Spirit rhinoceros

Chapter 43

"Little princess of the Dragon Clan of the East China Sea, you have a noble status and are pampered and pampered. Naturally, you can't understand our messy behavior." Mo Long bullied her and said coldly, "Not kind? I have long since known what kindness is all these years It's gone." After finishing speaking, he strode away without paying attention to her at all.

Lingxi stood alone by the river, stunned for a long time.The wind was strong by the river, and the sweat on her body was blown by the wind. She couldn't help shivering, gathered the sable fur, lowered her head and thought carefully, then picked up the pastry box on the ground, and walked to Shuangying Town.

When she came here, she was dragged away by Mo Long. She couldn't remember where she came from, and only went to the brightly lit place, and returned to the streets of Shuangying Town after a while.Without hesitation, she went straight back to the tailor shop just now, found the shopkeeper, and was about to return the sable fur to him.

"Return your clothes..."

The shopkeeper asked in surprise, "Madam still doesn't like it?"

I thought the shopkeeper would be furious when he saw her, and chased her to get back the sable fur and boots, but he never expected him to be so attentive, Lingxi was stunned: "Then what...money..."

"Just now your husband has come to pay the bill." The shopkeeper hurriedly said.

Lingxi was stunned: "He just came here?"

The shopkeeper nodded.

Lingxi hugged the sable fur, stood at the door of the store and looked around, but Mo Long could no longer be seen, feeling lost in her heart.She also didn't know which inn Mo Long lived in, and where to find him. He had no idea at all, frustrated and annoyed.

The little meat ball following her feet yelled twice and ran away.

"where are you going?"

Lingxi hurriedly chased after him, and after a few zhangs, he saw the little meat ball stopped at one person's feet.It was enthusiastically rubbing its chubby body against the man's boots.

"You are here!" Lingxi said happily.

Mo Long lowered his head to look at the little meatball, then raised his head to glance at Lingxi, and said coldly, "Your eyes are not as good as it."

"I……"

Lingxi was interrupted when he was about to answer.

"You better stop talking." Mo Long still frowned and glared at her.

Lingxi said depressedly: "I didn't say anything, and I didn't mean to annoy you."

Mo Long said with a sullen face, "Follow me, don't talk anymore!"

Little Rouqiu was very obedient, and walked behind him.

Lingxi became more and more depressed, and muttered in a low voice: "If you say turn your face, you will turn your face, you are more tempered than my sister." She stomped her feet and had to follow.

Mo Long took her back to the inn, arranged another room for her, and gave her four words: "Don't run around."

"I..." Lingxi still wanted to say something.

"You are not allowed to speak, just listen."

"Hey! You..." Lingxi was dissatisfied.

Mo Long's reaction to this was to close the door directly and ignore her at all.

In the early morning of Shuangying Town, one wakes up from the sound of rolling wheels, one after another there are boats docking, one after another carts pass through the streets of Shuangying Town from the pier, there are those who transport spring water, oranges, etc. Xuan paper, and some vehicles are covered with heavy curtains, so that people can't see clearly whether there are people or monsters inside.

Lingxi lived in a wing facing the street, and was woken up early in the morning. She put on her clothes and opened the window, watching the carriages lined up in the direction of Jinghu, and suddenly thought that there were so many carriages, so she just hid in one On the carriage, maybe you can sneak into Tianjing Villa.

Hastily put on her robe and boots and socks, she just opened the door, and then she was stunned - standing outside the door was Dong Lichang who was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, he was also stunned, and was far more surprised Yu Lingxi.

"You, you...why are you here?" He pointed his finger at her, and Mung Dou's small eyes were wide open.

Without waiting for Lingxi's answer, he stretched his neck and poked in: "Where's Mo Long? This is obviously his wing. You and him...he and you..." Dong Lichang's voice trembled, but he didn't know he was angry. Still too shocked.

Lingxi didn't understand what he meant, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong with him?"

At this time, the door of the other side room opened, and Mo Long came out, followed by Xia Houfeng rubbing his eyes.

"Old man, I'm here with Xiaofeng. What are you thinking about?" Mo Long complained, and walked over for a long time.

Dongli Chief was not forgiving, refused to move, pointed to Lingxi and said: "Why is she here? Tell me! Did you two conspire to deceive me?!" He thought that Lingxi had really left, so he was very relieved , I didn't expect her to appear out of thin air, and she was in Mo Long's room.

"Who lied to you? You're overthinking." Mo Long expected that he would be dissatisfied, but he didn't expect him to lose his temper. "Old man, come on, let's go in and sit down and talk." He half supported and half pushed Get Dong Lichang in, and signal Xiaofeng to pour tea quickly.

Lingxi stood aside, trying to explain: "We..."

As soon as she said two words, Mo Long interrupted her, telling her to keep silent: "Don't talk."

Lingxi was helpless, still thinking about the important matter of getting mixed up in the convoy, and wanted to leave, but was dragged back by Mo Long, staring at her heavily, although she didn't say anything, the meaning was very obvious - just stay there, No running around.

"Old man, I just met her by chance last night." In front of Dong Lichang, Mo Long first set aside herself, "Last night I was walking by the Mirror Lake, and I ran into this girl who was frozen in the mirror lake. , I can’t be afraid. At that time, I thought, just pretend not to see, she has nothing to do with us anyway.”

