She looked back at Baili Shuang and said, "My son, you like this girl." ”

Kong Qing bowed his head heavily: "My son likes it." ”

Mrs. Baili was contemplative, although this girl was born poor, but poverty also has the benefits of poverty, she smiled and shook the empty hand, and said: "If you like it, you will leave her to serve you closely, and after a long time, you will accept the room, the young lady can't do it, and being a concubine is not an insult to her background." ”

"Shui Manjing" heard this clearly, and scolded in his heart, but he didn't want to attack on the spot, so he only smiled and said: "Thank you for your grace." ”

Mrs. Baili looked at Kongqing and said kindly: "You have a caring person to serve, and you can rest assured for your mother, now your body is getting better every day, and you have to pick up the things in this house slowly, you are the eldest son, and the property of this Baili family must not be robbed by that cheap embryo." ”

Kong Qingyuan didn't want to meddle in the affairs of the Baili family, he just wanted to make this illusion safe and secure, and took Luo Kui and Yu Li Ren out safely, but this matter was more and more out of his control, and now Luo Kui lived in the Baili family, if he had no power in his hands, with only this pitiful cultivation, it would be difficult to protect her, so he bowed his head and said: "Yes, my son has written it down, and he will start to take care of the affairs of the house tomorrow." ”

Mrs. Baili got up at this time, and before leaving, she looked back and instructed "Shui Manjing": "You can't wear this clothes, today ask Anai to teach you the rules of the house, and there will be no mistakes in the future." ”

With Mrs. Baili's instructions, Anai naturally taught dedication and strictness, taking advantage of the eldest young master's efforts to go to the master of Baili to discuss business, he led the "water manjing" to walk around the Baili house, where is the stove room, where is the embroidery room, what is the house where the second young master lives, what is the rules for the old lady to ask for peace, one by one as a number of family treasures said in detail, only the rules of serving the eldest young master to sleep are vague, "water manjing" is also heard in the clouds, incomprehensible.

After passing through the two hanging flower doors and returning to his house, the legs of "Shui Manjing" were soft and sore, and he was about to drink a cup of tea to rest, but he was picked up by Anai, saying that it was not in line with the rules of the Baili family to see her walking, and he had to teach one or two.

The blazing summer sun only stood under the sun for a moment, and then it made people dizzy and sweaty, "water cranberry" Basking in the bright sun, learning the rules of walking and speaking in the Baili family, it is really hard to see a board, when in the Temple of Heaven, although it is only in the forbidden land and the secluded residence, but only these two places, it is already a lot bigger than the Baili family, just the dumb cook and the dumb maid who serve the girls and the husband, there are dozens of people, but there is no such big rule, in addition to not leaving the house at will, a drink, a meal, a word and a deed are all at will, and there is little estrangement between the sisters, although the water mulberry branch has always been strict, but it is always close。

"Shui Manjing" sighed in his heart, whether this person is close to people or not has nothing to do with the size of the rules, only about people's hearts, if it is close, it is no rules, and it is also close, if it is alienated and estranged, it is a good rule, and it is in vain.

She is standing under the sun, it seems that she is learning the rules, but her heart has already flown thousands of miles away, and she has not fallen on this rule, and the heart is the Dragon Boat Festival three days later, if she misses it, the phoenix soul will not be able to hit it with one blow, she is constantly thinking about how to do it to get what she wants in the Dragon Boat Festival, and how to get out after the fact.

As she was distracted, a slender rattan struck her ankle, and the bone was painful, and she frowned at Anais.

Anai sat under the porch, raised his eyebrows disdainfully, and said: "You can't shake your elbows when you walk, you can't swing your steps, who can you make that foxy tone to." ”

Fox, fox cunning, charming is coquettish, "water vine" sneered lowly, if you are as smart as a fox, as charming as a flower, then this fox is really a good word, thinking about it, but there is a touch of shade above the head, Kongqing held the umbrella, and said with a smile: "When you still have such rules, it is really rare." ”

"Shui Manjing" pouted: "The rules of the Baili family are so big, and they don't make you stupid, and you are also very rare." ”

Kong Qing raised her lips and smiled, and said lightly at Anai: "Anai, you go to the embroidery room and get Manjing's clothes back, the maids in the house can't wear red, Manjing's red clothes are out of place." Seeing her reluctantly go out, he turned his eyes and smiled: "Let's go, I'll take you out for a walk." ”

————————————

Outside the illusion, Pingyang City of Changhe Kingdom, the city in the veins and slanting light is exceptionally calm and heavy.

Thirty miles outside Pingyang City, the clouds cover the fog all the year round, you can faintly hear the sound of gurgling water, step into the depths of the clouds and mist, it is actually a winding path through the secluded, the stone bridge is horizontal, the moss is dark, a wild scene of banyan trees climbing vines, and the stone bridge bridgehead stands with a black lacquer boulder more than one person high, the word "stone forest" in bright red on the book, this boulder has been eroded by wind and frost for thousands of years, has been full of vicissitudes, but still stands, and the handwriting is more and more bright red and dazzling, particularly breathtaking.

