White Snake Demonstration Walk

Chapter 182 Su Zhen
Qiao Chenan untied the knot in his heart, only felt that the burden that had been pressing on his heart had been lifted, and his whole body seemed to be much more relaxed. He waited for a while on the broken bridge, but he couldn't find the figure he wanted to see. He sighed softly and turned to face the lake shore go.The grass is secluded, the trees are dense and the leaves are dense. After waiting for a while, I saw a row of old men mooring the boat nearby.

He stepped forward and asked, "This old man, can you give me a ride across the lake?"

The old man was wearing a coir hat and a wicker hat. After hearing Qiao Chenan's words, he raised his head and glanced at him. His old face changed slightly, and he asked uncertainly, "Is this Mr. Qiao Chenan?"

Qiao Chen'an was a little surprised when he heard this, and said, "The old man knows me?"

The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The young master is well-known, so I naturally know the old man." He waved his oars in his hand and said, "Sir, please get on the boat. How can I collect your money, old man? I will carry you Just cross the lake!"

Qiao Chenan shook his head and said, "Then how can I do it, old man, your life is not easy, how can I have the nerve to take advantage of you?"

Unexpectedly, the old man refused very resolutely, he refused to accept his boat fare life or death, Qiao Chenan had no choice but to give up, and then the old man happily invited him aboard, pushed the oar hard, and the boat left the embankment, Cut a wisp of clear waves and slowly drive to the other side of the money.

On a small hill beside the West Lake, two figures, one green and one white, are looking for the figure of the person they saw on the bridge earlier, but they can't find it after searching everywhere, Xiaoqing is naturally secretly happy , but Bai Suzhenyu's cheeks were slightly troubled, just in disappointment, her beautiful eyes swept across the center of the lake unintentionally, only to see a small black boat sailing slowly towards the opposite bank, and a slender and tall figure in Tsing Yi Standing on the bow of the boat with his hands sticking out, his clothes swaying with the spring breeze, it seems that he is looking into the distance.

Seeing this long-awaited figure, Bai Suzhen couldn't help showing a gleam of joy on her face, she tugged Xiaoqing's arm, and said joyfully, "Xiaoqing, look quickly, isn't this the young man on the bridge just now?"

"Ah... yes, right!"

Xiaoqing cursed in her heart, and glanced at Qiao Chen'an on the boat from a distance, with a strange expression on her face.

Bai Suzhen said to herself: "He's already boarded the boat, what should I do!" Xiao Qing who was on the side said casually: "What should I do, just fly over there!"

But Bai Suzhen shook her head and said, "No, that will scare people." Suddenly she raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Then let's have a rainy day to welcome guests!"

After speaking, the jade finger trembled, and while the mana was surging, the fingertip pointed towards the sky, and suddenly a stream of light that was invisible to the naked eye flew towards the sky, and disappeared in an instant.

In an instant, the sky above the West Lake changed color, but in a short while, a large cloud gathered and formed. The thunder rumbled, and there were electric snakes flickering between the clouds. There was a sound, and suddenly there were fine raindrops dripping down.

It was raining, and the whole world seemed to be hazy.

The raindrops fell like silk threads, and suddenly some passers-by screamed to avoid the rain, and rushed home. Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing stood on the bank, unable to use any magic power, letting the rain wet their clothes, but raised their sleeves to cover them, facing the The boat in the lake shouted: "Boatman, boatman! Please pull the boat to the shore, we are going to Qingbo Gate!" The voice was transmitted far through the rain curtain.

Qiao Chenan went back to the black tent on the boat not long after the rain fell, and sighed softly in his heart, he really answered that sentence, the sky was unpredictable, and it was just a clear and empty day, but the heavy rain fell as soon as it said, and what came was So suddenly, I vaguely heard someone shouting in my ears, and said to the boatman: "Old man, it seems that someone is calling you."

The boatman's old man laughed and said: "Old man, I'm quite old, why are you calling me? They are calling you!" Looking back, he said: "It's two big girls."

Qiao Chen'an's brows were slightly frowned, and he said with some doubts: "Dare to ask the old man, are those two people wearing green clothes and white clothes?" Excitement, like the first ray of dawn after a long period of darkness, is it really this moment?
The old man wondered: "My lord, you are right, the clothes on the two girls are indeed one green and one white, as if they are telling us to sail over there!"

Qiao Chenan's heart moved when he heard the words, and some strange feelings came to him. He stood up, took a deep breath, and said, "Old man, please move the boat over!"

The old man said hello, slowly moved the oars, and walked towards the embankment where he came. After a while, he heard a soft bang, and the boat had already docked. He said with a smile: "You two girls, get on the boat! The two are lucky to have met Mr. Qiao, if this boat is loaded with someone else, how can it be so easy to turn back."

