CHAPTER XXXVII
"......" Xuantian didn't answer, just nodded slightly.
"In Xia Zhuo Shang, she is the daughter of Zhuo Yan, the richest man in the imperial city." The woman smiled and sat down to herself.
"Hmph, while the town is now less crowded, I'll go to the town first." Stygian chuckled and got up to leave.
"......" watched the dark clouds walk away, and Xuantian smiled helplessly.
"Brother Xuantian, drink tea." Pang Ruolan smiled at Zhuo Sheng and poured a cup of tea for Xuantian.
"Who is this young lady?" Zhuo Shang said curiously.
"Ah, I, I'm ......" Pang Ruolan blushed deliberately and only said half of it.
"......" Xuantian was noncommittal.
Seeing that Xuantian didn't answer, Zhuo Sheng glanced at the women next to him.
"This sister is light and agile, and she looks quite dancing, I don't know if she is good at dancing?"
"Generally, those who come to participate in this event will participate, otherwise it will be disrespectful to everyone!"
"There's an extra part where the winners of each day can name those who come to the event to participate in tomorrow's race."
"......" Pang Ruolan smiled helplessly, "Brother Xuantian and I, we are just passing by here, and besides, the victorious person may not look down on me and invite me to participate." ā
"Let's go." Xuantian swept the smiling faces of the women, pulled Pang Ruolan and prepared to get up and leave.
"Xuantian? Childe, please wait, today's event will be out soon, please listen to it before leaving? Zhuo Sheng looked at Xuantian with affection, and gestured to his entourage behind his hand.
"Huh." Shenyun, who came back from shopping, watched the attendants beside Zhuo Sheng run towards the elders who organized the activities, and whispered to them, but did not interfere, but sat down with a chuckle.
I only heard the old man on the altar say: "Today's event ended early due to the withdrawal of several other participants, and the victor is Miss Zhuo Xiang!" ā
In the applause that rang out around her, Zhuo Sheng got up lightly and came to Pang Ruolan, "This young lady is light, I expect that dancing will be elegant, Zhuo Sheng wants to invite Miss to participate in tomorrow's activities." ā
"Ah......" Pang Ruolan was slightly stunned, and her heart was paid: This girl has fallen in love with Xuantian and feels that she is not worthy of him with my appearance, so she deliberately made things difficult for me and wanted me to make a fool of myself in front of everyone.
"......" Xuantian looked at the people who were applauding and waiting, and was speechless for a while.
"It's not good for us not to give face to the elders in the town, and besides, the winner has a reward, I remember that the orchid girl said that she wanted me and Xuantian to sit back instead of starving, right?" Styx laughed.
"......" Pang Ruolan Xinfu: You are too domineering, why are you so vindictive...... Isn't it just that the hair in the handkerchief is gone, and my hair is not a treasure......
"Don't embarrass her, let's go." Xuantian, who was about to leave, was pressed back by the dark cloud, and sighed faintly: "You have made a mistake again......
"Hehe, little girl Zhuo Shang, I've seen a beautiful sister." Zhuo Sheng smiled at the dark cloud, and said: "The event in this town is held every year, and the participants come from all over the town, everyone is happy, and there has never been a person who has refused the invitation of the winner of the day's event, and no one can bear to sweep everyone's interest." ā
"Well, I don't think my body is important, let's walk back, shall we? Anyway, Xuantian's physical strength recovers quickly, so if you're hungry, you're hungry, right? Stygian Cloud laughed.
"......" Pang Ruolan Xinfu: Xuantian ......
"Okay, I'll participate, but there is one condition." Seeing that the old man on the altar nodded in agreement, Pang Ruolan said again: "Tomorrow night, when night falls, the orchid will offer a dance for everyone." "Xinfu: Looking at the people who came today, almost all of them are the best, and I need time to prepare and win by surprise......
"Okay, that's it, I just hope Miss Orchid remembers what she said, don't run away, and let everyone down." After Zhuo Sheng finished speaking, he bowed slightly to Xuantian and Shenyun.
"Ah......" When she was leaving, her arm was hit by Zhuo Sheng and hurt, and Pang Ruolan couldn't help but scream.
"Huh." Zhuo Sheng looked at Pang Ruolan contemptuously from top to bottom, and walked away with the women.
"......" Pang Ruolan Xinfu: It's really uncomfortable to be maliciously looked at from head to toe, I have had it myself in my previous life, and sure enough, some people are very jealous.
