Chapter 146: The Story Behind the Red Bead

Regarding his cheekiness, Qu Youying really had nothing to refute.

She can only work harder, one by one.

"First of all, speaking of the latest one, why do you want to cooperate with Jiang Tong?"

The reason why she asked this was nothing more than what Jiang Tong and Mu Yu sang and harmonized just now, because the real Shui Linze would never marry her.

But Jiang Tong had to say that Shui Linze took the initiative to request, and "Shui Linze" did not refuse, so he could only explain that this was a cooperative relationship between the two.

And this matter is even if it is true, Shui Linze does not know.

"Jiang Tong?" Xi Fengyi blinked blankly, "Who is it!" ”

"Master, can you be serious!"

Qu Youying is really going crazy, she can be regarded as having successfully realized the reason why Mu Jingzhu, who was teased by her and her master at that time, would be angry.

"I've always been very serious about being a teacher."

Xi Fengyi also shook his head very emphatically.

Qu Youying lay on the table in defeat, her forehead colliding with the tabletop, making a lot of noise.

Xi Fengyi looked at her, but said, "Be careful, this table is precious, in case it is smashed by you, it will be distressing for the teacher." ”

"You!"

I don't feel sorry for the table or for her? Qu Youying instantly felt a sense of frustration that wanted to cry without tears.

She took a deep breath, took another deep breath, then took the tea in front of him, poured it down, then slammed the cup in front of him, pointed at him before he could speak, and said loudly, "Don't feel sorry for your tea!" ”

Xi Fengyi held back a smile, then took out a silk handkerchief from her arms, and carefully wiped the tea stains from the corners of her mouth.

And he said, "Do it for the teacher!" It's just that I don't want you to marry that kid Jing Zhu in the future. ”

"Huh?"

Qu Youying was a little confused by his sudden words, didn't he want her to marry Mu Jingzhu the most before?

"For ...... What the? ”

Her eyes grew up, and there was a slight confusion in her eyes.

Xi Fengyi's eyebrows bent, and he instantly showed an indecent appearance.

"Because that kid will hurt you in the future, and I can't bear to see you cry for the sake of the teacher."

He poured himself a new glass of water, and his slender and beautiful fingers rubbed the edge of the teacup, as if he were playing with an antique of great value, and his movements were serious.

But when I said this, the expression was really bad.

The emotions that Qu Youying was a little touched at the beginning of the beating disappeared in an instant, leaving only a sigh of the race.

"Master, the reason you say must be believed. Jing Zhu and Shui Lin Ze, who do you think I will believe? ”

Qu Youying was so angry that she didn't even want to roll her eyes, took the clean teacup, poured a cup of tea herself, blew away the fragrant heat, put it to her mouth, took a sip gently, and ignored him again.

"You don't believe it?" Xi Fengyi seemed to be a little sad that his apprentice didn't believe his words, but the sadness didn't reach the bottom of his eyes, so he dispersed, but he still complained and said, "It's said that the boiled duck flew, why did my cute and obedient little apprentice when he was a child fly!" It's really a woman's big girl! ”

"What is called a boiled duck flies!" Qu Youying's forehead was bruised, "Master, your analogy is really-"

She didn't know what words to use to describe the person in front of her, lying on the table weakly, her heart was very tired and tired.

Xi Fengyi was not affected at all, and waved his hands with a smile, which was considered comforting.

"Alright, alright! Just kidding! You don't need to take it seriously. ”

Qu Youying pursed her lips, and when the left ear went in and the right ear went out.

After lying on the table for a while, she asked, "Then the second question, will you meet with Shui Linze, do you want to use the skin painting technique to get the ancient scroll?" But if so, why do you write to me and ask me to come here and help you find the location of the ancient scrolls? You can't be too bored, right? ”

"How is this possible!" Xi Fengyi immediately retorted, and said with a serious expression, "I am busy with affairs for the teacher. This time, I didn't come in person because I was afraid that you would suffer losses and hurt and feel sorry for you. ”

"Cut." Qu Youying was very uncooperative and showed a look of disdain, "Say, what did you trade with Shui Linze?" Why are you all close to him? Is there anything special about him? ”

Judging from Qu Youying's understanding of this person, she didn't think that Shui Linze had anything too attractive, so she intuitively felt that there was no place for Mu Jingzhu to tell the truth.

That's why she asked Xi Fengyi like this, because she wanted to get some clues from his mouth, although she also knew that this possibility was almost zero.

"Well, this one!" Xi Fengyi suddenly knocked on his shoulder, "Why is your shoulder so sore?" ”

Qu Youying knew that he was cheap, but in order to know the answer, she still got up behind him and pinched his shoulder.

With a smile on her face, she said skillfully, "Master, are you comfortable?" ”

"Comfortable." Xi Fengyi enjoyed it very much, "Sure enough, Xiaoying still loves the master the most." ”

"Then isn't it time for Master to get down to business?"

"Okay, then I'll tell you!"

Xi Fengyi slapped his thigh, and he really had the momentum of saying what he wanted to say.

