The sound of the piano paused suddenly at a very high pitch and then fell silent.
"What do you think, Young Master Yang?" Qin Mingyue stood up and looked at the person with her beautiful eyes.
A figure dressed in plain white appeared in front of Yang Zhen in the pine forest. Her long snow-covered skirt swayed gently in the wind, and the green gauze draped behind her back fluttered gently, like a fairy who could ride the wind and fly away at any time.
"The eldest princess's piano skills are indeed wonderful. After the first song, Yang just felt like it was a dream," Yang Zhen clapped her hands and praised: "Fortunately, the eldest princess's Yao Qin was returned. Otherwise, if it was left at my place, it would be a waste of natural resources."
As the relationship between the two gradually improved, the storage ring that was once a trophy was returned to Qin Mingyue two days ago.
Qin Mingyue smiled sweetly: "I haven't seen you for a long time. I wonder if Mr. Yang fell in love with the little girl at first sight?"
Yang Zhen pondered for a moment, spread her hands and said with a smile: "If it is there, if it is not, it is like the sound of a piano reverberating in the pine forest, never leaving the left and right, but also seeming to leave and stay."
Qin Mingyue covered her mouth and smiled, and said angrily: "I am the same way."
With such a joke, the unfamiliarity caused by the brief separation between the two disappeared, and they suddenly became more friendly.
"Keep walking?" Yang Zhen suggested.
"Okay!" Qin Mingyue said cheerfully: "Let's go to the town the day before yesterday."
…
The two of them changed their appearance slightly this time. Yang Zhen had an extra beard, like a businessman doing small business; Qin Mingyue wrapped a handkerchief on her head and flicked her jade finger on her face, she had changed. She became a charming woman in her early thirties.
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
They came to the busiest market in Anping Town and looked around, but they saw a lot of people, hawkers and shouts coming and going, it was very lively.
The two walked around and took a look, stopping from time to time to buy two pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus cold cake, eat a steaming bowl of beef rice noodles, and bargain with the vendors for three or two copper coins. They were immersed in the mundane world and had a great time.
Yang Zhen was in a trance and returned to the scene of shopping with Ban Hua in her previous life, the green years when she fell in love with someone but didn't know how to express it.
This feeling reached its extreme when Qin Mingyue bit into a berry.
The peel burst, and the dark red juice splashed on the woman's plump and plump lips, with beautiful lines. A small red tongue stuck out of the lips and carefully licked the remaining juice on the lips.
Yang Zhen's heart skipped a beat. That summer evening, when the class flower tasted the ice cream, she looked so cute and charming.
It's a pity that I was young at that time, so I just watched stupidly and didn't dare to say anything.
If it were now——
Yang Zhen stretched out her hands suddenly, held the woman's cheeks, and kissed her fiercely on the lips.
A woman's lips are sweet, fragrant, and intoxicating...
Qin Mingyue's delicate body was stiff, her eyes were wide open, and she was at a loss.
The air solidified at this moment...
"Pah!" A slap hit the man's face. Qin Mingyue blushed and turned around to leave.
Yang Zhen touched her hot cheek mockingly, ignoring the laughter of the people around her, and immediately chased after him.
Qin Mingyue walked in a hurry and didn't stop until she reached the lakeside the day before yesterday, her shoulders shaking constantly.
The sound of man's footsteps sounded behind him.
"I'm sorry..." The same words sounded at the same time, and both of them were startled.
Yang Zhen smiled and walked over to wipe the tears from the corners of the woman's eyes. Qin Mingyue did not dodge and let his fingers slide across her cheeks.
"I was...a little confused just now, actually..." she explained hesitantly.
"I was impulsive." Yang Zhen smiled.
"No, it's not, it's my own fault." Qin Mingyue insisted.
"I have never liked someone, and I don't know what love is. What you did just now, I think, is like you, but I'm not used to it. It seems like someone wants to be above me and control me. , changed my life, and made me want to resist..."
"We have already had skin-to-skin contact, and we have tried the most intimate actions between Taoist couples. However, when you rushed over to kiss me, I still felt so sudden. My heart is still a pool of still water, I'm not ready yet to like a man, to get used to him holding me in his arms, kissing me, and loving me properly..."
