Chapter 196 Two fruit baskets, no more than 2

Chapter 196 Two fruit baskets, no one over
At dusk, Su Dingan wandered in Heyang City, accompanied by Zeng Shushu and Lin Jingyu.

Lu Xueqi didn't want to go out, but Qi Hao still had a mission to complete, which was to exchange information with the Qingyun Sect members stationed in Heyang City.

There are crowds of people on both sides of the street. Since it is located near Qingyun Gate, the nightlife here is quite rich. After all, there is no need to worry about public security issues.

"Junior Brother Su."

"how."

"Looking at Junior Brother Su's appearance, he doesn't seem surprised by the world."

"I was born a beggar. I ran away from Heyang City. Don't you know?"

“That, I really don’t know.”

Zeng Shushu, wearing a long robe, held a paper fan in one hand and shook his head, looking a bit like a pedantic scholar. However, his temperament was more extraordinary. In the original novel, he was not very conspicuous, but he was very knowledgeable. It was said that he even entered the Taiqing realm in the end, but I didn't know whether it was true or not.

"I heard Xiaofan say that."

On the side, Lin Jingyu spoke up. After coming out to relax, Lin Jingyu's hostility was obviously much less.

"Are your former enemies still around?"

"Maybe, he's gone."

Su Dingan said this with a smile, but inexplicably, Lin Jingyu and Zeng Shushu both felt a chill. It was obvious that the junior brother in front of them was not as easy to get along with as he seemed.

"So, Brother Zeng, where are you taking us?"

"Hey, what a good place."

Zeng Shushu's expression immediately became somewhat obscene.

A small building in the world of mortals.

Standing in front of the building, Su Dingan looked at Zeng Shushu with a strange expression.

"Brother, aren't you afraid that your father will beat you to death?"

"Hey, Junior Brother, that's wrong."

Zeng Shushu quickly waved his hands.

"This is not a dirty place. This is a prostitute's house. They only sell art, not their bodies. Of course, if you make eye contact with a prostitute inside, you can redeem her and take her as your concubine."

"Oh"

Su Dingan smiled and nodded, low EQ, hooking up with rich men, high EQ, teahouse.

"Come on, I'm treating you today, my dear brothers, please come in, please come in."

"Dingan, we"

Although Lin Jingyu was born in a farming family, during the five years in Qingyun Sect, in addition to learning Taoist techniques, he also received some common sense teaching. After all, Taoist Cangsong was still very strong-willed, unlike Tian Buyi, who was really a pushover and didn't care about anything.

Of course, Lin Jingyu didn’t know everything.

"Brother, how can we refuse such a kind offer, and..."

Su Dingan pointed to the plaque.

"In this small building of the mortal world, we cultivators emphasize leaving the world. However, Jingyu, if you have never entered the world, how can you talk about leaving the world?"

"Ah this."

Lin Jingyu was stunned and wanted to refute, but found that he could not refute at all. Zeng Shushu beside him was even more surprised. However, thinking of the indifferent look of Junior Brother Su along the way, it seemed that the beggar’s previous identity was not simple.
"How can one talk about leaving the world when one has never entered it?"

In the small building in the world, a man watched this scene quietly, feeling a sense of emotion.

"Have they all been identified?"

"Return to the sect master."

Behind the man, a man bowed his hands respectfully. It was surprising that the man had such fair hands, and on the middle finger of his right hand, he wore a ring of simple style.

"It's been checked out."

The handsome guy is called Lin Jingyu, from Cao Miao Village. The guy next to him is called Su Dingan, also from Cao Miao Village. However, the clues about him end here and no one knows where he came from.

"Five years ago, there was a fight in Cao Miao Village between old monk Pu Zhi and a mysterious person. Afterwards, the whole village was killed, and only the two of them survived. After the Qingyun Sect found out, they accepted the two as their disciples. Lin Jingyu is a rare talent. In five years, he has reached the sixth level of Taiji Xuanqing Dao. However, Su Dingan is even more talented."

As he spoke, the man with the ring on his hand repeated the news about Su Dingan.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, the man couldn't help but frown slightly, and then burst into laughter.

