Volume 2, From the Beginning Chapter 033, Jin Qiaoqiao
"Sister, are you alright?" asked Zhen'er as she immediately stepped forward and took Miss Jin's hand.
"I'm fine, little sister, thank you! Thank you even more, little boy!"
The girl said and waved her hand at Li Bingtong.
Li Bingtong said: "Sister, you don't have to be polite. Although we have the heart to see the grievances on the road, but unfortunately the kung fu is low, and we only sneak up two handfuls and make trouble, and it doesn't help you much. β
"Little boy, if you hadn't fought hard to attack the shrimp guard and boxed Long Qishao, I would have been taken captive by them. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! This little sister took the opportunity to unlock my acupuncture hole, and later I was able to defend myself. Today's events, now I think about it, I am afraid in my heart, I met you, this is really my luck. β
"You saved me, if it weren't for your button, I would have been hacked to death. Li Bingtong said with a smile.
"I didn't pop that button. β
"Isn't it really you, sister?" asked Li Bingtong rhetorically.
"It's not me!"
"Who is that?" Li Bingtong said to himself.
Miss Jin hurriedly saluted and shouted in a coquettish voice, "Which hero helped us just now?" Can you give us a chance to thank you in person?...... Who helped ...... just now?"
The shouts were crisp and loud, and everyone was discussing, but no one responded.
"Strange, sister, look, everyone is rushing to this side, and only one man in Tsing Yi hurriedly retreats out?"
When the golden girl heard this, she jumped on top of the stone lion, looked up, and saw a familiar figure in Tsing Yi walking away. "Senior Brother Qingtian, is that you?Senior Brother Qingtian, is it you?......" she hurriedly shouted. It's a pity that the people in Tsing Yi just didn't hear it, and they gradually drifted away, and in the blink of an eye, they were drowned in the crowded crowd. She had no choice but to jump off in a wrenched manner.
"Sister, do you know that man in Tsing Yi?" asked the girl Zhen'er.
"I looked at his back and the way he walked, and I remembered an old man, but it was too far away for sure. β
"Sister, what's your name, where is your name? I haven't had time to ask you yet?" Zhen'er jumped down and asked Miss Jin softly.
"My surname is Jin Qiaoqiao, my family lives in Fengluo Town, two hundred miles away in the southeast, there are only me and my father in the family, I make a living by raising silkworms and weaving, and my neighbors call me 'Weaver Girl'. It's just that in the past three years, natural disasters have continued, and the silkworms have not been collected, and they owe a lot of debts, I think you heard it just now, the person named Long Qishao said something, but I really don't know, the force behind the rich man of Sangtian is actually their Dragon Palace. My father and I have been here for almost two years, and we have been living here for the time being to make some umbrellas to sell, exchange some silver and copper coins to support our family, and save some savings to pay off our debts. I didn't expect to run into this kind of disaster today, thank you for the little boy and the little sister who came to the rescue. β
"Sister, how did you learn to cultivate your amazing kung fu and cultivation, and that powerful spell?" asked Zhen'er curiously.
"I really don't dare to deceive the two little benefactors, I just realized it before I started, it turns out that I still know some exercises. In fact, before you explained the acupoints to me, my 'Shenmen' acupoints had always been sealed, which sealed my mind and memory. When you solved the acupoint for me just now, you inadvertently unlocked my long-sealed 'Divine Gate' acupoint, which only then unlocked my long-sealed divine sense. I woke up from my stunned memory, and then I realized that I had come to this Fengluo Town to survive the 'Heavenly Tribulation'. Many years ago, I was originally a cultivator who practiced martial arts and swords, learned the law and realized the Tao on Ziyang Mountain in the West, and suddenly fainted in the mulberry forest outside Fengluo Town in the East China Sea one day a few years ago. Many of these past events in the past, like dreams, were all suddenly opened after clicking on the divine sense, and then they slowly recalled. β
"I see. β
Zhen'er suddenly realized, it turned out that she was carrying miraculous skills, but she didn't notice anything, no wonder she was carrying land debts but couldn't do anything, and it was still difficult to fight when she was bullied, it turned out that before her "divine gate" was opened, she was a weak woman in the countryside who couldn't be more ordinary.
