Chapter 55: Walking the Water
Shangguan Li sometimes feels that Xuanyuan Ye is not like a normal person, mortals always have an unavoidable desire, and when they do something, they always bring a straightforward or obscure purpose.
Even if it's just to be poor.
But Xuanyuan Ye stayed in the capital for half a year, and Shangguan Li met him several times, but he couldn't figure out what he was going to do.
He is like a Piao, using a mask to block his true face tightly, and he always appears in unexpected places in Shangguan Li, but he doesn't say anything serious, just plays Tai Chi with her.
Just like it is now.
He sat upright on the stool, and after Shangguan Li made it clear that he didn't want to deal with him, he happily turned his attention to the actors who started working again on the high platform.
It looks like it looks like it's going to be with relish.
The delicate and rare meal was quickly set on the table, but except for Shangguan Li, who was picking up the rice as if no one was around, the other three people at the table did not move.
Xuanyuan Ye seemed to have attracted all his attention by the drama on the stage, and Shangguan Yan had already eaten on the way back in order to wait for Shangguan Bu, who was almost exhausted and collapsed, to catch up.
As for Shangguan Bu, his face froze and he didn't dare to move.
Just kidding, the general didn't move, and he didn't dare to move.
As for the third sister, he has confirmed that she is not a normal person.
In this weird atmosphere, Shangguan Li, an "abnormal person", finished two large bowls of rice after eating countless oranges and pastries.
looked at the hungry Shangguan Bu with a sour stomach, and saw that his mouth was about to be watery.
Shangguan Li burped contentedly, glanced at Xuanyuan Ye, and his tone calmed down.
"The general thinks this play is good?"
Xuanyuan Ye seemed to tuck the corners of his mouth and chuckled.
"It's not pretty."
What are you staring at if it's not good-looking?
But before she could complain, he added.
"The county lord doesn't want to stare at you at night, so I can only look elsewhere."
This can be called naked teasing, but Shangguan Li is quite thick-skinned, she has already begun to figure out Xuanyuan Ye's tricks, and she only sneered after hearing this.
"The beauty is beautiful and delicious, and the general still has to take me, is he joking with me?"
Xuanyuan Ye only floated his gaze back at this time, staring at Shangguan Li's "flower and moon appearance", and there was not the slightest disgust and disgust in his heavy eyes.
"Ye thinks that the county lord doesn't have to be so arrogant, how can the beauty of the world say it in a word, and the night thinks that the county lord looks good like this."
Shangguan Li: "......"
For a moment, she couldn't tell whether this person was sincere or talking nonsense with his eyes open.
Shangguan Bu suddenly trembled, what is the situation now?
He suddenly felt that he had heard something he shouldn't have heard, and the fear that he would be extinguished at any moment had shaped him into a humanoid stone statue.
"It's easy to misunderstand the general's words."
Shangguan Li replied leisurely.
Xuanyuan raised his eyebrows, his voice sounding a little innocent.
"What the county lord is saying, Ye can't understand."
Shangguan Li felt that he couldn't be led by this person all the time, so he got up and said.
"I mean......"
Before she could say a word, suddenly a frightened family member hurriedly ran over.
Shangguan Li had no choice but to swallow back the words he wanted to say and looked at the family who had already walked in front of him.
"Third Miss, it's not good, your Lingshui Pavilion is out of water!"
His voice was deliberately muffled, and only the four people at this table could hear it.
Shangguan Li first raised his eyebrows, and then said indifferently.
"You can just go and save me, I don't have anything valuable, don't worry about me."
The guy seemed to expect her to say this, and his eyes rolled, and he was so anxious that he was sweating.
"No, no, Mrs. Su went to Lingshui Pavilion to look for you, and she is still in it and hasn't come out."
"What?"
It was Shangguan Yan who slapped the table, and she didn't care about waiting for the family to reply, so she turned around and rushed in the direction of Lingshui Pavilion.
Jia Ding didn't follow immediately, but glanced at Shangguan Li again.
Shangguan Li had already stood up, since Aunt Su was involved, she really needed to go.
"I'll go with the county lord."
Xuanyuan Ye followed her movements and got up, and her simple movements revealed an unshakable majesty.
At this time, Shangguan Li didn't have time to think much about his purpose, nodded slightly, and strode in the direction of Shangguan Yan.
Seeing that everyone was leaving, Shangguan Bu of course couldn't sit still, and dragged his two sore legs to follow.
Their table was already very eye-catching, but this time the four people were gone, and everyone began to speculate about what happened.
Shangguan Xun, as the master, seemed too calm at the moment, and after temporarily calming the guests at the scene in a few words, he turned sideways and whispered a few words to his ordinary-looking guard.
Then the guard followed.
"I've sent someone to check it out, don't panic."
His tone was relaxed, but there was a flash of viciousness in his eyes.
At this time, Shangguan Li was already standing at the door of Lingshui Pavilion.
She was a little worried in her heart, so she walked a little faster, Shangguan Bu and the family were left behind, but Xuanyuan Ye followed her like no one was in a hurry.
"It seems that the man did not lie to the county lord."
Xuanyuan said slowly.
Shangguan Li looked up, the fire in the Lingshui Pavilion was mainly concentrated on the second floor, where it had become a sea of fire, and the smoke shrouded it like a monster with teeth and claws, and Shangguan Li couldn't see the situation inside.
In the open space in front of the door stood a few people with buckets and splashing water into them.
But let's not mention that their location can't touch the second floor at all, even if they change their location, the water takes place on the first floor, just with such a little water in the hands of such a person.
It is an overestimate to say that the salary is a drop in the bucket.
Shangguan Li stepped forward and grabbed a family member who had lost half of his eyebrows by the fire and asked.
"What about Shangguan Yan?"
The little family was already highly nervous, and he was already startled when he was suddenly pulled by the corner of his clothes.
As soon as he turned his head, he met Shangguan Li's face, which was becoming more and more inhuman-like under the firelight, and he didn't let out a scream, but kept such a frightened expression and simply fainted.
Shangguan Li secretly scolded a word of waste.
"County Lord, there seems to be something up there."
Xuanyuan Night's voice interjected just right, with the coldness of his unique fresh snow.
Shangguan Li raised her head when she heard this, and found that at this angle, the smoke could not completely block her vision, and a faint red fell beside the large window on the second floor.
Because the color is so close to the flame, you can't notice it if you don't look closely.
Shangguan Li immediately remembered that it was the corner of Shangguan Yan's clothes.
