Volume 2 The Turbulent Darkness Rises and the Turmoil is Unsettled Chapter 189 Reminiscences of the Dead
I only heard Jiang Li hidden in the shadows, and laughed in a low voice: "Little demon girl, you are fat into a round East China Sea Divine Pearl, and you still eat so much sugar, aren't you afraid." ”
Luo Kui took a breath, rolled his eyelids, and scolded with a smile: "I want you to take care of it, it's your business to grow a few pounds and taels of meat, eat your rice." ”
Jiang Li choked up, and scolded with a smile: "You don't know what to do, men in this world are judged by their appearance, and no one wants to marry a fierce and ugly person." ”
Luo Kui sneered disdainfully, knowing that Jiang Liang was making fun of her, so she simply didn't care, and just stretched out her hand at the pointer.
Jiang Li grabbed her hand heavily, raised his eyes and smiled at the old man: "You don't have to turn around, my son has all the sugar you have left." As he spoke, he threw over an ingot of twenty taels of silver.
This tone is like a ruined son who is used to living a poor life, and then he gets rich overnight, and then shows off everywhere.
Luo Kui shook his head, pursed his lips and smiled: "Buy so much, do you want to kill anyone?" ”
Jiang Li was silent, only raised his eyes to look at her, and kept looking at her face slightly red, with a hint of anger, and he had the momentum to scold, before he withdrew his eyes and raised the corners of his lips and smiled: "It seems that the ginseng soup is really useful, you have the strength to scold people." ”
Luo Kui laughed angrily, snorted, and slashed at him with knife-like eyes while laughing, in the past, she fought with him as soon as she met him, and she didn't say a few words, but now she realized that he and Su Zi are actually the same, and they have the ability to make people laugh and cry.
While speaking, twelve sugar cakes were handed over, Jiang Li grabbed them all in his hand, held them tightly, looked at this like a child, looked at that, and finally picked up the smallest, drew a jade rabbit sugar cake, handed it to Luo Kui, and solemnly explained: "Give, this is just yours, the rest is all mine, you save some food, it's gone after eating." ”
Luo Kui's eyes stared directly at the rest of Jiang Li's hands, gritting his back molars and saying angrily: "It's all yours, you can kill it." ”
Jiang Li smiled disappreliantly: "Wouldn't it be just right for me to die." His voice suddenly lowered, and he muttered, "I'm dead, so you don't have to worry about me going to Su Lingquan for trouble." ”
Luo Kui's heart tightened, a little unbearable, but he couldn't say anything to consol, so he had to smile and say: "If you are looking for trouble, you will find trouble, you can't beat him, you are willing to go and fight, why should I stop you." ”
Jiang Li suddenly gritted a mouthful of silver teeth and creaked, wanting to refute but unable to refute, he was indeed not Su Lingquan's opponent, he was just looking for him to fight, he was angry, annoyed and angry, but he took a bite of each of the remaining sugar cakes, looking back with a dull pain, but he smiled and said: "It's all mine, and I won't leave any of it for you." ”
Luo Kui was angry, angry and almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, she held it for a long time, and actually laughed out loud, always cold face, there was a smile and a coquettish look, at that time the moon was first revealed, slightly reflected on her side face, that look like an epiphany under the moon, beautiful people can't take their eyes off, but fleeting.
Jiang Li looked fascinated, after being with him for so many days, it was the first time he found out that she actually had the coquettishness of her little daughter, it was really beautiful, he suddenly remembered Cheng Chaoyan, and vaguely remembered that she had also laughed like this, but not at himself, but at Su Lingquan. He stumbled hard, and a thunderbolt struck his heart, it turned out that Cheng Chaoyan had never had him in his eyes, and there had never been Su Lingquan.
Luo Kui saw Jiang Li's strange appearance and said in surprise: "What's wrong with you." ”
Jiang Liang looked up, only to see that she was already looking as usual, no surprise or joy, couldn't help but be a little disappointed, looked at her gloomily, and whispered, "It's okay." ”
The moonlight fell silently, and the wind pushed a few wisps of floating clouds to flutter slowly, falling on the hook of the crescent moon, and the brilliance flashed and dimmed a little.
This street is the widest of the Danxia flowers, and it is crowded and bustling at this time, and it is more noisy than daytime.
