no one knows better than me

Zhuang Qingliu raised her eyes subconsciously, facing a pair of clear and warm eyes.

There was something inexplicable in Mei Hua's eyes under the sunlight, she had never seen it clearly before, and couldn't help but move slightly in her heart: "Then you can't go back right away, you haven't bought me grapes yet ?”

"..." The emotion in Mei Hualan's eyes was swept away, and that indescribable expression appeared on her face again.

Zhuang Qingliu blinked: "Do you have this kind of grapes over there?"

Mei Siji randomly poked the pink flowers on both sides of the path with the scabbard: "There are no grapes in Meizhou in spring, summer, autumn and winter."

"?? Don't grow grapes? You don't grow grapes there?"

After Zhuang Qingliu was incredulous, he immediately opened his mouth and said, "Then I don't seem to want to go back with you all of a sudden..."

Before Mei Hualan said anything, Mei Siji immediately turned her head and complained to her: "What's wrong with our house? You won't be happy to live without growing grapes? Then where are you going?"

Zhuang Qingliu suddenly raised half of the corners of his eyes, and turned to tease her: "Don't you always think I'm troublesome, why are you reluctant to leave me?"

"Who can't bear you anymore?!"

After Mei Siji's voice rose a few points in an instant, it suddenly fell down, and said with an awkward expression: "Mr. Duanzhu usually doesn't talk much, but since you appeared, she has only talked a little more, and..."

Zhuang Qingliu's heart moved, and he glanced at Mei Hualan's side face lightly: "Huh?"

"This is the first time I've been out alone with her. In the past, except for the suzerain to ask her to take us through the experience, she never takes anyone with her when she goes out. Only Master Yan occasionally follows her in order to compile family history."

Zhuang Qingliu: "..."

That doesn't have to be so realistic.

Mei Siji looked at Zhuang Qingliu with deep meaning in his eyes: "So you must have had a good relationship before. Even if you live in Meiyu for a long time, no one will say anything, so don't worry."

Zhuang Qingliu put away his indecent smile on the brows and corners of his eyes, and looked sideways at Mei Siji for a while.

It turned out that the girl looked only fifteen or sixteen, young, and although she didn't usually say some things, she knew it in her heart.

Just when Zhuang Qingliu felt closer to the junior and wanted to steal another orange from her sleeve, Mei Siji suddenly glanced at her hand indifferently: "But what have I learned from this trip?"

"..." Zhuang Qingliu's hands changed, pretending to brush the dust off her sleeves, "Huh?"

"Obviously they all walked together, but which key scene am I there? Why don't I know the clues you know?" Mei Siji became more and more angry, "The most important thing is that things are not right now. It's over, I still have a lot of things I don't know what's going on!"

Zhuang Qingliu silently supported half of her head with her hands, and turned her head to look quietly at Meihualan.

But Mr. Duanzhu still persisted in his incomprehensible style to the end, he just glanced sideways at Mei Siji casually, as if he felt that children over four and a half years old don't need to be coaxed, and he can heal himself when he is angry.

Zhuang Qingliu couldn't bear to look directly at her face, and looked away from her face, and went online with a good voice, and said to Mei Siji: "The most important thing on our journey is that there is a time difference. On the surface, we let the boat float on the road, and secretly buy time Several conjectures have been verified, so you have been guarding in the open to attract attention, it is super important!"

Mei Siji half-rolled her eyelids, snorted and moved away from her three feet away.

Zhuang Qingliu went up to her and patted her head again: "What's not clear to you, what do you want to know?"

Mei Siji rolled her eyes back and forth, and asked in the most learned manner: "You only suspected Pei Xuan at first, why are you so sure it's him after it's dark in the cave?"

"I suspected it at first because Mr. Duanzhu said it wasn't me, so his finger spirit suddenly seemed very inexplicable. When Pei Xuan planned all this, he probably didn't expect that I would suddenly come back to life, so it was a mistake. It's a loss."

Zhuang Qingliu said: "Although accidents happened one after another in Shangzi Pei's fairy mansion, the barriers and barriers are not damaged, so who can sneak in quietly? Is it more likely to be an outsider, or an insider?"

