Chapter 43 Don’t block your choice

The entrance of the open channel is wider, and it looks like one of the largest eight-shaped water mouths in Tokyo. Zhao Yan has seen this kind of water outlet near the Imperial City. He thought it must be an important and prosperous area, so it was built on the scale in front of him, but no one near the Imperial City dared to build it. Just get close.

Without bowing too much, a few people walked in and saw two people standing behind the iron door. They were both dressed in short skirts and green beards. They wore close-fitting cloth clothes with green beards and a red belt around their waists. They stood at their feet. He akimbo looked at a few people.

He added: "Dear guests, just go forward and someone will attend to you."

Zhu Xiaoyi was familiar with him, so he just ignored him and led the way.

Zhao Tong looked around and saw that there was a deep groove on the ground inside the canal, which was a waterway. It was the same as the blood groove of the sword, and he couldn't help but admire it secretly.

The canal walls on both sides were lined with bluestones, which were smooth and covered with moss. Every few feet there was a lamp pit, in which oil lamps were lit. The oil lamps burned not vegetable oil, and the smoke smelled fishy, ​​but it was very bright.

Ouyang Bei muttered: "It's so choking, but I don't know how much bird fat it burns."

Behind him, Ding Daxie said faintly: "It's the oil that covers people's corpses."

Ouyang Beidao said: "The earth crab really knows a lot." Then he stopped talking.

The man was not upset after hearing this, and said: "Dear guests, if there is anything that needs to be covered up, it will be covered with a veil during the selection and cannot be recognized under the light."

The figure did not turn back to meet him, and walked forward after finishing his speech.

The young master said: "Of course it's not necessary. I'm just afraid that I'll get drunk and forget about it. I thought I was at my hometown in Yanggu."

After turning a corner, a person appeared in front of him, but he was holding a red lantern in his hand. The lantern was festive, depicting the picture of a lady, white and plump, with shadowy figures.

The fat black man said coldly: "Then don't drink wine. Don't forget where this is. If you pull out anyone's head at random, it's unlikely that they all have the background of a duke."

Ouyang Beidao: "This is just looking down upon me. The fat black guy sounds like old Tokyo, and the fat guy with the fat face has an accent from Shandong. It sounds like he is from the Yanggu Qinghe area."

After a while, there were three intersections in the ditch ahead. Each intersection was guarded by people with red ribbons wrapped around their foreheads and ghost king hooks in their hands, with ferocious faces.

One intersection is the main road, and the noise can be faintly heard, while the other two are similar to what everyone else is walking, in order to enter the ditch.

The young master hurriedly apologized: "It's just a villain who thinks wrong. It turns out that I also have someone to support me!"

The young master said hurriedly: "Brother Zhai, what do you mean by being picky?"

At the beginning, it was not narrow, and it was already open to people. After taking dozens of steps, it became more and more cheerful.

After saying that, he reached out and knocked down the corner of the book boy behind him, and reprimanded: "Zhang Song, you are so petty, you are not as smart as Da'an. If you come in for a while, you must not lose my dignity as an official."

Zhao Tong and others had already reached the head of the canal at this time, and saw that the front suddenly opened up, but it was not the original project. The two sides of the road formed a ring, and a deep and wide water tank was dug in, but it bypassed the direction directly ahead.

The young master's expression immediately turned cloudy, and he asked angrily: "Is it possible that you two can't hook up in some way?"

The fat black man nodded and put his hands behind his back. Although he was walking slowly, he still saw everyone.

The fat black man said: "That's natural. Not only do you have a backer, but this backer is as big as the sky. Why don't you come down and play in Guifanlou!"

Directly in front, there is a sunken basin like a small basin. It can be seen that the lights are bright inside, the aroma of wine and meat is fragrant, mixed with the smell of rouge and gouache, and the underground moisture is pouring in, making people feel like they are... An unreal feeling.

The young master bowed his head and said, "I have troubled my brother Zhai. I will thank you in the future."

The little book boy lowered his head and said nothing. The fat man in front of him said: "Stop making noise and walk faster. Don't obstruct your selection when it's late. If you're late, the good stuff will be picked up by others!"

The fat black man laughed and said, "In the future, I'll just thank you for it."

The fat black man's expression was distorted, and his originally seemingly innocent face turned out to be very ferocious, saying: "Then why are you and me here? Didn't you come to the capital to seek a background? Why did you go to Guifan Tower!"

"Sir, I said that guy has an accent from the Yanggu Qinghe area."

The last person was dressed as a schoolboy, wearing a blue coat and a small hat. He had soft limbs and a handsome face. He carried a small yellow rosewood box on his back and looked around. From time to time, he grabbed the clothes of the young man in front of him.

"Dear guest, please come with me."

Zhu Xiaoyi said: "Don't worry, it's not my first time."

But I heard the fat black man with a slight beard at the front say: "The officials want to find the rouge horse, but it's hard to find it anywhere else. Even if you walk all over the city of Tokyo, you may not be able to find it. Only the Happy Cave in Guifan Tower can do it." There is such a trick."

Huang Gudao: "You understand again. I think you should change your nickname. Instead of calling it that gust of wind, you can call it know-it-all!"

Young Master said: "That's right. I have a backer, but I'm also very afraid. I just care about not offending others and just playing my own game."

The young master's eyes flashed, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and he had an evil charm. He smiled and said: "That's natural, but tonight's trick should not be included in the thank you."

The other one is not too old, but has peach blossom eyes. He was born in a rough state. He wears a tassel hat, a gold exquisite hairpin, and a gold jade railing. He has a long waist, wears green ruffles, and shakes a Jinchuan fan in his hand. Son.

The young master wondered: "It's like this on the ground. Isn't this underground where Green Forest is on the run? How come you are here when you have such noble people backing you?"

The little book boy was handsome and shy, but when he heard the word "Dai'an", his expression changed drastically and he said, "Don't mention him, officials."

"Oh..." Zhao Tong looked at the young master after hearing this, then turned around and said nothing, but just walked forward.

Zhu Xiaoyi asked: "Are there many fish tonight?"

The fat black man said: "We'll find out when we get there, don't ask any more questions."

"Dear guests!" said the man who carried the lantern to guide the way: "The water outlet above is closed at night. Once you go down to have fun, you will not be able to leave tonight. You will have to wait until tomorrow evening to return."

"Where?" Zhao Tong suddenly asked.

Walking onto the main road, suddenly someone came from another channel and spoke loudly, causing everyone to turn around and watch.

When the people behind saw them, they also shut up. After a long while, the fat black man said in a low voice: "Guardian, remember, don't mess around with others. You are here to have fun at home, not to make friends and have fun." .”

There were four people there. In addition to the one who carried the lantern to lead the way, there were three more. The first one was wearing a large crimson collar, a brocade belt, and thin-soled fast boots. He had a dark face, a slight beard, and spoke with a Kaifeng accent.

Ouyang Bei whispered: "This guy with oily hair and pink face has a foreign accent."

The man who carried the lantern replied: "You will know by looking at it." After saying that, he walked away.

Zhu Xiaoyi turned around and said to everyone: "The fish refers to Xiao Niang. Because this underground ditch has water flowing from time to time, it got such a perfect name."

Ouyang Bei said in a low voice: "What I hate most in my life is forcing girls to be prostitutes! Anyone who is good enough should be killed!"

At this time, a person came to meet him, but he was not dressed in Confucian style. He was wearing a parrot green robe. His forehead was bare and he had no scar. He bowed and said: "You distinguished guests have come at the right time. Please come and take a seat quickly." , don’t hold back at this time and the selection will begin immediately.”
