Chapter 298： "Chrysanthemum Shrine 1 Guard"

Su Lun didn't know whether the woman in the kimono who led her in should be called "madam" or "mama-san", but she followed.

There are obviously not many cherry trees, but because of the clever arrangement, it gives people the feeling of blossoming into a forest. . .

Walking through a beautifully carved covered bridge, the vision suddenly opened up, and the main body of the building suddenly came into view.

This is not a simple wooden building, but a building ship. The entire building is half-floating in the air. There is an airship-like skin on the top, and a suspension device like a boiler room on the bottom. The overall style of the building is very unique, with bucket arches and eaves, blue tiles and white walls, as well as paper-pasted wooden doors and windows, and red lanterns with the words "Naganoya" hanging under the eaves of the corridor. .

Su Lun felt that it was very comfortable to look at. Every stone, wood, flower and grass in this geisha house gave people a just right aesthetic feeling.

I never thought that it was such a coincidence that as soon as I entered the door, I met a familiar person.

That big flower kimono, a heroic woman with a domineering walking posture, who is not Qianjo?

......

"How did she get here?"

Su Lun was also surprised.

If he met this gambling-addicted young woman at a gambling stall, he would not be surprised at all. But what's going on now?

Behind Qianjo followed the timid little girl holding the sword, which was naturally Lolota.

What surprised Su Lun even more was that Qianjo actually hugged a white-faced boy who was wearing a samurai uniform and looked so handsome that the cherry blossoms in full bloom were shy.

Are the two still very close?

Male geisha?

(Spoiler, this is a woman.)

"what...?"

Su Lun knew very well that Qianjo had only a few hobbies, but he definitely didn't visit the Geisha Hall. She is neither masculine nor feminine. For her, it would be more comfortable to gamble a few times when she has this spare time.

So seeing this abnormal scene, Su Lun not only did not have any gossip thoughts in his heart, but immediately realized something: Qianjiao came here to do something?

Obviously, it was at this moment that Qianjo also saw him.

Even though Su Lun made a disguise, the two were so familiar that they could recognize them with just one look.

Qianjo's eyes swept away, not wanting to say hello at all. She hugged the white-faced little boy, chatting and laughing, and walked straight into the building.

The eyes of the two met and parted.

Even if they didn't speak, the two were so familiar with each other, and Su Lun could feel the playful look in his eyes, as if to say, "Oh, you really enjoy yourself, come to a brothel?"

"I asked her before and she didn't tell me. There must be some trouble to deal with... I didn't think so, but it happened."

Su Lun felt a little dumbfounded.

At this time, Mom Sang, who was beside him, suddenly said something, interrupting his thoughts, "Sir, be careful with the steps."

"Ok."

Su Lun responded with a sound, and then restrained his thoughts.

They all walked to the door, and naturally they wanted to go in and have a look.

What's more, if there is really too much trouble, Qianjo will also summon him to notify him.

Su Lun was also very curious about what happened to make Qianjo not want him to be involved.

To be on the safe side, he quietly changed his clothes while walking, holding the black umbrella tied with a long stick with cloth strips in his hand.

......

As soon as he entered, the elegant decoration in the building made Su Lun not feel the noise of entering any other customary place at all.

Due to the ingenious design of the ship building, which is obviously not big, the interior space does not feel cramped and depressed at all.

Quiet and elegant, as soon as you come in, you immediately feel a little peaceful in your heart.

Su Lun glanced at the surroundings and immediately felt that it was indeed worth the money.

For ordinary pirates, the Geisha Hall is already a high consumption, and there are not many guests here.

And there are screens and partitions. After going upstairs, you can hardly see other guests, which also ensures privacy.

Su Lun was led to a room on the second floor. The location of the "Naganoya Geisha Pavilion" was halfway up in the city, and the window could just see most of the night view of the Pirate City.

He looked at the price list and ordered a geisha at the lowest price, escorting 5,300 risos/hour.

Not long after, a young woman wearing a blue koi cheongsam covered her face with a golden fan and walked in gracefully.

