Poor monks do not break the precepts

Yongle City is the largest city in the North Meng Kingdom. Yongle Chang'an is a perennial scene. People of all kinds come and go to the gate of the city every day. Knights of martial arts, merchants from other places, and travelers from other countries are always in an endless stream.The people living near the city gate are used to strangely dressed passers-by, but the two people who appeared at Xuanping Gate on this day made people unable to take their eyes off it.

There are countless monks in the capital, but the well-dressed and exquisitely dressed monks, who are handsome, probably will not meet the second person.There are countless swordsmen in the city, but it is difficult to find another cold and beautiful female swordsman in red clothes and holding a dagger.

But these two eye-catching people appeared under the city tower at the same time, and entered Yongle City one after the other. The two people exuded a cold aura, which made people shiver even more than the cold winter sky.

Obviously these two people don't want to offend them. Although the people who saw them were curious, they didn't dare to make trouble behind their backs.

Chen Xiang's glances were like sharp knives, and the people who passed by peeking at him lowered their eyes in fright. Seeing that no one dared to observe Xu Sheng anymore, he said in a low voice: "Mr. Accept the lead."

Xu Sheng didn't like to be in places with a lot of people, so he walked slowly along the central street without waiting for his subordinates to pick him up.

"Lord, where are you going?" Chen Xiang found out that Xu Sheng was not going to Pinglefang where Man Tingfang was, and was worried that the sent people would not find them.

Xu Sheng saw through Chen Xiang's mind at a glance, and said in a cold voice: "Mr. Gong's subordinates, if they don't even have the ability to find me, what are they doing in Wuzhi Building?" Talk more, silently follow behind Xu Sheng.

There are 86 large and small markets in Yongle City. Although Xu Sheng has been to the capital several times, it is not easy to recognize the exact location of each market. He walked around the central street and glanced around according to his memory. Chongmingfang is located on the east-west street, so it is not too hard to find.

"Talk about wanting to live..." Chen Xiang murmured softly for a while, and persuaded: "Xuanji Pavilion is very strict with the landlord. If the landlord went to see Jia Banxian, wouldn't he reveal his whereabouts?"

Xu Sheng shrugged his shoulders and smiled lightly, and continued to walk towards Chongmingfang without caring at all, "Xuanji Pavilion is only caused by a difference in people's hearts, which caused the current situation. In terms of secret investigation skills, it has never been worse than Wuzhilou. Whether I came to the door in person today or not, Jia Banxian You will know that I have arrived in the capital within a day."

"We traveled all the way to the capital in secret, and we walked all the trails in the mountains. The landlord's itinerary doesn't even know the black face, how could Xuanji Pavilion find out?"

Xu Sheng glanced at the corner of the pawn shop not far away with eagle eyes, reached out and tapped Chen Xiang's wooden fish head, "Didn't you notice that we have been under surveillance since we entered Beijing? At the foot of the Son of Heaven, this is the old nest of Xuanji Pavilion. It's impossible for you to walk here without knowing everything."

Xuanji Pavilion's eyeliner in the capital is mostly hidden among the common people, and it is not easy to find out. Even Mr. Gong has been hiding in the capital for many years, but only seven or eight have been found.Chen Xiang's mind is pure and pure, and she devotes all her attention to her martial arts attainments. Naturally, she can't compare to Mr. Gong's eyesight. Could it be that she said it out of nowhere, she might not even realize it when she leaves the capital.

Xu Sheng saw that the people he was targeting looked away in fear, and said with a light smile, "Let them go. Most of these people are ordinary people who have no strength to restrain them, and there are so many of them. big trouble."

Chen Xiang pursed her lips slightly, and said worriedly: "Xuanji Pavilion has been investigating me, didn't Huai Mingmo let his subordinates be related to the landlord today?"

"He...has long recognized that I am an incense thief, and he has concealed it if he wants to cover it up." Xu Sheng stopped and looked from a distance, and there was a lame old man under the door plaque holding a dustpan and a broom, bending over to sweep carefully Snow.

"Isn't this little old man Jia Banxian?"

