Be a master through ancient times

This boat was about the same size as the passenger boat Chuci and the others took when they returned to Xijiang Province, and it was decorated very fancy.Big lanterns are hung around the boat, turning the originally quiet and dark sea into a brightly lit joyous place.

The structure of this ship is zigzag, the center is the hall, and the surrounding rooms are all guest rooms.Chu Ci followed the woman all the way forward, and after bypassing several guest rooms, he arrived at the hall.

There is a large round table in the middle of the hall, and the dishes on the table are very rich.There are everything flying in the sky, walking on the ground, and swimming in the water on the plate. For people who have been drinking porridge for a day, the attraction is unprecedentedly strong.In addition, there are also high-quality drinks and pastries and fruits. At a rough glance, there are not a few ingots of white money on this table. This is because the seafood in the local market is relatively cheap. In the capital, I'm afraid it's more than that.

There were several beautiful maidservants standing beside the table, all of them had gentle smiles on their faces, and a pair of water-cut autumn pupils looked affectionately in the direction of the guests.Chu Ci stared straight at the people around him, and felt vigilant in his heart.

There is no pie from the sky, especially when the pie is fragrant and sweet, you should think about whether there is some deadly poison hidden in it.

Fortunately, not everyone was obsessed with it. Chu Ci found that the scholar surnamed Shen also had a little vigilance in his eyes, and his eyes were not fixed on these beautiful maids.

"Dare to ask girl, we have already come up, why don't you see the master's house?" someone asked.

"Young masters, don't worry, my master will be here later. You can sit down and have something to eat first." A maid said.

"How is this good? The master has not arrived yet, so I will not offend you." Everyone refused, and it seemed that they were afraid of fraud.

The maid didn't force it either, she saluted everyone and then walked outside.After a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

"Hahaha, the honored guest is here. The little old man is delayed by something. I will punish myself with three cups later." Before the person entered the door, there was a burst of hearty laughter. As the sound approached, a chubby man who looked like Maitreya Buddha The old man walked in, his face was flushed, he was dressed in an expensive brocade robe, a ruby ​​was inlaid on his hat, an emerald green wrench was worn on the thumb of his right hand, and a suet jade pendant was tied on his body. Dress up so that the people present are in awe, and feel that the person in front of him may have a lot of background.

"Everyone sit down, the little old man is surnamed Du, and he likes to make friends the most in his life. It is also a fate to meet you in this vast sea, and I will do it first as a respect!" After he finished speaking, he held the wine glass and walked forward After giving it away, he raised his neck and drank a glass of wine, and finally turned the glass down with his backhand, indicating that he had finished drinking.

This move made everyone couldn't help applauding, and the atmosphere became enthusiastic in an instant.Everyone found their seats and sat down, and began to strike up a conversation with Master Nadu.

In their view, it is impossible for a rich man with a net worth of millions to plot against them.And it's not just them on this table, there are so many people, even if he wants to plot something, he can't do anything to them.

Chu Ci followed the crowd and sat down. He was not in a hurry to strike up a conversation with Mr. Du, but to eat first.Leaving aside what kind of calculation Master Du has in mind, the food here is quite delicious.

Chang Xiao felt a little frustrated when he saw his master eating mouthful after mouthful.He thought the master was here to investigate something...

"Eat, what are you doing in a daze?" Chu Ci picked up a chicken leg for Chang Xiao, what is the child thinking about so much?

Chang Xiao buried her head in eating the chicken drumsticks, and missed the probing eyes of the protagonist, Master Du.

This old master Du noticed when he first came in, there were so many people in the arena, only this young man in gray robe had no envy in his eyes, as if such things were already commonplace.He was a little curious about Chu Ci in his heart, so he raised his cup and said to Chu Ci, "Du has met other guests just now, but I don't know the names of these two young masters, may I ask you?"

Because of his actions, everyone on the field turned their eyes around. Seeing that Chu Ci and Chang Xiao were still eating with their heads down, they couldn't help feeling a little disdainful.On such an occasion, he didn't want to have a good relationship with the host family, but kept eating. Could it be that he was reincarnated from starvation?

Chu Ci felt everyone's stares dully, took out the handkerchief that he carried with him, wiped his mouth, and said with a smile, "Master Du just laughed, and his stomach groaned like a drum. After seeing these delicious delicacies, he fell in love with Lang. To blame."

Master Du laughed and said, "Your Excellency has a true temperament, and Du likes to be friends with people with a true temperament."

A few people who wanted to please Master Du were stunned. Master Du likes this?They originally suppressed their urge to eat, but now they started to eat like Chu Ci and Chang Xiao,

"Thank you, Mr. Du, for not being surprised. My surname is Kou, my name is Qingzheng, and I'm at home. This is my book boy, named Axiao." Chu Ci lied without changing his face, and Chang Xiao nodded in his heart, thinking that Chuci's act of concealing his identity was very appropriate, but why was he called Qingzheng?

Master Du thought about it for a while, and found that in Southern Fujian Province, he seemed to have never heard of a famous person surnamed Kou. It seemed that the person in front of him was just a commoner.

"Oh, it's Brother Kou. It's a pleasure to meet you." Master Du's enthusiasm just now was a little colder. After a few greetings, he turned to greet other people.Chu Ci found that after he learned that Han and Chen were scholars, his interest in them suddenly became high.

After drinking for three rounds, everyone was full.At this time, Mr. Du smiled mysteriously, and clapped his hands outside.Before everyone could react, a gust of fragrant wind came in from outside, and those beautiful maids just changed into cool clothes and filed in, dancing in the open space directly in front of the table.

