Chapter 1: Old Friend of the Qianyan Army
"Gu Sanqiu, Gu Xiangjun, let me ask you again, why did you sneak out at night to disturb public order, and even trespass into private homes and dig up the landscape pond?"
"So, maybe it's because... I want to find a treasure chest?"
In the interrogation room, the man in ancient costume and with a serious expression was instantly defeated.
"Who would put treasure chests in those places in this day and age!"
"Do you think those places are safer than the major banks in Liyue? What kind of mentality is this!"
(＊｀皿′＊)丿
"Well, don't be angry. You see, I was very careful this time and didn't get discovered by the public. It's all thanks to your education by the Qianyan Army, right?"
"...You mean to say that our Qianyan Army has trained a thief who is gradually becoming better?!"
(╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that. It was just a slip of the tongue. Please don't take it to heart."
The young man in a black robe waved his hands repeatedly and showed a flattering smile.
"Um, can I leave now?"
"Go? Where do you want to go? Are you going to dig for your so-called treasure chest? I think your next step is to go directly to the Golden House, right?"
"Hey, you are slandering me, pure slander!"
"Forget it, I won't argue with you any more."
The man in armor had an expression that said "I'm so tired and don't want to talk" and raised his right hand and waved towards the door.
"As per normal procedure, I will lock him up in the confinement room for three days."
Gu Sanqiu was carried up with an honest look on his face. Although his actions were indeed a little abnormal, he still didn't dare to "attack the police" on the Qianyan Army's territory.
"Hey, buddy, what a coincidence, you are also in jail."
In the confinement room, a girl with long hair swung her legs gently and waved to Gu Sanqiu who walked in.
"I see that you are also an energetic guy. How about it? Are you interested in booking a special service of the Wangsheng Hall?"
"Since we're friends, I can give you a 20% discount. And as long as you book our Wangsheng Hall's special service, even if you die in Cuijue Slope, Tianqiu Valley, or even some remote place in Jueyunjian, I can bring you back."
The girl in the black hat gently tapped her chin with her index finger: "If you have any additional needs, perhaps this hall master can also give you a happy funeral package?"
"Hehe, maybe this is also a direction for business expansion."
"We are all in the confinement room now, so we don't have to think about these things..."
"I didn't expect to meet you today, so..."
Gu Sanqiu took out an exquisitely shaped box from his arms, which was carved with Mora and dragon patterns.
"Repertoire?"
"Ho ho ho, come on, come on, I'll show you how powerful this hall master is!"
So, three days later——
"Three."
"King bomb!"
Gu Sanqiu raised his head and looked at the girl in front of him expressionlessly: "Explain?"
“Show your momentum! This is the momentum of the master of the Wangsheng Hall!”
"That's fine."
Gu Sanqiu put the cards in his hand in front of the girl's eyes.
"Next, how will the great Lord Nutcracker finish his moves ?"
"Well……"
Hu Tao pouted and looked at the two decks of cards in her left and right hands, then raised her head and secretly glanced at Gu Sanqiu.
"Don't even think about it. Ever since you played the trick of swapping two decks of cards last time, as long as you are a peasant, I will always keep an eye on you before you play a card."
Gu Sanqiu held a string of wild mushrooms and chicken in his mouth and said, "By the way, Wangsheng Hall is not far from Chihuyan. Why don't you bring any food with you every time you are in solitary confinement? Why do you always eat my free food?"
"I don't have such a convenient ability as you. So how did you do that move? The Eye of God?"
Hu Tao grabbed the cards with both hands, and a clean white "large water drop" appeared from behind him. It picked up the golden shrimp ball with rich fragrance and gently fed it into Hu Tao's mouth.
"Hmm~ This taste, these are the large tiger prawns that Xinyuexuan supplies in limited quantities every month, what a treat~"
"Well, I'll send the bill to..."
"Hello!"
Walnut rolled his eyes, and threw all the cards in his hand to the ground very neatly, and gathered the plate of food next to him.
"We are all good friends, but you are charging me for a plate of golden shrimp balls? This is too much!"
