This night, Tang Zhou slept extremely restlessly. When the sky just turned white outside the window, he was awakened by the sound of a flute again. The flute sounded like weeping and whispered, and the flute player seemed to have endless sad things. Tang Zhou put on his robe and followed the sound involuntarily, only to see that there was no one in the courtyard visited last night, but a big pit appeared on the ground.
He pressed the scabbard and slowly approached.
I saw that there was a shallow layer of peach petals in the pit, which was buried by Master Shen last night, but the petals were no longer fresh and tender, they had become dry and wrinkled. He lowered his body and opened this layer of petals with his sword. It was astonishingly visible that there was a hand underneath that still looked as fine and soft as ceramic.
The people buried below may still be alive!
Tang Zhou didn’t have a **** or something to dig, only a long sword with his hand. Fortunately, it was not buried deep, and after a while, the man’s face slowly appeared. He stretched out his hand and sniffed, there was no breath anymore. Tang Zhou lifted his sleeves and gently wiped off the sand on the man’s face, gradually revealing a clear face.
It was a woman’s face, with picturesque brows and a smile on the corners of her mouth, three points playful and seven points well-behaved, as if she was still alive.
Tang Zhou paused, and suddenly there was a slight sound of footsteps behind him. He looked back and frowned slightly: “How did you come out?”
Yan Dan squeezed a piece of talisman paper and shook it: “I told Miss Shen that the paper outside the door is too ugly, it is better to tear it off, and she will do it.” She approached the pit and looked inside. The person in the group sighed softly: “What’s the matter? Could it be that you are destroying the body?”
Tang Zhou looked at her: “Don’t you think the people here are familiar?”
Yan Dan squatted down and looked at it carefully, with one hand supporting it: “Yes, I seem to have seen it somewhere…”
“…This person looks exactly like you.”
Yan Dan was taken aback and stood up and said, “You say that, it is indeed very similar. In this world, how can there be people who look so similar to me?”
Tang Zhou slowly said, “Not only looks alike, but also looks the same. Do you really believe that there will be such a person in this world?” Yan Dan looked at the woman buried in the pit and muttered: “It really won’t happen.” She looked up sadly in her eyes, and slowly raised her head: “That said, I am actually dead, but I don’t know?”
Tang Zhou was silent, but Yan Dan’s face was pale, and she muttered: “That’s it, that’s it…” She suddenly turned around and grabbed Tang Zhou’s sleeves, with a smile at the corner of her mouth: “I would be like this. You hurt! You said, how should you pay it back?” Her fingers were pale, and bleeding slowly came from her body: “If it weren’t for you…If it wasn’t for you, how could I end up here? You owe me, When do you plan to pay it back?!”
She looked sad and her eyes were full of despair, which he had never seen before.
Tang Zhou didn’t break free, and didn’t want to break free. He just asked, “What do I owe you? What do you want me to pay?”
Yan Dan looked at him deeply, before slowly saying, “You owe me half a heart, and I want you to vomit it back to me… You quickly return this half of your heart to me…” She no longer spoke. Re-warming soft, with a crying voice, even more sad.
Tang Zhou was inexplicably horrified, and took a step back, but he didn’t know what he had hit, and his head hurt.
He opened his eyes and found that he was lying on the bed in the guest room, the pillow fell to the floor, and he was knocked on the bedside. Tang Zhou sat up, raised his hand and rubbed his temples. It turned out that it was just a dream just now. But why did you dream of Yan Dan? It’s a nightmare in a nightmare. He got out of the bed, rinsed with the water in the basin, and slowly put on the robe.
Suddenly heard a few bird calls from outside the room, and the laughter of a girl like a silver bell, I thought it was Shen Xiangjun coming. Tang Zhou remembered what he had seen last night and couldn’t help hesitating.
Just listen to Yan Danwen’s soft voice: “Miss Shen, you got up really early.”
Shen Xiangjun smiled and said, “The early bird gets worms, and it is the one that made me get up early.”
“Miss Shen, can I say something to your bird?”
“Say it, but if it doesn’t understand it, I don’t know.”
Tang Zhou gently walked to the door of the room and pushed it a little bit open, only to see that Shen Xiangjun was standing in front of Yan Dan’s room with the piebald parrot he had seen yesterday with a smile on his shoulders.
“Bird, bird, do you think the torn pieces of paper at the door are really an eyesore? You said I should tear them all off?”
Tang Zhou suddenly understood that this lotus essence was going to escape the doorway restriction by Shen Xiangjun’s hand. He was calm, standing there still, wanting to see what she would do next.
