catch your heart

The night is as black as ink and as cool as water.Mo Qu seems to have turned back into a kitten chasing butterflies in the forest.The butterfly flew into the thick fog ahead, and Mo Qu also fell into the white expanse. The red figure in the white expanse was extremely conspicuous. The man was wearing a red gauze, leaving him with a vague back.

Mo Qu wanted to speak, but felt stuck in his throat.He wanted to run in front of that person, but couldn't move an inch.As a cat, Mo Qu doesn't know what it's like to actually have a cockroach in his throat, but now he can only think of this word.

When Mo Qu was thinking about when to eat fish, when a fishbone got stuck in his throat, the man turned around abruptly.The gorgeous face was expressionless, and there were shattered dead leaves under his feet, and his whole body was filled with icy hatred.

"Chiyan!" Mo Qu cried in his heart.

The man suddenly chuckled, the cold hatred disappeared, and the dead leaves on the ground turned into butterflies, surrounding the red in the middle, and when the butterflies slowly disappeared, a white figure appeared on the spot, exactly the same The same expressionless face, but it makes people feel peaceful for no reason.

The man seemed to be extremely tired, and he smiled at Mo Qu very slowly, then turned around unsteadily until he disappeared.

……

When Mo Qu woke up, Bai Ran by the bed was sitting in Ge Tan's arms and looking at him curiously, the two cats stared at him.

"Get out!" Mo Qu waved to the uninvited ones, one big and one small, the gauze curtain beside the bed was lowered, and Ge Tan and Bai Ran were carried out of the house by a gust of wind.

Ge Tan, who fell heavily and was used as a back by Bai Ran, hugged Bai Ran and grinned and got up: "Tsk, I'm so angry to wake up today, do you understand how to respect the old and love the young?"

"You deserve it, don't you think you can't beat Big Brother Mo Qu?" Bai Ran raised his head from Ge Tan's arms, gloating a bit.

"Damn kid, I can beat all three of them by myself, but I was just unprepared just now." Ge Tan slapped his white-dyed dull hair fiercely, and said angrily.

Mo Qu inside the house has no time to care about the fight between the two outside.He sat on the bed in a daze for a while, and threw his head out of the two figures that couldn't overlap. Since he couldn't figure it out clearly, he might as well check it out.

When Mo Qu pushed open the door, Bai Ran was turning into a kitten and pawing on Ge Tan's shoulder, stretching its white paws into his coat and scratching desperately. With the shoulders off, Bairan simply slipped in from under the clothes and stuck to Ge Tan's back.

...Mo Qu held his forehead, and the two never stopped.

Mo Qu dared to bet that Bai Ran's injury was not even a tickle. Anyway, Ge Qin's skin is rough and fleshy, and it is rare for him to suffer from flesh and blood. In the old days, his master punished him in an unusual way. I don't know if he is now What's more.

Mo Qu walked through the courtyard expressionlessly, leaving the two in the courtyard where they lived yesterday, and went to find Gu Zizhan by himself.He walked through most of the courtyard to Gu Zizhan's other courtyard. When he opened the door, he saw Gu Zizhan and Ziqing sitting at the stone table, talking about something. Both of them were dressed in white, sitting on the white jade table Against the backdrop of the green bamboo forest on the side, it looks extraordinarily peaceful.

Ziqing was smiling slightly at this moment, the corners of her mouth were soft, her complexion was still as pale as yesterday.Seeing Mo Qu approaching, the two of them were about to stand up, but Mo Qu clearly saw Ziqing's body shaking, and quickly reached out to support his shoulder.The touch in his hands was soft, but Mo Qu could clearly feel the thinness of the man.

"Thank you." Ziqing said, as if he could clearly see the doubt in Mo Qu's eyes, and explained: "Since the battle at Langyue Mountain, my body has been a little worse than before. Fortunately, it is not a serious illness, so don't worry about it."

Hearing this, Mo Qu quickly let go of Ziqing, suppressed the doubts in his eyes and the worries he didn't even realize, looked at Ziqing's indifferent and gentle smile, and sat down with some discomfort.

"Just now I discussed with Ziqing that the three of us will go to Guantou Town to investigate carefully to see how weird the town is." Gu Zizhan saw Mo Qu nod, paused and said: "Ge Qin and that little boy The cat stayed on the mountain and accompanied Sisi to look through ancient books to see if they could find information about Ghost Island earlier."

