Today, Youyue did not return to the private room with Liu Ruiying and others.

Instead, I went up one floor at a time and walked directly into the room on the fifth floor.

The previously empty house, at some point, has been placed with a huge round table.

The dishes on it are exactly the same as those of Chang Yishan.

A pot of wine is not a lot.

There are a lot of girls.

For a moment, Liu Ruiying was in a trance.

It seems that what just happened is not real.

It's as if you're only going to start drinking this flower wine now.

It's just that he noticed something strange about the floor in this room.

At first glance, it seems to be covered with a fine layer of white sand.

But the feeling of stepping on it is not the softness of grit.

It's a bit blunt.

The white particles on the soles of the boots and on the ground make a "creaking" sound.

Make people have to be careful with every step.

Because the sound is really disturbing.

I don't want to hear more.

Fortunately, the cacophony was soon muffled by everyone's laughter.

If you don't pay attention to listening, you can't leak a single thing.

Liu Ruiying quietly touched the soles of her shoes.

Through the light, I looked at the particles on my hands.

It turned out to be pearl powder.

It's just that the level of grinding is not at home.

Presumably the gravel is bigger.

Liu Ruiying was puzzled.

Why is there a moon sprinkled with pearl powder on this earth?

The first thought was that he must be hiding something.

But if you want to cover it up and prevent everyone from coming to this fifth layer, won't everything be fine?

Why bother sparing a lot of money to spread a layer of pearl powder on the entire ground.

Pearls are colorless and odorless.

Although it can't emit any breath on its own.

But pearls have one characteristic.

That is, no matter what the breath is, it can absorb it.

Keep the air clear and clear at all times.

There is a moon waiting for everyone to go up to the fifth floor.

In fact, it is a sense of gratitude.

After all, the fifth floor of this Mingyue Tower is his own residence.

Even Chang Yishan never came up.

Now he feasts in his dwellings, which can be regarded as a thought.

It is more important than a few floors downstairs.

Liu Ruiying saw that Chang Yishan seemed to be more substantial than before.

He knew that this trick had worked.

Sometimes one has to admire the sophistication of these businessmen.

After staying in the world for a long time, many people want to be immortals.

But businessmen don't.

They just want to be human.

I just want to live in the world for the rest of my life.

Immortals don't need to eat and drink, and their longevity is the same as that of the sky.

They are not jealous either.

There is no extravagant hope.

I just want to make more silver taels.

If you can live for twenty years, you will enjoy twenty years.

Perhaps it is these ordinary mindsets.

So much so that there are always many businessmen who live a long life.

One is that they live in abundance.

Eating and wearing are the best.

Second, even if you are sick, you can afford to spend a lot of money, and invite the best Lang Zhong to see the disease.

That old ghost Ye, isn't he just a master who only recognizes money and doesn't accept fate?

A good doctor's words are better than a quack doctor's thousand medicines.

But Liu Ruiying couldn't know what was hidden under this layer of pearl powder.

After all, no one can really see through the autumn water.

Therefore, there is no visible puddle of undried blood stains covered by pearl powder.

However, the blood in the air was indeed sucked up by these pearl powders.

Qingqian was still sitting beside Liu Ruiying.

Since she accompanied Liu Ruiying to drink tonight, she can only accompany Liu Ruiying to drink alone tonight.

That's the rule in the Wind Moon Field.

Within one session.

One woman does not serve two masters.

When Liu Ruiying was in Zhongdu, she was very sympathetic to those dusty women.

I always feel that the smile on their face is not thorough enough.

Although the skin laughs and laughs.

But it's just something worse than the average smile.

He found out later.

Those smiles are in vain.

But there is no trace of verve.

Thinking about this, I felt more pity for them.

Compared with the eldest lady of those gate valve families, these girls can be said to be in dire straits every day.

Speaking of which, Liu Ruiying didn't think that these girls were necessarily worse than those gate valve disciples.

It's just that being born is destined to be so different.

In contrast, he felt that these girls were much more positive.

At least every day, they are living with their hearts, instead of messing around.

What Liu Ruiying didn't know was.

Zhao Mingming's thoughts in his heart at this moment turned out to be exactly the same as him.

This may be considered a good idea.

It's just that Zhao Mingming's heart is full of warmth at the moment.

Although these girls do not live as rich as themselves.

No expensive jewelry.

There is also no fine grinding rouge.

I can't afford to wear a hundred taels of silver and a foot of brocade.

