Spring River Flower Moon Night: Set of 2 Volumes

Chapter 13
At dawn, in the wild forest on the outskirts of Tokyo, a gorgeously dressed woman was sitting in the grass, holding a hare in her arms.

The sky was about to dawn, and a faint round of moon shadow hung in the western sky, like a listless eye, reflecting her slim figure.

Seeing her slender waist as wrapped in plain fabric and her black hair as black coal, she is a graceful beauty no matter what.But she turned around slowly under the shadow of the moon, and what she revealed was a face with a withered face, almost like a zombie.

She stared at her gray and white stiff eyes, and with a soft "heh-heh" sound, she bit the rabbit in her arms.The hare screamed and struggled endlessly, but couldn't break free from her shackles.

Blood overflowed from her lips, like spring rain nourishing the thirsty earth, her lips became plump and beautiful.

"Not enough...not enough..." She threw away the dying rabbit, stood up slowly, and walked deep into the jungle.She also needs more anger, fresher flesh and blood, preferably like the blood of the scholar she saw a few days ago.

In the dark woods, she greedily stretched out her dead branch-like fingers, sliding in the cold wind, as if she was stroking someone's smooth and young neck.

so wonderful!

This day Wang Zijin and Fei Xiao were playing in Tokyo again, there was still some time before the release of the rankings, they had been listening to operas and visiting night markets in the past few days, having a great time.

At this time, the autumn sun was shining brightly, and the wide road was full of cars and horses. Compared with the lively fireworks, the experience of the two days in the Gongyuan was really like a nightmare.

"The cars are like flowing water and the horses are like dragons." The prince sighed while shaking his fan for the rest of his life.

"Zijin, let's eat the Furong chicken you mentioned later, it sounds very good." Feihong said on the side, although the chicken is delicious, but it is lonely to eat alone, so he pulls the prince every time In and go.

Wang Zijin found that Fei Xiao's head was very dull. There are so many delicacies in the world, but he only loves chicken. It's really hard to understand.

"Fei Xiao, have you ever eaten anything other than chicken?" Wang Zijin decided to help him open up.

"Of course, there are also ducks and geese. It's okay if you take me to eat them."

He couldn't help shaking his head, thinking to himself that this person was hopeless.

He was standing on the busy street, racking his brains to prevent Fei Xiao from eating that damned chicken, but he heard soft words in his ear.

"My lord, I saw you from a long distance away. Why are you so leisurely after the scientific examination?" The voice was soft and charming, like a red crisp hand, which could touch people's hearts.

He hurriedly turned his head, but saw a small lacquered sedan chair was parked beside him, the windows were hung with bamboo curtains, and the appearance of the people inside could not be seen clearly, but there could only be one owner of such a soft and pleasant voice, that is the oiran Shen Xing.

"Dare, dare to ask the girl what's the matter?" Wang Zijin remembered what he saw that morning when he went to take the exam, and he couldn't help but feel panicked.

"Why are you afraid of me? Could it be that this girl will turn into a ghost and eat you?" Shen Xing saw Wang Zijin, opened the sedan chair curtain, smiled coquettishly, as if she had completely forgotten what happened that morning.

Under the bright sun, her skin is smooth and white, like creamy fat, her eyes are black and bright, and the kernels of her eyes are as beautiful as grapes.

"Auntie, are you looking for Xiaosheng for something?"

"When will you give me the word you promised me?" Shen Xing pouted, looking very dissatisfied.

"Ah..." Wang Zijin was frightened to the point of being shattered these few days, and then had a great time playing, how could he remember to write lyrics for her?
"It's a pity that I look at the prince differently, so you are just like those men who are heartless and ungrateful..." Shen Xing lowered her head and said sadly, her pitiful beauty is like a peony, which is heartbreaking.

Wang Zijin immediately forgot all that he saw that morning, and hurriedly said: "Miss, don't show your face, Xiaosheng will definitely write the best words and send them."

"Hey, don't I throw my head and show my face too little?" Unexpectedly, these words made Shen Xing unhappy, but fortunately she quickly concealed her sadness, and smiled at him sweetly, "Not with you Having said that, I still have to go to Master Shen's house to perform a song and dance, if you have time, you can go to the Peony Garden to join in the evening, Shen Xing will serve you with good wine and food."

