Chapter Seven Hundred and Ninety-Two Strange Things Again and Again

On the other side of the attic is a small courtyard with a sycamore tree planted with lush branches and leaves. It is impossible for Ning Tao to stay on the roof of a girl's house in broad daylight. He jumped from the roof to the tree, and then stepped on a branch to the corridor on the second floor of the attic.

The door of that woman's room was on the side of the corridor. When Ning Tao came to the door, he hesitated again, and just broke into a woman's room. Is this considered a robbery?

If he could bring her back, it would be worthwhile to be a robber, but he knew that even if he rushed in, he would get nothing.

Just when he was hesitating, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind the door: "If you dare to turn over the room, you dare not enter my door?"

Ning Tao froze for a moment, then reached out and knocked on the door.

"Please come in." A woman's voice came from behind the door, the voice was clear and pleasant.

Ning Tao reached out and opened the door, and walked in.

The room behind the door is not big. There is a carved flower bed, a dressing table, a bronze mirror, and a few boxes of rouge and gouache. There is also an embroidery shelf, and there is an unfinished work on it, which is embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water.

She was standing next to the embroidered frame, looking only seventeen or eighteen years old, slim and graceful. Her eyes are bold and direct, giving the impression of determination. The mandarin ducks playing in the water next to her seemed to be her unfinished work, but Ning Tao felt that she was definitely not a woman hiding in the attic and embroidering.

"You know that I turned over the house, but you still dare to call me into your house, aren't you afraid of me?" Ning Tao said with a smile.

"Even if I didn't ask you to come in, you would come in, wouldn't you?" she said, not at all afraid.

Ning Tao smiled: "You are not old, but you are not too courageous. Are you not afraid that I am a bad person?"

Her brows frowned slightly: "I'm already eighteen, and my playmates of my age are already mothers, yet you call me young?"

Only then did Ning Tao remember that this was ancient times, girls could get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and she was still living in the attic at eighteen, and she was considered a "leftover woman" in this era.

"What's the girl's name?" Ning Tao asked.

"What's your name?" she asked back.

"My name is Ning Tao, how about you?"

"Zhang Xiaoqing." She said her name, and then added, "The word is Qingning, you can call me Xiaoqing, you can give me Qingning, or you can call me Miss Zhang."

Xiaoqing, that's Ning Tao's nickname for Qingzhui, he smiled and said, "Then I'll call you Qingning."

Zhang Xiaoqing said, "Don't you have words?"

Ning Tao said: "Yes, I... the word is not Sun Xingjun."

"Buri Xingjun?" Zhang Xiaoqing read out, and then laughed, "You are really a wild man, to have such a name."

Ning Tao awakened the state of his eyes, observed her and said: "Miss Qingning is also a bold person, you don't even know me, but you dare to let me into your room, you are not afraid of being caught by others." Have you seen your reputation ruined?"

Zhang Xiaoqing was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "I just asked you to ruin my reputation."

Ning Tao was stunned for a moment.

The turn was a bit steep, and the front of the car was bent.

His horoscope diagnosis is also over. She is just an ordinary girl with no spiritual or internal power. She is even a little sub-healthy, sitting and embroidering for a long time, her lumbar disc is a little protruding, and her eyesight is a little short-sighted.

He can easily cure her of these problems, but the time limit is less than a day, so it doesn't make any sense. And she probably doesn't care about these small problems, and she doesn't have any feeling that she will die soon after hearing about Taoism.

"But don't think nonsense, if you dare to move, I will stab myself to death." Zhang Xiaoqing grabbed a pair of scissors next to the embroidery frame and pressed it against her own chest.

There is good development there, plump and straight, very attractive.

Ning Tao couldn't help but smiled wryly. In the past time and space that he entered this time, he met strange people no matter what.

Strange thing? Just now he had the feeling that the faucet was bent. She said such blatant words but then picked up the scissors and pressed them against her own chest to threaten him. He felt that the car could no longer sit.

"Calm down." Ning Tao took a step back, "I don't understand what you mean, what exactly do you want to do?"

Zhang Xiaoqing said: "My father is a businessman. He delivered lychees and tea to Concubine Yang from Lingnan, but was robbed outside Chang'an City, and the money invested could not be recovered. Part of the money came from the bully's bank. I borrowed it, and the interest was high. My father couldn’t pay it back, and the bully asked me to marry him as his concubine. I would rather die than agree, because if you come to ruin my reputation, that bully might not marry me.”

Ning Tao asked curiously, "Then what should I do to ruin your reputation?"

Zhang Xiaoqing said: "You take off your clothes, I shouted loudly, and then you jumped out of my window."

Ning Tao: "..."

Zhang Xiaoqing said again: "The first time I saw you, I knew you were a knight-errant. You can fly to me from the opposite house, which shows that you are very skilled in martial arts. Please help me, little girl." I can’t repay you in this life, but I will definitely repay you in the next life.”

