The smell of hot food finally called Ximen Chuuxue's attention.

His eyes swept over the food on the table, the clear water in the cup in his hand, and the boats he was staying in, and finally fell on Mei Jingxian.

Mei Jingxian raised her hand and brushed her long hair, which was wet with salt grains, behind her back, and then took a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Ximen Chuuxue, "Eat."

Ximen Chuuxue didn't move at all, and after a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "Is that just a skill in the sleeve? Are you... are you an exile from the sky? Or a spirit from the mountains?"

In the past, Ximen Chuuxue would never say such absurd words.

But he saw with his own eyes that Mei Jingxian waved his hand and transformed into the boat under them and the table of hot food and clear water, all of which subverted his previous cognition, and also made him question the identity of the person in front of him .

Seeing Ximen Chuuxue ask this sentence with a serious face, Mei Jingxian was slightly stunned, a little funny in her heart, "Didn't I say it before?"

His eyes flashed suddenly, his long and narrow phoenix eyes were squinting, and a mysterious and secretive smile was raised on the corner of his lips. With the winding black hair that was wet and attached to his body, he was stunned in the bright daylight when the sun was shining brightly. There was a bit of spookiness.

Even the clear and peaceful voice in the past is now soft and cold as if whispering a ghost: "I am a water ghost, a water ghost who can drag you into the water and drown..."

Before the words were finished, one hand was already grasped, and immediately after that, another hand appeared on the face.

Ximen Chuixue was expressionless, grabbed his hand with one hand, and gently rubbed his face with the other hand, from the pink peach blossoms on his eyebrows to the soft and delicate lips, the slightly forceful and presumptuous movements just brought out a bit of teasing means.

"Your body is hot." His slightly callused fingertips rubbed hard on the light-colored lips, until they were pressed into a deep red, and he said in a low voice: "Not long ago I I just touched it, and the breath here... is also hot."

Finally, Ximen Chuuxue concluded in a deep voice, "You are not a ghost."

Mei Jingxian: ...

As Ximen Fuxue said, he is hot, and at this moment he is so hot that he almost explodes in place.

Mei Jingxian didn't know what was going on, since he was in the sea just now, he still had the courage to take the initiative to get close to the other party, and made a move that he had never done before, but now facing a casual move by the other party, he couldn't even speak It's really disappointing not to say a word.

The corners of his eyes were red, and he was at a loss by Ximen Chuuxue's sudden action, but just now he had the bad intentions to scare others, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with the other party's confirmation of his identity in this way.

He quickly turned his head to avoid the hand on his face, covered his hot face with one hand, and wished he could jump into the sea to cool down immediately, but on his face he changed the subject calmly, "...let's eat first, food It's going to be cold."

Seeing his red ears, Ximen Chuuxue's lips curled into a faint smile.

The two of them finished their meal in silence, the scorching hot air slightly softened, and it was obvious that it would be dusk soon.

The boat drifted unsteadily on the sea surface, Mei Jingxian was not in a hurry to find the direction at the moment.

The clothes on the two of them were almost dry, but no matter how beautiful and neat their clothes were soaked in the sea, they became wrinkled and clumped, and their bodies were covered with salt particles. Ximen Chuuxue's spotless white clothes were even more so. Has turned yellow.

Mei Jingxian couldn't bear the uncleanness of her body, so she took out a wooden bucket from her backpack and filled it with water, took out the scented dew, bath beans, towels and other things for washing, put them under the top cover one by one, and took out a white silk to put on the top cover. Put up a cover in front of the top cover.

After giving way to Ximen Chuuxue, he went in to wash and change clothes by himself.

After a while, I changed to a bucket of water, and Ximen Chuuxue went in to wash it.

After the other party changed his clothes, he pulled away the hanging white silk and came out, Mei Jingxian was speechless for a moment.

The clothes Ximen Chuuxue is wearing now are the spare clothes he used to put in his backpack, but the clothes that fit him very well are suddenly a size smaller on Ximen Chuuxue.

The other party tugged at the blue collar, frowning slightly, "It's a little tight."

Mei Jingxian twitched the corners of her mouth, picked up his white dress and her gorgeous women's dress and put them into the wooden bucket, planning to wash them and change them again.

Not to mention how uncomfortable Ximen Chuuxue is wearing clothes that are one size smaller at the moment, just say that he is still playing the role of Princess Yujian. A set of women's clothing must be kept for now.

He filled the bucket with water and was about to wash his clothes when his hand was held by another hand.

Seeing Ximen Chuuxue's slightly frowned brows, he smiled helplessly, "Master Ximen, although we are drifting in the sea now, it is not impossible to encounter a fleet of rescue ships. If someone sees our current clothes, I am afraid It will arouse suspicion, in order to prevent side effects, it is best to change into the original clothes as soon as possible."

Ximen Chuixue pulled the barrel, "I'll do it."

Mei Jingxian grabbed the other side of the barrel and looked at him suspiciously, "You know how to wash?"

No wonder Mei Jingxian was suspicious, but Ximen Fuixue was no different from an ascetic monk in pursuing kendo, but the other party was a rich man who owned a whole mountain of plum trees and dozens of pastry shops, and a group of thoughtful people at home Servant, does such a rich man know how to wash clothes?

