Eternal East Flow [Comprehensive Martial Arts]

"30 taels? My face is worth 30 taels of silver? Anyway, it should be 300 taels."

Kou Zhong quickly realized that he was thick-skinned enough not to be afraid of being molested, let alone being molested by a beautiful woman. "Beauty, I asked you to borrow these 30 taels, and I will definitely return them to you with interest in the future. What do you call them?"

"Le Yuancen." Le Yuancen said, glancing at the soy milk in his hand.Once upon a time, a monk borrowed 30 taels of silver from her at the breakfast stall. They made a bowl of soy milk together.

The farther and longer a person travels in his life, the more indifferent his feelings will become, and fewer and fewer people can enter the bottom of his heart, and those amazing and brilliant past events will not fade in memory.

Le Yuancen is willing to make new friends, but it's okay for her to miss old friends occasionally.

"Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling. As the saying goes, it's not difficult to repay what you have borrowed. What are you going to use to repay the 30 taels of silver? If you can't think of a good idea, how about being my guard during this period of time, how about working to pay off the debt?"

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at each other, they were gangsters in Yangzhou city, doing odd jobs to make ends meet, because they were young and had strength but no martial arts foundation.

Because they were accidentally involved in a gang war for territory before, both of them suffered flesh and blood, but because they were external thugs, they would not get real care. It is only when a black-hearted boss like Shi Hai hides in hiding to avoid debts.

"Okay." Xu Ziling agreed first, he didn't know advanced martial arts, but just because of Le Yuancen's throwing of the gold cake just now, he knew that her martial arts were better than theirs, so it should be to let them run errands.

It doesn't matter who you work for in Yangzhou city.Last night, 50 taels of gold were stolen from Shenglong Casino. This amount of money is nothing to the casino, but the manager of the casino lost his temper.Now, they owed Le Yuancen 30 taels of silver, and they had to pay off the debt, so why didn't they agree.

Le Yuancen nodded slightly to Xu Ziling, then looked at Kou Zhong who was still thinking, "Do you have any concerns, Young Master Zhong?"

When Kou Zhong heard this slightly teasing address, it was really thanks to his thick skin that he didn't blush.He and Xu Ziling usually call each other Zhongshao and Lingshao. He firmly believes that one day he will become Yangzhou Ssangyong, but he also understands that one day is far away, but the more distant, the more he hopes that this day will come.

"Why would I have any concerns? Being able to protect a beauty is a dream job."

Xu Ziling glanced at Kou Zhong, he really couldn't stop his habit of smooth talk.

"Okay, I'm here to help you two." Le Yuancen waved his hands with a smile after hearing the words, "Come and have breakfast together. Only when you are full can you work hard. Since I invite you to be guards, I will pack a simple meal , and if you want to eat delicacies from mountains and seas, you have to hunt them yourself.”

Don't be pretentious when you are hungry, not to mention Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling are not coy people.

After this full meal, Le Yuancen really took the two of them for a stroll around Yangzhou City. She walked without haste and without stopping, but it hurt the two people around her.

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling kept talking about the current customs and gossip along the way, and they also had to answer various questions from Le Yuancen. The work of repaying the debt seemed easy but it was really not easy to do.

It is the time of the Sui Dynasty, and Yang Guang has been on the throne for more than ten years. The Grand Canal that runs through the north and the south has already been open to boats, and it can go directly from Yangzhou to Luoyang.

Because Yangzhou is located along the canal, goods shipped to the south inevitably have to pass through here by water. In just a few years, it has changed into a bustling city, with a lot of people during the day and endless singing and dancing at night.

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling talked a lot, but they only had access to so many people and things, it was difficult to know the changes outside Yangzhou City, let alone the distribution of forces in Jianghu and Wulin.

The two of them mentioned at most the four big clans—the Yuwen clan, the Dugu clan, the Li clan, and the Song clan.

Combined with some known history, it can be inferred that this is a different world recorded in the official history.

