Chapter Seventy-One, I Feel It
[The 26th day of the first month of the tenth year of Daqian Jingyi, the time of the year, the Xu Mansion of Chang'an City]
As soon as He Mao Zhongxing saw Hu Yiyi, his face immediately changed, and he hurriedly bowed down to her respectfully and saluted: "He Mao greets Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother! Unexpectedly, Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother has also arrived in Chang'an......
"......" Hu Yiyi couldn't help but be stunned in her heart, her face was full of doubts, and she didn't know how to answer.
Xu Ke didn't know how to do it at the beginning, but after a little thought, he suddenly realized. He couldn't help but stroke his palms and laughed: "Brother He Mao, you are called the 'First Onmyoji' in vain, and there are times when you are deceived by others!"
He Mao Nahan said, "Brother Xu, is this ......?" He knew that he had recognized the wrong person, and his face couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
At this moment, after He Mao Zhongxing carefully looked at Hu Yiyi, he realized that although the woman in front of him and the queen mother of their Sang Kingdom were extremely similar in appearance, after all, their temperament and demeanor were still very different. The Empress Dowager Yoshida is a little thin, and her face is mostly a cold expression, which can compare to Hu Yiyi, the fairy of the blue waves at this time, with a slender posture and a full figure, her face is as warm as jade, and her beautiful eyes are as bright as autumn water......
What's more, after thinking about it for a while, He Mao felt that there was a great impossibility in this. After the "Susanoo" left that day, Yoshida Ryoko immediately lost all her memories of that past. At this time, Xu Ke was just a stranger to her. How could she suddenly appear in Xu Ke's mansion? Take 10,000 steps back, even if she remembered the past and came to meet her old lover secretly, how could she come here from a weak woman who was thousands of miles away from the ocean?
It can be seen that Kamo Tadayuki must have great respect for their Empress Dowager Yoshida's daily life. In addition, Hu Yiyi and Yoshida Ryoko look too similar, so he couldn't help but come forward to pay homage at first sight......
"Brother He Mao, I'm here to introduce you to ......" Xu Ke pointed at Hu Yiyi and said: "This sister's surname is Hu Yiyi, and the people of the rivers and lakes give her a nickname 'Bibo Fairy'!"
He pointed at Yao Zibei again and said, "This sister's name is Yao Zibei, she is Sister Hu's fourth sister and her apprentice. ”
"Kamo meets the fairy!"
"I've seen Miss Yao!"
He Mao Zhongxing gave a salute to the two women one by one, and the two women also returned the salute separately.
Xu Ke led He Mao Zhongxing into the room first, and Hu Yiyi behind him rolled his eyes, and said in his heart, I still have an identity, why don't you say it?
Yao Zibei couldn't help but pouted and said: "Brother Xu, don't forget, Sister Yiyi is still your wife......! What?"
Xu Ke, who was walking in front, suddenly looked embarrassed, he patted his forehead, and said in his heart, How can I forget this stubble? Right now, I and Sister Hu are staying together every day, not husband and wife or whatever! Today, in front of outsiders, it is a little uncomfortable to be introduced to my own lady like this.
Perhaps, Xu Ke at this time, although the person is ten years later, his heart is ten years ago. In his mind, Hu Yiyi is still the fairy with fluttering red clothes and untainted customs, and the big sister who lives in the Hazelly House and rarely goes out, drinking tea and chatting with him in the back garden every day. It was introduced to him in front of his friends today, and he blurted out that he was thinking about Hu Yiyi, and he didn't take into account it, and the most important identity of Hu Yiyi at the moment was his wife!
Sometimes, even Xu Ke himself can't tell whether the "Yiyi" in front of him is Hu Yiyi? or the "Sister Hu" who stayed in Xu's house ten years ago to pack up is Hu Yiyi. Now, in this world ten years later, Xu Ke and his "Yiyi" linger night and night, like glue and paint, and love is incomparable, I really don't know how to deal with her when I go back to ten years ago and see the "Sister Hu" in Xu's house again?
