Text Nineteen Road Eight (18)
A new day, a new journey, without Xiang Liushui's company, a lot of precious happiness will be lost on the journey in the future. The gentle breeze strokes Shangquan's long hair. It must have been running hands at that time. She was saying that my hair was not as beautiful as her pink, but the quality of it was fair. Flowing water, are you ready there too? We are going to see Chu Zhengyang, let's go together! Shangquan was waiting alone in front of the house.
The son of Ling finally came out. He seemed reluctant, his face was as flat as an iron. Quan Yufei, who was also wearing a shirt, was followed behind him.
"It's really selfish, and left me alone in the barren mountain and night hill." Quan Yufei said, "Senior Sister Xiao, I also want to go to Donghe Town, Anguo!"
"Ah? Master he—" Shangquan wanted to say something.
"Master, he has agreed!" Yu Fei intercepted Senior Sister's words, "Senior Sister, you can't be so selfish in the future, just ask Senior Brother not to Junior Brother."
"Hehe, no! Okay." Shangquan said, "I really want to thank you. Let's go!"
The three people set off. Riding on the friendly sunshine, they went down to Yashan Ridge, walked through Nanxiao Road without the Zi Nong Yao, caught a glimpse of the deserted southern part of Cangshan Town, and passed the *** floor area at the junction of Anyou Country. Shangquan stopped and glanced at this beautiful wooden building. It was still so gorgeous and so lively that it couldn't stand it anymore. The three of them moved on and entered the territory of Anguo. The three went straight south. On this road, a gentle breeze followed, like a vine of longing, passing through the dense thorns, flowing through the wide rapids, entwining the heart of the walker, lest it fall half a step...
I finally arrived in Donghe Town, but the prosperous Donghe Town is bigger than expected. To find Shangchu Mansion in so many streets, you have to ask the people in the town. People who have asked know who they are but do not know where they are. Finally, someone finally pointed a specific direction. They immediately dropped in!
"Shang Chu Mansion!" Quan Yufei said, "I finally found it!"
Shangquan finally breathed a sigh of relief. It's a big green brick and red tile wall, and you can't see the roof of the house inside. The iron lion had a pair of steel rings in his mouth, leaning against the large vermilion wooden door. They glowed with cold steel under the golden plaque of "Shang Chu Mansion", revealing certain inviolable rights. One brick and one tile, one dust and one gas, are the elegance of the nobles, the gorgeousness of the nobles, and the unparalleledness of the nobles. At the same time it implies that they are solemn and inviolable. Shangquan didn't care about anything, she directly knocked on the vermilion and tall door.
The door opened, and a soldier opened the door: "You...who?"
"I..." Shangquan was a little nervous, "I'm looking for Chu Zhengyang!"
"I ask who are you?" The soldier had a green face like an iron lion on the door.
Shangquan replied: "I, I am... Chu Zhengyang's friend." I lied, my face is so hot.
"Oh, the eldest son is not here. Come back in a few days." The soldier replied.
"What, where did you go? When will you return?" Shang Quan asked worriedly.
"About three days later." The soldier replied, "If necessary, I can leave a message for you!"
"Thank you, I will wait for him here." Shang Quan was a little disappointed, but decided to see Chu Zhengyang.
The three of them found a hotel nearby to settle down. Shangquan's heart couldn't calm down. She went downstairs and strolled alone on a street in Donghe Town. A street here is full of clothes and jewelry, colorful, very beautiful. But Shangquan had no intention of looking at these things. She just wanted to walk quietly by herself and learn about all aspects of the world, especially the various aspects of people's lives. She was attracted by the things under her feet as she walked. When I picked it up, I saw a purple petal. There was a lot of people, but no one stepped on it and hurt it. It is both small and powerful. Who left it here? Where does it live? Do you miss your family and friends? Shangquan thought of himself, who abandoned me in Shangquanhe? Did my biological parents miss me? So what kind of home should I have? Brother, where are you? Do you still miss me? … A cold wind hits, it's so cold! Shangquan wrapped his clothes tightly and hurried back.