Jiang Liang and the two stood quietly opposite each other in this noise, and the faint moonlight was quietly afraid of falling around the two of them, and occasionally the wind swept lightly, and there were ripples with a little silver light. The two of you look at me, I look at you, looking at each other quietly, silent, as if the people around them have nothing to do with them.
"The East China Sea Divine Pearl is here, let's go, take a look. ”
"The Divine Bead is in the world, and you can't afford it, what do you see. ”
"I can't afford it, I can afford it, walk around, it's Linlangxuan in front of me. ”
Unexpectedly, there was a noise in front of them, followed by a bustling crowd rushing forward, and some people shouted that the East China Sea Shenzhu was born, this voice was exclaimed, and the two suddenly came back to their senses, looked at each other awkwardly, and said in unison: "The East China Sea Shenzhu is here, take a look." ”
Linlangxuan is located at the corner of the street, is a corner of the three-storey wooden building, carved beams and paintings are very exquisite, the door is not tall, but in the Danxia Flower Forest is famous, the shopkeeper Linlang is a person with great powers, it is rumored that no matter how rare the object, as long as you say it, but also give out the exchange of things, he can find it for you.
The lobby of Linlangxuan is still spacious, but it can't accommodate so many people, and a swarm of people poured in, so they had to ask everyone to stand outside the door, and in the lobby there was a small table of begonia wood carvings.
The crowd was tilting their heads and looking inside.
I saw four nursing homes on both sides of the small table, and a middle-aged man wearing a pale blue coat sat behind the small table, the cold wind swept in, and the long white hair on the man's chin fluttered slightly.
The middle-aged man coughed lightly, and everyone suddenly fell silent, staring at the empty small table.
I saw the middle-aged man raise his hand and flick it lightly on the small table, and there was suddenly a square carved brocade box on it.
With a click, he opened the copper buckle with a solemn expression, and slowly opened the brocade box, and a warm brilliance suddenly sprinkled all over the small table, and a thumb-sized bead nested quietly in the box, surrounded by a faint mist.
Seeing this scene, everyone suddenly exclaimed, ecstatic and ready to win.
Jiang Liang turned sideways slightly, approached Luo Kui and whispered: "Sure enough, it is the East China Sea Divine Pearl, this Linlangxuan really has some skills, I don't know what he wants to change." ”
Luo Kui's eyes flashed, and he smiled lowly: "No matter what he wants to change, we don't have it, we are poor now, and we really only have silver left." ”
The middle-aged man stroked the long beard on his chin, smiled at the crowd crowded at the door, and said in a deep voice: "Contemptible Linlangxuan shopkeeper Linlang, you come to my Linlangxuan to cheer, my Linlangxuan naturally can't let you down, and then he turned his hand, and there was an extra bead in his hand, which was as big as an egg."
Everyone suddenly exclaimed, and whispered one after another.
Linlang nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Linlangxuan took out two East China Sea Divine Beads, one large and one small, today, and the things exchanged are naturally not ordinary things. With a wave of one hand, two pieces of paper hung in the air, each listing the things exchanged for the East China Sea Divine Bead.
Jiang Li and Luo Kui looked at it carefully, and the more they looked at it, the more their hearts sank, what was written on this paper was not a rare thing, no matter which one of them was taken out, it could set off a bloody storm on the rivers and lakes, but unfortunately, none of them had any of them.
After a stick of incense, no one can make up what is on paper.
Linlang was a little disappointed, coughed lightly, and said: "If you don't have this thing on the paper, then there is another way for the contemptible people, a drop of Chenjiao liquid can be exchanged for this smaller East China Sea Divine Pearl, and a bottle of Chenjiao liquid can be exchanged for such a large East China Sea Divine Pearl." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar, Chenjiao is a hundred times more valuable than the things on paper, and even the things on the paper can't be taken out, how can there be such a life-saving medicine as Chenjiao.
Luo Kui lowered his head slightly, but it was a pity that he didn't bring Chenjiao out, and then he thought that if he brought Chenjiao out, he would be able to heal after drinking, and he would need to travel thousands of miles to Danxia Flower Forest, and he tried his best to find the East China Sea Divine Pearl.
Jiang Li's heart sank to the bottom in an instant, he had nothing on paper, let alone Chenjiao, he looked sideways at Luo Kui, and under the unbearable heartache, he held her hand.
