Chapter 32 The Unique Places in Jiang'an City

Outside the cell of the county government, Xia Jingyun saw Wu Tutou with an arm injury.

Seeing Xia Jingyun, he got up excitedly, with admiration on his face, "Master Xia, you are really clever! I listened to your words and asked everyone to pretend to be unprepared. The thief really came at night!"

Xia Jingyun asked anxiously, "Where is he? Where is he?"

A look of embarrassment suddenly flashed across Wu Butou's face, "It's a pity that the thief's martial arts skills are not low, so he escaped anyway."

He immediately made amends: "But don't worry, although I was injured, I also wounded the thief, and his right arm holding the knife was also cut by me!"

Xia Jingyun:.
You're still proud, aren't you?
Do you think you are Li Chungang, and you are here to play the trick of exchanging arms?

This time the person ran away, I see you, oh no, what do you see me do!
If you walk on the road, you will kill me!

Forcibly suppressing the depression in his heart, he turned his head and glanced at the night, "Did you arrange a hunt?"

"It's arranged, don't worry, the two powerful and fast hands have already caught up, and the thief will definitely be arrested and brought to justice."

Xia Jingyun sighed, "Can those two beat you?"

"What are you talking about? I'm a headhunter for nothing. Don't say two people, it's three or four people."

Wu Butou was bragging about himself, but suddenly stopped.

That's right, those two can't beat me, and I can't even keep that thief, how could they both stay.

Sure enough, not long after, the two arresters returned without success.
-
When another morning came, the sky was not yet fully lit, and the scattered leaves in the yard and the gray sky together outlined the depression.

Autumn colors are thick.

In the kitchen, the two housewives have already started making breakfast.

The light of the stove, the light of the oil lamp, and the sizzling sound of the food in the pot are simple and pure fireworks.

After a while, everyone got up one after another and sat around the dining table.

"Hey, son, last night, what did the yamen arrest tell you to do?"

Xia Hengzhi asked, and everyone followed suit with curious looks.

Xia Jingyun thought for a while, and said: "It's nothing, it's just our old bearded supervisor, he was also unlucky, and he went out of the city and met a bandit and died! The head of the county government office, Wu Butou, knew about my relationship with him, so he told me. You should also pay attention recently, don't go out of the city!"

The last sentence successfully drew everyone's attention away, and Xia Hengzhi said in surprise: "The bandits? They're all making trouble on the edge of the city?"

Xia Mingxiong snorted, "What's so strange about this. Our Sishui prefecture is located in a remote place, and life has become more and more difficult these years. There are more and more bandits and bandits. I heard some big people say that troubled times are coming again."

The 300-year law? Xia Jingyun murmured in his heart, pretending to be relaxed and smiled, "Don't worry so much, as long as you stay in this Jiang'an city, with Mrs. Yun around, as long as the court doesn't fall, this is the safest place in Sishui Prefecture after the state city."

Everyone felt reasonable when they heard the words and breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Jingyun's heart suddenly moved, "Uncle, you have traveled all over the rivers and lakes, and you have seen a lot. What do you think is the most suitable place to inquire about information?"

Xia Mingxiong's compliments on his nephew were quite rewarding. He leaned back, touched his full belly, and said sarcastically: "That's not to mention, of course it's a brothel! Traveling from south to north, fish and dragons are mixed, and you can find out any news."

A voice suddenly said coldly and sinisterly: "You understand it very well?"

"Of course my wife! It's nothing, it's a friend of mine who told me."

"Oh? Which friend?"

The Xiazhang family refused to let it go, and would not forgive others if they had to be justified.

Xia Jingyun and Xia Yunfei looked at each other, and threw the chopsticks at the same time, "I'm full!"

Then oil the soles of the feet.

"Hey! Gao Yang, Dingyuan, you two."

"Hey what! Tell me the truth!"
-
Jiang'an County, County School, Xu Dapeng sat in a gazebo in the courtyard, silently reading a book, and glanced at the door from time to time.

"Xu Boyi, are you still waiting for your Wen Kui friend to come to see you?"

A few students walked by together and said with a mocking smile.

"He has become a Wenkui now, and he has become Mr. Su's disciple. Do you really expect people to remember you, a person who met you once?"

Xu Dapeng snorted and insisted: "Brother Gao Yang is not that kind of person!"

"For someone who is equally good, of course he is not like that, but why do people remember you, because you are not good-looking, or because you are not outstanding in reading?"

