Chapter 27: The Human Heart
Honghuabu is a famous meat selling place in Xincheng, and there are a large number of brothels gathered here.
Wang He thought it was some kind of elegant place, but after he came, he found that there was only a skin and meat business, not the kind of green building recorded in ancient Chinese history.
One of the two is a high-end club for dignitaries and nobles, and the other is a red-light district in the alleys frequented by ordinary people and peddlers.
You can see that on both sides of the alleys of Honghuabu, most of them are narrow rooms with small windows open, and scantily clad women scratch their heads and gesture to passers-by by the windows, attracting guests.
"Sang Ziming lives in this kind of place, and he can still clean himself, he is indeed a righteous man and a gentleman." Wang He commented.
"Well, Sister Lianxiang took a fancy to him and became friends with him, this kind of relationship is really enviable." Xin Shi Niang chuckled, she pulled the brim of her cloak very low, and her pretty face covered most of it.
Wang He smiled and said nothing, he was really a simple fox demon.
In his opinion, this is a very clichΓ© story, the fox girl repays the favor, the scholar has love, and there are female ghosts involved, and the three of them have an absurd and bizarre experience because of love.
The two walked through the red light district located in the west of Honghuabu, came to the people's residential area in the east, and saw lotus incense outside an alley.
If you take a closer look, she is indeed a beauty who has captivated the country and the city, although she also wears a cloak and a veil to cover her face, but that stunning temperament can't hide it.
The equally beautiful Xin Shi Niang, after seeing her sister, happily stepped forward to meet her, and generously introduced Wang He.
"It turned out to be the benefactor of Fourteen Niang." Lianxiang was very respectful, "The fox clan will repay if there is kindness, and if the prince is sent in the future, we will definitely repay it with all our might." β
Wang He smiled and said politely.
Later, under the guidance of Lianxiang, he arrived at the small courtyard rented by Sang Ziming.
After calling twice and no one answered, Lianxiang's face became not very good-looking, and explained: "Sang Ziming is greedy for the beauty of the female ghost, obsessed, and does not listen to my advice, I haven't seen him for a hundred days, it seems that he has now been hollowed out by the female ghost, and he can't even open the door." β
"There are really no good men in the world." Xin Shi Niang couldn't help but sigh, and after saying it, she remembered that Wang He was still by her side, and hurriedly wanted to apologize, but she didn't know what to say.
"Wang Gongzi is so old, but Yuanyang has not been lost, he will be a good man in the future, and my sister is blessed." Lianxiang said.
Xin Shi Niang blushed suddenly, but she didn't refute it, the fox girl repaid her kindness, she felt that this was a matter of course.
Wang He smiled and nodded, he was not a true gentleman who sat still.
Then Lianxiang didn't knock on the door again, and directly cast a spell to unlock the door, entered the small courtyard, and saw the thin scholar Sang Ziming in an empty house.
"Hillbilly, am I talking nonsense?" Lianxiang sneered in front of her.
"I was wrong." Sang Ziming couldn't cry silently, and begged Lianxiang to save him quickly.
"You are terminally ill and incurable, and I have come to say goodbye to you to prove that I am not jealous." Lian Xiang said indifferently.
Sang Ziming was very sad, knowing that Lianxiang had resentment in his heart, and said, "There is something under my pillow, please break it for me." β
Lian Xiang found something under the pillow, and when she saw that it was an embroidered shoe, she took it to the lamp and looked at it repeatedly.
"Spiritual weapons?" Wang He's eyes moved slightly, and he felt the familiar spiritual fluctuations on the embroidered shoes.
Suddenly, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old woman walked in from outside the door, her hair was scattered, her arms were drooping, and her long sleeves were mopping the floor.
"This is a female ghost." Wang He exclaimed, he had killed many resentful spirits, and had destroyed the painted skin demons in the Qi refining period, but he had never seen such a beautiful female ghost.
At this time, the female ghost Li saw that there were so many people in the house, and turned around and wanted to escape.
Lianxiang's figure flashed, blocking the door.
Li was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to go.
