"I ......" was mentioned by the words of the green-shirted girl, and the departure who was thinking about coming out to play had to recall the scene of being caught on weekdays, and his voice instantly became low, and his little hand pinched the corner of his clothes, and he opened his mouth to explain.

"Ping'er, don't scare Xiaoliluo. The girl smiled and quipped, got up and took Liluo's little hand, and was ready to sit back in her position, "Come, Xiaoliluo, let's watch this new play together." ”

"Hey, two young ladies, this is absolutely unacceptable!" I don't know where to go, a chubby figure stumbled out, and after a closer look, it was the money shopkeeper of this restaurant.

At this time, facing the money shopkeeper of the three people, his expression was very panicked, and he felt a little bitter in his heart.

He's been in the hall early this morning.

This stage is exactly his new rehearsal. Seeing so many people cheering so early in the morning. Even in front of his own scheme, the money shopkeeper who wanted to maintain a little majesty couldn't hold back that pretending to be serious, and the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't even hide his beard. When I found out that not only Miss Sun of the former Shaoqing family of Dali Temple and Miss Biao of the cabinet bachelor's family came to watch the play together, but also discussed the plot of his new play very much in the play. I have to say that the money shopkeeper is still a little secretly proud in his heart.

These two daughters, but they have been in the capital for more than ten years, if they hadn't come to the city with their ancestors to take root and retire, I'm afraid, in a few years, they will be the main mothers of the princes and nobles. What did they not see in any strange way? But to be able to pay so much attention to his newly written drama is undoubtedly an affirmation of him.

However, before he had time to be happy for a while, he shook his mind and saw that these two daughters were actually pulling a little girl, ready to watch the play together. And that girl, isn't she the little city lord who knows everyone in the whole city!

This is...... Skinny again?

The thought flashed in his heart, but now it was too late for the money shopkeeper to think about it. If the city lord knew that the little lady was so young, but he was here to read these scripts, what would he do in this business?

"Money shopkeeper, why don't you speak? Why can't you do it?"

After being named by the girl, iQue's money shopkeeper was stunned, so he quickly put on a more helpless expression, looked at the three people who were looking at him, and said very sincerely: "The young ladies don't know, this new script hasn't been written yet, and it's over here." So, if you want to see the next plot, it is estimated that you will have to wait a few days. That's why I can't do it. ”

went around in a circle, and finally came back.

The money shopkeeper secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Really?" Ping'er was skeptical.

"Yes, yes, yes. The money shopkeeper replied repeatedly, afraid that they would not believe it, put his hand behind his back, and said while gesturing at the counter, "No, the people below are ready to play." ”

When he heard this, he turned his head curiously.

I didn't know when, the pretty woman who was still standing on the stage, or the son who was as graceful as jade, all withdrew, and on the steps of the side platform, a slightly fat white-haired old man stumbled up, and his two hands were still trying to put on the jade crown on his head. Finally tidy up, under the gaze of everyone, the old man put his hand to his mouth with some embarrassment, coughed lightly, stroked his gray beard, closed his eyes, as if he was recalling, until a moment, he opened the folding fan, and said slowly.

"In other words, a long, long time ago, the land under our feet was not just as big as it is now. At that time, there was no country either. They are all independent cities, taking care of each other and hostile to each other, just like we are leaving the city now......"

The old voice, full of traces of the erosion of time, tells the history that I don't know if it's true or not.

Originally, I didn't seem to understand the play just now, and I was a little confused, but at this time, I was also attracted by the content of this old storyteller. Sitting upright, his eyes staring at the old man on the stage without blinking.

"Everyone is beautiful, the scenery is picturesque everywhere, there are wild history books, and there were even immortals at that time!"

"Immortals, are there really immortals?" As soon as these words came out, someone below couldn't help but ask out loud.

"Isn't it just like those immortals and Taoist priests around the emperor now?" a rough man's voice.

"How can it be considered a god, it is estimated that it is almost the same as swaggering. When a woman heard this, she pouted, "If you want me to say, the book is probably about a person as handsome as a fairy! You think about it, a person who is as handsome as a fairy, don't we leave the city, look at the lord and his wife, who are not only gentle and polite, but also kind-hearted, but also pray for the blessings of our people." Look at that style again......"