But they all have a hope in their hearts.

Whether it's good or bad.

At the very least, there is a desire for something that might happen.

This longing is like a child, growing up little by little in the heart.

There is love, there is pampering.

It's no different from life.

If a person just stays in the yard where a hundred flowers bloom and watches the flowers bloom and the clouds roll up, it is no different from the canary that will be locked in a cage.

Canaries are expensive though.

The coat color is cute.

But the caged bird is just a landscape, a plaything after all.

In contrast, the ominous crows that spend their days noisy overhead.

On the contrary, it is much more cheerful and chic.

As everyone knows, the crows in the sky are envious when they see the canary's fine clothes and food.

The caged bird laments that he has never been able to spread his wings and fly high.

But this lament is heard in people's ears.

But it is the beginning and the end, like the sound of heaven.

Zhao Mingming sighed.

I poured myself a glass of wine and drank it all.

Suddenly she smiled.

This smile made the jade abacus with the moon and the pearl powder all over the ground lose their luster.

This smile also made Liu Ruiying a little frightened.

He didn't know why Zhao Mingming laughed to himself.

Are you laughing at yourself?

When people care so much, they become extremely sensitive.

The other party's words and deeds will be involved in their own body to confirm.

This is also the meaning of lovesickness.

But Zhao Mingming is now sitting next to Liu Ruiying.

He was only two feet away.

But where does the lovesickness come from?

But Liu Ruiying was still thinking about her in her heart.

Sitting face to face, but I can't stop thinking about it.

This lovesickness, I'm afraid it's in my bones.

It's just that Liu Ruiying doesn't admit it herself.

"Why is Miss Zhao laughing?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

He didn't want to ask.

But I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart.

If you don't ask to understand, I'm afraid that I will be absent-minded if I drink food tonight.

"Just a little happy. Nothing. ”

Zhao Mingming said.

"Happy what?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

He wondered if something had happened when he had just gone out to chase the mysterious man.

But this is also a bit of an afterthought.

How can you laugh now?

"Alas......"

Zhao Mingming sighed again.

"Wasn't you still happy just now, why are you sighing again?"

Liu Ruiying asked again.

Zhao Mingming smiled.

Even his mood was relaxed.

Zhao Mingming sighed.

Even with his mood, he was pinched.

"I'm happy because I think I'm real and brave. ”

Zhao Mingming said.

But what to be brave, she didn't say.

By bravery, she meant that she was able to make up her mind to escape from that cage.

Although I don't know how far I can fly and how high I can fly.

But at least it's flying now.

"I sigh because it's a little late in my decision. ”

Zhao Mingming continued.

Still only half a sentence.

So Liu Ruiying was a little foggy and confused.

Zhao Mingming means to:

If she had made up her mind to fly earlier, perhaps the current situation would have been very different.

But sooner or later, the moment is the most important.

So she raised a glass of wine and wanted to clink glasses with Liu Ruiying.

It's just that when Liu Ruiying picked up the wine glass, Zhao Mingming retracted her hand again.

"Where's your little bowl?"

Zhao Mingming asked.

By the way, he was extremely naughty, and winked at Liu Ruiying.

Liu Ruiying herself forgot about drinking with a jade bowl.

I didn't expect Zhao Mingming to remember it so well.

He looked down and saw that there were only plates of chopsticks and wine glasses in front of him.

I was just a little happy in my heart.

Qingqian poured the jade bowl full of wine and handed it over.

"Miss, do you feel a little cold?"

Sugar-fried chestnuts touched their arms and said.

Wouldn't it warm up with two more glasses of wine?

Tang Zhongsong said.

The sugar-fried chestnuts stuck out their tongues and were noncommittal.

The cup of the moon is filled with water.

After calming down, he still doesn't like to drink.

Merely.

The more you drink it, the hotter it gets.

The more you drink the water, the colder it gets.

But Liu Ruiying looks at the moon today, where is there a trace of coldness?

"Although you are no longer here, it is not a better place to be. Maybe you can both be happier because of it. ”

Wait for Liu Ruiying to finish drinking the wine in the jade bowl.

Zhao Mingming turned her head and said lightly.

"I don't know what happened to you. But without these changes, the two of you would not be as wonderful as you are today. Firewood, rice, oil and salt seem to be very tranquil and leisurely, but in fact it is an extremely consuming thing. It has consumed the passion of the past, and it has also consumed the passion of the future. ”

Zhao Mingming continued.

