Nocturnal

Ali has been in a coma.

Qing Ning said that although her soul is still a little turbulent, it is relatively stable in general.Zhao Qing's residual consciousness is very weak, or she doesn't have any deep obsession with being alive, and she gave up control of this body without much struggle.Then came the long fusion process of Ali's soul and body.

Rong Xin insisted on bringing her back to the Badaoling Farm, and the reasons were ready-made: the farm is clean, convenient and recuperating, and the aura in the mountains is more abundant.For a big monster like A Li, cultivation is already an instinct, starting with consciousness, it will unknowingly mobilize its tendons and circulate its true energy.From this perspective, the countryside is indeed more suitable for recuperation than the city.Furthermore, Qin Mochi is a complete layman when it comes to matters involving cultivation and spells. If any unexpected situation arises, he still has to rely on Rong Xin to solve it.After much deliberation, Qin Mochi could only reluctantly agree.

As a son, he naturally wanted to stay by A Li's side, and Qing Ning would definitely follow him, needless to say.Li Yedu and Walnut were the only ones left at home, so they simply went with them.Although Li Yedu and A Li are not related, they have been neighbors for more than ten years. A Li watched him grow up, and she has a feeling of affection in it, and it is normal to care about him.

The area of ​​Badaoling Farm is much larger than that of Yangjiazhuang next door.Most of the mountain tops, including a large virgin forest behind the mountain, are within its scope.A lot of fruit trees were planted on the part facing the road in front of the mountain, and a part was turned into a vegetable garden.The farm is in the back mountain, connected to a part of the virgin forest, which is just a place for the domesticated chickens, ducks and geese to walk and catch bugs.In addition to poultry, the farm also raises pigs, cattle, sheep, and many rabbits. The technicians on the farm have bred a new breed of rabbits, which are large in size, plump in meat, and have shorter coats—in short, they are more satisfying to eat , and more convenient.

In the middle of the farm, near the woods, is where Rong Xin and the farm staff live.The staff here are all monsters, they have lived a long life, and they still prefer the lifestyle of the era when they were hardened, so the houses here are all old-fashioned small courtyards, and they are arranged according to their preferences.Rong Xin lived a little further away, surrounded by many trees, very quiet.Qin Mochi felt that the place where he lived was a bit like the small courtyard in the mountains he had seen in Li Yedu's memory. It had the same bamboo fence, log doors and windows, and a few old peach trees planted in the courtyard, but it was larger.

Qin Mochi was in a slightly unhappy mood.

Li Yedu put one hand on Qin Mochi's shoulder, and looked at Rong Xin meaningfully.Only Qing Ning was jumping up and down on the branches of the peach tree heartlessly, looking very happy because she saw the familiar scenery.

Rong Xin gave up the biggest master bedroom to Ali.Qin Mochi has not really seen what a rich man is until today: the mahogany carved furniture in the bedroom, the double-sided woven screen with four seasons flowers in the corner of the room, and the bottles and jars on the multi-treasure shelf, these are rare in the market He placed all the precious antiques around the house casually, and even the mosquito net hooks hanging from both sides of the big bed were made of pure gold.

Rong Xin said that he specially tidied up the master bedroom again, and arranged it according to Ali's preferences, and pointed out the woolen blanket from the Middle East on the floor, "Ali likes peonies the most, and I love them." I specially found someone to order, all of which are hand-woven and dyed. There is also a silk flower pattern, the color is more gorgeous, suitable for laying in front of the fireplace when the weather is cold-A Li said."

It's so frenzied, it's almost blinding!Qin Mochi looked at him with disgust, dare not say the words "A Li said" when talking? !

"I live in the study on the left," Rong Xin didn't notice Qin Mochi's disgust, or he didn't care about it at all, and he still arranged accommodation for the guests with a cheerful vigor, "Xiao Qin and Xiao Li live in the guest room on the right , Qingning..."

Qingning stood on the bedpost and flapped her wings, "I'll just live here, and I won't go anywhere. You don't have to bother to arrange a room for me."

Rong Xin was a little unhappy, "What can you do here? What if you make noise to Ali?"

Qing Ning raised her head proudly, "So what? Could she still be angry with senior brother?"

Qin Mochi thought to himself that he was really a senior brother.For such a long time, he had guessed Qingning's gender countless times, but because of his awkward and irritable personality, he never dared to ask.

Rong Xin's eyes turned into vertical pupils, staring at Qing Ning with an undisguised sinister taste.

Qingning shivered for a moment, moved to the side unnaturally, and said firmly, "I want to stay with Ali."

Qin Mochi couldn't stand it anymore, "As for it? Aren't you brothers?"

Rong Xin sneered, "Who is his brother? My master is Mu Zhenzi."

Qin Mochi, "..."

Didn't it mean that it escaped from Chang'an City back then, and Ali carried it back to the mountain gate?Where did another Muzhenzi appear?

Qing Ning snorted, "Isn't Mu Zhenzi our senior uncle? You are our junior brother! Po Changchong, don't deny this!"

This relationship is quite complicated...

Rong Xin blinked, stretched out his forked tongue and licked his lips, "Well, there is still a while before lunch, I don't mind having some pre-dinner snacks."

Qin Mochi raised his forehead, should these monsters be so childish?

Childish is childish, when faced with threats to her life, Qing Ning was very sensible and timid, and reluctantly moved into the small guest room next to the study.

