[Chapter 260 Blood Flying Sky (3)]

Her eyes are as bright as the moon, as deep as the water, and her long eyelashes are like a layer of gauze that separates her sight. Her upper body is only covered with a small piece of red cloth, and the red cloth is dotted with shiny gold pieces. The skirt is lower than the navel. The crony is decorated with gold pieces like the tube top. When the moonlight covers the whole of Dunhuang, the center of the bustling inn will always be lit with red lanterns. Music, Lei danced in the middle of the wooden stage, her slender waist twisted like a snake, and the veil covering her face covered her face, but it made her eyes more visible. charming.

All the lonely men in the business are staring at this stunner, pouring a big bowl of wine into their mouths, eating meat and drinking large pieces of savage travel, to meet such a beautiful woman, too many people are willing to spend a lot of money Buy good wine and enjoy Lei dancing, the swing of her arms is as easy as grasping the moon, her feet are lightly on tiptoe, as if to fly away, in the Sanskrit, sing, dance, drink, until the sky turns white, and everyone is drunk . After the passing merchants woke up, washed their faces, ate, and hurried on the road again, but whether they came or went, as long as they came here, they would definitely stay for one night to enjoy Lei’s dance.

It can be said that Lai is the pearl of Dunhuang. Of course, it is not only the businessmen who have benefited from the past, but also the owner of the tavern here. After Lai came, his business was a hundred times better than before. With a smile on his face, in order to keep Ley, he provided Ley with free accommodation, and also gave Ley a small portion of the money he earned, but other than that, he did not have much interaction with Ley, except that he knew her I don’t know where she’s from or where she’s going, because Rye can do almost nothing except dance, and can’t talk to anyone, and she’s only accompanied by a drummer. A little foreign boy and a little foreign girl who played, the two children did not look more than ten years old, and they did not like to talk much, and they lived in the same room with Lei.

One night, a passer-by who was doing business didn’t know if he drank too much. By the middle of the night, he was so drunk that he fell asleep for more than half of the night. There were still a few people who were drunk and mad, sitting on the ground and talking to themselves. Whenever this time, It was when Ley stopped dancing, and after finishing work, she slowly climbed the stairs on the second floor with her two small children.

At this time, the tavern owner must be sitting in front of the table and counting the money with a smile. The ingot of gold and jewelry made him feel the happiness of the world. He counted the income of the day, and locked all the treasures used in boxes. After entering the room, the tavern owner took out some pieces of silver, weighed it in his hands, climbed the stairs on the second floor, and placed the silver in front of Ley’s door. It is like this almost every day. The tavern owner puts the money at the door, and the children will open the door and take the money in. Even when they eat, the children will bring the food into the room to eat.

Whenever someone is laughing at the tavern owner near the water tower, the tavern owner always smiles helplessly. He is nearly forty years old in this lonely desert, without a wife and no children. No matter how lonely it is, he will occasionally go there. Visit the prostitute not far from here to vent the emptiness of your body. It’s not that he didn’t think about a beauty like Ley, but he just hinted many times that Ley was indifferent. Among the fortune and women, the tavern owner chose to make a fortune, so when he was in trouble, he always sat with a pot of wine and sat there. Downstairs, looking at Ley’s figure on the second-floor window paper, whether it was from the side or the back, it made him think about it for a long time.

On this day, he was lonely again. He took out the good wine he had collected and drank it alone. From time to time, he looked up at the second floor, and his mind was full of the shadow of Ley. At this time, a drunk man got up from the ground and patted the He patted the tavern owner on the back, and asked

with a wicked smile , “Dude, it’s late at night, why don’t you go up to rest?” In order to face these drunks, no matter what he did to them, they would not remember when they woke up anyway, so he didn’t bother to care whether the drunk was on the floor or sleeping on the table.

The drunk man was too drunk to fall asleep after being pushed to the ground. And what the drunk man said bit the tavern owner’s heart like a poisonous insect. He just wanted to rush to the second floor to get Lay regardless, but he was a smart man, if he annoyed Lay Yi, if Ley left here, it would be a big loss for him, so he had to drink the wine one by one.

Drinking and drinking, unconsciously, the tavern owner felt a little dizzy and climbed on the table…

At this moment, the door on the second floor creaked open, and the little boy put his head out and glanced downstairs, and said softly to the people in the room, “Rye, they are all asleep.”

“Are you sure? Sang Dole.” Rye’s voice was as thin as a mosquito.

The little girl heard this, ran from Ley to the door, looked at the drunk people below, and replied in a positive tone: “They are really asleep, Ley.”

After speaking, she closed the door again , Not long after, the three of them climbed down from the second floor lightly and ran towards Mingsha. They didn’t expect that the tavern owner was just drunk, but he hadn’t fallen asleep. When the three of them came down, the tavern owner woke up. He just thought it was strange, where these three people were sneaking, so they followed quietly. He went behind Ley and followed him all the way to Crescent Moon Spring. This Crescent Spring is nearly 100 meters long from north to south and 25 meters wide from east to west. The spring water is deep in the east and shallow in the west, and the deepest point is about five meters.

After arriving at the Crescent Moon Spring, the three of them jumped down in unison, and at the moment when the water splashed, the tavern owner was so frightened that he lost his intoxication at all. As he searched, he looked from east to west, it was dark, and he couldn’t see anything. The circles of water that had just swelled up to the edge of the spring were pushed back, gradually calmed down, and the lake seemed to have nothing happened. Pass.

“Damn, terrible.” The tavern owner hurriedly walked back and forth in place. If this man drowned, what would happen to his business in the future? Besides, if people live in their own taverns, if they die, others will definitely think they have nothing to do with them. After thinking about it, he doesn’t care so much, he takes off his shoes and jumps into the spring.

This spring is not big or small, but it is so deep. The owner of the tavern held his breath and searched back and forth, but found nothing, not even a corpse, but the water plants in the spring scared him several times. After climbing ashore, the tavern owner wrung his clothes off and ran back. He had to go back before dawn and go back to his room to pretend to sleep, otherwise he would let others know that he didn’t want to get anything and get into unexpected trouble. .
