People write diaries in Zongwu, and the heroes collapse

Chapter 323 Inner Demon and Master Li

"Ok!"

Miss Li nodded slightly and opened her red lips.

"Is Miss Li still drinking a pound of wine as usual?"

The old man asked with a kind smile.

"Yes."

Miss Li responded.

"Miss Li, wait a moment, I'm going to get you a drink right now."

The old man took the wine bag from Xiaoyun, Miss Li's personal maid, and began to drink.

"Hey, who is this person?"

Xiaoyun asked curiously when he saw a drunkard lying on the table.

Miss Li also noticed this drunkard, but he didn't pay attention to it. There were many drunkards like this in Fanlou, and none of those young men were drunk and in a state of confusion.

The old man glanced at the young man and said slowly: "This is the guest who came two days ago. After he came here, he ordered a lot of wine. He was drunk all day long. No family members came to look for him. The old man I'm thinking that this young man must have encountered some setbacks."

Xiaoyun said softly: "I've seen many young masters like this. I'm afraid he might be frustrated in love."

Miss Li looked at the young man on the table curiously, but he was lying down and she couldn't see his face clearly.

While drinking, the old man looked for a topic and said, "Miss Li, you have to be careful these days. I heard that many people died at the gate of the city in the past two days. I can smell the smell of blood at home."

"I've also heard that it seems that a gangster came to the capital. He killed thousands of Forbidden Army soldiers alone."

Xiaoyun patted his chest and said in a daze.

"Hey, I heard that the little old man killed tens of thousands of forbidden soldiers. He was very cruel."

said the old man.

"I don't know who he is..."

Miss Li said with piercing eyes.

She was yearning for it, thinking that such a person is an unparalleled hero.

For a girl like her, such a great man has deadly poison.

She also heard some things in Fan Lou, but they were just a few words. She only knew that the other person was called Lu Chen, and she didn't know anything else.

For some reason, Miss Li always felt that this Lu Chen was a good person.

She frowned slightly and couldn't help but shake her head slightly. Maybe she thought wrong. After all, everyone outside now said that he was a big devil.

"Dong Dong Qiang..."

At this moment, the sound of a gong was heard outside.

Miss Li walked outside and saw two officials beating gongs at the entrance of the alley. Then the officials shouted loudly: "Every household, listen up. If you see this person, you will report to the government immediately and you will be rewarded with two hundred taels of silver." "

When he saw someone coming, he asked them to look at the portrait.

Miss Li walked over curiously, she wanted to see who was worth so much money.

After she came to the crowd and listened to others pointing, she realized that the person they were looking for was Lu Chen.

"I reported it, will the government really give it to me?"

Someone bravely shouted.

In recent years, the reputation of the government has become extremely bad, and the credibility of the government among the people has basically dropped to the bottom.

The official with the portrait in his hand said, "Of course I'll give it. Take a good look at it. It's this person. If you see it, just come to the government and report it."

Miss Li looked at the face in the portrait. She was quite handsome. I can't say that the painter was a master of painting, but at least he painted it vividly.

When she saw the clothes of the person in the portrait, she looked startled, then raised her head suddenly, her eyes shining.

"Girl, what's wrong?"

Xiaoyun asked curiously.

"Oh, it's nothing. The wine should be ready. Let's go back."

Miss Li took Xiao Yun back. After leaving the crowd, she excitedly grabbed Xiao Yun's shoulders and said, "Xiao Yun, do the clothes of the person in the portrait just now look like the clothes of the drunkard..."

Xiaoyun recalled for a while, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Miss, when you say that, it really sounds like it. If it is really him, then we will make a fortune. This is two hundred taels."

Miss Li gave Xiaoyun a clue and said, "You really have fallen into the eyes of money."

"Girl, what should we do? Pretend we don't know?"

Xiaoyun is only thirteen years old, so he doesn't have any opinions. He relies on his master to make decisions.

Miss Li thought for a while and said, "You can't let others know, otherwise he will be in danger."

After a pause, she continued: "You keep an eye on him for a while. If he doesn't wake up at night, I'll find someone to take him to a safe place."

After going back, the guest was still there. Miss Li breathed a sigh of relief. She was a little excited and walked over. She looked more and more like him, but she also had some doubts in her heart, wondering why he was here.

The old man didn't notice anything strange about Miss Li. He saw that Miss Li seemed to be interested in this guest, so he couldn't help but ask: "Miss Li, do you know him?"

