Chapter 468： human desires are like rolling stones

Fern Ji nodded in satisfaction when she saw Zhou Fangwu.

No matter Zhou Fangwu's appearance or dress, they all conform to her aesthetic standards.

For the time being let go of the shop owner who disturbed her rest.

Then she came to Zhou Fangwu's side step by step with light steps, put on a gorgeous kimono and sat down slowly.

There were no prologues, and no groveling.

Even after she was helped to sit down, she continued talking to the boss of the flower house without looking at it.

It's as if she is the owner of the store.

Do you feel confident, or do you not care at all?

Everything is so natural.

It's a pity that the beautiful and coquettish oiran was in front, and neither of them focused their eyes on her.

Ono was trembling with fear, lowering his head and not daring to look.

But Zhou Fangwu has been looking through the window, looking at the chaotic small piece of the street outside.

On the street on the first floor directly opposite, there is a pair of brother and sister.

They are being bullied.

The elder brother's thin body curled up desperately, protecting the younger sister in his arms from being hurt, even if the skin was torn apart from the beating, he never let go.

This stubborn appearance, on the contrary, stimulated the brutality of the person who beat him.

Dull humming and constant yelling and cursing.

But Zhou Fangwu saw that the little girl had no fear at all.

No crying, no panic.

She even stared viciously at the man who beat her brother, as if imprinting the appearance of this brutal warrior man in her mind.

Fallen Ji also saw it.

When she realized that Zhou Fangwu's attention was not on herself, she followed her gaze to the small corner of the first floor outside the window where the chaos occurred.

But there was no response at all.

indifferent.

At the beginning, it really made people feel pity. They felt that the brothers and sisters were extremely pitiful and weak, and people couldn't help stretching out their hands to rescue them.

But gradually, it became numb.

It happens here every day.

There are too many people suffering here, and everyone has unspeakable difficulties, no matter how much they can be saved, they will not be able to get over.

She has lived for hundreds of years, and this kind of thing is even more common.

Rather, she hated the siblings even more.

— so ugly!

Finally, the brutal samurai stopped.

It was stopped by other passers-by who couldn't see past.

The two siblings looked miserable with bruised noses and swollen faces, and finally staggered and cuddled each other and left.

The flow of people began to surge again, and the unique bustle of Flower Street was restored.

This was just an episode, so naturally it couldn't attract the attention of other people, and even most people didn't care.

Being in this chaotic place is nothing more than going from one extreme to another, or... dying silently.

"Tea, please."

Luo Ji placed a cup of brewed tea in front of Zhou Fangwu and Ono.

"Well, thank you." Zhou Fangwu didn't pause at all, he raised his teacup and took a sip.

If it was someone else from the Ghost Killing Squad, they might consider whether Luo Ji had tampered with it, and wouldn't drink it so neatly.

But Zhou Fangwu's physique is different from that of ordinary people, and he is not afraid of Luo Ji's petty tricks at all.

"Thank you...?" Luo Ji looked at Zhou Fangwu's appearance, nodded clearly, and said, "It seems that the guest is not a local."

"Oh? Where did you see it?" Zhou Fangwu asked curiously.

"The guest's clothes are extravagant and extravagant, and I think he is a high-ranking person, but I have never met you, and..." Luo Ji looked at Ono, and said: "Ono from Huajie is here, plus the distinguished guests I know Not as polite as you."

This is also of course.

It is said to be an oiran, but it is just an oiran.

Even if she is admired and admired by everyone, she still looks like a willow in the flower street. She is still inferior in front of high-ranking officials and nobles, and everything she does is taken for granted, not to mention that Zhou Fangwu said to her Thank you.

But at the same time, those rich kids who pretended to be in front of her were all regarded as food by her.

Zhou Fangwu looks handsome and polite.

Instead, she got her approval.

"Miss Fern Ji was joking, she is just an ordinary person, how can she be called a distinguished guest?"

"Isn't it a distinguished guest if you dress like this?"

"Ah, this is just a reward from others."

Zhou Fangwu waved his hands, pretending not to care and said: "Because I made a little contribution, I just got a reward from the Emperor."

"A trivial contribution?"

"I found a special plant... Cough, sorry, this is a confidential matter, so I didn't say anything about it."

