The soil has become refined [Sword Three]

Unlike other cities, Yueliang City is also brightly lit at night.

All kinds of lanterns are hung all over the streets and alleys, and children are chasing and playing in the street with lanterns. The names of each family are written on the thin gauze paper outside the lanterns.

I don't know who thought of this method first, it can be called the ancient version of "advertising".

Xie Qianjun took Ah Rang's hand and strolled leisurely in the streets and alleys of Yueliang City.

In the evening wind, a slender butterfly flew past Xie Qianjun. In a daze, Xie Qianjun slipped his palm, and in an instant, A Rang's figure was submerged in the crowd.

Xie Qianjun's heart tightened, and he hurriedly chased after him.

***

"Ah Rang!" Xie Qianjun held his hand again, and lightly reprimanded, "Don't walk around!"

"It's my fault." Ah Rang obediently admitted his mistake, "Brother, don't be angry with me."

Nodding A Rang's nose, Xie Qianjun straightened his face, "Tell me, did you find something?"

"Brother guessed it?" A Rang wrinkled his nose, "I seem to have heard someone talking about Tianxuanmen just now. It's just that the person only said it once and didn't say it again. I couldn't determine the specific location for a while. It can only be confirmed that it is a person on this street."

Seeing the street A Rang pointed at, Xie Qianjun couldn't help but fell silent.

"There's more!" Ah Rang suddenly felt embarrassed, "I heard that Miss Shilin from Zuihua Pavilion made Zuiyan Cakes that are very delicious! Miss Zinan from Qiuyu Tower steamed sugar cakes with lotus leaves , sounds very sweet! Miss An Yao in Xiaoxiao Court likes to make refreshments..."

"Stop for a moment." Xie Qianjun couldn't help interrupting A Rang, "How do you know these things?"

"I heard it!" Ah Rang seemed to have remembered something, and immediately begged for mercy with a bitter face, "Brother, I was wrong, I will never listen to those gossips anymore!"

At this moment, Xie Qianjun only felt angry and funny, that Ah Rang had also learned how to throw the blame.

Where are those flowers and plants talking nonsense and gossip, it is obvious that the little greedy A Rang is greedy for a while, and secretly used flowers and plants to collect information.

but……

Seeing that Ah Rang had provided information on Tianxuanmen, Xie Qianjun decided to forgive him.

However, in the next instant, Xie Qianjun's face was completely dark.

***

"Brother, why don't we go have supper?" A Rang suggested cautiously, "Well, there's also Miss Chi from Yemanxuan..."

"Eh..." Ah Rang felt chilly, "Brother?"

Seeing A Rang's face full of delicious food, Xie Qianjun unconsciously spurned himself in his heart.

Ah Rang obviously doesn't understand these matters of love between men and women, his only purpose now is... to eat!

"Brother?" Ah Rang has always been very sensitive to Xie Qianjun's emotions, so at this time he clearly sensed Xie Qianjun's wavering, so he continued his efforts, "I'm just going to try it, and ask them for advice on how to do it. I will do it myself in the future. Give it to my brother!"

For delicious food, please brother is a must!

Xie Qianjun glanced at him, "You speak better than you sing."

A Rang rolled his eyes and smiled, "Then let's go?"

Xie Qianjun stretched out his hand and interlocked his fingers with A Rang, "Go!"

***

Although Yanliu Alley is full of Qinlou and Chu Pavilions, if one did not know beforehand when one stepped into Yanliu Alley, it would be difficult for anyone to believe that this is the place where flowers sleep and sleep in willows.

That's why the houses here don't look like buildings, but rather like some well-to-do families.

Cars and horses were coming and going in the alley, and the sound of rattling was heard from time to time.And looking at the shape of the carriage, it is probably either rich or expensive.

Xie Qianjun took Ah Rang's hand and stepped into the gate of Hemingxuan.

As A Yang said before, the thousand shredded cheese here is very delicious.

