8. Xuanmo Jade (II)
Yue looked at the high bluestone wall in the distance, and there was a row of low slaughter. There were hardly any soldiers patrolling the walls, and only a few birds could occasionally be seen chirping by.
It's a little quiet......
When Yue entered Ocean City, the constant flow of people and noisy chatter intersected like the roar of a strange beast, which was already indistinguishable. Not to mention the hawkers everywhere, the propped up cloth canopy, and the restaurant and teahouse, each one is more lively than the other. All kinds of people, each with its own unique shop, a piece of the same blue sky.
"That's what it is...... Attic?good...... Interesting. In Yue's memory, this was the first time he had seen so many wooden pavilions, without elevated planks, directly spread on the ground. The first "building" that Yue saw was Yang Yang's seaside wooden house, which was unusual because of the terrain and other houses. But Yue didn't know so much, even after Yang Yang's description, the first time he saw so many novel things, Yue stood directly in front of the city gate.
Many passers-by would casually glance at the stake-like man, but most of them were not surprised that he had never seen the world, but were attracted by the man himself, who was dressed in sackcloth but was as white as jade, and had an extraordinary demeanor.
"Ahem......" Yue coughed dryly, he thought it was necessary to wear a mask to hide his true face. He didn't like the look of being watched at all, especially because he was interested in the new sight and stood there.
Yue took out a piece of cloth from his waist bag, the marks of rubbing on the smooth surface were very obvious, and the map depicted was not very clear.
This......
Yue put away the map, looking confused. With a headache, he had to ask for directions.
"May I ask where is the Sympathy Pavilion?" Yue deliberately found an old man with white hair and withered skin, who looked comfortable in a clean cloth robe.
"What, little baby, are you going to the Rain Pavilion? Buy weapons, don't go there, it's too expensive. It's not something you can spend!" The old man glanced up and down for a moment, squinting his eyes earnestly as he looked, and straightened his beard.
"No, I'm going to deliver something. Yue said with a smile, and half-squatted down, in order to maintain the same height as the old man.
"The little doll looks really good, it can't be a girl. The old man looked at the moon and smiled, and the elegant and amiable aura that came to his face made the old man tilt his head and say in a daze.
Seeing the old man's brows furrowed, the wrinkles on his face seemed to reveal suspicion, and Yue's smile directly became stiff. He didn't know how to proceed anymore.
"No, old man, tell me where the Rain Pavilion is first. Yue still smiled at each other, and sure enough, her bright smile attracted a lot of attention.
"What are you doing in the Rain Pavilion?" A woman dressed in light armor and red clothes walked up on the road, holding a long sword with a blooming lotus flower carved on the hilt.
"I ...... Go and deliver something. Yue looked at the bold and atmospheric woman in front of her with her hands on her chest, and her raised face slowly revealed a flush, and replied helplessly.
"You...... Show me something. The woman pointed the hilt of her sword at the moon and motioned for him to look at the pattern.
"Oh, this is the girl from the Rain Court. I'll go first, old man. The old man watched from the sidelines, and when he saw the woman coming, he saw a conspicuous pattern at a glance.
"...... here" Yue took out the letter that Yang Yang handed him over, and then watched the old man walk away in big strides, and the corners of his mouth twitched inadvertently.
"I'll see. The woman quickly took the envelope and opened it.
"This letter should not be for you. Yuekan opened the envelope directly, a little dissatisfied.
"Hmm...... Yang Yang...... For my young lady. I'm Miss's personal bodyguard, and I'm as close as a sibling, so it's okay. The woman put the letter back and said proudly.
"You are Yang Yang's little brother, I am Tang Xuyan, Miss's bodyguard, come with me." Change your clothes first, and let you enter my Mercy Rain Pavilion like this, it is unseemly. Tang Xuyan turned around, led the way in front, and stepped into the wind, without the slightest intention of waiting for the moon.
Younger brother......?
Yue shrugged her shoulders and hurriedly rushed up.
Along the way, the moon looks at new things around the moon, and it seems that starlight can shine in his eyes.
Tang Xuyan, who turned back from time to time, looked at Yue's ridiculous appearance and asked, "What's your name?"
