It was almost dusk. Dugu Ce strolled into Peng City leisurely, his posture as casual as a scholar.
After entering the city, he casually looked around and saw that there were many shops in Peng City. Pedestrians came and went like weaving. Stallholders peddled along the streets. There were few beggars and refugees on the streets and alleys. It seemed that they were not affected by the chaotic times at all.
Dugu Ce strolled aimlessly in the city, enjoying the scenery of Peng City.
He was calm and handsome. His every move did not lose the strength of a good man. Wherever he passed, he would attract the attention of passers-by.
Especially the young girls. When they saw Dugu Ce, they all smiled charmingly and stared at him without blinking.
Dugu Ce was already used to such treatment back in Luoyang.
Whenever he met the girl's attention, he would return her with a gentle smile.
There was a recent rumor in Luoyang that no woman could stop Dugu Ce's smile.
This rumor was true.
He only smiled lightly, and the girls were dazzled, their hearts trembling, and their faces blushing. Dugu Ce drifted away, leaving behind a broken heart…
A true playboy would always walk among thousands of flowers without touching a single leaf.
When they reached a beautiful street, Dugu Ce suddenly sensed something. He felt a gaze that contained deep resentment and regret staring at him. His heart skipped a beat. He turned his head and saw a burly youth standing by the street, staring at him darkly.
That youth was Kuo Zhong.
At this moment, Kuo Zhong no longer had the cheerful and open-minded temperament from before. His entire body seemed to be shrouded in a layer of shadow, emitting a bone-piercing chill. He stared at Dugu Ce with eyes full of hatred. His gaze was like a blade that wanted to cut him into pieces.
Dugu Ce smiled and nodded at Kuo Zhong.
Kuo Zhong stared at him deeply, then turned around and walked into the door of a brothel.
Dugu Ce looked up and saw a plaque hanging on the door of the brothel, with the words "Emerald Court" written on it.
After pondering for a while, Dugu Ce passed through the square where more than ten carriages were parked and walked toward the main building of Emerald Courtyard.
As soon as he stepped onto the steps of the main building, a middle-aged woman came over and said with a smile,"Aiyo, this young master is really unfamiliar. Is this your first time coming back to our Emerald Courtyard? You really have good taste. In Pengcheng Prefecture, our Emerald Courtyard is second to none, and there are many beautiful women!”
"Is that so?" "Take me to see it," Dugu Ce said lightly.”
He had never liked women of the wind and dust. Perhaps it was because the woman had experienced too many men and her body was too turbid, which did not benefit his cultivation at all. Therefore, no matter how attractive the leader of the fireworks was, Dugu Ce would never show any courtesy or smile.
The only flowers he loved were good homes. If it was a good family with strong martial arts, that would be the best.
When Dugu Ce put on a cold expression, he had the graceful bearing of a scion of a noble family. The middle-aged woman knew a lot of people and could tell that Dugu Ce had an extraordinary bearing. She didn't dare to look at him casually, nor did she dare to ask for favors. After a few words, she respectfully led him into the Emerald Pavilion.
When he entered the hall, two well-behaved maidservants of sixteen or seventeen years old came to greet him. They poured tea and water for Dugu Ce and helped him wash his hands and wipe his face. They were extremely attentive.
Dugu Ce cleaned himself up and took a sip of his tea. He then looked around and saw that there were more than ten tables of guests in the hall. It was noisy. However, there was no sign of Kuo Zhong.
He frowned slightly and said to the middle-aged woman,"Is there a casino in the Emerald Building?"
"Of course there is." The middle-aged woman replied respectfully. This servant will bring Young Master over now."
Dugu Ce followed the middle-aged woman out of the back door of the main building and saw a gravel road connecting the back door of the main building to another door on the opposite side. There were neatly trimmed flower gardens on both sides of the broken road. People were coming and going on the road, making it very lively.
Dugu Ce heard a clamor coming from behind the gate. It seemed like there were hundreds of people inside. Listening carefully, he could hear the sound of dice, Pai Gow, and other gambling equipment colliding. He smiled and said to the middle-aged woman,"Go back first. This young master will go by himself.”
After saying that, he ignored the middle-aged woman and walked straight to the magnificent casino door opposite.
As soon as he stepped into the casino, a short and fat man came up to Dugu Ce and said with a smile,""This young master looks unfamiliar. Is this your first time visiting our casino? Young Master looks talented and must be the son of a rich man. Gambling with these boors in the hall is really beneath Young Master's status. Do you want me to arrange a VIP box for you and invite a few young masters with status to play with you?”
Dugu Ce frowned and waved his hand.""This Young Master is looking for fun, there is no need for you to worry. You can leave now."
Dugu Ce deliberately revealed a sense of arrogance in his movements, indicating that he was used to ordering his servants around.
The short and fat man was also a discerning person. Seeing his attitude, he did not say anything more. He bowed deeply and said,"Then I wish you a pleasant time.”He quickly retreated.
Dugu Ce's brows relaxed. He casually glanced around and saw that the casino was huge. There were all kinds of gambling tables and even tables and chairs. They were all gorgeous and exquisite. They looked rich and elegant.
Moreover, the venue was wide. Not only were there three entrances, but there were also connected halls on the left and right of each entrance. Therefore, even though there were four to five hundred people gathered, it was not crowded at all when they entered the connected casino.
The most eye-catching thing was that in each hall, the dealers in charge of the gambling, and even the waitresses who served tea and wine were all beautiful girls. They were all dressed sexily. They were only wearing a red shirt that looked like their breasts and bellies, paired with a lake-green short shirt, completely exposing their jade-like arms and fair, slender, beautiful legs. When she shuttled between the various gambling tables, her breasts and buttocks were even more voluptuous. If it was a novice in love, seeing such a scene, he would be mesmerized and his mouth would be dry.
"If you win the bet, then I'll do the beauty to liven things up. If he lost the bet, he would screw the beautiful woman to bring bad luck. Regardless of whether they won or lost, the money of the gamblers would always be squandered in Emerald Court. This kind of business philosophy really understood human nature.”
Dugu Ce didn't look at those girls and only thought to himself.
He was a true veteran of women. In his previous life, he had disguised himself as a university student and picked up the prettiest girl in his class, department, academy, year, and campus. He was used to seeing all kinds of beautiful women and had seen many flirtatious scenes. He didn't care about the small scene in front of him at all.
Moreover, he didn't like women with fireworks. No matter how attractive those girls looked, their bodies and Qi were extremely turbid. Dugu Ce couldn't take them seriously.
After a quick glance, he turned a blind eye to the girls and strolled around the gambling hall, looking for Kuo Zhong.
When they reached the central hall, a faint smile appeared on Dugu Ce's face. He had already seen Kuo Zhong's figure.
He saw Kuo Zhong sitting in front of a gambling table on the left, playing dice. Beside him sat an extremely beautiful woman, who was like a red dot among the green bushes in the casino.