As soon as you enter the door, there is a

A gentle-looking woman came over, "It's the first time for a guest? Is there..."

Before the woman finished speaking, A Rang had already started "calling people", "I want to find Miss Xuanxuan!"

The woman who led the way was slightly startled, seeing that Xie Qianjun was silent and didn't intend to call another person, she couldn't help sweating for Xuanxuan in her heart, but she still maintained a greasy smile on her face, "You two, please follow me Come."

After passing through the hanging flower gate and several verandas, the woman who led the way stopped, "Please wait here for a while, I'll go and call Xuanxuan over."

Xie Qianjun nodded.

When leaving, the woman inadvertently glanced at the intertwined fingers of Xie Qianjun and A Rang, her eyes fixed, but she didn't say anything more.

It's just that when I went to find Xuanxuan, I specially reminded the other party.

***

"There is so much aura here." A Rang took a deep breath.

"It should be some kind of spirit-gathering formation." Xie Qianjun said, "It's just that Jing Qiu is not here, so I'm not sure which one it is."

For practitioners, coming to such places is not just for fun, but more for practice.

Many of the women who were sold into this place were born into the furnace.

***

Seeing A Rang curiously looking left and right, Xie Qianjun didn't stop him either.

In fact, even he himself was a little curious.

After all, it was also the first time for him to visit the Qinlou Chu Pavilion in his past and present lives.

Well, the purpose of visiting is to eat with A Rang.

That's right, two people with no physical problems came to Hualou to eat together.

Huh?

It seems to be right to say so, but what you eat is not what you eat.

***

So, when Miss Xuanxuan opened the door nervously, two handsome men came into view.

One of them was dressed in green clothes, and leaned back on the back of the chair idly, with one hand casually placed on the low table on one side. There was a piano on the low table, and he looked ordinary.Hearing the sound of the door opening, the man glanced at her casually and then looked away.

The other one looked a little younger, about eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in a brocade robe with cloud patterns, and looked cute, with a pair of round eyes staring at him without blinking.

Thinking of that person's exhortations again, Xuanxuan couldn't help showing a touch of shame on his face.

If these two people really stay together again, Xuanxuan will not know whether it will be a blessing or a curse for a while.

Just when she was thinking wildly, the young man in brocade clothes who had been staring at her suddenly asked, "Girl, do you still have thousand silk cheese?"

Xuanxuan was stunned, "Huh? Thousand shredded cheese?"

"That's right," the brocade-clothed boy rolled his eyes with a smile, "I've heard people say that Miss Xuanxuan's silk cheese is the best!"

"Ah, this..."

"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient?"

Seeing the boy's dim eyes, Xuanxuan immediately said, "It's convenient! It just...it may take a long time, and the freshly made cheese is the best."

"It's okay! I can wait!"

Xuanxuan: ...

I always feel like... something is wrong.

***

A Rang burped contentedly, his eyes narrowed, "Thank you Miss Xuanxuan!"

Xuanxuan saw a small piece of residue sticking to the corner of Ah Rang's mouth, so she took out a silk handkerchief from her arms, and when she handed it out, she stopped halfway.

Because the man in Tsing Yi had already gently wiped away the residue from the corner of the boy's mouth with his fingers.

Thinking of that person's exhortation to her at the beginning, Xuanxuan suddenly had a trace of doubt in her heart.

These two people seem to be in love, and Yuan Yang has not been lost, Xuanxuan really doesn't understand why such two people come to Hemingxuan?

Could it be that... don't understand how men go to Wushan together?

So you came here specifically to find answers?

But, shouldn't you go to the Mo Nan Pavilion?

***

Just when Xuanxuan's thoughts were flying wildly, the man in Tsing Yi said, "Have you eaten enough?"

"Yeah, enough is enough!"

What is enough?

Xuanxuan was at a loss, had enough?It was only now that the two of them clearly did nothing... No! !

Seeing the clean cheese on the table, Xuanxuan's expression became more and more weird, right?

