Volume 3, Qianchuan Ze Chapter 223, Drunken Incense Building
Shamrock Island is a small island at the junction of the inland sea and the open sea, and when viewed from a high altitude, it looks like the blades of a three-branch branch stretching out on the sea level, hence the name.
The island is bustling with people, and unlike the unnamed islands where you usually rest, there are many experienced boatmen and profiteers who sell maps, and they make money from the winds and waves of the sea demarcation line, although they have some conscience, but they are also understandable.
Everyone has to eat and live, as long as there is a way to take the gold and silver out of other people's pockets and put it in their own pockets, then this is the ability.
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, it is naturally inseparable from love and hatred, and no matter how bitter and bitter the rivers and lakes are, they will go to the drunken fragrance building to stay overnight, and spend the Spring Festival with young and beautiful women.
At the time of today's lantern, Lu Da Swordsman was a little drunk, and he couldn't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest, so he just looked at the bright signboard hanging and the shopkeeper was outside to greet and send him, so he rushed in.
If he knew that it was the Zuixiang Building that he had entered, he would not dare to borrow a hundred dares, Wen Jiu fascinated the swordsman's eyes, and walked into the lobby without looking up to carefully see what was written on the signboard.
"Whoa, it tastes so fragrant, there must be a lot of good food, who's the guy?"
Lu Haoran walked to the middle of the lobby with a drunken and flushed face, and after looking around, he found that although there were some tables, chairs and benches here, there were some melons, fruits, pears and peaches and various snacks on them, and there was no delicacy at all as he imagined.
Moreover, the lights in the entire floor were dim, and the red and green lights made Lu Haoran feel a little depressed.
"Oh, this little swordsman, don't shout here, let the slave accompany you, can you have two drinks?" From behind the stairs came a tall young woman, wearing a mink shawl, wrapped in a three-foot-long rag on her body, and her flesh was hidden.
Walking in front of Lu Haoran and gently shaking the fan, the pungent aroma instantly made Lu Haoran delirious, and he grabbed it and said, "Man, I'm here for you to eat good wine and good food, I can eat as much as I want!"
This woman's name is Hu Yanran, she is the second ranked Mei Niang in Zuixiang Building, after seeing Lu Haoran's performance, she was very satisfied, so she called two mothers-in-law and helped Lu Haoran to follow her to the room on the second floor.
The airtightness of the rooms in Zuixianglou is very good, there is a big movement inside, and the outside is not known at all, the furnishings inside are also very comfortable, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are readily available, and the decoration of each room is also different, suitable for guests with different needs.
Lu Haoran sat on the edge of the round table in a daze, holding his cheeks and waiting for the delicious food to be served, he had no intention of watching the night scene outside the window, he was completely carried away by the fragrance.
After waiting for a long time, I saw that the female guy who greeted me earlier had changed into lighter clothes, which could only block the vital parts.
"Little swordsman, how about drinking a glass of freshly brewed osmanthus wine and tasting the craftsmanship of our Zuixianglou?" Hu Yanran said, then filled the wine glass, picked it up and fed it to Lu Haoran.
Before he could drink the wine, he heard the sound of a fight outside, and a woman smashed through the door, flew into the room, and smashed the flask.
The angry Hu Yanran scolded: "Where are the outlaws from outside! I don't know if this is the Zuixiang Building!"
"Hu Yanran, what a big breath, look at who I am!" A son-in-law shouted loudly, Hu Yanran followed the voice and looked next door, so frightened that his soul was not possessed!
Their drunken fragrance building, the owner of the patron is Caojiazhuang, so in this acre of three points of land, no one dares to touch them, Hu Yanran has been here for five or six years, and she has been a little arrogant to the point that she doesn't know who her surname is.
Seeing each other's appearances, I was chuckling in my heart, how could Cao Leng, the fifth young master of the Cao family, suddenly visit here?
Look at Cao Leng in disheveled clothes, with slap marks on his face, and on the bed in the next room, there is a beautiful woman half-lying, looking at Cao Leng angrily.
Hu Yanran immediately understood in her heart, and then smiled: "Hehe, it turned out that the fifth young master was here, who should I be, in this drunken incense building, you can beat and scold, you are all your people!"
"Oh, that's a nice word, it's all my people, so why doesn't she obey me!" Cao Leng stretched out his hand and pointed at the beautiful woman, "What kind of oiran do you call yourself, I think it's bullshit!
As he spoke, he shook his sleeve robe, flew out a bright dagger, and went straight to the girl's door, these people in the drunken incense building have not practiced any martial arts, how can they dodge.
Seeing that he was about to be stabbed to death by the dagger, suddenly a sword qi accurately blocked the dagger and knocked the dagger to the ground.
Cao Leng's face sank when he saw this, "Who did it secretly! Brave enough to stand up and make two moves with the master!"
"What are you, bullying an unarmed woman, if you apologize today, it's okay, if you don't apologize, I'll cut off your head and hang it outside this window!"
The immortal sword flew out from the scabbard on his waist and shot towards Cao Leng's heart, although Cao Leng was a cultivator of the sixth layer of the Tianyang Realm, where was he Lu Haoran's opponent, he clenched the short dagger with both hands and wanted to resist, and as soon as he twisted his body, he found that the tip of the sword had already been pointed on Cao Leng's clothes.
