After traveling through the book, I conquered the male protagonist Long Aotian!

After listening to this, Gu Qingze nodded. What Song Jinnian said was not difficult to understand. Simply put, the Yaoyuan Festival is now no different from the holidays of the demon clan.

Seeing that they all understood, Song Jinnian stopped talking and smiled and changed the topic.

"Brothers, although we can't go to the flower house today, we can discuss countermeasures in advance."

"Brother Jinnian, do you have a plan?"

Chu Lingxiao looked at him with an expression that said "ask me quickly", and asked cooperatively.

"I can't talk about countermeasures, but I did learn some other information from my sister. I wanted to tell my two brothers about it that day, but they didn't seem to be very interested, so I didn't say it."

"However, the situation is different now. Now that the two brothers have decided to investigate this matter, I must share it with them so that they can prepare well."

Song Jinnian pretended to be mysterious.

"Oh? What's the news?" Seeing him like this, Gu Qingze cooperated and asked.

"Hehe, it's about how to get close to the chief courtesan."

Chu Lingxiao was a little confused when he heard this.

"Brother Jinnian, didn't you say before in the brothel that the conditions for meeting the current chief courtesan are very harsh? In addition to money, there must be other conditions..."

Chu Lingxiao seemed to have thought of something, paused, then looked at him and asked expectantly.

"Could it be that Brother Jinnian knows what the other conditions specifically refer to?"

"Hehe, of course I don't know."

Song Jinnian said with a righteous look.

"After all, our family is only half the owner of the brothel, and we can't interfere with the internal affairs. We can only collect money regularly."

Gu Qingze was not surprised by this result at all, and did not have too many other emotions. He just smiled and said.

"It seems that Brother Jinnian has other ways."

Song Jinnian blinked and said, "Brother Qingze is right. I do have other ways, but..."

Seeing his hesitation, Chu Lingxiao couldn't bear it any longer, so he patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him.

"Brother Jinnian, Qingze and I are your friends. Just say whatever you want to say. We won't blame you even if there's something wrong with what you say. It's not like you to be so shy now."

After hearing this, Song Jinnian breathed a sigh of relief. The reason why he had been delaying was because this matter might not be acceptable in the eyes of the human race.

But if you think about it carefully, Brother Qingze and Brother Lingxiao can be dogs for each other, so this should not be a problem.

"Then I'll just say it straight!"

Song Jinnian smiled and said seriously.

"Although none of the other courtesans in the brothel have seen the face of this mysterious current chief courtesan, some of them have communicated with her, and they communicated with her individually."

"We've never met, but we've communicated... Could it be that we communicated through a curtain?"

Gu Qingze put forward a conjecture of his own.

"Not bad!" Song Jinnian gave appropriate affirmation, "In the brothel, in order to encourage other courtesans to climb up and work hard, the courtesan with the best performance every month will meet the chief courtesan alone behind a curtain as a reward."

"If that's the case, we can help your sister become the best courtesan of the month, and then let your sister ask for clues about what we are going to do."

Gu Qingze thought for a moment and suggested.

"Anyway, the judging criteria for ordinary oiran shouldn't be as complicated as the chief oiran, right? It should probably be based on performance or something. If that's the case, then we can just spend money on it."

Unexpectedly, Chu Lingxiao on the side tugged at the corner of his clothes and secretly transmitted a message using spiritual power.

"Qingze, if that's the case, should we tell Song Jinnian's sister some of the information about the "Three Lives Flower"?"

"No need. Just tell Song Jinnian's sister some of the probing words, and then ask her to repeat the chief courtesan's reaction after hearing those words."

Gu Qingze thought for a moment and replied using his spiritual power.

"But if the chief courtesan on the other side knew the content of 'Three Lives Flower' and said it directly, then wouldn't Song Jinnian's sister know it too?"

"Ling Xiao, what you mean is that if Song Jinnian's sister knew about the "Sanshenghua" news, she would lie to us and say she didn't know, or deliberately fabricate false news in order to keep the news for herself..."

