Great Blue Night Watchman

Chapter 6 Beauty is like a flower in Haining Tower

In Lin Jialiang's study, there are a large number of books, all thread-bound, including Lun Yu, Tao Te Ching, and Spring and Autumn. These classics are all rough and have obviously been read countless times.

Lin Su touched it lightly with his fingers, and in his brain, on the dead branch, more than a dozen leaves quietly formed.

No one would have thought that he would become a scholar in just a few steps, which is equivalent to more than ten years of hard study for scholars in this world.

Next to more than a dozen classics of various schools of thought, there was also a book with a yellow cover. Lin Su opened it and saw that The Collection of Poems of Da Cang Cai had a paragraph at the beginning: This book contains 371 famous poets from Da Cang over the past thousand years. The works of a poetic genius include four hundred and eight poems, all of which are colorful and colorful poems. The fragrance of poetry has been passed down to the world and will last for thousands of years.

The first poem Night Rain in the Western Forest, Half the city is covered with mist and rain in the Western Forest, thousands of peaks are covered with mist and dense trees... The author Ren Zifu, a native of Dacang Zhongzhou, was born in the 108th year of the Cangli calendar and died in the 146th year of the Cangli calendar. This poem …

The second song Ti Ling Hidden Wall...

The third song Winter...

After reading more than thirty songs, none of them were familiar to him.

Lin Su put down the collection of poems and his eyes were attracted by a book next to him. This book was called Miscellaneous Talks on Literary Ways. Lin Su opened the book and his eyes lit up. This book recorded in detail the literary ways of this world. All the saints were there. God, bestow upon the world the great power of liberal arts, what is liberal arts, what are the steps, how to advance, taboos of liberal arts...

Among the literary taboos, it is clearly written: When a literati encounters a major setback or is humiliated in public, the literary world will be dusted. Once dusted, his literary thoughts will not be smooth, and it will be difficult to advance further in the literary world. In serious cases, the literary road will be cut off here, and he will have nothing to do with useless people. different……

Lin Su's heart skipped a beat, it turned out that the literary society could really cut off the humanistic path and ruin a person's lifelong pursuit!

In the drawer under the desk, he smelled a strange fragrance as soon as he opened it. Inside was a piece of yellow paper, carefully wrapped with half an incense stick. The incense was golden in color and seemed to be made of gold. This is what is in the book. Said holy incense.

Lin Su thought for a while, picked up the half of the holy incense, and carefully hid it in his arms...

There was a soft knock at the study door, and Lin Su turned around suddenly and saw Xiaoyao.

Xiaoyao was holding a big bowl: Brother, you are here. I have been looking for you all over.

How is my second brother? Lin Su asked.

Asleep, Sister Xiaotao is taking care of you. Xiaoyao brought the big bowl over: Drink this bowl of porridge, Niang... Oh, Madam said, you are not in good health, so you can't be careless.

After Lin Su finished half a bowl of rice porridge, his stomach and intestines finally felt a little warmer. He suddenly saw a glimmer of light at the corner of Xiao Yao's mouth...

Lin Su couldn't drink anymore: Did you not have breakfast?

Xiaoyao nodded, then quickly shook his head: I ate some dough last night. I was hungry for the dough, but I'm not hungry at all... He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and he really couldn't control his voice...

Lin Su handed the remaining half bowl of thin soup to her: Drink it.

Xiaoyao took it hesitantly and drank the soup, finishing it all. She also licked the bottom of the bowl. This bowl basically didn't need to be washed.

Lin Su said: Xiaoyao, do you want to eat meat?

Meat? Xiaoyao's throat moved, and the familiar glint appeared at the corner of her mouth. She slowly shook her head: Brother, Xiaotao said there is no more meat in the house, really...

No, I'll take you to a banquet and have a delicious meal...

Xiaoyao's eyes suddenly brightened, as bright as two little stars...

He and Xiaoyao reached an agreement about going to the banquet immediately, but they were stuck on Mother Lin's side: What did you say? You went to the banquet? It's a gathering of literati... Why are you getting involved?

Lin Su took out the invitation: But mother, they sent out the invitation. What will they say if the Lin family does not attend? They will say that there is no one in my Lin family. They will say that my Lin family is really guilty and they dare not show up in public.

Mother Lin's persistence in her heart was a little shaken...

After a long time, Mother Lin said: You heard it just now. This article is unusual. It is most likely an attempt by the Zhang family to suppress the Lin family...

What can he suppress me for? I don't even have literary roots, how can he cut off my literary path?