Moving forward for half a minute, Cao Leng's life was over, "You! Do you know who I am! The fifth young master of the Cao Family Chamber of Commerce, you won't be able to survive if you kill me!"
Cao Leng was so frightened that a cold sweat broke out, flowing down his neck, for fear that the other party would not pay attention, and the long sword penetrated his chest and strung himself into a sugar gourd.
Lu Haoran laughed, helped the girl up and asked, "What is the girl's name?" Eating here, how could you meet such a villain, whether he lives or dies, it all depends on your decision!"
What he rescued was the Oiran of the Drunken Xianglou, Mu Ningxiang, although this woman didn't know any martial arts, she was calm and abnormal, and she was by no means from a mortal family.
"The little woman's name is Mu Ningxiang, and she temporarily lives in this drunken incense building, and she doesn't know who the life-saving benefactor is. Mu Ningxiang owes a gift, and that kind of weak appearance is worthy of a man's pity.
The Oiran had only been here for more than three months, and she had taken the Oiran from Hu Yanran, so the latter had always held a grudge, and she wished that something would happen to the other party and give up the throne of the Oiran again.
Lu Haoran shook his head and said: "My name is Lu Haoran, Yan Jian Dao is my master's, it will be passed to me in a while, when the time comes, you will all come to Yan Jian Dao to play with me, and I will hold a banquet to entertain you! Hahaha, don't be scared to pee your pants, whether you are dead or alive depends on the girl's words!"
"Benefactor, let him go, after all, the Cao family is the owner of Zuixiang Building, and it will not end well if he is too out of line. Even though Mu Ningxiang knew that it was inappropriate to let Cao Leng go, she didn't want to offend the Cao family, her own brother, and she was still on an errand in the Cao family.
Mu Ningxiang's parents died when she was a child, and she took her younger brother to a foreign land, and finally survived by eating a mouthful of food, if this time because of herself, she killed Cao Leng and was topped by the Cao family, so why would her brother have a life?
"Okay! Count your kid's life big, hurry up and get out! The girl doesn't want to, and she still wants to use a strong one!" Lu Haoran beckoned, and the immortal sword flickered, slapped Cao Leng's left shoulder, and grinned Cao Leng's teeth.
Cao Leng smiled and flew out of the Drunken Fragrance Building, "There is a kind of waiting for me here!
In terms of realm cultivation, the Cao Family Chamber of Commerce not only hired a lot of high-ranking seniors to provide protection for the caravan, but there were a total of five grandmasters in their own family.
Cao Leng's father, Cao Xing, was sitting in the teahouse near the port of Sanye Island at this time, waiting for Cao Leng to come back from dinner to rest.
It has always been the Cao family that bullies others, and I have never heard of anyone daring to spread wild on the territory of the Cao family in the Eight Immortals Sea! After Cao Leng ran back to the port out of breath, he said that he would add fuel and vinegar to the ins and outs of the future, of course, he did not tell his father about his trip to Zuixianglou, and Cao Xing was angered in a few words, and without saying a word, he came in the direction of Zuixianglou with dozens of evil servants.
Among them, Mu Ningxiang's younger brother, Mu Jieran, has the ability to be heavy in the Tianyang Realm at a young age, and is very valued by Cao Xing, he is proficient in the art of assassination, and when Cao Xing's father and son were talking, he stood outside the door of the teahouse, of course, he could hear it clearly.
His sister caused a big disaster, Mu Jieran didn't know how to make a choice for a while, even if he could kill many of the servants who accompanied him, he himself was definitely not Cao Xing's opponent.
"All right, your sister will be fine, that grandmaster swordsman, if I resist, go and save your sister." As soon as Cao Xing went out, he saw Mu Eran standing outside with a sad brow, so he comforted.
Cao Leng deliberately skipped Mu Ningxiang and threw all the trouble to Lu Haoran, how did Cao Xing know what his son was doing outside, but Mu Jieran knew it very well in his heart.
It must have been Cao Leng who provoked his sister and was rescued by the big swordsman, so Cao Leng was so angry that he wanted to come back for revenge.
Halfway through, he encountered Liu Xiaoyi, who was unknown for unknown reasons, blocked the way, fought with Cao Leng, and used the formation word trick to hide his body, and the two of them were spent in this not spacious street.
Liu Xiaoyi shook the Tianqian sword, and wanted to cut it from behind several times, but he refused to do so, although the other party couldn't see him, his breath kept testing the surroundings.
"How can a swordsman practice this kind of mouse kung fu! It's really embarrassing for a swordsman!" Cao Leng couldn't find the other party, so he wanted to provoke him with words and let him take the initiative.
The quiet drop of a needle in the streets and alleys could be heard clearly, Liu Xiaoyi pointed to the ground with both feet, slowly moved his body, and set the target on Mu Jieran not far away.
This little assassin seemed to know the reason for something, and the drunk man in white, no matter how he sounded, looked like Lu Haoran.
"Hey, little brother, I can save your sister, can you show the way?"
