Changsheng walked around the city and found that there were four inns in Linxian County. Since it was not lunch time, there was no one in the inn lobby except the owner and the waiter.
Changsheng couldn't just walk in and ask the shopkeeper and the waiter. The most important thing was that even if there were Japanese people living here, the shopkeeper and the waiter wouldn't know who they were.
After pondering, Changsheng chose a relatively secluded inn to stay. This inn is located in the southeast of the county, far away from the busy city. The Japanese do things in the dark, so they are likely to choose such a secluded inn to stay.
There was a wooden barrel in the room. After being exposed to wind and rain for several days, Chang Sheng was eager to take a bath, so he asked the waiter for warm water, soaked himself in the wooden barrel, and then turned to concentrate and listen to the movements in other rooms.
The Japanese did not know that he understood Japanese, which was to his great advantage. Lest others hear the content of their conversation, Japanese people must speak their own language when talking, which provides him with great convenience in distinguishing Japanese people.
He had had several contacts with the Japanese before and had some understanding of their habits. The Japanese were relatively quiet and did not like to talk loudly. This was true for several people, including Takeda Mayumi and Hattori Kana. Furthermore, the Japanese are very thoughtful. Whether it was Kana Hattori pretending to be Zhang Mo, or the Japanese who was walking with Mayumi Takeda when she returned the hairpin that day turned around and looked back, you can see that they are very attentive.
After listening for a long time, he didn't hear any Japanese talking in the surrounding rooms. Chang Sheng got up and put on clean clothes. These clothes were found in the seller's load the day before yesterday, and they were also Han clothes.
After changing clothes, Changsheng left the inn and went to another inn. It was already dinner time and there were people eating in the lobby. Speaking Japanese language is not the only way Changsheng can distinguish Japanese people. Japanese people are very attentive when eating. Be picky and you can tell whether they are Japanese by their demeanor and behavior while eating.
There were four inns in the city, Chang Sheng stayed in one, and there were three left. In order to ensure that he would not pass by the Japanese, Chang Sheng did not make any inquiries and came and went in a hurry. Instead, he waited until noon before changing to another inn, and then ordered I persisted until the end of the day to get some food.
These two families can basically be ruled out. I wandered around the streets aimlessly in the afternoon and found no suspicious people. In the evening, I went to the last inn to eat. I neither found the waiter carrying the food upstairs nor the waiter. No Japanese were found eating in the lobby.
At this time, Changsheng was a little anxious, because tomorrow was the time for the Japanese to meet up, and they still didn't know where they would meet up from, and this trip to Linxian was probably in vain.
As night fell, Changsheng wanted to return to his residence, but he met two locals on the way. The two cursed each other as they walked, saying that the Peach Blossom Building had been rented out, which was really disappointing.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. When the two of them were far away, Changsheng immediately walked in the direction they came from. Just from the name, he knew that this Peach Blossom Building was a brothel, and brothels could also keep people overnight.
Not long after, he found the brothel named Peach Blossom House. Seeing that the door was still open, Chang Sheng became more and more suspicious that this brothel was a meeting place for the Japanese, because if it were not for waiting for someone, the brothel that had been booked should have the door open. Just keep it closed.
This brothel has two floors. The first floor is a banquet hall. At this time, there is only one table of guests near the door. Several prostitutes are drinking and having fun with the two men, and several turtle slaves are waiting nearby.
Seeing Changsheng walking in, one of the turtle slaves immediately came over and said, "Master, I'm sorry, we won't do business tonight."
Changsheng ignored the turtle slave, but turned to look at the two men. They must be around thirty years old. When he looked at the two men, they were also looking at him.
The moment they looked at each other, Changsheng knew that he was in the right place. From the look in their eyes, he could confirm that they both had spiritual energy cultivation.
"Kong Bang wow." One of them said casually.
Naturally, this group of prostitutes couldn't understand what this person said, but Chang Sheng could. What he said was Japanese, which meant good evening.
Seeing the other party's probing words, Changsheng immediately replied, "Ku Nixiwa," which meant hello, and his tone was relatively casual.
Changsheng has little confidence in his Japanese, because like the languages of China, Japanese also has dialects and local accents. Although he can understand Japanese and talk to the other party in Japanese, the other party can still hear him during the conversation. Not Japanese.
After Chang Sheng responded, one of them lifted up his clothes to reveal the token token on his waist, and Chang Sheng did the same.
After confirming Chang Sheng's identity, the other person pointed upstairs, "The general hasn't arrived yet. It's been a hard journey. Let's go upstairs to play first."
Changsheng didn't speak any more, nodded heavily to the two of them, and walked upstairs.
There are many rooms on the second floor, and the sizes of the rooms are also different. There is no one in the small rooms. The men's smiles and the women's chatter come from the largest room on the east side.
Changsheng stepped closer, the door was ajar, and as soon as he glanced through the crack of the door, his heart beat faster and his face flushed. Not to mention that he was inexperienced and ignorant, even a veteran thief who had been wandering around in romantic places for many years, saw him The scene in the room would also make his jaw drop. In his impression, the affairs of Dun Lun and the courtesy of Zhou Gong should be kept secret and avoided, but the room was a mess of evil spirits, unsightly and shocking.
