Chapter 103: Light and Dark

"Little kinky...... Did your senior brother cause some big trouble again?" Luo Shu'er exclaimed, her heart already in her throat. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"No!" replied the big head.

Luo Shu'er finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the next sentence of the big head almost made her vomit her heart, "No, no, Senior Brother Xiaomu, he-"

"He—how is he?" Luo Shu'er was short of breath.

The big head blushed and his neck was thick: "He, the place he's been to these days—"

......

"Lan Xiang Lou".

Li Xiaomu always thought that it was buried deep in Fireworks Willow Lane, but when he approached it in person for the first time before, his heart couldn't help but flutter suddenly-

It was a painting boat.

Just stop on the "Huangyuan River", the river surface is wide and magnificent, the green water and blue sky, you can't see the opposite bank at a glance, the blue waves on the water surface are vast, just like the rain washing on the horizon, the clouds are steaming.

More than a dozen colorful boats form a semicircle on the shore, arching one of the huge painting boats, which is "Lanxiang Building".

At this moment, Li Xiaomu was leaning on a rock on the shore, the surrounding vegetation was abundant, the sparkling river reflected the blue sky and white clouds, the blazing sun made him a little unable to open his eyes, the water waves were swaying, the aquatic plants were shaking, and a head secretly surfaced, and when he dived to the shore, he was just under the boulder.

"Something brought?" The man was dressed in a "fish skin", and the upper body exposed to the water did not get a splash.

Li Xiaomu nodded, took a package from behind him and threw it over.

The "shark skin" was opened and looked at, it was full of gold and silver, and he frowned slightly, "Why so little?"

"After the work is done, I will pay the other half. Li Xiaomu said.

"Shark Skin" raised his head, and his cruel gaze swirled on Li Xiaomu, "Our brothers take over the work, and never care about the future, whether it succeeds or not, it has nothing to do with us!"

"That's why I'm looking for you—" Li Xiaomu held a thin branch in his hand and scratched lightly on the stone, "There will be no trouble." ”

"Then pay the money in one go, and we'll do ours, and then we will have nothing to do with you. ”

"I heard that you 'Huang Yuan Gang', each little boss's head is worth fifty taels of silver-" Li Xiaomu said with a smile, "If you want people to know your traces-"

The eyes of "Shark Skin" suddenly showed a fierce light, and his hand slowly touched the back of his waist.

"Or, your helper knows that you want to run away with your cronies—" Li Xiaomu picked up the branches, "and before leaving, he secretly took over my big business......"

"Shark Skin's" face changed greatly, and his hand was already holding the "water splitting thorn" hidden behind him, "You, how do you know?!"

"Now that I can find your hiding place, what else do I not know?" Li Xiaomu smiled slightly.

"Shark Skin" had a murderous moment in his eyes, stepped on the water under his feet, and was about to jump ashore in an instant, but the action suddenly stopped.

I saw that Li Xiaomu was still sitting there lazily, and the branch in his hand only clicked a few times in the air, and seven or eight mosquitoes and flies landed on the stone, and none of them missed.

The tip of the "mackerel skin" brow twitched, but he still stuck the blade back.

"Do your best, and the gold and silver treasures will not be less. Li Xiaomu smiled, "Moreover, I also understand the rules of the Tao, you and I have never met, let alone talked about any 'business'." ”

"Shark Skin" hesitated for a while, and hugged his fist to Li Xiaomu, "Little brother, righteous enough, I wish you success!"

"Each other, each other. ”

The people in the water sank again, Li Xiaomu threw his eyes away, looked at the shore a hundred feet away and fell into deep thought, where the fishing boats were rocking, the fishermen were drying fish and netting, and the sound of laughter was spread far and wide in the air......

......

Bao inquired that he won again today, and it was a big win, because his ante bets were glittering real money, so the more he invested, the more he gained. But just as he was walking back with joy, a figure flashing out of the alley made his heart half cold.

"Little, little master-" Bao inquired and greeted with a bitter face, "Just let me go, I'll tell you everything I know in 'Mountain City', and besides, they can kill me!"

"The people of the 'Huang Yuan Gang' are very easy to get along with. Li Xiaomu said with a smile, "Also, the things I bought in the 'dark market' are also very good." ”

Bao inquired's face turned pale, "Huh? you, you're really going—uh...... I—I don't know anything!

"That's right, none of this has anything to do with you—" Li Xiaomu raised an eyebrow at him, "Of course, after you answered my next question." ”

Bao inquired and lowered his head, "Master, I will be killed by you sooner or later." The people and things you inquire about are all disgraceful, and any one of them may make me die without a place to bury!"

"This time it saw the light. Li Xiaomu still smiled, and stuffed two silver ingots into his pocket, the corners of his mouth twitched, but there was no joy on his face, "Moreover, the person I want to inquire about is not a flood beast...... On the contrary, it is a beautiful girl. ”

"Huh?" Bao inquired and looked up, "Y-What you're talking about—"

......

"Chunyun Willow?!" Luo Shu'er said strangely, "This name sounds so strange. ”

In the evening, Li Xiaomu hadn't come back yet, and several other people sat in a circle in the guest room, talking in a whisper.

