Chapter 250: Three Lies
When Ju Mang flew down, he was surprised and asked the two:
"So fast, what's in there?"
"Nothing, I suspect I didn't walk in. ”
"What do you mean?"
Xia Xiao and Ju Mang rose into the air together, because Ah Candle kept explaining and he could think quietly for a while. But they have been in for so long, and it is only a short time to the outside world. Was it shrouded in a rune, and touching the rusty lock would move it, or was it all just their illusion?
Ju Mang, who knew the ins and outs, couldn't guess as much as Xia Xiao, he kept watching outside, there was no movement around, there was no movement in the tower, and he didn't feel any of the black light of the wind dragon. But these things can be solved by going to stay in Xianju?
"I always feel that the woman named Qingyeer still knows a lot. ”
Liuxian Ju is still lively, the red lanterns are hung high, and every day is like a big day. As long as there is money, the people who come here can get married every night and enter the cave house for the first time. As long as they are not tired and have a lot of silver, those who stay in the immortal residence will not refuse. But today, Miss Qingye'er is still not hospitable!
She said to the outside world that she was sick and could not see outsiders, so as not to infect the dignitaries. The guest said that it was okay, and it was good to talk about the heart through the screen. Qing Ye'er said again that she couldn't get out of bed, so the distinguished guest stopped. Even the old bustard didn't know what Qingye'er was doing, and she didn't know herself, but people can always lose their minds for two sentences.
The day before yesterday, the little young master said that she was working so hard to live, but he lifted himself. If it was just to live, then she would have been able to take money into the mountains, build a small building, raise a yard of flowers and plants, and play the piano and read all day long, so that she could live comfortably. But she doesn't seem to be able to let go of this vanity, knowing that her current status is at the peak, but she can't take off the hat of this peerless oiran.
Maybe she felt that she didn't deserve the little master's words, or maybe she forgot why she did so much, so she was so confused.
The boudoir was lit with red candles, and Qingye Erxiu held her hand on the side face without powder, she wanted to read a book, but she gradually lost her mind. Although she said that she didn't go out yesterday, she knew that the little young master would definitely not go to that tower yesterday, and it would be too long to wait for tomorrow, maybe it would be today. She suddenly remembered that the young master was coming, and wanted to talk to him, but he was afraid that he would never come again.
A tower has stood for a long time, and naturally someone has paid attention. Some young cultivators have been unable to explore for a lifetime, and only to send back bad news, that is, after all, a forbidden place. The royal family did not say why it was forbidden, but the ban is forbidden, and touching it is a capital crime.
Qing Ye'er felt sorry, although she had just met Xia Xiao, she felt that the latter was an interesting person. It's not realistic to be close friends, but it's fun to chat.
"It's windy again?"
Qingye'er protected the wick and went to close the window, but two people broke in outside. A man and a woman dressed in black, carrying a backpack, came in successively with a bit of chivalry. When Qingye'er was slightly startled, she found that it was the little young master the day before yesterday.
"Why did the little master walk up the window?"
"It's all old people, so you don't need so much politeness, right?"
"The day before yesterday, you could hear me talking from so far away, it seems that the little young master is still a cultivator with good strength. ”
"Yes, indeed. ”
Qingye'er likes to talk like this, where it should be straightforward, and where it can't be told, it will be replaced by euphemisms. It's better than those officials who do everything falsely, and it's also fun.
"I was still thinking about the little young master just now, and I thought you would never come to my Immortal Residence again. ”
"I really admire that you can say so beautifully. ”
"Why does the little young master think I'm telling a lie?"
"Because I can't give you anything, why do you expect me to come?"
"Chat with you, a few words is my hope. ”
When the corners of Xia Xiao's mouth lifted, he shook his head slightly. Qingye'er was not annoyed when she saw it, she covered her lips with her hands, hiding a few smiles, but it was also like the sweetness of attracting insects, and when it came in, the leaf petals were closed, and the wings could not escape.
"And think I'm telling a lie?"
"Hmm. ”
"It may be that I usually tell too many lies, so when I tell the truth, it also looks like a lie, but what I say is true. It's like when you go to an ancient pagoda and you don't know what you've been through, but you do go in. ”
Xia Xiao's eyes rippled, he knew that it was right to come to her, but how did she know? She is not self-acquainted, at most she is just thick-skinned, but she is not as good as Xia Xiao, he and Qing Ye'er talk like real old friends, such as knowing each other for decades.
Ah Candle quietly watched him perform and listened to him ask:
"How do you know I've been in?"
