Seeking the Flying Sword Path Chapter 9: See you again


bsp;Outside Yanfeng Tower, wealthy guests entered in twos and threes.

At the corner of the street, there were two young men. Although they were dressed simply, they were also very clean.

"Wang Laoer, do you really want to go in? It only costs one tael of silver to sit down and have a cup of tea. We worked hard for two months and only got one tael of silver!" The two young men looked at Yanfeng Tower from a distance. The enchanting figure is vaguely visible in Yanfeng Tower.

"I can feed myself and the whole family will not be hungry. As long as I can hear 'Fairy Qingqiu' play a song, it's worth it. Do you want to go? If you don't want to go in, I'll go." A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes urged.

"I, I still have to support my family. No, I won't go. If Yingzi knows, he will definitely scold me." Another short and stocky man next to him hesitated and shook his head.

"Is it your yellow-faced woman? I scolded you all night last night, and you also picked up the nobleman's purse. The nobleman rewarded you with a tael of silver. Your yellow-faced woman doesn't know! Let's go, let's go. ”

"Go ahead, it's too expensive."

"Don't regret it." The man with thick eyebrows and big eyes immediately strode away and soon entered Yanfeng Tower.

The short and stocky man looked at her from afar, feeling itchy in his heart. He finally gritted his teeth and turned around and left: "With one tael of silver, you can buy more meat, and your life will be easier. Yingzi must be very happy when he sees one tael of silver." Thinking about it, the short and sturdy man also had a smile on his face.

Qin Yun and Tian Bo rode horses to the outside of Yanfeng Tower.

"Mr. Tian, ​​I haven't seen you for a long time. Please come quickly." A pretty old bustard shouted loudly. This old bustard must have been a beauty when she was young. A turtle slave immediately stepped forward to lead the horse enthusiastically. .

"Let's go in." Tian Bo dismounted and led Qin Yun inside.

"Come and greet the guests." The madam led enthusiastically.

Suddenly a petite young maid came to greet her: "Master Tian, ​​please come quickly. Is this your first time coming to our Yanfeng Tower?"

"This is Young Master Qin, arrange a location closer to us." Tian Bo ordered.

"Don't worry, how dare we neglect your Master Tian's orders?" the maid said with a smile.

Yanfeng Building is composed of five buildings, the main building, the east building, the south building, the west building and the north building. Among them, the main building usually welcomes guests from all over the world, but the other four floors, southeast, northwest and non-distinguished guests are not allowed to enter.

At this moment, Qin Yun and Tian Bo entered the main building and were taken to a position near the railing.

The railings surround the central stage, with musicians playing behind the stage and two dancers dancing gracefully on the stage.

"Brother Yun, these are ordinary girls now. A famous prostitute will come out later. We are the closest here." Tian Bo said. The two sat down with a coffee table in front of them. Tian Bo said very skillfully, "Melon The fruits and snacks are served, and a pot of tea is made."

"Go quickly."

The young maid was waiting on the side to help make tea, and at the same time asked other maids to bring melons, fruits and snacks. Then he rubbed Tian Bo's shoulders very naturally: "Mr. Tian, ​​does Mr. Qin need a sister to take care of him?"

"No need." Qin Yun said, having traveled around the world for six years, he naturally understands the rules in brothels. In brothels like Yanfeng Tower, the maids only serve to rub shoulders and legs, but they don't Don't sell yourself.

"Will Xiaoshuang come out tonight?" Qin Yun asked.

"Sister Xie Shuang entered a brothel and changed her name." Tian Bo said, "Now her stage name is 'Chen Shuang'. She came here to pay off debts, so naturally Yanfeng Tower often lets her come out to meet guests."

"Chen Shuang?" Qin Yun whispered softly, but his heart hurt. The girl back then was now forced into a brothel.

In Yanfeng Tower, the seats are also particular.

The high-profile guests are either in a private room, which is more private but farther away from the stage. Either sit close to the table, and usually the beautiful maids will be seen rubbing their legs and feeding them fruits. The seats in the back are much smaller, and they usually just order the most ordinary pot of tea without asking anyone to wait on them. That would be the lowest cost of ‘one tael of silver’!

……

Time passes.

On the stage, one by one appeared in turn.

As the flute sounded, the most famous "Qingqiu Girl" in Yanfeng Tower was dressed in green and sat quietly playing. Falling into a dream, all the disturbances in the mortal world seemed to have gone away, and even Qin Yun could not help but be attracted to listen quietly.

