Chapter 153 (1/2)

While the three of them, An Zeng and Du were walking around the streets eating and drinking, Ding Shengxia had a nightmare.

Perhaps no one would have thought that there would actually be such a person in the Martial Arts Academy.

Ding Shengxia didn't understand what the Nineteen Demons were and what the Fallen Demon World was when she fled.

He only felt that he was entangled in a nightmare. He wanted to get rid of it, but he was also attracted by the promise in the nightmare, and was unwilling to get rid of it.

Xiao Qidao quickly finished his candied fruits and asked An Zhe, ””Big Brother An Zeng, what are you bringing me around for?””

An Zhan smiled and replied, ””Xiao Qidao, do you know that your ident.i.ty is very special?””

Xiao Qidao nodded, ””Yes.””

””So, this is not to take you shopping, but to bring you to know Fang Guancheng.””

You know you are special, but you don't know why.

One day, you may be caught up in one of the biggest dissension in the country.

””Therefore, not only must you protect your big brother Fatty and everyone else, you must also learn to protect yourself.””

Little Seven habitually reached out his hand to grab An Zou's. ””I will!””

””So from today onwards, I will bring you out for a stroll every day to familiarize you with this city.””

If there comes a day when you're in danger and we can't protect you in time, you're on your own.

Remember these streets, remember where to hide, where to hide for the time being.

so that you don't slip into a cul-de-sac when you're being chased, and of course no cul-de-sac can stop you.

However, to cultivators, the meaning of a dead end is not those walls, but the people who use the terrain to intercept you. ””

Xiao Qidao nodded. Although he didn't understand it very well, he knew that he had to remember what his big brother An Zhe said.

The three of them ate as they walked, seemingly aimlessly.

When they reached the East Ninth Avenue, An Zaidao said to Xiao Qidao, ””Let Big Brother Fatty take you shopping. Brother An Zeng wants to meet a friend and will be looking for you in a while.””

Xiao Qidao nodded. ””Then hurry up and come.””

Skinny Du held Xiao Qidao's hand and pointed to a three story building in front of them. ””I'll take you there to play.””

As soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked in the b.u.t.t by An Zhe.

Skinny Du laughed embarra.s.sedly. ””What a joke … Just a joke.””

He quickly left with Little Seven. When he pa.s.sed by the building, Little Seven looked at the plaque: ””Yi Hong Lou.””

An Chou smiled at the way Du ran away awkwardly. Then he turned around and walked into the restaurant opposite Yi Hong Lou.

This restaurant was called the Drunk Immortal Restaurant. Many places had such a name. Most of the time, it was just a coincidence because many people thought that the Drunken Immortal Restaurant had a good name.

On the window seat on the second floor, a young n.o.ble Rise to the Clouds sat waiting for an argument.

””Good skin.””

Anjou sat down and smiled.

That young master was Zhong Jiuge, a person who combined both beauty and trickery.

Zhong Jiuge could only reveal some of his true personality when he was in front of An Zaiyue.

To be honest, he seemed to have gained a lot of new insights about deception after going to the Da Xi city.

To the people of the Thousand Gates, the most basic requirement was to act as they please.

This was only the initial stage, and at the advanced stage, it would be... 'Whatever you pretend to be' would be 'what you pretend to be'.

””No matter how good your skin is, you still have to take care of it.””

Zhong Jiuge took out a round and flat metal box and said, ””This is the skincare lotion of the Treasure Hall, do you want it?””

””I'll give you a box.””

””You must be taking other people's benefits.””

Zhong Jiuge solemnly said, ””How can I ask for the benefits? I'll be responsible for promoting their things. They will give me some free items and also get a half price coupon.””

””My biggest dream is to open a shop one day, and all the ladies in the city will come here to buy things.””

An Zhan fished out a silver note from his sleeve. ””Take it away.””

Zhong Jiuge said, ””You're making it hard for me to accept you. How can I have you as the boss? You can be content with whatever your subordinates say. Do you think that's true?””

””Is that true?””

Then he put the notes away. ””But I like it.””

He looked at Anjou and said, ””But then, do you know why I want to open a shop like that?””

””Because of you rogue.””

Zhong Jiuge said righteously, ””Don't slander a pure person's dreams … how did the empress dowager collect the information?””

It was a brothel.

The empress dowager's forces controlled all of the brothels in the capital. Which of the martial artists and officials didn't go to the brothels?

In the soft and fragrant atmosphere, no one knew how to blurt out what they shouldn't have said.

””There's also the Gao Family …””

Zhong Jiuge said, ””It's been so many years since the Gao Clan last had anyone enter the throne. According to the rules, no matter how great the military exploits of the older generation are, they should have long since been sidelined.””

However, up until now, the Gao Family's old lady was still able to make those people in the government officials stay in awe … It wasn't just because the Gao Family's ancestors had given birth to a founder of the nation.

””The officials of Great Yan are not clean, especially the officials. Which one of them doesn't have a shameful income?””

””But the Great Swallow couldn't help gambling, which gave the officials a reasonable source of property.

Those officials took bribes, then went to the casino, and with a few casual bets, they could win a large sum of money back.

Of course, the money would still be returned to the Gao Family's casino. This was money laundering.

The Gao Family holds the secrets of almost all the officials. Do you think that the old lady of the Gao Family would not be virtuous and prestigious? ””

””However!””

Zhong Jiuge laughed, ””But the brothels and casinos are still far from my shop.””

Who was I facing in my shop?

””The wives of the dignitaries, they know more secrets than ordinary guests of the martial arts world.””

An Xuan said, ””A talent like you is truly rare.””
