Chapter 163: 163, 【You can do a lot while cooking porridge】
Translator: 549690339
Upon hearing that her Master was going out to behead someone, Lin Chan seemed unfazed. She simply murmured an internal “oh” and obediently nodded.
In Lin Chan’s heart, anything her Master did was right, so she didn’t bother to ponder or probe. Instead, she only wanted to cook porridge well so that Master could warm his stomach and fill his hunger when he returned.
Lu Xun picked up the bamboo hat on the table, put it on to hide his face, then took his sword sheath and strode out.
Night time in Yunmeng County was indeed livelier than the day, especially on that particular street.
Lu Xun didn’t rush in, but stood at the entrance and looked inside.
Some of the girls upstairs seemed to have noticed him, and a curious thought popped up in their minds: “Why can’t I take my eyes off this man with a bamboo hat at the street entrance?”
Who cares! He surely looks like a privileged customer!
Come, come!
Interestingly, the black robe Lu Xun wore was a symbol of the Demon Sect’s Young Elder status. Although simple, it was undoubtedly luxurious. Not exactly a piece of equipment, but certainly a luxury item.
Which girl working in this trade wouldn’t have sharp eyes? A single glance was enough to tell that this minimalist robe was anything but plain!
With the sound of beautiful and pleasant voices coming in waves and hand signals following one after another, Lu Xun silently nodded: “Sure enough, I’m always welcome no matter where I go.”
In fact, for the girls upstairs, it was rather pleasant to serve handsome and adorable customers while making money.
Lu Xun slowly walked on, occasionally looking up curiously. However, the lines of “Bodhisattva’s Hoar” written by Wei Zhuang whirled in his mind.
“I now recall the joys of the South River, when we were young, and the spring shirts thin.
Riding a horse, leaning against the setting sun, the ladies’ red sleeves invite from every terrace.”
Currently, most girls upstairs wore bright clothes, mainly red ones, waving their sleeves in invitation. How fitting for the scene.
As Lu Xun made his way in, watching men and women passing by and local beauties on the street, he looked inside every brothel entrance he came across.
He wasn’t looking at the quality of the girls inside, but specifically searching for the brothel madam.
“Not this one.” He kept moving forward.
“Not this one either.” He continued walking.
Although he knew the ruthless woman was hiding here, he had no memory of which brothel it was. After all, who would remember such a detail when reading a post?
It wasn’t until he reached the final building on the bustling street that a smile appeared beneath Lu Xun’s bamboo hat.
“So this is where she’s hiding.” He lowered the rim of his bamboo hat and started walking in.
Seeing Lu Xun’s low-profile but luxurious attire, the madam immediately came to welcome him.
She noticed the sword sheath in Lu Xun’s hand, a sheath without a sword. Why would he bring a sword sheath to such a place unless it’s some kind of fetish?
Could this sword sheath be… a prop?
As a brothel madam, she had seen it all. Men are diverse creatures, some were even perverse. She had seen stranger things.
The madam seemed to be in her early thirties, with both her charm and figure being impeccable.
Particularly noticeable was her tall stature, quite eye-catching.
She was even taller than an average woman.
Anyone would believe that she was the top courtesan of some brothel in her youth.
For many customers, it was considered desirable since an older woman understands human nature more.
If he had to use one word to describe this woman, Lu Xun would use the classic line from the Money Adding Master: “very juicy.”
The only flaw was that the madam was missing an arm.
“How should I address you?” Lu Xun asked.
“The humble servant’s surname is Zhang.” With her eyes alluring and glances full of charm, the madam was full of coquetry.
“So you’re Mother Zhang.” Lu Xun examined her with a curious gaze. After a while, he half-jokingly, half-seriously said, “I wonder if I can pick Mother Zhang while choosing a girl.”
Mother Zhang covered her mouth and giggled, saying, “My, if the young master doesn’t disdain my shattered beauty, how could the servant ever refuse?”
Having said that, she leaned towards Lu Xun.
Lu Xun subtly dodged and threw her a pouch of silver, saying, “Here’s an initial sum. We’ll see your performance later.”
Mother Zhang happily took the silver and led the way with a smile.
Her waist twisted with each step, seeming to be quite flexible.
She turned back to look at Lu Xun every few steps, each glance perfectly flirtatious.
Although these girls were certainly trained and brothel madams were usually former employees who had ascended to management, they too had undergone training. Nonetheless, Lu Xun felt that Mother Zhang was trying too hard.
“I suppose it makes sense, considering she spent the first decades of her life as a man,” Lu Xun thought to himself.
A man, who castrated himself and then prospered in this trade.
And in no time at all, he started his own brothel, moving up to become a madam.
What a legendary life!
Looking at her proficiency now, it seemed “men on men” affairs were frequent over the years.
Upon reaching her exclusive room, Lu Xun took off his bamboo hat.
The moment he did, he saw Mother Zhang freeze up.
“I did not expect the young master to be so handsome!” Mother Zhang uttered.
“You’re not too bad either,” Lu Xun replied nonchalantly.
Mother Zhang was rendered speechless and wasn’t sure what to say for a moment.
Lu Xun wasn’t in the mood for small talk either, so he smiled and said, “You sucked Yin Qi for years, and then started sucking Yang Qi after turning into a woman. I’m curious about your cultivation method which prevented you from losing control?”
With these words, Mother Zhang’s face drastically changed.
Before she could speak, she felt a chill at her neck.
Sword Qi quickly streaked across it.
In the blink of an eye.
The chicken head fell to the ground.
Lu Xun murmured, “Seems you paid a heavy price to turn from a man into a woman. Even after all this time, your cultivation base has only recovered so much. No wonder you were targeted by the Sea of People Strategy of the new players.”
He was just here to complete a task and didn’t bother about the backstory. If she spouted a lengthy discourse, it would seem too flaky.
Better keep it neat. He thought that was better.
If there was any heartrending backstory, the guild who completed the task in the previous life would have posted it on the forum.
The end result was, there were no stories, but a certain person from the guild secretly created some Hentai…
They were all freaking talented!
Lu Xun then took out a brand-new storage ring and put the body inside it.
Having done all this, he prepared to return to the inn.
The reason he was so anxious was simple.
By his calculations, Little Chan’s hot porridge should be ready.
Naturally, before leaving, he did not forget to take back the pouch of silver he had initially taken out.
