In the middle of the night, I don't know when the rain outside the window stopped.

A bright moon peeked through the clouds, as if revealing a white face in the dark and dreary sky, making people suddenly find a glimmer of light from the confused and trapped world, as if opening a door in the depths of their hearts.

The moonlight shone through the window into the hut, as if a silvery white veil had cast over the slightly gloomy room.

Ruan Hongyu and Qin Xi kept talking about this, even if it was just the two of them, they were still quite interested in talking about certain topics, so she asked Fluttershy to prepare a few delicate side dishes, as well as two pots of Tianxianglou's secret "Guifei Drunk", the wine was pleasant, and the two of them drank each other, as if they had forgotten all the unhappiness.

"Xiaoxi, how did you meet that silly boy?" asked Ruan Hongyu.

Qin Xi drank a few glasses of wine and a faint flush appeared on her face, which made her even more cute, she held the wine glass in her hand, shook it, drank it without thinking, and then said: "That time my father and my father went to a place called Zhuxian Town, I was bored at home alone, so I secretly followed out, they had no choice but to take me all the way, it was in that town that the two of us fought with a group of bullying bullies, and then naturally we met!"

"That's ...... so"

Ruan Hongyu nodded, imagining the scene at that time, she couldn't help laughing, gently pinched Qin Xi's pink face, and said, "It's very similar to what you did when you did it!"

"What about Wang Jinyu?"

"Don't you like him at all?" she asked.

Qin Xi was stunned by her question, she originally wanted to say "like", because they have known each other since they were very young, and their family backgrounds are similar, Wang Jinyu can be regarded as outstanding in terms of family studies and appearance, and he has always been very good to himself, every time he loses his temper, he is always the first to make himself happy, and sometimes in order to protect himself, he even does not hesitate to turn his face with other noble children, so it is impossible for him not to dislike him.

But Qin Xi understands that the "like" in Ruan Hongyu's mouth is not exactly the same as liking, and she hasn't even thought about what kind of feelings the so-called liking should be?

Qin Xi frowned slightly, a little distressed.

Seeing Qin Xi's expression, Ruan Hongyu couldn't help but smile and said, "Over the years, I have realized a truth......

"What's the truth?" Qin Xi asked curiously.

"That is, fate can actually be divided into many kinds, sometimes good, sometimes bad, maybe you can't tell it quickly, only time will see everything......"

Qin Xi's eyes suddenly lit up, the sadness on his face turned into curiosity, and he asked, "Sister Yu, I've always wanted to know, what kind of fate should you expect?" Or ...... What kind of people do you like?"

Ruan Hongyu smiled faintly, pursed her lips, and her thoughts collided for a long time before she said: "I think that person should be dressed in white, walking slowly from the mist, spotless, his every step is like a musical note, just like that, so that when you see it, your heart will start beating like a string, and it will not stop for a long time......"

Qin Xi lifted his face, looked sideways slightly, and said suspiciously: "Is there really a person like you said in this world?"

Ruan Hongyu's eyes showed a look of fascination, and she said with a smile: "I think, as long as you are willing to wait, then there will definitely be ...... in this world Even if you can't wait in this life, there's nothing to be sorry for......"

When the two of them talked about their relationship, they couldn't help but talk about the late night, and they didn't pay much attention to the madwoman who had been sitting in the corner, and the madwoman was still playing with her fingers, her eyes glazed.

She picked up a piece of red bean crisp from the tea tray in front of her, put it to her lips and licked it, her eyes showing love

, but did not rush to put it in the mouth, but repeatedly observed.

Because the crazy woman has been in a daze in the corner and has not made any sound, neither Qin Xi nor Ruan Hongyu have noticed her, she was also a singer in Tianxianglou, but now she is smiling like a child of a few years old, I don't know if she has experienced anything unbearable?

Qin Xi "lamented", feeling that the crazy woman was extremely pitiful, and couldn't help but say, "Sister Yu, what's wrong with her?"

Ruan Hongyu shook her head slightly and said, "I don't know, after the heavy rain that day, as soon as Fluttershy went out, she saw her curled up outside the door of Tianxiang Building, so it was like taking her to Aunt Hong, but she refused to enter the door of Tianxiang Building even if she died, so I had to bring her to me......"

"Originally, they were all sisters in the building, but good people don't know what kind of stimulation they received, and they became like this overnight......

The two of them looked at the madwoman together, but the madwoman didn't seem to see them at all, looking at the red bean cake by herself, her big eyes turned up and down, but she didn't seem to have the intention of opening her mouth to eat.

Ruan Hongyu's eyes were slightly dark, and she lowered her head and looked at the guqin, thoughtful.

"Withered Flowers...... Withered Flowers...... When you smell it, the fragrance floats for ten miles...... Peerless elegance...... Chao Rongxing the world sideways...... The sun is withered and dusty...... A flower falls...... A hundred flowers share sorrow......"

"When the flowers fall, why don't people share the same sorrow?"

Obviously, Ruan Hongyu couldn't help but feel a little sad when she saw the crazy woman like this, they were all hard-working people, or they were abducted, or their families were miserable to the point of selling their children, causing them to fall into the dust since they were children, and they laughed at all kinds of guests every day, in fact, how can they express the sadness in their hearts?

