Chapter 16 The Royal Village Acrobatic Troupe

　　Le Pei Pei immediately screamed, "Pain, pain, pain, pain!" 　　"Don't be afraid, boils hurt when they're raw, but they'll get better when they're ripe! But when it's raw it should be green, if it turns red it should be ripe." Koichiro said. 　　But why did you touch it? As a result, the pain again Le Piao Piao screamed, and simply drew over the five fire fan that was promised to her, and the other hand also violently twisted Xiao Ichiro. 　　Xiao Yilang covered his backside and angrily looked at Le Piao Piao, "You! You disrespect your honor!" 　　"I'm sick right now, sick people are unbelievable." Le Piao Piao growled back, why does it hurt so much, "Now you immediately disappear in front of my eyes, otherwise I promise, absolutely will be regicide!" 　　Seeing her fierce look, Xiao Yilang swallowed and flashed very quickly. Feng Jiu was very resourceful after regaining her senses, she ran away without waiting for a command, that body twisted, the twist was nothing more than that. 　　Waiting for the two masters to leave, Le Piao Piao immediately took out the transparent mirror that couldn't be taken out of the box, and looked at it again and again, but because of the angle, no matter how brightly she flicked the candle flame, she couldn't see the so-called "boil". 　　She had an absurd thought: that strange red color, which changed in many ways, could not be the artifact, could it? 　　The investigation was unsuccessful, so she had to sit down and carefully recall and sort out the clues. How that red color came about, she didn't know, but it did appear with her awakening after sixteen years of slumber within this body. And, it was only when that Jindan cultivator endangered her life that she displayed her power. 　　After that, she first inexplicably grew a strand of red hair, and then, the "artifact" deformed and became part of her flesh and blood. 　　Thinking about it again, just now, because of a few more cups of wine with a lot of fire, which affects the operation of the five elements in the body, and fell into a vegetative state, that purple-haired man with golden pupils suddenly appeared. Definitely not an entity, but a spiritual sense of sorts. He spat out a vague pronunciation of two words, and when she couldn't help but murmur along, she suddenly entered the void realm. Afterwards, she felt something strange above her head, and when she reached out to touch it, she returned to reality. 　　Wait, there was one more detail. She couldn't move at the time, but she heard a very happy song, and a cloud of earth-colored fleshy whirring things had appeared. It was only after that that it was the purple-haired, golden-pupiled man. There was a connection, wasn't there? That singing mass of flesh, what was it? Was it her hallucination, or was it real? 　　Seven Flowers ...... 　　She unconsciously mimicked that pronunciation, and then with a swoosh, she entered the void again. She had a flash of inspiration and endured the pain to touch the part of her head where the foreign object was growing, so she really returned to reality again. 　　It turned out that the purple-haired blonde pupil man kept repeating those two monosyllables in order to tell her how to enter the void? And the thing growing above her left ear was a key growing out of it? 　　But come on, what kind of person grows a key on top of their head? What did that make her! 　　Yet another question... Who was the purple-haired man with golden pupils? Why did he want to guide her? If the artifact really existed, why did he choose her? Kindness? Malice? Unintentional? Intentional? How could she, a loser in Immortal Cultivation, get such a chance? Is it a blessing? Is it a curse? Or is it destiny? 　　The first time she saw the purple-haired, golden-pupiled man was during her soul penetration; he was fighting with three people, looked up at her and smiled. Then she was led by a red feather, attached to a baby girl who was about to freeze to death after her second soul penetration, and lived until today. 　　Red feather! Recalling this, Le Piao Piao finally understood why she always felt that red color was familiar. Because, it was that feather that guided her, to this era, the heterochronic Qin Dynasty. 　　Why her? Why? If she was chosen by the purple-haired, golden-pupil man, what unlucky reason was it. 　　She was a lazy person with no ambition, not wanting to get involved in the struggle between right and wrong or power or feelings, not wanting to diligently cultivate Immortality, not wanting to live forever, and even less interested in witnessing the Great Dao. She believes in the philosophy of life that is hard to get by, living a life that is easy to get by, wanting to have a warm home, and enjoying that kind of life: there are hundreds of flowers in the spring and the moon in the fall, and the cool winds in the summer and the snow in the winter. If there is no idle matter hanging over your head, it is a good time on earth. 　　A long sigh. Sure enough, life is not as good as nine out of ten things, in the face of the fate of things that do not go against their wishes, can only go along with it. 　　Le Piao Piao pressed a bunch of unanswered questions into her heart, and under the curiosity, she recited the seven flowers and entered the void once again. I don't know if it was because she had figured out certain things, this time what she saw was no longer a red tree, but the red feather that led her. 　　However, it was a very large root, so large that it looked like a red jeweled tree that had been growing for hundreds of years. 　　What is a feather? It's a keratinized product derived from avian epidermal cells. Covering the body surface, light and tough, slightly elastic, waterproof, with body protection, thermal insulation, flight and other functions. However, it is definitely not the kind that can be planted on the ground and grow naturally. 　　Look more carefully, the odd red feather feather stalk planted deep in the ground, the feather stem in no light source but bright in the void flashing colorful light, and the feather piece and feather branch is different shades of red, beautiful with a sacred atmosphere. 　　But what is it for? 　　After pondering for half a day also have no clue, only to come out again. It so happens that the third master without signs came back, but she has been physically restored, so she did not eat the watery fruits that he got back. 　　