Miss Li was startled for a moment, then replied: "I suddenly remembered that yesterday I heard a sister say that one of his guests hadn't come for several days. She was very worried, but she looked very similar to him."

"That's right."

The old man did not doubt, but said: "In this case, Miss Li, please take him away. If this young man continues to drink like this, I am afraid he will die."

The old man didn't want this young man to die in his shop, otherwise how could his small shop continue to operate.

Miss Li felt happy and said, "Well, let me go back and ask him first. I will take him away in the evening."

The old man didn't think much and nodded in agreement.

His tavern doesn't have much business, only some regular customers.

The official had already left, and the old man did not see the portrait. How could he know that the customer in his shop was exactly the person the official was looking for.

Lu Chen didn't know what was happening outside.

After Lu Chen killed thousands of Forbidden Army soldiers, he suddenly discovered that he had developed an inner demon. Perhaps this inner demon had already arisen, but after killing so many people this time, the inner demon grew stronger and began to affect his mind.

After leaving the city gate, he needed to find a quiet place and came here by accident. After seeing the tavern, he felt moved and walked in.

In order to prevent his inner demon from controlling him, Lu Chen ordered a lot of wine and drank it when he woke up. This continued for two days.

He chose to numb himself with wine because he had no choice but to do so.

In his current state, once the inner demon breaks out, it will be very terrifying. He can only anesthetize himself first.

In fact, to put it bluntly, inner demons are mental, conscious, and psychological obstacles.

The inner demon tempted the owner of the body to walk into the devil's path. Lu Chen had just experienced a killing, and the realm breakthrough was so fast that the inner demon backfired too fast and violently. He couldn't suppress it and could only rely on alcohol to anesthetize himself. , falling into sleep.

As long as Lu Chen didn't wake up, the inner demons in his body would not be able to break out.

People outside were looking for him and speculating on the reason why Lu Chen didn't show up. In fact, it was Lu Chen who was trying to suppress his inner demons.

In the evening, Miss Li appeared wearing a curtain hat, followed by her personal maid Xiaoyun. The old man had closed the shop when it got dark, but it was not until midnight that he saw Miss Li arriving late.

Seeing Miss Li wearing a curtain hat, the old man felt a little strange and asked: "Miss Li, what are you doing?"

Miss Li replied: "I have inquired about it. This young man is the son of a certain minister in the Ministry of Rites. If someone sees it, it will have bad influence if word spreads."

The old man nodded.

Miss Li carefully helped Lu Chen up. After seeing Lu Chen's appearance, it was exactly as seen in the portrait during the day. She let Xiao Yun support her, took off the curtain on her head, and put it on Lu Chen's face. on the head.

Miss Li left two taels of silver. Although the old man was greedy, he refused to accept it, saying that Lu Chen had already paid the money, so she would no longer refuse after seeing this.

So, Miss Li and Xiaoyun struggled to help Lu Chen onto the carriage outside and drove towards Fan Tower.

Arriving at the back door of Fan Tower, the two women helped Lu Chen into Fan Tower.

The coachman watched with envy as Lu Chen was helped in. This boy was so happy. Even when he was drunk, he was accompanied by two beauties.

The women in Fanlou all live in the backyard, but Miss Li is different from the others in that she has a separate attic in the backyard and is treated much better than the other girls.

Fortunately, it was evening now and the girls had all gone to entertain the guests, so no one was seen along the way.

After helping Lu Chen into the room, the two women felt sore in their backs and almost couldn't breathe.

Xiaoyun gasped and complained: "Girl, why do we bring him back? This man is a trouble. The government is looking for him. If anyone knows that he is here, we will all be implicated by him."

Miss Li glanced at Xiaoyun and said, "Xiaoyun, do you want to leave Fan Lou?"

"Of course I do."

Xiaoyun nodded.

She was sold to Fan Lou by her gambling father for only fifty taels of silver.

Fortunately, she was still young and was not forced to accept guests. In addition, she was favored by the girl and became her maid, so her life was better than other girls.

But how could she not want to leave here? In a few years, she would definitely be forced to accept guests.

She wanted to leave here day and night, but she didn't have the ability, so she gave up and just muddle along. Many girls in Fanlou were like this.

As for redeeming herself, it was too difficult. In her current situation, she simply couldn't get the money to redeem herself.

