Water has its own waterway, and drought has its own dry path. If there is no waterway, it will have its own dry path.
Xie Fu went to Luoxian Tower and heard Lu Wuyuan say that Zhang Lingluo was the big boss behind Luoxian Tower, and Luo Chuzhuang, the maid of Luoxian Tower, was one of the Five Mysteries of Xuanzong. Naturally, this place was Zhang Lingluo's base camp.
Compared with old brothels like Qin Tower, Luoxian Tower is a rising star. Xie Fu has never been there. After some inquiries, he found out that Luoxian Tower is located in the center of Shihu Lake on Wumenqiao Street.
The twelfth lunar month of winter is not a good time for outings, but the spacious lake of Shih Lake is full of cruise ships.
Xie Fu really couldn't figure out why there was anything to swim in in this lake in the depth of winter, when everything was bleak and there were no birds on the lake.
When I saw there was a courtyard in the middle of the lake, surrounded by the lake, it was isolated from the world, like a floating city isolated from the world.
Xie Fu smiled and asked me why it was so lively. It turns out that this lake has treasures and attracts people to look forward to.
There is a landmark building in the courtyard, which is a five-story pagoda. Between the blue sky, white clouds and green lake, it looks like a fairy pavilion on the sea of clouds in the sky.
The three characters "Luoxian Tower" suit the occasion.
There were boats specializing in ferrying by the lake, and Xie Fu got on one of them casually.
The boatman was a middle-aged man. His skin was rough and red due to the wind and rain all year round. He took the initiative to ask: "Sir, do you want to go to Luoxian Tower?"
Xie Fu smiled and said, "How do you know?"
The boatman responded: "Whoever comes to this stone lake is not going to Lady Luo in Luoxian Tower."
As he spoke, he pointed towards the lake and saw many cruise boats on the lake. There was a cruise boat not far away, and a romantic young man stood on the bow. He was wearing thin clothes in the winter, and he was fanning himself with a smile on his face.
The lake breeze made the thin shirt flutter, and I have to say that it felt a bit romantic.
However, the young man suddenly sneezed due to the cold, his coolness was gone for a moment, and he immediately ordered his entourage to get a cotton-padded jacket and put it on.
Xie Fu laughed: "It's winter, who are you showing off to?"
The boatman responded: "Of course I will show it to Mrs. Luo."
Xie Fu asked: "Can Madam Luo see this?"
"You can see it."
The boatman pointed to the five-story pagoda and said, "Ms. Luo is on the top of that pagoda, looking at the whole lake."
Xie Fu has seen it a lot. This is the brothel's way of attracting fame, attracting people to flock to it. He smiled lightly and said: "Pretending, grandstanding."
The boatman said: "Since the young master is going to Luo Xian Tower to meet Madam Luo, sir, your flag is here. I can put it up for you."
Xie Fu was confused: "What flag?"
The boatman was curious: "Master, don't you know?"
"I really don't know, boatman, tell me."
"This flag is like a greeting card. Lady Luo can see it from the tower and knows who wants to enter the building and who is a tourist."
Xie Fu was funny: "I'm just visiting a brothel, why do I need this rule?"
The boatman responded with a smile: "Why don't you follow the rules?"
He said pointing to the lake: "Young Master, look, everyone here wants to see Madam Luo. Madam Luo is alone. Who do you think she should meet? Set thresholds and rules, so that you can politely refuse some people. It's like a beauty alone. Show, in the end, only one person is lucky enough to excel in its beauty.”
Xie Fupo said thoughtfully: "Shipman, when you talk, you look like you have read a book."
"Young Master is laughing at me. I am a poor man. I have never read any books. It's just that in this land of romance, I often hear the words of those talented people that are well-written and sophisticated."
Xie Fu asked: "How to obtain this flag?"
"I don't know either. It seems to come from Luoxian Tower and needs to be purchased with silver."
