Volume 1 Section 1 Red Clouds Rise

Nineteen years ago

Chiaki years old

"The High Priest has returned, who is this little girl?" asked a woman in white as she looked at the four or five-year-old children beside the High Priest. "Loulan brought it back. Recognize your sorrow, take her down, and take good care of her. ”

"Is there anything wrong with this kid?" asked Zhichou with a frown.

"Nope. Nice talent. ”

"Yes"

A year later.

"High Priest, you see, I have grown up again in light skills today! I have also memorized all the poison skills taught to me by my sister!" said the little girl with a harmless smile, wearing a white dress, stained with pieces of blood, hideous and dazzling. "Come here," the high priest frowned, "it's faster, girl, it's not nice to have blood splattered on your body." The little girl's eyes suddenly showed disappointment, and then she turned her smile again, revealing two small pear nests, and said, "High priest, I will do it quickly, and you will come again tomorrow, and you will come again!"

"Can't come tomorrow. ”

"Then the day after tomorrow. ”

"Not the day after tomorrow. ”

The little girl was suddenly stunned, a little overwhelmed, and asked eagerly, "But I was wrong, I will try harder! ”

"No," the high priest smiled softly, "there's something to do." I'll be back in January. ”

"High Priest, don't you, don't you want me anymore?"

"No, it's just January. ”

The girl's nose suddenly turned red, tears were held in her eyes, and she said aggrievedly, "High priest, I know that I am weak now, I will try to become stronger, and I will have my own name!

"Name?"

"yes. ”

"What's the name?"

"Sister Zhichou said, everyone here, as long as they are strong enough, is qualified to keep their names, and they can stay here for the rest of their lives!" The high priest couldn't help but chuckle, "Do you want to stay here for the rest of your life?"

"There is a high priest here, and there is a sister who knows sorrow, and you are all good to me. The High Priest was silent. This silly girl, when other girls were children, their parents and brothers were by their side, enjoying a happy childhood. She actually wanted to stay in this thousand years of grass and human life for the rest of her life, and be the company of dead people and poisons every day. In this small, dark cave, practice day after day. The high priest didn't know how many times she had secretly watched it, this girl practiced by herself during the day, she never rested for a day, she didn't know how many times she fell when she practiced light exercises, and she never cried. The food that is delivered is always eaten in the evening. After eating, he quickly picked up the Baicao Zhi Poison Zhi and carried it back. I only slept late at night, and when the sun came out, it was such a practice. The high priest remembered that the day he saw her for the first time, the blazing fire reflected the red sun slowly setting in the sky, and with her innocent smile, he unconsciously came back with this dying girl in his arms.

"You like to see clouds?" finally the High Priest spoke. "How does the High Priest know?" asked the girl. "When you are hurt, you look up at the clouds. Why?"

"Because I love the cloud. The clouds are beautiful, they change every day, but they are beautiful no matter how they change. I can't guess what this one will become, or what the next one will look like. But it's every day, even if it's different. Unlike the sun and moon, maybe the rain won't come. The high priest smiled again, "Tong Yan is unscrupulous." This one is not yesterday's one. ”

"That's right. The little girl lowered her eyelashes, looked a little disappointed, and fell silent. A hint of confusion flashed across the high priest's face, as if he had just said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said, "Is Yun'er okay?" the high priest asked. "Huh?" the girl's eyes widened, "Yun'er?"

"Your name, do you like it?"

"Yun'er, I have a name! High Priest, huh?"

The girl turned around, and the high priest was gone. Come back after a month, January, for a long time. Yun'er, the girl suddenly remembered, happily kept repeating these two simple words, and before she knew it, she fell asleep.

A month later, the high priest returned. Covered in blood.

Two years later.

"Yun'er?"

"The High Priest is here! Look at the dagger I practiced today! ”

"Daggers are not good. ”

"Ahh ”

"It's not the same. Let's change to red silk tomorrow. ”

"Red silk is soft, how can there be a dagger sharp. ”

"Nothing is sharp enough if you don't have enough skill"

"Yes. . . Yun'er hid the disappointment in her eyes.