Mei Siji said rigorously: "It's all possible, it's not enough to explain."

"Yes, so the second point." Zhuang Qingliu said, "When we entered the cave just now, many important disciples and disciples of the Pei family were standing guard outside, but when it was dark inside the cave, Mr. Duanzhu and Chuang were in an instant. When the people came in, there was a lot of movement inside, but no one came in to check outside for a long time, why do you say?"

Mei Siji suddenly thought about it: "If I'm not wrong, when you were at the mountain gate, you said in public that you found a clear clue. The voice was eliminated in advance to prepare for the silence later, and when they are already extremely alert, it must be a member of the Pei family who can do this."

After she finished speaking, she quickly turned to say: "But according to what you said about the instant benefits, the biggest suspect in all this should be Pei Yi, the second son."

"Yes, I was very suspicious of him at first, but what is the connection between Second Young Master Pei and the curse? Why did he lead us to Xuanzhou?" Zhuang Qingliu secretly listened to the conversation between Pei Yi and the housekeeper at night, Simply said, "The most important thing is that the saber he is holding is a light spirit sword with a width of three fingers, and when the cave was darkened to fight just now, through the sound of the saber hitting, it was clear that the person who was fighting with Mr. Duanzhu was holding the sword. An epee."

Also, if Pei Yi did what he did, he must have dragged it slowly afterwards, he didn't want the Mei family to intervene in this matter, and he would not take the initiative to summon the request, and he would find a way to destroy the layout of the spiritual cave. So well preserved.

In short, some people can be excluded at the first sight of meeting, Zhuang Qingliu didn't say much.

Mei Siji thought for a long time, and finally fell into deep thought: "How to explain the natal lamp?"

Zhuang Qingliu set up a pergola between his eyebrows, looking at the glittering Gui Palace: "Have you ever touched your own natal lamp?"

Mei Siji was puzzled: "The natal lamp is an important thing, and it is placed in the lamp pavilion on weekdays, how can it be easily touched?"

"Yes, you may not believe it." Zhuang Qingliu said, "I can extinguish my own natal lamp, but it is usually placed in the enchantment, and no one can touch it."

Mei Siji couldn't believe it, and turned to Mei Hualan: "..."

Mei Hualan just nodded: "Indeed."

Zhuang Qingliu said: "The natal lamp is a spiritual force poured in by oneself. Your own spiritual power can be injected and withdrawn naturally. Isn't this a normal thing?" She turned and said, "And if you kill the spiritual power The Lantern Man will die, so those who have an enmity with a sect don’t have to kill anyone, just find a way to take their Lantern Pavilion in one go, is that feasible?”

It's just that under normal circumstances, whoever has nothing to do steals his spiritual lamp from the lamp pavilion and extinguishes it.And with Pei Xuan's identity and the defense of Pei's Lantern Pavilion, whether he wants to change a spiritual lamp, or secretly extinguish his own spiritual lamp, it is not too difficult.

Mei Siji: "The summoning spirit..."

"From the beginning to the end, the 'elders' of their family talked about the summoning spirit. Did anyone else really point to me when they saw the summoning spirit? Who knows whose words the elders listened to."

Zhuang Qingliu winked at Mei Siji: "No matter how bad it is, just push all the unexplainable things to me. Anyway, I, a flower spirit, can 'know magic'."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a flash of light in the corner of her eyes, phantoms moved among the flowers in the huge osmanthus palace of the Pei family, as if someone was running away quickly.

Butler Pei Yujian, who had just finished his work, descended from the sky and landed beside the three of them: "I'm laughing, those are the three elders in our family who were in charge of summoning spirits back then. So you told the lie that the summoning spirit pointed to the blue lake, don't blame Young Master Zhuang, we will definitely give you an explanation."

Mei Siji: "..."

Several people heard the words and followed the light and shadow of fleeing, and saw a door of Gui Palace was suddenly pushed open, and the second son Pei Yi who had just left without a word strode out, frowning and leaning on the ground with a sword, and said coldly: "Don't chase, open the formation, fully open."

Zhuang Qingliu thought of something instantly, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

Sure enough, Pei Yi fell behind... For a long while nothing happened, the atmosphere was cold and awkward, and no one knew what happened.

