The sound of pipa clanging outside, as well as the soft singing of boat girls and singers from far and near, rippled in the tranquility of the misty lake at night. Apart from the sound of slow paddling, there were only occasional sounds of people approaching the water. The swimming fish stirs and stirs, causing ripples in the water.
There is a kind of desolate and lingering feeling of "the frost knife cuts through the bamboo without any fragments"; but it is also melodious and melodious like "the ice spring is whimpering and the orioles are astringent"; just when the two voices of the pipa and the singing are intertwined, it is quiet and melancholy, as if it has passed. For hundreds of years, things have changed, people have changed, everything has stopped, and my appearance has faded, and I feel worried and melancholy.
But it reminded Jiang Tian of the blind Ayun who was also famous for playing the pipa in Qingqi Garden. Since she was allowed to go further and join the life of the back house, the sound of the pipa she played also became It is much more cheerful and lively, and even has a hint of joy and nostalgia.
Especially her graceful posture, with only her eyes covered with black gauze, playing the pipa in the dormitory for fun; or it is full of maternal connotation, holding the disabled Ming Fei, shy and flawless on the bed; Jiang Tian suddenly missed Linghu Xiaomu who was not present.
At some point, the playing of the pipa outside became more rapid, and the singing sounds around her gradually became silent. Only the sound of oars moving in the water was left, and the singer from the lower deck of the boat sang with unique local songs. The gentle voice of the peasant whispers a softly sung song "Su Muzhe":
"Burn agarwood to relieve the heat.
Birds call out for the clear sky, peeking into the eaves at dawn.
On the leaves, the sun rises and the rain falls, the water surface is clear and round, and the wind lifts each leaf.
My hometown is far away, when will I go?
He lives in Wumen and has been traveling in Chang'an for a long time.
Do you remember each other in May?
A small boat, dreaming of entering Furongpu."
And Jiang Tian also put down the celadon wine bottle from which he was drinking, and looked up outside the gauze curtain; only to find that the moonlight was like water, and under the clear waves, there was only a hundred steps away, and a pair of two people were slowly passing by. There are several painted boats; but under the brightly lit lights, there is a complete silence on the boat.
There are neither those rowing slowly and the boat girls singing endlessly, nor the maids and boys walking in the corridor of the berth, serving dishes; let alone staying in the bow or stern compartments. , a musician who specializes in playing string instruments, playing silk and bamboo, or advocating for actors.
Just like this, quietly floating along the water in the night wind on the lake; he couldn't help but sigh, why couldn't he even have a rare moment of peace in private? The next moment, he was about to give the order to turn the bow of the boat to the shore. Just listen to a gentle and low female voice saying with light footsteps:
"I'm sorry to bother you, sir. Please try the chrysanthemum-flavored wine and red-rolled fish dumplings that we have newly purchased on board." Then, a maid wearing a white lotus skirt, a lotus-colored half-arm, and a tunic-colored blouse, carried a The tray with gold mother-of-pearl embroidery was pushed in through the curtain with a swaying figure, and the case was raised in front of Jiang Tian with eyebrows raised.
However, the moment Jiang Tian saw the other person, he suddenly felt that there was something similar about him. When the old memories flashed back, he couldn't help but blurt out: "Don't you think you don't recognize me when you put on clothes? Last month Duanpinglou of Pi let you run away, why did you come to your door again?"
However, after hearing these words, the maid, who was about to leave with her sleeves raised and her head lowered, couldn't help but raise her head to reveal a heavily made-up face. Suddenly, her face was full of disbelief and her whole body was trembling. She took a step back, and remembered something shocking again. He was shocked; then he gritted his teeth and knelt down with a plop and said:
"The noble man clearly knows that this concubine is only staying here temporarily. He will never dare to offend me again and has no intention of harming anyone. But if he falls into the hands of the noble man today, there is no reason to be lucky. I can only ask someone to show his noble hand, and
Let the other unsuspecting people on board be spared; I am willing to kill myself to redeem myself."
The next moment, she pulled out the hairpin from her bun and stabbed it into her neck with quick eyes and hands. In an instant, a line of blood spurted out and she collapsed to the ground. However, in the pain and daze, she
However, he discovered that he did not die on the spot, but was pulled up by a force while spinning around.
Like a dead fish, she was thrown heavily on a lacquered wood table with seaweed carvings; then the hairpin that was shallowly inserted into her neck was also pulled out and thrown aside; then there was a burning sensation like salt at the wound.