"When he gathers, he is like a diamond body, and when he disperses, he can control magic weapons at will. Tian Buyi is also interesting. It's a blessing for him to catch a dead mouse."

Having said that, the man stopped talking, but his mind was constantly thinking about everything related to Cao Miao Village. As the leader of the Ghost King Sect and the hidden leader of the four major sects of the Demon Cult, he could naturally clearly perceive the disharmony here. However, after all, the information was too little, and he could not make an exact inference.

"So, Master, are we going to do it here?"

"We can kidnap him, but it's hard to make him return. You know that our Demon Sect seems to have recovered, but in fact, it's mostly useless. I sense that there may be some inside information in Lin Jingyu's case, and maybe we can use it. Don't worry, let Shanshan go to receive them."

"Yes, Sect Master."

"Give me two fruit baskets. No fruit baskets for those over 18."

In a private room, Zeng Shushu was familiar with the place.

"Brother Zeng, you don't want the eighteenth one."

On the side, Lin Jingyu asked curiously.

"Ah, ahem, I mean, the prices of fruit baskets here vary, so I said I want one that costs less than eighteen cents."

"oh oh."

A moment later, a group of beautiful women came with fruit baskets, drinks, and food in front of the three people. Someone also carried a guqin and placed it in the spacious private room. Finally, a woman in white stood in the light and looked at them calmly.

At this moment, Zeng Shushu and Lin Jingyu both held their breath instinctively.

What kind of woman is this?

Her long hair was draped over her shoulders, like moonlight. Her skin was fair. As for her facial features, neither Zeng Shushu nor Lin Jingyu could find an adjective to describe them. They just felt that they were suitable.

Yes, it is suitable.

One point more, one point less, it doesn't matter, women just look like this, if women don't look like this, then it must be the problem of other women.
Especially those eyes, one look at them seems to see into their hearts.
"My humble self, Shanshan, greets the three great immortals."

"Shanshan."

Zeng Shushu rubbed his nose.

"I haven't been here for a few years. I never thought that there would be a woman like you in this little building. It's really a pity. I should go down the mountain more often."

"You are joking, Immortal. How can I be worthy of meeting that female Immortal?"

Suddenly, the woman stopped talking and looked straight at Su Dingan with her eyes.

"Little Second Brother?"

"Eh?" Su Dingan was also stunned. He hadn't heard this name for a long time.

"You are."

Su Dingan sat up straight and looked at the woman in front of him for a long time, and a little bit of memories came out from the depths of his mind.
That was five or six years ago, maybe even earlier.
At that time, he was still making a living in Heyang City. One day, he met a pair of people who called themselves brother and sister. The brother looked like a consumptive patient. He gave them some food and they talked to each other. It turned out that the brother and sister seemed to be looking for a prescription to cure the disease. He said, why not go to Heyang City to try their luck.

Unexpectedly, the brother didn't want to go and said that his disease could not be cured by ordinary people.

Then he said, however, it cannot be cured. Taking some herbs can relieve the pain, which is better than suffering all the time, isn't it?
The brother was persuaded to let the girl take him to the city.
"Ha, what a coincidence. How is your brother?"

"Haha, I still have to thank Xiao Er brother for his advice."

The girl stood up and bowed to Su Dingan.

"My elder brother has always been stubborn. I could not persuade him, but you, my second brother, made him speechless. He finally agreed to go to the city with me. As a result, he really met a famous doctor in the city. Now, although the root cause of the disease has not been cured, his life is no longer in danger."

"That's good. Also, you weren't forced to come here."

Su Dingan asked again. In this era, brothels and the like were people's inherent perceptions. He didn't want to care and was too lazy to care. But since it was someone he had only met once, he didn't mind helping out.

"no no."

The girl waved her hands quickly.

"The boss here is a very kind person. He never forces us to do anything we don't want to do. If a customer is being rude, he will help us. I am counting on the wages here to pay for my brother's medical treatment."

"That's good"

In the room, the sound of piano is melodious.

A girl named Shanshan plucked the strings of a musical instrument and hummed a tune. The sound was like resentment, longing, crying and complaining. The lingering sound was endless.
"I see."

On the side, Su Dingan told the story again, and Zeng Shushu couldn't help but sigh.

