Half a year later, it was April when the spring flowers were blooming and the warblers were flying and the grass was growing, and a girl in a lake-blue pleated dress got off a carriage, raised her chin slightly, looked at the Lin'an City Gate in front of her, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a hint of a smile. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"See you again......" she said softly, beckoning the maid in the carriage to come down, and following the crowd into the city gate.

The maid in the pink dress followed for a while, and asked with a pout, "Miss, where can we find the Xiao Gongzi you said?" Didn't you say he was mad at you? Sure enough, I didn't send anyone to pick you up! ”

She was a little indignant as she spoke, as if a person had to put his own young lady in his eyes.

Green Ying has always had this temper, Xie Zhaolin already knew this, so she didn't care when she heard it: "You were wrong this time, I didn't tell him I was coming, so I really had to wait for him." ”

As she spoke, she followed the route in her memory to Louwailou, a tavern as famous as the capital.

Xiao Er is a discerning person, and he can see from his clothes that Xie Zhaolin is at least a person who can afford a private room, so he came over enthusiastically to ask.

Xie Zhaolin said a private room, but the other party frowned, "This room...... Forget it, miss, we still have a lot of empty private rooms, you can pick another one. ”

Seeing Xiao Er's embarrassed appearance, Xie Zhaolin glanced thoughtfully at the second floor and asked, "Is there already someone there?" ”

"There are no people, but this private room has been booked by a guest officer, and he always goes to that private room every time he comes back to us. So we're always full. Xiao Er showed a frightened look as he spoke, which showed how difficult Xiao Qian was to deal with in his eyes.

Or rather, how unprovoked.

That's it! Xie Zhaolin knew in his heart that it was okay to wait a few moments, and said, "Then will he come today?" ”

Xiao Er is an understanding person, and he faintly feels that Xie Zhaolin may know the cold son, so he has the heart to help, but he can't be sure, so he can only shake his head.

Xie Zhaolin no longer embarrassed him, and gave in: "In that case, is there still next door to that room?" If so, will it be there? I'll wait for him to come. ”

"Eh, yes, yes!" Xiao Er suddenly felt enlightened, and was busy leading Xie Zhaolin's master and servant to another room, but was interrupted by a cold voice: "Don't bother, I'm already here, you can take this young lady to me!" ”

Xie Zhaolin turned his head and found that the other party was Xiao Qian, who he hadn't seen for half a year.

He wore a tight-sleeved hunting suit with black dark stripes on a purple background, and his hair was tied up high, which made him look more extraordinary, but at the same time, he seemed to be more indifferent and unapproachable.

Seeing Xie Zhaolin looking at him, he only glanced at her slightly, then turned his gaze away and went upstairs with his footsteps.

Xie Zhaolin was a little embarrassed, paused, and followed upstairs.

came to the private room before and sat down, Xiao Er served tea as usual and asked the two to drink it first, so the two drank silently.

Xiao Qian held the teacup in one hand, drank it without a sip, and tapped rhythmically on the table with the other, again and again, the wooden tapping sound of the pear blossom wooden table echoed in the quiet room, but it was more difficult than the silent atmosphere.

"Smack." Xie Zhaolin deliberately put down the teacup a little heavily to attract the other party's attention, but Xiao Qian's fingers paused before continuing to tap rhythmically.

Xie Zhaolin was a little disappointed, sighed heavily, got up and prepared to leave, thinking about tomorrow, or coming back later.

She is also a somewhat arrogant person, unwilling to speak low and speak unequally to others, not to mention, this matter is not her fault.

However, just as she was about to leave her seat, Xiao Qian spoke unexpectedly, his voice was warmer than just now, but it was still full of coldness, and the words he said were more questioning: "I thought you would never come back?" ”

This tone made Xie Zhaolin unhappy again, she wanted to restrain herself, but the words she said were still full of aggression.

Her voice was clear and indiscible, and it all poured into Xiao Qian's ears: "This is not my home, there is no need for me to stay here!" ”

Xiao Qian looked at her for a while, then suddenly laughed to himself, and said, "Then I'm going to ask, you tried your best to escape, and now you're back, what do you want to do?" ”

"I ...... I have something to tell you. Xie Zhaolin was very depressed about this embarrassing scene, she was a little angry when asked like this, but the task required it, and she had to do something to Dragon Ball.

"What's the matter?"

"Well, I probably found out something about the Biyan you gave me last time, but I still have to go to a place to make sure." As soon as Xie Zhaolin's words fell, Xiao Qian's eyes lit up.

An hour later, the two of them were standing in front of the stone door carved with two dragons and not dragons. As before, Xie Zhaolin opened the chain lock and walked in first.

The torches in the stone room had been lit by Xiao Qian, reflecting the inner space, Xie Zhaolin looked at the huge animal skeleton on the stone platform again, and the dragon ball that was coiled, his palms were sweaty.

"Can I take another look at that bead?" Xie Zhaolin deliberately said that it was the bead to show that she didn't take the legend of the dragon ball too seriously.

Xiao Qian didn't object, so Xie Zhaolin cautiously walked over and picked up the dragon ball, looked at it carefully, and turned it as he watched.

After about two cups of tea, she carefully put back the beads the size of a human head, and her eyes were already a little more determined.

"How's it going, did you find anything?" Xiao Qian was a little excited, he could see from Xie Zhaolin's eyes that the other party seemed to have discovered something.

It's a pity that Xie Zhaolin poured a basin of cold water on him, she looked back at the bead and said, "The matter is clear, that bead and Biyan are the same material." It's just a matter of solid and liquid. The color will vary after curing. ”

"So, what material is it made of?" Xiao Qian didn't hear the meaning of Xie Zhaolin's words, and continued to ask.

Xie Zhaolin bit his lip when he heard this: "This bead is from that skeleton, and that skeleton is estimated to be some kind of animal, that is to say, this is a biological material, and there is no way to make it, unless, this animal is still alive in the world." ”

Xiao Qian's expression really darkened, a little disappointed, and then beckoned Xie Zhaolin to come out.

Xie Zhaolin took one last look at the bead, and the corners of her mouth hooked up an imperceptible smile.

She knew that the crack on the Dragon Ball would grow bigger and bigger in the years to come, and finally it would be impossible to clean up.
