Chapter 673: Harem (Part 9)
The east of Hougong City is full of restaurants and restaurants.
The streets here are very wide and the distance between buildings is relatively far, because there are many Ying trees planted on the open space here (trees unique to the Shengyuan World, with branches like crystals, leaves like gems, and flowers blooming green, clear and beautiful in the night).
Phoenix Month is the season when Ying trees bloom, and the twelfth day of Phoenix Month is the full moon day in the Shengyuan World.
At this time of year, all the shops in the east of Hougong City are full. Especially the window seats on the upper floors of some restaurants, which may not be booked even if you have money...
The most famous among them is a restaurant called "Dengyuan Tower".
The dishes, wines, decorations and services of this restaurant are impeccable, and the most important thing is... the three-story elegant seats of this restaurant are the best viewing place in the east of the city.
I don’t know when it started, being able to "sit in the elegant seats of Dengyuan Tower on the night of Phoenix Month" became a symbol of status and strength.
People seemed to have reached a consensus - those who could sit there at that moment could enjoy the most beautiful moon, the most beautiful flowers... and the most beautiful people in the Shengyuan world at the same time. This kind of enjoyment... is indeed not accessible to everyone.
Ji Xunlong herself had naturally heard of this saying, so she deliberately set a rule that if you want to sit in that seat, you must "be famous in June, and have a pair of top treasures."
The meaning of these three sentences is: First, if you want to sit in that seat, you must arrive in the harem city six months in advance, and you must stay in the city for half a year and cannot leave for a moment; second, your reputation must be loud enough, and those characters who are unknown even if you report your name should not even think about it; third, normal consumption does not count, if you want to reserve this seat, you must first hand in two "top treasures".
The so-called "top treasure" is an extremely powerful magic weapon. The Shengyuan world has five levels of magic weapons: inferior, lower, middle, upper, and highest. And the value of the top treasure... has basically exceeded the range that Yuanmai can estimate.
It must be said that City Lord Ji is still very business-minded. Not only Dengyuanlou, but most other shops in the east of the city also offered various similar conditions. In order to see Ji Xunlong's peerless appearance on the twelfth day of Phoenix Moon, there are many people who are willing to spend money. And Ji Xunlong is also happy to take advantage of this. Those people are willing to pay for all the expenses of the harem city, which is great...
Seeing this, I believe you have guessed it... The day when Feng Bujue and his friends arrived is the twelfth day of Phoenix Moon...
The table of people who booked the elegant seats in Dengyuanlou in the east of the city this year are the famous "Four Heavenly Kings of Gangshan" in the world.
These four people are brothers with different surnames. No one knows their original surnames, but they only know that the place where they first became famous is Gangshan. The four people now use the names after they became sworn brothers. The eldest brother is called Daozheng, the second brother is Dezheng, the third brother is Fazheng, and the fourth brother is Zhizheng.
Although the names of these brothers are like Buddhist names, they are not monks. On the contrary, these four are all famous playboys, who are greedy for beauty. And they are all very handsome (they can enter the city, which means that they have passed the test in terms of appearance and cultivation). Of course... they are not lecherous and have never done those forced things. What they like is the routine of being pretentious, willing, and abandoning...
Objectively speaking, they are still decent people (the Shengyuan world is a world where good and evil cannot coexist. There is no so-called "neutrality", so no evil ways are allowed to enter the harem city), but there are some problems with their lifestyle.
That afternoon, these four had already sat in the private room on the third floor of Dengyuan Building. Drinking and chatting.
"My dear brothers, hehe... I have been holding back in this city for half a year, and I finally waited until today." Dao Zheng said with a smile while putting food into his mouth. Looking at his face, he was obviously a little tipsy.
"Yes, big brother." De Zheng replied, "Tonight... our brothers can finally see the beauty of Ji Xunlong."
"Alas... what a pity." Fa Zheng raised his head and drank a glass of wine, then said, "Ah... I can see it, but I can't touch it."
"Hehe... Third brother, there's nothing we can do about it." Zhi Zheng laughed, "I like women~"
"Humph... it's a pity that this stunning beauty has such a hobby..." Dao Zheng took advantage of the alcohol and said wantonly, "I'm afraid she will never be able to experience the joy of going to Wushan with a man in her life."
The other three heard this and laughed with Dao Zheng for a while, and drank another round.
After drinking a few rounds like this, Zhi Zheng suddenly widened his eyes, looked out the window and shouted loudly: "Brothers! Look!"
"What's wrong?" Dao Zheng and the others turned their heads and looked at the street in confusion.
It doesn't matter if they don't look, but they almost dropped their eyeballs on the ground after just one look.
"This, this, this..." De Zheng stuttered, "...Who is this girl? I've been in the city for half a year, and I thought I'd seen all the beauties in the city, but how come I've never seen this beauty before?"
"She must have just entered the city today." Fa Zheng continued, "Maybe...she wants to join Ji Xunlong's harem?"
"With her beauty, I'm afraid Ji Xunlong can't control herself..." Zhi Zheng's eyes were still fixed on the street when he spoke.
"Hey? Brothers." Dao Zheng seemed to have an idea at this time, "Why don't I go down and invite her to sit in this private room?"
"That's very good!" Dezheng replied, but a second later, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and quickly added, "But... Brother, you are the elder. It seems a bit laborious for you to personally take part in such a scene." ...I am the second younger brother..."
"Hey~ Why do you need second brother to take action?" Fazheng continued, "I'll just go..."
