Chapter 40: What a Woman Is?
Starry Night.
On the banks of the Baishui River in the south of Nanjing.
The Baishui River, originating from the Black Bone Mountains, flows from east to west through the city of Nanjing to the northwest of the holy city of Jialan. Every year, thousands of ships come and go to the two major trading cities of Jialan and Nanjing, which brings great convenience to the economic prosperity of Nanjing.
Baishui Bridge is the only promenade-style stone bridge built on the Baishui River, and it is also the most prosperous street market in Nanjing after nightfall. Unlike the East Market and the West Market, it does not sell daily necessities and equipment, but sells some simple and interesting gadgets and accessories, and it is a leisure place for entertainment.
There are also many flower streets and willow lanes on the streets on both sides of the Baishui Bridge, and there are many erotic places. On the bridge, however, it is much fresher and more elegant, with art masters who knead clay figures, scholarly Confucian scholars who sell calligraphy and paintings, and young apprentices who sell exquisite pendants. All in all, it's a great place for lovers to go on a date and go shopping.
Chu Xinghe changed into a luxurious but not fancy costume and leisurely wandered around the banks of the Baishui River. Along the way, there were bewitching women in thin gauze clothes who seemed to be exposed, and they all were dodged by Chu Xinghe's ingenious body.
There are really a lot of gentlemen who go in and out of these erotic places in groups of three or five, and they are also in the market for a while. Chu Xinghe hummed a little song and walked all the way towards the Baishui Bridge that Pei Su, the red-clothed girl in the natural curie during the day, said.
"Chu Xinghe, I think you're too boring!" Tianyou said in a rather disdainful voice: "You didn't do such an important thing as helping me refine combat boots, and you actually came to meet a woman who was bent on harming you! Even if you don't want to help me refine combat boots, then you can refine that metallic Xuanli crystal nucleus for yourself first, and break through the realm of Dragon Balls to improve your cultivation!"
"Tianyou, what are you worried about?" Chu Xinghe said disapprerovingly: "Do you think I will be planted in the hands of that little girl? Not to mention that I have been trapped in the Black Bone Mountain Range for a full month, and I have long been suffocated to death, and you, I don't know how many years I have been sealed in the gluttonous armband, won't you be boring? Look at how good the scenery here is, how bustling the people are, and how interesting it is! Besides, you can't blindly cultivate, you have to combine work and rest, understand?"
"I don't understand, I know you're a friend who forgets your friends!"
"Come on, that little girl can't arouse the interest of this young master!" Chu Xinghe saw that Tianyou was extremely dissatisfied, so he restrained his smile and said, "Do you think I will come to trouble that crazy girl for no reason?"
"So you have a purpose?" Tianyou exclaimed.
"Or what do you think? Chu Xinghe said: "Don't you hear? That savage girl is the niece of Pei Xiuyi, the owner of the natural residence, as long as you think about it carefully, you will know that her identity is not simple." Pei Xiuyi is the daughter of the two old-timers who are 'earth-shattering', so Pei Su's girl is naturally their granddaughter......"
"What does this have to do with you?" asked Tianyou, still unclear.
"It's a shame that you've lived for so long, it's all in vain!" Chu Xinghe sneered, and then said: "I only inherited the "Qiankun Array Dao" and "Medicine Master Rulai Sutra" from Shizun, that is to say, one is the formation path, the other is the refining medicine, I can only become a formation master and an alchemist, but I have no way to start with this refining weapon, if I can get the guidance of the two old-timers who are shocking, maybe I can also become a refiner." I can do all three stunts like this, and at that time, I just didn't think I could do it!"
"It turns out that you are playing this kind of wishful thinking!"
"I don't know if it's because you're simple-minded, or because you've lost your memory, you're as stupid as a pig! It seems that after this matter is over, I'd better hurry up and help you set up your combat boots! If it can help you get back a little memory and make you smarter, it would be even better!" Chu Xinghe said and laughed, and the person had already walked onto the Baishui Bridge.
The Baishui Bridge is full of people, and it is also thanks to the fact that this corridor-style Baishui Bridge is wide enough to accommodate so many people. The one-on-one couple holding hands walked past Chu Xinghe, talking and laughing, which was quite enviable to Chu Xinghe.
"Where is the crazy girl?" Chu Xinghe looked around as he walked, and finally saw a girl dressed in red in a small hexagonal pavilion. Pei Su is still wearing a red dress, with a short shirt on her upper body, revealing two snow-white arms, a short folded skirt on her lower body, and black stockings disappearing under the skirt, which leads people to reverie, the small waist that can be held tightly can simply make the vast majority of women around her envious, jealous and hateful.
Pei Su, who was still wearing pigtails, was lying on the railing in the hexagonal pavilion at the moment, holding a red silk scarf in his hand, flapping on the water, chasing the lanterns on the water. The orange glow of the lantern shone on her immature and delicate face, and there was a thrilling beauty.
Chu Xinghe was a little stunned, he didn't expect this savage and vicious little devil to have such a beautiful and innocent side. At this moment, she seems to be a fairy who is not immaculate, and her smile is full of peerless elegance.
At this time, it was time to put the lanterns, and a little girl selling lanterns came over and handed him a lantern: "This boy, buy a lantern, let go of the lanterns in the Baishui River, and your wish will soon be fulfilled!"
