Chapter seven hundred and seventy fourth bath house
The three of them found a medium-sized inn, and after eating some food, Zhang Xiaowu sent Brother Ying to tell the postman his address.
Gu Qingxi asked: "Are you ready to help him?"
Zhang Xiaowu said: "I am adapting to this society. It has been three years since I left Youzhou. Now it is a bit hard for me to believe that this was a fishing village in the past."
Gu Qingxi looked at the lively crowd on the roadside and said with a smile: "This Lucheng is actually more prosperous than Long."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Longdu has a hundred and eight squares, why is it not as good as Lucheng?"
Gu Qingxi said: "Brother Zhang, don't you think those 108 squares are like 108 prisons? People travel during the day and return to the square city at night, and there are daily curfew patrols."
Zhang Xiaowu smiled and said: "When you put it like that, I also found that they are very similar."
After a while, Brother Ying came back angrily. Gu Qingxi asked what happened, and Brother Ying said that he had been discriminated against. Just now, Brother Ying passed by a busy place, and he walked over. It turned out that a wealthy businessman was recruiting guards. He
He was angry because the rich businessman's standard for selecting guards was height, and he was six feet eight inches tall. The size scale for Shenghan was about 25 centimeters to one foot, and Ying Geer's height was about 1.7 meters, which can be considered a big man.
Already.
But the standard for selecting wealthy businessmen is seven feet, and he fell a little short...
"Master, look at what they chose. Did they choose martial arts? Did they choose embroidered pillows?" Ying Geer drank three glasses of water in a row and was still so angry that he couldn't sit down and paced back and forth.
: "I'm growing, maybe I can grow to eight feet."
After having nothing to do in the afternoon, Zhang Xiaowu found a large bathhouse not far away, so he took them to have a look. This Xile Bathhouse actually had a men's bathhouse and a women's bathhouse.
"Are there many bathhouses like this in Lucheng?" Zhang Xiaowu asked the waiter.
The waiter smiled and said: "There are many, there are many, but our prices are cheap, twenty cents for men and forty cents for women."
Zhang Xiaowu wondered: "Why are women more expensive?"
The waiter said: "It's just that it's hard to find female workers to serve women, and the salaries of those female workers are more expensive, so they are added to the guests."
"Where can I have guests?"
The waiter smiled and said: "If it were somewhere else, it's hard to say, but we women in Lucheng like to take baths."
Although Gu Qingxi was shy, she had not taken a bath for half a month, so she followed a female worker to the women's bathhouse. Zhang Xiaowu also took his young apprentice Ying Geer into the men's bathhouse.
It was probably the first time in his life that Ying Geer was naked in front of outsiders, and he actually started to coy.
The old man on the side laughed and said: "Southerners, you can tell they are southerners at first glance."
Ying Geer asked curiously: "How do you judge?"
The old man said: "Northerners are all naked and don't cover up. Those who cover up like you are all southerners."
Another person laughed and said: "The eggs of southerners are too small and they are afraid of being looked at."
The others also laughed. Ying Geer looked at the master with a red face and whispered: "Do you really want to take off your clothes in front of so many people?"
Zhang Xiaowu rolled his eyes at him and took off his clothes first, revealing the scars crisscrossing his body. Everyone around him did not dare to make a sound. They looked over secretly and exclaimed in shock: "Can such a person survive?
This is not like a narrow escape from death. It is simply a narrow escape from death. You cannot mess with this kind of person."
It was also the first time that Ying Geer saw the scars on Master's body. He was so frightened that he stammered: "Master, how many scars do you have on your body?"
"I haven't counted."
"Let me count them for you."
"good."
"Fifty-seven scars in total, and one knife that almost made you a eunuch."
"Shut up."
The two walked into the large bathhouse. After seeing Zhang Xiaowu's body, everyone who was bragging and chatting was so frightened that they stopped talking. More than thirty people of all races had never seen such a scarred person.
How many times does a person have to go through life and death? Those gang members and businessmen who traveled north and south, and the tough guys who had traveled thousands of miles across the ocean to become a saint, had to look at this person carefully at this time.
Brother Ying said proudly: "Master, they are all looking at you."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Let's take a look. You won't lose anything if you look at it a few times."
Brother Ying blushed and said, "This is the first time in my life that I have been looked at by so many people."
Zhang Xiaowu smiled and said: "We are all men, what are we afraid of being seen? Are you afraid of being seen because of your shortness?"
Ying Ge'er immediately shouted: "I'm not short. Although I can't compare with you, Master, I'm much better than the average person." Just as a few Wuhuan white people got up and left, Ying Ge'er took a peek and said in disbelief: "
Oh my God, Master, are they humans? Are they donkeys?"
"Promising." Zhang Xiaowu closed his eyes and enjoyed the bath.
Because everyone else was afraid of Zhang Xiaowu's scars, a technician ran to tell the owner of the bathhouse about the matter. After the man walked in, he glanced at it from afar and then went to look for his employer. The owner also disguised himself as a guest and came to Zhang Xiaowu's side.
, looking at his scars, the boss cautiously asked: "A soldier's background?"
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Retired."
"Have you ever killed Hu Yi?"
"Slaughtered."
"How many have been killed?"
"Can't remember."
"The order is waived, brother, I'm treating you." The host said cheerfully.
Ying Ge'er had a restless temper, so he went around to look around. When he came back, he was surprised that someone would give him a bath, someone would give him a massage, and if he wanted to find a brothel girl to play with, they would also be responsible for sending her there.
"Oh, I got it." Zhang Xiaowu was too lazy to pay attention to this guy. After letting the bather clean the dirt, he picked up his unpromising apprentice and waited for Gu Qingxi. It was always troublesome for women to take baths, so Gu Qingxi took a full bath.
Half an hour later, although she still wore a veil after coming out, she felt a lot more refreshed. She had never liked talking, but now she couldn't help but talk about all the novelties in this women's bathhouse.
Moreover, she learned from her mouth that almost all the bathhouses in Lucheng were opened by former ghost guard veterans.
"No wonder the store gave me a free order." Zhang Xiaowu recalled that when he was in Saibei, he liked bathing the most, especially hot baths with Pao Ze. Perhaps it was for this reason that influenced the soldiers and caused the bathhouse to
become popular in this world.
This was the first time in his life for Brother Ying to take a hot bath, the first time to take a bath, and even the first time to be naked in front of outsiders. This gave him a different experience. On the way back, he kept chirping to Gu Qingxi.
Seeing how magical the bathhouse is, he looks like a country bumpkin.
In the evening, the postman arrived after a long journey and invited them to dinner. Zhang Xiaowu said: "Brother, if you have something to say, just tell me. If I can help, I will help. If I can't help, I don't owe you any favors."
The postman said: "I am Ji Xianghai, the postman of the Sixth Post of Lucheng Port. I have a girl who is eighteen years old. When she was fifteen, her family arranged a marriage for her. She planned to get married this year. But who
Thinking of my future brother-in-law
She died of a disease, and my sister was so lovesick that she even planned to go on a hunger strike to die for her love. I saw that your height was very similar to that of my brother-in-law, and your voice was also very similar, so I asked you to pretend to be the ghost of my future brother-in-law to persuade her. What do you think?
