Chapter 143 Seven-fold yarn dance

John was not only the baptizer, but also the prophet in the hearts of the people. King Herod did not dare to take the risk of killing him, but finally compromised with the pressure of the people.

On the day he was released, she stood quietly behind the white stone pillar, watching the charming woman sticking to his arm.On the woman's hair is a string of garlands, which are still dewy, which are gorgeous and enchanting red roses.This is the only color left in her eyes, the color that burns like blood, it is really shockingly beautiful.

Wearing a colorful dance dress, she climbed up the steps, surrounded by clouds, like a rainbow in the sky; once again stepping on the long white jade steps with bare feet, she couldn't feel the familiar coldness.

This time, she went to celebrate King Herod's birthday.The honorable King Herod swore that he would give half of the country for her to dance.

With her flexible waist swaying gently, she stood and danced in the gorgeous hall, the colorful gauze dress passing by in the wind, and the golden bells on her feet jingled.With a raised hand and a glance back, if the fire and the phoenix are soaring in the nine heavens, all kinds of amorous feelings will spread out layer by layer, and the beautiful dancing posture will take everyone's breath away.

This is not dancing, this is burning life!It's really... a dance to conquer the country...

No one knows, and no one will know in the future, that this dance of... the seven-fold gauze dancing in the fireworks of life...

"I don't want your country." She looked at King Herod, her voice was calm and indifferent, and she said, "Please put the head of John the Baptist on a plate and bring it to me."

The king was very distressed, but because of the oath he had sworn, and because of those who were at the table, he commanded it to her.

She took the plate with a smile, and gently held the head of... John, who was still warm, as if treating a lover, and kissed lightly but madly on the red lips she had longed for.

She was as happy as a child, innocent and charming, and she said, "I have yours at last, John."

Excitedly, she began to dance again, holding the head in her hands, twirling and dancing obsessively.

Fresh blood continuously flowed out from the cut under the head, staining the colorful gauze skirt red, dripping in the white jade hall, floating in the air, sliding down, blooming, opening a room of enchantment, like a blooming rose, Red and evil.

"You crazy woman!"

Who, who is speaking?Salome stopped dancing, she raised her head, and at the end of the sky, she saw the woman who was said to like roses.

"You actually killed him! I curse you...I curse you to taste the warmth and coldness of human relationships, to suffer all the sufferings of the world, and never to be reborn!"

The woman disappeared, John's head disappeared, everyone disappeared, only the empty palace.She screamed in terror, she ran helplessly, but saw nothing, heard nothing...

The dim light illuminated every corner of the room. It was not a candle, but a pile of magic crystals floating in the air in disorder. The faint halo was not like the jumping of candle flames, but stable and soft.

Layers of dark green curtains lifted without wind, driving the stagnant air, unable to hide the luxurious but simple round bed in the center.A fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy was reclining on the dark ink bed sheet.The young man has a delicate and pleasant little face, but there is no trace of blood, it is almost morbidly pale, although it is not frosty, but there is a faint coldness that penetrates; the green eyes seem to be frozen. Even the charming long golden hair winding along the folds of the clothes can't melt away this coldness in the deep pool of ice.

"And then?" The boy raised his eyebrows and looked at the beautiful young girl sitting by the bed who somehow had recovered her original appearance, her voice was calm and unwavering.

The girl curled up lazily in the chair, her pale golden curly hair hanging down softly, twirling loosely around her fingertips; her blue eyes were full of childlike innocence, like quietly blooming daisies; The bare feet kept shaking back and forth, causing the golden bells on the feet to jingle non-stop.

This is no longer her former body, that fragile human body has long been weathered into ashes by time.The girl blinked her eyes cutely, and deliberately let out a soft laugh. She said, "Didn't you already guess it?"

"It's you who's telling the story." Blues turned his head to look at the girl. He did have some thoughts in his mind, but right now, he's just an audience, and he doesn't have the need or interest to make speeches, besides...

"Besides, you haven't said what I really want to know."

"What do you want to know? Or what are you doubting?" Salome obviously heard the deep meaning in the words of the blues. What he wanted to know might not be such a trivial matter as how he and His Highness Xiu met, but seemed to be Want to confirm something from it.

