Chapter 16: Storytelling
At that time, Ye Xiaobai was just a mortal, and he was no different from ants in front of Nangong Hao.
I didn't have time to reflect at all, and I couldn't reflect it, and in an instant, Ye Xiaobai was going to be under Nangong Hao.
The other disciples of the Star Picking Sect also watched from the wall, firstly, they did not have the strength and qualifications to hinder Nangong Hao, and secondly, they could not rebel against Nangong Hao for Ye Xiaobai.
The ending was naturally Ruan Ruoshui who rescued Ye Xiaobai, and Ye Xiaobai was stunned for a while before he reacted, and he almost lost his life.
There are more episodes of heroes saving beauties, but beauties save Britain.... Belch.... There are really few stories of saving the kid. The fate of Ye Xiaobai and Ruan Ruoshui came to an end.
Later, he learned that Ye Xiaobai was the only survivor in Yejia Village and had an innocent background, so he tested his root bones again, and found that his roots were acceptable, so Ruan Ruoshui took Ye Xiaobai back to the Star Picking Sect as an elite disciple of the Star Picking Sect and became a miscellaneous disciple.
Within the Star Picking Sect, the status of elite disciples is extremely high.
Ruan Ruoshui's obstruction undoubtedly ruined Nangong Hao's face, Nangong Hao naturally couldn't argue with Ruan Ruoshui for such a thing, in addition to pretending to be generous and indifferent, he naturally put this account on Ye Xiaobai's head in his heart.
Although Ruan Ruoshui is kind, Nangong Hao has never seen her take such care of a man, especially Ye Xiaobai has gone from a mountain boy to a forging body and gathering spirits to reach the mortal realm and become a disciple within three years.
Therefore, Nangong Hao instructed Liao Siwen to give Ye Xiaobai some special "care".
As for the date between the two, it only started a year ago, after the two accidentally met here. At that time, Ruan Ruoshui had almost forgotten Ye Xiaobai's existence.
"Before I knew it, I didn't expect that four years had passed. β
Speaking of the past, Ye Xiaobai suddenly sighed, and the joking look on his face was also put away.
Looking at Ye Xiaobai who was looking into the distance, Ruan Ruoshui frowned slightly. She didn't understand too much the sadness that Ye Xiaobai suddenly revealed.
Feeling that Ruan Ruoshui was looking at him, Ye Xiaobai immediately cleaned up his mood, his two eyebrows moved, the corners of his mouth smiled, and said, "How is it, are you attracted by my melancholy temperament?"
Ruan Ruoshui was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth suddenly rose, and he turned his head and said, "You, you are always not serious." β
Looking into the distance, Ye Xiaobai made a look of vicissitudes and said: "It's so tiring to live, if you want to do something so serious, people should be prodigal and do whatever they want." β
Looking at Ye Xiaobai, Ruan Ruoshui shook his head, his face calm, "Continue to tell me the story from last time." β
"Yes!"
Seeing that Ruan Ruoshui wanted to listen to the story, Ye Xiaobai immediately agreed, and just as he was about to speak, he immediately disconnected and asked, "By the way, where did we talk last time?"
"I need love more than you do. Ruan Ruoshui said simply and clearly, and added a bit of tone.
"Uh...... Yes, yes, last time I preached that I need love here more than you do. Ye Xiaobai felt that Ruan Ruoshui's tone was a little weird, deliberate?
Forget it, tell a story.
Ye Xiaobai coughed twice, cleared his throat, and began to speak: "Saying that Xiaoqian was caught back by her grandmother with a withered branch, Ning Caichen knelt at Yan Chixia's feet, kept kowtowing, and asked Yan Chixia to rescue Xiaoqian, Yan Chixia saw that Ning Caichen kept kowtowing, so she helped him up and said: "You bastard, how can you still have so much love, even I don't want you to bother me, how can there be an unrealistic person like you in this world, when I was young, I also fantasized as much as you, and I need love more than you!" After speaking, Yan Chixia turned around and didn't look at Ning Caichen. β
I have to say that Ye Xiaobai is a good storyteller, and his tone and speed of speech are very good, and he acts while talking, imitating the tone of Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia.
Ruan Ruoshui quickly listened to it.
