I Am Writing Novels In Liaozhai

After dinner, Lin Dong strolled around the capital for another afternoon, and finally took a tour of the capital.

Although not as familiar as the locals, at least I have a general understanding.

It is divided into five areas.

Among them, the imperial palace is in the center, and the four sides are guarded layer by layer, so it is also called Zhongcheng.

With the imperial palace as the center, the four directions of southeast, northwest and north are called the Four Cities.

The commerce in Dongcheng is the most developed, and it is generally the residential area and trading place for the rich. There is a restaurant opened here.

Xicheng is the residence of dignitaries, and most of the people living here are court officials.

Nancheng is the residence of ordinary people, with the largest number of people, but the environment is not very good.

The further south you go, the poorer the people live.

The house where Lin Dong currently lives is near the city wall in Nancheng.

But this place is under the jurisdiction of the capital after all, and the order is not bad.

As for the last North City, it is very lively. There are not only the largest entertainment venues in the capital, but also people from all over the world gather here, which can be described as a mixed bag.

Of course, the order is also extremely poor, and people from Martial Forest are even seen fighting in broad daylight.

Moreover, Lin Dong has also seen the existence of gangsters, and it is extremely arrogant to recruit people here to join the gang.

If it weren't for his attire as a scholar, he might have been dragged in by force.

After all, he is tall, burly, and extremely burly, and it looks like a good show for fighting.

However, if the order is poor, there is still order after all, it's just that there are unspoken rules.

For example, on that entertainment street, basically no one is making trouble here, even if someone makes trouble, it will be stopped soon.

After all, this is their pocketbook, and those who can come here to spend are generally not Common people.

If they offend some dignitaries who cannot afford to offend, or the second-generation rich, second-generation officials, etc., even these gangs can't stop them, and they may be banned in minutes.

This afternoon, Lin Dong was mostly wandering around the North City, dressed as a scholar, coupled with his dignified temperament, no one dared to provoke him.

As night fell, the entertainment street gradually became lively.

Some entertainment venues have hung lanterns on both sides of the gate, announcing that they are open for business.

On the attic, some girls also appeared one after another and began to solicit customers.

Lin Dong is highly skilled and courageous, plus he is rich and powerful, and has no shortage of money, so he went directly to the largest Cui Liu Pavilion.

After being a decent person for so long, it's understandable that I'm not serious once in a while.

He came quite early and asked for a box.

For this kind of place, he can be said to be familiar with the road, and with his ability, he immediately received extremely considerate hospitality.

"Call up the best girl!"

Lin Dong waved his hand carelessly, and threw out a stack of bank notes, looking like a nouveau riche.

The capital city is not like other small towns, where all transactions are done in cash, but there are many large and small banks.

If there is a bank, there will naturally be banknotes. Generally, large transactions are paid by banknotes.

Lin Dong went to do as the Romans did, and exchanged some banknotes for backup yesterday.

Come right away, sir, wait a moment!"

The bustard responded with a smile, then turned and left.

In a short while, amidst the sound of humming and emerald green, rows of girls have come to the treasure chest and let them choose.

This service is almost the same as that of modern clubs, almost in the same line.

And to be honest, the quality of the girls here is really good.

If it is in modern times, it is at least class-like appearance.

Lin Dong randomly picked a girl who was pleasing to the eye, and let the other women back down.

The old bustard was also very knowledgeable, so naturally he also left, so as not to disturb his enjoyment.

This girl named Xiaochun may have been specially trained to serve Lin Dong extremely attentively.

Even the knowledge is good, no matter what topic they talk about, they can answer one or two.

As time passed, the Cui Liu Pavilion gradually became noisy, and in the end it was almost full of voices.

"What's going on outside?" Lin Dong wondered.

"Sir, you don't see many people here!" Xiaochun said with a smile.

"First time!" Lin Dong said truthfully.

"No wonder!"

Xiao Chun gave Lin Dong a sip of wine and explained: "The next one is supposed to be playing a game!

"Oh? What game?"

Lin Dong asked with interest.

It was the first time he saw someone playing games in a brothel, and Guo Beizhen didn't have this project.

"There are many games that can be played, and I don't know what they are. If you are interested, you can go out and have a look. If you feel confident, you can also join in. If you win, you can also have unexpected gains! "

Xiaochun's eyebrows were full of spring, with a meaningful smile.

"Okay, let's go out and have a look first!"

Lin Dong grabbed Xiaochun's slender waist and took her down from own's arms.

Then rubbed her shoulders, the door.

As soon as the door was opened, the sound was even more noisy, and a few cheers could be heard from time to time.

Looking down, I saw a few tables and chairs on the stage where the singing and dancing were originally performed, and five young scholars were sitting on them, reciting poems, and standing behind them was a pleasing girl.

Some closed their eyes and meditated, some scratched their heads and ears, some were expressionless, and some were calm and confident.

613 As the girl of the Green Willow Pavilion, Xiaochun understood it when she saw it.

He smiled and said, 'My lord, they are playing Feihua Ling!'

"Flying Flower Order?"

After thinking about it for a while, Lin Dong knew the rules of the game.

As a modern person, this game almost disappeared in the previous life, but in ancient times, especially in the circle of scholars, it was extremely popular.

The gameplay is also very simple, that is poetry.

But it's not random recitation, it's still required.

Generally, a content is specified, and the player needs to recite poems in this content.

There are simple ones and some difficult ones, depending on whether the content is broad or not.

For example, the recited poems all need to tell the scenery of the four seasons, which is relatively easy.

If the poems to be recited are only limited to spring or winter, it will be more difficult.

The most difficult thing is the one-character flying flower order. As the name suggests, it uses one character as the theme and requires all players to recite it.

For example, "Snow" requires all poems to contain this word.

And the game played by these scholars on the stage below is the word flying flower order.

This requires excellent literary literacy and memory, otherwise, if you can only play one or two rounds, it would be ridiculous. .
