Xu Zhi took small steps into the building. There were many tables placed there, and scholars were drinking. Beauties accompanied them. Fine wine and delicacies were served, and they danced with literature and ink. It was quite an interesting sight.
This kind of brothel belonged to the high-end type, and it was similar to the business model of ancient times.
The girls inside all looked like daughters of rich families. They were proficient in the four arts and were not allowed to be frivolous. If a girl liked you, they would secretly invite you into their bedroom for a chat.
"This world really has the feel of ancient China … Even the Primordial Era has an ancient style, but it's definitely not this ancient style. Instead, it's a primordial style, with a bunch of primordial beasts. And in the era of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it became even more bizarre, with all sorts of demons and monsters …"
It was not an exaggeration to say that the people of the Three Realms lived in a terrifying world.
Xu Zhi strode forward. "Maybe, if players could really enter this place, the brothel, the streets, the court, would they shoot movies here? Would they film reality shows? This place is comparable to all kinds of film cities. "
However, the mortal world was not a place they could stay for long. There would be a repulsive force, otherwise, they would really cause a mess.
"Sir …" A beautiful girl walked over. She was dressed in purple, and her body was full of seductive curves. She carried a jug of wine, "I am Xu Manxian …"
"I am just here to take a look." Xu Zhi smiled, looking at her with a strange expression.
The girl was shocked. She thought that he was very handsome and had a special aura. She couldn't help but want to get close to him, but he was a strange man.
She was a little unwilling to admit defeat. She revealed a pitiful and delicate face, "Sir, do you want to try our wine? Our Qingya House is beautiful, and the wine is even better. The dishes are all personally cooked by us sisters. It can be said to be the best in the world. Even the Celestials said it was good!"
"Then I will have a jug of wine."
Xu Zhi thought about it. The food of the gourmet world had developed to this point, so he naturally wanted to see if there were any improvements. "Bring me a few of your specialties."
"Sir, please wait."
She put down the jug of wine and left.
Xu Zhi poured a cup and took a sip. He seemed to notice the taste in it. "What a good bowl of bewitching soup."
Then, he sat down and looked around curiously. Beside him was a table full of scholars. A beautiful woman served a pot of porridge and slowly opened the lid.
Huala!
A thick, snow-white light was emitted from the lid of the pot, and a fresh aroma assailed the nostrils.
"Oh my god, it's delicious, too delicious!"
"What kind of divine delicacy is this?"
The scholar only took a bite and was immediately immersed in the fragrance. He swallowed it in big mouthfuls as if he had taken drugs.
The group of scholars at the side swallowed their saliva.
Xu Zhi's interest was immediately piqued.
Soon, there were three dishes on his table, all covered with a pot lid. Xu Zhi gently lifted one of the lids, and a bright white light quickly blossomed. Accompanied by a rich fragrance, a bright red grilled fish appeared in front of him.
Xu Zhi gently picked up the chopsticks and tasted it.
"Delicious."
The delicacy exploded in his taste buds. Every bite was full of happiness, as if he had the whole world.
"The taste is really good. Although it's not as delicious as the Martial God Soup, it's because the level of the ingredients is not high enough. He has some skills. In terms of cooking, he can be said to be the best. As expected of the gourmet world. However, this glowing dish … This chef added too much fluorescent agent for the color of the dish."
As for the surrounding scholarly guests, they continued to eat and drink, and even recited poems with the young ladies at the table. When they were almost done drinking, the young lady added, "The dishes cooked by us sisters are not bad, but our cooking is even better …"
Then, with a gentle and ambiguous expression, she pulled the guest up to the attic.
Xu Zhi's expression suddenly became strange.
Good wine, good food, reciting poems, accompanied by beauties … These aspects fiercely hit every weakness. No wonder people were willing to come despite the high price.
He took out a black book and kept glancing at it. "As expected … this brothel is not a proper brothel?"
Every girl here was a virgin, which was enough to prove how indecent it was.
