Help!My goddess is sick

Chapter 256

Lan Jiu and Zhu Yi flew all the way to the capital with their swords. They set off in the afternoon, and it was already dark when they arrived in the capital.

When the two of them were about to reach the gate of the city, they put away their swords and walked into the city.

Even in the evening, there were still people coming and going at the gate of the city, very busy, and laughter filled my ears.

Lan Jiu sighed: "As expected of a capital city, the level of prosperity is far from that of a small town, and the city walls are much higher."

Zhu Yi nodded: "The capital is the center of a country, and there are royal family members and high-ranking officials gathered here, so it is very grand."

Lan Jiu nodded and looked while walking, but she didn't find any Yurenfang after looking for a long time, so she pulled a passerby and asked, "Brother, do you know where Yurenfang is?"

"Yerrenfang?" The one who was pulled by her was a decent-looking middle-aged man in a long gown.

But after Lan Jiu asked about Yurenfang, the man showed some dissatisfaction on his face: "What are you doing asking about this? You also want to buy Yurenfang for fun?"

Lan Jiu was a little dazed by his sudden change of face: "No, I just want to take a look."

She didn't directly say that she was there to save people, that would be stupid.

But the expression on the man's face was even uglier. He didn't listen to Lan Jiu's explanation, shook off her hand and scolded angrily: "A group of unworthy things, they only know to look at the mermaid's coquettish posture for fun, or buy them back to do something wrong." What about you, beast! Bah! Don't think I don't know, who is a serious person to see that?"

Lan Jiu was dumbfounded by his scolding, she stood there blankly, Zhu Yi hurriedly patted her head: "It's okay, it's okay, he misunderstood."

The man walked away cursing, looking like he wished he hadn't seen Lan Jiu.

Lan Jiu: "...Is Yurenfang's reputation in the human race so bad?"

Zhu Yi didn't expect this, he pondered for a moment and said: "Maybe we were unlucky, and we happened to recruit someone who doesn't like Yurenfang, let's ask someone else."

It happened that a gentle aunt with a smile on her face and a little bit of richness passed by, Zhu Yi took a fancy to her at a glance, this face is blessed at first glance, she must be easy to talk to!

So he stopped the aunt confidently, and asked gently: "Madam, do you know where the Merman Square is? We came from other places and heard that there are sharks here. We are very curious and want to see it, but Don't know where, can you show us the way? Thank you very much."

However, the madam who was originally kind-hearted suddenly froze her smile, and then slowly frowned, Lan Jiu's heart skipped a beat, this familiar face-changing process.

At the next moment, the aunt suddenly grabbed Zhu Yi's hand, and asked puzzledly: "What are you doing there? What's so good about mermaids? You are young and decent-looking. I didn't expect you to think about these messy things too." It really is something that cannot be judged by its appearance, bah—”

Seeing Zhuyi's dull face after scolding, the aunt sighed again, and persuaded him in a good voice: "You, please don't be like those beasts, people are doing things and the sky is watching. If you do more evil, you will be reincarnated in the next life." You can only be a cow or a horse, you know?"

Zhu Yi: "I..."

"Ma'am, you misunderstood. We really have no other intentions to bother you."

Lan Jiu stepped forward to hold Zhu Yi, snatched him back from the aunt's hand, and hurried forward.

The aunt was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "Young man, you have such beautiful girls around you, don't worry about those mermaids!"

As soon as this remark came out, half of the people on the street looked over.

Candle meaning: "..."

Is it too late for him to find a crack in the ground and get in?
Lan Jiu dragged him all the way into the alley, finally getting rid of all kinds of prying eyes.

Zhu Yi leaned against the wall, feeling very complicated, never thought that he, who is a dignified god, would have a day when he would be cornered by others.

Lan Jiu's originally heavy mood suddenly became clear, and she leaned against Zhu Yi's side and smiled softly, "Actually, there are quite a lot of good people, they all think that Yurenfang is not good, can it also explain their In fact, you don’t agree with the actions of Yurenfang?”

"Yes." Zhu Yi said weakly, "I just didn't expect it to be so difficult for us to ask the way."

"It doesn't matter, someone will know." Lan Jiu stood at the entrance of the alley and watched for a while. This time, he didn't look for such a serious person. A man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks passed by, and Lan Jiu took the initiative to attack again.

"Brother, please stop. Do you know where the Yurenfang is?"

The man was taken aback at first, but he didn't expect that it was a young and beautiful beauty who blocked him, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yo, the girl is also interested in Yurenfang?" The man rolled his eyes and thought of something else. Just as he was about to say something, he caught a glimpse of Zhuyi walking to Lan Jiu's side with a sullen face from the corner of his eye.

The man was taken aback for a moment, and then he restrained his expression, "Who is this?"

Lan Jiu: "He is—"

"I am her husband."

Zhu Yi rushed to say it before Lan Jiu, Lan Jiu looked at him in surprise, but did not deny it, the man immediately said with a sneer: "Well, Yurenfang is on the third street in Xicheng, just across from Jucai Gambling Square. "

"Thank you." Finally asked, Lan Jiu heaved a sigh of relief, and hurried away with Zhuyi.

……

The Jucai gambling house in the west of the city is still easy to find, it is the largest gambling house in the entire capital, and it is brightly lit and lively at night.

From a distance, it is the most eye-catching street, but on the opposite side, two red lanterns hanging in front of the door can't hide the desertedness.

Lan Jiu and Zhuyi looked at each other, and Zhuyi went forward to knock on the door: "Is anyone there?"

There was no answer after knocking three times, Candlelight knocked three more times, this time there were finally footsteps inside, a guy in a long coat opened half the door, and looked at the two of them through the crack of the door: "Do you want to come?" what?"

"You Merren's Square, don't you open the door to welcome guests? We came here for the name."

The buddy raised his eyebrows, and then stretched out a hand: "If you want to enter Yurenfang, you have to show some sincerity first."

Zhu Yi squinted his eyes: "How much?"

The man stretched out a finger: "Ten taels of silver."

To enter a door, you have to pay ten taels of silver first, which is really black enough.

Zhu Yi randomly took a gemstone from her storage ring and threw it to him: "I came out in a hurry, I didn't bring any silver, so take this as the top."

The clerk took it over and looked at the light, and immediately smiled: "Young master is really generous, come on, please—"

Lan Jiu: "..."

She was welcomed in following the candlelight. The inside was completely different from the outside, and it was very lively.

The lobby is not like an ordinary store, with tables, chairs and benches. Instead, the entire space is filled with large water tanks, and a mermaid is tied to each tank.

Their wrists and waists are tied with thumb-thick iron chains, and the other end is nailed to the ground, so their range of movement is very limited.

There were many people standing around, looking here for a while, and going there for a while, and the front of each tank was not empty.
