Chapter Ninety-Six: Bitter Tea
"The smoke cage is cold and the sand is long at night, and the night is close to the restaurant. ”
On the bank of the Huai River, all kinds of ships float in the Huai River, some of the official women wear light gauze clothes, wrap their bodies, and just right to show their graceful figures to the pedestrians who have been exposed, occasionally show a merchant ship far from the other side, the sailors on the ship whistle some to these beautiful official women, they don't care, and even make provocative movements to breathe the sailors on the ship, a few young chicks who have never seen the world blushed and hurriedly hid in the merchant ship.
This is an open source and peaceful scenery to see, waiting for leisure can not be seen, only in this Huaishui town, which is sheltered by the deserted city and is the place where the north and south are tossed and turned.
On a beautiful ship, Ye Qing and Yinrong sat facing each other, and there were two cups of tea on the coffee table in front of them, the fragrance of tea accompanied by water vapor flowed into the noses of the two, and the fragrance of bitter tea after brewing was intoxicating.
The two had already arrived at the ship, but they didn't speak, Ye Qing always looked out the window, looking at the lights and shadows on the Huai River, even if it was a beauty like Yin Rong in front of him, he didn't care.
Thoughts flew to the past, it was not the first time he had been here, his mother was an enlightened person, and there was wisdom hidden under her beautiful face, which had a great impact on Ye Qing's childhood, the situation at home was not very good before, and even lived very poorly, but she still often took Ye Qing out of the village and went to other small towns to see, hoping that Ye Qing could see more and gain more knowledge, this is the farthest place he has ever been.
Mother once pointed to the ships in the Huaishui and told Ye Qing the beauty of these ships, how long the Huaishui is, how big the city is, it was a wonderful time, but unfortunately after giving birth to his sister, his mother's body became weaker and weaker, and he never left the village until the war broke out, and his mother handed his sister into his hands.
"Sister Ye Qing, do you like it here?" The crisp female voice was like a rhythm, interrupting Ye Qing's thoughts and pulling Ye Qing back from her memories.
"I just remembered some things from the past, and I just felt a little emotional. Ye Qing shook his head and said lightly, the sadness in his eyes was hidden by him, and he regained his clarity.
In fact, whether it is Ye Qing or Yinrong, he is not very old, even if he looks slightly older than his peers, the immaturity on his face cannot be eliminated, such a statement will seem a little funny in the eyes of others, but Ye Qing has experienced death and resurrection, and has gone through the process of humanity in front of the tombstone of the Immortal Emperor, young and precocious, in his opinion, it is not strange for him to say this.
The voice in front of her only smiled faintly, she was not an ordinary person, although she was a little surprised by Ye Qing's performance, she would not show it on her face, she gently picked up the bitter tea on the table, made a "please" gesture to Ye Qing, and drank it like in her throat.
Bitter tea is very bitter, although the tea aroma is intoxicating, but the first taste after the entrance is bitter, unexpectedly bitter, bitter stimulates the taste buds on the tip of the tongue, and it does not disperse for a long time, fortunately, Ye Qing's concentration is very, even if he is uncomfortable in his heart, he does not show it immediately, and swallows this mouthful of strong tea with bitterness.
"Sister Ye Qing, do you like it?" Yin Rong put down the teacup and said to herself, she seemed to be accustomed to the bitterness in the tea, her expression was indifferent, her demeanor was elegant, and she did not feel disturbed by the bitterness of the bitter tea at all.
Ye Qing did not respond, it is common for people who practice the piano to taste tea, the two are very similar, they are both good things of Tao Yan's sentiments, in the past, his mother also liked to drink tea while playing the piano, and after entering the Changsheng Lu, Gu Shengsheng was even more so, three cups of tea every day were never interrupted, and the two tasted tea because of the difference in status More or less different, but they were both sweet after tasting bitterness, and the taste of this bitter tea is not easy to explain, there is no sweetness of ordinary tea, and the taste is only bitter, which is really not good.
"Sister don't care about me, I also know that the taste of this bitter tea is really not good, and it should even be said to be very bad, all the tastes have been lost, only this bitter aftertaste is left, but I like this tea, the bitterness in the tea can always make me sober, pull me out of the glitz of this world, maintain my Dao heart, and let it always remain clear. ”
Yin Rong smiled faintly, took the teacup beside Ye Qing and put it carefully, and the maid who was waiting on the side carefully took the tea away, leaving only a slight footstep.
"Sister Ye Qing, do you know what the little sister is asking her sister to come to?" The voice opened flatly, once again took the teacup from the maid's hand, and carefully poured tea for Ye Qing, no longer the bitter tea before, but replaced with a flower tea, the petals floated on the tea, even if the internal moisture had been lost, it still exuded a faint brilliance, and the rich aroma quickly dispersed, and the whole ship was full of fragrance.
