"ah!"
Only then did Qingjiu notice a person standing at the entrance of the alley. His sudden appearance frightened the person so much that he almost fell down.
Qingjiu, on the other hand, reacted very quickly and reached out his hand to grab the man.
"Is the girl okay?" Qingjiu put his arms around the man's waist, helped her upright, then lowered his eyes and said to her.
She was a girl with a delicate face and a look of sadness in her eyebrows. She looked very gentle and lovely at first glance. Her aqua blue clothes made her look like the cold moon in the sky.
"It doesn't matter, I'm fine." The woman shook her head slightly at Qingjiu, then moved slightly, and Qingjiu realized and let go.
【It smells so good...】
Wan Hanxiu, who was standing nearby, felt his heart skip a beat, acknowledging that Qingjiu was about to start talking dirty again.
Only then did Qingjiu realize that there was a stall selling rouge and gouache on the right side of their alley. He thought the woman was stopping to take a look.
The woman supported the green wine, then turned and left. Not long after, a maid came up to greet her.
Qingjiu looked at her back, and his eyes slowly moved down to the woman's feet.
"The scent of blue star flowers..."
She lowered her eyes and looked at the ground where the woman walked, and saw that every step she took left a smell of filth. Others couldn't see it, but they could see it clearly, and she could smell the green wine on her body, rich and strong. The smell of blue star flowers.
If I remember correctly, there are also large blue star flowers planted in the city lord's mansion.
"Is Blue Star Flower very popular?"
Qingjiu looked away and looked sideways at Liu Yi beside him and asked.
"The Blue Star Flower is not very rare, but it is a bit expensive, but it is generally liked by noble ladies. It can be regarded as the city flower of Yuncheng."
Seeing Qingjiu mention Blue Star Flower, Liu Yi, although he didn't quite understand, still answered truthfully.
"Last year we also held a Hundred Flowers Festival, will it be the same this year?"
Hearing Liu Yi's words, Qingjiu's eyes moved, and then he asked again.
"Yes, this year's Hundred Flowers Festival will be in three days. Anyone who is interested in the flowers or seeds left from the Flower Festival will also take them back."
Qingjiu stopped talking, light appeared in his dark star eyes, and he nodded thoughtfully.
"Let's go."
After Qingjiu left a final sentence, he walked out of the alley and walked towards Liu Yi's home.
"Was it Second Senior Brother Yin Xingyu just now?"
Wan Hanxiu asked softly while walking next to Qingjiu.
"???Do you have eyes on your head?"
[Yin Xingyu is standing there with that naughty face, you ask me, is he Yin Xingyu? 】
[Are you okay? Are you okay? 】
[If you ask questions like this knowingly, please don’t ask them again in the future, okay? 】
"..."
Wan Hanxiu felt that it was unnecessary for him to ask this question.
[Why did Yin Xingyu come back to Yuncheng? With his extremely clear IQ, it seems impossible that he discovered something was wrong here. 】
[Even if we send someone to investigate, we won’t send this useless Yin Xingyu. 】
I thought about it for a while, but didn't understand why Jiqing came here at this time.
[Could it be that you are here to participate in the Hundred Flowers Festival? Tsk...it kind of suits Yan Qing's interests. 】
[I can’t guess, I can’t guess what everyone in Jiqing is thinking. 】
It started again, and Wan Hanxiu sighed helplessly in his heart.
And at the restaurant next to the alley where she was after Qingjiu left, Yin Xingyu lowered his eyes and looked down. The color of his delicate and flawless face changed again and again.
Well done, you really show no mercy, little junior sister...
"Second senior brother!"
"continue."
The disciple next to him looked at his second senior brother's face and looked at him with some worry. Yin Xingyu retracted his emotion and left a cold sentence, then turned and left.
It was already dark after Qingjiu and his party returned to Liu Yi's residence.
Night came as promised.
The heat of the summer night enveloped the earth, the bright moon was in the sky, and the sparse stars were hidden in the boundless night.
"Isn't Qingjiu girl still asleep?"
When Liu Yi got up at night, he walked to the door and saw Qingjiu sitting on the small bench at the door, and asked with some surprise.
"Waiting for someone."
Qingjiu said softly without changing his expression.
"Waiting for someone?"
Liu Yi was obviously a little confused about Qingjiu's words, but how people like Qingjiu did things was something mortals like them could not guess.
"Miss Qingjiu, can I ask you something?"
After standing next to Qingjiu for a while, Liu Yi held his legs and slowly sat down on the floor next to Qingjiu.
"Um!"
Qingjiu closed her eyes and replied to Liu Yi lazily with a nasal voice.
"When you saw me yesterday, you told me that my physique after becoming possessed was different from before..."
Thinking about Qingjiu's words yesterday, Liu Yi hesitated for a while before asking.
"It's what you think. Your previous physique was not suitable for the path of cultivating immortals. But because you self-destructed your soul after becoming a demon, I used some means to retain your consciousness and used Gu Zhixu's magic weapon to warm it. It’s been cultivating for a while, so now you have spiritual roots.”
The unhurried, tepid voice spread slowly in the quiet night, and each word fell on Liu Yi's ears.
"Miss Qingjiu, do you mean that I can become an immortal now?" Liu Yi asked in a daze.
"You don't feel it? You should be more resistant to beatings than before."
"..."
Shouldn't he ask?
"That……"
"coming."
Just when Liu Yi was about to speak, Qingjiu's cold voice suddenly sounded.
Liu Yi followed Qingjiu's gaze towards his dilapidated door. He didn't know why he suddenly felt nervous, as if something was about to happen.
"Knock knock knock."
The old wooden door rang, and Liu Yi stood up with some difficulty to open the door.
"Yao'er?"
When he saw the faceless figure wearing a cloak under the moon, Liu Yi recognized the person in front of him.
He spoke in astonishment.
"I'm looking for a girl."
Lan Zhiyao did not answer Liu Yi, but looked past Liu Yi and saw Qingjiu sitting in the courtyard.
"Ms. Lan, come in."
Looking at the person looking at him, Qingjiu said lightly.
Lan Zhiyao nodded to Liu Yi, and after walking closer to the yard, he took off the bamboo hat on his head.
"What's going on with Lian'er? Is everything she said true?"
After walking into the courtyard again, Lan Zhiyao walked directly to Qingjiu and said with an angry look in his eyes and a stiff tone.
"That's your person, why do you need to ask me?" Qingjiu replied with a nonchalant eyebrow.
Lan Zhiyao took a staggering step back, her mind filled with Lian'er's pitiful figure.
"What's wrong with Yao'er? What happened?" Liu Yi walked to her side and wanted to hold her up, but felt it was inappropriate. In the end, he could only grab her skirt to prevent her from falling, and asked worriedly.
"Lian'er is dead. Xiao Wuhuan killed her."
When she was about to get married a year ago, she asked Lian'er to go to Liu Yi with her money, saying that she couldn't help him, and asked Liu Yi to find another beautiful woman. However, Lian'er never came back after she left.
She asked Xiao Wuhuan to help search, and finally Xiao Wuhuan got the news that Lian'er had left with the money.
She never thought that Lian'er was imprisoned by Xiao Wuhuan and tortured to death.
"Dudududu."
At this moment, a crisp sound sounded.
"Sorry to interrupt, please take the message."
Qingjiu smiled, raised his hand, and said to the two of them.
"Something happened in the village. A group of sect disciples suddenly came. They may have been discovered. All the vegetative people in the village came back to life."
Tickets, I want them.
Love you guys
