Spirit rhinoceros

Chapter 48

Although the wooden house is simple, it is extremely clean, even the most remote corners are washed spotlessly.There are three wing rooms on the upper floor, and the bedding is clean.Downstairs, apart from the hall and the kitchen, there is also a rather large room with the four treasures of the study neatly arranged, presumably it was prepared for Zhuo.

There is a large plate of oranges on the table in the hall, the skin is wide and open, and the color is yellow and yellow.Lingxi took one casually, peeled it open and ate it, the flesh was firm and crisp, sweet and fresh, after eating one, he couldn't help reaching out for another one.Seeing Mo Long coming out from behind the screen, she hurriedly handed over an orange: "Try it, the oranges here are delicious."

Mo Long didn't answer, glanced at her, and asked, "Do you think everything is fine here?"

Lingxi didn't think too much, nodded and said: "It's completely different from what I thought. I thought that Tianjing Villa should be..." She didn't know what to say, and gestured with her hands, "It's even better than Donghai Mansion." Be colder, there are many rules and regulations, everyone can't see the mood on their faces, and everyone has a straight face..."

"Wait... is your Donghai Mansion cold?" Mo Long asked.

Lingxi was a little embarrassed when he said that he was bald, and went back to make up: "...No, it's just that when my sister is in a bad mood, no one dares to provoke her, so..."

Mo Long shook her head and said, "It seems that your sister is often in a bad mood."

Lingxi sighed faintly, "Since I was a child, I can count the number of times I've seen her smile on one hand. If she could smile at me like Mr. Xue, it would be great... What are you doing?!" She nimbly turned sideways to avoid Mo Long's outstretched hand, and stared at him warily.

Mo Long withdrew her hands, crossed her arms, and turned her head to look at her: "What are you hiding from? Why didn't you hide when Xue Xinting touched your head?"

"He, he... he meant well." Lingxi said hastily.

"It's kind of me too." Mo Long raised her eyebrows.

Lingxi looked at him suspiciously: "What good intentions do you have?"

"You'll find out later."

Seeing Mo Long stretching out his hand, Lingxi shrunk his neck, finally resisted not moving, let him touch it twice, then jumped away, and asked: "What kind of intentions?"

"Touch your head to see if your three souls and seven souls are still there, did you drift away after seeing Xue Xinting?" He smiled slightly.

Only then did Lingxi realize that he was making fun of herself, and was furious, jumping up to touch his head.The two chased and fled, and turned around the house several times. Finally, Lingxi threw Mo Long under the almond blossom tree, and messed up his hair before giving up.

The apricot blossoms were falling and falling on her body, Mo Long couldn't get up at all, she put her hands behind her head and looked at the rouge dots on the top of her head, like a dream, I don't know what she was thinking... Lingxi saw that he was fascinated, and he also looked at him. Lie down on your side, looking at the splendor above your head, blowing the falling petals with your mouth, very comfortable.

"A Shangxian is a Shangxian, who knows how to live in comfort." Mo Long sighed, "I don't want to leave such a good place once I'm here."

"Me too... It would be great if Mr. Xue was my elder brother."

Lingxi's eyes are shining.

Mo Long was stunned, and turned his head. From such a close distance, he could almost count every eyelash of hers, and he could clearly see the shadow reflected in her pupils: "You want him to be your brother?"

Lingxi sighed and nodded: "I have never seen my brother. When I woke up from the clamshell, he had been away from home for a long time. I think he should be like Mr. Xue, gentle and generous. He would never Get angry... not like my sister, alas!"

Mo Long lay on her side, leaning on her elbow, and sighed, "No wonder you want to find your brother so much."

Lingxi sat up abruptly, and looked around: "We don't know where Shangxian Lannan lives? How to find her? And, where is Mo Ji?"

Mo Long made a silent gesture to her, but Lingxi didn't understand.He whispered: "The birds and horses you see here are all smart, and they can understand what you say."

Lingxi was taken aback, and quickly covered her mouth, looking around with her eyes wide open, still worried, she whispered to Mo Long, "Tell me, do these trees also become spirits?"

"It goes without saying."

This time Lingxi didn't even dare to stay under the tree: "Let's go, let's go back to the house!" She dragged Mo Long and walked into the house. She was so strong that Mo Long couldn't hold her back at all, so she obediently followed her in. Room.

