Every prosperous city always has some dark corners that cannot be easily found by people. That is where all the beggars, ruffians, gamblers, and wanted criminals gather…… , and to put it simply, good kids are never going to have a chance to know this type of place.

Yu Sifeng said he was going to meet someone and hearing his respectful tone everyone thought this person must be a man of the world, perhaps even wearing a white tunic and holding a bamboo teacup, the color of the tea inside is like green jade. But he led them around the city and finally came to such a hellish place.

Zhong Minyan saw that the eaves of this place are low and the alley is narrow enough for only one person to cross sideways. There was filth on the ground and the stench is unbearable, he immediately frowned.

“Sifeng, your old friend … lives here?” He still does not sound convinced.

Xuanji saw that there were a lot of turns and connected alleys in the street, and many people did not care whether the ground was dirty or not, they were sitting there with a big smile on their faces, some chatting, some with smoking pipes in their mouths. When they saw their group of well-dressed and handsome young men and women, they stared straight at them, a few of them are lecherous, whistling and talking nonsense from time to time.

“What do they mean by “little rabbit”?” Xuanji’s ears were sharp, so they heard their naugty words and turned to ask Yu Sifeng.

The teenagers were all dumbfounded, embarrassed and annoyed. Zhong Minyan grunted and Yu Sifeng pretended not to hear. The only thing Ruo’Yu could do was to laugh dryly and say, “This … its meaningless to know this nonsense.”

Xuanji saw those people puffing on their pipes and the blue smoke that came out floated with the wind, carrying the fragrance of the medicinal stones and it smelled quite fragrant.

“It’s smoking powder!” When Zhong MInyan saw that Xuanji was still looking up to smell it, he hurriedly slapped her on the back of the neck. “Idiot! That’s poisonous! After addiction, you are no longer a human being, why are you sniffing?”

Xuanji was hit by him and let out an “ah ah” sound, the back of her neck was numb with pain, she couldn’t help but cover the pain and looked at him helplessly and aggrieved. He must have done it on purpose, he still remembers the night he lost a tael of silver to her, this is standard retaliation! Sixth Brother has always been stingy!

Zhong Minyan coughed to cover up his awkwardness, seeing Yu Si Feng come to a broken house door, raised his hand and knocked twice – the door was weakly knocked down by him, banging on the ground, immediately splashing filth high and scaring everyone to jump up and dodge.

“Hey! Your old friend does not really live here, right?” Zhong Minyan can’t help it, this place looks so unorthodox, Sifeng’s friend is not a big bad guy, right?

Yu Sifeng didn’t even move his eyeborws. He stepped onto the decaying door very naturally and walked inside. Inside was a similarly shabby little yard with two dying pine trees and a lot of furniture and miscellaneous items they couldn’t even name.

“Minyan, you can’t judge a book by its cover, and that …… person has never done anything according to the rules ……”

Ruo’Yu struggled to step through the doorway, his feet were half immersed in the garbage and he was so shocked that his face turned green.

Yu Sifeng knocked twice on the door of the inner room, but there was no sound from inside. He was a little reluctant, knocked harder – still no response. He was so impatient that he kicked the door open and said loudly, “Liu Yihuan, get out!”

Another poor door died at his feet, the house is still quiet, the people can not help but be curious, peeked inside, only to feel a sour smell drifetd to thier nose, inside can not be called a human house, should be called “pigsty”, perhaps even a pigsty is more clean and fragrant than here.

Even Xuanji couldn’t stand it and took a few steps backwards, almost getting smoked out. Yu Sifeng carefully looked around the house to make sure no one was there, then the door was propped up and was reluctantly resting on the frame to continue to perform its duties as a ‘door’.

Perhaps their noise alarmed the people next door, an old man holding a walking stick came over and said: “If you are here to find Yi Huan, at this hour he’s probably still sleeping in the pleasure boat[1] by the river! Why don’t you go there to look for him?”

Boat? The people were a bit confused, this thing should be only something the rich people can go to, looking at this man’s home it is very poor, probably even the rats do not want to patronize, he actually has money to go to the pleasure boat to sleep?

Yu Si Feng’s face changed dramatically and he said urgently: “The so-called pleasure boat …… is it the Jiao Hong Fang[2]?”

The old man showed a very lewd smile, a ‘I knew you young people do not follow good examples’ look, he laughed: “Qingyang’s pleasure boats, in addition to here, are there any more famous?”

Yi Sifeng’s face turned red and white, but he turned around and went out.

Xuanji quietly asked Ruo’Yu: “What is the Charming Place? Do they have food?”

