ruffian mixed in ancient times

Chapter 235 "Mixed Outer City"

The entertainment programs for the people of Dazhou were very simple, they went to the theater to watch a play, or went to the teahouse to listen to books, and then they went to the gambling house or the brothel.Of course, it is absolutely impossible for Ah Zhen to bring Yingying to the gambling house. As for the brothel, he still wants to save his life to see his unborn child.

A group of people wandered among the crowded crowd, Qin Yu and Qin Mi were very curious, but Liu Fengyang and Guo Zhixiao looked depressed, what is there to do in this street, isn't it just those shops.

When the three women stayed in front of a rouge booth, chattering endlessly.Ah Zhen opened his mouth and suggested, "Why don't we go to the outer city?"

As soon as he said that, Liu Fengyang and Guo Zhixiao immediately raised their spirits and nodded excitedly.

Qin Yu and Qin Mi were also very happy. They only came out to the inner city at most, and they hadn't been to the outer city yet.

"Brother Zhen, let's go for a stroll in the outer city." Qin Mi put down the rouge in her hands, and she was already dancing with her hands.

Seeing how happy they were talking about the outer city, Yingying couldn't help being curious, "Is the outer city different from the inner city?"

"If the inner city is a gentleman, then the outer city is a hooligan." He looked at Yingying's curious little face and said softly, "There are a lot of dragons and snakes."

"Is that fun?" Yingying was even more happy after hearing that. What's so fun about being a gentleman, only being a hooligan is fun.

Said, a group of people were extremely excited, put down the rouge box in their hands, and walked quickly towards the outer city.

Seeing them leave, the owner of the rouge stall took a big sip, and muttered to himself, "I've been looking at them for so long, I've touched them all, and I don't even buy anything." Shout out to passers-by.

Jinling has been famous since ancient times. Since the imperial capital was placed in this city, and the inner and outer cities were divided into two, the outer city is still the first economic center of the Great Zhou despite the smog. No matter they are high-ranking officials or street hooligans, they all like to go to the outer city. , because it is more comfortable here, and you can’t finish all the shopping in the outer city for three days and three nights. You can’t count Zhuque Street, Xuanwumen, Baihu Road, Qinglong Lane, Taojiandu, etc. in a day and a night.

Jinling’s Qinhuai Shili Rouzhi is even more famous. The land of ten miles is full of brothels and fences, Emei painting boats, and there are countless famous courtesans. Yes, there are so many outstanding singers who can sing and dance among the gorgeous and beautiful, and Wu Nong's soft language among luxury and money fans is simply a man's paradise.

Of course, if Ah Zhen and Liu Fengyang came alone, the first choice would be those brothels, but there were three female relatives beside them.

Ever since Qin Yu and Qin Mi stepped into the outer city, their excitement hadn't diminished, and they watched the people coming and going with wide eyes.After watching for a long time, they finally spit out: "I didn't expect that the inner city and the outer city are so different."

A group of people were in the crowd, Yingying was also amazed, as he said, if the inner city is a gentleman, then the outer city is a hooligan.

Ah Zhen listened to their murmurs, and told them: "Don't get lost." After the order, he took Yingying's hand and hid in the crowd, behind Liu Fengyang and the three brothers and sisters of the Guo family, hurriedly followed closely , There are too many people and it is easy to lose track of them.

Rows of teahouses, taverns, silver shops, and silk shops stand on both sides of the street. Countless jugglers and storytellers gather in the bustling streets, and singing, playing and singing push the outer city to its peak of prosperity.

"Brother Zhen, let's go and have a look." Qin Yu and Qin Mi were so excited, they squeezed into a fire-breathing dragon juggling booth.

Ah Zhen shook her head and led Yingying to squeeze in.

He approached Yingying carefully, and asked softly, "Is it exactly the same as the one on TV?"

"Yes." Yingying couldn't help but nodded when she thought of what was shown on TV, it really seemed to be in time.

After watching quietly for a while, the juggling troupe performed to a certain extent, and a little girl held a small plate and begged for rewards from the audience.

After Qin Yu and Qin Mi applauded loudly, they quickly took out their silver coins as rewards.

"Let's go." Ah Zhen urged them boredly.

Listening to his urging, Qin Yu and Qin Mi walked far away reluctantly and looked back.

Walking in the crowd, Yingying's complexion became worse as she walked. Ah Zhen glanced at the whispering girls behind her, and a cold sweat dripped down her forehead.

"Yingying, why don't we go in and sit down?" Seeing that Yingying's complexion was getting worse and worse, he stopped in a teahouse and asked cautiously.

After Yingying glared at him, her little nose hummed lightly, and walked in without saying a word.

Ah Zhen hurriedly chased him in, that's what being famous is like, people can recognize him wherever he goes.

When a group of people walked into the teahouse, the waiter immediately greeted them with a bow and invited them to an empty table.

