Her eyes shrank slightly, gradually getting colder, stuffed the melon seeds into Su Zi's arms, and clapped her hands: "You eat slowly, I'll go up and take a look, in case I can choose a name, can't I also promise a good family in the future." ”

Su Zi choked up and laughed: "What do you want, return the first name, unless the examiner is blind." He also stared at the man on the high platform, not surprised, but just thinking that it was not a good sign that the people of the demon clan frequently appeared in the human race.

Luo Kui turned around and sneered, walked briskly on the Hongqiao, first paid five taels of silver at the head of the bridge for registration, and then passed the primary election at the end of the bridge, and paid another fifteen taels of silver, and pasted a number plate on the body.

She walked slowly and calmly, while breaking her fingers and carefully calculated an account, this person is fifteen taels, ten people is one hundred and fifty taels, she raised her eyes to look at each other, from the side of the high platform to the girl at the end of the bridge, Wu Yang can not see the end at a glance, there are not a thousand people but also eight hundred, this is a lot of money, for this huge amount of money, I am afraid that in addition to the limbs, or its ugliness, it is estimated that everyone can pass this primary election.

From the morning breeze to the afternoon, until the sun was shining at noon, and finally to the sunflower, she wiped a handful of sweat beads, came in a hurry, and did not bring a pipa, but this beauty pageant is really intimate, and she even rented musical instruments, of course, she had to pay for silver.

She went around to the back of the high platform, only to find that there is a hole behind the high platform, and it is also an elegant and delicate three-story small building, connected to the high platform, she didn't have time to take a closer look at the mystery in this building, took out ten taels of silver, rented a pipa, it was still a rare luodian five-string pipa in the world, stretched out her hand and gently plucked, sure enough, the sound was extraordinary, like a heavenly sound.

Calmly and leisurely walked on the stage, Luo Kui's body moved slightly, and she glanced at it quickly, she was not mistaken, that day's cyan figure was indeed a familiar person, it was the empty green of the dragon clan, but now he had Su Zi's unique mask on his face, and he was a person of the demon clan, and his cultivation was profound, and he could only see that he was disguised, but he couldn't see what his true face was.

A pipa song amazed the audience, the empty blue eyes flowed, and I looked at Luo Kwai for a long time, only to feel that her body was very familiar, but her appearance was extremely unfamiliar.

Luo Kui slowly walked down the high platform with the pipa in his arms, quietly glanced at Kong Qing again, and looked at the man standing beside him with a respectful attitude, who was the person behind the scenes of the four buildings, he sometimes leaned over and whispered, sometimes served tea and poured water, and worshiped Kong Qing like a god, that must be the one who knew Kong Qing's identity, she thought silently, the people behind the scenes of these four buildings are demon clans, Kong Qing is also a demon clan, and they happen to appear here together, this must not be a coincidence, she stared at the girls who took the stage one after another, and suddenly felt ominous.

This huge selection of peony beauties, from the morning to dusk, the sky illusion of the sunset flowing color, cast on the river surface, set off half of the river and half of the river red waves.

On the other side of the high platform, thousands of onlookers gathered, and they were interested in judging the girls who appeared on the stage one after another, pointing and pointing, and when they met the girls they were familiar with, they were full of applause, and they wanted to show off with the people around them proudly.

Although each flower into its own eyes, since ancient times the judgment of beauty has its own sayings, some people love beauty in the bones but not in the skin, and some people love the deep meaning and truth, but in the end it all falls on a beautiful word, no matter what it is, it must be beautiful enough.

Luo Kui expected to be good, although he was a pipa, but the appearance was really not extremely beautiful, a song of pipa ended, the first round she was brushed down, there was no chance to make people judge again, let alone experience the mysterious last round, she could only wait and see, how the people on the high platform, how to judge the top ten women selected and Kao three or not.

The silver-haired, young-looking boss of the four buildings slowly walked up to the high platform and said loudly: "Everyone, after a fierce competition, this year's Kao top three have been selected, that is, the three pots in front of the below, as expected, are still Wei Zi, Yao Huang and Ou Bi." ”

Hearing this, the onlookers were in an uproar, every year the Kao is selected, and the selection is all these three, there is no freshness at all, and after a few sighs, they have put their eyes on the peony beauty to be selected later.

