135  Chen Jie was curious and looked over, only to see the sturdy man approaching and saying, "Brother Deng."

  Deng Guangming also laughed when he saw the man: "Haha, Brother Sun, it's been a long time."

  "Yeah, Sun is here, huh?"

  Grandpa Sun had just said a few words when he turned his head to look at the bed beside him. He saw a person covering his face with a pillow. This was too strange.

  "Who is this?"

  The man asked curiously, what's so shameful about this?

  Chen Jie noticed that Zhou Chu seemed to be trembling. Deng Guangming asked, "You don't know him?"

  Grandpa Sun frowned and said, "Looks familiar, brother, what's your name?"

  Zhou Chu: ...

  "Why don't you speak? Sun is talking to you. Hey, these shoes are from Shunfeng Escort Agency? They belong to my family? Let me see who you are!"

  Grandpa Sun grabbed the pillow and saw a face that was uglier than crying: "Haha, big brother..."

  "Brother-in-law! You!"

  Fuck!

  "Hey, brother!"

  Grandpa Sun raised his hand to hit him, but Zhou Chu held his head. At this time, Deng Guangming said, "Brother Sun, this is Yihonglou."

  Grandpa Sun stopped and said angrily, "Okay, Zhou Chu, you wait."

  After saying that, Grandpa Sun left. Zhou Chu hurriedly put on his shoes and chased after him: "Brother, brother...it's not what you think!"

  Deng Guangming looked at Chen Jie and said, "Sixth Brother, this..."

  Chen Jie said, "Fourth brother, I'll go take a look. Don't let anyone get killed. Also, thank you for your hospitality."

  Deng Guangming said: "Old Five, you go too."

  Chen Jie apologized and left. Deng Guangming smiled and said, "Forget it. I'll enjoy it alone."

  After saying that, he shook his head, thinking that Lao Liu would probably suffer a lot today!

  Chen Jie chased out, but there was no sign of Zhou Chu, and he didn't know where Zhou Chu lived. He thought about it and decided to just go home.

  Although the wild flowers are very fragrant, you can't let your wife stay alone in an empty room!

  Thinking of this, Chen Jie walked towards his home. At this time, two people poked their heads out from behind a stone lion not far away.

  One person said: "He finally came out."

  Another said, "Follow me, there's an empty alley ahead, it's a good time to attack!"

Chapter 113: Events escalate, Peng Shizhong vs. the Oil Seller

  On a summer night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. A full moon hung in the sky, and Chen Jie was walking on the road of Yanzhi Street.

  There are more than just Yihonglou in this street. If Yihonglou does "clean" business, there are many "dirty" businesses on this street.

  "Uncle, come and play~"

  In front of many small restaurants, there were groups of beautifully dressed girls standing, waving their handkerchiefs and soliciting customers.

  However, their quality is far inferior to that of Yihonglou.

  But business is very good, because Yihonglou is all about romance, and many people spend money but see no substantial progress.

  A group of guests who were full of anger went out and saw these girls who would take off their clothes for money, so they naturally wanted to vent their anger.

  Therefore, these shops are also doing a booming business, and although the quality in their shops is average, they are cheap. The cheapest bottle of 108 flowers in Yihonglou costs dozens of taels of silver, while outside, you can experience it for just a few taels of silver.

  There are even secret doors in more remote alleys, where it's even cheaper, and you can become a groom for just a few hundred coins.

  It can be said that the customer segmentation is very good, allowing every class to spend money, forming a good employment atmosphere, and most importantly, this thing is legal!

  Chen Jie strolled on the street and rejected many calls from young ladies.

  Then he suddenly discovered that at the end of the street, there was a place where a group of men gathered and lined up to buy things, and the stall that attracted so many male customers was actually a fruit stall.

  Chen Jie was surprised and walked over to see what kind of fruit it was that was so attractive.

  As soon as he walked in, he smelled the scent of orange from a few steps away.

  "What kind of orange is this? It tastes so strong."

  Chen Jie was just wondering when a waiter immediately asked, "Sir, would you like to buy some of our green tangerines?"

  The waiter was holding a peeled green orange in his hand. Chen Jie asked, "Can I have a taste?"

  The young man said, "Try it? Oh, sure, sure."

  Chen Jie broke off a petal, and immediately a strong sour taste exploded in his mouth. He said, "It's so sour, can it be sold..."

  Chen Jie originally wanted to say that the oranges were too sour and couldn't be sold, but when he saw the people queuing up to buy oranges, he swallowed his words.

