A Fairy Queen

Chapter 116 Guess the Riddle

"You two young ladies, do you want to pick some lanterns? Our lanterns are not only brightly colored, but also have innovative shapes. There are Magpie Bridge Lanterns, Cowherd and Weaver Girl Lanterns, and..."

"Boss, do you get a prize for guessing the lantern riddles?" Facing the boss's vigorous promotion, Ruo Shuiyue smiled gracefully and interrupted him softly.

Lantern festivals have always been held during festive seasons. Lantern riddles are pasted on all the lanterns. If customers guess three in a row, they can choose one of the three lanterns for free.This is a kind of fun, and it promotes the sales of lanterns in one fell swoop, so it is prosperous every year.

"Of course, you two have extraordinary looks. You can tell they are not ordinary people at a glance. If you two are interested, I welcome them very much." The boss said loudly with a laugh.Not for anything else, just to attract more onlookers, which will only increase his business.

While staring at the lantern for a week, Ruo Shuiyue suddenly pointed to an elegant Xingyue lantern and smiled at Xiahou Yexiu. "This, I like this..."

Looking fondly at Ruoshuiyue's bright smiling face, Xiahou Yexiu nodded. "Then start with this."

Hearing this, the boss came under the lantern, looked at the lantern riddles, and snickered.I invited Lin Xiucai, one of the four great talents in the city, to present these lanterns. You must know that no one has answered so far!

With a light cough, the boss said with a smile. "Then let's start! The topic is 'Okay, okay, today is finally over'. May I ask who will answer?"

Ruo Shuiyue smiled sweetly, but didn't make a sound, she just blinked at Xiahou Yexiu with her big eyes as beautiful as stars.

Seeing this, Xiahou Yexiu slowly opened his mouth with a sexy smile on his Apollo-like handsome face. "A perfect couple!"

Hearing this, the boss was surprised and praised. "I didn't expect that my son is not only extraordinary in appearance, but also ingenious! What about this lantern riddle?" The boss asked while pointing to the Weaver Girl Lantern next to the Xingyue Lantern.

Ruo Shuiyue fixed her eyes in the direction of the boss's finger, and saw that the lantern riddles were written on it - breaking the bitter dream is still holding the heart.

At this time, many people gathered around the lantern shop, and when they saw the lantern riddle, they couldn't help scratching their ears and raving their cheeks, unable to solve it.

Seeing that everyone was thinking hard and shaking their heads, and Xiahou Yexiu was also silent, Ruo Shuiyue couldn't help looking at him worriedly, and asked in a low voice. "It's hard, isn't it?"

"You think it's difficult?" Xiahou Yexiu asked with a smile without answering.

Ruo Shuiyue pouted her seductive red lips, frowned, and nodded. "Well...it's really difficult!"

Seeing her appearance, Xiahou Yexiu smiled brighter for a moment. "Stupid!"

Hearing this, Ruo Shuiyue's eyes widened, and her mouth pouted higher for a moment. "You, you are stupid! If you know the answer, then solve the riddle quickly!"

"One year old and one dry." Raising his eyebrows, looking at Ruo Shuiyue, Xiahou Yexiu said with a smile on his face.

After hesitating for a moment, Ruoshuiyue looked at him in astonishment.The answer is one year old and one dry?sky!Although he knew that this little lantern riddle would not be able to trouble him, the king of the country, but in the face of his talent, Ruo Shuiyue was still slightly moved.

"Excellent, that young master, the last question, 'The Lord of the Clouds, come and ask?" The boss asked after a surprise, pointing to another question.

"The flying dragon is in the sky!" Xiahou Yexiu answered without hesitation as soon as the boss finished speaking.

"God..." After the boss wailed, his heart beat faster.He didn't expect such an absolute riddle to be blurted out by him.If he kept guessing, wouldn't he be at a disadvantage?

While the boss was yelling, Xia Hou Yexiu's face, which had been smiling just a second ago, suddenly turned cold as ice, and the murderous intent in his eyes became more and more intense.

Ruoshuiyue was shocked by Xiahou Yexiu's sudden change.what happened to him?Wasn't it just fine?

"Yexiu, you..." Looking at Xiahou Yexiu's gloomy face, Ruo Shuiyue stopped suddenly as soon as she opened her mouth, her eyes widened in an instant.Not for anything else, just for the sound of the hidden weapon being torn into the ear.And judging from the harshness of the hidden weapon's sound, the hidden weapon's target was her.

As the sound of the hidden weapon approached, Ruoshuiyue's heartbeat also accelerated.In fact, it is not difficult for her to dodge that hidden weapon, but it is difficult. Now that Xiahou Yexiu is beside him, if he flashes as before, no matter his pace or agility, martial arts practitioners will see it at a glance. She knows martial arts.

At this moment, Xiahou Yexiu suddenly stretched out his hand, pulled off the wooden hairpin from Ruo Shuiyue's head, and flew the wooden hairpin in his hand without a moment's hesitation.

After hearing only a small collision, the tearing sound of the hidden weapon stopped in the air.

Hearing this, Ruo Shuiyue's hanging heart slowly let go.Then he looked at Xiahou Yexiu with a puzzled expression.

Without too much explanation, Xiahou Yexiu just said something lightly. "I'll make another one for you next time." After finishing speaking, he pulled Ruo Shuiyue and squeezed out of the crowd of onlookers.

"Hey, son, your prize..." Seeing this, the boss hurriedly took down the lantern and shouted at Xiahou Yexiu.

"I'll send you off." At this time, Xiahou Yexiu was still worried about some kind of lantern, and left a sentence coldly, and disappeared into the crowd like a moon in water.

Faced with Xiahou Yexiu's actions, Ruo Shuiyue is very puzzled.It stands to reason that it is not easy for the opponent to succeed in places with many people!But why did he take himself away from the crowd?Moreover, who is this other party?Why do you want to do it to yourself?

At the intersection, seeing Xiahou Yexiu and Ruo Shuiyue approaching, the four big black-clothed guards rushed forward to meet them. "Master?" But looking at Xiahou Yexiu's face, the four of them immediately realized something, and their previously indifferent faces immediately tensed up.

"Leave the crowd first, so as not to accidentally hurt the people!" Xiahou Yexiu just gave orders coldly without any extra words, and hurriedly walked towards a more secluded place with Ruo Shuiyue.

It was because of his words that Ruo Shuiyue's eyes on him changed a lot.Yes, I didn't expect a cruel tyrant like him to worry about the safety of the people.

In a remote bamboo forest, Xiahou Yexiu and the others finally stopped.

Turning around, looking at the end of the darkness, Xiahou Yexiu frowned, and finally spoke indifferently. "Stop wasting my time, come out!"

Just in the blink of an eye, dozens of killers in green clothes appeared in front of them, with a golden dragon and the word mellow embroidered on their chests.

Facing the dozens of killers who suddenly appeared in front of her, Ruoshuiyue didn't express much expression, but her big star-like eyes were full of displeasure.To be honest, she really didn't want to see blood on such a great festival!