Shen Xiangjun couldn’t help but chuckle: “Bird said, these pieces of paper are really ugly, why didn’t you tear them off earlier?”
Yan Dan sighed: “This is the senior brother’s drawing. I am low-minded, and he is afraid that I will be entangled by evil spirits.” She rolled her eyes and smiled again: “Although it looks annoying, it is still the brother’s painstaking effort. After she finished speaking, she walked a few steps forward, and suddenly she shook herself against the door.
Shen Xiangjun stepped forward and stepped on a piece of talisman paper on the threshold: “What’s wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?” She took a step forward, and this talisman paper was glued to the sole of her shoe and torn from the threshold. separated.
Yan Dan smiled slightly and said: “It’s okay, just now, for some reason, I suddenly dizzy.” Tang Zhou posted a few pieces of talisman paper, each is very particular, as long as one of them is missing, she can’t be trapped like this The cultivation base is extremely deep demon. Yan Dan smiled and walked lightly, but he stayed for a moment when he stepped out of the threshold, and then smiled and said, “Are you so early, brother?”
Tang Zhou hugged his arms and smiled, “I woke up when Miss Shen first came.”
Yan Dan smiled very cutely: “It turns out that the brother was worried that I would bully Ms. Shen. How could I do this? Ms. Shen is beautiful and kind. If she becomes my sister-in-law, I will be very happy.”
Tang Zhou’s mouth twitched slightly: “Junior Sister, you think too much.”
Yan Dan immediately changed his face into confusion: “Really? But I still want Miss Shen to be my sister-in-law.”
Just listen to Shen Xiangjun asking the parrot on his shoulder: “What is the sister-in-law?”
Tang Zhou sank his face, grabbed Yan Dan’s wrist and walked out. When he reached a place where Shen Xiangjun couldn’t see, he stuck a piece of talisman paper on her wrist: “This one is the one I just painted yesterday. I don’t want to use it so soon.”
Yan Dan watched the piece of talisman paper turn into a brilliant light, and his wrist was clasped by a heavy bracelet. She squeezed her wrists and didn’t care: “This time is a few steps of prohibition? Even if we are brothers and sisters, we still have to avoid suspicion between men and women. I can’t have **** with you, right?”
Tang Zhou smiled slightly: “This time I just can’t leave Shen’s house.”
She thought for a while, but was still not angry: “Anyway, this seems to be not too bad for me.”
Tang Zhou looked at it and saw that she still showed a very pleasing smile, then turned around and walked to the Flower Hall, walked a few steps, and then turned around and said, “I forgot to say it just now.”
Yan Dan was still looking at the bracelet in his hand, and said casually: “What?”
“That’s it. When I drew this talisman yesterday, I suddenly felt that it would not be enough if I did not draw the Shen family’s restrictions.” Tang Zhou said slowly, “So I added another one and sealed it. Most of your demon skills. If you are really entangled by evil spirits, you should be able to deal with the rest.”
Yan Dan gritted his teeth, plucking a blade of grass on one side, and threw it behind Tang Zhou with roots and soil. Tang Zhou turned sideways to avoid it, only to hear her hey, staring down at the soil, as if seeing something. He and Yan Dan have been getting along for some time, and every time she did this, most of them were okay, so she simply regarded her as having never seen it.
Yan Dan watched for a while, then took a breath: “Tang Zhou, come and see.”
Tang Zhou didn’t even think about it: “Just tell me directly.”
Yan Dan raised his head with a complicated expression: “You take the grass back. I’m not talking to you for fun. I’m afraid there will be other changes in this matter.”
Tang Zhou understood that the “this incident” she was talking about meant that he expelled ghosts from Shen’s house. He picked up the grass on the ground and walked towards Yan Dan. She slowly said: “I’ve long been wondering why the flowers and plants here grow so well, but nowhere else in the town can grow such flowers and plants.”
Tang Zhou looked down, only to see a piece of white dirt in a piece of black soil, like…a finger bone! He remembered the dream before, and couldn’t help turning his head to look at Yan Dan, only to see her lowering her eyes, her eyelashes covering her eyes, suddenly her eyelashes moved, and her dark eyes stared at him unblinkingly.
Tang Zhou looked at her eyes, but couldn’t look away. There is no joking in her eyes, her pupils are pitch black and transparent, much like docile animals. Suddenly she smiled slightly: “Why do you turn blue and white on your face?” She touched her cheek and said to herself: “Why are people always scared by me lately? Could it be that I look too majestic?”
