Doom Roar
605 burning incense surname
With the army of the Kingdom of Jin going south, a large number of rich households in Suzhou moved south, and there were countless vacant houses in the city. Xu Mo and Cen Biqing found an empty house with little effort.
This family obviously fled in a hurry, they just took away the soft things in the house, and left all the heavy objects like beds and furniture in the room, which was convenient for Xu Mo and Cen Biqing, even the money for staying in the inn was not enough. Saved.
Cen Biqing was still close to Xu Mo at home, but now that the two of them are alone, it is inevitable that they will spend a night together.
"Xu Mo, you might as well marry my sister."
Early the next morning, Cen Biqing was sitting by the bed combing her waterfall-like long hair, her charming face was still flushed, and her already enchanting and charming appearance became more and more beautiful. [
Xu Mo sat up from the bed, puzzled and said: "Qing'er, this sounds a bit cocky... It should be to marry you, right? What's your sister's business?"
"Where is it?" Cen Biqing put down the wooden comb in his hand, wrapped his whole body around Xu Mo's body with unimaginable softness, and whispered in his ear: "I am my sister's personal maid, if my sister marries someone else , I must go with her, how can I marry you? Unless you marry my sister, I can be the housemaid..."
After such a long period of jehu, Xu Mo has already discovered that Cen Biqing does not have a human heart like Bai Suzhen. She has not retreated from her demonic nature, and she does not understand the so-called love between men and women. Her liking for him is more similar to that of a pet towards its owner that kind of emotion.
In contrast, her sisterly affection for Bai Suzhen is much deeper than his. If Bai Suzhen leaves, Xu Mo dares to guarantee that Cen Biqing will definitely go with him without hesitation, and will not have the slightest nostalgia for him .
Because of this, Cen Biqing would rather maintain this kind of unclear underground relationship with him than to marry into Xu's family justifiably, for fear that it would be inconvenient for Bai Suzhen to get out when she leaves.
Being able to take the initiative to say these words today also shows that she is beginning to be a little reluctant to bear Xu Mo, although the reasons for this reluctance may be more complicated.
"Your sister... this is unlikely."
Just like being yyng with Zhao Foyou, who hadn't had any sparks in those nine years, Xu Mo's feelings for Bai Suzhen are only at the stage of a close friend.
I have to admit that Xu Mo enjoys the quiet and peaceful feeling when he is with Bai Suzhen, and Bai Suzhen's gentleness, purity and understanding also fascinates him, but the more he is like this, the less he wants to destroy this pure feeling now .
Just like the beautiful flowers in the valley, if you dig them out and bring them back to raise at home, the flowers will still be the same flowers, but the state of mind is hard to get back to the state of mind that was once amazing.
Of course, this kind of statement is too literary and artistic. In layman's terms, only those who can't get it are considered the best.
Moreover, all the girls in the family are almost all his wives and concubines. Even Zhao Fuyou, the nominal aunt, talks to him like a daughter-in-law. He really needs a friend who can talk to him on an equal footing from an objective perspective. .
"Why is it impossible? What's wrong with my sister? And she is yyng with me, and she also has a mole on her chest!"
"Uh...it has nothing to do with this."
Xu Mo didn't expect Cen Biqing to remember this incident, but this misunderstanding is really hard to explain.
Cen Biqing still did not give up, bit Xu Mo's earlobe, and said angrily: "You idiot, fool, have you never heard of preemptive action? My sister went down the mountain this time to repay her kindness, and now she has lost all her mana. If you don't know the whereabouts of the benefactor, if you wait for her to figure it out, there is a nine out of ten chance that you will marry him, and then you won't be able to see me..."
Xu Mo was overjoyed when he heard this. Others don't know who Bai Suzhen's benefactor is, but he knows it all too well. It is his biological sister Xu Xian'er in this world. Even if Bai Suzhen calculates it, both of them are women. Could it be possible to make lilies?
Just as Xu Mo was about to explain, he suddenly heard a commotion in the alley outside, and the footsteps of at least dozens of people could be faintly heard.
Xu Mo quickly put on his clothes and ran to the courtyard, leaped up the three-meter-high courtyard wall to look down, and saw a large number of men and women walking together with incense candles and offerings. [
After the group of people passed by, Xu Mo called Cen Biqing, who came after him, jumped down the wall while there were people in the alley, and chased after the crowd just now.
"Xu Mo, they are just ordinary people, why are you following them?" Cen Biqing was quite puzzled by Xu Mo's move.
"Today is neither the first day nor the fifteenth day of the lunar new year. There are indeed a large group of people offering incense. Don't you think it's qgu?"
With Xu Mo's reminder, Cen Biqing also felt something strange about it.
"Maybe... it's praying for rain?"
"It's almost the autumn harvest. Who would be so full and pray for rain at this time that they don't plan to live?"
Guessing is not an option, it just so happened that a sesame seed shop just opened by the roadside, Xu Mo went up to buy two sesame seed cakes, took the opportunity to talk to the short and fat middle-aged man who sold the sesame seed cakes, and said, "Brother, I'm from out of town merchants, they are newcomers and don’t know the local customs... Where are the common people holding joss sticks going? Is there any worship today?”
"Don't dare to do it. The neighbors call me Da Lang, and you can call me Da Lang as well." The short and fat middle-aged man who sells sesame seed cakes hurriedly returned the salute, and then replied: "Isn't there a plague in the city these days?" Most of these people have sick people at home, and they went to the ruined temple in the east of the city to burn incense and ask for medicine with incense sticks."
"Burning incense and asking for medicine?"
This statement is new. Could it be that besides the panacea sold by Wang Daoling, is there anyone else who can cure this toad poison?
This Dalang was honest, seeing Xu Mo's surprised face, he tried his best to explain: "I don't know, this plague has been raging in our Suzhou mansion for about five or six days, and the famous doctors in the city are helpless. From where came a wandering Taoist, known as the disciple of Patriarch Xuantian, who lived in the ruined temple in the east of the city, and opened an altar every day to practice rituals, and he didn't need money, as long as someone offered three times to his tablet of Patriarch Xuantian. If you stick a joss stick, you will get a bowl of talisman water. After drinking it, the plague will be healed. It is very effective. We call him a living god here..."
Xu Mo nodded secretly. Although it was somewhat different from the selling of panacea in the original book, this method of self-poisoning and self-curing is exactly the same. Presumably the wandering Taoist is the toad king Dao Lingsu.
But out of caution, Xu Mo still asked: "Dare to ask Dalang, is the Daoist surnamed Wang?"
"Wang?" The short, fat middle-aged man who sold sesame seed cakes shook his head again and again, and said with a smile, "Perhaps the little official has misunderstood the person, right? The Taoist chief's surname is not Wang, but Li, and his common name is Dao."
Li... on the road? !
Xu Mo's pupils suddenly tightened.
What the hell!Isn't Li Zaidao one of the four rich men in Qiantang?Is it a coincidence of the same name?Or... this guy has also recovered his previous memory?
This family obviously fled in a hurry, they just took away the soft things in the house, and left all the heavy objects like beds and furniture in the room, which was convenient for Xu Mo and Cen Biqing, even the money for staying in the inn was not enough. Saved.
