(12) Lobbyist

"It's a shame to say that I like reading since I was a child. I have seen some annotations in the cracks of a Taoist work. I was careful. After sorting out these annotations, I found that they were some formulas for refining qi and self-cultivation. The younger generation is a concubine and is not qualified to learn family studies, so I dared to practice the methods of annotations. Who knew that when I saw it, I felt that my luck was surprising, so I taught all the skills he learned. Perhaps for other reasons, the younger generation did not ask me to call him a teacher."

Bai Qi finally found a reasonable explanation from the martial arts novels in his previous life. It can’t be said that Tai Chi Kung Fu was created by himself, that would be too deceptive to the world and steal fame. You should be kind enough to be a person.

After listening to Bai Qi's explanation, the old man suddenly said: "We practice our own martial arts all day long. We thought that only two or three people could get into the Dharma eye. I think it was a bit like a good place to see the sky. Today, I saw that the world is so big that there are only many strange people, which is far from what we can expect. I just tried it and felt that what I learned was just as martial arts as it is the top unique skill in the world."

Bai Qi didn't expect that the old man would call him a friend, so he couldn't help but lower his head and said in shame: "Senior, wouldn't he kill the younger generation?"

The old man shook his head and said, "It's okay, Izumoko can be half a teacher and half a friend, so why can't I? Most people who are older are not very concerned about age. Besides, if we are a practitioner of Taoism, if we are still petty about hierarchies and other things in the world, it will only be a narrow-mindedness."

"This..." Bai Qi was still a little hesitant. After all, this old man seemed to be much older than him, and the total amount of time he lived in his two lives might not be half of that.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Young man, do you know why I came to you today?" The old man interrupted Bai Qi's hesitation and said.

Bai Qi found that there was nothing to worry about in terms of the name, and he didn't care. He was worried. Seeing the old man asking questions, he quickly bowed and replied, "I don't know, please tell me clearly."

The old man blushed and said a little embarrassedly: "I am ashamed to say that I am here to be a lobbyist."

Bai Qi was a little confused. He had never seen this old man before. How could he say that he came to be a lobbyist for him? This was really puzzling.

"Senior, I wonder who asked me?" Bai Qi felt that this matter should be related to Xue Yiran and the others, but he still asked to avoid making a mistake and becoming ugly.

The old man did not directly answer Bai Qi's words, but changed the subject: "Many years ago, my sect had been living in seclusion on Meishan. At that time, the Meishan Taoist Sect was really prosperous. Who would have thought that there were no elites overnight? Now, we were a little arrogant and thought that no matter how high the cultivation level in the world was, we would not be able to do anything to my Meishan Sect, so we acted a little arrogantly. This violated the principle of the monk's indifference in everything, and eventually caused a huge disaster for ourselves. If I hadn't come in time and rescued me from the dead, I would have been a cup of loess." At this point, the old man couldn't help but sigh, his face somewhat depressed.

At this time, Bai Qi also knew that the old man should be one of the only remaining seniors in the Meishan School. He couldn't help but think of Master Meishan. If the old man knew that he had raped his disciples, he didn't know how to deal with him. Thinking of these, Bai Qi couldn't help feeling uneasy. When he reacted to his face, his breathing accelerated, his facial muscles were a little nervous, and his face looked a little ugly.

Who knew that when the old man saw Bai Qi's reaction, he comforted Bai Qi: "These things are all the past events of adulthood. I guess Izumoko should have used this as a typical textbook to warn you. The people in my mission have some of the consequences, so you don't have to be sad with me, as an outsider."

"I'm talking about it, but when I'm old, I love to think about the past. Especially when I see the sword you are wearing, it reminds me of this." The old man pointed at the Zhanchou on Bai Qi's waist.

Bai Qi then realized that the old man had the feeling he had just seen Zhan Chou. He quickly untied the sword, hoping to let the old man take a look. After all, this was the thing of an old friend in the past.

The old man shook his head and stopped Bai Qi's movements and said, "Forget it, it's better not to look at the second-class sad thing. But I think the sword of the slaying sorrow has not revealed any violent aura in your hands. If I hadn't remembered it deeply, I would have almost never recognized it just now?"

Bai Qi thought about it after hearing this and said, "Senior, Senior Izumoko once said that Zhanchou has already regarded me as the main one, I don't know if it is because of this."

The old man suddenly realized and said, "So that's it. It seems that my friend is really a destined person. Just killing the sorrow is a bad thing. I will use it with caution in the future."