When the sound of the flute stopped, Miss Qingqiu had already stood up, holding the flute in her bare hands, and turned around to leave.

"Where is Fairy Qingqiu?"

"It's like a dream. When you wake up from the dream, Fairy Qingqiu is no longer there."

Many people around were disappointed, and everyone was amazed. Even the young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes in the corner was very excited: "It's worth it to listen to Qingqiu Fairy."

Qin Yun nodded slightly after hearing this. Such flute skills are indeed remarkable.

"The sound of Fairy Qingqiu's flute is getting more and more extraordinary. In my opinion, Fairy Qingqiu will win the Oiran title this time."

"Is the oiran so easy to win? Since Fairy Qingqiu came to our Guangling County, she has chosen oiran twice in a row. Fairy Qingqiu was only selected into the top three and failed to win the position of oiran."

"Last year, the Xiangyi girl was able to beat the delicate fairy and win the oiran title. The year before last, the 'Rumeng Pavilion Master' was also able to win the oiran title. It was too unfair."

There was a lot of buzz around.

"Choose an oiran?" Qin Yun also knows that Guangling County is a big city with hundreds of thousands of people, so choosing an oiran is a grand event! All the famous brothels will try their best to compete. Not to mention becoming an oiran, but even entering the "top ten" among many famous prostitutes, that will greatly increase their fame! But in a brothel, fame is just money!

"Yanfenglou naturally strives for courtesans. The Qingqiu girl just now is the number one courtesan in Yanfenglou." Tian Bo said, "She was originally the daughter of an official, but her family was in trouble, so she fell into prostitution, but soon She became so famous. Yanfenglou invited her from Wu County. Even if a famous prostitute like her comes to Yanfenglou, she is still free and can leave whenever she wants. Even Yanfenglou cannot restrain her. If you want to meet this Qingqiu girl, you have to pay a hundred taels of silver, and you have to see if Qingqiu girl is willing."

"Yanfenglou tried his best to help Miss Qingqiu and win the position of oiran for her, but unfortunately it failed in the past two years." Tian Bo shook his head.

"Where's Xiaoshuang, have you chosen the oiran?" Qin Yun asked.

"Sister Xie Shuang just entered Yanfeng Tower earlier. She was not famous enough and was not among the candidates. She was a candidate last year, but she was not among the top ten." Tian Bo said, "There is no hope for this year either. After all, in Yanfeng Tower, Fenglou is only ranked fifth."

Qin Yun nodded and said nothing more.

Although there were plates of snacks and cut fruits in front of him, Qin Yun didn't touch them and just drank tea. Finally, after drinking two cups of tea.

"Huh."

A heroic figure in red flew out from behind, slashed across the sky with a sword, and finally landed on the stage.

Girl ‘Chen Shuang’ from Yanfeng Tower, sword dance!

"Xiaoshuang." Qin Yun's hand holding the tea cup tightened. The girl who was only thirteen years old when we parted is now nineteen years old and is a big girl.

Sister Xie Shuang back then was young and didn’t know what it was like to be sad, and she was very simple. If your father passed away because he was seriously ill in bed for a long time, you would be mentally prepared. The death of his only relative, his eldest brother Xie Lei, was a huge blow to Xie Shuang. She had to stand up and compensate the poor family members of the dead man, and even ended up selling herself to a brothel to make money.

"You're grown up, you're a big girl." Qin Yun whispered, Xie Shuang had changed a lot.

A pair of sword eyebrows are full of heroism, even making people feel fierce when wielding the sword, but her temperament always has a slight sense of weakness.

Heroism and fragility are blended into one.

"The swordsmanship I taught her was changed like this." Qin Yun shook his head slightly, feeling complicated in his heart.

As the music played, Miss Chenshuang on the stage turned around and stabbed, but she saw the table in this direction.

Miss Chenshuang was startled.

That figure...the man sitting with Tian Bo...

Memories flashed through my mind.

"Xiao Shuang, this sword move should be used like this." Qin Yun, a young man who was only thirteen years old at the time, taught him.

"Brother Yun, I know how, I know how, I'll do it again for you to see." Xie Shuang, a girl who was eleven years old at the time, was even more excited to try again.

"You have to practice hard. Your brother Yun is now in the realm of combining man and sword. He is better than your elder brother and me." Looking on from the side, Xie Lei is already quite strong at only fourteen years old. Then laughed.

……

Miss Chenshuang's eyes were sore, and she couldn't help but shed tears.

Qin Yun also looked at her.

The two eyes collided, Qin Yun smiled and nodded slightly.
