Chapter 206 Announcement of Searching for Sister
The sky is bright.
The main roads in Moye City are busy with traffic, and pedestrians and vendors crowd the streets.
You Su and Ji Lingruo walked in front, while Zi Yiyi followed behind them, like an observer with no emotion.
She is a little special today, she actually covers her face with a veil.
It is not to cover up the pretty face, but to cover up these resentful eyes.
She stayed up all night last night.
Although You Su and Ji Lingruo had restrained their voices as much as possible, Zi Yiyi was at the Ning Shui realm and her hearing skills were of no small importance. She could hear sounds that were inaudible to mortals.
And in that quiet night, some sounds were even more harsh than the mice in the hole in the wall.
What’s even more exaggerated is that for a while she could even hear the gossip coming from the other side through the wall. Correspondingly, the wall in the middle of the two adjacent rooms was shaking slightly.
The battlefield between these two people has spread to the wall.
This inn is well decorated and the quality of the pavilions is also excellent. Such a thick wall can shake, so one can imagine the intensity of the battle there.
This made her unable to concentrate all night, as she was preparing to think carefully about the mystery of the ghost mites and did not want to lose face as an examiner in front of You Su.
The way of dual cultivation is an evil way, and lust is the lowest desire in human beings.
Like many female nuns with conservative ideas and firm pursuit of Taoism, she firmly believes in the above views.
The half-hearted appreciation I had for You Su last night also disappeared without a trace.
Knowing that evil spirits are lurking in the dark, and still in the critical period of assessment, he can still indulge in physical pleasures and be unable to extricate himself.
No matter how smart such a person is, he will not be a sharp sword to eliminate evil. Because desire is the easiest channel for evil spirits to invade people's hearts.
Ji Lingruo walked a little weakly, but You Su looked relaxed and content.
The girl took the wolfberry, ginseng and black-bone chicken soup bought by You Su, her face flushed;
“Who drinks this so early in the morning?”
Unexpectedly, You Su bought two bowls. He took a sip in front of the girl, and said with a warm smile:
“It’s cold, drink it. Warm up your body with something hot.”
I think warming up is fake, but toning up is real, right?
Ji Lingruo pinched the soft flesh of You Su's waist in shame, she was still worried about last night's formation.
As everyone knows, this is because You Su has taken the Zhengyang Sword-Raising Technique as a daily practice task since he returned from Yuhuan Pond, in order to have this day. Otherwise, with her snake talent, she shouldn't have been so defeated.
"Then why don't you buy a bowl for Sister Yiyi?" Ji Lingruo took a sip of the soup, and then glanced at Zi Yiyi without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, You Su brought out another bowl of soup from nowhere and said with a smile:
“Sister Yiyi, you should drink some too. You didn’t eat yesterday, so drink some first. Soup mat."
Ji Lingruo stared at You Su in disbelief, as if saying:
Not a buddy? Why are you so good at carrying water?
"No need, I didn't do anything, it's not as hard as you two."
Zi Yiyi raised her hand to decline, with a strange tone in her words.
You Su was a little shy, secretly regretting that he should have learned a soundproofing technique.
Ji Lingruo raised her eyebrows slightly, snatched the earthen jar from You Su's hand and said, "It's okay if you don't drink. I'll drink two bowls by myself."
The girl was full of thoughts at the moment. My lover, although I want to see him laugh, I can't bear to see him frustrated.
Zi Yiyi responded silently, but how could Ji Lingruo really drink two bowls of tonic soup.
She casually glanced around the vendors and saw a ragged little girl not far away sitting on the ground shivering, but insisting on holding up a piece of paper with crooked writing in her hand, as if she was begging.
She carried the soup and walked towards the little girl: "Little sister, let me give you this bowl of hot soup. I bought it there. Remember to return the earthen pot after drinking it."
As she spoke, she also took out some broken silver and placed it in front of the girl along with the soup bowl.
The girl was about eleven or twelve years old, and her skin was a little rough. It was clearly not the depths of winter yet, and she had frostbite on her ears. However, it could be seen that the girl had a good foundation for beauty.
Of course she noticed the beautiful sister who delivered the soup early, and hurriedly said gratefully:
"Thank you, fairy sister! Thank you, fairy sister!"
Ji Lingruo smiled. Smiling, I thought that the little girl really knows the goods, so she became kind-hearted and continued to ask:
"What is what you write on this? Isn't it Wuzhouwen?"
The girl He lowered his head in embarrassment, "It's Wuzhouwen. I, I haven't read any books, so I can't write well..."
Ji Lingruo knew he had made a mistake and quickly made up for it:
"Sister is teasing you on purpose. Of course I can tell. Come on, let me take a look."
Ji Lingruo took the paper from the girl's hand and racked her brains to compare the words on the paper with hers. I tried to associate the words I knew, but unfortunately I still made no progress.
"Notice to look for my sister."
The girl said cleverly.
Ji Lingruo looked astonished, "Haha, I was also thinking about these words..."
"My sister's name is Qiao Xiuying, she was nineteen years old. , tall and beautiful, from Gu Village outside Black Rock City. He came to Moye City to work in July last year. He has not returned home for nearly a year and a half, and lost contact with him completely half a month ago. If anyone knows his whereabouts, there must be someone. Thank you very much.”
The little girl knew this notice by heart.
Ji Lingruo also didn’t expect that this girl was actually the biological sister of the previous oiran Qiao Xiuying.
Qiao Xiuying was sucked to death by ghost mites. In order not to cause a commotion, City Lord Xiang announced that Qiao Xiuying had been ransomed. The brothel woman did not want to be seen in public anymore, so she left in a low-key manner.
A courtesan is not unique to a city. Without Qiao Xiuying, there will be a more beautiful Cailing. So people don't care at all about Qiao Xiuying's disappearance, but this living life also has a family that cherishes her.
“What’s your name?” Ji Lingruo asked warmly.
"Qiao Xiuyun." The girl answered honestly.
"It's a nice name." Ji Lingruo smiled softly, "Xiuyun, how far is Black Rock City from here?"
"Black Rock City is located in the west by the sea. I don't know how far it is. I only know that I have been in the car for a long time." The little girl shook her head in embarrassment.
Ji Lingruo frowned. Zhongyuanzhou is a vast territory. She has walked the road from the sea to the inland more than once, and she knows how long and difficult this journey is.
"It's so far away, are you going to come to your sister alone?"
The girl nodded.
"Where are the other people in your family? How can you, a child, rely on you to find someone?"
The girl was silent for a long time, looking at the caring and sincere eyes of the fairy sister in front of her. , she finally spoke:
"Our family is very poor. In order to improve my life, my sister came to Moye City with others to work as a female worker last year. She sends money home every month, and our family's life has improved. Get up. I asked my sister to send less. She works so hard and it’s not easy to make money. She should keep some for herself. But half a month ago, she sent too much and said she found a good man outside. , I won't come back. I don't believe it. I want to come to see my sister, but my father and mother tell me not to come. The journey is too far and it will cost a lot of money. It's better to keep the money and raise me. I don't care about money. , I only care about my sister. Even if she doesn’t plan to come back, I still want her to tell me personally, so I stole the money and took a carriage all the way here.”
Qiao Xiuyun said. , she did not elaborate on the hardships along the way, but expressed her admiration and gratitude to her sister with firm eyes.
Ji Lingruo was stunned in place. She also had a sister who worked silently for her, so she felt the same way about this girl's obsession with her sister.
Naturally, she felt the urge to help the girl find her sister.
