Liang Ziqi returned to Qi Song's room with a strange look on her face.
"Qiqi, you're back. Why have you been gone for so long?" Qi Song asked Liang Ziqi with concern.
"Well, my stomach feels a little uncomfortable." Liang Ziqi rubbed her belly awkwardly.
"Ah, are you sick? Do you want to take medicine?" Qi Song stood up in a hurry.
Qi Ya and Maria also care about Liang Ziqi.
"Is Qiqi sick?"
"Do you want to see a doctor?"
Liang Ziqi waved her hand in panic, held Qi Song in hand, and reassured the others, "No, no need, I'm comfortable now."
Seeing Liang Ziqi express that she was indeed fine, the others gradually felt relieved.
Then Maria pulled Liang Ziqi to sit down, "Qiqi, come and see, this is Sister Xiaosong's tea pet, and this is Yaya's tea pet."
"Yes." Liang Ziqi just responded softly, and then glanced at Qi Song from time to time, feeling a little absent-minded.
Qi Ya continued to teach Maria how to wash tea pets with tea.
Placed on the tea tray are two tea pets, both of which look like cute and naive Pi Xiu.
It was the first time for Maria to see this kind of item that was very characteristic of District 1, and she found it very interesting.
Qi Ya's family is in the tea business, and there is no shortage of tea-related items in Qi Ya's family.
Liang Ziqi, who often comes to Qi Ya's house, naturally knows something about tea pets. Liang Ziqi has also seen the tea pets of sisters Qi Song and Qi Ya.
Tea pets refer to pets nourished by tea. They are mostly ceramic crafts made of purple sand or pure mud. Different tea pets have different meanings. Some symbolize wealth and treasures, contentment and happiness, and some symbolize happiness and good fortune.
Common tea pets include golden toads, small animals, brave animals, people, etc.
Qi's father has a lot of various tea pets that he has collected, which are placed in the cabinet like figurines.
Liang Ziqi was also given a tea pet that looked like a crab, which symbolized wisdom and courage and symbolized good luck.
Just because Liang Ziqi doesn't drink much tea, the tea pet is now regarded as an ordinary decoration and placed on her bedside. Liang Ziqi will only wash it with tea occasionally.
The two tea pets placed on the tea tray are tea pets that Qi Song and Qi Ya have raised since they were young. They have been washing them with tea for many years. For both of them, it has special meaning.
Perhaps it's because they are sisters, and their tea pets are both Pixiu. The chubby Pixiu looks very cute.
From the appearance of the tea pet, it can be seen that the Pixiu belonging to Qi Song is older, very round, gentle and pleasant.
"Dad said that my tea pet was left to me by my mother. After Xiaoya was born, my father imitated my tea pet and found someone to make a similar tea pet for Xiaoya." Qi Song introduced to Maria. .
Hearing Qi Song's words, Liang Ziqi's eyes rippled, causing Liang Ziqi to look at Qi Song's tea pet.
'If I remember correctly, those items tied with red strings were probably those that Sister Xiaosong's mother brought her into contact with...'
At this glance, Liang Ziqi suddenly discovered that Qi Song's tea pet actually gave people a sense of agility.
It’s as if spiritual energy is really generated!
'Why haven't you discovered it before? By the way, I used to be just an ordinary person! '
Liang Ziqi's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Qi Song's tea pet, as if she wanted to see what was going on with Qi Song's tea pet.
Maria also looked at the two Pixiu and noticed the beauty, "Huh? But why does Sister Xiaosong's tea pet have two horns and Xiaoya's tea pet has one horn?"
If you look closely, you will find that although the two Pixiu are similar, the horns on their heads are different.
"Oh, I understand! It's because Sister Xiaosong is the eldest sister, so the tea pet has one horn on its head, and Xiaoya is the second sister, so the tea pet has two horns on its head!" Maria struck her hand and said Made his own judgment.
Qi Ya put down the teapot and complained speechlessly: "Of course it's not for such a casual reason!"
Maria was a little confused.
"Actually, what Martha said is not unreasonable. After all, my father might have thought that simple at the time." Qi Song smiled slightly. Now that she was familiar with Maria, she dared to say more, "However, In the culture of Zone 1, there is a difference between a Pixiu with one horn and a Pixiu with two horns."
"I'm very curious!" Maria opened her eyes wide.
Seeing that he could show off his knowledge, Qi Song immediately became energetic, even though he was just showing off to a little girl.
Qi Song said: "Pixiu was a very ferocious auspicious animal in ancient times, with one or two horns. One horn is called 'Tianlu', which means blessings from heaven, and it specializes in protecting treasures. The two horns are called 'warping evil', which means It can ward off evil spirits, so that evil spirits and beasts in the world will not dare to attack."
