that the backyard of the righteous clan was on fire. Everyone's demanding a friendly tie for the lapis armor. Haven't they heard the story of the two 'Li' killing the three warriors? I only fear that a catastrophe befalls the pugilist world because of this and until then it will be a stream of corpses 

Gu Xiang asked silly and innocently: streams of what? 

Cao Weining prattled on patiently: 'By the riverside I exclaimed, the corpses flow like a river '. It described how the elder Laozi as if his spirit has visited the riverside one night in a dream, and looked down to see the dead flowing downstream with the running water. Extremely melancholic, he was inspired....." 

Gu Xiang widened her eyes and said: Master, Brother Cao knows so much, and he even drops literary references. 

Zhou Zishu immediately understood why Zhang Chengling and Wen Kexing were so solemn. Assuming indifference, he turned around and walked out. 

But he was spotted by sharp-eyed, loose-lipped Wen Kexing, a person who had to bring others down into the muck with him regardless, who immediately yelled excitedly, A- Xu, why are you waking out? I was waiting for a long time, come over! 

... Zhou Zishu thought 'this jinxed Ghost Valley master Wen embodied eight bloody lifetime' worth of iniquity 

Wen Kexing cheerfully pulled a chair out, asked Zhou Zishu to sit down, and poured him wine himself. eagerly attentive as he said "Quickly taste the good wine of this restaurant. It tastes good." 

Zhou Zishu expressionlessly tried to express his condemnation with his eyes. Wen Kexing stared at him for a long while, then suddenly whispered " we are still in public " 

Seeing this, Gu Xiang cover Zhang Chengling's eyes with her hands, he said bitterly "Even The dog's eyes will be blind" 

Cao Weining blushed and became stuttered and said: Miss, Miss, Miss Gu, a-actually you don't need to envy Brother Zhou and Brother Wen's deep love. You are as beautiful as a flower. There must be...must be ... someone who secretly admires you. 

Gu Xiang blinked at him with big ignorant eyes and asked Ah? Really? Where? 

Cao Weining stared at her in a daze, and after a while, he asked in a non-sequitur" Miss Gu, c-c-can I call you Xiang too? 

Zhou Zishu lowered his head to drink his wine in great concentration, reminding himself that it is impolite to have seen or heard anything, it was agonizing as sitting on a needle carpet, disgusting him until even his tongue was numb, And it was the first time in his life where he failed to taste what was in the cup. 

But at this moment, a person walked in through the door, and when he saw the person, the noisy restaurant suddenly quieted down—this is a woman who came in with her gaze fixed on something in particular. Noticing the waiter, holding the plate, staring at her dumbly. She smiled slightly, and the plate in the waiter's hand fell and shattered on the floor. 

She was so beautiful. Most people who saw her felt it at that moment. This was the most beautiful woman they had ever seen in their life. Even Gu Xiang agape for a moment, before she tugged at Cao Weining's sleeve, whispering: Look at her, she isn't a goddess, is she? 

Yet Cao Weining just glanced once in the direction Gu Xiang was looking in and rescinded his attention, whispering: This woman's gaze strays and drifts, the books of physiognomy call this 'intoxicating gaze', she has no good intentions, and can't compare with....with.... 

His last words were mumbled very softly, so softly that Gu Xiang, who was staring transfixed at the beauty, did not notice. 

But a chuckle scaped Wen Kexing, who mused that Cao Weining was not a quick person himself, and no wonder was so averse to other whose gazes strays quickly. Even the one he had set his heart on was Gu Xiang, who was always in a daze. 

The beauty glanced around, then came upstairs, and walked towards them, she didn't see anyone, she was locked on Zhou Zishu alone, and as if her pair of amorous eyes had only space for him. She sauntered over to stand beside him, and bend down to say in a flowery breath: could I ask you to buy me a drink? 

 

This was a Lady Luck fallen from heaven—-Anyone would have been disoriented upon impact. But without even waiting for Zhou Zishu to speak. a third-wheeling sudden hand stretched out from one side separated between them like a barricade. Wen keXing stuck his hand in Zhou Zishu's robes , fishing out his money bag in a blink of an eye, and boldly shoved it into his robes, and then said calmly: Miss I'm afraid not
