Raising the Demon

Chapter 248
The dispute between Zi Baifeng and Lian Yunping was also rumored in Xijing. Two teenagers who called themselves Huai Su, a master Huai Su, and a real person Huai Su, both accused each other of plagiarizing their own words. In the end, Zibaifeng made a big fuss in Zhongshan Bieyuan. Zibaifeng stained Zhongshan Bieyuan with unknown ink. It is said that even the ground of Zhongshan Bieyuan is now black. Absolutely.

There are no black chrysanthemums in this world, but the water used to wash the ground from the Zhongshan Courtyard flows outside and is absorbed by the chrysanthemums. There are more varieties that are as black as ink, forming a unique landscape.

Zi Baifeng didn't expect that after reading so many anecdotes about unofficial history, one day, he suddenly created an anecdote that could be included in stories such as "Shenxian Zhuan" and "Sou Shen Ji", and he was quite proud.

As for the poem written on the stone wall, after Zi Baifeng heard that Qi Hanshan had returned, he said: "He dared to slander me like this, and he will definitely be listed as an unwelcome guest in the future. It's half a step into it!"

Then he said: "This Zi Baifeng still has some crooked talents. He imitated my handwriting, and he is so lifelike. It's amazing, but it's a pity that his character is so bad that it makes people feel cold."

He ordered people to wipe off the handwriting on the stone wall. Who would have thought that the ink marks not only penetrated into the wood, but even penetrated into the stones. The people from the other courtyard cut off a layer of stones, but they still could not remove the ink marks.

An exasperated Lian Yunping said: "There is only one Huai Su in this world, and only one person is worthy of this title!" Then he ordered people to smash the stone wall directly.

However, in the end, who copied whom? As far as Zi Baifeng knows, it seems that there are more people who support Lian Yunping. There have been many unfavorable rumors about Zi Baifeng, and it is also said that Zi Baifeng, a foreigner, can get the first place in the township examination, which is also cheating Come, spread Zibaifeng extremely unbearably.

Zi Baifeng knew that Lian Yunping was behind the rumors.

Since this person is so shameless as to deny the evidence and fabricate the facts, it is not a problem that can be solved by reasoning. Lian Yunping has completely offended Zi Baifeng, and there is no way for the two of them to be kind.

As Lian Yunping said, both Zi Baifeng and Lian Yunping must prove that there is only one Huai Su in this world, and the other is just scum.

But for Zi Baifeng, facing such a shameless enemy, the only choice is to beat him to death with a stick.

But these are all things for later, but Zi Baifeng did not expect that a bickering turned into a battle of splashed ink, which would eventually become the name of his family's Gui Mo. That night, a few scholars came to ask, then Where does Gui Mo, who is so penetrating to wood, come from, and can he buy one or two.

In fact, the evaluation of Gui Mo is not just a three-pointer, one scholar even shook his head and read a "Gui Mo Poem", saying: A little ink penetrates three points, a stroke penetrates a stone two feet, and a thousand miles of golden armor is completely stained with ink. Chrysanthemums and cinnamon are floating in the world.

Zi Baifeng turned around and wrote this poem on the wall of the middle hall of his store.

On the second day, there was no need to repeat the grand occasion of the opening of Gui Moxuan. Not only the dignitaries from all over the place came to congratulate, but also the literati from all over the place came to buy this kind of precious ink one after another. Gui Moxuan of Baifeng's family has just opened, and has successfully made a name for itself, becoming the number one high-end calligraphy merchant in Xijing.

Although Zi Baifeng is not very good at management, he has a lot of strange tricks. He specially launched: "Real Person Stealing Books Set", which suppressed the mold overnight into a huge cursive "stealing" character, which is listed below. A short sentence: "This real person steals a book, how can it be considered stealing?" There is another one, and the comment below is: "My master has been stolen, I am not happy!"

In addition, there are many such things as "three-point packaging style into wood", "two-foot packaging style through stone", "splash ink medium two limited edition", "Master's unhappy cultural style", etc., etc., which created a strange popularity in Xijing for a while. It is fashionable for everyone to wear "stealing book ink", give away "secondary ink", and wear "uncomfortable shirt".

Of course, these people don't care at all who is the book thief between Zi Baifeng and Lian Yunping. In the eyes of many people, the dispute between Zi Baifeng and Lian Yunping is just a strange carnival. All kinds of rumors were rampant all of a sudden and intensified.

But for the parties involved, this is actually not a happy thing. Both Zi Baifeng and Lian Yunping are secretly holding back their energy, planning to beat the other party to the ground in one fell swoop.

"You..." When Gui Moxuan opened, Mr. Fu also brought a few friends to join him. When he saw Zi Baifeng, he shook his head helplessly, "It's just a cursive script. Why is it so?"

He knows Zi Baifeng's temperament, this person is very proud, he absolutely disdains to counterfeit other people's calligraphy and painting, and Xiao Shitou copied that calligraphy and painting, in fact, he has seen it before, just for such a calligraphy and painting - even though the calligraphy The remnants are really stunning and talented, but they will not offend Lian Yunping to death.