As soon as Gu Zizhan finished speaking, a woman in a yellow shirt appeared dragging Ge Tan, that's right, dragging.Just after Mo Qu left the yard, Gon Sisi went to look for Ge Tan and wanted to take him to the bookstore together. Ge Tan was most afraid of thick books since he was a child, so naturally he refused, so Gie Sisi had to resort to violent means and went all the way. Dragging him over, Bairan lay on Gian Sisi's shoulder and booed.

Gu Zi looked at Gun Sisi's thin and white arms, and at the big man on the ground pretending to be dead, twitching the corners of his mouth and being speechless.Mo Qu turned his face away, it's really unfortunate for the teacher, how can there be such a shameless senior brother.Ziqing just watched Bandit Sisi drag Ge Qin all the way into the study, and said, "Let's go."

Gu Zizhan and Mo Qu came back to their senses, and the three went down the mountain together.After passing through several fairy formations in a row, Ziqing seemed a little unable to hold on. At first, he followed Gu Zizhan to lead the way, but now his face was frighteningly pale.

"Ziqing, you seem to have lost a lot in this search, is it all right?" Gu Zizhan asked worriedly while concentrating on clearing the line.

Mo Qu also looked forward at Ziqing, who was leading the way with Gu Zizhan, as if he was about to fall down at any moment.He couldn't see his face, but he heard him say to Gu Zizhan, "It's okay." His tone was still so calm.

"How about I lead the way alone, and you and Mo Qu go behind." Gu Zizhan was still a little worried.

"Alright." Ziqing agreed, and as expected, she retreated behind Gu Zizhan, walking side by side with Mo Qu, saw Mo Qu who was also worried, and nodded to him with a smile.

Ziqing's face was abnormally pale and weak, but his smile was light and gentle. Mo Qu was a little stunned, but Ziqing quickly turned his head away.Mo Qu really wanted to ask what happened to Ziqing's body, but he didn't know how to ask, so he wanted to reach out his hand to support the swaying body.When the hand was halfway out, a gust of wind blew over. A silver needle was wrapped in the wind, and it went straight towards Ziqing's heart.Mo Qu reacted very quickly, he pulled Ziqing with one hand, wrapped his thin body into his arms, raised his hand to knock out the needle, and wanted to chase in the direction where the silver needle came from.

"Don't go, there are many formations on the mountain, and you are not familiar with them." Gu Zizhan, who was walking in the front, heard the strange movement, and had recovered, just in time to see Mo Qu pulling Ziqing away, and the silver needle had already fallen to the ground.Seeing that Mo Qu had helped Ziqing to stop, Gu Zizhan walked over to pick up the silver needle, looked at it for a while and said, "It's the soul-locking needle of the monster race, and it's usually used to execute evil monsters. Practitioners will have some effect, if the cultivation base is still shallow, I am afraid that they will end up with their souls scattered."

Mo Qu looked at Ziqing who was weak in his arms. It seemed that this person's cultivation base was running low, and his body was so weak for some reason, so he nodded solemnly at Gu Zizhan, and simply gave him a Qing picked her up and motioned Gu Zizhan to continue on her way.

Ziqing was picked up by Mo Qu, and wanted to raise his hands to push him to say no, but found that his hands had no strength, and couldn't help laughing at himself. Looking up from the black skirt on Mo Qu's chest, the man was also looking at him, and his eyes met.Ziqing suddenly felt extremely tired, so he let himself fall asleep.

Seeing that the man closed his eyes, Mo Qu listened carefully to the man's breathing worriedly, and felt relieved when he saw nothing unusual.After recovering, he said to Gu Zizhan, "Do you know who it was just now?"

"I don't know, but it should be someone who is familiar with the formation in the mountain." Gu Zizhan said.

"Why didn't you chase after him?" Mo Qu asked calmly, before Gu Zizhan could answer, he said firmly, "You know who that person is."

Gu Zizhan sighed after hearing the words: "Has anyone ever told you that you are too smart?"

"Who is it?" Mo Qu asked without answering his question.

"I can't tell you yet." Gu Zizhan was determined. Seeing Mo Qu's darkened face, he said again: "It's an enemy, not a friend, but it has nothing to do with the teacher, so forgive me for not being able to elaborate."

Hearing the words, Mo Qu was thoughtful, but didn't say anything, just nodded, then looked down at Ziqing in his arms, his face paled, and followed Gu Zizhan to continue down the mountain.
