Lan XiChen said, "Sect Master Jin... Can you explain the whole story?"
Jin Guangyao said nothing, the knuckles of his fingers were faintly white.
Wei WuXian said, "It seems that Sect Master Jin refuses to speak."
As soon as he raised his hand, a naked female corpse immediately appeared under his hand. Wei Wuxian put his hand on top of her dark head and said, "But, if you don't tell me, I won't know?"
As soon as they empathized, before opening his eyes, Wei Wuxian found himself surrounded by a tangy scent of fat powder, and a coquettish voice came out of his mouth: "... She? She wants to marry, and meets that When he was a man, she was in her twenties, and she was not too young. She would definitely not be popular in a few years, so she was scolded and insisted on giving birth to a son, or just trying to get away. The man wants it."
He opened his eyes, and what he saw in front of him was a magnificent hall, very spacious. There were more than a dozen large round tables in the hall, and each round table was seated with several drinkers and a few handsome people. Some women bare their fragrant shoulders, some have scattered clouds on their temples, some sit on the lap of a drinker, and some are feeding wine to others, all of which are sweet and greasy and drunk.
You can tell where it is at a glance.
Wei WuXian thought, "The one who was burned to death in this Guanyin Temple turned out to be a happy woman. No wonder these spirits are naked. I'm afraid they are all firework girls and whore clients."
The drinker beside him smiled and said, "The son is always his own, doesn't he want that man?"
The woman said: "She said that the man is a big man in a family of cultivators, then there must be many sons in his family. It's not uncommon to have too many things. How can you pay attention to this outside? If you come to pick her up, of course, you can only raise it yourself, and it will last for fourteen years."
Several drinkers said: "Big man? Is there really such a thing?"
The woman said, "Oh, why am I lying to you? Her son is doing errands with us right now. Well, that's the one." The woman twisted her waist and beckoned to a boy with a tray: "Xiao Meng! Come here!"
The boy really came over and said, "Sister Anxin, what's the matter?"
In an instant, Wei Wuxian understood everything.
A group of drinkers looked at Meng Yao with scrutiny eyes, and Meng Yao asked again, "Is there something wrong?" An Xin smiled and said, "Xiao Meng, have you learned those things yourself recently?"
Meng Yao was startled and said, "What?"
An Xin said: "It's what your mother told you to learn, such as calligraphy and painting, etiquette, swordsmanship and mind art... How have you learned?"
Before the words fell, the drinkers laughed, as if they thought it was extremely funny. An Xin turned her head and said: "Don't laugh, what I said is true, his mother raised him as the son of a rich family, taught him to read and write, bought a lot of swordsmanship secrets, and gave him as a gift. go to school."
The drinker said in surprise: "Send him to school? Did I hear it right?"
An Xin said: "No! Xiao Meng, tell these young masters, have you been to the library?"
The drinker said: "Is he still going now?"
An Xin said: "I won't go, I came back after a few days, and I wouldn't say anything. Xiao Meng, do you like studying or don't like it there?"
Meng Yao didn't speak, An Xin smiled and poked a bright red index finger on Meng Yao's forehead, saying, "Little guy, are you upset?"
She poked hard, and Meng Yao's forehead was poked with a faint red mark, like the afterimage of cinnabar. He touched his forehead and said, "No..."
An Xin waved her hand and said, "It's alright, alright, it's alright, let's go." Meng Yao turned around and walked a few steps. She picked up another thing from the table and coaxed, "Here, I'll give you a fruit to eat."
When Meng Yao turned around, the green fruit hit his chest and fell to the ground and rolled away. An Xin said angrily: "Why are you so stagnant, you can't even catch a single fruit. Pick it up quickly, don't waste it."
Meng Yao pulled the corner of her mouth. He should have been fourteen years old, but I don't know if it was because of his extra thinness. He looked only twelve or thirteen years old. This kind of smile appeared on his face, which made people extremely uncomfortable.
He slowly bent over, picked up the fruit, wiped it on the placket, and smiled even deeper: "Thank you, Sister Anxin."
An Xin said: "You're welcome. Go and work hard."
Meng Yao said, "Call me again if you have anything."
After he left, a drinker said, "If my son is in a place like this, I will take him back no matter what."
Another person said: "His father is really a big man in the Xiuxian family? It should be easy to redeem a firework woman and give her a sum of money to support her child? It's just a little effort."
An Xin said: "How can this woman really listen to all of her words? She believed more than half of it, and the big man didn't say it herself. I see, maybe it's a wealthy businessman with a lot of money, she exaggerated it several times..."
