After nightfall, the small town officially began to enter the rhythm of nightlife - Su Anran discovered that the monks in the Tianyuan Secret Realm were more playful than the monks in the Xuanjie, because there was no such thing as nightlife in the Xuanjie. Once all the monks After dark, they either meditate or read novels. The disciples of the aristocratic family may do more activities such as making humans, but the disciples of the sect will not have any other entertainment projects.
But Tianyuan Secret Realm is different.
This border town has two brothels, located at the north and south ends of the town.
There is no significant difference in the quality of the two brothels, except that the girls in the south of the city are gentler in temperament, while the girls in the north of the city are slimmer, so the customers who patronize the two brothels are different, so there is no difference between them. There were things like snatching business, so the business of the two brothels was very good - not only did these two brothels have quite authentic Xuanmen Fangzhongshu, but it was also a dual cultivation method, not the unscrupulous method of harvesting yin to replenish yang or harvesting yang. Yang complements yin, so it naturally creates a grand scene where many monks come to visit.
This was something Su Anran never expected.
So even though it was already dark at this time, the whole town seemed to come alive, showing a vitality that was completely different from that in the morning.
Sitting by the window in the room, Su Anran looked at the night view of the small town and couldn't help but think of the rumored city that never sleeps in the mysterious world.
I wonder if it is as prosperous as this small town?
"What are you thinking about?" Qingyu asked curiously.
Su Anran glanced at Qingyu.
Then he glanced at the little butcher and Song Baiye.
These people all gathered in their own rooms - forget about Song Baiye, because Su Anran only booked two Tianzi rooms this time, one for him and Song Baiye, and one for the little butcher and Qingyu. It happened to be that day The font size room has two compartments, so it is more than enough for two people to live in one room.
"If you and the little butcher don't go back to your room to rest, why did you come to me?"
"We monks don't need to rest." Qingyu rolled her eyes.
"There is a small Qi gathering array in your room!" Su Anran was a little angry, "You can't keep up with your cultivation now, and you don't go to have a good rest, so why are you fooling around here? It's been two years since you came to Tianyuan Secret Realm. , have you ever practiced seriously even once? Every day you are either running on this hilltop or strolling on that hilltop."
"It's not like you asked me not to show my face in front of the outer disciples." Qingyu said confidently, "Those people run around all over the mountains and plains all day long whenever they have free time. It's easy for me to avoid them...and, Ever since there was that person with a weird name next to Senior Sister, I can no longer show my face even to Senior Sister, so you have the nerve to blame me."
Su Anran had a headache because of the noise caused by Qingyu.
But these were all arranged by him, so facing such a confident Qingyu, Su Anran really couldn't say anything.
"I'll change the script for you when I get back." Su Anran snorted.
Qingyu thought for a while, then her expression suddenly changed, and she said anxiously: "You are so eager to rush me and the little butcher back to the room, are you planning to go out and do something bad?!"
The little butcher, who was originally a little drowsy, raised his head in an instant and stared directly at Su Anran.
"Didn't you say you were sleepy?" Song Baiye looked at the little butcher's actions with some confusion.
"If my father and the others talk about this topic, then I won't be sleepy anymore." The little butcher lowered his voice, and then said casually, "You speak in a lower voice, so as not to attract my father's attention."
"That's impossible." Song Baiye said with a proud face, "I have set up a mysterious realm. Unless dad also enters my mysterious realm, they will not be able to hear us no matter what we say here."
The little butcher frowned and said, "That's my daddy."
"It's also mine." Song Baiye said, "As you said before, as long as I find ten flying swords for you, he can be my father."
"But you didn't find it for me!" the little butcher said angrily.
"Dad asked me to give him the flying sword." Song Baiye argued, "Dad also specifically told me that no matter what you say, I can't give you the flying sword."
The little butcher was angry.
"Humph! Anyway, my father is my father, not your father! Besides, my mother will definitely not recognize you!"
"Then I will find ten more flying swords to give to my mother."
"My mother doesn't want flying swords!"
"Then what does mother want?" Song Baiye asked.
"My mother..." The little butcher was stunned for a moment, then realized, "Why should I tell you?"
The effect of the strange realm is indeed good. At least when the little butcher and Song Baiye argued, Su Anran and Qingyu did not hear it.
At this time, Su Anran looked at the serious expression on Qingyu's face and knew that this idiot had already thought wrong.
He rarely blushed, and then said: "What are you thinking about? What do you mean I plan to go out and do bad things."
"Why did you send us away if you don't do bad things!" Qingyu snorted, "My grandma said that men are all bad things who only mean what they say."
Speaking of this, Qingyu didn't know what she thought of, and her face turned slightly red.