"Shall we get out of here now?" Xuantian looked at Pang Ruolan, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
"Huh, what? Do you want her to escape? Styx sneered, "You're not helping her!" It's just that she will become a laughing stock in the future. ā
The three of them ......were speechless all the way.
"Brother Xuantian, Sister Shenyun, you go to the inn first, I want to go and prepare." Pang Ruolan looked at Xuantian, a trace of tenderness flashed in her eyes, "I will participate tomorrow, and then I will invite you to a big meal." ā
Pang Ruolan ran away with a smile, thinking all the way about how to stand out, only winning is the best counterattack to Zhuo Shang.
"I have to set up the venue and prepare things, but I don't have any ......money right now," Pang Ruolan muttered as she walked.
Sighing slightly, Pang Ruolan took out the tangram glass bottle that her mother gave her when she went down the mountain from her arms, and held the bottle to face the sun, and she could see the blood droplets that were secretly stored in the bottle when she saw Qianli for the first time in Lingshui Palace.
"I'm afraid that only this bottle can be used as some money now......" Pang Ruolan smiled helplessly, and paid in her heart: Pang Ruolan, Pang Ruolan, you are really useless, it is really embarrassing to send such an important thing into the pawnshop to solve the urgent need.
Going around, Pang Ruolan came to the pawnshop in the town, the yellow wall is blue tile, it looks like it has been some years, the two big "pawnshop" words on the plaque at the door, seem to be shining dazzling in the sun, Pang Ruolan looked down at the glass bottle in her hand, gently touched the bottle body, and lubricated her hands.
The bottle was dazzling in the daylight, and Pang Ruolan hesitated for a moment and walked in.
"Hello officer, what are you going to do?" The pawnshop guy greeted him warmly.
"IāI want to get rid of this glass bottle, and I'll redeem it when I have money." Pang Ruolan handed the glass bottle to the man.
"This, alas, this." The pawnshop owner took the glass bottle in the man's hand, his eyes flashed with amazement, but the expression on his face was calm.
"All I need is 100 taels of silver." Pang Ruolan said.
"Ahh Okay, you hurry up and get the money for this young lady! The pawnshop owner couldn't hide his happiness and signed a pawn order with Pang Ruolan.
"......" Pang Ruolan walked out of the pawnshop with the silver, came to the road and stopped a young lady, and asked, "May I ask Miss, is there a brothel in the town?" ā
"......" The man looked at Pang Ruolan and said, "Yes, go ahead, turn left and turn right again, and the street is there." ā
"Oh, thank you." Pang Ruolan walked in the direction the woman had guided.
"Yo! It's your first time here, right? Come in! ** smiled and greeted him.
"I, I'm going to find the one you are best at playing the guzheng here." Pang Ruolan couldn't help but think of the scene when she saw Qingling for the first time, and her heart felt a little warm.
"All right, little spoon! You take this young lady to the cold wind! ā
"Yes."
Pang Ruolan followed the guy all the way through the lively room and came to a rather cold room.
"You go get busy, I'll just go in by myself." After a little thought, Pang Ruolan knocked on the door, got a response, and walked in.
Walking into the room, all you see are cyan, cyan beds, cyan tables and chairs, cyan wardrobes, men in cyan clothes, covered with blue veil, no light in their eyes, sitting at the table.
"......" Pang Ruolan Xinfu: This room makes people feel uncomfortable as soon as they come in, it is too cold, this man lives in a brothel, but it is called cold wind, and the person is also cold, there is no smile on his face, it seems that in addition to being good at guzheng, there are usually no customers.
"......" The man looked at Pang Ruolan, his face was expressionless, and he did not speak.
Pang Ruolan swept the only piece of zither in the room that was not cyan, and saw that the strings on it were shining, and the body was clean and tidy, which seemed to be because it was often wiped.
When she was on the mountain, Pang Ruolan had learned the guzheng and liked it very much in her previous life, so she couldn't help but walk to the guzheng and sit down, her eyes were slightly closed, her hands were paddling on the strings, and she played the "Qingyu Case" of her favorite game fairy sword 3 in her previous life. It is like a drizzle caressing the tung, open like the wind blowing snow, stretching like a breeze blowing willows; The melody is soft and clear, as if the fairy in neon clothes dances with the music, dancing with whirling clothes and mysterious postures.
After finishing the song, Pang Ruolan heard a chuckle behind her, turned around and looked into the man's gentle eyes.
"Do you want me to play this for you to dance?" The man's beautiful voice sounded in his ears, light and magnetic.
