Late Night Tales Of The Capital Chapter 110 Born in the Southland and Be the Bes

After feeding Red Bean's bottomless belly, the story continued.

Red Bean had long been waiting. She seemed to love the stories, and for the first time, she found that listening to a human telling story was such a happy thing. What she used to do every day was really boring, although there was a reason that she had to do that and would never waver.

But this did not affect her to cultivate her own interests and hobbies. These two words were also learned from the stories of Ye Que. The Eldest Young Ladies in Luoyang City and the Princess of the Royal Palace also had their own interests and hobbies.

Red Bean thought, since she was also a Royal Highness, she must have an interest and hobby.

It was a very tangled thing to decide on hobbies and interests for other people, but Red Bean made decisions quickly. Her later interest was to listen to Ye Que to tell stories, and her future hobby was to eat the meat that Ye Que grilled.

She held her cheeks with her hands.

She was staring at Ye Que and hearing him tell things that she had never heard before.

Red Bean thought that this cave was really comfortable, because there was fire to keep warm, there was meat to eat, and there were also stories to listen, so it was really excellent.

The stories that Ye Que told had already gone far, from himself to the anecdotes of the Human World, and then to the customs and culture of the prosperous Tang, and finally came to the romantic theme.

It turned out that whether the girls were beautiful or not was determined by the boys!

A girl must fall in love with someone in her whole life, which should be a passionate romance!

Only experienced with love and pain, could she understand the life in the Human World!

"How can I know if a boy likes a girl?" Red Bean suddenly asked Ye Que.

Hearing the problem from Red Bean, Ye Que thought carefully. It was indeed a very difficult question to answer! In fact, many of the things he talked about, he had never experienced before. Except for what he had experienced, there were still parts of what he had seen and read on books, like the romantic theme, which was exactly written on books.

"If a boy is willing to pencil your eyebrows, then he definitely likes you." He racked his brains and recalled the books he had read in the past. It seemed that there was such a piece of text which seemed to be reasonable. And then he told Red Bean.

"Pencil eyebrows?" Red Bean gently touched her own eyebrows, then she looked at Ye Que. "If there is a chance, you can pencil my eyebrow."

"I have never penciled eyebrows before!"

"I have never penciled them since I was born."

"I want to pencil it once. Since you know so much, you can definitely pencil eyebrows well."

Looking at the eyes of Red Bean with such an expectation, Ye Que nodded without thinking. "Well, after we go back to Luoyang City, I will buy you the best rouge and powder, and pencil your eyebrows."

As soon as he finished, Ye Que suddenly found a problem from her words. "You have never penciled your eyebrows since childhood?"

"No, I even don't know what it is." Red Bean took it for granted.

"Where did you come from?" Ye Que asked casually.

"Where did I come from?"

"I mean, where is your home? Where were you born?" Ye Que gave her a patient explanation.

Red Bean thought about it seriously, and then she said with certainty, "My name is Red Bean, of course I was born in the Southland!"

"Red beans are born in the Southland?" Ye Que looked at Red Bean. Suddenly he had a feeling that this girl was playing a trick with him. What did she mean by since her name was Red Bean, of course she should be born in the Southland?

"You are kidding!"

"There is no such a country named Southland on the Divine Land. I am very convinced! Even in the Celestial World and Demon World, I have never heard of the country of Southland. Are you mistaken?" Ye Que was quite speechless.

The flames shining on Red Bean's face, she was calm and indifferent, and there was no hint of jokes.

"I was born in the Southland."

"I did not lie to you."

"I have never deceived people since I was born."

"The old men in our family told me so that our place was called the Southland, unless they were lying to me." Red Bean said earnestly, and she looked as usual.

After staring at Red Bean's eyes for a few seconds, Ye Que was convinced that the girl was really not deceiving him. She might really have been born in the Southland. "Probably it is a secret clan, or a remaining dynasty from a hundred years ago. It is possible for them to found a country on its own and live in seclusion. Or how could they raise such an innocent girl?"

"Then tell me your stories." Ye Que fetched a few pieces of jujube woods from aside of his hand and added them into the fire.

"My stories?"

Red Bean pointed at herself and then shook her head.

"I'm not good at telling stories!"

"This is nothing about good at or not, you can just talk about how you grew up? What have you seen? Is there anything interesting? Or something that impressed you very much. Or what dreams do you have?" Ye Que said casually, just like chatting.

Red Bean frowned, and her hands were holding her cheeks, as if she was thinking hard, but it seemed that nothing could be recalled.

"What have you done since you were young? It is impossible to be nothing!" Ye Que said.

"I was just fighting every day since I was young."

"I grew up in fights."

"Can this be my story?"

"I have read lots of books that teach me how to fight, so many and all kinds of books about sword skills, formations, spells, mantras..."

"And I have seen others killing people and demons many times. I have also killed many people and demons myself. Is this a story?"

Red Bean racked her brain and began to talk about how she grew up. But the more Ye Que heard, the more he felt strange—except for fights and killings, didn't the girl have done anything else since she was young?

"What is your biggest dream?" Ye Que suddenly interrupted her memories.

"Dream?"

"The Elders told me that I should be the strongest practitioner in the world, and be the best fighting practitioner. I must be the best." Red Bean replied without hesitation.

"The best in the world?"

"Your Elders are so confident!" Ye Que said and curled his lips. He now had reason to believe that this girl might be a successor cultivated by a killer organization? Or how could she have such a strong killing intent, and whether humans or demons, they were all within her killing scope.

"Do you think I can do it?" Red Bean looked at Ye Que and asked.

Ye Que pushed the bonfire lightly with a wooden stick, and a burst of ash was floating. Ye Que swayed his hands to push the floating ash away. "It is very difficult to be the best in the world, and it will be very tiring. Your life will be threatened at any time."

"And it doesn't mean anything."

After listening to his answer, Red Bean did not say anything for a long time. Finally, she straightened up, sitting in great state. Her face was calm and she said seriously, "But I have to be the best in the world. I have reasons that I must do this, no matter how difficult is it."

The big black umbrella that she had been carrying all the time suddenly flashed black light in her palm. It seemed to be cheering for Red Bean.