Changsheng didn't dare to go in, and he didn't even see clearly how many people were in the room. Seeing that there was no one in the next room, he hurriedly stepped in and took a big breath to calm down the shock and horror in his heart.
It is not unreasonable for the sage to say, "Don't look at anything that is not polite." There are some things that you really cannot look at. Not only will your eyes be dirty, but your heart will also be dirty. I am afraid that the scene you saw earlier will be hard to forget. It will always be like a lump in your throat and a gleam on your back.
The sage not only said do not see what is inappropriate, but he also said do not hear what is inappropriate. At this time, he could not see it, but he could still hear it. Even the dogs in the spring village could not make such a sound.
It would be fine if it was normal, but what these Japanese and those prostitutes did was beyond the description of debauchery, they were simply worse than animals.
At first, Changsheng only felt shocked and shy. After a while, the shock and shyness were gradually replaced by strong murderous intent. At this moment, he finally understood why Chen Liqiu burned Pingkangfang that day. There were too many evils in this place, and only blazing fire could eliminate them. This ugly filth.
This group of Japanese ronin must be killed, but he doesn’t want these prostitutes to live. It’s just a matter of playing tricks with the Chinese men. The key is that the other party is some ungrateful, evil and ugly Japanese ronin, and they are like dogs. What's the difference.
At this time, a group of demons were dancing in the next room. Naturally, they would not mention business at this time, and there would be nothing to gain from eavesdropping in the dark. However, it was too early to take action at this time, because the leading Japanese ronin had not arrived yet.
When I was learning Japanese language from Chen Miao, Chen Miao also mentioned the Japanese samurai ranks. The Japanese samurai ranks are somewhat similar to the official ranks in China. The generals mentioned by the Japanese ronin who were guarding the gate are not the same as the generals in China. As a matter of fact, Japanese samurai generals are divided into Shidaishang and Ashigaru generals. Their status is approximately equal to the fourth- and fifth-grade generals in China, and they are intermediate generals.
After calming down and thinking anxiously, Changsheng once again came to the door of the largest room in the east. Although he knew what he would see, he had to look because he had to determine the approximate number of people on the other side before taking action.
Since everyone in the room was mixed and intertwined, it was not easy to determine the exact number of people. I could only endure my nausea and make a rough observation. Among them, there should be more than ten prostitutes and at least more than forty Japanese ronin.
Before spitting out, Changsheng withdrew his sight and walked to the west room, opened the window and jumped out. He had a habit of always trying to annihilate the enemy when facing them, in order to achieve the purpose of frightening the enemy. There were too many enemies, and he had no choice. Carrying weapons, it is very difficult to annihilate them all, so the big head must come to help.
Since the leading Japanese ronin had not arrived yet, Changsheng was not in a hurry. He hurried back to the inn and took his own luggage, then went outside the city to meet Datou and explain the situation.
The two men took weapons, returned to the county town, and lurked near Taohua Tower.
"Sir, please go back. The real master will come later and we should cooperate inside and outside." Datou said.
"If I don't go back, it will be the same if I stare from here." Changsheng shook his head repeatedly.
Seeing Changsheng's expression, Datou vaguely guessed why he didn't go back, but he couldn't imagine how ugly and dirty Changsheng saw. He just thought Changsheng was young, thin-skinned, and couldn't see or hear.
Changsheng didn't want to go back, so he naturally wouldn't force it, and instead said, "Sir, since you don't want to go back, you can't find out their details and motives. We will have to keep them alive for interrogation later."
"Okay," Changsheng nodded, "Once you take action, don't let anyone get away."
"What to do with those prostitutes?" Datou asked casually, "With the flash of swords and shadows, it is difficult to avoid accidentally injuring them."
Chang Sheng did not answer.
Although Changsheng didn't answer, Datou had already got the answer, because Changsheng had a habit of trembling his nose slightly when he had murderous intentions.
Datou didn't know why Chang Sheng had murderous intentions for those women, but he soon found out because a Japanese ronin went crazy after drinking and actually pushed a prostitute and knocked open the window.
Datou had been in the market before meeting Changsheng, and he was well-informed, but he had never seen such a situation. He was stunned for a moment. At this time, he finally understood why Changsheng was so murderous. This Peach Blossom Tower had already Instead of fireworks, it has become a ghost realm where demons dance wildly. No, even a ghost realm is not so ugly.
"This, this, why are the Japanese pirates like this?" the big head said in a trilling voice.
Chang Sheng did not answer the call. Although everyone was their own master, before that, his impression of the Japanese was limited to ungratefulness. Now, his impression of the Japanese was extremely bad, because these Japanese pirates, who seemed to be rigorous, conscientious and well-mannered, There is a ferocious and ugly side hidden deep in his heart.
After a while, the window on the second floor was closed again. At this moment, a carriage drove up from a distance. The carriage stopped at the entrance of Peach Blossom Building. Several Japanese ronin walked in surrounded by a leader-looking man.
"Sir?" Datou looked at Changsheng.
"Do it..."
