Chapter 16 It's better to be stupid
“......”
Li Shangqing felt that he had heard it wrong, where was the cold woman in green just now? Why did she become so skinny all of a sudden?
"Then I'll tell you a story. Ye Qingyao looked at Li Shangqing, who was stunned, and said softly.
Li Shangqing was just about to say something but was interrupted by Ye Qingyao, Ye Qingyao pursed her lips, tears rolling in her eyes: "When I finish speaking, I'll tell you if I want to join, okay?"
Looking at Ye Qingyao's pitiful eyes, Li Shangqing felt that if he didn't listen to her, he would have a troubled conscience.
Li Shangqing swallowed his saliva and obediently closed his mouth, Ye Qingyao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw this scene, and the pink star in her mind also stopped turning.
"It seems that the stars in my head are still working. Ye Qingyao said secretly in her heart.
After the change in her body, Ye Qingyao always wanted to test the stars in her mind to confirm whether it could still be used.
After all, if it is not easy to use, you need to eat the pill given by the woman in green, there are three pills, Ye Qingyao remembered the smile of the woman in green, and her white little hand just stretched out the jade bottle from the cuff and put it back.
Now is not the time to reveal your identity. Ye Qingyao looked at Li Shangqing's face, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart: How could it be so coincidental?
It always felt like something was wrong. Ye Qingyao was a little uneasy in her heart, and always felt that there was a pair of invisible big hands behind her to promote the development of these things, so that these coincidences were connected together. It's as if someone is laying out the layout, and you are at the center of the layout.
"Judging from the current state, there should be no problem with the stars. Ye Qingyao rubbed her eyebrows: Xingchen has no problem, he has an extra hole card to save his life, he actually has a guess in his heart, but he is not sure, and he needs facts to prove his inner guess.
"I hope it's not the way I thought. Ye Qingyao sighed secretly, feeling inexplicably depressed.
"The prelude to the coming storm. Ye Qingyao's face was cloudy, and even the eyes that looked at Li Shangqing were a little strange.
Li Shangqing may be the breakthrough in this matter. Ye Qingyao looked at Li Shangqing, although she couldn't notice anything unusual, she couldn't affect the guess in Ye Qingyao's heart.
"Let's get to the bottom of it first. Ye Qingyao put away the token given by Dao Xu, and said with a smile: "This story is about a person. ”
Li Shangqing felt a pain in his chest, and the suppressed feeling spread throughout his body: this story must be about her days with that unknown man. Angina pectoris, angina.
Ye Qingyao couldn't help but feel a little puzzled when she saw Li Shangqing's face suddenly turn pale, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
"Could it be that he is sick?" Ye Qingyao looked at Li Shangqing, who was like a serious illness, and added another label to Li Shangqing in her heart.
"In broad daylight, I haven't sweated yet, you're sweating? Alas, young people nowadays are really weak. Ye Qingyao sighed secretly in her heart.
Ye Qingyao walked under the plaque of the City Lord's Mansion and smiled lightly: "The story is very short, you hold on a little longer." ”
Li Shangqing's chest rose and fell, and after closing his eyes for a moment, the beads of sweat on his forehead subsided, and his face became ruddy.
Ye Qingyao turned his back to Li Shangqing, looked at the pavilion in the depths of the City Lord's Mansion, and said: "Once upon a time, there was a strong man, he felt that he was invincible in the world, and nothing could escape his control, but in the end he died. ”
"Old and dead?" Li Shangqing looked at Ye Qingyao's back and couldn't help asking.
"No, no, no, he's smart to death. Ye Qingyao said lightly.
How is it possible, Li Shangqing was stunned, and his heart was cold: yes, yes, he died smartly, he felt that there was nothing to escape his control, and he repeatedly checked every day to see if there was anything that escaped from his control, and he became ill from hard work, and finally died.
Ye Qingyao turned her head, looked at Li Shangqing with a smile, and said, "So, it's better to be stupid." With that, he waved his sleeves and stepped into the City Lord's Mansion.
Li Shangqing's heart was shocked, and the moment Ye Qingyao looked back, Li Shangqing felt that he had been seen through, and any secrets seemed to have nowhere to hide under those eyes.
Li Shangqing's heart sank: Maybe she knew what she was thinking, did she invite too quickly? Or was there something wrong?
Will she join or not join the Ethereal Immortal Palace? Li Shangqing couldn't help but be a little unwilling as she watched Ye Qingyao step into the City Lord's Mansion, and hurriedly asked, "Do you want to join the Ethereal Immortal Palace?"
"What do you say?" Ye Qingyao didn't look back, she walked dozens of steps in a blink of an eye, and was about to disappear.
"What's your name, then? Li Shangqing thought that after such a long time, he didn't even know the other party's name, and couldn't help shouting.
"Ye Qingyao. Ye Qingyao's figure paused slightly, and she replied without looking back.
"Ye Qingyao?" Li Shangqing gently read Ye Qingyao twice, and was about to chase forward.
"You can't go in. An old voice sounded from behind Li Shangqing, making him feel a tightness in his heart.
Li Shangqing turned her head stiffly, and an old man in tattered clothes stood in front of her, the old man was on a cane, trembling as if he might fall at any time.
If Ye Qingyao was here, she would definitely be surprised, because she had seen this old man, it was the beggar who gave the hairpin!
The only difference is that the old man's face is as gloomy as water, like a moving active volcano that will suddenly erupt at any time.
Li Shangqing stared at the old man deadly, feeling that his scalp was slightly numb: when did this old man come behind him, he didn't react at all.
Either he relaxed his vigilance just now, so that this old man had a chance. Or ......
Li Shangqing didn't dare to think about it, because looking at the posture of the lean old man, he should be an enemy with himself, if it was the second case, Li Shangqing felt that he could say goodbye to the world in advance.
Thinking of this, Li Shangqing secretly comforted himself in his heart: It shouldn't be so unlucky, and there shouldn't be a hidden strong person in the city.
Otherwise, the Great Elder would still be able to let himself come out to practice? Sending sub-questions is about to become sending propositions. Li Shangqing felt that something was wrong, this beggar-like old man had been staring at himself with his dead fish eyes, staring at himself a little panicked, a little creepy.
Finally, Li Shangqing couldn't stand the old man's gaze, took out a light blue long knife from the cloth bag on his waist, carried it on his shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Why doesn't Your Excellency let me in, you have to give me a reason." ”
"Reason?" the old man smiled, took out a hairpin from his arms, and pointed to Li Shangqing: "Take people's money and eliminate disasters for people." Your Excellency should not enter the City Lord's Mansion, lest you lose your own life. ”
"What if I say no?" Li Shangqing was furious, a sense of arrogance rose from the bottom of his heart, the sword gang on the light blue long knife appeared, and the placket of his clothes moved with the wind, like a sword god descending, which made people respectful.
"Then it's up to you. The lean old man said slowly.
