stepping on the moon and asking green hills

In the evening, the kitchen delivered the food, and Bai Qiuling ate alone in the room. In order not to let himself be as cranky as he was all day long, he studied the sword manual while eating, and inadvertently ate a large piece of chili.

He raised his head and drank a large cup of herbal tea to relieve the spiciness. Amidst the hot stimulation in his mouth, he recalled that day when he accidentally ate chili, which came from Tang Yun's worried eyes.

That person disappeared after going out with You Shengyun in the morning. What kind of song is this that can be sung all day long?Where is the lock moon building?Who is that woman who came out of You Shengyun's room?

He was full of doubts, and the meal was tasteless, and he couldn't swallow the rice in the bowl after eating half of it, his mind was full of conjectures of one kind or another.

After he finished his meal, someone came to pack up his things, so he seized the opportunity to ask the honest servant: "Excuse me, do you know where the Suoyue Tower is?"

The honest servant was too honest, and he would blush when he heard the word "Suoyuelou". You need to go earlier, at this time, girls and boys are all being..."

The next few words seemed to be chewed and eaten by him, Bai Qiuling didn't understand a single word, so he asked again: "What did you just say?"

"I want to go early...the girls will have their own decisions..."

After saying this, the honest servant ran away with the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, almost stumbling into a pillar in the corridor, his head almost buried in the pile of bowls and chopsticks.

Bai Qiuling immediately blushed when he understood this sentence. Although he didn't understand the relationship between men and women, Tang Yun said it in his ear every day without any shame, and even read many scripts to him. He didn't understand. I must have understood a lot now.

After the servant left, he sat in the courtyard for a long time, waiting for the moon to climb up and the stars in the sky to shine coldly, but Tang Yun still didn't come back.

After falling into bed later, Bai Qiuling still couldn't figure out why he had to wait in the courtyard for Tang Yun to arrive at Zishi.

He folded his hands behind his head and tilted his head to look at the bright night sky outside.In the room he slept in, there was a small square window next to the bed. During the day, the sun shines through the window, and at night the whole bed is illuminated by stars and moons.He thought it was the moonlight that made him unable to sleep, so he turned over and slept outside.

He turned over and saw the moonlight pouring in from the windows on both sides of the door, spreading all the way to the bed.

Early the next morning, the breakfast in the kitchen was delivered to the courtyard on time, Bai Qiuling washed up and tied his hair casually. When he opened the door, he saw that the person who made him wait until midnight last night was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard reading a book.

When Bai Qiuling walked behind him, he didn't respond, so he glanced at the book quite curiously.

Just looking at it made him feel unhappy.Where is this person reading a book? This is clearly——

"Huh? When was Qiuqiu here?" Before Bai Qiuling could digest the displeasure in his heart, Tang Yun closed the book with his palms together and stood up, saying, "Come and have breakfast together, Mr. You came back late, I'm afraid I won't be able to practice this sword again today."

"The pavilion master came back quite late last night, why did he wake up so early?"

Although Bai Qiuling's tone was [-]% calm, he was still [-]% unhappy. Tang Yun looked at him, stopped holding the soup in his hand, and said with a smile: "I have nothing to do today, I can go to bed after breakfast."

"It's not a good thing to turn day and night upside down. The pavilion master should come back earlier next time." Bai Qiuling took the soup bowl Tang Yun handed over, took a handkerchief from the side and wiped the edge of the bowl, "Master You is young, and there are many things. I don’t understand, the pavilion master must not mess around with him, in case something happens—”

"Are Qiuqiu worried about me, or are you blaming me for not coming home at night?" Tang Yun laughed lightly, and when he reached out to hold the bowl, he took Bai Qiuling's hand in his favor. .

Bai Qiuling seemed to be hit by this sharp question. He froze in place, allowing Tang Yun to hold his hand and do whatever he wanted. He repeated a few times in his mouth before saying: "The pavilion master is busy day and night. My friend, I'm just reminding you a little bit, the Pavilion Master is too worried about blaming him."

Tang Yun nodded thoughtfully, lightly

He explained briefly: "Last night I took Mr. You out to practice footwork."

"Pavilion master doesn't need to explain to me, it was originally agreed between you and Young Master You, how to teach him is the pavilion master's private matter." Bai Qiuling said.

"Oh? What Qiuqiufen said earlier was——"

"Even so, I still can't ask too much about the private affairs of the pavilion master. I still have something to do, so I'll go out for a while." Bai Qiuling broke free from Tang Yun's hand and stood up, glanced at the book in his hand, and said lightly: "Young people's nature is inevitable. Playful, such a book pavilion master should seldom share it with Young Master You."

After he walked a few steps and stood at the gate of the side courtyard, Tang Yun put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, and smiled behind him: "Qiuqiu is not very old, so 'not playful', life is also boring."