Walking across the stone bridge, into the eye is the charming place of thousands of mountains and strange stones, those through the vicissitudes of the sea, the changes of the years polished out of the gray-black stone pinnacle stone pillars, or sleeping or lying, or hanging or tilting, or raising the sky, pointing straight to the blue sky, or jagged, strange and indescribable, like a vast and endless dark forest, and the gray and white sky edge is far away.

In this endless stone forest, the wind gusts day and night, the gloom hovers, the cold to the bone, and the sound of whimpering almost swallows people's hearts. Legend has it that there are countless dry bones buried deep here, because they are nameless, I don't know where they came from, and no one worships after death, so these thousands of years of loneliness are deeply condensed, and the yin qi is pressed and not dispersed.

Passing through this strange stone forest, the yin qi suddenly disappeared, but it was a cold winter, and there was no warmth in the veins and slanting sun, and the thin golden red penetrated the curling mist not far away, shrouding a vast and ethereal palace city.

The palace city is full of luxury, the colorful glazed tile roof, the warm white jade pier, all in the slanting glow, and the twelve golden silk nanmu columns, support an empty and solemn hall, the pillars are carved with different forms of Teng snakes, the face is hideous and circling up, each of them is a fist of the East China Sea Divine Pearl, but this East China Sea Divine Pearl, but the East China Sea Divine Pearl, even the scattered water lines, are also as black as ink.

The plaque on the door of this hall is hung high, and the three big characters of "Ten Thousand Poison Sect" are written impressively. This piece of palace is extremely magnificent, and it looks like the richest and most wonderful thing in the world, but it is really an ancient emperor's mausoleum, where countless former people are buried.

Thousands of years ago, the princes of Changhe country were numerous, no one obeyed anyone, no one let anyone, several wars under the fisherman profited, the position of the lord of the country was finally usurped by a king with a different surname, this ancient imperial tomb that buried the lords of the past dynasties, naturally became a thorn in his eye, and after several bargains with the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect was charged with digging graves and digging graves for the royal family, crushing bones and ashes, and the lord of the country punished and rewarded secretly, and returned this place to Bao Duier and gave it to this sect.

Since then, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect and the descendants of this king with a different surname have been tied together, firmly controlling the Changhe Kingdom for nearly a thousand years, with both glory and loss.

Passing through the main hall, opposite to it, is the altar that occupies a very wide area, more than ten zhang high, and on each black boulder that piles up the altar, there is an auspicious cloud carved, and the auspicious clouds flutter, faintly revealing the Teng snake that is connected from end to end. Climb the stairs, and there are eight pillars standing in the center of the altar, all carved with four wings and three heads of snakes, spitting lotus-shaped jade beads, emitting a circle of red ripples, constantly attacking into the distance, echoing with the water patterns emitted by the sea god beads in the east of the main hall, slowly connecting with each other, and finally merging into one, and dispersing in the void.

Behind the altar is a row of large and small houses, one of which is magnificent, in which the golden silk nanmu supports the towering cloud top, the best century-old jade pier, the shining round bead is the lamp, and the East China Sea Divine Pearl is worthless to wear into a curtain, the breeze passes, making a light sound, as pleasant as the sound of the heavens.

In this hall, even the tables and chairs are made of yin and yang fragrant wood, and are not decorated with ordinary carvings, but seal countless colorful lotus in it, the lotus petals are fresh and exquisite, the stamens are delicate and recognizable, and the colorful light flows out slowly.

Where there is extreme luxury, there is an indispensable place where the world is extremely depressed, showing the prosperity and loneliness of the world.

The rows of houses are more imposing the closer you get to the altar, and the more narrow and uninhabited you are the narrower ones that are not inhabited, some of them have accumulated a thick layer of dust, while others are more than half ruined.

"Squeak", someone pushed open a mottled wooden door covered with light dust, as if pushing open a period of old time that had been sealed in dust for a long time, exuding a yellowing musty smell, and the cold wind whistling into the house, the already cold room, in an instant, even colder dripping into ice.

The man gently put down a food box and said in a low voice: "Young master, let's eat, today's subordinates made stewed meat with winter bamboo shoots, and the young master can taste it." ”

A gray light slanted into the dark and dreary room, a thin bed was placed on the base of the wall, and the gray and sudden broken quilt was pushed in the corner, where a thin shadow moved, and a dark voice slowly revealed: "What do you spend this effort doing, this bowl of meat sounds easy, and it costs you a lot of energy." ”

The man twitched the tip of his nose slightly, and pretended to be relaxed: "It's not bothersome, that is, to say hello to the stove room, my subordinates have been walking for more than half a year, and the young master has lost a lot of weight." He wiped the worn-out table with his sleeve, put a dish and a meal on the table, bowed down and said, "Young master, my subordinates are serving you to eat." ”

The Shadow sighed softly, and struggled to move out of bed into the dim sun in front of the table, revealing its terrifying face.
