Chapter 199 Young Master Lin Has Three Hobbies

Different world!

In the Prince Teng Pavilion, Lin Ye absorbed the literary spirit of the day, and found that the seal of the Prince Teng Pavilion had not been lifted, so he simply entered the world of gears.

Originally entering the gear world, he just wanted to set a hang-up time for himself in the real world. After all, it is possible that this time the time for absorbing literary energy will be longer, so he can save himself staying in Tengwang Pavilion together.

Only after returning to the gear world, Lin Ye discovered that the gear world had changed.

The two clock-like roulettes had the same loess-colored hour hands on the top and surface of the roulettes, but they turned green.

At the same time, some more messages appeared in Lin Ye's mind.

After receiving these messages, Lin Ye stared at the roulette with radiant eyes.

The functionality of the Time Wheel has been updated.

Originally, in his opinion, the function of the time roulette is to hang up in the two worlds, and transfer the number of days spent in the real world to the other world, and vice versa.

There is a limit to this kind of time roulette, that is, the number of days that Lin Ye hangs up cannot exceed the total number of days he has spent in the two worlds.

To put it bluntly, Lin Ye has lived in the real world for more than 20 years, plus the current few years in the other world, he can't hang up for more than 30 years at most.

However, this hang-up rule also gave Lin Ye a chance to exploit a loophole, that is, he could use the two worlds to hang up with each other to count the number of days of hanging up.

For example, he first chooses to hang up in another world for 20 years. In this way, although the 20 years in the real world are used up, but the other world has an extra 20 years of hanging up, he can use the time in the different world. Those twenty years of idle days are spent in the real world.

To put it bluntly, the number of on-hook days will not disappear, it will just shift back and forth.

But for Lin Ye, there was a problem that in the real world, he couldn't hang up for twenty years. He still had relatives and friends.

As the number of days spent in the other world increases, and the number of days in the real world decreases, the number of hang-up days in the other world will eventually decrease.

But this time the update of the time roulette gave him a solution to this problem.

energy!

He can use Confucianism and the power of merit to exchange for the number of days on the phone.

The power of merit is used to cultivate and cannot be exchanged for the number of days on the phone for the time being, but Wenqi can be. The reason why the time wheel will be updated is precisely because he has absorbed a lot of Wenqi in his body and has not been able to digest it, triggering the time roulette A request to trigger an update.

one day, two days...

As far as the half a day he has absorbed, he can already exchange for a year of on-hook days, and the most important thing is that he can choose to use these on-hook days in the different world or the real world at will.

Now let's see how much literary spirit Tengwangge Wenling will give him this time, he shouldn't be so stingy.

Different world.

Lin Ye is in a happy mood. Everything in the other world has been stable recently, and he can live a comfortable life.

Listen to Xuelou.

The largest theater troupe in Shangyang County, but even if it was the largest, there were only a dozen or so people in the past, and not many people went to the opera every day, so they could barely make ends meet.

Until Mr. Lin appeared.

Mr. Lin has three major hobbies, one of which is listening to operas, and every time Mr. Lin comes to Tingxuelou, he will give a lot of rewards, which is comparable to Tingxuelou's monthly income.

"Young Master Lin is here!"

"Really, Mr. Lin is here, so did you take the silver leaf again this time?"

"Xiao Tao, you are really worthless, you only know Yin Yezi, don't you want Mr. Lin's golden beans?"

"I don't dare to think that the golden bean is only available to a character like Sister Xue'er. I will be very happy to have a silver leaf."

Listening to the backstage of Xuelou, everyone in the theater troupe was very happy when they heard Mr. Lin came. Everyone in Shangyang City knew that Mr. Lin was generous, but the people in Xuelou knew how rich he was.

Silver leaves, gold beans.

This was specially cast by Mr. Lin. Ordinary silver leaves cost about two taels. Although the golden beans are only a few dollars, they are made of gold. One golden bean is worth half a year's income of ordinary people.

Generally, the gentlemen who come to listen to the opera will drop a few rewards when they are happy to hear it, but most of them are a few or tens of pennies, and those who are bold will also give a few ingots of silver, although the price is not the same as that of silver leaves. Almost, Mr. Lin's silver leaves are so beautiful, not only valuable but also beautiful.

