I have flowers, do you have pots?

"Brother, are we going to stay here?"

Looking at the back of Jin Hong leaving quickly, Mo Zhi moved to the side of the little brother, and asked softly curiously.Mu Xianyu rubbed his head, smiled and shook his head and said: "We don't stay here, we will sneak back to the capital after we arrange things."

"Back to the capital?"

The little flower demon was taken aback, stared at Mu Xianyu who looked serious with wide eyes, and couldn't help whispering: "But there are still many things that haven't been clarified—are we going back now?"

"If we stay here, we will never be able to figure it out—all the weird things we encountered in the south of the Yangtze River are actually rooted in the capital."

Mu Xianyu shook his head slightly, and replied slowly, with a helpless smile in his eyes: "Besides - if I stay here any longer, I will almost forget who I am. The descendants of Xuanwu, Lu In this world, these things are too ethereal and hard to find. I want to go back and find my true identity, that identity that is destined to be impossible to change even if no one admits it..."

Mo Zhi blinked, hesitantly nodded lightly, and then whispered: "Then what should Brother Ming and Brother Xiaoqing do? They don't know we're going back..."

"Since he has been following me all the time, only by keeping him here can we keep the second brother safe, and follow us back if we don't ask the second brother."

Mu Xianyu spoke in a warm voice, stroking the little guy's forehead, looked at him and said slowly and patiently: "We have to go secretly this time, and we can't be known by others—now there is a golden man in the government office." Hong, I can feel relieved to some extent. At least he can help me for ten and a half months, and when the second brother finds out that we are not there, we may have returned to the capital."

The little flower demon obviously couldn't fully comprehend his intentions, but she was sensible and didn't ask too many questions, she just raised her head seriously and said: "Little brother, if you want to go back to the capital, I have a way to go back right away."

"Is there still such a way?"

Mu Xianyu couldn't help being slightly surprised, looking curiously at the little guy whose expression was serious and not joking, and then said after a little hesitation: "After all, I am still a human body now, unlike you who can change at will, and can also be taken by you. Do I have to go back?"

"It should be possible - I've actually never tried it, so I'm not fully sure..."

Mo Zhi pursed his lips, his tone was still a bit hesitant, he clenched his fists before he made up his mind and raised his head and said, "Little brother, do you still remember the basin you gave me?"

"Of course I remember. We also agreed that in the future, my little brother will open a pottery workshop and cook pots for you to sleep in."

Mu Xianyu responded with a light smile, and took Mo Zhi's shoulders and asked him to sit beside him: "But——what does that basin have to do with our return to the capital?"

"There is a hole at the bottom of all the flower pots. My little brother doesn't know, but in fact - all the holes lead to the same place."

The little flower demon raised her head earnestly, and explained solemnly with hand gestures: "I can't tell exactly where it is, but I heard that as long as you enter there, find the right hole and drill out, you can get there very quickly." Another place—it seems that monsters of the vegetation type will use this method to visit around. It's just that I didn't finally get a pot until I met my little brother, so I haven't tried whether it can work..."

"It turns out that all the holes lead to one place? I thought those holes were made for ventilation and water leakage..."

Mu Xianyu shook his head in disbelief, and couldn't help sighing in a low voice.Mo Zhi tilted his head slightly and thought about it carefully, but then added earnestly: "Actually, it can also be used to ventilate and leak water—it's just that a powerful monster like me won't be flooded because of too much water." dead!"

Seeing the little guy's confident and proud appearance, Mu Xianyu couldn't help laughing, coughed twice to suppress his smile, straightened his expression and nodded seriously: "Of course our Mo Zhi is very good, we can Turned into a human form and ran around, so naturally I won’t be flooded by a few ladles of water..."

The little flower demon who was praised couldn't help turning red on her face, pursed her lips and lowered her head awkwardly, but her delicate eyebrows and eyes had already bent into a joyful arc, and her enthusiasm became much higher in the blink of an eye : "I can go find a basin first—when no one sees, I can take my little brother to drill in through the hole under the basin to visit!"

"Okay, then we're leaving tonight."

Mu Xianyu nodded with a smile, rubbed the little guy's head again, and watched the back of him running out to find the flower pot, with a helpless and gentle smile in his eyes.But it was only for a moment, and it turned into a depressing solemnity.

He had never imagined that in such a short period of time, he would first know that his father's body was poisoned with no cure, and then he knew that the man had sacrificed himself to Bi Fang, but he still didn't know the price. Why exactly.

The shadow that had always been extremely vague in his memory seemed to suddenly become worrying.Even though he tried his best to restrain himself from thinking wildly, he still couldn't help worrying and apprehensive, and even faintly feared to hear a more cruel answer.

——That was his royal father after all, he couldn't remain indifferent after all...

