The child cried so much in the middle of the night that Sijin could only hug and coax her.A few months have passed in a blink of an eye, and the child's facial features have grown slightly, and the two cheeks are like dough, pink and waxy.It's just that I don't sleep honestly at night, I wake up intermittently, and I always cry when I wake up.

Originally, Sijin slept with Lingqu, but now that the child is making a fuss, afraid of disturbing Lingqu, they can only sleep in separate rooms.Even though they slept in separate rooms, Ling Qu could still hear Fu'er crying at night.

After coaxing for a while, the child's crying gradually became quieter.Just as Sijin was about to put the child back in the cradle, a tall figure covered her in the blink of an eye.

With a cool fragrance.

Sijin was picked up by Ling Qu and walked straight towards the bed.

"What are you doing all of a sudden?" Sijin asked with a suppressed voice.He was really tired and had no energy to toss.

"I used some sleeping incense, and that girl won't wake up in less than three hours." Ling Qu said flatly.

"Are you crazy? She's still young, how can she use this?" Sijin tightened Lingqu's clothes nervously.

Ling Qu sniffed between his brows, and then he put him safely on the bed and covered him with a quilt: "The flesh and blood of the poisonous cultivator is not much weaker. I calculated the dosage correctly."

"I...I can't sleep now." Sijin turned over and said with her back to Lingqu.

"You coax her, I'll coax you." Ling Qu sat on the edge of the window, patting gently through the quilt.It is a lie to say that he is not sleepy, once the surroundings calm down, the sleepiness will hit Sijin like a flood of beasts, even if Ling Qu bends his head down and grabs his lips and kisses him wantonly, he can't open his eyes, he can only suffer .

"Forgot to mention," Ling Qu said until Sijin's breathing was steady, "Fu'er is indeed not afraid of sleeping incense, but you are. Little fool, this incense is for you."

The baby in the cradle rolled its hands and opened its big eyes, quietly watching Ling Qu coaxing Sijin to sleep by the candlelight.

"Woo~" she called out suddenly.The little hand stretched out into the air, as if trying to grab something.

The cradle shook slightly because of her movement, causing the bells hanging above to ring twice.

"Ah Wu~" She thumped twice, trying to catch the bell, but the bell was shaking, and she couldn't catch it no matter what.

"Wu~" She saw Ling Qu approaching, and shouted with staring almond eyes.Ling Qu gave her the bell.She couldn't hold the bell with her hand, and the bell rolled around and fell on her little quilt.

She was wronged.

"I don't care if you cry during the day. If you cry at night, I will let you sleep in the stable." Ling Qu said.

She didn't understand, and thought that Daddy wanted to hug her, so she obediently stretched out both hands to beg for a hug.

Ling Qu picked her up, and she grabbed the brightest red crabapple flower on Ling Qu's clothes and gnawed on it.

It tasted weird. She gnawed it many times, but couldn't figure out what it tasted like.

"Master, this child is biting your clothes." Seeing the master going out the door, Chu Ji reminded Yuexia leisurely following behind him.

"Just change." Ling Qu lightly hugged her and walked around under the moonlight.The flowers that bloomed in the courtyard during the day all closed their buds at night and fell asleep peacefully.

"Master, you are so excited, I will take my daughter to the garden at night." Chu Ji yawned.

"If you're sleepy, go to bed yourself. I'll take her around and put her back when she's sleepy." Ling Qu picked a morning glory.When Fu'er saw it, she held it in her hand and stared blankly.

"Oh, I figured it out." Chu Ji said cleverly, "On the one hand, you are afraid that the child will make the little master fall asleep in the middle of the night, and on the other hand, you don't want the little master to wake up and find your child. Go shopping and send it back in a moment. What a plan!"

Ling Qu glanced at him, but said nothing.

Chu Ji slapped himself on the mouth: "My little master, who still keeps his mouth shut, is very stupid. Now he should be called Mrs. Master. Master, Mrs. Master, little master, I want to remember."

Ling Qu said: "Having a mouth is worth the noise?"

Chu Ji quickly covered his mouth tightly.

After a good night's sleep, Sijin felt refreshed all over.

The first thing I do when I get up early is to look after the baby. I thought the baby would cry and be fed, but today he is sleeping in the cradle and biting his fingers, very well-behaved.

"Huh? Why is one of the little bells broken?" Sijin asked her strangely.

Fu'er laughed "wuwu" twice.

Sijin tied the bell back again.Brother brought back two sheep from the village a few days ago, saying they were feeding Fu'er.So every morning, Sijin would warm the fresh goat milk with warm water and give it to Fu'er to drink.

After drinking the milk, Sijin combed Fu'er's hair.As a practitioner, he suddenly learned how to braid children's pigtails.If Si Zhan was still there, she must have done a better job.

Thinking of this, Sijin couldn't help but her eyes were red.

"Fu'er's hair has grown a bit." Ling Qu said.

Sijin turned her head: "At least it's been four or five months. You should worry if you don't have long hair."

Ling Qu smiled: "If Ah Jin also has black hair, it must be very touching."

Sijin touched her head.He also had it when he was young, but the time passed so long that he had already forgotten what it was like to have long hair.

Ling Qu sat beside him: "There is nothing to regret. When Fu'er grows up, she will look like you with long hair."

Sijin blushed and said, "What's so good about growing up like me? I hope she looks like you and has a personality like you, so that she won't be bullied when she grows up."