Shangquan returned to the hotel and ran into Ling Zhizi and Quan Yufei eating at the dining table on the first floor.
"Sister Xiao, what did you do?" Yu Fei said, "If we can't wait for you for a long time, we won't wait."
"I'm out shopping." Shangquan replied, "Didn't you have dinner? Haha, you have to eat, don't wait for me!"
Quan Yufei said: "Senior Sister looks tired, so let's quench your thirst with a drink." He handed Senior Sister a glass of water.
I was a little tired and thirsty, Shangquan took a sip while raising his cup. "Ah -" So spicy, so choking! "Ahem-why is white wine?" She was blushing, "I only drink beer, not white wine. Ahem..."
Yu Fei quickly poured another cup of tea for Senior Sister. Saying: "I'm sorry. But I didn't expect that the senior sister would not be able to drink white wine at such an age. Oh, yes, leather wine? What kind of wine made from animal skins?"
Shangquan cleared his throat: "It's not wine, it's beer. Ah, I can't explain it to you."
Yu Fei replied, "Sister Sister, then, sit down and eat. Tonight is my birthday!"
"What? Today is your birthday?" Shangquan was taken aback, "Why didn't you say it earlier? Haha, happy birthday!"
"Thank you. But birthday is not important, mainly because I am 15 years old this time, and I am an adult today!" Quan Yufei proudly said.
"I'll be an adult at 15?" Shangquan said, "Our place is 18 years old." Shangquan smiled as he looked at Senior Brother Ling who was drinking without a word, "Dare to ask Senior Brother Ling how old is this year." "
Ling’s son put down the cup and said, "I'm an adult!"
"Brother Ling is 23 this year." Yufei answered with help.
"Oh!" Shangquan replied, "That seems to be an old man!" As soon as she finished her voice, she put down her brother and her eyes and locked herself tightly. One serious, one shocked. Oh my god, it looks like it was in trouble. But... But did I say something wrong? This, this, this is just a joke. God, their expressions are so scary. Huh? Why did Junior Brother's face slowly start to turn red? Also secretly observe the face of the senior. What did I say wrong
Finally, the son of Ling stood up and said, "Huh, who do you think you are?" He walked away.
Shangquan trembled with fear. She looked at the face of her younger brother, and said carefully: "I'm sorry, I'm just joking. I really didn't mean anything else. I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
Yu Fei breathed a sigh of relief and said, “I’m nothing, it’s just brother—senior sister. If you have this kind of thought in the future, you can tell me in private, and I promise not to talk to others. There is really no need to attack the brother. , He grew up as an orphan, and it's quite miserable!"
"Oh." Shangquan nodded and asked again, "What do you think? What did I say wrong?"
Yu Fei replied: "Don’t you know that Senior Sister? If a woman calls a person a'man', it means that she will never marry this person even if she dies. Senior Sister not only said that she would never marry a senior, but also Brother Pi, no one will marry! Years old, in fact, they are still very young!"
"Huh?" Shangquan was surprised, "Why is there such a saying? I heard it for the first time. But... But I just, I, I didn't mean that. I just saw his boss face aside I didn’t speak, so I made a joke, made him laugh, and I didn’t expect it—oh, what should I do? He must be so angry that he can't sleep now..." Shangquan slapped on the table and grabbed his head: "How can I apologize? Oh, how did things develop like this? Need to comfort him? But... But what should I say?..."
...
Three days later, Xiao Shangquan and others reappeared under the Shang Chu Mansion. The soldier who opened the door said: "You can give me a name."
Shangquan replied: "I am a friend of Xiang Liushui, and Chu Zhengyang knows Xiang Liushui."
"Wait a minute." The soldier closed the door to report, and ran out after a while, "What are you talking about? The eldest son never knew Xiang Liushui, so he quickly retreated, otherwise I would be called the guard."
