Xu Huaigu has been in Qiyin for three days. The Zixia Sect Taoist Association originally opened in midsummer, and it took more than two months to complete the several rounds of competitions.
So now it’s almost the autumn season, and only a few tails of Qiyin’s summer flowers are left.
Bai Xiaoyu took Xu Huaigu and Jiang Chengcuo, who were here for the first time, to play in the streets and alleys of Qiyin for several days. They saw all the flowers in Qiyin and drank scented tea and flower wine.
It's just that this flower wine is not that flower wine. Instead, various flowers are put into the wine, and then brewed using the secret method of the fairy family. It has a sweet and mellow taste and an endless aftertaste.
However, the pollen smell of the flower wine was too strong, and Xu Huaigu didn't like it very much. Jiang Chengcuo liked it very much, and said he would bring a few jars with him to drink it in Zhongtu.
The characteristics of Qiyin are not only flowers, but also the charming woman holding a flower umbrella with a smile.
Speaking of which, it is another kind of beautiful scenery of looking for flowers and asking for willows. In the past few days, Jiang Chengcuo had long noticed the various brothels that opened in secluded alleys. He felt itchy in his heart, but because Bai Xiaoyu was around, he didn't dare to take a second look.
But his patience was limited after all. He had already become lustful, so he secretly made a note of a hotel that looked quite luxurious.
"Drunken Flower Garden", prepare to go there later. On this day, he deliberately found an excuse not to go out during the day and stayed in the yard with Bai Xiaoyu and Xu Huaigu.
It wasn't until the evening that he quietly sneaked into Xu Huaigu's room and asked him with a wicked smile: "Brother Xu, you have nothing to do at night. Shall we go drink wine?" Xu Huaigu was practicing swordsmanship in the room. When Jiang Cheng heard Wrong said he was going to drink flower wine, and immediately frowned and said: "Brother Jiang, what's so good about that flower wine? The taste is too strong, I really can't drink it. You can go alone, I still want to practice swordsmanship." , I won’t go.” Jiang Chengcuo smiled and leaned into Xu Huaigu’s ear, and whispered softly: “It’s not the flower wine you thought, it’s the flower wine, do you understand?” Xu Huaigu said confused: “It seems like the one I drank last time It's peach blossom wine. Could it be that the flavor has been changed this time? Is it apricot blossom? Pear blossom? Osmanthus blossom?" Jiang Chengcuo felt sad and sighed, stroking his palms: "Brother Xu, are you really confused or are you pretending to be confused? How can I tell you this? The ones with pear blossoms and osmanthus flowers, I'm talking about women." Xu Huaigu suddenly realized, pointed at Jiang Chengcuo, and said in surprise: "So you went to drink that flower wine!" Jiang Chengcuo quickly covered his mouth and looked nervously Looking outside the door, he nodded lightly and said: "Exactly, don't let Senior Sister Bai hear it, otherwise I will be beaten to death by her." Xu Huaigu asked doubtfully: "Aren't you a monk from the Xian family? Why do you still care about these things? A promiscuous woman in the mortal world?" Jiang Chengcuo said, "Brother Xu, you don't know something about this. Naturally, all things in the world are better in the realm of monks. For example, the monks themselves are superior to others, and they are like spiritual weapons and magic weapons. They are not comparable to ordinary swords, but there is only one thing. This woman is more moving than the earthly one. She has the aura of fireworks, do you understand?" Xu Huaigu shook his head, indicating that he did not understand.
Jiang Chengcuo said in a low voice: "Look at Senior Sister Bai, she is so beautiful and beautiful, but she is still alone and no one likes her. It is because she is too arrogant and no one can look down on her, so she lacks the smell of fireworks. "Xu Huaigu said with a smile: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell Sister Bai and let her beat you to death?" Jiang Chengcuo looked stern, slapped his chest, and said solemnly: "What are you talking about, brother Xu? What is the relationship between you and me? , am I still afraid that you will tell me secrets? Then I, Mr. Jiang, am too cautious, right?" Xu Huaigu shook his head with a smile and said, "I won't tell Sister Bai these things, just go and drink with you I won't go to the flower wine. I don't want to go to those places where filth and evil are hidden." Jiang Chengcuo didn't believe it and asked quietly: "Brother Xu has never been there before, so he doesn't dare to go? It's okay, yes I'll take the lead and make sure you drink to your satisfaction." Xu Huaigu still shook his head, unwilling to go.
