Chapter 1: Introduction
"Why should I believe you?"
A woman with red phoenix eyes, dressed in a peach-breasted skirt, and wearing a white mink cloak on the outside, slapped the sandalwood table, shaking the fine dust to float in the air. Her eyes were bloody, and her words were a little hoarse in anger.
A tear mole in the corner of his eye, but he still looks charming and coquettish.
Outside, the wind was bitter, and the snowflakes were flying on the red lanterns hanging outside the inn. Meng Shu, the proprietress of the inn, stood behind the counter with a standard smirk, and even spoke emphatically as if she had repeated it countless times: "You can choose not to trust, this is your freedom." ”
The woman in the pink skirt was obviously angry, her lips trembled and she wanted to scold a few more words. saw the proprietress say with a cold face: "Aunt Mei, send off." ”
"Alas, Miss Meng Shu. As he spoke, an old lady in a cloth garment with a kind face came out of the shadows. But with his hands and feet, he pushed open the door of the inn. The wind and snow poured in in an instant, and the candle flame that fell on the table melted away.
"This girl, please. ”
The woman turned to leave, but stopped again. Her shoulders were trembling, and the coral white jade lychee hairpin on her head was shaky.
She turned her head unwillingly and looked at Meng Shu's face that was not sad or happy: "What you say counts?"
Meng Shu smiled indifferently and agreed softly. The red lantern reflected in the wind and snow in his eyes. Aunt Mei closed the door again and made a cup of hot tea for the charming girl who was standing.
"Have you thought about it?" Under the half-bright candlelight, Meng Shu's white dress was ambiguous.
The woman's face calmed down, and she had to sigh and say, "I'm really reluctant." ”
"Cause and effect are fate, and giving and giving complement each other, depending on how you choose. Meng Shu looked at her.
The woman hesitated, "I'll put ...... These are for you. ”
As he spoke, his white fingers brushed over the table, and an eight-treasure exquisite box appeared. The inside was full of gold, as if the most dazzling things in the world were contained in this box. Glazed jade, golden hairpin crested. Meng Shu's slender little finger casually picked out a string of cloud-turning and gold-painted agate bracelets, and praised them in anticipation: "It's all good things." ”
The woman breathed a sigh of relief, but heard Meng Shu pause and add, "However, this is not what I want." ”
"Smack-" and the box closed.
Meng Shu pushed it into the girl's arms, "You better keep it." ”
"That's what is most precious to me. She was a little bitter, "Isn't that enough?"
Meng Shu shook his head, "For you, what is hard to buy? It's as important as life?" Her voice was elegant, but it was full of chills, which sent chills down the girl's spine.
She, the most beautiful woman in the capital, wants the wind to blow and the rain to rain. The splendid palace was just deserted in her eyes, and pearls and jade could not be exchanged for a smiling face. Graceful and luxurious, but she is not happy and is in a cage. Unfortunately, the man who was able to get her out is dead. Since we can't be together in this life, we will meet again when we come.
If you want to talk about suffering, she is just a cat demon who has just turned into a human form, and her mana is not enough to protect his life. I can only come to this legend can help to conclude the marriage between the two worlds, and see if there is a way.
However, here is her most precious thing!
The girl looked at the small red thread tied on the little finger of her right hand, and stroked it lightly, her thoughts burning like red wax, and she missed them in the middle of the night. She knew what Meng Shu wanted, but she couldn't bear it!
The gold and jade are not very good, why do you have to ask her to regard this as a red line like life?
"The night is still long, and you still have a lot of time to make decisions. ”
The girl looked at her, took a long breath and choked up, and said, "He said that without this thread, he would not be able to find me in the next life." ”
The moon is hidden in the clouds, and the candle flame is dim.
Aunt Mei brought two or three plates of delicate snacks and placed them in front of the two.
"My name is Yun Xi, and the day I took on my human form, I met him for the first time. ”
Without the hysteria just now, Meng Shu suddenly felt that Miss Yunxi was also very cute.
"It's been a long time since anyone told me a story, is this story long?"
"It's not long, it's as short as this red line. ”
————————————
I often think about the day we first met, it was a snowy day. Snowflakes were scattered like goose feathers under the sky, the north wind was howling, and there was no one on the streets. I didn't feel the cold, walking barefoot on the bluestone slabs, caressing the cold streets of the world. At that time, a young man in fresh clothes beat his horse, and the snowflakes that fell on the ground melted into water and froze.
I think he saw me, walking alone down the street. The boy stopped and asked me if I was lost. Where can I find a home? I don't have a home.
I shook my head and looked at him.
Later, I stayed in his house. His father was a famous general in Megaqua. After a few days of moving in, I learned that his name was Lin Zhao.
When I was a child, cherry red branches, soft red light. He often rode a horse and took me to the vast wilderness, listening to the spring breeze and spring warblers, and watching the sunset. At that time, I was still young, and I didn't know that love words were rare. I sat in his broad, warm arms and thought this was the best start of life. In those years, I seemed to have seen all the beautiful scenery in the world, and it was the happiest time of my life.
There are several apricot blossom trees in the yard, and we often lie under the trees, and the flowers blow all over our foreheads. At the palace banquet on the emperor's birthday, I danced in red, and he drank wine and talked happily during the banquet. People say that the general accepted a beautiful righteous daughter in the city, and since then she has been famous in all directions. I know the way people look at me, but unfortunately I already have a heart.
He said that when I grew up, he would marry me.
I have heard a legend in the world that if you tie your little finger with a red thread, you will be together for the rest of your life. That day I plucked a few red hairs from my own tail and turned it into a little red thread that tied it to me and his hands. The red phoenix hijab has been made, just waiting for the day when the scenery is beautiful.
It's a pity, it's a pity.
The enemy invaded, and Lin Zhao's father sent troops to resist. The opponent was outnumbered, and the mighty army smashed into the palace. And Lin Zhao also went to the battlefield with his father, and his life and death are unknown. Facing the enemy troops, his general's wife hugged her children tightly, shivering in the cold wind. I've just turned into a human form, and I don't have enough demonic power to protect them.
It was as if sinking into a frozen lake, and it was cold to the bone.
Originally, the more than 400 people in the General's Mansion were going to be buried together, but maybe at the emperor's palace banquet, my name reached the ears of the emperor of the enemy country. He wanted to see what the girl who danced in the city looked like. On that day, I was sitting in a peach-colored dress on the third floor of the General's Mansion in the library tower.
I asked them to release the General's Mansion.
They actually let it go.
