Chapter 70: Ambiguous Sexual Orientation
On the clean and distant painting boat, a woman sits by the window, leaning on the carved windowsill and watching the blue water rowing under the boat. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The blue waves under the lake are reflected in the gray-white eyes, invisibly dyed with a fresh and refined green color.
The black hair on her head was only loosely held by an ice-blue step, and the delicate little swallow hanging down on the stepway landed on her round and small earlobe, adding a bit of playfulness in her laziness.
This is Linlan Lake, located in the Bi Mall, one of the twelve cities in Central Continent, and the reason why Yan Jiu is here is because here, there is going to be a grand event - the ghost market.
Although Linlan Lake is called a lake, it is majestic and unbounded, and it looks as magnificent as the sea, and Yan Jiu has been cowering on this painting boat for three days.
Yes, "Turtle Shrinkage", although Yan Jiu didn't want to compare himself to a creature like "Wang Ba", but this was the case.
The twelve cities of Zhongzhou are divided into three cities, four cities, and five cities, and the Burning City where Yan Jiu lived before belongs to one of the four cities, and the place where Yan Jiu is now is Bi Mall, one of the three cities.
A bustling town means a lot of people, and a lot of people means you're more likely to meet someone you know.
Yan Jiu glanced behind him, the three of them were chatting very happily, if you ignore the monk in the middle who was full of frost, a cold face, and rejected people.
Yan Jiu didn't know what to say, his own children grew up and began to attract the opposite sex, which was a happy thing, but the child's sexual orientation seemed to be a little vague......
"Senior Brother Qingyan, I heard that there is a secret realm in the Lin Heaven Realm, is there a lot of thrills inside?"
A female cultivator who was as cute as a little white rabbit, opened her big watery eyes, and asked Qing Yan a little nervously, and the palm she held nervously looked even more nervous than Qing Yan.
"Cut", another female cultivator with a proud temperament and a bit of a "royal sister", sneered, walked to Qing Yan's side, and a pair of "white rabbits" squeezed directly on Qing Yan's arm.
"How could Qing Yan be afraid of that, do you think the name of the disciple of the head of the sect is false?" As he spoke, he looked at Qing Yan with a familiar face, "Yes, Qing Yan." ”
The little white rabbit nun looked like she was wronged and cried, but she couldn't help herself.
But instead of stepping forward to comfort Qing Yan on the side, the air pressure on his face was lower.
For a while, there was some unspeakable embarrassment among several people.
Qingwu on the side directly picked up a teacup, stuffed it into Qing Yan's hand, and poured tea for Qing Yan with a low posture while relieving the siege for the two female cultivators.
"Senior Brother Qingyan is not afraid of that, the junior brother is not only dissatisfied with the foundation building and comprehended the way of the sword, but also got the master's personal transmission, even if it is dangerous in the Lin Heavenly Realm, it is just a light wind and rain for the junior brother."
When Qing Yan heard this, the frost on his face became more and more serious, and he wanted to get up and leave here directly, but Qing Wu on the side held down his arm and pressed him back to the seat.
Qingwu lay in Qingyan's ear and whispered, which made Qingyan's face look much better, and he took a small sip of the teacup in his hand.
Look! Look! This is where Yan Jiu worries, a soft and cute little bird is still a person, and a royal sister with a hot and proud body, all of them can't impress Qing Yan.
On the contrary, it was the clear wu, but a few whispers turned the ice into spring water.
This made Yan Jiuda, who was an "elder", worried.
Yan Jiu, who incarnated as the "evil mother-in-law", was picky about Qingwu for a while, what do you say about Qingwu, you have to be in shape...... Well, broad shoulders and narrow hips, slender body or something, barely qualified.
Look at that look again...... The sword eyebrows are in the sideburns, the black crow feathers are in the back of the head, and a pair of eyes are very sharp when they are not smiling, if they laugh lightly, they seem to be a little bad, taking advantage of the high bridge of the nose...... Well, this face barely passes.
Look at Qingwu's cultivation again, uh...... Qingwu is a real person from Jindan.
What to do? Thinking about it this way, I also think that Qingyan and Qingwu are a perfect match! It's still a bamboo horse, a bamboo horse, a very cute setting of senior brothers and younger brothers.
So Eleven, are you completely on the "detour" because of the shadow of your childhood?
"Ah Jiu, Ah Jiu", Qing Yan looked at Yan Jiu, who was distracted, and called softly.
Being called by Qing Yan, Yan Jiu immediately came back to his senses, "Why are you here, they ......" Yan Jiu looked behind Qing Yan, but he didn't know when the three people left.
Yan Jiu asked, "When did they leave?" ”
"Just when Ah Jiu was distracted, what was Ah Jiu thinking, so engrossed?"
"Of course I miss you...... Yan Jiu lowered his head weakly, secretly saying in his heart that it was so dangerous, and he almost said it.
