Han Shimou

Tang Zhou was walking in the Luoyang Night Market. There were lights and festoons on both sides of the street.Tang Zhou seemed to be very happy, humming a ditty, suddenly he stopped, wiped the swollen package in his arms again, found that it was still there, he was relieved, and continued to move forward with a bright smile on his face.

Just a few days ago, after Tang Zhou handed over 200 taels of gold and a secret letter to Feng Xuan, the stray dog ​​knew how to do it and gave him [-] taels of gold.In this way, Tang Zhou and his previous savings raised a thousand taels of gold.With this thousand taels of gold, he can save his poor Jiao Lang'er from deep water and sea of ​​fire.

Tang Zhou sighed a little, recalling the past.He was born in a poor family and was originally a thief, but he has a childhood sweetheart, Jiao Lang'er, who is as beautiful as a flower.The two have been friends since they were young, and they have made a private decision for life, and they agreed to stay together for a lifetime.However, Jiao Lang'er's father was a gambler, so he lost Jiao Lang'er to a Luoyang merchant.After Tang Zhou found out, all thoughts were lost, and he left his hometown, hoping to find the Luoyang merchant and take Jiao Lang'er back from him.

Tang Zhou traveled long distances and came to Luoyang. After searching for a long time, he finally found the merchant.The merchant told Tang Zhou that he resold it to others.Tang Zhou was angry and didn't dare to vent his anger. He was just a commoner and had no power to kill, so he had to embark on a journey to find someone.It wasn't until later that he joined the Yellow Turban Sect and became Zhang Jiao's chief disciple.

Tang Zhou finally saw Jiao Lang'er again by chance in a brothel in Luoyang.Searching and searching, after untold hardships, this search lasted for several years.Tang Zhou's accumulated feelings for many years erupted, and he was about to redeem Jiao Lang'er's body, but the procuress of the brothel offered a sky-high price for Tang Zhou, 1000 taels of gold.

This sky-high price, if Tang Zhou spent his whole life a few years ago, it would be impossible to raise it.But now, his status as Tang Zhou is different, he is taught by the Yellow Turban.From then on, Tang Zhou tried his best to raise money, just to save his poor Jiao Lang'er as soon as possible.

Today, today.Emperor Tian paid off, he Tang Zhou finally raised the 1000 taels of gold.He wants to redeem Jiao Lang'er's body, and then keep his promise, marry her, marry her, and stay together for the rest of his life.Give birth to five or six children, grow old together, watch the house full of children and grandchildren, until they leave this world with a smile hand in hand.

Tang Zhou thought well, because this was only one step away from his dream.Tang Zhou laughed countless times today, but his mouth couldn't stop curling up.

"Jiao Lang'er, little Zhou Zi is here."

Tang Zhou secretly slandered in his heart, unknowingly, he had walked in front of a magnificent building. On the plaque of the building there were three golden characters of 'Qingcheng Building' written in flying dragons and phoenixes.Qingcheng Tower is the No. [-] brothel in Luoyang, and Luoyang is the capital city of Han Dynasty. Naturally, there are many rich and noble sons here.

Qingcheng Tower is also known as the "Hundred Gold Tower", which means simple and easy to understand. Play here and get a hundred gold overnight.The girls in Qingchenglou are famous for being beautiful and beautiful.

Rumor has it that Qingchenglou's procuress has extremely high requirements. She has to carefully select every girl who comes into Qingchenglou, with an attitude of preferring to be lacking, and she usually doesn't want to have a little blemish.In order not to smash the signboard of Qingchenglou's No. [-] brothel, the gain outweighs the loss.

"Young Master Tang, you are being polite here."

Standing at the door are two girls, one red and one green, both of whom are beautiful in appearance and fair in complexion. At first glance, they look somewhat similar, and they are a pair of sisters.Tang Zhou came to Qingcheng Tower not many times. Although he usually stood outside the building and looked at him, but after a long time, the sisters also knew him.

At the same time, Sister Hua also heard the story of him and Jiao Lang'er.The same is a fallen person in Tianya, sister Hua also sympathizes with his encounter with Jiao Lang'er, so Tang Zhou usually stands outside the building and doesn't say anything sarcastic.

"Damei, Xiaomei. Xiaosheng is very polite. Thank you for taking care of me on weekdays. Xiaosheng has raised enough gold taels. Today I am here to pick up Jiao Lang'er."

Tang Zhou was modest and polite, and bowed to his sister Hua in return.Sister Hua was overjoyed after hearing this, but soon became anxious again, ignoring the politeness with Tang Zhou, and hurriedly said.

"Oh, Mr. Tang, I seem to have heard someone order Jiao Lang'er just now, and that person's rough voice is not a good guest.

Mr. Tang quickly entered the building, went to find Guomei's mother, and redeemed herself with Jiaolang'er.This painful thing, one less time is one time.Sister Jiao Lang'er has suffered from sex and moon for six years.Today, I finally guarded the cloud to see the moonlight, and waited until Mr. Tang redeemed him.Mr. Tang, you don't want her to suffer any more. "

Hearing this, Tang Yiyi's delicate face couldn't help twitching. After nodding to his sister Hua, he took a big step and ran quickly into Qingcheng Tower.

"Guomei mother! Guomei mother!"

Inside the Qingcheng Building, golden lights are shining everywhere, and the splendor is endless. There are five or six lotus platforms in the large lobby. There are water flowing on the lotus platforms, and lotus flowers are planted beside them.There are all kinds of people walking in the corridor upstairs, and there are fifty or sixty private rooms upstairs.

