Floating like a dream · Chasing the heart

Feng Ruojin wiped the oil from the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, "That's simple. I said that you only need to check the case files of those people to find out. Except for those who have been in and out of Baihualou, the rest of the places where they live and go to the market are all You have to go through the street in front of Baihualou. Even if you don’t go today, you will go tomorrow, and if you don’t go tomorrow, you will have to go one day.”

Bai Lu poked the cabbage for a long time, then slowly raised his head, "So the murderer is probably inside Baihualou?"

Feng Ruojin said: "I don't know about this. Aren't you here to investigate the case? It's fine if you can't investigate by yourself. Ask me why."

Egret shut up again.

Zhan Ying rolled his eyes and pushed away the delicate dancer in his arms, "Since this is the case, there is no need to delay, let's go to Baihualou as soon as possible!"

Xuan Su wondered: "Didn't you say you didn't care about this when you came here? Why do you want to care about it all of a sudden?"

Qian Kun, who had been silent for most of the night, said at this moment: "He didn't intend to take care of it." Where there are many women, he likes to go where there are many women. This is his nature, and it has nothing to do with the investigation.

Baihualou is the hottest prostitute in Wuming Town, with three golden flowers provoking the beams, playing music every night and attracting a constant flow of customers.The red light building in front of the gate is tall, colorful silk ribbons are wrapped around the railings upstairs and downstairs, and the night wind is accompanied by laughter and colorful silk handkerchiefs swaying endlessly.It added a bit of noise to this not very prosperous town.

After coming out of the county office, Bai Lu has been relatively silent.Unlike Lu Xuechen, Lu Xuechen was adopted back to the mountain when he was a child, while Bailu was only admitted to the temple when he was eight years old.Zhanying learned from Lu Xuechen that Bailu's mother was a wandering actress who passed by a small town when she was 19 years old. She was bullied while singing and was rescued by the illegitimate son of a wealthy local family.The heroic rescue of the beauty has always been a good story, and the ending is similar. The rescued woman is grateful and grateful.

The identity of an illegitimate child in the local area is not recognized, so the young man does not have the arrogance of a rich family, and he does not feel that there is any humiliation in marrying an actress, and Bai Lu's mother has a gentle temperament, and she is considered rare. She was so beautiful, so, a simple red sedan chair took the beautiful wife home.

The two gave birth to Egret in the second year after their marriage. In those few years, the two lived in harmony and beauty, like a couple of gods and gods.But the good times didn't last long, as a man couldn't stand stealing, Bai Lu's father couldn't get rid of this cliché, and within two years, he hooked up with a coquettish young lady in Goulanyuan, and from the beginning he was sneaky for fear of being caught by his wife and children. I found that I couldn't bear it with my conscience and face, and then I just took the money from my wife's subsidy to go in and out of Goulan prostitutes in a big way, and didn't go home every night.

Bailu still remembers the picture of following his mother to the brothel to find his father time and time again when he was a child. The dazzling lights, the unscrupulous teasing, ridicule, and running around, piercing his ears like needlepoints, laughing at his mother's inability to scoop herself up. Hey, the actress is also a prostitute, and she is not much more innocent than anyone else, but she comes here to find a man?It's so ridiculous, do you want us to help my sister hang up a sign first, give her some business, and recommend a few guests?

And from the beginning to the end, the father never showed up once to defend his wife and children.On the contrary, it got worse, spent all the rice and food money at home, had enough of drinking and drinking outside, and then came home drunk and beat up, scolded mother for being low, overconfident, and conceited.Egret hugged his mother's bleeding leg and cried loudly, begging his father not to beat him anymore, as his mother was about to be beaten to death...

After all, my mother was not beaten to death by my father, but after getting up early one day, she tore her wedding dress and hung it on the beam, and hanged herself to death.

My father came back after being drunk in the middle of the night. When he saw the dead body hanging high in the house, he was so frightened that he didn't care about the egret who was crying hoarsely while hugging his mother's feet. , His head fell on a stone on the side of the road, and he died on the spot.

An illegitimate child is not recognized by his family, let alone a son born to an illegitimate child and an actress. After the death of his parents, Bai Lu became a little beggar on the street, and was finally picked up by a Kunlun Taoist priest on a safari. He became Lu Xuechen's younger brother.

"Otherwise, Daoist Xiaobai should not follow in." Qian Kun listened a few times and said aloud.

Zhan Ying glanced at the master, shrugged casually.But seeing Lu Xuechen looking intently at the beautiful scene in front of the Loufang, my heart started to feel sour again.I couldn't help leaning over and said: "I almost forgot, although you don't have to abide by the fast, but it's really okay for a cultivator to go in and out of such a place? Will it insult your own spirituality and damage your cultivation? "

Zhanying knew that although Lu Xuechen didn't need to be self-sufficient, at least he would want some face. He deliberately said so thoughtfully because he wanted to run on the Taoist priest, so he was embarrassed to follow him in.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the scholar glanced at the man in front of the building surrounded by a group of rouge and powdered women and dragged him in. He was silent for a while, and said: "There is a way, but I still need your help."

Kunlun has a technique that can transfer souls by borrowing objects. This object can be an ordinary object or a paper figurine, or it can be a real person.However, transferring the soul to a human body consumes a lot of spiritual power, and two people sharing the same body are also prone to accidents.And if you don't want to be attached to those women, it's even less of a choice to attach yourself to people, especially Zhan Ying.

