Chapter 13: The Matchmaker

What appeared in front of Bai Mingqiu was a tall and beautiful girl.

Dressed in a dark green cheongsam and waist-length bright red hair, Bai Mingqiu had the illusion of seeing a rainbow for a moment.

This girl's height is already approaching Bai Mingqiu, plus she is wearing a cheongsam, it is conceivable that she must have a pair of beautiful legs, Bai Mingqiu subconsciously glanced down, but unfortunately, the girl wore a pair of white shirts.

The girl was staring at Bai Mingqiu with a frightened expression, especially staring at his hands, Bai Mingqiu realized that he was still carrying something in his hand, and he used his strength to straighten the fallen something.

"Thank you!"

The girl blinked her aqua blue eyes and stared at Bai Mingqiu excitedly.

"Thank you so much! If these things fall to the ground, I... I! ”

Although the girl's voice was urgent, she could hear a soft and rigid voice, giving people a different feeling, and Bai Mingqiu felt that the feeling she felt when she spoke was very familiar.

Bai Mingqiu smiled: "It's a gesture." ”

Before he could see what was falling towards her, he looked at it and it turned out to be a wheelbarrow. There was a tall box on the cart, and it was so cold that there must have been a lot of ice in it. Just now, this box fell down and was about to smash Bai Mingqiu, it is estimated that the girl accidentally shook her hands.

"No, no, no, you're really kind to me, really." The girl's face palpitated, "If you dodged instead of catching it just now, I'd really be finished..."

She swallowed her saliva and shuddered, probably thinking of some bad memories.

Bai Mingqiu stabilized the box a little and said, "Okay, this young lady, just remember to be careful when you push." ”

When he encountered a trivial matter on the road, he took it with him, but Bai Mingqiu didn't pay attention to it, so he turned around and left.

"Hey! You! Wait a minute! ”

Bai Mingqiu heard the girl call him, turned around and said, "Is there anything else?" ”

"As the saying goes, the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, my name is Hong Meiling, Engong, please tell me your name, and you will repay it in the future."

What about the guy with one board and one eye.

Bai Mingqiu said with a smile: "For me, this matter is not as strict as kindness, so there is no need to repay the favor or anything." But it doesn't hurt to tell you by name, my name is Bai Mingqiu, white white, Mingxiao Ming, autumn autumn. ”

"In the next red beautiful bell, red red, beautiful beauty, bell of the bell."

The girl straightened her little green hat, and the five-pointed star with the word "dragon" written on the brim of the hat was very conspicuous.

"Miss Red... Huh? ”

"Bai Engong... Well? ”

The two of them were surprised at the same time: "You/You are from the Celestial Empire?!" ”

Bai Mingqiu was still wondering how the surname "Hongmei" could be pronounced so strangely, and Hong Meiling was also wondering that she hadn't seen the surname "Bai Ming" just now, and as she read it, both of them felt wrong.

It's no wonder that I always felt that the voice of Hong Meiling was very familiar just now, and it turned out that when I spoke Japanese, there were some Chinese pronunciation methods. There is also the "grace of dripping water in return" and the title of Engong in the words just now, which should have been thought of a long time ago.

Bai Mingqiu couldn't hide the happiness in his heart, and laughed loudly, Hong Meiling was stunned, and then laughed out loud, and the two of them just stood on the street, regardless of the eyes of passers-by, laughing to their heart's content.

"Engong, Engong, it turned out to be from the Celestial Empire...!"

Hong Meiling probably hasn't spoken Chinese for a long time, and her mouth is a little jerky. Her accent is very old, not the language used in the Celestial Empire now, and she has probably been in Gensokyo for many years.

Bai Mingqiu changed his accent slightly, and said with a smile: "The red girl turned out to be also from the Celestial Empire, haha, okay!" What is this called, this is called a long drought and nectar, and a foreign country meets an old acquaintance. ”

After being alone for many years, he met very few people from the Celestial Empire, and he basically couldn't see the people of the Celestial Empire in Gensokyo, originally Bai Mingqiu thought that he would never meet the people of the Celestial Empire in the future, but today he happened to meet Hong Misuzu on the way of Zhongzhong, which really surprised him.

Hong Meiling naturally has the same mentality, she has not seen a person from the Celestial Empire in Gensokyo for so long, and she is almost unable to speak her native language, she met Bai Mingqiu today, and he also helped him a lot, and she couldn't help but be happy in her heart.

