244 White Snake
Leonardo da Vinci famously said that the eyes are the windows to the soul.
The human eye can not only see the colorful world, but also consciously or unconsciously convey the inner thoughts of the person.
As the sage Mencius said: 'Those who exist in people are better than their eyes.' The eyes cannot hide their evil. If the chest is right, the eyes are clear; If the chest is not right, the eyes will be squinting. Listen to his words, look at his eyes, how can he be? ’
Therefore, those who observe people's hearts are good at observing people's eyes. Although Bai Suzhen is a snake demon, she is really a monster with a clear heart. Knowing people's feelings, knowing the way of the world. Her level of life is not only higher than Xiaoqing, but even stronger than Xu Xian and Fahai.
When she saw Tang Shi, she was indeed attracted by the other party's appearance. The white dress also seemed to echo himself.
But then, the moment she looked into Tang Shi's eyes, the good feeling vanished. Those eyes didn't actually have any vicious or vicious meaning, on the contrary, Tang Shi's eyes were bright and shining.
But Bai Suzhen clearly saw a threat in Tang Shi's eyes, it was a feeling of being seen through, and even the smile on Tang Shi's face was also mocking herself in Bai Suzhen's eyes.
"Sister, that person is so strange, obviously an ordinary person without any aura, but his eyes are deep and tight, it's like, it's like ......"
Xiaoqing racked his brains, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and said: "It's like the big waterhole next to the purple bamboo forest, looking bright but cold and deep."
Bai Suzhen bowed her head slightly and said, "So you understand what I mean when I say that person is not simple."
Xiaoqing nodded, and then asked in surprise: "But sister, that person is just a scholar, just a mortal, he shouldn't have seen through our identity?"
"Perhaps...... He just looked like a mortal. Bai Suzhen said quietly.
Xiaoqing was stunned when she heard this, and then showed excitement and said, "What does my sister mean, this guy is the same as ours?"
Bai Suzhen shook her head and said, "There is no doubt that he is a human being, but maybe he is a cultivator."
"Daoist?" Xiao Qing showed an inexplicable look in his eyes and said, "Then let's go and meet him!"
Bai Suzhen frowned, and warned in a coquettish voice: "Xiaoqing must not cause more trouble, this is the world, not the purple bamboo forest."
Xiaoqing was a little displeased when she heard this, but she still replied obediently: "Got it, sister."
Reluctantly, Xiaoqing finally followed Bai Suzhen and left. It's just that she turned back three times in one step, but in her heart, she had already deeply portrayed Tang Shi's figure into her mind.
Like a child's heart, there are countless new and interesting things in the begging market, and Xiaoqing is quickly attracted to these things.
"Sister, there are a lot of people over there, let's go and have a look," Xiaoqing said as she excitedly pulled Bai Suzhen towards the crowded place in the distance.
Standing on the periphery, the cheers from time to time attracted Xiaoqing's curiosity even more, she stood on tiptoe, and the whole person became taller and taller. It's about standing out.
"Xiaoqing!"
Bai Suzhen reluctantly called softly, Xiaoqing's body became taller and taller due to curiosity, like a poisonous snake standing upright. Humans can't do that.
Xiaoqing looked back in surprise and said, "What's the matter, sister."
Bai Suzhen pulled Xiaoqing's sleeve, lowered Xiaoqing's tall body, and then shook her head slightly, and said in her ear: "Human beings can't be like you."
"It's a hassle to be a human being." Xiaoqing pursed her lips, full of displeasure.
Bai Suzhen smiled and said, "There are all kinds of rules for being a man, which is also the reason why people become the spirits of all things."
"I don't believe it!" Xiaoqing turned her head arrogantly and said, "We've seen a lot of unruly guys along the way, and they're also human."
Bai Suzhen shook her head with a wry smile and said, "Those are bad people, so naturally we can't learn from them."
"Why can't you learn? I think they're pretty easy to behave. Xiaoqing said nonchalantly.
Bai Suzhen's face was rare and serious, and said: "Xiaoqing, we naturally have to abide by the rules and be a good person when we learn to be a man, if we are presumptuous, how is it different from being a demon?"
Seeing that Xiaoqing didn't seem to be alert, Bai Suzhen held Xiaoqing's hand tightly and said, "Sister is looking forward to the day when you learn to be a man."
"Oh, got it." Xiaoqing responded listlessly.
At this moment, there was a sudden cheer from the surrounding crowd, and Xiaoqing was even more curious, "Sister, what are they calling?" ”
Bai Suzhen said with a smile: "They are guessing lantern riddles."
"Guess the lantern riddle? Is there a lantern riddle to guess at the begging festival? Xiaoqing asked puzzled.
"It's just a game of begging for color, it's the same as putting river lanterns, just a reason." Bai Suzhen said with a smile. There are many activities in the Qiqiao Festival, but in addition to throwing needles and testing skills, the rest of the river lanterns, guessing lantern riddles and so on are not traditional projects. The reason for this situation is that it will be lively for seven days before and after the Qiqiao Festival. For such a long time, in addition to various traditional projects, the celebration methods of other festivals have naturally been moved.
"Lantern riddles? Let's take a look. He didn't wait for Bai Suzhen's answer, and squeezed directly into the crowd.
Bai Suzhen smiled helplessly, and also walked over. I saw that in the crowd, a lantern was hanging there.
Xiaoqing happily pointed to a lantern and said, "Sister, I know this lantern riddle."
Bai Suzhen followed Xiaoqing's gaze and saw that it was written: "Women are exposed to the sun, and embroidery needles look clumsy"
"I know that the answer is to test the trick of the needle." Xiaoqing raised her head proudly, as if waiting for Bai Suzhen's praise.
But after waiting for a while, I didn't hear Bai Suzhen's praise, and I turned my head in surprise, but saw the latter smile helplessly and said, "This is the introduction."
"Introduction? What is it? Xiaoqing asked puzzled.
Bai Suzhen said: "The introduction is a riddle used by the store to attract people to guess the riddle, it is a very simple riddle, and some will even write the riddle on it."
"Really?" Xiaoqing became more and more puzzled, and then turned the lantern curiously, and sure enough, there was the answer to the riddle on the back of the lantern.
"It's really ......," Xiaoqing muttered unhappily.
Bai Suzhen took her hand and said, "Okay, okay, let's go to the front and have a look."
After walking a few steps, Xiaoqing suddenly pointed ahead in surprise and said, "Sister, look, it's that person!"
Sure enough, in the direction that Xiaoqing pointed, it was Tang Shi's figure, Bai Suzhen frowned slightly, and said, "Why did you meet him again?"
Before, he was obviously the opposite of Tang Shi, but he didn't expect to meet him here again.
When Bai Suzhen was puzzled, she saw Tang Shi actually walking towards her.
Xiaoqing said in surprise: "Sister, that person came over."
