Chapter 57

Update Time: April 26, 2013

Although Cheng Fugui’s cultivation was not impressive, he was an old man who could speak to the city lord and was known for his shrewdness. How could Gongsun Furan, who followed the city lord, dare to offend such a two-faced, despicable person? So, when he thought of this situation, he couldn't help but feel depressed!

Since he was feeling stifled, he naturally had to find a way to vent! Compared to the gentle bodies and passionate service of women, Gongsun believed that a good sweat from martial practice was more effective at relieving his frustration! So he changed his mind about visiting his concubine, instructed more people to secretly search for Yun Mo to kill him, and without bothering to take out his armor from his ring and put it on, he ate a quick bowl of soup and then headed to the training ground in his comfortable black training clothes! By this time, night had already fallen!

...

The clouds in the sky dispersed, and the night quietly descended. After the violent storm, the air was fresh, and the sky was clear and bright, like a beautiful woman after a bath, looking so captivating!

The full moon gradually appeared, and the stars shone brightly. It was a beautiful time, but many unpleasant things happened during this period, adding countless bloody scenes to the gentle summer night, making people extremely irritable!

Half an hour earlier, when Gongsun was still troubled about whether to go to his concubine or the training ground, Yun Mo and Meng Mei had already arrived at the shop that specialized in women's cosmetics, under the last rays of the setting sun!

This street was only three blocks away from the Gongsun residence, which should have taken only five or six minutes, but Yun Mo and Meng Mei walked it with a sense of twists and turns, taking a full 29 minutes to reach their destination! During this time, Meng Mei pulled Yun Mo to buy a few cute dolls and two large, soft cotton candies. It was Meng Mei who paid with copper coins, and Yun Mo enjoyed the feeling of being treated!

Yun Mo took a bite of the cotton candy and felt it might rival the elastic object in his arm! One was a pleasure for the taste, the other for the touch, different in some ways, but similar in others. Both were white, large, soft, and tender, and probably equally delicious!

This guy was thinking about these lewd things when he suddenly realized that his male body had a long-awaited reaction!

"Fortunately, I'm wearing armor that can press it down, or I would have been embarrassed!" Yun Mo finished the cotton candy in a few bites, thinking to himself.

And Meng Mei's eyes were as sharp as infrared! She had served noblewomen since childhood, and although she was still a virgin, she had seen countless scenes in this area, intentionally or unintentionally. Suddenly, she noticed Yun Mo slightly bending over, her eyes darted around, and she squinted, spotting Yun Mo's unusual condition in the dim night. She couldn't help but smile inwardly, knowing she had caught Yun Mo's interest! Although she was flustered and embarrassed, she felt an extremely sweet sensation subconsciously, as if proving her usefulness. So she moved closer to Yun Mo, occasionally using her fullness to tease him, finding it very amusing!

But Yun Mo was suffering, with a certain part causing him great trouble, making him inwardly call her a little demon, feeling he couldn't take it!

Thus, they finally arrived here, where the lights were bright and the crowd was bustling. Meng Mei naturally relaxed her arm, and Yun Mo controlled himself to return to his normal state, his mind becoming clear again!

"Hmm, still no movement? It seems this guy is quite patient. Wen Jun said he goes to practice every day. I hope he doesn't change his habit today!"

Yun Mo perked up his ears, listening, and became somewhat anxious.

This street is called 'Luojia Street.' The origin of the name is unknown, but everyone just calls it that! It is the most prosperous street in the city lord's residence! The entire street is ten zhang wide, wide enough for a large group of demon horses to gallop! On both sides are various shops of different sizes, not too large, as it is just a small branch, so there's no need for a large area, right?

But even the smallest three-story buildings are like sparrows with all their organs intact, each decorated magnificently and splendidly!

Business, of course, first emphasizes atmosphere. Since the area is small, they make up for it with decoration, and these guys spare no effort in this aspect! This is also a way to show their strength to the guards and the city lord's family, so how could they not put in the effort?

The three-story building in front of Yun Mo and Meng Mei, located in the middle of the right side of the long street, stood out particularly! Its roof was made of golden glazed tiles, and the red walls facing the street were carved with exquisite colored female figures! Some were admiring themselves in mirrors, some were lightly brushing their eyebrows, some were gazing tenderly, and some were graceful and affectionate. Each was vivid and meticulously carved, and countless gems of various colors filled the empty spaces on the walls, making the carvings almost come to life under the colorful light!

