One of the Twelve Kingdoms

The weather in London in June was unseasonably hot, and the school's swimming pool opened earlier than usual.Kathy came out of the blue water, wiped her face and opened her eyes. She saw that her boyfriend, Will, had already swam to the other side, leaning on the edge of the pool and smiling back at her with straight white teeth.

"I lost, you have to treat me to ice cream." Casey blinked, then dived back into the water and swam forward.Suddenly, Casey felt a numbness in his calf, and then his whole body lost his balance. The pool water choked his nose because of panic, and Casey threw his limbs out of order, but his body couldn't stop falling.

"Kathy, stop playing hide-and-seek." Weir was chatting with his friends, but he couldn't help calling out when she floated up after seeing her for a long time. After getting no response, he became nervous: "Kathy?"

As if answering, bubbles suddenly appeared on the surface of the pool not far away.Their location was in the deep water area. Weier was startled and immediately plunged into the water and swam vigorously. In the rippled light and shadow, he picked up the unconscious Casey and dragged him to the shore, and worked together with several students to get him to the ground.

"Kathy?" Will patted her face lightly, calling her name anxiously and terrified.Kathy's face was pale and her eyelids were tightly closed.Will's throat seemed to be suddenly blocked, and he carefully felt for her breath.

"My God." He didn't feel any breath flow through his fingers, and Will immediately sat up and pressed her chest for artificial respiration. His movements were standard, but it didn't work at all.

Someone had already called the lifeguard and the teacher, and Wilt slumped on the ground, unbelievable that Casey was still talking to him just a moment ago, but he lost his life in such a short period of time.

Until Casey's cold body was sent to the ambulance, he was a little dazed.

Casey's pulse and heartbeat had stopped, and the emergency personnel in the car repeatedly ventilated and massaged her heart, but there was still no response on the monitor.

"Prepare for electric shock, 200, start for the first time." The pacemaker defibrillator was connected to the power supply, and the girl suddenly sat up when the doctor was about to start.

She glanced around strangely, looked at the shocked medical staff, and asked as if nothing happened: "Why am I here?" She heard the whistle of the ambulance siren, "I remember I was drowning, you saved me? Thank you." Casey climbed out of bed, and the nurse hurriedly told her to lie back: "Don't move around, miss."

"I'm fine, I can get out of the car."

"You need to go to the hospital for an examination."

Her pulse, heart rate and breathing were checked again, and everything was normal, with no symptoms of drowning.

When Casey walked out of the hospital, the doctor couldn't help saying to his colleagues: "This is so strange."

"Yeah." The other doctor nodded in agreement, looking at his colleague's weird smile and feeling strange: "Who are you?"

……

When Joshya is at ease he learns quickly how getting everyone to do their job is not easy, especially when it comes to deciding which of two pieces of advice to take seems to make sense Joshua is still confused about which issues are as difficult to decide as whether to have a cat or a dog.But generally everything is still developing for the better, like a train that suddenly derailed, and now it is finally running in on the new railway.

However, after getting acquainted with the officials, King Gong ran to the outer palace as soon as he had the opportunity, which is where the court officials usually work. Gong Qi told him that this would affect their work, and he was surprised that this time the Tai Tuo stood on Joshya's side .

"Although many of the master's ideas are wild and unconstrained, the craftsmen all find it very interesting, and everyone is eager to try it. There has not been such a relaxed atmosphere in the court for a long time. The master is very humble, simple, and easily bewitched by others."

Yan Qi was stunned for a moment, pondered for a moment and said: "I understand."

He asked the female officer on the side: "Where is the Lord now?"

"In the outer court, it seems to be with Lord Zong."

When Xiongqi looked for him, Joshya was not there.

Zong Ting, who was in charge of the field and water conservancy, was working with his colleagues. Seeing him bowed his head and saluted, he said, "Master Taifu, Wang chatted with me for a while about opening canals and drainage, and then he went to Lord Li's residence."

So Yan Qi went to another place that Zong Ting had mentioned, and when similar conversations continued five times, Yan Qi went directly down to Aoshuang Mountain.

As long as he concentrates a little bit, Sheng Qi can easily find Joshya's location with his wangqi.He didn't know whether the other party liked to play or it was just a trick to get out of the palace, but no matter what the reason was, when he saw Wang and Bai Hu talking with a smile, he hid his disappointment and walked over, "My lord."

The atmosphere suddenly cooled down, and Joshua looked at him with some surprise and restraint: "Hi, Yanqi." He blinked as if guilty, "I'm sorry, I..."

Yan Qi originally planned to pretend to be peaceful with calmness as always, but the other party's weakness suddenly made him angry, and he accused him coldly: "You are the king, there is no need to apologize. If you really don't want to see me, I will let you Others pass the message on my behalf, and I don't have to attend the court meeting."

