I don't want to be a concubine when I was reincarnated in the ancient neon

"Why are you following me?" Xi Wu asked directly.

She didn't have a kind attitude and a gentle tone just because the other party looked pitiful.

Having been in and out of the rivers and lakes so much... At that time, Xiwu had already cultivated a heart of stone...at least on the surface.

The beggar walked towards Xiwu with his head down, and stopped two meters in front of her, waving his hands and babbling, as if he wanted to express something.

Xiwu looked at him suspiciously, and after a few seconds, he asked tentatively, "You mean, do you know where there is an available hotel?"

The beggar nodded excitedly.

Xi Wu stared at him for a long time, raised his wrist, stretched his fingers into the veil, stroked his hair, and said, "Lead the way."

The beggar nodded happily, and began to lead the way for Xiwu.

Xi Wu followed behind him, crossing five main streets, passing through more than a dozen small streets, turning left and right, Xi Wu didn't know where she was taken.

However, she found that the other party seemed to be avoiding the alleys on purpose, and took the main roads such as streets, because she judged that the other party should not have any malicious intentions.

Finally, the beggar stopped on the side of a small street, stretched out his thin fingers, and pointed to a hotel called "Yuzu House" across the street.

The hotel does not look luxurious from the outside, but it is clean and tidy.

"Is this right here?" Xiwu asked.

The beggar nodded.

"Thanks, this is the reward." She took out a small gold coin from the money bag in her arms, thought about it, and replaced it with the smallest piece of silver in it, and handed it to him.

The beggar stared at Xi Wu's delicate white hands, startled, then turned his gaze away and shook his head to refuse.

"Here, I owe you nothing." Xiwu insisted.

As soon as the words came out, the beggar's body obviously stiffened for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal, still shaking his head, still babbling, as if he was saying that he was thanking for the roast chicken before.

"Okay, since you insist." Xi Wu took back the money.

And the beggar Zhaoxiwu nodded, disappeared into the alleyway.

Yugiri lifted the curtain at the entrance of the "Yuzu House" shop and walked in.

As soon as the footsteps stepped in, an enthusiastic voice sounded: "Guests, please come in, please come in!"

This is a young woman who looks seventeen or eighteen years old. She has an ordinary appearance, and she has the unique style of a mature woman.

Holding a sleeping baby in his arms, he stood behind the counter at the door, smiling enthusiastically at Xiwu.

Yugiri looked at the indoor scene.

In the hall of about [-] square meters, the counter is next to the door, and next to the counter is a staircase leading to the second floor. The spare space saved is all placed for eating tables. Now there are a few men drinking tea here and there.

When they saw someone coming in, they took a look at Zhao Xiwu originally, and then looked away.

"Miss Boss, is there any room left?" Xiwu asked.

The young woman looked at Xi Wu carefully, her eyes became brighter the more she looked, she nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, what kind of room does the guest want?"

"It's best to come to the room, the floor should be high, the windows should be sunny, the environment should be quiet, and the ceiling should not leak... It is best to have two beds." Xiwu said to himself, when he talked about the two beds.

She heard the subtle voice of Huazhi coming from her arms: "Xiao Xi, one bed is enough."

Although Xiwu didn't understand, she still respected Sister Hanaji's opinion.

"Change the last bed, one is enough, is there any?"

The young woman didn't wait for Xi Wu to finish, she nodded repeatedly: "There are, there is another room that meets the requirements of the guests, but the price is a bit expensive."

"Money is not a problem." Xiwu said, throwing down five taels of silver, "Is it enough?"

"Enough is enough, and there are too many." The young woman said repeatedly with a smile on her face.

"It's okay, more refunds and less compensation." Xiwu replied, and asked again, "Can I take a bath here?"

"Ah, take a shower, of course you can. In the first-class room you want as a guest, there is a room that is a bathroom." The young woman explained.

"I want to take a shower later, is that okay?" Xiwu asked.