Sullen glanced at it.

She pretends to be very strong. But in fact, without makeup, it should be good to see the outline of the facial features. The grades of sixteen or seventeen are when they are pure and lovely. And behind the geisha, there were two foils who looked like maids. After the three came in, the last one gently closed the door.

The leading woman walked in front of Su Lun, bent down and smiled: "Hello sir, my name is Koike Tepei, and I'm a geisha from Naganoya."

"Ok."

Su Lun nodded, not showing much emotion.

The environment here is very comfortable and it feels good to stay.

In his perception, Chijo was in a room diagonally opposite.

Take your time, don't rush.

......

The geisha enters the house, and then there are some service procedures, tea art, dancing, musical instrument performance, swordsmanship performances... are all very distinctive performances.

Su Lun himself is proficient in some music theory, and it is not a cow chewing peony.

He listened to the ditty and looked at the dance, and it really felt pleasing to the eyes.

This geisha named "Koike" has indeed worked hard in these literary and artistic fields and has deep attainments.

Talent is visible to the naked eye.

What's even more rare is that when she gets along in the same room, she gives Su Lun the feeling that she is not a showman, but more easy-going like a friend. Those eyes are also full of emotion, not the straightforward philistine of "you hurry up, I have to go to the next bell" like the girl in the customs museum.

Even if there is no physical pleasure, getting along with it gives people a spiritual pleasure.

This is a very smart way of getting along.

For the price alone, it's really worth it.

After dancing a dance, Xiaochi gathered the hem of the cheongsam, walked to Su Lun with small steps, and approached to help him pour tea.

The two escorts in the corner of the room were playing the Sanxuan Qin with a slow and soothing rhythm.

Because it was very close, Su Lun smelled the faint fragrance on her body, and asked casually, "The dance just now was very interesting, but it looked a bit like a sacrifice dance?"

In addition to performances, conversations are also one of the most important services in the Geisha House.

Su Lun didn't just come to watch the dance. He heard that these geisha held a lot of important information.

The teapot is held high, and the tea is not spilled at all. This is a kind of "oil seller"-like familiarity.

Xiaochi poured tea for Su Lun, handed it over with a gentle smile, and at the same time responded: "Sir's vision is really accurate. This dance is a sacrificial dance that worships the wind and the gods. Once, the witches in our clan only danced when they worshiped the gods. dance."

"Oh? This is Kagura Dance?"

Su Lun knew some of the situation in the country of hidden mountains, and the two started chatting.

"Why do you want to wear heavy makeup? It's obviously very good-looking."

"Because in our country of hidden mountains, every household uses candles. At night, the light will be very dim. So in order to make the guests feel better, the geisha will paint it white. I will make you laugh, sir."

"Does Shanyin have any interesting customs and specialties?"

"Kendo, tea ceremony, literature, volcanic hot springs, and monster legends... There are demon swords, ghosts, and gods..."

"Is there really a monster in Shanyin?"

"Naturally there are. The gods and ghosts are the most important existences in our Shanyin country. If you are interested in going there, sir, you may encounter monsters. Kappa, the drinking boy, the nine-tailed demon fox Yuzao The former, the young girl's room, the online bride..."

"It is said that 'the most beautiful girl in the world' has the ultimate beauty in the world, is it really that beautiful?"

"Yes, even Koike has never seen anyone more beautiful than Master Mitre. Unfortunately, Master Mitate will not leave Yamagata..."

"..."

Su Lun and this Xiaochi gradually started chatting.

The geisha has mastered the excellent conversation skills, and it really lives up to its reputation.

She felt like Su Lun was chatting among friends, and she was well-informed. Ask anything, you can almost say three points. Real time, history, literature, rhythm... never stand still.

In other places, just this insight, I am afraid that many young ladies of big noble families are not at this level.

Su Lun subtly inquired a lot about the customs of Shanyin Kingdom, and also learned some information about the intricate forces in the pirate city.

This information can also be regarded as the added value of the high service fee.