This sentence completely dispelled the last worry in Mrs. Lin's mind. Yes, the Zhang family would make trouble at the cultural meeting. It was certainly dangerous for Erlang to go, but what could Sanlang lose?

If you have nothing, you have nothing to lose!

Mother Lin's face slowly softened: ...I'm afraid that you have a bad temper in the past, and you will fly into a rage when others provoke you...Forget it, just listen more and talk less!

Yes! Lin Sula pulled Xiaoyao and walked out of the courtyard.

The little girl urgently wiped the crystal from the corner of her mouth and went on her way happily.

Go to Haining Tower.

Along the way, Lin Su raised his eyes, looked at the horizon, and said softly in his heart: From today on, I will bear the burden of the Lin family!

Not far from Haining Tower, it is on the east side of Haizhou City, facing the Yangtze River in the east, with green willows blooming gently. In this season, it would be a pity not to be a place where you can sing the wind and make moonlight.

From the outside, Haining Building only had three floors and was no more than ten meters high. But when he stepped inside, Lin Su was so surprised that he almost couldn't believe his eyes.

There is a main hall in the middle, surrounded by buildings. The buildings are clearly more than ten stories high, forty or fifty meters high!

Two people entered Haining Building at the same time as them. One of them was obviously shocked by this bizarre sight. The person next to him explained to him: This is Wen Dao Weili!

Did you see the word corridor?

The word qi!

This character was written by Deng Xianchu, the most literary scholar, asking for the daughter of Haining Tower. Once this character was hung, the literary power changed the world. The three-story building of Haining Tower was copied exactly four times, so the internal space was twelve times. A high-rise building!

Lin Su was dumbfounded. With one word, nine floors were added to the downtown area out of thin air. How could he think that if such a word was used in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, it would cost a fortune...

Where is Xiaoyao?

Lin Su followed her gaze and saw roast chicken and lamb on the tables on both sides.

Gudong! The two of them swallowed at the same time.

The two of them stepped into Haining Building and were blocked by a waiter at the gate. The waiter said with a smile: Mr. Lin, I haven't seen you for a while. I'm sorry that I have business to do in Haining Building today. You are a fighting cock and a lackey. Those jobs are on hold.”

It seems that this person still knows him!

But what does this person mean? In the past, did I only know how to fight cocks and lackeys?

Lin Su's face was straight: What are you talking about? What I am participating in today is your business!

You? Haha... The waiter smiled...

With a swish sound, an invitation was placed in front of the waiter. The waiter's laughter stopped suddenly and his eyes widened...

Lin Su swaggered past him and went up to the second floor. As soon as the invitation was displayed, the receptionists on the second floor were much more qualified. When he saw the invitation, he bowed slightly and said, The Lin family... a distinguished guest!

On the wine table, all the scholars raised their heads at the same time. In the position closest to the river in front, several chatting and laughing scholars also turned around at the same time. Under the window on the right, a veiled woman raised her hand lightly and made a clang sound. , the guzheng played a welcoming sound.

Suddenly they were all stunned. As long as someone from the Lin family was attending the meeting, it was Lin Jialiang. However, the person who stepped up the stairs was not Lin Jialiang, but a handsome young man. Some of them also knew this young man. He was the third eldest son of the Lin family, Wen Jialiang. He is a dandy who is not good at anything, and I heard that he disappeared some time ago. What song is he playing? The scholars were a little confused as they whispered to each other...

Lin Su looked around and planned to find a place to sit down.

But I saw a wealthy young man at the top standing up and cupping his hands: Third Young Master, isn't your brother here?

Lin Su was stunned, looked at the young master, and asked the young master next to him: This young master is so rich, I wonder who he is?

The person next to him said: Young Master Zhang Xiu, the best showman in Quzhou, has been seen by Third Young Master before, why did he forget it today?

Lin Su smiled and said: I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang, I was seriously ill earlier and lost many unimportant memories...

The smile on Zhang Xiu's face was a little stiff. What does it mean that unimportant memories have been lost? I am actually unimportant in your memory?

But the stiffness on his face instantly relaxed: Mr. Jialiang has known himself to the girl of Yulou. Today, the girl of Yulou resigns from the building. What a big deal it is? Mr. Jialiang avoids him. I don't know why?

Lin Su explained: My mother was sick, and my brother wrote Qi Guiding Wen twice a day to treat her illness. My mother got better a little, but my brother fell ill, so my younger brother came to attend the Yulou on his behalf. It's my sister's farewell party. I'm so glad to see you. I'm sorry...

Make a reunion salute to all directions...

