After running for a while, Yuan Xiaoman took Gu Qianxu to the famous Xieyue Bridge in Yangcheng, and rented a boat, and Gu Qianxu followed Yuan Xiaoman to the boat.

Yuan Xiaoman sat on the boat and pointed to the Leaning Moon Bridge with a smile, "You see, the bridge that looks like the moon is the Leaning Moon Bridge, because of natural reasons, the bridge has slanted down, but it has not collapsed, it has become a scenery in Yangcheng, every eight days I will come to the Leaning Moon Bridge, watching the moon in the sky come out, now the sky is dark, the moon can be seen faintly." ”

Gu Qianxu smiled and said that the moon would be perfectly exposed sooner or later, and Gu Qianxu then looked at Yuan Xiaoman, "Do you have something on your mind, I think you don't seem to like others calling you a courtesan." ”

"Who wants that title, they want it to be theirs, I don't want it anyway, if you want to dislike me too, I will dislike it, I can bear it very strongly, I won't cry. Yuan Xiaoman said that tears appeared, it was very dark in the night, Yuan Xiaoman didn't wipe it, just pretended to be strong.

Gu Qianxu shook his head, "I won't dislike you, everyone has their own freedom, I don't think you like to be a courtesan in the Qinglou either." ”

Yuan Xiaoman's hot tears flowed, "I was left in Yangcheng by my stepmother......"

Yuan Xiaoman cried bitterly, and Gu Qianxu didn't know what to do for a while, "Don't cry...... You tell me why, maybe I can help you. ”

Yuan Xiaoman wiped his tears, " My home is in Pinglong, my biological father is a member of the criminal department, and my biological mother has passed away, I am a young lady of the Yuan family, two sisters are brought by my stepmother, and a younger brother, my father married my stepmother long after my mother died, my father also loves my younger brother, my stepmother pleases my younger brother, and has always disliked me, but half a year ago, my stepmother took me from Nanchuan Pinglong to Beizheng Yangcheng, left me in Yangcheng and ran away, and quietly sold me to Qinglou, at that time I often starved and froze in winter, but seeing how beautiful I was, I agreed to let me only sell my art and not sell my body, and I also settled down, tried to escape but couldn't escape, couldn't get out of Yangcheng, because there are people in Qinglou. ”

Gu Qianxu asked suspiciously, "Why didn't your father come to you?"

Yuan Xiaoman thought for a while, "I should have been deceived by my stepmother...... I'm sure my father has been asking me about it as well. ”

Gu Qianxu expressed sympathy after hearing this, "You can rest assured, when I find something, I will take you back to Nanchuan Pinglong." ”

Yuan Xiaoman smiled and shook his head, "You don't have to comfort me, I also see that you were bullied by the chapter layer, thinking back to the days when I was hungry and cold, I don't know why I told you this, maybe I held it in my heart for too long, and I said it all when I mentioned it, but I felt much better when I said it." ”

Gu Qianxu patted his chest, pointed to the moon in the sky and said: "Don't worry, I won't say it, I will also make you believe that I will definitely take you out of Yangcheng and send you back to Pinglong smoothly. ”

"Well, I'll trust you. Yuan Xiaoman smiled and leaned his head towards Gu Qianxu and stayed on Gu Qianxu's shoulder.

As soon as Gu Qianxu wanted to break free, Yuan Xiaoman hugged his arm and said: "I have no malice, I just want to borrow your shoulder, because then I can recall when I was a child, I lay on the shoulders of my father and mother and looked at the moon in the sky." ”

Yuan Xiaoman said and quietly shed tears, Gu Qianxu sighed, and accompanied Yuan Xiaoman to look at the moon in the sky.

The bright moon in the sky was completely exposed, the scimitar-shaped moon was as white as jade, the round head was leaning on Gu Qianxu's shoulder, and he was about to fall asleep, and there were more and more people around the Leaning Moon Bridge.

It was already the dead of night, and the boat that Gu Qianxu and Yuan Xiaoman were riding stopped on the shore.

Gu Qianxu saw that Yuan Xiaoman was sleeping soundly, and did not bother, so he came to the shore with Yuan Xiaoman, and Yuan Xiaoman suddenly woke up at this time, and accidentally misunderstood Gu Qianxu.

