Late Night Tales Of The Capital Chapter 6: Snake group

As for the magic weapon of the realm of cultivation, Ye Que did not have an urgent need, but tonight’s little demon fox gave Ye Que a wake-up call. The realm of demon should have begun to invade the world. Now everyone may not pay too much attention. But the time left for him will certainly not be too long.

Ye Que has a plan to improve his realm, but it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. Some elixir or materials still need some opportunities to find. If there is a ready-made auction, it would be good to go and see it.

Seeing that Ye Que was a little moved, Qian Shuxiao quickly said, "Sir, don't worry, as long as it is what you are looking for, you don't have to worry about it. I will take it for you and offer it with both hands. In this Luoyang city , If we compare financial resources, our money family has never been afraid of anyone."

"If you can meet something you like, I owe you a favor." Ye Que said in a deep voice.

"Don't dare, you can accompany me, it is already a great favor." Qian Shu smiled with joy.

Speaking of Qian Shuxiao, as the only grandson of the Qian family in Luoyang, it is not necessary to make friends with people so inferiorly, but the Qian family is a merchant, and the descendants of the Qian family have a pair of insights and know how to observe people and what People are worthy, who are worthy, and who are worthy of a lot of money. People are the most worthy of investment. Why Qian can come to this day is because there are always noble people to help.

Qian Shuxiao saw Ye Que at the first time, and was shocked by his skill. What's more, even his life was saved by Ye Que. In his opinion, Ye Que should be the nobleman he had hit.

As for the four young masters of Luoyang, they are just friends of wine and meat, they can share sweets, but cannot share adversity.

Without responding to Han Yu and others, Qian Shuxiao led Ye Que out of the Peony Building.

Soon, when the time came to midnight, the whole Luoyang city gradually entered a drowsy state, the bustle of the night market also slowly dissipated, and the diners on the first floor of the Peony Building almost disappeared. . At this time, the boss is using an abacus to calculate the income of the day, and the little secondhand is doing the finishing work quickly. As for the guests on the second and third floors, they have already fallen asleep.

The kitchen of Peony Building is behind the lobby. There is a small house on the left hand side of the kitchen. The basement of the small house is a wine cellar, which stores high-age wines that are not often sold in the week. The wine cellar is kept in a full cellar condition all year round. If the consumption is severe, it will be replenished after a period of time. In the past few days, there have been several circuses from the Western Regions at the Luoyang Night Market, so the Peony House has an exceptionally large number of diners, and the consumption of fine wines with high vintages is also greater than usual. Tonight happens to be a day for replenishment.

Zhang Xiaojiu is the nephew of the owner of the Peony House, so the beauty of replenishing goods like this is naturally beyond the turn of others. Touching the swollen money bag on his waist, Zhang Xiaojiu hummed a little song and held the last one. The jar aged Dukang went to the wine cellar.

Holding the wine jar with one hand and the wooden ladder with the other, Zhang Xiaojiu walked on a familiar road with a height of three or four meters. He could walk into the wine cellar in the blink of an eye and replenish for a long time. He wouldn't trip over even if he closed his eyes.

"Don't mention dragon and phoenix, don't talk about marriage, your appearance has gotten into my heart." With the consecration of the winery, Zhang Xiaojiu was in a particularly good mood and hummed a little song with great interest. The wine cellar is not small, but he is the only one, and the natural sound reverberation is excellent.

"Hey."

"Who?"

Zhang Xiaojiu yelled uncertainly. He just vaguely seemed to hear some movement in the depths of the wine cellar.

"Hey."

Just after shouting, I heard two more sounds, like something rubbing the ground.

A trace of cold sweat came out of Zhang Xiaojiu's palm. After all, it was midnight, and in this dark underground wine cellar, if there was an accident, there would be no place to cry. Subconsciously took out a fire letter, Zhang Xiaojiu tremblingly breathed out a few breaths, and soon the fire light illuminates the entire wine cellar.

I raised my head and squinted his eyes to look carefully. The entire wine cellar was nothing but hundreds of jars of fine wine. Zhang Xiaojiu took a breath, patted his chest, and wiped the sweat from his palms. It was scary. Scary.

"Next time I will definitely not replenish goods at night. This place is too oozing." Zhang Xiaojiu muttered and put Du Kang in his hand on the drunk driving beside him. He turned around and walked back. He was a little scared now. , I don't want to stay here for a moment.

"Buddha bless, Buddha bless." Zhang Xiaojiu muttered as he walked.

But as soon as he turned around, in the shadow of a wine jar, a blood-red snake letter suddenly appeared, and then a green snake head. It was just a breath of effort, and the green shadow crawled towards Zhang Xiaojiu around the zigzag. When he lifted his leg up the wooden ladder, the snake head under his feet just showed four white fangs.

"What is it?" Zhang Xiaojiu felt that his ankle hurts, and a tingling sensation began to hit him suddenly, raising the Huo Xinzi in his hand and looking at his feet. As Huoxinzi passed behind him, Zhang Xiaojiu's eyes widened, and he showed an expression of extreme fear. He swears that he has never seen such a terrifying picture in his life.

The wine jars surrounding the wine cellar are densely packed, full of snakes, black, cyan, green, and there are countless colors.

On the wall deep in the wine cellar, under the light of the fire, a dark shadow was projected on it, seemingly inhuman.