He Mao saw that Xu Ke didn't explain, and he didn't say much, a few people went to the Wenyu Pavilion in the back garden to sit down, and Yao Zibei brought the lunch that had already been prepared. On this day, Murong Yan and Yiqing both went out, and they didn't know which mountain to go hunting. The four of them sat together in the Wenyu Pavilion, and the guests and hosts gathered happily to have lunch together, eat and drink, and chat casually.
During his conversation with He Mao, Yao Zibei learned that he came from Mulberry Country, and heard all kinds of anecdotes about the seaside island country, and he couldn't help but have fun in his mouth. Hu Yiyi said with a smile, he also traveled to Sang Country in his early years, and the island scenery was beautiful, and if there was a chance in the future, the sisters could also go to Sang Country to have a good life together.
Yao Zibei was quite curious about how He Mao could cross the sea of thousands of miles and go back and forth between Sang and Qian. Xu Ke explained to him the subtleties of He Maozhongxing's "Rakshasa Cloud Moving Technique". Yao Zibei was overjoyed when he heard this, and kept begging He Mao that one day she would be allowed to ride in the car and understand the fun of stepping on the clouds, and He Mao immediately smiled and agreed......
He Mao Zhongxing also listened to Hu Yiyi's words, she herself is actually a fox demon who has practiced for more than 1,200 years, and she was fortunate to be rescued by Xu Ke back then, so she escaped the catastrophe. After hearing these words, he was even more amazed by the frankness and frankness of the Bibo Fairy and the peerless demeanor in his heart.
Moreover, as to why Hu Yiyi looks exactly the same as Yoshida Ryoko, He Mao has a rough answer in his heart.
Foxes, who practice for 600 years, can enter the realm of demons, and once they become demons, they can transform into human forms at will. It must be that when the blue wave fairy was wandering away from the Mulberry country, she happened to see the appearance of Yoshida Ryoko or Ryoko's mother. She felt something in her heart, and her body naturally changed, and inadvertently, she became exactly the same as Yoshida Ryoko.
However, after all, He Mao was only conjecturing in his heart, and his thoughts would not be made clear to Xu Ke. Moreover, at this time, although Hu Yiyi's face looks exactly the same as Yoshida Ryoko, her figure is taller, and her figure is also graceful and full, plus her graceful appearance and charming, this style of birth is more gorgeous than Yoshida Ryoko.
He Mao also sighed in his heart, it is estimated that this blue wave fairy never dreamed of it. The beauty she met by chance in Sang Country made her feel that she had a person with almost the same face, and later met by chance, and her husband Xu Ke actually had a "husband and wife relationship".
The world is such a coincidence, the more you think it's impossible, the more it will happen, and who's to say it's not?
Time flies, noon has passed in a blink of an eye, lunch has been over, He Mao will take his leave. When parting, the two talked proudly, so Xu Ke invited He Mao to come back in the evening and share dinner with everyone, but He Mao still gladly agreed.
After seeing He Mao off, Xu Ke paced back and forth in his yard. He saw that after ten days of repair, the four walls of this huge Xu house were about to be repaired. With the barrier of the fence, I can finally feel the atmosphere of some mansions. In addition to the fence that has been repaired, the corridor under the feet, the stone slabs in the front yard, and the rocks in the pool in the back garden are ...... The craftsmen have cleaned and restored it
。 In this house, I can already vaguely see some of the past style......
Hu Yiyi saw that Xu Ke was very interested, so he accompanied him to walk around in the front yard and back garden. Xu Ke asked where Yan'er went today, and Hu Yiyi said that Xiaoyan was going to go hunting with Yiqing today, and Yiqing had to agree. However, with Yiqing by her side, Xiao Yan will be fine.
The two talked about Murong Yan, and Hu Yiyi couldn't help but continue the topic of that night, and asked Xu Ke why he just refused to go to Murong Yan's Honghu Residence? Speaking of which, back then, this "Honghu Residence" was Xu Ke's own residence.
As soon as he said this, Xu Ke immediately blushed. He had to talk about it left and right. Hu Yiyi couldn't help but feel sorry in her heart, seeing Xu Ke so embarrassed, she couldn't bear it, shook her head, sighed, and stopped asking.