Zhou Fangwu just showed that he wanted to show off, but at the last moment, he realized that something was wrong, and he was afraid of leaking some important information and shut up.

The keen Fern Ji found out immediately.

"The blue other shore flower?"

"Ahem, I didn't say it, I didn't say it."

Although Zhou Fangwu said so, but with that 'you are very smart' expression, coupled with the secretly smug look, Luo Ji naturally understood.

From Luo Ji's point of view, the man in front of him thought that he needed to keep it secret for some reason, but he wanted to show off, which completely exposed him.

Sure enough, it was the person that Lord Onimai Tsuji was looking for!

But she subconsciously wondered, is it such a coincidence?

Luo Ji is naturally not an idiot.

Such a simple question made her wonder whether Zhou Fangwu had any purpose.

But before she could ask, Zhou Fangwu spoke first.

He patted Ono's shoulder vigorously, pretending to be very satisfied and said: "As expected of a know-it-all in Huajie, Fern Ji Oiran is really beautiful! Don't worry, your money will not be short of you!"

After finishing speaking, he generously took out a silver bar from his arms, stuffed it into his hand, and then gave him a gentle push.

Just lead a way, there is a reward of a silver bar.

It can be said that it is very rich.

It can also be seen from the side that Zhou Fangwu has indeed received a lot of rewards from the emperor.

There is also a 'reasonable' explanation for the source of the money.

Ono knew that Zhou Fangwu was telling him to leave.

"Yes, yes, it's great that you are satisfied." He also took the silver bar very cooperatively, bowed his head and said: "In this case, the little one will leave first, I hope you can have a good night with Fern Ji Oiran. "

Seeing this, Fern Ji also understood.

Xiao Yeben was from Huajie and was doing the same job as her brother before, so she brought Zhou Fangwu here after hearing Zhou Fangwu's request.

Wait for Ono to leave safely.

Only then did Zhou Fangwu laugh, and said, "Fern Ji Oiran, you also know that sometimes you have to ask a professional about such things."

"I don't know how the guest told Xiao Ye?"

"Of course it's 'Take me to the most beautiful oiran in Huajie'!"

"Well, of course I am the most beautiful oiran."

Luo Ji acted as if it was a matter of course, as if the fact was indeed the case.

"Does the guest think I'm pretty?"

"Beautiful! It's the most beautiful in 'Flower Street'!"

Hearing her question, Zhou Fangwu deliberately emphasized the words to let her find out.

Luo Ji's hand pouring tea paused in mid-air.

Eyes slanted sideways, mouth pursed, looking unhappy.

But she didn't have a seizure.

Zhou Fangwu asked again: "Miss Yuji, what do you think of that little girl just now?"

"what?"

"I've looked carefully. That little girl is a beauty embryo. As long as she grows up smoothly, she will become a beautiful and extraordinary girl, even comparable to an oiran."

Zhou Fangwu said softly: "I think it's because of that appearance that others covet it."

"So what? It's all bad for the brothers and sisters!" Luo Ji squinted her eyes slightly, and said unhappily: "If you are hurt by others, you must fight back, and if you encounter misfortune, you must plunder his happiness. This kind of reincarnation."

Just like she said.

The protected little girl stared at the samurai boy who beat her brother even at the last moment, as if she wanted to engrave his appearance in her mind.

If the little girl grows up smoothly and becomes an oiran by relying on her beautiful appearance, one can imagine how she will get revenge.

"A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye?"

"A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye...that's right! This is her fate!"

Fallen Ji likes Zhou Fangwu's words But what about after that? "

Zhou Fangwu asked again: "I don't hate this way of life, but if a person has gained great power, what will happen after revenge? Do you always limit yourself with this standard of behavior, or do you say you will Become a brutal samurai man to wantonly unleash force to bully others?"

"What's the meaning?"

"People's desire is like a rolling stone on a high mountain. Once it starts, it can't stop. It will only roll faster and faster."

Zhou Fangwu has already made it clear.

It is a metaphor that Luo Ji can no longer restrain her cruelty, and has taken the initiative to plunder other people's happiness.

The little girl who was bullied at the beginning has turned into a demon who treats human beings as food.

Fell into the abyss that cannot be rescued.