Li Bingtong said: "Sister, don't call a 'little boy' a 'benefactor' anymore, we are really not used to it." My name is Li Bingtong, and her name is Bai Suzhen. We all call you sister, you can call me Tong'er and call her Zhen'er, or call your younger brother and sister. β
"That's good! Brother Tong'er, Sister Zhen'er, thank you both!"
Li Bingtong stared at her and said, "Don't say thank you again! Sister! Your cultivation is really good, andββ"
"And what?
Looking at the slim Qiaoqiao sister in front of me, I saw her black hair and cloud bun, red shirt and xia clothes, red lips and teeth, white and red skin, beautiful eyebrows and bright eyes, and her eyes were as clear as autumn water. It's just that because of the fierce battle just now, his face is still a little flushed, his face and neck are overflowing with sweat, and the whole person looks like a morning flower with autumn dew, full of flowers and autumn rain. Li Bingtong's heart that opened at the beginning of his youth couldn't help but stir.
"Noβit's nothing, sister, you're so beautiful!" Li Bingtong exclaimed, "No wonder that Long Qishao has been chasing after you?"
Jin Qiaoqiao smiled in her heart, seeing that he was not deceitful, and her heart was beautiful when she heard it.
"I've never seen a sister as beautiful as you. Zhen'er said, plucking a crystal clear jasper hairpin from her head. "Sister, this hosta is made of rare jade on Yaoguang Mountain, which is worth two or three hundred taels of silver, so sister can use it to pay off debts." β
"I can't ask for this!little sister!" Jin Qiaoqiao hurriedly pushed.
"Oh! I forgot! Since you are so strong in your exercises, you may not be short of silver in the future. Zhen'er suddenly understood, and her hand returned.
"That's not what it means. I'm here to survive the 'Heavenly Tribulation' now, and those who survive the Tribulation can't use the Divine Skill Dao Method, otherwise, it will be difficult to rob the sea. β
"Then ...... you today?" Li Bingtong asked anxiously.
"Today is after the divine consciousness was opened, I inadvertently used it for temporary rescue, and it is purely to save people and self-defense, although it will also affect my tribulation, and it will prolong the life of the 'heavenly tribulation', but it is estimated that it will not affect too much. However, I will never be able to use the exercises again. β
"Then what should Long Qishao do if he goes to trouble you again? And your family still owes him so much land rent?" Li Bingtong asked worriedly.
"I'm worried about this too!" Jin Qiaoqiao pondered, "I have to find a way to pay off the arrears of their land rent quickly, and then change places to avoid him and the people of the Dragon Palace." β
"Sister, I have a solution. Li Bingtong said calmly.
"Brother, speak quickly. β
"If you take this hosta and convert it into silver taels, won't you be able to pay off the debt?"
"I can't take this. β
"What's wrong? Is this against my sister's 'heavenly calamity'?" asked Zhen'er.
"This will not be violated, as long as it is not obtained by me by stealing and abducting, and it is not exchanged for my magic weapon and miraculous skills, it will not violate the 'Heavenly Tribulation'. β
"In that case, we both recognize you as a sister, and if you don't accept it, you will be out of sight. Li Bingtong said next to him.
"I really can't accept such a precious hosta. β
"Sister, you see that this hairpin is more valuable, but it can be placed in the Hou Mansion, that is, ordinary things, today we went out to play, and we went out in a hurry, and we didn't bring any silver, this hairpin is a little bit of care between me and Tong'er's brother, you can take it!" Zhen'er begged.
"Sister, if you push it back, Sister Zhen'er will cry. Li Bingtong smiled as he spoke, winked at Zhen'er, and grimaced.
"Okay! If I don't accept it, it will be disrespectful, so my sister will accept it. Jin Qiaoqiao saw that he couldn't push it off, so he had to accept it first. "Today I met a pair of younger brothers and sisters of the golden boy and girl, which really makes me happy and a rare opportunity. I live in the small courtyard at the back of this street, how about my sister invite my younger siblings to sit and rest for a while?"
"Okay!"
The two agreed, but they spoke in unison, which made Jin Qiaoqiao's heartstrings move involuntarily.
Li Bingtong heard Jin Qiaoqiao call them "Golden Boy and Jade Girl", and naturally knew the unique meaning of this word, so he couldn't help blushing slightly, and raised his eyes to look at Zhen'er girl, but saw that Zhen'er was also looking at herself with a red face. Looking at each other, the two little faces suddenly became redder, and they hurriedly turned their heads away, but they all fell into Jin Qiaoqiao's eyes.
