India

On the way back, Mo Nan was in a daze all the time, and he didn't even hear Mrs. Zhang calling him.

It wasn't until he returned to Mrs. Zhang's residence that his wandering mind gradually came back.

"Now you know you regret it?"

A cold sarcasm came into his ears, which made him wake up a lot, and the voice came from Ji Guiran who was beside him.Mo Nan met his eyes, then snorted nonchalantly.

"Whoever regrets, it's too late to be happy." He almost stuck out his tongue at him.

"Oh? Then how do I see that you seem to be too scared to die?"

"Bah, you read wrong."

Mo Nan planned to stay away from him as he spoke, but before he took a few steps, Ji Guiran pulled him back, and he said with a serious expression: "It's too late for you to regret it now."

"..." These words sounded so threatening.

"Did you hear?"

A more menacing word.

"...Hey," Mo Nan raised his eyebrows as if he finally had a reaction, "Have you agreed? Is it possible... Is Mr. Ji worried that I will be in danger?? This kind of heart is really unbearable..."

Ji Guiran didn't hear him finish his indecent words, clicked his tongue inaudibly, and interrupted him: "Take it as it is."

"I can't bear it!..." Mo Nan almost backed away in fright.It took him a while to look up at the sky, and murmured, "Well... the sun today... did it come out of the ground?"

"I didn't joke with you."

"..."

Mo Nan had no choice but to be stunned for a while, and then said with little confidence: "I know, but... I have promised to others, so I can't go back on my word now, right?"

What he said was reasonable, no matter how much Ji Guiran tried to warn him, he could only snort coldly, his voice full of contempt and contempt for him.

I don't know if she noticed the strangeness of the two of them, but at this time Mrs. Zhang came over to talk to Mo Nan.She glanced at the two of them cautiously, feeling their froze atmosphere, and said, "That... Mr. Mo."

"kindness?"

"That's right, Fei Po was able to agree to this matter... I was also very surprised," she said a little embarrassedly, "Maybe I was too impulsive after listening to you, now that I think about it, I involved the two of you in this matter." Things are not going well, and I don't know what will happen after this year's grand ceremony... Mr. Mo, if you feel troubled, you can give up."

"This..." It was obvious that Mrs. Zhang wanted to give him a step down.

Mo Nan thought, if he followed this path and refused the job right now, he would have nothing to do with any sacrifices in the future, and what happened would not affect him... He began to hesitate.

To be honest, most of the people who brought up this proposal at that time did not see that Mrs. Zhang was in a difficult situation, but that he thought that this matter had a certain connection with the seal snake, so he made such a reckless decision.

Although I am afraid now, I want to find some clues along the way, so that I can get rid of this wandering life as soon as possible, and return to Yeguo to live his carefree life. If I give up this hard-won opportunity now, I don't know if I can still find the snake...

Just when his thoughts fell into a kind of entangled chaos, Mrs. Zhang spoke again: "From my point of view... I think Fei Po is a little messy. This kind of major event is changed casually, which has never happened before. Condition."

Then she changed her mind and said, "Maybe, there is something on you that attracts her gaze, or the snake god's gaze."

This sentence is like a light tap, like a small mallet hitting a dull clock, giving off a slightly ethereal echo.

The snake god, the seal snake, and the old Taoist priest who appeared inexplicably, seemed to be connected into one by him as separate clues.Mo Nan hesitated more and more, he hesitated and raised his eyes to look at Ji Guiran, with the intention of discussing with him in his eyes.

When he saw Ji Guiran's contemptuous gaze, this intention to discuss was cut off.

This... Didn't this person just say that he was worried about himself? ?Mo Nan's heart seemed to be full of lively snakes.Not to be outdone, he returned a more disdainful look, and then fell into deep thought.

After thinking for a long time, he finally came to a conclusion that what a man needs to venture into the world is this kind of daring and courageous posture.

So he said: "It's okay, I can come."

"Mr. Mo is serious?" Mrs. Zhang was surprised.

"Really," Mo Nan laughed nonchalantly, "It happens that I'm also a little interested in your snake god, I'm not afraid."

"Oh... oh, that's fine..." Mrs. Zhang murmured in disbelief, "Then... Mr. Mo, come with me, and I will entrust you with everything about the sacrificial dance. My mother-in-law taught it herself, but she has entrusted it to me, so let me do it."

"En." Mo Nan responded, and was about to follow her into the house when he was suddenly grabbed by a force. He was caught off guard by a burst of pain, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the force. Facing a pair of gloomy eyes.

"Why?" He said angrily.

The master of strength didn't let go, but clenched a little more.But Mo Nan could clearly see a few words from Ji Guiran's face: You are messing around.

"I'm not fooling around." Mo Nan pretended to reply confidently.

"..."

"Isn't this related to what we're looking for? We always have to face it...and it's me who does the hard work," he said quite reasonable, "don't be so unhappy."

Facing the words of Mo Nan's suspicious gaze, Ji Guiran was noncommittal, and in the end he just left a tantrum-like sentence: "It's up to you."

Then he stopped looking at him and walked out of the room, leaving a back view that Mo Nan felt was angry for him.

"..." Mo Nan muttered softly on the spot, "Child, you..."

But it wasn't a day or two since Ji Guiran was inexplicably angry, and it wasn't once or twice that the two had conflicts.Mo Nan had already seen the strangeness, and could even ignore it. He didn't take it seriously, and followed Aunt Zhang to the back room.

Instead of delving into Ji Guiran's weird temper, it's better to start with the immediate matter.Mo Nan pouted in his heart.

When Ji Guiran went out of the house with a sullen expression, he ran into Su Liyan and Su Yan who were about to leave.When Su Liyan looked back, she saw a gloomy face. She was taken aback for a moment, and then she opened her mouth embarrassingly.

