There was a storm outside the Peony Tower, but there was a vivid and fragrant inside the building.

The gorgeous dance, melodious singing and beautiful beauty cannot help but indulge in it.

Even Zhou Ze, the visitor who was originally going to find out the news, was completely selfless. Even Lu Jiu didn't notice it when he returned. He kept applauding and whistling in the direction of the stage, twisting his butt in a very angrily way. Those who didn't know thought he was the one who was the one who was a performer.

It’s true that there are indeed a few guests nearby staring at Mr. Zhou’s buttocks.

"Zhou Ze, I suddenly remembered that there was something to deal with at home, so I'm afraid I have to leave first. You'll have fun here."

He patted Zhou Ze on the shoulder and originally thought about whether to find a suitable excuse to escape. Lu Jiu said bluntly.

"Ah? Oh... Then be careful on your way back, see you tomorrow!"

As soon as he heard it, he knew it was a perfunctory answer. Zhou Ze had no intention of asking Lu Jiu why he was in a hurry to go back. He didn't even look back, and his eyes were almost flying to the courtesan.

Lu Jiu didn't care either. While everyone was paying attention to the singing and dancing performance, hello to the servant at the door and left the Peony Tower smoothly.

As soon as I left the door, my thin robe was blown away and became "close-fitting" clothes. The heating brought out of the building was instantly blown away by the cold wind at night.

If you were an ordinary person, you would definitely be trembling at this time. If you get some rain on the way back, you might not catch a cold the next day. The man who was wearing a coat next to you was still squishing behind the pillar and kept sneezing is the best example.

But for Lu Jiu now, it is not much different from the ordinary night wind. He opens his umbrella and walks into the rain quickly.

......

There is always a time when singing and dancing performances end. After showing off the charming figures of the beautiful people, the next thing is the key point.

The madam looked at the wealthy businessmen and famous young men on the second floor who were eager to try. They came here not only for the few glasses of wine in the private room, but naturally they valued the opportunity to have a spring night with the beautiful girls in the Peony Building.

Worth a thousand gold!

"Mom, I haven't had a good sleep these days and I feel a little uncomfortable, I'm afraid I can't pick up customers."

He took the silk squid handed over by the maid and wiped the thin sweat from his temples. Yin Yue didn't look at the guests below, but just turned around and said to the madam.

Different from the names of the madams by other girls in Mudanlou, the relationship between Yinyue and the madam is obviously closer.

This is indeed the case.

If it were someone else, he would never dare to ask for a rest when making money.

"It's all the guy who should kill Thousand Swords. The people we invited these two nights have aroused you in order to catch it?"

Holding Yin Yue's arm with one hand, the madam patted her back with great distress. This money tree is the biggest capital of Peony Tower in Qingding City. She can't do anything if she has any trouble!

"I'll go back first."

His eyes, wearing pink eyeshadow, were a little darker, and Yin Yue didn't say much.

As the courtesan of the Peony Building, Yin Yue undoubtedly has a clear classification of the ranks between other girls. The third floor is where the beautiful people live, and she lives alone in the loft on a higher floor.

Go up along the wooden staircase with lanterns on both sides, and the maid next to him went forward to open the door.

"ah!"

The maid on the right hand saw the situation inside the house, suddenly her face turned pale and screamed.

I saw that the window of the viewing balcony on the right side of the room was also open. The rain had wet the dressing table below, and the velvet blankets on the floor were also scattered.

"I remember clearly closing the window before leaving..."

"Miss, it's my servant who is negligent, so I ask you for forgiveness."

The maid on the other side saw the mess in the room and immediately pulled the whispering companion beside her and knelt on the ground.

You should know that the dressing table and velvet blanket are all good things with dozens of silver dollars. If they are ruined by the wind and rain because of them, they can’t even afford to sell them!

"Hurry up and sort it out, no one can do this."

Yin Yue didn't seem to blame them, she just stared at the window and was stunned.

The master did not blame him, and the two little maids were overjoyed and hurried into the house to clean.

Because I only opened half a window, the rain didn't spill much, and it didn't take long to look brand new again.

"Don't pull the curtains, just open them like this. I'm a little tired. There's nothing wrong, so don't come in."

He stopped the maid from closing the window, and Yin Yue, who had already changed into a loose robe, leaned on the soft recliner, waved her hand to signal them to retreat.

"By the way, the gramophone is turned on, and I like to rest while listening to the music."

"Yes, Miss."

Push the curtains to both sides, showing a floor-to-ceiling windowsill nearly three meters wide.

The exquisite phonograph that was half a person tall was activated, and the record slowly rotated, and melodious music sounded when the golden speaker was neutral.

After doing all this, the two maids bowed carefully and walked out, closed the door, and did not walk far away. They moved a small stool to sit next to the bell hanging by the stairs outside the door.

This bell is connected to a mechanical device in the house. If Yin Yue is summoned, they can know immediately by pressing the button.

At this time, Yin Yue had already stood up from the recliner in the attic, her expression no longer as calm as before. Instead, she raised her long skirt and walked around the house in a panic.

I opened the wardrobe and looked at the bed, and kept muttering some weird words: "I was not good before, please don't hide from me anymore... If this continues, my mother will definitely find someone more powerful to come. Even if I can't protect you..."

The sound of wind and rain outside the window was still vaguely heard by the music played by the phonograph through the glass. Apart from that, there was no other sound in the house.

Yin Yue, who had never received a response, pursed her lips tightly, and returned to the edge of the bed as if she had made up some determination, and dragged a locked wooden box from the bottom of the bed.

Unlock and remove a small bowl, two light gray candles and a bamboo tube from the wooden box.

First, I carefully lifted the bamboo tube lid, poured the dark red blood contained in it into the bowl and plate, and then took out the fire stick from the bedside table and lit the two candles. What was lit was not an orange flame, but two balls of dark blue phosphorescence!

Putting all these things on the wooden stool on the side of the room against the wall, Yin Yuefu took out a knife, knelt in front of the stool, cut a hole in his fingertips, dripped his own blood into the bowl and plate, then took out a medicine bag the size of a fingernail from the bedside table, looked around and quickly poured the powder into it.

After doing all this, he didn't get up, but knelt down and retreated one meter, lying on his upper body to the ground, kowtowed three times before it was over.

Returning to the bed, turning off the gas lights on the roof, Yin Yue lay in the bedding, wrapped her whole body tightly, and looking sideways at the exposed fence outside the balcony window.

In the huge attic, only two balls of phosphorescence were left swaying in the dark.
Chapter completed!