"It's been more than a day, are you waiting for someone to come?"

"you"

At this moment, a clear and gentle voice sounded at the door, "Excuse me, is Xu Dapeng and Xu Boyi here?"

"Brother Gao Yang!"

Xu Boyi stood up vigorously, waved the book in his hand excitedly, and responded loudly.

Seeing Xia Jingyun standing tall and handsome, the students who had mocked Xu Dapeng before looked at each other.

I didn't expect it to come.

I don't know who took the lead, everyone hurriedly followed and saluted together, "I've met Brother Gao Yang."

Xia Jingyun immediately returned the gift with a gentle and friendly smile, which also won the favor of many people.

Walking in Jiang'an City, among the bustling crowd, Xia Jingyun said softly: "I was busy yesterday, so I didn't visit the door. Brother Bo Yi forgive me."

Xu Dapeng's heart warmed immediately, and he was very moved, "Brother Gao Yang, what did you say, I am already grateful for you coming."

"We're all friends, so why talk about gratitude." Xia Jingyun said with a smile: "Besides, the leader of a literary meeting is neither an imperial examination nor a formal occasion. It's nothing more than a false name, and it's not worth paying so much attention to."

"Brother Gao Yang is so virtuous, I can't match him!"

Xia Jingyun rolled his eyes, "If you talk like that again, we won't be able to play anymore."

Xu Dapeng was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Where are we going to play today?"

"Go and visit the unique places in Jiang'an City."

"Oh?" Xu Dapeng raised his eyebrows, "I haven't heard of any special places here!"

Xia Jingyun thought for a while, then suddenly asked: "When did Brother Bo Yi die in the first night?"

Xu Dapeng shrank his neck, and quickly turned his head to look around. Can this be said in public?

Seeing that no one seemed to notice him, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "21."

Now it was Xia Jingyun's turn to be stunned, "I remember Brother Bo Yi is only 20 years old?"

Xu Dapeng smiled embarrassedly, "So this is a good hope for the future."

Xia Jingyun silently gave a thumbs up, "Then do you want to fulfill your wish today?"

Xu Dapeng's eyes lit up, "So, Brother Gao Yang, are we going to the brothel to meet prostitutes?"

"Don't say it so obscenely." Xia Jingyun smiled lightly: "We are going to educate women who have lost their feet."

"How to educate?" Xu Dapeng showed a smile that any man could understand.

Xia Jingyun turned to look at him, and slowly uttered two words, "Vulgar."

Jiang'an City is not big, but daily necessities such as brothels still exist.

Although there are not as well-defined buildings and pavilions as in Zhongjing City, there are still three brothels and some shady prostitution halls to meet the daily needs of men.

Especially after the concubine concubine visits relatives, and the big brothels in Zhongjing City have sent their backbones to carry out technical poverty alleviation, prostitutes, literati and poets from the entire Sishui prefecture have gathered here.

Let the three brothels be in dire straits.

Especially Yicuilou, after winning the famous lady Ningbing, the oiran of Zhongjing City, to settle in, the business is booming.

Standing in front of Yicui Building, Xia Jingyun looked at Xu Dapeng with a smile, "Brother Bo Yi, what do you think of this place?"

Xu Dapeng stared obsessively, "This building is really big, oh no, it's so white!"

Xia Jingyun smiled playfully, "Then let's go to this place."

Walking in with Xu Dapeng, the enthusiastic old bustard greeted him, chirping with words that made Xu Dapeng lively.

Veterans like Xia Jingyun don't do that, they look at the girl in front of them indifferently, and when they don't like it, they wave their hands and say something lightly.

Change batch.

But today, although Xia Jingyun came to investigate the information, he did not act rashly. Instead, he found a private seat, ordered some food and drink, and observed slowly.

Xia Jingyun silently watched the people coming and going outside. While scanning his eyes to see if there were people with injured arms mixed in, he couldn't help but be attracted by the seemingly magnificent breasts of those girls who passed by.

Immediately after that, I could see some clues from the unnatural jump, tsk tsk, what a big bully!
After looking at it for a while, I found nothing, and when I was thinking about what to do next, an old bustard came over with a smile on his face, with the unique fragrance of makeup, "You two young masters, in a quarter of an hour, it will be the time for Miss Ningbing to play tea tonight. If the two young masters are interested, I can take the two of you there."
