Chapter 596: Mysterious Uncle Qin
The master Ma left with twenty-five taels of silver, and the small wood carving stall finally escaped.
Zhou Cheng's bluff seemed to not only frighten Master Ma, but even Old Man Qin looked at him in disbelief.
"Boy Yuan Zhou, are you really a disciple of the sect family?" Qin Laohan said with some hesitation, as if he wanted to determine the authenticity of Zhou Cheng's identity.
"The old man thought so. Zhou Cheng smiled, neither admitting nor denying it.
A refiner like him who travels through the world and refines the Dao in the red dust in order to survive the Vacuum Tribulation usually does not take the initiative to reveal his identity.
"Hey, where did the old man guess. Qin Laohan shook his head and said: "Anxing is a small city, and the county and county masters are only in the Linghui Realm, so there are not many refiners in the city, and the old man has never been out of Anxing for a hundred miles in his life." If you are really a disciple of the sect family, I can be regarded as an eye-opener. ”
It's just the Spiritual Wisdom Realm, and it's just?
Zhou Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and Qin Laohan's tone when he mentioned the Linghui Realm seemed to be a little wrong.
Qin Laohan also realized that his tone just now was a little wrong, and sighed: "I heard that most of the county guards of those big county towns are masters of the Tianchong Realm and even the Central Realm, which is really enviable." ”
"Uncle knows a lot about alchemists. Zhou Cheng said pointedly.
"Anxingcheng sometimes comes to write about outsiders, and I can naturally hear some anecdotes about the old man. Qin Laohan said with a smile: "What's more, isn't there still the Yinghua List and the Three Lists of Heaven, Earth and People? That's a good way to understand the rivers and lakes." ”
What Uncle Qin said seemed to have some truth, but he always felt that something was wrong, Zhou Cheng thought to himself.
However, just when he wanted to continue the temptation, a guest came to the stall and asked Qin Laohan about the price of wood carvings. Zhou Cheng didn't want to continue to ask.
These wood carvings ...... Zhou Cheng looked at these wood carvings again, and I have to say that Qin Laohan's craftsmanship is really superb, and these wood carvings are all like each other, and all of them have charm.
Only, if you haven't seen it with your own eyes. Have you personally experienced how these wood carvings have spiritual charm?
Thinking of this, Zhou Cheng's brows couldn't help frowning.
It is true that some genius master carvers can grasp the charm of something out of thin air and perfectly embody it in their own works, but after all, it is only a very small number, and it is almost impossible to meet such people casually.
Zhou Cheng's eyes swept over those spirit beasts, mountains, and rivers, and he thought in his heart, maybe this old man Qin is also a person with a story.
......
Without the intervention of the Lord. Uncle Qin's stall is booming again, but in just over half a day, he has already bought the wood carvings clean, and even the spare wood has been used up.
This time, it can be said that he made a lot of money, with a total of more than 400 taels of silver, which made Qin Laohan happy and red.
So with a wave of his hand, he gave Zhou Cheng a hundred taels, which was counted as a thank you gift for helping him deal with Master Ma's difficulties this time, and gave him another twenty taels of wages.
In the evening. The golden crow gradually sank in the west, and the fiery red glow burned in the sky. Reflected in the forest, falling patches of red light.
Zhou Cheng sat behind Qin Laohan's donkey cart, poked his head out and asked, "Uncle, how long have you been selling wood carvings here?"
Qin Laohan drove the donkey cart and said, "It's been twenty years, it's the old job." Just point to this breadwinner. ”
Then he paused, turned his head and asked Zhou Cheng who was sitting behind him a little strangely: "Yuan Zhou, boy, you should have the money of the guest house now, why are you still following me, an old man?"
"The boy thinks that the old man's carving is really the pinnacle. Zhou Cheng complimented and said, "So." I want to learn wood carving from my uncle. ”
"Learn wood carving?" Qin Laohan looked at Zhou Cheng with a smile and said, "I'm just afraid that learning wood carving is fake, and it is true to find out the old man's details." Young man, I don't care if you are instructed or curious, in short, don't give any hope.
Old man, I'm just an ordinary little old man who can only carve wood, if you want to find some hermit master to apprentice, I'm afraid I'm going to be disappointed. ”
Sure enough, there are weird ...... Zhou Cheng was overjoyed, but on the surface, he said without changing his face: "What is the old man talking about, I really just want to learn wood carving from you." ”
He followed Qin Laohan purely out of curiosity, and his intuition told him that behind this ordinary-looking lean old man, there should be an unknown legendary past.
In essence, Zhou Cheng still has a little gossip.
"Hey, whatever you want. Qin Laohan shook his head, and he didn't persuade Zhou Cheng, he whipped the donkey in front of him, and said, "Let's go, you brute, if you don't fight, you won't walk!"
Zhou Cheng sat quietly in the back like this, smiling and not speaking.
However, the two of them didn't go too far from Anxing City before they met an acquaintance, who was the same Master Ma who had asked Qin Laohan for protection money before.
And this time it was not only Master Ma who came, but also the other five strong men with big knives, these six people stood side by side on the road, it was like a thick wall.
Qin Laohan's brows furrowed slightly, he got out of the donkey cart and bowed to Master Ma slightly, and said, "I've seen Master Ma and all the big brothers, I don't know what a few people want to do when they block the way of Little Lao'er?"
Zheng!
Master Ma suddenly pulled out the long knife hanging from his waist, the blade was bright, reflecting the sunset, and it was a little dazzling.
"Old man Qin, I went back to the Sprinkle family in the morning and thought about it before I realized that something was wrong. I'm afraid that guy of yours is not a disciple of a sect family at all, and he can see my cultivation clearly is not because of the teaching of a famous teacher, it is clear that you told him in advance, right!"
"Where is Lord Ma, how can the little old man deceive you like this, this is wronged. Qin Laohan said with a bitter face, the wrinkles on his face were all squeezed together, and it was estimated that he could kill mosquitoes.
"Less nonsense!" Master Ma's bronze bell-like eyes glared, and said: "Old man Qin, the Sprinkle family will say it directly, leave four hundred taels of silver, and spare you from dying today, otherwise you and your buddy's heads will have to move." ”
"Four hundred taels!" Qin Laohan exclaimed, like a mourner: "Master Ma, you can't ......"
"Four hundred and fifty taels!" Master Ma sneered: "If you don't take it out, it's five hundred taels, if you don't make it up, you will take your life to make it up, and the most hated thing in this life is to be deceived!"
"Master Ma......" Qin Laohan looked at the long knife in Master Ma's hand, and then looked at the strong man next to him who was holding the big knife, sighed, and said, "Please wait a moment." ”
Qin Laohan came to the donkey cart, but he didn't mean to take the silver, but whispered to Zhou Cheng: "Boy, help the old man solve these people, and I'll tell you who I am." (To be continued.) )
