C263 Xiao Xiao Left
Aunt Mei led Lin Yue and Ning'er towards the backyard.
Rainbow slept in Lin Yue's pocket. She was not interested in these things.
Lin Yue blinked his eyes. Su Xiaoxiao was the head of this shop in the past and now was the perfect time to do business. Why was she in the backyard?
After passing through a bamboo forest, the whole world became quiet. It was as if this bamboo block blocked the noise of the tall building in front of them.
Gradually, the sound of the zither was heard. It was clear and bright, elegant and distant.
It was like a stream from a deep valley, flowing quietly. It flowed through the wrinkles of life, passing through the twists and turns of time. It saw through the blind eyes of the mortal world, quietly flowing.
It was as if a clear spring had passed through his heart. His voice was not dry, and his appearance was long and endless. It was clear and cute, just like the sound of metal and stone, the sound of bells ringing in the wind.
Lin Yue stopped in his tracks for a moment, calmly listening. Only when he finished a song did he slowly move forward.
"Xiaoxiao, someone came to see you." The beautiful aunt pushed open a wooden door. The things inside were very simple, but they were very clean.
Lin Yue saw a woman in plain clothes with a face cloth on her head and slender fingers sitting in front of an ancient zither.
In the entire room, this ancient zither was the most valuable.
In the past, Su Xiaoxiao's room was filled with jade carvings and famous calligraphy and paintings.
"Young Master Lin!" The woman said in surprise, as if she couldn't believe it.
"Miss Su still remembers me. It is my great honor." Lin Yue said.
"You guys chat slowly. I will go to work first." After saying that, Aunt Mei left in a hurry.
Lin Yue sat on a wooden stool and was silent for a while.
"This is?" Su Xiaoxiao looked at Lan Ning'er.
"I am his brother." Lan Ning'er said first.
She disguised herself as a man and deliberately used a fake voice. They were all well-behaved.
"Miss Su, you..." Lin Yue was indeed very curious about what she had experienced all these years.
She had actually been reduced to such a state by a mere Courtesan Belle.
However, the most precious thing was that her tone was still as indifferent as before. There was not much sadness in her voice. The sound of her zither was also elegant and indifferent, not sad or sad.
Moreover, she was still a virgin. She was not abandoned after being toyed with.
Su Xiaoxiao laughed lightly, "It is all in the past. It is not a big deal to talk about it. It is just that I am afraid of scaring Young Master."
As she spoke, she gently took off her veil. Her face was covered with burns and it looked very ugly.
"How could it be like this?" Lin Yue frowned.
"Actually, it's not anything else. Does Young Master remember Sima Pengyu?" Su Xiaoxiao put on the veil again, afraid that Lin Yue and Lan Ning'er would not feel comfortable looking at it.
Lan Ning'er raised her eyebrows. Sima Pengyu was her cousin. They grew up together and were very close.
It was just that when Sima Pengyu proposed marriage to Lan Ning'er, he was rejected.
After he returned to the Sima family, his father, the patriarch, knew that Baimu Hen was dead, so he no longer allowed him to propose marriage to Ning'er.
Sima Pengyu often came to Emotion House to borrow alcohol to relieve his worries and play with flowers.
Later on, he wanted to make an exception to meet the head of the family, Su Xiaoxiao, but was rejected.
"Could it be that Sima Pengyu did it?" Lin Yue asked.
In his impression, although Sima Pengyu's character was ordinary, he wouldn't hurt a girl who didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken.
Su Xiaoxiao nodded, "A year ago, the drunk Sima Pengyu wanted to make an exception to see me again, but I rejected him. In his anger, he forcefully barged into the room and poured hot water on my face..."
"Impossible!" Ning'er said, 'Cousin, he is not that kind of person.'"
"Cousin?" Su Xiaoxiao said lightly,, "So you guys know each other. I dare not say what kind of person he is, but this matter was indeed done by him. I think many people knew about it back then. After you go out, you will know once you ask."
Lin Yue believed what she said. The backer of Emotion House was not simple. It must have caused a huge commotion because of this incident. However, the Sima family was one of the four big families, so naturally, they could settle this matter.
However, the one who was sacrificed in the middle was naturally Su Xiaoxiao, who had a disfigured face and no background.
Su Xiaoxiao was just an ordinary person. She had never cultivated before, so it was extremely difficult for her to recover after being burned.
When Lin Yue saw her face just now, most of the facial muscles were already dead. Even a famous doctor would find it very difficult to completely cure her. It was already considered not bad that she could maintain her appearance.
"Your mentality is not bad." Lin Yue was quite impressed.
Women valued their looks the most. It was really not bad to have such a good mentality after such a thing happened.
"It's just disfigured. If it wasn't for the sect master of Ling Long Sect, Zi Ning and I would have... He died a long time ago in that plague." Su Xiaoxiao said, "Moreover, this matter also allowed me to see many things clearly. Those so-called elegant people from before were merely so-so. They all value my stinky skin from before. When young master saw my face, he had yet to leave. Xiaoxiao is already very happy. "
"It is really rare for you to have such awareness." Lin Yue said," A few years ago, you took me to your village and helped me a lot. I will also think of a way to restore your face. "
"My face... Can it really be restored?" Su Xiaoxiao was surprised and doubtful.