Chu Xinghe was stunned for a moment, reached out and took the lantern, took out a gold coin and gave it to the little girl. The little girl wanted to find money, Chu Xinghe waved his hand and said, "No need." The little girl thanked her a few times, then turned around and went to someone else to sell it.
Chu Xinghe held the lantern in his hand, and couldn't help laughing at himself in his heart: You are not too young, and you still believe in this kind of thing! As he spoke, he was about to throw the lantern in his hand into the river, but a girl's pleasant voice came from his ear: "Brother Xinghe, you are here! Hey, you also bought a lantern?"
Chu Xinghe raised his eyes and saw that Pei Su had already walked in front of him at some point, with his hands behind his back, looking at him a little shyly.
"This ...... Given to you. When Chu Xinghe was at a loss, Tianyou Chuan told him: "Give her the lantern! If you want to resolve the friction with her, then believe me, no matter what, my previous host has also experienced these things, I know more than you, listen to me!"
"Give it to me?" Pei Su hesitated and stretched out his little hand to take the lantern, and smiled mischievously: "But I have already let go of the lantern just now! I can't remember what wish I want to make for a while! Why don't we put it together, Brother Xinghe?"
"Hey, did you hear that, this little girl has called you 'Brother Xinghe'! Maybe she really likes you!" Tianyou said with a smile in Chu Xinghe's heart.
"Don't make trouble!" Chu Xinghe scolded Tianyou in his heart, but nodded at Pei Su with a smile on his face: "Okay, then let's put it together." ”
"Beware, this is a gentle trap!" Tianyou said and stopped talking. Chu Xinghe naturally knew in his heart that this Pei Su couldn't really be good with herself, maybe she was planning some terrible conspiracy to kill herself at this moment, so she definitely couldn't take it lightly.
The two came to the railing of the hexagonal pavilion, Pei Su handed the lantern to Chu Xinghe, and each of them held the lantern in one hand and put it in the Baishui River.
"Brother Xinghe, make a wish. Pei Su said with an innocent smile on his face.
"Well, I don't have any wishes, so why don't you make one for me. Chu Xinghe showed a smile on his face.
"How can anyone help me with this wish!" Pei Suliu frowned slightly.
"Well, I'll just make a promise. Chu Xinghe closed his eyes as he spoke, recited a dragon descending secret spell in his heart, and then quickly opened his eyes, afraid that Pei Su would kick himself off the Baishui River when he closed his eyes and made a wish, and he would regret it.
But it turns out that it was Chu Xinghe himself who spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, Pei Su looked at Chu Xinghe with a smile and made a wish, and then asked: "Brother Xinghe, what kind of wish do you make? Can you tell Su'er?"
"This ...... Doesn't it mean that if you say your wish, it won't work?" Chu Xinghe made an excuse with a weak heart, he just recited a mantra silently, how could he make any wish, what did he say.
"Hmph, forget it if you don't say it!" Pei Suqiao's face was cold, and the intoxicating smile disappeared all of a sudden, which startled Chu Xinghe. Pei Su turned around and left, and said without looking back: "Ignore you!"
"Pig's head, chase after you!" Tianyou saw that Chu Xinghe was still in a daze, and hurriedly urged.
Chu Xinghe smiled bitterly, and said in his heart as he chased after him: What is this called! I would rather that crazy girl shout and kill with me, I can still handle it, I really can't do anything about her when she is so angry!
chased to a painting boat connected to the Baishui Bridge, and saw that Pei Su had already sat down at a wine table, which was already full of wine and food, which was obviously arranged by Pei Su a long time ago.
"Hehe, that's where it really begins. Tianyou's voice came from his heart: "Be careful of those drinks and dishes, eighty percent of them are either drugged or laxative!"
Chu Xinghe replied to Tianyou: "Are women such terrible animals?"
"Don't you know this? Have you forgotten the iceberg beauty at the bottom of the valley who was frozen in the marrow washing spring? You were kind enough to save her, but she wanted to kill you! This woman is a fickle and hypocritical poison, so people call them 'femme fatales' and 'the most poisonous woman's heart'!" said Tianyou as if he knew women very well.
"Don't grow her ambition anymore and destroy your own prestige!" Chu Xinghe said disdainfully: "I'm curious now whether you are a man or a woman? Or rather, are you male or female?
"......" Tianyou was speechless for a while by Chu Xinghe's spoof.
"Brother Xinghe, come here to eat!" At this time, Pei Su beckoned to this side.
"Look, I was angry just now, and then I looked like I was fine, and I'm sure there's something wrong with the food. "God bless affirmed his thoughts.
"Don't worry, I've already studied most of the prescriptions recorded in the Medicine Master Nyorai Sutra, and I can even tell which medicine it is just by smell!
In the past month, although he has made no progress in refining medicine, he has already learned a lot about pharmacology. He could still easily distinguish ordinary poisons and drugs.
As soon as Chu Xinghe sat down opposite Pei Su, Pei Su poured a glass of wine and handed it to him, and said with a bright smile: "This cup wishes Brother Xinghe to be reborn and return, and his cultivation will be a thousand miles in a thousand days!"
"Confused and distracted!This girl is really uneasy and kind!" Chu Xinghe took the wine glass and raised it in front of him, sniffed, and a faint smell of medicine lingered in his nostrils. Chu Xinghe immediately judged that this was a drug that could blindly make people fall into a state of confusion and be at the mercy of others.