At this moment, a scream came, there was the sound of cups and plates breaking on the second floor, and a Yaoqin rolled and flew out, landing in the center of the hall. The merry-go-round screamed in terror. An Xin also almost fell, screaming: "What happened!"
Meng Yao shouted, "Auntie!"
An Xin looked up and saw a big man grabbing a woman's hair and dragging her out of a room. An Xin grabbed the drinker beside her, and said in a tone of excitement or nervousness, "She's here again!"
Meng Yao rushed upstairs. The woman was clutching her scalp and desperately pulling her clothes over her shoulders. When she saw Meng Yao running over, she hurriedly said, "I told you not to go upstairs! Go down! Don't go down!"
Meng Yao went to break the client's hand, was kicked in the lower abdomen, and Gu Lulu rolled downstairs, provoking exclamations.
This is the third time Wei Wuxian has seen him being kicked and rolled down the stairs.
The woman yelled "Ah!", and was immediately dragged by the guest's hair again, dragged downstairs, stripped her clothes, threw it on the street, spat on her naked body, and scolded: "Ugly What a weird thing to do, the old prostitute still treats herself as a fresh item!"
The woman crouched down in the middle of the street in panic, not daring to get up, as long as she moved, she would be seen completely. The pedestrians on the street were surprised and excited, wanting to leave, wanting to stay or not, poking and poking, their eyes shining. The gate of the prostitute was also full of women inside, chuckling and laughing, just like An Xin, gloating over the misfortune to tell the guests what happened to the embarrassed old woman. Only one girl turned around and went out the door, taking off the light gauze on her body, and wrapping her full white breasts in a bright red dress, her waist was extremely slender and very eye-catching, and everyone else rushed to see her. The girl spat and scolded: "Look at it, look at your mother! The old lady is also seen by you? Look at the one who wants to receive money, give the money! Come and give the money!"
As she scolded, she reached out and asked for money from people watching from all directions. The crowd dispersed a little. She threw the gauze she took off at the woman, and staggered into the lobby while wrapping her. Who cares? You have to suffer, and have a good memory!"
Wei WuXian thought, "This woman looks a little familiar, where did you see it?"
The woman whispered: "Ayao, Ayao..."
Meng Yao was kicked by that kick for a while, but she couldn't help herself. She lay on the ground and couldn't get up. The girl pulled one in one hand, pulled the mother and son up and left. A drinker beside An Xin said, "Who is that beauty?"
An Xin spat out two pieces of melon seed shells, and said, "He's a famous pungent guy, very scary."
One person said disappointedly: "This is Meng Shi, the talented fireworks girl back then? How did it become like this?"
An Xin changed her smile again and said, "That's it. She insists on having a child, can a woman still see a child in her lifetime? If it wasn't for the so-called 'talented girl' fame in the past, I'm afraid that no one would be willing to appreciate it. A few. I'd say it's because of the bad things she read."
A drinker said: "That's it. People who have some books on them always have such an inexplicable lofty spirit, and they are always reluctant to give up that little thought."
An Xin said: "If she can support herself with the books she reads, then I won't say anything, it's not just a gimmick to attract clients. I say it's ugly, everyone is a prostitute, and you read some books to be more noble? Qing Gao What's the point? Not only do people outside look down on her, but do other sisters like her like her? The guests who come to this kind of place occasionally see a teenage girl who is reserved and dignified, which is considered fresh and chic. What does it mean to ask people to spend money to see a person with an old pearl yellow? She has long been gone, everyone knows, but she can't see clearly..."
At this time, someone patted Anxin behind her, and when Anxin turned her head, she saw the girl standing behind her, raised her hand and slapped her in the face.
With a "pop", An Xin received a slap in the face, stayed for a moment, and burst into anger: "Bitch!!!"
The girl said: "Bitch!!! Your mouth is broken all day long, you have nothing else to do with that tongue?!"
An Xin screamed, "It's none of your business what I say!"
The two girls scuffled in the lobby on the first floor, used their fingernails and teeth together, tore each other's hair and cursed. "Sooner or later you will scratch your face" and "no one will ask for money". The words were vulgar. Many clients came to persuade them to fight, saying: "Sisi! Stop fighting!"
Sisi
Wei Wuxian finally remembered why he felt familiar when he looked at the girl's face. If seven or eight knife marks were added to this face, wouldn't it be the woman Sisi who came to Lotus Pier to inform her? !
Suddenly, he felt a scorching wave coming towards him, and the entire lobby was instantly submerged in a sea of crimson fire. Wei Wuxian quickly pulled himself out of empathy!