"..." Butler Pei tilted his head slightly as if aware of it, and after glancing at the Qingliu of Plum Blossom Lane, he suddenly flew up inexplicably, and went after him personally: "Everyone, wait a moment, please stay with us."

But in an instant, the peonies in the Gui Palace of the Pei family became one. These three elders must have been well-cultivated members of the family, and they were familiar with their own skills. At that time, more and more disciples of the Pei family surrounded them, fighting People are turned on their backs, lights and shadows flash randomly.

The culprit of all this looked natural and expressionless, as if she didn't destroy the formation, and she stood still from the beginning to the end, letting the Pei family fight fiercely, she just participated with her eyes.

Really worthy of the style of internal fighting, Zhuang Qingliu hurriedly hid behind Mei Hualan, so as not to be knocked off his eyelashes by the flying sword energy.After a long while, seeing the blazing heat over there, she couldn't stop for a while, so she simply sat down on a jade tablet next to her, and looked up at the sun with half of her cheek in her hand.

After Mei Hualan looked down at her, she quietly moved a few steps to the side, blocking the sunlight falling on Zhuang Qingliu.

After two sticks of incense, the last person in the flower bush was overturned by Pei Yi himself, tied up coldly with a spirit-binding lock, and thrown down.Then the newly promoted Young Patriarch of the Pei family inserted the golden spirit sword back, and seemed to turn his head from afar to look in the direction of Mei Hualan and the others. After a little hesitation, he strode over.

"It's so offending just now." Pei Yi approached, and bowed his head to Zhuang Qingliu seriously to apologize.

Zhuang Qingliu raised his eyebrows, looked at him, and felt that the new young suzerain looked more decent than Pei Huang and Pei Xuan, with a hard outline and thick sword eyebrows.

She waved her hand, indicating no need.

Pei Yi hesitated for a moment, and asked to leave Zhuang Qingliu and Mei Hualan for dinner: "I will write down Mei's favors. There are many things that have not yet been settled and there is no time for a banquet, but there is still a light meal. Let's eat it by the way. let's go."

Mei Siji just said politely: "No guest..."

Zhuang Qingliu got up very quickly and walked towards Gui Palace: "Thank you."

……

Mei Siji looked at Meihualan, Meihualan seemed to acquiesce to Zhuang Qingliu's actions, so she turned around and walked over on the spot.

"..." Said it was a simple meal, after entering the flower hall in the palace, Mei Siji was a little uneasy about the dozens of dishes served one after another. It would be so extravagant. She seldom went out to banquets with her seniors in the past, so she was not used to it.

Zhuang Qingliu was quite used to it, and was very satisfied after eating again and again. Before leaving, he brazenly carried an extra basket of washed grapes, and threw them away to eat along the way.

"By the way." Pei Yi personally sent them to the mountain gate, looked at Zhuang Qingliu and said, "There are many people from the Hundred Families of the Immortal Gate who are waiting for the young master Zhuang at the foot of the mountain, and they will definitely not be good friends. You can take the path to the south. Avoid it a little bit."

"...What?" Zhuang Qingliu choked violently, and immediately asked in surprise, "Wait for me? Do I have a grudge against them?"

Pei Yi raised his eyebrows as if he didn't quite understand.

Mei Siji couldn't stand it anymore: "Do you think you are very popular? Don't say anything else, the secret realm and the fairyland were all destroyed by you one after another. Do you think you will not attract people's hatred?"

Zhuang Qingliu was suddenly suspicious - she knew that the secret realms and fairylands that Pei Huang had visited before, those places that were only for humans to hunt and raise spirit beasts, used to exist, but they have disappeared since then... But it turned out to be Did she kill it? ? !

"Is it really me?" Zhuang Qingliu turned to Meihualan, couldn't help blinking a few times, "That's... an accident, right?"

Mei Siji: "..."

After studying the expressions of several people, Zhuang Qingliu looked up at the sky silently: "Then what am I still living for?"

She used to think that there was something wrong with those people shouting, beating and killing, but now she understands that it has destroyed such a great benefit of the human race, let alone a flower essence, even if she is a Transformer Ultraman, she will be smashed to pieces and have no peace .