This is not surprising at all, the way of heaven here is so extensive that it can be regarded as a world of high martial arts. There must be many interesting people in Hidden Dragons and Crouching Tigers. It is still unknown whether these people will influence the rise and fall of the dynasty.

Judging from the current situation, the day when the Sui Dynasty will be destroyed is not far away.As far as Yangzhou City is concerned, there is chaos here. There are several places in the south of the Yangtze River that are fighting, and many refugees have moved to Yangzhou City.However, the same city is two completely different worlds for the rich and the poor.

Le Yuancen has no plans to fight against the Huns. In her last life, she fought against the Huns in the north for more than two years. There was only blood in the wind and sand day and night. Those days were boring enough. Now it’s okay to help out in a fight now and then, but she doesn’t want to do it again Repeated campaigns north and south.In this life, while looking for opportunities to shatter the void, it would be nice to eat, drink, and walk around the rivers and lakes.

"I heard that someone from the Yuwen faction came to Yangzhou recently to help Yang Guang find a book, which seems to be called "The Secret of Longevity."

Kou Zhong tried his best to think about the new things that happened recently, and two large ships that he had never seen before stopped at the pier, "Lele, is there really a martial arts cheat that can make you live forever?"

"If there is, what do you want?" Le Yuancen did not deny this possibility. In this world that is very close to the Shattered Void, it is normal for there to be one or two masterpieces that can help people gain the Tao.

There is no need to look for the "Longevity Secret", because she can write such secret books.It's just that there is still some distance between attaining the Tao and breaking through the sky, sometimes one step away is heaven and earth.

Kou Zhong couldn't tell what Le Yuancen meant, she always smiled casually as if she didn't care about everything, and after a day of acquaintance, he couldn't ask her about her background, let alone her purpose in coming to Yangzhou City.

"If there is such a book, of course I want to get it to practice martial arts, and Ling Shao will also practice it together. In this way, we can better protect Lele in the future."

When Le Yuancen heard the words, he saw Xu Ziling's helpless expression, and it was difficult for Xu Ziling to deal with Kou Zhong's unreliable behavior from time to time.

However, Le Yuancen nodded seriously, "Then I will thank you first. I am a real person. Since I say thank you, I will not just talk about it. Ling Shao, you grew up in Yangzhou Governor Da, you must be familiar with brothels in Yangzhou, right? Which one do you want to go to?"

Xu Ziling blinked, this question should be asked to Kou Zhong.They lived around in Yangzhou, and they must have been to Jieliuxiang, but those who went there to work had nothing to do with entering the building for pleasure.Kou Zhong talked about going to see the world several times, but they were so shy that they might not even be able to eat meat for three meals.

"You should ask me." Kou Zhong said the names of several brothels, "Lele, are you going to invite us to play? It's a bit expensive."

Le Yuancen still looked at Xu Ziling, "Which one do you think is more suitable for the three of us?"

"Miss Le, do you want to go together too?" Xu Ziling said in his heart that he had never seen a woman go to a brothel to find sex, so he understood why he was looking for an answer.

"Huancai Pavilion is the largest brothel in Yangzhou, Shiguan is the most elegant, and the girls in Yunliang Pavilion are good at poetry and painting. I don't know the details, but no matter which one it is, it is very expensive. Miss Le, it is better to count Alright, we've been shopping all day and we should rest early."

Kou Zhong didn't refute, and asked the woman to pay to take him to have fun, after all, he wasn't so informal.

However, Le Yuancen does not accept negative opinions.Don't be afraid of running out of money, Lu Renjia swindled a fortune in the casino, and she can go to Lu Renyi, Lu Renbin, Lu Rending, Lu Ren's family can go to the Yangzhou casino in turn, and if she is caught, she will lose.And if she continues to make a few more votes, she will win a bigger bet if she gambles more, so how can she be afraid of running out of money.

At the moment, Le Yuancen plans to go to the brothel just to prevent the casino from suffering further.She is not addicted to gambling at all, and she also wants to make money with her skills, hoping to find partners like shopkeeper Zhang, Ji Bingyan, and Ru Ling.Let's sell erotic books together, and it would be great to do some serious business.