Lu Xuechen borrowed a pen and paper from a paper painting stall on the street, cut a paper figurine with the length of a finger, and said to Zhanying: "I will transfer my soul to this paper figurine later, and the young master can just bring it in. You can do whatever you want, Young Master, I will find a way to check around to see if there is anything suspicious."

"Is this okay?" Zhanying opened his mouth stupidly, and asked again: "Then if they are found out and tear you apart, will you be okay?"

Bai Lu said: "Naturally it is impossible. The method of soul transfer is extremely dangerous. Any accidents in the borrowed body or the original body will damage the soul. If the soul is broken or cannot return to the original body, the brother will never be able to wake up again."

Zhanying said: "No, it's so serious? Then I'm under a lot of pressure?"

Lu Xuechen said: "My lord, you don't have to feel any pressure. If there is any accident, it is unavoidable. I won't blame you, lord."

Zhanying waved his hands again and again, "That's not okay, it doesn't matter if you die, I'm afraid I'll have nightmares at night! Why don't you follow Xuansu, and he'll be the one to blame if anything happens!" Mixing in in a different way?Prudence, hypocrisy!

Lu Xuechen said without hesitation, "That's fine."

Zhan Ying was taken aback for a moment.It suddenly occurred to me that maybe I shouldn't be talking like that.But once the decision was made over there, they began to act according to the plan.I found a teahouse nearby and found a clean and closed private room. After Lu Xuechen's original body was taken care of by Bai Lu and the old master who claimed to be too old to make noise, Lu Xuechen who turned into a paper man walked lightly and gracefully. He walked towards Xuansu's sleeves at a steady pace.

Xuan Su seemed to have caught a treasure, it was rare that she didn't show the slightest expression of disgust, she stretched out her sleeves, and waited secretly for the gentleman to enter the urn.

Just when the paper figurine was about to get into his sleeve, Zhan Ying suddenly reached out and pinched the paper figurine, held it up to his eyes and shook it.The paper figurine was cut very simply, with only the outline of the head, torso and limbs. A pair of eyes were drawn on the white forehead. It looked very silly. At this time, Zhan Ying pinched his neck and shook it around, his hands and legs were weak. Hanging down, swinging back and forth, only those eyes blinked twice slowly, proving that the paper figurine is conscious.

Zhan Ying was suddenly happy.He made a fake move of tearing the paper, and seeing the egret jump up nervously, he smiled and quickly put the paper figurine into his arms.

"I suddenly changed my mind. How can the third prince, who is so delicate and expensive, dangle such a dangerous thing around his body? I should work hard to do it for you."

Xuan Su curled his lips, and thought: Are you really so kind?Could it be that he wants to secretly do strange things with that paper figurine?

Leaving Bailu and Qian Kun with cleft canthus behind, Zhanying walked out of the teahouse with the paper figurine and Xuansu side by side, and went straight to Baihualou happily.

The enthusiastic bustard greeted the two of them up to the second floor, ordered them to serve tea and wine, and picked out a few outstanding ones, grinning all over their red lips, and said with a smile: "This is the most beautiful place in our place." My girl, you two, which one is better, just tell me, the two of you who are keeping and serving are satisfied!"

Xuansu looked left and right, and felt that beauty is beauty, but it was because of beauty that he was even more dissatisfied, so he took down a heavy ingot of silver, and said, "Go, buy some more!"

"Wait a minute!" Zhanying raised his hand suddenly, and Youyou turned his head to look at Xuansu, "You don't want to stay here and learn skills with me, do you?"

Of course Xuan Su is not willing to let his brother live happily here alone, "Why, why not!"

"Of course not! You are not afraid of the eye of a needle, but I am afraid that the shadow will affect my performance." Zhanying then took out a bigger silver ingot, and said to the old bustard, "Please take my brother to find another elegant room. The most beautiful girl, don't worry about money, the most important thing my brother needs is money, you must take care of her!"

"Okay!" The old bustard picked up the silver on the table with a smile on his face, and before Xuan Su could open his mouth, he called the girls behind him and dragged them out of the door.

"Little Ying! Let me tell you, don't try to steal away from me..."

"boom!"

The old bustard closed the door neatly under the signal of Zhanying's eyes, cut off the shouting outside the door, turned around and stared at the money bag in Zhanying's hand, and said with a smile: "If you have anything else to say, just say it." Well, if those girls just didn't suit my master, I can find whatever my master said I like, mom! It's not my mother's bragging, the most beautiful girls in the whole town are in our Baihualou, what do you want? What kind of one is there, gentle and delicate, charming and bold, with all six arts, and good singing and reciting, absolutely can't fault it..."

Zhan Ying lazily leaned back into the chair, and said, "I heard that the most famous of yours is the three golden flowers? I don't know which three?"

"Of course they are White Peony, Little Jasmine and Narcissus! People are as their name suggests, Narcissus is gentle and delicate, and as white as a fairy, but whoever takes a look at it will never forget it. Little Jasmine is delicate and delicate, and her temperament is also lively and cute. She is the most pleasing thing. To say that this white peony is even more extraordinary, not only is the head of the country alluring, but the temperament is also worthy of being the mother of the country—"

"I advise you not to say that when you go to the room next door." Zhanying smiled and interrupted the flamboyant bustard, threw away the money that the bustard had been staring at for a long time, and said without thinking: "Then then What exquisite little Jasmine!"

"Okay, okay! But...Little Jasmine's price is higher than the other two, so I want this amount." The old bustard stretched out five fingers.

"Five or two?"

"50 taels!"