"Oh? Thinking about me, what is Ah Jiu thinking about me? ”
Of course, it's your life's work! Yan Jiu said in his heart, but this was not the case on his lips.
"I'm wondering, depending on how lucky you are, you'll find something good in this ghost market."
As soon as Qing Yan heard it, he knew that what Yan Jiu said was insincere, but Qing Yan was not in a hurry.
"The ghost market will only start tomorrow night, it's too early to think about this, why don't Ah Jiu think about it, wait where we are going."
"I haven't been to Bi Mall, so why don't you take a look everywhere."
At this time, the painting boat had already docked on the shore, and the streets were full of vendors, but more were monks in cloaks and hurried shapes.
There are also monks who hang out like Yan Jiu and Qing Yan, but there are not too many.
As soon as Yan Jiu and Qing Yan painted the boat, they immediately became the focus of the street.
Although most of the monks are good-looking, there are not many people who are as outstanding as Qing Yan, let alone Yan Jiu.
Qing Yan didn't feel uncomfortable about this, as a disciple of Kunlun, he was used to it, no, it was not so much a habit, but that he didn't care.
On the contrary, Yan Jiu on the side was a little uncomfortable, which felt even stranger than having rice on his face and wearing a sweater backwards.
"Qingyan, don't you think we should wear a mask or something?" Yan Jiu's heartfelt proposal arrived.
"Doesn't Ah Jiu think that would be more strange?" Qing Yan said, following Yan Jiu's gaze and looking around, the more he looked at it, the tighter his brows wrinkled.
The eyes of the monks around him were clearly towards Yan Jiu, and that look made Qing Yan more and more unhappy.
"Actually, it's not bad to wear a mask." After that, Qing Yan took out the golden mask obtained from the Desire Altar and directly leaned over to put it on Yan Jiu.
Qing Yan's arm half-hugged Yan Jiu, and the long hair scattered on Yan Jiu's sideburns was followed behind Yan Jiu's ears, and finally the golden mask was carefully covered on Yan Jiu's face.
"Don't you say it's weird to wear a mask? Why do you want to wear it for me? Regarding Qing Yan's actions, Yan Jiu had a feeling that the child was older and couldn't figure it out.
"Because I regretted it," Qing Yan said with a frank face, and the breath he exhaled seemed to be able to blow through the mask onto Yan Jiu's face.
Feed! Don't say it's so simple to regret it! Also, what do you regret?
As soon as the mask touched his face, it was as comfortable as touching a refreshing spring, and when he put the mask on, Qing Yan took a step back and looked at Yan Jiulai.
The simple golden mask blocked most of Yan Jiu's face, revealing only the full diamond-shaped cherry lips and small and delicate chin.
The scarlet flower on the forehead is like a fairy in the dark night secretly blooming, revealing its own elegance, Yan Jiu wearing it not only does not seem abrupt, but unexpectedly complements each other.
Obviously, he put it on himself, but looking at Yan Jiu like this, he just wanted to take off this mask fiercely, and Qing Yan lowered his eyes to the side to cover the emotions in his eyes.
Yan Jiu put on the mask, obviously it really existed, but he didn't feel a trace of abnormality.
As soon as Yan Jiu's face was covered, although there was still a gaze, it was much less than before.
There were people coming and going on the long street, but Qing Yan stopped in front of a small stall, which was a stall of a dough kneader, and there were many vivid noodles and all kinds of monsters on the stall.
Seeing this, Yan Jiu couldn't help but think of the past, she looked at Qing Yan with a smile, "Qing Yan wants to give me another noodle person?" ”
"Ah Jiu remembers?"
"Of course." Yan Jiu said that, he actually took out a noodle man from the storage bag, and saw that the face had his hair combed in a bun and was wearing a blue robe, which was exactly what Qing Yan looked like when he was a child.
Yan Jiu took the noodle man and pretended to be a child's voice and spoke in a strange voice, "Hello, I'm Yan Shiyi, are you the Qing Yan when you grow up?" Look up for a long time~"
Seeing this, Qing Yan chuckled, and at that moment it was as clear and handsome as the distant peaks of the mountains after the light rain, "Ah Jiu, I have grown up." ’”
"I know," Yan Jiu put the noodle man on the side of Qing Yan's face and compared, "Time flies so fast, you are very different from before." ”
"I think I'm still the same person."
Qing Yan said, took a ball of colored dough, put it in his hand and kneaded it.
Seeing this, Yan Jiu also took a ball of noodles and put it in his hand and pinched it for a while, and the two of them were immersed in an unexpected tranquility.
Now is a good time to ask, Yan Jiu pretended to be chatting and asked, "Qing Yan, what do you think of the two female cultivators who walked with Qing Wu?" ”
Yan Jiu seemed to be seriously pinching the dough in her hand, but in fact, her ears had already been erected, she really wanted to know Qing Yan's sexual orientation!
