Just a few steps, in a blink of an eye, Li Xiaoqi got off the sedan chair in the second gate, the palace people in the courtyard stood respectfully, Shui Yanxiao let Li Xiaoyi, and she followed behind Su Zicheng side by side, along the extremely clean rough bluestone road, into a flower hall with carved beams and paintings, the flower hall is huge, as soon as you enter the door, the heat is coming, Su Zicheng is in front, straight through the flower hall, to the flower hall.

Li Xiaoqi stood beside Su Zicheng, looking at the opposite side of the near, almost vertical cliffs dotted with dots, clusters of bright yellow wild chrysanthemums and white flowers and blue leaves of the blue grass, lined with blue and black vicissitudes of the towering cliffs, more and more vibrant, delicate and bright, in some places, chrysanthemums and orchids are born together, wild chrysanthemums are spicy and unrestrained, reflecting the indifference of the orchid grass, but also revealing a strange beauty, the morning glow through the mountain stream, shining on the cliff wall, the hideous face of the mountain stone is indifferent to the warmth, but the chrysanthemum on the mountain stone is excited to stretch her body, With the help of the mountain breeze to show non-stop, wantonly showing full of vitality, Li Xiaoqi held his breath, staring at those small and beautiful mountain flowers, their vitality is so intense, so strong that it is suffocating, as if as long as they are willing, in the blink of an eye, they can spread the mountain into a sea of bright yellow and green, full of mountains and valleys, are their jumping joy. Li Xiaoqi subconsciously stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to caress those festive and jumping lives, Su Zicheng looked at her and laughed: "This cliff looks close, and it is dozens of feet away, how can you get it." ”

Li Xiaoqi withdrew his hand, exhaled and exclaimed: "This wild chrysanthemum is really moving!" Su Zicheng turned his head to look at the cliff, Shui Yan said with a smile: "If you want to see the chrysanthemum, get the wild chrysanthemum cliff, see the best place to see the wild chrysanthemum cliff Yunmian Residence, it is the one where you live, the chrysanthemum is opposite the Juyin Hall at the back of Yunmian Ju is the wild chrysanthemum cliff, the chrysanthemum blooms all over the mountain, and it is very spectacular." ”

"I went to see it there yesterday, it's not as good as here, it's too full, it's so full that it almost overflows, this flower and a painting is a reason, there must be a blank space, and it's best to leave enough blank space for the flower viewer to rest his eyes and think." Li Xiaoqi said with a smile, Shui Yan patted the folding fan in his hand and exclaimed: "I'll just say, you are an elegant person!" Su Zicheng glanced at him, walked slowly to the side with his hands behind his back, Shui Yan hurriedly asked Li Xiaoyi: "Let's look over there, there are a few bushes of bluegrass in that place, which can be painted!" ”

The three of them walked more than ten steps, turned half a corner, and arrived at the other side of the cliff, this cliff is smooth and almost mirror, several narrow cracks or horizontal or vertical tear open the mirror, in the gaps, a few bushes of bluegrass gush out, the slender leaves are thousands of graces, and the young white flowers dance with the wind, compared to the wild chrysanthemums that are as gorgeous as fire, there is a quiet and elegant beauty. The three of them quietly looked up at the orchids that bloomed lonely in the cliffs, and after a while, Shui Yan sighed softly: "I haven't been here for a few years, but these orchids have grown better." Su Zicheng put his hands behind his back, motionless and looked up at the orchids, Li Xiaoqi glanced at Su Zicheng who was standing like a stone statue, turned his head to look at Shui Yan, Shui Yan motioned to Li Xiaoqi to silence, Li Xiaoqi quietly took two steps back, and stood in a place with Shui Yan, after a while, Su Zicheng moved, took half a step back, turned around, and said in a low voice with a sigh: "Go to the flower hall and sit and watch, it's cold here." ”

Li Xiaoqi wrapped his cloak tightly, and immediately nodded in agreement: "The wind here is too strong, and it makes people's bones cold." ”

The three of them turned into the flower hall, Li Xiaoqi took off the cold cloak, turned his head to look around, the flower hall was huge, the south side was coiled with the kang, and the north side was placed with a huge couch, between the couch and the kang, there were several comfortable armchairs, the kang, the couch, and the chairs were scattered and placed with all kinds of flower stands, all of which were dark and heavy rosewood, and the flower stands, kang tables, couch tables or flowers and plants, or antique jade decorations, the house was full of luxury, Li Xiaoqi stood for a moment, only to feel that bursts of warmth poured up from under his feet and between the skirts, and the fire dragon was also paved underground, No wonder it's so warm with the windows open.

Li Xiaoqi sat on the other side of Su Zicheng, took a sip of hot tea, and sighed comfortably, Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoqi whose cheeks were frozen crimson, his lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something but swallowed back, Shui Yan looked at Su Zicheng, his heart flickered, he lowered his head and drank two sips of tea, put down the cup, and said with annoyance: "I almost forgot, the seventh sister asked me to bring two cans of tea powder to her, she entertained guests, I forgot it cleanly, it's really damned!" As he spoke, he stood up, arched his hand and said, "I have to send it over quickly, I will be entrusted by others, loyal to people, and I will come back in a while, and wait for me!" With that, he said goodbye with an apologetic smile, and hurriedly walked out of the door with his long shirt.