Luo Kui trembled slightly, turned his head and smiled faintly at him, and said softly: "It's okay, there is no Chenjiao, you can't exchange for the East China Sea Divine Pearl, and there is a method next to it, Skullcap refuses to be cured, and there is a holy hand next to it." ”
Jiang Li nodded silently, and the two were about to leave, but a shout came from behind them: "The old man has changed, and the old man and the young man are gone." ”
A black-robed man swept over everyone's heads and fell straight into the middle of the hall, grabbing the small beads on the table with one hand and the big beads in Linlang's hands with the other.
Linlang was startled, turned his hand, and Dazhu suddenly disappeared, and then pushed out with a palm and fell heavily on the black-robed man.
The black-robed man only shook his body, but he stood firmly in place, but it was Lin Lang Teng who took a few steps back before he managed to stabilize his body.
Linlang looked at each other angrily and shouted: "Who is Your Excellency, is this a robbery?" ”
The black-robed man smiled and said, "What the old man wants, it has always been given by others with both hands, and there is no need to grab it at all." ”
When Jiang Li saw this person, he was immediately shocked, this person was the person who played the piano in the bamboo forest, he looked around, not saw the girl called Lu'er, lowered his head and said to Luo Kui: "What does he want the East China Sea Divine Pearl to do, could it be that he also has something to ask for skullcap." ”
Luo Kui shook his head and said in a low voice: "This person is very generous, and he can actually replace two East China Sea Divine Beads with one shot. ”
Jiang Li sneered: "I don't think so, I think he really has the idea of robbing." He paused slightly, and pondered: "His stupid girl didn't come with him, maybe he wanted to change this East China Sea Divine Pearl, in order to treat his stupid girl." ”
At this time, the black-robed man took out two jade bottles, one large and one small, from his sleeve, and placed them heavily on the table, and said, "Look at it yourself." ”
Linlang hurriedly grabbed one of the jade bottles, carefully uncovered a crack, and the sound of a dragon's groan came out in an instant, and then the blue light was revealed, and he hurriedly covered the jade bottle tightly, and nodded again and again with joy.
Jiang Li said in a low voice: "This person has a big heart, and he is not afraid of the people of Linlangxuan." ”
Luo Kui shook his head and smiled: "Didn't you look at his style, ten Linlang can't beat one of him, how can he be afraid." ”
Jiang Li sighed with pity and said, "Little demon girl, there is no East China Sea Divine Pearl, what can we take to see Skullcap." ”
Luo Kui smiled: "Go to see it empty-handed, there is always a way to see the move." ”
The East China Sea Divine Pearl finally fell into the hands of others, and everyone couldn't help but feel happy and left one after another.
As soon as I walked out of Linlangxuan, the sky seemed to suddenly be overcast, the moon was exhausted, and there were squirming snow flakes falling.
Luo Kui hurriedly covered the top of his head with his hands and exclaimed, "It's broken, it's snowing." ”
The voice was still there, the snow was falling bigger, Jiang Li didn't say a word and pulled Luo Kui to run to the porch to avoid the snow, she pulled out her hand, raised her hand to pick up the broken hair in front of her forehead, and said sadly: "The snow here is really weird, just come." ”
Jiang Li's eyes were shining with deep affection, like a smile like a flower, slowly raised her hand, and as soon as she touched her face, Luo Kui suddenly dodged away as if frightened, her face was already blushing, and her eyes dodged and whispered: "What are you doing." ”
"Don't move. Jiang Li chuckled: "I'm not hungry now, I won't eat you." He slowly stroked her wet hair and shoulders, and said with a light smile: "It's a little wet, be careful about the cold, let's go back to the inn first." ”
This gentle love is different from Su Zi's love like a brother and father, and it is different from his father's stern coldness, which makes Luo Kui's heart warm, as if she missed a beat, and her face can't help but ripple crimson, after a long time, her mood calmed down a little, she raised her eyes to look at the long rain and hesitated: "The night is so deep, I don't know when the rain will stop." ”
Jiang Li groaned slightly, and suddenly hugged Luo Kui in his arms, pinched a trick in his hand, and a slight light flashed around his body, blocking the non-stop rain outside.
