You are cruel, ruthless, and cold. You can only laugh but not cry. No one knows that the bright red tear mole in the corner of your eye is a drop of dried blood and tears.
A small green wool sedan was parked on one side of the official road. Outside the sedan, dozens of people were fighting.
Durian sat in the sedan chair, his heart rising and falling with the fighting outside. He could no longer remember how many assassinations he had suffered along the way, nor could he count how many of his group had been killed. I only remember that when he set off, he was riding in a gorgeous gold-plated carriage. Behind the carriage were more than 20 attendants on horseback. But now, apart from the four bearers carrying the sedan, there were only three people outside fighting with the assassins. .
Durian moved in the sedan chair and secretly glanced at the woman sitting opposite him.
The woman is sitting on the brocade cushion in the sedan chair, her black hair is tied sideways into a bun, and she looks lazy. She watched the fighting outside for a while along the crack in the window, then lowered the curtain as if she was tired of it, reached out to stroke the feathers of the red-billed parrot in her arms, and closed her eyes lazily.
Durian gritted his teeth secretly and cursed in his heart: "Witch, go to sleep, go to sleep. After a while, everyone outside will be killed, and it will be your turn." He only felt that in the seventeen years he had lived, he had never He had never suffered like this before, not even when something happened at home and he became a beggar on the street.
This suffering does not come from the assassination outside, but from the woman in the sedan.
This kind of suffering is not only filled with fear but also deep-seated disgust.
Durian has never hated a person so much, and she was a woman.
"Lian'er, do you also want to go out and practice your skills?" The woman opened her eyes at some point and stared at him playfully, as if she had read through his mind.
Durian shivered involuntarily, sat upright, and said respectfully: "I am willing to protect Master Jiu, even to the death." After saying that, he poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over carefully, "Master Jiu, this is This servant will serve you tea for the last time."
Qin Jiu didn¡¯t take the tea, she just squinted her eyes and looked at the durian quietly.
It is said that she has a habit of squinting when killing people. Words she heard from someone suddenly popped into her mind. Her hands shook slightly, and a chill slowly rose up her spine.
He stared at the eyes opposite him with fear.
The corners of the eyes are slightly fluttered, and the eyelashes are dense and long. When the eyes are slightly narrowed and the eyelashes are raised, it seems to arouse all the charm. There is a bright red tear mole at the corner of the left eye, which adds a touch of sadness to the evil and madness.
"Lian'er is so loyal and admirable. For your words, I am reluctant to let you go out and die!" Qin Jiu said with a half-smile. Her voice is neither clear nor delicate, but rather like a guqin that has been played for a long time, a little dull and low, a little lonely and cold, a little charming and long.
Durian felt relieved, and then realized that his back was covered with sweat. Although he was tricked, his life was temporarily saved. He knew that his martial arts skills were weak and that if he went out, he would die. He didn't want to die, so in order to survive, he had to cater to this witch.
The sound of fighting outside finally stopped, and someone reported outside the sedan: "Master Jiu, all the assassins have been killed!"
Qin Jiu took a sip of tea and said lightly: "In that case, let's go into the city. Today is the Lantern Festival. After entering the city, go straight to Tianmen Street!"
Durian didn¡¯t expect that Qin Jiu was still in the mood to play at this time, and secretly cursed in his heart, "The witch will not die well."
Qin Jiu glanced at the durian and said slowly: "Every year during the Lantern Festival, the imperial court will issue an imperial edict that fireworks can be set off in front of the Qingyun Tower at the end of Tianmen Street after dark. Lijing is the ancient capital of three dynasties and is known as the largest city in Yuncang Continent. Nobles and businessmen from many countries have traveled thousands of miles to gather in Lijing. On a big day like today, you can not only see people from foreign countries with different clothes and shoes, but also BMWs and sheep felts from great countries. The precious gems of the Pan Kingdom, the strange birds and sharp swords of the Ye Kingdom, and if you are lucky, you can also see the beauties of the Yunshao Kingdom.¡±
Durian had never been to Lijing. Hearing that there was so much excitement to see, he immediately cheered up and completely forgot about the fatigue of traveling all the way and the fear of being assassinated just now.
"Jiu Ye, have you ever been to Lijing?" Durian asked curiously.
Qin Jiu lowered her eyelashes and said slowly: "I was here when I was young."
The bearer traveled quickly and finally arrived at Lijing City before dark.