"Although you are not drunk, you are very anxious to drink, it must be for her. Since it's for her, I naturally can't wait to find out. ”
"Then tell me about the tower. ”
"Now you're not afraid that I'll tell a lie?"
"You've told three lies, it's time to tell the truth. ”
"Is it good to tell the truth?"
Qing Ye'er propped her chin, as if she was teasing her younger brother, Xia Xiao didn't grind, and asked directly:
"What do you want?"
"I am not short of gold, silver, silk, and coolies, but what else do you have?"
Xia Xiao is just the son of a general, and he has nothing but gold, silver, and silk. He used to have a precious companion, but now he doesn't have one.
"Do you know the promise thing?"
Qingye'er suddenly asked about this, with stars in her eyes. In Xia Xiao, she was always playful, because she knew that the latter had nothing wrong with her, and knew that he just wanted to get something about the tower, so she indulged herself. People who don't covet themselves, Qingye'er can be friends with him.
Xia Xiao naturally knew the promise, but Qing Ye'er wanted to make an oath by himself, he didn't even dare to say his name now, and he didn't dare to make such a thing as a promise at will.
"I'm just asking, and I won't let you put a poison curse. ”
Seeing Xia Xiao's relieved look, Qingye'er asked:
"You'll at least have to tell me your name, right?"
Xia Xiao didn't want to answer this question, and looked at Qing Ye'er's fierce gaze. But she was not afraid of threats, but smiled.
"Don't try to be tough, or I won't tell the truth. And oh, I know why you came to me, it's not that I know much at all, and it's not that I have a good reputation, I'm a Qinglou woman after all, and the name of Oiran is just a high-end word for selling oneself to many people. You came to me only because I couldn't see the light, unlike the real scribes, right?"
"Clever. ”
Xia Xiao did not evade, he came to Qinglou for this important reason. Although there are countless people gathered here, it is mixed with fish and dragons, but it can never be on the big stage. Just like her light leaves, even if she can sing and dance, she will never be able to go to the palace, at most she will only go to the mansion of the important ministers to sing and dance, and be appreciated.
The word "lowly" was engraved in her bones, and Qingye'er gradually retracted her good face, frowning slightly.
"Since you really think so, then what are you talking about, get out!"
Qingye'er burst into foul language, she thought she had seen something terrible, but it turned out to be the same as previous men, it seems that whether it is an old man or a small man, they are all lustful men. In this case, what else does she have to talk about? She only sells her art and does not sell herself, but the mind of the person who listens to the song is not on the song, but in her, is it not her fault that she is being bullied and played?
"Farewell. ”
Xia Xiao didn't have time to coax her, and if she didn't say anything, she would find another way, a tower had been placed here for so many years, how could anyone know. Opening the window, Xia Xiao was about to leave, but Ah Candle was a little shaken.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Say it again. ”
"Then you have to think about it, that ancient tower is a forbidden place, even if you go in and are not discovered, there are strong people guarding it. The next time I changed people, my luck was not so good. ”
Qing Ye'er's words made Xia Xiao pause, and the latter finally turned around and chose to compromise.
"My name is Fang Huan. ”
Xia Xiao looked at Qingye'er, as if he had already told you his name, it was time for you to say it. But the latter didn't buy it, let alone her, even Ah Candle was surprised, isn't it good to choose a decent name? This is a girl's name, Qingye'er is so smart, she will definitely not believe it.
"It's not a good name at all. ”
Qingye'er glanced at Ah Candle and asked:
"What's her name?"
"Circle sorrow. ”
Qing Ye'er didn't react at first, but after knowing that it was an antonym, she burst out laughing.
"You're a ghost. ”
"Thanks, but you should say that my dad is a ghost. ”
Xia Xiao's name is sloppy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Xia Jinghong is a ghost. The meaning of the eldest brother Xia Xu is the rising sun, which means that as long as he is there, the territory of Great Xia can be permanently illuminated by the rising sun. The second sister Xia Wan, which means gentle. But his name is the surname of his parents together. Xia Xiao also imposed a meaning on his name, such as the tragedy of Feng Xiao Xiao and Yi Shui Han, but he was afraid of death, so he still had to return home.
"You don't really think I believe it, do you?"
"If you don't believe it, you can't help it. ”
"Could it be that your name is real?"
"Hmm. ”
"You are less fit than me to tell lies. ”
"Because what I'm saying is true. ”
Qing Ye'er didn't tell a lie today, but Xia Xiao didn't believe it, he felt that Qing Ye'er had said three lies, so he returned three lies, but these three lies were only told to himself.