"I've always been used to this. If the pavilion master finds it boring, then go to an interesting place."

When Bai Qiuling finished speaking, he had already walked out of the side courtyard. He didn't know the place well, so he didn't have anything to do, but he didn't want to stay in the courtyard and see Tang Yun, which made him unhappy for nothing.

It counted that he stayed in Ziyang for more than half a month. Except for the day he just arrived, he went around the town, and the rest of the time he stayed in Youfu, and he happened to be able to look around again when he came out today.

As soon as he went out, he saw a lot of people walking towards the outskirts of the city with baskets on their shoulders. They seemed to be talking about burning incense and praying for blessings.

It turns out that today is a temple fair in Ziyang Town. The old temple has been around for hundreds of years, and the incense is very prosperous. People who come and go come and go to the temple to offer a stick of incense. There are people who seek safety and marriage, and there is an endless stream of people.

Bai Qiuling had something on his mind, he wandered around the temple and went the wrong way, and stumbled into a deserted hall by mistake, there was a monk sitting beside the Buddha statue, meditating and chanting sutras.

He felt that it was a bit disturbing for him to intrude into this place for no reason, so he turned around and was about to leave, but just as he took a step, the old monk behind him stopped him like a bell.

"The benefactor wants to leave without asking about the cause, the effect, or the fate?"

The old monk opened his eyes and stood up, with a string of Buddhist beads hanging between his thumb and forefinger, and his cassock draped over his body, he looked at Bai Qiuling kindly, and said with a smile: "The poor monk's dharma name is empty, please ask the benefactor's name."

Bai Qiuling nodded politely, and said, "I am issuing Bai Qiuling."

"Benefactor Bai, when you get here, why don't you just ask for a lottery." Kong Ji smiled slightly, and greeted Bai Qiuling sideways, "Meeting is fate. The benefactor has something in his heart, and he has something in his heart. Ask for a lottery. The poor monk will do it for you." The benefactor released the lottery, and Xu Neng relieved his knot."

"How does Master know that I have something on my mind?" Bai Qiuling frowned slightly, walked to the Buddha statue hesitantly, lifted up his clothes and knelt on the cushion under Kong Ji's guidance.

Kong Ji handed him the stick, stepped aside, and said, "The benefactor is all written on the face."

Embarrassed, Bai Qiuling coughed twice, held the lottery with both hands and looked at it for a while, then asked, "How do I ask for this lottery?"

After burning incense, Bai Qiuling came out of the old temple with two red strings in his hands, his mind was still in chaos.

He can't remember exactly what Kong Ji said to him, but in the end he took ten taels of silver and put it in front of the Buddha statue as incense money, and then Kong Ji gave him two red ropes and said to him: The almsgiver asked for marriage, but he asked for it. An empty lottery, the fate is too shallow, the fate is too shallow!

What is the meaning of too shallow fate?He shook his head and put the red rope back into his sleeves, sighed and walked forward, just enough to take a step, a group of strong men came in front of him, bypassing him and rushing into the temple, there was another person he couldn't dodge in time, ruthlessly Hit him hard on the shoulder.

He patted his shoulder and looked back at the group of people aggressively rushing into the hall where he came out just now, and shouted: "It's that liar!"

"You still want to run?! Stop!"

"Stop! You lied to me for the incense money! I'm not afraid that the gods will kill you!"

"..."

There were still some curses, followed by the crowd chasing him farther and farther away, becoming unclear, he was stunned for a moment, took out the red rope, wrapped it around his fingers, looked at it, and said to himself: "So it's a liar. "

When he went to Qingcheng, Baimucheng prepared some silver taels for him as money, and

There are a few bank notes, although Tang Yun was spending money all the way, and I still have the money on my body, but right now I just spent ten taels of silver in exchange for an "empty lottery", and I still feel that I am too stupid , Walking on the road is also absent-minded.

He circled around and came to the vicinity of Youfu, planning to drink a bowl of tea and eat something at a tea shop.As soon as he sat down, he saw Young Master You running towards him from a distance.

Tang Yun said last night that he took Mr. You to practice footwork, but he didn't know if it was true or not—he saw Mr. You running towards him in a hurry, so he sat down and drank a big mouthful of tea, his face flushed, and he pulled his collar and snorted Panting.

You Shengyun managed to catch his breath and prepared to talk to Bai Qiuling. Bai Qiuling poured him another cup of tea. He looked at the teacup and then at Bai Qiuling. He drank the cup of tea first, and said, "Bai Daxia Why didn't you join us yesterday? Let me tell you, it's interesting!"

Bai Qiuling then smiled and said: "I don't have much research on lightness kung fu, the master of the pavilion is No.1 in martial arts lightness kung fu, you—"

"What light work? What are you talking about?" You Shengyun frowned, and then continued to fan the wind with his hands, "We didn't practice yesterday!"