Hearing Tang Zhou's yell, the people above stopped in their tracks and looked curiously.At this time, a man in a red dress, with a beautiful face of lotus, blushing cheeks, starry eyes, and an intoxicating charm in his bones, walked gently from upstairs step by step.

"It turned out to be Mr. Tang. Why did you forget the rules of the Qingcheng Tower. There is no noise here, if you disturb the guests again, Guo Mei will no longer care about Jiao Lang'er's face and send you away."

When Guo Mei first saw her, she thought she was a girl in her early thirties, but when she looked carefully, she could see the marks left by the ruthless years on her face.It turns out that she is already forty.However, the charm is still there, the red lips opened and closed unknowingly, as if attracting a kiss.It's one, Mei Niangzi.

"Mother Guomei, please calm down. I have already raised a thousand taels of gold, and I came here today to redeem Jiao Langer's body. Because I was anxious, I offended you so much just now, please calm down, Mother Guomei."

Tang Zhou didn't dare to offend Guo Mei. When she was young, Guo Mei attracted countless bees. She was all rich and powerful. Although she is a young lady, she still has ties to many former lovers.If Tang Zhou annoys Guomei, Guomei only needs one word to turn him into a street rat that everyone shouts and beats in this Luoyang capital.

"Oh, Mr. Tang was able to raise a thousand taels of gold. Hmm... hey, you two are also a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks. It turns out that Guomei promised you that if one day Mr. Tang can raise a thousand taels of gold, she will be a jerk." Lang'er leaves. Although Guomei is a lowly person, she also knows shame and honors promises.

However, Mr. Tang.During this half hour, Guomei dare not accept your gold.Please hand over the gold in half an hour and take Jiao Lang'er away. "

"Why do I have to wait half an hour. Mother Guomei, I have silver on me. Now, this is 1000 taels of gold, which is exactly the same. Mother Guomei, where is Jiao Lang'er, where is Jiao Lang'er?"

Tang Zhou couldn't help catching Guo Mei. It's hard to describe with any words how he feels now. His heart seems to be being roasted by raging fire, and the appearance of Jiao Lang'er in his mind is like shock waves hitting his heart. mind.Right now, the only thought in his mind is to immediately take Jiao Lang'er away from this superficially luxurious paradise, but in the secret is a ghostly place with boundless sea of ​​suffering!

"Mr. Tang, please respect yourself! Since Guomei opens the door to do business, of course there will be a deal. Can't you understand what Guomei meant just now? Jiao Lang'er was ordered by a customer, and now she is receiving customers. If you make trouble again, you will be punished." Don't blame Guomei for being rude and doing things that Guomei doesn't want to do!"

Guo Mei frowned, her green eyebrows were frowning, despite her frail body, she knew a little cleverness, a pair of small white hands were like swimming fish, and they slipped out of Tang Zhou's claws.Then he grabbed Tang Zhou's hand and shouted with a stern expression.

"Haha. I thought who it was. It turned out to be Tang Fazi. Don't Tang Fazi usually talk about etiquette, why did he lose his composure and make a fuss here today?"

Suddenly, an extremely ugly man who looked like a strong man with pockmarks on his face made fun of him upstairs.Behind him, followed a slender man with big watery eyes, dark skin but elf, and dark cloud-like hair reaching to his heels.Wearing a blue silk dress, a girl about 25 or [-] years old.

"Ma Yuanyi, why are you here! Well, Jiao Lang'er!"

Tang Zhou heard the voice familiar, and looked up, it was his colleague Ma Yuanyi, one of the 36 leaders of the Yellow Turban Sect.Tang Zhou and Ma Yuanyi have their own reasons for disagreement because of their personality differences.Ma Yuanyi's father was a black man who had been a bandit in the mountains. Ma Yuanyi had lived with bandits since he was a child, so his temper was naturally a bit ruffian.

Although Tang Zhou also did sneaky things, but it was forced by life. He also worked with a poor scholar, read the books of sages for several years, and understood etiquette and righteousness.During their time together, Tang Zhou felt that Ma Yuanyi was vulgar, while Ma Yuanyi felt that Tang Zhou was hypocritical.Although they are colleagues on the surface, they often fight openly and secretly secretly.

In particular, Ma Yuanyi found out that Tang Zhou's hands and feet were not clean several times, and he looked down on this person who said one thing with his mouth and another in secret.Therefore, Ma Yuanyi secretly reported Tang Zhou's bad habits to Zhang Jiao, Zhang Jiao understood that he was his disciple, but did not take much action.

And Tang Zhou, who was careful and thoughtful, more or less guessed that it was Ma Yuanyi who stabbed him in the back.He also hates him to the bone.On weekdays, relying on his status as Zhang Jiao's chief disciple, no matter on the surface or in secret, he would trample on Ma Yuanyi's dignity and laugh at his vulgarity.

Therefore, Ma Yuanyi also wanted to eat his flesh and blood, and tried his best to get revenge.Finally, he learned from one of his subordinates that Tang Zhou seemed to be obsessed with a girl named Jiao Lang'er in Qingcheng Tower.

As soon as Ma Yuanyi heard the news, his bad intentions came.

"Hmph, on the surface, I'm afraid of your status as Fazi, so I don't dare to turn against you. But it's a pleasure to use your beloved woman to vent your anger."
