A Clash of Gods - Chapter 953
[Chapter 943 Big Brother]
Qi Ning’s question obviously made Hua Lianxiang feel a little strange. After hesitating, she couldn’t help but ask, “Then who is that fortune teller, and why did the uncle ask him?”
“It’s nothing. (UC Book Union will update it as soon as possible)” Since the other party didn’t know, Qi Ning didn’t say much.
“Before I was sold to the East China Sea, I got the news that my father is dead.” Hualianxiang said sadly.
“So, you have no relatives?” Qi Ning felt sympathy.
Hualianxiang’s lips moved slightly, she wanted to say something, but she didn’t say it. Qi Ning felt that she seemed to have something to say, and said warmly: “You don’t have to have any scruples, since we are destined to sit together, if there is any embarrassment , you can say it, maybe I can help you a little.”
“I also don’t know if he is considered a relative or not.” Hualianxiang was silent for a moment, then lowered her head and said softly: “He asked me to call him eldest brother, and he was also very kind to me, sometimes sometimes I really think of him as a brother!” Having said this, he smiled awkwardly.
Qi Ning immediately raised his spirits and asked, “He? Who are you talking about?”
Hua Lianxiang thought for a while before saying, “I don’t know his name, I keep calling him eldest brother.” He raised his head slightly and glanced at Qi Ning, and said softly, “He is just like the uncle, and he treats people very kindly, even if I did something wrong. What, he’s not angry.”
Qi Ning clearly saw that when Hua Mianxiang mentioned the elder brother, there was a soft color between his brows, and there was even a hint of warmth in his eyes that could not be concealed.
Qi Ning vaguely felt that he had caught something. He raised his hand and was about to pick up the jug on the dressing table. Seeing this, he got up in a hurry, grabbed the jug before Qi Ning, and hurriedly poured it for Qi Ning. Then he took the glass with both hands and carefully handed it to Qi Ning, Qi Ning took the wine glass, nodded slightly, snorted, motioned Hualianxiang to sit down, and said with a smile, “It’s still very early before dawn, if you’re not sleepy, we’ll be here. How about talking here?”
“Uncle, uncle, do whatever you want.” Hualianxiang obediently said: “I’m not sleepy.”
Qi Ning smiled and said, “Your eldest brother should be a very interesting person, why don’t you tell me his story, where is he from?”
“I don’t know. ()” Hualianxiang shook her head: “I don’t know where he came from, and I don’t know where he’s going. I only saw him for the first time last spring.”
“Oh?”
“Just like today.” Hualianxiang whispered: “That night, I accidentally bumped into a guest, and the guest kicked me on the ground and picked up a chair to hit me!” she said When it comes to this matter, the tone is very calm, Qi Ning knows that being bullied like this is likely to be commonplace for Hua Lianxiang, only to hear Hua Lianxiang continue: “At that time, Big Brother Big Brother suddenly appeared and blocked the People, just like the uncle rescued me tonight!”
Qi Ning was startled, and suddenly understood why Hua Lianxiang mentioned that eldest brother. Obviously, he came to the rescue tonight, which made Hua Lianxiang think of that eldest brother, and couldn’t help but say it.
“That’s how you met?”
Hualianxiang nodded: “Big brother also gave money to mother that night. Just like the uncle, he also came to my house. He didn’t say anything that night, he kept drinking, and he didn’t leave until it was almost dawn.” It was a sweet color: “I thought I would never see him again, but after three days, he came to me again, and he kept drinking and didn’t say anything.”
Qi Ning sighed, “It seems that your elder brother’s drinking is quite good.”
“He’s a good drinker.” Hualianxiang said: “But I always feel that he is unhappy and seems to have something on his mind. When he came here for the third time, he brought me snacks and asked about my family background.”
“Oh?”
“I told him about my life, and he didn’t talk much. When he left the next day, he asked me to call him eldest brother in the future. He said he said I looked like his sister.
“After more than a month, he came over again and brought me something delicious. I asked him if I really looked like his sister. He said that my eyes looked like his sister, and he told him.” I said that his sister disappeared when he was thirteen years old.
(fastest update)”
Qi Ning took a sip of wine and did not interrupt.
“After that, he will come to me once a month, and he will talk to me every time he comes.” Hualianxiang said: “Yes, he also gave me a painting, sir, do you want you to take a look? ?”
Qi Ning hurriedly said, “Okay, let’s see what the painting is.”
Hua Mianxiang got up, squatted down, and pulled out a wooden box from under the bed. The wooden box looked very old. Hua Mianxiang pulled the box out, opened the box, and carefully took out the picture scroll from the inside. Wrapped, Hua Mianxiang obviously took this painting very seriously, opened the rough cloth very gently, took out the scroll from inside, held it in both hands, and carefully presented it to Qi Ning.
Qi Ning knew that Hua Mianxiang took this painting very seriously, so she was very careful when she took it over. Seeing that there was no place to unfold the picture in this room, Hua Mianxiang had already obediently went over to smooth the bed.
This wooden bed is also very simple and abnormal. Although the sheets are old, it is still clean. Qi Ning used to put the picture scroll on the bed and slowly unfolded it. I didn’t dare to get too close, not because I was afraid of Qi Ning, but because I was afraid of accidentally splashing oil on the scroll.