"No, no, no." Zhizheng's response was not slow, "I will do my best on my own..."
Obviously, these four are not stupid, and they are all quite the first ones to come forward and strike up a conversation.
"Ha!" Daozheng laughed, "Okay, okay, when something good happens, you guys can run faster than anyone else." He put down his wine glass, "Since everyone wants to talk to that woman, why not... Let’s go together.”
"Hmm... That's fine." Dezheng smiled, "Let's go there together and see which one the fairy-like sister likes more? Hahaha..."
The four of them laughed confidently for a while (they were very confident in their ability to pick up girls), said "please" to each other hypocritically, and then rushed out from the third floor.
At the same time, Xu Huaishang, who was "exploring the map" on the street, didn't know anything. First, she didn't know the background setting of this script; second, she didn't know who and where her teammates were; third, she didn't know what the current task was. I've been working on the script for a long time. She just walked blankly down the street.
At this moment, four figures suddenly descended from the sky and stopped in front of her...
"This girl, please be polite." The four kings of Gangshan bowed together and said this to Xu Huaishang politely and in unison.
After that, the four of them straightened up again, revealing four handsome faces, and cast affectionate and seductive looks at her.
"Uh..." On Xu Huaishang's side, his eyes were empty, showing a pained expression.
to be honest. She has seen scenes like this, whether in reality or in games... Not to mention four people, she has also seen even forty-eight male idol groups who are more beautiful than women collectively confess their love... That scene was much more spectacular than this.
"Excuse me...are you guys okay?" Xu Huaishang asked nonchalantly.
"I'll be honest..."
"My dear, Dezheng..."
"I am doing justice..."
"I'm Zhizheng..."
"Perhaps the girl has also heard that my four brothers are the guests of Dengyuan Tower tonight." Daozheng said.
"I was upstairs just now and saw the girl wandering alone on the street..." Dezheng continued. "That's why I stepped forward boldly..."
"Please tell me what your girl's name is." Fazheng said again.
"I wonder if the girl can give me a favor..." Zhi Zhengze said, "...get together with the four of my brothers upstairs."
They are indeed brothers who have a close friendship and have the same chemistry. They are closer than real brothers, and they talk like a solitaire.
"Well... I appreciate your kindness." Xu Huaishang didn't have time to attend the dinner of these NPCs at this moment. Of course he refused decisively, "I still have something to do, so I can't help you."
As soon as these words came out, the Four Heavenly Kings of Gangshan were shocked. They never expected... that they would be rejected.
Not to mention how attractive these four flower bush veterans are to women...normally. 99% of the people in this city (regardless of men and women) will be so excited that their blood vessels will burst when they hear the words "Deng Yuan Lou Elegant Seat". Being able to do it without spending a penny. Sitting in that elegant room on the twelfth day of Huangyue, this was an invitation that could not be refused.
However... Xu Huaishang rejected the Four Heavenly Kings of Gangshan without hesitation with an absent-minded attitude. And... it's still on the street.
In the harem city, the streets were full of people in the Wuji Realm of True Yuan. Their hearing was naturally good, and there were many passers-by quietly paying attention to Xu Huaishang. Therefore...most of the people on the street stopped at this moment and looked towards Goddess Xu with shocked faces.
Two seconds later, the Four Heavenly Kings of Gangshan also realized that something was wrong... In this case, if they returned in such a disgraceful manner, how could they lose face?
"Uh... girl... maybe you didn't hear clearly..." Dao Zheng continued to block Xu Huaishang's path without any intention of getting out of his way, "I was talking about the 'private seats on the third floor of Dengyuan Building'." He specially emphasized those seven words, fearing that the other party would not realize the meaning.
It's a pity... Xu Huaishang has no idea about the meaning of these seven words.
"Sorry, I'm really not free." Not only did Goddess Xu's attitude not improve, she even showed a slightly impatient expression and turned away.
"Hey, girl." Zhizheng dodged and stopped in front of Xu Huaishang, "Why are you so anxious?"
"It has nothing to do with you, right?" Xu Huaishang replied, "Can you please get out of the way?" After that, she changed direction and walked forward quickly.
At this moment, the pedestrians on the street all showed expressions of gloating about the misfortune and gathered around to watch the fun. Obviously...the Four Heavenly Kings of Gangshan will not be able to step down this time. This situation of "guests occupying the private seats in Dengyuan Tower are disgraced" is undoubtedly something that the people (those who cannot book private seats) like to see.
"Wait a minute!" Daozheng finally couldn't bear it any longer. He ran in front of Xu Huaishang again, "Girl... let's stop joking here..." He lowered his voice and looked into Xu Huaishang's eyes. "Our brothers have invited you kindly, but you have this attitude... Could it be that you are deliberately trying to hurt our brothers' face..."
"Are you guys annoyed?" Now, even Xu Huaishang became angry, "If you don't go away, I'm going to take action." She was already a little annoyed because of the lack of information in the script, and now she was being harassed by four NPCs inexplicably. ...then the idea of fighting came up,
If Xu Huaishang knew the level of combat power in this universe, she would not be so impulsive. It's a pity...she doesn't know. She thought this was just an ancient fictional world, at best the martial arts plane. With her current fighting power, she was already invincible in the martial arts world, so there was no harm in taking action.
"I advise you not to fight them."
Suddenly, a voice came from the air, extremely loud, and resounded throughout the street.
When he heard this sentence, Xu Huaishang's expression suddenly changed... a little bit of surprise, but also mixed with a bit of joy... (To be continued...)
