Chapter 251 Do you know how old the old woman in the chief secretary is?
The bustling long street was covered with soft red fragrant soil, the cool autumn breeze blew up people's clothes, and between their clothes and temples were two slightly embarrassed faces.
It was Zhuge Qingya and Zhuge Chen.
The two brothers looked at Lu Zhan with different expressions.
"Brother Lu, are you here to have sex as well?" Zhuge Qingya was a shameless man. He reacted quickly, opened his folding fan skillfully, and greeted Lu Zhan gracefully: "If I had known that Brother Lu would come, I should have reserved the place here. Which one do you like? I still have time to take Brother Lu there now."
Ever since Lu Zhan saved him from impotence, Zhuge Qingya has come to view Lu Zhan as his own father. The only way to express his inner gratitude is to book a whole restaurant for his brothers to enjoy seafood.
"No, no, I just came here to stroll around. What happened just now? Why were they kicked out? Did Zhuge Chen have sex with a prostitute and refuse to pay?" Lu Zhan waved his hands, unable to stop smiling. He didn't expect to run into such a lively event.
"No!" Zhuge Chen's face turned red with depression. He was not as shameless as his cousin. Being seen in such an embarrassing state by his colleagues, he simply wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
The madam next to her was still cursing and shouting at everyone to judge the case for her.
Zhuge Qingya was busy stuffing two silver notes into her hand. The madam was a very sensible person. She stopped making a fuss immediately after receiving the money. She snorted coldly, "For Mr. Zhuge's sake, I won't bother with this matter. But our Lihua Garden will no longer receive Zhuge Chen from now on!"
After saying that, the madam went back to the house and brought out a wooden sign, which read: Zhuge Chen and dogs are not allowed to enter!
Zhuge Chen's face turned even redder, and he felt that all his life's dignity had been lost at this moment.
Lu Zhan couldn't help laughing: "Brother Chen, what's wrong with you? You were actually driven out, and even put up a sign to prevent you from entering. This is the first time in our Demon Suppression Division!"
Zhuge Chen was furious and blushed as he shouted, "I'm here to do something serious, not what you think!"
"I'll testify." Zhuge Qingya looked like he was disappointed with his friend. "The last time he came to the black market, he followed Chun Ge into the Pear Blossom Garden. Chun Ge asked for two enchanting girls, and Xiao Chen ordered the beautiful Snake Girl. He ended up dragging the Snake Girl into the house and studied her physiological structure for the entire night, which left a huge psychological trauma on the Snake Girl. Who would have thought that he would use the same old trick again today and wanted to study the little pear flower, and almost frightened the little pear flower to death."
At the end of the story, Zhuge Qingya burst into laughter. He had been knowledgeable since childhood, but he had never seen a man like Zhuge Chen, who went to a brothel but did not go there to visit prostitutes, but instead went there to study physiological structures. Anyone who heard about this would not be able to help but laugh out loud.
Lu Zhan's eyelids twitched, and the scene of everyone's first visit to the black market naturally emerged in his mind.
At that time, Chun Ge was shouting that he was going to visit prostitutes. Zhuge Chen couldn't stand it anymore, so he took Chun Ge with him. At that time, Zhuge Chen swore that he didn't visit prostitutes, but just went to study physiological structure... At that time, everyone thought he was trying to cover up his crime, but who knew it was actually true.
Lu Zhan said seriously: "Brother Shen is truly a role model for our generation. The art of night medicine should be carried forward!"
"Don't ridicule me." Zhuge Chen was very embarrassed and walked forward with his head down: "You will be transferred out of Bianjing soon. Haven't you been accompanying the young lady these two days? Didn't the young lady know that you came to visit the brothel?"
Zhuge Chen never thought that he would be kicked out by the brothel madam. He had clearly paid the money, so it would have been fine if he was kicked out, but when he was pointed at and scolded, his colleagues saw it.
The onlookers speculated that Zhuge Chen was impotent and was therefore a psychopath who tortured the prostitute.
The more Zhuge Chen thought about it, the angrier he became, and he just wanted to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.
Lu Zhan said righteously, "What are you talking about? I didn't visit any brothels. I was just walking around and accidentally walked here. What does it have to do with the young lady?"
