Volume 2 The Wind Rises and the End of Qingping Chapter 155 How can I not be stained?
In the room of the painting boat, the woman in the red gauze and the young swordsman in the green shirt sat opposite each other.
The two looked at each other and looked at each other without a word.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Li Zijin thought about it, but first took off the Cuiqu sword on his back, put it aside, put a gold leaf on the tea table, and pushed it in front of the girl sitting opposite.
The young man looked at this room out of the corner of his eye, there was no imaginary glamorous and charming atmosphere, but like a young lady's boudoir, the decoration was elegant, and the sandalwood was light.
It's just that among the sandalwood, there is a more special material called "acacia".
This thing is prevalent in the major green buildings in the world, and is also mostly used between husband and wife, which can make men and women "confused" and will have feelings for each other.
There are many calligraphy and paintings hanging on the left and right sides of the house, and there are many inscribed poems on several columns supporting the beams.
"The distant mountains have long eyebrows, and the thin willows have a curled waist. ”
"The eyebrows are competing for the spring mountain, pitiful and wrinkled; the clear jade flute is idle for a long time, and the bosom friend is rare······"
There are many poems like this, and there are many in the house, just like the thousands of flowers on the Kaoyu River, and the various literati inscriptions in this boudoir are also competing for beauty, each with its own merits, and the list is endless.
Although Li Zijin doesn't know poetry, he also feels that those who come here to write poems are brilliant, and he can't write such poems in the face of such a beautiful and delicious girl.
The Oiran was not in a hurry to pocket the gold leaf worth 10,000 taels of gold, but took the initiative to relieve the embarrassment of the atmosphere, she caught a glimpse of the young man in the green shirt, looking at the calligraphy and paintings and inscriptions around him, and said with a smile: "It's all some guests chatting with each other, and the poems are booming, so I have to write a poem, and over time, the house has become what it is today." ”
The young man nodded and said, "If the girl wants to be extremely beautiful, there will be so many talented people who are willing to write poems for you." ”
In fact, Li Zijin didn't mean anything else when he said this, but in the ears of the Oiran who had seen many men, it gave her another meaning.
She thought it was this son, and she couldn't wait to see it, so she had this "hint".
The woman picked up a mandarin duck pot unhurriedly, and asked Li Zijin with a smile: "Does the son want to drink tea or drink?"
"You're here······ Is there a Jiannan Burning Spring?" he said without thinking.
Li Zijin asked, but the Oiran was stumped.
"Jiannan Yaochun, what is that?" she asked curiously.
"A kind of sake brewing in my hometown, too······ Honghu Prefecture is so far away, it is normal to have it. Li Zijin was a little disappointed, "Forget it, let's drink tea." ”
The Oiran nodded, touched a small mechanism on the handle of the mandarin duck pot with his fingertips, replaced the pre-prepared wine with tea, and poured a steaming cup of fragrant tea for the young man in green shirt and herself.
This mandarin duck pot was also seen by Li Zijin when he participated in the Morning Snow Festival in Buye Mountain before.
Some of the better mandarin duck pots have exquisite mechanism design, and they can contain a lot of wine. The next one can also be divided into at least two different drinks, which is quite convenient.
The world, up and down the mountain, is inseparable from the shadow of the Mo family's children.
Larger objects include fairy ferries, talisman boats, trap beasts, trap birds, siege crossbows, and castle defense vehicles······
Smaller objects include mandarin duck pots, delicate bags, machine people, and sleeve arrows······ Wait a minute.
Li Zijin has always been fascinated by the concept of the Mo family and love non-attack, and he never imagined that in this remote Honghu Prefecture, the little Zheng Guo, you can also see the Mo family's handwriting.
After pouring the tea, she sat down slowly, tilted her head slightly, and gently lifted the veil with her right hand, from left to right.
Like a hibiscus out of the water, it suddenly rises in the ripples.
The graceful demeanor is amazing.
Beauty.
Extremely beautiful.
It's hard to be more beautiful.
This was the first thought in Li Zijin's heart.