"People from the Zhongshan faction approached me and said that this is just a dispute between young people's own spirits. I don't want to interpret it too much. I also mean the same thing. Let's pass this matter." Fu Jun said.

Zi Baifeng was a little puzzled, the disciples of the Zhongshan sect were so arrogant and domineering, and even Yunping didn't seem like that kind of person, who would educate such disciples, how could he be a modest gentleman?
If the Zhongshan faction was persistent, Zi Baifeng didn't think it was strange, but it made Zi Baifeng feel puzzled that the other side handled the matter so low-key.

I always feel that something is wrong.

But this kind of doubt is too subjective and idealistic, Zi Baifeng just curled his lips and said: "Who asked him to mess with me? I won't let King Zhuan either!"

"Don't talk about King Zhuan, be careful that one day your head will be cut off." When he said this, the Fujun was very helpless.

Zi Baifeng is a monkey. He is not afraid of the sky and the earth. If he can't be locked up, he can't be restrained. It's harder than going to the sky to keep him from causing trouble. It has great influence, if the Zhongshan faction is against us, it will be bad for Mengcheng."

After moving out of Mengcheng, Zi Baifeng accepted his nagging humbly for a while, but his heart was not in agreement, and his thoughts had long since drifted away, so he saw an opportunity and grabbed Luo Qianshan who was passing by. , said: "Qianshan, I'm looking for you!"

Immediately, he successfully escaped with the help of Qianshan Dun.

When walking away, I heard Fu Jun's friend over there say to Fu Jun: "I really want to see what kind of scroll is this fragment that caused such a storm..."

"Oh, I made you laugh." Fu Jun shook his head and supported his forehead.

In fact, Zi Baifeng didn't like causing trouble, but unfortunately no one believed him.

For a period of time after that, although the rumors did not subside, it was still calm. Zi Baifeng led people to dredge the river all day long, and expanded the range of activities of his koi cloud boat. Mo, the monitoring of Jiuying did not relax for a moment.

In the blink of an eye, the first winter snow came and covered the whole Xijing one after another, turning Xijing into white.

Early in the morning, Zi Baifeng sent people out to patrol, urging merchants and households to clean up the snow in front of their doors. Zi Baifeng and others also did it themselves to clean up the snow in Zhizheng courtyard.

Xiao Shitou is now active again, leading the children of all ages in Zhizhengyuan to build a snowman in the yard, very happy.

That is, on this day, an unexpected guest arrived unexpectedly.

Zi Baifeng, Lu Zhifu and others were sweeping the remaining snow in the yard with brooms. Everyone was working hard, and Lu Zhifu even unbuttoned his clothes, and his chest and head were steaming.

A servant came in with a man dressed as a servant, and said, "My lord, someone wants to see you."

The servant took a step forward and said: "Master Zhizheng, my master Qi Taixun is asking to see you."

Zi Baifeng hummed and continued to sweep the snow.

The servant thought that Zi Baifeng didn't hear clearly, so he continued: "Master Zhizheng, my master Qi Taixun is asking to see you outside the door."

"Just let him in." Zi Baifeng stopped what he was doing, stood up straight, and looked at the servant.

"My master, Mr. Qi Taixun, is the cousin of Mr. Li Qingyang, a doctor in the Ministry of Industry." The servant seemed a little confused, and said again.

"So what? Should I go out to meet him?" Zi Baifeng asked, "May I ask what rank of official your master is, and where does he work?"

When Qi Taixun came in, he was extremely displeased, obviously he heard the servant's report and was not very satisfied with Zi Baifeng's attitude.

As the cousin of the doctor of the Ministry of Industry, he has always been very smooth in these yamen under the Ministry of Industry. Who doesn't greet him with a smile and send him out of the house disrespectfully?
When he arrived at Zi Baifeng's place, he was very displeased with such a cold reception.

"My lord, I'm here to do business with you." After Qi Taixun sat down, he drank tea first and felt comfortable. Seeing that Zi Baifeng didn't pay attention to his intentions, he seemed to let him sit there with himself on the sidelines Just to deal with his own business, he had to speak, said.

"Oh? I don't know what kind of business you plan to do with me?" Zi Baifeng was quite puzzled.

"Naturally, it's a jade business." Qi Taixun said, "At this time of year every year, the Zhizhengyuan of each pavilion will replenish jade, and I'm here today to send jade to you, Master Zi."

What Qi Taixun said is correct, at this time of year, the storeroom of Zhizhengyuan really needs jade, and the entire East Pavilion consumes thousands to tens of thousands of jades a year.

In winter, the water flow rate is slow, and the spiritual energy content of the entire Xijing also drops. It is a good time to overhaul the large formation. In the days of the five-year inspection, Zi Baifeng's tasks are quite heavy, and there is also a large demand for jade, and there are not many in the warehouse.

Zi Baifeng was still considering whether to use the jade accumulated by Uncle Qingshi, and worried that the unknown source of a large amount of jade would make people suspicious, so someone sent the jade to his door.
