Xie Fu changed the subject: "Aren't you worried about the Ghost Queen at all?"
Qin Xiang'er said calmly: "We already know the result in advance, so there is nothing to worry about."
"You know the result, what is the result?"
"You know, with the strength of the Ghost Queen, I'm afraid I'm going to be doomed tonight."
"Can't there be other possibilities?"
Qin Xiang'er shook his head: "The martial arts cultivation of the seven ghosts of the Taoist sect is not very strong. If it is a head-to-head confrontation, let alone Taboo, even facing the iron-blooded ones, it will be difficult to match them."
"unless……"
"Unless what?"
Qin Xiang'er didn't want to talk about these issues: "It has nothing to do with you."
Xie Fu was very interested: "I really want to know."
"Don't get involved in these martial arts disputes. Don't think that you are a big deal just because you are a second-grade official. You have no absolute strength and are just a chess piece for others. If you are of no use, others can use you as a chess piece at any time." Take it away.”
"Don't think that you are worthy of Qin Chuzhen's friends and brothers. In fact, you are just a slave in his eyes."
It seems that Qin Xiang'er did not know the details of Xie Fu, so he said these words.
Qin Xiang'er said softly: "I have looked away a long time ago. I don't want to get involved in these things. I'm tired. It's easiest to just not listen or ask."
Xie Fu didn't say it clearly, but said with a smile: "I thought that after becoming a high official, I would be able to protect you, Sister Xiang'er."
Qin Xiang'er chuckled: "My protection for you is enough. Do you think they are doing it for your sake tonight? They are afraid of me, Qin Xiang'er, and they are just using you to go downhill."
Xie Fu couldn't explain how fierce he was now, so he continued the topic: "Sister Xiang'er, just talk about that unless..."
Qin Xiang'er smiled and said in a casual tone: "Actually, it's nothing, except that the ghost queen can master the "Shangchi Ghost Code"."
Xie Fu blurted out: "What the hell?"
"The ancient ghost king Emperor Zongjie collected the works he learned from his life in Shangchi. It is an ancient book suitable for the cultivation of humans and ghosts. It is said that after learning this book, his magical power can impeach hundreds of ghosts and control all ghosts and monsters in the world. sprite."
Xie Fu is the most familiar with these unofficial biographies. It is said that the Emperor Yaoji was a god who came to the world to save suffering, and transformed into a ghost king to frighten the ghosts and maintain order in the world. There is a proverb in later generations: Manna helps people and ghosts, and kindness crosses the underworld.
He smiled and said, "That's really ancient."
Qin Xiang'er answered: "But this is impossible."
Xie Fu was confused: "Why did you say this?"
"The strange book "Shangchi Ghost Code" does exist. It is unknown whether it was written by the Ghost King Zongjie, but one thing is certain. No one has ever mastered this book."
"Why?"
"Because practicing will lead to death. In ancient times, very few people who first glimpsed the door died without practicing it. Either the wisdom of the universe and heaven and earth contained in this book is beyond human wisdom, or it may be that they want to practice this book. What secret method is needed, and this secret method has been lost due to long history. In short, this book has become an unsolvable mystery."
"It's the same as whether you said it or not."
Qin Xiang'er smiled and said, "I'm just teasing you."
At this moment, Yun Yan's voice came from outside the room: "Little elder."
Qin Xiang'er said calmly: "I understand, there's no need to say anything."
You don't need to guess to know that the Ghost Queen was captured by Qin Chucheng. Who told the Ghost Queen to throw herself into a trap? Anyway, she didn't want to deal with the Earth Sect's affairs.
Yun Yan called out again: "Little elder."
Qin Xiang'er had no choice but to stand up and said to Fu Xie, "I'll be back in a minute."
People walked outside and before Yun Yao could speak first, he said, "I don't want to get involved in the Earth Sect's affairs. Whether the Ghost Queen lives or dies has nothing to do with me."
