Chapter Seventy-Nine: Revenge?
"Nonsense! It's just nonsense! What mantra sawa was already ridiculous before, and now you actually made up something This flower is a flower that blooms all over Huangquan Road, oh, according to what you say, this flower is still picked by their people in hell? Zhao Liang heard this, and immediately retorted.
It's just that Wang Xue didn't pay attention to her, but continued to say in a deep voice: "This flower on the other side means the separation of life and death, the last tenderness of the devil is a flower that blooms in the yellow spring, and its existence is to give those dead souls and the devil a bright path, once this petal falls, it means that a life enters hell, or enters heaven after death." ”
As Wang Xue's low and suppressed voice slowly told the meaning of this flower, everyone in the audience was silent, and all of them listened nervously.
Even Zhao Liang, who wanted to refute, was also made silent by this strange atmosphere.
Suddenly, Wang Xue's voice returned to calm, but she said extremely gently: "The two colors of this flower have two meanings, the white flower of the other side means memory, longing and death, and the red flower of the other side means the love that cannot be sought, and do you know?" There is a very miraculous thing about this flower, its flowers will bloom, the leaves will wither, its leaves will be born, the petals will wither, you are born and I am not born, you are born and I am dead, this is so poignant"
Wang Xue's voice seemed to carry a magical power, impregnating the feelings and souls of the women present.
Until she finished speaking, there was still no one in the audience who spoke.
After a while, the third princess couldn't help but murmur, "Is this flower on the other side the last touch of tenderness in the world?" It's so good, the meaning of this flower is so good, and Xue'er, after hearing you say so much, I seem to vaguely remember the content of the book I read when I was a child, if I remember correctly, it seems that there is really a flower that is what you said. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Liang's face turned pale, if what this stinky girl said was true, then didn't she just have to agree to a condition for the other party?
When the time comes, I don't know what excessive conditions this stinky girl will put forward.
Wang Xue smiled and said nothing, but turned her head to look at Zhao Liangshi who had a panicked look, and said in her heart, don't be in a hurry to panic first? I haven't mentioned my conditions yet, and I promise I'll make you even more panicked later.
"Hmph."
Suddenly, a soft hum sounded, attracting everyone's attention.
I saw the second princess sitting next to the third princess slowly stood up and walked towards Wang Xue with a proud expression.
Wang Xue stood in place as usual, quietly waiting for the other party's arrival.
Walking to Wang Xue's side, the second princess's eyes swept over her, and finally landed on the flowers on the other side.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, he slowly stretched out his right hand, pinched a flower, and gently folded it, and picked off a red flower.
At that moment, everyone present held their breath and didn't dare to breathe.
Wang Xue's face changed suddenly, and she said urgently: "Second princess, what are you doing?" ”
The second princess squinted at her, and said in a calm tone: "What are you doing?" Picking flowers, doesn't this princess even have the right to pick a flower? ”
Wang Xue shook her head bitterly, "Second princess, this flower on the other side is very evil, it is said that it can only wait until it falls by itself, if it is picked at will, then something may happen." ”
"Hmph, pretend to be a ghost, this princess doesn't believe in these ghosts and gods, if she has the ability, let this broken flower come to me for trouble?" The second princess obviously didn't believe what Wang Xue said, in her opinion, Wang Xue was alarmist, just a flower, where could there be such an evil door as she said.
However, Wang Xue smiled bitterly and said, "You are a princess, with a golden body, and a dragon qi to protect your body, there will be no evil near you, but."
Speaking of this, her gaze suddenly swept over the women present, and her tone suddenly lowered a little, and said: "But everyone doesn't have this extravagance, I'm afraid it's hard to say." ”
At this time, the sky is getting darker, and the sunset has already set into the mountain stream.
With Wang Xue's ghostly low voice sounding, a layer of goosebumps suddenly appeared on the bodies of everyone present.
"What?"
"How is that possible?"
"Don't scare us!"
There are all women sitting here, how many can be bold?
Many people are even more superstitious about ghosts and gods, so after listening to Wang Xue's words, they can't help but feel a little restless.
"! Wang Xue, as the county lord, how can you say such nonsensical nonsense! Although the second princess also felt a little chill down her spine, she was still angry at Wang Xue's behavior.
Wang Xue hurriedly lowered her head, her dark eyes flickering with a faint light.
It's coming, it's finally coming.
Don't worry, it's true or not, it will be revealed soon.
Seeing that the atmosphere present was a little sluggish, the third princess hurriedly stood up, walked to Wang Xue's side, and said to everyone: "Don't be afraid, after all, this is just a rumor, it's just a legend, you don't have to take it seriously, let's enjoy the flowers." ”
Flowers?
Where are you still in the mood to enjoy the flowers?
As Wang Xue sat down, the atmosphere in the audience became a little depressing, no one spoke anymore, and even some women no longer dared to look at the pot of flowers.