What? How could this be? Shangquan was taken aback: "No. They know each other, and they talked about it five years ago."
The soldier smiled contemptuously: "There are so many people who have talked to the eldest son, let alone five years ago, I didn't remember it, you guys go back!"
"No." Shangquan held up the door that the soldiers were about to close, "Please let me see it. Just one side is enough."
"What are you doing? Don't toast or eat fine wine!" The soldier drew the sword from his waist and threatened.
"I beg you, just one side, just one side!" Shangquan didn't want to give up anything.
Seeing that the other party didn't let go, the soldier raised his sword to cut.
"Stop." Ling Zhizi blocked the soldier's attack with a sword, "I said, you are too courageous, you dare to hurt people casually."
"You..." the soldier said angrily, "You have to break into the official mansion, it seems that you are bold."
"Who is making noise outside?" An old man's voice came from inside.
When the soldier saw him, he let out the old man: "Manager Xue, these people are clamoring to see the eldest son."
The old man has gray hair, and his short stature exudes the shrewd temperament of a housekeeper. The sensitive eyes swept across the group of people at the fastest speed. Language: "Sorry, everyone. The eldest son has ordered, and recently no one has been seen."
"How can he see me?" Shangquan said, "I don't want what I want. I just want to hand him something and say something. I will leave after doing this."
Manager Xue replied: "It depends on the feelings of the eldest son. You should come back later, and I will relay the request for you. In addition, leave your name."
"My name is Xiao Shangquan."
"Xiao Shangquan? Okay, remember. Please go back, everyone." Manager Xue tried his best to be polite.
Seems to be really impossible to see. What to do? Go back? After walking such a long way, I'm really unwilling to go back like this. Shangquan turned and walked back aimlessly.
"Sister, do you have any plans?" Yu Fei asked from behind.
Shangquan thought for a while and replied: "I decided to wait another day."
Ling Zhizi said: "In fact, there is another place to see Chu Zhengyang."
"Where?" the two asked at the same time.
The son of Ling pointed to the building next to him: "Keep it here, you will be there until he comes."
Shangquan and Yufei turned their heads and looked at them: "Drunk Wind House?" "A brothel again?" Shangquan asked in surprise.
The son of Ling replied: "Snowflake Fei Chu Zhengyang is a famous romantic and suave, and he should be here."
I really don’t understand how Xiang Liushui could fall in love with Chu Zhengyang, and Shangquan was depressed: "But this is a brothel, why should I be ashamed to stay here? Why... You two help me guard."
"I'm only responsible for your safety, and I don't care about the rest." Ling Zhizi started back to the hotel as soon as his voice fell.
Seeing Senior Sister looking at him, Yu Fei hurriedly shook his hand: "I can't destroy my innocent reputation. Senior Sister, if you need any other help, just ask me when you return to the hotel." After he finished speaking, he hurriedly followed the senior Steps.
Oops, the two are really true! Shangquan stomped his feet, really wondering what kind of immortal Chu Zhengyang was. It's such a rare sight. Shangquan looked around helplessly, and a piece of purple was printed in her eyes again. She walked over and picked up the purple petal, which was the petal she saw that night. Ok? There is still ahead! She walked over to find these fragmentary petals spilled all the way. She picked them up one by one and found them on the way.
Shangquan kept walking like this until she entered a small village, passed through the village, and came to a yard slightly far from the village. The walls of the courtyard in this world are so high that it is impossible to see the house inside. The trail of petals passes through the vacant courtyard door. Shangquan carefully pushes open the wooden door, and the scenery in front of her really makes her intoxicated.
The whole courtyard was clustered with shades of purple. Here, in a pile, there, in a few water tanks with clear water, there were also a few pieces of light purple floating. There was a curving path in the eye-filled purple, leading to the deep house. Shangquan touched it, and there was a big tree at the corner, and the momentum of supporting the sky was daunting. Two long vines hang down from a thick branch, and the vines are like snakes entwined with purple flowers. They were shaking, shaking gently, shaking the girl with the purple skirt underneath. The delicate face, purple headdress, and swaying skirts, flirting with the passion of the spring breeze. No distinction between people and flowers, no debate about sceneries and paintings, everything seems like a fairy dream!