"Eun Gong, Misuzu was going to find a place to eat, but she happened to meet Eun Gong, since Eun Gong said not to reciprocate, then at least let Misuzu entertain Eun Gong!"

Misuzu's aqua blue eyes stared at Bai Mingqiu burningly.

Bai Mingqiu couldn't resist Hong Meiling's enthusiasm, and he also wanted to chat with the compatriots in front of him, so he smiled and said: "Okay, the first time I came to Zhongdao today, I bothered the red girl to lead the way." ”

"Eun Gong, please come with me."

Hong Meiling was very happy, pushed the trolley, shook the braids on the sideburns, and was full of energy.

――――――――

The two found an izakaya with a good business on the middle road, left the cart in the backyard of the izakaya, sat opposite each other, ordered a few side dishes, and asked for two pots of wine.

Hong Meiling got up and poured a cup for Bai Mingqiu, poured herself another glass, and saluted, "Engong, please." ”

"Red girl doesn't have to be so polite." Bai Mingqiu said with a smile.

Misuzu held the wine glass: "Engong, you don't need to call me a red girl, you can just call me Misuzu." ”

Bai Mingqiu thought for a while and said with a smile: "It's not bad, but in this case, Misuzu, don't call me Engong, you can call me whatever you want." ”

"You are kind to me, how can I not call you a kind father?"

Bai Mingqiu saw that Hong Meiling insisted, so he didn't say anything, raised his glass, and drank with Hong Meiling.

"Red Misuzu..."

"Engong, what's wrong?" Seeing Bai Mingqiu chanting her name, Hong Meiling asked.

Bai Mingqiu thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Oh, Misuzu, I remembered, I heard about you when I was in the human world." ”

"Oh?" Misuzu was curious, "I do go to people from time to time and have some communication with humans, maybe it's a rumor left at that time." Eun-gong, what have you heard? ”

"Probably "the door of the Red Devil Pavilion", "a very strong monster", "a martial arts master", "gentle personality, will not take the initiative to hurt people", "sometimes I will fight with humans or teach humans a few hands", "know tai chi" and so on. Bai Mingqiu remembered what the old man of Shanlan Temple had mentioned to him.

"Hey, hey." Misuzu touched her head embarrassedly, "It's all something that isn't worth mentioning." ”

"Misuzu: You used to teach a human named Yamato Sugida to do tai chi, right? It's just a very strong man, who looks like he's forty years old, but actually in his twenties. ”

Hong Meiling thought for a while, nodded and said, "Well, I have the impression that his skills are already quite good among humans." At that time, he told me that this set of boxing was not suitable for him to practice, and later it seemed that he had taught it to an old man. ”

"Haha, this old man has a good relationship with me, because he is diligent in practicing this set of boxing, and his body is very tough, and he also mentioned you to me and said that he would like to thank you." Bai Mingqiu thought of the spirited Lao Shan Lan Temple and said.

Misuzu waved her hand: "Being able to keep practicing is the old man's own perseverance, and it has nothing to do with me." ”

Bai Mingqiu smiled warmly and toasted Hong Meiling.

"I've been in Gensokyo for a long time."

"yes." Red Misuzu nodded, "I've been working as a doorman in the Red Devil Pavilion." It's been a long time since I followed the eldest lady into Gensokyo. Today, because the eldest lady wants to drink red wine and asks me to get some ice, I didn't come here at the gate. The land of hell was colder, so I got a lot of ice cubes and brought the wine cold to take home. ”

She patted her chest and sighed: "Thinking about what to eat for lunch, I was stunned, and the car collapsed, if there was no help from the eldest lady, the eldest lady's more than a dozen bottles of precious red wine would have to be smashed, and the eldest lady was angry, I don't know how to be punished when I go back..."

Hong Meiling is in good shape, her chest is full of Yingying, and the scenery is excellent when she moves slightly, Bai Mingqiu consciously avoided her eyes a little.

"What about Eun Gong?"

After talking about her own business, Hong Misuzu became curious about her benefactor compatriots who helped her.

"My words..."

Bai Mingqiu sorted out his thoughts and probably talked about his own things.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Although the shemales are different, they were all raised by the water and soil of the Celestial Empire, so they are naturally compatriots.

Many of Misuzu's spell cards are named after rainbows, so they are rainbow shadows.

I'm asking for tickets every day!