The two went to the Wenyu Pavilion to sit down again, and Hu Yiyi soaked two bowls of warm water. The two used water as tea, drinking it slowly, and talking casually.
After a while, Hu Yiyi suddenly said:
"Xiao Wuxi, I will discuss one thing with you!"
"What's the matter, Yiyi?"
"That's it...... Forget it, I won't tell you!"
"What the hell is going on?"
"This matter is related to you, and you must agree! But at the moment, I can't tell you...... You just have to be ready and ...... when the time comes. You'll find out!"
Xu Ke heard it in a fog, kept scratching his forehead, and said:
"Sister Hu, what did you arrange for me?"
"Hah...... Of course it's a good thing!" Hu Yiyi picked up the tea bowl, opened her mouth and drank the slightly astringent water, remembering the fun of "this matter", she couldn't help but smile brightly.
"Okay...... As long as my sister is happy!" Xu Ke scratched his forehead and smiled bitterly in his heart.
......
......
Unconsciously, it was the end of Shen again, and Yiqing and Murong Yan slowly returned with a large bag of "prey". This time, Yiqing was extremely happy, just because she was a hundred miles away from Chang'an, but she was able to hit a long-horned red-haired monster. She and Murong Yan drove the long-horned monster to Chang'an East City, and it was really sold for a good price. They also used the silver taels they had sold to buy some good things for their families. Today, in Chang'an East City, there are people selling some fine household goods, I heard that they were dug deep into the ruins of a former official mansion. The stall owner happened to put out the goods, and he happened to be met by Yiqing and Murong Yan. When the two women saw that the stall owner was selling all the women's cosmetics, they were overjoyed and bought almost all the stall owner's goods back at any cost.
Everyone opened Yiqing's big pocket and saw that it was full of all kinds of good goods. There are copper mirrors, silver basins, wooden combs, powder boxes, flower stands, curtain hooks, needles and threads, etc., most of which are women's boudoir things. All the women were overjoyed and cheered. Yiqing took out another pair of long-horned essence yuan from his pocket, handed it to Xu Ke, and said:
"Sick wood, this ...... Here you go!"
"It's the horned essence again! I won't eat it! I won't eat it!" Xu Ke saw the bright red flesh and bone in the broken horn, and he couldn't help but feel sick and nauseated in his abdomen, and immediately waved his hand again and again.
"That's ...... for you Great supplement!" Yiqing said impatiently. After that, she also muttered in a low voice: "Someone offered a high price of one hundred taels today, and I am reluctant to sell it!"
"No, no, no! I ...... that day. I'm so uncomfortable, it must be because I ate more of this!" Xu Ke remembered the situation with Hu Yiyi in Xuchang Tubao that night, and couldn't help but have red cheeks and dry mouth.
"Oh, why are you so ignorant! I heard you call me 'second sister'. The second sister saw that you were so well-behaved, so she gave you a meeting gift! This long-horned essence is a great replenishment of sperm and blood, how many men can't eat it even if they dream of it!" Yiqing said with a smile again. However, there was also some "ill-intention" in her smile at the moment......
At this time, except for Xu Ke, the rest of the women knew the "wonderful use" of this long-horned essence. When the women saw that Yiqing was going to force Xu Ke to swallow the long-horned essence at this moment, they couldn't help but feel stunned in their hearts, and Yao Zibei couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Brother Xu, take advantage of the freshness...... Eat it quickly! It will lose its effectiveness tomorrow! The second sister is not willing to sell even a hundred taels of silver, and she will definitely keep it for you. How can you live up to the second sister's heart for you!" Yao Zibei said with a smile.
"However, I ate five pairs of this last time, and then I was really uncomfortable...... Xu Ke hesitated.
Yiqing said: "The last time you ate five pairs in one go, it was to replenish your blood and continue your life, but there was no way, it was to eat a little more." There is only one pair today, what are you afraid of!" After saying that, she stretched her hand forward and sent the bloody long-horned essence to Xu Ke's eyes again.
"This ......" Xu Ke stretched out his hand to take the long-horned essence yuan, looked at Hu Yiyi, and showed a look of help. He said in his heart, you are their eldest sister, and only you can save me at this moment.