Zhuo Zhuo was staring at the eight boxes in the house in a daze. He had prepared the items in the boxes several months in advance, but it was his attendants who packed the boxes, not him.Originally, he only needed to give an order, and the attendant would take out what he needed from the box and present it to him.But now...he just wanted a loose robe that he would wear at home, but he didn't know which bottom of the box this robe was put in.

"Second prince, do you know that those birds outside are all..." Lingxi was eager to warn Zhuo Zhuo, but saw him frowning, "What's wrong with you?"

Zhuo Zhuo sighed: "I can't find the robe."

Lingxi wondered: "You didn't even open the box, so of course you couldn't find it."

"I don't know which box I'm in, how do I open the box?"

"If you don't open the box, of course you don't know which box it's in." Lingxi didn't quite understand the Second Prince of Beihai.

You glared at me and I glared at you. Mo Long leaned against the door frame and looked at the two of them with interest, thinking: Although Lingxi has a bit of a little princess temper, she can't even cook, but she is better than Zhuo Zhuo. Up, she can't be considered delicate.

After a long while, Zhuo Zhuo was defeated and said in frustration: "I have never done these things before, and they are all people around me...but I was replaced by you again."

When he said this, Lingxi couldn't help feeling a little guilty, and said, "Why don't I come and look for it?"

"You..." Zhuo Zhuo hesitated for a moment, there was no one around, and when it was not polite, he stepped aside and said, "There are gifts I specially prepared for the two celestial beings in the box, so be careful not to mess with them." Messed up."

Lingxi agreed with all her mouth, and remembering what she hadn't finished speaking just now, she quickly winked at Mo Long: "Talk to him about that."

"What's the matter?" Zhuo Zhuo was surprised.

"It's not a big deal, let's talk about it in the hall."

Mo Long didn't care much, turned around and left, Zhuo Zhuo followed him out of the room and sat down in the hall.

This wooden house looks ordinary, but the various furniture and objects are simple but not vulgar, straight but not clumsy, and the preparations are extremely complete.Mo Long opened the bamboo cabinet, and there were ready-made tea sets and boxes of tea cakes inside. He boiled water on the stove, broke off a piece of tea cake, and put it in. After a while, the tea boiled, and the room was filled with fragrance.

Zhuo Zhuo smelled the fragrance, clicked his tongue in appreciation, and took tea cakes to look at.Mo Long brought out three cups of tea, shook the ashes, and then sat down.

"What did Lingxi ask you to tell me just now?" Zhuo Zhuo asked after taking a sip of tea.

Mo Long said: "It's nothing, I told her, don't look at the birds and beasts in this village, don't look at them, they only show their original bodies, they have all cultivated for many years, they are extraordinary spirits and monsters."

Zhuo Zhuo showed surprise.

Mo Long pretended not to notice, and then said: "Lingxi is still inexperienced, so he made a big fuss and rushed to tell you. In fact, Mr. Zhuo, you have already seen it."

Hearing this, Zhuo Zhuo hurriedly put away his astonishment, nodded and said: "Yes, I can see it too... After all, this is where the two immortals lived, an auspicious place, and it was expected and expected that they would become spirits." . . . nothing to make a fuss about.”

Mo Long smiled slightly, took a sip of the tea and sipped the water vapor, his face was vague and unpredictable.Zhuo Zhuo suddenly realized that he knew nothing about the person in front of him, so he impulsively brought him into Tianjing Villa. If something happened to him and angered the two immortals, then Shouldn't he be guilty of death.

"You..." Zhuo Zhuo looked at Mo Long, thought for a while, and then asked, "How did you know the consonance?"

Mo Long didn't hide it from him, so he told how he met Lingxi at the Shibiquan in Xishan, and how he rescued Lingxi from Lord Banyuan in Changliu City later. After hearing that, Zhuo Zhuo was stunned.

"So that's how it is." Zhuo Zhuo sighed, "Lingxi is really worrying, and I don't even think about it. If something goes wrong with her, Qingyue might turn the entire Changliu City upside down."

At this time, Mo Long asked the question that he had been wondering for a long time: "Why doesn't Lingxi have spiritual power?"

"Shh..."

Zhuo Zhuo quickly gestured to him, leaned over to look at the stairs behind the screen, and made sure that Lingxi hadn't come down, nor was he hiding on the stairs to eavesdrop, and then he sat down in peace.

"I shouldn't have told you about this, but since Lingxi is willing to let you know about the lack of spiritual power, he must have a lot of trust in you." He took a sip of tea before looking at Mo Long and asked, "Donghai You should know about the fact that the Dragon Lord and his wife of the Shuifu died at the pillar, right?"

