"Hello everyone, I am Qinglu, the newly crowned queen of our establishment!"
"Miss Qinglu, I am willing to spend one hundred taels of silver just to be your first intimate guest..."
Just then, a fat, middle-aged man with big ears shouted loudly!
"You think you can become a guest of pleasure with just one hundred taels of silver? Are you out of your mind? I'm willing to offer one hundred taels of gold just to become Miss Qinglu's guest of pleasure..."
"I'll offer two hundred taels of gold; when it comes to money, I'm never afraid of anyone..."
The group was blocked at the bottom of the stairs, and no matter how much they shouted or made promises, Qinglu gave no further response…
Looking at the noisy crowd below, Li Zhu shook his head helplessly. These people had all been influenced by Qinglu's charm and had lost their ability to judge. He really didn't know how these people made so much money. They were probably all spoiled brats or something like that...
Li Zhu faintly heard a familiar voice, so he withdrew his gaze from Qinglu. Qinglu, however, seemed to sense Li Zhu's gaze and looked up. Their eyes met for a fleeting moment, but Li Zhu's mind was not on her. Instead, he held his breath and focused on finding out which room the familiar voice was coming from...
Li Zhu didn't see that when Qinglu looked at him, she was clearly taken aback, as if she hadn't expected him to come to a place like this. However, she hid it well, quickly regaining her composure as if nothing had happened, simply standing there with a smile...
That simple smile alone sent the crowd into a frenzy once again, chanting Qinglu's name incessantly...
Meanwhile, Li Zhu followed the sound to the outside of a room. He could sense that many experts were lying in ambush around the room, whether to ambush them or to protect the people inside...
However, he concealed his presence and crouched in a corner, listening to the conversation inside the room…
"Shi Min, what do you want with me?"
Naza's voice came from inside the house. Upon hearing her words, Li Zhu frowned. Wasn't this Shi Min Shi Le's adopted son? How could he be here?
"Of course we'll cooperate with you. If Xiliang can cooperate with the New Tang, why can't it cooperate with the Jie tribe?"
Shi Min said with a smile!
"Why should I cooperate with you? You're just an adopted son..."
Naza clearly looked down on Shi Min. After all, an adopted son was nothing more than a hired thug. In times of war, biological sons weren't enough, so they had to use adopted sons to do their bidding…
"I know the whereabouts of the Zodiac Book..."
Shi Min's words silenced Nazha, while Li Zhu in the corner was also taken aback, wondering how Shi Min knew that the Book of the Zodiac was in his possession, since not many people knew about this!
"So what?"
Naza asked nonchalantly!
"You and my father fought fiercely over the Book of the Zodiac, wasn't it all for the sake of obtaining it? You don't need to pretend you don't care; I'm here to cooperate with you in good faith..."
Shi Min said very seriously!
Nazha paused for a moment, seemingly considering whether or not to collaborate with Shi Min…
Why should I believe you?
Naza's tone clearly betrayed distrust...
"The reason we're seeking your cooperation this time is because of your relationship with the Crown Prince. To find the Book of the Zodiac, we need to take advantage of the Crown Prince's access to the palace..."
Shi Min revealed some important information, but did not reveal the true location of the Yellow Path Heavenly Book!
"What's in it for me?"
Naza continued to ask!
"Isn't it enough that we share the Zodiac Book?"
Shi Min looked at Nazha and asked in return!
"Do you think I'm stupid? Then tell me, if we get it, who will use it first, you or me?"
Naza said with a cold laugh!
"Of course I used it first. After all, I provided the information, so I should be the first to comprehend the Book of the Zodiac..."
"You are in the Jie tribe, and I am in Xiliang, one in the east and one in the west. When do you think I will be able to comprehend the Book of the Yellow Path? After you die?"
Naza mercilessly exposed Shi Min's thoughts and fiercely mocked him in return!
"Nazha, don't push your luck. Once my Jie tribe establishes its own kingdom, don't say we won't be the first to lead an army to attack your Xiliang..."
Both ethnic groups are nomadic peoples from the grasslands and possess the advantage of cavalry. However, the difference lies in the fact that the Western Liang had already established a kingdom, while the Jie were merely dependent on others.
Li Zhu felt even more furious with the Jie tribe. The new Tang Dynasty was supporting them, yet they were always thinking about how to turn against them. They were truly ungrateful wretches!
However, according to historical records from the previous life, after the Jie people were driven out of the Central Plains, they went to the Middle East and caused a great uproar there.
The entire race became universally reviled, their attempts to establish a nation all ended in failure, and they were nearly wiped out by a leader with a swastika symbol…
These people are like vampires crawling on the surface of history. Whoever takes them in will be mercilessly devoured. Later, the Chinese nation even took them in, but who knew that these bastards would turn around and support the Japanese in destroying China and wanting to plunder Chinese territory to establish their own country? They are simply inhuman...
"Then feel free to give it a try..."
Naza doesn't take the other person seriously at all!
These words infuriated Shi Min to the point of near bursting; one can only imagine the frustration he felt…
"Let's each compromise. How about you submit to me, and then we can work together to understand this?"
Before Nazha could react after Shi Min finished speaking, Li Zhu was the first to object. "They've already been cuckolded, how can they let this go?"
Li Zhu flashed into the room, glaring angrily at Shi Min…
The two people in the room were stunned for a moment, and then looked at Li Zhu, who had suddenly rushed in, with different expressions!
Shi Min was shocked, wondering how Li Zhu could be here...
Naza seemed somewhat surprised, and her expression was a little unnatural, as if she had been caught red-handed…
"You bastard, why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror? You actually think you can get Nazha to give herself to you? I'll send you to be a eunuch right now, and see if you dare to lay a finger on my woman again..."
As he spoke, Li Zhu threw a punch at Shi Min's face, intending to give him a thousand peach blossoms blooming...
Shi Min was not about to give in so easily. He tried to dodge Li Zhu's fist, but found himself too slow. He only managed to deflect the fist slightly, and it still landed on Li Zhu's cheek...
The immense force knocked Shi Min's back teeth out, and before he even hit the ground, he roared angrily.
"Kill him..."
Then, the person hidden in the shadows rushed out and, without any preamble, launched an attack on Li Zhu…
"Nazha, be careful..."
Just as Li Zhu was about to finish off Nazha, a man in black suddenly attacked her...
