The Cuihong Building is a small two-storey building, which occupies a small area, and its architectural mode is not outstanding, and it is extremely inconspicuous in this shepherd city where miscellaneous servants gather.

As the saying goes: the mountain is not high, there are immortals, the name is good, the water is not deep, there is a dragon, there is a spirit, there are no immortals, there is no dragon, but there is a phoenix.

The Oiran Xu Caifeng of the Emerald Red Mansion.

The fourth young master once said: "All the flowers in the world gather, not as good as the colorful phoenix and the hundred beautiful children; ”

What the fourth young master said is a golden rule in Shepherd City.

Although Shepherd City is not big, and those who stay here are all pickled goods with no future and illusions, but the fourth young master's elder brother is a disciple of Jiufeng.

The fourth young master likes to visit the Qinglou, and what he likes to visit is the Cuihong Building, because the Cuihong Mansion has Xu Caifeng.

Xu Caifeng is an eighteen or nineteen-year-old woman, wearing a bright yellow and elegant long skirt, with black hair draped on the side like a waterfall, plain and elegant, and is sitting in the Miaoyin Pavilion to enjoy the flowers.

There are many lotus flowers in the pond next to the Miaoyin Pavilion, Xu Caifeng likes lotus flowers very much, likes lotus flowers out of the mud but not stained, clear ripples but not demons, can be seen from a distance and can not be blasphemed.

When the four young men came in, Xu Caifeng was looking at it, and the maid of the fourth young master called 'Caifeng Fairy'; Xu Caifeng turned around, smiled apologetically, and said, "Fourth young master, you are here!"

The Fourth Young Master waved his hand and said, "I have told you many times, don't call the Fourth Young Master, just call Ming Yuan!"

Xu Caifeng covered her mouth and chuckled, and said, "Fourth Young Master listen to music?"

The fourth young master was helpless, shook his head, and said, "I met a strange person just now?"

Xu Caifeng said: "What's strange?"

The fourth young master said: "I didn't kill him with a fan." ”

Xu Caifeng smiled lightly again: "There are many people who can't be killed by your fan." ”

The Fourth Young Master shook his head and muttered, "But there are very few people who make me feel weird. ”

Xu Caifeng knew that this young man's sense of touch was very sensitive, so he took it seriously and asked, "What's your name?"

The fourth young master said: "Old man Mao calls him Tang Bai." ”

Xu Caifeng nodded, I'll take a look when I have time.

The fourth young master shook his head and thanked him, picked out a jade box from his arms, handed it to Xu Caifeng, and said, "This is the colorful jade lotus you want." ”

Xu Caifeng took the jade box, but did not open it, but put it in his hand to play.

The fourth young master got up and said goodbye.

After the fourth young master left, Xu Caifeng opened the jade box, and there was a jade lotus flower with a colorful color lying in the box.

Xu Caifeng closed the jade box and muttered Tang Bai twice, she was a little curious, what kind of person did the fourth young master think was strange?

Tang Bai followed behind Aji, and he began to think that Aji was a person who didn't like to talk, but Aji was very talkative.

Aji really doesn't like to talk, he likes to drink, and has been a handyman for more than 30 years, so everyone likes to drink.

Miscellaneous servants have no status, Aji has planted the ground, poured dung, washed the toilet, fed fairy birds... He has done many, many things, and when he thinks of many, many things to do in the future, he wants to drink, and as soon as he drinks, he wants to talk.

"Do you know why this city is called Shepherd's City?"

Tang Bai asked, "Why?"

"Because in the eyes of those disciples who cultivate immortals, we miscellaneous servants are like livestock in the eyes of farmers, do you know what livestock is? It is a cow that cultivates the land, a donkey that grinds, a horse that pulls a cart, and a pig that is slaughtered. ”

"Then why don't you leave?"

Aji looked at Tang Bai in disbelief, and screamed: "Leave, you actually want to leave, do you know how many people in the world rob this errand servant, whether it is the son of the princely family, or the prince and princess in the royal family, which one is not fighting for the head to drill here." He didn't wait for Tang Bai, and muttered to himself: "The life span of the world is three feet of earth, and the immortals are born in the spring of ten thousand years; who doesn't like the feather wheel to travel all over the world, the sky is high and the earth is wide and wide; who doesn't want to step through the red dust and travel freely, leaving behind the world's few worries." Who doesn't want to be Ling Jue's top spring breeze and guide the ups and downs of the common people. In the Tianmen Continent, there are three sects and four sects, and the Great Yan Sect is one of the four sects, do you know how big the Great Yan Sect is?"

Tang Bai shook his head.

Aji said excitedly: "The Dayan Sect covers an area of 100,000 hectares, with seven halls, nine veins and thirty-three peaks, seven soul-attracting people, thirty-seven holy fetuses, eight hundred golden pills, three thousand chemical yuan, tens of thousands of disciples, and a inheritance of ten thousand years; ”

Tang Bai was silent, if he was asked to empty the feces and wash the toilet, he was unwilling.

Aji chattered endlessly, and the two walked and stopped, sometimes the handymen rubbed shoulders and walked in a hurry, and some people were brightly dressed and giggling.

Aji took Tang Bai to a cultivated land in the far north, which was extremely remote, and a large area of land was growing rice seedlings, the verdant rice seedlings were gently swaying in the wind, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance of rice.

Tang Bai likes it here, he seems to have found the loneliness of his previous life, he likes this kind of unrestrained loneliness.

There is a thatched hut at the edge of the land, the old wooden planks have traces of wind and rain, and when the broken door is opened, the farm tools placed inside are revealed: a wooden bucket for carrying water, a wooden scoop for pouring water, a hoe for weeding... Then Aji led Tang Bai to the north, and about a pillar of incense, a row of low houses appeared in front of the two of them, and before they entered, a strange smell came to them.