Luo Kui's face was like a cloud, and he struggled in his arms, but he hugged him tighter and tighter, and whispered in his ear: "Don't move, if you fall into the water, you will have to wear wet clothes." "Looks like your spell is really a showpiece. Luo Kui hid his face, pouted in the shadows, and said mockingly.
Only a few breaths, the two appeared in the inn room, Luo Kui's face flushed slightly, only to see the rain outside the window is getting heavier and heavier, the rain is like a curtain, not far away the clear water and green mountains are covered by the rain, there is no trace, the wind carries the rain to rush in, the house is up a cloud of water, she hurriedly got up to close the window, but Jiang Li also came to close the window, his hand pressed on her hand, he held it tightly, and whispered in her ear: "With me, I will not let you suffer in the future." ”
The window has not been closed tightly, a wisp of wind rolled in along the crack of the window, and the lamp flickered a few times, Luo Kui hurriedly withdrew his hand, lowered his eyes and poured a glass of wine and handed it over: "Thank you for helping a few times." There was a lot of alienation in the words, Jiang Li's eyes darkened, like a faint candle flame, and he pursed the corners of his lips, still smiling lightly.
Luo Kui raised her eyes to look at him, the faint smile hidden behind the candle flame, the faint sense of familiarity spread in her heart again, she was slightly stunned, but there were no words, she raised her hand and poured a few sips of wine, drank violently, choked and coughed again and again, her face was red, and her eyes were faintly a little confused. She propped her cheeks and muttered, "Jiang Li, you can rest." Immediately, he staggered and hugged a brocade quilt and spread it under the window, and was about to lie down in his clothes.
Jiang Li grabbed her arm and said with a smile: "It's cold on the ground, you should sleep on the bed." ”
Luo Kui sneered: "Don't, go to Jianmen Pass tomorrow, you have to rely on you to fight, you are expensive, you can't catch a cold." ”
Jiang Li smiled: "Then, if you really feel sorry for me, then let me sleep in the bed too." ”
Luo Kui glanced at him, snorted coldly, leaned under the window, drunkenness, and a little sleepy, his eyes slowly drooped, his voice gradually lowered, and he spit out two words: "Don't think." The rain outside the window stopped at some point, only the wind with the whistle blew in front of the window, and the raindrops fell under the eaves in a half-sound, and a crescent moon climbed up the clouds, and through the slightly whitish window paper, sprinkled some of the brilliance that seemed to be nothing.
Jiang Li slowly paced to the sleeping Luo Kui, reached out and stroked her slightly frowning eyebrows, stroked the tips of her cheeks and hair, sighed lightly, and carried her to the bed, while he sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her face with a good look. Lu'er turned a deaf ear to all this, squatting on the ground to pick up stones for a while, circling around the bamboo for a while, reaching out and shaking countless bamboo leaves, some of which fell on the head of the black-robed man, and on his body, he only raised his hand and gently brushed it away.
The black-robed man looked at it for a while, beckoned to Lu'er, and said softly: "Go, Lu'er, there is a once-in-a-decade ghost collection in the Danxia Flower Forest ahead, maybe there will be the East China Sea Shenzhu in the world, find all the things that the skullcap wants, let's go into Hualin Mountain, wait for him to heal you, and Daddy will take you to see your mother." ”
Lu'er suddenly smiled, nodded again and again, and his dirty hand imprinted a gray palm print on the man's black robe, and then grabbed his arm and jumped away.
————————————
Qingzhou City.
The Liehou Mansion is not far from the palace city, there is a two-storey small building in the palace, the place by the railing is just opposite to the palace gate, when you are lucky, you can see the inner servants who enter and exit from the palace gate.
Qu Yuanshen stood on the railing in the cold wind, I don't know how long he stood up, even the tip of his nose was frozen red, and the house behind him was caged with a charcoal basin, and the red flames licked the fatty fish, and the aroma was fragrant. After a long time, he didn't look back and said, "Liangjiang, why can't you see it." ”
Yun Liangjiang was warming a pot of wine, and when he heard Qu Yuanshen's words, he sighed: "Aren't you stupid, I can only see the palace gate here, and I can't see the inner garden of the deep palace." ”
Qu Yuanshen sighed faintly, and it was difficult to calm down.