Many people on the stage were reluctant to spend the silver leaves that Mr. Lin gave as a gift, but hid them instead.

But although Mr. Lin is generous, only Xue'er, the pillar of Jindouzi's Tingxue Tower, has ever obtained it, and every time Mr. Lin comes, he must play Xue'er.

"Sister Xue'er, what are you going to sing to Young Master Lin today?"

The woman called Sister Xue'er was wearing a blue dress with pleats, sitting in front of the dressing table thrushing her eyebrows.

The mirror on the dressing table is not the kind of brass mirror, but a glass mirror.

Xueer likes this kind of glass mirror very much, it allows her to see her face clearly when drawing her eyebrows. It is said that it was made by a glazed workshop outside the city. Although a mirror costs about ten taels of silver, ordinary people can't afford it , but as the pillar of Tingxue Tower, she naturally does not lack these ten taels of silver.

"I want to see the Tsing Yi that Xueer is wearing today. Xueer, you sing a song "Little Nujiao" for Mr. Lin. You sing a big show every day. Mr. Lin will get tired of listening to it too much at this age."

Tsing Yi is a leading role, in the play they are all dignified and decent characters.

But as a pillar of a theater troupe, Xue Er knows more than Tsing Yi. Even when she was very young, she learned some melodies from her master. The master said that her talent in melodies is better than Tsing Yi, but She never sang on stage.

Not every troupe can survive well, and not every troupe can have such a bold audience as Mr. Lin in Tingxuelou. Sometimes in order to maintain the livelihood of everyone in the troupe, they sing some It is also a helpless way to attract some drunkards with flattery.

Take Tingxuelou as an example. In the most difficult period, in order to maintain the troupe, the master would go to the troupe in other counties to sing operas every month. To maintain the livelihood of everyone in the troupe.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I think Xue'er wants to sing Xiao Nujiao, so she has to sing it privately for Mr. Lin. I don't know when Mr. Lin will invite us Xue'er to come and sing."

"Yeah, singing and singing, maybe you will live in the Lin Mansion in the future."

"Lin Mansion, I heard people say that the urinals used in Mr. Lin's mansion are all made of gold, and I don't know how rich you are to be able to afford them."

"Stop talking nonsense, no one makes a urinal out of gold, be careful if Mr. Lin hears it and will be upset."

Xue'er listened to the jokes of her companions, her expression became serious, and she interrupted immediately.

"Sister Xue'er, we're just joking, but everyone says Mr. Lin is here to listen to the opera. It's because you don't want to play, but what about you?"

"Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Lin just likes to listen to operas, if any of you talk nonsense like this again, don't come here as the backstage."

Seeing Xue'er's serious face, the little girls were frightened, because they had never seen Xue'er with such a serious look.

Xue'er didn't care what these little girls were thinking, now it was her turn to take the stage, she immediately put down her paintbrush, walked slowly to the side of the stage, and waited for the announcement to come on stage.

"Mr. Lin is really very elegant. He comes to Tingxuelou to listen to operas every day. Because of Mr. Lin, the tickets for Tingxuelou are now 30% higher than before."

"No way, I'm just a person, how can I increase the price of theater tickets?"

Lin Ye put a candied fruit into his mouth, and was a little puzzled when he heard Yang Butou's words. He used to think that singing was not good, but for some reason these years, he liked listening to opera more and more.

It may be because young people prefer LiveHuose now.

After all, I am still a young man.

"The most beautiful man in Shangyang City, Mr. Lin, often visits Tingxuelou. Many ladies from all over the world came to listen to the opera after hearing the news. If you don't believe me, take a look around us..."

Catcher Yang replied in a low voice. Lin Ye glanced around and found that there were quite a few young girls in Huaichun, and a few even happened to peek over, met his eyes, and immediately lowered their heads shyly.

"Also, Mr. Lin is also a well-known talent in our Shangyang City. How many scholars have followed you as an example. After that day's poetry meeting, Mr. Lin, after you showed up in a white cloak, the rich son of our city , but you are all imitating Mr. Lin’s dress, so now you can’t even buy white cloaks.”

"Looks like it was my fault. From now on, I can only invite people from Xuelou to sing at home."

Lin Ye smiled, he was considered a celebrity now, and he had a celebrity effect.

On the stage, at this moment Xueer came onto the stage in Tsing Yi and sang "Xuemei Godson".