"Shangguan Man … Talent: Medicine of the Heart. The food that he cooks will be infused with his inner emotions. It has a unique property …" Xu Zhi shook his head with a smile. He seemed to have found the figure of a certain chef in the kitchen.
"Ecstasy and fragrance enhancers are all thrown into these dishes … As for the beauty drugs, they are given to the sisters in the shop. Now they are all beautiful and graceful. As for the aphrodisiac, it is the key to leading the men upstairs. The key to the scam is just to get high in their dreams … There are all kinds of drugs. This building is a sea of drugs.
This is a place to scam men. You think you have made a fortune, but in fact, you have not touched anything. After you enter the room and eat a mouthful of the so-called kidney strengthening delicacy, it is just a muddled dream. "
Xu Zhi naturally couldn't be bothered with this kind of dishonest scam, selling sheep's head to buy dog meat. It was purely a pharmacy.
"Perhaps the owner of this shop has the aptitude to be Granny Meng." Xu Zhi thought for a moment.
After all, before this, it was the 20,000 living beings who first broke out with their various talents. The 580,000 living beings who followed after them had now experienced several reincarnations and accumulated their obsessions, gradually condensing and taking shape.
The 580,000 living beings with innate talents had only just begun to break out …
There were all kinds of talents.
Now was the time for him to find the right talent to run Hell.
With a flicker of his figure, Xu Zhi arrived at the back kitchen. A woman stood high up, while a group of men and women stood below. The youngest was the pickpocket from earlier, while the oldest was already middle-aged. It was as if they were having a party.
Shangguan Man was a beautiful and graceful woman. Her face was as beautiful as an immortal's. She stood high up and looked down at the chefs below.
"There are many people who want to ask me about my experience in cooking. They want to know why I can make such delicious dishes!
"Everyone here is here because they want to eat my food. You may be guilty, or you want to repent and turn over a new leaf, or you want to make up your mind and work hard … After the pickpocket drinks my food, he will shed tears and turn over a new leaf. After eating my food, he will remember his original dream and start to work hard … Most of you here are chefs who want to learn my cooking skills!"
She yelled with a bright and confident expression. "Chefs, you think that fresh ingredients, advanced cooking techniques, and delicious dishes are the keys to advanced cooking skills!
"But I want to tell you that all of this is wrong!"
Immediately, a commotion broke out among the crowd.
Shangguan Man continued, "The deliciousness of food doesn't lie in the ingredients, nor does it lie in the complicated cooking techniques …"
One of the chefs seemed to have an epiphany and couldn't help but say, "So that's how it is. A true chef has already simplified the complex. To cook delicious food, one should use their own heart …"
"That's right! One should use their own heart! "
She yelled loudly as she took out several butter paper packets that were tied into a cross.
"Dishes should be cooked with one's own heart! Only medicine with one's heart is delicious food! Your food doesn't taste good because you don't put your heart into it! You will never be able to become a supreme chef, but I have a shortcut here! Now, I'm packing my heart! Medicine packets that contain different moods and emotions. Customers can experience the various flavors of life and obtain the deliciousness and happiness that they want from them! Everyone, as long as you become a member of our Qingya Restaurant, you can add them at your discretion! You will be able to taste the same as our restaurant!
"As for the chefs who don't believe me, please take a look. Now, if you have any difficulties or want to turn over a new leaf, you can come and eat for free!"
As soon as she said that, the pickpocket from earlier came up.
Shangguan Man casually cooked a Chinese cabbage soup and crazily added medicine into it before handing it to him.
After the little pickpocket ate it, he immediately cried bitterly. Tears streamed down his face. "I … I can't make up my mind. I'll never do this kind of thieving thing again."
A middle-aged man selling sesame seed cakes ate it. "I … I should forgive my wife. I'll go back and tell her now!"
Xu Zhi: "…"
Just like the style of the restaurant outside, the customers who were eating were crying bitterly and tears were streaming down their faces.
The effects of the medicine are indeed terrifying. The Underworld lacks talents like this.
In the future, the food in the Underworld can also be improved. Talent has a "gourmet" attribute. It is indeed not bad to add medicine to the dishes and make people cry.
