Chapter 15: The Swallow Girl

After Ye Qian ran out of Yaqu, she regretted that her intestines were green, and she hated to give herself a few knives, so she could even say such hurtful words! Master must have regretted it, regretting that he saved and raised her such a white-eyed wolf, right? However, she really doesn't want to get married, she doesn't want to live a life in front of her grandfather like her grandmother, she doesn't want to take her husband as her husband like all the women in the world, even if she has no feelings, even if she has never met, no matter how mediocre and incompetent the man she marries, how dirty she is, she has to willingly accept her fate and live humbly and forbearantly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info She was afraid of that kind of life, and she was afraid that Qingyin would leave, leaving her alone in this world, and she didn't dare to imagine such a desperate and helpless future, so she wanted to be selfish and let Qingyin stay......

Ye Qian has never gone out of the gate of Yaqu alone, because there are always some strange things on the street, and she was born with a pair of yin and yang eyes, and she didn't take Huang to remind her, she couldn't even tell which ones were people, and which ones were demons and monsters hidden in the crowd and turned into human shapes.

Ye Qian stood in place, looking blankly at the pedestrians in the market, and then looked back at the gate of Yaqu, Master must be angry with her, right? But she doesn't want to go back now and admit her mistakes, admitting her mistakes means that she has to accept that family business obediently. Ye Qian let out a long sigh, and for a while she didn't know where else she could go and where she should go.

As the sky approached dusk, the afterglow of the remnant sun scattered on the branches of the Ink River, leaving sparkling waves. The river flows silently.

"Mother, how are you? Feeling better? Not far away, a mother and daughter walked slowly along the river, not like the usual dress of Qi people, the young woman was about twenty years old, with a deep cloth skirt, holding a hanging bun, struggling to support her mother beside her, walking slowly and difficult step by step. The older woman could not tell her age, although her hair was gray, there was no deep frown on her face, and she was hunched up, and her pale face was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans.

"Shu'er, my mother is fine, I'm dragging you down."

"Mother, where did you say, this is what my daughter should do!"

The older woman didn't speak again, but turned her head to the sparkling river and let out a long sigh.

"Mother, do you want to rest for a while before leaving?" The young woman pointed to a large rock not far away.

The older woman looked in the direction of the young woman's finger, and hesitated, it was getting late, and if they couldn't find a place to stay, they would have to sleep on the streets tonight, but she really couldn't walk, and nodded, "Okay, just rest for a while." ”

The young woman took out the water bag and let the older woman drink some water, and then stood behind her and rubbed her back and legs, and the older woman kept smiling as the young woman was busy around her, and from time to time gently persuaded her to sit down and rest for a while.

Ye Qian looked at the warm mother and son for a long time, both envious and sentimental, she had never experienced this kind of warmth between mother and daughter. Ye Qian sniffed, wiped the tears on his face, pursed his lips bitterly and smiled, in fact, there was only one thing ten years ago, but the last tenderness of her biological mother ten years ago was given to her who was about to die. Over the years, Ye Qian has not been able to understand why they would give up their own flesh and blood and ruthlessly throw her into the mountains to feed the beasts?

Ye Qian took a deep breath, but smiled slightly, maybe she should thank them for abandoning her, otherwise how could she meet Master and meet Rhubarb! Thinking of this, Ye Qian no longer indulged in the pain of the past, restrained his thoughts, and wanted to step forward to ask if the mother and daughter needed help. However, the moment she moved her steps, she retreated, for she faintly saw a faint green glimmer as the young woman bent down.

Chenghuang squatted not far away and looked at Ye Qian, he saw all her thoughts in his eyes, but he felt that she needed to stay alone and quietly for a while, so she didn't lean over. Seeing that Ye Qian finally figured it out, he paced forward, yawned, and said, "Don't worry!" They're not monsters. ”

"Rhubarb?" Hearing that familiar voice, Ye Qian turned his head and looked back at Chenghuang in surprise and joy, "Why are you here?" ”

"I'm not coming? Hum...... Are you going to come out and add food to the youkai? ”

Ye Qian smiled awkwardly, then squatted down, looked at Cheng Huang with his knees crossed, tilted his head and asked with a smile, "Did Master let you come?" ”

"Or do you think I'm willing to take care of you?" Chenghuang wagged his tail and rolled his eyes, "What an unconscious child!" ”

Listening to Chenghuang say that although Qingyin was angry, he still couldn't bear to ignore her, Ye Qian only felt warm in his heart, happily picked up Chenghuang, and rubbed his face against his round head, "Rhubarb is the best!" ”

