snake bone

Zhu Tang lowered her head slightly, brushed her cheek with one hand lightly, took away the moisture on her face, forced a few smiles, and said helplessly, "I thought you were really interested in me..."

The tone of this sentence was too dull, Ji Qingliu turned around when he heard the sound, and seeing him so sluggish, he felt happy again for a moment.

Before going to pour two buckets of cold water on Zhu Tang to wake him up completely, he suddenly got up again and walked straight towards him.

Do, what are you doing, could it be that you just have to do it...

It's true that Zhu Tang came over, but as soon as he raised his hands, he began to straighten his clothes again, and the collars were all upright and buttoned properly, and he took his own thicker clothes from the hanger beside him. The robe, it seems, is meant to be worn by him.

"do what?"

"Go for a walk, you can't sleep anymore, you woke up later than last night..."

"What does that have to do with me not being able to sleep?"

"You used to be able to sleep like this in winter?"

"It's common to sleep for hundreds of years." Ji Qingliu was impatient, thinking that everyone in the city knew about their difficult relationship, how could they go out...

"Then let's go out and look for clues. You can't really expect the townspeople to tell us where the monster is. After all, today I..."

"What happened to you today?"

"I saw another puppet."

Ji Qingliu frowned, and for a while, Zhu Tang had to dress him. He thought for a while, then raised his head again, "When? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

As soon as the words come out of my mouth, I feel that I have made a slip of the tongue. What's the use of telling myself, and... it can't be of much help.

Zhu Tang's heart was completely different from what he thought, of course he wanted to tell him everything clearly, so while helping him straighten his clothes, he whispered in his ear, "You were angry with me at that time, where are you?" It’s the way I dare to speak.”

What he said was ambiguous, and his hands happened to be around his waist. At this moment, this person leaned forward slightly, but seemed to be separated by an invisible gap, and the room was filled with candles and silence. His voice was the only one that entered my ears softly.

Ji Qingliu shook his shoulders uncomfortably, feeling like he was about to get goosebumps all over his body, he quickly turned around and got out of his arms, and was about to leave, opened the door, and backed away a lot in fright step, "What are these?"

"Puppet."

"Puppets?!"

Zhu Tang also walked out of the house slowly, and stood shoulder to shoulder with him at the door, looked at the fruits of his labor this afternoon, and then said "hmm" very softly.

You fucking!

Scared me to death!

Ji Qingliu frightened him quite a bit. When he opened the door, he saw three living mortals standing by the door, staring at the door without blinking. It's really...

Zhu Tang watched the expression on his face for a while, then smiled lightly, "I thought I could hear your 'ah'."

Ji Qingliu glanced at him sideways, with a look on his face, "Do you have any brains?"

Zhu Tang put his fist to his mouth with his hand, coughed lightly, and the three "puppet figures" really started to move.

Seeing that the three of them were about to leave, Ji Qingliu pulled Zhu Tang unconsciously, "Tell them to stop first, I was really scared just now, and I didn't take a closer look at their appearance."

Zhu Tang's wrist suddenly warmed up and he froze for a moment, then waved his hand again, and there were three wooden figurines in his hands.Throwing the three little wooden figures out again, there were three more lifelike "people" in the neutral yard.

"It's just a piece of wood. Do you remember what they look like?"

Ji Qingliu was dumb for a moment, and looked at Zhu Tang again.

——In fairy art, it is easy to repair one's own transformation, but it is difficult to turn a stone into a golden point.

Like Zhu Tang, who cut the wood by himself, endowed the wood with spirituality, so that they can be lifelike, and even have some puppets with spiritual thinking... and three of them have been created, and this spirituality should not be easy to maintain.

Thinking about it carefully, he either has high mana and doesn't care about the consumption and maintenance of this little mana at all, or... he is trying to save face.

Zhu Tang looked at You Ji and saw that he had a weird face, and he didn't know where he was thinking, so he couldn't help reminding him, "Go for a walk?"

"it is good."

"En." Zhu Tang nodded and waved his hand at the same time. The three puppets who belonged to him had already left the door first, and then they each separated their routes. Looking at the direction, one of them turned into the main road.

Ji Qingliu was stunned, and then blurted out, "Are you trying to confuse that demon?"

"Not entirely," Zhu Tang smiled, but just didn't tell him the answer, "Guess what?"

As he said that, he stopped at the door again, and picked up a lantern beside the door casually. Ji Qingliu followed him and turned around. Then he was surprised again, thinking when did he get the lantern?

Zhu Tang originally planned to hold it by himself, but for some reason, You Ji kept lingering on it, thinking that when he was making it, he specially polished the wood to make it thinner, so it would not be too difficult to hold it in his hand. It's heavy, so it shouldn't tire his muscles, so he just handed it at the moment, "Why don't you take it?"

Zhu Tang shook his head, "Forget it, it's cold every day, so don't stretch out your hands. If you like it, you can go back to the house and play with it later."

Do you treat me like a three-year-old kid playing with a lantern? !

Ji Qingliu glared at him angrily, without making a sound, just snatched the lamp from his hand, and looked at it carefully.

Zhu Tang wondered why he snatched a lantern to illuminate the road. Seeing that the wind was strong outside, he stretched out his hands in the cold wind so that they would not be damaged by the cold, so he didn't want to go outside again for a while, and just followed him. So stalemate behind the windshield door panel.