"Yo, demeanor, your family sells pork every day, what kind of demeanor can you see?"

The woman's face flushed slightly, and she waved her hand, "Anyway, I think our city lord's family is different." If they weren't immortals, I don't think there would be any immortals in this world, not even the ones around the emperor now!"

"Aunt Wu family! I see, our emperor wants to invite the gods to cure his illness, it is best to invite you over first, at least let you palm your eyes, and see if it is true or false?"

In an instant, there was laughter.

Licheng was originally built on a wasteland and did not belong to Zhongli Kingdom. The people who first came here were all refugees who fled the disaster, or were in distress and lost, and most of them had received the favor of Li Qingxuan and Yu Qingning. Later, after Emperor Zhong Liguo knew about the existence of this city, he sent people to investigate, and Qing Xuan simply went to meet the emperor with the officials who came, and he didn't know what to say to the emperor. In short, leaving the city or leaving the city, but compared with the past, more people in Zhongliguo who are willing to live here are famous for coming to live.

For the people who left the city, the emperor was a distant existence for them, and the fear was not as much as that of the city lord. Therefore, there are no taboos for people to chat.

Looking at the lively discussion in the audience, the old man smiled slightly, touched his long white beard, and did not nod or shake his head, until the voice below tended to become more and more violent, and then he raised his volume slightly, and said in a long voice.

"Guys, you don't have to argue. Although these are all heard by the old man from his ancestors, there is no exact way to prove whether there are immortals, but you might as well think about it, in the Lost Forest in Jiangzhou, in the Mingfeng Temple in Liangcheng, and in the Liuli Jingzhan on the bank of the Pingcheng River, which of these can be created with human power? Just in that Lost Forest, how many capable people and strangers who are proficient in formations on the rivers and lakes have gone to investigate, but who has returned safely? Then, it is not only the formation, there must be something else. ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but fall silent.

Indeed, the Lost Forest is thousands of miles long, and it is indeed difficult to create it with human power alone. And I heard that it is very strange, not only is it difficult to get out of it by mistake, but it is also strangely tight in some places, as if there is no gas, and people can't breathe wherever they go, so they can only choke their necks and finally fall to the ground and die.

There is that timid person, thinking of this, I can't help but shudder.

"That old man, you say, if there are really immortals, then why don't they exist now?" The rugged man from before couldn't help but raise his head and ask after looking at the people around him who didn't speak.

Only a very small number of people know about this.

The old man was a little reserved and proud for a moment, then he stopped selling Guanzi, and then threw out another topic: "Do you know that the evil sea in the northeast of Zhongli Country?"

Bad Sea?

What is that?

And what does this have to do with the gods?

has always only stayed in Licheng, who has never known about the outside world, holding his chin in his hand, looking at the storyteller on the stage in fascination, thinking hard. A small face made of pink and jade makeup also became wrinkled.

Suddenly, someone gently patted her shoulder, pouted, turned her head, and complained slightly: "Sister Ping'er, you ......"

Before he finished speaking, when he saw the appearance of the person behind him, he was speechless.

Out of the corner of his eye, he subconsciously looked for Ping'er and the others, but found that the two girls had disappeared for some time, and the chubby body of the money shopkeeper who was still by his side was standing tremblingly in the hidden place of the hall at this time, looking very uneasy.

Looking at the bustle in the hall, it seems that there is no anomaly here.

It seems that foreign aid will not be able to help.

Alas.

Li Qingxuan's face was dark, looking at his daughter's old sigh, with a disgusted look, he couldn't wait to take her home quickly. They have left home, and for many generations, they have never heard of such a headache!

Half-grown children actually come to the restaurant every day to listen to the play, and they don't fall for a while, which is more punctual than when they went to the ancestral hall at home to sign in when they were children!

Don't do your job, don't do your job!

Gritting his teeth, he secretly thought that this time he must harden his heart and let Mrs. discipline this girl well. But when Li Qingxuan saw the flickering, clear and bright eyes looking at him, his heart instantly softened.

In the end, it was because of him, if it weren't for him, their daughter might have been like the children of the clan a long time ago......

Liluo originally shrunk her neck, thinking that her father would scold her fiercely, and the worst thing was to take her home with a fierce face as usual.