Tang Zhou raised his hand to put the grass back to its original position, and brushed his sleeves: “It’s not majestic, it’s probably too scary.”
Yan Dan whispered something, raised his hand and pulled his hair, and pouted: “Occasionally, you will die if you say something nice?”
Tang Zhou said softly: “That’s not true, but why should I say something against my heart? This way you feel comfortable, but I feel uncomfortable. Are you right?”
Yan Dan stood with his fists squeezed, and after a while smiled like a toothache, “That’s too right.”
The Shen family is a well-known rich family in the town, and a meal early is naturally very rich.
Yan Dan gently took a small bite of the bun with lotus seed paste, and then another bite. Although the food looks good, one bun soon disappeared, so she used chopsticks to sandwich a lamb stuffing.
Master Shen saw that she only had steamed buns, and smiled kindly: “Miss Yan, this steamed bun is for filling your stomach, why don’t you have some porridge? The butter tea over there is brought back from the northwest. The taste is very unique. If you are not used to it, just drink it. It’s good to order ginseng tea.”
Yan Dan shook his head: “I haven’t eaten buns much before, I like them very much.”
Master Shen immediately said, “Could it be that the girl has practiced since she was a child and has practiced enough to not eat?”
Tang Zhou sighed.
Yan Dan thought about it for a while, and actually said, “You can probably not eat for seven or eight days.”
Master Shen was in awe: “The girl already has this cultivation level at a young age. I really admire and admire it.”
Tang Zhou couldn’t help it anymore: “Master Shen, don’t believe her. My junior sister is very naughty. Eight of the ten sentences are all for fun.”
Yan Dan raised his chopsticks and gave him a stuffed bun with beef, “Brother, I know you like this best.”
Tang Zhou looked at the steamed bun and didn’t know whether to eat it or throw it back to her. After thinking about it, he decided to swallow it. He had just finished eating, and another bun came over. Yan Dan said obediently: “Brother, let me help you clip it.”
Master Shen looked at them like this and touched his nose: “Young Master Tang and the girl really have a deep friendship.” He sighed and said again: “The old man still wanted to… well, it seems that I don’t need it.”
Yan Dan smiled when he heard the words, and used a bun to stop him and give Tang Zhou: “Master Shen, my brother and I are just brothers and sisters. Did you misunderstand something?”
Master Shen’s eyes lit up, and he touched his palm: “In fact, it’s like this. Mr. Xiang just told me about the sister-in-law. My little daughter has a thin skin, and she should like Mr. Tang very much. Mr. Tang is a talented person and it is rare to treat Mr. Xiang again. Okay, I was very in favor of this marriage. It’s just that Xiangjun…well, she is a stupid child after all.”
Just as Tang Zhou was about to speak, he was immediately preempted by Yan Dan: “If I had a sister-in-law like Ms. Shen, I would also be very happy. Besides, Ms. Shen is very smart and kind, and I will definitely not dislike it.”
Tang Zhou gave a light cough: “Master Shen, actually I…”
“I have grown up with my senior brother since I was a child, and I have never seen him care so much about that woman.”
Tang Zhou put down his chopsticks: “You…”
“You are a man. If you like it, you like it. It’s no big deal to admit it.”
He lowered his face: “Junior sister, have you said enough?”
Yan Dan spread his hands and continued to deal with Baozi: “It’s over.”
Tang Zhou paused, and then slowly said: “Master Shen, make the daughter beautiful and kind, and be worthy of being like a good person. It’s just that there are still some things that haven’t been done in the body, and I can’t settle down and get married. I’m really sorry.
Master Shen waved his hand and said with a smile: “I understand, I understand. It is enough for Tang Gongzi to have this heart, Xiangjun she… I think she can’t get married, if Tang Gongzi finishes everything, I still remember My stupid daughter, even if she is accepted as a partial house, I feel at ease.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a slender figure walking into the flower hall. When Master Shen saw the figure, his face suddenly turned pale, and his hand holding chopsticks shook.
“With a daddy like you, Xiangjun is really pitiful.” The woman who walked in had a face exactly like Shen Xiangjun, but her expression was gloomy and her eyes vaguely fierce.
Tang Zhou suddenly thought that the person he met last night was not Shen Xiangjun, but the woman in front of him.
Yan Dan used his left light to catch a glimpse of Master Shen’s every move, from his look to his subconscious little movements, everything was clearly seen. Why is he so scared? That woman looks exactly like Shen Xiangjun. She should be his eldest daughter. Why should he be afraid of his daughter? Why is there such a big difference between two people who look so alike?
