Chapter Eighty-Five: Oiran Mei'er
A huge knock on the door wafted on the empty street, Shen Yun and the other eight people stopped for a moment, but no one came to open the door, and the thunderstorm couldn't hold back, and shouted: "Listen, the people inside! If you don't open the door for us, your door will be smashed!"
Seeing that there was still no movement inside, the thunderstorm flame arm suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and the entire gate of the City Lord's Mansion was dyed blood red, and the powerful power was violently filled in all directions.
At this time, a trembling voice came from the inside of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and said, "You guys, it shouldn't be a red ghost, right?"
Shen Yun finally heard a sound in the door, and immediately replied loudly: "A few of us are naturally not ghosts, but passers-by who have come to stay overnight. β
After a while, the vermilion gate was slowly opened, and a sneaky head poked out, and after looking left and right, he opened a small opening in the door and said anxiously: "A few people, please come in!"
Shen Yun and the others saw that he looked anxious, and they didn't want to ask too many questions, so they entered one by one from the small mouth.
When the little guy saw everyone enter the door, he immediately closed the door, and more than ten door bolts were immediately sealed, and then he exhaled deeply and said: "You seem to have come from afar, the city lord is in the study of the side hall, please come with me!"
Shen Yun bowed slightly, and replied lightly: "There is little brother Lao." β
Seeing that Shen Yun was polite, a few people behind him were quite arrogant, and there were female dependents on his side, he gradually relaxed his vigilance, and said as he walked: "You guys are really bold enough, in the middle of the night, you dare to walk around the streets of Shuotian City, and you haven't been caught by the red ghosts, you are considered a great cultivator!"
Cang Zhe was very curious about the red ghost from just now, and asked, "What is the origin of the red ghost that the little brother said, why haven't I heard of it in the past?"
The little guy looked around cautiously and said: "A few people don't know, in the past, our Shuotian City was prosperous and prosperous, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, but for some reason, two years ago, every late at night, there were ghost-like dirty things in the city, no matter men, women, young and old, as long as they were walking on the street, they were all taken away, and they never came back!"
Seeing Shen Yun and the others frowning, the little guy then said: "Later, someone saw a shadow with his own eyes, born with red hair, so the name of the red ghost gradually spread in the city. During the day, everyone is fine, but every late at night, the door of the house is closed, and they don't dare to go out again!"
Shen Yun was relieved and knew why the family insisted on refusing to open the door.
The eight people followed the little maid in the city lord's mansion left and right, and came to a side hall, which was lit with extremely weak candlelight, the little maid bowed down and said: "Several, someone has already passed through the city lord just now, he is inside, the little one will not bother, please come in!"
Shen Yun and the others glanced at each other, then sank into the study and walked slowly into the study.
As soon as I entered the study, I saw a haggard man sitting at the table, about fifty years old, holding a cinnabar pen in his hand, and painting on the file with a sad face.
Hearing everyone walk in, he raised his eyes to look at Shen Yun and the others, and said listlessly: "You are passing guests, right? It can be regarded as wronging you, you can't find a place to stay in Shuotian at night, so you can stay here today! Please sit aside for a while, I will review this dossier, and then arrange for you." β
The middle-aged city lord couldn't help but sigh after speaking, and lowered his head again and began to review.
Cang Zhe took a step forward, arched his hand, and said: "I don't know the name of the city lord, a few of us are merchants from Taili Zhongzhou, and we want to go to the southern Xinjiang demon clan to collect some rare and strange treasures, and I hope to make it convenient to give us a few waist cards to enter and exit southern Xinjiang." β
Cang Zhe's words interrupted the city lord who was concentrating, and there was a slight displeasure on his face, and he replied angrily: "My name is Bi Kun, if you have anything to say, wait until I finish reading the official document and then discuss it!"
At this time, from the side door of the study, a young and handsome boy walked in, playing with a string of white and flawless lilacs in his hand, and chanted intoxicatingly: "Wonderful dance leaves fragrant crispy fingers, exquisite and charming eyes and teeth." It's really hard to find in the world, Mei'er, wait for me ......"
As soon as Bi Kun saw this person come out, he immediately put down the cinnabar pen in his hand, walked over quickly, and hurriedly said: "Okay, let Mei'er wait for you, hurry up and go to sleep, I'll see her tomorrow!"
Shen Yun saw that there seemed to be something wrong with this man, and suddenly, Wanxiu's voice appeared in his mind: "Childe, this handsome young man has been hooked by someone, so his eyes are scattered, his feelings are confused, and he has no shame." β
Shen Yun was surprised and asked, "In Shuotian City, there are still strange things, what are you talking about?"
Wanxiu said again: "Childe, Jue Soul is what we usually call the Three Souls and Seven Souls, one of the three souls, the three souls are the soul, the Jue Soul, and the Born Soul. This person, the soul is already out of the body, and after a while, I am afraid that he will completely fall into the demonic barrier!"
Shen Yun couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, and blurted out and shouted: "Mr. Bi, slow down! Is this your son? Please listen to me, otherwise, in a few years, he will suffer a great disaster!"
