Chapter 172: A Sudden Visitor
Time is in a hurry, especially for those who feel happy, swishing away, even the tail can't be grasped, Shui Linglong is such a person! Two or three days have passed since Hantanyi's behavior, but every time she thinks about it, she feels like she is in front of her, and what appears on her cheeks is naturally a smile! They all say that love is the most wonderful thing, and it looks true.
But right now, it's not the time to think about this, it's supposed to come, it will still come after all, no matter how you hide, you can't hide it. At this moment, she was standing in the lobby, the night outside was a little dark, and she couldn't see far away, but she couldn't see clearly, just the sporadic lights, even in the eaves, it was also a hazy piece, and there were a lot of characters around, all dressed in that gauze dress, although most of the face was covered by the veil, but the expression revealed between the foreheads still looked very dignified.
"It's about to dawn!" Shui Lianhua said softly, although the words were not long, but at this moment, no one wanted to intervene to say something, on her face, a slight smile, that gaze, along the crowd, looked carefully: "You are either abandoned by your parents, or you are sold into the Qinglou, those with better lives, are servants and concubines, and those with poor lives may not even be able to save this life, although the Blue Lotus Sect is not a good place, but here, you have a home after all!"
The word family is undoubtedly expected, those maids, buried their heads slightly low, as if they were thinking about the clues related to this word, some people remember, some people have forgotten, and some people don't even know what home is.
"Wait for dawn, those robbers and bandits are coming, I don't want to embarrass you, if you want to leave, let's go, in the end, you are still young, have a good youth, you should not bury your life here! You should have a home that really belongs to you!" As soon as the voice of the water lotus stopped, Shui Linglong took it, if she would not think about the life and death of these people before, then now, she really can't give up this heart.
Somewhat choked posture, people like Shui Linglong will not easily expose their weak side in front of others, probably the entire Blue Lotus Sect has also developed such a style, weak, in the eyes of people who don't care about themselves, they will only become the target of ridicule, and in the eyes of those who care about themselves, it will only make them secretly sad, since no matter how you choose, it is not a good result, it is better to break your teeth and swallow the blood in your stomach.
One after another, naturally some people choose to leave, in the face of life and death, it is not a shame to choose the former, looking at their departing backs, Shui Linglong's face, somewhat lonely posture, these people, are all rescued one by one over the years, and among them, there are many people who have stayed here for more than ten years, people are emotional, reluctant, maybe it seeped out at that moment.
"Linglong!" Han Tanyi slowly stood up from a corner, he was an outsider, but he was already involved, at this moment, he didn't want to say anything about Shui Linglong's actions, the only thing he could do was maybe he could only hold her hand and pass on a trace of warmth in his heart, compared with Shui Linglong, maybe the flower butterfly at the moment was a little more lonely, she had been standing on that side, quietly watching this scene, although the face tried its best to stay calm, but in the corner of the eye, there was still a clear sense of jealousy and hatred。
Shui Linglong's hand, gently patted Han Tanyi, signaling that she was nothing, while letting go, her footsteps slowly walked towards the flower butterfly, the two people, looking at each other, each with their own thoughts, Shui Linglong smiled embarrassedly, so as to adjust her emotions by such a move, after all, when facing the flower butterfly, she always felt a little indebted.
"If you want me to go, then you don't have to speak, he can stay for the person he loves, why can't I?" When Shui Linglong's pace stopped, she didn't rush to speak, some words were quite easy to remember, but when she said them, she felt that it was difficult, so at this moment, she was somewhat silent, as if she was brewing something, but the flower butterfly came directly, when she said this, her eyes swept over Han Tanyi's body, even if he didn't have a Dao, but it couldn't be more obvious.
This time, Shui Linglong didn't know how to speak, she knew in her heart that the flower butterfly was an extremely smart and clever woman, even if you could find thousands of arguments, she could refute them one by one, speaking of which, the two people's temperaments are really a little similar, and they will not change what they believe, this is not a good habit, but it is not bad!