Bai Qi replied respectfully: "I am remembering it. Senior, we have been talking for a long time, but I don't know what to call you accurately. Although you call me a friend, I can't mess with etiquette. Even if you call me your own, you should give me an accurate statement, right?"

The old man laughed and said, "What a guy who has his own name. You are interesting, I like it. When I saw my old friend Izumoko in the future, he said that the passionate man missed him and asked him to come to Toliang to come to me for a drink when he has time."

Hearing this name, Bai Qixin said: "Lovely son, merciless son, love these two brothers."

"Okay, let's talk about this today. It's not too early, so it's time for me to go back." As he said that, the old man didn't walk through the door and jumped out of the window. Bai Qi couldn't help but feel funny when he saw it. This old man seemed to have a special liking for the window just like him, and he went through this path. I think he was also a restless person when he was young.

Bai Qi was thinking, but when he saw a flash of figure outside the window, the old man came in again and said uncontrollably: "Shame, I am old and confused, and I have forgotten the main purpose of my visit."

Bai Qi then remembered that the old man Wuqingzi came to be a lobbyist. He just thought that it was always wrong for the old man to leave. It turned out to be for this.

Wuqingzi didn't talk much nonsense, and stood at the window and said, "My friend, give me some face. That guy Xue Yiran was kind to me back then, so I owe him the favor. Although your idea of ​​starting a business is good, I will give up because of my face. I'll just go back honestly and be your master. I think they can't lose money to you."

Before Bai Qi could speak, the old man drifted out like a breeze. From a distance, he could only hear a clear voice from the old man: "My friend Bai Qi, I'm just going to say that, just think that I owe you personal favors. The favors you owe are more solid than those of ordinary people. Hahahaha!"

Bai Qi chased the window, but only saw Wuqingzi disappearing into the water-like night like air.

Bai Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly, "This old man came here to lie down, it's okay, he'll go back when he goes back. At worst, he can find an opportunity to move out in the future."

In the palace, Xue Yiran's personal guard, Mr. Yun, reported to Xue Yiran's success in being a lobbyist. Xue Yiran's brows frowned for a day and finally relaxed, and she breathed a long sigh: "I'll tell them now, and then choose the day and give them a wedding. Hahaha!"

Before Xue Yiran was happy, Mr. Yun said again: "Your Majesty, Uncle Master asked me to notify you. The things he promised you have been fulfilled now. Now he owes you nothing. He left the capital Liangcheng overnight, saying that he was traveling around the world."

Xue Yiran's smile suddenly stiffened, and she thought to herself: Why did I forget the trouble? Thinking of this, Xue Yiran couldn't help feeling a little sad. The last thing was wasted by Bai Qi, a bastard. See how to deal with him in the future. But when I looked back, I thought about it, it was related to my daughter's lifelong happiness and possible inheritance of the empire. If it hurts, it would be better than my wife facing herself with a bitter face all day long.

The matter seemed to be concluded, but Bai Qi still did not move back and lived in the upper room of the inn. Perhaps Bai Qiwei was embarrassed to come to see Bai Qi and asked Xiao Lian to talk to Bai Qi about changing his name. Bai Qi's answer to this matter was, "You can agree to the matter of returning to Bai's family, so don't change the name. I am already used to the name Bai Qi. One thing that has changed is trouble, and the other is that Bai Qi also has feelings for this name and doesn't want to change it."

In fact, Bai Qi has another reason that he couldn't say. In his previous life, he was called Duan Qi and in this life, he also called Bai Qi. There is some inconspicuous meaning in this. Bai Qi doesn't want to cut off all the connection with everything in his previous life.

Regarding the wedding date, Bai Qi did not worry too much about this issue. He just said that his mother had decided after discussing with them. Bai Qi was so frustrated and didn't care about his marriage at all. What was Bai Qi busy with?

The backyard of Taobao Pavilion is now a busy scene, and it has become a temporary winemaking experimental site. Under Bai Qi's guidance, after three days of preparation, the first set of equipment for brewing high-purity white wine was finally released.

The bottom layer is of course a stove, followed by a layer of steamed wine, and the top layer is filled with cold water. The purpose is of course to solidify and export the steamed white wine.

Speaking of which, Bai Qi really spent a lot of thought on making this thing. In his previous life, this thing should be very simple, but when he made it himself, it was not the case at all. Fortunately, Manager Yu, following Bai Qi's instructions, had already invited the best carpenter. Under Bai Qi's conception framework, a primitive and simple winemaking equipment finally completed the simple prototype, and the next step was steaming.
Chapter completed!
