Chapter 131: Another Year of Going Round and Round
Ning Chu's eyes lit up, "Please also ask your mother-in-law to make it clear!" ”
Meng Po glanced at her, let go of her hand, and asked, "Have you ever heard the story of black and white impermanence?" ”
Ning Chu was slightly stunned for a moment, and then seemed to think of something, "Yes, what does mother-in-law mean?" ”
"Yes, if you want to stay, you have to obey me for five hundred years, you do things for me, and during this time, without my permission, you will stay in the underworld and help me collect the souls of the dead. When the time comes, I will let you go to the world. ”
Ning Chu's eyes lit up, a smile appeared on her face for the first time in a long time, and she lowered her body at Meng Po with a little excitement, "Granny Xie." ”
Seeing her like this, Meng Po also had a smile in her eyes, but still said, "Don't be happy too early, I haven't finished speaking, you can only stay in the world for a hundred days." You're already dead, that's the limit. ”
Meng Po looked at Ning Chu with a gloomy face for a moment, and then said, "When the time comes, come back." ”
The world, Yangzhou City. Peach forest in the east of the city.
Yangzhou City is rich and well-off, except for the endless stream of businessmen and dignitaries living here, there are outsiders from all over the world who come here all the year round.
Ning Chu came to Yangzhou City for the first time for so long, and she followed the impression in her memory along the way to find the peach forest in the east of the city. After walking in the peach forest for a long time, I saw the sleeping person on the largest peach tree.
Nian Yan is no longer the appearance she remembers, no longer the little Taoist priest with a shy smile in a mountain blue robe, but the peach-colored clothes in front of her. A man with merry eyebrows.
Ning Chu looked at him blankly, a little distracted, and when he looked back, he was already like dust.
The Si people are still there, but they are no longer what they used to be.
Ning Chu looked at him from a distance, and suddenly didn't dare to appear in front of him for a while, and since Tao Yao had forgotten her, then he should not bother him anymore as he said at the beginning.
But Ning Chu couldn't let go of it, and the affection in her eyes was the catastrophe of her life.
Ning Chu looked at him and looked at him all afternoon. Bring twilight near. Daylight slanted westward. The man sleeping on the peach branch woke up slowly.
Ning Chu was hiding on the side and had already seen his mind, but when he saw Tao Yao waking up, he was startled, and his breath accidentally leaked for fear of shooting. The sleeve of the shirt accidentally scratched the branch. Ning Chu hurriedly stabilized his figure. I'm afraid that Tao Yao will see the clue.
She was originally in the form of a soul to find a peach, so she shouldn't have been able to see her, but she could still have an impact on the things around her. In other words, her movements are likely to shake the branches that were originally windless.
Tao Yao just woke up, and suddenly saw a tree on the opposite side shake a little, Tao Yao squinted his eyes, there is no wind at this time, why does the tree shake?
He stared at the tree for a while, and when it didn't move, he didn't pay any more attention.
Tao Yao half-leaned on the peach tree behind her, squinted her eyes for a while, and then turned over and jumped down from the tree, her peach-colored robe fluttering in the wind, and her black hair was scattered as in the past, slightly raised in the wind.
Tao Yao fell to the ground, straightened his clothes, and walked towards the city with his hands behind his back.
It wasn't until she watched Tao Yao's back walk a distance that Ning Chu breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly relaxed, Fang Cai was really scared to death, she thought she was going to be discovered so soon.
Ning Chu calmed his breath, raised his eyes and saw that Tao Yao seemed to be out of sight, so he hurriedly trotted all the way to follow.
Tao Yao's red clothes looked very recognizable at this time, Ning Chu easily saw Tao Yao's figure among the passers-by, her eyes stared at Tao Yao tightly, for fear that she would not be able to find him if she was stunned.
On the other hand, Tao Yao is much more leisurely, he slowly paced on the streets and alleys of Yangzhou City, and there seemed to be no destination, just strolling, passing through the lively and noisy alleys, and walking through the white embankment full of willows.
Ning Chu followed him for a night, and Tao Yao finally stopped in front of a restaurant. Tao Yao's footsteps paused, and then he raised his feet and walked in.
As soon as he entered, he heard someone greet him, "Yo, guest officer, you are here, today is a little later than usual." Hurry inside please! ”
Ning Chu thought, it turned out that he was a frequent visitor here, Ning Chu looked up at the sign of the restaurant, this restaurant looked quite gorgeous, the vermilion lacquer plaque, with a few big characters written on it, "Tianxiang Building." ”
Ning Chu retracted his gaze and followed.
Tao Yao was led straight to the second floor, and the shopkeeper took him through the lively crowd, and came directly to a position by the window facing the street to sit down, and the little two politely wiped the table and chair for him, and then took a teacup and poured tea, "This son, is it still the same as usual today?" ”
Tao Yao glanced at Xiao Er, claiming to be charming in his eyebrows, he smiled at Xiao Er, his tone was refreshing, "Exactly, Xiao Er, remember to bring me a few pots of good wine!" ”
The shopkeeper smiled instantly, and responded in a loud voice, "Okay, you wait." This is for you! ”
After Xiao Er went down, Tao Yao casually looked at the crowd downstairs outside the window, her eyes seemed to fall on every passer-by, and from time to time she took a sip of the hot car at hand, looking very comfortable.
Ning Chu looked at him like this, and suddenly there was a little silence, not knowing whether his decision was right or wrong, after all, it seemed that he was living a good life now, and compared to the life before when everything was restricted, Nian Yan must also prefer the current day.
Ning Chu looked at Tao Yao in a daze, looking at the world with a leisurely look, his expression was lazy, and there was a smile between his eyebrows, and he couldn't take his eyes off for a while.
It wasn't until Xiao Er brought the wine and food ordered by Tao Yao to the table that Ning Chu was suddenly awakened.
Ning Chu silently glanced at the dishes ordered by Tao Yao, and immediately thought in his heart that Tao Yao's life this time must be many times better than before, if nothing else, just because the table in front of him was really good
Ning Chu couldn't help twitching the corners of his eyes, this shouldn't be the amount that one person eats at all. The wooden table in front of Tao Yao was already full of all kinds of delicacies, steaming, cooking, and nourishment, and there was also good wine on the table that he and the store had specially wanted.
No wonder the shopkeeper saw him so polite, this look is the style of a generous person.
Tao Yao saw that the dishes were ready, and he didn't say much, he reached out and poured wine into his cup, and he couldn't wait to put it to his lips and sniff it, and then took a sip into his throat, and then half-squinted his eyes and tasted the taste of wine.
Tao Yao suddenly laughed, and said to herself, "The wine in this world is really not as good as the ones you brew." Tao Yao's face was regretful, as if she was reminiscing about something, "Okay, let's make do with it." ”
After that, Tao Yao began to slowly eat the wine in front of her, little by little.
Ning Chu saw that he was really a person, his heart moved slightly, and he suddenly had an idea. She thought about it, transformed into the appearance of an ordinary woman, casually stopped a guy and asked for a wine glass, and walked in the direction of Tao Yao.
Tao Yao raised her eyes, looked at the woman who suddenly came out of nowhere, and was silent and did not speak.
Ning Chu sat down in front of Tao Yao, filled himself with wine with a natural expression, poured another glass for Tao Yao, and then said, "Isn't it boring for Childe to drink alone?" (To be continued.) )