"Well, by then we won't know whether what Song Jinnian's sister said is true or false, and we won't be able to verify it. Isn't it all up to her to say it?"

"Well... isn't there a magic weapon or spell that can distinguish truth from lies? Wouldn't it be clear if we use it like this?"

Chu Lingxiao shook his head.

"Qingze, you are still too naive. Let me ask you, she is Song Jinnian's sister. If you use that kind of spiritual weapon in front of Song Jinnian, it means you don't trust her, or even Song Jinnian."

"Besides, the spiritual tool that can distinguish true from false words is not omnipotent. She can also hide some words to confuse us. This does not count as lying, right?"

"As for other spells that force people to tell the truth, they will damage the sanity of the person being used. With Qingze's personality, he definitely can't use them."

Seeing that he remained silent, Chu Lingxiao helplessly used his spiritual power to transmit his voice.

"I admit that I may have been judging others by my own standards, but there is no other way. The value of the Sansheng Flower is too high. Anyone who knows about it can make a lot of money by selling it, even if they don't want to revive anyone. I really don't feel comfortable revealing such a precious thing to other people."

"Ling Xiao, you are right. I didn't think it through. There are only a few people in the world who know the value of the "Three Lives Flower" and don't care about it. Even I want to get the "Three Lives Flower" to exchange for the reward I want from Fairy Bing Ling."

"So, what qualifications do I have to ask others to give up the huge benefits and instead honestly take my tiny profits? Isn't this like picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons?"

Gu Qingze actively admitted his mistake and then added a sentence.

"Also, I don't allow Ling Xiao to call himself a 'villain'. Ling Xiao is the best person in my heart. If you hadn't reminded me this time, I might have really done that."

Although it seemed that the two of them communicated a lot secretly using spiritual power, in reality it was only a moment.

Moreover, Gu Qingze looked like he was thinking with his head down, so naturally he would not arouse Song Jinnian's suspicion.

After thinking it over, Gu Qingze was about to withdraw his previous proposal, but he didn't expect that Song Jinnian had thought about it first and rejected the proposal.

"No, my sister can't be involved in this matter!"

Perhaps feeling that his tone was a little excited, Song Jinnian calmed down and explained.

"My sister is just an ordinary monster. We don't know if there are any deeper secrets in the brothel. If she is involved, my sister will have no ability to protect herself."

"So, even if you are only asking about matters related to the sect mission of my two brothers, I don't want my sister to get involved. After all, there is an old saying among you humans: don't be afraid of ten thousand but be prepared for the unexpected. What if your mission is related to the secrets in the brothel, and my sister hears it... So sorry, please allow me to refuse."

Gu Qingze was somewhat surprised to see Song Jinnian's resistance. He didn't expect that although he usually looked carefree, he would be so considerate of the monsters he was close to.

"It's okay. I understand Brother Jinnian. It was just a suggestion. I thought about it and felt it was inappropriate. I was thinking of rejecting my immature suggestion, but I didn't expect Brother Jinnian to speak first. It seems that we really have the same thoughts."

Gu Qingze took advantage of the situation and echoed.

"That's fine, that's fine."

Song Jinnian breathed a sigh of relief. "I was afraid that this would cause a quarrel between my brothers and me."

"How could that be? Aren't Qingze and I good friends of Jinnian's brother? Good friends will understand each other."

Chu Lingxiao smiled and suddenly changed the subject.

"However, since Brother Jinnian did not agree with involving innocent people in this matter from the beginning, why did he bring up this method? He must have other considerations, right?"

"Well, I want one of my two brothers to be the temporary courtesan, so I was so embarrassed when I said it just now."

"Hmm... "temporary courtesan"?" Chu Lingxiao asked doubtfully, "Does this mean that one of us has to dress up as a woman?"

"Hmm... about that."

Song Jinnian explained seriously.

"The reason why I said it's between the two brothers and not including me is because recommending an oiran requires an introducer, and only my identity meets this condition, so it can only be between you two."

"One of you decides to dress up as a woman, and then I'll go find the boss and tell him that I have a good talent, and then ask him to arrange an identity for one of you as an oiran."