Under the bright night sky, the mountain peaks are lined up, the river reflects the stars in the sky, and on the Luo Ri Peak of the Star Picking Sect, a pair of men and women sit side by side on the ground, the woman looks stunning, and quietly listens to the man on the side telling the story in a colorful voice.
Because of the urgency of time, Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia brought all the ashes they dug back to the inn, and placed the ashes on the wooden table, Ning Caichen looked anxious, and said to several ashes: "Xiaoqian, if you are one of them, quickly show up to meet us!" After speaking, Ning Caichen looked at the ashes altar anxiously, and his heart was uncertain. β
At this moment, several women's weak voices sounded, saying, "Childe, you are looking for me." A gust of cold wind blew, and four women dressed in white, with long hair and faces as white as paper, appeared in front of Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia. β
"These four female ghosts are not Xiaoqian. β
Ning Caichen didn't see Xiao Qian's figure, and immediately became anxious, and said to Yan Chixia: "I didn't see Xiao Qian, I must have taken it by mistake!" Yan Chixia was also helpless, so she had to let the female ghosts take their ashes and leave, and strictly ordered them not to harm people in the future. β
Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia dug up a total of five ashes, and there was only one left on the table at the moment. Ning Caichen rushed forward, hugged the last urn with both hands, and said almost pleadingly: "Now there is only this last one left, Xiaoqian, if it is you, you come out quickly, come out quickly!" After speaking, Ning Caichen put his forehead against the table, pleading, worried, he didn't dare to look at it at all, he was afraid that this last urn would not come out of the figure he wanted to see. β
"Childe, you're looking for me. Then a hoarse man's voice rang out. "How is it a man, there is no hope. Ning Caichen's last bit of hope was also dashed. β
Just when Ning Caichen was already desperate, there were a few knocks on the window by the window, "Childe, are you looking for me, what do you keep telling me to do!" It turned out to be the voice of the shopkeeper, not a ghost. β
Yan Chixia was angry and annoyed, and stepped forward to scold the shopkeeper, told him to get out of here, and closed the window. Just when Yan Chixia closed the window and turned around, she was suddenly stunned. β
Ye Xiaobai paid attention to Ruan Ruoshui's expression as she spoke, and at this moment, she saw that her originally frowning brows suddenly stretched.
Ning Caichen saw Yan Chixia staring behind him, turned his head, and immediately turned back, he almost couldn't believe his eyes-it was really Xiaoqian!
Ning Caichen immediately stepped forward and hugged Nie Xiaoqian, "Xiaoqian", "Caichen" - seeing each other like this! Seeing the two meet, the bearded Yan Chixia also smiled heartily, and even turned her head to touch her tears. β
Nie Xiaoqian bowed to Yan Chixia and thanked him for saving his life. Yan Chixia is a chivalrous man with five big and three rough, and in the face of Nie Xiaoqian's gratitude, although she was extremely useful in her heart, she still waved her hand pretending to be good, and asked him to get up in a rough voice, looking extremely impatient. even went out to change horses under the pretext of leaving space for Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian, so that the two of them wasted time. β
"The matter of the snowy night, Yan Chixia, a bearded person, doesn't know much about it. β
While speaking, Ye Xiaobai still looked like Yan Chixia's expression and demeanor when she spoke, which made Ruan Ruoshui purse her lips and smile again, and the night was a little more beautiful.
Seeing Ruan Ruoshui's joy to hear it, Ye Xiaobai continued: "Yan Chixia has gone out, at this moment Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian are hugging each other tightly, how hard-won this moment is. After a while, Ning Caichen took out the picture of the lady, the two of them polished the ink, Ning Caichen first wrote on the painting "Ten miles of Pinghu frost sky", Nie Xiaoqian continued to write "inch by inch green silk sorrowful Chinese year". β
In this way, the two of them wrote a poem together, and the whole poem is: Ten miles of Pinghu is full of frost, every inch of green silk is sad for the Chinese year, and the moon-shaped single looks at each other, only envy the mandarin duck and not the immortal. β
At this time, Ruan Ruoshui suddenly spoke up, interrupted Ye Xiaobai, and said softly: "Ten miles of Pinghu is full of frost, every inch of green silk is sad for the Chinese year, looking at each other at the moon-shaped, only envying the mandarin ducks and not the immortals." It's so beautiful, that Ning Caichen is just a scholar. β
Ye Xiaobai knew that Ruan Ruoshui must have been infected by this story.
