Chapter 18
The sound of drums and music made the already noisy hall on the first floor even more noisy.

Compared with Song Er's impatient look, Lin Ji just walked along the window without changing his face, and glanced at the situation on the first floor from time to time.

Most of the time, his eyes fell on Master Xing Chi.

"Although this monk is a person who does not taboo meat and vegetables, it is too outrageous for him to appear in a brothel wearing a monk's robe so boldly."

Besides Master Xing Chi, Lin Ji also saw a new face.

As the head catcher in Qingyang County, Lin Ji knew all the people in the county who often hang out in Minghualou.

It's nothing more than the prodigal sons of those wealthy local rich families, or a few gangsters who have no money to return their prodigal families.

After that, there are those shameless hooligans from the Tiger Head Gang.

But at this moment, the unfamiliar faces appearing on the first floor are not among these.

It was a young son, wearing a blue gown, with his hair tied up in a bun, and he looked quite handsome.

The young master had only been here for a while, and Lin Ji saw many girls on the second floor, sizing up each other quietly.

"Song Er, who is that person, why haven't I seen him before?" Lin Ji asked.

Song Er glanced in the direction Lin Ji pointed, and said with a smile, "Oh, that's Mr. Zheng from Liangcheng, Zheng Qishuo."

"He came from Liangcheng? When?" Lin Ji frowned.

"Boss, during the time you were away on business, it has been less than half a month." Song Er said in a low voice, "Isn't Liang Cheng going back now? This Mr. Zheng has settled down in our Qingyang county."

Lin Ji nodded calmly, with a bit of boredom on his face.

It's Liangcheng again!

The reason why he came to Minghualou today is not because the unmasked Qing Dynasty official came from Liangcheng.

Unlike Mr. Zheng, the Qing Dynasty official arrived today.

If nothing else happened, Liang Cheng is still blocked by the ghost king, how did she get out?
After leaving Liangcheng, it is Qingyang County. Could it be that she left Liangcheng half a month ago and spent this time in the wilderness?

Thinking of these things that are not right, Lin Ji feels very troublesome.

But he is the head catcher of Qingyang County, if any evil spirit appears in Qingyang County, he can't ignore it.

The drumming downstairs gradually died down.

The guests seemed to be getting impatient, and they all shouted to see the beauty from Liang Cheng.

The old bustard continued to evade, saying that the girl was still dressing up, so please be patient.

But Song Er told Lin Ji that this was just a ploy by the old bustard to whet the appetite.

While waiting, Lin Ji inadvertently made eye contact with Master Xing Chi downstairs.

Then I saw Master Xingchi's eyes lit up, got up and went upstairs.

A moment later, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

Yanyan took the initiative to get up and open the door, her eyes were still somewhat curious, as if she had never seen a monk visiting a brothel.

Lin Ji got up and gave a salute: "Master Xingchi, long time no see."

"Benefactor Lin, stay safe and sound." Master Xingchi clasped his hands together and bowed slightly.

After inviting Master Xingchi to take a seat, Lin Ji said bluntly: "Master Xingchi came to Minghualou, but there is something wrong with the Qing people who are going to appear later?"

"Why did Benefactor Lin make such a statement?"

"I came from Liangcheng at this time, is it still necessary to talk about it?" Lin Ji chuckled softly, "That is to say, Master Xingchi can come and go freely in Liangcheng, but how can a woman who is begging for life in a brothel come with Masters on par?"

Master Xing Chi couldn't help laughing.

"Benefactor Lin deserves to be a head arrester."

"Thank you." Arching his hands, Lin Ji asked, "Tell me, what's going on?"

"This matter is not complicated. The so-called Qingyuan is a swan girl."

"Fox girl again?!" Song Er on the side was shocked, and the blood on his face lost a lot.

Although he didn't personally experience what happened yesterday, he heard some of it by chance.

Lin Ji was also about to ask questions.

Master Xingchi shook his head and said with a smile, "This swan is not that fox."