Yun Liangjiang took the plum cut in the morning, inserted a branch into the bottle, looked left and right only to feel dissatisfied, picked up the flower scissors on the side, cut off the excess flower branches in a few clicks, and nodded with satisfaction: "She has been in the palace for more than a month, and she has been canonized as a nobleman, which shows how much Your Majesty favors her, at this time it is not so easy to do her hands and feet, Your Majesty will be suspicious, Yuan Shen, I will not ask you to kill yourself." ”
Qu Yuanshen stood in the wind, his clothes fluttering like a fairy, as if he was about to fly into the inner garden of the deep palace in an instant, and after being quiet for a long time, he said in a dumb voice: "I know that there is no perfect plan, and it is not possible to move without permission, but she is simple-minded, and I am afraid that she will suffer." ”
Yun Liangjiang turned the fish over, saw that the fish was roasted on both sides and was browned, and quickly sprinkled some salt and condiments on it, and roasted it slightly, so he took it off and handed it to Qu Yuanshen: "With her aunt here, who dares to give her a loss, even if it is my aunt, let her aunt take three points." ”
Everyone in the world loves to listen to the short and long-term news, especially such deep palace secrets, which are once in a lifetime, how can there be any reason to miss it, Qu Yuanshen suddenly laughed, and clapped his hands again and again: "Liang Jiang, guess who your aunt and her aunt will help if they fight." ”
Yun Liangjiang choked out a sip of wine, and coughed again and again: "It's not that I haven't been beaten, don't guess." ”
As soon as he heard the battle in the deep palace, Qu Yuan came to his senses when he went to the palace, he wanted to listen to it more, know more, and be with her, sharing joys and sorrows. He flashed into the room and took a cup, and poured himself a drink: "Tell me, tell me quickly, what's going on." ”
Yun Liangjiang knew that he had lost his words, and if he said a few more words, he was afraid that he would lose more words, so he poured a sip of wine, shook his head again and again, and said: "I can't say it, I can't say it, I can't say it, if my father knows that I tell outsiders about the rights and wrongs of my elders, he has to kill me." ”
The cold wind whisked, stirring the water-red thin silk curtains, the red is extremely bright, like the Lingxiao flowers climbing on the wall in summer, adding a strong color to this bleak winter.
Qu Yuanshen's eyes rolled, and there were countless ideas, he winked at Yun Liangjiang, and said with a smile: "Liangjiang, the county lord once got a pot of good tea, and brought some for me to try." ”
Yun Liangjiang suddenly became interested, and hurriedly asked: "Yes, yes, Luokui must have a good tea, what kind of tea is it, why is it just given to you to taste, and not brought to me to taste." ”
"It's a tribute tea sent by Junshan Mansion. Yun Liangjiang deliberately lowered his voice, lest he be listened to by others.
Yun Liangjiang frowned and feigned anger: "You have Junshan tribute tea and don't give me a drink." ”
Qu Yuanshen glanced at him and said seriously: "If the county lord knows that I gave the tea she gave to outsiders to drink, she won't be able to spare me." ”
Yun Liangjiang choked, stiffened his neck and was stunned for a while, and then slapped the table: "That's it, I endured it for ten years to produce a jar of Junshan tribute tea." He pointed to Qu Yuanshen and instructed him: "You, don't go out and talk nonsense." ”
Qu Yuanshen pinched his lips and made a silent movement: "Don't worry, I will never go out to give you Yunhou Mansion a virtue." ”
The cold wind in winter, the cold through the bones, is the most sobering heart.
Yun Liangjiang closed the door, drank a cup of tea and cleared his throat, and then said in a low voice: "About two years ago, I entered the palace to ask my aunt for peace, just in time for Xu Guifei and my aunt to quarrel, saying that King Lin took the second young master of their family, and he was so angry that he even moved his hand and dragged my aunt's earring, and the earlobes were torn out of blood." Later, when His Majesty came, he didn't reprimand Concubine Xu, but just lightly persuaded a few words, so forget it. ”
Qu Yuan was stunned when he went to the mountain, Yun Liangjiang's aunt was the queen, although she was the successor, but she was also the person at the top of His Majesty's heart
After a long time, he smiled narrowly, hugged Luo Kui to the inside of the bed, and lay down on the outside, the corners of his lips smiled and were stunned for a while, but he turned sideways to take her in his arms and pecked her lightly on the lips. He looked down at her face between the crooks of his arms, and a burst of fragrance hit him, and he couldn't help but be moved by emotion, and kissed her again.