Xiaoqing naturally knew who was sitting in the boat, and thought that this guy was not a good person, and secretly prayed "Qiao Chen'an must not be my sister's benefactor", "The one surnamed Qiao broke his leg while walking, and fell into the lake when he crossed the bridge. Bite your own tongue when eating" and other weird ideas.

Bai Suzhen said softly, "Young Master Qiao?"

The old man said: "The two girls are from other places. It's normal not to know Mr. Qiao's name..." Then he roughly talked about Qiao Chen'an's glorious deeds in the past ten years, and he showed extraordinary talent when he was in a private school , have been able to compose poems and recite pairs and so on.

The old man of the boatman spoke vividly, and a woman's slight surprise was mixed in from time to time.

Qiao Chenan was in the canopy of the boat, listening to the words coming through the rain curtain, soft and soft, like the sound of nature, at this moment, a snow-white jade hand lifted the curtain, and the two of them bent down and entered the cabin, Qiao Chenan saw The woman who always existed in memory.

She is dressed in white clothes that are as snowy as snow, not stained with a speck of dust, like a fairy descending from the sky, her face is so beautiful that it is difficult to describe it in words, there seems to be a warm and holy feeling between her brows, her pink lips are so moist, it makes people feel uneasy A little bit of blasphemy and disrespect.

But she seems to be the big sister of the family next door, kind and warm, seductive and charming, delicate and touching, these two almost diametrically opposite temperaments are perfectly integrated in one person, it is heart-stirring and falls in love at first sight , but it does not give birth to the slightest lewd ~ evil thoughts.

Qiao Chen'an's breathing slowed down a bit. Needless to say, he already knew the identity of the woman in front of him. Wasn't it the woman he had always been thinking about and wanted to see her beauty?Now I finally saw it, as beautiful as in the legend.

While Qiao Chen'an was looking at Bai Suzhen, Bai Suzhen was also looking at him. Although the man in front of him was not particularly handsome, his face was cut like a knife, his long hair was tied up in a bun, some fell down his shoulders, and he was dressed like a scholar. The Tsing Yi further accentuated his tall stature.

But the most eye-catching thing is his pair of eyes, which are as bright as the stars in the night, possessing the power to make the heart tremble, and the blindfold method that Huangfuxuan cast on Qiao Chen'an's eyes is even more difficult for her who is already in the fairyland. She was seen right away at a glance, and the pair of double pupils fell into her eyes without concealment, and she couldn't help being slightly surprised, how could a man with such a strange appearance be ordinary?

Standing behind Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing poked out half of her head, and looked at Qiao Chenan with disgust.

Bai Suzhen saluted first, and then said softly: "The little girl is disturbing my husband."

Qiao Chenan glanced at Xiaoqing behind her who was full of discontent, and said with a smile, "It's okay." Until he actually saw Bai Suzhen, the throbbing anxiety in his heart seemed to dissipate a lot.

As soon as the words were finished, Xiaoqing hummed, Bai Suzhen heard the movement, turned her head and said, "Qing'er, what are you doing? Hurry up and thank Mr. Qiao!"

Xiaoqing moved half of her body from behind her, reluctantly said: "Thank you, Mr. Qiao!" But the voice was weak, and a pair of black eyes rolled around.

Seeing Xiaoqing like this, Bai Suzhen couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. She always felt that Xiaoqing seemed to know the man in front of her. She was always lively and active, and she behaved a little strangely today, but she didn't take it to heart.

Qiao Chenan gave up a seat, and the three of them sat next to each other in the cabin. At this moment, Xiaoqing rolled her eyes and said suddenly: "This boat is too crowded, Mr. Qiao, can you go outside?"

Qiao Chenan looked at Xiaoqing helplessly when he heard the words, why does this dead girl always make things difficult for her, every time they meet, she will be targeted first, like a natural enemy.But what Xiaoqing said was right. The space in this cabin is indeed extremely small, and it seemed a bit crowded with three people sitting. After a short pause, he got up and got out of the cabin, walked to the deck, and opened his hands with a whoosh. Oil-paper umbrellas keep out the raindrops.

In the cabin, Bai Suzhen took a look at Xiaoqing, and said angrily, "Qing'er, what are you messing around with? Why do you want to drive her out? It's windy and rainy outside. This boat was originally rented by others. The two of us This is just borrowing someone else's boat, how can you be so anti-customer?"

Xiaoqing's cheeks puffed up when she heard the words, and she retorted stiffly: "Sister, I really want to test this person, don't look at his handsome appearance, what if he is a hypocrite who is not what he looks like? What if he takes advantage of you, sister! Be careful Be nice!"

Outside the cabin, Qiao Chen'an's hearing is so keen. After hearing Xiao Qing's words, his face turned black, and he secretly cursed at this damn girl!
Bai Suzhen was a little angry and said: "Xiaoqing, how can you say that?" She shouted out of the cabin: "Mr. Qiao, it's cold outside, come in quickly, don't get hurt by the wind and cold." But she couldn't bear it. I saw Qiao Chenan outside in the rain and wind.

