Chapter 320： : I'll take the lead

Mingyue Villa.

Bai Xiaoshu practiced all night, and after incorporating the last ray of spiritual energy into her dantian, she opened her eyes.

After practicing here for only one night, her originally stagnant cultivation showed signs of breakthrough! This is truly a paradise.

She opened the window, looked at the blooming peach blossoms outside the window, and took a breath of the sweet air. She really wished she could live here forever.

After having a delicious breakfast that contained a faint spiritual energy, Bai Xiaoshu planned to take a stroll in the garden. Yesterday, the time was too short, and she didn't even have time to appreciate the scenery here.

As a result, the maid handed over a beautifully wrapped gift box: "Miss Bai, this is a gift prepared for you by our owner. You are welcome to come to our villa at any time in the future. This is the tour album of the villa, you can see it look."

Prepared gifts? Come and play anytime "in the future"?

Bai Xiaoshu immediately understood the implication of the maid's words. She was giving an order to expel guests.

In the box, there is not only a bottle of spirit rejuvenation liquid that Shen Yizhi promised before, but also a set of skin care products.

She originally said she wanted to buy a set, but now it seems she won’t need it.

She closed the gift box, picked up the album and flipped through it.

It introduces the scenery in the villa with pictures and texts, and also appends a detailed explanation of the tickets at the end.

You have to have a ticket to enter the villa, and all kinds of consumption in the villa have to be paid for separately.

However, is the price of this ticket too expensive?

There are five types of tickets, divided according to star rating.

The one-star ticket is 100 taels, and you can stay in the villa for one day.

Two-star tickets cost 289 taels, and you can stay in the villa for three days.

Three-star tickets are 459 taels and can stay for five days.

Four-star tickets cost 888 taels and can stay for ten days.

With full-moon tickets, you can enter the villa at any time, with no time limit, and all consumption in the villa will be discounted at 20%. However, this kind of ticket is not sold to the public, but needs to meet one of the following conditions to obtain it:

Those who are pure in heart; those who possess merit and virtue; those whose skills are close to the Tao.

How to judge whether these conditions are met?

Those who are pure and kind-hearted are the same on the outside and the same on the outside. They have never done any evil in their lives, have never committed any murders, and have never had evil thoughts. Their hearts are like glass, unstained by dust.

The heavenly mirror hung on the gate of the villa can trace a person's past, judge what is right and wrong, good and evil, and whether one's heart is pure and kind can be revealed by looking in front of the mirror.

Those who possess merit are not judged by humans, but by the law of heaven. Whether a person has merit or not is invisible to the naked eye. It is also necessary to use a heavenly mirror.

If the body has merit, the figure shown in the mirror will emit a golden light of morality. This is the so-called merit added to the body, which is clear at a glance.

The third item needs to be tested in the Taoist pavilion outside the villa. If the Taoist bell rings, it means that the conditions are met.

The more Bai Xiaoshu looked down, the colder her heart became.

Is she pure of heart? She considers herself not a bad person, but she is definitely not a pure good person either. This is no good.

Have meritorious deeds? She didn't know for sure, but it was very likely that she didn't have it. How could merit be so good? It is estimated that only the kind of people who spend their whole life doing good deeds and benefiting the world can gain merit.

As for the last one, who is almost Taoist in skills, haha, if you want to say what she is best at, it is nothing more than forming formations.

Before coming here, she felt that she was somewhat talented in formations, but after coming here, she knew what it means to be "there are people outside the world, and there is heaven outside the world".

Her level is not even considered a minor success, let alone "nearly qualified".

So she doesn’t have to think about the full moon ticket.

You can only spend money and be a krypton gold player.

Bai Xiaoshu dug around and found that she only had two hundred taels of silver left.

“Where can I buy this ticket?”

The maid was delighted: "I can do it right here. What kind do you want to buy?"

The owner of the hotel said that for every ticket sold, the maid can get a 1% commission.

For example, if she sells a one-star ticket worth 100 taels, she can get one tael of silver! It’s equivalent to getting half of your monthly money for free!

The maid took out a long and narrow box from the treasure bag, pushed open the lid, and the tickets were neatly placed inside like works of art.

The ticket is carved from jade bamboo, one finger long and three fingers wide, a thin piece, as clear as jade, with a painting carved on it, with the entire Mingyue Villa in the background, and a crescent moon hanging in the sky. Decorated with a star, the right side is engraved with "Mingyue Villa" in four cartoon round fonts.

is carved according to the font written by Shen Yizhi.

On the back, Tianzhou Lake is used as the background, with lotus flowers blooming and a red koi carp jumping out of the water. The picture is lifelike and full of interest.

This koi carp is carved in the image of red brocade.

This is a one-star ticket.

The only difference between other two-star, three-star and four-star tickets is the number of stars. The full moon ticket is changed from a crescent moon to a full moon without stars.

These exquisite bamboo plaques are all made by the bamboo carving master Li Ke. In addition, the jade bamboo itself is valuable, and the ticket alone is worth a lot of money.

Bai Xiaoshu held it in her hand and played with it for a while.

"With this ticket, except for a few places, you can go to most places in the villa." The maid explained the specific situation to Bai Xiaoshu, and then politely withdrew.

Bai Xiaoshu suddenly remembered something and called the maid, "Please help me give this to your owner."

She handed the large melon seed she got from Zhao Zeyuan to the maid.

She didn't figure out what it was or what it was used for, so she simply gave it to Master Shen. After all, if it weren't for her, she wouldn't be able to get it, not to mention that Master Shen also gave her a bottle of spiritual liquid as a gift.

Looking at the only one hundred taels left in her hand, Bai Xiaoshu felt a little worried. This little money is probably not enough to have a meal in the villa, right?

Unexpectedly, she would also have to worry about money one day.

But at least I have gained one day, so I have to write a letter back quickly and tell my family about the situation here.

The situation of other people in the villa is similar to Bai Xiaoshu.

Most of the money I had was wiped out by yesterday’s auction.

But they hadn't stayed enough at the villa, so they simply came to the pavilion outside the villa to try to see if they could get the full moon tickets.

The sage Liu Jingran, the master of chess, Lin Bingyi, the master of calligraphy and painting, Pei Hao, the poet Xie Fang, the jade carver Wen Daoming and others all came here.

If every circle is a pyramid, then they are the people standing at the top of the tower. So they still have some confidence in getting the full moon tickets.

Only one person can enter the pavilion at a time, so who should come first?

While everyone was modestly declining, Xie Fang came out: "Since everyone is afraid of taking the lead, let me first experience the power of this bell."

Why is everyone afraid of taking the lead? Xie Fang's words can be said to have offended most of the people.

But everyone also knows that he has a straightforward personality, and they don’t really care about him.