Qi Ning could see clearly by the firelight at this time. This is a picture of the sea. The boundless sea looks magnificent in this picture. At the end of the horizon, a red sun is very conspicuous.
In all honesty, the brushwork of this painting is not so outstanding, but the immensity of the sea is still displayed in this painting.
“Is this a painting given to you by that eldest brother?” Qi Ning stared at the scroll carefully. The whole painting was only a seascape, with no money left, and no other writing: “Can he say who painted this?”
“I asked my eldest brother and he said he said it was done by himself.”
“Why did he send you this painting?” Qi Ning wondered.
Hua Lianxiang explained: “My eldest brother has been locked in this drunk willow pavilion since I came to the East China Sea. He never went out once. He asked me if I had never seen the sea. I’ll go to the beach to see what the sea looks like.” The girl had longing on her face, and a sweet smile appeared on her lips: “Brother said that there will always be that day, when you come next time, you will give I brought this painting.”
“So it is.” Qi Ning nodded slightly, understood the reason, and then frowned: “You shouldn’t be worth a lot in Drunk Willow Pavilion, right? Since you look exactly like his sister, and he treats you very well, why don’t you help you? Redemption?”
Hualianxiang’s appearance was destroyed, and she became a handyman in the drunk willow pavilion. In fact, her worth is not even comparable to other miscellaneous women. The drunken willow pavilion is no matter how blackhearted it is, but in Hualianxiang, I am afraid that there will be no subordination. She’s got a lot of thought out of it.
Hua Mianxiang lowered her head and remained silent.
Qi Ning knew at a glance that the eldest brother should have never mentioned the matter of redemption. Although it was a little strange in his heart, he couldn’t go on. He still stared at the painting, hoping to find something strange.
“Yes, what is the appearance of that eldest brother, can you tell me easily?” Qi Ning asked calmly.
Today, there is no other special place from Hua Lianxiang, only the big brother that Hua Lianxiang suddenly mentioned, but it made Qi Ning think about it. Judging by Qi Ning, Hua Lianxiang didn’t mean to mention that on purpose. People, but since he took the initiative to mention it, it proves that Hualianxiang has no intention of concealing.
“He is not tall, with a thin face and thick eyebrows.” Hualianxiang was impressed by the elder brother, and opened her mouth to say: “His skin is bronze, but I heard that people living by the sea have the same skin color, and he His hand is very large and rough, with thick calluses!” After a pause, he said softly, “There is a scar on his left wrist, which seems to have been cut by someone.”
“Scar?” Qi Ning narrowed his eyes: “Are you sure he’s from the East China Sea?”
Hualianxiang shook her head and said, “He is not from the East China Sea. The first time he talked to me, I knew that he was not from the East China Sea. He also said that his hometown is also in Yueyang, and he and I are fellows.”
“Yueyang people?”
“But he said that he has been in the East China Sea for many years.” Hualianxiang said: “So the accent is like a Donghai person, but if you listen carefully, the accent still has the taste of Yueyang.”
Qi Ning pondered for a moment, then asked softly, “Apart from these, what else did he leave behind? I think your elder brother is very interesting. If there is a chance, I would really like to meet him. become friends.”
Hua Mianxiang showed a slight smile: “You are all good people. If you meet, you will definitely become friends.” Thinking of something, he put down the oil lamp, raised his hand, took off the simple necklace from his neck, and held it to Qi Ning. : “This necklace was also given to me by my eldest brother. He said that he could keep me safe.”
Qi Ning had noticed this necklace before, but he couldn’t see the pendant, but at this time, he could see clearly. On the jet black string, there were milky white things hanging like crescent moons. Qi Ning reached out and took it. , I looked closely under the lamp, but I found that the thing seemed to be a polished tooth, and it was smooth and tight, but it was obviously not a human tooth, but a tooth of some kind of animal. I couldn’t think of what animal tooth it would be, so I couldn’t help but ask, “Is this a tooth?”
“It’s a shark’s tooth!” Hualianxiang explained: “Big brother said that sharks are the most fierce in the sea. He took the shark’s teeth, polished it into this shape, and kept it on his body.” Staring at the shark tooth pendant, no Wu Wu was moved: “Big brother gave me this necklace, saying that in the future, if I wear this necklace, I can turn a bad luck into a good luck, and a disaster into a blessing!”
“Shark teeth?” Qi Ning’s face changed slightly, and he asked anxiously, “You said he took shark teeth and polished them into this shape. Could it be that he killed the shark himself?”
Hua Mianxiang shook her head and said, “I don’t know either. Big brother rarely talks, so I don’t dare to ask more about some things.”
“Shark teeth, shark teeth!” Qi Ning murmured to himself, suddenly realizing something, a light flashed in his eyes, and asked, “Miss Tingxiang, when was the last time you saw your big brother?”
“It was just over ten days ago.” Qi Ning’s reaction made Hua Mianxiang a little overwhelmed.
“Shark sea!” Qi Ning closed his eyes and whispered to himself, “Black tiger shark!”
