Gong Tower is not far from the inn where Wei Zixian lives.
Therefore, the three of them didn't go out until six o'clock in the morning, and by then it was completely dark.
However, the bustle in Wujiang City was not much less than during the day. Like the Song Dynasty, the Chen Dynasty also had no curfew. Restaurants and teahouses were still open at night, with lights as bright as day and the sound of strings and bamboo strings playing endlessly.
The vendors who hawked along the street during the day may have gone home, but in the night market, new vendors have set up lampshades and put out fruit, wild food and other general merchandise for sale. Clothing stores and jewelry shops have hung lanterns outside their doors to attract night tourists. Guests come in and out.
As for the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion by the Jinming River, it is as if it has entered the golden hour of the evening, with the orioles and swallows upstairs laughing and dancing.
If he had enough money in his pocket, he could rent a boat and go boating on the river with three or five beauties. Lu Jing felt that it was not impossible to give up wifi, Coke and those unfinished novels and comics.
Xia Huai was dazzled by what he saw and pulled Lu Jing along to ask questions.
Lu Jing basically answered every question, until Xia Huai pointed to the red gardenia lantern in front of a restaurant and asked Lu Jing enthusiastically, "This lantern is very beautiful. I saw it hanging in several restaurants along the way. What does it mean?"
As a local, Lu Jing was finally speechless this time, and at the same time, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.
On the other hand, Wei Zixian still looked like he wouldn't leave anyone behind, and said calmly in his cold voice, "The restaurant where this lamp is hung means that prostitutes can be recruited inside."
"…………"
The girl blushed and became quite quiet immediately.
Fortunately, the three of them also walked to Gong Lou at this time.
Tonight's Gong Tower is a special place for martial arts people. At this moment, almost all the people standing in front of the door are martial arts people dressed in different styles.
It is said that Xie Liancheng spent a lot of money to book Gong Lou for this night banquet, but Lu Jing felt that he spent the money a bit unfairly.
Because even if he doesn't reserve the place, if so many people with sharp swords and fierce faces stop here, most of the other guests will automatically take a detour.
However, when these guys who looked like menace to ordinary people saw Wei Zixian, they couldn't help but tuck their tails between their legs, and the crowd automatically made way for the three of them to pass.
Wei Zixian was not polite and walked straight through the crowd to the front of the restaurant.
There were two people waiting under Huanmen, but they were not the original waiters in the store, but the two heads of the Qingzhu Gang.
Lu Jing recognized them, but because they were not at the same pier, the two had no impression of Lu Jing, an ordinary porter in the gang.
Neither of them knew Wei Zixian at their level, but they had probably been told before that the most arrogant person they saw was the senior brother from Xijian Pavilion, so one of them raised his hands and said respectfully, "But Young Master Wei?"
Wei Zixian looked at him coldly. After a moment, he didn't answer his question but instead asked, "What is Xie Liancheng thinking? Are you embarrassing yourself by leaving two unworthy idiots outside the door?"
When the two little heads heard this, their expressions suddenly became extremely ugly.
Although their martial arts are not very good, on weekdays when they are with porters and stickmen, they are basically like earth emperors at the dock. They are praised and flattered by others. How can I have ever been so angry? I just feel that from the soul to the body They were all insulted.
However, there was no other way but to stand there and suffer the two of them.
The two sides are too far apart in terms of status and martial arts. No matter whether they use their hands or words, in the end, they will just give the other party another chance to continue to insult them, and if not, their lives may be in danger.
So now the two of them can only knock out their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs, especially the one who is currently handing over the hand, who does not even dare to change his posture, and continues, "We would like to invite Shaoxia Wei and your two friends..."
As a result, before Wei Zixian could finish speaking, he had already passed by him, as if he was dealing with a noisy summer cicada, but he had no interest in cursing anymore.
Lu Jing secretly gave a thumbs up in his heart.
Look, what is a top mt! This one is driven by hatred, but that one is as steady as an old dog.
Lu Jing was completely relieved at this moment. He was very sure that as long as he stood with Wei Zixian, Wei Zixian would not die and no attack from the other side would fall on him.
Because even from the perspective of his teammates, the senior brother of Xijian Pavilion is in trouble. If Lu Jing has his own halo of thorns, then Wei Zixian has his own aura of ridicule. This guy will not change his profession to a paladin. What a shame.
Speaking of which, although Lu Jing has stayed in Wujiang City for so long, this is the first time he has entered this restaurant, which is known as the first floor of Wujiang. Before, he only watched from a distance outside.
According to the standards of the previous life, if every city chooses a landmark building, then Gong Tower will definitely be the landmark of Wujiang City.
Not to mention the cornices and flower trellises outside, just talking about the height of the three-story building, there is no building in the city that can surpass it.
Don't underestimate the third floor at this time. Lu Jing thought it was quite funny when he first heard about it, but when he actually stood down there, there was only one sentence left in his head, is this the third floor? are you kidding me.
The main reason is that the height of each floor is a bit too astonishing. It is almost equivalent to the three floors of an apartment building in the previous life. The total height is nine floors. In this era, it is indeed outstanding.
Not to mention that Gong Tower is still a complex of buildings, with five floors facing each other, each with a flying bridge and sills, connecting light and dark. Strictly speaking, what the Qingzhu Gang hired tonight is only one of the side buildings.
Lu Jing and the others walked through a straight main corridor led by a small head.
Under the main corridor is a goldfish pond with all kinds of koi in it. I don’t know if you have noticed that something is going to happen here tonight, but those koi seem to be unusually quiet. They are all hiding under the wooden bridge, leaving only the sparkling water. Reflections on the heads of the three people.
Xia Huai was a little nervous, but fortunately after walking for a while, the noise in the ears of the three people started again, but the people in the world who had arrived earlier had already taken their seats and began to yell for Xie Liancheng to come out.
"The seats for the three of you are on the top floor." The little head who led the way had long been frightened by Wei Zixian. He had already made up his mind not to provoke this god of plague, but when Wei Zixian stopped again, he had to speak out. He reminded helplessly.
Wei Zixian said, "It's not necessary. There won't be that many people here tonight. Because I have already told people below the second-rate level not to come to the banquet, so one floor is enough."
After saying that, he walked directly towards the table in the middle of the hall. The people who were sitting at the table changed their expressions when they saw it. As a result, except for a man who looked like a painter, a woman who looked like the boss's wife and a woman who was concentrating on dealing with the situation in front of them, The young man from Putao and the others all stood up and gave up their seats and sat at the table next to him.