Ruo’Yu thought about it for a long time then explained with a dry smile, “This … probably, maybe should … have it …. but … it’s not a good place.”

It’s not a good place, of course, because Jiao Hong Fang is the most famous brothel in Qingyang. It is not because the prostitutes are very beautiful, or the service is very good, but because it is a place where anyone can enter, even if you are a prisoner who will be killed the next day; any woman of any age and appearance can be a prostitute, even if you are over 70 years old, and the most important thing is that the prices are unimaginably low.

When Yu Sifeng and the others came over, everyone’s face could be described as colorful except for the ignorant Xuanji.

Zhong Minyin managed to escape the claws of a group of beautiful swallows, and was even kissed on his face at some point, leaving a blush mark. He seemed like he wanted to escape this place as soon as possible, “Forget it if you can’t find him! Go back!”

Just now, Xuanji was hugged and kissed by a group of kind and enthusiastic beautiful sisters, who said she was cute. She said she was hungry and someone brought her a plate of dim sum, which she cheekily took and ate. It was delicious, so she felt this place was very interesting and fun.

When they went up to the second floor of the boat, they were greeted by a servant with a large smile on his face, “Yo, you look familiar, young master! Not a local, right? What kind of girls do you like? Don’t be polite, just treat them as if they were your own family!”

When they saw Xuanji with a snack in her hand, she was eating and looking around, she looked beautiful, her skin was white, she was really a rare good product. The eyes of the servant suddenly lit up and rushed over to ask, “Miss, the girls here are not harshly criticised. The share of the drinks, they are all on their own. If you’re interested, you can always consider coming to ……”

Yu Sifeng didn’t wait for him to finish his nonsense, he said coldly, “We are here to find someone.”

The servant then realized that they all wore swords on their waists and had a murderous look on their faces, so they must be dangerous people and did not dare to anger them, quickly smiled and asked, “Who is this young warrior looking for?”

“Liu Yihuan.” The three words of Yu Si Feng almost squeezed out from his teeth, sounding even more murderous, only to scare the servant’s legs weak, and said: “I do not know …… you gentlemen please feel free …… that what … … …no need to be polite ……”

After saying that he ran away, almost crawling.

No one led the way, the group had to search one by one, not to mention how many businesses were broken, just the screams of the naked prostitutes was enough to make their ears ring for three days.

The last room on the second floor, Yu Si Feng’s face has long been as blue with anger, he did not even bother to knock on the door, directly kicked through the paper door, as expected, inside again came the screams of prostitutes.

However, before the shouts subsided, he heard a lazy, low voice ringing out, “Noisy, women are screaming and screaming when they have nothing to do.”

When Yu Sifeng heard this voice, he let out a long breath and walked in with a stern face, stepping on the door, saying coldly, “You came to this place again! I have to look for you!”

When the people heard this, they knew they had found the right person, and they all couldn’t wait to run in and see who they had spent most of the day looking for.

Xuanji was quick and slipped in first, only to see a woolen carpet in the middle of the room, with a low table on top. A man was lying behind the table with long hair not tied up, the messy hair hanging over the shoulder, even the eyebrows are half hidden.The man is wearing a half-used gray robe with a half-open chest, which is very majestic.

Seeing that Xuanji kept staring at himself, the man suddenly raised his head and looked at her. customers. He seemed like such a lazy person, yet the eyes were actually as sharo as knives. When they made eye contact, Xuanji felt a numbness in her scalp and wanted to take a step back.

Yu Sifeng walked over and sat across from him. The two prostitutes were still lying around the rogue man and they seemed as if they were trying to escape but he held one in each of his arms, so they couldn’t escape and could only tremble miserably.

“I want to see you for something. I’m looking for you,” Yu Sifeng said indifferently, casually peeling a grape and stuffing it into his mouth.

The man – that should be Liu Yihuan – sat up lazily and waved to the three dazed people behind him: “Come sit down together, don’t be polite. Come …… have some fruit!”

The prostitutes on either side of him took advantage of his beckoning and rushed away. The three of them, including Xuanji, also had to sit over, looking at him nervously, not knowing what to say.

The man was holding his head up and looked at Yu Si Feng for a while, and then he looked again, grinned and said: “Not bad, the mask is off. I would like to congratulate you!”

After saying that he looked at Xuanji again. When she saw something to eat she was very calm and took a bunch of grapes and stuffed them into her mouth.

It must be her. Liu Yihuan smiled faintly, tapped on the table and said loudly: “Good! The first thing you need to do is to come to me with all this trouble, what is it?”

Yu Sifeng said softly, “Please open your eyes in the heaven, we need to find a man.”
