There are always monsters coming to eat

After a few steps, he tapped the ground gently with his feet. "here."

"She must have heard about my legend at that time, and she ran to this extreme north to explore my existence. In fact, I noticed her when she first entered the cave, but she felt that she was not big and she was a little The little devils who don't know how to hide their aura are harmless if they think about it, so they don't care too much. After all, every year there are dozens of ghosts and ghosts or reckless people. Even if they break in with ulterior motives, they usually see I'll just bow and then leave."

"After all, those who can come here will more or less hear about my temper and character from books or elders' rumors."

"But she didn't." Zhulong paused, and turned around with his hands behind his back.

"She stood here, jumping happily and beckoning to me: 'Hey! Are you Mr. Candle Dragon! Mr. Candle Dragon, can you see me!'"

"I didn't know what the word 'Mr.' meant at the time, but it sounded very fresh. It was probably a term of honor from the demons, I thought at the time."

"So on a whim, I nodded to her."

"Wow! Mr. Candle Dragon replied to me! Mr. Candle Dragon! Can you transform into a human form!"

"I ignored her this time, and even felt that this little demon girl was a bit ignorant of human etiquette, too noisy and familiar, thinking that if she asked after her, I would give her a breath and blow it out of the hole .”

"But she didn't."

"Xu Shi saw that I didn't respond at all. She took off her shoes and socks, rolled up her trouser legs, sat by the pool, put her feet into the pool, and stepped on the water to play."

"'Mr. Zhulong! Aren't you bored staying like that! Come and play with me!' Just when I started to wonder why this girl didn't go back, I suddenly heard such a sentence."

"So I froze for a moment, and then I blew it out for her."

"Unexpectedly, after a while, the closer and closer laughter came to my ears, 'Hee hee hee hee! It's so interesting! Mr. Zhulong will do it again! Do it again, please!'"

"I was stunned again, ignored her, raised my head and stared into the distance."

"But I probably thought her begging was a bit annoying. After a while, I blew it out for her again. Then I blew it out for her when she ran back laughing and didn't speak, and it went on like this. .”

"Until she finally yelled from a distance: 'Don't play, Mr. Zhulong! Let me go back to the pool and take off my clothes! I'm going home!'"

"But I didn't let her go back to the pool. This time I blew her out with her shoes and socks."

"I thought this matter was over, until I suddenly heard this familiar voice: 'Mr. Zhulong, I'm back to play with you again!'"

"So I subconsciously blew it out for her again."

"I'm wearing a new dress today! Mr. Zhulong, you can't brag about me like that, my clothes will be dirty."

"So I let her walk in front of me again. The difference is that I looked at her carefully this time."

"I don't really want to say how beautiful she is, not even the ice and snow Qingling, but there is an aura that is completely inconsistent with mine from the bottom of her bones. But this time she is so timid. Standing, looking at you with wide-open eyes, let you involuntarily feel a little affection from your heart."

Speaking of this, Zhulong stopped again and turned around.

"I still remember that during those two years, she came to me a total of 307 times."

"For the 120th time, I couldn't bear her begging and went out of the cave with her, and watched the snowfall scene in this Arctic place every three or four days. The snowfall was much more lively than before." Candle Long laughed lightly, "In the vast white snow, she covered her frozen red ears with her hands. I couldn't resist adding a small spell to her so that her side would not feel cold."

"On the [-]rd time, she asked me to take her to see the flowers blooming in the world. She was flopping around in my pool of water like a fool. If I didn't know that she was a demon, I would have thought she was too much. A restless little demon, of course, I couldn't pass her that time, so I turned into a prototype and let her fly to the valley of the world. This little girl really didn't know how to avoid politeness, so she was so careless. Riding on me, the ancient god."

"During the 280th time, she said she wanted to go to the festival. I don't know where she has so many curious things."

"Under the lantern that night, I asked her, have you ever seen these before?"

"She bit the malt candy and said inarticulately, 'No, I am not a mortal, and I am hundreds of years old. I have seen these many times.'"

"'Isn't it boring?' I was really puzzled at the time. I already felt that the world was nothing more than this, and I thought I had seen through everything. Mountains have been built for thousands of years, trees have been planted for hundreds of years, rain, snow, and water are all four seasons, and all living beings in the world are just passing away. , see more, it’s all the same.”