Mei Hualan stretched out her hand to hold her as always: "Don't worry, there will be someone else without you."

Zhuang Qingliu's heart moved slightly, he looked at her and then at the palm of his hand - I don't know why, every time this happens, it really feels very familiar, and it's really reassuring.

She raised her eyes a little, and quickly put the trouble behind her when she came here, and heard Pei Yi continue to say to Mei Hualan: "I heard that the fairy in the painting was subdued by Lord Duanzhu before. After this matter is over, I will Then send this thing back to the Mei family to suppress."

Mei Hualan just nodded slightly, presumably this is her usual style.

Zhuang Qingliu suddenly found it interesting, watching her expression, leaning on a flower tree to eat grapes leisurely.

Mei Siji reached out to touch it, but after she knocked her hand off, she turned her head angrily: "Is this yours alone?"

"It's mine alone." Zhuang Qingliu raised his eyebrows, "What credit do you have? You still thought I ate too much just now."

Mei Siji was so choked that she couldn't speak: "You...you just eat a lot! Our family will spend a lot of money to raise you in the future!"

Zhuang Qingliu ignored her, let Mei Hualan and Pei Yi say a few more words, then turned around and said goodbye, then stepped forward and raised his hand to feed her a grape, saying: "Let's go, Mr. Duanzhu, it's still the same as before. Same." She pointed at Mei Siji, "Take her sword away, you take me down the mountain directly, let her walk, we can also find an inn to lie down and rest for a while."

Mei Siji was about to die of anger: "Why haven't you forgotten?! Mr. Duanzhu wouldn't be like this!"

"How is it? Mei Pan, will you do this?" Zhuang Qingliu changed from walking forwards to walking backwards in front of her, and tapped a grape on Mei Hualan's mouth with great interest, looking at her eyes, "Didn't you still stand up for me just now, why not now?"

Mei Hualan suddenly held her hand and ate the grapes she had kissed for a long time.

"Hey, Mr. Duanzhu, why did you eat it?" Zhuang Qingliu deliberately teased her, "I still want to eat that grape."

Mei Siji beside him was so angry that he rose to heaven two times, feeling that this shameless person is not a flower spirit, but a vixen.

Mei Hualan's eyelashes flickered slightly, and she also looked into Zhuang Qingliu's eyes: "Then you suddenly drew your sword just now, are you afraid that my spiritual power will be temporarily suppressed?"

"Yeah," Zhuang Qingliu winked at her suddenly, and answered without being sloppy at all, "After all, it's Pei's territory, who knows what kind of moth they will make... Aren't you still hurt?"

The corners of Mei Hualan's mouth seemed to hook up uncontrollably, and she held her wrist to make her walk straight: "Stop making trouble, I'll fall later."

Zhuang Qingliu turned back following her lead, and turned to look at Mei Siji's saber: "By the way, do you have any good swords in your family, give me one too, I can use it occasionally. "

Mei Hualan seemed to be thinking about something: "Is the sword easy to use?"

After she said this, Zhuang Qingliu turned his wrist and tried: "It seems... It's a bit difficult, but it's okay!"

She said enthusiastically: "Anyway, if you can give me a pair like Pei Yi's, the shiny golden ones would be the best. If there isn't one, it's fine if it's studded with brilliant gemstones."

"..."

Mei Siji completely covered her ears with her hands.

There seemed to be an inadvertent softness in Mei Hualan's eyes, she just listened quietly and asked occasionally, the two chatted casually and went down the mountain to the riverside where the ship sank.

A fairy ship of the Mei family parked in the middle of the river again, looking like a new one.

Zhuang Qingliu blinked and asked, "What's going on? Does your family have a shipyard in Shangzi?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the bamboo curtain of the cabin was raised, and a boy wearing a silver mask came out from inside—Duan Bin.

The corners of Zhuang Qingliu's eyes twitched, and he immediately pulled the plum blossoms and turned around: "Mei Pan, let's go to the market to buy a grape vine and bring it back to plant. Will you buy it for me? Can it support me?"

Mei Hualan lightly swept over Duan Bin, and turned to her: "Yes, yes."

