Chapter 237: Is the luck this good?
The old man didn't quite understand the meaning, and at the same time, Xu Jie's voice came from the revelation formation.
How is it, ready or not, Junior Brother Changqing will be here soon.
Almost there, almost there, senior brother, don't worry.
Seeing that Ye Changqing was about to arrive, the disciple looked at the still puzzled old man, gritted their teeth, and said.
Take him away.
In a moment, several disciples nearby went up to support the old man and were about to leave, scaring the old man.
What are you doing? In broad daylight, what are you doing?
You won't even let an old man like me go; what exactly do you want to do?
The old man was forcibly taken away, and that senior brother put on the old man's straw hat, covered his face, and posed as a small vendor selling tree fruits.
Not long after, Ye Changqing and Wei Feng indeed walked over.
Seeing this, the senior brother stepped forward a few paces and said excitedly.
Congratulations, sir, you have won today's first prize at our stall, and you will receive all the tree fruits from this stall.
Huh???
Hearing that, Ye Changqing looked at the small stall and said with a strange expression.
You guys even play this trick with a small stall?
A small stall holder even started a lottery, and it seems I didn't do anything, yet I won the first prize.
Hearing that, the senior brother lowered the brim of his hat and said with a grin.
Sir, you are the thousandth customer to pass by our stall, so you won the first prize.
Suspiciously glancing at Wei Feng, you tree city vendors really know how to do business? Before Ye Changqing could think further, that senior brother had already handed the tree fruits to him and then vanished in a puff of smoke.
Wait a moment............
Ye Changqing shouted from behind, but the senior brother had no intention of stopping.
Mysteriously obtaining so many tree fruits, Ye Changqing was bewildered, while Wei Feng beside him laughed and said.
Senior brother really has good luck, even this can win the first prize.
Is it good luck?
Hearing that, Ye Changqing was suspicious, but having inexplicably obtained a basket of tree fruits was not bad; he put them into his space ring, took two strings in hand, tasted them, and they were not bad.
The tree fruits of Tree City are indeed famous, with a sweet-and-sour taste, offering a unique flavor.
Not taking this to heart, Ye Changqing and Wei Feng continued to stroll.
On another side, the senior brother who fled in haste quickly met up with the others, including that old man from before.
At this time, the old man also stopped scolding and even looked at the disciples with a smile.
Old man, I've sold tree fruits for so many years, but I've never seen anything like this.
Sir, is this money enough for your tree fruits and basket?
Enough, enough.
Holding the money, the old man walked away happily, and the disciples finally breathed a sigh of relief.
All set.
From then on, along Ye Changqing's journey, one could say his luck was explosively good.
Wherever he casually passed, he won prizes.
Tree fruits, fine wine, delicacies, even the shop selling women's rouge and powder told him he had won the grand prize.
In just a short distance of a few hundred meters, Ye Changqing reaped quite a few good things.
Is this luck so heaven-defying?
Again, he inexplicably obtained a pile of rouge and powder; Ye Changqing was full of doubt, having just strolled around casually, yet he got so many things without spending a single coin.
Just damn, what would I do with a pile of rouge and powder? This is absurd; if the shop is running a promotion, the target should be those women.
What's the point of giving it to a big old man like me? Could it be that I go out and put on makeup?
Having lived two lives, Ye Changqing never thought his luck was that good; in fact, he felt somewhat like a non-lucky person.
But today's luck is truly unusually good.
Unable to figure it out, he could only first collect the things.
Not long after walking again, a brothel district suddenly appeared ahead.
Seeing this, Ye Changqing instinctively felt something was wrong; as expected, before he even arrived, several gorgeous women came up to him, smiling and saying.
Sir, congratulations...............
Congratulations, I won your stall's first prize?
No need to say, Ye Changqing had already guessed it; hearing that, the several women were also taken aback, but relying on their superb professional skills, they soon said with beaming smiles.
Sir, you are correct; you have won our stall's first prize, receiving a single service from the four top courtesans of Spring Fragrance Tower.
Holy shit, it's getting more absurd; these women are starting to give themselves away.
Tree fruits, fine wine, including rouge and powder, Ye Changqing tolerated them, but sending women is a bit hard to justify.
Moreover, damn, even a brothel district is playing this trick? Damn, raffling off courtesans is truly a petty prick to the butt, opening this old man's eyes.
However, I, Ye Changqing, am after all a disciple of the Dao Yi Sect, a proper orthodox sect; how could I....................
In the next second, Ye Changqing and Wei Feng were already seated in the private room.
All around were warbling swallows and fluttering beauties; one after another, lovely young women came forward to offer a toast.
Sir, your servant offers you a cup.
Sure, sure.
Sir, your servant will dance a piece for you.
Alright, keep playing the music and keep dancing.
I'm a disciple of the Dao Yi Sect—what's wrong with enjoying ourselves a bit?
We said we were just going out to travel, but we ended up staying at the Spring Intent Pavilion until late at night in a daze.
When Ye Zhangqing and Wei Feng returned to the city lord's manor, Zhao Zhengping, Xu Jie, and the others seemed to have been waiting here on purpose.
Xu Jie added with a smile.
"Junior brother, how's the fun? Still enjoying yourself?"
Rubbing his slightly dizzy head, Ye Zhangqing recalled those young ladies from the Spring Intent Pavilion and laughed.
"Not bad, everyone's very enthusiastic."
Wei Feng twitched the corner of his mouth unconsciously—indeed, this time following Ye Zhangqing, he had truly broadened his horizons.
He considered himself a playboy too, and before, he hadn't missed places like the Spring Intent Pavilion.
But only today did he realize that, compared to Ye Zhangqing, the things he used to play with were downright tame.
Although the two hadn't really done anything, the games Ye Zhangqing set up directly made Wei Feng play it in a shy way.
Damn, this Gōulán can be played like this?
Amid the crowd's escort, Ye Zhangqing returned to his room to rest.
The night passed in silence, and by the next morning after breakfast, Xu Jie and the others had already arranged everything.
Wei Feng found Ye Zhangqing and asked with a smile.
"Senior Brother Zhangqing, what are your plans for today?"
"Not yet, Junior Brother—do you have any suggestions?"
"Senior Brother, you could try worm‑fishing; it's a unique activity of our Tree City, and it's a lot of fun."
"Worm‑fishing?"
He hadn't heard of it either, and Ye Zhangqing asked curiously.
The so‑called worm‑fishing is actually an activity organized by Tree City; because of its location, there are many wood‑worms in the forest sea.
These wood‑worms feed on trees; if not cleared regularly, they will soon hollow out the trees, causing them to collapse.
So Tree City organized an activity called worm‑fishing, calling on everyone to participate.
On one hand it clears these wood‑worms; on the other, it's also an entertainment item—once a certain number of wood‑worms are caught, one can receive rewards from the city lord's manor and get some small gifts.
Even in Tree City there is a dedicated ranking list that encompasses all the worm‑fishing masters.