The eating in their mouths refers to eating, not eating clean?

***

"The guest is leaving now?" The gentle woman who received her first was surprised, she subconsciously looked at the sky, it was still dark, it was a good time to have fun.

"Yeah." Xie Qianjun nodded, "I have to go elsewhere."

After finishing speaking, Xie Qianjun took out several high-grade spirit stones and a pill, "I forgot just now, please give this to Miss Xuanxuan, Ah Yang and I are very satisfied."

The gentle woman stared blankly at the backs of those two people, then she didn't know what to think of, her face changed drastically, and she rushed to Xuanxuan's place in a hurry——

"Xuanxuan, are you alright...are you..." Seeing Xuanxuan who was obviously in good spirits, the gentle woman was stunned, "This... just those two..."

"Sister Fu, can you believe it?" Xuanxuan raised her head blankly, "Those two just ate a meal of cheese at my place, and they didn't do anything else."

"How is this possible..." the gentle woman called Sister Fu subconsciously said, but Xuanxuan's appearance couldn't be faked. look like.

"But...why?" Sister Fu frowned.

Their fees for Hemingxuan are not low, and for new guests, they must pay all the funds in advance.

Consuming so many spirit stones...

"Oh, by the way, this is what they left for you." Sister Fu took out what Xie Qianjun threw to her at last. Their Hemingxuan is different from those small places, and they will not take away the spirit stone at will. After all, the more spirit stones there are, the faster these girls can practice, and the faster they can receive guests.

Xuanxuan's gaze flicked over those few high-grade spirit stones, and finally landed on that white porcelain bottle.

After taking off the cork for a while and taking a sniff, Xuanxuan quickly put the cap back on.

"It's for recuperating the body." Xuanxuan said, but there was still one sentence she didn't say, which was Wuxia Pill.

Naturally, Sister Fu wouldn't care about the elixir that was just used to recuperate her body, but if she knew it was Wuxia elixir, Xuanxuan would definitely not be able to keep it.

***

After leaving Hemingxuan, Xie Qianjun and A Rang were not too tired, and simply walked along the long street, one by one.

In Zuihuage, Miss Lin sometimes makes Zuiyan crisps; Miss Zinan in Qiuyulou can make lotus leaf steamed sugar cake; Miss Chi in Yemanxuan makes pear flower soup with her own hands; Sipping tea while eating refreshments...

After visiting the entire Yanliu Lane, Xie Qianjun and A Rang became the talk of countless people in the world.

***

"Found it?" In the inn that was temporarily suspended, a white butterfly landed on Xie Qianjun's finger. The butterfly's wings were as thin as a cicada's wing, reflecting the light of seven colors in the sunlight.

"I found it, it's at the Hemingxuan we went to first." Ah Rang said with certainty.

Although eating is the main purpose, the two did not forget their business while eating.

Someone in Yanliu Lane mentioned Tianxuan Gate earlier.

But this time, Xie Qianjun and A Rang came for Tianxuanmen.

The nearly transparent butterfly trembled a few times at Xie Qianjun's fingertips, and then seemed to

The ice and snow generally melted.

"What did A Liao say?" A Rang couldn't help asking, looking at Xie Qianjun with a complicated look on his face.

"I don't understand the situation of Tianxuanmen now." Xie Qianjun smiled wryly.

The white butterfly just now is A Liao's communication tool, because she is the only blue jade butterfly left in the world, and no one can understand certain communication skills unique to the blue jade butterfly, unless she is willing to let her The other party knows.

In the interrogation, A Liao told everything about the Meng clan, and at the same time explained that the Meng clan tried to steal the Taixu Xianzong's earth-level exercises under the instigation of Tianxuanmen.

According to what Xie Qianjun learned, the Tianxuanmen Elder Chen who was crushed to death should be the person who contacted the Meng clan chief. However, the purpose of the elder Chen was to cooperate with the Meng clan and eradicate his son-killing enemy.

How is this related to Taixu Xianzong's earth-level skills?