After Yun Yan pondered for a moment, he still said: "The Ghost Queen killed Huang He and captured You Bao."
Qin Xiang'er exclaimed: "What's going on?"
So Yun Yan explained the process in detail, and Qin Xiang'er calmed down after hearing it: "Okay, I know."
Yun Youqing asked: "Little elder, why do you think the Ghost Queen is so powerful? Even You Ba and Zhan Zhennan are no match for her together?"
"What does it have to do with me whether she is powerful or not?" Qin Xiang'er said and turned around to go back to the room.
Yun Zhui shouted: "Little elder, I have something to discuss with you."
"Yun Yan, I advise you not to speak."
Seeing Qin Xiang'er come back, Xie Fu took the initiative to ask: "What happened?" He just heard Qin Xiang'er's exclamation in the room, so he expected something happened.
Qin Xiang'er said bluntly: "The ghost queen killed Huang He and it is especially taboo to capture him."
Xie Fu was quite surprised: "The ghost queen is so powerful, it's not because the seven ghosts of Taoist sect are only good at sneaky things and have no power to fight."
Qin Xiang'er looked at Fu Xie intriguingly: "You know a lot."
Xie Fu smiled: "Sister Xiang'er, a lot of things have happened to me in these years. I am no longer the young boy I once was."
"No matter what you become, you are still a brat in my eyes."
Xie Fu smiled.
"Why, you are not convinced after becoming a high official?"
Xie Fu had no choice but to compromise and said, "I'm convinced."
Qin Xiang'er then smiled: "You eat slowly, I'll wash myself first."
Just as he turned around, he stopped and looked back, jokingly saying: "Since you are no longer a young boy, do you want a girl to accompany you?"
Xie Fu smiled harshly: "Yes."
Qin Xiang'er's face immediately darkened, but she heard Xie Fu say with a smile: "It's best to have a big lady, but she must be beautiful, elegant, charming, good at talking, singing, and have the slightest wrinkles at the corners of her eyes..."
"That's right."
After taking a bath, Qin Xiang'er changed into the clothes commonly worn by Jiangnan women, with a light bun and light makeup. Looking at herself in the mirror, she didn't have too much charm, but she looked more elegant and more like a sister. .
only……
He gently touched the corner of his eye with his hand. Even though the wrinkle was very shallow, it was clearly a wrinkle.
The boy has grown up, and she has grown old, and she feels inexplicably regretful in her heart. She has no memory of her youth, and she is getting old, which is true to the saying that time is ruthless.
Suddenly he smiled brightly: "It's not like I have no impression of Zhu Yan's words about the flowers in the mirror and the trees."
After mentioning the altar, Fu Shuichun walked towards his room. There had never been a night that made people look forward to it so much.
When I returned to the room, I saw Mr. Xie lying lazily on his bed without taking off his shoes. He couldn't help but smile, "You are so rude. I sleep on my mother's bed so rudely."
But there was a cold voice on his lips: "You idiot, you are dirty and smelly, how can you sleep in my bed?"
Xie Fu sat up straight, rubbed his eyes, and looked like he had just woken up: "You took such a long time to take a bath, I fell asleep while waiting."
Qin Xiang'er said with a straight face: "What are you pretending to be?"
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Sister Xiang'er, you still smell the same. When I smell it, I feel like I'm back home. I feel very at ease."
"Stop it!"
As Qin Xiang'er spoke, he pulled him up from his bed. This kind of wantonness of his had become a habit.
Xie Fu suddenly made a sound and stared at Qin Xiang'er. His eyes were burning. He was a little embarrassed to stare at Qin Xiang'er, a seasoned woman in a brothel. He said fiercely: "What are you looking at!"
"Oh, Sister Xiang'er, you are different today."
Qin Xiang'er asked knowingly: "What's the difference?"
"It's not tacky anymore, it's as elegant as if it came out of a book."