Joshua was taken aback by his words.He thought that the other party was here to inquire about the crime, but the result was worse than that. This self-righteous unicorn was threatening him, just like every time before.That expression was like he owed him millions, but why did he think that he had to listen to him for everything?Joshua stared at him with fire in his eyes and retorted angrily, "Whatever you want, don't talk like you're the victim."

"You've always been the one who thinks you're the victim, right?" Xi Qi countered in a harsh, mocking tone: "The relationship between us is not a relationship that can be willful, whether you repeatedly try to touch the bottom line, or deliberately reject me, anyway, it doesn't matter. No one can refute you whatever you want to do."

"Oh? Really? Then I tell you to roll down the mountain and you do it? It's as if you listen to me..."

"Joe, Taifu, calm down both of you." Bai Hu couldn't help but stop the two of them arguing like children.When he was in the palace, he was used to seeing these two quarreling.One of them is usually cheerful and the other gentle, but when they meet together, it's like meeting a natural enemy. Both of them instantly return to the level of three years old, so childish that others can't stand it.But it would be too much to go outside and make everyone know about it.

Yan Qi held his breath and hummed silently, and in a blink of an eye, he was facing Jason, and he frowned: "Who is he?"

"Hi, hello." Jason coughed and greeted.It was only then that Yan Qi noticed that there was a fourth person in the room, and Joshya curled her lips and said, "My friend, you don't care."

Bai Hu replied: "We met him a few days ago, and he seems to be a mountain guest."

Yan Qi sighed and asked Joshya: "Did you come out these days just to find him?"

Joshua suddenly remembered that his original intention was to try his best to show off, and then let Xieqi help him send Jason back to England as soon as he was happy.But now everything is messed up.

"According to me, there has been no eclipse in Qiaoguo recently, where did you come from?" Gong Qi continued to ask.

Jason had been staring at Xin Qi's face and long hair in a daze, and he suddenly came back to his senses when he heard him asking himself: "I don't know, sir."

"Jason doesn't understand the language here, so he can't communicate with others." For some reason, Joshya blocked Jason's line of sight a little bit unhappily. The idea of ​​being honestly locked in the palace.

He must be crazy that he should feel jealous.

Yan Qi glanced at Jason thoughtfully, and said, "If you want to take him back to the palace, then you can."

Joshua asked suspiciously, "Really?"

Yan Qi had already turned around and was about to leave, when he heard the words, he said in a low voice, "Anyway, no matter what I say, in your eyes, it is not as good as what anyone else says."

He rode away like a gust of wind, but those words hit Joshua's heart like a piece of ice, and the bone-piercing coolness made him smart all of a sudden.

"Hey, White Tiger..."

"Huh?" Bai Hu looked at him in a daze, but there was an unusual light in his eyes.Then he said as if suddenly alive: "Let's go back to the palace, hurry up."

He didn't even have time for Baihu to pick up the clothes that he dropped after transforming, he chased the cloud that Xi Qi had stepped on and landed in front of the door of Renzhong Hall.

"You go first." Joshua quickly said to Baihu, seeing that Xiang Qi was in the shadow of the entrance, and then ran into the hall without looking back.The white tiger stood there for a while, then flicked its tail and left.

"Yuqi." It was the first time he entered the palace where Yanqi lived. The layout here was very similar to the Shuiyang Palace, only smaller and more spacious.Therefore, there is no place to hide.

"I'm sorry, Yan Qi, are you angry?" Joshya took two steps closer, and he could only judge the other's mood by the slight movement of the other's long hair.

"I'm here to apologize and I'm sorry to get mad at you because I finally get it."

Still did not answer, Joshya stood behind him, with an order in his voice, "Turn around and look at me."

Yan Qi's shoulders loosened slightly, and he wanted to ask Du Ang what he understood, but the moment he turned around, Joshua kissed him.

It was a deep and heavy kiss, until all the oxygen was taken away, Joshah gasped and let him go, and smiled: "You like me, don't you?"

Yanqi's pupils widened slightly, and then he replied calmly as if he was restraining something: "As a Qilin of Qiao Kingdom, I respect you, love you, and fear you."

"You are not suitable for lying at all, Yan Qi." He said a little cunningly: "I have seen Yan Qi, Jing Qi, Song Lin, and Lian Lin, none of them will pester their kings like you all day long."

"You are the king, and I will obey you in everything."

Is this why he cooperates?What a cunning creature, who said they were honest and upright?

"Then don't treat me as a king and reject me."

Their eyes met, one pair was calm and confident, and the other was trembling.

Everything that happened after that turned into a violent and vague rainstorm in Joshya's memory.He only remembered that he seemed to fall into a sun-like dazzling golden light ball, and the released soul and emotion were mysterious, sexy and charming, just like Joshya saw him for the first time in the bar that night .