Ling Qu laughed even more heartily: "Ah Jin, are you implying that I am more fierce than the Hedong lion, or are you complaining that I am used to bullying you?"

Sijin didn't think of this level at all, and couldn't argue for a while.

Fortunately, Ling Qu didn't care about it, grabbed his hand and said, "I've entrusted you as the host and Senior Brother Ling Mu to take care of the child, so you accompany me to meet someone."

"Who?" Sijin wondered.

"An important person." Ling Qu meant something.

It was only then that Sijin realized that he had been surrounding the child all this time, completely forgetting that Xijue still had no owner.The ownerless Xijue is like a plump prey, which is always missed by others, causing internal and external troubles.

What Ling Qu needs to do now is to find a master for this ownerless country as soon as possible, so as to win the hearts of the people.

"Do you have someone to choose?" He asked Ling Qu.

Ling Qu smiled but did not answer.

Thinking about it, the current Xijue is stared at by Dongsheng and Beijiang at the same time, and Lingqu is caught in the middle. If he is interested in one of the countries, there is really no need to wait until now.Ling Qu is making another plan.

"It's time to see you." Sijin looked at Lingqu. "See you then?" Ling Qu smiled.

Chu Ji had prepared a carriage for them in advance, but Sijin didn't want to sit in it, so Ling Qu simply untied the horse's noose and pulled him onto the horse.

It is rare for Sijin to ride a horse, even with Ling Qu behind him, he is still timid. Once the horse is fast, he will throw the reins and hug the horse's neck.

"Why is Ah Jin still not good at riding?" Ling Qu pulled the rope for him, and said with a smile, "Originally, I planned to ride a horse for you and me, so it's faster, but now it seems that you can't do without me."

Sijin lost all face, and it was really because of her own fear, there was nothing to argue with: "Growing up in a Buddhist temple, you rarely have the opportunity to touch horses. If you have time in the future, teach me more, and I will definitely learn."

"Your husband and I learned riding and archery when we were three years old, pierced Yang with a hundred steps when we were six years old, and captured a thief with one hand when we were nine years old. Even though the dungeon has been closed for some time, our kung fu has never been wasted. After all, you are still a little weaker than me. " Ling Qu said.

Si Jin had to admit it.He lived in a temple in the mountains for a long time, even if he practiced martial arts every day, he could not compare with a real knife.

What's more, as a poison cultivator, Ling Qu didn't bother to use force at all.

"It's been a long time since we went out for a stroll, this time we passed by Liangshuo, why don't we drop by to have a drink and listen to a play?" Ling Qu suddenly suggested.

"You can't eat wine." Sijin said, "A play..."

He wanted to watch a play.

"Understood. Then, instead of drinking wine, how about changing it to Yichanglou's dim sum?"

Now Sijin nodded and said, "Okay."

Ling Qu held the rein and continued, "Since we want to have a snack and watch a show, we must find an inn to stay overnight. Liangshuo is naturally lively at night, there are many storytellers and monkey shows, do you want to go shopping?" visit?"

"Monkey playing?" Sijin's eyes straightened, she quickly shook her head when she realized it, and asked seriously, "You didn't mean to trick me out for a stroll, did you?"

As a practitioner, how can he be greedy for excitement?

"It's just to let you get a little fussy." Ling Qu rested his chin on his shoulder, "Ah Jin is used to the rules and discipline. She always thinks before and after when she speaks and does things. She lives too well. I don't want you to live like this. You are only in your late twenties, and you are in high spirits, you should do whatever you want, and you don’t have to hold yourself back.”

What he said made Sijin feel warm in his heart.

"Then..." Sijin turned her face sideways, "Let's have a snack at Yichanglou, listen to a play, and go to see a monkey at night?"

"Yichanglou's dim sum is exquisite, and one serving is less than two taels."

"That, that..." Sijin stammered and calculated, and stretched out three fingers, "I want three."

"Ah Jin is so good!" Ling Qu suddenly kicked the horse's belly, the horse let out a long cry, and galloped with hooves, Sijin was so frightened that he hugged the horse's neck tightly again.

"The horse is unreliable, why don't you consider hugging me?" Seeing his pitifulness, Ling Qu proposed.

"I have my back to you, how can I hug you?" Sijin's voice was full of tears.

"What you said is true, and I'm the only one holding you." Ling Qu said, stretching out his hand to wrap him in his arms, pressing him tightly.

"The wind is all around my ears," Sijin couldn't help raising her voice, "This horse is going to fly anytime soon!"

"If you want the horse to fly, you can work hard for Funu." Ling Qu whispered in his ear.

"Huh... huh?" Sijin almost didn't realize it, "People are going to the sky, how fast can it be?"

I'm afraid I'm going to go to the west to see the Buddha directly!

"Three—two—" Ling Qu shouted.

"one!"

There was a ravine in front, and the horse leaped forward, so frightened that Sijin closed her eyes, and just grabbed the Buddhist beads in her palm tightly.

The horse landed safely and galloped again.

"What were you talking about just now?" Ling Qu asked him.

"I'm here..." Sijin only felt that her soul was still in the sky and hadn't returned to its place, and she couldn't speak fluently, "I'm reciting my newly learned Lotus Sutra."

"Have you come up with a trick for talking about it?"

"I... can't read well."

"You should read my name, it is more effective than scriptures at critical moments." Ling Qu said solemnly.

"Why?" Sijin asked blankly.

Ling Qu laughed softly: "For example just now, if you said 'Ling Qu, I'm afraid', maybe I would be happy for a while and choose to take a smoother road."