Unexpectedly, Hu Yiyi laughed softly: "Xiao Wuxi, Zibei is right, if the long-horned essence is not concocted by a secret method, it will lose its medicinal effect after overnight." Moreover, taking it while it is fresh that day, the effect is the best! Now in this demonized world, there can still be such a great thing to replenish Yuan Yang, that is already a great gift from God to us human beings! How much hard did your second sister endure today to fight this long-horned monster? How can you live up to her heart? ......! Eat it!"
Seeing that Hu Yiyi was also talking like this, Xu Ke had no choice but to endure the pungent smell of blood, and opened his mouth to swallow all the flesh and bones into his stomach.
Yiqing clapped her hands and smiled: "It's still the eldest sister who has a way! The eldest sister is really a medical immortal! I know that this long-horned essence is really a rare tonic in this world." If it weren't for the eldest sister talking today, if this sick wood had to make a difference, it would have wasted this good medicine! It seems that the only person who can repair this sick wood is you, eldest sister......
Hu Yiyi hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Second sister, don't say that, the second sister is a rectum, how can you not drink this medicine you called today? My little bit of medical skill is just a flash of fire in front of her......"
Yi Qing Dynasty Xu Ke looked at it, and saw that he still had a rather aggrieved look on his face, and he didn't feel funny in his heart, and suddenly sighed: "Ahem...... It's a pity that this longhorned essence can only be given to men. I'm not a man, otherwise, where would all these good things get you this sick wood?!"
Yao Zibei also stroked his palm and smiled: "Second sister, it would be great if you were a man! Xiaobei is the first to marry you!"
Yiqing pursed his lips, pretending not to look down, and said, "I don't want it!
A ...... to marry Of course it's my little sister......! Baby...... Come on, give my sister a kiss!" After that, she really stretched out her pair of "claws", pounced on the third sister beside her, and opened her mouth to kiss her. Murong Yan hurriedly screamed "ah", frightened like a frightened rabbit, and fled towards the stove.
"Second sister, you are partial!Why don't you want to marry me!" Yao Zibei screamed.
"Okay, okay, I'll marry you together, you're my third lady!" Yiqing replied casually while laughing and chasing after Murong Yan.
"Third lady, why isn't it the second lady?" Yao Zibei also rushed towards the stove.
"Second lady...... Of course it's my little baby!" Yiqing smiled from afar.
"It turns out that you still want to marry the eldest sister, you are so bad!"
"It's a shame that you're not a man, otherwise, my brother Xu would be ...... Hahaha!"
......
By this time, the three women were already hugging each other, and they were playing and laughing as they walked towards the stove. Later, the three of them were already in a mess, and they didn't know who was kissing whom......
Hu Yiyi looked at her three younger sisters, like three naughty children at the moment, laughing casually, so innocent. She couldn't help but smile happily on her face, and she seemed to say to herself:
"Yiqing is really a good girl!Ake...... why didn't you let her come to Xuchang before?"
Xu Ke said blankly: "I didn't let her come to Xuchang before?"
At this time, Hu Yiyi suddenly had a few tears in the corners of her eyes, and she hurriedly turned around and didn't let Xu Ke see it.
"Sister Hu, do you remember the previous 'me'?" asked Xu Ke.
"No!" Hu Yiyi stretched out his hand to wipe away the few tears from the corners of his eyes, changed his normal look, and said: "He told me very clearly! He is really tired of this demonic world, and he doesn't want to linger in this desperate world! He just wants to step into heaven and be his immortal from now on! Live his happy life! He insists on this...... What can I do?!"
Xu Ke was puzzled: "He...... Is this really what the 'I' of this world says?" He still didn't believe in his heart, ten years later, he could be so ruthless and bear to leave these four peerless women in the world, and just go to heaven alone?
According to his heart at the moment, as long as he is accompanied by these four confidants, even if the sky falls, he is unwilling to leave the Xu Mansion for half a step......
Go up to heaven and be an immortal, so what? After becoming an immortal, can you be as happy as you are in front of you?
"Let's not mention him, he can go wherever he likes! It has nothing to do with us from now on......," Hu Yiyi added, and her voice seemed to be a little choked.
