leave the wind on the grass

The wedding dress was laid flat on the table, and the folds of the cuffs were smoothed out one by one. The wide-sleeved gown looked graceful and dignified.A colorful phoenix is ​​entrenched on the waist, and all birds are facing the phoenix.The golden edge of the garment has complicated patterns, flowing like mantras.Li Bucai pulled the wedding dress away again, and there was actually a pattern inside, which was a thousand-layered peony slowly blooming.

"It's just that no one has ever worn this wedding dress before, so we can't appreciate its true posture." Li Bucai sighed, and adjusted the collar of the wedding dress again and again until it was completely straightened.

The man wiped his tears with his hands, stared at the wedding dress in a daze, and tightly pursed his lips, but he didn't reach out to touch it, and he didn't dare.Several people stared at the wedding dress for a long time, which made Qiu Xiaofeng yawn.Yueci began to rush people away, "The shop is about to close, if you have nothing to do, please go back."

"Brother Yue..." Li Bucai frowned.

"I'm sorry to bother you, so I'll take my leave, take my leave." The man bowed his knees, lowered his tone, stood up, turned around and walked out slowly.

"This……"

When that person goes out, Yue Ci will close the shop.Li Bucai shook his head and sighed, "The world is going downhill, people's hearts are not old, it's sad."

After the sour scholar shook his head and said, he went to collect the account book again, and suddenly a copper coin fell out of his sleeve while walking. He stepped on it with his foot quickly, and bent down to pick it up again.Li Bucai picked up the copper plate, put it near his mouth and blew on it, then carefully put it in his purse.

Seeing that Li Bucai was familiar with that person, Qiu Xiaofeng couldn't help asking, "What does that person do? What's his name? He often comes here?"

"The man's name is Qiu Dian, and he claims to be a farmer on the edge of Liuyang City. Since his wife died 13 years ago, he has never married again. Ever since I heard that Jinghua's wedding dress moved here, there have been frequent visits. Come and see, it has been like this for a year, I miss him eagerly, and I often bring this wedding dress to him to see."

Yue Ci had long since disappeared, so Li Bucai locked the door of the shop, took the key to the manager himself, and bid farewell to Qiu Xiaofeng.

"You don't sleep in the shop?"

"I only have weak women and weak children in my family. If I don't come back, I'm afraid something will happen." He checked even the door lock carefully before leaving with confidence.

It turned out that Li Bucai had already married and established a business, and he didn't know how his cautious and sour temperament could take on the important responsibility of the family.

While thinking about it, Qiu Xiaofeng walked towards the residence arranged by Jin Suoyi Pavilion. There are several rooms in the backyard, where servants sleep overnight. Poor Qiu Xiaofeng and that Yue Ci who is not easy to get along with A room, I'm afraid there will be a fight.

The door was ajar, but Qiu Xiaofeng opened it with a push, accompanied by a "squeak".

I saw Yue Ci sitting at the table and fiddling with something. He had already taken off the outer robe and still kept it aside, only wearing an inner coat, very heroic.

Qiu Xiaofeng coughed.

Yue Ci was unmoved at all, and seemingly unintentionally pulled the collar away a little, frowned, looking very hot and unbearable, then picked up the fan on the side and fanned it a few times.

The looming collarbone was exposed between the collar, and his figure was thin.

Qiu Xiaofeng couldn't help asking, "What are you?"

Yue Ci didn't hide it, and said, "Anyone who can crack the mechanism of a unique lock handed down from generation to generation will be the world's number one magic hand."

"Why is it in your hands?"

"Feng Shui turns around, come to my house this year."

"You give me a try?"

"you?"

Yue Ci looked at Qiu Xiaofeng contemptuously, and threw the lock at Qiu Xiaofeng.

The lock was quite heavy, Qiu Xiaofeng weighed it, fiddled with the keyhole a few times with his fingers, but found that the keyhole was blocked, how could it be opened?

Yue Ci had expected that he was going to make a fool of himself, and snatched the lock away again, "Don't move around. You won't be able to afford it if you break it."

