Chapter Nine

The next day, the government indeed posted a royal list in various places in Raozhou City, which was basically the same as the news spread last night, but did not make Xingyan and the others happy.

However, some of the shortcomings are that the last article of this list states that Raozhou pine fruit wine is an extremely noble tribute and cannot be bought or sold by the people, and violators will be punished severely. This rule is not known as the original meaning of the imperial edict or the prefect of Raozhou who was thinking about the intention and adding it to it, but it was the young man in front of him who was preparing to resell pine fruit wine to make a fortune, and poured a scoop of cold water on his head.

However, the various taxes, money and food that must be paid every quarter are the biggest expenses in Xingyan's family. It is a great benefit to be lucky enough to be exempted from this money and food.

Somehow, maybe she drank a little more last night. Although Xingyan slept all night, she was still listless during the day. The face of Jiaona was always swaying in front of the boy's eyes. She couldn't let go, couldn't leave it away, and forced herself to forget it, but she still couldn't forget it.

When the sun gradually turned west, Xingyan finally couldn't help but plucked up the courage to take leave from Aunt Xia, saying that there was something to do in the evening and his family had to go to Poyang County to buy some items. Although this reason was very far-fetched, since Xingyan's flute art has been growing more and more, the flute music has been played smoothly and smoothly, and he is very diligent in doing things. Therefore, when Xingyan asked for advice, Aunt Xia did not make any trouble and immediately approved his fals.

As soon as he left the Flower Moon Tower, the boy went straight to Poyang County like a bird that had emerged from the cage.

When Xingyan arrived at Poyang Lake again a month later, the sun had already hidden in Shanyin, and the clouds in the west gradually lost their color. The moon wheel hanging in the east sky began to sprinkle its soft light on the light-filled Poyang Lake. Xingyan walked along the long lake embankment while listening to the sound of the water waves eroding the lakeshore. The soft moonlight painted a slender shadow behind him. Not long after, Xingyan saw the lake stone covered by the clear light. A month ago, the girl leaned on the bank of the lake stone, smiling at him holding up the rock. Now, the stubborn stone in front of her is still there, and the beauty is gone.

It was not until this time that Xingyan clearly realized that he missed Ju Ying so strongly - missing Jiang Tian Yunshui at that time, missing Wuji smiled at that time, and missing her... Qingyan's face with a slight smile.

It's exactly:

This feeling can be remembered, but it was already lost at that time.

Although he was full of melancholy, Xingyan knew in his heart that compared with Ju Ying, the daughter of Luoyang, Ju Ying, the daughter of Luoyang, there was one in the sky and the other underground. Although he fell in love with him when Poyang Lake was in danger, he still had a family lintel. If the two wanted to be together, it would be impossible for them to dream of the sky. What's more, now they are in the south of the world and the north of the water, and they may not even have the opportunity to meet each other in the future!

Facing the smoke and water all over the lake, the open-minded boy gradually returned to normal. Seeing the moonlight in front of him like a training, the lake like snow, and such a beautiful scenery, he still thought about these troubles! The boy who reappeared his smile went to relieve the jade flute snow behind him, and then outside the shadow of the weeping willows, beside the lake stone, a clear flute sound suddenly rose. The boy in the moon was so devoted and moved that it seemed that the jade flute at this moment was no longer just a simple music score, but a voice in his heart.

At that time, it was the clouds that were shaping the shadows, and the bright moon was everywhere. The innocent moonlight spread lights on the lake lights. The fishermen who regarded boats as their homes on the water had already set off lights in groups of three or two, and from a distance they looked like stars. The ethereal sound of the flute in the autumn night danced leisurely with the cool lake breeze, and sang like an elf in this quiet night sky.

The jade flute tells the love, and the fishing boat sings at night is a clear and ethereal picture!

...It's just a pity that such a beautiful picture was broken by a very inconsistent voice soon.