Still want to steal?

If you think about it with your toes, you know that this is a fantasy, okay?

Earth-level exercises are considered the foundation of the sect, unless they are true core disciples, it is difficult to see them.

Although the Meng family is an affiliated sect, it is not within this range, okay?

Can't even see it, still want to steal?Who gave them the courage?

Liang Jingru?

While complaining in his heart, Xie Qianjun briefly explained the matter to A Rang.

Sure enough, Ah Rang is also a little dizzy now, "Could it be that Tianxuanmen has split from within?"

Xie Qianjun paused, and looked at A Rang's eyes brightened, yes, if the Tianxuan Sect is divided internally, then everything can be explained!

However, this still needs to be confirmed.

But for Xie Qianjun, this is already a huge breakthrough!

"A Rang, my little lucky star!" Xie Qianjun put his arms around A Rang, and kissed him hard on the forehead!

"It's my brother who is amazing!" Ah Rang said.

"They are all amazing!" Xie Qianjun did not argue with A Rang, "What reward do you want?"

A Rang rolled his eyes, "I haven't thought about it yet!"

"Then remember it first." Xie Qianjun said with a smile.

"Then shall we go directly to Tianxuanmen, or go to Hemingxuan to inquire about news?" A Rang asked.

Xie Qianjun murmured for a few moments, "Even if the Tianxuan Sect is really divided, if we encounter a common enemy, we may be unanimous to the outside world. We might as well find out the specific situation first."

***

When they came to Hemingxuan again, Xie Qianjun and A Rang called Xuanxuan, they were acquaintances after all.

This time, Xuanxuan came prepared. She changed into a simple and elegant attire, and brought a box of cheese and a box of pastries from other places.

"Huh? Isn't this..." A Rang picked up a piece of Zui Yan Cake, which was clearly Miss Lin's unique secret recipe in Zui Hua Pavilion!

He opened the lower floors one by one, and sure enough.

The lotus leaf steamed sugar cake made by Zi Nan; the refreshments made by An Yao; the pear blossom soup stewed by Xiao Chi herself...

All of them were eaten by A Rang.

Xuanxuan pursed her lips and smiled, "When I learned that the two young masters were coming, I sent someone to find the other people. If it was for others, they would have beaten my little boy out long ago, but... I heard It’s Mr. Xie, no, it’s all delivered in person in a proper manner, and Mr. Xie is the one who has the most face.”

However, having said that, Xuanxuan also had some guesses in his heart, probably, that Mr. Xie also left the flawless pill with the rest of the people, right?

Otherwise, why are the rest of them here?

These women, don't look at the rich clothes and fine food on weekdays, but in the eyes of others, they are just playthings. Compared with those ordinary brothel women, they have more uses for people to supplement.

They are still young now, but they can't live anymore

In a few years, they will even be worse than those ordinary brothel girls.

Because their foundations are already broken, like a big tree with completely rotten roots, it looks okay now, but with the passage of time, withering is the only ending.

But now, the Flawless Pill that Xie Qianjun gave them gave them another way.

After sinking for a long time, they no longer expect redemption, but hope that they will be a little more dignified when they die.

***

"Thank you Miss Xuanxuan!" The juvenile's joyful voice pulled Xuanxuan out of her low mood.

She smiled, "The two of you came by coincidence. I just figured out a new thing not long ago. Would you like to try it?"

"Yes!" Ah Rang replied without thinking, "What is it?"

"Chunyu Cake," Xuanxuan smiled faintly, and opened the food box.

Seeing A Rang savoring little by little, without wasting a single bit, Xuanxuan's eyes became more and more gentle, and she only felt a surge of enthusiasm in her chest, but it had nothing to do with love.

She thought about it carefully, and found that she seemed to regard the boy as her own child.

Such thoughts are really offensive, Xuanxuan's expression is slightly restrained.