Qiu Xiaofeng pouted, turned around and walked to the bed to lie down and sleep.

Sleeping drowsily in the middle of the night, Qiu Xiaofeng vaguely saw Yue Ci still tinkering with that strange lock, and there were rustling sounds from time to time.The hazy moonlight came in from the window and shone on Yue Ci's body, making her look more and more lightened.

What a weirdo.

Qiu Xiaofeng closed his eyes again and fell asleep.

The next day.

Yue Ci ran to the store again early in the morning, and by the time Qiu Xiaofeng rubbed his eyes and got up from the bed, Yue Ci had already sold several clothes.

It's amazing to go on like this.

One morning passed, Qiu Xiaofeng's performance was dismal, so he simply took a small bench to the door to check.

When it was almost closing time, that Qiu Dian came again.

Li Bucai showed him the wedding dress, and put it away after reading it.Qiu Xiaofeng smelled a pungent smell of medicine on his body. The smell of medicine was so unpleasant that his nose hurt from the choking.He couldn't help but waved his hand to drive away the smell.

Li Bucai locked the store door, and walked out through the back door with a sad face.Qiu Xiaofeng stretched out his hand and turned the lock, thinking that the lock was clanging and clanging, squinting and seeing Li Bucai's hand tucked into his sleeve, as if he was holding something.

After dinner, Qiu Xiaofeng went to sleep in the yard again. Halfway there, he heard the sound of "splashing" water. Feeling suspicious, he pushed the door open.

Then consciously close.

The one surnamed Yue took a bath in a grand manner.

A basin of cold water was poured down on the top of the head, and he tossed his hair again. The water droplets flowed down the neck and across the shoulder blades, slender waist, hips, and long legs.

Beautiful boy.

Qiu Xiaofeng covered his nose and was about to turn around and leave.

The door was pushed open abruptly, Qiu Xiaofeng turned his head and saw Yue Ci casually put on an undershirt and walked out without hesitation, the tear mole at the corner of his eye was soaked by water drops, it was so enchanting .

"You're petty, and you're not a woman, so why are there so many taboos?" He mocked a few more words, and walked slowly into the room, wiping his hair with a handkerchief in one hand, very casually.

Qiu Xiaofeng squatted in the yard to calm down for a long time before returning to normal. He took a deep breath, opened the door and walked in again.

It's just that Yue Ci went to bed early this day, and kicked off the quilt, covering half of it.

Qiu Xiaofeng fell asleep again in a daze.

A few more days passed.

Qiu Xiaofeng got to know these guys more and more. Yue Ci seemed to be not easy to provoke, although he was indeed easy to provoke, but his heart was not bad; Li Bucai was too cautious, I have to check the wedding dress, account books, and locks several times every day. These days, my face is full of sadness, maybe something happened at home; that Qiu Dian comes often, and every time he looks at the mirror flower wedding dress, he wants to cry. He was extremely regretful, and the smell of medicine on his body was also particularly strong.

Qiu Xiaofeng yawned, feeling drowsy.

But I heard Li Bucai yelling in a panic, "It's bad, it's bad! That, that Jinghua wedding dress, no, it's gone! This, this is what to do!"

"What?!" Yue Ci roared loudly, shaking the deaf ears.

Qiu Xiaofeng didn't feel anything, didn't say anything, that Qiu Dian didn't come over today.

"When did you disappear?" Yue Ci asked.

"I, I," Li Bucai slapped his thigh anxiously, "I went to check just now, only to find that the compartment was empty and the mirror flower was gone. How can I explain this!"

"Have you hidden the mirror flower well?"

"I usually put it there, locked it in a secret compartment with a lock, no one knows where it is, how could it be..."

"Cubicle?"

"Yeah, right behind that painting!"

"Someone must have stolen it..."

Qiu Xiaofeng replied, "I don't know how obvious it is to put it behind. Is there any secret passage in this world that is hidden behind a painting, a vase, a bookshelf, or under the bed board? You can find this kind of thing casually, and even more so." Don't mention that you read it a hundred and eighty times a day, it's easier to find."