"But first, you can miss each other. Nostalgia for the passions you once had. The more I think about these things, the more precipitated they become, and the sweeter they become. Everyone has their own number of lives. You can't force him, but he shouldn't bother you anymore. ”

Zhao Mingming drank another glass of wine and said.

Liu Ruiying was sandwiched between the two girls.

I was at a loss to hear it.

Zhao Mingming asked the sugar-fried chestnuts to take out a gold-inlaid jade hairpin, and then handed it to Qingqian.

Light eyes lit up.

I can see that she likes it very much.

It's just that she didn't accept it.

Although she is a dusty woman.

But such an unclear reward is not to be wanted.

If she wants.

Qingqian would rather go to drink with more people and even sleep.

But he will not directly accept the inexplicable benefits of others.

Because she thinks it through.

This man is no different from the things in the pawnshop.

This Mingyue Building is also a pawnshop.

It's just that the things that come in with the pawn are all the same girls as the light.

While they were drinking and sleeping with others, someone temporarily ransomed them out.

The wine was gone, and the night was gone.

They should be taken back again.

I don't think it's a shame.

Although many times, it is up to you to be redeemed by someone, and how long it will take you back to do so.

But at least he didn't hurt anyone else.

It is better to pawn yourself as an object, but you cannot lose your last dignity and conscience.

This is the strictest rule in the heart of the shallow.

"Actually, it's not as bleak as you say, Miss. Time and people, there is always something wrong. If we were all right, maybe we could sit together and drink and talk somehow. ”

Said lightly.

"It's hard to get the time and people right. ”

Liu Ruiying finally ate a few bites of food.

As soon as the meatballs in his mouth were swallowed, he grabbed the words and said.

For this issue.

He wasn't very impressed.

But there were people who felt it deeply and said something similar to him.

When Liu Ruiying first started training in the Investigation Division, his movements were very sensitive.

He jokingly told the old stableman that if he went to be a thief, he would definitely be rich.

But the old stableman went and said meaningfully:

"There are a lot of people in the world who don't do what they're good at, half because they're not good at it, and the other half you know why?"

Liu Ruiying couldn't think of it.

What's more, the old stable's words have always been self-questioning and self-answering.

His interrogative sentence seemed to be just a pause in his own thinking.

It's not really waiting for Liu Ruiying's answer.

"The other half didn't do it because they were lazy. ”

The old stableman said.

"Lazy? I don't believe that if you are good at good things, and if you can make people rich and promoted, someone will be too lazy to do it. ”

Liu Ruiying scoffed.

Many times he had this attitude towards the old stable.

In the beginning, it was indeed just because of youth and frivolity.

I have always been critical of these words.

But later.

He found it to be a very good trick.

As long as you refute it, criticize it, and don't recognize it.

The old stableman will explain in more detail.

In fact, the old horse also knew Liu Ruiying's thoughts.

The two of them tacitly agreed.

"It's because I'm good at it that I'm too lazy to do it. ”

The old stableman said.

He subconsciously touched his waist.

I found that my cigarette stick was gone.

Then there was a lack of interest.

"People who are good at it have a much higher starting point than others, so they always think about when they can do it. Thinking about it is a lot slower than others. Once you fall behind, you are not convinced. But I still feel that as long as I do it, I can still catch up with the past. just dragged on day by day, until no matter how high the talent was, no matter how good the ability was, he couldn't catch up, so he gave up completely. ”

The old stableman said.

"Then you mean, there are flowers that can be broken straight and must be broken, and don't wait for no flowers and empty branches?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

He also dropped his bookbag in front of the old stable.

Because he always felt that the old stableman was uneducated.

So every time the old horse tells something extremely subtle and profound, and it is appropriate and true, Liu Ruiying will always get rid of his nerd.

Many times the allusions and poems quoted are not appropriate for the occasion, and he does not care.

As long as the words of the people who are full of words come out, I feel that I am much better than the old stable.

"I didn't let you steal!"

The old stableman couldn't touch his cigarette stick, and his mood was a little irritable.

I got up and wanted to leave.

"But what you mean is that what you are good at should be done as soon as possible, as soon as possible. ”

Liu Ruiying said with a smile.

"Even between best friends, there are misunderstandings. So there are often many sides to a little thing. If you only think about the worst, you will naturally be a thief. What if you think about the good?"

The old stableman left without looking back.

"If you don't do what you're good at, you're abusing yourself!"