The boy looked away slightly, unconsciously, not daring to look directly at the Oiran's beautiful face.
It's hard to imagine that such a girl who is clearly the same age as herself is already Zheng Guo's famous Oiran?
Reminiscent of what Lu Gaoyang said before, there are many powerful people from the capital who want to take this Oiran as a concubine and take him to the capital to enjoy glory and wealth, but she politely refused.
At that time, Li Zijin thought that the dart master was suspected of exaggeration in his words.
However, at this moment, I saw the true face of the woman who was rumored to be able to make a hundred flowers discolored.
Li Zijin asked himself that he had seen a lot of women with excellent appearance, but at this time, even the young man who had already seen Su Hu, Tang Yin, and Yun Meng, who could be called the best women in the city, and had a sweetheart in his heart, Lu Zhixing, had to be convinced.
The woman in front of her, the name of the Oiran is really well deserved.
She made Li Zijin re-understand what it means to "hear is better than see".
When the young man re-examined the poems inscribed by the literati in the boudoir, he suddenly felt that those poems were overshadowed by the girl's appearance, as if no matter how good the poems were, they were not enough to describe the face of the woman in front of him.
"What's wrong with Childe?"
She asked.
"No······ It's nothing. ”
He replied.
"I'm not good-looking. ”
She asked again.
"No, the teacher girl is naturally excellent, like a water hibiscus, out of the mud without staining, with an immortal aura that is not easy to obtain by ordinary women. ”
He replied again.
The ordinary woman in the young man's mouth actually refers to the "woman under the mountain", but he is unwilling to reveal the identity of the person on the mountain, and he does not tell her in the tone of a qi refiner.
And the woman who had lifted the veil, like other women in the world, suddenly wanted to break the casserole and ask the end, she asked, "Why doesn't that boy look at me?"
Li Zijin tilted his head and replied, "Otherwise, the girl should put on the veil." ”
She became interested in the unconventional son in front of her.
The other guests wished that she would have lifted the veil earlier, but this person was good, but the other way around?
Somehow, she suddenly had the idea of teasing him.
Who makes the life of the Oiran so boring, it is rare to meet an interesting guest, and it is inevitable to "play with the heart".
"Alright. The woman whispered.
Li Zijin turned his head and found that she hadn't put on a veil at all, and suddenly blushed a little, "Why bother to be deceived by the teacher, the girl is ······ below"
She blinked, with a smile on her face, shallow dimples, and said with a natural attitude: "Since I am a woman in the Qinglou, isn't it normal for me to deceive people?"
But when I look at this Oiran for the second time, I no longer have the amazing feeling at the first sight.
Li Zijin also gradually calmed down, picked up the teacup casually, and took a sip of tea to hide his helplessness.
Seeing that the green shirt stopped talking, the leader of the flowers in Kaoyufang propped up the table with both hands, and his whole body leaned towards him, looked at the young man's delicate face closely, and asked, "Angry?"
After the woman approached, Li Zijin reacted suddenly, grabbed the Cuiqu sword, got up and frowned and asked, "Is there anything added to the girl's tea?"
She looked at him with an innocent face, and when she looked at the young swordsman in green shirt, who was still a little cute just now, her face suddenly became serious, and even her tone became serious.
The Oiran shook his head and said, "No, it's just the ordinary fragrant tea in Jinhuai City, except that the price is more expensive than other teas, there is nothing different." ”
"Then why do I ······ Li Zijin didn't say the latter sentence, "Why do you feel happy when you see the girl?"
This feeling is especially clear after the woman in front of her is closer.
Is it the aroma of tea or ······ ?
Li Zijin's mind turned sharply, and he began to look left and right, using his spiritual power to investigate the objects in the boudoir, and even let go of some clues in the corners.
The Oiran didn't know why, but he didn't bother the guest, because he looked like he was really angry at the moment.