Hearing this, Dong Lichang opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but held back.It was Xia Houfeng who interjected, "How can I do that, at least we got to know each other for a while, it's too dishonest!"

Just waiting for these words, Mo Long continued: "I reckoned that if I told the old man this later, he would definitely scold me for being dishonest, so I gave her a hand."

Dong Lichang snorted.

"I didn't know until I got this girl out of the lake. Because she had no money and didn't know how to adapt, she had no food and no place to live. I had no choice but to bring her back." Mo Long added, "She lives in my room, and Xiaofeng and I squeeze together."

Director Dongli couldn't find fault with him, so without saying anything, he frowned for a moment, then turned to Lingxi: "You, what's going on? Didn't you say you're going back to Donghai?"

Lingxi remained silent, looking down at the ground.

"I've learned to lie, I'm making progress!" Dong Lichang hummed.

Mo Long pushed the pastry box on the table over to Chief Dongli, and smoothed things over: "I bought this specially for you on the street last night."

"Don't eat." Dongli was very breathless.

Mo Long opened the box, and said in a pleasant voice, "Short butter pancakes, gold and silver bamboo rolls..."

"Not hungry!" Dong Lichang turned his head aside.

"Wine-skinned rice cakes, crispy yellow sour cheese and raisin cakes." Mo Long laughed, "Haven't you always thought about this one?"

"Who said that, I won't eat."

"That's because I misremembered." Mo Long didn't force it, and turned to Xia Houfeng and said, "...Xiaofeng, take these snacks and share with Xiaobai."

Dong Lichang immediately stretched out his hand to press the pastry box: "I'm not hungry now, maybe I will be hungry later."

The old man finally had the intention to come down the steps, Mo Long said with a smile: "Taste one first, and see if it tastes the same?" After that, he graciously handed over a rice cake with wine skin and sent it straight to Dongli Changzui side.

A familiar smell of bad stewed wine came to the nostrils, Dong Lichang couldn't hold it back, took a bite in his hand, and looked at Mo Long while chewing: "Don't think that I just calmed down after eating."

"No." Mo Long poured him some tea and said with a smile, "Eat first, and then teach us when you're full."

Dongli gave him a white look.

Lingxi was beside him secretly admiring: It turns out that this way can coax people, next time my sister gets annoyed, I will try this coaxing method myself.

After eating two pieces of pastry, Dong Lichang thought about it and was still worried, and asked Mo Long, "What are you going to do with her? This child is really worrying."

"Who says it's not?" Mo Long echoed, passing a glance at Lingxi.

Lingxi pretended not to hear anything, his eyes wandered aimlessly.

Mo Long whispered to Dongli, "But I've thought about it too. This girl won't cry when she sees the coffin. She suffered a loss in Jinghu Lake last night. I'll take her to see her again today. I'll take care of her." You have to give up your mind."

Dongli Chang was startled, looked up at him, still not at ease: "Don't let anything else happen."

"rest assured."

Before noon, the snow field outside Jinghu Lake was already full of long motorcades, but it was extremely quiet. In the wind and snow, except for footsteps, horseshoes, and the occasional snorting of horses, nothing else could be heard. sound.No one greeted, no one chatted, and even the sound of panting was deliberately suppressed to a minimum.

Lingxi doesn't quite understand, Mo Long's so-called bringing his own experience is to watch the caravan before coming to Jinghu?Mo Long didn't explain and just told her to wait and see.Xia Houfeng really missed Mo Ji, so he followed, and soon found the two carts transporting the spring water, not daring to get too close, and kept watching pitifully.Bai Xi was beside him.Dongli Chief didn't want to come, but he was really worried about these little cubs, so he stood and looked this way from a distance.

It was the first time I saw such a long but quiet convoy. Lingxi walked slowly along the convoy until he reached the front, only to see a pair of bronze sparrows standing in front of Jinghu Lake.When she came last night, she only saw two groups of dark shadows, and now she can see their appearance clearly.

Pieces of copper feathers are distinct and lifelike. They just stand quietly on the snow, quietly enduring the cold wind, rain and snow for thousands of years...

Noon is approaching.

In the hazy world, the sky was full of wind and snow, and suddenly there was a clear and high-pitched cry of a crane, splitting the chaotic world.Two white cranes came from nowhere, their white feathers were as heavy as snow, like jade like a wall, and landed lightly on the ice surface of Jinghu Lake.

Lingxi couldn't help but let out a soft "ah", for fear that they would be frozen by the ice. No one could bear to see them suffer for such light and agile creatures.Mo Long pulled her back and motioned her to keep quiet and just watch.

The sharp and extremely cold ice surface is extremely gentle under the feet of the white cranes. They rise and fall lightly, their flight feathers vibrate, the snowflakes dissipate, and their sharp claws leave faint traces on the ice surface—I never thought that feathered birds could be so beautiful. At such a situation, Lingxi was fascinated.Suddenly, a faint rumbling sound came from under the ice, which startled her, and looked at Mo Long questioningly.The latter was calm and relaxed, as if he knew about it a long time ago, and motioned her to read on.