Although she was not a cultivator, she had heard people say that the flesh on her face was almost completely dead. If she wanted to restore her face, she had to dig out all the flesh on her face and then activate the growth of the flesh.
This could only be done by a Void Breaker expert.
However, a Void Breaker expert was high and mighty. Who would make a move for an ordinary woman?
There were many beautiful women. A Courtesan Belle had disappeared, and a new Courtesan Belle would appear the next day.
"I'll do my best." Lin Yue said. With the Fiendgod Pagoda, there shouldn't be much of a problem.
However, he still needed some high quality herbs, so he didn't have any at the moment.
"I just want to ask you, if your appearance is better, do you still plan to stay here?" He continued to ask.
In his opinion, it was better to take advantage of the fact that his appearance was ruined and leave this place of fireworks.
Su Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, "Where can I go if I leave this place? The world is so big, where is my home?"
"The world is so big, where is not home?" Lin Yue said, "Why are you hiding here?"
Su Xiaoxiao was silent for a long time and finally laughed lightly, "That's right, but that's also right. These few years, I have also earned a lot of money for Emotion House. I have also saved some money, which is enough to pay for my ransom. But now, they are probably eager for me to leave. "
Since Su Xiaoxiao had already made up her mind, she would pack up and go look for Aunt Mei.
"Xiaoxiao, do you really want to leave?" Aunt Mei was rather reluctant.
All these years, she had watched Xiaoxiao grow up step by step, just like her daughter.
Even though Xiao Xiao had ruined her appearance, she still applied to the higher-ups and reserved a room for her. She did not need to worry about her food and drink.
"I'm really leaving, Aunt Mei." Su Xiaoxiao shook her hand, "After so many years, I should go out and take a look."
"Alright. Since you have decided, let's go." Aunt Mei saw that she had already made up her mind, so she went to the room to find her contract of selling her body and gave it to her. This meant that she would be completely free in the future.
"Thank you, Aunt Mei." Su Xiaoxiao hugged Aunt Mei, and her tears could not help but fall.
Although this was a place filled with dust and dust, a place filled with fireworks, after staying here for so many years, they already had feelings for each other.
The beautiful aunt patted her back and wiped away her tears, "Let's go. Remember to come back and take a look when you have time."
Su Xiaoxiao nodded her head and followed Lin Yue and Lan Ning'er away.
The three of them arrived at the inn and opened another room.
"You rest for the night first. I will prepare some things tomorrow and treat you." Lin Yue said.
"En, thank you, Young Master Lin." Su Xiaoxiao said softly.
She waited for Lin Yue. After she left, she lay on the bed and carefully took out a handkerchief with a poem written on it from her sleeve.
"I was born with a king, but not a king. The heavens are old and the earth is old. If the sovereign's emotions are endless, then abandon the immortal and look at the mandarin duck. "
This was the poem that Lin Yue had given her back then.
All these years, she had come into contact with a lot of literary people. Her literary talent was more interesting than this poem, but she still loved this poem the most.
It was not because of her literary talent, but because of her infatuation.
If a sovereign's emotions were endless, then abandoned immortals would look at a pair of lovebirds.
If a woman could really meet this type of man, what regrets would she have in this life?
She didn't know how Lin Yue was going to help her recover her appearance. Instead, she was thinking about whether she could return with him to the place where he lived if he recovered.
The next day, Lin Yue flew towards the auction house of Draconis early in the morning.
He took out his VIP token, and the guards of the auction house hurried to report to him.
"So it's little friend. Come in quickly." The old man was also Elder Yuan Zicheng of this trade.
Back then, Lin Yue had been in the limelight at the auction house. Later, he had come to the auction house to auction off a set of thirteen spirit artifacts and longswords, which had left an extremely deep impression on him.
"Little friend, what do you want to buy this time?" Yuan Zicheng said.
Lin Yue told him some of the spiritual herbs he needed. To treat Su Xiaoxiao, the older the spiritual herbs, the better, because she did not cultivate. If the medicinal strength was too strong, it would result in the opposite effect. Therefore, the medicinal strength of a hundred years old was enough.
Moreover, these herbs were only supplementary. The main thing was that he needed to use Fiendgod Pagoda to recover.
These herbs were not too rare. Yuan Zicheng quickly found them for him.
"Little friend, five days later is the time for the auction. Aren't you going to come and take a look?" Yuan Zicheng discovered that he didn't seem to know about this matter.
“ Oh?" Lin Yue indeed did not know, but since he had caught up, he naturally had to participate. Perhaps he could meet Meng Yachen.
He nodded," I will come when the time comes. Does the VIP room have mine now? "
Yuan Zicheng revealed a troubled expression, "Little friend, when this trade is holding a big auction, the news will be released three months in advance. Then, the distinguished guests will come to make an appointment and look at the auction items list. After confirming that they are here, We will arrange a VIP room for them. If it's not enough, we will reconstruct it. However, since you haven't come... "
"Alright, I know how big the matter is. I don't need to pay for these spiritual herbs. Just treat it as compensation from the VIP room. I'll come and participate in it in five days." Lin Yue threw the herbs into his storage ring.0
"No problem. This is the auction item list. Take a good look." Yuan Zicheng took out a list of items and showed it to Lin Yue.
Lin Yue narrowed his eyes. There were indeed many good items in this auction.