Qin Mochi's life began to become extremely regular. Every morning after washing up, he would come to A Li's room on time, draw pictures, read books, and sometimes choose some words he liked to read to A Li.He remembered that Qingning said that Ali liked hairpins, and Zhao Qing happened to have smooth and beautiful long hair, so in the following days, Qin Mochi began to concentrate on designing hairpins made of various materials: white jade, jadeite, colored gemstones The mosaic of...

Rong Xin loves the house and Wu, so he simply prepared a set of equipment for him, transformed the guest room into a temporary studio, and let him do it.On the other hand, he can't wait to stay by the bed, for fear of missing the slightest change in A Li's body.Probably because he was too imposing, Qing Ning was a lot more honest, except for occasionally going out to let the wind go, the rest of the time was obediently lying on the bedpost of the carved bed and waiting quietly for A Li to wake up.

Li Yedu threw the crushed steamed buns on the stone platform beside the flower bed, watching a few tits bouncing around and pecking at them. Under the big tree a little farther away, walnuts were lying there and dozing off, with furry dogs on their faces. Show a comfortable expression.Maybe it's because the farm is full of aura as Rong Xin said, and there are many animals here, such as tits, squirrels, and hares. Li Yedu sat here for a long time and saw a pair of little foxes.

A little farther away is Rong Xin's house. There is an emerald green bamboo curtain hanging outside the main door to block out the too strong light in the afternoon.Rong Xin, Qing Ning, and Qin Mochi were all guarding there, because Rong Xin said with certainty that Ali's soul had completely merged with this body, and it was very likely that she would wake up in these two days.

Son, brother, brother, and pets...

It's perfect.

Only he is at odds with all this.He was out of tune with these people, out of tune with this bustling city, out of tune with a way of life he had never experienced before.

Li Yedu tried to find Qin Mochi's figure through the bamboo curtain, but the light in the room was dim, and he couldn't see anything from his angle.Li Yedu had to admit that Qin Mochi belonged to this city. He was no longer the child who sat under the peach blossom tree and listened to the wind and birdsong when he was young and felt happy and satisfied.He has his own career, friends, relatives... and all of these are in this city.

But he doesn't belong here. He has never left the mountains since he was a child, and he still doesn't know how to eat Western food, use WeChat, or use taxi software... and he has been here for several months. for no benefit.

He doesn't belong here.

Li Yedu originally thought that he would feel sad when he thought this way, but in fact, when he came to this conclusion, his heart was very calm, without any disturbance.

Because it's a fact.

No one can refute the facts.

Li Yedu decided to say goodbye to Qin Mochi's mother and son after Ali woke up, and then go back to where he should go. He still has important things to do.As for the wind, flowers, snow and moon...

The life of a monk is so long, such longing and loss may be unavoidable for anyone.

Ali woke up two days later, when it was raining outside, and the energy vibration caused by thunder and lightning in the mountains played a role in promoting her awakening.As Rong Xin said, cultivation has already become a deep-rooted habit for a monster like her. Before her consciousness is fully awake, the weak sense of Qi in her meridians has begun to work on its own with difficulty.

Rong Xin and Qing Ning were pleasantly surprised by this, only Qin Mochi was still a little confused, but when he met Ali's gentle eyes, all doubts were swept away.

Ali was still weak, she looked at Qin Mochi, opened her mouth, and silently made a mouth shape, "Mo Mo, you have grown up."

Qin Mochi's eye circles turned red all of a sudden.

A Li smiled contentedly, and leaned back on the pillow as if she lost her strength, and raised her arm slightly in the direction of Qin Mochi.

Qin Mochi grabbed her hand, tears pattered down the back of her hand.

"Hey," Ali's voice was weak, and he spoke intermittently, "You can't cry...you are...an adult..."

Qin Mochi nodded desperately, but couldn't hold back his tears.Ali looked at him, her eyes were also red.

Since she woke up, Qingning kept her head on her neck. She didn't know whether she was crying or acting like a baby. She refused to raise her head for a long time. The hairs on her tail were trembling. A Li touched both of them. It's useless to handle it, I can only let it nest like this.

Rong Xin came over with a glass of water carefully, and a straw was carefully inserted in the glass.He brought the water glass to Ali's mouth as if holding his breath, and looked at her without saying a word.

Ah Li's eyes were red, but when she saw him like this, she showed a funny expression, and raised her hand to stroke his head.

Rong Xin kept his face sullen in embarrassment, but his expression eased a lot. He held up the cup and carefully served her two sips of water. Seeing that she shook her head to indicate that she didn't want it, she obediently put it aside, and took a tissue to help her wipe it off. Mouth.

Qin Mochi couldn't bear it anymore.Damn it, my mother just woke up, and the love between mother and child has not been finished yet, why are you a passerby rushing over to show off? !

Qin Mochi snatched the tissue from his hand, and said to Ali: "Mother, he wanted to steal your demon pill before, if Li Yedu hadn't saved me, my son would have been killed by him!"

Ali was taken aback.

Rong Xin hurriedly said: "I just wanted to save you..."

A Li raised her hand and slapped him on the head, and wanted to slap him again, but unfortunately she had no strength, so she could only point to the direction of the door with a straight face, and said brightly on her pretty face: Get out.

Rong Xin went out disheartened.

Qin Mochi felt refreshed immediately, and lightly rubbed his cheek against the back of her hand, feeling that the intimacy and warmth of his childhood had returned.