"Do you know that when I look at your expression now, I feel like my cousin is about to be snapped by you?"

Jin Hong's voice came from outside the bamboo forest, Mu Xianyu raised his head to look at him, shook his head and said with a helpless chuckle: "Stop teasing me—I'm just bluffing your stupid uncle, the magistrate is What an official, I am such a powerless prince, even if I hold the imperial gold medal, I can't really move him. How did you go to see it just now, is he stupid?"

"I still know people, but it is indeed a bit weird. It seems that I am clear for a while and confused for a while, and what I say is upside down. First I told them to search for the people in Zhang's house, and then said that the uncle did not give an order to call Zhang's house. This kind of unconscionable thing, my uncle of the Jin family passed away many years ago, and I don't know who the uncle he is talking about."

Jin Hong shook his head and replied disapprovingly, with a somewhat unreasonable inexplicable tone in his tone.Mu Xianyu raised his eyebrows involuntarily, looked at Jin Hong's seemingly ignorant expression, nodded slightly and said: "Thank you, I will investigate after I return to Beijing."

"It is reasonable for us people to not worry about such things. We cultivators are actually the same as monsters. There are only two things that we should pay attention to most. One is the aura of heaven and earth, and the other is luck. Once your own luck If you get mixed up with the fate of the country, it is easy to be implicated by the fate of the country in reverse. If the world is peaceful and the weather is smooth, it will be fine, and if there is any change, you will suffer along with it."

Jin Hong patted him on the shoulder, and mentioned something cryptically, but he didn't go further, just sat aside casually with his clothes lifted: "Where did that little guy go? I thought I was I didn't notice him, but after a closer look, I realized that he really didn't seem to be there..."

"He's gone to get a pot—do you have any pots here?"

Thinking that the little guy was not familiar with the government office after all, Mu Xianyu also decided to help the little guy inquire about it. It wouldn't be a bad thing if he got a few more pots.At any rate, it can be used as a backup, so as not to find a fake flower pot to drill.But Jin Hong didn't know what he wanted the flower pot for, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed in his eyes, he stroked the back of his head in puzzlement and said, "Why do you need a flower pot if you have nothing to do—do you have to plant flowers everywhere you go?"

"You don't have to worry about it - at least find me some flowerpots, I'll be of great use."

Mu Xianyu couldn't help but burst out laughing, but he didn't want to explain too much to him, but just put on a decent posture as an imperial envoy and gave instructions.Jin Hong was so excited by his attitude that he gasped, but then he remembered that he still had to rely on this job to make a living, but he could only grit his teeth and hold his fists together: "Yes, yes, this subordinate obeys—" Do you have any other orders? If so, the subordinates will also help you to do it together, so as not to have any other tricks when you turn around..."

"There's nothing else, just help me with this matter first."

Mu Xianyu smiled lightly and waved his hands, but another thought came to his mind, he stopped Jin Hong who was about to leave, rubbed his fan bone and said slowly: "I still have some things to investigate, I may not be in the government office for a long time Stay in the middle. You said to the outside world that I will stay behind closed doors, and stop it for a few days if I can. After all, don’t let people know that I sneaked out, understand?"

"It's okay--then I say that to the magistrate, or do I say that to everyone?"

Both of them were reluctant to come according to the regulations. Jin Hong understood his unwillingness to be stared at, and nodded happily in response, and thoughtfully helped him think a little more.But Mu Xianyu also nodded to him appreciatively, smiled and said unhurriedly: "Just say that to everyone—anyway, my second brother said that I don't care, it's better for me Do him a favor and tell him to leave it alone."

"You are such a big man, and I really admire your second brother just because your second brother can be so angry with one word."

Jin Hong shook his head helplessly, couldn't help muttering something in a low voice, Mu Xianyu couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly, looked at him curiously and said, "If you admire me, that's fine, why do you admire my second brother?"

"Your second brother hasn't been mad by you until now. Obviously, your second brother's skill is much stronger-I can probably understand now why he can be a prince without a spiritual vein. With such a heart, what should he be?" It all makes sense."

Jin Hong expressed deep sympathy for the prince who had only met once, but he stopped chatting with him, waved his hand, and went to find flowers for the imperial envoy who had been thinking about something all day without complaint. pot.Mu Xianyu waited in the forest by himself for a while, but the little flower demon dawdled back in dejection first, and as soon as she appeared, she threw herself into the little brother's arms aggrieved: "Little brother, I forgot that this is the territory of the Jin family—— If the Jin family can't keep flowers and plants alive, naturally they won't have flower pots..."

"Can't the Jin family keep flowers and plants alive?"