"'How can it be boring? Every moment, even the moment when the leaves fall, everything here is different, how interesting.' She smiled and bit the candy, her eyes were full of lights, as if the dazzling lights in her mouth Time is always in her eyes. I was speechless for a moment."

"'Besides, being able to watch lanterns with Mr. Zhulong, this kind of thing is more different than other things.'"

"I'm still very surprised why she always calls me 'Sir'. I always feel that this little girl doesn't call people with respect, but if there is any other ambiguity, I am a little ashamed to ask."

"However, I vaguely felt that on that day, when the lights were dim, there were flowers in her hair, and the rouge was like the sunset in the sky, the word 'Mr.' read from her lips and teeth, and there was something different about it."

"I thought she was noisy and didn't know how to be polite, but one day, she was playing in my cave and asked me: 'Mr. Zhulong, do you know how many times I have come here?'"

"I blurted out subconsciously, three hundred and seven times. At that moment, before her eyes sparkled with joy, I knew that there were some things that I was stupid. I never realized that I had become different gone."

"There was joy in her eyes, but she lowered her head seldom, as if hesitating a little, whether to say anything."

"After a while, she came to me, stood on tiptoe, tilted her head and asked me, 'Do you know what the word 'Mr.' means in the demon clan?"

"I shook my head, expressing I don't know."

"Her face was reddish, she pursed her lips, and then sang softly—'Before I walk, I will bless you day and night, and I will go far and forever, and live together with you.'"

"'Sir, you know, you know?' She gently rested her head on my shoulder, and her words were moving for a long time."

-

"We were together after that." Zhulong raised his head, as if waking up from his memories.

"Gods and demons can also be together?" Shi Yu was just a little curious. After all, from the books or TVs he had read in the past, it seemed that gods are gods and demons are demons. If the two want to be together, there are always many obstacles.

"We can be together," Zhulong also knew that Shiyu was puzzled, but he paused for a while and said, "but you can't have children. It has been said since ancient times that the children of gods and demons are unpredictable in nature and will inevitably bring disaster."

"In this world, there is no absolute justice, and there are no absolute demons in karma. Gods and demons just don't interfere with each other, and I am still an ancient god, and I know right and wrong in my heart. There is nothing wrong with being with a girl from the demon clan." Virtue."

"But I was selfish. At the last moment, I chose to go against the world and leave me and her child behind." Zhulong's voice sank, looking at his forearm thoughtfully.

"I married her, and the days of being husband and wife were really the best time in my long time, but fate dictates that after less than five years of marriage, she suddenly became seriously ill. I can't cure her either. I claim to have seen through the world, but I can't do anything about her illness. Only then did I realize that the world is much bigger than what I saw."

"I heard later that if a son is conceived by the union of gods and demons, based on this son, it is allowed to get rid of all diseases in the body. So I kept it from her and placed a spirit body in her belly."

"When she found out, the spirit body had already formed. Although she didn't want to, there was nothing she could do. I thought that after the spirit body was born and absorbed her pain, we would be together forever."

"But I never expected that at the last moment of the birth of the spirit body, she forcibly suppressed herself, preventing the turbid air from hurting the spirit body at all."

"I wanted to save her, but she shook her head and said to me, 'Mr. Zhulong, there is a cause and effect in this world. Although you can control the day and night, and change the seasons, you cannot change the sky and fate. It is these unchangeable and unknowable things. This world will always make people look forward to things.’”

"'Ling'er has no regrets in this life, Mr. has promised all my wishes in this world.'"

"When she was dying, she sang those few words softly, 'Before I walk, I will bless you day and night, and I will go far and forever, and I will live with you-Sir, I am so sorry, I will take a step first, stay The next child will go forward with Mr. to look forward to life...'"

"Sir, sir..."

75. Candle Dragon ([-])

"And the child she left behind is Yugao. I know that there must be a cause and effect for what is said by the destiny. I know that this child cannot be kept, but when I think that this is the evidence of my flesh and blood connection with Ling'er, no matter what. It’s also impossible to kill him.”

"Although the matter between me and Ling'er has never been deliberately concealed, after all, I am an ancient god and I am in this remote place, and not many people know about it. But this child is actually recorded in the book of life and death. Naturally, he knew it, so he found me not long after."

"He also knows about me. Although he didn't force me to kill this child in the end, he gave me a spell and told me that the demon power in this child cannot be removed, but it can be suppressed. "

"The spell suppressed the power of the demonic part of this child with my flesh and blood, so he could not be transformed into a prototype, but could only maintain a human form. His mana was far inferior to others, but he could live safely. .”