Ye Qing shook his head, he probably guessed the meaning of Yin Rong, presumably his conflict with King Peng in Lin Yue City had reached the ears of some people, these people either planned to kill him and take his head to ask King Peng for merit, or wanted to befriend him, after all, Ye Qing was extremely talented, as long as he could avoid King Peng's pursuit, it was almost a sure thing to become a member of the great power in the future.
But he didn't know if Yin Rong was the former or the latter, Ye Qing could feel that Yin Rong didn't have the slightest killing intent, otherwise he wouldn't have followed the other party into here so easily, you must know that if he encountered a powerful ambush here, he would almost die.
"My sister's experience in Lin Yuecheng is very sympathetic, since my sister has come to this Huaishui Town, she must be planning to enter the town to avoid trouble. Yin Rong smiled and continued, the fragrance of the tea on the table was already strong to the extreme, but neither of them moved, compared to this fragrant tea, Ye Qing felt that bitter tea was more suitable for his current self.
"Hmm" Ye Qing nodded, since Yin Rong knew his identity, there was no need to hide it, since he had already arrived in Huaishui Town, it was inevitable to go to Zhenhuang City, otherwise there would be no point for him to come here.
"Sister is so calm, aren't you afraid that your little sister will pay attention to you? You must know that King Peng has offered a sky-high reward, and now many people want to get Sister Ye Qing's head and ask King Peng for credit. The voice said with a smile, like the cry of a lark, which hooked people's hearts.
"You don't have murderous intent, and even if you want to kill me, you don't have to wait until now, let alone bring it up in such a situation. Ye Qing returned lightly, his eyes staring at the sound, the bright candlelight illuminated the faces of the two, and the slender shadow shone into the water through the screen window.
"Hehe, I found that I like my sister more and more, since my sister is planning to go to the town of deserted cities, I don't know if I can be with me, and the two of them can take care of each other. Yin Rong smiled, and did not continue the previous topic, and the white fingers touched the cherry red lips a little, and the delicate lips seemed to be dripping at any time, beautiful and compelling.
Ye Qing didn't care about the provocative movements of the sound and appearance, and looked at the beauty in front of him curiously, I have to say that the sound and appearance are very beautiful, even if she has been opposite Ye Qing, Ye Qing has already examined the other party countless times, and she still can't help but marvel, this is a perfect woman, with a smile and a smile, she has built herself like a dream.
But this is such a beauty, but at this time she put forward the idea of being with herself, Yinrong is obviously not a stupid person, Ye Qing does not believe that the other party is fascinated by herself, with Yinrong's beauty, I am afraid that there is nothing in the world that can fascinate him, in this case, why should she be with herself.
Ye Qing is now remembered by King Peng, not only King Peng, Lao Jiaojun, the city lord of Lin Yue City, some hidden demons are also investigating Ye Qing's bottom even if they are not for their own children and nephews, after all, Ye Qing has no bottom, but he can go retrograde and kill King Xiaopeng, it is impossible to say that there are no secrets on his body, under the memory of so many people, to put it mildly, Ye Qing is now a wild dog that everyone shouts and beats, where will anyone be willing to walk with him, this is death.
But the woman in front of her didn't seem to care about this, and she risked the world to be with him, which was too strange.
"Why?" Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, Ye Qing had to ask.
"No, why, I just want to find someone to go to the deserted city together. Yin Rong smiled faintly, not caring about Ye Qing's question at all.
"You know you're going to be in danger with me, so why do you want to get involved, I don't think it's going to do you any good. Ye Qing continued, he didn't understand the thoughts of the woman in front of him, the other party seemed to be confident, but along the way, Jin Shiyu had already told him how terrifying what he was facing, don't say that those big people hidden in the shadows, a single Peng King can overwhelm him, that is a terrifying Jin Peng, and what is even more terrifying is that he is in the prime of life, he is the top pillar of the Jin Peng clan, and even the demon clan in the entire Northern Wilderness has a great right to speak, and the power is far beyond Ye Qing's ability.
"Hehe, who said that there is no benefit, Sister Ye Qing should not be lighthearted, Sister Ye Qing, you can kill King Xiaopeng, besides, as far as I know, you can even compare to pure-blooded beasts in the same realm, the potential is terrifying, I just went to the town with you to fight in the deserted city, and I didn't fight with King Peng and these people head-on, if this can get your favor, this transaction is a big profit, if I am not willing to do this investment, then how can I gain a foothold in this vast wilderness?"
Ye Qing looked at Yin Rong, only a few people knew that he could fight with pure-blooded fierce beasts, and most of them didn't know his life, how did Yin Rong know?
"Sister, don't worry, I know that your ability is just a coincidence, you don't have to mind, it's just that I can't say it clearly. Yin Rong looked at Ye Qing's puzzled eyes, said with a smile, gently sipped the tea in the teacup, and replied slowly.