"Isn't it strange-" Tao Tao took a big sip of the teacup and ran non-stop in the city for a day, she had already had a dry mouth, but she still found out some news, "She is the head of the eight courtyards in the capital, and she has come to the 'Pangshan City' in recent days to participate in the 'Flower Picking Meeting', and the place where she is stationed is the 'Lanxiang Building'!"

"Eight Courtyards, Top Cards, Passing Scenes, Flower Picking and Fang Meeting......" Luo Shu'er and the others were stunned, they had lived in the mountain gate for a long time, and they were quite unfamiliar with these words.

Tao Tao frowned, hesitated for a while and said a few words, the voice was very small, but several people heard it clearly.

Luo Shu'er's eyes widened instantly, "Ah?!Qinglou?Famous prostitute!" Her face turned red, "It turns out that the little lewd thief is still a thief, and he wants to go to that kind of dirty place!"

"Shhhh......h Senior brother, what about you, what have you discovered?" she turned to Zhong Zichao.

The guy's expression was still stunned, "He went to a lot of places in one day, casinos, restaurants, teahouses, riversides, talisman shops, rouge shops, woodware shops, paint stalls...... Oh, and by the way, there's also a very stylish and time-honored shop, which is a tailor's shop. ”

"Hmm, rouge, wood, paint......" Luo Shu'er was puzzled, "What is he doing in those places?"

"I don't know—" Zhong Zichao shook his head, "He's very alert, I don't dare to get too close." ”

Tao Tao fell into deep thought.

"Senior sister, when is that 'Fang Hui'—" Luo Shu'er asked.

"Tomorrow night......" Tao Tao whispered, "Somebody's coming." ”

Tao Tao was by the door, stood up gently, and pushed the door open a crack, but saw a tall and thin person go up the building, turn into the corner of the corridor and enter the guest room, it turned out to be not Li Xiaomu, Tao Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief......

......

This night, Li Xiaomu did not return all night, and when the rooster crowed at dawn, he pushed open the door of the inn and swayed upstairs, Luo Shuer lay on the table, awakened by the sound of footsteps, staring at the tired figure from the crack in the window, clenching his silver teeth, and holding back his anger.

Li Xiaomu slept in the room for a whole day, and when he came out again in the evening, his complexion was very good, and he also put on a new set of clothes, tailoring shoulders, densely woven gowns, silk gauze were all made of high-quality materials, and the shoes under his feet were also from the century-old "Rui Fusheng" in Beijing, and there was a small fan pinned to his waist.

Luo Shu'er looked at him, stunned for a long time, and then remembered where he was going tonight, and then her eyes widened, her cheeks puffed out, and she was sullen and angry.

It is true that after Li Xiaomu changed into this brocade dress, the whole person changed in an instant, and there was also a kind of graceful and chic attitude, so it attracted the attention of the guests downstairs, and a young woman from a rich family looked straight in the eyes, a peanut fell from between her chopsticks.

Li Xiaomu looked a little proud, sat at the table, and raised his eyebrows at Luo Shu'er, "Little junior sister, how is it?

Luo Shu'er snorted hatefully, "Little lewd thief!"

Tao Tao hurriedly took over the conversation, "Senior brother is really handsome tonight, I don't know if I want to-"

Li Xiaomu took a sip of wine and said with a smile, "Looking for fun, this city is big and wide, and it really makes people forget to return." ”

"It's good for junior brother to regain his mood and relax—" Tao Tao also smiled, and then lowered his voice, "Just don't get into any more trouble." ”

Li Xiaomu smiled knowingly, and his voice was also very small, "Don't worry, my little brother knows how to measure, eat and drink, have fun, and find a beautiful woman to enjoy the bright moon together...... As soon as tonight is over, let's get down to business tomorrow. ”

Tao Tao's eyes flashed, "Is this true?

"Of course, otherwise I'm afraid someone will rebel against me. Li Xiaomu glanced at Luo Shu'er a few times, intentionally or unintentionally. The girl was even more depressed.

"Okay, let's go-" After a few glasses of wine, Li Xiaomu stood up slowly, and the big head next to him also left his seat, but he pressed it, "The place to wait is not suitable for you, just stay here with the senior brothers and sisters-" He saw that Luo Shu'er was also eager to try, and said with a smile, "Little junior sister, you are even more unsuitable...... Remember, no one is to run around tonight—" he quietly pointed upstairs, his voice as low as a gnat, "take care of our net worth, don't let anything happen on the last night." ”

Li Xiaomu finally disappeared from the street, Luo Shu'er suppressed her anger, and wanted to arrest that guy back, hang him and beat him violently, but she had to listen to Tao Tao's -

Senior Sister had already made arrangements last night, and tonight, Senior Sister and Senior Brother Zhong secretly followed to "Lanxiang Building" to secretly monitor the "little prostitute thief"'s every move...... And she herself can only stay at the inn with her big head in case of emergency.

But she also had her own calculations in mind, and the plan was moving towards her expectations. It's just that after following his companions upstairs, he didn't notice that in the corner of the hall, there was a dark flickering gaze peeking at them, tall and thin, inconspicuous......
