A prostitute encounters a monster at night

After everyone from Tianshu Division left, Zhang Hui walked to the bookshelf, raised his hand and pushed a scroll on the upper floor, and the huge bookshelf moved away from the middle, revealing a quiet room hidden behind the bookshelf.

Hua Jiao walked out of it, and just now she deliberately opened the window. In fact, she did not escape, but hid and set up a barrier to prevent her breath from leaking out. In this way, the tracking bead in Chu Xian's hand was lost.

utility.

"How did the alliance leader offend Tianshu Si?" Zhang Hui asked puzzledly.

After all this tossing, Huajiao almost forgot about the young man in white in the peach forest. After mentioning it in the chapter, he suddenly remembered the culprit of this matter.

She never expected that he would actually have one hand left to absorb her breath with the Dingzong Bead.

It seemed that he was determined to capture her.

What's worse is that he can actually dispatch the captain of Tianshu Division.

"Isn't the commander of Tianshu Division Lei Yan? He has been in charge of Tianshu Division for many years. He must be quite old, right? He is handsome."

Although Huajiao has never been to Lan'an in recent years, he has heard a lot about Tianshu Division. No matter how you think about it, the boy in white is not like Lei Yan in the rumors. However, he can give orders to the captain of Tianshu Division.

What is your identity?

"Lei Yan is already 40 years old, but he is a Taoist and has the ability to maintain his appearance. He looks like he is only 30 years old. In appearance, he is not handsome, not ugly, he is just an ordinary man. Leader of the Alliance

Ask him what he is doing?"

If it's not Lei Yan, that's fine.

You can't offend the commander of Tianshu Division as soon as you arrive in Lan'an.

Huajiao asked again: "Then, is there a young man in Tianshu who has a strange disease?"

"Strange disease?" Zhang Hui shook his head, "My subordinates have never heard of this. Why does the leader ask this question?"

Huajiao originally wanted to tell the story about the boy in white, but in view of his deceitful behavior, he finally did not.

At this time, voices came from downstairs, and the waiter came up to report that the originally scheduled guests had arrived.

Zhang Hui's eyes lit up, he put down the tea cup in his hand, raised his hand, and the snow-colored cicada clothes originally hanging on the hanger flew up in the air. He stretched out his arms to put them on, and sat upright, looking like a worldly expert.

Huajiao raised his eyebrows: "Is this a job?"

Zhang Hui nodded.

After a while, the waiter led a beautiful Orchid to the second floor.

She has a fair complexion, a high nose and deep eyes. She wears a high bun and a string of red beads hanging from her forehead. She wears a skirt with wide sleeves and a narrow waist, swaying in various ways as she walks.

As soon as Hu Ji saw Zhang Hui, she bent down and saluted, and said, "The slave family is Zuo Ernu of Yaoliang Pavilion. I have met shopkeeper Zhang."

Raoliang Pavilion is a brothel located in Pingkangfang, which is quite famous in Lang'an.

Zhang Hui nodded lightly and raised his hand to signal Zuo Ernu to sit down.

Zuo Ernu looked Zhang Hui and Hua Jiao up and down, sat down opposite them, and asked hesitantly: "Is your Pinmoxuan really able to exorcise evil spirits? Isn't it a lie?"

Zhang Hui coughed lightly, raised his eyelids, glanced at Zuo Ernu, and said slowly: "I see that your hall is dark, it seems to be contaminated with evil spirits. These days, you have nightmares every night, and you can't sleep well?" He deliberately lowered his voice.

, it sounds eloquent, and he looks like a magic stick.

Hearing this, Zuo Ernu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes. Shopkeeper Zhang, you are absolutely right."

He glanced at Zuo Ernu from the corner of the painting. She was only sixteen or seventeen years old, at the age when she was as beautiful as a flower, but she had dark circles under her eyes and a haggard look on her face, which is what happens to people who haven't slept well at night.

Pinmoxuan survives in the cracks of Tianshu Division, and there is not much work on weekdays. Four or five orders in a month are considered a lot, and most of them are child talismans, husband and wife harmony talismans, meditation spells, etc. It is not easy now.

When the job comes, Zhang Hui will naturally have to worry about keeping him, otherwise he won't be able to pay this month's rent.

Although Lan'an City is prosperous, Pinmoxuan, the branch of Banyue League located in Lan'an City, is the poorest. Of course, Zhang Hui glanced at Jingchai's skirt in the corner, and the other branches should not be that good either.

The leader of the alliance is all wearing such shabby clothes.

With a calm face, he looked at Zuo Ernu for a moment, stretched out his fingers and closed his eyes and began to calculate. After a while, he said: "Miss Zuo Ernu has superb piano skills. She can be regarded as the number one in Yaoliang Pavilion. It is said that she has been very proud of herself recently.

You feel so uneasy, maybe you are frightened?"

Zuo Ernu looked shocked, and the previous hesitation disappeared instantly: "The immortal is really a god. I am indeed the prostitute of Yaoliang Pavilion, and I am lucky enough to win the oiran title this month."

Zuo Ernu was looked at from the corner of the painting. Her dress was made of high-quality smoke and silk, which ordinary prostitutes would not be able to get on. It can be seen that even if she is not the number one in Yaoliang Pavilion, she is still very popular.

And her fingers have calluses on their fingertips, apparently caused by long-term plucking of strings.