After finishing speaking, she put down the curtain of the sedan chair, and the soft sedan chair was like a light cloud, and she left slowly. Before leaving, she glanced at Fei Xiao with extremely complicated eyes.

Seeing the soft sedan chair carrying the fragrant wind, drifting away.For some reason, Wang Zijin felt that the person in the sedan chair was very sad, and even the dazzling pink on the top of the sedan chair was like a mirage, blooming with illusory beauty.

"Hey! What should I do? I really have to go to the Peony Garden to make amends tonight." Wang Zijin's good mood was immediately discounted.

"Zi Jin, why does she always look at me like an actor on a stage?" Fei Xiao touched her chin and asked in puzzlement, "Could it be that you said something to her?"

"You are so charming and suave, she should look at you more." Wang Zijin said guiltily.

Fei Xiao arranged her long hair and white clothes complacently, as if she was quite satisfied with his flattery.

The two of them went to the Peony Garden again that night, and bought the best seat in the boat at a high price just like last time.Wang Zijin stretched his neck and waited for Shen Xing to enter the stage, while Fei Xiao was still lazily nestling on the cushion and eating fruit.

Everything is the same as yesterday, but Wang Zijin's mood is not as relaxed as before.

Shen Xing's alluring face and withered face intertwined in front of his eyes, and he couldn't be sure what the secret was behind this innocent and beautiful girl.

This time, Shen Xing held the pipa in his arms, and sat on the boat and played "Taoyao", the song was joyful and joyful, and the guests present shook their heads to the beat, and the melancholy in Wang Zijin's heart gradually dissipated with the sound of the song.

Then Shen Xing put on a fancy dress and performed a dance, but it was Chang'e flying to the moon. In the end, she stood in the shadow of the moon, her white dress fluttering with the wind, as if she was really about to leave the world and fly to the palace of the moon.

Especially that face like creamy white jade is full of loneliness, like dewdrops that are about to dissipate, it is heartbreakingly beautiful.

Then the climax of the whole audience finally came. She moved lightly with lotus steps, and took the bouquet handed by the maid, her mercury-like spiritual eyes kept circling among the spectators.

"It seems that bouquet throwing is a must-have sideshow in every game." The prince said.

"Huh? This is a newcomer. Shen Xing doesn't throw flower balls to entertain people every day. You can tell by the expressions of these people." An elderly businessman next to him said, "I don't know why, but this month Tossed twice..."

The prince swayed immediately when he entered the chest, didn't it happen every time?Why is there today?It must be that she made an appointment with me to meet tonight, but she couldn't think of a way, so she had no choice but to do so.

At that moment, he said anxiously to Feixiao: "I want that flower ball, and I will accompany you to the restaurant tomorrow."

Fei Hong gave it with a look, and the flower ball seemed to be caught by a hook, and it went straight into Wang Zijin's arms.

"Sure enough, it was the prince who caught the bouquet again. It's a waste of your skill not to participate in the Cuju." Shen Xing covered his mouth and laughed so that the flowers trembled wildly, his eyes were full of joy, and the servant girl led the two of them to the back garden with a lantern. walk in.

Arriving at the gazebo in the garden, one can see a table of sumptuous food and wine, which has already been prepared.

This situation immediately made Wang Zijin's heart surge. It seems that Shen Xing really has a good eye for him, otherwise he would not have met him in this Tokyo city several times. Now that his scientific examination is over, he prepares drinks and dishes to celebrate with him .

How should I repay a beautiful woman?

"Prince, don't be in a daze, hurry up and drink and eat vegetables!" Seeing that he was in a daze, Shen Xing hurriedly called him, and put a piece of vegetables on his plate.

When Wang Zijin saw it, his face flushed immediately, he didn't know what to do, so he had to drink a big glass of wine.

Don't say that Shen Xing is a monster now, he dares to marry even a skeleton.

"This Mr. Hu, I heard Mr. Wang said about you. Fate comes and goes like water. It is the same with men, women, and even animal spirits. If you indulge in it, you can only suffer from it..." Shen Xingban With an innocent and beautiful face, she untied Feihong solemnly.

But he didn't know that his face was full of displeasure, but he was very disappointed that there was no chicken in the dishes on the table.