"But after all, it is a matter of blood. His part of the demon blood is sealed on me. As long as he gets close to me, I need to exhaust my strength to suppress the magic power that is about to return to his blood, not to mention Speaking of skin-to-skin contact, the Heavenly Emperor explained to me from the very beginning that I must never have any skin-to-skin contact with this child, and if I touch, the power of the demon race will flow back into his body."

"This child may have lost half of his blood, and his personality is more dull, half of his mother's appearance. And I was also worried that as he grew up, the power of the demons became stronger, so I did not dare to fight with him every day. He met up close."

"But, after all, he is my son. How could I not think about him, and how could I not fulfill my responsibilities as a father."

"I still remember that on the day of the Hundred Days Banquet, he was put into the fairy pool by the fairy from afar. That was the first time he opened his eyes. Those round pupils resembled his mother very much, but the pupil color was the same as that of his mother's." I am the same. My heart is full of love and joy, such a little guy actually bears the blood of the two of us, how can people not like it."

"I am a clumsy father. He should have learned to walk, but I couldn't touch him because of the spell, so I had to kneel on the ground with him and watch him stand up by himself. If he is about to fall, hurry up Cast a spell to protect him."

"When he was babbling, I taught him to call mother over and over again. The child was stupid and couldn't yell clearly. I was not in a hurry, so I held Linger's portrait in front of him and taught him again. Again."

"One day, he yelled 'Mom' in a loud voice, but it really made me so happy. The sound of 'Mom' echoed in the cave for a long time. Where I was talking, the water in the pool was rippling, and the fireflies reflected two clusters of flowers. I always felt as if I saw Linger stepping on the water and saying to me, "Mr. Zhulong, can you see me! Our child just called me!" '"

"At my age, I couldn't help but get wet at that moment."

"As this child grows up, I can feel that the magic power is getting stronger and stronger. Even if it is a mile away, I will consume a lot of spiritual power to suppress the magic power."

"Later, when this child stood in front of me and said a word to me, there would always be blood in my mouth that was backlashed by magic power."

"At that time, the Emperor of Heaven also came to me, and told me, it is better to treat it as a child raised by an ordinary mortal family. A few decades of life is enough for him to see the world. People get rid of this child."

"But how can I bear it, even though I don't keep it with me all the time, I can see this child's growth. I just use up some spiritual power to keep this child safe and sound, why not?"

"However, maybe the fate is really hard to break. I can change the blood of this child, but I can't change the fate that this child should have."

"This child met a member of the Demon Race hundreds of years ago. It was only then that I realized why Ling'er never told me her real name."

"Ling'er was originally the only daughter of the leader of the last generation of the demon clan, but because of a coincidence, she saw me once in the mirror of the water, and secretly ran to see me. After a long time, she insisted on staying with me. The leader of the demon clan was in a hurry, and wanted to She was trapped in the land of the demon clan. But she escaped in the end. Before leaving, she only left a note-"The day is long and windy, the spring is fine and the summer is bright, and the night is falling and the stars are autumn and winter. I will get rid of it." One's own name is only shared with heaven and earth.'"

"I am the symbol of the four seasons of day and night. Ling'er himself erased the name of the demon clan, concealed his aura, and came to see me through mountains and rivers. The leader of the demon clan did not want to quarrel with the fairy world, so he did not come to find a daughter again, but he always missed me. , Later, when I got older, I chose a child of the Demon Race to take with me and teach him as my grandson."

"The child of the demon clan is not a vulgar person, and his aptitude is amazing, but he seems to have been aggrieved all the time, and he doesn't want to be raised as a substitute for others. So when the leader of the previous generation of demon clan passed away, this child became the new leader of the demon clan Afterwards, what he did was indeed a bit appalling, but in truth, it can be regarded as karma.”

"It was at that time that Yu Yu happened to go to the mortal world. Maybe it was a coincidence of destiny that made him meet that child."

"I don't know the details of what happened, but in the end, my dull son actually embarked on a path that is even more shocking than me. As a father, how could he not see his joy and distress? But my father didn’t say much, it’s not that he didn’t want to say it but he didn’t know how to say it, I thought it was my son who was stupid, but then I realized that I might be more clumsy than him.”