Mu Xianyu couldn't help being slightly surprised, subconsciously said something strange, then suddenly reacted, couldn't help but shook his head and laughed and said: "By the way, Jin Kemu——I forgot about this one too. It's all right, I'll ask Jin Hong to go too Help me find it, if you can’t find it, we’ll go to the street and buy another one.”

The little flower demon hadn't recovered from such a cruel blow, she was so depressed that the leaves almost wilted, and she just nodded listlessly after hearing this.Mu Xianyu smiled and pulled him into his arms, and said softly along his back, "Okay, it's okay... Since Jin's place is not suitable for flowers and plants to grow, then we have to leave as soon as possible—— Wait with little brother for a while, if Jin Hong can find a basin, we will use his, if not, we will go to the street to buy one, okay?"

Hearing that there was no disappointment or blame in the little brother's voice, Mo Zhi's eyes gradually lit up again, he nodded vigorously, and then took out a seal from his sleeve and handed it to him like a treasure: "Little brother, this I accidentally discovered it when I was looking for a pot just now. It smelled like the soil from the capital, and I thought it might be something related to the capital, so I secretly took it here..."

"Did it come from Beijing?"

Mu Xianyu's eyes suddenly flashed a little sharpness, took the seal over, and looked at it carefully in his hand, but for a while it was difficult to see what such reverse engraved patterns were engraved on.Just as he was about to find a piece of paper to print a print on, Mo Zhi at the side had already pulled out a small square of white silk from his sleeve with a tacit understanding, and carefully spread it on the table: "Little brother, come on!" Just print it!"

"We, Mo Zhi, are really smart - in a few days, I'm afraid we'll all be worms in Mr.'s stomach."

Mu Xianyu couldn't help chuckling, rubbed the little guy's head encouragingly, breathed on that side of the seal, and stamped it on the white silk with a little force.When he picked up the seal, four very faint seal characters landed on the white silk, and after he took a closer look, surprise flashed across his eyes.

"Six in eight—"

Although the little flower demon can read characters, she doesn't know much about seal characters after all. She barely guessed the first three characters, but got stuck on the last one.Mu Xianyu shook his hand, and wrote the last seal character on the palm of his hand stroke by stroke with his index finger: "That character reads Huang, which is the word Huang. Liuhe Bahuang——Mo Zhi knows What do you mean?"

"The Eight Desolations—I know the Eight Desolations, which refer to the eight directions between the heaven and the earth. The ancients said, 'Include the meaning of the four seas, and absorb the hearts of the Eight Desolations', which means that they have the ambition to dominate the world."

These days, I have been studying hard with my little brother, and the little flower demon's knowledge has obviously improved by leaps and bounds. She straightened her back with her hands behind her back, and responded fluently, but was entangled in the first two words, and hesitated. Lips no longer open.

Mu Xianyu patted him on the shoulder lightly, nodded with a smile, and said, "It's pretty good to be able to remember one—Liuhe and Bahuang both point to directions, and Bahuang refers to the eight directions with the axis of east, west, and northwest. And Liuhe refers to up, down, left, right, front and back. The ancient man you mentioned just now actually said that "exercise the supremacy and control the Liuhe". Come to refer to the general trend of the world."

"Then—the person who carved this seal, did he want to take over the world?"

Mo Zhi couldn't help being slightly startled, and immediately thought of the past, stepped forward nervously and whispered: "Little brother, I remember that brother Jin Hong also said just now that their family wants to take away the world from my little brother's family..."

"It's possible, but I always feel—their family should not be so ambitious."

Mu Xianyu shook his head in thought, followed the little guy's back softly, and said in a thoughtful and slow voice: "You think, if a family has already made up their minds to rebel, how can they let the direct descendants The descendants hold important official positions in the dynasty, but the talented side line actually has to make a living by being a headhunter? Besides, when I mentioned the master behind him, Jin Shiren was obviously very panicked, which shows that there are at least one of the princes in Beijing. One is connected with both the Yangzhou government and the Zhang family. If they really want to rob the world, they can just rob it openly, and there is no need to lower their status like this..."

The little guy's mind has always been pure, and it's not easy to understand his words, and he rarely gives any response. Although he is analyzing with Mo Zhi, he is more trying to straighten out his thoughts.But this time before he finished speaking, Mo Zhi's eyes suddenly moved, and he frowned and said softly: "But--little brother, gold can overcome wood, but metal produces water. Metal can be married with water of……"

"Heshui system—the Gao family?"

Mu Xianyu had never thought of this level before, and he couldn't help being a little stunned when he heard the words, but his heart sank suddenly: "By the way, I have always wondered who the old Duke is protecting, so that he was deprived of Even the military power refused to explain the situation—but the Gao family is already a famous family with a deep foundation. Even though there have been occasional twists and turns over the years, the favor of the Lin royal family to the Gao family has never diminished. Why would they do such a thing? It's coming..."