"Month. Yue replied casually. Seeing that Yue didn't look at her, Tang Xuyan pouted and said, "Don't you have a surname?"
"I don't know. Yue still replied.
Tang Xuyan couldn't say anything at this time. As he walked, Tang Xuyan stopped.
"Here it is...... Yes. Tang Xuyan was really about to say something, but he was bumped into his arms by the moon who was looking forward to it, and took a few steps forward.
"You don't look when you walk......" Tang Xuyan was just about to burst into flames, only to see the moon looking down at her, her beautiful face instantly made her anger completely extinguished, and her dark eyes as black as ink were even more fascinating.
"I'm sorry. Yue scratched her head and looked down at Tang Xuyan, who was a head shorter than herself, full of apologies. Yue felt like a fool at this time, and he swore that he would never show such an unseemly appearance after that.
"Go in and make a set of clothes. Tang Xuyan said angrily, leaning on the wooden pillar at the door, and the chivalrous spirit overflowed.
"That's not good, I'm just a messenger, so I don't have to spend so much. Yue stood in front of the threshold and did not take a single step.
"Eh, yes, isn't it just a few spirit stones, why are they so ink. Tang Xuyan looked impatient, waved his sword, and asked Yue to hurry in.
Yue shook his head, although he didn't have much awareness of the spirit stone, but he knew that he owed someone a favor, so he hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, girl." Then he stepped into this store called "Miao Yi Fang".
Tang Xuyan tilted his head, his willow eyebrows were upside down, Fan Dai's light appearance was a little annoyed at this time, and his small mouth was lightly pursed.
After a short time, Yue had already taken out the ink in white clothes, and suddenly she was gentle and elegant, and her handsome face and high body seemed to be a breeze in front of the small shop, without the slightest arrogant appearance, giving people a sense of comfort like a spring breeze.
"Inside, Miss Tang?" Yue bent down slightly, stared at the slightly drunk Tang Xuyan with a sideways face, and whispered in a low voice.
"Huh?!" Tang Xuyan was awakened, suddenly opened his eyes, and saw that the moon was so close to him, and his face was a little more pink.
"Let's go. Yue smiled faintly and put on a fox face mask, covering most of her face. Even if you can only see the lower half of your face, the elegant temperament of the whole body of the moon is even more extraordinary.
"Good. Tang Xuyan walked in front of the moon with broken steps, and asked at the same time, "Does Yang Yang have any other detailed words?"
"No more. By the way, Miss Tang, do you know where to buy the materials for making puppets?" Yue was also observing if there were any shops around him that bought materials for puppets.
"Is Yang Yang going to buy it?" As long as Tang Xuyan talked about Yang Yang, his tone would be inexplicably cold.
"No, I'm going to buy it. Yue looked at the heroic woman in red in front of her, and unconsciously took a few steps back.
Why...... Would I want to stay away from her?
"Buy Xuanmo Jade and Zhentieshi or something?" "Xuanmo Jade?" Yue heard all unfamiliar terms, some of which he couldn't understand, and he didn't have any memory in the first place, so he could only rely on absorbing them.
"Aren't you a puppeteer? Xuanmo jade is a kind of high-grade ink jade, a kind of tougher and more conductive, I don't know very well. Tang Xuyan turned around sensitively, put his hands behind his back, and looked at the fox-faced Yue. She thought that Yue was a puppeteer, but he didn't even know this kind of taste that he knew, and his curiosity beat hard.
"Why do you want these things? You shouldn't be a puppeteer," Tang Xuyan looked curious.
"Xuanmo Jade, Xuanmo Jade, Xuanmo Jade......" Yue repeated silently, ignoring Tang Xuyan again.
In a restaurant not far away, a young man in a purple robe looked down, holding a wine glass in his hand. A pair of eagle eyes glanced coldly on his resolute face, and his unpleasant feelings were written all over his body.
"Young Master, Miss Tang has taken that young man to the Rain Pavilion. A servant walked up to the boy, got down on one knee, and gave his hand to report.
"Xuanmo Jade?" the boy shook his glass and drank it in one gulp.
"Let's go. ”