Originally, Qingyu was very charming and enchanting, especially when she really wanted to show off her charm, her sense of charm was unforgettable. So at this time, she showed some true feelings, and her whole body began to exude a very unique aura.
Su Anran was stunned by the temptation.
Fortunately, Qingyu's attention was not on Su Anran at this time, and Su Anran was also a person who had experienced the influence of modern society, so he quickly came to his senses, coughed slightly, turned his head, and continued to look at
The night scene outside the window. But only he knew that the heat in his heart at this time did not calm down so easily, so that he even had to circulate his true energy continuously in his body, so that he could barely calm down.
"Although these Tianzihao rooms are equipped with a small Qi gathering array, the amount of spiritual energy that can actually be gathered is not much. A day of cultivation here may only be equivalent to a few extra hours of cultivation outside.
, so the so-called Tianzihaofang Qi Gathering Formation is just a gimmick.
." Su Anran finally explained, "Don't look at the two compartments in this huge room. This is not the conscience of the owner of this inn, but one of his business methods, because in this way, even if there are people
He found that the Qi Gathering Formation here was not very effective, so he had an excuse to refuse."
"Isn't this a scam?" Qingyu muttered.
"If you really go to him to argue like this, he will have a lot of words to talk you out of." Su Anran shook his head, "He is not trying to trick anyone. The Qi Gathering Formation does exist, and the effect is indeed there, but it is not that obvious.
That's all, and the owner of this inn is also very smart. He has never said what kind of effect their Tianzihao Room Qi Gathering Formation will have. So if you really go to him to argue, you will suffer in the end.
Believe it or not?"
"The hearts of human beings are so dark."
"But this innkeeper doesn't know the true identity of the little butcher." Su Anran refused to accept the words, "As long as she is with you, and she lets out a little bit of the evil energy from her body, she can completely flow the spiritual energy of the entire inn.
Chaos, no one will know if you steal a little more spiritual energy at this time... So I asked you to go back to your room to give you more cultivation resources."
"Then it's the same for me here."
"Every time I breathe in, I will swallow a lot of spiritual energy. You can't benefit from me here." Su Anran said helplessly, "I have asked you to practice hard a long time ago. Look at you.
Now, how big is the gap between you and me?"
"It's amazing how high your cultivation level is!" Qingyu said angrily.
"Having a high level of cultivation is truly amazing." Su Anran nodded, "At least I can do whatever I want!"
Qingyu started to get sulky: "I think you just want to get rid of us and go to that brothel."
"What's so good about those two brothels?" Su Anran disagreed.
"Really?" Qingyu suddenly felt secretly happy.
"Of course." Su Anran nodded, "And I know who the bosses behind these two brothels are, so why should I go there?"
Qingyu's face fell a little.
Su Anran didn't seem to notice the change in Qingyu's expression, and still spoke to herself, with even a little bit of pride in her tone: "Don't look at it, I just seem to be taking you around today, chatting with people about what you have and what you don't have. In fact,
I have been learning more about this small border town... The two brothels seem to be opposites, but in fact they have no overlapping user groups at all, so you can tell at a glance that the owners of the two brothels are the same.
one."
Qingyu rolled her eyes.
She didn't care if Su Anran was shopping around today, because in Qingyu's view, it was just the two of them shopping.
But hearing Su Anran's words at this time seemed to quite ruin the atmosphere.
"I have deceived many people. Many of the more profitable businesses in this small town seem to belong to different people, but in fact they are inextricably related to the Shi family where the city lord is located.
So I have every reason to believe that the so-called bosses of these businesses,
In fact, they are all members of the Shi family." Su Anran said with confidence, "Even the inn we stayed in is also a business of the Shi family... So rather than saying that this small border town is the Baihua Kingdom
It’s a border town, rather it’s the independent kingdom of the Shi family.”
Seeing Su Anran who was so confident in front of her, Qingyu sighed helplessly.
She felt that she really shouldn't have too much expectations for Su Anran's slender head.
But if you think about it carefully, although this guy always destroys dreams, this is indeed Su Anran's consistent style.
"Then have you ever thought about why the mayor of this small border town is so fussy?" Qingyu said, "You have to know that the Lord Shi is the lord of a city. Even if this is just a small border town, this small town's
The scope of radiation's influence includes the two mountain gates of the Wanhua Mountains. Youdao is as high as the sky and as far away as the emperor, so as a local emperor, he doesn't need to do so much."
Su Anran looked thoughtful.
However, he did not think about this issue carefully and deeply.
"So, unless he is trying to avoid some trouble, or he has a deeper hidden secret, which is why he needs to make these disguises, other people will find out that he is actually in control of everything in this small border town.
." Qingyu didn't wait for Su Anran to come up with the answer, and directly announced the answer, "Then, if you are really interested in the secret of the city lord of this small town, then you should investigate and find out, it is the city lord Shi.
