The Classic of Mountains and Seas Through Ancient and Modern Times

Chapter 17 The Talking Egg

It is probably because there have been no monsters in this area for a long time, and the news of the mummies in the city did not attract much attention from the authorities. Even the autopsy only said that the deceased had lost too much blood, probably due to grass ticks or the like. Caused by blood-sucking bugs, after all, this kind of bugs are common in this season.

Li Mu and the others didn't go back to the village that day because they wanted to catch the monster, but stayed directly at the inn in the city.Lu Jiaqi had already ordered hot water from the inn to take a bath, she would have no face to appear in front of Li Mu in her current form.

When he came out of the shower, Hua Shuo was sitting on the railing on the second floor looking at the yard downstairs with a dejected expression. He just raised his head and smiled at Lu Jiaqi when he heard footsteps.

Lu Jiaqi leaned over curiously: "What are you looking at? What's there to see?"

Unexpectedly, Hua Shuo replied deeply: "There is no scenery in front of you but there is scenery in your heart. No matter where you are, there is something beautiful."

Lu Jiaqi laughed dryly. Is it the ancient version of the legend that "the world is not short of beauty, but a pair of eyes to discover beauty"?
"By the way, where's Li Mu?" He was really sorry for wronging him before.

"On the roof!" Hua Shuo raised his finger to the top of his head, "Young Master Li seems to be in a bad mood."

When Lu Jiaqi heard the words, she immediately said, "Then I'll go up and see him." After finishing speaking, she quickly ran to the side ladder and climbed up.

At this time, Li Mu was lying on the roof looking at the blue sky, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, and he didn't turn his head when he heard Lu Jiaqi's voice coming up, he was really unhappy.

"Handsome guy, what are you looking at?" Lu Jiaqi pretended to be relaxed and sat beside him with a smile.

"Stay away from me." Li Mu snorted coldly.

Thinking that the other party was taking advantage, Lu Jiaqi obediently moved to the side, keeping a distance of about three meters from Li Mu: "Is that enough?"

Li Mu stood up straight, looked at the woman who was far away from him, gritted his teeth, and said, "You, you're so stupid, forget it!" After finishing speaking, the man lay back and continued to look at the sky.

Lu Jiaqi: ...why are you scolding me again?

But dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, and she can't argue with some people who have no quality, right?After sitting down, Lu Jiaqi talked about the important point: "Well, it was my fault for misunderstanding you before, and I said that to you, I'm really sorry!"

"Ah? What?" Li Mu turned his head to look at Lu Jiaqi, and said slowly, "You are too far away from me, I can't hear what you are saying?"

Lu Jiaqi complained in her heart when she heard the words: Talking nonsense with your eyes open, how can you be so far away?

"I'm sorry, I was wrong!" Lu Jiaqi decisively chose the latter in "Get closer to Li Mu or raise your voice decibels", mainly because Li Mu is too creepy, besides, she was told to stay away from him before, right?
Unexpectedly, Li Mu sneered when he heard the words: "I can't hear you, sit down and say it."

"Huh?" Lu Jiaqi felt her hairs stand on end, did she suddenly let her sit over, did she want to kick her down?No, no, this height is too embarrassing, if you fall, you will only be disabled: "Well, no, I'm fine sitting here, haha!"

"Huh?" This time Li Mu directly used an eye knife to kill, and Lu Jiaqi immediately bit the bullet and leaned over obediently: "I'm here to apologize, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have misunderstood you."

Li Mu felt that he was not sincere enough, so he put on airs and kept silent.Lu Jiaqi was not sure what he was thinking, and said a few more soft words, but the other party didn't see a statement. Finally, she couldn't hold back her sobs and began to cry. It's okay not to cry, and all the grievances flooded up instantly when she cried .

When the man on the side encountered this situation, and was puzzled by Lu Jiaqi's crying, he couldn't help frowning and sat up looking at her, saying coldly, "Why are you crying?"

"Of course I'm crying for my life," Lu Jiaqi cried while wiping away tears, "Why did I encounter such a thing and a person like you? I was about to die when it was so dangerous yesterday, and I finally died I apologize to you for escaping, and you still show me a sullen face, why? Who did I provoke? "

As he spoke, his crying raised another level, and he didn't care about any public occasions at the moment.

Li Muguang was upset enough to hear it: "Shut up, you will shut your mouth if you cry again."

"What else would you do to me other than doing this to me? If you have the ability, you can sew my mouth shut." Lu Jiaqi turned back and yelled at him, "Or kill me like that monster. I guess this is what you have long ago Want it!"

"You..." Li Mu opened his mouth and explained in a hurry, "I don't think so, don't cry, um, can I apologize to you?" Li Mu paused slightly, wrinkled After frowning, he didn't say anything.

On the other hand, Lu Jiaqi was crying too much and couldn't hear what Li Mu said, so Hua Shuo also came after a while: "Miss Lu, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Hua Shuo's first move, Lu Jiaqi threw herself into Hua Shuo's arms and cried loudly. She was really wronged too much.

