"Qingya!"
Hua Qing'er immediately stepped forward to support Qing Ya, took away Qing Ya's hand covering his forehead, and saw a stream of bright red blood flowing down Qing Ya's forehead.
Fortunately, Qingya is no longer an ordinary mortal. With the blessing of his cultivation and the warmth of the elixir, such a small wound can be healed in a moment.
"Why is there so much blood?" Hua Qing'er wiped the blood from Qing Ya's forehead with some confusion. But this was just a small accident, and I couldn't blame anyone else.
"Have you also noticed something unusual about these banknotes?" Qingya's attention at the moment was not at all on his forehead.
After hearing what Qing Ya said, Hua Qing'er also noticed what the woman in red just said. But as soon as she saw Qingya injured, she couldn't pay attention to anything else.
The woman in red stretched out her tongue and licked the blood on her lips, and said with a smile: "You must be careful not to get too close to me, I am very dangerous."
But then she frowned again, thinking: "The smell of his blood is so weird?" But she couldn't tell what was wrong, so she didn't think about it any more.
"Actually, it is not difficult for a careful person to find something fishy about these banknotes with heavy numbers, but so what?" Hua Qing'er said:
"At least so far, they can indeed go to the bank to exchange for real gold and silver. Who among all living beings can live without money?" Hua Qing'er paused at this point and did not say any more.
"But this is just drinking poison to quench thirst, so we cultivators should take responsibility for the injustices in the world." Qingya accepted the words tacitly, then turned to the woman in red and asked: "Young lady has superb cultivation, can you help me?" Two people working together?"
Just when Qingya thought he had met someone with the same ideals and was excited, the woman in red extinguished Qingya's illusions with a glass of wine.
She lowered her eyebrows, no longer looking at Qingya, playing with the wine glass in her hand, and replied quietly: "What I hate the most is you Xuanmen disciples who are full of justice. If I had known you would be like this today , I was..." At this point, she subconsciously stopped talking.
"We have indeed met, right? Then do you know who I am and where I come from?"
As if the swaying duckweed had found a fibrous root, Qingya unconsciously raised his voice. Fortunately, no one noticed them due to the din of singing and dancing around them.
"Yes, yes, three years ago I saw you about to die on the street, so I stepped forward and kicked you, okay?" The woman in red originally thought of saying something perfunctory, but unexpectedly she saw Qing Ya's expression. It dimmed.
"Three years ago, if it weren't for Sister Qing'er, I might have died on the street." After saying this, Hua Qing'er quietly took Qing Ya's hand and placed it in her own palm, silently comforting him. .
At this moment, Qing Ya suddenly grabbed Hua Qing'er's hand with his backhand and clasped his fingers tightly. Hua Qing'er tried to pull out a few times but couldn't pull it out, so she pressed Qing Ya's palm tightly, feeling the warmth in his hand. .
"Anyway, I would like to thank you for your help, girl. We will continue to pursue the clues to this matter, so we will say goodbye. I will repay you for your kindness one day."
Qingya was about to turn around and leave, but he heard the words coming from behind: "The clues will be out soon, where are you going?"
"Is what the girl said true?" Qingya came back confused.
"Why did I lie to you? Do you have anything worth deceiving me about?" The woman in red said and handed the wine glass in her hand to Qingya.
"After drinking this glass of wine, just treat what I just said as if I didn't say it." She turned her head to the side and said to Qingya arrogantly. At this moment, she was so tall and cool, but she also looked a little cute.
According to the human race, if you say or do the wrong thing, you have to apologize to the other party, but she is still arrogant and unwilling to give in to a human boy.
"The girl's unintentional behavior is not your fault." Maybe Qing Ya still had a grudge in her heart just now, but seeing her looking so cute and innocent, who would be willing to blame her?
Qingya took the wine glass in her hand and drank it in one gulp without thinking. The bright red wine enters the throat, and the first feeling on the tip of the tongue is a slight bitterness, and then the sweetness rushes to the tip of the tongue like a tide, and finally the refreshing feeling left in the throat is lingering, just like Even the breath has a hint of coolness.
"Good wine." Qingya put down his wine glass and couldn't help but praise. However, neither of them noticed that the wine glass Qingya drank from just now was the one that the woman in red had been holding in her hand. Hua Qing'er on the side wanted to stop him, but seeing that neither of them noticed, he didn't say anything.
As for whether the two people really didn't notice or were pretending, only they themselves know.
"Sister, what exactly is the clue you mentioned just now?" Hua Qing'er took the lead in continuing the topic.
"The more advanced the tricks they set, the easier it is to find clues. Next, is their highlight." The woman in red changed her wine glass and looked towards the center of the dance floor.
"Suppose someone comes to the mountains and is picked up by prickly pear blossoms. He looks at you and smiles at the same time. He admires you because he is so graceful and graceful."
As the distant singing sounded, the lights in the hall gradually dimmed. Only the crystal ore and luminous pearls exude a cold brilliance, as if they have instantly traveled from a magnificent palace to a remote mountain forest.
"Riding on a red leopard, we followed Wenli, and Xinyi's chariot came to form the laurel flag. I was led by Shi Lanxi, carrying Du Heng, and I left behind my thoughts."
The girl in a green skirt jumped out happily from the dark corner, jumping happily like a deer in the forest. The makeup on her face was as bright and moving as a peacock under the dim light. With her appearance, the originally noisy hall became silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on her alone.
"The rest of the place is dark and dark, but the sky is nowhere to be seen. The road is dangerous and difficult, so I have to come back alone. The surface is independent on the mountain, and the clouds are beautiful below."
The clever deer turned into a god-like girl, and her swaying figure seemed to convey her desire for freedom.
This is the chapter "Mountain Ghost" in "Nine Songs". It shows the hopelessness and sorrow, which is full of pathos. It is probably that the gods also regard the mournful sound as beautiful and cannot bear to let a girl suffer the miserable wind and rain.
But at this moment, in Qing Ya's eyes, the girl in front of him was like a deer imprisoned in a cage, eager to break through the shackles and run towards freedom.
"The sky is dim, the day is dark, the east wind is drifting with the rain of gods. The spirit is left to practice, and I forget to return. The year is long, and who is the flower?"
The drum beat suddenly started, the music wailed, and the confused deer ran around in the dark forest. The rain was pouring down, and the fierce waterfall made her unable to raise her head. Her delicate body was shivering in the wind and rain.
Qingya was so completely immersed in the wilderness that he didn't realize when the dance ended.
Seeing his dull look, the woman in red blew gently into the wine in the cup, causing a thin layer of ice to form on the surface of the cup.
Then she quietly placed the wine glass on Qing Ya's face, and the young man in front of her just woke up as if from a dream.
"Enthralled?"
The woman in red drank all the wine in the glass, and the coolness she spit out sprayed on Qingya's face, bringing with it a hint of sweet and drunken ecstasy.
"If my guess is right, she should be the clue you are looking for."
