Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Fire Tree and the Silver Flower Never Sleep
"The ...... I want"
Qingwan female voice smiled in a low voice, but with an indescribable charm-
"What I want...... It's one of your three souls and seven spirits. β
"Three souls and seven spirits?"
Ruan Qi suddenly remembered that when he was a child, the old man said in ancient times that people have three souls and seven spirits, corresponding to the ten bright lamps of the witch practice, once more than half of the lights are extinguished, people's lives are also over.
She blinked her eyes as hard as she could, endured the sharp pain on her body, and suddenly regained her consciousness, "What will happen if you lose one of them?" β
"Huh...... What a cautious temptation! β
The laughter was gentle and pleasant, "If you lose more than half, of course, you have no physiology, but if you lose only one of them, you will only lose the number of lives of its function." β
"The three souls and seven spirits have their own functions...... The three souls are fetal light, cool spirit, and ghost spirit, which are the main lifespan, wealth, and calamity. β
The voice of charm lingered, as if an invisible hand was pouting Ruan Qi's heart, and asked her to listen carefully one by one-
"And the seven spirits are the corpse dog, the arrow, the bird's yin, the thief swallower, the non-poisonous, the defilement, the stinky lung......"
The mysterious woman spoke eloquently, and then she chuckled, "These are extremely subtle words, but I have only one principle - only to make fair, wishful transactions. β
"So, you can choose any one of the three souls and seven spirits that is useless in exchange for a face you want."
"It's worth it for you, isn't it?"
Whispering softly and chuckling, Ruan Qi curled up slightly, leaned against the low wall surrounded by vines, and quietly closed his eyes.
Endless silence.
There was a faint sound of laughter in the distance, but it seemed that the place was terrifyingly quiet, and it was so dark that it was blurred.
"I choose the Fu Ya, the master of the evil poison Fu Ya."
She whispered, the lines of her lips trembling slightly, looking a little thin and sharp.
"A smart move...... Compared with the pain of not being able to sleep at night, unable to conceive, etc., the so-called evil qi internal poison, drink more honeysuckle tea, and you can suppress it. β
"Now that you've decided...... Then our transaction starts from this moment. β
With a charming smile, the white smoke became thicker, and the antique leaf fan also slowly fanned in mid-air-
In the next moment, Ruan Qi felt the white smoke wrap himself up, and the breeze brought by the fan blew on his face, but it was like a knife cut!
She couldn't hold it anymore and let out a hoarse scream, and her mind began to blur.
"Poor ......"
In the end, what remained in Ruan Qi's ears was this laughing and contemptuous voice, and the ensuing Qingman singing-
"The laughter gradually fades away, but the amorous ...... is ruthlessly annoyed"
In a trance, Ruan Qigui reminded him that this was the lyrics in the excerpt "Butterfly Loves Flowers".
When the Queen Mother was in the palace, she had ordered this one, so she felt familiar.
The sharp pain in her face gave her no time to think again, and she screamed again, and she fell into a fainting.
****
When Danli and the three of them left the palace from the Chengyou Gate, they were not carefully inspected, and the palace gate guards glanced at the waist card and waved them outβthere was still a long line waiting to leave the palace behind them, and there was indeed no time to look at it.
Tiandu follows the old system of Zhou Li, Shangyuan Festival has a total of five days, today is the beginning, the lanterns stretch, prosperous thousands, so lively few people are willing not to see.
Danli walked on the bluestone slats on Xuanwu Street, feeling the hard and ironing touch under his feet, but he was speechless by the scene in front of him.
I saw dozens of miles from north to south, the lights were in the sky, the drums shook the sky, the shadow of the long bridge was symmetrical to the stars on the shore, and the dragon palace was generally brilliant and illusory.
Walk slowly to the long bridge and look into the distance, but see that in the streets and alleys, the fire is a swimming dragon, winding endlessly, it is really dizzying!
"It's a great place!"
Mei Xuan's waiter praised it, only to hear the sound in his ears, he couldn't help but raise his head to look, and then pointed out in surprise: "Look, it's setting off fireworks!" β
The fireworks were brilliant in five colors, dyeing everyone's faces with a layer of bright red, bright yellow, and turquoise...... In addition to the five colors, there are also heavy chrysanthemums, flying immortals, swaying rain and other light maps, everyone can't take their eyes off it.
Dan Li seemed to have something on his mind, staring at the fireworks thoughtfully, his eyes looking a little absent-minded.
"What's wrong?"
Mei Xuan's eyes were sharp, and she turned around to look at her carefully, but she didn't notice anything unusual.
"It's nothing, it's just that the fireworks are burning and falling into my eyes."
Danli replied with a smile, rubbing his eyes, but looking back in the direction of the palace-
This breath ...... Is it the Heavenly Shu Sect Master's Dream Flowing Frost?!
How could she suddenly appear in the palace!
Dan Li thought about this, and couldn't help frowning slightly-what is this old witch who loves to sing?!
"Smackββ!
A crisp sound interrupted her deep speculation.
"Dan Li, look!"
Mei Xuanzhi pulled her sleeve, and when Danli raised his head, he saw the largest fireworks rising into the sky, splendid and beautiful, indescribably beautiful - it was actually a map of the territory of mountains and rivers, and there were four big characters on it "Ten thousand years forever".
"Okay!"
"Wonderful!"
Everyone cheered together, but Ji You hurriedly ran back - in such a short time, he had already changed into men's clothes, obviously he had been in the palace all day in women's clothes, and he was already suffocated.
Ji You stood still, staring at the slowly dissolving flame in front of him. Changing his previous jokes and laziness, he said lightly: "The fireworks are fleeting, and the four words of eternal longevity are wiped out in an instant, which is really ridiculous!" β
Although his voice was not low, it was mixed with laughter and excitement, but only Danli and Mei Xuanzhi could hear it.
Mei Xuanzhi frowned and screwed him hard, "You're dying!" β
Ji You wailed, almost didn't jump up, he groaned loudly, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly raised his voice, and suddenly he was full of emotions, and he sang well-
"Oh, lady, the husband just stepped forward to admire the lanterns, and when you saw that the girl who was serving the lanterns was as beautiful as a flower, she knocked over the vinegar jar...... Ouch, let's go around as a husband, I don't dare to look at it anymore! β
At this time, the fireworks were just over for a while, and everyone heard the sound of fighting and begging for mercy, and immediately talked about it, laughing and looking lively.
Mei Xuan's waiter was watching left and right, her face flushed with anger, and she couldn't wait to fan Ji You's smiling face, she couldn't wait to fan it away, her eyes rolled, and she suddenly said in a sad and aggrieved tone-
"Husband, your lustful old problem just doesn't change, such an old mother-in-law, even the wrinkles are about to be pleated, but you still took her hand, sweetly praising her for being 'beautiful like a flower', if I don't pull you away, I'm afraid that the canopy in my mother-in-law's hand will be smashed over!"
When everyone heard her answer like this, they first burst into laughter, and then burst into laughter.
"Hahaha-"
"This little Langjun is handsome, he has such a hobby!"
"What a human being who can't be seen!"
Ji You felt the ridicule and probing gaze around him, and his face suddenly became hot, and he was so angry that he didn't know what to say.