Gu Qianxu put down Yuan Xiaoman and explained the matter clearly, and Yuan Xiaoman remembered that she accidentally fell asleep next to Gu Qianxu's shoulder.

Yuan Xiaoman hurriedly lowered his head and bent over, "I'm sorry, I accidentally fell asleep, and I was really sorry to delay you a lot of time." ”

Gu Qianxu shook his head and smiled, "It's okay, where do you live, I'll send you back first." ”

Yuan Xiaoman then replied: "I live in the east of Yangcheng and share a house with them. ”

Gu Qianxu nodded, "It just so happens that I also live in the east of Yangcheng, I'll send you back." ”

Yuan Xiaoman shook his head and said no, Gu Qianxu said that he was just on the way, Yuan Xiaoman thought about it and nodded, and said that it troubled Gu Qianxu again.

Gu Qianxu smiled and said that it was okay, and then took Yuan Xiaoman to her house.

The house was neither big nor small, because the owner of the house rented it cheaply at that time, and Yuan Xiaoman and the other five Qinglou women rented it together.

Yuan Xiaoman suddenly found that he didn't have the key with him, and Gu Qianxu knocked on the door of the house, but no one responded.

Yuan Xiaoman pulled Gu Qianxu's clothes, "Don't knock it yet, some of them have entertained guests, and Xiaoshi should also accompany the wine." ”

"But, what should you do then......" Gu Qianxu was still unwilling and continued to knock on the door.

Yuan Xiaoman said with a smile: "It's okay, you keep knocking on the door like this and it affects others, I'll just wait for them here." ”

The cool breeze swished, Gu Qianxu shook his head and said: "The wind is so strong, you will definitely catch a cold, besides, you are waiting here alone, in case you meet any bad people, you will suffer." ”

Yuan Xiaoman shook his head and smiled, "No, it shouldn't be long." ”

Gu Qianxu was still worried about leaving Yuan Xiaoman to wait outside the door of the house alone, so he decided to wait with Yuan Xiaoman.

For an hour or so, there was still no figure, and Yuan Xiaoman squatted down again and hugged himself.

The cool breeze came to his face, Gu Qianxu got up and said: "It's quite cold when the wind blows, why don't you go to the inn I rented, maybe there is a spare room, you can barely stay for one night." ”

Yuan Xiaoman thought about it for a while and agreed, and followed Gu Qianxu to the Dou Tong Inn.

Back at the Dou Tong Inn, Gu Qianxu came to the counter, "Shopkeeper, is there any room available?"

The shopkeeper yawned, "There should be one, I'll take a look." ”

The shopkeeper went to check the room, and Gu Qianxu returned to the room with Yuan Xiaoman.

Gu Qianxu pushed open the door, "Please come in, this place is more ordinary, they are all my friends, and they came to Yangcheng with me." ”

Yuan Xiaoman was a little shy, hesitated for a while, and finally came to the room.

Qin Yi and the others looked at Yuan Xiaoman in surprise.

Yuan Xiaoman bent down to introduce himself: "Hello, I'm Yuan Xiaoman." ”

Qin Yi nodded hurriedly, "Hello......"

Gu Qianxu then asked Yuan Xiaoman to sit casually, the old beggar was also busy serving tea and pouring water, Yuan Xiaoman saw that the old beggar was old, and hurriedly said no.

Gu Qianxu then asked Qin Yi, "Did you get Xing Brown Spring?"

Qin Yi nodded and said: "Of course I got it, I put it under the bed, Miss Liu is good, she gave a lot of medicinal materials for free, so I waited in Dingpu for a few hours, and because there were some thieves who stole the tower, I stored the rest in Miss Liu." ”

After Gu Qianxu finished speaking, he lay under the bed, and took out the potpourri and poisonous seven mushrooms he brought back, and then took out Tie Shanmu and Xing Brown Chun.

After Gu Qianxu said to himself, he came out of the floating auspicious ding, only to hear a sound, and a small ding appeared on the table.