The pain made her scream uncontrollably, like a fish suddenly dehydrated.
But at the same time, the wound on her neck was no longer spurting out blood; instead, it healed quickly amidst the pain and swelling caused by pressing hard. At this time, her face was thick and thick.
The thick makeup was also washed away by the tears that could not help but flow out.
Immediately, her original face was revealed; it was the female assassin who had tried to sneak into Tangquan Street to assassinate Jiang Tian in Chengxiafang Tangquan Street near Longmen Mountain in Luodu. Then, she heard Jiang Tian say in a meaningful tone
: "It wouldn't be cheap to just die like this."
"At least, you have to tell me personally, the inside story of the organization behind you, and which instigator you were ordered by? Otherwise, as for the lives of the people on the ship, can you just say that you have nothing to do with it and be able to get rid of it? Just say that you have nothing to do with it.
It is a case of protecting a fugitive criminal, and everyone will be held responsible."
The next moment, Jiang Tian saw this woman, struggling and rolling in front of him, and shouted in a hoarse and humble voice: "I am just a humble concubine, and I only ask that I don't involve everyone on the ship; I was so humble back then."
He was chased to death several times, but fortunately he was taken in and treated on the ship, so he can no longer retaliate for kindness."
"Okay, then let me see your sincerity?" Jiang Tian said with some surprise: "Look, what are you willing to do to repay these benefactors?" The next moment, he saw this man.
The woman approached him without hesitation, opened her mouth and bit down on the belt buckle.
"...What are you thinking about!" Then, Jiang Tian instinctively kicked him away, and said with some embarrassment: "Relax your whole body, concentrate, but don't have any thoughts of resistance." The next moment, Jiang Tian stretched out his hand and pressed the button.
It landed on her forehead and disappeared instantly after touching it for a moment.
There were only skirts and coats scattered on the ground, as well as hairpins, armbands and other scattered accessories; and in the "dimensional bubble" space that Jiang Tian looked at inside, there were large and small bubbles floating on the water.
; There is a new empty bubble, a beautiful white female body curled up like a newborn baby.
Well, at least it seems that the evolved "dimensional bubble" template can be loaded into living creatures in this time and space without any problem. Then, Jiang Tian looked outside the window screen, but found that the dead boat was already close to
Within thirty steps; the ship was also alarmed.
Someone started calling and greetings from a distance. After receiving no response, a small boat was put down at the stern of the boat and rowed towards the dead boat. After a while, continuous exclamations suddenly sounded after boarding the boat, and then, again
It turned into a figure stumbling and rushing back.
Someone else lost his footing and fell into the water with a plop. Then, the voice of the lady in charge of the boat was also heard from downstairs: "Please forgive me for being rude and disturbing the nobles, but it is the familiar flower boat that is approaching. It seems that there is something wrong."
I have done something that has caused some trouble, so I would like to invite you to come down and talk about it."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Tian suddenly took action and patted the seemingly calm water surface; a large splash of water suddenly exploded; like a frightened fish, he suddenly stirred up two people wearing clothes.
A figure wearing a gray short coat and fish skin, wearing a pale mask.
He twisted his body violently in the air, suddenly waved his hand and shot out two hook-like objects, which were nailed to the edge of the ship's balcony with a loud noise; he was about to pull and climb over. However, Jiang Tian waved his hands from left to right again,
It flew up like a top with a crackling sound in the air.
In an instant, his own hook was wrapped around him, and his skin was torn and his flesh was torn and blood was everywhere; he was dragged like a rice dumpling in the water. However, at the bow and stern of the boat, screams and screams rang out at the same time.
Someone else snorkeled from the water, boarded the ship, and started attacking everyone who witnessed it.
However, at the next moment, two bright streams of light suddenly flashed, and those who climbed onto the boat, brandishing weapons and trying to kill the stabbing attackers, suddenly made a move; then they fell into pieces and disintegrated into pieces.
There were broken limbs and broken bodies in a pool of blood on the ground. Only a few people barely escaped.
Then he turned around and rushed into the water without hesitation, but he couldn't escape the flash of light that followed Wuxia into the water; he was penetrated through the body amidst the continuous screams, and his hands and feet were cut off; along with the large tumbling blood,
Surfaced; and then was ingested half-dead from the air and onto the slipway.