"Master Ji, this is... what's wrong?"

"...It's nothing." Ji Guiran slightly withdrew his bad face, "It's just a waste of time with an idiot."

"..." Su Liyan stared at him for a while, then asked tentatively, "Did you quarrel with Mr. Mo?"

Ji Guiran raised his brows, as if he was a little surprised to be discovered by her, and then nodded in admission.

"It must be Mr. Mo's decision this time," she said. "In my opinion, he was a little impulsive... Maybe there are some reasons for it."

"You guessed right."

"Thank you for the compliment... This is a habit I've developed in the past." Su Liyan smiled, and the afternoon sun shone on her delicate and clean face, making her smile softer and more natural.

Quite good looking.This is the impression that the person in front of him left on Ji Guiran.

"Just now, forgive me for saying a few more words," she continued, "I think...the two of you don't need to have conflicts because of this matter. I think Mr. Mo should have his own reasons for doing things..."

"I know."

"Then why do you still...?"

"He made trouble for no reason."

Hearing this, Su Liyan couldn't help laughing out loud.She forced herself to straighten her face: "How do you say that?"

"..." Ji Guiran didn't give a detailed answer, and fell into silence.

"Ji Gongzi seems speechless to explain, it must be that there is something wrong with the entanglement between you."

"what is the problem?"

She shook her head: "How do I know the specifics? I think you can calm down and have a good conversation. There are many things in this world that are caused by unnecessary reasons or inexplicable misunderstandings, which make the future development rotten. But this is obviously avoidable... right?"

"..."

"Besides, there is nothing hard to overcome between best friends," she added jokingly, "The world still says that husband and wife quarrel at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed, let alone between you two."

Ji Guiran's brows twitched a little when he heard this, Su Liyan's words in front of him made him hesitant to speak, he always wanted to explain something, but felt that he couldn't explain it.After a while, he murmured, "You're right."

Suddenly, he felt more stroking on his head, like a pair of slender hands gently rubbing his hair, Ji Guiran raised his eyes and saw Su Liyan in front of him stroking his hair, he looked at it in a little surprise she.

"Let's talk to Mr. Mo." Su Liyan said, and suddenly realized that her movements were not quite right, she quickly withdrew her hand, showing embarrassment, and said in a panic, "Yes... I'm sorry, teach Xiaoyan how to get used to it. Sex...just..."

"It's okay." Ji Guiran didn't think this action was too much, but just felt a little uncomfortable.

"Hmm... well, as long as you don't care..."

Seeing Su Liyan at a loss, like a servant girl who has done something wrong in the mansion, he couldn't help but feel a little funny, his calm face softened a little, and his cold eyebrows and eyes became a little more gentle.

"Then I'll take Xiaoyan away first..." Su Liyan said shyly, "If you have any questions, my lord... just go to Feipo's and find me."

"Ah."

When Su Liyan pulled Su Yan out, she glanced back at Ji Guiran, and it happened that the two of them turned and left at the same time, she only saw Ji Guiran turning his head back, with a gentle look in his last look , as the bright light came into her eyes.

The sunshine in late spring was so bright that she couldn't help being a little dazed.

……

back room.

When Mo Nan took the clothes brought by Aunt Zhang, he also fell into a state of bewilderment.

"Wait..." He unrolled the clothes in his hands in disbelief, checked them over and over again, "This... No matter how you look at it, it's..."

"This... is the clothes to wear."

It was a thin red long dress. Compared with the snake god in memory, the color was a little lighter, and the material seemed lighter. If a woman wore it, it would definitely bring out a gorgeous and pleasant temperament.

"But I'm a man!"

"...I know," Mrs. Zhang explained helplessly, "but it's my turn this year, and this is the clothes I prepared."

"..."

Mo Nan choked for a long time before asking weakly: "Can... can I change it? For example, you have some spares..."

"It really doesn't."

"..."

"Mr. Mo, why don't you try changing it now? If the size doesn't fit, you can have it adjusted."

...so can you make me a man's dress? !Mo Nan roared in his heart, but judging from Mrs. Zhang's tone, it seemed that the clothes were very elegant, more expensive than his eldest son, and it seemed impossible to change them.

"I..." His mouth twitched, "Let me try..."

"That's good," Mrs. Zhang took another white undershirt and put it in his hands, "This is for wearing inside."

Sure enough, it is quite particular.Mo Nan muttered to himself, and took it from her hand.

After stuffing him with clothes, Mrs. Zhang walked out of the room consciously, and told him to get dressed before calling her in. She also told him kindly that if she didn't want her to see him, he could change back and call her again.

It's so caring, the caring Mo Nan just wants to hit the wall and calm down.

When the slight sound of closing the door sounded, Mo Nan stared at the clothes in his hands in a daze, hesitating whether to change them first before hitting the wall, or hit the wall first and then change.

After thinking for a while, he resolutely made a brave decision.

A man can bend and stretch, no one will see anyway, at worst, just wear it for a while and then take it off.Mo Nan thought about something, and began to undo his clothes.

The environment in the room was silent, and the sound of the rubbing of the cloth became clearer. With a tangled expression, he took off his underwear, exposing his bare skin to the air, and felt a slight chill, and he couldn't help shivering.

He picked up the light red long gown and was about to put it on, when he thought of something, he threw it aside and grabbed the white undershirt.

Just as he was about to put it on unwillingly, there was a sudden creak behind him, the sound of the door being opened from the outside.

"?!" Scared, Mo Nan quickly hugged the clothes in his hand, lowered his head and looked back embarrassingly.

He was wondering if Mrs. Zhang had come in again, but when he raised his eyes, he saw a familiar face at the door, and the two looked at each other with surprise.

"..."

"..."
