Chapter Seventy-One: Sima Mansion
"Then do you still want to practice? It's not good for you to stay here! Xia Yejin said quickly, pulled up his sleeves and was about to leave. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
But the other party did not move.
The slender eyes rarely showed a deep color, and he asked in a hoarse voice, Cultivation is my business, why are you so nervous?
Hearing this, Xia Yejin couldn't help but want to hit her head against the wall, and said in her heart, can I not be nervous? You're at stake in my mission and salary! But obviously he couldn't tell the other party the reason so bluntly, and when he was about to open his mouth to pour him a bowl of chicken soup for the soul, there was a voice in front of the rockery.
"Red Jade girl, you really have to believe me, the yin qi in the house is too heavy, if you don't expel it, it will be too late, and that fox, it's even more-"
"Okay, can you stop talking all the time, isn't it annoying to see our young lady?!"
Xia Yejin sighed in her heart, the secret path is really narrow. This bite of gold is really fateful, and he hasn't been killed like yesterday. Forget it if you don't kill you, today you are not afraid of death and rushed to Sima Mansion to persuade Miss Hongyu to collect demons?
Seeing the group getting closer and closer, and wondering how to get out, the fox broke free of her hand first, and disappeared into the flowers next to her in the blink of an eye.
The voice stayed, "It's so ugly to always call the fox, I have a name, it's called Mozi Li......"
What a messy name, it's better to call it a fox.
Xia Yejin felt a snag in her heart, and when she heard the familiar and flat voice getting closer and closer, she had a toothache again.
Sure enough, it's not a good thing for this trip to bite gold! was destroyed by the same person twice in a row, and her bad luck was able to go directly to the store to buy a dozen lottery tickets.
"If you want to say it, just go and tell the master, what's the matter with pestering the young lady at home all day long?!"
Xiao Cui seemed very dissatisfied.
Ruby didn't speak.
"Isn't Lord Situ not at home lately......"
The star-eyed boy took two steps back, and when he was about to make persistent efforts with a smile on his face, he turned around, but just saw Xia Yejin standing behind the rockery with a pestle.
This frightening was really not light, and he almost fell with his left foot and his right foot. Even if he barely stabilized in the end, his face was still shocked.
"Why are you here?!"
You can be here, why can't I be here?
Xia Yejin didn't bother to pay attention to him, but when he shouted like this, it was no surprise that he succeeded in attracting Hongyu's attention.
"...... you?"
“…… Back to Miss Situ, I am a distant cousin of the Chen family, who followed Chen Jing to the house to deliver goods, and I was going to go to the flower hall, but I got lost in this backyard. Before the other party's question came out, Xia Yejin hurriedly reported to her home with a big smile.
Hongyu had already recognized her as the one who didn't sell foxes yesterday, and heard her say that she was from the Chen family, so she didn't ask much, and casually pointed to a stone bridge not far away, and said that the bridge turned a corner and was the flower hall.
Xia Yejin hurriedly thanked and left as if she had received amnesty.
When I arrived at the flower hall, I didn't see Chen Jing.
Isn't it going to be the first to go?
As soon as this idea popped up, she immediately denied it, Chen Jing is not such a reckless person, even if there is an urgent matter and it is too late to wait for her to come back, at least he will leave a message, but now there is no trace at all, and the tea on the low table is still steaming, could it be that he also went out for a walk?
While pondering, there was suddenly a faint sound of music, melodious and low, tactful and beautiful, and it was very good.
Xia Yejin was originally music blind, but she didn't know why she was moved by this music today, and she was curious for a while, so she wanted to follow the music to find out.
Went around and around a few times.
For the first time, she found that there were so many corridors in the mansion of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, so many that her head was dizzy when she walked. Just when she was about to collapse and lose her patience, a side courtyard appeared in front of her.
The doors of the courtyard were wide open.
Xia Yejin involuntarily walked in.
The brocade flowers in the courtyard are clustered, and several peach blossoms are blooming luxuriantly, stacked together, and the pink makes people can't take their eyes off. The music that was originally faint became clear at this moment.
The person under the eaves lowered his head and stroked the qin, as if he didn't notice Xia Yejin's arrival, the jade hand beat softly on the strings, wearing a moon-white wide-sleeved robe, his face was blurred, but he couldn't say that he was noble and handsome.
Xia Yejin stood in place, listening intently. The soft music reminded her of many old things in the past, but she couldn't say what they were, and there was only one thought in her heart, and that was to listen.
After standing for a while, she suddenly felt soreness in her legs, so she found a place to sit down in the court, and just caught a glimpse of the bright red cherries placed on the jade plate on the stone table next to her, and she couldn't help but reach out and take one for a while, and was just about to send it to her mouth, but the hand holding the cherry was suddenly held-
"Wake up!"
Someone shouted in his ear.
The good mood was disturbed, and Xia Yejin felt very impatient. Just as he was about to say goodbye, the beautiful scenery in front of him and the sound of the piano disappeared in an instant, replaced by craggy cliffs and wild sand. There was a pain between her fingers, and blood suddenly oozed, and her heart sank, and she suddenly woke up, but unfortunately this waking time came too late, and the next second she saw the sharp cliff pressing directly down on her.
She wanted to run, but was saddened to find that her feet seemed to be frozen, and she couldn't move at all. In a hurry, she suddenly remembered that there was a yellow charm in her arms, and she was about to take it out to try her luck, when a figure flashed in front of her.
A certain sword-eyed starry face was infinitely magnified in front of him, "Don't move, it's all an illusion!" ”
Xia Yejin knew that she was at a loss, so she stood still obediently.
But when I saw that the cliff was about to press me, I thought about it and simply closed my eyes. But in the next second, she suddenly opened her eyes and scolded in her heart, why did she forget, what if the Cheng Biting Jin in front of her was also an illusion?
But as it turned out, she guessed wrong.
The star-eyed boy was really not a hallucination, I saw a yellow talisman between his fingers, and there were words in his mouth, and then he threw it forward quickly, and the next moment the scene in front of him began to collapse, falling apart, and in the end, the cliff fell and the yellow sand dissipated. All that remained was clear skies and yellow ashes.
"Still holding it?"
It wasn't until this slightly smiling voice sounded that Xia Yejin completely recovered from the unpredictable illusion just now, and when he saw the artifact in his hand clearly, he was so frightened that he almost fainted.
She was standing by the well in the backyard, holding a pair of scissors that came from nowhere in her right hand, daring to love that this was the cherry in the illusion just now, if Cheng Yanjin didn't stop it in time, she was afraid that she would stab herself to death directly.
"Hey, Cheng Biting Jin, thank you."
"What do you call me?"
Cheng ...... Oh, by the way, and haven't asked for a name? ”
The star-eyed boy laughed, the sky was cloudless, the warm sun was shining, and the gloom just now seemed to be a dream, "Pay Qingzhu in the next place." ”
"Oh, I'm glad to be happy, my name is Xia Yejin."
Xia Yejin replied casually. But thinking about what happened just now, Lang Lang can still perform such a play in the daytime, is it really as Fu Qingzhu said in front of him, Sima Mansion is not clean?
