The night was deep, and An Bochen looked at the deserted town not far away in confusion. His wrist trembled and he immediately hung his reins.

"Why stop?"

Shangguan Wan'er frowned.

“What’s wrong.”

An Bochen lowered his voice and said, "The left eye is sunny and the right eye is sunny, and he activates the magical powers of the eyes at the same time."

The left eye rolled up a white tide in the river, and the ripples showed ten miles of land. The town was singing and dancing, and the brothels gathered, and the beakers danced and the wine and food were endless. However, when looking at the right eye, we saw a completely different scene. The town less than ten miles was shrouded in the smog, and there were no beautiful guests, which were gloomy and dark.

If An Bochen had encountered such a strange place in the past, he would have to go to explore it. But now he is being destined to be in trouble and the 100-day period is not over, so An Bochen would not want to have trouble.

Just as he was about to turn his horse's head, Amberchen's left eye suddenly saw a familiar figure.

On the other side of Taiqing Town, a young man in a dark night clothes hesitated and wandered around the edge of the town. He was about two or three inches taller than Amberchen, tall and thin, with black hair hanging down his shoulders, and was grayish-white at such a young age, and his face was covered with fatigue. What surprised Amberchen the most was his white eyes.

"The First Wang Feng? Why is he still in Dakuang?"

An Bochen was surprised that after the first Wang Feng exchanged Wang Situ's secrets that year, he took Yue Qingqing to Zhongdu to pick up the boat. Three years later, the two of them should have left Dakuang and left far away.

If it weren't for the first Wang Feng's "full of all his gifts", An Bochen would not have learned the secret technique. An Bochen was still grateful to the young couple who escaped from Taoyuan.

After thinking about it, An Bochen kicked the horse's belly and took the sleepy Shangguan Wan'er to the town.

As soon as he entered the town, An Bochen saw a stone tablet standing on the left.

"Taiqing Town?"

An Bochen muttered in a low voice, the stone tablet was engraved with the name of the town, and there was also an inscription below. I don’t know if it was too old or was eroded by wind and sand day and night, but in short, the words on the monument could not be clearly identified and could not be read.

After being a general in Liuguo for three years, An Bochen was not unfamiliar with Kanto. The bandits gathered like horse thieves in the north of the desert, and had no place to live, burned, killed and looted wherever they went. This town seemed to be old. It was in Kanto, but it was a place that never sleeps. It was as prosperous as a brocade, like an oasis in the vast desert, which was really puzzling.

A little uneasy arises in his heart. An Bochen walks and thinks about why he came to such a strange town.

"What are you doing when you walk so slowly? Why don't you find an inn to settle down?"

Shangguan Wan'er rubbed her eyes and said listlessly. She just raised her head and was stunned.

"The Prince Consort, what is that?"

"That's a brothel."

Looking at the bustling attic not far away, Amberchen replied.

The edge of Taiqing Town is deserted, but as soon as you walk into the town, you will see the crowded brothels. The bustle and quietness are so close that there seems to be a watershed in the dark, which divides the noise and silence in a hundred feet, very close and far apart.

"Brotherhouse?"

Shangguan Wan'er was stunned, frowned and thoughtful. Gradually, an excited look appeared on her face, and her tired look instantly swept away.

"The Prince Consort, is it the legendary place?"

"It is the legendary place for men and women to love."

An Bochen nodded and said half-jokingly, but unfortunately only Sima Jin could understand his cold jokes. When he looked at Shangguan Wan'er, he saw her nodding with a serious face, and a gleam flashed in her eyes. An Bochen's face turned slightly red, and he thought something was wrong.

"The Prince Consort, there must be many strong men in this brothel. Why don't we start provoking it here?"

Without An Bochen's expectations, Shangguan Wan'er said eagerly.

"If you want to find a man, you need to go to the capital city. This is a remote place. How can you have a man with both moral integrity and excellent bloodline?"

An Bochen came to Taiqing Town just to find the first Wang Feng, so he had no leisure to linger in the brothel, and immediately dissuaded.

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Wan'er was in high spirits, broke free from An Bochen's arms, jumped off the horse, ignored An Bochen's call, and quickly walked towards the brothel. In a blink of an eye, a woman in a warrior uniform was submerged among the guests of the brothel and disappeared.

An Bochen was furious. Although he felt that the Prime Minister of the Women's Kingdom was really troublesome, he was a newcomer after all. He couldn't bear to leave her alone, so he turned over and dismounted and led the wild horse king to the brothel.

"Young Master is here, please come in quickly."