"You're such a mouthful of nonsense, it's weird for me to believe you."
Xie Fu walked around her and looked at her. She had a slender waist, pointed legs, and elegant long hair. She stood tall and quiet, and there was an indescribable gentleness and gracefulness in her figure.
"Is this still the Xiang'er sister I know?"
Qin Xiang'er saw that his eyes were full of teasing and pushed him: "Stop talking so much."
Fu Xie was pushed back to the bed again and said with a smile: "Sister Xiang'er, don't be so rude. I'm just like you." If it were any other woman, Fu Xie wouldn't dare to say such frivolous words. With Qin Xiang'er, There is no problem in the time, but there is a kind of relaxed and casual play.
Qin Xiang'er couldn't help but chuckle as she thought about the scene where she, Keqin, Hengmei, and Baoshu were holding Fu Xie down and trying to strip him of his clothes. The boy was desperately resisting.
"Now I am weak, so if you dare to make fun of me, I will show you how powerful I am."
Xie Fu timidly covered himself with the quilt and hid under the quilt. This is a habit, just like no matter how old you are, you will instinctively respect your parents.
When Qin Xiang'er picked him up with one hand, Mr. Xie was not even taller than her chest.
"Do you like my bed that much?"
Qin Xiang'er walked into the bed with a smile, lifted the quilt, and saw Fu Xie's stretched body, couldn't help but giggle: "You monkey, you still can't get down."
Xie Fu closed his eyes and took a deep breath. There was only one fragrance in the world that filled his nose. This is the smell of Sister Xiang'er, and it is also the smell of home. It is warm and intoxicating: "I like it so much."
Qin Xiang'er looked at the man in front of her. She didn't know that compared to his dignity, when he was unrestrained, he had an uncountable wild attraction!
She really enjoyed it.
In fact, she is extremely possessive of Xie Fu. No matter he is a teenager or an adult, this man is his.
Before I knew it, he had married a wife. I had known him for almost ten years!
A strong sense of imbalance filled her heart, making her very angry: "Come down, you are not allowed to sleep in my bed!"
Poof!
Xie Fu was roughly pulled out of bed by Qin Xiang'er and threw him to the ground.
Qin Xiang'er was stunned and felt a little worried.
Xie Fu smiled playfully: "Okay, just don't sleep."
Qin Xiang'er finally let go of her hanging heart and said in a deep voice: "You are not allowed to sleep tonight and you are drinking with me!"
Xie Fu responded with a smile: "Forget it if I drink. It's not like you don't know what kind of virtue I have after drinking. I'm afraid I'll offend you, Sister Xiang'er."
Qin Xiang'er chuckled: "If you monkey is really capable, it won't matter if my sister molests you!"
As he spoke, he opened the lid of the wine jar, and a mellow smell of wine wafted out, hitting his nose and brain, and immediately ticked off Fu's drinking bug: "Fu Shuichun?"
"It's the best Fushuichun! Are you greedy?"
Xie Fu smiled: "There is no second batch of Fushuichun in this world, haven't you already finished drinking it?"
"I specially hid a jar and waited for a good day to drink it."
"What kind of day is today?"
"Isn't it a good day for you and me to meet again after a long absence?"
It's funny to say that she originally planned to drink this jar of wine when Xie Fu got married. As a sister, she thought a lot about Xie Fu, but things in the world are fickle.
"Calculate!"
, Xie Fu got up in response and sat down at the table.
Qin Xiang'er poured the wine into the jug and poured a glass for Xie Fu.
Fu Xie smelled the aroma of the wine, and the wine bugs were already rolling in his stomach. For some reason, he couldn't bear to drink it. There was always a voice in his heart that after drinking this wine, there would be no more.
Seeing that he was reluctant to take action, Qin Xiang'er smiled and said, "What? Now that you've become an adult, you've become naughty and don't like my wine anymore."
"No, this is the last jar of rich water spring. Once you finish drinking it, it will be gone. I feel a bit reluctant to part with it."