After Yingying sat down, she gritted her teeth and hated the girls who followed, and said to him, "It's nice to be admired." Her tone was already sour.

Ah Zhen wiped off his sweat, and smiled softly, "Yingying, this is none of my business." After speaking, he glanced at the girls who followed him a few streets away.The girls who were staring at him while whispering, their cheeks flushed immediately when they saw him turn his head around, and they quickly lowered their heads.

When he saw this, Yingying beside him immediately hummed heavily.He was so scared that he quickly turned his head, rubbed her tender hand under the table and laughed together: "I swear, it really has nothing to do with them."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Yu and Qin Mi burst out laughing, they never expected that the majestic Da Sima would be so fearful.

Liu Fengyang saw that Yingying's expression was not good, and explained for him: "Brother Zhen actually doesn't know the situation."

Seeing Liu Fengyang defending himself, Ah Zhen immediately gave him a grateful look.

Soon the waiter brought Xiaodian over, bowed and said: "Please use it slowly" and left in a hurry.

"Eat peanuts, eat peanuts" Ah Zhen was very uncomfortable, and hurriedly grabbed the peanuts from the plate and peeled them for Yingying.He secretly groaned in his heart, he is provoking someone.

"Guests, today I will talk about No. 30 seven chapters, and the case will be heard in the Underworld of the Great Sima." An old storyteller with a mustache came up to the stage with a fan in one hand and tea in the other, and shouted to the audience in a loud voice.

Seeing him coming up, the people in the audience who were chattering immediately fell silent, and the applause suddenly resounded.

Yingying raised her eyebrows and looked at Ah Zhen, Ah Zhen murmured with a smile in a daze: "Here, just listen to it, don't believe it." Hit the satellite, go to sea and destroy the aircraft carrier.

After the old storyteller shouted, he turned around and sat back on his desk, clapping his hands heavily.

"It's said that Da Sima knew that the person who killed the Qin girl was Shi Zheng. He ordered the people in the city not to make a sound when they heard the movement, let alone investigate. In the terrible silence, all the lights in the city were extinguished. Even pushed away by the brat."

"Little devil?" Yingying raised her eyebrows and teased him.

Ah Zhen blushed slightly and waved her hands, "Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously."

The long-tongued old man started to talk, stood up and slapped his palms, then looked around at the silent audience, and continued to speak miraculously: "As soon as the middle door of Shi's mansion opened, an ox-headed and horse-faced man with an enchanting lock in his hand entered through the wall. Lift up the soul of Shi Zheng who is sleeping peacefully in the room."

Just as he was spitting, a handsome young man stood up from the audience and asked, "Old man, since the middle door is open, why does the bull's head and horse face go through the wall?"

When he asked this question, the audience nodded in unison, and their faces were puzzled.

Ah Zhen and his group glanced at the young man, then immediately turned to look at the old man.

When the old man was talking, he was crossed by someone, and he slapped his palm and shouted: "The middle door was pushed open by a kid, and the bull's head and horse face are ghosts, how could they press the door and walk away?"

Ah Zhen was dumbfounded, this old man can really argue.Talk about everything to the point where ghosts and gods can't understand it.

After the boy nodded, he accepted the explanation and sat down.

After the old man saw him sitting down, the bull that continued to brag floated into the sky, "The bull's head and horse face carried the terrified Shi Zheng, and walked out of Shi's mansion slowly. There was no light or fire in the city, and even the wind stopped. Floating non-stop."

Yingying raised her eyebrows, looking at Ah Zhen next to her, with a half-smile.Ah Zhen himself also heard that his face kept getting hot, and he couldn't help but stood up and asked the old man: "Old man, since the wind has stopped, how will the yellow paper float?"

As soon as the old man spoke, he heard someone question him again, clapped his hands angrily and shouted: "The wind has stopped, but the ghost wind is still there."

"Damn, this is also an explanation." Ah Zhen couldn't believe it, seeing everyone looking at him, he quickly sat down.I scolded the eighteen generations of this old man's ancestors one by one in my heart.

"The bull head and horse face carried Shi Zheng's soul down the road of Huangquan. The ghosts and wolves howling on both sides of the road are so frightening. When passing by the evil ghost hell, all the evil spirits stretched out their fleshless black bones to Shi Zheng. Shi Zheng's clothes were already wet. A large piece, suddenly"

Speaking of this, the old man paused, clapped his palms, and shot at everyone with his thieves' eyes. He said in a low-pitched voice in a gloomy voice: "Suddenly, when the fog cleared, Yan Dian appeared in front of Shi Zheng's eyes. When Shi Zheng was dragged by a bull-headed horse, After entering, Da Sima sat in front of Yan's table in the darkness, his face was half green and half black. The darkness was filled with the ghostly laughter of little devils."

Yingying chuckled when she heard this, raised her eyes to look at Ah Zhen's face and said teasingly, "I don't know what this half-blue and half-black face looks like?"