Miss Li glanced at Lu Chen on the bed and said to Xiaoyun, "Whether we can leave Fan Lou depends on him."

"But he is a wanted criminal."

Xiaoyun muttered.

Miss Li pointed Xiaoyun's forehead with her jade finger and said, "What can you think of, can I not think of? I have already inquired about it, he is not a wanted criminal."

In fact, this Miss Li is not an unknown person. She is Master Li, who will make a sensation in the capital in the future. However, she is still young at this time, and Fan Lou is focusing on training her, but she has always wanted to leave Fan Lou, but with her own It is too difficult to leave.

Lu Chen's appearance gave her an opportunity. After coming back today, she deliberately asked some girls she had good friends with.

The girls also heard a lot from the guests in the past two days. They all knew Li Shishi's status in Fanlou and were very fawning to her, so they told her everything they heard.

Although Master Li is not a member of the martial arts world, he also knows what the Grand Master means. Legend has it that the master of the six gates is the Grand Master.

In addition, Master Li also heard news from the Six Gates that Lu Chen was a guest of the Six Gates, and the Six Gates were also looking for him.

Master Li asked around again and found out that Lu Chen was not wanted by the imperial court at all. He had killed so many forbidden soldiers and yet he was not wanted. This made Master Li know how terrifying a grand master was. She had heard someone say that a grand master could make the emperor As a guest of honor, she had always thought it was a joke, but today she finally understood that it was not a joke.

Whether she can leave Fan Lou depends entirely on Lu Chen.

She looked back at Lu Chen, asked Xiaoyun to fetch some water, and wiped Lu Chen's face herself.

Not sure how much time had passed, Lu Chen suddenly opened his eyes and saw the two women sleeping on the table.

Immediately, his eyes caught a glimpse of the wine bag on the table. He stretched out his hand and a suction force came out. The wine bag fell into his hand and he drank it towards his mouth.

Li Shishiqiong, who was lying on the table, twitched her nose and smelled the aroma of wine. She opened her eyes and saw a hint of joy on her face when she saw Lu Chen woke up: "You, you finally woke up."

Lu Chen glanced at her and didn't ask her name, but said hurriedly: "Find me a drink quickly."

The inner demon in his body is still ready to stir up. Once released, Lu Chen will most likely be controlled by the inner demon. All he can do now is numb his nerves and continue to fall into a deep sleep.

Master Li was a little confused and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Xiaoyun was also woken up. He rubbed his eyes and said, "Girl, what's wrong?"

Lu Chen looked at Li Shishi with evil eyes. Li Shishi had never seen such terrifying eyes before. These eyes were like bloodthirsty beasts that would devour her weak body at any time.

"Buy me wine, buy me lots of wine."

Lu Chen took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and threw them at the woman. Then he poured the wine from the wine bag into his mouth.

"Go!"

Seeing that Master Li didn't move, Lu Chen roared.

Master Li came back to his senses, picked up the banknotes on the ground and left the room with Xiaoyun. Looking at the banknotes in his hands, there were actually three thousand taels, and he couldn't help but clicked his tongue.

"Wow, that's a lot of money."

Xiaoyun has never seen so many banknotes before, and his eyes are full of banknotes.

Master Li collected the banknotes quietly. These banknotes could not be known to others, especially his mother.

"Miss, it's so late, where can I buy wine?"

Xiaoyun reluctantly withdrew his gaze and then asked.

"You're stupid, isn't the wine cellar in the backyard?"

Master Li said angrily.

Only then did Xiaoyun realize that he was so stupid. There was plenty of wine in their Fanlou wine cellar. The reason why the girl went out to buy wine was because the girl was used to drinking the wine sold in that tavern, and secondly because if she often I came to the wine cellar once or twice to get wine, but no one said anything. If I came often, I would definitely be gossiped about. I might as well go outside and buy wine myself.

However, it was getting late now and the tavern must have been closed long ago.

The two immediately went to the wine cellar and brought back two jars of good wine.

When Lu Chen saw the wine, he immediately became energetic, opened the wine and poured it into his mouth.

"Is this a cow?"

Xiaoyun said dumbfounded that she had seen some wealthy people in the fan building, but their drinking capacity was not as strong as they boasted.

After pouring a jar of wine into his stomach, Lu Chen became drunk. He warned the two women: "Don't let anyone know that I am here, otherwise you will be in trouble."

After saying that, he picked up another jar of wine and drank it.
