Chapter 42 The building that disappeared out of thin air
Zhou Tian felt a little embarrassed, so he might as well leave.
"Hey? Boy? What are you doing? Are you leaving?" The elderly woman seemed to not want to let him go, and her tone gradually became tougher.
Zhou Tian then nodded: "This is not suitable for me."
After saying that, Zhou Tian opened the curtain and walked out the door.
At this moment, a hand pressed his shoulder, and his voice was low and hoarse, sounding like a duck's call.
"Sir, we have to pay you when you come to Shichun Building. If you want to have fun here, we welcome you."
"But if you want to leave, please leave some silver behind. It's hard for us to do business these days, so please forgive me."
After Zhou Tian heard this, he turned around and said, "What a good guy! He has a beard as thin as a willow, black eyes, and his small eyes are completely negligible. He is really shabby."
"Who are you?"
The man glanced at his beard and said with a sinister smile: "Huh, I'm just..."
At this time, a man dressed with a noble air passed by: "Oh, he is just a turtle..."
After saying that, he opened the curtain and walked away.
It turned out that he was the turtle man in charge of the brothel. It was really embarrassing to be called that. So he shrugged and said angrily: "What on earth are you doing, kid? Don't delay us from opening the business."
Zhou Tian didn't want to cause trouble, so he raised his eyebrows, looked at him and asked, "How much? If you leave now."
"Thirty taels of silver, any silver note or silver leaf will do!"
Zhou Tiangang was about to ask why it was so expensive. Suddenly a woman fell from the third floor. The guest officer shouted: "Madam, hurry! Hurry... someone jumped off the building."
It turns out that this older woman is the madam, no wonder she is colluding with Mr. Turtle.
When he heard the sound, even if someone caught him at three stories high, for ordinary people, his arms would be useless.
Zhou Tian scanned the whole week, and sure enough, no one came to save him. He thought: Forget it, it’s important to have only one person. So he jumped up and came to the center of the lobby. He looked up and stepped hard on the ground with one foot. He jumped up again, just in time to fall.
The woman in the building was in his arms, and the two slowly landed on the ground, like a couple of gods. The scene was so beautiful that the other girls in the building immediately let out envious sounds.
Because the incident happened suddenly, Zhou Tian did not look carefully at the girl in his arms. After rescuing her, he hurriedly placed her on the chair next to him and left in a hurry.
At this time, the Madam and Turtle took one look and did not stop them.
"I don't know the name of the young master. I don't know how to repay the kindness of saving my life..."
The rescued girl suddenly opened her mouth, which made Zhou Tian stunned. He turned around and took a closer look. This woman was wearing a green smoked sweater, a pleated skirt with scattered flowers, mist and green grass, and a thin veil of green water. Her shoulders were as if they were cut into pieces.
The waist is as slim as the waist, the muscles are as thick as fat, and the air is as quiet as the air. She is charming, boneless and gorgeous.
I couldn't help but feel waves in my heart, such a woman is really beautiful.
Zhou Tian clasped his hands and saluted each other: "This girl, it is your duty to save people. No matter who sees such beauty...ah, no, no matter who sees her, she will save her."
"Don't worry!"
Zhou Tian stammered for the first time when he spoke. He looked down on himself and was quite embarrassed. He thought about it and just left.
"My name is Xia Shuning, where is the young master?"
Zhou Tian had no choice but to tell his name: "My name is Zhou Tian, I..."
"Hey, this Xia Shuning is the number one in Shichun House, and she is also an oiran. She is a performer but not a person. I didn't expect that the young master was so lucky that he actually saved her and even knew her real name. You kid really cultivated yourself for hundreds of years in your previous life.
What a blessing!”
Zhou Tian was a little confused. He only knew a person's name. How could he be blessed? But he didn't know that the women in brothels all called themselves by flower names. Very few people knew their real names. If they wanted to know, they would have to spend a lot of money or redeem themselves.
.
When Zhou Tianchu came to the brothel, he didn't know this. He stepped forward and took a closer look, and he couldn't help but feel peach blossoms in his heart: Sure enough, the beauty of pink and white is better than ordinary women.
"Are you Zhou Tian? The son of Zhou Liting, from the Xuantian Sect."
Zhou Tian originally wanted to chat with this girl for a few words, but the sudden question made him sober up. He looked up and saw that it was the man who had just asked the madam to save someone on the third floor.
"Yes, I am none other than Zhou Tian of Xuantian Sect. You actually know my father's name. Who are you?"
"If you are someone who knows Xuantian Sect or knows my father, he should be a qi cultivator. Just now Xia Shuning fell from the building, why didn't you save her?"
Zhou Tian is very smart and observes very carefully, which surprised this person, so he jumped down and looked carefully: "Are you the person who broke through to the top of Qianling Pagoda?"
Zhou Tian's eyes were twitching as he looked at the man in front of him, holding a folding fan in his hand and wearing white clothes with several golden phoenixes painted on him. He could be considered a talented person with all his facial features, but why did he not save him even in the face of death?
Then my heart sank: Even if everyone knew about Thousand Spirits Pagoda, how would he know that it was me.