Zhuge Chen quietly used his true Qi to smash the sign, then walked forward with his head hung in silence. Although he said nothing, silence was more powerful than words at this moment, and the atmosphere was filled with awkwardness.
Lu Zhan suppressed his laughter and consoled him, "Brother Shen, why do you have to be so dejected? This matter is not your fault. If you want to blame someone, blame these ordinary people for having such a low vision and not being able to understand your performance art."
Not to mention in the Great Zhou Dynasty, even in the 21st century, this would be quite an explosive performance art.
It's like spending a lot of money to go to a health clinic, and enthusiastically calling two young ladies, but after entering the room, instead of interacting with the young ladies, you pull the young ladies aside to study math problems all night.
This kind of art is so advanced and would be quite explosive in any era.
"This matter must not be spread out, otherwise my reputation will be ruined." Zhuge Chen warned. Fortunately, it was not Xie Chunyan who came, otherwise the whole city would know tomorrow that he, Zhuge Chen, had a psychological disorder, so he went to the brothel at night to abuse prostitutes.
Lu Zhan said with a straight face: "I'm not Xie Chunyan!"
Speaking of Chun Ge, Lu Zhan thought of an interesting incident that happened recently. Because Xie Chunyan was involved in the incident between the Black Water Sect and the Twelve Earth Alliance, Director Chu was afraid that Xie Chunyan would get drunk and spread the news, so he asked the Confucian leader to put a silencing spell on Xie Chunyan.
It is said that he even gave two jars of pickled bamboo shoots to the Confucian leader, which made Director Chu regret it very much. He claimed that he would never use Xie Chunyan again in the future because the price was too high.
"Brother Lu, I heard that you were going to be transferred to Bian Jing. When will you be back?" Zhuge Qingya was reluctant to let Lu Zhan go. If he became impotent and had kidney deficiency again, he wouldn't know who to turn to.
"Alas, I am reluctant to leave you all, but there is nothing I can do. I cannot disobey the orders from above."
"People go to higher places and water flows to lower places. It's right to go out and explore more while you're young. Although Jinling is prosperous, it can't compare with Bianjing. It's better to go out and see the prosperity of the world than to live in a remote corner." Zhuge Qingya said logically: "It's better to leave. Jinling has been uneasy recently."
"What do you mean?" Zhuge Chen became interested. How could he not know that Jinling was not peaceful? Cousin, can you really bring Jinling down by sleeping with a beautiful girl?
Zhuge Qingya didn't answer. He dragged the two to an elegant teahouse and said after they entered a private room, "Stop pretending, I know everything. Jinling has been in trouble with evil cultivators recently. The Black Water Sect planned to rob a tomb in Jinling Purple Gold Mountain, but was caught by the Demon Suppression Bureau at a critical moment... Is this true or false?"
So that’s what happened… Lu Zhan and Zhuge Chen looked at each other. This was of course true, and they were the main force.
Lu Zhan did not answer but asked: "How did you know this?"
Although the Demon Suppression Bureau came out in full force, it was a secret operation and the common people knew almost nothing about it. Even if there were passers-by in Pingjin Mountain who heard the noise, they would not know what had happened. Zhuge Qingya knew it very well.
Zhuge Qingya lowered his voice and said, "It's because of the misfortune of our family. The son of the second aunt of my third uncle's nephew turned out to be an evil cultivator of the Black Water Sect! His mother wanted him to take the imperial examination, so she locked him up at home to study hard. But he sneaked out a few days ago and never came back. The next time we received news, it was because the Demon Suppression Bureau had come to our door."
"The second aunt then found out that her son was an evil cultivator and was now in jail, eating peanuts! She asked my third uncle to help her use his connections, and my third uncle found me, so I found out."
Lu Zhan was stunned when he heard this. It turned out that rich people have many tricks and even knew about this.
Zhuge Chen narrowed his eyes and said, "Cousin, you don't want to plead for him, do you?"
"How can that be possible! Am I that kind of person?" Zhuge Qingya said seriously, "Why don't you just beat him to death? I have disliked him for a long time."
Lu Zhan: “…”
I feel like you've laid so much groundwork just for this sentence?