Xie Fu laughed: "It's really a good way to get money. It's much easier than meeting guests and drinking with them."
"That's all, I don't need any flags. Boatman, you can just sail the boat directly to Luoxian Tower."
The boatman smiled and said, "Sir, you may not be able to enter Luoxian Tower even if you have a flag, but you definitely won't be able to enter without a flag."
"Just listen to my instructions."
"Since the young master does not believe in evil, I will sail the ship closer. Then the young master will naturally give up."
There are many young gentlemen on this stone lake who are boating. While they are pretending to be romantic, they secretly look at the five-story tower from time to time, apparently trying to attract Luo Chuzhuang's attention.
What a Luo Chuzhuang, this grand gathering of fans can only be compared to that of Madam Lan Ning, but Madam Lan Ning has already retired.
It is in line with the saying - there are beauties in every generation, and the waves in front push back the waves behind.
Among the ships, in addition to the pleasure boats used by the young masters and talented men, there were also some boats used by wealthy ladies.
These boats have drooping curtains, like the curtains of a young lady's boudoir. From time to time, a corner of the curtains is gently lifted, and a pair of pretty eyes are revealed.
Xie Fu was impressed when he saw it: "You look at the white clouds on the boat, and I look at you on the boat. These young men really don't understand what Yan Ruyu is."
He ignored the girl from his girlfriend's house, but his heart was focused on a illusory brothel girl.
The boat approached Luoxian Tower, and the boatman stopped the boat. He saw colorful flags planted on the water outside Luoxian Tower, forming a circle around the water outside Luoxian Tower. A lantern was hung above the colorful flags, and each colorful flag The three characters of "Luoxian Tower" are written on the vertical panels.
The boatman said: "We can't go any further, otherwise the boat will capsize."
Although there is nothing on the lake, Xie Fu can still see the mystery from the waves blowing across the lake from the north wind. There should be obstacles at the bottom of the water, and once the ship gets close, it will hit the bottom.
At this time, a cruise ship approached, with a handsome young man standing on the bow. The boatmen at the stern knew each other and shouted loudly: "Old Qian, you don't have a flag on the ship, why are you sailing so close?"
"Lao Quan, this young man is here for the first time and is not familiar with the rules yet. I will take him to join in the fun."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Who said I would come to join in the fun? I have to see Mrs. Luo today."
The young master on the other boat was unhappy after hearing this and sneered: "You are underestimating your ability. You have no flag. If I could see Mrs. Luo today, I would make a broom and sweep it from Shantang Street to the end of Shantang Street." "
He has an out-and-out Yue accent, but he has come from afar to be famous.
Xie Fu had no time to make a bet with this man, and for the sake of the young master's happiness in the rest of his life, he shouted loudly: "Is Miss Zhang Er here?"
Zhang Lingluo once said that all she had to do was come to Luoxian Tower to report her name. This was Xuanzong's territory. Xie Fu also wanted to have some conflicts with Xuanzong, so it would be best to have Zhang Lingluo as a stepping stone.
The young man looked puzzled, but the two boatmen looked stern.
"Boatman, bring the boat closer to the shore."
The boatman apologized and said, "Sir, Luo Xian Tower has not agreed, so I don't dare to break the rules. You have seen it, and have joined in the fun. So be it, I will sail the boat back now."
After saying that, he turned the boat around and went back to the lake.
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Shipman, steer the ship well."
The boatman was puzzled, but suddenly the boat moved forward uncontrollably. He was shocked. He was able to control objects out of thin air. This man was an extremely skilled man.
The boatman immediately used the force of the boat, but the boat was still pushed forward by the waves. He was even more shocked that his strength could not withstand the opponent's power to control objects out of thin air.
Seeing that the ship was about to hit an obstacle hidden under the water, the sound of iron ropes rustling from the bottom of the water was heard, as if a mechanism was turned on, and a dark wave appeared with the colorful flag as a line.
The ship passed through the range of colorful flags but did not hit the bottom.