"The child of the demon clan is also a paranoid person. If my son wants to be with him, I am afraid it will be very difficult."

"I know that the road he has to go is too difficult. Although I know it's wrong, as a father's selfishness, I can't bear to let him live too hard in this life."

"So I released part of the power of the demons that had been sealed all the time, at least allowing him to protect himself and the person in his heart when he is in the demons and the world."

"But his aura of half-god and half-demon was detected by the second leader. It was a big mistake for me to remove part of the seal for the sake of God. If I give more blessings, I am afraid that the world will be more chaotic, so I didn't take action."

"Later, I found out that Yu Yu was killed by the second leader. But the strange thing is that the remaining demon power of Yu Yu sealed on my body has not disappeared. At that time, I vaguely knew that things would be difficult after this. for."

"Sure enough, not long after, the Heavenly Emperor came to me once, and took away all the power of the demon race from my flesh and blood. The bloodstains on my arms now are the permanent traces that fell at that time. I I didn’t ask too many questions, but I made a rough guess.”

"A few days later, the Emperor of Heaven asked someone to take me to the Heavenly Palace. At the gate of the Heavenly Palace, I saw my son who should have died. It would be a lie to say that I was not surprised at all, but I also knew that Yuyu at this time was no longer My dull and weak son, now he has the blood of gods and demons."

"I want to bring him with me, and bring him back to my place in the extreme north. Even if his temperament is changeable, at least he won't hurt anyone, and no one will take his life."

"But the Emperor of Heaven said, just let me meet Yuya again, and from now on Yuya will not be able to enter the fairyland again."

"That day, I saw him half-human, half-animal, with scarlet eyes that had long lost the color of my pupils. But those round eyes still looked very much like Ling'er. It was ridiculous to say, so I stretched out my hand to caress him This is the first time in the past hundred years that I have really touched his skin, and my heart was warmed at that moment."

"At that moment, I seemed to see Ling'er standing there, saying with a guilty face, 'Mr. Zhulong, I was self-willed and left this child behind'. I really wanted to tell her that it was not her fault, it was me. Ah, I don't want to share flesh and blood with her, I don't want to give up that child at the Hundred Days Banquet, I don't want to say 'mother', and I don't want to grow up in the future."

"In the chaos, I heard him shouting 'Father, I'm leaving'. I was a little dazed. At that time, Yu Yu should have lost his mind, so how could he talk to me. But after the voice disappeared, I That son was taken away by the Emperor of Heaven without even allowing me to see him off."

"After that, I never heard of anything in the world."

"I'm sorry," Zhulong said. At this point, his right hand landed on the back of his left hand, sticking it to his forehead, and knelt down in the water, "I know you are the spirit stone. If you go to all the cultivation bases, you will almost not be able to enter reincarnation."

"Besides, there are all kinds of difficulties in the world. In the final analysis, it was all caused by me. I will apologize to you on behalf of my son."

Shi Yu stood there, pursed his lips, and didn't say much, until Zhulong knelt down and got up again, then he opened his mouth and said:

"I was a spirit stone in my last life. It is my duty to protect the world. Your worship should not be an apology to me, but an apology to the people who died in the sea of ​​fire and died in the mouth of beasts. It's just that those people are long gone, and I will Don't make excuses, accept your worship on their behalf."

"But as far as I am concerned, I think you are a good father and husband."

"The first time I saw you, although you closed your eyes tightly, there was a small petal in the corner of your eye, which has not fallen for a long time. I think you have shed tears, and the tears made the petal stick to the corner of your eye. Tears It's not easy at all, but it may be even more difficult for you. But you are willing to shed tears for your loved ones, which is the proof of love."

Shi Yu's eyes were firm, and he met Shang Zhulong's eyes:

"In this life, please forgive my selfishness. Someone has waited for me for a hundred years. I don't want to bear him anymore, but I also don't want to see the world in chaos again. Can you use your tears, I think your son lost His mind is also suffering, at least in his long sleep, he may still have sweet dreams."

"The tears of Zhulong mentioned by the world are not my tears." Zhulong looked at Shiyu and Su Mi with some guilt, "Before you came, the child who is now the leader of the demon clan also came."

"That man also asked me for Candle Dragon's Tears. I didn't mention it at the time, but I thought that after a hundred years, that child has done all kinds of wrong things, but he still misses my son. I can't bear to be too harsh, but Take him away."

