Chapter 42 The snow stops and the plum is hidden, and the ice is released and replaced
For no reason, early in the morning of this day, the snow suddenly stopped outside Taojiang City.
In these days when there is goose feathers and heavy snow, the plum blossoms in the plum garden outside Taojiang City are blooming one by one by this cold, as if they are attached to the soul of flowers.
There was a mysterious man who secretly ordered people to hire more than a dozen girls from poor families, and took advantage of the snow to collect the plum blossoms on the tree, put them in a jade bottle, and stored them in the cage.
Although there are many plum bones on the branches, there are more on this ground.
As soon as the wind blew, the fallen plums on the ground also fluttered up, mixed with the snow and flew away.
What a coincidence, the wind blew and stopped. At this time, more than a dozen clever women came and picked up the plum blossoms on the ground, put them on them, and put them in cloth bags. For a while, the plum blossoms in the plum garden were all cleaned up and pretended properly, and these girls and women also went home. The garden was silent again.
For the next nine days, every day at dawn, when the first sound of the rooster crowed, the snow outside the city stopped, and the girls and women rushed to harvest the plum blossoms, clothed in night and morning dew. When the first rays of sunlight shine through the clouds, these people immediately stop work to collect the boxes and go home.
When the girls and women returned home, the snow outside Taojiang City began to fall again.
Qixia Mountain outside Fenghua City is still beautiful.
Shi Lian carved a small white stone lion in his house, and he had carved several pairs. The stone lion is cute and cute, with different postures, cute and silly, and reveals a bit of arrogance. Shi Lian looked at his pairs of lions and was very satisfied.
She picked up another white stone and was about to start a new one, when a little child of the Sparrow Green Clan was hovering in the air, and when Shi Lian saw him, he said, "I know, you can go." ”
At this time, Cui Yao was looking for a white stone for his wife Shi Lian in Manqi Xia Mountain. He also saw a child of the Finch Green Clan.
The younger brother Qu Liu sensed his sister Qu Bing early in the morning, and was waiting at the gate of Qixia Mountain before the baby of the Finch Green Clan came to report the news.
When everyone received the news of Qu Bing's return from the children of the Bird Green Clan from Jing Kuling, they gradually gathered here at the mountain gate of Qixia Mountain, drinking tea and waiting together. But after a cup of tea, Quliu saw a pair of shadows approaching in the sky from a distance, and jumped up happily. The old man looked up, his old face smiling.
After a while, Qu Bing and Lu Dong landed on the ground, and the leaders of the Spirit Clan branch slowly smiled and gathered around.
Jing Kuxin said: Lu Dong, this guy, who went around and around, finally brought back Miss Qu Bing.
Xue Zhou and Feng Xiaoqi also smiled and looked at Lu Dong, the brother of the Sparrow Green Clan, and Xue Zhou greeted him with bad intentions: "Xiao Dongzi, I said why I disappeared for a long time, it turned out that I went to save people!" "We originally wanted to pick a good day to go, but it turned out that you kid took the lead!" Feng Xiaoqi joked to Lu Dong.
Tian Lili, the little princess of the Yiling Clan, rushed out from behind the crowd, knelt in front of Qu Bing and Jing Ku, lowered her head and did not speak.
Qu Liu saw Tian Lili kneeling like this, wanting to reach out to help, but felt that they should not be blocked, and it might be better to let them take this opportunity to explain clearly, so he withdrew his arm again.
Yun Fei was on the side, taking in Qu Liu's demeanor, she knew that Qu Liu cared about Tian Lili, and she also knew why he hesitated. She looked at it and sighed. This slight sigh was heard by the boy who looked at the fly, and there was something hidden in his eyes. Xun Fei didn't look back at him, only looked at Qu Bing and Tian Lili who was kneeling.
The people standing on the side also looked at each other, not knowing whether to go up to stop them or say something, and their hearts were also mixed, each with emotion.
Feng Xiaoqi looked at Tian Lili, who was sad on his back, and wanted to pull her up, but his sister Feng Xiaolan on the side grabbed him. Feng Xiaoqi also tugged at his arm, not understanding why his sister stopped him.
Qu Bing looked at this little girl, immediately understood, squatted down, and stroked Tian Lili's face.
Tian Lili grabbed Qu Bing's hand and said, "Sister Qu Bing, I believe that my parents and younger brother will not betray the Spirit Clan, they are not traitors, please believe them." ”
Hearing Tian Lili's voice, Qu Bing's heart softened, she looked up at everyone, and finally looked at Jing Ku. Qu Bing saw that Jing Ku's expression was indifferent, and suddenly, she seemed to understand everything, all of this should be inseparable from Jing Ku's arrangement.
The Spirit Clan has never had a precedent for betrayal, and this incident should also have a useful intention, but he doesn't know what this intention is. Thinking of Jing Ku's layout, Qu Bing realized that the Tian family of the Medical Spirit Clan, including himself, were just chess pieces in this game. Speaking of safety, since Qu Bing could have walked out of the Shenxie Pavilion by himself, and there were also the Sparrow Green Clan and Lu Dong patrolling day and night, then the Tian family of the Yiling Clan also had the ability to escape.
You can go but you don't go, you can save people but you don't save it, then it can only be done deliberately.
Now that he has figured it out, Qu Bing took the opportunity to pull Tian Lili up and said, "I believe in you." Don't worry, your parents and brother should be very safe now, I think you'll see each other soon. ”
When Tian Lili heard this, his heart was full of gratitude, and he wanted to kneel down and thank Qu Bing for his understanding.
Qu Bing hurriedly held Tian Lili's elbows and said, "You little child, why are you so emotional at every turn? Go back and rest and get some sleep." When you wake up, you may be able to see your loved ones. ”
Feng Xiaoqi saw that the matter was almost clear, so he seconded the proposal on the side and said, "Yes, Tian Lili, you can rest assured." ”
The leaders of the Spirit Clan present, including those who had previously criticized the betrayal of the Tian Clan of the Medical Spirit Clan, were also relieved and hurriedly said some good things.
Tian Lili was still young, and his mind was shallow, and when he saw that everyone didn't say anything else, just cared for and comforted her, he felt warmer, and he forgot about being isolated before.
Feng Xiaolan stepped forward, helped Tian Lili and said, "Lili, let's go, go to my room and rest for a while, you can't cry like before." Tian Lili smelled the sweet fragrance on Feng Xiaolan's body, grinned, and followed her.
Ever since the death of Jin Caicai of Shenxie Pavilion, her younger brother Jin Dede has blamed himself and repented: if he hadn't designed to capture those spirits, or his sister wouldn't have died twice.
It's just that it's useless to repent now.
He suddenly thought that the family of the Tian family of the Yiling clan was still there, so he was angry and red-eyed, and wanted to kill them to vent his hatred and avenge his sister Jin Caicai and his unborn nephew Ling Yang.
When he rushed to the cellar where the family of three was being held with the murder weapon and the murder weapon, there was no trace of the Spirit Clan? There were only three dolls made of straw, lying quietly there, dressed in clothes that looked like Spirit Clans, which were so funny that they seemed to be laughing at Jin Dede.