"This, this..." Li Bucai was extremely annoyed, and didn't know what to say.

Yue Ci's voice turned cold, "I hear what you mean, but you stole the wedding dress?"

"None of my business."

"I'm busy selling clothes every day, and my feet don't touch the ground, but you wander around in the store every day. I think you are looking for a hiding place for your wedding dress?"

Li Bucai looked at him with disbelief in his eyes.

"Could it be that this is why Brother Qiu often comes to talk to me? How can you, I'm afraid I told you this hiding place unintentionally, so you..." Li Bucai seemed to have found a straw, and kept going. He stared straight at Qiu Xiaofeng.

"It's not me!" Qiu Xiaofeng said, "I'm a man, what do you want this wedding dress for?"

"Of course it's for my sweetheart." Yue Ci said.

"I'm going to ask the steward to come and let her understand!" Li Bucai wiped the sweat from his brow, turned around and walked outside.

Yue Ci looked at him like a knife, Qiu Xiaofeng didn't dare to move, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and clenched his hands into fists.

"You stole something, do you still want to vent your anger?" Yue Ci said with a sarcasm.

"I didn't steal it! Why do you doubt me!" Qiu Xiaofeng yelled.

Qiu Xiaofeng never thought that anyone would intentionally frame him, harm him, or take advantage of him.At the beginning, after hearing the words of the leader of the martial arts alliance, he went to the Demon Sect to assassinate the demon leader with enthusiasm.Since then, everything has changed.The originally gentle and watery person turned out to be the famous leader of the Demon Cult, the originally upright person turned out to be an insidious villain who seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages, and the originally generous person turned out to be secretly hiding selfishness and having evil intentions.These real villains and hypocrites, it seems that they are not as magnanimous as the dream of the ghost sect master who said that he was going to die or live.

His older brother Qiu Xuli probably lost his eyes because of this, lost all his martial arts, and couldn't even walk steadily.

If he, Qiu Xiaofeng, doesn't grow his brain, he will really harm others and himself.

"This 'Mirror Flower' wedding gown is lost as soon as it is said to be lost. Do you remember that it is a handed down work of my Golden Thread Clothes Pavilion? If you lose it, let alone this month's wages, even your lives will be in danger. I'm not afraid to tell you that although I, the Golden Thread Clothes Pavilion, bear the name of a businessman, no one in the government and the public, inside and outside the rivers and lakes, can say that I don't want to sell my face. If I find out who stole something, Naturally, he will be unable to eat and walk around!"

Qiu Xiaofeng came back to his senses, and saw a woman in a half-length red robe with sleeves and waist standing in front of her.It can be seen that the seriousness of the situation.

"Whoever stole it, stand up by yourself, so as not to be found out, and lose face!"

The woman's eyes wandered over the faces of several people, as if she remembered every subtle expression in her eyes, if anyone felt guilty or flinched, she would be caught out.

Li Bucai tremblingly said: "The villain has been taking care of Jinghua for more than a year, and he has never made a mistake. Now that Jinghua is missing, it is after these two came. Yueci is busy every day, and he doesn't talk much to me. I I didn't see him there when the mirror flower was stored, so I thought, I thought..."

Unexpectedly, Li Bucai was so honest and honest, and he also raised suspicions.I'm afraid he is afraid of losing his mirror image, the fault is too great to make up for and lose his job, so he wants to push it to others in a panic.

The woman looked at Qiu Xiaofeng again, "Who are you?"

"The villain, Qiu Xiaofeng, is a newly recruited servant."

"Qiu Xiaofeng..." The woman nodded, took another look at Yue Ci, then turned to Qiu Xiaofeng and said, "Come with me."

Seeing Qiu Xiaofeng being interrogated alone, Li Bucai wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, maybe he was relieved, his whole body collapsed.

Qiu Xiaofeng followed the woman all the way up to the second floor, making the ladder creak under her feet.

"Go in."

Qiu Xiaofeng pushed open the door and walked in, not knowing why.