"Okay, I'll order someone to prepare it for the guests now." After the young woman finished speaking, she called out to the back room, "Xiaoling, come down."

"Wait a minute, here we come~"

After a while, a beautiful girl of fourteen or fifteen came down the stairs. She had a round face with a bit of baby fat, and she looked very cute and charming.

But at this time her hair was a little messy, the rouge on her lips seemed to have been scratched by something, and the brown maid uniform she was wearing was also a little messy.

"Why did you come down so slowly and make the guest wait for so long. Now lead the guest to Room [-] on the third floor, and then prepare hot water to send there." The young woman ordered.

The girl named Xiao Ling nodded respectfully at the young woman, and then came to Xi Wu: "Guest, please follow me."

Xi Wu followed her up to the second floor, and saw that the structure of the building was a "concave" shaped corridor. On one side of the corridor was the door of the room, and on the other side was a fence more than one meter high.

The empty place in the middle of the "concave" shaped corridor is not a common Japanese garden, but a small piece of pomelo grove, not big, there are only a dozen pomelo trees at a glance.

"Is the guest not a local?" Xiaoling who was walking in front turned around and asked.

"How did you find out?" Xiwu was puzzled, she was clearly still wearing a gauze hat.

"Smell. The more people I come into contact with, over time, I will find that people in different places have different smells on their bodies." Xiaoling said with a confident tone.

"For example, the smell on the guest's body is not from our northern border. It should come from a place where the seasons are like spring and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant."

"...Really." Xiwu didn't know if she really smelled it, or just said polite words.

Xiaoling pondered for a while, then said: "The guest must be very beautiful!"

"Why do you say that?" Yugi asked.

"Of course it's experience. According to my many years of experience, the guests who usually wear a veiled hat either have special identities or outstanding looks, and you smell so fragrant, so I guess the guests must be very beautiful." Xiaoling road.

"It's okay." Xiwu replied softly.

Xiaoling didn't give up: "Guest, can you let me see what you look like?"

"Why?" Xiwu was puzzled.

"Just a little curiosity. I want to see what this fragrant guest looks like, can he satisfy my little wish?" Xiaoling begged, with a coquettish tone.

This is a smart girl who is very good at maximizing her own advantages.

Xiwu thought for a while, and felt that it was impossible for her to wear a veiled hat all the time, so she said, "Okay."

After speaking, she took off her veiled hat.

Volume 155: [-] No Shadow

Xiaoling was originally a compliment, and the previous conversations with Xiwu were all routines to get closer.

Before Xiwu took off her veil, she had already prepared words of praise.

But at the moment when Xiwu took off her veil, she found that the words she had prepared could not be said at all.

Because... Those words of praise are compliments to other women, but they are just blasphemy to the beauty in front of her.

After a long time, her thousands of words turned into the simplest expression: "Are you the goddess who descended from Gao Tianyuan?"

"Is it that exaggerated?" Xiwu found the other party's expression quite interesting.

Xiaoling nodded straight, and said seriously: "Yes, yes. The guest is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, and there will never be any more in the future!"

Xiwu was embarrassed by her praise, so she changed the subject and asked, "Is the proprietress down there your sister? You don't look alike at all."

"It's a sister, but not the kind of sister that the guests understand." Xiaoling was a little embarrassed.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing that Xiwu insisted on asking, Xiaoling said, "My sister and I are both husband's women. To be precise, I am my husband's concubine, and my sister is his wife."

"Is that so~" Xi Wu was stunned.

dong dong~

There was a sound of going downstairs in front of them, and Xiwu raised her eyes, just in time to collide with the other party's gaze.

This is a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in rough clothes, with a bronze complexion and well-defined features. He is not particularly handsome, but he is also good-looking.

