When the story was finally over, my mood was almost as bad as it was, and my hand holding the glass was a little sore, so I quickly poured the wine into my mouth and swallowed it in one gulp, as if I hoped it would quench the blood that was tumbling in my chest for unknown reasons.

Lin'er didn't know when, she was no longer at the couch, and she didn't see her when she looked around, she must have cried too sadly, her tears sparked her makeup, and she went to the back to wash her face.

Zhang Linfan has been staring at the wine glass in his hand since he heard it from the beginning, with a thoughtful and stoppery look, and from time to time he will raise his eyes and look at me with an extremely scrutinizing gaze.

I didn't speak, but continued to drink, and my heart calmed down.

Finally, when the clock in the corner of the wall rang eleven times, he slowly opened his mouth: "As the mother of the earth, why can't you even protect a weak woman, and you actually watch her die, isn't it too unkind?"

I was speechless when I asked this question, and the sense of déjà vu was a little more. All those years ago, a man dressed in a blue-purple robe, armed with a shining sword, and wearing a golden crown on his head, asked me the same question. But where is he after all these years?

"Linfan, you're wrong!" Lin'er didn't know when she came back, her face had been washed clean, without a little fat powder, but it was still bright and lovely, "Do you think my young lady doesn't want to? However, those who become obsessed with love and fall into obsession cannot be saved, in fact, death is more enjoyable for them than life!" Her voice was small, and she didn't have the noise on weekdays, and she sounded very sensible.

Sighing, Zhang Linfan didn't refute her, but he didn't mean to agree, but stood up, drank all the wine in the cup, and said: "It's not too early, thank you for the wonderful story you brought me, that day the heart pipa can be regarded as back in the hands of the insider!"

Before the two of us could say goodbye to him, the wind chimes on the door rang softly, and the man disappeared without a trace.

"Princess, why don't you explain?" While cleaning up the things on the table, Lin'er asked a little angrily, "That guy would say that about you, what does he know as a mortal!"

Standing up and moving slowly, I smiled indifferently and said, "Since I know that he doesn't understand, why bother to explain?

Nodding as if she didn't understand, she muttered faintly: "If he changes Suyang, he will definitely understand!"

This name taught my heart to hurt again, I raised my hand to cover my heart, paused in my footsteps, and quickly walked into the back hall.

When I went back to my room and lay on the bed, I was already in tears.

I don't know exactly when I fell asleep, but now that I'm awake, and because of crying, my temples hurt and jumped, and when I sat up, I felt nauseous and vomiting.

"Princess, are you awake?" there was a knock on the door, it was Lin'er's voice.

"Hmm!" I got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, "You go and open the shop first, I'll be here in a moment!"

There was no sound outside the door, only the sound of footsteps walking farther and farther, and it seemed that she had gone to open a store.

After taking a shower and changing into cotton clothes, I walked out, but at a glance I saw a woman sitting on the couch drinking tea—

Dressed in a capable professional attire, with a neat ponytail tied up high, a deep breath, a pair of slender white hands, and from time to time he will hold the glasses on the bridge of his small nose.

Although this face is unfamiliar to me, it is just that no matter how much I change my appearance, my eyes will never change, so I can recognize it at a glance.

"Why don't you squeak in advance when the old man visits, so that I can be prepared!" I sat down next to her, and I reluctantly added a cup of tea, "It's also a shame to prepare this rose eggplant today, otherwise, I can only let you drink plain water!" After speaking, I covered my mouth and smiled.

"Nuwa Niangniang's eyesight is good, I have changed my appearance like this, you can still recognize it!" The beauty on the couch adjusted her sitting posture and showed a charming and bright smile towards me, "This Lin'er girl, but I didn't see it!"

When she was said like this, Lin'er blushed all of a sudden, and muttered with a flat mouth: "Then, who told Sister Lily of the Valley to change her appearance, and she is getting more and more beautiful!"

Her name is Lily of the Valley, and when I met her, it was 1,500 years ago, and at that time, she was still an ordinary person, or she thought she was just an ordinary person.

At that time, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Luoyang City was devastated and devastated, so I took Lin'er with me and moved the store to Shanyang County, which is now the northwest area of Hui County, Henan Province, and it was there that I was fortunate to get acquainted with Lily of the Valley.

......

When I found the storefront and landed, my piano music was played again and opened again. Despite the turbulence of this era, there will always be some literati and scholars who come to patronize from time to time, and the days will never be boring.

Although this Shanyang County is not big, it is also very famous!