"Don't worry, I will spend a lot of money on the brother who is dressed as a woman. This month's performance cannot be bad. He will soon become the best courtesan and be qualified to meet the chief courtesan. Then I can go find her and ask her questions."

"After that, I will pretend to be a stranger and redeem my brother. There will be no danger at all."

"How is it? Is my method very simple?"

Song Jinnian looked at them as if asking for praise.

Chu Lingxiao accepted it well and nodded. Although his ideas and concerns were different from Song Jinnian's, he achieved his goal surprisingly harmoniously.

Song Jinnian didn't know about the "San Sheng Hua" incident. Even if he took the initiative to dress up as a woman, he would definitely not agree.

However, he was worried about asking other courtesans to pay him to question them. After much thought, he decided that it would be most appropriate for one of him and Qingze to go alone to find the chief courtesan to obtain information.

The question now is who between him and Qingze will be the "temporary oiran".

When Chu Lingxiao thought of this, he subconsciously looked at Gu Qingze, and their eyes met tacitly. It seemed that they both felt that the other was suitable.

"Brother Jinnian, why don't you tell me who is more suitable to play the role of the oiran, me or Qingze?"

After hearing this, Gu Qingze nodded. He had already dressed up as a woman once in the illusion (although he was forced to do so), but this time it should be Ling Xiao's turn.

However, Ling Xiao would definitely not accept this, so it would be better to give this right to Song Jinnian.

"Um...."

Song Jinnian seemed a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, brother Jinnian, follow your heart and choose the one you think is suitable for dressing up as a woman. We will have no objection no matter what you choose."

Chu Lingxiao said with a smile.

".....Then let's go with Brother Qingze."

Song Jinnian thought for a moment and said.

When Gu Qingze heard this, he was struck by lightning and looked like he had seen a ghost.

Song Jinnian looked at him and explained.

"Because Brother Qingze is very handsome. When I first saw Brother Qingze, I inexplicably saw him as a girl. If Brother Qingze hadn't been wearing men's clothes, I would have almost made a mistake for him."

After hearing this, Gu Qingze felt even worse and looked at Chu Lingxiao with some grievance.

"Ling Xiao, do I...do I really look like a girl?"

Chu Lingxiao touched his head helplessly but lovingly.

"Brother Jinnian's eyesight is not very good sometimes, so don't bother with him."

"Ah? My eyesight is not good? Brother Ling Xiao, didn't you tell me to be bolder and speak my mind without hesitation?"

Song Jinnian was confused and said indignantly.

"If Qingze really doesn't want to dress up as a woman, then I'll go this time."

Chu Lingxiao couldn't bear to see him like this, so he sighed and compromised.

Unexpectedly, he was rejected by Song Jinnian who was standing beside him.

"Brother Lingxiao, it's better to let Brother Qingze go. This will reduce the chances of being exposed. After all, Brother Qingze looks more like a girl than Brother Lingxiao."

"Don't we have the Transfiguration Pill? Why do we need to just use our original appearance? Using the Transfiguration Pill will not only allow us to disguise ourselves better, but will also prevent other monsters from knowing our true appearance. Even if our true identity is exposed and we are involved in a conspiracy, we can still ensure our own safety."

Chu Lingxiao suggested.

"Oh, that's right. Brother Ling Xiao is so smart. Why didn't I think of this?"

Song Jinnian suddenly understood and looked at him with admiration.

"But, to become an oiran, isn't there a body test? Even if you look like a girl, it's useless, right?"

Gu Qingze thought for a moment and asked.

He recalled that in the TV dramas he had watched before, they all had to undergo a physical examination. Of course, the physical examination was not to see if you were a man dressed as a woman, after all, being an oiran was not an easy job. It was to see if you were a virgin and what your quality was like so that they could clearly mark your price.

Anyway, women are treated as "commodities" and measured, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

"Brothers, please rest assured. I have a special spiritual weapon that can fool them."

Seeing that he was asking about this matter, Song Jinnian smiled and kept it a secret.