Jiang Chengcuo rolled his eyes and thought of a good idea. So he deliberately sighed and said seriously: "To tell you the truth, I am actually not that lustful person, but the wine in the brothel is really delicious. Do you know that those famous winemakers are all related to There is a discussion at the brothel. The best wine will be sold there first, and the wine sold to us in the market will be second-class. The two of us will go together. We don’t want girls, just good wine, and have a good drink together. How about it? "Xu Huaigu seemed to make some sense when he heard this, and in the past few days since he came to Qiyin, he drank only the strong-flavored flower wine. He didn't like to drink it, so now when he heard about good wine, he felt a little greedy.
Unable to bear Jiang Chengcuo's persuasion, Xu Huaigu reluctantly agreed: "Okay, then I'll go with you. But we have agreed in advance that we won't order girls' dishes, and we will come back as soon as possible after drinking, and we can't stay overnight." Jiang Chengcuo patted his chest boldly and said: "Absolutely no problem!" In fact, he secretly laughed in his heart: "When you go to that place, no matter how careful you are, if you drink a few glasses of wine and have a beautiful woman to accompany you, is it possible that you can still do it? Like that saint who doesn't have the slightest thought?" Thinking of this, he felt extremely happy, much happier than if he had actually drank the flower wine.
People with addictions in the world seem to be like this. People who love wine persuade others to drink, people who love tea persuade others to drink tea, and people who love books persuade others to read books. They are all very energetic.
For example, Huang Shan and Zuoqiu Xunai persuaded Xu Huaigu to drink. They were the two who taught Xu Huaigu how to drink in the first place. So the two of them were preparing to go out, and when they walked out of the room, they saw Bai Xiaoyu squatting in the corner of the yard, weeding the medicine garden.
She glanced at the two of them and asked, "Where are you going?" Jiang Chengcuo was almost breaking out in a cold sweat, but he still pretended to be calm and said, "Brother Xu and I are going to have some drinks, why don't Senior Sister Bai come with us? Bai Xiaoyu glared at him and said, "I don't drink. You can go on your own." Jiang Chengcuo nodded quickly, pulled Xu Huaigu out of the yard, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Huaigu looked at Jiang Chengcuo's face and said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, you are sweating a lot." Jiang Chengcuo wiped it off quickly and said with an embarrassed smile: "Yes, the weather is a bit hot." Xu Huaigu gave him He saved some face and did not ask any more questions. He walked forward and said, "Since there are brothels in the secular world, is there such a dusty place in the monk world?" Jiang Chengcuo said, "Yes, there is. I once lived in China. I've seen it before, but the fairies in that place are all prostitutes rather than prostitutes, and the customers who come here are not greedy for sex, but really like the fairies' talents. In short, they are far different from this brothel. He stretched out a finger and said to Xu Huaigu: "And that kind of place costs the most money. The entrance fee alone costs this amount." Xu Huaigu asked tentatively: "A small bead?" Jiang Chengcuo He glanced at him and said, "Little beads? That's too shabby. It's a colored bead." Xu Huaigu was startled and said in surprise: "Colored beads? One colored bead is enough to buy a high-quality magic weapon. Come on, who would spend such unjust money to go to a place like that?" Jiang Chengcuo said with emotion: "So that place is not something that monks like us can enter. The people who enter are all gods who are at least the seventh or eighth realm, and they are still secular. The brothel is better, with good quality and low price." The two of them were talking and walking, and soon they arrived at the brothel that Jiang Chengcuo had been thinking about for a long time.
The entrance of "Drunken Flower Garden". This brothel is well-known in Qiyin City. There is a large plaque directly above the door, which states:
There are three words "Drunken Flower Garden" and a couplet next to it.
