Chapter 118

Lightning struck.

The street that had just been shrouded in night was illuminated for a moment, and fell into a deeper night again.

The thunder rolled.

On the street, pedestrians were in a hurry, and vendors hurriedly packed their things.

The whole street was in a mess.

The weather changed as it said it would, without any sign at all.

Luo Qingzhou shuttled through the rushing crowd, along the road to Jubao Pavilion, looking for every avenue and every alley one by one.

A whole hour.

They searched almost all the streets in the inner city, but they couldn't find that icy figure.

Could it be that he lost his way, crossed the bridge, and went to the outer city?
Luo Qingzhou was thinking, not daring to rest, and continued walking towards the outer city.

It's a pity that there will be thunder and lightning from time to time, otherwise he would be out of his body and look down from the heights, which is naturally much easier.

Shenhun has a natural fear of thunder and lightning.

And most of the treasures that deal with spirits contain some power of lightning.

Even those with strong spirits and souls dare not fly in the sky when there is thunder and lightning at will.

Unless, it is the super powerful soul that has survived the thunder disaster.

I don't know what kind of state that senior soul who always stands on the cornice of the mandarin duck tower is now.

In the past few nights, he no longer has to go out of his body to go to Yuanyang Tower.

Because the eldest princess is coming, the security in Mo City has been strengthened a lot. Not only are warriors patrolling, but some magic weapons to restrain ghosts have also been placed.

The spirit senior probably won't go there for the time being.

Luo Qingzhou was thinking about things all the way, and walked quickly towards the outer city.

At this time, dark clouds overwhelmed the city.

The whole sky was dark.

A storm is coming.

The streets are already empty, pedestrians and vendors are all gone.

All the shops facing the street also closed their doors and used tables and stools to stand up against the sudden bad weather.

Luo Qingzhou became anxious and quickened his pace.

After exiting the gate of the inner city, crossing the stone bridge over the moat, we came to the outer city with obviously low and dilapidated houses.

After searching aimlessly for a while, he suddenly thought of something.

When the girl followed him out, she thought he was going to the brothel to find the naked oiran, and if she lost her, would she...

He glanced left and right, hurried into a shop that was closing, and asked the shop owner directly: "Boss, do you know where there is a brothel nearby?"

Female boss: "..."

Luo Qingzhou was scolded and kicked out by the female boss with a broom.

He had to find it himself.

Brothels are generally open 24 hours, and they are brightly lit and beautifully decorated, which can be seen from a long distance.

Usually, the rainier the weather, the better the brothel's business.

Because at this time, many shops and markets were closed, people had nowhere to go, and there were few places to entertain, so many people went to brothels if they had money in their pockets.

Of course, there are also those who go to drink tea and listen to operas.

Luo Qingzhou walked through the streets and alleys, and finally found a brothel with colorful lights hanging on it. He walked over and took a look, but he didn't find the figure outside.

Ordinarily, Miss Xia Chan would not go in.

He went to another brothel.

Outside the second brothel, there was still no one.

At this time, the dark clouds in the sky became thicker and thicker, and the thunder became louder and louder.

There is not a single pedestrian on the street.

Luo Qingzhou ran towards another street like a headless chicken.

Following a man, he found the third brothel.

Suddenly, under the big tree on the left side of the door, he saw three drunk men talking drunkenly around a familiar figure.

That figure was holding a sword in his hand, his face was cold, and he stood motionless, his eyes were fixed on the door of the brothel, as if he regarded the three men as air.

It was Xia Chan!

Luo Qingzhou immediately walked over quickly, and heard one of the men laughing and saying: "Girl, you have been staring there, it is your husband who doesn't want you, did you go to find a woman to play with? Tsk tsk, that Men are really nothing, to leave such a beautiful little girl here alone, I am blind. Girl, you don't need such a man, why not follow... ah!"

The man hadn't finished speaking when suddenly a hand grabbed his neck from behind, and he was thrown out, falling heavily to the ground.

Seeing this scene, the other two men next to them were about to throw their punches while drinking, when Luo Qingzhou kicked them one by one, kicking them to the ground.

"walk home."

Luo Qingzhou looked at the cold girl in front of him with a serious expression.

It turned out that this girl really came to squat him in the brothel!

The girl clenched the sword in her hand, stared at him with cold eyes, then looked at the alluring woman at the door of the brothel who was twisting her waist and hips to attract everyone, then looked at him again, and said coldly: "You ……inside?"

"No."

Luo Qingzhou replied briefly: "I went home and found that you were not there, and came out to look for you again. I just found you here."

The girl still held the hilt of the sword, not speaking.

Luo Qingzhou could only say: "I swear, if I tell a lie, there will be a thunderbolt!"

"Boom!"

At this moment, a thunderstorm suddenly sounded in the sky.

Immediately, "crackling", bean-sized raindrops began to fall.

Luo Qingzhou: "...Well, I really didn't lie, if you don't believe me, you can go back and ask Miss Bailing, she won't help me lie to you, will she?"

The girl paused, and slowly let go of the hilt.

"Boy! You..."

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The three men were about to stand up and yell at each other when they were kicked one by one and fell to the ground.

"Let's go, go home, it's going to rain heavily."

Looking at the cold girl in front of him, Luo Qingzhou urged.

The girl was no longer stubborn, and followed behind with her head bowed.

The two left the street one after the other.

The heavy rain suddenly poured down, and the sky was still full of lightning and thunder.

Luo Qingzhou found that the girl behind him was close to him, even clinging to his body. Whenever there was thunder, her body would tremble slightly.

"It seems that Bailing didn't lie to me. It turns out that this girl is so timid..."

Drenched in heavy rain, the two of them crossed the stone bridge over the moat and rushed towards the inner city.

