Chapter 21: Mysterious Red Light
(a)
Ten days have passed.
Bai Hua is used to serving tea and reading books every day according to the custom. The only thing that has grown in ten days is not to stay in bed.
Listening to the rain pavilion, Bai Hua took the tea tray and stood aside respectfully.
"You're boiling?" Netherworld stiffened and placed the teacup on the table, with a few lifeless tea leaves floating in the cup. I have been looking at this bamboo slip for ten days, and the level of making tea is still... There is no growth.
Tightening the tea tray in his hand, Bai Hua looked down at the cup of tea soup that turned yellow on the table, "I boiled it when I was ugly, and I brought it over as soon as it was brewed." ”
Netherworld wondered, "How long does it take to get here from the teahouse?"
Bai Hua bit his lip that was a little white, and replied in a low voice, "I'm lost again." ”
The dark was puzzled, "You have lived for more than ten days, and you will get lost?"
As he spoke, Bai Hua's head hung deeper.
In fact, I didn't go wrong on the road, but I was scared by a flower halfway. However, that flower is none other than Yimi, who almost burped herself last time. This sudden flower pot stood in the middle of the path against the backlight, and Bai Hua's hands trembled unconsciously. The tea bowl was so broken that I had to go back to the tea house and make a new cup.
"What? I'm sorry to say?" Seeing that she was silent, the Netherworld was very interested.
Bai Hua was really embarrassed, and he couldn't tell him: when he came, he was stupid by a flower.
There was a gleam in his eyes, and when he saw her standing like a stone statue, Netherworld immediately got up with a teacup and walked towards her.
Bai Hua raised his head when he heard the sound, and saw that the distance between the two was gradually getting closer, and he couldn't stop taking a few steps back. Seeing this, the ghost moved a few steps forward, and Bai Hua followed a few steps back, and the two of them seemed to have reached the door.
"Are you afraid of me?" the Netherworld stopped.
"Not really!" Bai Hua replied with a crisp face, but in fact, he had already wrapped the tea tray around his chest.
"Then why do you keep backing away?" The speech is empty, and it is a steady forward.
Bai Hua's eyes widened and he saw that there was no way out, so he simply tiptoed to the door frame, "I, I don't like to talk too closely." ”
This distance can't be described as too close at all, and the two of them are almost going to stick together. Bai Hua wanted to move aside, but at this time, the white jade teacup was horizontal in front of him.
"The tea temperature is the first of the three books of tea, and then go back and make the bamboo slips for boiling tea more thoroughly. ”
Mu Ran took the teacup, Bai Hua nodded and hurriedly responded, turned around and was about to run out. However, the threshold of this attic was also too high, and Bai Hua stumbled and threw himself out with a teacup.
Hearing only a clang, the white jade teacup was sacrificed so heroically.
This is the thirty-second teacup, right? This must be the death of the heavens! Bai Hua twitched the corners of his eyes, crawled on the ground and looked at the half of the tea lid that was still playing in circles, and once burst into tears.
At the same time, a slender hand appeared in front of him. As soon as this move came out, a warm current suddenly poured out of the originally cold heart. When this plain white little hand was about to stretch out half, I heard the owner of this slender hand say coldly: "Give me the tea tray, this is made of good ebony, it can't be bad." ”
Bai Hua was embarrassed, how she wished there was a hole for herself to get into at this moment. But the next moment, she still chose to get up strongly, and handed the tea tray in her arms to Netherworld.
"Xiaobai, it's been ten days, but what do you remember?" Netherworld took the tea tray and looked carefully left and right. After a while, no one answered, so he looked forward and saw that in addition to a fragment of white jade in the courtyard, there was still her figure.
The lotus flowers in the pool were fragrant with the wind, and the corners of the ghost's mouth hooked a trace of unknown truth, and the ground was fleeting.
It seems that she prefers to read more bamboo slips. With that, he turned and went back to the attic.

After handing out the tea tray, Bai Hua turned around and ran wildly all the way, out of the courtyard and without stopping through the green forest, several twists and turns, and turned in front of an open stone cave door. Seeing that no one was following behind him, Bai Hua took a long breath and sat down on the stone steps, "It's a shame." ”
Bai Hua rubbed his aching knees and sat on the stone steps at the entrance of the cave for a long time before he remembered to look around, compared to the places in front of him where the birds and flowers were fragrant and the vegetation was lush, this place was clean... There is only a stone cave.
"Bai Hua~" At this time, an ethereal voice accompanied by red light came out of the cave. Bai Hua rose to his feet and looked into the cave, "Who?
"Bai Hua~" The voice suddenly became thick and powerful, and the red light was even more intense. Bai Hua's eyes were stabbed by the strong light, and then he raised his hand to block it, "Who is it?"
As soon as the words fell, the red light came towards Bai Hua and turned into a red rope that tightly wound her. Just for a moment, Bai Hua was pulled into the cave again.
"Who the hell are you?" Bai Hua's whole body seemed to be hanging in the air with red light, his body was completely immobile, and only a pair of feet were still struggling desperately.
Another red light emitted from the air, and this light turned into a blood-colored pillar of light in an instant, hitting Bai Hua directly. I felt that my throat was hot, Bai Hua spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then rolled his eyes and fainted.
The unconscious person was still floating in the air, but the red light that surrounded her slowly dispersed, and then disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, a few wisps of red mist slowly drifted out of a brocade box on the table. I saw that the red mist gradually gathered and condensed into a wandering human form. The erratic human figure was also floating in the air, looking at the unconscious person. The brocade box on the side suddenly emitted a faint golden light, and then it shook slightly.
The hazy figure moved in front of Bai Hua, and stretched out an almost transparent right hand to caress the cinnabar mole in the corner of her eye. The candle flame in the cave swayed in the wind, and the light swayed with it. There seemed to be a demonic smile on his blurred face, "Bai Hua, I've finally waited for you." As soon as these words came out, the brocade box began to vibrate violently, and there was a knocking sound, and the golden light emitted became brighter and brighter.
The figure standing beside Bai Hua looked back at the brocade box on the side, and unhurriedly put his hand on her pale little face, "Bai Hua, you have to wait for me." ”
After speaking, the hazy figure withdrew his hand, turned around, and slowly turned into a wisp of red mist and drilled back into the brocade box. Suddenly, the brocade box stopped shaking, and then the lid of the box opened automatically, and the gold beads in the box flew out with a strong light.
The golden bead hovered around Bai Hua with a strong light, and I saw that the aura in Bai Hua's body continued to gush out from his chest, and the golden bead floating in the air sucked up all the white aura that gushed out.
The originally pale little face was now so weak that it was completely bloodless. The continuous loss of aura in her body made her snort in pain. However, the lover's silk tied to her left hand also emitted a faint red light...
