The fast-traveling girl has no feelings for her

Chapter 339 From Dancing Girl to General ([-])

When the morning sun shone on the river outside Hanbi City, a figure walking out of the morning fog slowly stood outside the city gate.

The city gate was originally closed, but two or three native soldiers who were in charge of opening the gate opened it at this time.

After opening the city gate, they were not surprised that there were already people waiting in line outside the city to enter the city.

Lin Shu, who was wrapped in a large cloak and robe, lowered her head and mixed with the crowd entering the city, and entered Hamby City with the crowd in twos and threes.

This ancient city is still very quiet in the early morning, women who go to wash clothes by the river have not yet gotten up in groups, and the shops on the passing streets have not yet opened their doors at this time.

After Lin Shu entered the city, what she was looking for was not the rows of low-slung rice shops and cloth shops, nor the dense cage-like factories with chimneys, but the ones that Babu had visited yesterday when he brought her here. dance hall.

These dance halls are of different levels, some are exclusively for low-cost prostitutes, while others are for the rich and foreigners in the city.

Lin Shu followed her memory after entering the city yesterday, and walked through a cloth dyeing workshop with colorful cloth hanging at the door, and came to a small one-story house that was not very eye-catching.

She took a careful look at the outline of the house and the two pots of red flowers placed outside the door, and after confirming that this was the house she had visited yesterday, she stepped forward and knocked on the other's door.

At this time, everyone inside was sleeping soundly, so when Lin Shu knocked on the door for the first time, no one came to answer the door.

When she knocked for the tenth time, a shirtless man with curly hair opened the door and leaned out.

The other party had obviously just been woken up by Lin Shu's knock on the door, and he hadn't even wiped off the yellow-brown secretions from the corners of his eyes.

Now when he opened the door, he scolded angrily, "Who is making trouble so early in the morning? Why don't people sleep!"

In the space between his words, he had already seen Lin Shu who had taken off her cloak and revealed her appearance.

Looking at the little girl in front of him who seemed familiar, the man stretched out his hand and rubbed the corner of his eyes. Why did he feel like he had seen her before?
He thought hard for a moment, and finally remembered that Babu brought Lin Shu to him yesterday to ask him about the dance hall.

So he looked down at Lin Shu and asked, "Aren't you the little girl who came here yesterday?"

Lin Shu nodded and said, "It's me."

The other party looked around Lin Shu again, and found that the latter seemed to be here alone today.

He put one arm on the edge of the door rail and the other hand on the doorknob, and asked Lin Shu, "What are you doing here as a child? Didn't I explain it clearly to your father yesterday?" ?”

"I'm here to teach people how to dance, not to do good deeds. If you want to come to my place to learn how to dance, you have to pay..."

Before the man finished speaking, Lin Shu suddenly interrupted him.

"I'm not here to learn how to dance with you, but to teach you how to dance."

After she finished speaking, the man's first reaction was that he heard it wrong.

But when he met Lin Shu's calm eyes, he realized that the little girl in front of him didn't seem to be joking with him, she looked very serious.

But she said she was going to teach herself how to dance, how could such a thing be possible?
Not to mention that he, who has studied dance for more than ten years, could not be inferior to a child. The fact that this child was brought to find a teacher by her father yesterday also shows that this child can't actually dance, right?

You know, the dances of their country were created by the gods.

A real dancer needs to have nine "lasses" (taste) in his performance.

If this child thought that she had learned some Tu ethnic dances and folk dances in the countryside, or had watched other people's worship dances and learned some from them, these things would not be on the stage here, let alone be able to beat him. .

Thinking of this, he lowered his raised hand from the edge of the door rail, and looked at Lin Shu with a serious expression.

"Child, real dance is not as simple as you think, and it is not something that anyone can learn or master. I know you deliberately exaggerated like this, maybe to arouse my interest and want me to I’ll take you in for free, but I can tell you that’s impossible. And there’s no way I’m going to let a child teach me how to dance.”

Faced with the man's doubts, Lin Shu showed no sign of cowardice.

She replied in a calm tone, "Since you don't believe me, then we can compete. If you still insist on your current thoughts after our competition, then pretend that I haven't been here today."

The man heard the certainty in Lin Shu's words.

He secretly wondered, where did this little girl who looked only in her teens get the confidence to surpass herself in dancing?
Could it be that she was the lucky one who was instructed by the Goddess Miaoyin?

After all, in the myths and legends and legends of characters throughout the ages of this country, there are always those who have been instructed by the gods.

In order to further test Lin Shu, the man continued, "Since you insist on being so persistent, it's not that I can't agree."

"However, there are conditions for me to agree to your dance competition. One is that I have to decide the dance repertoire of the competition, and the other is that once you lose the competition, you have to stay in my dance hall forever and obey my orders. I order it. How about it, do you agree to these two conditions?"

Regarding the two conditions put forward by the man, Lin Shu just thought for a while, then nodded and agreed.

With the original owner's deep love for classical dance and the dance foundation she has accumulated in each life's reincarnation, Lin Shu has the confidence to meet this challenge.

After seeing Lin Shu nodding, the man's eyebrows furrowed unconsciously.

Could it be that this little girl really has the confidence to surpass him?
Before he could continue to test Lin Shu, the latter said first, "I also have two conditions regarding the competition."

"One is that the referees of this competition must be the people of the city. In other words, what we are going to have is an open fight dance, which is to prevent the referees from being biased. Second, if I win, then you The second condition needs to be changed, and the actual owner of your dance hall will be changed to me. How about it, do you agree with these two conditions?"

After listening to Lin Shu's words, the man looked at her with vigilance and caution.

Based on the other party's sophisticated tone of voice and the conditions she raised, he couldn't underestimate the other party.

But if he really wants to bet on his own dance hall, the risk here is too great.

But this dance hall in his family is really difficult to maintain the business in the past, he even had to cooperate with some low-level brothels, but this is just a drop in the bucket.

Right now, the dance hall passed down by his family's ancestors is facing a huge crisis, it can even be said to be in jeopardy.

Because now many people can't even eat, how can they have time to watch and learn dance?
Also, the people in the British Company are really hateful and hateful. Those people even suppress and despise their religious beliefs, causing many of the originally grand and lively God-celebrating ceremonies to become deserted.

If the little girl in front of him is really someone who has been taught by Saraswati and succeeds in beating him in dancing, maybe his own dance can find new vitality through this.