Xu Ke can hear that the "Yiyi" in front of him is still the "self" ten years later.
It's just that why did the "self" of this world insist on leaving them? To this day, he still can't think of a reason. As for what Hu Yiyi said, "himself" is to go to heaven to be an immortal and escape from the suffering of the demon world, he will not believe it anyway, and he does not want to believe it......
"That's right, my sister wants to explain to you!" Hu Yiyi suddenly turned pale and said solemnly: "Xiao Wuxi, you have to live in Xiao Yan's room tonight!"
"Ah, it's this again!" Xu Ke smiled bitterly again.
"Sister Hu, can we stop mentioning this matter?"
"No, tonight, you have to listen to my sister!"
......
......
After a while, when it was time to be in the middle of the day, He Mao Zhongxing visited the Xu Mansion again. Yao Zibei, Murong Yan, and Yiqing have also made dinner. The crowd took their seats together in the restored antechamber. Xu Ke brought a large table and put several dishes on the table, all of which were meat such as "stewed bear meat", "roast wolf meat" and "tiger meat stew". What is rare is the large pot of "red mushroom broth" placed in the center of the table. The bag of red mushrooms picked by Yiqing before, everyone tried to save some food, and today it has finally bottomed out. Murong Yan put all the remaining red mushrooms into the bear meat and stewed, and the aroma of the broth had already overflowed the entire Xu Mansion at this time.
After everyone was seated, Xu Ke introduced He Mao Zhongxing to Yiqing and Murong Yan. After everyone gave a little salute, it was still Yiqing's "order", and everyone started to use the dishes and chopsticks, and opened their mouths to chew.
Xu Ke suddenly remembered that this morning, the emperor specially ordered someone to send a pot of forty-year-old Fenyang drunk. He hurriedly asked Yao Zibei to fetch the pot of Fenyang, opened the lid of the pot and wanted to pour wine for He Mao.
He Mao stopped him and said, "Brother Xu, this pot of Fenyang drunk is too valuable!
Xu Ke smiled and said: "It's okay! Good wine with friends! Brother He Mao is here today, this pot of wine is drunk at the right time!"
He Mao Zhongxing still waved his hand and smiled: "Brother Xu, I have a way, we can use this pot of Fenyang as a guide to attract another pot of Fenyang......"
Xu Ke said: "Brother He Mao still has this ability!"
He Mao Zhongxing took the Fenyang drunk in Xu Ke's hand, he leaned over to the spout and sniffed it a few times, then covered the wine jug and handed it back to Yao Zibei.
Everyone saw He Mao take out a piece of paper from his arms, he moved his hands together, folded out the shape of a puppet, and at the same time recited the true recipe in his mouth, and threw the humanoid piece of paper into the air, and a woman dressed in white immediately appeared next to everyone. Xu Ke remembered that the woman in white was the Shikimi Michiko he had seen in the Kamo Mansion before.
He Mao slapped his palm a few times to the god, and saw Michiko's figure disappear suddenly, and before long, she quietly appeared in the front hall of the Xu Mansion, and there was already a pot of Fenyang in her hand.
He Mao took Fenyang from Michiko's hand and opened the lid of the pot, Xu Ke only felt that a smell of wine came to his nose, and it was an authentic forty-year-old Fenyang wine!
"Brother He Mao, you pot of Fenyang drunk...... It can't be stolen, right?" Xu Ke looked at the pot of Fenyang in Yao Zibei's hand, and saw two pots of fine wine, and the appearance was almost identical, so he asked with a smile.
"Don't say it, don't say it!" Brother Xu ...... Since the wine has been brought uninvited, why don't you and I drink it freely?" replied with a smile.
Xu Ke took a sip of the wine glass and He Mao, he only felt that the wine was mellow and fragrant, such a pot of good wine, in his memory, he didn't know how many years he hadn't drunk it.
When all the women saw that He Mao Zhongxing had such a ability, they were all amazed. At the moment, six people gathered around a large square table, drinking wine, chewing meat, and serving soup...... They were all talking and laughing loudly, they were all inexplicably happy, and tonight, this Xu house was very lively again......