Ximen Fuxue asked without answering, "You will?"

Mei Jingxian got stuck.

Of course he does the laundry.

The one with washing machine and laundry detergent.

— But there is no washing machine and laundry detergent here.

He began to think about how his previous clothes were washed.

In the Tang Dynasty, Xiangzhi Villa had a special servant who washed clothes. When he arrived in Daming, he also invited a woman who came to clean the house on a regular basis in Yangzhou. The clothes were also washed together.

With Mei Jingxian's hesitation, Ximen Chuuxue snatched the barrel in his hand.

He stared at the other party in a daze as he broke half of the bath beans and threw them into the barrel, then took the oar from the side and punched them into the barrel, and quickly stirred them in circles.

Mei Jingxian saw that the clothes in the bucket were almost shaken out of the afterimage of the windmill, and couldn't help secretly applauding the Ximen Fuxue brand washing machine.

After a while, Ximen Chuuxue took out the clothes from the bucket, and poured the water into the sea.

Mei Jingxian watched the light red water pouring into the sea, and suddenly had a very bad premonition in her heart.

He took Ximen Chuuxue's original white coat and unfolded it, only to see clusters of red marks appearing on the original snow-white coat.

Mei Jingxian: ...

——He actually forgot what his mother said before, red clothes and white clothes cannot be washed together.

Ximen Chuuxue also saw the dazzling red, and was silent for a while.

Mei Jingxian silently hung the changed white dress to dry under the eaves of the roof, and took the remaining gold-red dress from Ximen Chuuxue's hand.

The luxurious silk and satin clothes are still bright in color, but the exquisite gold thread embroidery on it has been hooked, and even the exquisitely crafted belt has been broken in two from the middle, leaving only the fringe embroidery on the edge. .

Mei Jingxian silently hung this women's outfit under the eaves.

It was almost dusk at this moment, and the scorching sun gradually subsided. Mei Jingxian sat down on the deck of the boat and poured a cup of tea, "Which direction do you think we should go?"

"To the east." Ximen Chuuxue sat down opposite him, because the clothes on his body were a little tight, he had to change his position a little, and continued: "This sea area is too far from the shore, Shi Tianwang's power is in the southeast."

Mei Jingxian understood what he meant.

They went out to sea for several days, and although Bai Yunsheng almost kept leading them around in circles afterwards, they were obviously approaching where Shi Tianwang was.

There are few ships sailing in Shi Tianwang's sphere of influence. Under Bao Ji's planning, Lu Xiaofeng and others also fell into the sea. If they are safe and sound, they are either still floating in the sea at this moment, or they have already fallen into the hands of Shi Tianwang or Bao Ji .

They must meet Zhui Ming as soon as possible, then they can only follow the original route.

Although they don't know the exact location of Shi Tianwang, but the general direction is correct, no matter how long the delay will be, they will finally reach the destination of this trip.

The night was getting dark, but neither Mei Jingxian nor Ximen Chuuxue felt sleepy. One of them was paddling, and the other was lying on the board of the boat watching the flickering stars in the sky.

Mei Jingxian suddenly let out a sigh, "I haven't seen the stars for a long time."

Ximen Chuuxue looked up at the star-studded sky, and responded softly.

His face was slightly soft under the bright starlight, and Mei Jingxian looked up at him, feeling joy and peace that she had never had before.

The corners of his lips raised unconsciously.

"Master Ximen, do you really have no doubts about what I have done today?"

Ximen Chuuxue turned his head and saw his eyes as bright as stars.

After a moment of silence, he slowly raised the corners of his lips.

Mei Jingxian was startled by his rare smile when she suddenly heard him speak in a low voice.

"Walking together in Bashu, I thought you were a fox demon who confuses people's hearts. On the top of the Forbidden City, I thought you were an immortal who fell from the moon." He said calmly, "Later, I found out that you are a real person. "

Mei Jingxian savored the meaning of his words, and besides being embarrassed, the smile on her face deepened.

He chuckled twice, and deliberately misinterpreted: "So I was not even a human being in your eyes before?"

Ximen Chuuxue looked at him and said expressionlessly: "How can ordinary people be like you."

Mei Jingxian was puzzled, "What is this?"

Ximen Chuuxue's expression was indifferent, "If I say it out loud, you'll have to cover your face again and keep silent."

Mei Jingxian understood what he meant, and subconsciously wanted to refute, but she was really a little afraid that the other party would say something that would make her feel ashamed and covered her face, so she kept her mouth shut.

He paused, feeling a little dissatisfied in his heart, "Ximen Chuuxue, you really are a duplicity person."

"Where do you start?"

Mei Jingxian snorted softly, and said leisurely: "Some people look serious and upright on the outside, but in fact they are very ghostly inside, even more ghostly than Lu Xiaofeng, they really have different appearances."

Recalling how he suffered from Ximen Chuuxue in the past few days, every time he wanted to tease him on the spur of the moment, it seemed that he was the one who suffered in the end.

He has now realized that this is a dark-hearted guy.

"Duplicity?" Ximen Chuuxue repeated these words in a low voice, and suddenly replied, "Why don't you?"

Mei Jingxian was dissatisfied, "Where am I being inconsistent?"