There are also some ladies who are not easy to say, but they have already blamed the second princess in their hearts.
You said you had nothing to do, why did you have to pick the flowers?
Isn't this full of food?
Ah, you are not afraid of daring to love, you are possessed by luxury, but what about us?
Is our life not our fate?
The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable everyone became, and the atmosphere became worse and worse.
However, at this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came from a distance, which frightened everyone into a clever one.
But when they saw that the person who came was the servant of the third princess, they were secretly relieved, but at the same time, they also knew that the next time was to reveal the answer.
Whether the county lord was right, or Zhao Liang's rebuttal was right, it became the focus of everyone's attention for a while, and for the time being, he forgot the fear that the second princess had just picked the flowers on the other side and brought to everyone.
"Bring it, I'll take a look, I remember it seems to be in the middle."
The third princess hurriedly took the yellowed ancient book from the palace maid's hand.
As she turned the pages, it also touched the hearts of everyone present.
Zhao Liangshi clenched her hands nervously, and suddenly, she glanced at Wang Xue who was sitting opposite, but saw that she was always smiling, without the slightest panicked look.
This made Zhao Liang's heart even more hanging in his throat.
Suddenly.
The third princess said a sigh, and then smiled, she turned the page of the book, and the page with pictures and words to everyone, and then said slowly: "You see, there is really a record of this flower on it, and the name written on this book is really the flower on the other side!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone showed surprised expressions.
Did she really say it?
Even the flowers in ancient books are recognized?
When did she become so knowledgeable?
As the third princess's voice fell, Zhao Liang only felt a thunderbolt hit the top of her head, making her whole body tremble uncontrollably.
Wang Xue, who was sitting opposite her, smiled slightly, and secretly said in her heart, author, you are good.
You actually made such a so-called ancient book, and sure enough, I was not wrong about you, you and I are on the side.
"Now that it's been decided, then Mrs. Ma, let's talk about the conditions we just mentioned." Wang Xue smiled and looked at the lady sitting opposite her and said slowly.
Wang Xue's words made Zhao Liang's face a little ugly.
But who made her promise Wang Xue just now, so she could only grit her teeth and say: "Okay, I'm willing to gamble and lose, county lord, tell me, what are your conditions." ”
Wang Xue smiled and said, "Since Mrs. Ma admits it, you don't have to worry." ”
Zhao Liang frowned, not knowing what she meant by this.
"Now that everyone knows the name of this flower and understands the meaning of this flower, the next step should be to bid." As she spoke, she smiled and looked at the organizer who had been standing aside.
The other party also came back to his senses, walked quickly to the other side of the flower, and said a little embarrassed: "Thank you for reminding the county lord, then next, the auction of this other side flower will start now, but before starting, I need to explain one point, because we didn't know about this flower before, so we can't set the price, after just discussing, we decided to price the other side of the flower fifteen taels of silver, and then everyone can start bidding." ”
After the woman finished speaking, she silently took a few steps back and handed over the time to everyone.
Everyone looked at each other, and for a while, no one dared to be the first to bid.
Seeing this, the woman couldn't help but shake her head secretly, since Wang Xue said the name of the flower and the creepy meaning, she knew that something was wrong, and she guessed that the flower might not be sold.
However, just when she thought that no one would buy this flower, someone suddenly said, "Twenty taels." ”
Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted to the man.
After seeing the man clearly, they all had a strange look on their faces.
It turned out that the first person to open his mouth to shout the price turned out to be Zhao Liang's daughter, Zhao Qianyu.
Zhao Liangshi also frowned and looked at his daughter, and said in a low voice: "This flower is so unlucky, what are you doing when you buy it?" ”
Zhao Qianyu just smiled and didn't speak, at this moment she looked at Wang Xue with a little more playfulness, because she could see that Wang Xue wanted this flower, so she had a little more in her heart.
And it seemed that in order to cater to Zhao Qianyu's thoughts, Wang Xue opened her mouth and said: "I'll give thirty taels." ”
And so it was!
Zhao Qianyu guessed that she had a desire for this flower from the moment she accepted it just now, so she deliberately said that the meaning of this flower was so scary, but in fact, the more she was like this, the more she could prove that she wanted this flower.
So in order to avenge her mother, she planned to pit this stinky girl.
Don't you want to?
Then I won't let you get it so smoothly.
With a plan in her heart, Zhao Qianyu continued to speak, "I'll give forty taels." ”
"Qianyu! Are you crazy? Forty taels to buy such a pot of broken flowers, what do you want to do! ”
Zhao Liangshi was anxious, and hurriedly reached out to pull his daughter's hand, but Zhao Qianyu winked at her and said in a low voice: "Mother, don't worry, just hand it over to your daughter, and your daughter will avenge you." ”