"Did you know? After you left in the morning, I took a nap and had a dream. The scene in the dream was that you were caught by me in Panxi Mountain and your body was burned by blue flames..."
"Your face is full of ferocity, you are struggling in pain, and you are roaring. You are staring at me viciously, and your eyes are like a sharp blade, as if you want to tear me to pieces, crush me to ashes..."
"I can't forget that look. You are so fierce. I am so scared, very, very scared." Qin Mingyue burst into tears, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably:
"I'm very scared. I'm afraid that all the intimate actions we have now are actually illusions. Even this world is not real. The you now are not the same person as the you in Panshan Mountain. The good things you do to me now are all It is a false love and a dream. One day, this illusion will disappear like ice and snow under the sun. At that time, I will also die..."
Qin Mingyue babbled, fear written on her charming face. At this moment, she was no longer the heroic eldest princess, but a little girl, a weak little woman.
Yang Zhen was greatly moved. She gently held the woman in her arms and comforted her in a low voice:
"Silly girl, I didn't care about Panxi Mountain for a long time. At that time..."
He wanted to say that the hatred that was unforgettable at that time was long gone now, it was just a smile when they met.
But, is that really the case?
Does he really not care at all?
That encounter was the closest he came to death. At that time, Qingyan was less than half an inch away from his heart. If Yiyi hadn't woken up in time, it would have been almost impossible for him to survive.
Can you really pretend that such a near-death experience never happened?
Can he really open up to Qin Mingyue and hold nothing back?
Could it be that in his heart, he wasn't worried at all about this woman's decisiveness, ruthlessness, and ambition, and didn't take any precautions at all?
Yang Zhen couldn't find the answer. Even oneself may not be able to see clearly a person's heart.
Unless it's a matter of life and death.
…
At this moment, there was a noise from the other side of the town, and a large group of people could be faintly seen gathering together.
"Go and have a look?" Yang Zhen held the woman's jade wrist.
Qin Mingyue shrank her fingers slightly, quickly calmed down her emotions, and nodded obediently: "Yes."
When the two returned to the town, they saw a man and a woman tied up with ropes, stumbling towards the center of the town, pushed by several villagers.
Hundreds of people were noisily following behind.
Yang Zhen looked carefully and saw that the man was in his twenties and had a dark complexion, but he had a dignified appearance, with a square face, a broad forehead, and a tall build. The woman has fair skin, is around 20 years old, has a slender head and eyebrows, and is quite pretty.
Both of them were mortals. Yang Zhen had no impression of the man, but the woman looked familiar. She seemed to be the concubine of a foundation-building monk. Looking at the direction they were going, they saw that it was not the town's yamen, but the deacon's hall that was responsible for handling the affairs of immortal cultivators.
Yang Zhen frowned slightly. Since this matter was related to the immortal cultivators, he had some inferences about the whole story.
Soon, the chatter nearby confirmed his guess.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a beautiful woman, she doesn't enjoy all the blessings, but she insists on hooking up with a poor boy, she must be committing a crime now!"
"What do you know? They were childhood sweethearts! If those monsters hadn't threatened her parents, how could she marry an immortal?"
"Oh, now that there is no threat from monsters, can she not be a woman and have a lover in private? I think she is just wanton, despicable and slutty!"
"You... Bah! My back hurts when I stand and talk. I'm too lazy to argue with people like you!"
"..."
Amidst the commotion, people flowed into the Deacon Hall.
Yang Zhen raised her eyes and saw that it was Pei Jian who was on duty in the Deacon Hall today.
Standing next to him was a middle-aged Taoist priest with a sinking face. Yang Zhen recognized that his surname was Zhang Quren. He was a late-stage practitioner of foundation building. He was the nominal husband of the woman.
He took Qin Mingyue and found a good position outside the fence, ready to see how Deacon Pei would try the case.
PS: The subsequent trial process is related to Qin Mingyue’s change of mentality. I feel that the writing is not very good and needs to be polished.
I will post these today, and tomorrow I will use a big chapter (should be more than 4,000 words) to end this plot and enter the final plot.
