Chapter 21: The Lights Change

said that when Xuanyuan Qi and others entered the palace, they said that they would be taken to recuperate for a few days, and they didn't know when they would be able to come back.

The housekeeper Liu Chu couldn't help but remember in his heart, and on the second day, he asked Liu Shi to go to the inner room of the Fengju Pavilion to pack a few more clothes, together with the clothes that Mrs. Yan packed out.

In this way, Liu Shi stepped into the Fengju Pavilion again.

Fengju Pavilion, to speak, was originally the residence of Xuanyuan Jue when he used to come to live in King Kang's mansion, and later, Xiaodouding often asked this brother to accompany him, so he simply moved to Fengju Pavilion to live.

And he, too, moved to the outer room of the Wind Ju Pavilion with Xuanyuan Qi.

Although there is a nurse to take care of on weekdays, but the nurse can not follow Xuanyuan Qi everywhere, yes, on the day Xuanyuan Qi caught the week, King Xiankang personally pointed out that Liu Shi, who was only seven years old, to be Xiaodouding's attendant.

He was indeed responsible, and even, on that day, saved Xuanyuan Qi.

"Ahem......"

As soon as he entered the inner room, he was inhaled by Liu Shi because of a little drifting dust. There seemed to be a crack between the lungs, and it was scratched fiercely by the invisible palm made of this wandering dust, although the stinging pain was only fleeting, but the taste was not pleasant.

Walked straight to the camphor wood suitcase on the side of the couch, squatted, opened, rummaged, about a cup of tea, Liu Shi had already packed up a burden, just when he was about to turn around and leave, under the bed, a corner of Hunan color was revealed.

In order to know what Xuanyuan was hiding from him, he stretched out his right hand and poked into this corner.

The things were taken out of the bed, and it looked like they had been forgotten for some time. Liu Shi covered his mouth and shook the dust on the object, he could probably see that it was a gauze lamp. However, in his memory, Xuanyuan Qi never bought it back from the North Street Market.

Except for the Lantern Festival, the day he fell ill.

Liu Shi's right palm stroked the surface of the gauze lamp, and his movements were extremely gentle, for fear that if he accidentally used too much force, the gauze lamp would be destroyed on his hand.

The dust is gone, and the original appearance of the yarn lamp is also revealed, and on all sides, the auspicious clouds and cranes are the same.

"Hiss......" When Liu Shi's right fingertips stroked the eyes of a crane, he felt a tingling pain for no reason, as if he had been accidentally crossed by a bunch of thorns, and then, a drop of dark red, like a bit of ink falling on the tip of the pen, was impartial, and it happened to fall on the top of the crane.

In a moment, this dark red did not continue to permeate and spread, but dyed the top of the crane quite evenly. Like an unexpected finishing touch, this crane became real, and in Liu Shi's eyes, it seemed that the crane was about to fly out of this lamp in the next moment.

"It's strange, it seems that we still have to go with Ah He to find Ah Jin first."

Liu Shi muttered, while also standing up, thinking about it, he put the yarn lamp in his hand into the prepared baggage, without further ado, he wanted to leave immediately.

About an hour later, Liu Shi and the young man in a white shirt next to him quietly walked out of King Kang's mansion through the back door, one of them was holding a burden in his hand, but the burden in Liu Shi's hand looked bigger.

The two of them specially chose a remote alley with few people, although it takes more than half an hour to walk through the cyclamen from here, but this is a very safe road.

Along the way, the young man in a white shirt looked very strange, and from time to time, he always had to shrug his shoulders. This abnormality was naturally seen by Liu Shi. Immediately, he stopped, looked back, and glanced at the young man behind him, his hair, neatly tied to the top of his head by a smoke-colored headband, and the rest neatly combed into a ponytail and thrown behind his head.

"Ha, it's the first time you've been dressed up like this, think about it, are you used to it?"

Liu Shi chuckled, but he thought that he had combed Xu He's hair well, you know, he had worked hard to make Xu He's wild and uninhibited curly hair as obedient as it was now.

"It's okay, let's go quickly, the others are still waiting for us in the cyclamen."

has always been a man of few words, and Xu He naturally will not bother to speak at this time just because of this hair.