"The tear of the candle dragon was originally the crystallization of the first tear that I saw falling in the world when Pangu Nuwa and I created the world. It's not that I don't want to give it to you, it's just that crystallization. I put it in as a protection since the child was born. Inside the child."

"If I can put my son in the formation together with other things, maybe it is possible."

"Thank you." Su Mi took a step forward and bowed to show his respect. He knew that if Zhulong insisted on protecting his son, he would not have told them, but just fooled him with a tear.

Candle Dragon shook his head, without further words, he slowly changed back to his original shape, and coiled around the branches of the tree again.

Shi Yu also knew that Zhulong felt very uncomfortable for making this decision, so he stopped asking more questions, but pulled Lasumi and walked out of the cave together.

Walking to the entrance of the cave, Shi Yu turned around as if remembering something——

"Mr., I will definitely come to talk to you again in a few days. The human world has changed a lot now, which is very interesting. If you want, you can come and sit with me."

After finishing speaking, Shi Yu bowed deeply, and then left the cave.

After Shi Yu and Su Mi left, Zhulong said in a hoarse voice, "Okay—"echoed in the cave for a long time.

"Ling'er, the world is really different. Maybe there will always be new interesting things. I will take a good look for you."

Zhulong opened his eyes, and a tear fell from his eyes.

Outside the cave, between heaven and earth, lights lit up.

"The god of Zhongshan, named Zhuyin, regards it as day, closes it as night, blows it as winter, calls it summer, does not drink, does not eat, does not rest, and breathes as wind. It is thousands of miles long. It is in the east of nothing. It is a thing, Human face, snake body, red color, living under Zhongshan Mountain." - "Shan Hai Jing Candle Dragon"

76. Li Zhu ([-])

Shi Yu and Su Mi came out of Zhulong's cave, the vast expanse of snow covered the northern land, the sky was just turning white, and the wind and snow stopped last night.

"Can we still visit him after the matter is over?" Shi Yu's last words in Zhulong's cave were indeed what he really thought, but after all, people are different from gods, so I don't know if it's good good.

"Why?" Su Mi looked at Xue and stopped, took a handful of tobacco from his pocket and slowly lit it, "Do you feel that you are ashamed of him?"

"There are some……"

It would be false to say that there is no guilt at all. Although it is for the sake of all beings, it is ultimately to let Yuyu sleep forever. But for Shi Yu, the reason for wanting to do so is: "I always feel that he looks very much like him. The appearance of a human father."

"No matter how serious and strict, I still want to protect my children and move forward. I have expectations but also have selfishness."

Su Mi squinted his eyes, looked at Shiyu who had a little red nose but serious eyes, and felt a slight movement in his heart. His little stone was really different from before, so he couldn't help but reached out and stroked Shiyu's hair. With a low laugh, he said:

"That said, you can be regarded as raised by me."

Shi Yu's face flushed slightly with embarrassment, turned his face slightly, and said in a low voice:

"It's different."

"The little guy is still making a fuss," Su Mi smiled and ran his hand across Shiyu's nose, and the place that had been a little red from the cold immediately returned to its normal color, "If you want to come in the future, I will take you again Just come here. It’s a good place to escape the heat in summer.”

"Aren't we going to bother Zhulong too much?" Shi Yu was still a little worried that ancient gods like Zhulong didn't like being visited.

"Compared with human beings, gods have only existed in the world for a longer period of time. After a long time, they have always become a little more indifferent to the world, but after all, there is never absolute loneliness in this world. Mountains and rocks even gather to form mountains, and forests and trees Roots are born, not to mention things that have feelings and feelings.”

"Staying alone for a long time, without any anger, Xu really becomes confused and forgets what life is. God is nothing great, and people are not all common things. To be honest, we know all kinds of things in the world, and people are better than us. There are even more guys who have lived for an unknown amount of time."

Su Mi looked at the entrance of the cave behind him, and suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. Before the stone island, he was in the Hanyan Pavilion, which was probably more desolate than the snowy land in the north.

Just as Su Mi was thinking that way, she suddenly felt her fingertips warm up, and the back of her hand was also wrapped in warmth——

"When it's over, let's go home, I want to eat butter bread."

Shi Yu's hand was holding Su Mi's, and the fingertips were still hooked on Su Mi's palm. Obviously, the words were not so emotionally ups and downs, but they really melted like snow on a stove, melting from the bottom to the core, warming the heart. A cup full of warm tea.