"Miss Xue'er's singing skills have improved a lot."

When Xue'er finished singing and left the stage, Lin Ye praised her and gave her a tip as usual.

"By the way, let me ask your troupe master, do you have time recently?" Lin Ye called to stop the girl from the theater troupe who came to collect the tip.

"Mr. Lin, is there something wrong?"

"It's not that our catcher Yang said that there are too many people in your theater. I want to be quiet, and I am going to invite your theater troupe to my house to sing."

How much money was not mentioned.

With Mr. Lin's rich reputation in Shangyang City, he must not be short of money.

"Yes, there must be. I'll go tell the class leader right away."

The little girl was very happy. Going to sing at Mr. Lin's mansion, not only can she get more money, but she can also see the luxury of Mr. Lin's house. Is it true that gold is used to make urinals?

"Mr. Lin, you... I don't have time to watch the theater now. You should know something about what happened in the city recently."

Yang Butou looked at the back of the little girl running away happily, with a wry smile on his face. Ordinary people might not know about this matter. The yamen is still kept secret from the outside world, but the situation of Mr. Lin is different. For this case, he specially invited Daoist Qingfengguan Dingxuan, and Daoist Dingxuan should have told Mr. Lin about it.

As for Taoist Dingxuan breaking the rules by telling Mr. Lin about the case, that's not something he can handle, not even the magistrate of the county. As for the ruling and opposition parties.

"I heard from my master that something happened to several rich families. My master didn't mention it more specifically."

Lin Ye narrowed his eyes slightly. Half a day ago, Yang Butou went to Qingfeng Temple to find the old Taoist. After a while, he saw the old Taoist took Dawu and Yang Butou and they left the Taoist temple. After about an hour, the old Taoist and Dawu came back Taoist temple.

When he came back to the Taoist temple, the old Taoist went to chant scriptures in the Patriarch's Hall, which made him a little curious, so he stopped Dawu and learned what happened from Dawu.

Several people died in the city.

They are all sons of rich families, if the dead are killed, they will not be able to find the old master, and the reason why Catcher Yang and the others seek help from the old master is because the death conditions of these sons are very strange.

The three sons and brothers all died in their own rooms, with satisfied expressions on their faces, but their entire chests were torn open, and their hearts were gone.

Wu Zuo conducted an autopsy to confirm that all three of them had their hearts ripped out of their chests while they were still alive.

Having his heart removed alive, with a satisfied expression, Catcher Yang suspected that this case was not a normal homicide case, and that it might involve ghosts and monsters, so he invited the old Taoist.

But the old Taoist walked around these houses, looked at the bodies of the three young masters, and left after saying that it was either a ghost or a ghost.

It wasn't a ghost, so according to the rules of the other world, the yamen would naturally have to solve the case. In addition, the families of the three dead sons were quite powerful in Shangyang City, and they kept looking for the yamen to put pressure on them. It's really no time to listen to the show.

"Catcher Yang, don't be in such a hurry, there is no rush to solve the case, maybe you will get inspiration after listening to a scene?"

Lin Ye patted Yang Butou on the shoulder, picked up another candied fruit and threw it into his mouth.

...

...

Breeze view.

After the old Taoist finished reciting the scriptures, Dawu stood aside, hesitant to speak.

"Dawu, if you have something to say, just say it directly, what does it look like if you hesitate."

"Master, the deaths of those people are obviously related to ghosts, why do you say it's not ghosts?"

Dawu was very puzzled, he was in the bedroom of those young masters, and he smelled ghosts, it was impossible for the master not to notice it.

Hearing Dawu's words, the old Taoist sighed and said, "Dawu, what did you teach you as a teacher in the past, let's not interfere with the affairs of rich and noble families, otherwise our master and apprentice may fall into it one day."

"But...but what if the ghost continues to harm people?"

Dawu knew that his master taught him to be "cautious", but if he didn't catch this ghost, the ghost would continue to harm people.

"Let me ask you, when you were chanting sutras in front of the statue of the patriarch, did your younger brother look for you?"

"I found it."

"Then your junior brother asked you something?"

"I asked, but I didn't say that I smelled ghostly breath."

Dawu answered truthfully, the old Taoist nodded, and said meaningfully: "This is enough."