  The young man then whispered, "Sir, this is your first time walking around Rouge Street."

  Chen Jie said: "Yeah."

  The waiter twitched his nose and said, "The rouge smell on Mr. Wen is high-end stuff. Did it come from Yihonglou?"

  Chen Jie nodded: "Can you smell this too?"

  The waiter laughed and said, "I'm joking. I've been hanging around Rouge Street for a long time. I may not be good at other things, but I have a very good nose. However, I came from Yihonglou, so it's normal that I don't know the magical effects of green tangerines."

  What the young man said is correct. Those who can afford to enter Yihonglou are either rich or noble, and their family status is very high. Therefore, the women in the family dare not care where such a gentleman socializes.

  There's no need for this little green tangerine thing.

  Only those who don't want the women in their family to know will use green tangerines, a small prop to cover up the smell.

  After listening to the explanation of the waiter, Chen Jie took his clothes and smelled them, but he didn't smell any rouge.

  The young man laughed and said, "Sir, if you smell it yourself, you definitely can't smell it."

  Chen Jie thought about it and it made sense. It was just like a smoker who couldn't smell the smoke on his body, but others could smell it from a long distance away.

  "How do you sell these oranges?"

  "Twenty cents each."

  The young man laughed.

  "Twenty cents? Too expensive, isn't it?"

  The young man said, "Haha, it's a bit expensive, but it works well."

  Chen Jie thought for a moment and said, "Give me ten."

  After hearing this, the young man said, "Okay, sir, I'll teach you how to use it..."

  Chen Jie filled a brown paper bag with ten oranges and left the stall. He was not afraid that Su Yunjin would know that he had come to Yihonglou.

  But it is not necessary.

  I haven't done anything shameful. It's not worth it if I make my wife feel uncomfortable because of the smell of rouge.

  A harmonious family brings prosperity. A harmonious family brings prosperity.

  After leaving Rouge Street, I suddenly felt as if I had arrived in another world. Rouge Street was full of singing and dancing and brightly lit, while the outside world was extremely quiet at night!

  It was like going back to a residential area from the bustling business world.

  Those are two different worlds.

  "That's about it. There's no one left."

  The butler and the killer followed Chen Jie the whole time. The killer said, "Don't stare at him. He has a strong sense of perception. There's no one in the alley ahead, so we'll strike there. You wait here. I'll go over first."

  As the killer said this, he pulled the black cloth over his face.

  The butler thought about it and followed immediately.

  He wanted to watch Chen Jie die tragically, and if possible, he even wanted to kill Chen Jie with his own hands, so as to avenge his master.

  "Um?"

  Chen Jie frowned slightly, turned his head and looked at the empty street behind him. For some reason, when he came out of Yihong Building, he felt that someone was following him.

  Something is wrong.

  Chen Jie frowned slightly and slowed down his pace.

  At this time, there was a dark alley in front of us. There were obviously not many people walking in the alley, and all kinds of sundries were placed in it.

  Chen Jie's expression remained unchanged as he slowly walked into the alley. At the same time, a cloud in the sky slowly covered the moon, making the dark street even darker.

  Chen Jie walked into the alley.

  Suddenly I felt the hairs all over my body explode. This is a stress response after entering the dark energy. When the body is stimulated by the outside world, the whole person will enter a state of stress, just like a cat whose tail is stepped on and its hair will explode in an instant.

  After entering the dark energy, the skin and flesh are polished to the best condition, and even the tendons and bones are exercised, so the response to stress situations reaches the best condition.

  call out!

  A knife suddenly stabbed at Chen Jie from the darkness. Chen Jie's body reacted subconsciously and dodged. Then the knife flew past Chen Jie's scalp and cut off a few strands of his hair.

  However, due to Chen Jie's large movements, the green tangerine in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.

  Snap…

  Rolled to the side.

  Chen Jie let go of the bag, then used his water-controlling palm and slapped it hard in the direction of the assassin.

  The assassin was shocked. His reaction speed was so quick, he didn't look like someone in the physical realm. Could the information be wrong?

  Although he was thinking this, he had no time to react, because Chen Jie's water-controlling palm had already hit him.

  Seeing this, the assassin quickly drew back the knife and turned to run.

  He was a standard assassin, who would flee thousands of miles away if his strike failed. From the counterattack just now, he discovered that Chen Jie's strength should not be inferior to his. He should also be at the Liujin realm, a dark-force killer.
