Chapter 229 Brothel
Chapter 229 Brothel
Seeing the person making faces, Wen Baixu couldn't help but want to roll his eyes to the sky, but because of the people present, he regained his composure.
"Let's put this on hold for a bit. The most important thing now is that since we've already arrived at this place, what exactly is the test? Escape?"
Everyone's eyes were attracted by this sentence, but all eyes turned to the little girl.
Seeing this, the girl couldn't help but wave her hands anxiously and hurriedly distanced herself from the matter.
"Hey~ Don't look at me like that, I don't know anything, I'm just a poor guy who is forced to work for you guys"
Everyone did not move their eyes away after hearing this. They just stared at him for a while before looking away.
"Then what should we do?"
Jiang Zifang didn't know what to do for a moment, so he looked at Ling Yun for help.
Ling Yun could only shake his head at him at this moment, but the next second a cold voice sounded from behind the bed curtain.
"Thinking carefully, you are completely different from who you were then. After all, I thought you were a wise man back then, but now I think you are like..."
"Fool"
Min Yuan at the side couldn't help but grin and echoed
"You are the fool, even Ah Xu can't be a fool"
"how do you know"
“I just know it”
The two of them were arguing like kindergarten kids arguing over something.
"Hey Mianmian, give me some hints"
While the two were arguing, Wen Baixu said nothing. While everyone's attention was drawn, he couldn't help but ask in his mind:
[Host, is this a request for help? ]
"Hmm~ Why not?"
[Well... this system is merciful and will take one dog food from you as a reward this time.]
Wen Baixu's face instantly turned black, but in his heart he praised him without any color.
[Tsk.....my price is already a bargain, and you still don’t want it]
Wen Baixu didn't say anything more after hearing this, but just silently waved his hand in his heart, signaling it to continue.
[This story started with a liar....]
The slightly historical narration brings to mind a melodramatic image of an inspirational, filial, but love-brained person.
"In other words, the story line starts from the protagonist being deceived and sold into the mansion by some unethical person, but the protagonist believed that person's lies and worked diligently in the mansion, hoping to save enough money to marry him one day. However, the heavens did not bless the kind protagonist, and the vicious supporting character defiled the protagonist, who then used the protagonist's parents and childhood sweetheart to deceive the protagonist and let him suffer constant humiliation. However, the protagonist's parents had long been beaten to death at home by the master of the mansion, and the childhood sweetheart had long gone away?"
[Yes, host, this is probably the outline of the story]
"So what secret do you need me to find?"
Wen Baixu was a little confused for a moment. "Do you need me to avenge her? Or catch that person, but... we can't get out now."
[Maybe it was like this before, but it’s probably not possible now]
At this moment, the doubts in Wen Baixu's mind continued to extend, and the expression on his face slowly solidified.
"What did you think of?"
Bingbing's voice instantly broke the quarrel in the room, and Min Yuan immediately retracted his gaze and looked at his brother.
"It's hard to say, but I feel that things are not as simple as we thought. What we should solve most is the ghost market that appeared out of nowhere. As far as I know, ghost markets are usually found in places where yin gathers or where the dead gather. But there have been no large-scale deaths here before, and this thick fog only started a few months ago."
Wen Baixu glanced at the person on the bed and sighed deeply the next moment, "This matter is not only about the test, but even if there is no test, as a cultivator, we must do our due duty for the suffering of the people of the world, so we have to go out for a walk next."
As he spoke, he saw Jiang Zifang looking at him from the corner of his eye. He shook his finger, indicating that his proposal was rejected by him. He turned his head to the other people and said, "Brother Ling, you come to the division of labor and cooperation here."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and motioned for him to start
Ling Yun did not give in at all. He stood up, looked at everyone, and pointed at a few of them. "Lian Yi, Min Nanfeng, Min Yuansui, Jiang Zifang, you stay in the room. The rest of me, Wen Baixu, and Hun Dun will go out and investigate with a smaller target, and try our best..."
"Hey~ If you say the target is small, why don't you let me go instead of letting that weakling go?"
He pointed in the direction of Wen Baixu and looked at Ling Yun.
"Well... that's not a consideration..."
Before Ling Yun finished speaking, he heard Wen Baixu's disdainful voice, "Then let's switch. I'll take care of your brother. By the way, I can get close to him. Maybe I can even squeeze someone else out of the position. Who knows..."
His voice sounded as if he was speaking out his inner thoughts, but the next second he covered his mouth and looked at Min Yuansui in surprise.
Just as Min Yuan was about to speak, he heard the man next to him say, "Okay, go early."
After saying this, the figure under the bed curtain slowly shrank back into the quilt.
Wen Baixu looked at him deeply, nodded to Ling Yun, and the others walked out of the room.
Under the night sky, the moon tonight is particularly bright, but the dead branches and rotten leaves hanging in the wind also rustle. An ancient house stands quietly. In the courtyard, a stone bridge spans the lotus pond, which is covered with snow, but something is creeping in the dark. A beam of light is projected from the depths of the corridor, reflecting the mottled stone road, which looks particularly mysterious.
The buildings in the courtyard are arranged in an orderly manner. Passing through the corridor, you can see an ancient theater building, but now there is no noise as in the past, only the slight swaying sound of the window lattices when the wind blows. The pavilions and towers cast mottled shadows under the moonlight, like a flowing painting. The corridor is winding, the flowers and trees are lush, and the occasional cries of crows break the silence, making it seem lifeless.
On such a night, the house seemed even more mysterious. I was afraid that the next second, at a certain corner, the owner of the house would hold a candlestick, and under the candlestick was a dim and thin face. Looking at this quiet courtyard and the cold starry sky, my heart was filled with unspeakable thoughts. The moonlight was like water, but at this moment, the mood of several people was unspeakably depressed.
"This place is so strange, it doesn't look like a big house at all, it looks more like an abandoned house"
Although Ling Yun's voice was small, it was very clear. This sentence made Wen Baixu think of the ending after the story outline.
“It seems like you can hear ghost voices here”
Wen Baixu looked around carefully, but there was no response to his words. Just as he was about to turn around, he felt a chill on his neck and heard a sobbing sound in his ears.
He trembled all over and shuddered instantly. When he turned around, he saw a man with a grimace in front of him. Wen Baixu slapped him immediately, causing the man behind him to stagger.
"You...you are..."
Before Hun Dun's voice had finished, Ling Yun stretched out his hand to his mouth and made a hissing sound, pointing to a place on the left side of the corridor. Suddenly, a light was lit in that place, and there were tall figures gathering there, as if they were doing something.
Wen Baixu glanced at Ling Yun and pointed there, then looked back at the others and pursed his lips.
The other two nodded at this moment, and the three of them walked towards that place...
After the few people left, a dirty figure flashed out from the depths of darkness and ran in that direction. Black shadows on the walls of the corridor flew in that direction like sharp arrows.
"Miss, he went to Phantom Pavilion, and that bitch was also there."
The voice stopped at this moment, and no more words were said.
The figure in front of her didn't answer a word, but just smiled sadly under the moonlight, as if he had seen the end of that person...
The three of them came together under the tall building, looking at the flying red gauze, Wen Baixu suddenly had an idea in his mind
"A brothel?"
A word suddenly popped up in my mind, but I felt an unexpected excitement in my heart.
"Why is there a brothel here? And why didn't we see it when we came in?"
Wen Baixu expressed his thoughts at this moment, but the other two did not answer him.
"go in"
After a while, Ling Yun said something and raised his hand to push open the door covered with red gauze.
