I become a sage by eating books

Chapter 65

Qingcheng Mountain

Tianlong Village

The bonfire was brightly lit in the village, and all the bandits gathered together to drink and eat meat. The scene was quite spectacular.

"Brother, the people below are here to report that the brothers who were sent out on patrol today haven't come back yet. Do you want to send someone to look at it?" The third master Xiong Zhengying leaned over and said to the village owner Yao Tianlong.

Yao Tianlong gulped down a bowl of wine, wiped the wine stains from his mouth, waved his hand and said, "Go."

In the dark night, Xiong Zhengying ran wildly with the four bandits.Several people found traces of someone fighting in the forest at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain.

In the dark night, a few bandits held torches, and the crows in the woods quacked, adding a bit of weirdness to the already lonely night.

Xiong Zhengying jumped off his horse, carefully inspected the surrounding traces and ordered to the people traveling with him: "You guys look around to see if there are any traces of them."

"Yes, the third master." Several people answered in unison.

A quarter of an hour later, the investigators returned one after another. "Third heads, no trace of them has been found."

At this time, a bandit came to report, "Three heads of the family, there are signs of being dragged by a carriage in the direction leading to the county. There are a total of eight pairs of footprints. They should be them."

Hearing what the visitor said, Xiong Zhengying kept a straight face, and on the originally almost cold face, a smear of ferocity gradually appeared that could not be concealed.

At this time, a bandit said: "Third masters, what should we do now, Ah Da and the others were taken away by the government, right! Shall we send someone to the county to inquire about the situation?"

Xiong Zhengying glanced at the official road leading to the county seat. Although the night was pitch black and he couldn't see anything in front of him, the gloomy cold light in his eyes made people shudder. "Let's go back to the village first, and make a decision after reporting to the village master Ming."

"Drive", with a shout, several people disappeared into the night together, and the forest returned to silence.

Ning'an, who was far away in Lekang, knew nothing about what happened at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain.The next day, at dawn, Xiao Renhuai appeared outside Ning An's room.

"Brother Ning, how did you rest yesterday?" Xiao Renhuai asked politely.

Today Xiao Renhuai was wearing a long black robe, his hair was crowned with fine white jade, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he looked very happy.

Ning An frowned slightly, and his expression changed a few times. How could Xiao Renhuai's dress look so much like that fox today.

"Thank you Brother Xiao for your concern. I had a good rest yesterday. Why are you looking for Brother Xiao?"

After hearing Ning An's words, the smiles in Xiao Renhuai's eyes gradually spread, and then he said heartily: "That's good, I'm afraid that the servants will be rude, so I neglected Brother Ning and came here to take a look. This is the first time Brother Ning came to Fucheng. Why don't I show you around?"

Ning An also had this intention.Hearing that Lekang is the largest prefectural city after the capital, and Lekang's fine wines are famous all over the world, he really wants to see it. "Okay, I'll call Brother Chu and Brother Qin, and we'll set off in a while."

During the day, Lekang is more lively and prosperous. People come and go on the street, and merchants gather on both sides of the street, which is very lively.As the carriage moved forward, the sound of traffickers and pawns hawking could be heard from time to time.

"Brother Xiao, where are we going?" Looking at the noisy scene on the street, Ning An couldn't help asking Xiao Renhuai, if possible, he really wanted to go for a walk, that would be fun shopping!
Xiao Renhuai smiled mysteriously, "You will know soon."

A quarter of an hour later, the carriage stopped at the door of a building called Buguilou, and a servant came up immediately.

"Master Xiao is here, please go inside." The servant smiled flatteringly.Xiao Renhuai is the most distinguished son in Lekang City, so he has to be careful in serving him.

"Brother Ning, Brother Chu, Brother Qin, please!" Xiao Renhuai said to the three of them.

A few people walked into the building, and an unusually coquettish woman walked over immediately. "Hey, this is not our young master Xiao. I haven't seen you for a while, but the young master is getting more and more handsome?"

Xiao Renhuai opened his folding fan, showing a wanton smile. "Long time no see, Aunt Fang is getting more and more charming!"

Hearing Xiao Renhuai's words, the woman smiled enchantingly, her smile was captivating, "You kid, you actually made fun of me. Auntie, I am old and can't compare to you young people."

At this moment, the woman suddenly saw Ning An behind Xiao Renhuai, her eyes showed surprise.

"Hey, where is this young gentleman from? He looks so good." The woman named Fang Aunt said that she wanted to touch Ning An's face.

Ning An stepped back, a long sword and a folding fan blocked in front of him between the sparks of the electric fan.

"Auntie, don't make jokes anymore. This young master is a distinguished guest of my Xiao residence. Please arrange a seat with a wide view for us. Today, my young master wants to entertain my friends well." Xiao Renhuai restrained his smile, his eyes were a little displeased.

Aunt Fang chuckled, her eyes showed a trace of embarrassment and fear, and she was annoyed at how she was attracted by a young man with a weak crown. "Okay, okay, gentlemen, please follow me."

The Building of No Return is the largest entertainment place in Lekang, where you can see women with heavy make-up and dignitaries seeking pleasure everywhere.Looking at the scene in front of him, Ning An suddenly thought of a poem: Thousands of lights in the night market illuminate the blue clouds, and there are many people with red sleeves in the tall buildings.It's not like the usual days now, but I still know the music and songs.

"Sirs, please sit down. I'll go and get some good wine and good food served." Aunt Fang took Ning An and the others back to an elegant seat on the second floor. This place is facing the stage downstairs. It is indeed a place with a great view. Good good seat.

After Aunt Fang left, several women with heavy makeup came over immediately, and one of the women with a more prominent appearance leaned towards Xiao Renhuai. "Young Master Xiao, I haven't come to look for my family for so long, my family misses you so much!"

"Hey, you guys are new here, you look very unfamiliar! Would you like to have a few drinks with me?"

Several other women approached Ning'an, Chuqi and the others at the same time.Chu Qi and Qin Fei had never seen such a battle before, they all blushed and avoided the woman's approach.

Ning An sat there calmly, his thoughts had already flown to the sky, secretly wondering if this building of no return could be a brothel.If it was really a brothel, why would there be female customers? Could it be that the people of Lekang are so open that female relatives can also visit brothels?
Seeing that Ning An did not refuse, a woman was overjoyed.Not only is this young master handsome, he is also a distinguished guest of the Xiao family, so his status must be extraordinary.It's a lucky day for them to serve such a young master to drink!Seeing that this young man is gentle and gentle, he should be a man who has read a lot of poetry and books. Serving him is much more interesting than serving those vulgar men.

"My lord, I'll serve you wine!" said the woman.

The woman's voice brought back Ning An's thoughts, he sniffed his nose, and frowned when he smelled the smell of powder on the woman's body.

"No girl, I'll do it myself."

Seeing that Ning An didn't seem to like being served by women, Xiao Renhuai waved his hand and said, "Go down, my son doesn't need to be served."

"Yes!"

The women were taken aback for a moment, and reluctantly retreated.