But, isn’t this purple flower the same as the one used to be? !
The purple yarn girl saw the uninvited guests. She still leaned on the swing calmly: "You are?"
"Ah... hello!" Shangquan hurriedly replied politely, "I came along the purple petals, ah, they and here are really beautiful." Shangquan said while observing the girl, only to find out. , The girl's body is still falling petals from time to time, and a lot of purple has been accumulated under the swing, and they overflowing far. Is there really a legendary flower god? Oh, that black and purple hair is flying in the wind...
The purple yarn girl smiled through the picturesque scene: "They have been here for a long time. They are my closest relatives and the people who support me to be a king. Beauty and loyalty are their essence. Although there is evil. Their names. But they are just. In this small purple alley, they glow with all the charm of a demon."
"They are called Zi Nong Yao?" Shang Quan asked.
The girl raised her eyelids and said, "There are not many people who know about the purple demon." She got off the swing, scattered with purple petals, approached Shangquan, and asked, "How did you know?"
Shangquan replied: "Quan Yufei told me. If there is nothing wrong, you have saved the attitude brother Quan Xiaofei, and you also gave him the flower seeds of Zi Nong Yao."
The girl thought for a moment, and said: "I don't remember, but it should be me, because I am the only one in this world who owns these flowers. Are you thirsty? Do you want to go in for a glass of water." The girl pointed. Point to the house on one side.
"Okay. Thank you!" Shangquan followed the girl, she introduced as she walked, "My name is Xiao Shangquan, how about you?"
The girl laughed again: "You can call me Zi Nong Yao. As for the real name, it doesn't make much sense to introduce you. After all, you are just a passerby." She said that she had already entered the room, and the girl handed the guests a glass of water: "Please drink. Let’s make a demon bubble with purple. Clear heat and detoxify, slimming and beautifying!"
It's really a 21st century advertisement, and it sounds seductive enough. Shangquan took the cup and took a sip. Wow, it was refreshing. "Thank you, it's delicious!" Shang Quan licked his mouth.
"Master Fengxin!" A small official came in, and he reported, "Master Fengxin, the rockery you want may not be able to move over in the near future!"
"Huh?" The purple-clothed girl turned her head and stared at the little official, "I said that tomorrow is the deadline."
There was a cold sweat on the Xiaoguan’s forehead, and he lowered his head and turned back: "But... But I can’t move it tomorrow. It will be a few days later. We have already used the most advanced means of transportation, and we will be as soon as possible—"
"Then why did you agree to Lord Ben?!" The purple-clothed girl is the so-called Lord Fengxin.
"This... this... could have been possible, but the porter was delayed on the road—"
"Don't say it!" Fengxin stopped small officials. She raised her delicate hands, and a sprig of Purple Nong Yao fell into the hands of officials.
Shangquan looked at the officer holding the purple thorny demon with a long stem full of small thorns. He was trembling with fear. She doesn't understand what Master Fengxin wants to do.
Feng Xin's face was surprisingly calm, and she turned her back to the officer. Everything is so quiet, with a tense atmosphere. Suddenly, the small thorns on the Zi Nong Yao turned into cone-shaped steel needles in an instant. They slammed into the palms of the officials, nailed out scarlet blood, spilled through the fingers of the officials, and dripped into the ground. On the demon, that seemed to be the triumphant smile of those flowers.
"Huh?!" Shangquan exclaimed. No, you can't call. She sealed her mouth, afraid of offending the adult in front of her.
The officer endured the pain, and squeezed a few words from his teeth: "I'm sorry, Master Fengxin!"
"Retreat!" Fengxin still turned his back.
"Yes!" The official post immediately retreated. **
