Chapter Forty-Nine: The Ship of Flowers
"White Shadow, I can make you a double-faced spy, I'm sure you'll be willing. But I have higher expectations for you, to start all over again, to use punishment and pain to find relief from the pain of betraying oneself, and many of you have these thoughts, as if you can start over, and be born again after receiving the pain of punishment. But this is the idea of the weak, the strong will mend it, and will pursue the lost self with pain. I hope that the day you come back, the day you come back to be strong again. For this reason, I am willing to make decisions on this matter for Xiaojian. I am sure that you will not let yourself down. I didn't leave this sentence and left.
In the ice cellar, in the cold air, Bai Ying burst into tears, and she endured it to prevent her tears, but the tears still flowed......
She swore that she would never cry again.
She didn't do it.
But she still had to swear, swear it was the last time.
But where should the betrayed self be repaired, and where should I start to find it?
Just determination?
Or is it a desperate gamble that you know you can't do?
The sky was blue.
Bai Ying looked at the bright sunlight in the sky, and his eyes felt a little unopen.
It has been many days since she left Wudang Mountain, and on the road, people come and go, and the river is endless.
Some newcomers are lively and lively under the leadership of the senior brother and sister of the Wudang faction, and they know the strange but full of expectations and fantasies.
Those immature faces are as familiar as their own many years ago, and as unfamiliar as the memories of many lifetimes ago.
Walking into the lively and prosperous Yangzhou city, the crowd on the street is much more complicated, and the people here are not wearing sect costumes, nor do they wear sect badges, which is a habit that appeared soon after the formation of many lively and prosperous cities.
People in the rivers and lakes need to go into the city to buy water and food. Go in and out of the auction house, and look for cheap and suitable equipment on the commercial streets, and sell the old weapons and equipment that you have eliminated and replaced. There are also many people who come for drinking, for going to the green house and the casino. These are, of course, in the livelier the city, the better.
If there is always fighting in the city, it is a matter of no one to please.
There are smart people who first do not wear sectarian clothing and do not wear sect badges.
In this way, people of each sect do not know whether such people are the same sect or not.
After a long time, this has become the common rule in the bustling towns where all sects and factions need to come and go, unless it is to recognize the faces of people from rival sects and people with hatred. Only then will there be fights, or if the murderous value is very high, but there is not enough self-protection power to make people discouraged, it will attract the greed of people with hearts.
White Shadow walked through the lively streets, but she didn't know any of the people around. She didn't have any friends in the rivers and lakes, and those familiar people who had debuted at the same time had already withdrawn from the rivers and lakes one after another a few years ago. Or become a Skill Master, or live a variety of other lives like NPCs. After a long time, there is no longer any contact, because there is no longer a world. They have like-minded friends, and their time and energy are no longer allowed to continue to spend much for old friends from different worlds, and there is no common language, so they completely cut off contact before. It's getting longer and longer, asking each other, how are you doing?
And then. There was nothing more to say, because there was nothing to say.
Bai Ying used to wonder if friends were always together because they were always together, or because they were friends.
Later, she felt that it was the former, so she didn't care if she still had friends, because since friends were always together, then the comrades-in-arms and companions around her were friends.
A cleanly dressed man, looking at the white shadow and smiling.
That smile smells of respect and kindness.
He did come for the White Shadow. "Excuse me, is it the White Shadow Girl?"
It's an NPC, an NPC that White Shadow doesn't even know.
"You are?"
"Below is Yang Wanran, who specializes in communication in the city, and a guest officer asked me to send this invitation and invite the White Shadow Girl to be a guest on the Hundred Flowers Boat."
Bai Ying wore gloves and took the invitation, in case there was a special poison on the invitation that would attack on the skin, she was very curious, in the rivers and lakes, except for Wudang Mountain, who else knew her?
On the invitation, there is only one sentence.
You must be wondering why I let you go in the first place. ’
There is only one sentence on the invitation, and the rest is the room number of the private room on the Hundred Flowers Ship.
This sentence made Bai Ying quickly think of who the person who was the east.
Why did he let himself go in the first place?
Isn't it because of the influence of eternal reincarnation? At that time, many people in the rivers and lakes knew that the most difficult murderous influence was eternal reincarnation, and the lower the source of blessing, the more reincarnation experience a person would endure, and the impact of eternal reincarnation suffered by a person with zero source of blessing was estimated to be 500 times that of fifty blessings. But even among the people who are fifty blessings, there are very few who can survive the influence of eternal reincarnation, so far, there are only three successful people in the rivers and lakes of the post-murderous era, the wind of the Justice League is slightly cold, and the upward and cynical of the Wudang faction, the blessings of these three people are all above forty, of which the upward blessing source is the highest, and the cynical blessing source is the lowest among the three.