Zhang Hui nodded and said with a serious face: "I look at the little lady's face, she has good luck but she is also surrounded by evil spirits. If we let it go, I'm afraid that the good luck will be wasted away, and maybe there will be worries about her life.

The evil spirits must be exorcised as soon as possible."

Hua Jiao echoed: "Shopkeeper Zhang is a real master. If you have something to do, it's okay to say it. He is a one-stop service for drawing talismans, breaking curses, exorcising evil spirits, and subduing demons. There are no evil spirits in this world that he can't drive away, and gods can't subjugate them."

You know, the commander of the Shu Division, Lei Yan, personally invited our shopkeeper Zhang to join the Tianshu Division, but our shopkeeper Zhang refused because he thought the Tianshu Division was too strict."

Huajiao raised his eyebrows and replied to Zhang's bragging about everything in the sky and on the earth.

Hearing this, Zuo Ernu looked at Zhang Hui with admiration, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, and placed several pearl hairpins and ingots of silver wrapped in it on the table.

"Immortal, please help me. This is the money I save in my daily life. Is it enough to ward off evil spirits?"

Zhang Hui glanced at the silver coins on the table calmly, coughed lightly, nodded and said, "Easy to say, easy to say."

"Chief Immortal, if you have really subdued a demon, so to speak, so to speak..." Zuo Ernu's eyes widened in fear, "What I encountered was really a demon?"

Huajiao and Zhang Hui looked at each other. They thought it was just about exorcising evil spirits, but they didn't expect it to be a big job.

Zhang Hui asked seriously: "Did you meet him?"

Zuo Ernu nodded: "Rao Liang Pavilion selects an oiran once a month. This month I won the first prize with my song "Flowers on Moshang". Several sisters who are usually close friends in the pavilion clamored for me to treat them to a drink."

That night, Zuo Ernu asked the Madam for leave. Recently her net worth had doubled and she had earned a lot of silver for the pavilion, so the Madam did not stop her.

She set up a table in the flower pavilion in the back garden of Rao Liang Pavilion, and drank with the three sisters Feiyu, Ruoxiang and Nongying who were close friends in the pavilion, facing the moon.

These people usually drink with their patrons, and have never had such a leisurely pastime. You offer me a drink, and I offer you a drink. Unknowingly, the night has darkened, and the back garden is silent.

When the wine in the jug was empty, Zuo Ernu ordered the maid to pour another jug ​​of wine.

The maid Ronger quickly brought over a pot of fine wine and several portions of rice fruits. Zuo Ernu poured a cup for each of the sisters, and they were about to toast.

"But..." When Zuo Ernu said this, his beautiful eyes were filled with fear, and he said with fear, "Feiyu suddenly shouted, saying that there was no wine in her glass, and I did not pour wine for her.

But I remember clearly that I poured four glasses. I was a little drunk at the time, and I thought I had missed her, so I poured another glass for her.

"When we sat down to eat the fruit, Nongying asked why she didn't have any fruit. I thought Ronger was omitting some fruit and gave her my share without taking it to heart.

But later, my cup fell under the table and rolled beside someone's feet. When I leaned over to pick it up, I saw... saw..."

When Zuo Ernu said this, his voice started to tremble: "That foot was not wearing any shoes or socks. It was dark and strange, not like a human foot. I was frightened. I had already woken up from the wine. When I looked at it again with wide eyes.

, the feet had retracted under the hem of the skirt. I thought I was dazzled, but then I discovered that there were five skirts under the table, including me. There was... one more person."

The moonlight was dim at that time, and the lanterns hanging under the flower pavilion were blown by the wind, the light and shadow swayed, and the shadows of the trees danced.

Zuo Ernu felt his hair standing on end.

Huajiao frowned: "There are only four of you, there is one more person in the flower pavilion, and you didn't even notice?"

"I looked at it later, and there were still four people on the table." Zuo Ernu shook his head and shuddered, "That... that halfling sat... sat next to me. There was a plate of fruit in front of her. Although

I can’t see the upper body, but the fruit keeps decreasing.”

This is half-hidden.

"What happened next?" Zhang Hui asked.

"I was terrified, and I was afraid that the thing would be alerted and attack us. I didn't dare to say anything, so I just told my sisters that it was getting late and we should leave. I stood up and was about to leave, but something stepped on my skirt.

It couldn't be pulled away. I knew it was it, so I couldn't bear it anymore. I screamed loudly, shouted that there was a ghost, tore the hem of my skirt, and escaped from the flower pavilion with my sisters."

The four of them ran out of the flower pavilion hand in hand.

Zuo Ernu bravely looked back and saw that there was indeed a person sitting in front of the table in the flower pavilion. Before she could see the person's appearance clearly, the lanterns hanging at the four corners of the flower pavilion suddenly went out.

The garden suddenly fell into darkness and silence.

Several people held hands and stumbled away along the paths in the garden.

Feiyu kept asking what happened, and Zuo Ernu told a few people about the matter, hoping that the thing would not come after him.

However, as he ran, Zuo Ernu felt that something was not right.

She turned around and counted, and was scared out of her mind again.

Still five people.

Zuo Ernu said with a horrified look on his face: "My maid Ronger left early tomorrow. I knew that thing was chasing her and got into the middle of us again. It was dark in the garden, we couldn't see each other clearly, and we felt like we were

The person next to you is that thing.

"At this time, I felt that the hand I was holding felt... hairy, and the man turned to look at me and gave me a weird smile."