When the young swordsman in the green shirt rested his gaze on a cage of sandalwood, his pupils dilated slightly, locking on the most suspicious object.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the woman in a green shirt instantly used her technique, pulled out several afterimages, and suddenly appeared next to the cage of sandalwood, and smelled it again, after confirming that the sandalwood was strange, the young swordsman picked up the cage of sandalwood with a sword, threw it out of the window in the boudoir of the painting boat, and fell into the Kaoyu River.
There is still a faint fragrance in the house, Li Zijin condensed a breath of martial arts true qi, slapped it out with a palm, and inadvertently gathered qi for the wind, blasted open the wooden door of the boudoir, and a gentle breeze blew from outside the door, sweeping away the fragrance in the house.
He looked at it again, and the woman in front of him was still extremely beautiful, but he no longer felt his heartbeat, his blood was no longer stretching, and his breathing became calmer.
Li Zijin let out a sigh, "Sure enough, there is something wrong with that incense." ”
When his heart no longer rippled, the young man walked to the door, gently closed the door, sat back down at the tea table, put down the Cuiqu sword, and said apologetically: "I really can't get used to smelling that fragrance, which frightened the girl." Break the cage of sandalwood, and I will compensate the girl. ”
After that, the green shirt took out a gold leaf from his arms, and there were two gold leaves on the tea table at this moment, equivalent to 20,000 taels of gold, far exceeding the price of sandalwood.
The woman had also seen the wind and waves, and she didn't feel frightened, but she didn't expect this guest to be so good, much more powerful than the group of martial artists under the owner of Kaoyufang.
She suddenly realized: "Childe is talking about 'Hehuan', right? There is this kind of incense in all the major green buildings in Kaoyufang, is it possible that Gongzi is the first time to come to this kind of place?"
Li Zijin rolled his eyes, "Sort of." ”
But the Oiran pushed the second gold leaf back in front of Li Zijin, shook his head and said, "Since I have already received the reward from the son, I can no longer take the money privately, this is the rule of the painting boat." Besides, a cage of acacia incense can't cost so much money, it's nothing more than ten taels of silver, and the reward given by the son is enough, and there is no need for compensation. ”
Acacia?
As soon as you hear the name, you know it's not a good thing!
Li Zijin raised the teacup with palpitations, took a big sip of tea, patted his chest, and thought that it was good that he made a quick decision and solved this hidden danger early, otherwise if he kept smelling the so-called acacia incense, what might happen······
The teacher's girl, after seeing Li Zijin throw the acacia incense out of the room, dared to look directly at her face, and asked curiously: "The acacia incense will make men and women feel affection for each other, why didn't the son dare to look at me when there was incense in the room just now." Now that the incense is gone, Childe is starting to stare at me instead?"
The young swordsman in green shirt in front of her brought her too many "accidents".
She asked herself that she had seen many men in the world, and she had already grasped all kinds of men's thoughts to death, and she suddenly couldn't see through the thoughts of the young guest in front of her, who looked a little smaller than herself.
It's like the young swordsman in green shirt in front of him, who is also covered with a layer of "veil", hazy, vague, and difficult to see the true face.
Women's yarn on the face.
The yarn of the teenager is in the heart.
They all exist for the purpose of "not letting ordinary people easily snoop on".
Li Zijin didn't bother the woman to make tea for herself, but personally lifted the mandarin duck pot, and after carefully examining the mechanism on the handle of the mandarin duck pot, he poured himself a cup of tea, and replied as a matter of course: "I already have a sweetheart below." There is acacia incense in the house, which makes me confused, and when I look at the girl, I am very amazed, and I am slightly moved, so I naturally dare not look at it for a long time. When I found something unusual, I threw away the acacia incense, my mood was peaceful, and I looked at the girl again, her face had not changed, and she was still extremely beautiful, but although the girl was beautiful, she would not let her heart move. Since I can get along with the girl with a normal heart now, I naturally don't need to deliberately avoid the girl's face. ”
She was dumbfounded.
It was as if the guest, as soon as he threw away the acacia incense, immediately went from being a poor speaker to being able to talk to her.
Moreover, this young swordsman in green shirts said it rightly, as if he completely blamed the slight excitement in his mouth on the acacia incense in the house. Why, can't it be because she's good-looking, so she is excited?