"Wine is always around, but people may not always be with you. It would be a pity if this jar of wine is still there when you and I are buried in the ground."
After Qin Xiang'er finished speaking, she drank the wine in one gulp, her lips reddened by the wine, and she said happily: "Pleasure."
When Xie Fu saw this, he drank it all in one gulp. In an instant, he was about to ascend to heaven: "Pour some wine!"
The two drank three glasses of wine in a row to express their joy at seeing each other after an absence. Qin Xiang'er then started chatting: "Tell me how you have lived these years?"
Xie Fu drank wine and talked about his travel experiences over the years.
From encountering floods and famine to Wuxi County counterfeiting the plague to cure it.
From wandering under Suzhou City to being a slave in Tantai Mansion.
Walk from Suzhou to Lingshan Wenting, from Lingshan Wenting to Jinling, from Jinling to Shenwu Peak, from Shenwu Peak back to Suzhou, return home to Yangzhou in fine clothes, from Yangzhou to Yuchen Mountain, from Yuchen Mountain to Leiyuan Sect, from Leiyuan Sect Zong arrived in Chang'an...
Studying literature and Taoism in Lingshan...
In Jinling, he defeated the stars and won the first place, competing with Wang Youtong for supremacy...
Fight a group of fairies at Shenwu Peak, face the real person of Dongji...
He returned to Suzhou to serve as the governor of Huainan Province, and returned to his hometown to marry a wife...
Go to Yuchen Mountain to fight against the Nestorian religion of the Qin Dynasty...
To the Lei Yuan Sect holding the Thunder God Sword and fighting against the Supreme Being...
As he drank more and more, Xie Fu spoke freely and his emotions were high, but he downplayed the many times he wandered through the gates of hell.
After briefly talking about several years of experience, it was already midnight and half a jar of wine had been drunk.
Qin Xiang'er felt a lot of emotion and felt that she wasted a lot. Her life seemed to be feasting, lively and rich, but in fact it was dull and boring.
It was Xie Fu who was chatting and laughing in front of him, and he had a hazy feeling of a boy and a man swinging from side to side.
The image of a young man makes her feel as close as a family member, comfortable and without the need to pretend, and she can say whatever she wants.
The image of a man made her heart beat clearly, making her feel like a woman, not a sister.
He is already a man, but he is still living in the past.
I feel an inexplicable sadness in my heart. This sadness is just like when a baby bird grows up, it will eventually leave the protection of the mother bird, and the vast sea and sky are its world.
From now on, we will see each other again indefinitely.
Qin Xiang'er drank a glass of wine, but she felt sad and melancholy.
Xie Fu was already half drunk. He held his chin and smiled at Qin Xiang'er: "Sister, I think you are not happy."
Qin Xiang'er could tell from his undisguised eyes and the crooked body he was sitting on that he was half drunk. Fu Xie would never be like this when he was sober. He could be called a model of a humble gentleman.
Regarding Xie Fu, she often has a doubt, why does one person have two such contrasting personalities? Which one is the real Xie Fu? Or maybe human nature is inherently complicated, both.
Or maybe he was born to be a prodigal, but he was influenced by books and ink later in life, wrapping his promiscuous heart with gentleness and elegance.
"Who says I'm unhappy?"
Xie Fu said with a smile: "It's always lonely in the dead of night. Let's do this. Sing me a little song."
Qin Xiang'er couldn't help but hit Xie Fu: "No one can ask me to sing a ditty."
But the man stood up with a wine flask, dancing and singing:
A pot of good wine and a full moon fill the sky with loneliness and sorrow and the night of lovesickness.
Thousands of years have passed by in a hurry, and the clouds are flying at the end of the world.
When Shanshan is clear, she cuts off the candle and puts it away gently.
I just hope that the full moon will never be missing again, and that it will return with the full moon tonight.
…
An update today.