The steps under the feet of the two of them, after this simple teasing of cause and effect, tacitly accelerated, although it was still early now, but the two of them, this is not just as simple as sending a burden.

On the other hand, cyclamen, as usual, is staggered back and forth, with an endless stream of guests coming in and out, sometimes the same face, you can always see it three or four times a day, but the guests who come with it are different every time. If these new customers come back, they are regulars.

"Two masters, please, old place, at the end of the left turn on the second floor, between Mei."

A young man dressed in aqua green satin saw two young men approaching with their burdens and standing out among the guests, and immediately stepped forward and led them up a staircase.

"Huh?"

In Mei's room, after hearing the sound of fragmented footsteps coming from the corridor outside the door, the young man who was lying on a reclining chair with Erlang's legs crossed in boredom opened his eyes.

Then, the young man took down the fan covering his face again, and put the fan away with a "snap", the head of the fan fell into the palm of his left hand, and the handle of the fan was still firmly held by his right hand.

"Haaah......" Unabashedly, and didn't care if someone looked at it, Xie Jin yawned blatantly and exaggeratedly as he got up.

The old man in the family was really good, knowing what he had done, but he still kept saying that he was late when he came back, and he didn't know where to go to play tricks, so he had to copy the "Analects" for nearly a night.

Before the sleepiness disappeared, Xie Jin raised his left palm again, rubbed his two sour eyes back and forth, and barely cheered up his spirits to look at the two people who opened the door and came in.

As soon as the three of them saw each other, they didn't need to greet each other, and they all sat down directly, and the two of them also put the two burdens in their hands, one big and one small, on the table and pushed them to Xie Jin.

And Xie Jin knocked the fan in his hand in the palm of his hand, only to see him look at the small burden on the left and the big burden on the right. In the end, the sight settled on the big baggage.

"Huh?! I said, Ah Shi, are you worried that your prince has no clothes to wear in the palace? Packing up such a big burden, is it possible, does he still want to stay in the palace for the winter? ”

As if disgusted, Xie Jin poked the big burden in front of him with a fan. But after this blow, he felt that the hand did not seem to be right, and knocked on the top of the baggage with a fan.

"Da, da." Two crisp sounds, not the expected muffled sounds.

Without waiting for Liu Shi's words, Xie Jin made the first move and spread out the burden. The yarn lamp was picked up by him.

After looking at it and turning it around in his hand, Xie Jin put the lamp on the table again. The eyes were always aimed at the crane whose top was stained red by Liu Shi's blood.

"Interesting, interesting, in my opinion, this is done...... It's a bit of a look...... Hiss! Where the hell did this lamp come from?! ”

With a casual touch of curiosity when playing, Xie Jin's left index finger also suffered the same as Liu Shi. The same drop of crimson, dyed red, is the top of another crane.

"Huh?"

Seeing the strange faces of the two friends, Xu He couldn't help but touch the crane on the gauze lamp with his hand, and the result was the same.

Now, on all sides of this lamp, there are three cranes with red tops.

"Who do you think will know about this?"

Liu Shi lowered his head, fell into deep thought, and subconsciously, he couldn't find an answer in his mind, so he had to openly throw out this question.

Hearing this, Xie Jin knocked the fan in his hand on the palm of his left hand again. For a moment, he didn't think of any suspicious people.

Thinking about it, thinking about it, he simply got up and paced in front of the two.

"The one in the Jinhe River, I have said that if I go to him again, I will beat us out, he should not take the initiative to come to us, not to mention that he only treats us as three cranes......"

While walking, while talking, the fan in his hand was also knocking constantly, and I don't know which one suddenly accelerated, causing the other two to also speed up, and the consequence was that Xie Jin's figure in front of Liu Shi and Xu He was also getting faster and faster, so fast that Liu Shi could only see the remnants of the clothes on his body in a trance.

"Little Bean...... I shouldn't have remembered this, alas, big brother, could it be that we made too much of a fuss? Perhaps, is it really just an ordinary gauze lamp? ”

Sensing his uncertainty, Xie Jin suddenly stopped and sat down again, but this tone was a little faster than usual, but it really proved that the words he blurted out were just a comfort to his weak heart.