Mo Zhi's ability to think at this level was already the limit, and if he wanted to think deeper, he felt that everything he knew had been messed up, and he couldn't figure it out at all.He sighed softly in frustration, and lay down on the stone table listlessly: "I can't think of it either—the human race is really too complicated. If it were us, there wouldn't be so many bloodlines. With a gust of wind, the pollen will be scattered everywhere, whoever receives it will count, and those who cannot receive it will be helped by bees, and seeds can be produced no matter what..."

"Actually, I've always been curious - if the pollen of a red flower is sprinkled on a white flower, what color will the flower of the offspring be, is it pink?"

Although the affairs of the Gao family are also very important, Mu Xianyu still couldn't hold back his strong curiosity, and took the opportunity to ask questions that he had been asking for a long time.The little flower demon was so asked that she couldn't react for a moment, she blinked blankly, thought carefully for a while before shaking her head and said: "Probably not, maybe it depends on whose pollen is stronger - I seem to have A bit of hibiscus blood, but the flowers I bloom are still pure white, and they haven't been abducted by them..."

"So—should it still be counted by type?"

Mu Xianyu pondered for a moment, then nodded as if he had realized something: "Your medicinal effect is indeed more inclined to that of Angelica dahurica. It seems that your ancestor must be a very powerful plant of Angelica dahurica..."

The two of them actually studied the hybridization technology of flowers and plants in such a serious manner, but no one mentioned the Gao family's matter again.Seeing that the season and weather suitable for grafting have been discussed, Jin Hong's rather helpless voice suddenly came from outside the forest: "Is your wood department just not doing business like this every day? You are looking for flower pots and studying flower planting all day long. Are you planning to build a flower bed for us in this government office?"

"Stop talking sarcastic, have you found the flower pot?"

Mu Xianyu laughed helplessly, coughed lightly and propped himself up, and knocked on the table twice lightly.Jin Hong strode in from outside the forest, put three or four flower pots in his arms on the table in one go, brushed his sleeves and sighed: "To tell you the truth, our family is not good at growing flowers. The entire government office is just such a piece of bamboo forest that is still green, and it was only when I went to Jinshui Temple that I begged for it. They said that no matter how hard they tried, they guaranteed that they would not die, and this has been half-dead until now-these flower pots are all If the flowers they raise die and die, you can use them if you don’t think it’s inauspicious, I’m afraid there may be some unjust ghosts of flowers and plants in them..."

"There are no wronged souls. Flowers and plants are very kind creatures, and they will not blame anyone casually!"

The little flower demon couldn't help but darken her face, and retorted unhappily, then turned around and refused to talk to him again.Before Jin Hong could finish his words, he didn't know whether he should continue or not, he just opened his mouth in embarrassment, and then helplessly spread his hands and sighed softly.Mu Xianyu looked helplessly at this heir of the gold line who had a temper and wanted to hurt everyone, but he couldn't help sighing softly, shook his head and said: "I really can't think of it, if Lord Baihu Xing He also has the same temperament as you, how can he and Senior Xuanwu get along happily..."

"what?"

Jin Hong didn't know the messy love history of the Four Holy Beasts, so he blinked blankly when he heard the words, but before he had time to ask, he was dismissed mercilessly by Mu Xianyu: "Okay, okay, I don't have anything to serve here, so go down and watch it—by the way, remember to clean up the head of the Zhang family who is lying in the house. Plants and trees have spirituality, they won't harm people, and there won't be any wronged souls like you said , In contrast, people's hearts are too unpredictable."

"Okay, I can't tell you two alone—what you say is indeed reasonable, just count it as my fault."

Jin Hong shook his head helplessly, but he didn't argue anymore, he just resigned to his fate and went back to tidy up the house.Mu Xianyu gently brought the little guy who was still sulking in front of him, squatted down and looked at him, and gently stroked his forehead: "Are you still angry? It's all wrong with Mr. He's babbling so much, he should have been kicked out-"

"Don't blame little brother..."

Mo Zhi shook his head vigorously, but still couldn't stop his eyes from turning red, he threw himself into his arms and said in a choked voice: "Even if the flowers and plants die, they will turn their bodies into the soil and turn them into fertilizer, so that the newly born flowers and plants will grow stronger. Well—there will be no wronged souls..."

"No, of course not."

Mu Xianyu hugged the little guy's body, patted his back soothingly, and coaxed him patiently.Seeing that the little flower demon in her arms was still unable to cheer up, she thought for a while and smiled slightly: "Why don't we help him develop a memory. Put a eye on all the pelvic floor of his house, and he will probably remember it firmly." It's over—okay?"

The author has something to say: all pots are leaking (1/1) the curse is achieved! (*￣︶￣)