"I don't know."
"I don't know!"
Yan Jiu's heart was full of alarm bells, but he asked with a casual look, "Why don't you know?" ”
"Because I didn't pay attention at all." Qing Yan handed a half-pinched noodle man to Yan Jiu, "Ah Jiu thinks it's good to pinch clothes like this?" ”
"It's good," Yan Jiu returned absentmindedly, you didn't even pay attention to the two beautiful beauties! Please, can you be a little straight man conscious!
Yan Jiu's words changed sharply, and then asked, "What does Qing Yan think of Senior Brother Qing Wu?" ”
Now even Qing Yan didn't taste right, why did Yan Jiu have this question, is this what Yan Jiu thought before?
Could it be ......
Thinking of this, Qing Yan couldn't help but pause, and he settled down and returned, "Senior Brother Qing Yan is a very good monk, and he was asked to help find out the news of Ah Jiu before. ”
Really!
Yan Jiu suddenly had a feeling that the clouds were opening and the fog was dissipating, the two beauties turned a blind eye, and a hard Qingwu became a very good person!
Therefore, my family eleven has completely embarked on a "detour" road!
Qing Yan asked with a little temptation, "What does Ah Jiu think of Senior Brother Qingwu?" ”
So, is this kind of time for your own children to "come out" in front of their parents finally come?
How should I answer that? Is it a decisive refusal? Or do you agree to it first, and then slowly figure it out?
I have to say that Yan Jiu's previous "evil mother-in-law" was too deep in the play.
However, Yan Jiu breathed a sigh of relief helplessly, even I felt that the two of them were a good match.
"Uh, Qingwu is not bad, not bad, if you like it, if you like it, if you like it......"
Qing Yan looked at the half-pinched noodle man in his hand, and he had already determined seven or eight points in his heart, Yan Jiu really liked Senior Brother Qingwu.
"Senior Uncle Qianyuan is afraid that Senior Brother Qingwu will concentrate too much on cultivating and killing, so he wants to set a Taoist companion for him to restrain his killing heart."
Qing Yan pinched the person in his hand, but secretly looked closely at Yan Jiu on the side, "Those two female cultivators today are the Taoist candidates selected by Senior Uncle Qianyuan for Senior Brother Qingwu. ”
Yan Jiu looked at the sullen (foggy) Qing Yan, so this was blocked by the other party's parents?
"What's this," Yan Jiu explained, "as long as you don't become a Taoist couple, then you still have a chance!" ”
Yan Jiu quietly glanced at Qing Yan, saying this, it should be no problem, right?
Qing Yan didn't say anything more, Yan Jiu thought that Qing Yan was embarrassed, so he simply concentrated on pinching the noodle man in his hand, and just when he pressed his eyes for the noodle man, he suddenly heard a voice coming clearly.
"Today, Duobao Pavilion will hold a "gambling treasure" event, welcome all Taoist friends to patronize. ”
This is just a lively sound, Yan Jiu put his eyes on the noodle in his hand, and then shook it twice in front of Qing Yan's eyes, "Qing Yan, this is you!" ”
I saw that on the slender bamboo stick, I pinched a three-headed doll, with a cold appearance and a long sword, but it was a Q version of the clear inkstone.
Qing Yan stretched out his hand to take the noodle man, put it in front of his eyes, and compared it with the noodle man in his hand.
The three-headed Qing Yan was put together with Yan Jiu, whose face was covered with gold and was wearing a red palace suit, looked so incompatible.
In Yan Jiu's heart, I'm afraid I will always be that child.
Who knew that Qing Yan's appearance had changed in Yan Jiu's eyes, could this be the loss after falling out of love?
"Qing Yan!" Yan Jiu put his arm on Qing Yan's shoulder, looking like a good brother, "Don't think about it!" Let's go to the Treasure Pavilion! ”
Who said it: people are in a happy mood only in two situations, one moment to eat, and the other is to shop!
"It's okay", Qing Yan put down a piece of broken silver, and then put away the two noodles in his hand and put them next to the noodles that Yan Jiu gave him more than years ago.
At this time, Qing Yan's movements paused for a moment.
"What's wrong?" Yan Jiu asked.
"Nothing, just something very important."
Qing Yan withdrew his consciousness, and together with the three faces, there were also carefully carved ice sculptures.
They are dressed differently and of different ages, laughing, standing, bored, or sitting, with different postures, but without exception, they all have a bit of Yan Jiu's appearance.
That was the imaginary appearance of Yan Jiu after Qing Yan left Yan Jiu.
And all this was quietly absorbed by a pair of eyes in the distance.
Qing Yan seemed to feel something, and looked towards the attic not far away, but saw that the bamboo curtain was shaking and empty...... (To be continued.) )