It's not because it embraces beautiful mountains and rivers, or hides scenic spots, but because it lives the legendary "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest" - Ji Kang, Liu Ling, Ruan Ji, Shan Tao, Xiang Xiu, Wang Rong and Ruan Xian!

When it comes to these seven people, we have to say that the chaos of this era, the country is broken and divided like a mirror, and politics is even more chaotic. The lives of the common people are relatively different, with an endless stream of literati and artists, although they are panicked, but they are also free.

Not long after the store opened, it was somehow misunderstood by many people as a tavern, so that Lin'er had to explain it many times every day. Xu is the drunkard Liu Ling, who pulls his friends all day long, and begs for wine and food in my store, so he caused such a misunderstanding.

No, he is staring at Ji Kang with big eyes, like a black-eyed chicken that is about to be pinched, and there are no feathers standing up on the back of his neck.

Speaking of the two of them, I can't help but laugh -

That Ji Kang was originally an official who worshipped the doctor, but his political views did not agree with the government and the opposition, and he came to this poor country with his official position, and he played iron all day long, and some people liked it and gave it away, and he did not accept money, so he was often overstretched;

Lin'er often scolded them for not being called the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest", but the "Seven Idlers of the Bamboo Forest"!

"You said that girl from the lily of the valley, why did you fall in love with that poor sour?" Ji Kang took a sip of wine, took off his shoes and socks and stepped on my couch, "It's a pity!"

"You are poor, do you still want to laugh at others?" Liu Ling drank all the contents of the cup, burped, took out a piece of dim sum from the basket I hung on the side, and ate it generously, "People are not good, and you can't afford it!"

As soon as Lin'er saw it, she stepped forward and grabbed it: "You are so thick-skinned, you can eat without asking, do you still know some rules?" said that it was robbing, but in fact, it was just a show, after all, he had already bitten most of it, and it was useless to snatch it back.

Liu Ling laughed, waved her hand, and said, "Miss Lin'er really wronged me, I heard the sound of this basket crying very sadly, so I ate one or two snacks from it, so that it would no longer work so hard!"

Lin'er was so angry that she rolled her eyes, but she didn't have a good seizure, so she had to leave there and enter the back hall, looking like she loved it.

The store was lively, but the door of the store was suddenly slammed, and then a person rushed in, and while drilling under the couch, he kept reading: "Girl, let Xiaosheng hide, I'll leave immediately, leave immediately!"

After looking at this person, I found that he looked like a scholar, dressed as a typical scholar, lying on the bed in my shop, sticking to the wall, not even daring to come out, if I didn't know, I wouldn't have thought that there was such a person hidden there.

Although Ji Kang and Liu Ling on the couch were surprised, they didn't know what to do, so they continued to drink as if nothing had happened.

Lin'er stopped doing it, and dragged the man's leg when she ran out: "My shop is not for you to hide and seek, you give me out, get out!"

Trying to get rid of her, the man begged heavily: "Girl, I am really not a bad person, it's just that someone is looking for me everywhere, so I am hiding in the girl's treasure shop for the time being!" he said, as if he was looking out, as if he was worried about someone, "Wait a while, if someone comes to look for me, especially a woman, you must not say that you have seen me!"

Wind chimes rang and the door was opened again. , a fresh goose yellow gauze skirt lit up in front of my eyes, a woman with a tulle on her face, and stepped into the store lightly.

"Excuse me, girl, has anyone ever entered your shop?"

I was fiddling with the abacus, and when I heard her ask, I stopped my fingers, thinking that this person was really fast, but I didn't want to be such a delicate, graceful, elegant and generous master.

I glanced at her lightly, and continued to fiddle with the abacus, and I neither answered nor looked at her again.

The man was really anxious, stepped forward and grabbed my wrist, and his voice suddenly rose: "I beg you, girl, I saw him enter your shop with my own eyes, you must know, please, let him come out to see me, let Luo Gongzi come out to see me!"

The hand that touched the skin made my heart feel cold, how could it be so cold? But when I looked at it again, where could it still be called a hand, it was clearly a pair of withered claws that were twisted and deformed.

"I've really been looking for him for a long time, and now I'm finally seeing him, but I don't want to ......" The man in the goose yellow gauze skirt sighed, his hand was released, his eyes turned from anxious to gloomy, and the two hands shaped like withered claws were also put down, hanging on the sides of the body, looming in the wide sleeves of his shirt, which made people feel even more terrifying.

A breath of wind swept in through the crack in the uncovered door, scraping off the veil on her face, revealing a very beautiful and moving face!