"You have the potential to become an ambitious person. Although your combat strength is not strong, you are cunning and extremely clever. You actually want to open a branch. Then, Meng Po will be you."
Xu Zhi smiled. This trip was worth it.
Boom!
The atmosphere of the entire venue suddenly became gloomy.
The pickpocket who was still drinking the soup in pain, the cooks who were shouting fanatically, and all kinds of people who were full of faith and worship suddenly stopped, as if someone had pressed the pause button. Their movements became so slow that it seemed as if they were in a different dimension.
"This is …"
"What happened?"
In the venue, Shangguan Man's eyes suddenly widened. She was at a loss and looked flustered.
She turned around and looked at the people around her. She seemed to be out of tune with them, as if she were in a different time and space. Slow, stagnant, numb. She suddenly felt a great sense of loneliness.
"You stole my money bag. It's time to return it."
Xu Zhi slowly walked past the pickpocket and gently took out the money bag from his pocket.
He continued forward. Then, he took out a black, exquisite, square-shaped book from his black robe and said indifferently.
"Shangguan Man has been reincarnated five times. In her first life, she was a flower. When she saw animals eating and drinking, she had a desire to eat delicious food, which gradually turned into her talent … In her second life, she was a pig. She began to eat like crazy, and in the end, she died …"
His voice was neither fast nor slow, but it sounded like a thunderclap. Shangguan Man had goosebumps all over her body!
Reincarnation?
Five lives?
So there is more than one life?
Then who is this mysterious black-robed young man holding a book in his hand? The ultimate supreme being who controls all life and reincarnation in the world? The book in his hand contains information about all life in the world?
Thump!
"My Lord, please spare me!"
Shangguan Man immediately knelt down and begged, "I was wrong."
Xu Zhi was speechless. Regardless of what he wanted to do, this coward immediately apologized and begged for mercy? After all, he was a wily old fox. "I have a position in the Underworld, which controls reincarnation. Are you willing to take it?"
Shangguan Man shuddered.
She didn't even ask what it was, but quickly knelt on the ground. "I am willing!!"
Xu Zhi was speechless again. She agreed to everything directly. "You hold the position of Granny Meng and stand by the Bridge of Helplessness. You will erase the memories of the countless living beings in the three paths of reincarnation: the Immortal Realm, the Animal Realm, and the Mortal Realm … Are you willing?"
"Yes!" Her expression was originally complicated and strange, but now her eyes were filled with ecstasy.
She had thought that this mysterious being was in need of a cook. There were tens of thousands of servants like this, but this was already a great opportunity. She was willing to follow him. However, it seemed that this wasn't the case at all. Instead, she was going to take up an important position.
In her eyes, the door to a new mysterious world was slowly opening.
"Shangguan Man, you can live out this life in peace, or you can commit suicide in advance and enter the cycle of reincarnation … After you die, you will see a new world. I will wait for you in the Underworld." Xu Zhi smiled and slowly turned to leave. Step by step, he steadily disappeared through the door.
Shangguan Man stood on the high platform and took a deep breath. She didn't know what to do …
Boom!
In an instant, with the departure of this mysterious being, the stagnant time seemed to flow back like a river.
"Ah!"
"This is so delicious!"
"This is like an immortal delicacy from the heavens!"
…
The commotion in the surroundings and the people below seemed to have turned on the play button again. Quickly, the scene continued to be noisy and noisy.
Even they themselves didn't realize what was happening.
"Huff … Time! Time …?! " Shangguan Man breathed heavily and jumped off the stage with a bang. Then, she said to a girl beside her, "Xiao Qi, you organize the rest of the things!"
She strode out of the room, stepped over the guests in the front hall, and came to the door of the brothel. Standing on the street, she tore off her face, revealing a hideous and horrifying face with an ugly birthmark.
Wu!
"Monster!"
"So ugly!"
The passersby were instantly shocked.
However, Shangguan Man grinned. Ignoring the fearful gazes around her, she reached out her hand toward the sky and slowly opened it.