Xu Sheng walked straight up, raised his eyebrows and said: "Yes, it is Jia Banxian from the wealthy side."

Tanyuju is located in the inconspicuous Chongmingfang. The door plaque inside the shop looks very simple, and it looks like an ordinary antique shop inside and out.

Most of the people living in the workshop are ordinary people. I usually see Jia Banxian dressed in simple and unadorned clothes. He is obviously limping and has trouble walking. Shopkeeper.

What's more, this seemingly dilapidated antique shop is actually making money every day, and is the richest businessman in the capital.

As early as half an hour ago, Jia Banxian knew about Xu Sheng's arrival in the suburbs, and he was not at all surprised when he saw Xu Sheng's sudden appearance, "Miao Monk, please, when did you come to the capital?"

Xu Sheng stepped into the room unsuspectingly, and looked around for a while.

Tanyuju's layout is clean, just a few antique shelves and bookshelves, and the places that can be seen at a glance are all inconspicuous vulgar objects, but those inconspicuous ancient objects stained with dust make Xu Sheng's eyes shine.There are a lot of ancient books here, Xu Sheng picked up a few ancient books on pharmacology and poison, and sold them for 3000 taels.

Opening the door to do business, Jia Banxian had no reason to refuse the sale, but returned a few banknotes and said with a smile: "Miaoseng is generous, but I am not a black shop. Although these books are hard to find, they can't be sold at this price. "

Xu Sheng had no intention of taking back the ticket, and said very boldly: "Since it is a business, I understand Mr. Wantong's rules."

When Jia Banxian heard Xu Sheng call himself that, he folded up the bank notes politely, hid them tightly in his sleeves, and invited Xu Sheng to the tea room on the second floor, "Miao Monk is very interested in martial arts secrets recently."

Xu Sheng's eyes froze, he sat quietly for a long time, and said slowly: "It turned out that I was not interested, I was forced."

The flat tone contained indescribable sorrow and hatred. Jia Banxian had received the news of Wuwangya's sudden change in the past few days. Seeing that Xu Sheng hid his emotions very well, he didn't say much, "What does Miao Monk want to know?"

"Mr. Wantong, do you know about Huiji Lianxin's past?"

Jia Banxian was a little stunned, and recalled a little: "Lian Xin Huiji suddenly disappeared in the martial arts after such a bloody rain, and disappeared for more than [-] years. I don't know much information, and I don't know what to say at the moment. rise."

Xu Sheng tried his best to contain his hostility, and said calmly: "Mr. Wan Tong chooses himself and knows what to say."

Jia Banxian nodded, took a deep breath and said, "26 years ago, Mr. Yumian, also known as Mr. Butterfly, was chased and killed. He accidentally broke into the Butterfly Valley on the border between Xishu and Beimeng. He met Lianxin from Jade Nianhua there. Huiji, there are rules in Butterfly Valley, men are not allowed to enter, and those who trespass will die. But I don't know what method Lianxin Huiji used to hide him in the valley for several months until Mr. Butterfly recovered from his injuries. I heard that during these few months, Lianxin Huiji treated Butterfly Jun had a love affair. But at that time, the jade-faced gentleman was so romantic, and there were so many confidante in the world, how could he settle down for a little girl, and Mr. Butterfly disappeared soon after healed."

"I heard that Huiji Lianxin and Mr. Butterfly were a one-night couple. Later, Huiji Lianxin became pregnant. Is it true?"

"Yes." Jia Banxian replied, "I heard that Huiji Lianxin escaped from Butterfly Valley after the incident and gave birth to twins."

Xu Sheng asked eagerly, "Is the child still alive?"

Chen Xiang stood behind Xu Sheng, she had never seen such an anxious look from the host, staring at his back, her eyes were deeply worried.

Jia Banxian saw Chen Xiang's worry at a glance, knew that this was Xu Sheng's rare gaffe, and silently made a note in his heart, saying: "I don't know, I'm afraid no one in the world will know except Lianxin Huiji."

The expected answer, Xu Sheng inadvertently slumped, and asked again: "Do you know the identity of Lianxin Huiji? Where is Butterfly Valley?"