Walnut's cheeks puffed up with anger, and then he used both hands to stuff the remaining golden shrimp balls into his mouth.
"Don't be like the past..."
"Swallow it before you speak."
"You said yourself that the ingredients are in limited supply each month. I'm glad I let you eat such fresh food in the confinement room. I'm not charging you the service fee."
Gu Sanqiu had a blank expression on his face: "You ate my golden shrimp balls and even threw my cards to cheat. What's the difference between you and those old men who regretted their moves at the port?"
"It's okay. You two probably won't have this chance next time."
The two men's expressions froze, and they looked towards the door of the confinement room in unison. A tall and strong figure was staring at them with his hands folded.
"Hey, Coach Fang Shitou, long time no see~"
Walnut waved her hand enthusiastically: "Sanqiu brought a lot of food, do you want to eat some?"
"Don't listen to her."
Gu Sanqiu stood up at the speed of light and shook the other person's hand with a smile on his face.
"Master Fang Pan, you have been away on official business. I am really terrified that you have come here to release us two criminals despite the hardship of the journey."
…
"I don't know what to say to you."
Fang Pan sighed, then pointed outside: "Let's go, the detention time is up, I hope I don't see you two again next time, and I can't let you stay in the same room during detention. You are here for vacation, right!"
"Oh, okay, we'll go right away."

Hu Tao stood up swiftly, cleaned up the garbage out of public conscience, and gave Gu Sanqiu a thumbs up.

Fang Pan held the weapon in his hand and looked at the two people's backs as they walked away together. He couldn't help but sigh with fatigue.
"Well, you said that one is the current head of the Wangsheng Hall, and the other is the only heir of the Liyue Incense Worshiper lineage."
"Why, why..."
"Hey, Coach Fang, I think these two youngsters are quite interesting. At least they are not like those other noble masters, right?"
"We are young, so what's wrong with making a fuss? As long as we don't make mistakes of principle, it will be one of the pleasures worth recalling in the future."
Fang Pan's expression changed and he looked at his subordinates beside him sharply.
"You little brat, were you lazy and listening to books when I was away on business? Tell the truth!"
"Don't I know you guys? How can you say such sour words with your low level of education?!"
After scolding his men and sending them away, Fang Pan looked at the two men leaving and couldn't help but sigh.
"The Fengxiang lineage and the Wangshengtang lineage are both great and powerful families that have inherited ancient traditions. It's a pity that they have fallen into decline today."
If he didn't have one or two old books at home, he wouldn't know this.
“Time does dilute everything.”
…
"Please don't send bills or anything like that to Wangsheng Hall, bye~"
(丿°▽°)丿
Hu Tao stretched out his hands and made a "super fierce" gesture with his fingers slightly bent, while Gu Sanqiu yawned, waved his hands, and walked towards his home.
After bathing, changing clothes, and dressing himself neatly, Gu Sanqiu held three incense sticks in his hands with a solemn expression and respectfully inserted them into the large cauldron in front of him, which was engraved with patterns of mountains, rivers, birds and beasts.
"Emperor Yan Wang, please bless me..."
Gu Sanqiu sneered: "My dear brother Zhongli, please bless me. Since I'm treating your hall master to the limited edition golden shrimp balls, please bless me to ship the goods tonight."
After the joke, Gu Sanqiu burned incense and candles twice more, and carefully recited the Gu family's secret confession prayer, before walking out of the room filled with fragrance and solemn atmosphere.
"Well, let's see what goodies we'll get tonight."
Gu Sanqiu gently moved his left hand forward, and a black void vortex appeared in front of him.
"Master Zhongli, please bless me with a golden light. I will definitely go to take care of the business of Wangsheng Hall tomorrow. At worst, I can buy a few coffins at a high price and use them as fuel."
Gu Sanqiu waved his right hand, and a pure golden fishing rod appeared in his hand. After a slight shake of his wrist, the thin fishing line fell into the whirlpool, which showed how profound his kung fu skills were.
"Hopefully you can give me something interesting."
