Chapter 306 Discovery
This simple scene is obviously far from the owner of the room - a courtesan who is worth a thousand gold.
When she stepped into the room, she could even smell a refreshing fragrance in the air, as if she could feel relaxed and relaxed, and quite comfortable just by being in it.
Rather than saying that this is the shelter of a monster, it is more like an ordinary girl's boudoir, and it is a holy place that many men outside want but cannot get.
This is actually not too surprising. After all, since the demon chose to lurk in the human world, he naturally would not do too much on the surface, but who knows how many people the other party has eaten secretly?
Thinking of this, Su Yu's heart trembled slightly, and she subconsciously looked around in a panic, fearing that a monster with green face and fangs would suddenly jump out of somewhere and swallow her alive.
Fortunately, there are still no traces of human figures.
She felt a little relieved, but she still speeded up her movements and wanted to complete the task assigned to her by Mr. Liu before the other girl came back.
She spread out the palm of her hand that had been tightly held tightly. There were several yellow-brown talismans inside, but the ink on it was as bright as blood, not like ordinary cinnabar.
What she needs to do now is to paste these talismans in the corner of this room.
...
After about a moment, a girl who came back from outside happened to pass by Yue Ning's room, but unexpectedly saw Su Yu coming out of the inside, closing the door gently.
"Suyu? Why did you come out of Sister Yue Ning's room?" she asked in confusion.
Then she saw Su Yu's whole body tremble, as if she had been discovered by a thief. When she turned around and looked at her, her little face turned pale and her eyes dodged. She saw that she looked like a ghost in her heart, which made her even more suspicious.
"It's nothing...it's just...it just happens that Qin Lu doesn't understand something. I want to ask Sister Yue Ning for advice..." Su Yu stuttered.
"Didn't Sister Yue Ning go out to attend the county magistrate's banquet in the afternoon? Don't you know?" the girl asked again, her suspicious eyes swept across Su Yu's hands and feet, but she doesn't seem to be the kind of person who can steal on weekdays.
"Well... I just knew." Su Yu noticed the other party's scrutiny, lowered her head guiltily, turned around and walked out like an escape, "I have something to do, let's go first..."
"Is there a ghost in my heart?" the girl murmured to herself, and couldn't help but shake her head slightly.
This matter is reasonable and I have to wait until Sister Yue Ning comes back later. After all, Su Yu’s behavior just now is indeed suspicious.
————————————————
At this moment, the banquet has officially begun in the restaurant.
The six graceful dancers in the center of the first floor were all wearing red gauze dresses, dancing gracefully in the sound of the misty music, and they were naturally good, but they were still slightly worse than the courtesan.
Unfortunately, it seems that I can't see Miss Yue Ning's dance tonight. She apologized for the reason of her health and turned to playing the piano as her companion.
The county magistrate was still a little dissatisfied, but when he heard her zither sound, he changed his mind and his anger calmed down slightly.
I have to say that this courtesan is indeed capable. Not only dance, but also piano skills are so extraordinary, which makes the listener immersed in the playmaker's mood, as if there is a clear mountain spring in front of him, the water source passing through the cracks of the rocks makes a crisp and pure sound, and there is a distant sound of birds singing in the distance, which is fascinating. In a trance, the heart gradually relaxes and forgets the troubles of the past.
Therefore, the people present, whether they were talented scholars or ordinary people who bought tickets to watch, were not at the moment on the beautiful dances, but were immersed in the fantasy world created by the music, and could hardly extricate themselves.
"This woman's piano skills are indeed good, not inferior to many famous prostitutes in the capital. I didn't expect that such a clear piano sound could be heard here."
In the largest room on the second floor, the old man with gray hair and beard looked at the piano player on the stage with admiration and said to the county magistrate next to him.
"Old Xu has been awarded."
The county magistrate happily patted his round belly, and was overjoyed: "This woman's name is Yue Ning, and she is a famous courtesan in this county. Not only is she beautiful, but her piano and dance skills are both outstanding. If Mr. Xu, you are interested, the official can call her to talk about it later..."
"Oh, there is no need for this. Just wait for a woman to see from a distance, and it is a good enjoyment to listen to the sound of the piano." Old Xu shook his head slightly. He was just talking about it like this. If you really want to talk about famous prostitutes, are there still few places in the capital where people around the world gather? It is not good to disturb such beautiful sound of the piano because of power.
Immediately, he asked again, a little confused: "By the way, I heard that the county test scores in Yuanyangcheng were good, and I read all the articles of the top three, especially the idea of the first and second person is indeed a bit innovative. But why haven't I seen those two people now?"
As a civil servant, he is still secondary to the singing and dancing this time.
The county magistrate hurriedly called a servant, and after getting the answer, he couldn't help but look a little bad, but at this time he could only bite the bullet and answer: "Old Xu, I'm not to hide it. The leader of the case, Lu Guiming, accidentally was attacked by wild animals in the wild a few days ago and died. Liu Xiuping, the second place, had something important to do and was unable to attend to the banquet tonight."
"So that's the case, it's a pity." Mr. Xu couldn't help but sigh, mainly it was a pity that Lu Guiming, who was once the head of the case. "I saw that Lu Guiming's article was full of spirituality, and now I am still young, and I have great potential in the future. Even the top scorer can be expected, and I may not be able to become a useful pillar for Your Majesty in the future. It is really a pity to die now."
"That's that's it." The county magistrate also sighed. If he could produce a top scholar in his governance, he could also add a glorious mark to his resume.
"By the way," Mr. Xu suddenly remembered something, turned to a young man serving him and instructed him, "Zhiyan, you can take that article tomorrow. Although it is just a test paper for the county exam, it has a novel idea, which should also inspire you."
"Yes, uncle and nephew will go and learn tomorrow." The young man replied respectfully.
Judging from her appearance, it is Xu Zhiyan, who had known Su Zhirou and Du Bai before!
At this moment, in the Su family's room, Su Zhirou was whispering to Su Wanmiao: "Sister, I seem to know the young man who is following the big man..."
"Do you know?" Su Wanmiao was thinking about something in a daze, but when she heard this, she came to her senses and looked back at her in surprise: "This is a young master from the capital, how could you know him?"
Su Zhirou's voice stagnated. After thinking about it, she finally thought of an excuse and blurted out: "It was my brother-in-law who took me to know!"