Let’s talk about the boy who was devoted to the sound of the flute, suddenly heard a angrily scolding from the girl’s house in his ear:

"Okay! I finally caught it! What a brave thief, he dared to come to my house to show off!"

When he heard the sound of catching thieves, the young man who was intoxicated by his flute opened his eyes quickly to see if there were any thiefs passing by. When he turned around, he found that in the shadow of the tree not far away, a girl who seemed to be pretty was staring at him angrily!

"May I ask, for some reason, just stare at me? Where is the thief?"

Seeing that the girl did not go to catch the thief, Xingyan was watching him here, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused and asked him politely.

"Hmph~ Don't pretend to be stupid anymore, you are the flute thief that I have been looking for!"

While hearing these angry words, Xingyan clearly felt that the girl who suddenly appeared in the moon shadow seemed to have become even more indignant.

"Well?! The girl wouldn't think that the flute was being pulled by the girl, right? It's absolutely impossible!"

The boy swears:

"This flute is clearly being lowered, but I wonder why the girl said this? Is the moonlight blurry and the girl misread it?"

Xingyan was surprised when he heard the girl calling him a "flute thief". He was surprised and couldn't help but become a little alert and his tone became quite serious. You must know that the jade flute in his hand was a guy who was eating, and there was also the gift from Yun Zhongjun. He regarded it as a treasure, but he didn't dare to make money by casually.

"What 'it's obviously down'?! The flute in your hand is clearly stole me! You dare to deny it~ I'll pay it back soon!!!"

The girl saw that the thief was caught by her, but when she saw the owner, she didn't want to give the stolen goods with both hands. She pretended to be stupid and as if nothing had happened, she even asked her in a stern way. She asked her again. You must know that this girl has always been the same, how can she bear this anger? She didn't wait for the "thief" to argue immediately, but she actually took it off!

Xingyan was just right in front of him, but unexpectedly, this girl whom she had never known was so arrogant! Before she could tell the difference, she rushed over and snatched his flute before she finished speaking. While she was speaking, the tail of the flute was tightly held by her! Although this girl Fang Shaoai was beautiful, Xingyan felt that the force coming from her hand was quite large!

Although the girl was fast enough, Fortunately, Xingyan was even smarter and immediately reacted; almost while the girl grabbed the flute, Xingyan also pulled it hard and snatched the jade flute back! In desperation, the force was too strong, and even pulled the girl into his arms!

"Oh~"

The person who pulls the flute or the person who grabs the flute never expected such a result, and almost exclaimed in unison!

However, the girl reacted very quickly, spat lightly, jumped away from Xingyan quickly, and stabilized her body. Perhaps because she had never encountered such a battle formation before, the unruly girl was speechless for a moment.

After this incident just now, Xingyan was also a little embarrassed. Although he was not blamed and he did not intend to do so, it was already very rude to make such a move to a girl's house. So Xingyan didn't care that his chest was hit and he quickly explained to the girl:

"Uh~ Please don't be angry, this girl, it was because I accidentally used too much force to pull the girl down; it wasn't that I deliberately pulled the girl into my arms..."

When he heard the apology that was getting darker and darker, the girl who was trying to calm down immediately became angry, and her anger was even more than before, and shouted:

"Shut up! OK, I didn't expect you to be not just a flute thief, but also a hateful thief!"

Although she saw the word "thief" in her mouth, she could not feel scared at all. Instead, she was eager to try it out, as if she was thinking about rushing over to grab the flute again.

Seeing this scene, Xingyan complained secretly! It seems that the year is really unfavorable. However, when he comes to the Poyang Lake to blow the flute and relax, he suffers from this unintentional disaster and is injustice. This little female demon who suddenly appears out of the way, he treats him as a flute thief. Moreover, after the fuss just now, it is even more entangled. Xingyan said in his heart:

"Forget it, as the saying goes, a good man doesn't fight with a woman. Looking at the current situation, it will be difficult to get along if he continues to get involved. I will still be the best way to leave for thirty-six strategies, and it is better to escape!"

