Xia Zixuan took the rouge gouache handed over by the proprietress and asked tentatively, "Yes, it's that Pear Blossom Town restaurant." ”

"Excuse me, this girl, why are you going to eat at that restaurant?" the proprietress smiled a little embarrassed, "There are countless restaurants in this pear blossom town, why don't you choose another restaurant?"

"What's the matter?, isn't the food in that restaurant delicious?" Xia Zixuan stared at the proprietress and asked seriously.

The proprietress said in a trembling voice: "No, no. I, I'm just listening to other people, it's a very strange restaurant, it's open in the middle of the night. And... ”

"And what?" Xia Zixuan said curiously.

"And, I've heard that there's something unclean there. ”

"This, this is unlikely, is it someone making it up?" Xia Zixuan smiled and said.

The proprietress said in a deep voice: "It's hard to say, in short, I advise you not to go, beware of being entangled." ”

"Okay, got it, thank you hostess. ”

After that, Xia Zixuan and Xia Bing left this rouge gouache shop.

"Hey, did you think there really was anything unclean in that Ewha Town restaurant?"

Xia Bing tugged at the corners of his mouth and said: "You also believe this, it's obviously just some boring people in the market making up nonsense, don't take it seriously." ”

In this way, the two walked around this pear blossom town, and it was finally sunset.

At this time, Xia Zixuan's stomach suddenly became a little hungry, so she found a noodle stall and asked Xia Bing to sit down together.

"Two guest officers, what kind of noodles do you want to eat?" The shopkeeper walked out of the store diligently and handed Xia Zixuan a simple menu.

"I want a bowl of Yangchun noodles and a bowl of shrimp and little chaos. Xia Zixuan handed the menu to Xia Bing again and said, "What do you eat?"

"I also want a bowl of Yangchun noodles. After Xia Bing finished speaking, he returned the menu to the shopkeeper.

"Okay, you two wait. Xiao Er smiled and walked inside.

It didn't take long for two bowls of Yangchun noodles and the bowl of shrimp to be served.

"Two guest officers, eat it while it's hot! This shrimp little chaos is the signature of our store, the taste is very delicious, and there is no second more delicious chaos on this street!"

"Okay, thank you Xiaoer, this is the money for you. Xia Bing said as he handed the shopkeeper a few copper coins.

"Okay, thank you, officer, you can use it slowly. ”

Xia Zixuan picked a few Yangchun noodles, tasted them, and exclaimed, "Well, it tastes really good." Brother Xia, you can try it too!"

I don't know when, Xia Zixuan has naturally changed her title for Xia Bing from Xia Gongzi to Xia Da Ge.

"Hmm. Xia Bing drank a bowl of noodle soup first and ate a few bites of noodles.

Xia Bing felt a warm current pouring into his heart from his throat, and this feeling seemed to return to his childhood.

At that time, he was still young, and he lived with his mother all day long, and the mother basically would not leave the palace, and the two were together in the palace all day long.

The concubine would often stew him a cup of soup, sometimes black chicken soup, sometimes fish soup.

The delicious soup poured into his throat was very similar to the feeling he had now.

However, the happy time was very short for Xia Bing.

Suddenly, one day, the queen came to the concubine's bedroom.

She took advantage of the fact that her father was out to inspect the palace and was not in the palace, so she took the opportunity to be a demon.

The vicious woman actually said that her mother was a monster, and she infiltrated the palace in order to disrupt the government and subvert the country where Xia Bing was at that time.

Moreover, she didn't know where to find a demon dao, and let that demon dao cast a spell to turn Xia Bing's mother into a half-human and half-demon spirit.

Then, the demon queen found a reason to directly kill the mother concubine who had become a monster.

At that time, Xia Bing was still a powerless child, and there was no way to stop this from happening, so he could only watch his mother be forced to commit suicide by jumping off a cliff.

Since then, Xia Bing has become reticent and has been looking for opportunities to take revenge on the queen.

When he became an adult, he led troops to fight outside for many years, and won the high trust of his father and entrusted him with important tasks.

Later, his father was seriously wounded and died after leading his troops into battle, so he passed the throne to his eldest brother.

And the queen who killed her mother became the queen mother and lived a worry-free life.

And the old queen mother was not idle at this time, she bribed many ministers and made them keep saying bad things about Xia Bing in front of the emperor, and said that Xia Bing had the ambition to snatch the throne.

After a long time, the emperor gradually believed it, so he took back all the power in Xia Bing's hands and imprisoned him in the palace and could not go out for the rest of his life.

Then, the old demon woman repeated her old tricks, came to the palace and sent someone to cast a spell to turn Xia Bing into a monster, preparing to burn him to death in the near future.

Fortunately, there is no endless road, and by chance, he was rescued by the current master Changqing Shangxian.

At that time, Changqing Shangxian found that he was quite immortal, which was very suitable for cultivation, and Xia Bing also felt that his fate was exhausted at this time, so he has been following his master to concentrate on cultivation until now.

