Chapter 29: Human Greed

According to legend, the picture of Guanyin was painted by Wu Daozi, a famous painter of the Tang Dynasty.

Wu Daozi is known as the saint of painting, and the portraits he painted are "strange and strange, and there is no one together", especially the Buddha statues, which are "the best in the world". The Buddha statues he painted were fluttering and fluttering, and they were called "Wu Belt Wind" by the world.

When Buddhism flourished in the Tang Dynasty, the most widely circulated portrait of the Buddha was painted by him. Now all the styles of Buddha statues also come from his interpretation.

And this dripping Guanyin statue, one of his best paintings, was once hyped to a sky-high price, and everyone did not expect that it would appear here as a prize for the game, and the temptation is too great.

The people seemed to be in a kind of madness, and as soon as the host finished saying that the game had begun, they eagerly observed the antiques in the hall, and wanted to be the first to find the fake, and get the dripping picture of Guanyin.

The hall was chaotic for a while, and in the face of great temptation, humanity was undoubtedly revealed.

Jian Bai stood in the midst of these desires, looking out of place, looking around, all of them were greedy eyes.

Sun Fu, Liu Wei and Sun Wanting all have light in their eyes, even people of Song Jiacheng's status can't help but seem to be unconcerned, but in fact, their eyes have never left the dripping Guanyin statue.

Compared with other people's obsession with the dripping Guanyin statue, she looked very indifferent, holding a goblet in one hand, and slowly retreated to the corner to the side, watching those people coldly.

It's just that she didn't see Li Tingchen's figure as far as her eyes could see, where did he go?

Just as Jian Bai searched the crowd for the figure, a person had already approached her side.

"Why don't you wear white anymore? The black clothes you wore these few times, I remember that you used to like white the most, and almost all of your clothes were white. Song Xiang's voice was low and depressed.

As if expecting him to come, Jian Bai didn't show a trace of surprise, didn't look at him, shook the wine glass lightly, and watched the orange liquid inside slowly shake in the transparent glass, as if dancing, before he slowly spoke.

"Because I don't deserve to wear white now, are you satisfied with this answer?"

"Unworthy? Why? Song Xiang was puzzled.

Jian Bai's gaze was still locked on the liquid in the cup, "Because white is too easy to dirty, black is not easy to see even if it is soaked in blood." ā€

Her expression was lazy with a bit of melancholy, as if she had seen through the red dust and soaked in vicissitudes.

"You...... Still complaining about me, right? After that fire half a year ago, you divorced me, and then it was like the world evaporated, and you ...... Are you okay? Song Xiang's Adam's apple rolled twice, looking at Jian Bai's eyes with shame.

Jian Bai finally raised her eyes to look at him, but her eyes did not have the warmth of the past, like two sharp blades piercing Song Xiang's heart, "How are you doing?" What do you think? ā€

She slowly pulled the wrist guard on her arm, revealing the ugly scar inside, Song Xiang saw the scar for the first time, and took a step back in shock, "This is ...... Burned in the fire? ā€

"How do you think I escaped from the fire? When you ran out of the fire with Sun Wanting in your arms, did you ever think about what I was going to do?

How can a woman who is tied to fire survive? Jian Bai raised his arm and showed the scar in front of his eyes.

"I—I wanted to get Wanting out first, and then I'll come back to save you!" Song Xiang was forced to retreat step by step by her.

"Really? Did you come to my rescue? Jian Bai almost squeezed in front of his eyes, stared into his eyes and asked.

"I, I wanted to go back, but Wanting was stunned, she ...... She grabbed my clothes, and I ...... for a while, "Song Xiang also felt that his explanation was too pale to continue.

"Hahaha......" Jian Bai looked at him embarrassed and smiled, "That's right, you only have her in your heart, your strength is limited, you can only carry one person out at a time, you choose to save her first, I don't blame you."

But if you think about me a little in your heart, first untie the rope that binds me and then let me fend for myself, I will not be so miserable.

Do you know how this scar is formed? I left it behind when I burned the rope with fire in pain, you know? It really hurts, and I can smell the smell of barbecue.

I don't eat barbecue until now, do you know why? Jian Bai's eyes were crazy, and anger and hatred were surging in his eyes.

Song Xiang didn't know if he was frightened by her momentum, or if he was really ashamed, he touched the scar on her arm with a trembling hand, "I'm sorry, I will definitely compensate you twice in the future!" If you have anything to do, just come to me. ā€

"Looking for you? Don't you have to worry about Sun Wanting's feelings? If I say I can't let go of you, will you come back to me? Jian Bai leaned forward, almost leaning on him, and grabbed Song Xiang's arm. Will it? ā€

Her eyes were hot, and her madness was full of antiquity.

After meeting again this time, Jian Bai has been cold to him, and this sudden enthusiasm made him feel at a loss.

"Brother Song, why did you come to her again?"

Sun Wanting's voice sounded behind the two.

Song Xiang realized that he had been squeezed against the wall by Jian Bai, and she could kiss him on the face no matter how close she was, and he even had a moment of trance, Jian Bai was still the same as before, and he had never left.

In the past, whenever Jian Bai was close to him, he would subconsciously dodge, but this time he didn't dodge, and he didn't want to hide.

After hearing Sun Wanting's sharp scream, Jian Bai widened the distance between the two of them very interestingly, turned around and walked towards the rest area on the side, leaving them with only a dashing back.

Sun Wanting's crying voice came from behind her, "Brother Song, why are you always looking for her lately?" Don't you want me anymore, I almost lost my life for you. ā€

"How come, I will never forget everything you did for me. If you hadn't pushed me away, I would have been hit by a car and killed. And Song Xiang coaxed softly.

Jian Bai listened to their conversation, and the corners of his lips gradually rose, turning into a triumphant smile, but his eyes were cold.

I don't wear white because I'm no longer in the light, I wear black to blend in with that darkness.

Not only is this cruise ship luxurious, but it also has a lot of space, with a corridor at the corner of the hall with five lounges on each side of the corridor, which is convenient for guests to take a short break when they are tired.

Jian Bai's mind was on Song Xiang and Sun Wanting, and he walked into this corridor unconsciously. And he walked to the door of the innermost door.

Just as she realized that she was in the wrong place and wanted to leave, she heard a rustling sound coming from the door on the left.

She listened curiously.

It's okay not to listen to it, but this face suddenly feels hot.

There was a woman's muffled whisper, and a man's heavy panting.

This voice is not unfamiliar, and even by listening to the picture in the voice, she can make it up in her brain, and it must be a blood-pumping scene.

This place is not to stay for long!

Jian Bai didn't know who was inside, and she didn't listen to the habit of the root of the wall, so she turned around and prepared to leave.

At this moment, the voice of passion inside became smaller, and the sound of speaking was faintly heard.

"Goblin, you're so charming, I really want to die on you. Be obedient and quickly tell me which of those antiques outside is a fake. You help me get that dripping Guanyin painting, I sold it, take the money with you, and we can play like this for the rest of our lives, okay? The man's voice was frivolous, mixed with the sound of sucking.

The woman snorted coquettishly, and Jian Bai's bones were crisp when she heard it, but as soon as she spoke, Jian Bai guessed who she was.