Su Zicheng shook his head with a smile, Li Xiaoqi looked at Shui Yan's back suspiciously, and after thinking about it quickly for a moment, he was indifferent, put down the cup, stood up and turned to the open window, looking at the jumping bright yellow on the opposite side. Su Zicheng also put down the cup and stood up, paced behind Li Xiaoyi, followed Li Xiaoyi's gaze at the wild chrysanthemum, retracted his gaze, and condescendingly looked at Li Xiaoqi who could see the gods, her hair was thin and soft, as if there was a flowing luster, a few strands of hair fell between the white and soft neck, Su Zicheng's heart crossed a strange ripple, he had never noticed that a woman's neck was so •••••• attractive!

The mountain wind blew into the window, blowing Li Xiaoyi's chill again, and he stepped back with his arms in a cold voice, but stepped on Su Zicheng's feet, Su Zicheng hurriedly reached out to support Li Xiaoqi who was rushing forward, Li Xiaoqi stood firm, turned around and looked down at Su Zicheng's shoes, at the door of the flower hall, Nanning was about to run out to get shoes, but saw Su Zicheng stomping his feet, talking to Li Xiaoqi casually, Dongping waved his hand at Nanning, the two took half a step back to the side, and continued to stand motionless.

Li Xiaoqi quietly stepped aside half a step, let go of Su Zicheng's arms, pointed to the cliff and said with a smile: "I remember reading a lot of poems about chrysanthemums in the past, and I miss two sentences for the occasion at this time, but I can't remember a single one." ”

Su Zicheng laughed out loud, laughed for a while, and then couldn't help but smile and said, "Whose poems have you read?" Tell me, I'll think for you. Li Xiaoqi withdrew her fingers and smiled wryly, she has been struggling to survive since she came to this world, she has been struggling to survive, she has fewer books when she reads, and even fewer books she can find. Su Zicheng looked down at her, waited for a moment before saying with a smile: "If you talk about poetry, Mr. Liang is the most proficient, when he comes back, you can ask him for advice and ask him to pick a few books for you to read." Li Xiaoqi nodded hurriedly, this is a good thing, no matter what you learn, someone will guide you to get twice the result with half the effort, Su Zicheng paused, as if he remembered something, looked at Li Xiaoqi and asked: "When you mentioned this poem, I just remembered something, did you send a couplet to Mr. Liang?" ”

"Huh?" Li Xiaoqi didn't think about it for a while, and was about to deny it, when he suddenly remembered that he had escaped from the Taiping Mansion that year, and he shook his head half and hurriedly went down again: "Yes, it was sent." ”

"If you have a heart for good, although you are good and not rewarded, if you have no intention of evil, although you are not punished?"

"Yes." Li Xiaoqi replied simply, Su Zicheng frowned, and asked suspiciously, "This is your own connection?" Or where did you see it from? Mr. Liang is very knowledgeable, almost no books and no reading, he said that he has never seen this couplet, write to me, I took it to the Hanlin Academy, no one has seen it, I heard that you saw it when you traveled to the Hades Palace, where is the Hades Palace? ”

Li Xiaoqi hung his head, his toes were scratching around on the ground, and he quickly turned his mind, this matter, there are many things, there must be a statement, a specious statement, this god and ghost thing, he can come, who can say for sure? Well, that's it, true and false, false and true, whether it is true or false is up to him to think, Li Xiaoqi made up his mind, looked up at Su Zicheng, biting his lip with a face full of confusion and confusion, she stayed in the blue and cold sea, how did she get here? She couldn't figure it out anyway, and maybe, it could only be attributed to the way of gods and ghosts.

Su Zicheng looked at the confusion on Li Xiaoyi's face, subconsciously raised his hand to smooth her out, lifted it halfway, and forced it back to his back, Li Xiaoyi lowered his head, looked at the butterfly on the tip of his shoe that seemed to be about to fly, and said in a low voice: "I don't know what's going on, and I don't know where it is, maybe it's the Hades Palace, I'll treat it as the Hades Palace." ”

Su Zicheng didn't understand, Li Xiaoqi looked up at Su Zicheng, and explained in confusion: "The eldest brother said that on the night that Lijia Village was suppressed, I was injured and fainted to death, and I have been in a coma for more than ten days, and then one night, in a broken temple, it was snowing, lightning and thunder, I suddenly woke up, but ••••••" Li Xiaoyi's tongue was knotted, gently pulled Su Zicheng's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "I don't know how to say it, I don't know what's going on, I always want to forget it, I just can't forget it, I never dared to say it, Even the eldest brother didn't dare to say it. Su Zicheng stretched out his hand and pressed Li Xiaoyi's shoulder, and said gently: "Don't be afraid, with me, it's all over." ”

"Well, I saw my father and mother falling, covered in blood, and later, I don't know where I went, and I don't know ••••••" Li Xiaoqi looked up at Su Zicheng, as if he didn't know how to describe it, and was confused for a moment before he continued: "I can't see, I can't hear, I can't smell, but sometimes I don't know how to know a lot ••••••of things, just like this," Li Xiaoqi pressed his hand on Su Zicheng's hand, looked up at him and said, "You close your eyes, can you feel something?" ”

Su Zicheng turned his hand and shook Li Xiaoyi's hand, closed his eyes and was silent for a moment before opening his eyes, and said softly: "It's very warm." ”

"Well," Li Xiaoqi pulled out his hand with a little force: "That's it, I don't know anything, but I can feel a lot of things, including that couplet, there, it seems that many years have passed, the sky is old and the earth is old, the sun and the moon are vicissitudes, and later, like a dream, I suddenly woke up, I didn't dare to say it, I never dared to mention it, for fear that people would say that I was talking nonsense and treat me as a monster." ”