Turning the lantern over three or four times in his hand, Zhu Tang hurriedly stopped him when he turned the lantern completely upside down, and kindly reminded, "I'm afraid that the little iron hoop with solid wax in it will be unstable, don't be old. It’s upside down, don’t light the lantern again.”

Ji Qingliu glanced at him again, "You did it?"

Zhu Tang nodded, "What's so strange?"

"I wish God Lord is really leisurely and elegant."

After finishing speaking, he threw the lantern into his arms, put his hands on his sleeves and left first.

Zhu Tang picked up the lantern and rushed forward, grabbing a hand from him and clenched it tightly, sending him warmth, and then led him away while holding the lantern. .

Ji Qingliu wanted to shake his hands at first, but after thinking about it, he really responded to Zhu Tang's "good advice" - don't always let yourself suffer when doing things, obviously my hands are warmer than your own, you rely on The closer you are to me, the warmer it is. According to the fairy art, it is clear that I am "crossing" you, spreading my warmth to you, and the one who loses and wastes is myself, and you are obviously all " Gotta, why bother to go against my good intentions and insist on going against me?

Besides, if you lose your face, you might be able to save some face if you go to the streets at night, for example——in fact, it’s not as good as what Zhu Tang yelled in the morning. What did the two of them do at night? Out for a walk.

So it's okay to think so, let him pull it.

But he couldn't stop thinking about the lantern.

I'm ashamed to say that in the past, when the celestial art was still there, this lantern... if it was missing, it could be easily changed. Who would make one when they are free.Time-consuming and labor-intensive, and there is nothing to ask for.

This Zhu Tang... probably has a mental illness.

At this moment, Zhu Tang also made a wild guess about what happened just now, and at this moment, he opened his mouth to ask, which was exactly what You Ji was thinking.

With a sneer, Zhu Tang felt as if he had regained some face, "I'm afraid the emperor doesn't know that there are similar people in the mortal world, called 'craftsmen'."

"It's like making lanterns, carvings, and paper-cutting...they sell them during Chinese New Year and festivals, and they are all trades for living people."

"To put it bluntly, it's also a way of making a living."

I was also afraid that You Ji would not understand the meaning of these words, so Zhu Tang made a special point to clear the way, "That is, for example, if one day I really fell off the horse and returned to my original shape and became an ordinary person again, then I still have a strong body." With a good physique and a job, he can basically survive in this world.”

Ji Qingliu blinked slowly a few times and looked at him steadily, thinking that you wouldn't feel comfortable if you didn't block me or make trouble with me, would you?

Zhu Tang smiled knowingly again, "I didn't mean to be angry with you."

As he spoke, his subordinates tightened up, couldn't help rubbing his palm, and said softly, "You Ji, tell me... what have you been doing in the world..."

"Sleep, eat, listen to music. It's over."

"That's it, that's it?"

"That's it." Ji Qingliu replied flatly.

Zhu Tang's throat was slightly choked up again, but he was the one who found him too late, so he still had to bite the bullet and ask, what he was most afraid of knowing - "Have you been bullied?"

Just as Ji Qingliu was about to shake his head, he thought of You Ming again, thinking that You Ming... Then it's not Zhu Tang's turn to take care of him, so he shook his head again.

Zhu Tang was keenly aware of this, and couldn't help but stop, "If you have something, don't hide it, I..."

Ji Qingliu glanced at Zhu Tang's expression, then thought about his rules of conduct, and then realized that this might not be what he really wanted to ask, and felt that he was really boasting this morning--you have to enjoy yourself, It's up to you to have fun, can I still survive this body?

So he hurriedly changed his mouth and said, "Don't worry, I have never been fucked by anyone else except you. You are really the first."

Zhu Tang's heartfelt words couldn't be said, and he choked back in his stomach... He said in his heart: Uh, why did he suddenly mention this...

"So you try to be gentle with me in the future, and I can ask you to toss a few more times."

Saying that, Ji Qingliu let out another light ah, and said with melancholy eyes, "By the way, when you think about it carefully, I am older than you by more than a few thousand years, maybe over ten thousand... I am old, and I can't stand it..."

He also thought that he knew everything about him anyway, so he did not hide it as he said, "You also know, that girl Zhixi has been with me for a long time, don't make things difficult for her anymore, I begged her at the beginning I tried to kill you with some poison, but unfortunately it didn’t work. But the “those medicines” she gave me are all used up now.”

As he spoke, he leaned back slightly, and Ji Qingliu looked at Zhu Tang with an unfriendly expression, "You know what kind of medicine I'm referring to, right? So I didn't expect you to stay here for so long. You said that the current situation is a net of heaven and earth. You can’t get out even if you’re covered.”

Trying to pretend to be an elder again, Ji Qingliu patted Zhu Tang's shoulder kindly, "The ancestors are old enough to live, don't get angry with you juniors, listen to the ancestors and tear this battle down, you After you can get out of the city, just let your ancestors go, but do you hear me clearly?"

At first Zhu Tang heard it in a cloud, but later he understood it, and now he understood it all, so he sneered and yelled to the side, "You think so beautifully!"