The sharp-eyed madam glanced at An Bochen, quickly left the guests at hand, waved the handkerchief full of rouge, twisted her waist and walked towards An Bochen.

"I'll find someone."

Tied the Wild Horse King next to the willow tree in front of the brothel, Amberchen turned to the madam and said.

The madam was over fifty years old and had no charm. A strange smile appeared on her face filled with powder: "Don't the guests here all want to find someone. I wonder which one the young master is looking for?"

"The girl was wearing a blue samurai suit."

An Bochen said, protruding his head to look into the brothel.

There are about twenty scattered mats on the first floor of the brothel, and most of the guests are drinking. From time to time, girls come, sitting down to drink with them, or being taken to the second floor by someone to have fun. Shangguan Wan'er was wearing a rare warrior uniform, which was very conspicuous, and she was not on the first floor, which was definitely upstairs.

"So young master is so good at this."

The madam covered her mouth and laughed in a daze.

An Bochen was not in the mood to get entangled with her, so he avoided the madam and walked in.

"What an impatient young man!"

The madam followed behind, waving her handkerchief boredly, and winked at the left and right. Three or four girls rushed up and chased An Bochen to the second floor.

The second floor is a private room. An Bochen drank away the brothel women, looked around, hesitating where to start.

"Are you looking for someone?"

A clear voice came from behind. An Bochen turned his head and saw a young man wearing a purple long gown and a jade fur coat wearing a shoulder looking at him thoughtfully.

The young man is extraordinary and not inferior to the unpretentious. Compared with the unpretentious who is sharp, he has a hint of warmth, like a warm jade, which makes people feel extremely comfortable.

"I'm looking for a girl in a blue samurai suit. She is about twenty years old. I wonder if my brother has seen it?"

An Bochen asked with his fists, sweeping over the boy's valuable outfit, and secretly guessing all the words to raise his identity.

Most of the guests downstairs are rough men and not very well-dressed. This place is located in the hinterland of Kanto, in a remote area, and it is reasonable for the guests to be vulgar. The young people in front of them look at their dressing demeanor, which is much better than the young men in Ryukyung. Why did they appear in the Kanto brothel?

The young man seemed to be very interested in An Bochen. After looking for a while, a warm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Brother, don't blame me. I just returned here next time, and I didn't see the girl I mentioned."

"So brother Tai is the owner of this place?"

"The master cannot be called, he can only be considered half a shopkeeper."

The young man replied with a smile, thinking for a moment, and then said, "It's better to do this. Brother Tai will follow you down to the third floor and sit for a while. I will ask the servants to help Brother Tai find the girl. As long as she is in the building, it will be not difficult to find."

"So, please trouble me."

When An Bochen saw the brothel shopkeeper so enthusiastically, he was slightly happy, but he was also wondering why a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old became brothel shopkeeper in this strange town.

"Okay, brother, follow me."

Before An Bochen could think too much, the young man walked up enthusiastically and pulled An Bochen to the third floor.

Turning over the steps inlaid with gold and jade, Amberchen walked up to the third floor of the brothel.

The third and second floors have completely different layouts, with no private rooms, nor tables and chairs. At the end of the long corridor is a screen that is ten feet long. There is a high mountain in the middle of the screen, with steep mountains, with about ten peaks rising and falling one after another, majestic and magnificent. White apes roaring among the mountains, eagles chasing cranes, like the mythical and legendary land. The scroll spreads from the center to the sides, with birds, beasts, men, women, and young people spreading out one by one, as if describing strange stories.

"Brother, please come in."

The young man's smile came from his ears. An Bochen was stunned. He looked around and didn't see any door.

An Bochen was about to ask, but the boy smiled and pulled him up and walked towards the screen.

When he arrived in front of the screen, the boy reached out and pushed it. Two doors were separated on the screen, and there was a quiet and unique small building inside.

An Bochen was amazed. Before he knew it, he had forgotten the strangeness of the town, the first Wang Feng on the other end of the town, and even Shangguan Wan'er, who was missing, no longer cared about it.

The boy entered the front foot, stood in the small building, turned around and looked at An Bochen with a smile. An Bochen walked in without thinking.

The wooden door on the screen is closed, and from the outside, there is no sign of a different world inside.

The faint and gloomy wind blew out of the window, stirring up two rows of candlelight by the corridor and swaying. Under the light and dark halo, the flowing clouds on the scroll flowed gracefully. On the mountain in the center, the pine waves of the forest spread to both sides, and the birds, beasts, men, women, and young people on the screen moved one after another, as if a stage was opening the curtain.
