The old mother commanded the workers to hurriedly repair the damaged building, not only did not let Zhou Tai and others pay for compensation, but instead offered a box of rare snake fruit as a gift of reparation, which happened to be served by the two women who were forcibly occupied by Liu Lao Er before.

The two respectfully put the snake fruit on the table, cast a grateful look at Wan Ning, and slowly exited the box. Wan Ning didn't speak, just smiled faintly. He understands the saying that people have their own lives, and he will never look down on the dusty woman, after all, if it is not forced by life, who is willing to sell his body.

"I've caused trouble to Wan Daoyou today, but Daoyou's skills are really extraordinary, and it's really intimidating. ”

After the turmoil, the stage in the hall began to babble and perform, everyone sat in the box on the second floor, and the graceful demeanor on the stage was at a glance, Zhou Tai picked up a snake fruit, hummed and gnawed clean, and said to Wanning.

"I can't talk about trouble, besides, after all, I am also a spiritual cultivator from a big sect, if I lose to these three-legged cats, wouldn't it be a loss to the name of the Aoki Sect. ”

Wanning generally said to Zhou Tai, generally picked up the snake fruit on the table, or the first time to eat this kind of thing, it is said to be produced in the forest of the Eastern Expedition, because the shape of the pattern is like snake skin, so it is named. He only took a bite, and the full juice immediately scattered and splashed, slightly sour with sweetness, and fragrant, which Wan Ning liked very much.

The two were in a good mood, so they chatted about the world, from the female dancers in the audience to national politics, from the south of the world to Shanxi and Hedong, and they felt more and more attached to each other, so they simply called them brothers, and the relationship was more cordial.

For most of the rest of the time, there was no regeneration, under the arrangement of the shopkeeper Kui, Wan Ning followed Zhou Tai's plan to visit the well-known attractions of the entire Chang'an Mansion, and Zhou Tai, as a senior gourmet, took Wan Ning to a lot of personal restaurants with his own private collection, which made him feel big.

The happy time is always very short, Wan Ning with a round little belly, contented collapsed in the soft sedan chair, he opened the curtains, looked at the lights of Chang'an Mansion, and felt the gentle lake breeze on a summer night.

"Brother Wan, it seems that we have to go back early. ”

Zhou Tai lifted the curtain and said to Wanning next to him.

"Is there something going on?"

Wan Ning straightened up and asked Zhou Tai.

"I don't know what happened when that son of my family came back to me, although I don't know what happened to him, but I have to go back to see him, if he has one thousandth of the ability of ten thousand brothers, I will wake up laughing in my dreams!"

Zhou Tai sighed, and most of the good mood of the day was ruined by this news at this time. He knows his unsuccessful son too well, and he doesn't touch his family for half a year, and once he comes home to find him, it's almost all bad things.

"Brother Zhou has an overreputation, we can go back now, and I will do a good job of the paper figure as soon as possible to deal with the paper ghost. ”

Wan Ning smiled humbly and nodded in agreement.

"Since we want to rush back as soon as possible, let's take a shortcut and go back from the slums, shall we?"

Shopkeeper Kui asked Zhou Tai.

"Hmm... All right... That's fine. ”

Hearing the word slum, Zhou Tai subconsciously frowned, and then replied.

Since it was affirmed by Zhou Tai, the sedan chair quickly set off and rushed to another fork in the road.

Although Wan Canghai retired from the army and became the head of the mansion, he quickly got rid of the name of the poor mansion by virtue of his outstanding ability, and soon got rid of the name of the poor house, even if there were no too rich people or chambers of commerce, but it ensured that everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment, and there was no aberration of slums.

For the first time, Wanning saw the slums in their true form, unlike the prosperous center of Chang'an, which was full of filth and garbage, or simple wooden or thatched houses, children with dirty cheeks running around in rags, and beggars lying on the ground, some with pus, attracting flies to bite.

