Shen Qingqing frowned, suppressed the impatience in her heart, and asked him in a cold voice: "Has this fellow Taoist ever seen a female ghost wearing a pink and white skirt?"
"Are you talking about her?"
The man threw open the folding fan with a "snap", and the silver hollow fan suddenly flashed with several streams of light. The moment the stream of light dissipated, Hongying fell from the mid-air in an awkward manner, and fell on all fours.
The man followed closely behind, waving a folding fan and walked up to Shen Qingqing, saying with a smile: "I'm so sorry, I didn't know she was your little kid, I just caught her when I saw her when I passed by."
Shen Qingqing helped Hongying up and replied with a smile: "You Taoist friends need to improve their basic skills. If you can't even recognize a kid who has a master, how can you still hang out on the Taoist road in the future?"
It was originally a sarcastic statement, but unexpectedly the man was not angry, but followed her words and laughed at himself: "What your fellow Taoist taught you is that my basic skills are indeed not solid, and my eyesight is not very good. I just want to ask for help."
A powerful master, I wonder if you are willing to accept me as your apprentice?"
"Yes, why don't you accept the apprentice who comes to you?" Shen Qingqing looked into his eyes with a faint smile, "But I am very particular about accepting apprentices, and the procedures must be followed."
"First take a bath and fast for three days. After three days, go to the entrance of our village and kowtow nine hundred and ninety-nine times. Calling daddy after each kowtow. When you have finished kowtowing, come to my house to worship the teacher for tea."
The man looked puzzled, "I understand everything else, what does it mean to call me daddy?"
"Don't ask why, this is my rule."
man:"……"
His intuition told him that "dad" was definitely not a good word.
I thought I was already a deceiver, but I didn't expect to meet someone who was even more deceitful than him.
"Let's forget about becoming a disciple, but I do have other matters to discuss with fellow Taoist. Today at Youshi, there will be a private room on the second floor of Yangse Tianxiang in Ningyang County. Fellow Taoist, please come to the appointment on time."
The man chuckled, swept his eyes meaningfully over Hongying who was hiding behind her, and said slowly: "If you don't come, I will come to you again...in my own way."
These words are already a clear threat.
But the most important thing at the moment was Meng Qixue's match. Shen Qingqing had no intention or energy to start a verbal war with him, so she simply said "just wait" and pulled Hongying away.
The man didn't stop her and fiddled with the folding fan in his hand with a smile, his dark eyes filled with admiration.
On the way, Hongying was adjusting her wrinkled skirt and asked her: "What is the identity of that man? He looks very powerful."
"I had just changed my clothes and didn't notice anyone coming nearby. Suddenly a white light flashed in front of me. When I opened my eyes again, I fell into a black hole. It was so fast that I didn't even have time to call for help."
Shen Qingqing shook his head, "I don't know. Counting today, I have only met him twice, but I will soon be able to figure out whether he is a human or a ghost."
"Are you really ready to go to the date?" Hongying was surprised, "I don't think that man is a good person, and your body is not in good shape. If we get into a fight, I'm afraid you will suffer a loss."
"If he wanted to do something to me, he would have done it when we first met. There is no need to wait until now."
Shen Qingqing laughed and said: "And I can also bring in reinforcements. If one person can't defeat it, two people can't defeat it?"
Hongying gave her a thumbs up, "You are still awesome!"
When one person and one ghost returned to the competition venue, Meng Qixue was still waiting obediently backstage. The little boy was squatting on the wall with his head drooped like a frost-beaten eggplant. When he saw the two people pushing the door in, his eyes lit up.
Come to life instantly.
"Mother, sister Hongying, you are finally back!"
She jumped into Shen Qingqing's arms very quickly, and she was so excited that her golden beans gushed out.
Shen Qingqing helped her wipe away the water from the corners of her eyes and asked with a smile: "Why are you still crying? Don't you believe me?"
"No, I am so happy that I want to cry!"
In order to verify her words, Meng Qixue sniffed and forced out an extremely bright smile.
Shen Qingqing rubbed her face that was still wet with tears, "Okay, mother knows you are very happy, go and sit over there. Mother will comb your hair again and put on make-up for Sister Hongying. When you go out for a run, you will wear your hair.
Running around."
Just after tidying up, the waiter over there came to call for someone again. Seeing Shen Qingqing leaving and returning, the waiter also breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that the person is back. Let's get ready to go on stage."
According to their original plan, Hongying would go on stage first to gain enough attention and then Meng Qixue would go on stage to introduce the show, so as to avoid the audience and judges from finding the wrong points.
Meng Qixue looked up at Hongying, clenched her little fists and said seriously: "Sister Hongying, when we get to the front later, you must work hard, don't be afraid! I will be with you right away!"
Hongying gave her a confident and calm smile, "Don't worry, everything is under control."
With such beautiful clothes and such a grand occasion, she would not be able to live up to the face her parents gave her if she didn't show off her 2.8 meter aura.
As she said that, she lifted up her skirt and stepped onto the steps, her steps moving lightly and gracefully.
Meng Qixue looked at her back and silently inhaled and exhaled, then inhaled and exhaled again, then looked back at Shen Qingqing, and said crisply: "Mother, wait for my good news!"
After that, she straightened her back and climbed up the stage. However, the steps were too high and her legs were too short, so she failed to climb up twice.
Shen Qingqing held back her laughter and hugged her up, "Be careful, walk slowly, don't fall."
Meng Qixue shook her head firmly, "I won't fall. I've already fallen once."
Excellent people never fail twice in the same situation.
As Shen Qingqing expected, Hongying, dressed up in a costume, really attracted everyone's attention when she appeared on the stage.
After seeing too many luxurious or weird clothes, wearing a simple and quiet pink and white dress is like a cool breeze blowing in the hot summer, making everyone feel relaxed.
The style of the skirt is an improved version of the cheongsam, with a tight waist and a tight fit, but it also incorporates the characteristics of contemporary people's dress. The neckline is changed to a double-breasted style and is decorated with pearl plate buttons; the cuffs are wide sleeves and the tail is slit, also decorated with a pearl plate.
Button decoration.
The neckline, front placket and cuffs are embroidered with light pink embroidery thread with a pattern of entwining flowers. The other parts of the skirt are all white and made of precious silk fabric, showing elegance and nobility everywhere.
Hongying's dress is also very simple. She only wears a bun with a light pink velvet flower on her bun and a pair of small pearl earrings on her ears.
Simple to the extreme, yet elegant to the extreme.
When they saw her for the first time, everyone couldn't help but think: Whose daughter is this? She is so elegant and beautiful.
Obviously the style of the clothes seemed a bit "illegal" compared to what they usually wore, but they didn't have any charming thoughts at all. Their hearts and eyes were full of admiration and amazement.