Opening his eyes, Lan Wangji said, "How?"
Lan XiChen also said, "Young Master Wei, what did you see?"
Wei WuXian took a breath, calmed his mind a little, and said, "I guess this Guanyin Temple is where Sect Master Jin grew up."
Jin Guangyao remained calm. Jiang Cheng said, "Where did he grow up? Wasn't he..." He was about to say, didn't he grow up in Goulan, but he suddenly understood, and said, "This Guanyin Temple used to be Goulan Courtyard, and he set it on fire. This place was transformed into a Guanyin Temple!"
Lan XiChen said, "You really set the fire?"
Jin Guangyao said, "Yes."
Jiang Cheng sneered, "You admit it happily."
Jin Guangyao said, "So far, doing more and doing less is the same, is there any difference?"
After a moment of silence, Lan XiChen said, "Are you trying to erase the traces?"
Although many people know that Lian Fangzun grew up in Goulan when he was young, but for so many years, most people do not know which Goulan he was born in, which is strange to think about. Everyone knew that Lian Fangzun must have deliberately manipulated it behind his back, but I am afraid that few people would have expected that he would burn the place where he was born and grew up with a fire.
Jin Guangyao said, "Not all."
Lan XiChen sighed and did not continue. Jin Guangyao said, "Don't you ask me why?"
Lan XiChen shook his head, and after a long while, he asked nonchalantly, "It's not that I didn't know what you did in the past, but I believed that you did it for a reason."
He added: "But, you have gone too far. And I... I don't know if I should believe it or not."
There was deep weariness and disappointment in his tone.
There was thunder and rain outside the temple, and wind leaked from the crack of the temple gate. Amidst the shrill whistling sound, Jin Guangyao suddenly knelt to the ground.
Everyone was startled. Wei Wuxian, who had just taken the sword from his waist, was also startled when he saw Jin Guangyao weakly saying, "Second brother, I was wrong."
"..." Hearing this, Wei Wuxian felt embarrassed for him, and couldn't help but say, "Um, what, don't say anything, just do it well. Shall we just do it?"
This person's face changes as soon as he changes his face, and his legs kneel when he says he kneels. There is no dignity and domineering at all. An unspeakable expression also appeared on Lan XiChen's face. Jin Guangyao took it and said, "Second brother, you and I have been together for many years, no matter what you say, you know how I treat you. I have no intention of becoming the Immortal Governor, and the Yin Tiger Talisman has been completely destroyed. If you want to cross Dongying far away, you will never come back in this life. For the sake of these, you can let me live."
To cross Dongying far away, to put it bluntly, is to escape. It sounds quite humiliating, but Jin Guangyao is known for being smooth and changeable, rather than bending, and he can be soft and never confront hard. It is acceptable for the Lanling Jin Sect to crush one family, two families, three families and four families by force, but if all the families, big and small, join forces to attack him, and repeat the mistakes of the Qishan Wen Sect, it is only a matter of time. Rather than delaying until then, it is better to evacuate now, avoid the limelight first, preserve strength, and maybe there will be a chance to make a comeback and make a comeback in the future.
Wei WuXian said, "Sect Master Jin, you said the Yin Tiger Talisman has been completely destroyed, can you take it out for me to take a look at?"
Jin Guangyao said, "Young Master Wei, after all, the restored piece is not the original body, and the number of times it can be used is limited. It has been completely abolished. Besides, you know how much ill-will such a thing is. You know best. Do you think I will still take the waste products that will bring the disaster of blood light with me?"
Wei WuXian said, "I don't know about that. Maybe you can find another Xue Yang?"
Jin Guangyao said, "Second brother, everything I said is true."
His words are sincere and sincere, and since he captured Lan Xichen, he has always treated each other with courtesy, at this moment, Lan Xichen really couldn't turn his face right away, he could only sigh: "Sect Master Jin, you are determined to go to the mass grave. When I was planning such a big chaos, I said, 'Second Brother' doesn't need to be called again."
Jin Guangyao said, "I was obsessed with my mind about the mass grave this time, and it was a big mistake, but I have no way out."
Lan XiChen said, "What do you mean there is no way out?"
Lan Wangji frowned slightly and said coldly, "Brother, don't talk to him."
Wei WuXian also reminded, "Sect Master Lan, remember how you reminded Sect Master Jiang? Don't talk to him too much."
Lan XiChen also knew how powerful Jin GuangYao opened his mouth. But as soon as he heard that he might have an inside story, he couldn't help but want to hear it. Jin Guangyao also pinpointed him on this point.
"I got a letter," he whispered.