"Ahem...... Cough! Let go! Let it go! Chenghuang fluttered his little short legs and slapped Ye Qian's face with the pink meat pad under his paws, "Men and women don't kiss!" ”

Ye Qian laughed, and the silver bell-like laughter also attracted the attention of the mother and daughter. As soon as she looked up, she met the kind and kind gaze of the older woman, and nodded embarrassedly with a red face. got up, smiled slightly and whispered in Chenghuang's ear: "Rhubarb, have you seen a green glimmer on that young woman?" ”

"Huh?" Cheng Huang fixed his eyes and looked at it, "No, are you dazzled?" ”

"Oh......" Ye Qian also frowned and looked carefully, no matter how you look at it, there is indeed a glimmer of light on the woman's waist, since she can't see it, then there should be no problem.

Ye Qian walked over with Chenghuang in his arms, bowed to the older woman, nodded slightly to the young woman, and asked, "...... you guys Are you here to find your relatives? Seeing that the two of them were slightly stunned, Ye Qian touched his ears embarrassedly, and added: "Because of you, you don't look like Qi people." ”

The older woman sat sideways on the boulder, smiled and nodded, "We are originally from Yan Kingdom, and we are indeed here to find relatives, but we are afraid of ......" sighed, her tone was full of endless sadness, and she smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid we can't find it." ”

"Mother, how can you say that, we will definitely find it!" The young woman hurriedly frowned and interrupted the elder woman's words, and at the moment when she spoke and leaned over, a piece of jade pendant on her waist hung down from her deep clothes, Ye Qian hurriedly glanced at it, and the green glimmer came from the jade pendant.

Just by glancing at it, Ye Qian's eyes seemed to be stabbed by something, and there was a faint pain, she couldn't help but close her eyes and rub them gently. After a brief period of darkness, a picture suddenly flashed in my mind, the towering mountain peaks were covered with snow, the endless white snow, there was no other color between the sky and the earth except white, the deathly silence, the breath of despair.

"Little sister, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Ye Qian's eyes closed and looking pained, the young woman hurriedly asked.

Ye Qian shook her head, the picture came and went so fast that she didn't have time to capture it at all, and there was only a white expanse left in her mind. Slowly getting used to opening his eyes, he curled the corners of his mouth and smiled, "I'm fine." "It's getting dark, the pedestrians in the market are all returning home, the demons and monsters hidden in the dark are about to move, Ye Qian is in a hurry to go back, but if you help people, you have to help them to the end, you can't ignore them." It's getting dark, and it may not be easy for you to find a place to rest, but if you don't have anywhere to go for a while, you can come to my house," she pointed in Yaqu's direction, "My house is over there." ”

Cheng Huang patted Ye Qian's wrist with his paw and shouted, "Xiao Yezi, how can you take someone home casually?" ”

"Rhubarb, let's help them." Ye Qian whispered.

"Just your kindness!" Chenghuang pursed his lips and gloated: "Don't forget, you're still messing with the old immortal!" ”

Ye Qian was stunned, she had forgotten. Ignoring Cheng Huang's yin and yang tone, she looked at the mother and son expectantly, she would never casually bring strangers into Yaqu without Qingyin's consent, but today she didn't know why she was close to them, as if a voice in her heart was constantly telling her to help them.

The young woman was a little troubled, she was alone, although they didn't have anything valuable, they could guard against people's hearts, and Ye Qian was indeed too enthusiastic. "Why are you embarrassed to bother?"

Ye Qian didn't think about it so much, thinking that it was not easy for the mother and daughter to be outside, she just wanted to help. "It's not troublesome, there is no one in my family, and it is not easy for you to go out, and my aunt seems to be sick."

"Then bother!" The older woman patted her daughter's hand lightly and interrupted what she was about to say, "Shu'er, help your mother up!" ”

When the young woman saw that her mother agreed, she did not say much, and besides, the little sister did not look like a wicked person.

Ye Qian put down Chenghuang and stepped forward to help the young woman walk towards Yaqu with the older woman. After a simple meal, Ye Qian arranged for them to live in the house where the Wang couple lived before their deaths, so that they could be regarded as temporarily living in Yaqu.

A few small talks, some simple understanding of each other. It turned out that the mother and daughter, the mother's name was 'Ji Wei' was the daughter of the nobles of Yan Kingdom, and she was only in her early forties this year, and her daughter's name was 'Tian Shu' twenty and three, and she was Ji Wei's only daughter. The mother and daughter came this time to find the Tian man who abandoned his wife and daughter eleven years ago without leaving a word.