Mo Long nodded: "I've heard of it."

"At that time, the wife was already pregnant with a dragon fetus, and she couldn't bear to let the child die with her, so she peeled off the dragon fetus in advance and kept it in a giant clam."

"I know, it's Lingxi and her brother Lingjun."

"That's the problem!" Zhuo Zhuo sighed, "Lingxi and Lingjun have their own congenital deficiencies in the womb. Compared with Lingjun, Lingxi is even worse. If Madam keeps the baby smoothly, Lingxi will disappear naturally. Her part is used to supplement Lingjun, but..."

Mo Long was stunned, unable to speak for a while: "You mean, consonance shouldn't exist?"

Zhuo Zhuo nodded heavily: "Ling Jun's name is on the Jade Box of the Dragon Clan, but she is not there. If I remember correctly, she just woke up from the clam 200 years ago. Her body is very weak, and she would fall into a coma from time to time. middle……"

Immediately thinking of Lingxi who passed out in the peach blossom forest, Mo Long frowned, and asked in puzzlement: "But she has such great strength, no matter how she looks, she doesn't look like a weak person."

"It was all made up forcibly the day after tomorrow." Zhuo Zhuo said, "Lingjun is missing. Qingyue is in charge of the East China Sea alone. He hurts Lingxi to the bone. I'm afraid that she will have something wrong. Within the four seas , She collected everything that was good for her health, and we Beihai sent supplements to Donghai several times a year. This time, Qingyue is willing to let Lingxi go out, so she must be in good health."

"..."

"She is good in everything, but she likes to lock me up, and she even makes me take medicine. That's not good, especially bad."——Now thinking of what Lingxi said before, it's another feeling, Mo Long was in a daze, completely forgetting Zhuo Zhuo beside her.

After a while, there was a sound from the stairs behind the screen, and someone came down the stairs at a trot.

Holding a pack of pine nuts in his hand, Lingxi smelled the fragrance of tea, walked around the screen, and said happily: "You guys are drinking tea, just in time! Second prince, no wonder you have so much luggage, you even have snacks with you. Look, this is Pine nuts, I just found them."

Seeing the brocade bag in her hand, Zhuo Zhuo hurriedly jumped up, leaned forward to take it: "No! No...don't move!"

Lingxi was stunned, and said in surprise: "Is it broken? Is it poisonous?"

Zhuo Zhuo first took the bag of pine nuts from her hand, and said with care: "This is the pine nuts I want to present to Lannan Shangxian. Every one has been carefully selected by me, and I can't mess around with it."

"...I thought this was your attendant bringing you food..." Lingxi never thought that a bag of pine nuts would be a gift, "Don't worry, I haven't touched any of them."

"You didn't move anything else, did you?"

"...Probably not...." Lingxi is also trying to remember.

Zhuo Zhuo was worried after thinking about it, so he hurried upstairs to check in the wing room.

Feeling as if she had gotten into trouble, Lingxi didn't dare to follow, and sat down next to Mo Long dawdly, paying attention to the movement upstairs, and inadvertently realized that Mo Long had been looking at her, his eyes were a little different from usual, It made her feel guilty.

"What's the matter?" She pursed her lips uneasily, and suddenly felt very wronged, "I just packed his things for him, I didn't do anything bad."

Mo Longfang lowered her eyes, smiled shyly, and pushed the cup of tea that was just poured towards her: "Drink it."

"I really don't understand, he would give Lannan a bag of pine nuts? What do you think?" Lingxi was puzzled, "They have a lot of treasures in Beihai, so it wouldn't be rude to take out any of them."

Mo Long reminded her: "Don't you forget, what is Lannan Shangxian's real body?"

"Blue Bird Lannan." Lingxi suddenly realized, "She is a bird, so she naturally likes fruits. Zhuo Zhuo knows how to cater to what she likes." Then she thought of something, and secretly teased Zhuo Zhuo: "Tell me, will he prepare a Bag bug?"

Seeing her smiling like a flower, Mo Long was a little dazed—someone who shouldn't exist?How could it be her?How can such a person who lives in front of him be someone who shouldn't exist?

As soon as Lingxi had a sip of tea, she heard Zhuo Zhuo's voice calling her from upstairs, the short word "Lingxi", filled with unspeakable sorrow, made her hair stand on end, and instinctively looked at Mo Long for help .

"What are you afraid of? It's not that his house was demolished."

Mo Long didn't care, got up and pulled her, and went upstairs.