Zhuang Qingliu rolled her eyes: "You are so kind."

Duan Bin suddenly stretched out his hand to call, and recalled his spirit sword from Mei Siji, then stood up with the sword, followed all the way from behind, walked to Zhuang Qingliu and said, "Young master."

Zhuang Qingliu's face ached, and she turned her head to look directly at him: "What era is that called?" She tried to explain, "Well, it's no longer popular for us to recognize someone as the young master, but it's okay to make friends, Otherwise, change your name?"

Duan Binyin seemed to frown his eyebrows under the mask: "That's because you don't remember the past." He said seriously, "You are indeed the young master of Gumengchao."

Zhuang Qingliu: "Do I have to remember?"

Duan Bin seemed to be stuck in some kind of problem, and he didn't answer it for a long time.

Zhuang Qingliu felt that he was very awkward: "How about this, let me ask you - if I don't remember the past, will it affect my eating grapes?"

Duan Bin: "...No."

"Will it affect my eating?"

Duan Bin: "No."

Zhuang Qingliu: "Will it affect my food, clothing and sleep, and live a good life?"

Duan Bin thought about it this time: "...Probably not."

Zhuang Qingliu made a final decision: "Then don't be in a hurry to find out, the past is very heavy to hear, and it is unnecessary."

Duan Bin's thin silver mask flickered under the light for a moment: "But you are still the young master."

Meihualan seemed to have some considerations, and never participated in interfering with their conversations, but only glanced coolly from time to time.

Zhuang Qingliu felt very tired. He casually lowered his head and flipped through the grape seedlings at the roadside stall and asked, "Do I have to be your young master?"

Duan Bin: "It doesn't have to be appropriate, you are."

"Okay." Zhuang Qingliu didn't say much, and suddenly took out the money bag from Mei Hualan's arms, and said directly to Duan Bin, "Then you go."

"?"

Zhuang Qingliu took out the grape seedlings he was looking for in his wallet, and pointed at the plum blossoms: "Everything is about first come first, first come first, she is the one who wants to use me as a sword first, and then you want to use me as the young master. You can beat her first." Let's talk later."

"..."

Duan Bin looked at Mei Hualan's face, then at her sword, and after a rare long silence, he said to Zhuang Qingliu: "If you tell me to stay by your side, she won't object."

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Zhuang Qingliu said shamelessly, "I rely on my good looks, that is, my appearance and beauty, to live in Mei's house, and I will have to pay it back in the future. What do you rely on? Your cool mask ?"

Mei Hualan looked at her face following Zhuang Qingliu's words, and seemed to feel that she was really good-looking, so she couldn't help but hugged her waist, and then under Zhuang Qingliu's suspicious gaze, Mei Pan suddenly closed her eyelashes, Flying up, she took Yujian directly back to the boat that Jiang Xin had repaired.

Zhuang Qingliu: "Oh..."

Just now I thought the boss wanted to hug her waist... She really thought too much, how could it be possible for a dignified and polite person like Mr. Duanzhu.

As soon as she finished thinking, Duan Bin, who never left a step, followed immediately, so Zhuang Qingliu could only continue to say to him: "And I really don't really want to be with you by my side, do you have nothing to do with yourself?"

Duan Bin thought for a while: "Is there anything you need me to do?"

Zhuang Qingliu didn't want to break up with her at all, and after sitting on the bow of the boat and blowing the wind for a while, he said, "Okay, I need you to do something, so you can set yourself a small goal first, such as becoming the richest person in the world. "

Duan Bin: "..."

After a while, he asked, "This, how to do it specifically?"

Zhuang Qingliu squinted at him: "What else can I do, other than start a business, that is, go upside down and be a bad guy—it's more difficult to be a bad guy, so you can start by opening a stable store first?"

Duan Bin asked, "Then what are you selling?"

"You can sell anything." Zhuang Qingliu's heart moved, "Why don't you sell delicious food, huh? Good food, any snacks, as long as they are delicious?"

Mei Hualan glanced at her slightly out of the corner of her eye.

"Okay." Duan Bin was very happy this time, "I will open a shop in the small town under the Meijiaxian Mansion. I guess it will cost a lot of money, so you can give it to me first..."

