It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 753

The night in Chang'an was very deep. Cheng Dalei and the three walked along the shore without anyone left or right. The soles of their shoes fell on the slate, making a rattling sound.

Neither Liu Facai nor Xu Shenji spoke. They sensed that Cheng Dalei's mood was a little off, but they didn't know why.

I have been to Man Tingfang just now, and I know that Yizhipeach is not there. From the guy's mouth, they learned that she lived in a low house by the river, and the three of them were rushing there.

Unconsciously or not, Cheng Dalei walked very slowly. On the way there, Cheng Dalei also recalled the past acquaintance with Yizhitao.

At that time, a peach was the number one oiran in Chang'an City, with countless pumps. And Cheng Dalei had just fled to Chang'an City, hiding his name incognito, not even daring to reveal his real name.

Originally, the two people who were unable to fight with eight poles collided with each other by accident. At a certain Chenghuang Temple fair, a peach came to burn incense. At that time, Cheng Dalei was chased and killed by his enemies because he got out too fast at that time. He had nowhere to hide in the Temple of the City God. A peach deliberately covered it up to help Cheng Dalei stop the disaster.

The two were considered acquaintances in this way. Later, Cheng Dalei gradually gained a firm foothold and helped Yizhitao to fend off several disasters. After going back and forth, it was considered a friendship. Cheng Dalei often visited Man Tingfang, and Yizhitao occasionally came to the dungeon he covered.

A bandit and a prostitute look very different, but in fact they are both desperate people, and they can be considered a bit of adversity.

No matter what, Dalei didn't understand, as a peach, no matter what, he wouldn't fall into this field. What happened in the middle, Cheng Dalei couldn't understand, but seeing a generation of beautiful women so down, Cheng Dalei was more or less unhappy.

Continue to walk forward, and a low house appears by the river. Although Cheng Dalei hadn't been to Chang'an City for many years, he still knew something about it.

Chang'an is the most prosperous place in the world, with countless princes and nobles. But there are also poor people in Chang'an, and this place by the river is even a slum in Chang'an City. There are coolies, hawkers, beggars... Most of them are desperate and have little ability.

Even the dungeon that Cheng Dalei covered in the past was not as good as the dungeon. There were a group of villains in the dungeon. They were desperate, and they were willing to take risks. But the people here don't even have the guts to take risks.

What makes Cheng Dalei even more heavy is that there is another kind of livelihood here - secret prostitutes, also known as half-doors.

In the Empire, even prostitutes were distinguished from prostitutes. For example, Jade Bird is already a figure standing at the top of the food chain. There is a separate yard, and there is a maid and a woman. If you want to see her, in addition to spending a lot of money, you must have a family background to learn. After spending a lot of money and pretending to be like dirt for a long time, the girl is willing to meet her face. It is also a matter of sitting and talking, talking about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even holding hands is a nonsensical idea.

Of course, this rule is only for ordinary people. Some people don't need to obey the rules by nature. For example, when Bailisheng gave an order today, Jade Bird needs to come over, so naturally they don't even dare to have the slightest dissatisfaction.

There is another kind of prostitutes, they are also cheap, but they are not allowed by the government. He could only half-close the door and hang a sign on the door. When a familiar Enke came over, he turned the sign over.

Cheng Dalei's face was dark and gloomy, and he didn't dare to think about some things.

As soon as they entered the low room, a hunched man came over with a greasy smile on his face.

Cheng Dalei and the three of them did not know anything about this man's profession. Probably his wife and daughter were in charge of picking up customers, and he solicited business on the street.

Before he could speak, Cheng Dalei asked directly, "Ask you about someone?"

With a smile on his face, the man rubbed his palms.

Cheng Dalei gestured to Liu Fa Cai with his eyes, and Liu Fa Cai was so disgusted that he threw him a piece of silver. The man took the silver, bit it in his mouth, and his smile grew brighter.

Seeing Cheng Dalei's generous shot, he wanted to slaughter fiercely. But Cheng Dalei has a temperament of not being angry and arrogant, obviously not easy to mess with.

"Master, may I ask, but if the little ones know about it, don't they dare to hide it?"

Cheng Dalei paused, but didn't know how to describe a peach. He thought for a while and said, "There is someone who works in Man Tingfang and now lives here. Do you know where she lives?"

"Master, you are talking about Mrs. Tao, she lives in front, turn left at the second intersection, and a wooden house by the river is her place."

Once in Chang'an, a peach that everyone wanted to pick could not be picked, how could it become a peach woman. Cheng Dalei didn't know how he should feel at the moment, he asked, "It is said that she was quite famous back then, how did she end up here?"

"Hey, who said it wasn't. Master may not know, she was Man Tingfang's top card at the time, and I heard that many big people are her guests. We also heard about it, we don't know if it's true or not. Listen to people. Said that there was a big man who wanted to redeem her life, but she refused to do so. People, you should know how much she weighs. No, you will offend people. How can the adults of Chang'an City be able to offend us, that person She was forced to take over her body, and she was ostracized everywhere, and was driven out by Man Tingfang after a few years. There were people who came to see her before, but it has become less and less in the past two years. "

Cheng Dalei took out another piece of silver and said, "Excuse me, which big man, tell me the name, I don't know if I have heard of it."

The man shook his head: "I don't know about the little ones. It's been a long time in the past, and those big people and the little ones don't know each other. Master, do you think the little ones are making no sense."

Cheng Dalei shook his shoulders, and suddenly laughed: "It's right, it's right."

The man received two pieces of silver in succession, and became more and more happy, saying: "Master, there is a treasure here when I am young. It came from the grassland. Just one grain can make you stand out."

Cheng Dalei was stunned: "Are you selling medicine?"

"Yeah." The man was also stunned: "Selling medicine Lang Pisan, no one here knows, no one knows, make sure the goods are genuine."

Cheng Dalei was silent, and Xu Shenji and Liu Facai also had embarrassed expressions. Cheng Dalei let out a long breath, but he was preconceived.

"Sorry." Cheng Dalei took out another piece of silver: "Thanks."

When the man came back to his senses, Cheng Dalei had already walked forward. The man suddenly turned his back and said, "Master, you are also Mrs. Tao's former guest. You can see from the little one that you are a righteous person. Help her if you can."

Cheng Dalei didn't look back, and continued to walk: "I'm not her guest, she's my sister."

"Sister?" The man is even more confused. Judging by his age, Cheng Dalei is much younger than Mrs. Tao.

Cheng Dalei walked forward step by step, somewhat comforted in his heart. There are many people with temperaments in the dust, and you must not be prejudiced. If you peek at the old people, you will also cold the hearts of the old people.