As he spoke, Qi Song raised his hand and rubbed Qi Ya's little head, and said with a smile, "When Xiaoya was little, she often cried for unknown reasons. No matter how she coaxed her, it didn't work. When she went to the hospital for a checkup, it was not an illness. Yes. Relatives and friends said that Xiaoya was disturbed by ghosts and ghosts. His father may have done the warding off for Xiaoya in the hope that he could ward off evil spirits and allow Xiaoya to grow up healthily."
"Sure enough, Xiaoya stopped crying later."
Maria's eyes suddenly became profound when she looked at Qi Ya.
'Oh, it turns out that Xiaoya was a crybaby when she was little! '
Qi Ya's face turned slightly red and she was a little ashamed when her sister told her embarrassing things about how she often cried when she was a child.
Qi Ya quickly looked at Liang Ziqi and found that Liang Ziqi was a little distracted, as if she didn't hear what she just said clearly, so Qi Ya couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Isn't it normal for children to cry all the time when they are young? Xiaofeng always cries too!" Qi Ya said harshly.
Xiaofeng is Qi Song and Qi Ya's youngest brother Qi Feng, who is still a baby.
Qi Ya remembers clearly that when she was at home, Qi Feng would always cry loudly for unknown reasons, making it difficult for Qi's father and Qi's mother to rest.
When the couple went out, they had to take Qi Feng with them because they were worried about Qi Feng.
Fortunately, Qi's father and Qi's mother have taken care of Qi Ya and have experience. It is not completely unacceptable to take care of Qi Feng again.
People have to sigh with emotion, Qi Ya and Qi Feng are truly siblings.
Liang Ziqi also thought of Qi Ya's parents, and her mood became more complicated.
'Do uncle and aunt know about the beast trapped in the sky? If they knew, could it be that they really killed Sister Xiao Song in exchange for their own wealth? If they didn't know, who would want to harm Sister Xiao Song? '
'Could it be Sister Xiaosong's mother? Why would she do this? '
All the strange things that are happening now are inextricably linked to Qi Song's biological mother.
In fact, Liang Ziqi and Ning Bai had already talked about and discussed these speculations.
Neither Ning Bai nor the guardian spirit girl had any thoughts.
However, Zhao Yanan had a sudden idea that Qi Song's mother might have loved Qi Song's father very much, so she sacrificed her daughter to bring wealth to Qi Song's father.
These love-minded remarks and developments are quite explosive.
Ning Bai suspected that Zhao Yanan was a love brain on the spot, but Zhao Yanan strongly rejected it.
Zhao Yanan said that it was just because she had read too many mindless romance novels recently and her brain was a little hard to use.
However, what is certain is that Qi Song's biological mother is definitely extraordinary.
Possibly a powerful practitioner capable of performing rituals.
This string beast trapped in the sky is not powerful enough, and ordinary practitioners cannot deploy it.
In Liang Ziqi's mind, she recalled the final warning to her from her guardian spirit girl master.
Guardian Spirit Girl: "This ritual is neither pure nor simple. It may be mixed with other things to make the ritual more sinister. That special letter is a reminder left by the person who arranged the ritual. It is more likely to be The core of the operation of the adding link in the ceremony. The moment the letter is taken out, the special arrangements made by the decorator in the ceremony may have already begun to operate!"
"You must now return to your friends as soon as possible. You must stay together. You must not be separated, and do not leave the scope of the ceremony. Otherwise, the ceremony will be stimulated. Not only will you not be able to leave the scope of the ceremony, it will also speed up the initiation of the ceremony. . Then protect yourself, your brother Ningbai and sister Yanan and I will rush over right away."
"If the situation changes and danger appears during the ceremony, nothing can be done..."
"Abandon your little sister Song and leave with the others. Only one person can be saved."
"You are not a god and can't save everyone, so don't be brave!"
Liang Ziqi's eyelashes fluttered, her hands under the table clenched into fists, and her fingers were pinched until they turned white.
Zhou Meimei could only stretch out one hand and gently placed it on the back of Liang Ziqi's hand to express comfort.
'I don't want to see anything happen to Sister Xiao Song! And absolutely don’t want Xiaoya and Masha to be harmed! '
Liang Ziqi has her own stubbornness.
Qi Song, Qi Ya and Maria seemed not to notice anything, they were still chatting about the tea pet.
"The ancients would place a pair of Tianlu in front of the tomb, not only to pray for the protection of the temple and the eternal peace of the house, but also as a mount for immortality, which entrusted the ancient people with a good wish to ward off evil spirits, eliminate disasters, and welcome good fortune. "Qi Song showed off to Maria.
"However, the same image has different symbolic meanings in different locations, so Tianlu also has a good meaning as a tea pet."
Maria nodded in understanding.