"Flowers and moonlight are not strange, wine and beauty are the best." Xu Huaigu thought about it carefully, and then he understood what the couplet was referring to. He couldn't help but smile, finding it interesting, and became curious about this brothel.
There was no chaos as he imagined. There was actually order in this brothel. As soon as you walk in, there are rows of pavilions and pavilions.
The gaps between the pavilions were filled with flowers of various colors. Under the special weather in Qiyin, they bloomed extremely brightly and full, exuding the fragrance of flowers, making the atmosphere in the brothel ambiguous.
Jiang Chengcuo saw that he had been to many such places. He led Xu Huaigu to a tall building and walked in.
The first floor of this tall building is the lobby, where many people are already sitting and drinking. There is a stage in the center of the lobby. There is a veiled woman playing the guqin in the middle of the stage. There are various musicians playing string instruments and dancing girls around, all playing and dancing to the sound of the woman in the middle.
Xu Huaigu didn't understand this very well, but he just thought it sounded pretty good at first glance. When a middle-aged woman saw Xu Huaigu and two people coming, she hurriedly came forward to greet them. She smiled and said, "You two are very friendly. Is this your first time here?" Jiang Chengcuo took out a few small coins from his sleeves. Putting the bead money in the palm of the middle-aged woman's hand, she said with a smile: "Don't ask anything else. You know the rules. It's best to come here." When the middle-aged woman saw the bead money, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she quickly smiled flatteringly. : "It turns out that two immortals are here. I'm sorry that I didn't know it, little girl. I couldn't welcome you in advance. Please come upstairs with me." Xu Huaigu glanced at Jiang Chengcuo unhappily and said, "I didn't agree to just drink. No." Would you like a girl?" Jiang Chengcuo explained: "I said we would like the best wine. Where did I mention girls? Brother Xu, please don't accuse me wrongly." Xu Huaigu felt that something was wrong with Jiang Chengcuo's words, but everyone had already come in. It was not easy to go out, so I had to follow the steps of Jiang Chengcuo and the middle-aged woman, go to the top floor, and sit down in a room.
The room was extremely luxuriously decorated, the seats were covered with fine silk and satin, and the incense burned in the corner were also luxurious spices, which made Xu Huaigu feel uncomfortable sitting in it.
Not long after, a young and beautiful woman walked in. Behind her were several maids, carrying two pots of wine and boiling tea, and sat down next to Xu Huaigu and the others.
Jiang Chengcuo looked at the leading woman several times, his eyes full of admiration. This woman's figure and appearance were both excellent and could be said to be flawless.
However, Xu Huaigu only glanced at her and then stopped looking at her. Instead, he stared at Jiang Chengcuo, as if questioning him.
Jiang Chengcuo said quickly: "This woman just warms the wine for us. She has no other intention." Xu Huaigu was still unhappy and said: "It doesn't matter if the wine is cold. You can just drink it warm. I will drink it directly." After that, he took a pot of wine from the maid's plate, raised his head and drank a big gulp.
The woman smiled calmly and said: "This handsome young man is quite generous, but drinking cold wine hurts your stomach. Let me warm a pot for you." She stood up, sat down next to Xu Huaigu, and took the drink from his hand. He took the wine pot, took the boiling tea from a maid's plate, and gently placed the wine pot in the tea.
Seeing Xu Huaigu's reluctant look, she asked him: "This little brother doesn't seem to be satisfied with me. Is there something wrong with me? Or does he dislike me because I'm not beautiful enough?" Xu Huaigu said coldly. : "It's just that I don't like this dirty place." The woman smiled and said, "I'm a monk, so it's normal for me to look down on our female companions. But the wine in our Zuihuayuan is indeed good wine. Please drink some wine, brother. , it's not a wasted trip." Xu Huaigu didn't say anything, and the woman raised her hand again, picked up the warm wine flask, put it in his hand, and gave it to him.
Xu Huaigu took the wine bottle, but at a quick glance he saw a red brand tied around the woman's waist, which looked familiar.
He was a little curious and took a few more looks. After taking a closer look, he was startled. The pattern engraved on the red sign is the blooming flower of the other side!