Hua Shuo froze instinctively, and then patted Lu Jiaqi on the back: "Miss Lu, if you have any sad things, just say it, it will make you feel better." When he was sad or unhappy when he was a child, his master would hug him like this. Watching him, comforting him.

Li Mu on the side turned his head, his sharp gaze skipped over Hua Shuo's hand, and then he grabbed Lu Jiaqi's hand and pulled her into his arms and flew down the roof. At the same time, he whispered in Lu Jiaqi's ear: " Sorry, just this once."

After speaking, she let go of Lu Jiaqi and left without looking back.

As for Lu Jiaqi, she was taken aback, just this once?What just this once?Apology or something else?
After that, Lu Jiaqi and Hua Shuo didn't see Li Mu again until ten minutes after dinner. The careful Lu Jiaqi soon noticed that Li Mu's hair was slightly damp, as if he had just taken a bath.I couldn't help but feel a little awkward, did I take a bath because I hugged her, or did I take a bath because I wanted to?
The answer that I thought I would never know was immediately asked by Hua Shuo: "I haven't seen Mr. Li for a long time, is Mr. Li studying how to deal with monsters?" Why don't you take him with you?
Unexpectedly, Li Mu replied indifferently after hearing the words: "No, I have been taking a bath all the time."

Lu Jiaqi: ...I really want to spit out a mouthful of blood, not only because he hugged her to take a bath, but also washed for a long time, isn't he afraid of peeling off his skin?The so-called scholar can be killed but not humiliated, this man is too bullying.

"Miss Lu? What's the matter with you? You don't seem to be looking well." Looking at the woman Hua Shuo who was holding the bowl, she was a little worried.

"It's okay!" Lu Jiaqi twitched the corner of her mouth and put down the bowl and chopsticks, "I'm full, so I'll go back to bed first." After being humiliated by this, she didn't have the cheek to stay any longer.

The so-called needle in the bottom of a woman's heart, how can the remaining two big men see what Lu Jiaqi is thinking?Only Hua Shuo murmured: "A woman's stomach is really small, and she will be full after just a few mouthfuls of porridge."

Besides, Lu Jiaqi didn't go to sleep immediately after returning to the house, but took out the eggs in the box in the baggage and looked at them carefully.Finally, he lay down on the table and poked the egg: "Hey, are you awake or asleep?"

Egg:……

"Stop pretending, I know you can talk." Lu Jiaqi continued to poke, "You monsters and monsters can't talk, so how can you have the face to come out?"

Egg:……

"Thank you for saving me last night. If it weren't for you, I would have been eaten by that monster. By the way, are you a man or a woman? Do you have a name? If not, how about I get one for you? How's Egg?" After speaking, Lu Jiaqi laughed alone, "It's a pity that I'm not a lazy sheep, haha, hey, you have something to say! If you don't speak, I will smash you."

"What an ungrateful woman." The soft voice sounded childishly, "Didn't you just say you want to thank me? You are going to kill me in a blink of an eye. It's really changeable."

Lu Jiaqi was surprised, the voice was cute: "Hey, is it a child? Male or female?"

Egg: "Are men and women that important?"

Lu Jiaqi thought for a while and shook her head: "It's not very important, then do you have a name?"

The egg immediately replied: "Of course there is, but I won't tell you." This woman is in the same group as the Demon Emperor, if he told her his name, he might be able to be made into an fried egg by Emperor Chen the next moment.

Lu Jiaqi: "..." Why does she somehow feel that this egg is very arrogant?
"If you don't tell me, I'll call you Eggy."

"As long as you like it."

This answer made Lu Jiaqi speechless, really arrogant?

Just when Lu Jiaqi didn't know how to continue this topic, Eggy suddenly said: "Someone is here, absolutely don't let others know that I can talk."

"why?"

"They will hinder my birth," Eggy explained, "Ms. Zhao Yao once asked you to watch my birth. You must not live up to her entrustment!"

Lu Jiaqi immediately said: "Mrs. Zhaoyao is so kind to me, so naturally I will not disappoint her entrustment, but the birth of you beasts is really strange, and there are so many things to pay attention to." Just as he was talking, there was a knock on the door.

Lu Jiaqi hurriedly put the eggs back into the box, and before she put them in the bag, she saw Li Mu walking in, dressed in white.When he saw the box in Lu Jiaqi's hand, Li Mu looked up at her: "What is it?"

As he said that, the person had already snatched the box and opened it to look at it, but Li Mu just looked at it for a while and then closed the box: "What are you doing with an egg?"

"That, as a spare food." Seeing the other party handing over the box, Lu Jiaqi finally put her heart back into her stomach, "What are you doing here without dinner?"

"Apply the medicine!" Li Mu frowned. The wound was a little cracked when he took a bath in the afternoon, and he unbuttoned his clothes to reveal his perfectly straight back, "What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up!"

"Oh, okay!" After being yelled at by the other party, Lu Jiaqi immediately took out the medicine and gave it to Li Mu.By the way, why does she feel that she is a little servile?
When he took the silk and dipped it in medicine powder and pressed it on Li Mu's wound, the other party suddenly asked, "How did you escape last night?"