On the other side, at the same time, Yu Qinglin, who was dressed as a fortune teller, was holding a white banner more than one person tall in his hand. Above, it is simple, only four big characters are written: "fortune telling and divination".

Although the handwriting is scribbled and wild, it also seems to imply the writer's helplessness about life.

At this moment, he was standing far away at the door of the cyclamen, looking up and looking at the three large characters on the plaque painted with gold, dragons flying and phoenixes dancing.

"Cyclamen, cyclamen, also known as 'cranes', ha...... It's a pity...... Shy ...... in the bag"

Yu Qinglin muttered to himself, and then his body moved with his heart, only to see him turn into the wind, and in a blink of an eye, he had already entered the cyclamen. Not only had he come in with the cyclamen, but now he was seated, or rather, on a reclining chair.

I'm afraid that except for himself and the three teenagers in front of him who are staring at him, no one will find out that the gentleman who was still setting up a fortune teller on the opposite street just now has entered the plum room.

"Dare to ask the long name?"

Here, Liu Shi just stopped Xu He's fist beside him, then turned around and greeted Yu Qinglin very gently, and in his hand, the lamp was also raised in front of Yu Qinglin, and asked wordlessly.

With a casual glance, he glanced at the yarn lamp in front of him that happened to turn around in Liu Shi's hand, and noticed the changes in the three cranes on the lamp, Yu Qinglin slowly shook the dust whisk in his hand, got up, and then took the lamp from Liu Shi's hand.

"Tut-tut, it's not that you're stingy, it's just that your little prince really doesn't care about things, I borrowed this lamp from him, and I was going to get it back a few days ago, but I was late because of a delay, but I didn't expect to be poisoned."

Although he muttered so, his face also pretended to be distressed, his eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose were tangled together, just like when he took out all the silver on his body when he went to pick up wine, Yu Qinglin was overjoyed in his heart.

"Sure enough, it was in Yecheng, and this twist and turn didn't delay for long, but I don't know if these three people are ......."

"The three of us are as you think, and the Taoist is not bad, just go straight to the point, I'm afraid the three of us won't be able to stay here for long." After a while, what Yu Qinglin thought in his heart seemed to be not bad at all, and Liu Shi expected this, but Yu Qinglin was stunned.

looked at the yarn lamp in his hand again, although he didn't know that there were obviously four cranes on the lamp, but now there were only three people in front of him, but he could still rest assured that people were not wrong.

Yu Qinglin shook the sleeves of his robe and put the lamp back, maybe it was strange in the eyes of ordinary people, a lamp was thrown into his sleeve by him casually, but the sleeve was still not much different from before, as if the lamp never existed.

"That's it, I don't think your little prince is so naughty, if you can find a way to let your little prince take the prince and the princess of the Han Kingdom out of the palace to get together with me at the peak of Zhishui Peak, I won't care about this lamp anymore, how about it?" Yu Qinglin's eyes rolled, in fact, when he said this, he really didn't have much confidence.

No matter how you look at it, it's like he's begging for someone.

Without waiting for Liu Shi to admit it, Xie Jin gently patted his forehead with the fan bone of the fan he had closed in his hand, as if he remembered something, and said with a smile: "Water Stop? That's a great place......"

"Oh? I don't know when I want to make an appointment? Liu Shi shook his head to Xie Jin on the side behind him, and asked Yu Qinglin again. Obviously, he was going to say yes.

Shaking left and right cautiously, and responding without thinking, it seems that these three people are not just as simple as immortal cranes, but what are they still hiding?

"Today, a year later, at the peak of Zhishui Peak, I will wait for the three of you to come with those three."

"A year later? Isn't the Taoist chief afraid that we may not go? ”

When no one responded to Liu, Yu Qinglin, who was still in front of them, disappeared like a gust of wind.

The three teenagers looked at each other silently, and then, Liu Shi patted Xu He's shoulder, and the two turned around and left Mei Jian directly.

The remaining lonely figure, looking at the two burdens on the table, one large and one small, shook his head helplessly, so he had to hurry up and start to clean up, and then he didn't leave, but he would miss the time to enter the palace in the afternoon.
