Chapter 148: Wanted to visit a brothel
Suddenly hearing his younger brother-in-law say it was related to him, Gu Yu felt immediately curious, wondering what gossip it was?
The gossip related to him, could it be about the situation of being a resident?
How many days had it been since then? The heat should have subsided… or was it that the news of the Longevity Pill was exposed, causing a sensation?
After all, a magical pill like the Longevity Pill, which possesses heavenly buffs, would make any human greedy for it.
Because everyone wants to live a few more years.
Continuing to live would also allow them to complete the things they wanted to do.
Of course, some individuals didn’t have grand ambitions, they just wanted to enjoy a few more years of time.
“What is it?”
“Just follow me. Anyway, there’s nothing to do now. Brother-in-law, consider it a way to pass the time.”
After following Gu Qingheng out of Gu Residence and taking a roundabout route, just as Gu Yu was becoming impatient, the two finally arrived at their destination.
Looking at the not-so-small gambling house sign in front of them, Gu Yu couldn’t help but frown, thinking about when Gu Qingheng knew about such a place?
Although Gu Qingheng’s height had grown rapidly due to practicing martial arts recently, just by looking at his face, he was still just a child.
A place like a gambling house, it’s not a place a child can come to, right!
“Here?”
“Yes, brother-in-law, follow me inside, and you’ll hear gossip about you afterwards.”
“Wait for me first. I haven’t taken care of you these past few days, so how did you start frequenting this kind of place?”
Listening to Gu Qingheng’s urging voice, Gu Yu was no longer as anxious as before. Instead, he looked at his younger brother-in-law with a serious expression, wondering if he should tell Gu Mengyao about this news! If Gu Qingheng got addicted to gambling, it would be terrible! It’s very hard to quit.
“Ah? It just happened naturally… Wait, brother-in-law, aren’t you overthinking it!”
“It’s not a question of whether I think about it or not, but whether you’re learning to be bad!”
After understanding the meaning of Gu Yu’s words, Gu Qingheng couldn’t help but show a dejected expression on his face, wondering if he looked like a gambler?
During this period, Gu Qingheng had often entered casinos to eavesdrop on gossip.
During this time, he had seen many people whose eyes turned red from gambling, not only selling their houses and lands, but even their children…
In the eyes of these people, as long as they could have money to gamble, it didn’t matter if they sold everything.
Seeing such a terrifying scene, Gu Qingheng naturally didn’t want to touch gambling.
Even if someone saw his extraordinary clothing and invited him to gamble a round, Gu Qingheng directly shook his head, only saying that his clothes were borrowed and he wanted to wear them to show off.
As soon as he said this, no one invited Gu Qingheng anymore.
At the same time, those who had been looking at Gu Qingheng with scornful eyes, despising such people who were poor but pretended to be rich. Don’t come to the casino if you don’t have money. Wandering around here every day, who knows what shady things they might be up to!
When some people looked at him like this, Gu Qingheng ignored these overfed people and focused on mingling with the crowd, listening to all kinds of fresh and interesting gossip.
“Learning to be bad… brother-in-law, I didn’t go in to gamble. I just spent money to buy favors and let them let me in to listen to gossip.”
“…”
“Although I also wanted to visit a brothel, the madam said I was too young and no girls would entertain me, so she told me to come back in a few years.”
When Gu Qingheng revealed the truth of the matter, Gu Yu really didn’t expect it… There would be such a divine twist! His younger brother-in-law wasn’t addicted to gambling, he just went to the gambling house to inquire about gossip. He even wanted to visit a brothel. For a moment, the amount of information was a bit overwhelming, and Gu Yu couldn’t fully process it.
“To inquire about gossip, you’ve even come to a place like a gambling house? What about the teahouse! There’s also a lot of information there, which should be enough for you to collect.”
“The information heard in teahouses mostly overlaps with the information I already know, which is why I have to come to the gambling house to continue collecting… Although, there are many gamblers here with red eyes, there is a lot of gossip.”
“You still can’t come to this kind of place, it’s mixed with all sorts of people, what if someone wants to harm you?”
“It’s okay, I have medicinal powder with me. I’ll just sprinkle it and it’ll be over.”
Afterwards, listening to the pride in Gu Qingheng’s words, Gu Yu couldn’t help but roll his eyes, thinking that his younger brother-in-law was too naive! The effect of the medicinal powder is good, but what if there’s no time to make a move! In that case, they would still be very worried.
“Forget it, I originally wanted to talk about it after your Imperial examination ended, but seeing that you’re idle now, I’ll tell you in advance!”
“???”
“You know about the alliance that Bai Qian opened, right? There’s an intelligence department there. I plan to have Bai Qian put you in, and it will be safe to listen to gossip every day without making people worry.”
“Really?”
Immediately, after hearing what Gu Yu said, Gu Qingheng couldn’t help but show an excited expression, thinking that his brother-in-law was too good! Gu Qingheng had been coveting the alliance’s intelligence department for a long time. He just didn’t know how to get in. Now, with his brother-in-law Gu Yu’s guarantee, it was stable!
When Gu Yu saw Gu Qingheng’s excitement, he was also relieved, thinking that whether Bai Qian agreed or not, he would quickly give his younger brother-in-law a carrot to stop him from running into dangerous places! Of course, after Gu Qingheng became familiar with the alliance’s intelligence department, he could also help find the whereabouts of the last Iron Lion. The matter concerning the treasure map had always made Gu Yu very curious, and he wanted to find the treasure location as soon as possible to see if there were really many treasures! With the space, Gu Yu felt that he was very suitable for treasure hunting. On one hand, he could bring enough supplies, and on the other hand, he could take away all the buried treasures without leaving a single one! Just thinking about it felt very good!
“Of course it’s true, but you can’t run to dangerous places anymore in the future.”
“Heh heh, after joining the intelligence department, I probably won’t have time to run around randomly… However, because this time the gossip is related to brother-in-law, you should follow me in and take a look!”
“Okay, lead the way!”
Hearing Gu Qingheng’s words, Gu Yu was also very curious about what was related to him, so he followed Gu Qingheng into the casino together.
“You poor kid, why are you here again today! Do you really think a gambling house is a place for children to play house!” However, after entering the casino, before Gu Yu could observe the surrounding environment, a maliciously sounding voice immediately rang out.