***

Xie Qianjun squinted his eyes for a while, and realized that the timing was just right, so he raised his hand and poked A Rang's bulging cheek, "Today is the last time, and tomorrow morning, we will set off for Tianxuanmen."

Tianxuanmen?

Caught off guard, Xuanxuan suddenly raised his head and glanced at Xie Qianjun, but happened to meet his eyes as deep as a pool of cold pools, shivered for a moment, and immediately lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry."

"It's nothing." Xie Qianjun slowly wiped off the debris on A Rang's face with his fingers, and threw it into his mouth, "Do you know anything about Tianxuanmen?"

"Tianxuanmen is not far from Yueliang City, I have heard about it." Xuanxuan said cautiously, she couldn't figure out whether the relationship between the person in front of her and Tianxuanmen was good or bad.

It's fine if you're at odds with Tianxuanmen, if you're from Tianxuanmen...

Xuanxuan was a little anxious, Xuanzhu and Tianxuanmen have always been at odds, if Xuanzhu finds out...

***

However, at this moment Xuanxuan lowered his head and was thinking wildly, but he never saw that Xie Qianjun and A Rang looked at each other, confirming one thing.

Hemingxuan and Tianxuanmen are opposites, which can be manipulated.

While thinking about it, Xie Qianjun showed a stern look on his face, "I have some disagreements with Tianxuanmen, since you already know, I must not let you go..."

"So that you know, my master Xuan of Hemingxuan and Tianxuanmen have some conflicts, and I will definitely not reveal your whereabouts!" Xuanxuan said very quickly, her body was still trembling, because she was I really felt the killing intent!

"Oh?" Xie Qianjun's fingers lightly plucked the strings, his voice was slow and oppressive amidst the tinkling sound of the piano, "How can I be sure that you are telling the truth?"

"This..." Xuanxuan was at a loss for words for a moment, "I am willing to swear here, if what I just said is a little false, then I will..."

"Enough!" Xie Qianjun interrupted Xuanxuan, "Get up."

Xuanxuan didn't dare to get up.

Xie Qianjun touched his nose uncomfortably, looking at Xuanxuan's slightly trembling body, it seems that he really scared people just now...

Looking at A Rang's bulging cheeks like a little hamster, Xie Qianjun felt unbalanced for no reason. bulging cheeks—

Unexpectedly, Ah Rang was unprepared, and there were too many things stuffed in his mouth. Xie Qianjun's poke immediately...

"puff--"

After a while of "the goddess scattered flowers", Xie Qianjun looked at the crumbs all over the floor, as well as those on Xuanxuan's dress, coughed a few times, and calmed down, "You go and change it first."

Undress, find someone to change a room for us, "

"Yes." Xuanxuan walked out of the room walking on her knees.

Not long after, a little boy came in, "The new room is ready, please follow me, both of you."

The new house is better than the previous one, with carved glass, jade screens, and curtains strung with South Sea pearls——

Xie Qianjun pulled Ah Rang to sit on the empty chair.

"Brother, do you think something is wrong here?" A Rang looked around, apparently also noticed that the furnishings here are too expensive, it doesn't look like a prostitute's boudoir.

"Since it's here, it's safe." Xie Qianjun picked up the teapot on the small table without any notice, and gently turned it to one side, and clear tea gurgled out of the spout.

A Rang picked up the teacup and sniffed it, "Although it's not Yewei, it's not far behind."

Xie Qianjun took a sip. For him, as long as the tea is not too inferior, he can accept it.

"Knock, knock—" There was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

After the door was opened, a group of beauties came in one after another, each holding a jade plate in their hands, and three or four pieces of snacks were placed in each jade plate.

The size of the dim sum is very particular, it is the amount that can be eaten in one bite, if it is too much, it will make people feel choked, and if it is too small, it will make people feel that it is not enough.

A Rang picked up a piece and tasted it first, his eyes lit up, "It tastes good!"

Before Xie Qianjun could speak, a hoarse voice came from the door, "So, that little fellow daoist can use more, I don't have anything else here, just enough snacks."