Bai Ying used to speculate like this, but later, she often couldn't help but ask, why did he let go of herself and Bai Xue?
If it was really the influence of eternal reincarnation, it should not be possible to kill people for a while......
Or maybe the impact was on them.
The words on the invitation undoubtedly reveal a message - there is no other reason.
There are many boats in the Yangzhou water, collectively known as the Hundred Flowers Boat.
The flower boat naturally drinks flower wine, but the people who come to drink are not necessarily for the women on the boat. Because there are a lot of lanterns and lanterns on the water at night, all kinds of colors, it is a beautiful scenery.
The Baihua boat has existed for a long time in the history of the rivers and lakes, and there are those who have accumulated a certain reputation in the Qinglou and those who drive alone, and there are also fledgling ones. Usually just look at the size of the boat to know the reputation of the owner, the more popular the person in the Qinglou, the more magnificent the boat. And most of the fledgling ones are poor boats, and around those big boats, they are just a light on the water.
Yangzhou City's Baihua Boat arose in the era of the extinction of the gangs before the opening of the Three Realms, after the gangs perished, and the sects re-dominated the people in the rivers and lakes, the Qinglou in the rivers and lakes was no longer completely controlled by the power of the gangs, and many people had the opportunity to get rid of the oppression of the Qinglou, and they did not have to worry about being exterminated by the gangs and had the living space to work alone.
For hundreds of years, the largest ship in Yangzhou City has been called 'Flower Queen'.
But after spending it, there were many owners, some of whom made enough money to leave the business, and sold the boat to women who could afford it, and some of whom did not manage it well and were forced to change hands.
Today's generation of Huahou boat owners have been coming to Yangzhou for ten years, but Kao ships have always been full of people and lively. This is not an easy thing to do, a woman, even if she is beautiful, can not let the flower bush guests get tired of looking at it for ten years, that is definitely not something that can be done just by appearance.
People in the rivers and lakes call the owner of the ship as the queen of flowers, and the name of the queen of flowers is transferred at the same time as the resale of the ship, which has always been the rule of ship trading.
The ship has been rebuilt and expanded many times over the centuries, and now it is like a water fortress.
The huge body is located in the middle of the water, like a small island.
Thousands of lights, lit up with all kinds of different postures, the beauty posture composed of lights, from a distance, let people know what can be obtained by men here.
Such a large flower queen ship, of course, more than one woman.
There are a lot of women, these women are not invited by the queen of flowers, many are beautiful women in Yangzhou City and the surrounding green buildings, because they know that this place is lively, and take the initiative to beg to do business here; There are also many other boat owners, because their business is not ideal, so they take refuge in Huahou ship. But not all women want to be able to board this boat, they must go through the personal selection of the flower, of course, the posture is the first thing, in addition, they have to go through the special training of the person after the flower, if the training results are not ideal, they will not be able to get on the boat. The advantage here is that there is no long-term contract restriction like Qinglou, and you can leave anytime you want.
Therefore, there are many new boat owners who will come here to work first, and then leave to work alone after accumulating their own customers.
It is said that more than thirty percent of the owners of the Hundred Flowers Boat in Yangzhou City have done things on the Hundred Flowers Boat, and only three percent of the remaining seventy percent are not necessary for this, and forty percent are not qualified to board the ship.
There are many flower cong customers who say that women who are not qualified to board the Hundred Flowers Boat basically have no possibility of making money in this industry.
Ten years of facts, almost completely prove this statement.
Women come to spend the boat, not new at all.
Especially your guests.
The NPCs on the Flower Queen's Boat led the way and took the white shadow to the Flower Queen's Room on the top floor of the Flower Queen's Boat.
It was a place where Hanamigo personally served and entertained guests, and it was occupied every day, and after countless bidding in the past ten years, the price of Kao had already reached a staggering level.
The price of the back door is five million taels, and after one hour, an additional one million taels will be charged for each hour.
Moreover, it is also necessary to make an appointment, and at the peak, the money that was paid in advance for a year and a half was collected after spending money.
Of course, the facilities here are also satisfying, not to mention the calligraphy and paintings in the back room, how much the shareholders are worth, just to say that the interior of the back room is all made of gold and silver, it is enough to make people staggered.
The food is the most famous and expensive dish in all parts of the world, and a table can be worth 500,000 taels of silver, known as the first table in the world, that is, there is no more expensive recipe than this table. Compared with here, many people in the rivers and lakes of Yuelai Inn have hundreds of taels and thousands of bright wines and dishes, and they are not even worth mentioning.
As for the wine, it is all the kind that ordinary people in the rivers and lakes can't buy with money.
When Bai Ying walked into the back room of the flower, she didn't see the queen of the flower, although she didn't know it, except for a man in a cloak drinking and eating, there were only a few women in uniform waiting next to her. Of course, these women can't be the queen of flowers. (To be continued......)