The woman asked, "Did you steal the wedding dress?"

"It's not me." Qiu Xiaofeng said firmly.

"Then who do you think it is?"

"do not know."

Qiu Xiaofeng answered very quickly, without thinking, but didn't want to blame anyone.

"Boss Bai happened to be here and is in the back room. If you have any grievances, you must explain it carefully to Boss Bai. Otherwise, someone will always be responsible for the loss of the wedding dress, and that's out of your hands." After the woman finished speaking, she lifted her foot and walked inside.

Qiu Xiaofeng followed step by step.

The further you go in, the more you can smell the smell of medicine.

The woman stepped back respectfully and said, "Boss Bai, this is Qiu Xiaofeng."

Only then did Qiu Xiaofeng start to look at the appearance of this Boss Bai.

Although there was a chance meeting at the treasure hunting conference, Qiu Xiaofeng completely forgot about this person after that, but he just saw him suddenly, thinking about it, this person is a dying medicine jar, even participating in the treasure hunting conference It's also the same way that he is breathing down bowl after bowl of medicine, and will cough a few times heart-piercingly from time to time.

"You are Qiu Xiaofeng?"

"The villain is right." Qiu Xiaofeng replied.

"There was a lot of trouble at the Treasure Hunting Conference that day. I heard about it, but it was a pity that I left the venue early because of physical discomfort." Bai Xiao sat on the agarwood chair covered with cotton cushions, expressing something said.

"It's such a big mess, Boss Bai is not in good health, so it doesn't matter if he leaves early, there is no regret at all." Qiu Xiaofeng said in a muffled voice.

This Boss Bai is also considered to be very gentle, but he is sick and seems to have no strength. The long and slender fingers placed outside have distinct joints, narrow fingertips, and the skin is so thin that it seems that it cannot bear a little trauma.

"Isn't Qiu Shaoxia rumored to have been captured by the leader of the Demon Cult, how could he appear here so unscathed?"

"Boss Bai was worrying too much. The devil got tired of watching me, so he let me go."

Bai Xiao tapped the handrail lightly with his fingers, and asked again, "Why would Qiu Shaoxia think of coming to work in my Golden Thread Clothes Pavilion? I am very honored."

"Because there is no money." Qiu Xiaofeng replied gruffly.

"Qiu Shaoxia is outspoken, and Bai admires it. Naturally, he also thinks that Qiu Shaoxia stole Jinghua's wedding dress, and it must have been framed by someone with a heart."

"Thank you." Qiu Xiaofeng cupped his fists.

"I just want to prove my innocence. It's not enough for others to believe a few words. I also ask Qiu Shaoxia to find out the culprit within ten days. Otherwise, even if the leader of the Demon Cult comes in person, I, Jin Sui Yi Ge, will not Back off half a step."

"Why does Boss Bai know it's a grievance, but still refuses to let the villain go?" Qiu Xiaofeng gritted his teeth.

"After all, Jinghua's wedding dress is very valuable. If you can't catch someone and Qiu Shaoxia is corrected by others, you deserve to have to repay the debt."

"The villain understands." Qiu Xiaofeng said again.

"Qiu Shaoxia calls himself a villain, Bai is really ashamed to accept it. In the past, Qiu Shaoxia might not have been so cautious and aware of current affairs, but he has made great progress in this way."

"Boss Bai was joking."

"Flowers in the mirror, moon in the water, and the bridge and embankment of the West Lake are broken in a dream. You don't have to worry about Qiu Shaoxia, the thief will come again. Then Qiu Shaoxia can catch him."

"What's the meaning."

"The bride and the groom can get married. How can there be only one bridal gown without the groom, and it is not very unsuitable. Therefore, there is also a groom's gown called Huan Shuiyue. I keep it personally, and I have never shown my true face in the world."

"It's just that I heard that there was no water moon in the world. The person who made the painting and design is dead."

"Who said that the flower in the mirror and the moon in the water were created by one person?"

"Isn't it?" Qiu Xiaofeng was horrified.

"Shuiyue was made by my father, just to match with Jinghua."