However, there was no movement until half a day, and when she looked up curiously, she found that her father's face was not only black, but also white for a while, and blue for a while?

Could it be that she is really angry?

Thinking of this, Liluo hurriedly pulled the sleeves of his father, with a flattering look, and a flattering look: "Daddy, let's go home, I'm afraid my mother is in a hurry?"

Thinking of his gentle and elegant wife, and then looking at the smiling girl with a courteous face, Qing Xuan was helpless in his heart, although his tone was stern, but it was also much softer, he hugged her up, and prepared to walk to the door: "Nonsense! I know that your mother is worried about you all day long! You still run out! Go back with me!"

Hearing the color of Li Qingxuan, he let go of most of his heart. Just looked at the old man on the stage getting farther and farther away, and felt sorry in his heart, and with a roll of his eyes, he had an idea. Pretending to be happy, he shared what he had just heard with his father as if he were a baby: "...... Daddy, what do you say the evil sea has to do with the immortals? Are you also curious? If you're curious, let's listen to it next time, okay?"

After that, he stared at Li Qingxuan without blinking, and his little face was full of anticipation.

I didn't expect that even in such a remote place, I could hear a little bit about it.

Listening to Liluo's words before, he turned pale again, and didn't say a word at this time, glanced back at the storyteller deeply, and then turned his head and left without saying a word.

This is...... Agreed? or didn't say yes?

Liluo, who was picked up by his own father and strode back, lay his little head on Liqingxuan's shoulder, looked at the restaurant behind, and racked his brains to ponder. I didn't even notice the onlookers on the street.

In fact, it's been so many times, even if she notices, she has nothing to be shy about......

Liluo, who is full of love for strange stories, thinks of a way until he sees two familiar figures, and he doesn't stop.

Why is Sister Chunyan with Aunt Yang?

In a flash of inspiration, Xiao Liluo suddenly understood why his father was so accurate this time!

"Second aunt!"

Second Aunt Yang, who was politely talking to Chunyan on the side of the road, habitually looked at it as soon as she heard this immature voice.

When I looked up, I saw a pair of beautiful apricot eyes, staring at her without blinking, her little face was very depressed and aggrieved, and she complained loudly: "Second aunt!

The tone was indignant and very unsettled.

The whole street listened.

Ouch, this little lady......

The second aunt of the Yang family sighed in her heart, only to see the back of the city lord holding her daughter, paused for a moment, and then strode forward, as if there was something chasing behind, and quickly disappeared.

……

Liluo lay on his father's shoulder, pouting, his face was unhappy, and he held his fingers uncomfortably, counting how many buns he had bought in January recently. Before she could figure it out, she could profoundly summarize the seriousness of Aunt Yang's "betrayal", and she was put on the ground by her own father.

When I saw it, I had arrived at the mansion.

It's just that, looking at the scene outside the mansion, she blinked slightly, a little confused, and a little uneasy, turned around and carefully pulled away from Qingxuan, and shouted softly, "Daddy......"

Their family has always had few rules, plus the folk customs here are simple, the little grandson who is the doorkeeper on weekdays loves to pestle outside the door and chats with everyone, while the little brother loves to secretly avoid eating some snacks, such as peanuts and fruits. But today, neither of them saw any of them......

This is a habit every year, how can it be ...... today?

As if feeling the uneasiness of his little daughter, Li Qingxuan touched Liluo's head as if he was comforted, a dark color floated in his eyes, and in a blink of an eye, he pressed down, his face was as usual, he took his daughter's hand and walked into the mansion.

When I entered the courtyard, I saw the figure of the maid running in and out in a hurry, and there was a bit of solemnity in Qing Xuan's eyes. In this city, except for the officials sent by the emperor from time to time, his subordinates need to be so busy and treat him well to save face, and I am afraid that no one can let him entertain so much.

And now, just look at the posture in this courtyard......

Could it be the people there?

Li Qingxuan squinted his eyes slightly, thinking.

It wouldn't be surprising if the people there knew they were here. In previous years, there were occasionally some friends there who came to visit, but after all, they were friends, although they were good at hospitality, they were not so respectful...

But who is it now that makes Madame so ......

Can't help but speed up the pace of Liqing Xuan, and walk towards the main hall with Liluo.