"??? Wait, wait..." Zhuang Qingliu was suddenly surprised, "You ask me for money to open a shop?"

Duan Bin: "Then otherwise—"

Zhuang Qingliu quickly interrupted him: "Goodbye!"

As her words fell, Mei Hualan, who had been listening patiently for a long time, finally swept away the hem of her clothes, and flew Duan Binjia into the water without saying hello.

"This...uh, what." Why did it suddenly fall into the water again?

Mei Siji chimed in with a sour face: "Could it be possible that you only have to pay once for sinking my family's boat?"

Zhuang Qingliu quickly pretended not to see the big head swimming in the water, but quickly said to Mei Hualan, "I really haven't offended you before, have I?"

"..." Mei Hualan put her hands on her forehead and seemed to rub the center of her brows, "Come in, it's getting dark and it's cold outside."

Zhuang Qingliu quickly entered the cabin with a grape basket, and after sitting at the table and drinking a bowl of sweet soup handed over by Meihualan, she suddenly shook her purse and remembered something——the divination she made earlier was really true. not working?

This trip didn't seem to be serious, at most there were a few twists and turns.

Zhuang Qingliu quickly poured out three copper coins, twirled them, and asked Mei Hualan: "Mei Pan, is the divination technique in your Zangshu Pavilion good?"

Mei Hualan, who was pouring tea, raised the corners of her eyes slightly and looked at her.

"It's just that I learned easy numbers in the library of your house that day. I don't know if I didn't learn it, or this kind of thing is not very effective." Zhuang Qingliu asked again, "Do you know it?"

Mei Hualan looked at her expression and asked, "What did you divination that day?"

Zhuang Qingliu: "It's good or bad for our trip. The hexagrams show that it's very bad. We seem to be doing well?"

Mei Hualan didn't know what was going on, but the expression in her eyes suddenly changed slightly, and she asked again with certainty: "Are you...a good or bad trip?"

"What else?" Zhuang Qingliu tilted his head and looked at her, "Tell me quickly whether this kind of thing works or not?"

After Mei Hualan drew back her eyelashes, she said: "The records in Zangshu Pavilion are all destined, and they will not be born in vain."

Zhuang Qing circulated the small copper coins: "Then me?"

Mei Hualan was silent for a moment: "You can do the divination again."

"..." Zhuang Qingliu looked at her, since she had nothing to do anyway, after a quick thought in her mind, she really had another thought.

After a while, three copper coins in a triangular swirl landed on the table—an indication of good luck.

"Really?" Zhuang Qingliu raised her eyebrows, and quickly swept her hands away, "One more time."

——Good luck.

Zhuang Qingliu beamed with joy: "Come again!"

Mei Hualan, who had been silent next to her, suddenly pursed her lips, looked at Zhuang Qingliu's face several times, then dropped her eyes in time, and stared at the few copper coins again.

Zhuang Qingliu seemed to think of something while the copper coins were spinning, and suddenly looked at her: "Mei...huh?"

Her gaze suddenly stopped, and she blinked slowly... Only then did she realize that something seemed wrong.

"Mei Pan, why are you staring at this?" Zhuang Qingliu asked quickly.

Mei Hualan withdrew her gaze expressionlessly: "...it's nothing."

Zhuang Qingliu stared at her suspiciously for a long while, then got up suddenly, walked around behind Mei Hualan, and covered her eyes with her hands.

Plum Blossom Lane: "..."

"Come on, I feel your eyes are moving, don't move." Zhuang Qingliu patted the head of the person in his arms, and quickly made another divination.

It's not going well.

Let's have another hexagram-it's a bit fierce.

The last hexagram...became a big culprit.

Zhuang Qingliu finally stopped, looked down at the person in her arms for a long time, and then stroked her eyelashes with her fingertips a few times: "...so you have the final say on my good luck and bad luck?"

Mei Hualan's denial was hollow and unconvincing: "...No."

Zhuang Qingliu snorted softly in a nasal voice, rubbed Mei Hualan's face vigorously a few times, then approached her unexpectedly, and asked in a low voice: "Panpan, why did you use your eyes to look at my hexagrams last time? What do you think I was trying to predict?"