The green cloth sedan went straight from Xuandemen to Lijing, passed Deqingfang, passed through several streets, turned around the East Corner Tower, and arrived at Tianmen Street.
Qin Jiu opened the curtains and stared at the crowds and lanterns outside. Cold wind passes through the seamsAfter pouring in, she subconsciously wrapped her cloak tightly around her body, and was about to lower the curtains when her eyes suddenly focused on a lantern.
"Sedan bearer, stop the sedan!" Qin Jiu said in a manly voice.
When Durian first arrived in Lijing, he was interested in everything. When he saw Qin Jiu getting off the sedan chair, this was exactly what he wanted, so he hurriedly came over to help her get off the sedan chair.
Qin Jiu helped Durian's men get out of the sedan, and walked straight towards the lantern. She had a graceful figure and a bone-deep elegance in her movements. Her pomegranate red cloak stood out among the crowd. The red-billed parrot had already woken up and stopped on Qin Jiu's shoulder, looking around. Durian and the three attendants did not dare to neglect and hurriedly chased after him. Four bearers followed behind carrying the sedan.
On this night, Tianmen Street not only had the most people, but also had the most lanterns, decorating the whole street like a market in the sky.
The fire trees on Dengshan Mountain are gorgeous and blurry, making it feel like a prosperous and prosperous age.
In front of Qin Jiu is a restaurant named "Linglong Pavilion". There are many colored lanterns hanging in front of the building and riddles hanging below.
The lantern Qin Jiu saw was among the other lanterns.
That is a hexagonal lantern. It is not eye-catching at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that it is different from other lanterns. The person who made the lantern obviously put a lot of thought into it. The frame was framed not with paper but with white silk. The paintings on the silk are not printed or dyed, but embroidered.
The six sides of the lantern are all embroidered with bamboo, but each one is different. There are bamboos in the wind, bamboos in the rain, bamboos in the fog, bamboos under the moon, bamboos under the sun, and bamboos covered by frost.
The rain threads in Bamboo in the Rain are made from silk threads woven into white silk. When reflected by the light in the lantern, the looming rain threads appear, and the wetness coming from the pavement is vivid. The dense fog in Bamboo in the Mist is even more clever. It uses various weaving methods to make the entire white silk show different thicknesses. When this difference is illuminated by light, it will reveal different shades of fog.
The artistic conception of each painting is different, and the shape of bamboo is also different. It is hard to imagine that one person can embroider bamboo with so many different charms.
Seeing that Qin Jiu was attracted by the lantern, Durian also took a closer look. When he saw the brocade on the lantern, he couldn't help but widen his eyes. His family had been a wealthy family before, but he had never seen such exquisite brocades and embroideries.
"It's so amazing. This lantern is a treasure. The imperial capital is really a land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. The woman who made this lantern is a strange woman with an exquisite and exquisite mind." Durian couldn't help but marveled.
Qin Jiu sneered and said: "What a strange woman? Go and call the manager over and ask where you got this lantern? Can you take action?"
Seeing Qin Jiu¡¯s gloomy face, Durian guessed that she must be jealous of the woman making lanterns. His mood immediately improved, and he quickly went to find the steward of Linglong Pavilion.
The steward of Linglong Pavilion is a young man. He is watching everyone guessing riddles in front of the building. After listening to Durian's words, he waved his hands regretfully and said: "To tell you the truth, many people want to buy this lantern tonight. But you just brought gold and silver." I can¡¯t sell the mountain either. Except for this bamboo lantern, you can choose anything else you want.¡±
Durian wondered: "Why not sell it?"
The steward lowered his voice and said: "To be honest, this bamboo lantern does not belong to our Linglong Pavilion, but someone left it here. He will come to pick it up soon."
Qin Jiu did not give up and asked with a smile: "I wonder who stored it here? We want to wait. If he comes, we will buy it from him."
The man in charge glanced at Qin Jiu and said with a smile: "I'll tell you the truth, that customer definitely doesn't want to sell. Because he kept the lanterns to please his sweetheart. The lanterns are placed here, and he will bring his sweetheart with him later. Come and buy. So, you better not wait any longer.¡±
Durian knows that some rich men often use extraordinary methods to please the people they like. There are also people who buy their own things at high prices to make their sweetheart smile.
Seeing that Qin Jiu had no intention of leaving, Durian tentatively said, "It doesn't matter if we wait."
The steward pointed forward and whispered: "He's here." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