Ning Tao felt a tinge of pity in his heart, it was really unfortunate for a girl like a flower to encounter such a thing, but he couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw her solemnly and naturally write a bad check.

"If you fail, what are you going to do?" Ning Tao didn't laugh after all. There was really no way for her to make such a decision. If he laughed at her again, she would look heartless.

Tears welled up in Zhang Xiaoqing's eyes: "If I fail, I will hang myself here, please take my body out of the Anhua Gate and give it to a little brother to bury me in his yard .”

"What's the name of that little brother?"

"Zhai Wei, the name is Pingchuan, and the name is Qinglin Layman." When reading this string of names, Zhang Xiaoqing's eyes showed deep affection, but more of it was sadness.

Ning Tao remembered the name, and asked again: "Is he a scholar?"

Zhang Xiaoqing nodded.

Ning Tao said: "Okay, I promise you, you don't have to die, I will send you to meet your lover Zhai Wei, and I can even kill that bully for you. However, I have one condition, you have to satisfy me .”

"Satisfy you... what?" Zhang Xiaoqing's eyes subconsciously fell on Ning Tao's long-haired legs, and his expression suddenly became tense.

Ning Tao said: "Don't be nervous, I'm not the kind of person who takes advantage of others' dangers, my condition is actually very simple, tell me, have you ever had a strange dream."

"Strange dream?"

Ning Tao nodded: "Have you ever had such a dream, you heard a woman's voice, telling you to meet her, and then you entered a misty world, you walked and walked, and finally saw A woman in a red dress. You ask who she is, and she turns her head, and her head is a skull..."

"Stop talking!" Zhang Xiaoqing's reaction was very strong, she covered her ears, "Stop talking, stop talking..."

"You've had such a dream, haven't you?" In fact, based on her reaction, Ning Tao can be sure that she has had the same nightmare as that of Xunxian and the hanged widow, and that she is so intense at the moment. Judging by her reaction, there was even more to her nightmare!

Zhang Xiaoqing looked very painful: "Please don't say any more..."

Ning Tao was not willing to give up, he followed and recited aloud: "The gods will be wiped out, and the heavens will die, and there will be trees under the pagoda in the town. To find the ancestors, you need to die first, and there is a secret path between life and death. This is the prophecy you left , you also said that the time when the pill is round is the time when you and I meet, have you forgotten it?"

Stimulation intensifies.

"Ah!" Zhang Xiaoqing screamed suddenly, and fell straight on the ground, foaming at the mouth, her limbs twitching.

Ning Tao rushed up in a hurry, reached out and grabbed her wrist, injecting a little spiritual power into her body.

Zhang Xiaoqing's limbs stopped twitching in a blink of an eye, but her eyes looked very strange. At this moment, a golden light flashed in her eyes.

The golden glow was fleeting, but Ning Tao still caught it, and his heart suddenly became excited: "Could it be that she has a more complete Nascent Soul of Xunzu Pill and Pill Immortal?"

At this time, Zhang Xiaoqing said: "The time when the pill is round is the time when you and I meet..."

Before finishing a sentence, she closed her eyes and passed out. It gave him the feeling that she had exhausted all her vigor and strength when she said this.

He let go of her hand, and sat cross-legged beside her, with Avalokitesvara sitting in the lotus position.

He enters, Nascent Soul exits.

In the next second, he plunged into Zhang Xiaoqing's mind.

Static "photos" and dynamic "video" memory fragments floated in her mind.

He saw what she looked like when she was a child.

He saw how she embroidered.

He saw the way she dressed.

He saw the memory of her and her little brother Zhai Wei outing outside the city, and she was very happy. That little brother was born in vain, his face was like a crown of jade, and he was good-looking, but his clothes were shabby, so he could tell at a glance that he was a poor scholar. But in ancient times, there were not many stories about rich ladies falling in love with poor scholars and eloping with them at all costs?

Then, at last, he found the hidden nightmare, and he plunged into it.

There is nothing but the voice of the woman leading the way in the fog that covers the world.

Ning Tao approached her from Zhang Xiaoqing's first-person perspective, and finally saw her, dressed in red like fire, with long hair reaching her waist. Just looking at her back, she is definitely a peerless beauty.

Suddenly, she turned her head.

Ning Tao was stunned on the spot.

The skull face is still the same skull face, but there is an extra lip.

She said, "Are you here again?"

The lips move, and the voice is clear.

But Ning Tao couldn't speak, this was just Zhang Xiaoqing's dream.

"You've woken me up, I don't have much time..."

Ning Tao was startled, what did she mean?

"Remember, the time when the pill is round is the time when you and I meet." She said, then got up and walked into the depths of the mist.

Before, it was the dreamer who was woken up by fright, but this time she got up and left.

Zhang Xiaoqing's nightmare ended here, and Ning Tao was also ejected. He searched again in his mind, but couldn't find it again, and he returned to his own body.

Suddenly there was a loud noise downstairs.

"Bastard! You bastard, hand her over to me, or I'll break your dog legs!" A voice came.

this voice...

Inexplicably familiar!