I thought that I would not return to the human world again, but I didn't expect that since Xia Zixuan, who looked exactly like the real pearl, came to the Blue Sea Wonderland, it caused an uproar, which also made Xia Bing return to the human world again and again to investigate this matter.

Now that I think about it, the old witch should have died a long time ago.

That is, I don't know what the country I lived in back then is like now.

If he had the chance, he really wanted to go back to the palace back then.

"Hey, Brother Xia, do you want to try a bite of shrimp wontons. Xia Zixuan scooped a spoonful of chaos for Xia Bing with a spoon and put it in the bowl.

At that moment, Xia Bing was in a trance for a moment, and he suddenly missed his mother and concubine.

At that time, when the mother concubine fed herself, her voice was as gentle as Xia Zixuan.

"What do you want?" Xia Zixuan said when she saw that he hadn't spoken, and shook her spoon in front of her eyes.

"Uh. No. Xia Bing said embarrassedly, "Okay, I'll eat it right away." ”

He tasted this wonton, it was really delicious, and the shopkeeper really didn't brag.

After dinner, it was still early, and Xia Zixuan took Xia Bing to visit the night market again.

The night market in this pear blossom town is even more lively, and Xia Zixuan is shopping while walking.

She walked to a stall selling jewelry and picked up a beautiful hairpin.

I saw that the hairpin was green all over, the hairpin body was carved with a lifelike colorful phoenix, the hairpin head was carved with a green lotus flower, and a beautiful lotus canopy was tied with silver thread below, and the end was elegant and dusty.

Xia Zixuan put the hairpin on her head and looked at it in the mirror on the stall.

"Yo~ This young lady is really beautiful, this jade lotus hosta is very compatible with you. The boss praised Xia Zixuan with a smile.

He didn't tell a lie, the girl in front of him had skin like snow, her face was like a peach blossom, her eyes were clear and bright, very bright and moving, and it was not an exaggeration to say that this appearance was one in a million.

Looking at the boss's straight eyes, Xia Bing didn't know why he was suddenly a little unhappy in his heart.

He pulled Xia Zixuan away and said in a deep voice: "Let's go! It's not good-looking at all! There are still serious things to do, don't be stinky and beautiful!"

"Wait, don't pull me yet! I want to buy this hairpin!" Xia Zixuan shouted.

"Let's get down to business before we get to business!"

After that, Xia Bing took Xia Zixuan all the way to the end of the street and sat on the wooden stool outside the restaurant in Pear Blossom Town.

"Hey, why didn't you let me buy that hairpin just now?!" Xia Zixuan glanced at him and said.

"Didn't you see that boss just now staring at you with a squint?"

"What's the matter, it's just a normal compliment, you think too much. ”

After arguing and arguing, the voices of the two faded.

There are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the streets, and many vendors have closed their stalls.

Xia Bing and Xia Zixuan had been staring at the restaurant in Pear Blossom Town, but found that it had been dark inside, and there was no one.

After waiting for a long time, the restaurant still did not open.

At this time, a gust of cold wind poured in from the mouth of the alley, which made Xia Zixuan's back cold.

"It's too cold here, why don't we find a tavern or something to go in?" Xia Zixuan said as she rubbed her hands that were red from the cold.

"Okay, drink some wine to warm up. Xia Bing nodded.

The two stood up and walked diagonally across from the tavern.

After walking in, Xia Bing asked for a bottle of Huadiao, and Xia Zixuan ordered a bottle of rose liqueur.

"Ha~~ This sweet wine tastes so good. Xia Zixuan took a sip, and a layer of fine sweat broke out on her forehead.

"Give me a taste. Xia Bing snatched the wine bottle from Xia Zixuan's hand, poured it into the cup and drank it directly.

"It doesn't taste good, but I still like this flower carving. ”

At this time, the tavern owner saw that there was no one in the shop, so he moved a stool and sat down beside the two of them.

"Why did the two guest officers come out to drink so late?

"Well, the boss guessed right, the two of us are really not locals. Xia Bing took a sip of wine and said, "We came here this time, and I heard that there is a pear blossom town restaurant here that is particularly famous, so we came here to have a look." ”

Hearing Xia Bing's words, this boss actually showed a very frightened expression.

"You, are you really going to eat at that restaurant?" the boss shuddered.

"What's wrong?, is there any problem?" Xia Bing said in surprise.

"Haven't you heard? There was a murder in that restaurant a few days ago, and it hasn't been open for a while. The boss said mysteriously.

"What?!How could it be?" Xia Bing sighed.

"Hmm. It's true. All the customers in the store were killed that night. After that night, the restaurant owner also mysteriously disappeared. ”

After the tavern owner finished speaking, he stared at the door of the restaurant in Ewha Town, pointed to the dark doorway and said slowly: "Right there, I saw with my own eyes that after those customers came out of the store one by one, they fell to the ground one after another and died mysteriously. Later, the government sent a servant to investigate, but they couldn't find out what caused the death. ”

"Isn't it, it's so terrible?" Xia Zixuan said as she looked at her boss in horror.

"Hmm. Absolutely true. ”