Hearing this, Lin Ji also reacted, and then gave Song Er a hard look.

"What a fuss! You are asked to read more books on weekdays. If you don't know a few big characters, it's embarrassing."

"It's your lesson." Song Er shrank his neck.

Master Xingchi said: "A few days ago, the poor monk stayed in Liangcheng and was out of breath, so he went out for a wandering, and came across a swan following Mr. Zheng and his party. He thought it was a monster trying to harm people, so he went out to capture it .”

"Who ever thought that after I caught the swan, I realized that things were not what I thought."

"Oh?" Lin Ji took over at the right time.

Master Xingchi looked at Lin Ji with satisfaction, took a sip of tea, and continued: "The swan is about to take shape, and asked its chance, saying that it happened to meet Mr. Zheng and his party by a lakeside."

"Zheng Gongzi saw the beauty of the swan, so he sang a poem, and said that if the swan turns into a daughter, he would like to stay with her for the rest of his life."

"This is just talking about it." Lin Ji understood, "This swan girl is considered to have a chance. It happened at the moment of transformation, and she was lucky."

Master Xingchi nodded and said with a smile: "The old monk saw that the swan girl was eager to repay her kindness, so he helped her transform, thinking that it would be a beautiful thing."

"Today, I came to Minghualou to witness that lovers finally get married."

While speaking, there was a sudden silence downstairs.

The guests, who were blushing from drinking, all looked at the stairs on the second floor.

Some people even drooled when they saw it, and they didn't even know it.

Lin Ji also looked over with interest, his eyes clear.

"The enchantment of monsters."

"It's the joyful Dharma of the Buddhist school." Master Xingchi smiled embarrassedly.

Lin Ji was stunned for a moment, and took a deep look at the fat-headed and big-eared monk, feeling quite speechless.

But the swan girl is indeed extremely beautiful, even Yingyingyanyan who is beside Lin Ji is considered to be the best, but in front of the swan girl, she seems to be inferior by three points.

"Slave Su Qiong, play a song for all the guests."

An ethereal voice sounded, and the swan girl moved lightly with lotus steps, and slowly came to the stage.

The brisk music, accompanied by the beating of the green little finger on the zither, jumped vividly in everyone's ears.

"This swan girl has only been transformed for a few days, and she is familiar with the rhythm?" Lin Ji looked at Master Xingchi.

"Miss Su has excellent comprehension when it comes to rhythm."

"Master, someday you will become a vulgar, and you can still be a matchmaker."

"Haha, benefactor Lin has won the prize."

Lin Ji shook his head slightly, he hadn't spoken yet.

Even if this guy can't be a matchmaker, it must be easy for him to come to the brothel to be a tortoise and train a young lady.

After the song was played, the guests were still immersed in the beauty just now.

But the hu girl got up and slowly came to Mr. Zheng.

Seeing the beautiful woman coming, Mr. Zheng quickly stood up and saluted.

"Master Zheng, do you still remember the slave family?"

"Who is the girl?"

"Three years ago, the Zheng family in Liangcheng helped the victims and saved the lives of the young and old of the slave family." Hu Nu's eyes were slightly red, "Now that her parents have passed away, the slave family is alone, but the kindness of the Zheng family three years ago dare not forget .”

"If Mr. Zheng likes the slave family, he will take the slave family back. Being a wife or concubine, or being a cow or a horse, the slave family is absolutely the same."

Mr. Zheng's eyes widened, obviously he didn't expect such a good thing.

On the second floor.

"I made it up for the old monk." Master Xingchi seemed very proud.

Lin Jigang was about to make fun of it, but suddenly, his heart throbbed.

Master Xing Chi's expression also changed.

Then, there was a loud bang.

A big hole was directly opened on the roof of Minghua Building, and the beams collapsed, killing and injuring many guests.

The moonlight shone into Minghualou, and a Taoist priest in a green robe jumped down from the entrance of the cave.

"Bold monster, die!"