A word came from afar.

It's just that Liu Ruiying has been competing with her brains for so many years, and she hasn't found any bright side of being a thief.

But the light words just now gave him some enlightenment.

"When I want to drink, I drink. The third half brother wants to drink all the time, so he drinks all the time. It's not the right time, it's the right people?"

Tang Zhongsong patted the shoulder of the wine next to him and said.

Three and a half years of wine, this will not drink.

is holding a whole spicy sheep's trotters and gnawing on a mouthful of oil.

"I found out that this dish is more delicious!"

The wine three halves chewed the meat in their mouths and said vaguely.

"Since you have wine, let's eat more and drink more!"

Today, Youyue looked at the wine and said.

He hadn't seen anyone eating like this in a long time.

It's like when I was a kid.

It's hard to have a piece of meat to eat at that time.

I dream of nibbling a sheep's hoof all day.

But when there is one, it is reluctant to eat.

When you take the first bite, it's exactly the same as the three halves of the wine now.

I want to chew and swallow that bone.

The difference is that the three halves of the wine are just eaten more wolf-eaten.

But now there is a moon, but I really smashed the sheep's hoof bone with a stone, chewed it hard, and ate it raw.

Today, Youyue turned her head slightly.

Not sure why.

The more he experienced, the more tears he had.

When I used to work hard, I thought that my head would fall off but there was a big scar.

Always fearless.

But now.

It's time for success.

But it is extremely easy to touch the scene.

He used to be very fond of listening to dramas.

It's not because I like the lyrics.

I just think that those dramas are smearing their big faces and bouncing on the stage is very interesting.

However, he hadn't heard a play in many years.

There was originally a stage in the Mingyue Building.

Later, after being abandoned for a long time, it was demolished.

Although there is a moon on the fifth floor, you can't hear the drama downstairs singing at all.

But as long as I think of a few people downstairs who interpret the temples and rivers and lakes in every square inch, a few words will tell the rise and fall of honor and disgrace.

It's not a taste in my heart.

"The opera you sang to me last time hasn't finished yet!"

Zhao Mingming said to Liu Ruiying.

"Childe can also sing?"

Qingqian asked in surprise.

"Uh...... Slightly one two. It's just singing and playing, and you can't get on the stage......"

Liu Ruiying waved her hand awkwardly and said.

"What is Childe singing?"

Light then asked.

"Bifang Wine"

Liu Ruiying said.

"Which paragraph?"

Light shallow is very interested in this.

"The monologue about Jiang Yuanwai. ”

Liu Ruiying said.

"In fact, Bifang wine also has a section of excerpts. ”

Said lightly.

"What do you mean?"

Liu Ruiying was puzzled.

"What we listen to is all drama texts, which can be regarded as internal excerpts. The outer excerpt is a side story that evolves based on the characters or singing segments in the play. ”

Said lightly.

"What is this excerpt called?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

"Farewell My Concubine". ”

Said lightly.

"Farewell My Concubine?

Liu Ruiying said.

"In just one paragraph, you will know what is special about this excerpt. ”

Said lightly.

Then he cleared his throat.

"The overlord is greedy in his dreams.

But I don't want to.

The enemy was ambushed on all sides.

It's hard to get rid of the sorrow outside the tent.

Raise your eyes, but see that the moon is clear.

In the autumn scene, the wild geese mourned.

After being together for several years, how can you bear to say goodbye today?

I want to be here, but the sky is the guarantee.

It is expected that this great enemy will also be difficult to show his body.

If they have to be suspended for three days.

In one fell swoop, the willows and flowers can be brightened.

The overlord is powerful and powerful, and even the whale is crossed.

Why is it difficult to move forward today and uncertain?

Xu is a soldier every day, and the case is hard work.

However, the white tiger shines on the stars.

But he shouldn't learn the thirteen elements of the jade version again.

......”

sang lightly here, but was stopped by Youyue waving his hand again and again.

Liu Ruiying looked up.

He was found to have red eyes.

It's just a little bit shorter, and I'm afraid the tears are about to overflow.

"It's really not interesting in the future. ”

Light stopped singing and said.

"What happened in the end?"

Liu Ruiying asked anxiously.

Zhao Mingming also frowned, wanting to know the result.

"Nothing came of it. is nothing more than a real concubine who mistakenly followed a fake overlord. ”

Picked up Liu Ruiying's jade bowl, took a shallow sip of wine and said.
