Chapter 9 Going out to find someone
"Shall we go to rescue Miss Xie Kite now?" Tang Rou held the sword box and looked at Qi Xuan, with countless stars shining in her eyes.
Qi Xuan glanced at the ready-to-wear shop not far away.
"Follow me. ”
Tang Rou looked at herself in men's clothes and felt that it was very necessary to explain it well.
"That...... Qi Gongzi, little brother is just a title, not gender, you really don't need to dress me up as a man. ”
The corners of Qi Xuan's mouth raised slightly, walked past Tang Rou, and threw her a red sign.
Tang Rou took the sign and looked at it, the brand is made of high-quality cedar, the workmanship is very fine, the back of the brand is engraved with a blooming begonia flower, and the front is engraved with the word "Xin".
"What a beautiful wooden sign," Tang Rou caught up with Qi Xuan and asked, "What are you doing with this sign for me?"
"It's here. ”
Qi Xuan stopped and looked ahead.
Tang Rou turned her head suspiciously and looked at Qi Xuan's line of sight, a strange fragrance came to her nose, because the fragrance was too strong, Tang Rou couldn't help but sneeze.
Qi Xuan looked up at the sky, it was almost dusk at this time.
"Exactly. ”
With that, he walked straight in.
"It's ......"
Tang Rou opened her mouth, not knowing how to describe her mood at this moment.
On both sides of the front, five steps, one floor, ten steps and one pavilion, all of them are palace-like buildings, and the upstairs balconies are standing rows of women with flowers and branches.
"Childe came up to play~"
Hearing such delicate words, Tang Rou couldn't help but shudder.
"It's ...... Red light district!"
Why did this Qi Xuan bring me here? Could it be that he was going to sell me? Isn't it? I wanted to be his younger brother, and I didn't sign a deed of sale, so why did he sell me?
No, we're here to save the kite! The kite was sold to the Qinglou?
......
"Still not keeping up?"
Just when Tang Rou was thinking wildly, Qi Xuan's voice that was very soft but had absolute pressure came into her ears, and Tang Rou's feet involuntarily moved over.
"The ......"
"Let's go. ”
Tang Rou looked at Qi Xuan's back, knowing that before arriving at the destination, the other party didn't plan to explain anything to her, so she had to obediently follow behind.
Tang Rou listened to the sound of soliciting customers from the buildings on both sides, although it was harsh, she also felt very fresh, she raised her head and observed the green buildings on both sides and the people coming and going on the road with a curious face.
Walking to the innermost, Tang Rou saw that there was a building that was different from other buildings, which should be said to be particularly prominent.
While the other green buildings have only two floors, this one is six stories high, and each floor is hung with the most delicate and beautiful lanterns, and they are colorful and varied.
The body of the building is pure vermilion, the roof is glazed tiles, a golden silk nanmu plaque hangs on the second floor, and the dragon flies and the phoenix dance on it is engraved with the three big characters of "Mingxin Building".
What's more, only here, no one is soliciting customers outside, but it is the one where the most guests enter, and some people are still stopped outside and are not allowed to enter.
A strong man who looked five big and three thick seemed to be extremely dissatisfied with being stopped outside, and pointed to the person guarding the door: "Lao Tzu has money! Why don't you let me in!"
"Don't you know the rules of Mingxin Building? The number of people today has reached the specified number, and no one will be allowed to enter unless someone comes out. ”
"The rules? Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, I want to go in, who can stop me!"
The strong man said, and put on a posture to prepare to forcibly break in.
There were a few other people behind him, who sneaked forward, as if they wanted to take advantage of the chaos.
Suddenly, a sword aura flew out of it, followed by a wail.
The strong man covered one eye, and blood flowed from between his fingers.
Seeing this, the others stepped back one after another, obediently waiting in line.
Tang Rou moved to Qi Xuan's side and whispered, "Are we going in?" There are so many people, I don't know when we have to wait. ”
"Something that is given to you and can be used. ”
Qi Xuan said and walked straight to the door, Tang Rou very neatly took out the red sign that Qi Xuan gave her before she showed it to the other party before she reached out to stop Qi Xuan.
The other party only glanced at it and hurriedly bent over to the side, "Childe, please come in." ”
Inside Mingxin Building, the fragrance is overflowing, but it does not make people feel pungent, but there is a light and fresh feeling.
A spiral staircase leads to each floor in the center, and this architectural style really surprised Tang Rou.
Tang Rou kept the sign on, and as soon as the two of them walked in, the old bustard greeted her in person.
"Childe...... please"
"Where is Xie Xiaohao?"
Qi Xuan didn't even look at the other party, just asked lightly.
The old bustard was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Please wait for a while." ”
Qi Xuan saw that Tang Rou was still holding the red sign, "You can put it away." ”
Tang Rou looked through the sign in her hand several times and asked, "You found this sign in Xie Kite's room?" You just asked Xie Xiaohao, what is he doing here, to sell his sister?"
Qi Xuan turned his head and gave Tang Rou a look, Tang Rou immediately raised her hand to cover her mouth, but she couldn't cover her voice, "Okay, okay, I don't speak, don't look at me like that." ”
Not only the voice, Tang Rou felt that even Qi Xuan's eyes seemed to have a sense of déjà vu.
