Caiyue Tower.
The largest brothel in Yanjiao City, it is the favorite gathering place for the literati in the city.
There is a distinction between brothels and prostitutes in this world. Prostitutes are simple, direct, and dedicated to selling women. Most of them are small in scale and located in hidden locations. For example, the spider brothel that Chu Liang destroyed last time was located in an inconspicuous little place outside the city.
Brothels are more of a show business, larger in scale, and more social in nature. Normally, the nice girls there are just there to drink and watch the performances.
Of course, if you insist on making some other requests, it's not impossible as long as the good girl agrees.
It's just that it's difficult to get hold of the popular gentry. Even if you spend a lot of money, you can only get some opportunities to talk and have dinner. It is not that easy to communicate in a profound and simple way.
Yan Xiaohu has recently been pursuing a popular court lady in Caiyue Tower, a girl named Zoey.
These were all told to Chu Liang by the concierge of the Yan family. The uncle was a warm-hearted man. After Chu Liang asked a few polite questions, he told everything he knew.
As for the fact that Chu Liang politely gave him two taels of silver first, there is no need to mention it.
It was getting dark at this time.
When Chu Liang arrived at Caiyue Tower, he was already singing and dancing. On the stage in the hall on the first floor, several women in soft gauze were dancing gracefully to the accompaniment of musicians.
The guests in the audience sat at tables of three or five, eating and listening to music accompanied by good girls. The second floor is a private seating area, with bead curtains covering the separate compartments. The third floor is a private room, a place where only generous or shameless owners go.
There is no doubt that Yan Xiaohu is generous and generous without being shy.
So as soon as Chu Liang entered the door, he walked up the stairs.
Immediately, an old lady waving a fan came up to her, her eyes shining, "Oh, this young man looks strange at first sight. Why, do you want to go upstairs and call a girl?"
"Hello, I'm looking for someone." Chu Liang said, "Is Mr. Yan Xiaohu and Mr. Yan up there?"
"Oh, he's a friend of Master Yan. Just wait, I'll ask someone to take you there." The madam was easy to talk to.
After all, Chu Liang is handsome and gentle, and he looks like a gentleman at first glance. It seems impossible that he is here to cause trouble.
She waved a boy over and asked him to take Chu Liang up to the third floor and outside a private room.
Standing outside the box were two strong men with bulging temples. They seemed to be Yan Xiaohu's new bodyguards. Their cultivation level was obviously higher than the two last time.
"Sir, please wait a moment. I will go in and inform you." The young man said.
"No, I can just go in by myself." Chu Liang held him down gently, and then walked forward.
The power of the two bodyguards was intimidating. When they saw Chu Liang approaching, they assumed a posture of not being close to strangers. But Chu Liang was not afraid at all, and still approached him and said politely: "Hello, I'm here to see Yan Xiaohu, I'm his classmate."
"Classmate?" The bodyguard on the left raised his eyebrows, "The young master said, no one will be seen."
The bodyguard on the right was more direct and said coldly: "Get out."
"That's it..." Chu Liang smiled slightly.
…
"When will Miss Zoey come?"
In the box, Yan Xiaohu looked unhappy, and beside him sat two good girls in colorful skirts who were timid. They looked very flustered, for fear that the little bully would get angry.
"Sister Zoey is having a chat with someone and will be here later. Master Yan, please don't be anxious."
"I've spent thousands of taels of silver on her, why can't I be ranked first?" Yan Xiaohu's face was still hurt, and he said angrily: "I'm very angry now."
It was precisely because he received a severe beating yesterday and lost face in Nanshan Academy that he felt depressed and wanted to have some fun. As a result, when I got here, I was told that Miss Zoey was not available and had to wait for a while.
While he was getting angry, suddenly, he heard a few bangs outside the door, the door was knocked open, and two bodyguards rolled in.
"Who is it?" Yan Xiaohu immediately stood up and shouted.
"Young Master, if he insists on breaking in, we...we two can't stop him." The bodyguard got up and wailed.
"Who in Yanjiao City dares to offend me, Yan Xiaohu?" He was about to have a fit.
Immediately, Chu Liangfeng walked in calmly.
"Ah..." Yan Xiaohu's anger dissipated instantly. First he was confused for a moment, and then turned into a polite smile, "Chu...Brother Chu, it's you."
He is now afraid of Chu Liang, not just because he cannot beat him. It's because, after his father saw the sword coin sent by Chu Liang, he directly told him that we can't afford to offend this kind of person. Don’t even think about revenge.
The people who can beat you have a greater background than you, which is very helpless.
"I came to visit you, but they told me to get out." Chu Liang said calmly.
"They are so rude!" Yan Xiaohu frowned and shouted: "You two, get out of here!"
The two bodyguards were scolded again for no apparent reason, so they had no choice but to run out in despair, closing the door behind them.
"Hey, Brother Chu, please sit down." Yan Xiaohu had a doggy smile on his face.
"Thank you." Chu Liang came over and looked at the two good girls on the side.
The two good girls are not very old. In their opinion, Yan Xiaohu is already the most vicious little bully in Yanjiao City. They never expected that this handsome young man would make him so afraid.
So they became even more afraid.
But Chu Liang's gentle smile at them quickly dispelled their fears.
A young man with such a beautiful smile can't be a bad guy after all, right?
"What's that behind the two girls?" The handsome young man pointed his hand behind them with confusion on his face.
"What?" The two girls looked back.
Bang, bang.
Just after hearing two muffled sounds, the two good girls fell to the ground softly.
Chu Liang was behind them, holding half a shiny gold brick with a look of disappointment on his face.
"Ah..." Yan Xiaohu, who had witnessed the whole process, opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.
A little confused.
The Yan family can be regarded as a prostitution and gambling heir. Yan Xiaohu has been hanging out with his elders in the land of fireworks since he was a child, and has seen all kinds of props in the brothel.
Only Brick, this is the first time I’ve seen it.
What kind of fetish is this?
He saw Chu Liang weighing the gold bricks in his hand, put them away and said: "Don't worry, they are fine, they just happened to trigger dizziness. But you are in danger, do you know?"
"Am I in danger?" Yan Xiaohu was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
yes.
I'm not in danger if you're here.
"Chen Da also died last night. Among the people who bullied Situ Yan, you are the only one left." Chu Liang said bluntly: "Situ Yan may have become a painted ghost with the ability to transform others. Everyone who is close to you , it may change."
"Ah?" Yan Xiaohu was shocked.
He had also heard of things like Situ Yan turning into a wraith to take revenge before, but he didn't take it seriously. Because he is different from those people. He practices martial arts and is protected by masters. It is impossible for a grudge to kill people in the Black Tiger Gang.
But……
If it was the legendary Painted Skin Ghost, it would be easy to kill him as a small first-level warrior.
No matter how dangerous Chu Liang is, just give him a beating. If it is a ghost, it will be fatal.
He immediately understood his priorities and realized that Chu Liang must be here for him, and immediately asked: "Brother Chu...can you help me?"
"I'm here to save you." Chu Liang said, "I suspect that you have been targeted by Painted Skin Ghost, so I came to look at you. I have a way to identify Painted Skin Ghost. Anyone who approaches you tonight needs to be tested. A test.”
"Okay, okay." Yan Xiaohu nodded repeatedly, then pointed at the two good girls on the ground: "Brother Chu, test them quickly."
"..." Chu Liang paused and replied, "I have already experienced it."
