After listening to this, Gu Qingze nodded. What Song Jinnian said was not difficult to understand. Simply put, the Yaoyuan Festival is now no different from the holidays of the demon clan.
Seeing that they all understood, Song Jinnian stopped talking and smiled and changed the topic to another one.
"Brothers, although we can't go to the Flower House today, we can discuss countermeasures in advance."
"Brother Jinnian, do you have a plan?"
Chu Lingxiao looked at him with an expression that said "ask me quickly" and asked cooperatively.
"I can't really talk about countermeasures, but I did learn some other information from my sister. I wanted to tell my two brothers about it that day, but they didn't seem very interested, so I didn't say anything."
"However, the situation is different now. Now that my two brothers have decided to investigate this matter, I must share this information with them so that they can prepare well."
Song Jinnian pretended to be mysterious.
"Oh? What's the news?" Seeing him like this, Gu Qingze cooperated and asked.
"Hehe, it's about how to get close to the chief courtesan."
Chu Lingxiao was a little confused when he heard this.
"Brother Jinnian, didn't you say before in the brothel that the conditions for meeting the current chief courtesan are very harsh? Besides money, what other conditions are required..."
Chu Lingxiao seemed to have thought of something, paused, then looked at him and asked expectantly.
"Could it be that Brother Jinnian knows what the other conditions specifically refer to?"
"Hehe, of course I don't know."
Song Jinnian said with a righteous look.
"After all, our family is only half the owner of the brothel, and we can't interfere with the internal affairs. We can only collect the money regularly."
Gu Qingze was not surprised by this result at all, and did not have too many other emotions. Instead, he said with a smile.
"It seems that Brother Jinnian has other options."
Song Jinnian blinked, "Brother Qingze is right, I do have other ways, but..."
Seeing his hesitation, Chu Lingxiao couldn't bear it any longer. He patted his shoulder and encouraged him.
"Brother Jinnian, Qingze and I are your friends. Just say whatever you want to say. Even if there are some things you say that are not right, we won't blame you. Being so shy now is not like you normally."
After hearing this, Song Jinnian breathed a sigh of relief. The reason he had been delaying was because this matter might not be acceptable in the eyes of the human race.
But if you think about it carefully, Brother Qingze and Brother Lingxiao can be dogs for each other, so this should not be a problem.
"Then I'll just say it straight!"
Song Jinnian smiled and said seriously.
"Although none of the other courtesans in the brothel have ever seen the face of this mysterious current chief courtesan, some have communicated with her, and in private."
"We've never met, but we've communicated... Could it be that we communicated through a curtain?"
Gu Qingze put forward a conjecture of his own.
"Not bad!" Song Jinnian gave appropriate affirmation. "In order to motivate other courtesans to climb up the ladder and work hard, the courtesan with the best performance each month will have a private meeting with the chief courtesan behind a curtain as a reward."
"If that's the case, we can help your sister become the best courtesan of the month, and then have your sister ask for clues about what we're going to do."
Gu Qingze thought for a moment and suggested.
"Anyway, the criteria for judging ordinary courtesans shouldn't be as complicated as the top courtesan, right? It's probably just based on performance or something. If that's the case, then we can just throw money at it."
Unexpectedly, Chu Lingxiao on the side tugged at the corner of his clothes and secretly transmitted a message using spiritual power.
"Qingze, if that's the case, should we tell Song Jinnian's sister some of the information about the "Three Lives Flower"?"
"No need. Just tell Song Jinnian's sister some of the probing words, and then have her repeat the chief courtesan's reaction after hearing those words."
Gu Qingze thought for a moment and replied using his spiritual power.
"But if the top courtesan on the other side knew the content of 'Three Lives Flower' and said it directly, then wouldn't Song Jinnian's sister know it too?"
"Ling Xiao, what you mean is that if Song Jinnian's sister knew about the "Three Lives Flower" news, she would lie to us and say she didn't know, or deliberately fabricate false news in order to keep the information for herself..."
"Well, by then we won't know whether what Song Jinnian's sister said is true or not, and we won't be able to verify it. Doesn't that mean it all depends on her words?"
"So... aren't there spiritual tools or spells that can distinguish truth from lies? Wouldn't it be clear if we use them like this?"
Chu Lingxiao shook his head.
"Qingze, you are still too naive. Let me ask you, she is Song Jinnian's godsister. If you use that kind of spiritual weapon in front of Song Jinnian, it means you don't trust her, and even don't trust Song Jinnian."
"Besides, the spiritual weapon that can distinguish true from false isn't omnipotent. She could also hide some of her words to confuse us. That wouldn't count as lying, right?"
"As for other spells that force people to tell the truth, they will damage the sanity of the person being used. With Qingze's personality, he definitely can't use them."
Seeing that he remained silent, Chu Lingxiao helplessly used his spiritual power to transmit his voice.
"I admit that I might have been judging others by my own standards, but there's nothing I can do about it. The value of the 'Three Lives Flower' is too high. Anyone who knows about it, even if they don't have anyone they want to resurrect, can still make a fortune selling it. I really don't feel comfortable revealing such a precious thing to others."
