“Senior Xishi, you have been beautiful since childhood, with natural beauty and stunning looks.

Once, when you, Senior Xi Shi, went to the stream to wash clothes, the fish saw your appearance and forgot to swim, and gradually sank to the bottom of the river. From then on, "沉鱼" became a synonym for you, Senior Xi Shi.

But, Senior Xishi, is this true?" Li Wu asked, blinking her big eyes. Xishi was really beautiful, the kind that could astonish people at first sight and make them unable to walk.

Zhuo Wenjun and Liu Rushi were also very curious.

Especially Liu Rushi, as the leader of the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai, she was very good-looking and talented.

Before, Liu Rushi was quite confident about her appearance, but after seeing the sky curtain, she realized that there are always people better than you.

The women who have appeared on the sky curtain all have their own merits and stories. If she had to say who she admired the most, it would naturally be General Qin Liangyu of their Ming Dynasty.

He is both civil and military, and his own strength makes people admire him.

When Xi Shi heard this, she was helpless. Who spread this rumor? It was not that exaggerated.

"Little fairy, why do you always believe these things? The fish just paused for a while and then left," Xi Shi shook her head helplessly.

"So it's true. As expected, even the fish know that Senior Xishi is beautiful. If I were as beautiful as you, Senior Xishi, I would wake up laughing in my dreams. I would walk sideways every day and let the whole world know that I am beautiful," Li Wu said exaggeratedly. If she was really beautiful, she would admire herself every day and feel that no one was worthy of her. She would have to look in the mirror a hundred or eighty times a day.

Hearing the words of the little immortal, the three of them couldn't help laughing.

Many of the ancestors in front of the sky curtain agreed. Not to mention, if they really looked as beautiful as Xi Shi, even half as beautiful, they would walk sideways.

Of course, these are just jokes. At that time, being good-looking was not a good thing, especially during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when there were wars every day.

"The little fairy is always good at joking," Xi Shi tapped Li Wu's eyebrows. Li Wu was about to become mentally retarded.

It’s better to have a beautiful woman. She can be close and do some intimate actions. Handsome men can only watch but not touch. What if she is married? That would be the end of her.

"I'm not joking. These are all my true feelings. Three seniors, please don't stop and eat. If you don't eat now, I will eat it all up in a while."

"Oh, I have to eat them quickly, or the fairy will eat them all in one gulp, and I will have nothing to eat."

Several people started joking around, and the atmosphere was so harmonious.

Pass food to each other and recommend your own dishes to each other.

King Fuchai of Wu was looking at Xi Shi on the sky curtain with a look of obsession on his face. He knew very well that Xi Shi was sent by the Kingdom of Yue to seduce him.

But he just couldn't bear to execute the other person. When he saw Xi Shi with the little fairy, she smiled so happily and beautifully, which was something he had never seen before.

King Fuchai of Wu had naturally seen Xi Shi's smile, but it was different. He felt it was completely different.

One is a genuine smile, the other is a fake smile.

"I will continue to talk about your deeds, Senior Xishi.

Senior Xishi, you have a heart disease, so you often hold your chest and frown.

An ugly girl in Dongcun thought that your movement was very beautiful, so she started to imitate you and walked among the neighbors.

As a result, the rich people stayed indoors when they saw it, and the poor people took their wives and children and hid away from it.

The ugly girl only knows that you, Senior Xishi, look good when you frown and cover your chest, but she doesn't know why you do that.

This is an idiom that many people know, "Dong Shi Xiou Pin."

Xi Shi didn't care about this. Many people thought she was beautiful and would try to learn a thing or two from her from time to time. They envied her good looks, but didn't she also envy them for their good health?

"I have heard of this story before," Zhuo Wenjun said. She didn't think much of it when she heard it before, but now when she heard it again, she felt a little sorry for Senior Xi Shi.

Others only know that Senior Xi Shi looks pitiful and always frowns and covers her chest, but how could they know that she has a heart disease?

She couldn't believe how painful it would be for Senior Xishi to have a heart attack.

When Dong Shi in front of the sky heard what the fairy said, her face turned red and hot.

She just thought Xi Shi was very beautiful, so she tried to imitate her. She thought Xi Shi pretended to be like that because she was pretty, but it turned out to be because she had a heart disease?

If she imitated her in that way, wouldn't that be rubbing salt into Wang Xishi's heart?

This made Dong Shi very uncomfortable. She was just imitating Xi Shi. Indeed, no matter how much she imitated, how could she compare to Xi Shi?

She also wanted to apologize to Xi Shi, but now, even meeting her was impossible.

There were many people mocking Dong Shi in the barrage, and there were also people speaking for Dong Shi, saying that ignorance is not a crime, and besides, Dong Shi didn't commit any big mistake.

"It's nothing actually. Senior Xishi, you are so beautiful that it's normal for people to imitate you unconsciously. But it can't be too much, otherwise it won't be good," Li Wu shook his head. A beauty looks good in everything she does, so it's okay to want to learn a thing or two from her.

But you can't just follow suit, because that will only make others laugh at you.

“So, Senior Xishi, your beauty has spread, and more people know that you are good-looking.

In 494 BC, King Fuchai of Wu defeated the State of Yue. King Gou Jian of Yue was forced to seek peace with Wu and was taken as a hostage by Wu.

After King Gou Jian of Yue was released and returned to his country, he employed wise ministers and worked hard to restore the country's strength.

The doctor Wen Zhong proposed seven strategies to destroy Wu, among which the beauty trap was the most important one.

However, many historical records say that it was Fan Li who went to find you, Senior Xi Shi. But you just said that you and Senior Fan Li did not know each other at all, and had never even met each other, so how can I continue?" Li Wu looked at Xi Shi in confusion, with an aggrieved look on her face. She had checked a lot of information, and there was no clear record that Xi Shi and Fan Li knew each other.

However, there are also records saying that neither of them left their driving schools when they were young. So, if they never left, how could they know each other?

Fan Li had a wife and three sons, and Xi Shi was accompanying the King of Wu at that time.

Liu Rushi and Zhuo Wenjun couldn't help laughing, and now the little immortal didn't know what to say.

Xi Shi blinked her big watery eyes and said, "Little Immortal, why don't you just tell us what you know? Why bother about whether history is true or false?"

Besides, Xi Shi didn't think she was an important person. She was just a chess piece who could be abandoned at any time. She even knew that Wu Miejiu would be killed, so there was no need to say what her fate would be. It was impossible for her to have a good ending.

"Well, then, King Gou Jian of Yue sent his doctor Fan Li to search the country for the most beautiful woman.

Fan Li had heard of your great name, Senior Xi Shi, so he came directly to Zhuluo Village and found you by the Huansha Creek.