After a while, the bustard came down from the upper floor, and his attitude became more respectful.
"Come with me, both of you. ”
The two followed the bustard down the stairs to the top floor, and the further up they went, the lighter the fragrance became, and there was a feeling of coldness.
"It's here. The bustard stopped, smiled, and turned to go downstairs alone.
There is only one Accord on this sixth floor, and the goal is very clear.
Qi Xuan glanced at Tang Rou, Tang Rou immediately understood, stepped forward and raised his hand to knock on the door.
However, as soon as Tang Rou's hand was raised, the door was opened from the inside, and a woman in gorgeous clothes walked out slowly from inside.
When the people walked out of Tang Rou, they couldn't help but let out an exclamation of "Wow!"
This woman, tall and light, with a melon seed face, clear and bright pupils, curved willow eyebrows, fair and flawless skin, thin lips like rose petals, delicate and dripping, is a beauty like a fairy descending to earth.
"It's so beautiful!"
Tang Rou added a heartfelt compliment after "wow".
"Thank you...... Childe's appreciation. The woman bowed slightly to Tang Rou and smiled lightly.
"Ruoxian, you hear such praise many times a day, don't you?" a voice came from inside the private room, "I don't see who you have responded to. ”
If the immortal is the head of the Mingxin Building, people are as their name, they are as beautiful as fairies, and those who come to Mingxin Building, how many people throw tens of millions of gold just to see the beauty.
Ruoxian nodded lightly at Tang Rou and turned her gaze to Qi Xuan.
"Master Qi, the landlord invites the two of you to enter. ”
"There is labor. ”
Ruoxian turned sideways, and Qi Xuan walked straight in without squinting.
Tang Rou snorted and said in her heart: Such a beautiful person, don't even look at it, is this Qi Xuan a man!
Ruoxian saw that Tang Rou was standing at the door and did not follow Qi Xuan in, thinking that she was embarrassed to enter because of her identity as a sword attendant, so she said to Tang Rou in a loud voice: "You can enter with your son-in-law." ”
"My son-in-law? No...... He's ......"
Tang Rou saw the sword box she was holding in her arms, knowing that she would not be able to explain it for a while, so she smiled awkwardly, "Thank you, then I'll go in." ”
Entering the Accord, Tang Rou saw Xie Kite at a glance, dressed in men's clothes like her.
"Untie the kite! and...... Xie Xiaohao: What's the situation? ”
Xie Yuan stood up and smiled at Tang Rou embarrassedly, "It's Miss Tang Rou, why are you here?"
"Of course I'm looking for you! you don't know ......."
Before Tang Rou finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xie Xiaohao's dry cough.
"Miss Tang Rou, sit down first. ”
Xie Yuan walked up to Tang Rou and pulled Tang Rou to sit with her.
As soon as he entered, he saw the kite at a glance, and he didn't have time to look elsewhere, and after sitting down, Tang Rou realized that the words "this Accord" and the Qinglou really didn't match.
The walls around the house were full of paintings, but they were very strange.
Four low desks are neatly arranged in all four directions of the room, and instead of the four treasures of the study, there are refreshments and wine jugs, and people sit on the soft cushions behind the desks.
Qi Xuan, who came first, sat opposite Xie Xiaohao, pouring and drinking wine leisurely.
There was another man in the room, sitting by the window, when Tang Rou looked over, the man also happened to be looking at her, the difference was that Tang Rou was observing, and the man was scrutinizing, his eyes were slightly sharp.
Tang Rou smiled and nodded at the man, "This is the landlord, right?" At the same time, he pointed to the paintings hanging around, "Your taste is unique enough." ”
"Miss Tang Rou. Xie Yuan tugged at Tang Rou's sleeve, and her eyes motioned for her to stop talking.
Tang Rou saw that the landlord's eyes looked at her from sharp to questioning.
At the same time, Tang Rou also felt a murderous aura coming from close at hand.
"Come here. ”
Qi Xuan hurried to speak before the landlord spoke.
Tang Rou thought that Qi Xuan was afraid that she would be too crowded to reconcile the two brothers and sisters sitting together, so she moved out and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's not crowded." ”
"Who you are now, don't you know?"
Qi Xuan said and stopped his gaze on the sword box that Tang Rou was holding in his arms.
Tang Rou suddenly realized, stood up and nodded while saying, "Yes, yes, yes, I am your little brother now." ”
With that, he walked behind Qi Xuan and sat down on the spot.
Xie Yuan and Xie Xiaohao looked at each other, they had known Qi Xuan for a long time, so they naturally knew Qi Xuan's temper, and they were more shocked than confused about when Tang Rou became Qi Xuan's "little brother".
The owner of Mingxin Building, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at this master and servant speechlessly, what he originally wanted to say was interrupted by Qi Xuan, and at this time he could only smile faintly: "Qi Xuan's son is really rumored to be better than meeting, I used to hear Xiaohao mention you, but now I finally see it." ”
"Fortunately. ”
Qi Xuan raised his hand and tapped lightly on the corner of the table.
Tang Rou understood, put down the sword box in his hand, stepped forward to fill the wine glass in front of Qi Xuan, and then obediently returned to his original position and sat down.