When the two people just looked at each other like that but did not speak, the atmosphere was somewhat weird, and even in that gaze, there was a bit of a competitive posture, of course, the very slight kind, the person who was leaving, had already left, although there were not many left at the moment, but there were still a few scattered ones, all waiting quietly, looking out through the window of the lobby, I could feel that the darkness of the night was a little deeper, and even the little moonlight that was still left was gone, obviously, the dawn was coming。
"Who?" Suddenly, Shui Linglong shouted sharply, and the four were still quiet, except for the inevitable wind in the mountains and forests, there was no abnormality, this time, it seemed that her actions were a little inexplicable, perhaps because the string was too tight, and there would be hallucinations inadvertently, at this moment, Han Tanyi also walked over, he didn't dare to face the face of the flower butterfly, so the head was a little buried, and asked softly: "What's wrong, Linglong?"
"Someone on the roof!" Shui Linglong's eyes looked towards the location where the eaves were, in fact, it was not just her, at this moment, almost all of them tilted their heads, wanting to capture something, the eaves are made of thin bamboo and wood structure, and they can't bear much weight, if someone really is on it, as long as they move slightly, they will be noticed, but obviously, the eaves are the eaves, and they don't move at all!
Old man Su was still drinking his own wine, in his eyes, it seemed that there was nothing more attractive than these two words, and it was strange to say, the gourd in his hand was not very big, if he kept drinking, he couldn't last long, but this night, the wine in the gourd seemed to be inexhaustible, as his hand moved up and down, there was a little dingdong sound, although there was not much, but there was a lot left.
What's even more strange is that he doesn't have a trace of sleepiness, an old person like him can't stay up late, but on the contrary, when he drinks vigorously, even with that look, it becomes a little more eye-catching, and the degree of full energy is no less than that of any young man, it can be seen that he regards himself as an outsider, otherwise how can he not care about such a sad parting scene?
"Since you're already here, why do you have to hide, this doesn't look like the style of a martial arts person!" Obviously, if you want to let Shui Linglong give up like this, it is obviously impossible, her tone is a little heavier, and even under the stirring of spiritual power, the roof has a slight trembling smell, and a touch of dust will wither down, of course, what falls is not just as simple as dust, along with this wisp, there is also a slender figure, from the curtain in front of the lobby, folded in.
"I'm not a Jianghu person, besides, the famous Blue Lotus Sect doesn't dare to be such a hospitable@" That posture, accompanied by the fluttering steps, is really a bit conspicuous, any young woman, itself will not be too ugly, of course, if placed in front of the flower butterfly and the water Linglong, her face does not have the slightest advantage, but on the contrary, there are some exotic unique styles, one after another, will not fall behind, this time, those maids who stayed, as if the green leaves, set off the three delicate flowers are extremely delicate.
"Is it you?" This person, maybe other people don't know, but in the eyes of the water lotus, there is a hint of surprise involuntarily, and even the tone is a little trembling, being called like this, the person who came seems to be a little strange, a pair of eyes naturally shifted to her, and asked tentatively in an incomprehensible voice: "Do you know me?"
"Of course, you have been out of the limelight and suffered all the anger in Jinjiang City, all this, I really see it under the high platform, Dugu Meng, the eldest lady of the Dugu family in southern Xinjiang, I am not wrong, right?" Water Lotus's words, naturally said very certainly, and even in the last rhetorical question, it was full of smug gestures, this identity was pierced at once, let everyone feel a little flustered, and Dugu Meng was naturally no exception, but that panicked look disappeared quickly, since she dared to come here, it was naturally fully prepared, any possibility, had already been expected: "That's right, I am Dugu Meng!"
"Your courage is really great, didn't that old man Dugu tell you that the Blue Lotus Sect is not the place where you should come?" Shui Linglong's voice suddenly became cold, and those eyes also revealed an unprecedented chill, which almost made all the people present can't help but beat in their hearts, Han Tanyi understands that it is murderous, but he is a little confused, even if this Dugu Meng's approach is a little impolite, the punishment does not need to be so strong!