A voice came: Yu Lou didn't know about Lin's family affairs before, so he took the liberty to hand over the invitation. I apologize for the rudeness.

Lin Su looked to the left.

There is a bead curtain on the left. Behind the bead curtain is a group of brothel girls. To be precise, there are five small square formations. The five square formations naturally have five cores. Each core is a beautiful woman, surrounded by three or four The maids surrounding him were like stars surrounding the moon.

The person who asked the question was the very center, a woman dressed in fine clothes, with skin as thick as gel, eyebrows as distant as mountains, and a pair of bright eyes like two spring waters. She looked like a beautiful woman, but her brows turned slightly, and her demeanor was astonishing. Fang, it seems that the spring tide of time is flowing through his eyes instantly.

She is the protagonist of today’s Cilou Banquet: Yulou.

Lin Su's heart suddenly moved. Is this the confidante that the second brother is interested in? As expected, he is extraordinary, intellectual, polite, and generous.

Lin Su smiled and said: Fortunately, it has passed. My brother only had excessive consumption of literary energy, and his health is not serious. He will recover in a few days.

Yulou breathed a sigh of relief: Third Young Master, please take a seat and enjoy some food and wine as you wish.

Behind the bead curtain, the five women in the square looked at each other, and they all saw something strange in each other's eyes. These people were also courtesans, Qin Xiangjun of Baihua Tower, Li Rushi of Lilac Tower, Du Yuebo of Zuixiang Tower...

They are all pilgrims in the land of dreams, lovely people in the gentle grave...

Yulou is retiring from the building today, and the sisters from the past gathered together to give her a ride...

Although the brothel is ruthless, it also has a certain mist and mist.

All the brothels are in the same situation and have the same results. They regard resigning from the brothel and returning home as their second reincarnation, but they take it very seriously.

Sister, Mr. Lin is not here today. Do you really believe that he is seriously ill and cannot come? Qin Xiangjun sighed quietly.

What kind of moment is it today? He actually fell ill and fell ill! Li Rushi said: It's true... In the past, the visitors in front of the building were all unlucky people...

Du Yuebo sighed: Don't say that, the Lin family is in such a situation, it actually makes no difference whether Second Young Master Lin comes or not...

The whispers from the inside of the bead curtain could not reach the restaurant, and only Yulou could hear it. She did not speak, and a faint sigh was firmly locked between her lips...

There was a gentle sound of the guzheng, and the whole building was silent.

Lin Su raised his eyes, and a beautiful woman in costume walked out from the middle: Dear talents, today is the banquet for Miss Yulou's resignation, and it is also the first gift for Miss Prajna. Therefore, Haining Tower invites all the talents to witness this moment together. , I would like to use your wonderful pen to compose this period of snow, moon, wind and flowers...

Someone next to Lin Su whispered quietly, which made Lin Su understand what resigning from the brothel and what the top gift is. To put it bluntly, the old courtesan abdicates and the new top court official takes office. The courtesan is the leader of the brothel. Once he becomes the top court official, he will She is no longer an ordinary brothel girl, but a famous prostitute. The value of a famous prostitute has skyrocketed. Even if she is a visitor from the officialdom, she has to be received by a famous prostitute to gain face...

After the beautiful woman finished speaking, she clapped her hands, and eight beauties came out from behind her, all of them were famous prostitutes from the third floor of Yuxiang Tower. The famous prostitutes walked towards the beaded curtain on the left, opened the beaded curtain, and bowed at the same time. I invited Sister Yulou to play Xie Lou Qu.

The Song of Xie Lou is a song that must be played when the oiran abdicates the throne. It is not only a thank you for the past benefactors, but also a curtain call. The so-called song ends and everyone goes away.

Yulou bowed to his former sisters and slowly raised his head: In the thirteen years that Yulou has been relying on the building, I have received special favor from all the talented people and benefactors. I am very grateful. Now that I am old and can no longer serve the benefactors, with my mother's permission, As I bid farewell to the building, I just use this song to express my gratitude to our benefactors and to pay tribute to the Chinese New Year.

After the curtain call was finished, after returning to the guqin, his delicate hand dropped, Ding Dong...

At the end of the year, there are no yellow flowers, the shape is broken in the southeast, and the meandering water is mournful. My heart is like the moon, and I can't get it. The laurel hall is too high to be by your side...

The music of the piano is gentle, and her singing is even more lingering in my heart. Every word, every word, seems to be a gentle breath coming from the bottom of my heart. The whole building is silent, only these poetic lyrics, like a picture scroll of playing the piano, There are also sounds of tinkling and wisps of silk and bamboo...