Lu Zhan found it funny and felt refreshed. In fact, Zhuge Qingya was a wonderful person. Although he did not discriminate between meat and vegetables, he was not bound by worldly principles. His state of mind was even better than that of many cultivators, and he was very generous. It was very relaxing to be friends with such a person.
"Can't you help?" Seeing that the two were silent, Zhuge Qingya glanced at Zhuge Chen and said, "How about I go to visit him in prison and poison him?"
Zhuge Chen said with a straight face: "Cousin, tell me the truth, why do you dislike him?"
"Oh...I want to take care of his wife."
Lu Zhan: “…”
Zhuge Chen: “…”
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent, but Zhuge Qingya continued to argue: "This guy has never been a good person. After he got married, he often beat his wife up. Now he is involved in a cult. Why should we let him bother others? Kill him and I will take over."
"Is his wife a demon?" Lu Zhan was a little curious about his train of thought.
"No." Zhuge Qingya shook his head: "I have changed my taste recently, and I think women are the best... Of course, I won't do anything immoral. If this grandson hadn't been an evil cultivator and harmed people, even if I liked his wife, I wouldn't have done it."
Zhuge Chen was speechless, it was hard to imagine that his cousin could describe such a thing in such a refreshing and refined way.
He took a sip of tea and said in a muffled voice: "Don't worry, those who mix with evil cultivators will not survive."
Zhuge Qingya laughed immediately. He was no longer reserved as he was when they first met. He laughed without any restraint now.
Lu Zhan also laughed. Although this was a very meaningless topic, when hanging out with friends, one didn’t need meaningful topics. Just sitting down and bragging a few words and chatting about dirty things would be meaningful.
……
It was already three o'clock in the morning when Lu Zhan said goodbye to the two of them, and he was walking alone on the path back home.
He didn't talk about any serious matters with Zhuge Qingya, and yet it seemed like they talked about a lot. They said dirty words without any structure and talked about topics without substance, but they were having a lot of fun. It reminded Lu Zhan of the joyful student days, the kind of pure friendship without calculation or comparison.
No one said goodbye, but everyone knew that after parting tonight, they would not know when they would meet again.
Lu Zhan is going to Beijing this time and has no return date for the time being.
Perhaps he could easily gain a foothold in Bian Jing and return to Nanjing to visit his old friends during the holidays.
Or maybe he was walking alone in Bian Jing day and night, and when he stood on a high place, hundreds of years had passed. When he returned home in glory, Zhuge Qingya, who talked to him and said nonsense today, had already returned to the dust.
Because everything is uncertain, there is no deliberate farewell. This is how adults part ways.
Lu Zhan went there in high spirits and returned home in high spirits. After returning home, he took out an exquisite bell.
He bought the bell on the black market. It was an ordinary little magic instrument. Many women liked to hang it by the window, and it would jingle when the wind blew.
Lu Zhan picked up a pen and wrote a note, and stuffed the note into the bell. When Que Que returned, she would know where he was through this letter.
"I hope Queque won't get lost..."
Lu Zhan suddenly thought of this important question. The reason why Queque stayed here was because he was too playful when migrating with everyone, missed the main group, and couldn't find his way home.
If she can't find the way to Jinling...
"Impossible. After this incident, she will definitely replenish her essence. Then she will no longer be a stupid bird, but a smart little phoenix..."
Besides, even if she really couldn't find the way back, she could ask other people.
Lu Zhan felt that his worries were unnecessary, so he tied the bell to the ginkgo tree and cast a spell on it, which could ensure that the bell would not break for hundreds of years. As long as Que Que came back, she would definitely see it.
After doing all this, Lu Zhan still couldn't sleep. He lit a red candle and went to the yard, looking at the red persimmons hanging on the branches, feeling indescribably happy.
If it could snow at this time, the persimmons would be even more beautiful.
The persimmon tree was heavily covered with white snow, leaving only the round red fruits exposed. They looked like small lanterns hidden in the snow. It was a comforting thought, but it was a pity that he could not see this scene.
Lu Zhan watched carefully under the lamp, his thoughts wandering. When he first came to the Jinling headquarters from Jiangning, he did not feel too much of parting emotion, because Jinling was still Jinling, he did not leave, and he could go back anytime he wanted.