Women also have a desire to win, especially an Oiran like her.
The rumored teacher girl tilted her head instantly, didn't look at the young man in green shirt, pouted and said: "It's a high-sounding thing, since you already have a sweetheart, then what are you doing in this kind of place to look for flowers and ask willows? It's all one thing of words, and another thing to do. ”
Naturally, it wasn't what she was talking about.
After saying that, she quietly peeked at the guest on the other side of the table, who was naturally different from others, and found that he slapped his head, as if he suddenly remembered something.
A word wakes up the dreamer.
Li Zijin was so delirious by the acacia incense in the house just now that he almost forgot the purpose of his trip, and at this moment he was asked by the girl, "Since you already have a sweetheart, what are you going to do?", the young man recalled that he wanted to find this well-informed teacher girl who had seen many big names in Zhengguo Temple, and asked her about Qiao Hongmiao's interpersonal relationships, the division of forces in Qiao's mansion, etc., everything about Qiao's mansion, he wanted to know.
In order to protect himself, Lu Gaoyang has already run away, and now that Li Zijin has made up his mind to spend the winter with his little junior sister in Jinhuai City, he naturally needs to solve Qiao Hongmiao's trouble.
Either kill him or send him to jail.
And Qiao's Mansion is an existence that covers the sky with one hand in Zheng Guo, no matter what you think, Li Zijin must think about it in the long run.
The young man pushed back the second gold leaf that the woman had pushed to his desk, and said, "The senior girl reminded me that I came to Kaoyufang and did ask for something." ”
She showed a smile of "sure enough", looked at the young swordsman in green shirt playfully, and felt that the crows in the world were really black, and there could be no lustful men in the world?
Even if there were, it wouldn't appear in this flower street and willow alley.
"As I said just now, you can't accept any more gold and silver from guests after you've already received the bounty, and that's what makes it difficult for me to do that. The Oiran looked down at the second golden leaf and frowned slightly.
Li Zijin shook his head and quickly explained: "This money is not paid to Kaoyufang, I want to ask the teacher girl for some news." ”
The smile on the woman's face stopped abruptly, and she hesitated for a moment before asking, "What do you want to ask?"
The young man pointed to the two gold leaves, "Please also ask the teacher, girl, be sure to accept it first, and then I'll ask." ”
"It seems that the question that Childe wants to ask is a very troublesome question. She smiled bitterly, and took two gold leaves, but one was put in her sleeve, and the other was taken by her to a trap box on the edge of the bed. Between her demeanor, she didn't hide anything from the young swordsman in green shirts for the first time, as if he was already worthy of her trust despite the short contact time.
Two gold leaves.
One to male.
One against private.
Very conservative approach.
"You have to leave a way for yourself, don't you?" said the Oiran when she had "quietly" put away the second gold leaf, and sat back down at the tea table, this time closer to him, not across the table, but on either side of the adjacent table.
The two of them need to face each other.
Li Zijin empathized with this sentence, nodded and agreed: "No matter when, you have to leave a way back for yourself." ”
"Just ask. She smiled like a flower.
————
Jinhuai Bookstore.
By the pond in the backyard of the bookstore, the girl Hongshao squatted on the ground, holding a bag of bait in her hand, and kept feeding the koi in the pond.
Beside her, sat a pale paper figure named "Nothing". Now the little one is not "pale" anymore.
Staying with teenagers and girls every day, he was often carried by Hong Shao to run all over the ground, which not only absorbed the aura of heaven and earth, but also contaminated with the fireworks of the world.
The face of nothing gradually began to turn bloody.
The little guy was propping his hands upside down on the edge of the pond, a pair of paper legs swaying, he tilted his head slightly from time to time, peeking at the beautiful white-clothed girl beside him, thinking how could there be such a good-looking woman in the world.
No matter how you look at it, you can't get tired of it.
The little paper man will also be tempted.
"It's okay, do you say senior brother will come back tonight?" The girl stopped what she was doing, looked up at the starry sky, it was almost time, and three hours had passed since Li Zijin went out to run errands.