Luo Kui looked at each other across the bank with great interest, although the three pots of peonies were waiting to be put away, but the buds were huge, quite rich and fragrant, and they were really not extraordinary, but I didn't know how to talk about the two words.

"Suzi, you said that people choose the king of flowers, they all choose it, why do they choose the king of flowers, choose the one that doesn't open, this can see which pot is beautiful and which pot is ugly after it is opened. Luo Kui ate melon seeds with relish, leaning against the railing to watch the excitement.

Su Zi pursed his lips and said sarcastically: "What kind of flowers to look at, how interesting it is to look at beauties." ”

The voice fell, and the ten girls selected walked to the stage, standing dignified behind the three pots of peonies, although these girls were all wearing the same dresses, no hairpin rings and no powder, but they were still more beautiful than flowers.

As soon as these girls came to the stage, they aroused a burst of admiration and exclamation from everyone in the audience, although these girls have their own merits, they are indeed beautiful and amazing.

Su Zi looked at the three beauties on the high platform, then turned his head to look at Luo Kui, and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, those people are really not blind." ”

Luo Kui glanced at Su Zi and continued to eat melon seeds.

Su Zi was bored, and said in a low voice: "The selection of this peony beauty has been in Xunyang City in ancient times, and the selection has become more and more lively over the years, and the selected beauties have all married into high-ranking families, and they did not bring a penny dowry, but earned a lot of dowry, even if they were unsuccessful, as long as they entered the top ten, there were also a lot of good people who offered rich dowries and came to ask for marriage." ”

Luo Kui smiled lowly: "Pay a few dozen taels of silver and fight for a future that will make you rich from now on, this is simply unprofitable, no wonder so many families with girls are rushing to send girls to be candidates." ”

"But the strange thing is that in the past fifteen or sixteen years, none of the peony beauties who married into a high-ranking family have ever returned. Su Zi lowered his voice and said.

Luo Kui was slightly stunned, and said suspiciously: "Have you never been back to your parents' house, what about other girls?" ”

"Nope. Su Zi shook his head: "It's strange here, all the other girls are normal, only those peony beauties, since they got married, their mother's family has never seen them again, and those who ask to marry them are not locals in Xunyang City, they gave a high dowry, married the girl and left, and the mother's family is nowhere to be found." ”

Luo Kui's doubts deepened: "That, that's not, isn't this abduction." ”

Su Zi patted Luo Kui's head and scolded with a smile: "People have three books and six ceremonies, the Ming media is marrying, what kind of abduction, it's just a bit strange about this thing, it's okay if you don't see anyone, I have carefully inquired about it, and I don't even have a letter to the family, this person just can't see anyone alive or dead." ”

Luo Kui frowned and stared: "Once every three years, they are all girls who have just reached the end of the year, and after fifteen or six years, there are more than a dozen girls." She was full of suspicions: "Suzi, this is not right, these girls have no news, and their parents are not looking for them." ”

Su Zi patted the railing: "It's strange here, why don't you look for it." ”

Luo Kui narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly remembered that it was recorded on a certain fragment that the demon clan had a kind of exercise, which was fused with the fragrance of flowers and the fragrance of the woman's body, and the sacrifice of the woman's bones and blood was used to cultivate with miraculous effects, but it was unknown how to cultivate this exercise.

Since Kong Qing and the people behind the scenes of these four buildings are all demon clans, then, perhaps, choosing Kao to choose peony beauties will eventually fall on this exercise.

The boss of the four buildings waved his hand, and a small servant stepped forward with a plain white cup, resting on the flower table in front of the three pots of peonies, the small lid was very tight, and he couldn't see what was in the cup, only a wisp of pale white heat escaped from the gap.

The boss of the fourth building coughed lightly: "Everyone, the top three peony beauty competition has begun, please ask the tenth girl to make peace with Kao first." ”

The words fell, and the girl at the end of the team took the incense burner in the maid's hand, and a short piece of incense in the furnace slowly burned, and she slowly walked behind the three pots of peonies, her expression was a little nervous and twisted.