"Well, Miss Chen Xing, this is a poem I wrote for you, I hope you like it..." Wang Zijin was so frightened that he wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and took out a flower paper from his pocket.

I saw a few lines written in lower case on it: bright moon, bright moon, shining so far away from people's worries.Young, young, carpe diem must be early.Spring, spring, still Qingmen Zimo.Long night, long night, dreaming in the shade of garden flowers.

It is actually a good word!
Shen Xing was very happy to see him, thanked him again and again, and under the dim light, he appeared to be smiling like a flower, full of charm, and kept pouring wine for the prince.

Wang Zijin only felt that this beautiful blessing came from the sky, he knew that he was only handsome and not rich, so he had never been favored by beauties.At this moment, Shen Xing's enthusiasm seemed like a pie fell from the sky and hit him on the head.

The two toasted and staggered, pushing and changing cups, drinking happily.

Only Fei Xiao looked at the two people with an ambiguous atmosphere with cold eyes, as if she had her own calculations in her heart.

"Young Master Wang will be on his way home in a few days, right? When we meet again, I don't know when it will be..." In the depths of love, Shen Xing raised his jade hand, took the wine and handed it to Wang Zijin. Some choked up.

"Xiaosheng has a heart, even if he goes to the ends of the world, he will never forget the girl." Wang Zijin's nose is even more sour. There is no feast that lasts forever. No matter whether Shen Xing is a human or a demon, she is really good to herself, and she is very kind to herself. Full of reluctance.

"If the prince is in high school in the future, just forget about Shen Xing from the Peony Garden. Shen Xing will always remember today's banquet. Thanks to the prince, he can be so happy."

"Don't be sad..." Wang Zijin quickly comforted her, "When I come to Tokyo again, I will definitely come to see you. I hope you will still be singing and dancing in the lake, and Xiaosheng will still pick up the girl's bouquet."

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Shen Xing said even more resentfully: "In the future, in the future, I don't know where I am, and the prostitutes can only be thrown into the prostitution..."

Wang Zijin couldn't help screaming that it was not good, and he said the wrong thing again.He didn't know what to do, when he saw Fei Xiao covered her face with her sleeves and sneezed twice in a row, as if she couldn't bear the smell of Shen Xing's body.

The two held hands and looked at each other with tears in their eyes, and the atmosphere of reluctance was instantly blown away.

The three of them ate and ate very happily, but they saw the servant girl guarding outside the pavilion running over in a panic and whispering something to Shen Xing, Shen Xing's face darkened immediately when he heard it, it was obvious that nothing good happened.

"Prince, I'll excuse you first." She blessed the prince and was about to leave the banquet.

"Where did I think you were? So you're here to tease the little boy." As soon as she finished speaking, a plump and coquettish middle-aged woman walked out of the moon gate. She was wearing heavy makeup and a multicolored skirt. A big dyeing workshop piled up all the colors in the world on him.

Shen Xing turned unhappy when he heard that, and turned his pretty face aside.

"Leave rich and powerful benefactors alone, but come to drink with these poor people, who do you think will marry you away? Don't dream." Looking at Feihong, it is obvious that the little boy in the mouth refers to him.

"How can mom say that? Has Shen Xing earned little for the Peony Garden in the past two years? I met a few friends recently, and they are about to part. Can't we even do a farewell party for them?" After listening to Shen Xing's words, the prince entered Only then did I know that this woman is what people often call a madam.

"Hahahaha." The woman laughed out loud as if she had seen something happy, "Human actors are ruthless, and prostitutes are ruthless. It turns out that I have a lover like you here. You should just let them go." It's gone!"

"Mom, if you are so ruthless, Shen Xing doesn't want to stay here for a long time, so why not leave with these friends, anyway, the silver I have earned in the past few years can also repay your kindness of nurturing!"

Seeing that she really wanted to leave, the madam softened her tone immediately, "Shen Xing, mother is just joking with you, don't take it seriously, I'm just worried that you will be cheated by the man." Leaving, the thick back seemed a bit helpless.

After being disturbed by her like this, the three of them felt a little complicated as they stared at the leftovers and cold wine.

"Miss Chen Xing, don't be sad, we shouldn't have come." Wang Zijin quickly comforted her.