Although when the young man was leaving, he had already instructed Hong Shao to tell her to close the doors and windows at night and go to bed early, it was very likely that he would not return to the Flying Snow Inn tonight, because there were many things to ask clearly.
But the girl still looked forward to her brother returning to the inn early at night, otherwise she would probably have to sleep alone for the first time in her "life".
Nothing muttered: "Didn't Li Zijin say that he won't come back tonight, then he shouldn't come back, he always counts." ”
If Li Zijin was here, he would definitely mention that the little guy would teach him a good lesson, is talking and counting used in this kind of place? It's too comforting, isn't it?!
The girl in white frowned, pinned a hosta on her head, and now this hosta is not only red and white, but there is a faint golden thread on the hosta.
Can be changed to the stars and moons.
The old man in the Confucian shirt staggered out into the backyard, draped in a thick coat and occasionally coughing.
After the indoctrination, he is no longer a monk on the top of the mountain. It's just an old man in his last years, and he can't be in the cold at will and be unaware.
"Hongshao, it's not too early, go back and rest. The old man's voice was a little hoarse, and the wind was strong at night, blowing the frosty hair on the old man's sideburns, and his figure became thinner and thinner in the wind.
The girl Hongshao snorted, nodded obediently, put the paper figure in the palm of her hand, and jumped up the stairs of the Flying Snow Inn.
The old man watched the girl leave, and found that she suddenly turned around and asked, "Grandpa, who knows everything, are you sick?"
Nothing hung in the palm of the girl in white, silently looking at the mortal in the courtyard who was no longer supernatural.
The old man in the Confucian shirt still had a familiar kind smile on his face, and he waved his hand at the girl on the stairs, "No." ”
How simple the girl is, what to listen to and believe, her eyes are bent into crescents, she said goodbye with a smile, and jumped back to the room with the paper figure without anything.
And the old man in the Confucian shirt stretched out his hand out of his sleeve and watched a snowflake slowly fall on his palm, a cold gradually melted, and then the temperature of his palm was transformed into a warm current.
The old man had not felt the weight of a snowflake for many years.
At his level, it is not much worse than a chance to become a god, everything depends on whether he wants to or not, whether he wants to or not.
Once, when the wind, frost, rain and snow fell, he would retreat by himself, and even the corners of his clothes could not be wet.
Now, the old man has put this seemingly miraculous power, but in fact lacks the smell of fireworks, into the koi hosta.
I hope that girl can carry out his path and the avenue of swaying to the end with the purest nine-trick exquisite heart in heaven and earth.
Take the matter of "indisputable" to a higher place.
The old man felt the process of the snowflakes melting in the palm of his hand, from cold to hot, and also felt the pale and powerless feeling of aging, and felt the change of years and the passage of life.
He had a vision in his heart that kept reverberating above the lake of his heart.
May the world be like this piece of snow.
From cold to warm.
————
Before dawn, in the boudoir of the huge painting boat on the Kaoyu River, a young man walked out.
Dressed in a green shirt and carrying a sword behind his back, the morning breeze gently brushed the young man's face, and his sideburns were flying.
The young swordsman in green shirt spent the whole night just trying to figure out one thing.
One thing about Zheng Guo, about Qiao's mansion.
He got the answer he wanted, and the teacher girl was extremely cooperative.
The painting boat docks.
Li Zijin stood outside the boudoir of the Oiran, clasped his fists inside, and said gratefully: "Thank you girl for solving my doubts tonight, the coming day is long, the girl please cherish it, and say goodbye in the future." ”
She walked out of the room before dawn for the first time, and had put on her veil again, this rarely sentimental woman, remembering that Li Zijin praised her for having a fairy aura on her body, like a water hibiscus.
The woman's posture was curling, holding the golden leaf in her hand, looking at the young swordsman in green shirt who was gradually moving away, she gently rubbed the "golden branch and jade leaf", and laughed at herself: "How can you not get stained when you get out of the mud?"