A scream came from the underground wine cellar.

The cabin where the wine cellar is located is really far away from the lobby of the Peony Building, and there is no one in the kitchen at this time, so no one heard Zhang Xiaojiu's last cry for help.

Time flies quickly, less than a quarter of an hour.

In a guest room on the second floor, a plump and white merchant snored lying on the bed, and from time to time he mumbled a few sleepy words. Perhaps the fat merchant was afraid of the heat and did not put down on the bed. Roller blinds. His house happened to be on the sunny side, and by the moonlight, he saw strips of slender shadows slowly approaching the bed, just as if they had a position, they climbed straight up the belly of the fat merchant, and then opened their fangs together.

At the same time, a woman visiting relatives from another place was also surrounded by snakes on the third floor. A teenager who came to Luoyang to make a living was also poisoned at the corner. There was only one room on the second and third floors of the Peony Building. There was a cry for help. That was a scholar from Qingzhou Prefecture. He came to Luoyang to take the imperial examination. He didn't sleep at night and was still studying, but he happened to witness the whole process of being besieged by snakes. Although he was not asleep and he was awake, he just persisted for a few more seconds. How could a scholar who had no power to bind a chicken be able to defeat the snakes.

"San'er, was there a sound just now?" The boss of Peony House was reckoning with the account, suddenly raised his head and asked his buddy.

"It seems to be from the third floor." The dude called San'er replied uncertainly.

"It's really unlucky. It's been a night, and nothing has stopped. First the son with the surname Qian, and then the young master with the surname Han. What's wrong now, is there any distinguished guest on the third floor?" The boss rubbed his eyebrows. , Said with a headache, "San'er, go up and have a look, let them rest early when they are okay, don't worry about it, this is Luoyang, there are rules and rules."

"Oh, boss, I'll go now." San'er replied sharply, and walked up to the second floor.

Walking up to the second floor slowly, but in the blink of an eye, I jumped down violently, running and shouting in horror, "Old, boss, snake, snake."

"Snake? Where is a snake? Is it such a fuss about a snake? Just find a guy to get it out. See what you are doing!" The boss scolded and scolded.

"No, it's not one." San'er gestured with his fingers, and all said it was uncomfortable. You must know that he is the second in the lobby, and his work is all based on a mouth, "Old, boss, you, behind you."

"Dangdangdang."

"It's dry and dry, watch out for candles."

In the west of Changsheng Bridge, on Yong'an Street, the old man who was a watchman passed by the Peony Building, thinking of the pot of wine that he had drunk before nightfall, and his mouth showed a contented smile.

The House of Qian is not on Yong’an Avenue, but on Zhuque Street, which is a little bit farther north. It is a ten-jin mansion with hundreds of rooms. Although the floor space is not as lavish as the hometown, it’s Luoyang. An inch of gold. It is said that this mansion was the residence of a prince in the previous dynasty, and it was bought by the Qian family after the change of dynasty.

Qian Shuxiao's six big sedan chairs turned around and turned around for a long time before stopping in front of a tree-lined garden.

"Master, I'm home."

Getting off the sedan chair, Qian Shu smiled and pointed to the room in front of me, "Sir, this room is the best place in my house. There is a hundred fish pond in the back and a green bamboo forest in the front. It is only 100% away from my room. M. Quiet and elegant, with green trees and red flowers, you are still satisfied or not, if you are not satisfied, I will find a place for you."

Ye Que looked in the direction of Qian Shu’s smile, crossed a small road paved with gravel, and then passed a small bamboo forest. At the end was a small house with red roof and blue tiles. "You can live anywhere. ~IndoMTL.com~ I don’t have high demands on these things, as long as it’s not too noisy, you can look at the arrangements."

"Mr. wronged, please." Qian Shu said with a smile and led the way. "By the way, I never knew what to call you?"

"Ye Que."

"It's better to be lacking than to overrun."

"Good name."

"Do businessmen like to flatter so much?"

"How can you flatter, your name is really excellent." Qian Shuxiao scratched his hair awkwardly. If it wasn't flattering, even he himself would not believe it.

At this moment, it was almost late at night, and many rooms in the Qian Mansion had already turned off their lights and rested, except for some maid Xiaosi who needed to be on night shifts. What is strange is that everyone has not walked a few steps, only to see on the north side of the green bamboo forest, there is still a brightly lit room at this time, depending on the size and structure, it is obviously not the residence of the subordinates.

Qian Shuxiao's ability to observe words and expressions is really good, and he took a look and explained, "This room was originally empty, but recently my sister has to move over somehow and is obsessed with writing here. Painting, sometimes one painting is one night, it’s incredible."

"Did your sister paint before?" Ye Que asked casually.

"Although my sister's name is Qian Shuhua, she never touches the pen."

There must be a demon if something is strange. Ye Que subconsciously looked at the brightly lit room, and saw the silhouette of a short-haired woman by the window, watching the posture while painting. The front door of the house was open. Two little maids stood on the left and right of the door, both of them were so sleepy that they began to doze off. There was a painting on the wall of the house facing the door. The landscape was blurred with clouds and mist.

Looking at it from a distance, it is full of meaning, and then when you look carefully, the cloud is in a trance like a beast that can eat people, and the cloud group is the mouth of the blood basin.
