Chapter XXXIX

If it was placed in the past, Mo Chuan would never want to recall the incident of Feng Qicheng, but now that Xiaobai has returned to him safely, even the spiritual root, although he has a little congenital defect, he has already found a solution, and there is something annoying about him.

→ if you ignore the ticking time bomb of the main character.

So he generously introduced Qi Ling to Xiaobai, including the situation of the ghost at that time, and probably made some explanations, after all, Xiaobai has grown up, even if he has a heart, but Mo Chuan feels that it is still necessary for him to understand the reason.

Over-protecting, just like Qi Ling two hundred years ago, who was pampered and didn't experience any setbacks, was raised in the palm of his hand and couldn't see a little dirty child, when disaster came, he was often the most helpless.

Mo Chuan was also confident that under his protection, Xiaobai would not suffer any disasters, but the accident under the city gate that year undoubtedly gave him a loud slap.

He and Qi Ling's father are the same people, too conceited and too precious, but they have buried hidden dangers for their loved ones with their own hands.

So he would be soft-hearted when facing Qi Ling, in the final analysis, it was just that he saw Xiaobai's shadow in her.

He gave Qi Ling a fairly stable life, and Qi Ling's turbulent past in the original book also turned into a colorful and dilapidated dream with the change of a certain node, and only when he occasionally remembered it, Mo Chuan would sigh alone for a while.

It's just that while low-key praise for quietly saving the complete blackening of a small white flower, there will also be a faint loneliness.

- This kind of sour feeling of crooked plot, who understands!

"......" At least for now, Mo Jiukong can't understand it yet, so although when Mo Chuan explained Qi Ling's identity, he felt that Mo Chuan was a little distracted, and he was used to expressing calmness.

On the other hand, this is also a manifestation of trust.

Qi Ling's matter is not the point, the most important part is the next heart-to-heart talk.

Well, that is, the experience of the two people who have been separated for many years.

Mo Chuan is okay, he first lived in the unemployed abyss for a hundred years, and then wandered around to find treasures in various places, the experience was simple to monotonous, and there was nothing to dig deep into.

If he had to say that there was, it was probably how he knew so many treasure locations, but which monk didn't have a few secrets, let alone cultivated to the point of Blood Flame Venerable, it was not uncommon to be able to detect the treasure places that everyone didn't know.

Mo Chuan did not explain the treasure hunt in detail, nor did he mention the words of the Ancient Desert Cave Mansion in his words, let alone show those "shocking" treasures to Xiaobai.

He also had a plan to hide these secrets.

At the latest, he will also fall after three hundred years, and Xiaobai's cultivation is also improving, although two hundred years have passed and it is only the transformation period, but there is also a spiritual root, although the spiritual root qualification is not very good, but there is also a way to improve, and the road to walk in the future must be much longer than his.

These things may be taken away by the monk after he ascends, but in his situation, it is unlikely that he will even have a whole corpse, so there will be no second person except Xiaobai for these things in the future.

Maybe he will leak some points to his subordinates as needed, including Qi Ling, but those ideas are still just a prototype, and he hasn't thought about them carefully before, but the only thing that is undoubtedly is that the vast majority of them still have to be left to Xiaobai.

It's just that Xiaobai's cultivation is still shallow at this time, and the strength of the Yuan Period, even if it is his subordinates who are not very strong, they can easily solve him with a casual wave of their hand, and it is only a touch of duckweed in the entire cultivation world.

In this case, the secret of the treasure map is not suitable for the current Xiaobai to know, and it is more secure at the right time - at least until he is stronger before delivering.

The more tempting the secret, the stronger the strength to guard.

Concealment, sometimes out of a protective mentality.

That's why Mo Chuan intentionally or unintentionally didn't tell the depths.

Mo Chuan's situation was really normal, and Mo Jiukong was also careful in his heart, so he didn't think deeply.

Unlike Mo Chuan's frankness, it was troublesome for him to explain, and out of some cautious intention, he had no intention of confessing at the moment.

Maybe he was too cautious, so he didn't want to see any accidents, or maybe it was cowardice, he subconsciously chose to hide it.

But this kind of concealment is obviously not easy to carry out to the end, he deliberately conceals it, but he has no intention of deceiving, but since he has concealed it, in order not to reveal the flaws, it is inevitable that the explanation will bring lies.

But concealment itself is a disguised deception.