Just as Zhou Tian frowned and thought to himself, the man opened the folding fan in his hand and smiled frivolously: "Don't think about it. I have been paying attention to you since you entered the city. I am just a little unsure. If you hadn't entered this brothel,
, I really haven’t had a chance to test it.”
Seeing his proud look, Zhou Tian tilted his head and looked at the fan in his hand: "Testing?"
"Yes, the White-armored Paladin, the personal knight under the city lord of Xiyun Palace, has sent a letter to inform the city lord, but he is a little unsure. Let me take a look."
After Zhou Tian heard this, he looked at Xia Shuning beside him and asked carefully: "I haven't had time to ask, is the girl okay just now?"
Xia Shuning smiled warmly: "It's okay, I was just frightened..."
As she spoke, she looked at the madam by the door, something seemed wrong in her eyes.
But Zhou Tian didn't notice it, so he said to her politely: "Since the girl is fine, I will leave first. I was anxious to save someone just now, so I may have been presumptuous. Please forgive me."
After that, he opened the curtain and walked away.
After leaving Chunchun Tower, Zhou Tian kept murmuring in his heart, always feeling that something was wrong, but he just couldn't explain it.
Thinking that Lao Xu should know, he bought a few scallion pancakes and a jar of wine at the market, and quickly returned to the inn.
When I opened the door to the room, I saw that Lao Xu was still sleeping soundly.
So he placed the scallion pancake in front of his nose, and after a while, Old Xu sat up with a whoosh.
"cake?"
Taking advantage of the situation, he took a look and saw that there was indeed a cake. He started to eat it when he was about to eat it, but Zhou Tian snatched it away.
"Master, you..."
Zhou Tian moved a stool to Xu Qingnian's bed and asked: "Old Xu, tell me what a white-armored paladin is? There are no soldiers and horses in this city. Where did the paladin come from?"
When Lao Xu heard these four words, he was not surprised at first, but when they were spoken through Zhou Tian's mouth, it was really strange.
"The White-armored Paladin is the personal knight of Xiyun Palace City Lord. It is also the place where masters gather in Xiyun Palace. They usually only appear with the appearance of the City Lord. They will not be seen at all on weekdays. How do you know?"
Xu Qingnian was a little confused and asked Zhou Tian.
Zhou Tian handed him the cake in his hand, and then told him what had just happened from beginning to end.
Xu Qingnian was devouring cakes and drinking wine. When he heard what he said, he was also confused.
"Master, please take me over now to see who the person with the fan is. If he is really someone close to the city lord, I should know him."
After that, Xu Qingnian finished eating the last piece of cake, got up and left the inn with Zhou Tian again.
"Lao Xu, the way you eat cakes is quite special. You are always so anxious. Were you really poor when you were a child?"
After hearing this, Xu Qingnian smiled stupidly, which was the first time Zhou Tian saw him.
"Haha, young master, this scallion pancake was something I could never ask for when I was a kid. If I have a chance in the future, I will tell you a story about my childhood."
Just as he was talking, Zhou Tian pointed not far ahead.
"Hey, it's right in front of you."
Xu Qingnian wiped the sides of his clothes with both hands. The clothes that had not been washed for many days were even more damaged by such a wipe, which made Zhou Tian look disgusted.
"That's it?"
"Isn't this just a restaurant? Where did the Shichun Restaurant come from?"
Xu Qingnian asked doubtfully. Zhou Tian took a closer look and was stunned.
"Just now it was Shichun Restaurant, how did it change into a restaurant in the blink of an eye? What's the situation? Why is it so evil?"
Zhou Tian looked at the restaurant in front of him with straight eyes and thought for a long time.
"Brother, do you know Shichun Tower?"
Xu Qingnian saw a salesman opposite and asked.
"Shi Chun Restaurant? I've never heard of it. The only restaurant in Xiyun Palace that's called a building is this one, and there's no other one..."
Zhou Tian also heard his answer, which made him even more confused.
So he opened the door curtain angrily, but after entering, the entire layout changed. The singing and dancing just now was peaceful, and even the strong fragrance could no longer be smelled.
"How can this be?"
Zhou Tian crossed his arms over his chest, frowning and thinking.
Xu Qingnian also followed in and whispered to Zhou Tian: "Master, did you remember the wrong location or read the wrong word?"
Lao Xu also didn't understand, but he observed his surroundings carefully.
At this time, a woman passed by Zhou Tian, holding a white dagger in her hand, but the smell on her body did not change. Since Zhou Tian's soul-eating blood entered his body, his five senses were very strong. He calmed down and looked at her back again, and blurted out
.
"Miss Xia Shuning?"
The woman was stunned, paused for a moment, and then strode away.
"Yes, I remembered correctly, this is Shichun Tower."
After that, he rushed out and wanted to ask for details, but in the blink of an eye, the woman disappeared.
Zhou Tian was confused for a moment, squatting outside the restaurant, his mind full of doubts.
Xu Qingnian looked at him and didn't know what to say. If he remembered it wrong or saw it wrong, why could he say the words "White-armored Paladin"?
There must be an article in it, so he looked around, but still couldn't see any clues.
He stopped in front of the restaurant and thought for a long time. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he hurriedly said to Zhou Tian: "Master, maybe this is a trick to blind people."