Ruan Hongyu may be a little different from them, it is just a more sought after Qinglou woman, she has always been very clear about her identity, and she usually does not "feel sad" because of this, but the situation of the crazy woman at this moment really reminds her of herself, they are all the same fate, as a "plaything" in the palm of people's hands, one day will be abandoned, who can say what the result will be at that time?

"Sister Yu, are you okay?" Qin Xi felt the change in Ruan Hongyu's mood, so he asked carefully.

Ruan Hongyu shook her head, but turned her gaze away.

Who knew that at this time, the crazy woman who had been quietly looking at the red bean cake in her hand suddenly let out a terrible scream.

"Ah......h

"Don't kill me...... I can do whatever you want...... Don't feed the fish...... Plentiful...... Spare me......"

"Please...... Please, let ...... Let...... Leave me alone......"

I don't know what suddenly touched the woman's nerves, so that she hugged her head tightly with both hands, knelt on the ground, and knocked over all the tea trays in front of her to the ground, she acted like crazy, kept kowtowing to the void in front of her, and her whole body was trembling with fear.

This change was really sudden, Qin Xi almost fell to the ground, she came back to her senses, turned around and saw the crazy woman in the corner who was kowtowing, and couldn't help frowning.

Ruan Hongyu unconsciously held Qin Xi's hand, Qin Xi could feel the slightest coldness in her hand, so she looked back and saw that Ruan Hongyu's always lazy eyes had a little fear for the first time.

After all, Qin Xi had studied martial arts, and she calmed down a lot after a little relief, and she gently patted Ruan Hongyu's slightly cool hand.

"Sister Jade, don't be afraid!"

Ruan Hongyu also understood at this time, but she just kept staring at the crazy woman's actions, seeing that she was extremely humble, obviously touched by something, and remembered some terrible scene.

Fortunately, in the case of crazy women

It didn't continue to "deteriorate", it just kept shivering there.

Qin Xi and Ruan Hongyu couldn't bear it after all, and when they came to her, Ruan Hongyu leaned down and stretched out her hand to gently caress her back, at first the woman's body suddenly trembled violently, but after knowing that the person behind her was not malicious, she slowly relaxed a lot.

Seeing that the woman had eased up a lot, Qin Xi asked, "You said someone was going to feed you or you to the fish?"

The madwoman glared at Qin Xi and nodded slowly after a long time.

Seeing that the madwoman was not unconscious, Qin Xi couldn't help but turn around and look at Ruan Hongyu, and then continued to ask, "Then do you know what kind of people they are?"

The madwoman seemed to be trying to recall the scenes in the depths of her memory, but soon she began to tremble violently, and it was clear that although she was not as conscious as before, she might be lucky to survive.

"They're all terrible...... of people...... Knife...... Rush...... Rush in and kill people...... Push the sisters in...... Jiangli ...... Feed...... Feed the fish ......"

The madwoman trembled while talking, some words were slurred, and she said something intermittently, Qin Xi and Ruan Hongyu could only hear part of the content from it, but as long as they had a little association, they couldn't find that that night, they took a flower boat to enjoy the river, and out of nowhere, many "terrible people" suddenly came, they carried a long knife of cold light conflict, and after getting on the boat, they didn't ask, so they began to kill, and threw all the Tianxianglou women who went with the boat into the river, and they actually wanted to feed them alive to the fish in the river.

These words, coupled with the terrifying look on the madwoman's intermittent expression, can't help but make people shudder.

"Do you remember what kind of people they were?" Qin Xi asked with a little anger, holding his hands on the woman's shoulders and aggravating his tone again.

The woman's gaze at the moment is like a clear sea, but behind it is an invisible depth, not because of how deep her mind is, but because the nightmare has planted an extremely terrible seed in her heart.

"They...... Apparel...... Official uniform ......"

......

On stormy nights, the wide river is unobstructed, and only a tall and luxurious flower boat floats slowly along the water.

The sky was gradually obscured by dark clouds, thunder and lightning intertwined, and the wind swept up the river into strong waves, making the flower boats on the river also rise and fall more and more violently.

But unlike the wind and rain outside, the candles in the flower boat are bright, like a piece of spring lingering and rippling.

A middle-aged man in a wide robe, with a thick body, a full beard, and a dark face, looked like a fierce god, he was reclining on a huge soft chair, squinting his misty eyes, panting and looking at the beautiful woman in front of him who seemed to be a light swallow.

Because his face was dark, it was impossible to tell how much alcohol he had drunk, but his misty gaze indicated that he was already a little drunk at the moment.

"I can't imagine that these soft wines of the Southern Dynasty don't feel like they taste, but the stamina is so great!" he shook his head and said in jerky Chinese.

There was a handsome man with a fair face standing beside him, and in the light of the candlelight, it could be seen that it was the man who had been standing by the sedan chair when the "Commander Zhao" fought with Qin Xi on the night of the Oiran.

His white shiny face exuded a somewhat "evil" smile, and he kept beckoning several wonderful women to flash their soft waists, holding a glass full of wine like a swift swallow from time to time into the man's arms, the man has never refused the wine sent by the woman, he raised his head and drank all the wine, and a pair of big hands did not forget to "rob" a little "spring and mountain" on the woman.