After the 5th day of the 5th month (the 5th day of the 1st lunar month), an inner chief eunuch, Eunuch Zhang, came to the palace to contact about the performances in the palace, including the program list, the situation of the performers and so on. At the same time, a Sister also came to teach each person the etiquette of entering the palace. Sister surnamed Rong, but with people are very familiar with that Rong Sister completely unlike, only twenty or so years old, at best counts as an older courtesan not to mention, looks very beautiful, I do not know whether the emperor is blind or what, actually confiscated for their own use. 　　Programs like the chest breaking boulder, which was dangerous and rough and ungainly, were cut, and under Le Piao Piao's design, a few items with strong strength and flexibility were added. In order to ensure the success of the show, the villagers practiced hard for days and were very busy. Le Peopeo herself does not have a program, self-appointed as artistic director and head of the Royal Village Acrobatic Troupe, by the way, knocked the royal bamboo bar, to the whole village have made a beautiful performance clothes and regular clothes. 　　After all, performing in the palace is not the same as selling on the street, and their village has no money, the Royal Family does not bear the burden of who? 　　Not only is Sister Rong a beautiful woman, she is also a shrewd one, seeing Le Piao Piao's small mind, but not only did she not resent it, she was also very kind to her. This kind of master who even dared to stab the blood of the Emperor, there weren't many in the Great Qin Dynasty. 　　"The Emperor has deep feelings for the late first Empress, so there is no queen in the inner palace except for a few concubines. His Highness the Crown Prince didn't have a big wedding, so the harem matters are all in the hands of Consort Xue." Sister Rong told Le Piao Piao, "I see that the people on the imperial estate are honest and will not cause any trouble, just don't let them run around." 　　"Is Sister in charge around Consort Xue?" Le Piao Pei asked respectfully. 　　With Sister Rong's appearance and age, she must be very capable and serve by the side of the person in charge. 　　Sure enough, Sister Rong nodded, "Consort Xue is Lord Xiangguo's only daughter, before she entered the palace, I was the one who served her." 　　"Thank you Sister for mentioning it." Le Piao Piao's mouth said sweetly, "If there is something that is not done well, Sister must remind." 　　"You're a smart and clever girl, generous and not shy, very much in line with my temperament, just don't worry." Sister Rong laughed, "That is, after entering the palace, you will have time to pay a visit to Princess Xue. I heard that you were a fool for the first sixteen years of your life, and after being carried to the guillotine by our Crown Prince, you were shocked, and your spirit was opened." 　　Le Pei Pei froze. 　　This kind of thing, how does the palace know? I wonder if it would be a threat to her favor. After all, the emperor's favorites who were raised in the deep palace were all curious about her. Attracting too much attention was not a good thing after all. 　　"Don't worry." Sister Rong could see her worries and smiled as she patted her head, "You have been in the Imperial Villa and don't go out much, don't you know that the events of that day have been rumored in the marketplace for a long time and are well known. When the emperor heard, he talked to Princess Xue a few times, and treated it as a strange thing to laugh about. Lord Xiangguo also said, this is a good omen, in desperate times, in the adversity of the blessing, the emperor is very happy, but also a special reward you. When you were selling your art on the street, you didn't tell us where you came from, so the people didn't know. If they knew, they would have to mob you." 　　It's over, it's a mascot. Wouldn't something big happen one day and take her as a mascot to sacrifice, right? 　　She wanted to keep a low profile, but why was she becoming more and more high-profile? She found that she was running in the opposite direction on the avenue of life that she had planned without any hesitation and without realizing it. 　　Luckily this was in ancient times, if it was modern times, would she be captured and subjected to cruel scientific experiments? 　　After Rongma left, Le Piao Piao forced the second master Feng Jiu to take her to a secret cave in the belly of the mountain, chopped down a large piece of variegated stone, and told the prospective blacksmith to make a set of jewelry for her overnight. 　　She was really too eye-catching, and she also had to face the Emperor's kind of level of cultivators, and had to face all kinds of questions and probes about her sudden smartness, so it was too important to get a few more stones to shield her own aura. She was a scum yes, but didn't she have a divine weapon in her body? 　　In the blink of an eye, the fifteenth day of the first month arrived. 　　This day was the Lantern Festival, and the folk were already very lively. On the contrary, it was also the birthday of Emperor Baili Songtao, so it was simply considered a universal celebration. 　　Early in the morning, the Imperial Village Acrobats were called into the palace. But after all, it wasn't a street performance, the staff had to be streamlined, and there were only ten people in total. Le Piao Piao's family of four, village chief Xia Ningfeng and village flower Zi Mo's father and daughter, village doctor Tian Youjia who had a beautiful body and was suitable for being a movable set board, Huaibei Blacksmith who looked thin and weak but was from the series of strength, village nun Ming Yue who had superb flexibility and was performing drilling cylinders, and the village literary young man who was cooperating with Xiao Yilang in performing magic tricks, Dabai. 　　In addition, there was a chicken, no, a pigeon. Or no, it doesn't seem to be. Anyway, it's an unidentified flying bird-like creature that looks like a chicken, but with gray with black speckled feathers, as well as a size that somewhat resembles a pigeon. 　　It is a prop that Koichiro uses when he performs his magic trick of transforming a pigeon into a live one. Because the village does not even have chickens, pigeons are not easy to get, Xia Village Chief specially two days in advance from Tongchuan city to buy. People see that he wants to rush, and stupid will not bargain, is raw extortion of one or two silver high-priced chicken. No, pigeons. 　　But although long ago to the palace, but was circled in a house, in addition to toilets, not allowed to walk half a step. At least there is a supply of food and water, has been consumed until the evening birthday banquet began. And as the guest of honor, a group of douchebags as part of the entertainment, made a grand entrance.