The sound of silk and bamboo that Chu Ci had heard before sounded again, and the lingering sound made the atmosphere in the field a little ambiguous for a while.Jumping and jumping, the movements of these women gradually became bolder, swinging their sleeves and bending over from time to time, their white and tender waists dangling in front of everyone's eyes, Chu Ci swore that he heard the sound of swallowing saliva.

In fact, he also thinks it's pretty good-looking, but he's already a gay guy with a man in his own right, so naturally he doesn't have any thoughts about these girls.And to be honest, this level of dance can only fool the ancients.

Chu Ci was not interested in watching, and the air inside became cloudy due to the strong smell of powder, so he walked out quietly.He didn't call him Chang Xiao, because he felt that the child was too old, and it was time for him to receive some training in resisting temptation.

After coming out of the hall and turning a corner, the air gradually became fresher, and Chu Ci took a deep breath.He walked on, wanting to go to the deck to get some fresh air.

It's a pity that he seems to have lost his way. There are guest rooms around here, and there are no clear road signs on it. Going further inside is a dead end. Chu Ci sighed and prepared to return the same way.

Just then, he heard someone talking.He stopped in his tracks, a rare look of confusion appeared in his eyes.

Just now, he seemed to have heard a "Baga"?

It stands to reason that he shouldn't eavesdrop on other people's conversations, but Chu Ci really wanted to find out whether it was an auditory hallucination or something, so he quietly approached the room where he was speaking, squatted down and leaned against the door to listen.

There were two people inside, and one of them kept explaining something, and promised not to miss it again next time.Another person snorted, and the words "次はないです, 死ね" came out of his mouth.

Chu Ci's eyes widened suddenly. Although he didn't know much Japanese, he still understood the meaning of this sentence. What this person said was "There is no next time, go to hell"!

Sure enough, after the man finished speaking, there was a muffled groan, and then the sound of something falling to the ground.

He seems to have stumbled upon a murder scene!Chu Ci's heart was beating violently, his palms were sweating, and his legs were a little weak.He touched the "Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle" on his chest, calculating the possibility of a fatal blow after being discovered.

Of course, this is the worst scenario.If it develops to that stage, I am afraid that everyone on this boat will lose their lives.Chu Ci took a deep breath, and slowly moved away from here.He carefully controlled not to make any movement, for fear of bumping into something.Fortunately, with God's blessing, he didn't attract attention during the process of leaving, and he returned to the outside of the hall smoothly.

Chu Ci had done the mental work for himself. After his complexion and heartbeat returned to normal, he was about to step into the hall. After thinking for a while, he walked to the other end and made noise on purpose...

The singing and dancing in the hall was still going on, and the atmosphere was more lively than when Chu Ci left. When some scholars were flirting with the girls reservedly, the merchants had already reached out to pull them.Chang Xiao didn't look up, but looked at the door frequently. He was relieved when he saw Chu Ci walking in from the door.

As soon as Chu Ci sat down, before he had time to say a word to Chang Xiao, Master Du over there asked with a smile, "Where did Mr. Kou go? If you don't come back, Du will send someone to look for you. "

Chu Ci's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Master Du had been paying attention to him.If the explanation is not good, I am afraid it will arouse suspicion.

"Oh, I drank a little too much and wanted to go to the toilet. It's just that Master Du's boat is too big, and I couldn't find it after searching. Fortunately, I met a little brother who told me later, otherwise it would be really ridiculous. .” Chu Ci shook his head with a wry smile on his face.

"Oh? Really? Mr. Kou didn't say it earlier, otherwise I will send someone to lead you there."

"No! These girls are beautiful and beautiful, how can they go to that filthy place!" Chu Ci said righteously.

A smile flashed across Master Du's eyes, and he turned his head to continue admiring the dance.However, his hand was placed in the dark and made a gesture.After a while, someone came in and whispered a few words in his ear, and Master Du was really relieved.

It was the second watch in a blink of an eye, and Chu Ci saw that Chang Xiao was drooping his head and wanted to sleep, so he bid farewell to Master Du.After hearing this, Master Du said, "It's really getting late, so let's leave today's table."

As soon as he said this, some people on the field glared at Chu Ci angrily, thinking that he had ruined everyone's happiness.But then Master Du's words made everyone excited again, because he said, "I have a lot of guest rooms on this ship. If you don't mind, you can rest here. Red Luan Cuiping, take the sisters and send the guests back to their rooms."

The girls responded in unison, and flew to the crowd like a fluttering butterfly to guide them.

Chu Ci declined in the end. He asked Chang Xiao to take him back to rest on the grounds of being dizzy. The maid in charge of guiding him was a little disappointed, but she still helped them get off the boat.In the middle of the walk, Shen Xiucai suddenly ran over. His clothes were in disarray, his face was panicked, and he rushed down without saying a word, as if he had been molested by a hooligan.

After Chu Ci returned to the small passenger boat, he and Chang Xiao put on their cloaks and leaned against the board to rest.Although Chu Ci still has many doubts in his mind, he knows that this matter needs to be considered long-term, and he will not be able to figure it out for a while, so it is better to rest first.

He closed his eyes and urged himself to start falling asleep.If he hadn't been awakened by nightmares several times at night, he would have had a good rest that night.

When the sky was just dawn, there was a sudden sound of arguing outside.Chu Ci, Chang Xiao, and Shen Xiucai went outside to see what happened, only to find that it was Mr. Du who was angrily cursing those guests yesterday.

They were only wearing their middle coats, and they were all standing on the deck with terrified faces, shivering from the cold morning wind.The three scholars who were on the same boat with Chu Ci yesterday stood in the middle, and now they all lowered their heads and covered their faces with their sleeves, looking unbearably humiliated.