"I heard that the owner of Butterfly Valley is the princess who fled there in the previous dynasty, but Lianxin Huiji's identity is hard to say. Unless Mr. Butterfly tells the past, the rumors in the world are just rumors."

Unable to find any valuable news, Xu Sheng couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, he braced himself and said, "How to find Mr. Butterfly on the Canglang River."

Jia Banxian looked distressed, shook his head and said: "The river is rolling to the sky, I can only tell the Miao Monk that Mr. Butterfly lives on the Canglang River all year round. If you want to find him, you have to go along the river to find the lonely boat. There is no other way."

"I heard that Mr. Butterfly fell in love with Yao Wang's daughter and gave birth to a daughter." Xu Sheng pondered for a moment, then smiled lightly, "Where is that girl now?"

Jia Banxian was stunned, more and more confused about what Xu Sheng wanted to investigate, and said: "I heard that Xun Yu was killed by Lianxin Huiji just after the child was born, and the child was also taken away by her. After that, Mr. Butterfly searched frantically in the rivers and lakes. The daughter failed, and after Lianxin Huiji escaped from the Qingfeng sect, there was no news about it."

"Thank you sir for letting me know." Xu Sheng stood up and bowed to Jia Banxian to thank him, his expression was indifferent but different from before.

Jia Banxian squeezed the money bag of the hidden bank note, laughed and joked: "The Miao Monk came here today to smash the old man's signboard. Fortunately, you are fine, otherwise I will have to pay you back the 3000 taels I just collected."

Xu Sheng smiled slightly, "The poor monk would not dare to smash Mr. Wantong's signboard."

Jia Banxian took a deep look at Chen Xiang, and asked without fear: "Is this girl the red-clothed female swordsman that was rumored a while ago?"

"Exactly." Xu Sheng looked back at Chen Xiang who was holding the sword hilt, and said with a smile: "Her name is Chen Xiang."

Seeing Chen Xiang's whole body tense, Jia Banxian knew that he was in a dangerous situation, but he had already put his life and death aside and was not afraid at all.Jia Banxian, the top swordsman rumored in the world, couldn't help but look at him more.

Inadvertently, he noticed the sword on Chen Xiang's waist, his eyes flashed for a moment, he stared at the short sword with salivation, and said excitedly: "The Scarlet Rainbow Sword?! Is this the Scarlet Rainbow Sword forged by Master Lu Ye? "

The Chihong Sword was a gift from Xu Sheng when he was in charge of the first floor of Wuzhi Building. Chen Xiang didn't know the origin of this sword, but thought it was very useful. It was also a gift from Xu Sheng, so he cherished it very much.Hearing Jia Banxian's excitement today, he realized how precious this sword is, and immediately wanted to take it off and return it to Xu Sheng.

When Xu Sheng saw Chen Xiang's actions, he knew what he was thinking, and when he stretched out his hand, he pushed back Chen Xiang's sword-holding hand.

Unexpectedly, Jia Banxian's eyes were sharp, he grabbed his wrist, his hands trembling uncontrollably, and drew out the long sword he had hidden under his coat.

From the front to the hilt of this sword, the whole body is black and glowing. You don't need to try it to know how to cut iron like mud. The blade is slightly narrow and there are no lines.At first glance, it looks very ordinary, but an expert like Jia Banxian, how could he be blind to see it.

Holding the sword carefully for a long time, Jia Banxian's eyes widened suddenly, and he said in disbelief: "This is... the legendary Yuanmo sword? It is said that Lu Ye was the last sword that was forged with all his efforts. This sword died with Lu Ye's death. Lost. According to legend, Lu Ye deliberately sank to the bottom of Sun Moon Lake in Cang'e Mountain, not wanting others to enjoy it after death."

Xu Sheng knew that Yuanmo was sharp, so he was extra careful when he took the sword, and said with a light smile, "Mr. Wantong is the biggest antique dealer in Beimeng, he has really good eyesight."