Sang Ziming also began to accuse the Li family, knowing that humans and ghosts could not get along, but he had to seduce him and rejoice with him every night.
Lee was speechless.
"You can't jump to conclusions." Wang He shook his head slightly.
The fox girl has a good heart, and the ghost is not an evil ghost, but a person is not a righteous gentleman.
Xin Shi Niang had the same opinion, her brows furrowed, she wanted to persuade Lianxiang, but she didn't know where to start.
"What such a man can do to save him." Wang He couldn't stand it anymore.
Even though the Li family is at fault, in the final analysis, Sang Ziming can't control his lower body, and what kind of face does he have to accuse others.
This kind of man who eats soft rice without any ability can still sit on two stunning ghost foxes, God is really blind.
"Yes, what will you do to save him!" Xin Shi Niang felt that this was very right, but she was kind-hearted, and quickly corrected: "God has the virtue of a good life, sister, we saved him, let's go." β
Lianxiang began to hesitate.
Sang Ziming was a little confused, and his crying paused, thinking to himself, who are these two?
Then he cried louder and worse.
According to the past, selling miserably can always win the love of the two beauties.
"Sister Lianxiang, save Sanglang, save him." Sure enough, Li knelt down and cried and pleaded.
"Ugh." Lianxiang sighed, she was also kind-hearted, stepped forward to help Li up, and asked her life in detail.
"I am the daughter of Li Tongju, a teenager who died and was buried outside the hospital." Li said, "I am like a dead spring silkworm, the love is not broken, and it is my wish to be friendly with Sang Lang, and it is indeed not out of my heart to kill him." β
"You're so stupid." Lianxiang shook her head, "People can't stand it every night, let alone people and ghosts?" β
"I see." Li Shi said sadly, "No wonder my mother-in-law asked me to come over, saying that whether I like Sang Lang or not, I am harming him." β
"Mother-in-law?" Wang He, Xin Shi Niang, and Lian Xiang were all surprised.
"It's the county lord of Phoenix Mountain." Li explained, "My mother-in-law asked me to approach Sang Lang, and when Sang Lang had a physical problem, she asked me to inform her so that I could treat Sang Lang. β
Wang He frowned, this matter is very familiar, isn't it a trick played by Daoist Ming Xia and the painted skin demon?
Hurt others and save others, so as to gain a good reputation and collect more incense.
The god of incense and fire in the underworld also plays like this?
At this time, Sang Ziming, who was lying on the bed, was even more stunned after hearing this, and then scolded loudly, saying that the Li family really came to harm him.
"Sanglang, you, you ......" Li was still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old female ghost, and he didn't know how to refute it, and he was a little desperate for a while.
"Shall we go?" Wang He felt that staying here was a waste of time, so it was better to go to the wild to farm monsters.
"Forget it, save his life, it's not in vain for my sincerity." Lian Xiang sighed, untied the medicine bag, and took out the pills, "I knew that there was today, and I collected medicine everywhere for three months, and I got all the prescriptions. β
After giving Sang Ziming two in a row, he heard his stomach ringing like thunder, and he was cured of his illness after a while, and his whole person was refreshed.
What a waste!
Wang He looked at the heartache, these are two low-grade elixirs.
Then Lianxiang and Li ignored Sang Ziming's crying and begging to stay, and left with Wang He and Xin Shisi Niang.
Let the two stunning ghost foxes see the true face of the scholar clearly, even if there is still friendship in their hearts, they will not stay.
After leaving Honghuabu, Wang He asked Lianxiang: "You are proficient in medical skills, and you are also good at collecting elixir, I don't know where there is a place to grow elixir?" β
"In the depths of famous mountains and rivers, there are elixirs growing." Lianxiang said truthfully, "There are also a lot of elixirs in the nearby Phoenix Mountain and Dalong Mountain, but Phoenix Mountain is the place of the county king, and we can't pick it there."
And the ghosts and monsters in Dalong Mountain are mixed, although it is dangerous, as long as you don't go deep into it, you can also find some useful elixirs. β
Wang He wrote it down.