Su Mi looked at Shiyu, he had been thinking about this person for a hundred years, and during these long years, the wind of thinking about him turned into softness. To the young man Junlang holding hands beside him, suddenly on this day, he seems to be as tall and straight as a tree, but his thoughts are still like cotton.

He originally thought that Shi Yu's always meek and indifferent appearance made him want to protect him and not leave him alone.

But in this wind and snow world, he saw the young man take that step, tough but still gentle, what should he say, has his little stone finally grown up, thinking of this, Su Mi couldn't help but smile.

"What's the matter?" Shi Yu looked at Su Mi's sudden smile with some puzzlement.

"I feel like my child has grown up." Su Mi tapped on the cigarette rod, "Let's go, finish things quickly, I also want to go back, there is no place to rest and relax every day."

After speaking, Su Mi embraced Shiyu, exhaled a puff of smoke, and was about to leave for the next place.

In the smoke, Shi Yu pulled Su Mi's tail, turned his head and pinched it, and muttered in a low voice:

"What kind of child, obviously a lover."

The ears on the top of Su Mi's head were suddenly exposed, stood up and shook twice:

"What did you just say?"

"It's nothing." Shi Yu suddenly felt a little ashamed of what he said, and couldn't help pursing his lips, pretending that nothing happened.

Su Mi raised her eyes and didn't say any more, but there was a smile that couldn't be hidden at the corner of her mouth.

Little guy, but I heard it all.

-

After the smoke dissipated, the two arrived in a bamboo forest.

Surrounded by lush green bamboos, the wind blows over the branches, rustling, the tall branches are half-curved inwards and clustered, and the bamboo branches are facing an empty flat land, on which there is a small exquisite courtyard.

"This is...?" Standing in the bamboo grove, Shi Yu felt that the courtyard in front of him seemed to be in a painting, and he didn't dare to take half a step to disturb the tranquility in the painting.

"Li Zhu's residence," Su Mi put his cigarette stick up and hung it on his waist, "he is the angel of the Queen Mother of the West, but he does not live in the palace of the Queen Mother of the West on weekdays, but lives here by himself. .”

"An envoy?" Shi Yu tilted his head.

"Zhu Li was originally a divine beast. In the early years, he was the mount of Queen Mother Xi, but later, because of his ability to handle affairs, and the fact that Queen Mother West is relatively free and easy and doesn't like complicated things, he became the envoy of Queen Mother West who is responsible for handling various things." Su Mi thought about it again, and always felt that it was still a little unclear to say it this way, so she changed it to another way of saying, "It's kind of similar to your world, what's that called, secretary?"

"You knew each other before?"

"It's a bit of contact," Su Mi scratched his messy hair, "but... tsk... this person is not likable."

Shi Yu always felt that Su Mi didn't quite say something, so he looked at Su Mi curiously, but Su Mi turned his head away.

"You'll know as soon as you see it."

While speaking, Su Mi tucked his hands into the sleeves of his long robe, and walked out of the courtyard, poking his head slightly, and just about to speak, he saw a gust of wind gushing out of the courtyard, before Shi Yu recovered, he saw a The man wears a monocle with a golden glass frame on his right eye, and a scarlet tassel on the hook behind his ear. He is wearing an ink-colored Tang suit embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns in gold thread. The cloth shoes have no stains at all and are spotless.

If it wasn't for Su Mi standing there with messy hair, tail twitching and sleeves tucked in, Shi Yu would have thought that in front of him was a meticulous painting of a rich man walking out of a bamboo forest in the Republic of China.

Before Su Mi could speak, the man pushed his glasses and neatly combed Su Mi's messy hair into a look that Su Mi would never do by himself, and then frowned slightly. Chu, picked up Su Mi's cuff again, conjured up a spray bottle and sprayed the sleeve a few times, and then wiped off the stains with the silk cloth on his chest.

Then he bent down again, took out a pair of shoes out of nowhere, and looked at Su Mi coldly.Su Mi reluctantly took off the old cloth shoes on her feet, and stepped into new shoes.

At the end, the man's eyes fell on Su Mi's lion tail again, he took out another small can of face powder from his arms, and handed it to Su Mi.

"Tsk, why are you still so annoying." Su Mi said while taking the powder.