Yuan Xiaoman rushed over when he heard the voice, "Are you a Dan Master?" ”

Gu Qianxu nodded and said, "I only succeeded once, I don't know if I can succeed again this time." ”

Yuan Xiaoman smiled, "Then the few pindans you refined." ”

Gu Qianxu opened his mouth and replied: "Sanpindan, I have forgotten what the medicinal effect is. ”

No wonder you are not afraid of the Zhang family, it turns out that you are a Dan master at a young age, as long as you can become a Dan master, many families will compete for it, maybe the Zhang family will have to come to please you, and then the Zhang family will have to look at your face. Yuan Xiaoman covered his mouth and smiled after speaking.

Gu Qianxu shook his head and said, "I'm not a qualified Dan Master yet, but if the Zhang family is arrogant and unreasonable to make trouble, we won't be afraid." ”

Qin Yi had been lying on the bed and pretending to sleep, and when he heard that the Zhang family was arrogant and came to make trouble, Qin Yi got up suddenly, "What Zhang family, who dares to come and make trouble unreasonably, so that his father and mother can't recognize him." ”

Gu Qianxu thought back and said: "The last time I went to the Qinglou, the chapter layer was slapped by Tao Ji in the chest, and then the chapter layer hated us, not long before I went out, I was unlucky to meet the chapter layer, and then Xiaoman helped me, the chapter layer and his kneel on the ground to admit their mistakes, and finally I beat the chapter layer away, it is estimated that he will inquire about our news next, which may be unfavorable to us." ”

"Just the one who gave us twenty golden tickets before?I heard that Yuan Xiaoman is a famous courtesan in the Qinglou......" Qin Yi said and remembered something, and turned his head to look at Yuan Xiaoman.

Yuan Xiaoman shook his head and explained: "I am Yuan Xiaoman, the courtesan of the Qinglou...... But I don't sell my body. ”

Gu Qianxu opened his mouth and said: "Xiaoman is also very pitiful, she didn't go to Qinglou to be a courtesan, she lives in Pinglong, she is the daughter of a member of the criminal department, her stepmother took her to Yangcheng and sold her to Qinglou, so I decided to wait until I found something, I took Xiaoman back to Pinglong, and by the way, I met with Little Strawberry and them." ”

Qin Yi smiled and nodded, "I see, I don't mean anything else, I don't discriminate against anyone." ”

Qin Yi then looked at Gu Qianxu, "How do you take her out of Yangcheng, the woman in the Qinglou can't take her away at will, she has to redeem herself to return her freedom." ”

Gu Qianxu then asked, "How much does it cost to redeem yourself." ”

Qin Yi thought for a while and said: "The famous courtesans in the Qinglou are very sought-after, not to mention that the art is not sold out, it is quite precious, I have brought it in the Qinglou, according to my guess, at least about three hundred golden tickets, although it is a little expensive, but if you redeem your body, you can have freedom, and it is natural to be expensive." ”

Yuan Xiaoman smiled and shook his head, "You need four hundred and thirty golden tickets, and you only have hardware tickets every month, and it is very difficult to earn money for redemption, so I tried to escape, but I was caught, and if I want to be ransomed, then I have to tie up a large amount of money, otherwise I will always stay in the Qinglou until I am abandoned." ”

Gu Qianxu looked at Yuan Xiaoman with a smile, "It'll be fine, I will definitely be able to take you out of Yangcheng, send you back to Pinglong, expose your stepmother, and you will be able to reunite with your family." ”

Varago sat on the bed and listened carefully, thinking about what method Gu Qianxu used to bring Yuan Xiaoman back, and couldn't figure out why Gu Qianxu would bring back the famous courtesan in the Qinglou, even if he took the money, it was unlikely, after all, the Spring Festival was worth a thousand gold, and many rich people did not hesitate to spend a lot of money directly in order to stay with the famous courtesan for a short time, and Gu Qianxu is not like the kind of greedy and lustful person who goes to the Qinglou to enjoy himself if he has money.

The shopkeeper opened the door of the room where Gu Qianxu and the others were, "There is no vacant room." ”

After the shopkeeper finished yawning and left, Yuan Xiaoman was ready to say goodbye to Gu Qianxu with a smile, and planned to go back alone, it was dark and windy, Gu Qianxu was not very worried that Yuan Xiaoman would go back alone, so he vacated the bed to let Yuan Xiaoman rest first, Gu Qianxu said that he would wait until he finished refining Dan and then personally sent Yuan Xiaoman back to the house.