However, in order to find a good partner in the chaotic world at the end of the Sui Dynasty, that person's background must be strong enough, and more importantly, he must be pleasing to her eyes.

"Young Master Ling is right. It's time to rest when the sky is getting dark. Listen to a little song together, find someone to beat your legs and rub your shoulders, and you can relieve the fatigue of the day. The companies you mentioned sound good to me. I We still have a long time in Yangzhou, let's take our time and visit each family."

Le Yuancen first chose the most elegant shop.She is very familiar with the operation of brothels and bookstores. This kind of elegant hall is loved by literati, so there will always be a special bookstore for the pens, ink, paper and inkstones provided there, which is her first choice to find partners.

"Let's go, don't be shy. I'm a good employer, so we're in for a treat."

Thus, two rookies who had never been to a brothel were abducted into the playground in this way.

The three of them played and sang every night for several days in a row, and no matter how uncomfortable Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling felt, Le Yuancen went to the brothel and specially ordered the old bustard to receive him.Street and Liu Lane soon spread the name of Leshan, and many people knew the story that a beautiful woman in the jade age and the old bustards had to tell.

The rumors about Leshan suddenly overshadowed the rumors that Yu Wenhua went to Yangzhou to look for "Longevity".After all, Yu Wenhuaji lives in a heavily guarded mansion, so he can't easily join in the fun, but if he wants to see Leshan, he can go to the brothel to have a look.

Le Yuancen didn't care about people coming to watch. Among them, those who were deliberately looking for trouble were all dared not to come to the brothel recently. In order to distinguish them from Lu Ren's family, she no longer disguised as a man, and put the erotic The name of the family spread.

During this period, she also made several paintings, which were bought at high prices by people with good vision or stupid people with a lot of money. Unfortunately, she couldn't find a suitable partner.The forces behind the bookstores here are different, but the bookstore she likes is attached to the Yuwen faction.

It's not that if you have money, you don't make money, but after listening to some things in the museum these days, you can be sure that the relationship between Yuwen faction and Yang Guang is too close.

According to the history books, the Li Clan should win in the end. No matter what changes in the process and results, the Yuwen Clan who is too close to Sui Yang Emperor is not safe.If the Yuwen faction has been helping Emperor Sui Yang, it will always be attacked by various armies. If the Yuwen faction rebels first, it is hard to say whether it will be attacked by groups.

Le Yuancen knew that she was only selling a few erotic books, so she shouldn't have thought so far, but she was afraid that after something happened, the Yuwen clan would swallow up her money.If she wanted to choose a partner, knowing that the Yuwen clan would be in chaos, even if she chose the final winner Li clan without vulgarity, why didn't she choose the Song clan who had always been stable?

In any case, the reputation of Leshan as a beautiful woman who is good at painting has been spread, and as the canal will spread farther and farther, it may be a person of insight who will wait one day to seek painting and cooperation.

Le Yuancen was having a good time, but Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were a little dumbfounded.

The two of them did see all kinds of beauties in the brothel, but the beauties were not aimed at them. On the one hand, they had no money and were just accompanying customers. On the other hand, they might have to admit that they were not attractive enough.

This night, it started to rain again, and Le Yuancen gave the two of them a vacation.

Kou Zhong felt uncomfortable with the sudden leisure, so he took Xu Ziling to wander around the city.

The two walked casually in coir raincoats, and Kou Zhong sighed, "I'm worthless, even in the brothel, but I can't do anything good! Young Master Ling, why do you think they are all willing to serve Lele? The story I told Doesn't it sound good?"

Xu Ziling couldn't bear to say that a mountain is higher than a mountain to hurt Kou Zhong. When it comes to sweet words, Kou Zhong has to continue to study. "Young Master Zhong, maybe it's because the fate has not arrived. Someone will appreciate you. Don't worry about this kind of thing. Isn't it better to find someone who likes each other to do it?"

