I Came From The Mortal World

Chapter 1488: Floating corpse

Views:

In late autumn, the flat and wide Canglong River hides the mountains on both sides of the river, and the scenery is just right.

Especially at this moment, the sunset is late, and the golden afterglow is sprinkled on the densely wooded Hudang Mountain on the left and the red and purple Redwood Ridge on the right. , A total of sinking into the river.

The color of the river water became more and more vivid, as if the color ink was completely dyed, and it was naturally paved.

Wang Laoshi and his wife, Mrs. Zhang, hang out in the Canglong River all day long. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it's just waiting for them to see each other.

The two of them were squatting on the bow of the wide lotus leaf boat that took decades to praise, and they were grooming several black-headed carp. Wang Laoshi flapped his hands, and the brushed scales fluttered, as if it was snowing.

Zhang's hands and feet were also extremely agile, and he cut the two-foot-long carp into several sections neatly.

There is already a faint white air on the roof of the cabin, leaking out through the fine sand holes, exuding a strong aroma of rice and the smell of stewed braised pork.

Suddenly, Zhang oops, dropped the machete that was flying like a flower, and hid in the green-roofed cabin with a bang, shouting "the head of the house" in his mouth, in a panic.

Wang Laoshi was about to scold, when he suddenly noticed a floating corpse floating on the river, slowly approaching his small boat along the river.

Wang Laoshi screamed bad luck, but he didn't know what to do.

He and his wife are well-known in the surrounding area for being good at handling fresh fish, but this time they were hired by a nobleman at a high price, and they went all the way south along the Canglong River to serve some meals with them.

Running into this floating corpse for no reason, the bad intention is second to none, the key is that the nobleman likes cleanliness the most.

With this floating corpse floating in the river, I'm afraid that even today's lunch will be disgusted, and it will have to be cleaned up if it doesn't work out.

Wang Laoshi was anxious when a purple figure suddenly floated down from the painting boat on the right, which was more than ten feet away.

That figure counted lightly on the surface of the river, and lightly jumped onto the boat, she was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl in purple, pretty, with a bun on her head, dressed as a maid.

Wang Laoshi naturally recognized this pretty girl in purple clothes, and knew that she was the nobleman's personal maid.

Turning his mind around, he said to himself: "You can't hide from it. Instead of being discovered by nobles, it's better to admit it yourself."

At that moment, he gritted his teeth, pointed towards the river, told the truth, and asked if today's lunch was still good or not.

Ziyi Qiaobi frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and said: "It's just a floating corpse, which will be indispensable in the Canglong River someday. I just bumped into it, and I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. You don't have to worry about the lady's lunch. The rest wait Go on as usual. Oh, by the way, take some effort to pick up the floating corpse. After lunch, find a place to land on the shore and bury it casually. My lady is kind-hearted, she doesn’t see the bones exposed, and feeds the floating corpse to the fish. .”

Immediately, Wang Laoshi's face was filled with embarrassment.

The purple clothes are pretty and eye-catching, the jade hand waved out, and more than ten spiritual coins fell on the bow of the boat.

Wang Laoshi hurriedly leaned over to pick up the spirit coins, promised in a low voice, scolded Mrs. Zhang viciously, hurriedly went to cook the fish, turned back to the cabin to get the thick and long cable, quickly tied it up, and swished it. , the cable was let go, and the end of the rope accurately caught the floating corpse that was about to be parallel to the boat.

After a while, Wang Laoshi fished the floating corpse onto the boat.

He is timid, always hiding in the cabin, refusing to show his face.

On the contrary, the pretty girl in purple was staring at the floating corpse all the time, the astonishment in her eyes became more and more intense.

Although she was young, she was quite knowledgeable, the clothes of the floating corpse had obviously been soaked in the river water for many days and had gradually become ragged, but the corpse did not have any rotten smell at all.

What's even more strange is that the exposed skin of the floating corpse was as crystal clear as jade, with no long-soaked wrinkles at all.

Suddenly, Wang Laoshi exclaimed, "Ah, this person is not dead yet, he still has temperature, no, he still has a heartbeat, this, this...hell! I have been living in the boat for so many years, and I have seen some of them." The wind and the waves, the dead people in the river saw not one hundred, but eighty, never encountered such a strange thing... "

Zi Yiqiao pondered for a moment and said: "If you are not dead, hang yourself with chicken soup. It is the best way to save your life. It is also a merit for my lady. If you can't save her life, it is God's will. Don't worry, you two, the benefits cannot be separated from you of."

After saying that, with a flash of his figure, he tapped a few times on the surface of the river, turned over and jumped onto the boat.

Ziyi Qiaobi went straight up to the top floor of the painting boat, pushed open a wide arched wooden door full of carved pavilions, and was about to open her mouth, she was stunned.

Then I saw an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl in a green shirt, facing the window and painting, but I saw a small boat left between the sky and the earth fixed on the snow-white cold rice paper in the easel. Xiao Xiao.

As soon as the painting came into my eyes, I saw the desolation and desolation in my eyes, and I couldn't help but stare at the painting for a long time.

And once you look at it for a long time, you will fall into the picture unconsciously, as if standing still on the bow of the small boat hanging between the sky and the earth, looking down at the mountains and rivers, and looking up at the world.

A wonderful painting often has its own artistic conception.

But the picture of the cold autumn and the distant river in front of me, apart from the distant meaning, is vivid and vivid.

The pretty maidservant in purple stood by the door in a daze for a long time, then suddenly, the painter girl who had put away her pen and ink, smiled slightly, "It's not like I haven't seen it before, why bother to lie to me by acting like this."

The sound is like a ring, and the Tsing Yi is picturesque.

The girl in purple woke up suddenly, jumped in, grabbed the girl's arm, and said happily: "Miss's painting skills, no, the painting heart has improved to a higher level. It's really gratifying. These paintings should not lose to anyone in the world. A great painter."

The girl in Tsing Yi laughed and scolded: "You have only studied with me for a few years, yet you dare to criticize everyone in the world casually."

Suddenly, the girl in green noticed that the girl in purple had empty hands, and wondered, "I asked you to fetch lunch, why did you come back empty-handed?"

Ziyi Qiaobi told the truth about her departure, and the girl in Tsing Yi said: "If this is the case, it will be worth it if I don't eat for a few days. Saving someone's life will bring immeasurable merit. You are absolutely right."

Zi Yi said charmingly, "I call it Langui for company and share its fragrance. Miss, please don't praise me, praise me is praise yourself."

While joking with the girl in Tsing Yi, she took out a casserole stove and a set of ingredients from the Sumeru Ring, and started cooking soup in this elegant room.

At this moment, a male voice came through the door, and the girl in Tsing Yi responded and sent the man away.

The girl in purple who was in charge of the fire moved her eyebrows and said happily: "It seems that the eldest son is worthy of being the twin brother of the young lady, and he knows the young lady's thoughts. Now it's all right, Master Jiang's birthday this time is a wonderful opportunity for the young lady .”

The girl in Tsing Yi spat: "What nonsense, what a chance, I don't understand."

Zi Yi smiled and said: "OK, you don't understand, I understand, let me explain to you. The eldest son said that the mobilizer wants us to go to Longtan to meet up, and he made it clear that he wanted you to go to Jiang's birthday together. Everyone knows Jiang The head of the family is very likely to choose a Taoist partner for Second Young Master Jiang at this birthday banquet. Now you can’t just say you don’t understand.”

"If you still don't understand, I don't understand. Who on earth is obsessed with that elegant and martial arts Second Young Master Jiang after the garden poetry meeting that year, even calling him Second Young Master in his dreams. "