He could only think as much as he could, bypassing each sentence in his mind three times before slowly spitting it out.

He spoke slowly, in Mo Chuan's opinion, it seemed that he was not very willing to recall the past, and he was not in a good mood, so he didn't urge him, only listened quietly, and only occasionally responded to one or two sentences.

The story told by Xiaobai is not complicated, the young fox demon was teleported to a remote forest in the far north by the murder weapon that tore through the void, fortunately his life was safe, but unfortunately there were monks nearby, and the fox demon who turned into the prototype in a hurry was targeted, and he was injured a little and could not escape, and was caught back by the monks (clansmen), and came to a place that seemed to be the sect (the residence of the ice fox clan).

Perhaps it was the idea of taming it, but later he discovered the abnormality of his body, and after he refused to show meek cooperation, he was imprisoned, and it was at that time that his body was buried with the scourge of chills from time to time.

Later, he was thrown into a formation (Misty Array), he spent an unknown amount of time in it in a drowsy state, and finally one day his formation was broken by someone, and the sect was destroyed, and he took the opportunity to escape.

Then he listened all the way, zigzagged south, and chose to detour from the Western Regions in order to avoid the chaos in the Central Plains, but was targeted by people as soft persimmons, and was forced all the way into the depths of the Red Wind Desert.

And then there was that encounter.

was captured and imprisoned, it was all true, but the details were skipped, and the fox demon who captured him became a monk. I don't know who the people who broke the formation were, and it was true that the whole house was destroyed, but it was not a sect, it was a clan. As for the desert experience, I really had to make up a paragraph.

His words were also incoherent, somewhat intermittent.

to secretly fit Mo Chuan's mind.

Also, unpleasant experiences always make people reluctant to recall, even if it is him, it is only after Xiaobai comes back that he can calmly recall the events of Fengqicheng back then.

After Mo Jiukong finished speaking, he smiled slightly, a little shy

The atmosphere was a little low for a while, as if you could hear the sound of air flowing slowly.

That smile made Mo Chuan feel down, and he stretched out his hand and covered Xiaobai's hand with some hesitation.

To comfort the incompetent people with language disabilities, it is better to express your love for Xiaobaihua with practical actions.

Mo Jiukong lowered his eyes and looked at the hand that was gently placed on the back of his hand.

The five fingers are slender and powerful, and besides, they are right-handed.

He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have saved one of Mo Chuan's right hands, but there was only a pile of white bones left, and two phalanges were used up because of the calculation of Mo Chuan's location.

Mo Jiukong, who had just finished lying, stared at the hand, the hand that was intact, silently outlining the position of the bones in his heart.

Mo Chuan didn't speak, he didn't speak, the atmosphere was extremely silent for a while, and there was an undercurrent surging, and it seemed that it was not just painful.

It's like ......

- This is love, and you can't say it.

↑

You must feel the warmth of this world.

In the silence, Mo Chuan thought so sadly.

From the beginning of this heart-to-heart conversation, it seems that some kind of strange switch has been turned on, and the sense of estrangement between the two people due to the long-term separation is silently dissolving.

After Mo Jiukong went to Mo Chuan for warmth in the middle of the night because of an attack of cold poison in his body, and successfully stayed in Mo Chuan's room, the intimacy between the two people went to a higher level.

Since Mo Jiukong returned to the life of loving Mo Chuan, there is nothing unsatisfactory in the whole person, don't care about anything else, let him pester Mo Chuan for a while to relieve the thoughts in his heart that are about to devour him.

The two of them go in and out together all day long, and they have to hold hands side by side when they see the scenery, and they have nothing to do (birch and crab), Mo Jiukong feels that this kind of life can't be more comfortable.

…… Except, Qi Ling.

In Qi Ling's words, it is: It's like a little girl who hasn't grown up.

With a disdainful look and a mocking tone, the girl made an in-depth criticism of Mo Jiukong's behavior of sticking to Mo Chuan every day from age to gender.

Qi Ling didn't know what was going on, although she knew that this little fox was nothing that was too much of a threat to her, but as soon as she saw him, there was always a feeling in her heart that she couldn't tell what it was, and once she wanted to feel it carefully, it would disappear quickly.

The girl thought about it and put this strange feeling down to a sense of crisis.

As for the source of the sense of crisis......

It's probably the hostility targeted by the son of his sweetheart.

- It's hard to be a stepmother, I know it.