However, just after crossing the bridge, they suddenly found that the gate of the inner city had been closed.

Luo Qingzhou's complexion changed slightly, and he secretly cried out that something was wrong.

He forgot that recently, because the eldest princess was coming to Mocheng, the inner city was much more heavily guarded at night, and the closing time of the city gate was much earlier.

He hurried over and pushed the heavy city gate, wanting to see if the gate was just ajar, but found that the gate was tightly closed, motionless.

Apparently, a heavy deadbolt had been put on the back of the door.

At this time, even if there are guards inside the door, they will never open the door for him.

"Boom!"

The night sky was covered with dark clouds, and lightning and thunder continued.

The torrential rain showed no sign of stopping.

Suddenly there was an angry shout on the city wall: "People below, don't stay in front of the city gate, be careful with bows and arrows!"

Luo Qingzhou looked up and didn't say much, so he ran to the girl who was also drenched in the rain and said: "The city gate is closed, we can't get in, we have to find a place to stay tonight .Go to the outer city to open a... Find an inn, and go back tomorrow, okay?"

The girl froze for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Luo Qingzhou immediately took her across the stone bridge and returned to the outer city.

As a result, they found two inns in a row, and the shop owners drove them out.

"Recently, the Eldest Princess is coming to Mo City. The government has strictly checked her. There is no identity certificate, and no acquaintances to bring it with her. If any inn accepts it, she will not only be fined for money, but also jailed. I'm really sorry, two guests. .”

All the same words.

The two of them wandered on the street again, drenched in heavy rain, not knowing where to go.

"sneeze……"

When Luo Qingzhou was thinking of a solution, he suddenly heard the girl behind him sneezed.

No more rain everywhere.

He suddenly turned around and said: "Miss Xia Chan, let's go to the brothel, there should be no ID proof there, let's go in and find a place to live, overnight, do you think it's okay?"

The girl stayed where she was, and rejected him with cold eyes.

"sneeze……"

She sneezed again, then turned away from him.

Luo Qingzhou had no choice but to say: "Then we can only go to the last place, under the bridge hole, where you can shelter from the rain and be drier, but it's a bit cold, can you bear it?"

The girl didn't answer, she just raised her feet and walked towards the stone bridge.

Luo Qingzhou sighed and could only follow behind her.

The two of them came to the stone bridge one after the other, and then went down from the side and entered the dark stone cave.

Weeds were overgrown in the cave, and there was an unpleasant smell.

But at least it won't rain anymore.

In the middle of the night, there were also warriors patrolling the streets of the outer city. If they stayed on the streets, they would probably be arrested and interrogated if they were discovered.

So it's still safer here.

Luo Qingzhou found a clean grass, took off his shirt, and said: "Miss Xia Chan, sit here, it's cleaner here."

The girl walked to the grass, sat down, bent her legs, held the sword in her arms, her thin body trembling slightly.

Luo Qingzhou wrung out the water in the jacket, and put it on again.

Both sides of the bridge hole are ventilated, and the temperature dropped sharply due to the rain, making it very cold.

Luo Qingzhou walked out from the other side, went to the river to pick up many dead branches, and piled them up in front of the girl.

I went out two more times and brought back a lot of dead branches that were soaked by rain.

Fortunately, not long after the heavy rain fell, these dead branches were only wet on the surface, and the inside was still dry.

Luo Qingzhou first lit the dead grass and leaves picked up from the bridge hole, and then set up the dry firewood.

Smoke rose in the bridge hole.

The damp dry wood quickly "cracked" and burned.

Due to the deep bridge hole and the wind, rain, thunder and lightning outside, no one could notice it.

After the bonfire was lit, Luo Qingzhou took off all his shirts and sat down opposite the girl naked, starting to warm the clothes in his hands.

The two sat opposite each other without speaking.

There was silence in the bridge hole, only the occasional sound of dry wood burning.

When the coat was almost baked, he got up and walked to the girl opposite, and said, "Take off your coat, I'll bake it for you, and you put on my clothes to be warmer."

Holding the sword in her arms, the girl glanced at the clothes in his hand, and then at his naked upper body. She was silent for a while, only took his coat and wrapped it around her body.

The large man's coat wrapped her slender body, making her look even weaker and weaker.

Luo Qingzhou didn't force her anymore, put on the underwear under her body, sat down beside her, added firewood, and said softly: "The clothes are wet, if you wear them inside, you will feel uncomfortable and even get sick. You're wearing obscene clothes inside, and I won't look at you, why don't you take them off?"

The girl turned her face away and said nothing.

The swaying firelight reflected on her pretty little face, even though it was still as cold as snow, it was still charming.

Luo Qingzhou took a look, then at the shoes under her skirt, and said, "If it's inconvenient to take off the clothes, you can take off the shoes and socks and bake them. The shoes will be full of water, and it will be very uncomfortable."

After speaking, he took off his shoes and socks and roasted them on the fire.

In the bridge hole, silence was restored again.

Luo Qingzhou baked for a while, put the shoes and socks that were not water-stained by the fire, continued to bake, then turned to look at her and said: "You are a martial arts practitioner, why stick to these? As long as you are comfortable, you don't have to You must care too much about other people's eyes. What's more, I'm the only one here, and I won't say it."

The girl was silent for a while, Fang turned his face to look at him, and said coldly: "You...do you want to, look at me?"

"No."

Luo Qingzhou calmly denied it, and said: "I can go out, you can take off the roast yourself, and I'll come in after the roast is finished, is that okay? I just think that you are uncomfortable like this, and you will get sick."

The girl stared at him blankly, and remained silent for a while. Fang lowered his head slightly, stretched out one foot in front of him, turned away his pretty face, and said in a low voice, "Take off."

Luo Qingzhou froze for a moment, then looked at her stretched out slender feet.
