#56 - Riverside Rendezvous
Judging from Li Yang's reaction, he doesn't seem to be a transmigrator.
This is normal, after all, Li Yang hasn't shown any particularly "modern" behavior before.
But actually, Wei Changtian was really hoping to hear a "symbols determine the quadrant" just now.
If that were the case, he would have found a "kindred spirit" in this world and wouldn't feel so lonely.
Integrating into a completely new environment is difficult, but if there is someone from the same place as you, everything becomes much simpler.
And who knows, that person might even be a scientist? Wouldn't the technological revolution that I can't complete be realized?
Hmm? Should I spread "odd changes, even remains unchanged" as the first line of a couplet, offering a reward for someone who can come up with the second line?
Thinking of this, Wei Changtian suddenly remembered a joke from his previous life.
It was about four male roommates who transmigrated to ancient times together. One of them became the emperor, so he issued a decree throughout the land seeking someone who could match the phrase "Five Years of College Entrance Exams."
Using this method, he quickly found two of his brothers, but the last one was nowhere to be found.
Years passed in a flash, and he assumed that the last roommate had unfortunately died, until one day, after making love with his newly acquired concubine, he suddenly heard a sentence in his ear—"Three Years of Mock Exams."
“Hahahaha!”
Wei Changtian suddenly couldn't help but laugh out loud, while Li Yang and Wang Er looked like they had seen a ghost.
“Wei, Brother Wei, are you okay...”
“Yes, Young Master, did that ape demon hurt your brain? I'll go find the imperial physician...”
“Come back here!”
Wei Changtian's face instantly darkened: “I'm fine!”
“But...”
“I just felt so happy that I could have someone like Brother Li to help me, that's all.”
“...”
Li Yang and Wang Er exchanged a glance and reluctantly accepted this explanation.
After the little interlude, the secret talk continued, and the three began to discuss the Freemasons again.
Currently, the members of the Freemasons mainly come from prisoners awaiting trial in the Great Temple.
After all, it is a secret organization, and it still needs a normal identity to cover it up on weekdays.
After chatting for about another hour, Li Yang and Wang Er went to do their own things, while Wei Changtian pulled up the system interface.
After Zhang Hongwen was beheaded, he got another 150 points, plus the 50 points given by Yang Liushi, and now he has 200 points.
Wei Changtian doesn't plan to spend it, but plans to save it up and continue to buy Xiao Feng's same golden finger.
【Devour Demon: Special Divine Power, the owner can absorb part of the cultivation of the demon corpse, the absorption ratio is determined by the owner's own realm, 300 points (story-related props, 30% off)】
Still 100 points short, I guess I can get a little more after Li Kan becomes the Minister of the Great Temple.
If it's still not enough by then, I can only take down Lu Jingyao, this "piggy bank", as well.
The speed of earning points is still too slow...
Wei Changtian scratched his head with some distress, and at this moment, a burst of warmth suddenly came from his waist.
He always carries two jade pendants with him now.
One is from the Willow Leaf Office, and the other is from Yang Liushi.
His injury hasn't healed yet, so Kong Changgui definitely won't assign him any tasks.
So... Xiao Feng has finally contacted Yang Liushi!
...
Midnight.
Most of the people are already asleep at this time, but Pingchangfang is still brightly lit, with the sounds of singing and laughter never ceasing.
Because this is the largest red-light district in the entire capital.
Whether you are a powerful court official or an unfulfilled scholar; whether you are a wealthy businessman or a poor warrior, this can be your gentle embrace.
A night here doesn't cost a thousand gold, or even a hundred gold, the cheapest only costs a few coins of silver.
Even if you have a skill such as writing poetry or being handsome, or just a skill, not only will you not spend money, but you may even earn some pocket money.
How can such an occasion not make men yearn for it.
And among these, what everyone yearns for the most is probably the embroidered room on the top floor of the Phoenix Perch Pavilion.
“Miss, today someone quarreled with Mama downstairs again to see you.”
“Is that so? What happened in the end?”
Yang Liushi was sitting at the table combing her hair, and didn't even turn her head when she heard this, as if she was used to this kind of thing.
“Mama just dumped them on other girls.”
The maid replied, and seeing that Yang Liushi was putting hairpins in her hair, she asked with some doubt: “Miss, why are you dressing up so late at night?”
“I'm trying on the new jewelry to see if it looks good... Here, what do you think?”
“Hehe, Miss, you look good no matter how you dress up.”
“You're so glib! Okay, I'm sleepy, you can go out.”
“Yes.”
The maid obediently retreated, and after Yang Liushi admired her beauty for a while, she didn't take off her clothes and go to sleep. Instead, she took out a black cloak from the closet and put it on.
She blew out the candle and gently opened the window.
Outside is a small river, and there are many drunk patrons by the river.
Yang Liushi clenched her cloak and jumped down, but the pairs of eyes secretly staring at the window seemed to see nothing.
Even in their eyes, that window had never been opened from beginning to end.
...
Two quarters of an hour later.
In a river heart pavilion downstream of the Qingci River, Yang Liushi finally waited for the late Wei Changtian.
“You're late.”
She gently took off her hood, and there was a bit of delicate anger on her beautiful face.
Wei Changtian waved his hand indifferently and said unceremoniously: “What if you wait a little longer? It's as if you're very busy.”
“You, can't you just find an excuse to perfunctorily me?”
Yang Liushi's tone no longer had the trepidation and fear she had on the flower boat last time, but rather like a wronged little daughter-in-law.
“That's enough, don't do these pretentious things.”
Wei Changtian had no interest in flirting with her at this time. He sat down on the stone bench and asked directly: “That Young Master Xiao contacted you?”
Yang Liushi puffed up her cheeks for a long time, and finally nodded helplessly: “Yes, he came last night.”
“Did he still ask you to seduce Liu Yuanshan? Did you agree to him?” Wei Changtian asked continuously.
“No.”
Yang Liushi shook her head: “Young Master Xiao said that I don't need to do this anymore.”
“No need?”
Wei Changtian was stunned: “Why? Tell me what he said!”
“Oh, he said at the time...”
Yang Liushi thought for a while and repeated truthfully: “Thanks to a guy's kick, there's no need to trouble Miss Yang to do this.”
A guy's kick?
What the hell?
Wei Changtian frowned and thought for a long time, and suddenly had a bold guess.
“A guy” refers to himself! “A kick” refers to the kick he gave Liu Zongliang on the flower boat!
Xiao Feng probably wanted to pull the Liu family to deal with the Wei family, but maybe the Liu family was a little hesitant at first, so he wanted to use Yang Liushi to add fuel to the fire.
However, because he kicked Liu Zongliang half to death, the Liu family was completely angered, so there was no need to use Yang Liushi anymore!
The more Wei Changtian thought about it, the more reliable it seemed, and he pondered for a while before continuing to ask Yang Liushi.
“Did he say anything else to you?”
“He did, he wanted me to seduce another person.”
“Who?”
“...”
Yang Liushi looked over with a light smile, and opened her red lips to spit out a word.
“You.”
Today is Qixi, I am very sad.
I finished writing early, specially cut a thirty-dollar hairstyle, and bought Xiang Piao Piao milk tea, ready to ask the goddess to go to the movies.
The goddess originally agreed, but in the end she said that her stomach hurt and she wouldn't go.
I can understand that she is not feeling well.
But why did I see a photo of him and the goddess in the Moments of another male friend???
The goddess's painful but forced smile is so distressing.
I just want to ask all the readers, what medicine is good for a stomach ache?
