Although I ate quickly, I felt a little choked.
But Lingzhi took a look at the tea and didn't dare to drink it.
The shopkeeper came back soon, and with him came a man dressed in gold and silver, with seven or eight rings on his hands. He looked like a wealthy boss.
"Master Wen, this young man said he has a big deal to discuss with you."
Following the shopkeeper's introduction, Xiao Qingyun stood up.
When Master Wen saw Xiao Qingyun, he was also a little stunned: "It's you! Why are you here?"
When he saw Xiao Qingyun's naked chest and the leaves covering his body, he couldn't help laughing and turned his head to the side, covering his mouth with one hand. His shoulders kept twitching, and he didn't know whether he was crying or laughing.
The bandit standing next to Lingzhi sighed: "Is there something seriously wrong?"
Lingzhi also looked at Master Wen, who was shaking violently.
I don’t know whether he is sick or not, but he and Xiao Qingyun must have some friendship.
Xiao Qingyun glanced at Master Wen indifferently, his face calm and composed.
But she could see that he was actually a little frustrated.
As soon as he saw the big businessman Wen come in, Boss Sun's eyes lit up.
Seeing that he recognized Xiao Qingyun, he immediately stepped out from the crowd and said, "You know him, right? That's easy. Your brother owes us five hundred taels of silver. You should pay it back for him."
"What? You owe someone money?"
Master Wen pointed at Xiao Qingyun, his face full of disbelief.
Obviously, in his eyes, the five hundred taels was not as shocking as the fact that Xiao Qingyun was being chased for debt: "Tell me quickly, did you lose money gambling? Or did you go to a brothel and didn't pay the money?"
"Stop talking nonsense and pay!"
Boss Sun's head was buzzing with fear from Master Wen's constant startling. "You don't look like you can't come up with the money, so stop nagging."
Only then did Master Wen turn his gaze to Boss Sun and raised an eyebrow at him: "You can ask for money, but let me see the IOU."
"What IOU?"
Boss Sun was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened. "How could we, the pirates, have a loan agreement if we kidnapped someone? Hurry up! If you don't want your brother to get into trouble, pay him the ransom."
"Oh, it's the kidnappers!"
Master Wen's voice suddenly turned cold and stern, "Who gave you the courage to ask us for money?"
Sun Shisan almost jumped up when he heard this: "Okay, I think you are tired of living!"
“Damn it!”
Master Wen's cold eyes revealed a hint of fear: "Come here! Capture them all, tie them up and send them to the authorities!"
As he finished speaking, a group of guards rushed in from outside the door.
"Brothers, come on! Smash this bank and all the money will be ours!" Boss Sun drew his weapon and led the pirates forward.
The two sides fought, and the bank became a mess.
But as soon as they started fighting, the pirates covered their stomachs, foamed at the mouth, and fell to the ground.
Along with this, the pirates' fellow pirates cried out in fear: "Oh no, the food we just ate is poisonous!"
Yes, it is poisonous, but it’s not the snacks that are problematic, it’s the tea.
Lingzhi just discovered that the previous tea was not really good tea, but something with added ingredients.
Most of the pirates were poisoned and collapsed on the ground, and a few of them, including Boss Sun, were quickly subdued by the surrounding guards.
Lingzhi had been hiding in the corner of the table. Seeing that the situation was settled, she rushed towards Xiao Qingyun.
Unexpectedly, Master Wen stopped him: "Why is there a female pirate left behind?!"
"What female pirate? I'm his woman!"
Lingzhi pointed at Xiao Qingyun and explained righteously.
In fact, what she wanted to say was "friend", but she was nervous and her tongue slipped.
But none of this matters. Previously on the boat, didn't Xiao Qingyun deceive the pirates by claiming that she was his woman?
Since he could use her, she could certainly use him.
"His woman?"
Mr. Wen's expression was as surprised as if he had discovered a new world.
Turning around and seeing that Xiao Qingyun did not deny it, he was even more surprised and looked up at the Ganoderma lucidum carefully.
"Her face is covered in black dust, and her hair is a mess, but even so, her eyes are still clear. Yeah, not bad. Once she washes herself, she should be a real beauty!"
The tone was as if saying, "Wash it and it won't be dirty anymore."
Lingzhi smiled and kicked him twice.
Master Wen covered his foot and cried out in pain: "You'll never get married if you're this violent!"
Lingzhi clapped his hands and said, "Thank you for your blessing."
Just at this moment, the shopkeeper had already come with the government officials.
Xiao Qingyun did not reveal his identity and left everything to Mr. Wen to negotiate and handle.
After a while, the pirates were taken away by the government officials, and the bank returned to peace.
The shopkeeper and his men cleaned up the things that had been smashed and damaged.
Master Wen took Lingzhi and Xiao Qingyun to the back hall and considerately got them new clothes to change into.
When Lingzhi changed her clothes and washed her face, Master Wen was so shocked that he dropped the teacup in his hand, "A-Li?!"
"What?"
Lingzhi looked back at him in equal shock.
She had heard the name Ali twice, the last time from Xiao Qingyun.
Do I really look a lot like her?
"She is not A-Li, she is Lingzhi, a maid in the Shen Mansion. She just looks a bit like A-Li." Xiao Qingyun walked in from behind Lingzhi and said when he saw this.
"Miss Lingzhi, I'm sorry, I lost my composure."
Master Wen gave Lingzhi an apologetic smile, then stood up and walked back and forth a few steps. He seemed very excited and showed no sign of calming down at all.
Lingzhi sat aside and looked at him strangely.