Before Xu Sheng finished speaking, Jia Banxian discovered that the carved jade ball worn by Xu Sheng was not a vulgar item, it was the Yongxiang jade ball that belonged to Mrs. Zixu, the third emperor of the Wu Dynasty.Not to mention the emerald water flute, the jade flute carved by Master Lu Ban, and even the pendant hanging on the sword scabbard of Yuan Mo, are all dragon buckles carved by Master Lu Ban himself.

Seeing so many rumored famous artifacts in one day, Jia Banxian, who regards ancient relics as his life, suddenly became ecstatic.

He didn't care about being rude, and looked at Xu Sheng more boldly. At this time, Xu Sheng was no longer a living person in his eyes, but a walking antique.Fortunately, he still has his sanity, otherwise he might not be able to control himself, and would stretch out his hand to take off his clothes, to see how many ancient items he has hidden underneath.

"I have bothered Mr. Wantong for a long time today, so I dare not waste any more time."

Jia Banxian's eyes were still staring at Xu Sheng's waist in a daze, but he didn't answer when he heard the words, it was only when Xu Sheng spoke again that he came back to his senses.Scratching the back of his neck in embarrassment, Jia Banxian smiled and said, "Miaoseng's 3000 taels have not been spent, so how can I be negligent?"

Xu Sheng always regards money as dung and has no intention of getting it back. He smiled and said: "Then put it at Mr. Wantong's place first. In the future, I will come to buy ancient books and toys, or come to find problems, and the deduction will be enough."

Jia Banxian sent Xu Sheng to the door of the store, nodded and said with a smile: "It's a deal, Miao Monk can rest assured that our store will not deceive anyone, and will never deceive customers."

Wanshitong's identity in Jianghu is extremely secretive, Xu Sheng specially concealed the word Wanshi, and said: "Sir, there is no need to see you off, please leave."

Turning out of the street where Tanyu lived, the unsmiling Chen Xiang suddenly chuckled, "Fortunately, the landlord walked quickly."

Xu Sheng recalled the situation just now, took a breath, and was about to speak, but his eyes were attracted by the two people walking straight towards him.He stopped and stood there, staring at the two with a smile on his lips, until the two came up to him, he didn't say a word.

The visitors were dressed in ordinary clothes, and the badges hanging on their waists showed that their identities were unusual. One of them bowed deeply to Xu Sheng, and said respectfully: "Miao Monk, good afternoon, I'm Feng Shuren, the head of the sixth prince's residence. Renbei will send you to Qingcha Vegetarian Restaurant to welcome you, and send me to take you to the palace for a small gathering."

The aides of the royal residence salute the monk, which will inevitably attract the attention of others, Xu Sheng hastily helped Feng Shuren up, and said indifferently: "Your Highness Sixth is really sharp."

Feng Shuren heard the faint dissatisfaction in the words, and said with a smile: "Actually, my lord doesn't know that the Miao Monk has arrived in the capital, but the lord has sent people to prepare a table of vegetarian food every day, waiting for the Miao Monk to come. I was with my friend just now. Chatting in a wine shop near the Xuanping Gate, I happened to see a wonderful monk, and I waited here with the wonderful monk all the way."

Xu Sheng didn't answer, and glanced at the other person who was silent beside him.Several people from Feng hurriedly introduced: "This is the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Liu Shizheng."

Xu Sheng smiled knowingly, and only nodded with Liu Shizheng to meet each other, and said: "The Sixth Highness invites you to entertain me, it's really hard to turn down the kindness, if I refuse again, I will appear to be ignorant."

Feng Shuren immediately turned sideways to get out of the way, led the way, and said with a smile: "I have asked the young man to prepare the sedan chair at the market square, please come to Miao Monk."

Sure enough, there were two sedan chairs prepared outside Chongming Square, Liu Shizheng accompanied Xu Sheng and others to the Shifang entrance and left, obviously these two sedan chairs were prepared for Xu Sheng and the sinking.Chen Xiang is not a boudoir lady, she never travels in carriages, horses and sedan chairs, she originally wanted to refuse to accompany her on foot, but seeing Xu Sheng's expression did not allow her to refuse, she could only obey orders.