Li Bingtong came to the rescue of an umbrella girl, although he happened to catch up with such a thing, but his jealousy and hatred and bold superhuman nature deeply moved Jin Qiaoqiao. Zhen'er's acupoint relief allowed her to recover her consciousness, and she was able to use exercises to defeat Long Qishao, which saved her from a catastrophe, and when she calmed down and thought about it, it was also the will of heaven to help her survive the catastrophe. The two of them gave the hairpin as silver, not because they admired her profound skills at all, but because of their pure nature and compassion. Coupled with the fact that the two of them are young and simple, innocent, these made her feel very happy in her heart, and she felt a rare good fate in her life journey. But the back of the man in Tsing Yi who disappeared in a hurry suddenly hooked up the sorrow that she had accumulated in her heart for 30 years, and couldn't help but be like a quiet spring, the past is like a dream, true love is like the wind, and the mountains and seas are especially there, but it is a pity that this body is difficult to achieve. There are people who are worried in their hearts, but they can only lock their hearts deeply, and they can't talk to others, and who can they talk to?
The three of them put away the stall together, each carrying something and turning into the small alley in the street, and walked there in less than a quarter of an hour.
A small courtyard with white walls and blue tiles. There are three main rooms facing south in the north and two rooms in the west wing. The yard is full of flowers, plants and fruit trees, which can be described as full of greenery, especially the two moon-season trees with full eaves at the entrance of the main house, which are full of fiery red moonflowers.
Entering the living room in the middle of the main room, there was an embroidered picture scroll of Qi refining and cultivating truth on the wall, and the upper right corner of the scroll was embroidered with a line of black seal characters of "Ziyang Xiuzhen Map". But in the painting, I saw that the green mountains were like daisies, and the clear streams were like silk; a man and a woman, two cultivators in their twenties and thirties, dressed in white clothes fluttering, like gods and immortals; they sat sideways on the left and right, with their hands folded on their chests, and they were exercising their pranayama, and their hearts were silent; between the two people, in the inner layer of the painting, a little girl in red with two round hair buns was lying on a slanting ochre purple tree pole, holding her cheeks with both hands, and her eyes were like pearls, and she was watching them practice with a pretty look. The whole brocade scroll, the embroidery is delicate and delicate, the three figures are lifelike, and the demeanor is vivid and realistic.
"This is a silk brocade scroll that I embroidered when I was free. Jin Qiaoqiao explained softly.
Li Bingtong and Bai Suzhen were immediately attracted by this picture-like thorn show, and stood there stupidly for a long time. "It turns out that cultivation is so beautiful!" Li Bingtong muttered to himself in his heart.
"I guess this must be a family!"
The three of them were interrupted by Bai Suzhen's soft and happy children's voice.
"That's right. Jin Qiaoqiao said softly. She also seems to be in a fool's mind, wandering in the picture.
"What a fairyland!" Li Bingtong sighed.
"It's a pity that there aren't anymore. Jin Qiaoqiao said faintly.
After all, the two are still children, and they don't know how to answer for a while.
"Let's try the juice made by my sister first! Jin Qiaoqiao forked the topic.
Tong'er and Zhen'er sat on a long wicker chair by the west wall, with a solid wood coffee table in front of them. On the opposite gable there was a green rope with a few splendid weaving clothes and a few colorful fairy umbrellas hanging on it.
"This green bottle is grass fresh green juice, and this pink bottle is flower fresh red kernel juice, which one do you drink?"
"I have a good day today!" Li Bingtong smiled and shouted softly, "Then try it all." β
Jin Qiaoqiao poured a cup of cyan for each person first. Zhen'er took a small sip, and it was really fragrant and refreshing.
"Brother Tong'er, sister Zhen'er, you two drink and rest for a while, and I'll go to the West Wing to find something. β
As soon as Jin Qiaoqiao walked out, Li Bingtong picked up the porcelain cup like white jade and drank it bitterly, shouting vigorously in his mouth: "It's delicious! It's delicious! Zhen'er, what are you still showing off? Drink it quickly!" Then he opened the powder bottle and poured a full glass, but it was fragrant, and he drank it in one gulp.
"You know what? Good things have to be tasted slowly. Zhen'er took a sip as she swirled the white porcelain cup in her hand.