Qiao Chenan turned back and got into the cabin, folded up the umbrella, and said with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness, miss. I don't know her name? Where does she live?" Although he knew Bai Suzhen's name and identity, he couldn't say it right away, otherwise it would offend the other party I have doubts in my heart, could it be possible to just say that I have traveled back from another time and space, and I have come to visit you, Mrs. Bai?Therefore, I can only casually say some questions that strangers often ask when they meet.

He turned around and sat down, glanced out of the corner of his eye, and gave Xiaoqing a demonstrative look. Seeing his appearance, the latter gritted his teeth angrily, and said: "Mr. Qiao, listen carefully, my lady's surname is Bai, Her name is Suzhen, and she lives in Jinguan City, Sichuan. After the elders passed away, the young lady had nothing to rely on, so she came to Hangzhou, and now she lives temporarily, temporarily... Qingbo Gate!"

Qiao Chen'an twitched the corners of her mouth, but saw Xiaoqing's sly smile on the corner of her mouth, and thought that this girl was lying in front of her face without even turning red. Bai Suzhen's maid made up such a lot of nonsense casually, because she was sure that she would not expose it.

Bai Suzhen said with a smile: "I made you laugh."

At this time, the hull of the boat suddenly shook violently, and the boatman shouted "sit firmly", and the bodies of the three people in the cabin shook for a while, and their bodies involuntarily leaned forward.

Qiao Chenan and Bai Suzhen's bodies collided together, and even separated immediately, but both of them blushed, Qiao Chenan hurriedly said: "I'm sorry." The faint fragrance of Bai Suzhen's body seemed to remain on the tip of his nose.

Bai Suzhen's face was reddish, and the original holy face was even more touching, she said: "It's okay." But she felt a little flustered in her heart, her heartbeat seemed to speed up, she had spent thousands of years practicing in the deep mountains , just to cultivate the immortal way, where did you have any physical contact with a strange man?

This trip down the mountain is only to repay the kindness, to end the cause and effect of thousands of years ago, and to seek the opportunity of immortality. She thinks that she has a firm heart and seeks the way wholeheartedly. How can you get out easily when you are really in this world of mortals?
At that time, I'm afraid she won't be able to help herself.

But what Qiao Chenan thought in his heart was that history really changed because of his arrival. For example, Xu Xian should be sitting in this boat in Japan now, but now it is himself. He originally wanted to go across the lake. At home in Qiantang County, who would have thought that they would meet Qingbai who also wanted to cross the lake by boat. Could it be a coincidence?

Through the gaps in the blinds, you can see the outside world slanting rain like flying, spring breeze like catkins, suddenly heard the old man on the boat sing: "West Lake is beautiful in March, spring rain is like wine and willows are like smoke. We are destined to meet thousands of miles away, but we are not destined to meet each other. It's hard to pull, but after ten years of cultivation, we can cross the same boat, and after a hundred years of cultivation, we can sleep together..." The voice traveled far away through the wind and rain, and swayed on the surface of the lake.

The atmosphere in the cabin was a bit delicate, Qiao Chenan lowered his head and stared at his hands, it would be a lie if he said there were no waves in his heart, he always thought that this day would come soon, but when he really saw Bai Suzhen, he felt a lot of confusion out of thin air, What should I do?

Bai Suzhen tilted her head slightly and looked out of the cabin, her eyes touched the rippled lake surface, and she felt a little uneasy. It would be fine if the man in front of her was the benefactor she was looking for, but what if he wasn't?There was a rare look of hesitation on the jade cheeks, and the beautiful eyes fluctuated, but for the first time, he was a little afraid to cast a spell that could peek into the past life.

The anxiety in Xiaoqing's heart was no less than that of Bai Suzhen beside her, but what she thought was, if Qiao Chen'an was really the one her sister was looking for to repay her kindness, how would she get along with him then? ?
I just thought of my sister's purpose of going down the mountain this time, isn't it to repay a kindness, even though this kindness has passed for thousands of years, it is difficult to erase it easily, but what about myself?Didn't I have been rescued many times by Qiao Chen'an, whether it was Aoyou Heijiao, or Ao Kun, the later prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea, without him, I would have died long ago!

So she also wants to repay his kindness, but how can she do it with her stubborn temper?What's more, Qiao Chen'an has bullied her quite a few times, so how do I count it?

The cabin was silent, strangely quiet, the only sound in the world was the singing of the boatman and the sound of the wind and rain, the three of them had their own concerns, the boat broke through the water all the way, suddenly there was a soft sound, the hull trembled slightly, and only the boatman said loudly: "Qiao Xianggong, two girls, the Qingbo Sect is here!"

　What is the custom of Chinese New Year in your place?