"But the pavilion master said that you went out to practice footwork last night, and you didn't come back until very late..." Bai Qiuling held the teacup in one hand and the teapot in the other. Whether to pour tea or put down the teapot.

You Shengyun laughed suddenly, and said in a loud voice: "Where did we go to practice footwork! We went to Suoyue Tower last night! ——So Bai Daxia doesn't know? I'll just say, how can there be a man who doesn't want to go to Suoyue upstairs."

"Suoyue Tower..." Bai Qiuling mulled over the name in his mind, this was the second time he had heard it since last night, and he always felt it was very familiar, but at this moment he couldn't remember exactly what it was Where have I heard it.He put down the teapot and cups, and asked You Shengyun: "Is Suoyue Tower... that kind of place?"

You Shengyun chuckled, his bright eyes and bright teeth looked youthful, he hooked his fingers at Bai Qiuling, and Bai Qiuling leaned over to listen to him, and he whispered in Bai Qiuling's ear: "It's just a fun place, But the girls in the Suoyue Building are different from those in other places. They are very polite, let me tell you——Oh, forget it, it doesn’t matter if you say it, you have to see it, try it !"

Bai Qiuling heard these strange things popping out of You Shengyun's mouth, not only was he extremely puzzled, but his mind was also messed up, he couldn't make up his mind, so he had to ask again: "Try what?"

You Shengyun immediately exclaimed as if he had heard something appalling, and lowered his voice, "Maybe Bai Daxia...hasn't...huh?"

"What else?" Bai Qiuling asked again.

You Shengyun felt that he had really caught a strange object, stood up and looked Bai Qiuling up and down several times, and said: "Bai Daxia has been with Pavilion Master Tang for so long, and he doesn't understand this?——In this way, we Let’s not talk about it, tonight, you just go with me and ‘try’!”

Bai Qiuling nodded half-understood. Although he knew what Huanchang was, after all, he had been in and out of it before—it was Tang Yun who rescued him when he was drugged, but now he was very curious and decided to lock it up. What Yuelou wanted to find out was not this "rare experience", but the way You Shengyun beamed when he said those words to him. On the strange sour.

Ziyang is rich and prosperous, and the market is very lively, not much different from Dongjiang Town.Along the way, You Shengyun skipped here and there, but Bai Qiuling was full of preoccupations and lacked interest. He didn't look like a person who was going to have fun.Before he reached the gate of Suoyue Tower, he was still frowning. You Shengyun turned around and put his hands on the corners of his lips, forcefully forced a smile on him, and said to him with grinning teeth: "Hero Bai, why don't you smile? Seeing you like this scares the girls away!"

A girl next to him really followed his words, she took a step forward and stretched out her hand to hold his arm, but he frowned and backed away half a step, the girl's smile froze at the corner of her mouth, she was extremely embarrassed for a while.

You Shengyun quickly smoothed things over, where is Suoyue Tower?that's not just any one

Everyone can enter, he said quickly: "Don't blame the girl! This is the first time for our brother to come back, so it is inevitable that he is a bit unfamiliar!"

After hearing this, the girl naturally wouldn't continue to embarrass the two of them. When she heard that the handsome man in white was coming back for the first time, she immediately changed her expression and became more dignified. She saluted Bai Qiuling, and then warmly We greet each other with voices: "Young Master is a friend of Young Master You, so he is also a friend of Suoyuelou. Please, we can listen to the piano and drink tea."

Listening to the piano and drinking tea is naturally no problem, Bai Qiuling frowned, and raised his hand in return: "Please." You Shengyun followed behind him, and entered Suoyue Tower with him one after the other.

As soon as he entered the Suoyue Building, Bai Qiuling felt very familiar. He looked around the surrounding environment, flashed back to some scenes from a few months ago, and frowned immediately - this place is so similar to the previous one .

Tang Yun rescued him from the party that night. Although he was drugged and could not be seen clearly, the unique pink and white decoration of Suoyue Tower is really unforgettable.

He was engrossed in thinking about things, and accidentally bumped into a drunk customer, he nodded in apology, and then carefully avoided the guy serving the drinks.You Shengyun walked side by side with him, and while leading him upstairs, he said to him: "This Suoyue Tower is spread all over the north and south of the river, and wherever there is wealth, there must be—sorry, excuse me!"

The young masters blocking the stairs presumably knew You Shengyun, so they generously made way for him, and he took Bai Qiuling along the way, and quickly went up to the third floor.

Standing on the edge of the fence on the third floor, Bai Qiuling concluded that the last time he was in the Suoyue Tower, he made a "secret plot". The scenes of that day kept popping up in his mind. Unexpectedly, when I turned around, I saw Tang Yun waving a fan and chatting with a woman, chatting and laughing happily coming from the other end of the corridor.

—The woman put her hand on his arm.