Qu Youying didn't take it seriously, she was just ready to deal with him for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Xi Fengyi really said it truthfully.

"At first, I didn't really want to meet him, but in addition to the ancient scrolls, the teacher found that this Shui Linze had two red beads on his hands."

Qu Youying was stunned, "Hongzhu? ”

"Yes."

Xi Fengyi faced forward, and there was a calligraphy and painting on the opposite wall that was some years old, and the crooked font and lifelike picture converged into a very strange feeling.

But if you look at it from a different angle, everything on the painting has another mystery.

He stared at the painting, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he said to Qu Youying behind him, "It's the red bead left by your mother before she died." With the addition of the two in Shui Linze's hand, there are already five. ”

Qu Youying's hand knocked on his shoulder, and suddenly shook, her fingers were slightly bent, she sat sideways beside Xi Fengyi, and asked again with a look of disbelief, "Are you sure you didn't lie to me?" ”

What answered her was a little heavier than her eyebrows, and Xi Fengyi's sad eyes, "Xiaoying, I am your master, I never lie to you!" ”

"Come on!" Qu Youying didn't put his pretended sadness into his heart at all, and said coldly, "If you don't pit me, I will be Amitabha!" ”

"Oh, it's really a big girl! Raising you for the teacher and teaching you to learn, this is how you view the master? Woo woo, when you are old in the future, aren't you going to ascend to the sky? Woo woo, how did I teach such an apprentice as you, it really hurts the heart of a teacher-"

The more he talked, the more energetic he became, and he lowered his head to wipe away his tears, no matter how good Qu Youying's temper was, he was tormented by him before and after.

In the end, she could only grab Xi Fengyi's hand, hold it in the palm of her hand, and comfort against her will, "Master, please rest assured, the apprentice will definitely honor you well until you are a hundred years old." ”

In order to convince him, Qu Youying poured him a glass of water, and almost knelt down, and Xi Fengyi restrained himself.

When the hand is taken away from the face, where is the half of the tears? The light in his eyes was clearer than before.

The corners of Qu Youying's mouth twitched, and she could only see it.

"Master, where did you know about the red beads? From Shui Lin Zena, you want to get red beads and ancient scrolls, I'm afraid it's difficult, right? ”

Qu Youying forcibly put the topic that he had shifted back on the right path.

Xi Fengyi's expression was not flawed at all, and he said very calmly, "The teacher knows that you are your mother's death, and I have always been haunted, so after I knew the whereabouts of the red beads, I traded the red beads with him, and you stole the ancient scrolls, anyway, as long as you come out, Jing Candle's child will definitely follow you." ”

"So you're just using me as bait?"

"yes, what do you think? Do you have a great ability to see candles? ”

A master belittles his apprentice mercilessly like this, Qu Youying really wants to answer him, "The upper beam is not right, the lower beam is crooked".

But when the words came to his mouth, he thought that he was just trying to help her find the red bead, so he swallowed this breath.

"But the red beads that appeared before were deliberately left on the side of the deceased or the murder, why did Shui Linze collect red beads? Could it be that he was also involved in several previous murders? ”

Faced with Qu Youying's speculation, Xi Fengyi shook his head quite seriously this time and said, "Not really." ”

"What's that?"

"Because that's what someone gave him when he was a kid."

"Who gave it?"

Xi Fengyi shook his head, indicating that he didn't know, scratched his chin with his fingers, and said, "You still don't know the origin of this red bead, right?" ”

Qu Youying raised her eyebrows, nodded, and did not speak.

Xi Fengyi picked up the cup of tea that was already cold, approached his mouth, opened his mouth and drank a small half, and then put it down, but did not let go of the cup, but held the bottom of the cup with his hand, and looked at the painting in front of him again.

"Before you talk about that, look at the painting."

Qu Youying was a little unnatural, he suddenly became serious, but he still followed his line of sight and looked at the painting on the wall.

The painting, which is said to be a painting, actually has seven stories painted in it.

Qu Youying walked into the wall, stood on tiptoe, and started to look at the top painting.

Each story is very simple, with a few words written on the side, which is a judgment on that story.

Qu Youying only looked at two, and then frowned.

"This paintingβ€”" She was a little shocked, because the content of this painting was too similar, she raised her hand, touched the scene on the painting, and said, "Resentment will be, birth, old age, sickness and death, love and parting, I can't ask for it." This painting depicts the seven sufferings of Buddhism. ”

"In the case of the Wang family in Xiangling Town, you got the red beads of the Resentment Society. In the white bones of Xilin, although it is an experience that spans decades, the original death, but its essence is actually to find life, so what you get is a red bead engraved with life. By your mother's side, what you get is death. And Shui Linze-"

"It's old and sick."

Qu Youying took what he said, because following the order of the painting, the fourth and fifth stories are together, about an old man who tried to encroach on everything he lost back then, but in the end he did not escape the death of illness.

Although the story is simple, the deep meaning diffracted in it has to make people think deeply.