"I'm reborn!"
"Even the beauty soup I painstakingly studied can't change the defects I was born with …"
She clenched her fist and thought to herself, "The sisters in the brothel are all ugly girls. The beauty soup can shape our bodies, but it can't change much of our appearance. It's all because of makeup …"
He was the only one who knew how hard his life had been. He was born deformed, abandoned by his parents on the streets, and had to go through many hardships to get to where he was today. Furthermore, he had to raise a group of pitiful and ugly girls …
As for deceiving her?
She was not worth being deceived by a master of that level.
Even in the whole town, she was the most inconspicuous one, the one who was at the mercy of others. Her talent seemed exaggerated, but in fact, she was at the mercy of others. She was not worth being deceived by a master of that level.
"I've lived for so long, and I've finally met a benefactor!!"
Her heart was surging!
She laughed wantonly and arrogantly as it came out of her mouth.
She laughed wildly! To her heart's content! Unscrupulous!
The enormous pressure of life made the tears that had been suppressed for a long time flow out of her eyes.
The passersby shook their heads. This disgusting ugly girl must have been so shocked by the beautiful girls in this famous brothel that she began to go crazy.
After laughing for a long time, Shangguan Man finally stopped. A group of girls gathered behind her, looking at her worriedly. Was it because of the pressure? After all, they were all wearing masks …
After all, the forces in the city were complicated, and a group of weak girls like them lived a hard life.
A beautiful girl couldn't help but say, "Did you meet the loafers in the south of the city again? They always covet our beauty. At most, we can just remove our makeup and scare them away."
"I'm fine. I'm leaving, but I'll prepare more medicine for you. You can cook and earn enough money to get married and have children in the future. Keep your bodies, and find an honest man who doesn't care about looks to marry you. Head Li in the north of the city is very forthright and loyal. You can rely on him for this period of time." She took a deep breath. Although she could live such a life, she didn't want to stay for a moment longer.
She chose death.
…
…
In the pitch-black space.
It was a narrow path to the Yellow Springs. Both sides were full of blooming spider lilies.
Everyone was afraid of death, and she was no exception. She lined up with the crowded crowd on the path. "You really didn't lie to me! There really is a world after death. "
Around her, there were voices communicating with her. They were also shocked.
"What happened? I remember that I'm already dead. "
"I'm dead too. I fell off the cliff."
"I died of old age."
"How did we all appear here? Is this the world after death?"
…
The creatures in the line moved forward one after another. They were also confused. There really was a mysterious world after death. If the news spread to the outside world, it would definitely cause a huge uproar.
Shangguan Man saw all kinds of humans and animals on the path.
"The world after death, but no one in the mortal world has ever spread the existence of this world. No one knows that after death, it's not complete death! Instead, it's reincarnation … Then, before reincarnation, all the memories must have been wiped away! "
Shangguan Man's cheeks were hot and red. Her ugly face became more and more ferocious. She kept analyzing with her own thoughts.
As she moved forward, she even saw Celestial Beings.
"There are Celestial Beings! That's the most noble and mysterious Celestial Being in the legends! "She was completely stunned. Running a brothel, she couldn't come into contact with such an unimaginable level.
"What are you looking at, ugly woman?" A Celestial Being was slightly angry.
The Celestial Being was extremely proud. It had also descended to the mortal world before. It didn't know how many weak mortals it had seen. These weak creatures all knelt on the ground and became yes-men.
"I'm sorry! Noble Celestial Being, I was wrong! "
Shangguan Man took a deep breath and didn't dare to refute. She quickly lowered her head and apologized.
After all, she had grown up under this kind of discrimination. Her first reaction was to beg for mercy and admit her mistake. She had been struggling at the bottom for too many years, and it had long become a way of survival.
"Hehehe, at least you know what's good for you." The Celestial Being looked at indifferently and continued forward. As a noble Celestial Being, she silently clenched her fists and became completely nervous.
She silently clenched her fists, completely nervous. "If there really is a world after death, then that existence …"