"Yun'er," the high priest suddenly lowered his head and shouted.

"Huh?"

"Two years ago, did you remember telling me that you wanted to stay here for the rest of your life?"

"Of course Yun'er remembers."

"Do you still want to?"

"Of course Yun'er wants to, Yun'er thinks. ”

"Alright. The high priest paused, then made up his mind and said, "In three days, I will send you to Nephrite Incense." ”

"Nephrite, what is nephrite?"

"Green House"

"Qinglou? Yun'er read a book and said that the women there are for men to have fun, and most of them have suffered all their lives. or was sold by a traitor because he had no father or mother since he was a child, or he was sent away helplessly because his family was poor. Yun'er's eyes were complicated, "The high priest doesn't want me!"

The high priest couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he looked at Yun'er like this. "Don't you want to go on a mission like Sorrow?"

"Ah, what does the high priest mean is that you want me to go on a mission? I can go on a mission?" the girl suddenly became radiant, unable to hide her excitement. "Well, you're the youngest. They don't get suspicious. I'll arrange good people. ”

"Okay! Yun'er will prepare tomorrow! But tomorrow she will practice red silk! Oh, I haven't read the book yet! I still have more things!" Turning his head, he found that the high priest was no longer there.

Early in the morning of the third day, Yun'er was sent to nephrite by Gongzi. It was a golden building and a jade sky, a blue and red place where singing and dancing were leveled.

"How old are you?" asked Nephrite's mother with a smile. "It's eight years old," Yun'er said with her head down. I have never seen so many people, and in the past, there were only my sister and the high priest in the cave, but now I am also panicked, and I am a little nervous and trembling slightly. Suddenly, a burst of laughter came, "Oh, I'll see, but my mother is beautiful again." "A girl dressed in a yellow dress and a red dress and a goose-yellow satin, came from the outer room with a smile, her breasts half exposed, and her sleepy eyes. Charming. "Then we have to see what kind of thing to keep, if it's like you, I'd rather pour out ten gold and let her go." Liu's mother replied with a helpless smile. "Mom said this, but I really don't like the wine dust. It's a big deal that this girl gave it to me, and I brought her a bright and smooth plate. And my mother is an Oiran is. Jiuchen said jokingly, pretending to glance at Yun'er a few times inadvertently. "But there's no wine in the day? Grandma and Grandma can go quickly, I'm doing serious business here." Mother Liu said with a helpless smile.

"Yo yo yo, what's the matter, I really want to get back to my mother, my mother doesn't want to give it to me? " Jiuchen said with a smile. "Tsk, you little hoof, I can't give it to anyone, bring me a wine worm, and I'll die. Your general is coming over tonight, why don't you go and get ready?" Liu's mother returned. "Look at my mother's unrighteous appearance of liking the new and hating the old, hey, it's really a hundred days. I want to see if I can bring someone to my mother. Jiuchen turned around and was about to leave, but he saw a dusty woman in a green dress. This figure, in Yun'er's heart at that time, was like a fairy, unstained with wind and dust, and independent in this drunken gold fan.

"Did you call me?" asked the woman in green. "But what are you talking about, the new girl, Jiuchen came to see, and I talked about you, but I went out today? Mom asked with a smile. "Is that her?" asked Idle Moan, pointing at me. Jiuchen took over the conversation and said with a smile, "It's not, I just said it casually, my mother refused to give it to me, look at this ruthlessness." ”

"In that case, why don't you give it to me?" Xian Yin looked at Yun'er for a while, and slowly opened up. It was the gentlest and most beautiful voice Yun'er had ever heard, and the tension was swept away at that moment, and she was relieved.

Yun'er didn't listen to what happened later, but only roughly knew about this Oiran named Xianyin, and this was the first time in five years that she had brought someone. Then he turned a few corners and went upstairs to the room upstairs.