Aji stopped, looked at Tang Bai and asked, "You really don't have any money?"

Tang Bai shook his head.

Aji said: "Aunt Han is really rich and generous. ”

Tang Bai frowned and did not speak.

Aji said: "It's really sad to have no money!"

Tang Bai said: "It's sad to be over." ”

Aji said helplessly: "That's it, the innermost room of this townhouse is your place to stay, if you have free time in the future, I will invite you to drink." After saying that, he gave up his hand and left.

Tang Bai walked towards the house, and without taking two steps, a tall, strong, ugly, and sturdy man walked out of the house, he looked at Tang Bai with a smile and asked, "Come to find Xiao Chunfeng?"

Tang Bai shook his head, and the man smiled and left.

Tang Bai didn't know who 'Xiao Chunfeng' was, but when he went to the house, he saw a woman in her thirties dressing next door, she knew that Tang Bai was peeking, but she didn't care at all.

Tang Bai's room is very smelly, maybe it was specially arranged by Old Man Mao, and people who don't know the rules always have to suffer more.

The room was not large, with an oil lamp hanging on a wooden wedge in the corner, and a fire fold tied with a thick rope hanging on the wooden wedge; on the side by the window, there were two wooden beds, and the beds were covered with half-worn bedding;

The futon was a little damp and smelled musty, and not far from the bed, there was a table and a chair, and there was a thin layer of dust on the table, and sometimes no one cleaned it.

Tang Bai frowned, the big sect that looked like a fairyland, there was such a dilapidated place, which made him a little disappointed.

Placing the handyman's clothes on the wooden bed on the left, he sat on the edge of the bed, and had just turned two pages of the pamphlet with the rules of the door, when there was a knock at the door.

Tang Bai pulled the door open, and outside the door stood the woman he had just peeked at the clothed woman.

This woman is not good-looking, but she is not ugly, and she has a plump body, especially her breasts.

"New here?"

The woman asked.

Tang Bai nodded.

"My name is Song Chunfeng, and some people also call me Xiao Chunfeng, get to know me. ”

"Tang Bai"

"Do you know what I do?"

Tang Bai nodded.

"After that, I had money to take care of it. ”

Tang Bai nodded again.

Song Chunfeng saw that Tang Bai didn't speak, and left slightly embarrassed.

Tang Bai closed the door, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, only then did he remember the poison pill, and the poison book was still in Ouyang Hongyu's hand; he sighed, recalling the time when the two of them got along on the top of the mountain, and shared the weal and woe in the mountains and forests, and couldn't help but lose his mind a little. He breathed and breathed, but his true qi was still a pool of stagnant water, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly.

The black silk produced by the Spirit Binding Pill is like a cage, even if he has insisted on meditating and spitting for more than three years, there has not been the slightest progress.

There was a sound of footsteps, Tang Bai opened his eyes, only to know that it was dark, and his stomach was a little hungry, and he didn't know where to eat?

The door was opened, and a tall young man walked in from outside the door, lit the oil lamp, and was startled when he saw Tang Bai, and then quickly came back to his senses, and smiled a little honestly: "Are you a new handyman?"

Tang Bai nodded and said, "Under Tang Bai, I don't know what Your Excellency is called?"

The young man scratched his head and said, "I have a lot of strength and eat a lot, they are all called I Hanniu, and you are also called me Hanniu!" As soon as the young man said this, Tang Bai noticed that the person in front of him was nine feet tall, and his muscles seemed to contain infinite strength.

"You haven't eaten yet?" After Han Niu finished speaking, he took out two big steamed buns from his arms, and handed them to Tang Bai with some reluctance: "Let's eat it for you!"

These two steamed buns were earned by him by doing more work today, and he was going to eat them when he was hungry, but when he saw his new friends, he still gave them to Tang Bai very generously.

Tang Bai was indeed hungry, looking at Han Niu's reluctant eyes, he only took one and asked, "Do the handymen usually eat this?"

Han Niu said: "You have to earn your own food." ”

Tang Bai was stunned for a moment, and had the idea of leaving, no wonder Aji was sad when he said that the miscellaneous servants had no money. He sighed and silently bit the dry and hard steamed bun in his hand.

Han Niu was really tired, so he fell asleep on the bed, his snoring was undulating, the duration was short, and it was very rhythmic.

Tang Bai smiled, maybe simplicity is a rare happiness.

In the middle of the night, Tang Bai was sleeping in a daze, only to see Han Niu suddenly jump up from the bed, close his eyes and punch a few times in the air, and then fall asleep on the bed, Tang Bai was awakened by it, but he couldn't sleep anymore.

Out of the room, it was pitch black outside, but Tang Bai's eyes narrowed, and everything around him became clear. He sat on a hill dozens of feet from the miscellaneous area for the night, thinking about a great and philosophical question: What is the meaning of life?

After dawn, he didn't understand the meaning of life.

When he returned to the house, Han Niu was long gone, but there was a young man with a thief's eyebrows and rat eyes in the house, carrying a bamboo basket with a few white steamed buns in it.

Seeing Tang Bai coming in, he was slightly stunned, looked Tang Bai up and down, and said, "You are the new handyman Tang Bai?"

Tang Bai glanced at him and said, "Who are you, how did you get into my room?"

"This is your steamed bun. ”

The young man took out two white steamed buns from the blue and handed them to Tang Bai.

Tang Bai did not accept it.

"Do you want it or not?"

Tang Bai took the steamed bun, ate it in three or two bites, and said, "Two more." ”

The young man smiled and gave Tang Bai two more steamed buns, and then walked out proudly.