But the strange thing is that when it comes to the relevant information of "Rune Old Man", Koike will deftly bypass this topic, as if it is taboo.

Su Lun is not in a hurry, the night is still long.

......

The Geisha Museum is not like the Fengyuechang, the technicians and customers are all there for that kind of thing. Geisha will be patient to do everything, even pouring tea, it is a pleasing process.

Obviously, the geisha did not show the slightest bit of astringency, but their frowns and smiles gave people a feeling of style.

Su Lun felt very relaxed.

After chatting for only an hour, this Xiaochi gave him a familiar feeling like an old friend.

He didn't forget his pirate character, and he didn't make a joke in vain while he set up information. While chatting, he also asked a question that he was also curious about: "Miss Xiaochi, this is the Pirate City after all. Do you encounter rude guests during your usual reception?"

Pirates are all rough men, no matter how clever they are, can these geisha resist when they meet those lustful guys?

Xiaochi naturally knew what he was asking, his cheeks flushed slightly, and his shyness seemed very natural, and he nodded slightly and said, "Naturally I will encounter it. However, there is also a special person in the museum to deal with it."

Su Lun said again: "What if it is a very tough guest?"

Xiaochi smiled subtly, and her beautiful eyes flashed, as if she meant something, "If you meet a happy guest, of course it's fine."

After a pause, her tone suddenly became stern, and she added: "If you don't like it, you're out of luck. Although we geisha are humble, we won't spare our lives, and we won't embarrass the clubhouse."

Su Lun heard the sarcasm of acquaintances in that tone, raised his brows, and said casually, "What if I want to stay overnight?"

Xiaochi glanced at him, and there was a hint of charm between his brows and eyes, "Sir, definitely not."

This is really a very clever reply, taking retreat as the advance, even if you have that kind of mind, you still have a feeling of love and pity and can't bear to be destroyed.

Su Lun was a little curious about her speaking skills, and then asked with a smile, "Why do you think so?"

Xiaochi's pretty face said very seriously: "Because you have an extraordinary temperament, sir. Xiaochi knows that you are different from other guests."

"Oh...?"

Su Lun listened, his eyes narrowed slightly.

The skill this time is really impeccable.

It's a trick, but it doesn't seem to be.

On the Fengyue Field, if the girl praises you for your good work, the probability is not that you are so good, but a professional term. They are good at talking to people and talking to ghosts. In that kind of physical entanglement, even if the guests know that it is fake, they will feel very happy and double their happiness.

But this is a geisha house, it's vegetarian.

Xiaochi's response made Su Lun unable to tell whether she saw through her disguise or whether her professionalism made her say this.

That's the real genius of geisha talking skills.

It is also the most important reason why the Geisha Hall can exist in the customs halls of the Pirate City.

No matter how vicious pirates are, the more rude they are, the more empty their hearts are and the better their minds are.

......

Su Lun stayed in the inn for two or three hours, and communicated with Koike quite happily.

Selling the Golden Cave, it is indeed the Golden Selling Cave.

If it weren't for his disguised identity, he probably wouldn't be stingy with tips.

But his character is a little pirate, and the tens of thousands of dollars in his pocket will definitely not be able to stay up all night.

Su Lun has another purpose for staying here, and that is to see what Qianjo is doing here.

Now it looks like the money won't last until midnight.

Coincidentally, it didn't take long before the big play was staged.

At about ten o'clock, the screens and lattices of the room on the second floor were pulled apart, allowing people to see the public stage on the first floor from the room.

This is the special program of "Naganoya Geisha Museum", the geisha sword dance at night.

However, before the sword dance started, a dispute broke out in the opposite room.

The furious quarrel resounded throughout the geisha hall.

"Hey, hey, how do you prove that I killed "One-Eyed" Shok? To catch thieves and get dirty, anyway, you have to find personal evidence that my Dawn regiment did it? Besides, what if I killed it? He came to trouble me, and he still doesn't allow me to fight back? There's no such rule on the road, right? "

This was Qianjo's voice, and Su Lun's ears perked up when she heard it.

