"Thank you, thank you. By the way, fellow Taoist, why did you come to the Royal City alone? To buy medicine, to buy magic weapons, or to..." The monk's mouth was like a rapid-fire barrage of words.
soon.
As if sensing Fang Yu's eyes, the monk smiled awkwardly, scratched his forehead, and said: "Well, look at me, I've just developed a habit and can't stop once I say it. Let me introduce myself first.
My name is Wang An, and what I do in the Royal City is... to guide you fellow Taoists who are coming to the Royal City for the first time, so that you can more easily complete what you want to do."
"You have to know that this is the royal city, and there are many rules. For example, the moment just now was very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will touch the minefield. My existence is to eliminate these unnecessary risks for fellow Taoists...
"
“It means shopping guide.” Fang Yu said.
"Uh... yes, fellow Taoist, what you said is very good, tour guide... yes, that's what I do, help you do what you need to do in the fastest way, and then collect a little reward..." Wang An
He rubbed his hands with a smile and asked, "So, fellow Taoist...do you have any need for this?"
“My prices are absolutely fair and I’m honest!”
“If you have any needs, I will try my best to meet them.”
Fang Yu looked at Wang An, who looked shrewd in front of him, and smiled.
After entering the royal city, it would be a good choice to find a tour guide...
At least you can introduce him to the structure of the royal city.
Whatever you do next will be much easier.
Of course, Fang Yu doesn’t have a penny on him.
He didn’t even know what the currency was like in the Genji dynasty.
But money is the easiest thing to get.
Fang Yu was not in a hurry.
If Wang An is really useful, he will still pay enough remuneration.
“Okay, I really need your help.” Fang Yu replied.
“That’s great, could you please give me your surname?” Wang An asked happily.
There are many prerequisites for entering the royal city.
At least, it is not easy to get the token to enter the royal city...
Most ordinary monks from the heavenly clan will never be able to enter the royal city in their lifetime.
Therefore, in Wang An's eyes, Fang Yu must be a son of a wealthy family in a certain big city, and may even be a powerful person!
He will definitely be able to make a huge sum of money by serving such a wealthy kid who knows nothing about the royal city!
“My name is Fang Yu.” Fang Yu answered truthfully.
There is no need to hide his real name.
After all, according to his idea, if nothing unexpected happens, the name Fang Yu will shock the entire royal city sooner or later.
“Oh, Young Master Fang! May I ask what Young Master Fang wants to buy when he comes to the Royal City, or where do you want to see the sights?” Wang An asked.
“Well...I don’t have anything in particular that I want to buy,” Fang Yu said.
"Then it's here to broaden your horizons! That's not bad. There are many places to broaden your horizons in the royal city. I think Mr. Fang is of this age...Okay, then I will take you to a place that many men in the royal city, including princes and nobles, like.
The place I went to was eye-opening!" Wang An said.
“Where is that place?” Fang Yu asked.
“You’ll know when you go there, don’t worry, you will never let Mr. Fang down.” Wang An said with a smile.
Immediately, Fang Yu followed Wang An, the ‘tour guide’, and walked forward.
Going around several streets, turning and going straight, we finally came to a large attic.
From the door, this attic looks old and very inconspicuous.
There is also a sign hanging above the small door.
Ningyu Pavilion.
Compared to other places, this street seems a bit remote and there are not many pedestrians.
This is not consistent with what Wang An said is a place where many men like to go.
“Hey, Brother Wang, your place doesn’t look too good...” Fang Yu said.
"Hey, Mr. Fang, what's the saying? People should not be judged by their appearance, and the same goes for the attic. Don't look at it. It's a bit shabby. Once you get in, there's a whole new world!" Wang An said.
Immediately, he took Fang Yu to the door.
The wooden door to the attic is closed.
Wang An raised his left hand, tapped it lightly three times, and then knocked it hard six times. There were intervals between each stroke, which was very rhythmic.
Obviously, this is some kind of code.
After knocking on the door, there was no response.
“What’s going on?” Fang Yu glanced at Wang An.
"Don't worry, Mr. Fang. Although I, Wang An, am not a high-ranking figure, I am still relatively well-known in the streets of the royal city. This matter is still reliable. Please wait a little longer." Wang An patted his chest.
said.
Waited for more than ten seconds.
…
The wooden door is opened.
An old woman stuck her head out, saw Wang An, and glanced at Fang Yu again.
“Two?” the old woman asked.
“Yes, I will take this young master Fang to open his eyes.” Wang An said with a smile.
“Oh? From somewhere else?” The old woman had some eye contact with Wang An.
“Yes, I must present the best later so that Young Master Fang’s trip will be worthwhile.” Wang An blinked and said.
“Don’t worry...come in.” The old woman stepped aside.
Wang An glanced at Fang Yu and said, "Come in with me, Mr. Fang."
So, one after the other, the two of them got in through the crack in the door.
At this moment, Fang Yu basically knew what this attic was for.
The old woman led the way, while Wang An and Fang Yu followed behind.
After entering the attic, you have to pass through a courtyard.
The yard is deserted, there is nothing there.
After walking through the yard, there was a staircase going down in front of us.
“Under the ground?” Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, with surprise flashing in his eyes.
But he didn’t ask, and just walked down the steps.
It didn’t take long before we reached the bottom.
At this time, you can hear some music and the noise of talking and laughing.
The old woman led Wang An and Fang Yu into a hall.
This hall is completely opposite to the dilapidated style outside. It looks extremely magnificent and luxurious.
There are crystal gems on the ceiling, glowing with various colors of light.
There is a crystal stage in front, and tables are placed below.
This is somewhat similar to bars on Earth.
But in this era, it should be called a kiln.
“He is really a talented person. He has been visiting brothels since he first came here.” Fang Yu glanced at Wang An with a strange look in his eyes.
At this time, several graceful women in tulle were singing and dancing on the stage.
At the various tables below, there are men from the Heavenly Clan sitting, talking, laughing, and drinking.
Fang Yu glanced above.
Sure enough, there are private rooms on the second and third floors.
It's just that it's relatively secretive and you can't see who's sitting inside.
"By the way, Mr. Fang, please don't release your consciousness or spiritual energy in this place... Everyone comes here to relax, and I told you just now that some princes and dignitaries will also come here, big shots like them.
They don't want to show their faces... so don't release your spiritual consciousness to spy on them, otherwise things will be serious." Wang An warned.