A powerless scholar dares to risk his life several times for love to save his lover, even if he knows that they will say goodbye tomorrow.
In this world where there are many sects, strict hierarchies, and strength is respected, how can a love story like "A Chinese Ghost Story" not move a woman like Ruan Ruoshui.
A hero saves beauty, far less powerful than a helpless scholar, forgetting life and death for love can move people's hearts more and tug at the heartstrings of these girls.
"Did you make up this story?" Ruan Ruoshui asked.
"No, it's the story of my hometown, if you like it, I'll tell you it later. β
"Yejia Village?" Ruan Ruoshui was a little puzzled. It was hard for her to believe that such a poignant and moving story could be circulated in a place like Yejia Village.
Ye Xiaobai shook his head and said, "It's a far, far away place, a place that I can never go back to." β
Ye Xiaobai's words made her a little puzzled, but Ruan Ruoshui didn't ask, and said: "I like the poems you said very much, they are really well written." Are those words you said that time also poetry?"
"Ahh β
Seeing Ruan Ruoshui suddenly mention the past when the two of them met for the first time, Ye Xiaobai was a little embarrassed, it sounds good for a hero to save a beauty, but a beauty saves a hero...... Moreover, at that time, he, the "hero", even held his life in the hands of others, and he was very embarrassed.
"That time was just to praise you, you know that I have never seen the world as a mountain boy, and suddenly I saw such a beautiful girl as you, and I thought it was a fairy who came down to earth. There is absolutely no frivolous profanity. β
A misunderstanding a few years ago, Ye Xiaobai can be regarded as finding an opportunity to explain.
"No need to explain, I don't blame you. "Otherwise, I'd rather believe that there are ghosts in this world than believe in the mouth of men.
Ye Xiaobai's words, the explanation is incidental, and praise is the main thing. Therefore, no matter what the world is, as long as a woman doesn't like others to praise her beauty.
"That's good, that's good. Let's move on to the story. Ye Xiaobai proposed.
"Good. β

Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
A quarter of an hour later, the story of "A Chinese Ghost Story" was finished, and the lovers finally failed to get married.
Ye Xiaobai turned his head and actually saw Ruan Ruoshui with tears in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel surprised.
Ruan Ruoshui is also an elite disciple of the Star Picking Sect, a martial artist in the Jindan period, and a Ruoshui fairy who is famous in Dongzhou! The story of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is touching and touching, but it is not to the point of making a master of the Jindan period cry.
Surprise, surprise, surprise.
"Am I talking too well? Well, it must be. Ye Xiaobai began to lose confidence again......
"Why? Why can't you keep them together, did you say that on purpose?"
Ruan Ruoshui pear blossom with rain and questioned Ye Xiaobai, her eyes were clearly dissatisfied. Beauty, angry are so good-looking.
"No, no, no, it's definitely not me. That's the story. A tragic ending can sublimate the emotions of the whole story, and if everyone is happy, it will fall into clichΓ©s. You don't have to be so sad, it's just a story. β
Looking at Ruan Ruoshui's beautiful eyes with tears and an angry look, Ye Xiaobai's heartbeat sped up by a few beats.
"It's not you!"
Ye Xiaobai really wanted to suck himself in a big mouth. Just say it, explain what you are doing so much, and now the yellow mud falls off the crotch of your pants - it's not but is.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Ye Xiaobai had an idea, and hurriedly said: "Ruoshui, don't worry, this story is not over yet, and there is a second chapter, which is a happy ending." β
Ye Xiaobai overestimated the essence of a martial artist and underestimated the nature of a woman.
A woman in the Jindan period, she is also a woman!
"Really?" Hearing Ye Xiaobai say this, Ruan Ruoshui's mood calmed down a bit.
"Really, absolutely, I'll tell you about it right away. β
The movies of "A Chinese Ghost Story", Ye Xiaobai watched it several times.
Ruan Ruoshui shook his head and said, "Forget it this time, you will tell me next time." β
"Good. β
The stars are shining brightly, and the night is picturesque. On the cliff of Luo Ri Peak of this Star Picking Sect, Ye Xiaobai and Ruan Ruoshui didn't speak anymore, and sat quietly until dawn broke in the east.