It sounds like the sequelae caused by killing "One-Eyed" Shok before.

However, I was very careful that time. Everyone was killed, and no one was left behind. Even if there is a boat, it can be fooled.

What's more, just like Qianjo said, if you kill it, you will kill it, what else can you do?

"Sister Qianjo is deliberately trying to find fault..."

Sullen guessed something.

I pretended not to know before, probably waiting for now.

Just when he was still guessing who was arguing with Chijo.

Suddenly, there was a sound of broken wood.

Looking at it again, one person smashed the railing and landed in the hall.

Su Lun looked at the swordsman whose body was overflowing with runes, and knew that he was related to the old rune man.

In the next instant, Qianjo also fell down murderously, looking like he was about to fight when he drew his sword.

......

Su Lun asked curiously, "Who is that man?"

Koike's expression was slightly abnormal, "That's the owner of our pavilion, Mr. Aki Aurora."

"'Ghost Sword' Aki? "

When Su Lun heard this, he immediately knew who this guy was.

The other son of the old man Rune is also the most popular one, "Ghost Sword" Aki, a famous mixed-blood swordsman in the pirate city.

The lit runes on this guy are much stronger than his brother he met before. Moreover, the **** black knife with the chrysanthemum pattern in his hand is not simple, and it looks like it is not ordinary.

Su Lun asked again: "That seems to be a famous sword?"

There was something unnatural in Koike's eyes, and he responded, "That's the "Chrysanthemum Shrine Yishou", one of the twelve famous swordsmen of our Shanyin Kingdom. "

"It really is a famous sword..."

Suren took a look.

Although the country of hidden mountains is poor, it also spreads the world's top sword forging skills. The swords that flow out here, even in the upper class of Lu Ying, are top collectibles and combat weapons.

These "Twelve Excellent Swordsmen" are probably equivalent to high-level cursed objects in alchemy, or even [forbidden objects].

Legend has it that these knives of good workmanship are not only sharp and tough, but each of them has been infused with effort by the craftsmen, and has some magical special effects, such as those that make people bleed, those who cut the soul with sword energy, and those who cut past and present marriages. There are special effects of sealing magic, and there are monsters that summon... and so on.

But with the passage of time, the "Twelve Famous Knives" are still handed down, and they are only three or four.

For a small country like Shanyin, the "Chrysanthemum Pattern Shrine One Guard" in front of him is a proper national treasure.

......

The two suddenly fought, the sword energy overflowed, and the geisha hall was cut with gaps everywhere...

Su Lun frowned, but he was not worried.

Qiantiao dares to do it, and has a plan in advance, so naturally he has a certain degree of certainty.

But where does the opportunity come from?

This is the home of the people!

The spirit legend of the "ghost sword" Aki is a fifth-order swordsman, and he also has a famous sword in his hand.

In front of everyone's eyes, Qiantiao does not expose the second stage [Rakshasa Girl], can he take advantage?

Just when Su Lun was thinking about how she would respond, suddenly, without any warning, several ninjas appeared from the four corners of the hall!

"It's not a spatial displacement, it's not a sneak..."

Su Lun's pupils shrank suddenly, and guessed what: "The 'Shadow Shadow Killing Technique' in Shanyin Ninjutsu? This movement technique is a bit powerful..."

Just now, he clearly sensed the fire of the souls of the four ninjas, and it suddenly condensed. But I didn't perceive any spatial fluctuations.

This is a kaya that cannot be explained at the physical level.

He had heard of it before, and now seeing it with his own eyes, he felt it was an eye-opener.

Sure enough, the believers of the gods in the four kingdoms of Beizhou have inherited many strange abilities.

......

"However, this [Xu Flash] is not something that ordinary people can touch. It seems to be a secret biography of ninja from the Shanyin Kingdom. What kind of people did Qianjo know?"

Su Lun's thoughts were flying, and his eyes were slightly solemn.

Because just when Chijo was restraining Nayashi, the four masked ninjas who suddenly appeared suddenly formed a seal, and then a purple square light curtain appeared, creating a space enchantment.