"God, I'm sorry to trouble you." The man's thin lips sounded as if the words of a radio anchor were correct.

Su Mi turned her head to look at the direction where Shiyu was standing, turned around involuntarily, and turned her back to Shiyu, then grabbed her own tail in front of her, sprinkled some powder on it, rubbed it twice, then stretched out her hand. The powder was changed to a man.

The man took the powder, wiped his hands with a silk cloth, and then nodded slightly to Su Mi:

"Shangshen, please come in and rest for a while." The man looked at Shi Yu again, "I'll go in and get a new suit for Mr. Shi. Mr. Shi is tired all the way. There is hot water in the room for you to take a shower first."

It was the first time for Shi Yu to be called "Mr. Shi" in such a serious manner, and he was still a little uncomfortable for a while, but seeing the meticulous look of the man, he couldn't even say a word of rejection.So he changed his shoes and entered the courtyard with Su Mi.

-

Shi Yu and Su Mi walked into the yard with the man, and saw that the front yard in the garden was a path paved with wooden boards, with cobblestones on both sides, and there was no trace of dust on each stone. Phosphorescent.

A small landscape was made in the corner of the courtyard, with a stone table and two stone benches, and a potted exotic pine plant on the table.

The man led Su Mi and Shiyu into the house, pulled out the cushions, took two teacups and poured hot tea, and let them sit down:

"I'm going to get some new clothes and put some hot water. Mr. Shi can go to the room on the west side of the backyard to take a bath later."

Su Mi sat crookedly on the cushion, stood up with one leg, put her elbow on her knee, and reached for the teacup:

"I know, I know, let's go."

The man glanced at Su Mi, walked up to him, forcibly pulled out the cushion under his buttocks, and replaced him with a low stool:

"If Shangshen can't sit properly, let's sit on this bench, it won't be too indecent."

After finishing speaking, the man took a small plate of tea and food for Shiyu and put it next to the teacup:

"Mr. Shi take it slowly, Zhu Li will be back in a while."

After Zhu Li's figure disappeared around the corner, Su Mi let out a long sigh of relief, pushed the stool aside, pulled up another cushion, and resumed the previous sitting posture. Grabbed a small handful of tea:

"Is this guy quite annoying?"

Shi Yu looked at Su Mi's relieved expression, and remembered that the person in front of him was forced to grab the powder on his tail hair, and couldn't help but pursed his lips to hold back his smile:

"I think Li Zhu is pretty good. Can I buy that fragrance powder in the world?"

Su Mi couldn't help but pause when she threw tea and food into her mouth, then flicked her tail and turned her head slightly:

"If I don't wash my fur in time, it will always be as shiny as ever."

Shi Yu looked like Su Mi who was having a bit of a temper, couldn't help but smile a little harder, got up and sat beside Su Mi, reached out and grabbed his tail and touched it in the palm of his hand, then lowered his head and kissed it lightly. Shaggy tail tip:

"Well, your fur is the cleanest."

Then Shi Yu raised his head and looked at the slightly stunned Su Mi with a smile.

Su Mi shook her tail, lost her mind, and wanted to hug Shiyu and give her a good kiss. Why is this little guy getting more and more courageous.

However, just when Su Mi wanted to put his idea into practice——

"Hey, the hot water has been put away, Mr. Shi can go to take a bath, and the new clothes are also placed next to the bucket."

Shi Yu looked at the shriveled lion, couldn't help but smiled, then got up, thanked Li Zhu and went to the backyard.

-

"You did it on purpose." Su Mi sat back on the cushion dissatisfied, and lit a cigarette, "No wonder Queen Mother Xi avoids you every day."

"I just asked Shangshen to pay attention to my manners." Li Zhuli washed Shiyu's used tea set, took out a small cup, poured a cup of tea, and sat opposite Su Mi, "Shangshen's matter Zhu Li also knows better, presumably Shangshen came here this time to seal the matter of sassafras, if there is any need, Zhu Li will do his best."

"Your ruby." Su Mi put down the teacup, raised her eyelids, and said in a calm voice.

"God knows that it is impossible to give this ruby ​​from Zhu Wei." Zhu Li sat up straight, lowered his eyes, and took a sip of tea, as if he didn't hear Su Mi's slightly threatening tone.

Su Mi stared intently at Li Zhu, and couldn't help exuding an oppressive aura from her body. In a moment, the teacup in Li Zhu's hand broke into two halves.