"I'm not like you. Life is short, enjoy yourself while you can."

As Kou Zhong said, he kicked the gravel, and he watched as the gravel hit a tree. "It's not that we have practiced the kung fu of immortality, so we can wait forever for youth. Rather than waiting for a sweetheart who doesn't know where it is, it's better to seize the great youth."

Xu Ziling shook his head, didn't say anything, followed the track of the gravel and looked up the tree, there was a black cloth bag on the branch. "There is a cloth bag on the tree. It looks quite thin. In such a deserted place, you won't keep the martial arts secrets you've been thinking about, right?"

Kou Zhong also looked at the branch, and he went under the tree and shook the trunk, and a ball of cloth bag fell down.The cloth bag was completely soaked, and it should have been placed on the tree for a while. At first glance, it really contained a book.

"It's strange, the cloth bag is soaked through, but the book isn't wet at all."

While talking, Kou Zhong took out the book, and on the cover were the words "Longevity Secret".

Seeing this, Xu Ziling quickly opened the book. The thin book was made of unknown material, and there were pictures and words that he had never seen before.

The two looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.

"Let's go, let's go back first." Kou Zhong stuffed the book into his arms without hesitation, clutching the cloth bag in his hand, "We may have hit our luck, this should be the legendary martial arts secret book."

Xu Ziling didn't persuade Kou Zhong to hide the book back, he only had one question about the martial arts secret book, "Young Master Zhong, do you know those words?"

"I..." Kou Zhong is not illiterate, but he only knows the formula of longevity on the cover, he really doesn't know the ones inside. "Then what do you say? Go to the teacher from the private school to help translate it? It is said that people from the Yuwen Clan are looking for "The Secret of Longevity". I see that the two big ships have been parked on the shore for more than half a month, but they did not find it. This was obtained by us, once the news leaks out, how can we escape?"

Kou Zhong believed that the book in his hand was the real "Secret of Longevity", because its material was unprecedented, and it could not be wetted by rain at all.

The two hurried back home as they spoke, tossing and turning that night, not knowing what to do with the book.

The next morning, when Le Yuancen saw Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling in the lobby of the inn, he slightly raised his eyebrows, "Did you meet a beautiful woman who threw herself into your arms? Look at the faces of the two of you, tired, excited and distressed. Since the girl You have already taken the initiative, so why do you want to refuse and welcome?"

"Miss Le, don't be joking." Xu Ziling took a look at the water basin before going out, feeling that he and Kou Zhong had covered it up very well, "It rained heavily last night, I was just annoyed by the sound of the rain."

Kou Zhong also nodded, he spent a whole night pondering the "Secret of Longevity" but didn't make any progress, who told him that he and Xu Ziling didn't even learn the acupoint map, so they really couldn't do anything about those seven paintings.

Le Yuancen rubbed his nose, what is 300 taels of silver here, and after more than half a month of getting along, she probably understood the characters of the two, would Xu Ziling be annoyed by the sound of rain?What's more, the two of them had an unmistakably faint faint fragrance. This kind of fragrance is not owned by ordinary spices. Although they can't identify all the ingredients, they can know that it is very precious.

"If you're not a beauty, how can you keep your fragrance? It should be because you got lucky and got something good."

"Fragrant? What kind of fragrance?" Kou Zhong looked at Xu Ziling, both of them looked confused. What they picked up were books, and they didn't smell the fragrance at all. "Lele, are you making a mistake?"

Le Yuancen just smiled, she didn't care what treasure the two got, but she didn't want them to cause unnecessary trouble to her.After all, everyone in Yangzhou city knew that they went in and out together, but with Kou Zhong's face alone, he is not a person who lives in peace.

"Smell the beauty, I have not made any mistakes about it. You must have encountered something good to get this fragrance. It doesn't matter if you don't say it. Let me remind you to pack your bags and leave now, because I am afraid that it will cause harm to you." This scent will attract pursuers. I have only rested for a few days, if I get involved in something, the two of you will not be able to pay off the debt by working as guards for a few days."