This block, outsiders can no longer see what is happening inside.

Su Lun is very clear that this is not a temporary conflict, but a premeditated ambush!

He hesitated, considering whether to help, when to do it...

But on second thought, if it was really necessary, Qianjo would definitely say it.

Mirror Organization's goblin communicator, even if the space is shielded, can still transmit without obstacles.

The guests in the Geisha House were already a little flustered.

However, the battle came quickly and ended very quickly.

Like magic, as soon as the purple light space enchantment was propped up, it suddenly disappeared in front of him.

Su Lun frowned and said, "The battlefield space has been moved to another place..."

Seeing this, he also wanted to understand the ins and outs of tonight.

Chijo came here to subdue that "Demon Sword" Aki. Moreover, there is a certain force in the Shanyin Kingdom involved.

but why?

Thoughts flashed in Su Lun's mind.

......

While Suren was staying at the Geisha House.

The Pirate City is as lively as ever.

The tallest building in the city is the "Emperor Entertainment City".

On the top floor of the entertainment city, there is a secret hall overlooking the entire city.

This is the long-term private room of "King of the North Sea" Oleg, outsiders are not eligible to enter.

After entering, there is a magnificent and luxurious decoration to the extreme. The golden light shines in the eyes, and pillars made of pure gold can be seen everywhere.

At this moment, Oleg wearing the crown is sitting on the golden throne.

The top powerhouse with a bounty of 8.477 billion yuan is not angry,

In the shadows to the left and right of him sat twenty-three people with different expressions. These are the major fleet commanders of the North Sea Fleet.

These people are all powerful, pressing down the entire golden hall with a kind of solemnity that makes ordinary people suffocate.

And this, in the hall, stood an aloof middle-aged man. His white-washed suit was meticulous and indifferent. Even if he was locked by the eyes of this group of big pirates, there was no fear in his eyes.

On the throne, Oleg's voice sounded domineering and majestic: "Zolas, I have heard of your talent. Lu Ying's pedantic aristocrats don't know how to appreciate it. From now on, you will do things for me."

Zolas said neither humble nor arrogant: "Yes! But I want absolute management rights. Start the reform from the four countries of Beizhou, give me twenty years, and I will make this barren sea a prosperous place that is not inferior to any of Luying's territories. "

Hearing this, the captain of the fleet immediately questioned, "Twenty years? Hehe, we still don't know what we're going to do after twenty years."

Zolas made no secret of his short-sighted contempt, and said loudly: "Since Mr. Oleg has become king, please don't think about this sea area with the thinking of pirates in the past. You are a lord and a king, you should There are people who are responsible for the territory and the people. The reason why I chose to agree to stay here is not for power, but to let more people in this world live with dignity. Now there are Mafa and Luying fighting, this is the rise of the North Sea The best opportunity. Plan for the present, plan for the future!"

As soon as these words came out, the huge hall fell into silence.

Even if these pirates didn't understand his plan, they could clearly feel the powerful "righteousness" of those words.

"Then Mr. Zolas, what do you think we should do first?"

"Start with the taxation of the Shikoku of Kitasu!"

"Hehe, how much tax can the poor mountains and bad waters have? A year's tax might as well go and grab a wave."

"Mr. Oleg, do you think you can mobilize people from the four countries? If not, what is the significance of the King of the North Sea?"

"Not everyone wants to be a pirate for life. If there is a stable life, who wants to take their life? Everyone can, have you thought about your family and descendants?"

"Taxes are not a means of collecting wealth, it's just to make Beizhou Shikoku slowly start to feel a sense of belonging. This process may be difficult, but it has to be done! And, I can guarantee that it will take a few years before Shikoku becomes rich. , this tax will be ten times, a hundred times more than your robbery!"

"..."

Zuolas said these words, all the big pirates who would set off a tsunami in the North Sea when they stomped their feet were silent.

No one can argue.

After a long time, there was a sonorous shout from the throne: "Okay! As you said!"
