Chapter 33: Painting the Man
Xuan Qi quietly followed behind the man in black, who was extremely fast, and saw that he had already turned the corner of the mountain in front of him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Xuanqi quickened his pace, and also arrived at the corner of the mountain, and slowly leaned over, wanting to investigate first.
A sword light flashed out from around the corner, heading straight for Xuan Qi's throat. Xuan Qi was short in a hurry, and the long sword passed over his head. Moving quickly under his feet, he had already jumped onto a stone on the opposite side, and the man in black had already appeared in front of him, masked, but only revealing a pair of sharp eyes.
Xuan Qi's long sword was raised, and the fourth form of the "Seven Star Sword Technique" was already used, and the tip of the sword jumped, enveloping the whole body of the man in black. The man in black didn't panic, and when the tip of the sword jumped, it was a trick like a morning star. The twin swords kept staggering through the air, and it was obvious that the man in black didn't want the sound of the fight to alarm the people who were camping not far away.
Xuan Qi took two steps back from his sword, and asked in a suppressed voice, "Who are you?"
The man in black also put away his sword and retreated, but his left hand pulled down the black scarf that covered his face.
"Team Leader Xuanyi! It's you?"
Genichi's face was revealed in the moonlight. But he didn't speak, just nodded.
Xuan Qi took two steps forward, grabbed Xuan Yi's arm, and asked, "Team leader, where is Xuan Si? And did all the people from the Seven Star Villa come to Qinling? When I went back, I didn't find anyone. What the hell is going on?"
"Don't know what you shouldn't know! When you should know, you'll know." ā
Xuan Qi understood the rules of the "Dark Star Pavilion", and nodded immediately and said, "There is one thing, please tell me by all means!"
"Say!"
"Is Xuan Si okay?"
"Xuan Si didn't go back to Seven Star Villa, and no one knows where she is at the moment. Xuan Yi looked into Xuan Qi's eyes and said that Xuan Qi knew that he was not lying, and he didn't know whether to feel happy or hesitate for a while.
Xuan Yi continued: "Maybe she is still in this Qinling Mountains. ā
Xuan Qi sighed and said, "Hope!" took out the treasure map from his arms and handed it to Xuan Yi: "This is the treasure map found from the Zhenbei Palace." ā
Xuanyi didn't answer, and said, "I'll put it here for you first! I'll look for you when you need it." ā
Xuan Qi was a little puzzled and wanted to ask, but Xuan Yi waved his hand and said, "Don't ask more! ā
Xuan Qi was stunned for a moment, but Xuan Yi had already unfolded his body, and a few ups and downs were already more than ten zhang away.
Xuan Qi wanted to shout to stop Xuan Yi, but he didn't dare to make a loud noise, for fear of alarming the people in the camp, so he had to spread his body and chase after him. After chasing for a while, Xuanyi had disappeared into the darkness and could no longer be seen.
Xuan Qi returned to the camp with a stomach full of questions, Ling'er seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time, and when he saw Xuan Qi coming back from a distance, he asked with some suspicion: "Black boy, where have you been?"
"People have three urgencies, where do you think I should go?"
Ling'er pulled out her long sword and pointed it at me, but she didn't know what to say, her little feet paused, and she turned back angrily, but she got into the tent and didn't come out again.
Xia Lingshuang on the side sneered, shook his head, pointed to the ground on the side, and said, "Please sit!"
"Miss Xia, is there something wrong?" Xuan Qi didn't sit down, holding the long sword to his chest and asked.
"You're afraid of me?"
Xuan Qi shrugged his shoulders and sat opposite Xia Lingshuang with an indifferent look.
"Is your surname really Qi?"
Xuan Qi was stunned, did this girl find something?
"What does Miss Xia think I should have my last name?"
Xia Lingshuang hesitated a little, but still said, "Perhaps, you should be surnamed Li." ā
"Why do you say that?"
"I don't know either!" Xia Lingshuang paused and said, "You are very much like a person." ā
"Who is it?" Xuan Qi suddenly became a little excited.
"A man on a painting. ā
"The person on the painting?" Xuan Qi was a little dazed.
"Yes. ā
"Can you show me the painting?"
Xia Lingshuang didn't answer, and asked, "Did you apply disfigurement medicine to your face?"
Xuan Qi was stunned, but he didn't know how Xia Lingshuang knew: "How do you know?"
Xia Lingshuang smiled and said, "The color on your arm tells mine." ā
"I see!
"Can you let me see your true face?" Xia Lingshuang said, with some expectation in her voice.
Xuan Qi was a little surprised, and couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, thinking to himself what is the purpose of this Xia Lingshuang?
Xia Lingshuang saw Xuan Qi's hesitant look, and continued: "Because your eyes are really very similar to that person, they can be said to be exactly the same." That's why I say you're a lot like that guy. ā
"Why should I trust you?" asked Xuan Qi.
"Yes! It's Ling Shuang who is reckless. Please forgive Brother Qi!" Xia Lingshuang's sincere voice, Xuan Qi could hear it completely. "Would you like to hear the story of the man who painted it?"
"Miss Xia, please speak, Qi listens!"
"When I was two or three years old, one day, my aunt came back from outside. After I came back, I hid in my room and didn't come out to see anyone. My father was very troubled, so he often carried me to my aunt's room. My aunt was very kind to me, but she often stared at a painting for a long time. ā
Xia Lingshuang paused, and her voice was a little sad: "At that time, I was still young, and I didn't know why my aunt was always staring at that painting in a daze. I was curious to peek at the painting. There are three people in the painting, one is my aunt, one is a young man, and one is a little boy. I asked my aunt who the man and the child were, but she just hugged me and cried, and wouldn't tell me. ā
"Later, I grew up a little bit. My father told me that the man in the painting was my aunt's lover, and that the child was my aunt's child. Xia Lingshuang stopped, her voice a little choked.
"Are you alright?" asked Xuanqi.
"It's okay! Thank you!" Xia Lingshuang stabilized her mind a little, and continued: "One day, my aunt's lover and child disappeared,"
Xuan Qi was a little surprised, and lost his voice: "Missing?"
"Yes. My aunt searched for them for a long time, but she never found them. Later, when my aunt came back, she painted that picture. ā
Xuan Qi was a little excited and asked, "Is the person on the painting the person you said to be very similar to my eyes?"
"Yes. ā
"Is it the man, or the child?" Xuan Qi's voice trembled slightly.
"It's all like!"
What does this prove? There are many people in the world who are alike, let alone a pair of similar eyes. Xuan Qi pretended to be calm.
Therefore, Ling Shuang took the liberty of wanting to take a look at Brother Qi's true face. Xia Lingshuang stood up and took a step closer.
Xuan Qi didn't back down, raised his head and looked at Xia Lingshuang and said, "Maybe after seeing my true face, you will be disappointed?"
Xia Lingshuang took another step closer and said, "Maybe you won't be disappointed?"
Xuan Qi stood up, took two steps back, and suddenly felt a little scared. As for what he was afraid of, he couldn't figure it out himself.
"Now is not the time! Maybe one day, I will let Miss Xia see her true face. But not now. Xuan Qi said a little resolutely.
"Okay! Ling Shuangzhu didn't force Brother Qi anymore. When you figure it out one day, you can come to me. Xia Lingshuang sighed, feeling a little disappointed.
Xuan Qi didn't say anything more, turned around and left. He felt that his heart was a little chaotic, and he just wanted to find a place to think quietly.