"It's none of your business, who made me come from a brothel..." Shen Xing replied with a smile, but tears were already shining in her eyes.

Seeing her cry, Prince Jin really looked like a pear blossom with rain in spring, or like a hibiscus out of water. He was very lovable, and couldn't help feeling sorry for her, "Don't be sad, girl, I will definitely find a way to get you out of here."

"My lord, don't lie to me. Many princes have said this, but there is not even one who wants to take me as a concubine..." She cried even more sadly as she spoke.

When the prince heard this, his blood surged even more, "Don't worry, I will find a way to redeem you tomorrow."

"Is this true?" Shen Xing immediately stopped crying after hearing this, and bowed to the prince, "Shen Xing is here to thank you for your great kindness, and I will wait for you to come tomorrow."

When Wang Zijin saw this, he immediately regretted it, but the words had already been spoken, and he could not take them back anyway.Seeing that Shen Xing was overwhelmed with joy, he didn't dare to say any more regrettable words, he hurriedly looked at Fei Xiao, but saw him sniggering and didn't answer.

Just like that, he walked out of the peony garden in a daze, and the cool autumn wind further woke up his feverish mind.

"Fei Xiao, what should I do? Is Shen Xing's ransom money very expensive?" She is the chief oiran of Tokyo City, and she might not be able to pay for her ransom even if the tens of acres of land in her family are sold.

"Of course it won't be cheap, otherwise why hasn't anyone offered to redeem her for so long?" Fei Xiao watched the excitement while shaking her fan.

"But she has a deep affection for me, how can I disappoint her?"

"I still have a deep affection for chickens. When faced with delicious food, most monsters are full of love."

"Help me, where can I find a lot of silver?" Wang Zijin wailed as if he had never heard of it.

"I've told you before that she's a girl who looks like she's young, and she's young in an instant. Besides, she doesn't know if she's a human or a demon. You don't listen to the advice. What should I do if you're making trouble like this?" It was clear that she refused to help.

"Fei Hong, Fei Hong, help me, otherwise what can I do?" On the dark and silent streets of Tokyo City, the wailing of Wang Zijin was heard for a long time.

"I have a way. I can bring that Shen Xing out tomorrow without spending a penny." Walking to the door of the inn, Fei Xiao rolled her eyes, as if she had thought of some coup.

"There is such a good thing, let's talk about it quickly." Wang Zijin said anxiously.

"Hee hee, don't worry, just listen to my arrangement tomorrow."

It was night, Wang Zijin fell asleep with his head covered in peace of mind, and Fei Xiao turned into a white fox and went out, still with a smirk on her face, mysteriously wondering what she was up to.

He didn't bother to ask, as long as he remembered to help redeem Shen Xing.

In the early morning of the next day, when it was still dark, Wang Zijin was dragged out of the quilt by Fei Hong.

"Ah, why did you get up so early? Are you going to the funeral?" Wang Zijin asked in a daze.

"That's right, I'm going to the funeral, so hurry up and change into plain white clothes, let's go together."

"I didn't hear that you still have friends in Tokyo City. Was that what you were busy with last night?" Wang Zijin picked out a gray and white old cloth robe and put it on, washed it hastily, and followed him out.

"You have seen that friend of mine, you will know later."

Wang Zijin couldn't help wondering, Fei Xiao seemed to be the only friend, could it be that he was going to attend the funeral of another fox demon?Wouldn't there be a fox in the mourning hall?

The two were walking along the street, and they actually met a funeral family on the way. The paper money was scattered all over the street, and the crying was very moving. I couldn't help but hear that Wang Zijin felt sour in his heart. Life, old age, sickness and death, everyone can't escape , I don't know when, I will become a dead bone.

Just as she was thinking, Fei Hong stopped in front of her, "Zi Jin, we are here."

Wang Zijin saw two vermilion lacquered gates in front of him, and a plaque on them. The three big characters in water red were very dazzling in the morning light. It was the Peony Garden.

"Why did you come here? Could it be that Feixiao accompanied me these few days and got to know a good friend, so how can you think that girl has died?" He was thinking in a daze, Feixiao had already stepped forward and rang the bell. door.

A young man with a flustered expression ran to open the door, "Masters, please come to Peony Garden at night, it is not open yet."