Three black lines slid down Ah Zhen's forehead, and murmured with a blushing old face: "In order to increase the horror effect."

When the old man said that Lu Pan was not human, Guo Zhixiao's old face also turned red.Qin Mi covered her mouth and kept snickering, Qin Yu didn't know what was happening at that time and asked softly, "Fourteenth sister, what's going on?"

"Lu Pan is played by Brother Thirteen." Qin Mi whispered to her.

"Thirteenth brother?" As he spoke, he turned his face and looked at Guo Zhixiao, who didn't look like Lu Pan at all.

"Big Sima ordered, and the county magistrate was immediately lifted up by the kid. The oil pan next to him was already tumbling non-stop, and the county magistrate screamed in an instant."

Before he finished speaking, the girl next to the boy couldn't take it anymore, she stood up and asked loudly: "If the oil pan is hot, there should be no waves, why is it tumbling?"

The question of "this" really made the old man dumbfounded, he didn't come out, and finally roared out of embarrassment: "If you want to listen, please listen, if you don't listen, please go out, don't keep making crosses."

The girl squirmed her mouth, and seeing that the old man was blushing and his neck was thick, he pursed his lips and said nothing, and finally sat down.

Ah Zhen saw that the girl was pretty and elegant, and kept nodding her head, secretly scolding the old man for having no professional ethics.

When Liu Fengyang heard this passage, he showed off his literary talent and asked the people who didn't know the situation: "Do you know why the oil pan boils when it's hot?"

Qin Yu was also very curious, shaking her head and hurriedly asked, "Why is Mr. Liu?"

Sitting next to her, Yingying rolled her eyes and said, "It's not oil, it's vinegar."

When she said this, Liu Fengyang, Guo Zhixiao, and Qin Mi all stared wide-eyed, and asked in disbelief: "Yingying knows?"

Ah Zhen joked to them with a smile: "Yingying's head is different from yours, how could she not know."

Sure enough, as soon as his words fell, the faces of the three of them immediately turned red.

When Yingying turned her head, she saw the girl at the table in the distance again, staring at the man beside him with affectionate and admiring eyes, her expression was not good after seeing Ah Zhen, and then she groaned heavily after giving Ah Zhen a hard look.

Hearing this heavy snort, Ah Zhen shrank his neck, turned his stiff neck and looked at the girls in the distance. Sure enough, seeing the eyes of those girls were like wolves, he wished to eat him in one bite.

Seeing this, Yingying still dared to look at it. She squeezed her hand under the table heavily, and her expression became even worse.

Ah Zhen immediately turned her neck, holding her tender hands tightly with both hands under the table, and kept laughing along with her.

Just when the storyteller was talking about seeing ghosts in the daytime, Ah Zhen was delighted to hear him finally come out and shout: "Tomorrow at this time, I will talk about Da Sima going to the south of the Yangtze River." Finally entered the inner hall.

The teahouse, which was originally quiet, suddenly became noisy again.

"Yingying, it's really none of my business." Ah Zhen saw that Yingying's expression was still not good, so he didn't even break it.

"Young Master Ah Zhen, you are so happy to be admired and admired." She also knew that she didn't blame him, but her mood just couldn't get better.

Liu Fengyang and others heard her words, looked at each other and did not dare to say anything, not knowing which kind of vinegar Yingying was eating.

A bead of sweat rolled down Ah Zhen's forehead, and he murmured: "I don't want to, really." His face was full of begging.

"I know it's none of your business, but I'm not happy to think of a lot of women looking at you like this." Yingying confessed.

As soon as she said that, everyone immediately looked at those girls, and seeing their hungry eyes, they sighed secretly, Brother Zhen is really charming.

"This..." Ah Zhen was speechless, stood up abruptly after a pause and sighed: "Okay, that's the only way."

Seeing him standing up, Yingying quickly raised her head and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Do your best to smear me." He said, snatched Liu Fengyang's fan, and with a snap, walked towards those girls in three or seven steps.

Liu Fengyang, Guo Zhixiao, Qin Yu, Qin Mi, and Ying Ying stared at him with wide-eyed steps, with an obscene smile on his face, and a fan in his hand, like uneducated sons and daughters. The girl walked over.

The girls followed from the inner city to the outer city, and their deep affection for Da Sima was already evident. When they suddenly saw her walking towards them with such a lowly appearance, their collective hearts were beating non-stop.

Ah Zhen took three or seven steps, shaking his fan in a dirty manner, and quickly walked to the table of these girls. Seeing that their chests were rising and falling, and their faces were as red as blood, he closed the fan with a snap He stretched out to pick up a girl's chin and said with a teasing smile: "Yo, miss is pretty pretty, how about playing with me."

The girls at the table stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that Da Sima came to tease them. In this crowded teahouse, he was so bold that he was at a loss for a moment.