What surprised Xiwu was the eyes of the other party. There was no youthful vigor in them, but full of vicissitudes, suppressing something, the stubble was messy, it hadn't been shaved for a long time, and the hair was long enough to reach his shoulders

The young man and Xi Wu looked at each other for a moment, then they looked away without hesitating, and passed by Xi Wu.

Seeing the young man leave, Xiaoling bowed, got up and continued to lead Xiwu upstairs.

On the way, Xiwu asked Xiaoling: "Who is that person?"

"I don't know, it's a very strange guest, taciturn, please be careful not to provoke him." Xiaoling reminded.

Yugi nodded noncommittally.

On the third floor, there are only four rooms on the entire third floor, two on the left and right, and two on the front.

Xiaoling led Xiwu to the corridor on the left, stopped in front of a barrier door, took out the key to open the door, and led Xiwu in.

As soon as you enter the door, you will find a porch. Behind the porch is the living room, which contains low tables, cushions, low shelves, etc. The living room is connected to the side room, the bedroom, and a bathroom in the innermost part.

Xiaoling entered the living room, and opened the wooden screen on the outer wall of the room, revealing the two-person wide corridor outside. At a glance, the street and pedestrians outside can be seen.

The sun was setting in the sky, dyeing the floating white clouds red, as if a raging fire had been ignited.

"Guest, are you satisfied?"

"Yes." Xiwu nodded.

"The guest rests first. The hot water will arrive in a while. If you need anything, please come downstairs and call me." Xiao Ling bowed and left after finishing speaking.

in the room.

Xi Wu took a look in the bedroom, and the ground veins in the bedroom had already been covered with a quilt. The quilt was big enough to sleep five of us, and there was a faint smell of sunlight on it.

Without outsiders, Xiwu stopped pretending and just lay on the quilt, enjoying the feeling of being at home.

wave~

A wave appeared on the surface of the Jade Entangled Talisman Sword in her arms, and the figure of the flower pheasant emerged from it.

She was dressed in a bright red dress, her waist-length hair was long, and she was stepping on the tatami mat with snow-white bare feet. The red sunset shone on her body, revealing an eerie atmosphere.

However, Huazhi looked at Xiwu, with tenderness on his pale face, came to Xiwu's side, knelt down, and put Xiwu's small head on his lap.

"Sister Huazhi, don't be like this, I'm not a child." Xiwu resisted with her mouth, but her body accepted Huazhi's knee pillow honestly.

"Xiao Xi, don't move."

Huazhi put both hands on both sides of Xiwu's head, and began to massage gently.

"Hmm~~~" Xiwu snorted comfortably.

After enjoying it for a while, Xiwu remembered something, looked up at Huazhi, and asked doubtfully, "Sister Huazhi, can you come out during the day?"

"Of course it's ok. In fact, sunshine doesn't do any harm to my sister, it's just..."

"Just?" Xiwu asked curiously.

Huazhi pursed her red lips, and said sadly: "It's just that my sister has no shadow under the light, so if she comes out during the day, it will cause panic."

"No shadow?!" Xiwu was surprised, and was about to sit up from Huazhi's lap pillow.

But it was held down by the flower pheasant.

"Is Xiao Xi afraid of such a big sister?" Huazhi's voice was a little apprehensive.

"Why would I be afraid of my sister? Isn't it a ghost, what's so scary." Xiwu said seriously, "I'm just curious, I want to see this kind of scene!"

Huazhi was stunned for a moment, then smiled softly, and let go of Xiwu.

Xiwu sat up and observed the pheasant carefully.

Sure enough, under the setting sun, the flower pheasant is obviously opaque, and it stands to reason that it will definitely form a shadow.

but none.There was no shadow left on the ground or on the walls.

"Sister Huazhi, stand here and try." Xiwu thought it was a matter of angle.

The pheasant obediently obeyed.

"Not really~, Sister Huazhi, squat down and try." Xi Wu said again.

The pheasant is like a model, and docilely obeys, but there is still no shadow.
