Chapter 82: The Lone Star of Destiny
"Did you fall overboard?"
A female voice came from behind her, Qing He looked back, and the person who spoke was a pretty girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a goose-yellow light Luo skirt embroidered with white mulberry flowers at the skirt, which was very fresh.
Without waiting for Qing He to answer, the girl jumped over by herself, squatting beside Qing He and looking at her curiously.
Qing He also looked at this girl unceremoniously, with a glutinous little face, big eyes flashing, very smart and cute.
The curiosity in Qinghe's heart is no less than her, in the middle of the night, a single woman is in this secluded place, she has to swim here because she fell into the water, this girl is alone, what is the matter here?
If it weren't for the fact that there were no monsters in the world, she would definitely think it was a rabbit spirit.
"Are you alright?" The girl in yellow asked Qinghe.
At this moment, a series of footsteps stepping on the grass not far away came close to Qinghe's ears, like a trot.
"Second Miss, don't run around, the lights are blind, be careful of snakes in the grass." Chasing after was a mother-in-law of about forty, whose tone was strange, but her face was kind.
Got a snake?
As soon as Qing He heard this, he hurriedly withdrew his feet, curled up in a ball, and was next to the girl, not daring to move.
What she feared most was the kind of long, mollusk that stood on end at the thought of it.
I didn't have any friends during the ancient flood, but it was because most of those ancient gods had snake bodies.
"Second Miss, what are you talking to yourself here, it's not too early, it's time to go home." The woman said to the maiden.
Talk to oneself?
By the way, Qinghe Suo became a small ball and stuck behind the second lady of their family, so Mama Lin couldn't see her.
"Mama Lin, you see there is a young lady who has fallen into the water, let's take her for a ride."
"Little sister?" Mama Lin took two steps forward, and then saw a girl curled up behind her young lady, wet and drenched, like a dripping cabbage.
Mama Lin is dozens of years old, but she is no better than this ignorant girl who does not understand the world.
I thought that in the middle of the night, this place is secluded, I am accompanying the young lady to put the lamp, this girl is single, what are you doing here? I felt a little furious in my heart.
I have heard that there are many souls under this white lake, but now I see that this girl is dripping with water, and her face is as white as paper...... Isn't it......
"Two small. Small.. Miss, I didn't see any young ladies... Let's go. "It seems that this woman is very knowledgeable and knows how to deal with such things that should not be seen.
Before he finished speaking, he pulled the confused second lady and ran to the carriage and horse on the road.
"Eh, don't leave me, I don't want to spend the night with snakes!"
Qing He also stood up and followed on tiptoe.
"This mama, I have feet, not a dirty thing! Look! β
Qinghe naturally knew what this Mama Lin thought of her, so she put on a smile as much as possible to dispel the frustration of this body, and lifted the skirt with water droplets as she spoke, and gave Mama Lin a circle.
"Ha, yes, let's take her." The second lady smiled and took Qing He's hand.
"This ....." Mama Lin was still hesitating
It stands to reason that no matter whether the woman is a human or a ghost, it is always inappropriate to greet a strange woman in the middle of the night. It's no wonder that her mother-in-law is not sympathetic, it's really her young lady's status, so she doesn't dare to take care of it.
But before she could say anything, Qinghe was taken into the carriage by the second lady.
Mama Lin didn't say anything more in the end, and compassion overcame defense.
It seems that the effect of Qinghe's behaving is still very good.
"Now, my sister will put on it first, don't hurt the cold."
The second lady sitting in the car handed Qinghe a coat.
Qinghe stretched out his hand to take it and thanked him.
"By the way, young lady, how did you fall overboard?"
"Enemies seek revenge." Qinghe didn't plan to explain too much, and he wasn't very familiar with the other party, so it would be appropriate to summarize it like this.
How long has she been here? How many do you know her? Who could kill her?
One toe counts it all.
"How can you get into trouble? Are you from the rivers and lakes? When the second lady asked this, her face was full of yearning.
Isn't this young lady too naΓ―ve and romantic? Isn't it time to think about how to fight at home? How can the mind be full of happiness and hatred?
"Because...... Belch...... I have a bit of a headache. Xu has just entered the water......" pinched his eyebrows, indicating that he couldn't answer for the time being.
"Huh? That sister quickly close her eyes and recuperate. I won't bother you yet. Come and talk to me when you're better. β
β......β
Talk? Qinghe is actually more afraid of talking to a woman who is too simple, after all, he has a stomach full of poisonous chicken soup, and he is afraid that he will stain other people's paper white.
The carriage suddenly stopped, and the coachman said from outside the car: "Miss, when you arrive at the city gate, it seems that there are three checkpoints, and it may take some time to pass the customs." β
"Strange, what's wrong tonight? I don't usually do it so strictly. The second lady lifted the curtain of the car and wanted to see the situation outside.
"Have you arrived at the gates?" Qinghe, who was pretending to be dead, also opened her eyes at the same time, she should get out of the car to find Qiaoxiu, so as not to be frightened by Qiaoxiu.
"Now that I've reached the level, it's time for me to leave."
"Sister, where are you going? I'll just send you back. β
"No, the place I'm going to is called Jianghu, and it's inconvenient for Miss to send me off." Qinghe picked the feeling that the other party liked to hear.
I was so surprised by these words that I gasped, and sure enough, this kind of sentence with the breath of the second middle lady was in the arms of the second lady.
"The second lady will help you today, and I Qinghe will repay you in the future." Enough polite words.
I got out of the car and drove, took off my shirt and returned to the second lady, and made a fist hug salute full of Jianghu flavor.
This set of actions can't help but be heroic, seeing that the other party is tears in his eyes, his blood is boiling, and he waved a handkerchief to say goodbye to her.
"Sister Qinghe, I am Jiang Sujiu in Jiang Xiangfu, remember to take me to see the rivers and lakes when you have time!"
The dashing back of going to the city gate alone suddenly stumbled, and it seemed that he had no chance to repay the favor.
"Jiang Su Jiu ......"
These two young ladies are actually the second young ladies of Jiang Fu...... Xuanjiu Sujiu, it sounds like a sister-in-law, my sister is a rival in love, and my sister can be a friend?
After living for tens of thousands of years, I finally wanted to have a friend, and the other party was actually the sister of my rival.
She didn't have love, she didn't have friendship, and she felt that she might be fated to ......
She also wants to calculate a hexagram for herself, but she was born and raised, and no one knows her eight characters......
"Alas" shook his head regretfully, let's find Qiaoxiu first, it's also a companion.
At this time, the city gate was bustling, and the soldiers on the city tower added several posts, and the torch in their hands was blazing, showing a solemn look on their faces.
The city tower is crowded with people, and three checkpoints are set up in front of the door to block pedestrians, vehicles and horses who want to leave the city.
Outside the door are basically the women who have just returned from going to Baihu to put the lights on the lights, and they are lining up to be checked at three checkpoints.
What's going on?
When he just went out of the city, he still sang and danced to improve his appearance, and when he came back, he was under martial law? Because Qinghe fell into the water?
"Did you just see that?"
"It's terrible, it's ...... drowning"
"Don't say it, it's still late, and I'm not afraid of bad luck!"
