Chapter 66: Into the Tiger's Den (3)

"Forget it, just pick it up and burn it when I leave." I slapped his hand off, stood up and walked on.

"Girl, which yard are you going to go to? Want not to join me? Practicing swords is also very interesting. Kuroko followed in a few steps and said with a smile.

"I want to learn music and dance." Although I hated Ranki, I will never forget her amazing dancing on the drum that day, and I will feel a lingering aftertaste every time I think about it.

"What do you do with that?" Kuroko snorted coldly, his chin raised with disdain, "I learned to accompany the nobles to drink and have fun, and no matter how good it is, I will be a concubine, where is our life." ”

"Is Tianshu training female music just to be concubines for nobles?"

"That's not it, the news from their yard is no less than that of the merchants." Kuroko said pleadingly.

"Why are you willing to serve Tianshu, the world outside is so big, and it is more than enough for a man like you to be a guest of a noble family? You don't dare to run away, are you afraid of Mingyi's spell? ”

Kuroko gave me a disdainful look and said, "What do such a carefree lady like you know? Everyone here is willing to stay. The outside world, that is a place where people eat people! ”

"Where people eat people?"

"When I was six years old, the Song State fought against the Cao State, and the place where we lived was besieged by the Song soldiers for more than three months. When the food in the city was eaten up, and the grass on the ground was eaten up, they began to eat it for their children. In order to prevent people from snatching and eating her sister, A-Niang cut off the meat on her arm and gave it to the people who came to grab the food. Have you ever seen what a human bone looks like? I've seen it, white flowers, and a little bit of black and red flesh. Kuroko looked at me in a daze, the moisture in his eyes rose, and the corners of his mouth kept upturned when he spoke, which was a heart-wrenching smile that was more heart-wrenching than crying, "Then the reinforcements arrived, but A-Niang's hands were rotten, and she couldn't speak while lying on the bed, so she could only hum out." Daddy wanted to secretly go out of the city to collect some medicine, but was shot to death by Cao Guo's own soldiers as spies. ”

"What about your sister? What happened to her? "I held his hand and tried to calm him down.

Heizi glanced at me and wiped a handful of tears with his sleeve: "I took her out of Cao Country and begged all the way to Jin Kingdom." We've stolen things together, we've beaten people together, we've been beaten by others, and although we've had a hard time, we're at least still together. Later, when my sister was nine years old, she was taken by a nobleman on the road, who sold herself into slavery and gave me five coins. Originally, I was also happy, but she didn't have to starve with me when I entered the mansion. But within a few days, she was beaten to death by the housekeeper in the house. They said she had stolen a bag of sorghum. ”

"She wants to steal the rice out to you?"

"Well, I hurt her. I want to avenge her, but I can't beat them. In the end, it was my uncle who saved me and killed the housekeeper for me. At that time, I swore that one day I would become as strong as my uncle! ”

"You can!"

Kuroko smiled self-deprecatingly: "I've been here for five years, and as soon as I go out, I'll be deceived by you dead girl." What a fart powerhouse, he can't even keep a sword. ”

"I'm sorry, I don't know...... I shouldn't ...... Hey, what do you want me to say! ”

"Grandma, you have done me a great favor by staying here obediently for the past four months!"

"I promise you!" I nodded and replied solemnly.

Things in the world, sometimes I can't tell who is right and who is wrong, ten days ago Kuroko was still my enemy, but today listening to his story, I suddenly felt sorry for him, thinking that I must give him a good sword when I have the opportunity in the future.

Since I promised Kuroko to stay honestly in Tianshu for four months, I have to find something to pass the time.

On this day, after I washed up, I went to the courtyard where the female musicians practiced dancing with great interest.

At this time, although the harsh winter has passed, there is still a thin layer of ice in the small puddles on the road in the cold spring season. I let out a sigh of white air and stretched out my hand to push open the door of the women's music.

The world behind this door should be the world of many men's dreams!

Yaoqin moves, the song starts, the white clothes win the snow, delicate as a flower, more than 30 young girls hold colorful pheasant feathers in their hands, dancing in front of the blue pool. They were wearing translucent white gauze clothes, which were as light as mist, and the woman's beautiful carcass could be clearly seen when the sun shone brightly.

Hey, if a man strays into this place, I'm afraid he will leave all the three souls and seven spirits here.

On the first day, I sat by the pool of blue water and watched the beautiful women drool;

On the second day, Mama Xi pinched my muscles and bones for me, saying that the tendons were too hard, and I needed to wait for my legs, feet, and back to be soft to practice dancing;

The third day was the beginning of all my pains......

Every day, when I stretched my muscles until I was dying, the sisters in the yard saw a newcomer and joined forces to bully me. Every day I was embarrassed by the actions I couldn't do, and when I dizzy and fell to the ground, they trembled and laughed.

At first, I felt angry, but after a long time, I found that they all treated me like a sister, laughing and teasing, and teaching love. If I make a mistake while practicing dance, my sisters will also be punished with me, and I never complain.

Zhou Li stipulated a very strict music and dance system, such as "Cloud Gate Scroll", "Dazhang", "Dashao", "Daxia", "Dahui", "Dawu" These six dances have always been used for grand sacrifices, and are controlled by the great musicians of various countries, and the noble men can only learn after they are twenty crowns. Of course, the common people have no right to practice.

Therefore, in Tianshu, the female musicians mainly learn loose music. Although it is not as elegant as the six dances, it is the most popular dance of pleasure in the world.

Dance at sunrise and rest at sunset. For more than half a month, my pace, body shape, and posture have been small, but I have no talent enough, which greatly delays the progress of others. Seeing that there was an important feast in three months, I couldn't bear to ask everyone to leave the female music because of my hard work.

Kuroko thought that I had finally opened my mind, so he took me around the Gen hexagram and Xun hexagram. Wielding a long sword and stabbing skillfully, although I have the heart to study, there are always inconvenient times when I stay with a group of men all day long.

In the end, after going around and around, I decided to go to Kungua to learn the art of Qihuang.

The courtyard of the Kun Guagram was built on the north side of the valley, and the doctor in charge was a gray-haired old man who did not like to talk. When he saw me, he didn't ask anything, but threw me a bunch of tattered books and Janes, and gave me three days to read them, and then went to the medicine garden on the mountainside to find him.

Three days later, I went to the back mountain with blue and black circles under my eyes.

At this time, the snow on the mountain had not melted, and there were thorns everywhere, and I climbed with my hands and feet for more than two hours to reach the back mountainside. I thought it would be difficult to find a medicine garden in the middle of the jungle, but as soon as I reached the mountainside, I found a magical place. It is full of greenery and flowers, and the white mist that rises from the ground drives away the cold of early spring. Tender yellow, grass green, light purple, pink, colorful flowers bloom all over the medicine garden.

"What are you doing standing there stupidly? Don't come in yet! The doctor squatted in the middle of the medicine garden with a straight face, holding a small hoe in his hand and digging something in the field.

"I've seen Yichen!" I bowed and cautiously walked into the medicine garden.

"Finished reading the book?" Yichen asked.

"I'm done."

"Remember, I'll just say it once." Yichen stood up, pointed to the herbs in the medicine garden and began to explain them one by one.