After making up his mind, Xingyan said to the girl:

"It seems that the girl has many misunderstandings about this. Today, the boy is not inconvenient to explain more, so I will say goodbye first!"

Although he was polite, he seemed to be asking the girl's opinions very politely; but when he said this, he had already started to apply oil to his feet. When his last plea fell, Xingyan's figure was already two feet away in the girl's surprised gaze!

"Hmph! This thief is really lazy and wants to just slip away! Hey~ I still want to escape in front of this princess? Let's see my methods--"

It was impossible to tell that the little girl who called herself "princess" was actually a mage; she blew like orchids, her cherry lips touched up and down, and she shouted with a crisp sound:

"Ice, heart, knot, and settle!"

After reciting the spell, the little girl picked up her slender jade fingers and pointed at the "thief" who was trying hard to escape!

Unexpectedly, due to the surprise of this girl, her fixed spell, which had always been tried and tested, had lost its effectiveness for some reason today - the running boy had just sluggished his figure, but he continued to choose a way to escape like nothing happened!

Not to mention the girl's surprise, the young man Zhang Xingyan was running fast, and suddenly he felt that he had been tripped by something and almost fell to his head. Fortunately, he quickly stabilized his body and did not make a fool of himself. However, at that moment, the flowing water in his body seemed to appear faintly again.

"Ahem! The 'Taihua Dao Power' I practiced is really good! You can prevent me from falling... Ah, sneezing! ~"

Just as I woke up contentedly, I suddenly felt a chill and sneeze.

"Uh, it seems that it's a bit cold tonight. I have to add more clothes when I go back... By the way, I have to check the almanac. I'm afraid it's really not suitable for music today, and it's not suitable for traveling far away!"

Although there were countless thoughts in my mind, Xingyan did not dare to stop at all. He held the jade flute in his hand tightly, and immediately moved like a rabbit running all the way, fleeing into the dark night...

The young man who was concentrating on running away didn't know that the young mage behind him thought that the magic spell had just failed was just an accident, so he recited the spell and pointed his hand. Unfortunately, it seemed to be useless to the young man who was busy running away.

"Damn it! I didn't expect this guy to be so fast that he escaped so far in the blink of an eye. Yes, I think it was because he was too far away and he was not pointing the direction correctly, which caused the princess's immobilization curse to fail."

The girl who found a reasonable explanation, thought about it, but was angry again:

"Hmph! Look at this lazy guy, he is so quick, he must be guilty. But if he wants to escape from the palm of his princess, he can't even think about it!"

The cool evening breeze blew, and the girl's thoughts calmed down a little, but she realized something was wrong:

"Huh? This lazy guy is just an ordinary person. How could he steal my divine snow jade flute? Could it be that I took a look at him? He still has some origins?... Well, I probably won't. I think this princess's eyes are as wise as a torch. How can I not see it if there is any weirdness?"

The confident girl thought about it again, but suddenly thought of a possibility:

"Hmm? Is this matter related to grandpa again? But I have disappeared from Shenxue these days. When I asked grandpa, he said he didn't know... It's wrong! I remembered that grandpa always looked a little strange when he asked. It seemed that grandpa must have stolen Shenxue, the most beloved one of his precious granddaughters, and gave it to that brat!"

Thinking of this, the rude girl's nose turned sour and her mouth turned, as if she was about to cry. However, just as she was about to cry, she recalled her disrespectful grandfather. When asked about the whereabouts of Shenxue these days, she only pushed her deafness. Her ridiculous appearance of pretending to be deaf and dumb seemed to appear in front of her. So the girl was so angry that she couldn't help but feel a little amused and crying.

In the misty moonlight of this autumn night, the figure of the escaped boy had long been covered by the night and could no longer be seen; in the clear light of the cold moon, only this girl who was in tears was left, beside the shimmering Poyang Lake...