It's no wonder that the girl would thank Junior Brother Su. His words changed the fate of both of them, especially when they met such a boss. Otherwise, a woman with such a look would probably not be able to survive in this world.
The song ended, and the lingering sound lingered.

Both Zeng Shushu and Lin Jingyu seemed to be immersed in some kind of illusion.
Then, Su Dingan saw Shanshan stood up, came to the three people, and knelt in front of them.

While looking at Su Dingan with gratitude, he seemed a little entangled.
Finally, he spoke.

"Lin Shangxian"

"Girl, what are your orders?"

"Would you please tell me about Caomiao Village?"

"Cao Miao Village?"

Su Dingan also looked fascinated, but in fact he was just using his acting skills to the extreme, watching everything as if from a third-person perspective.

It was obvious that the woman in front of him, Shanshan, was not ordinary. The sound of the piano just now was actually some kind of illusion. Even Zeng Shushu, who was at the seventh level of Yuqing, had no ability to resist.
"But why is she interested in the affairs of Caomiao Village?"

In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Su Dingan did not break the silence, but played along, watching Lin Jingyu tell him everything he knew about Cao Miao Village, including, of course, some information he had learned from Taoist Master Daoxuan, such as the information about the Bloodthirsty Pearl.
"Little Second Brother, have you been doing well these past few years?"

"pretty good."

Su Dingan imitated Lin Jingyu's tone and answered.

"What about you? Have you ever been coerced?"

"No."

Shanshan was slightly stunned, and tears welled up in her eyes.

She and her brother, the six-tailed fox, had been wandering in the human world for hundreds of years. They never thought that they were settled down because of the words of the humans they had originally rejected. And this man, after so much time had passed, was still concerned about her safety, and there was not a trace of love between men and women in his tone, even after being bewitched by her three-tailed fox.

"Shanshan is doing well."

"That's good"

"Little Second Brother, do you know anything about Caomiao Village?"

"Ah."

"Can you tell Shanshan about it?"

"nature."
-
"metropolitan."

Deep inside the Hongchen building, Shanshan spoke respectfully to the man in front of her.

Even though he saved her brother's life and treated her very well, she couldn't help but feel a little scared every time she saw her.

"These are the information I compiled about Cao Miao Village. I asked both of them, and nothing was left out."

"Um"

The Ghost King, who was in charge of the sect, took the paper and read it quietly. After a moment, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

What did he see?
Bloodthirsty Pearl.
The bloodthirsty bead was actually in the old monk's hands, and it was suspected that someone from the Qingyun Sect had taken action. However, the Qingyun Sect flatly denied it, and their reasons were very sufficient. If it was the Qingyun Sect that took action, the two young men would not still be alive.

However, Wanrenwang couldn't help but slightly raise the corner of his mouth.

There might be some doubts about leaving a person alive, but the person who used the thunder method must be from Qingyun Sect, and he knew that person.
"interesting."

With a casual shake of the hand, the paper in the hand turned into ashes, and thousands of people turned their hands behind their backs.

"How's your brother doing?"

"Thanks to the Sect Master's help, my brother's injuries in recent years have stabilized. However, although you used your great magical power to remove the Nine Cold Ice Thorns in my brother's body, unfortunately, my brother's thousand years of cultivation are almost gone, and it will take a long time for him to recover."

"Just stay here."

Hearing this, Wanren nodded, and suddenly, he spoke again.

"Remember, although you and Su Dingan are old acquaintances, you must not get involved in this dispute between good and evil. Only in this way can you two brothers and sisters stay safe."

"Yes"

Shanshan's body trembled. It was obvious that someone else must have been monitoring the private room at that time.
"Go down."

"metropolitan."

Not long after, the man wearing the ring reappeared quietly.

"Blue Dragon."

Tens of thousands of people turned around, walked to the window, and looked at the night view outside.

"Let's put aside what's going on here and come with me to the Ten Thousand Bat Cave."

"Are you worried about the young lady's safety?"

"Biyao has Youruo, so I'm not worried."

Everyone shook their heads.

"It's Lin Jingyu. I need you to do something. At the same time, I also want to verify something. If everything goes as I expected, maybe we can involve this child in my demon sect camp."

"Just at the command of the lord."