Bi Kun turned his head abruptly, looked at Shen Yun in surprise, saw that his eyes were firm, and a spark of hope suddenly ignited in his eyes, and hurriedly asked: "Strange old man doesn't know how to count etiquette, I don't know how many noble surnames and big names? Little brother, do you know how to remove the evil obstacles on my son? If you can do it, Bi Mou will immediately give a few waist cards to enter the demon clan in Southern Xinjiang!"
Shen Yun smiled and nodded, and after introducing the eight people one by one, he said exactly what Fang Cai Wanxiu said, only to hear that Bi Kun nodded again and again, and his eyes gradually moistened.
He sighed and said, "Alas...... My son, named Bi Tianluo, is the only seedling of my Bi family, before he got this strange disease, he was a well-known talent in Shuotian City, full of economy, intelligent and abnormal, even the husband who taught him sighed to himself, but he didn't expect that two years ago, he suddenly became this crazy appearance......"
Xiya quietly stabbed Shen Yun in the waist and asked quietly: "Do you really know what the Three Souls and Seven Spirits are?" Don't be foolish, you see that this old man is so pitiful, if he is deceived by you, and then finds a short sight, it will be a big sin!"
Shen Yun glanced at her and replied: "God gives you two ears and a mouth, just to let you listen more and talk less!
Xi Yaxiu frowned, but she couldn't get angry, and stretched out her hand to move the "killing move" again on Shen Yun's waist, which hurt so much that he grinned his teeth, and in front of Bi Kun, he was embarrassed to scream.
Seeing his distorted face, Bi Kun asked curiously, "Is there anything wrong with Childe?" Do you want me to find a doctor to show you?" β
Xiya leaned out, laughed coquettishly, and replied: "Don't be surprised, Lord City, this guy hasn't eaten for a day and a night, so he can't bear to be hungry, so he makes that strange look." β
Bi Kun's sad face suddenly faded, and he said with a smile: "What should I do!" Bi Mou actually neglected the distinguished guests, forgive the sins, please follow me to the Heshan Pavilion, let's talk while eating." β
Changxi waited on the side for a while, his stomach was already rumbling, in order not to embarrass everyone, he kept pressing his hands tightly on his stomach, and when he heard that he was going to eat a big meal now, he immediately glowed with glory.
As soon as he left his stomach, a loud gurgling sound surrounded the study, and Changxi's originally fair face was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and he really didn't dare to look up at everyone again.
Xiya covered her nose and said angrily: "Brother, you really support me for the faΓ§ade!"
When everyone saw this, they burst out laughing.
......
He Shan Pavilion.
When Shen Yun saw the plates of delicacies, his appetite suddenly increased, he ate it for a long time, touched his bulging belly, and said with a smile: "Thank you Mr. Bi for your hospitality, in order to thank you, a few of us plan to help Tianluo Gongzi recover his lost soul, but I just need you to give me some clues!"
Bi Kun said with some embarrassment: "Alas...... Don't hide it from you, my son, although smart, but is a wandering lover, since adulthood, he wandered in the fireworks willow lane, happy to do it, two years ago, he lived in the Boyue Building for three months, I was really angry, so I sent someone to take him back, but I didn't know that it became like this!"
Shen Yun pondered for a moment and asked, "I don't know who Mei'er he is talking about, is she also a dusty woman?"
Bi Kun nodded indifferently and said: "She is the Oiran of Boyue Building, according to legend, her appearance is charming, her dancing posture is outstanding, and she is familiar with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting...... Alas......"
Shen Yun's eyes flashed, and he said, "Mr. Bi, Shuotian City has also been in Shuotian City since two years ago, has the night become unpeaceful?"
Bi Kun's face suddenly tightened, and he replied: "That's true, I have also thought about it, what is involved in this, how can I investigate and secretly visit for a long time, but there is no result, and it will be over, Shen Gongzi also has a way to deal with the matter of the red ghost?"
Shen Yun smiled faintly: "I just have some ideas, please rest assured, we will do our best to find out these two things!"
Seeing that they were all handsome and extraordinary, Bi Kun should have some extraordinary skills, and said excitedly: "Everyone, if you can completely solve this matter, it will not only be a great kindness to me, but also to the people of the whole city, please accept Bi someone's worship!"
After saying that, he was about to lean over and kneel, but Shen Yun was quick and helped him up.
Bi Kun saw that his expression was relaxed, as if he didn't use half of his strength, but his body stood up lightly, and he admired him even more, and thanked him again and again.
Suddenly, there was a trace of sadness between his eyebrows, and he said: "Ladies and gentlemen, in the past, I have also invited many cultivators to practice in the city, but they were nowhere to be found on the second day, so no matter how capable a few people are, try not to leave the city lord's mansion in the middle of the night, otherwise it will be more auspicious!"
Chai Fang smiled and said: "This, the city lord doesn't have to worry, if there are really any red ghosts, I'm afraid it's too late to hide from us!"
Shen Yun and the others asked Bi Kun a lot about Shuotian City before saying goodbye to Bi Kun and taking him to the bedroom where he stayed.
Cang Zhe and Shen Yun's rooms were next to each other, and when they were about to enter the room, Cang Zhe asked, "Where do we start tomorrow?"
Shen Yun smiled slyly and replied, "That Mei'er is so amazingly rumored, I really can't help but want to see the real face......!"
After that, he laughed and entered his room, Cang Zhe sighed secretly, and said to himself: "Shen Yun is really ...... Fortunately, Yana girl lives far away......"