And Zhou Tai and his entourage were gorgeously dressed and the carriage was brilliant, which can be seen everywhere on the streets of Chang'anfu, but it is so dazzling and out of place in this muddy alley.

Rao is a human being in two lives, and when he saw this scene, Wan Ning couldn't help but feel emotional. And when he was about to get out of the slum, Wan Ning caught a glimpse of one of the women he had protected in the Dongqing Building.

At this time, she took off her sexy long skirt, took off her gorgeous makeup, and changed into a simple brown cloth dress.

As if noticing Wan Ning's gaze, or Zhou Tai's sedan chair was too conspicuous, the woman in cloth hurriedly turned her face away, and in a hurry, she stepped into the dirty water and disappeared into a small brick house.

Wan Ning, who witnessed all this, retracted into the carriage as if he was the child who had made a mistake.

He wanted to chat with Zhou Tai and resolve the embarrassment, but Wan Ning found that Zhou Tai's expression was unexpectedly complicated, even with a hint of... Imperceptible grief.

With a heavy heart, several people finally left the slum. However, Wan Ning looked at the small graves all around the trail and couldn't help but be a little stunned.

"On this part of the road out of the slum, there is a mass grave, most of the poor who are sick and dead and cannot be buried, so they take a straw mat and wrap it, dig a pit and bury it. ”

Shopkeeper Kui saw Wan Ning's expression and introduced.

"But how can there be a big grave bag over there, could it be that a giant is buried in it?"

Wan Ning looked at a large protruding tomb on the other side, the head of which was surprisingly carved with a wooden tablet, and he turned his head to the shopkeeper Kui and asked.

"Fourteen years ago, for unknown reasons, a fire broke out in the slums, killing many people, some of them with their entire families, so the surrounding residents simply buried them together, and this joint burial tomb was formed. ”

Without waiting for the shopkeeper to answer, Zhou Tai preemptively said, his description was methodical and his expression was calm.

"I see, these poor people are really miserable. ”

Wan Ning shook his head and sighed, but suddenly his face changed drastically, and a layer of fine sweat broke out on his forehead.

"What's wrong, Brother Wan. ”

Seeing Wan Ning's appearance, Zhou Tai asked with some concern.

"I... I'm sorry I just had a bad stomach, I've got to find a place right now!

Wan Ning's face was gloomy, he suddenly raised his head, said to Zhou Tai and the shopkeeper Kui, and then turned out the sedan chair three times and divided five by two, regardless of the dissuasion of several people, covered his stomach and ran towards the inside of the mass grave, and soon disappeared.

"On this big night, seeing that I was about to go back to my home, I didn't expect that Master Wan Xianshi would dare to go to the mass grave to solve the problem. ”

A few grooms who traveled with Zhou Tai whispered.

"There's no way, people have three urgency, that thing suddenly doesn't give up, even if the gate of Zhoufu is in front of you, it must be solved nearby." ”

Another burly groom said with a smile.

"It's endless, behind the scenes to discuss what others do!"

Zhou Tai, who had been silent, suddenly reprimanded, and several people hurriedly admitted their mistakes, then handed each other colors and shut up obediently.

After a full quarter of an hour, when Zhou Tai and the others were worried about Wan Ning's safety, Wan Ning took a roll of jade and slowly walked back from the depths of the mass grave with a pile of blue phosphorus fire.

"Comfortable, comfortable, let's leave immediately, it's a lot of time to delay Brother Zhou. ”

Wan Ning stepped into the sedan chair with a big grin and smiled at a few people.

"Brother Wan is fine, by the way, you haven't encountered anything dirty. ”

Zhou Tai said in a relaxed and relieved tone, then lowered his tone and asked Wan Ning with concern.

"There's nothing dirty, it's all nonsense. ”

Wan Ning waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

"Is that so..."

Zhou Tai turned his face away, and his tone was a little strange, so that Wan Ning couldn't see his expression clearly.