"You just need to answer, Miss Salome, I assume, we are now out of a transactional relationship, and I am not obliged to answer things outside your scope of transaction." Blues replied casually, maybe this will not be the case in the near future What a secret, but he didn't want this secret to be revealed from his own mouth.

Lan Tuo casually caressed her long golden hair, which was bound by a moon-white ribbon. It looked neat and rigorous, but because of the lying posture, the collar that was slightly opened was a bit more coquettish.He subconsciously twirled a bunch of them around his slender, long white, fair fingers and circled them. His half-drooped emerald green eyes were calm and without any emotion.

"Well, what an unlovable child, like your cruel and ruthless father, who likes to expose scars..." Salome complained in a low voice, aggrieved, and after a while, she felt a little bored when she saw that Lan Tiao didn't have any feelings of pity. She gritted her teeth and continued: "What else can be special next? It's nothing more than that the woman's curse took effect, and I was forced to be with that 'stingy, arrogant, evil, and indifferent , but the guy who is so powerful that people dare not even say a bad word about him' signed a series of unequal treaties, and since then began this miserable career of working for him day and night and indefinitely."

"...It's really tragic." Lan Tuo dryly echoed, unwilling to hit the girl in front of her who was already so angry that she started to grind her teeth by her sleeve.

Thinking about it, Salome also wanted to understand how the curse of an ordinary woman could take effect unless someone helped her. At that time, the only person who could do this was the mysterious man who had a relationship with her——Xiu.Listening to the series of familiar adjectives spit out from Salome's mouth, Blues finally realized her deep and strong resentment. In fact, no one would be very happy after being put together like this by others.

"Okay, next, let's talk about how you found out my identity?" Without any embarrassment, she let go of her drool-stained sleeves, Salome recovered from the endless resentment in an instant, and waited with a smile on her face. The reason for the blues.She thinks that her disguise has always been perfect, even the clothes and those weird words are imitated well, where is the missing stuff?

"Since you want to know..." Blues shrugged indifferently, "First, as a girl from a different place who has been trapped here for many years and cannot be seen by others, after meeting two people who are also likely to be outsiders Will the first sentence be an innocuous question like 'Are you guys kissing?' People usually ask 'Who are you guys and do you know how to get out?' The girl of the future, that is an existence that is not allowed by the law. This excuse is too bad. Of course, those weird words you made up are quite interesting, good creativity; thirdly, although I don’t know what method you used to hide The magic power in your body makes you look like an ordinary human being, but people's habits are hard to change, or it should be said that once the aura of getting along with people is formed, it will leak out inadvertently , and your getting along with us two strangers is too natural..."

"Ahem..." After coughing twice and clearing his throat, Lantiao smiled and said, "The last point, do you think my father and I would easily get along with strangers? So, after I knocked you out last night, deliberately Take your blood to confirm your identity."

"Uh... So, you actually watched me act with a smile in your heart all day today? What a bad temper... villain! You are a real despicable villain, and you will be punished sooner or later!" Salome said angrily. It became a little incoherent, and he cursed viciously in a low voice with puffed cheeks.

"Hmph!" The girl pretended to give Lan Tuo a fierce look, then turned and walked out.

"Salome."

The girl subconsciously stopped, and when she looked back, she met Shang Lantong's quiet green eyes, as if she forgot the unhappiness in her heart for a moment, she tilted her head slightly to express her doubts.

"Now we all know that the mysterious man is Xiu. You once said that his appearance is very ordinary, so have you ever remembered...or have you ever really seen...his appearance?"

Salome lowered her head in thought, and then raised her head after a while, revealing a smile of sudden realization.This time, it is no longer as hypocritical and innocent as before. With a simple and simple smile, the blues seem to have passed through time and space. Standing in front of the resplendent and majestic Babylonian palace, the empty hall paved with white jade Among them, a girl in full bloom and prosperity is wearing a colorful gauze dress, dancing barefoot, that dance that shocked the world thousands of years ago... the seven-fold gauze dance...

"So it wasn't a scheme, so he didn't intend to scheme against me in the first place?!" Otherwise, why would he deliberately appear in front of her?Is it to remind her?In my heart, it seemed that something that had been accumulated for many years disappeared in an instant.

Lan Tuo watched the girl leave, smiled faintly, noncommittal.

(Yohohoho~~~~~~~~~ It’s still early today... Hehe, don’t forget to collect the tickets and leave a message!)
