wicked immortal

"never mind."

The girl just wants to prolong her life, and has no interest in peerless magic arts at all.

"Miss, it's getting late, let's rest early, the third princess will go down the mountain in a few days, let's go back to the palace early, in this poor mountain and remote place, I'm always worried." Aunt Six changed the topic.

"I'll sit still."

The girl returned to the painting, sat down, and quietly looked at the purple-clothed girl in the ink painting. The girl stood tall on the rock, with her blouse fluttering around and her long hair in the mountains and rivers, as if she was alive.

Aunt Six also stood quietly in a corner, sighing secretly.

……

the next day.

The autumn sun is warm and bright, and the cold wind at night is driven away by the warm light.

After the girl got up, washed and ate, she took Aunt Liu and two big men who looked like iron towers to Cao Shenxian's house.

Jingshan Town is not very big, and it only takes a few minutes for the girl's hotel to arrive at Cao Shenxian's house.

The four of them walked to Shenxian Cao's dilapidated earthen-walled courtyard. The two wooden doors at the gate of the courtyard had been smashed, and there was only one opening left. The four of them walked straight into the courtyard.

What the yard was like yesterday is still the same today.

The painted door panel was still placed on the dark square table, and on the charcoal stove, there was still the unfinished bowl of pig's head meat, but the charcoal fire had been extinguished, and the steaming pig's head meat had solidified.

On the ground, several wine jars were still lying on the ground.

"Zhao Yuan, Zhao Yuan!" the girl shouted.

"Don't shout, they have escaped." Aunt Six said with a wry smile.

"What! Escaped?" The girl had an incredulous expression on her face.

"Look at the pig's head meat. When we left yesterday, there was so much, and there was still so much left. This bowl was placed like this at the time, and the wine was not drunk. This shows that they cleaned up immediately after we left. Xiruan fled away."

"What the hell, he still owes me eight paintings!" The girl kicked over a bench angrily.

"The lady gave him [-] imperial coins, and he gave the lady two paintings, which are already equal to each other." Aunt Liu said with a smile.

"...Then...then...why did he run away?" The girl was bitter.

"Yesterday we scared him. Although he is a bit wild and unruly, he is just a scholar. After being tossed about by us like this, he can't stop running away." Aunt Six sighed.

"Hmph, I want to see where he escapes to!"

The girl snorted coldly, regained her dignity, took a look in the yard, and walked out first.

……

The girl Jing Shanzhen was angry and didn't mention it.

It is said that Zhao Yuan and Cao Shenxian drove non-stop in a dilapidated black-topped cart.

The two of them were already penniless at this time, but fortunately, Cao Shenxian had a good mouth, and told fortunes and divinations for people along the way.The two of them bumped and bumped all the way to the destination of the wagon: Beidu.

Beidu is the capital of the former dynasty, and it is rich in chrysanthemums, also known as Chrysanthemum City.

Jucheng has reached the north of the Great Qin Empire.

Jucheng, the northern capital, is a city full of flowers and brocades. The five-year Jucheng Flower Fair has become a dream place for literati.

It was the grand meeting held every five years, and the streets were extremely lively. There were some handsome young masters with long swords on their waists and folding fans in their hands.Some young ladies and gentlemen couldn't bear the loneliness of spring, so they invited their companions to the street, and the air was filled with the fragrance of women.

Of course, Deng Tuzi is also like a crucian carp crossing the river, slipping around among the women, causing screams and screams from time to time, and some chivalrous teenagers come to hear the sound, and a beautiful encounter is inevitable.

In a place with a wide street, there are huge crowds of people, like a tide, and deafening cheers can be heard from a distance.

Zhao Yuan and Cao Shenxian followed the flow of people in the crowded crowd, inquiring all the way, and only then did they know that they happened to be attending the Jucheng Grand Gathering that happens every five years.

As the flow of people moved forward, the two arrived at the place where they shouted, and only then did they see that the same huge platform was built in this wide place.

Talented scholars and beauties from all over the world gathered in Jucheng to dance, write, and show off their talents.

There are civilized poets, and countless young talents from all over the country, including poor and talented scholars, and luxuriously dressed princes and grandchildren.

The teahouses and restaurants by the side of the street are already filled with rich ladies of dignitaries and dignitaries. They are all graceful and luxurious, and most of them are usually out of the gate. The handsome and unrestrained talents glanced over.

Every Chrysanthemum Flower Fair, there will be many stories of talented men and beautiful women falling in love at first sight, which are passed down as good stories for a while, and this is the main reason why the Chrysanthemum Flower Fair is becoming more and more lively.

At this time on the stage, some students who studied hard in the cold window had a rare opportunity to show their talents in front of so many people. Every word of every word was sharp and sharp, and the audience burst into applause. .

Zhao was originally very interested in this kind of grand event, but he and Cao Shenxian were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs. Pay some money and have a full meal before watching the fun.

Heart is worse than action.

After the two agreed, they immediately squeezed out of the crowd.

When the two wanted to find an open space to paint, they found that the slightly empty places on both sides of the street were occupied by people, who were selling candied haws or sewing purses, and there were countless people selling calligraphy and paintings.

"Did all the talents of the Great Qin Empire come?" Seeing the calligraphy and paintings hanging everywhere, Cao Shenxian was dumbfounded.

"Even if not all of them came, half of them should be about the same." Zhao Yuan smiled wryly.

Most of the people who come to the Jucheng Flower Fair are poor students. Some come from far away, more than thousands of miles away. Most of the money spent is to sell some calligraphy and paintings as money. The wind, the snow, the moon, and the expenses are huge. Now that Jucheng is crowded with people, naturally they will not let go of the opportunity to make money.

Facing such a crowded event, some peddlers would naturally not miss it. As early as a few days ago, some peddlers took up seats on the street.

Zhao Yuan and Cao Shenxian had no choice but to find a vacant lot in a remote place, spread pens, ink, paper and inkstone on the spot and set up shop.

At this time, Zhao Yuan didn't think about painting any masterpieces handed down from generation to generation, so he just wanted to have a full meal, so he impromptuly painted "Struggling for Wonders and Beauty". This painting is a picture of hundreds of flowers. Although it is not the best, it is also appropriate top grade.

Cao Shenxian's confidence in Zhao Yuan was overwhelming. He thought that when Zhao Yuan painted, he would cause a sensation, and even put on a posture, but no one came, not even a look, and until Zhao Yuan finished painting, there was no one. People came over to have a look.

The bad things are not over yet.

After finishing the painting, the two confidently waited for the patron to come to the door, imagining that after taking the money, they would immediately go to the restaurant to chop up a large piece of food. , let the two of them down, for a full hour, no one cared about them, if it wasn't on the only way that the flow of people must pass, it could be described as empty.

Immortal Cao had no choice, so he had no choice but to go back to his old business, begged for a piece of bamboo from a nearby shop, and hung up the fortune-telling signboard of "Iron Mouth and Bronze Teeth". Within a distance of less than ten feet nearby, there were at least seven fortune tellers, blind and lame.

The most important thing is that those fortune-tellers all look very powerful, but Immortal Cao, on the other hand, has evil eyebrows and mouse eyes, with a dirty face.