Who are you avoiding?"
"Why are you so sure he's hiding?"
"Because there is only one person who he cannot offend who is monitoring him, or collecting some evidence about him, and this person's power should not be much weaker than him, that is why such a local emperor needs to be so cautious." Qingyu took it for granted.
He said, "But if you really want me to give you advice, I think you don't have to go to such trouble. Just showing your strength a little bit will be enough to make these two groups of people cautious."
"What do you mean?" Su Anran blinked.
"I know what you're thinking." Qingyu said casually, "Beiling is rich in spiritual plants. Now Senior Sister needs a lot of spiritual plants, so we naturally have to establish a new trading channel here. And in this
In the channel, this border town plays a very important geographical location, it is the exit to the Western Desert, and any spiritual plants purchased by our Taiyi Sect will eventually be gathered here before being transported to the Western Desert."
"We will not mention the situation in the Western Desert for now, but the city lord of this small border town is obviously a greedy person. He also has a huge appetite for spiritual plants. Almost all spiritual plants that enter this city will eventually be eaten by him.
Swallow it, so if we want the spiritual plants we acquired to be transported smoothly to the Western Desert and then to our Taiyi Sect, then we cannot avoid this city lord."
"If we kill the opponent forcibly, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction in the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, which will most likely arouse the hostility of the Northern Tang Dynasty, which will cause dissatisfaction in the entire Beiling, so we have no way to solve the opponent through such means...and
According to the information you learned after wandering around for a day today, City Master Shi obviously has an opponent lurking in the dark, and the two of them are now evenly matched on this chessboard."
"You mean, we have to act as a third party to intervene?"
She said: "Normally, intervening in a territory where there are already two equally matched opponents will inevitably lead to a joint attack by both parties. But that refers to ordinary people who are not very powerful...With our current strength
, there are three powerful people who are called land gods in this world, so neither the City Master Shi nor his opponents will and will not dare to take action against us."
"You have to know that if we are unknown, we will definitely be used by the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, which will arouse the hostility of the entire Beiling. But if we are just doing the spiritual plant business and have no ideas and plans to get involved in other affairs, then we will lack a ruling level influence.
Naturally, the powerful Northern Tang Dynasty could not make the entire Beiling hate them.
We, after all, the Northern Tang Dynasty in Beiling is not like the Qianyuan Dynasty in the West Desert, so if this City Lord Shi and his mysterious opponent want to attack us, then they will give us excuses.
If we kill them directly, no one will accuse us."
Su Anran looked at Qingyu in surprise: "You actually have such strong analytical skills?"
"Who are you looking down on?" Qingyu looked annoyed, "Before I met you, I was also the leader of the younger generation of the Qingqiu clan. At that time, I relied on my own strength to kill among all the little bitches.
Those who were ahead of their time, even Qingshu at that time had to drink my foot-washing water!"
Su Anran shrugged noncommittally, and then asked for advice: "Okay, okay, don't get excited... Then you can tell me what we should do next?"
Qingyu wanted to say she didn't know.
But seeing Su Anran's humbly asking for advice, she rolled her eyes, and then smiled and said: "I do have a way to do this, but..."
"But what?"
"But then you have to obey my orders." Qingyu said, "You have to do whatever I ask you to do, and you can't refuse."
"That won't work." Su Anran immediately shook her head, "If you ask me to do something weird, I can't refuse?... You don't even need to raise your tail, I already know what you want to do."
Qingyu made a sound.
She knew that she was impatient just now, so she exposed some bad thoughts.
"Don't worry, I won't let you do anything weird." Qingyu decided to change his strategy, "For every instruction I give, I will explain my intention clearly to you first, and you can decide whether to implement it after listening to it.
…There’s no problem with this, right?”
"This sounds like...no problem."
Su Anran thought for a while and seemed to think there was no trap in what she said, so she nodded in agreement.
"Well, from today on, you will be in the same room with me!" After seeing Su Anran nodding, Qingyu gave the first instruction without hesitation, "Because you want to act as my personal protector, so you will
You must be with me. The Little Butcher will play the role of my sister, and Song Baiye will play the role of the Little Butcher’s personal protector... The personal protector must be inseparable from the protected person, this is the rule of our family."
"What kind of weird family rules are you talking about! And how could such a family exist?"
"Why can't there be one?" Qingyu shouted, "I am making the plans now, so what kind of family this family is must be designed by me, so if I say there is one, then there must be one... I even want to have a family.
Okay, my name is Su Qingyu
, you are Su Anran, and the little butcher is my sister, so she will be called Su Butcher. From now on, Song Baiye will change his surname to Su, and will be called Su Baiye. And the first rule of this family is that only the personal protector of the direct lineage of the family can