At the entrance, two rows of beautiful women in thin white dresses lined up! Each was as gentle and beautiful as a fairy, smiling before they even spoke! A precious red carpet was laid in front of them, and they politely greeted each customer with a bow!

Yun Mo inwardly praised, "Aren't these the receptionists from my previous life? It seems merchants' minds are all the same, otherwise, how could their ideas be so similar?"

He had been working hard and had no time to wander around the city lord's residence. His rare free time was spent making bombs and poisons, so this famous Luojia Street was the first place he had visited in the past six months! At the entrance of the first floor of this small building, a golden plaque with three large purple-red characters, inscribed by famous calligraphers, shone brightly. It was the renowned 'Chenyu Pavilion,' an old brand of women's cosmetics that promised to give users the beauty of 'sinking fish and falling geese, toppling cities and nations'!

Such a grand claim was truly astonishing, but you couldn't help but admire their quality! For example, the active pearl powder made from the finest pearls from Tianjie Ocean, which had skin-nourishing effects; the non-toxic beauty spot remover made from the venom of the Yunhuo Scorpion from the southern border; and the premium concealer made from the flower stamens of the Devil Yam from the Northern Cold Desert, and so on. The variety was dazzling, and the quality was top-notch, with effects that everyone praised!

Of course, the prices were extremely high! For example, a small bottle of premium concealer, no bigger than a fist, cost 10,000 gold coins! Enough to support a family of four in luxury for ten years, but only enough to buy this small bottle of stuff!

So, while the products were good, not many people could afford them! Even a guard captain with a small lover didn't have the confidence to go in and spend, showing how precious the items were!

Only someone like Cheng Fugui, a high-level steward, could afford to buy things here for his beloved wife, without worrying about the cost! For the concubines who hadn't given birth, Cheng Fugui would skin them alive if they dared to buy anything here!

At this time, the night had just fallen, and the moon was just rising, the busiest time of the day!

On both sides of the street, various shops lined up! Jewelry stores, divine weapon pavilions, tobacco and alcohol shops, tea houses, high-end restaurants, daily goods markets, food and seafood shops, expensive furniture, ready-to-wear stores... in short, everything you could think of! Each was decorated luxuriously, like peacocks displaying their feathers, trying their best to attract attention! Many young men distributing flyers jumped around, enthusiastically promoting their products, using methods no less cunning than the unscrupulous merchants of Yun Mo's previous life, showing that where there is profit, there is creativity!

In a slightly quieter area in the distance, casinos were clustered! At their entrances, bald thugs called out to their friends, playing to their heart's content! The city lord's residence was open to the public, so many ruffians from Ziyev City and the surrounding areas came to play and have fun. But safety was absolutely guaranteed; if you wanted to cause trouble, you had to consider your own weight first. The guards here wouldn't tolerate your nonsense, and if you sought death, you would die quickly, without any delay, so you could rest assured!

This was very different from other noble residences, which were closed to outsiders and thus not as lively. This was often criticized by other nobles: "Making your residence, well, it's big, but it's still a private residence, like a market, where is the dignity of a noble?"

But the city lord of Ziyev City didn't care about that. He did what he thought was right, and that was his way!

There were even two brothels with ambiguous pink lanterns at the end of the street! Yun Mo saw many guards avoiding others' gazes, approaching the girls at the entrance, and after a few words, being pulled into the building for a night of pleasure, of course, with gold coins!

Of course, most of the men dressed as guards were walking around with their families, contributing to the prosperity of the place!

Yun Mo was greatly impressed, suddenly thinking, "This world, except for the lack of electricity, isn't much different from my previous life. A colorful life awaits you, Yun Mo, you need to work hard!"

After encouraging himself, the two of them, looking very intimate, entered Chenyu Pavilion with the sweet greetings of the receptionists. Yun Mo didn't forget to listen for any movement from the Gongsun residence while winking at a few receptionists who were sending him flirtatious glances! He was anxious inside but had to keep a calm face, which was quite painful!

At this time, Gongsun was leaving his resting place and heading to the training ground!

Then, they arrived!

Yun Mo and Meng Mei had just entered Chenyu Pavilion and hadn't had time to look around when they heard整齐的步伐声 from behind. Yun Mo, who had something to hide, immediately turned to look out the door!

Four extremely simple but elegant black carriages, each pulled by eight magnificent demon horses with red eyes and white bodies, appeared in his line of sight!
