"One more point," Li continued, "In my heart, there is nothing that can make me feel more valuable than cultivating immortals. I want to attain the highest level of alchemy, to be omnipotent and invincible. ”

She raised the corners of her mouth and smiled with understanding, Nangong Douling is not like this, she also wants to be a strong person, she understands his mood quite well at the moment;

The feeling of being in tune with his heart was like plugging into the same socket as him, and passing the same current as him.

Li's mind was not as gentle and polite as his apparent personality, and his ambitions were not trivial, and she had long seen his ambition to soar into the sky from his eyes that had hidden countless secrets.

There must be a beast lurking in his subconscious that will not be easily revealed.

The plants in the courtyard are luxuriant, the oily green leaves drip down the droplets, refracting the glow, colorful, take a deep breath of cool air, the fragrance of plants and rain fills the body, so that her originally heavy heart is suddenly relaxed.

The dining room is next door to the kitchen, and the two rooms are connected, separated by a sliding door.

When I passed by the kitchen before, the door of the restaurant was tightly closed, and I missed the visit, but now I opened the door and walked in to take a look, Nangong Douling was stunned;

Under the towering beams of the house is a huge and luxurious long solid wood table.

Nangong Douling has never seen such a long table in his life, extending from one side of the room to the other, and it feels like if both sides are full, it can accommodate at least a hundred people.

Li Xuan sat at the head of the table as the master;

Nangong Douling sat on his left hand side, looking at the end of the table that was almost endless, "Do you want to be so exaggerated? Your table is so long, suppose I sit in the middle and want to go to the opposite side, my legs will be broken, and I can only drill under the table or climb the table faster." ”

"You have such a strange idea, you are bothered by such a question, who would suddenly go to the other side of the table on the way to dinner?"

The tortoiseshell came out of the kitchen, his short figure floating on Nangong Douling's shoulders, although he was hunched over, but the way he placed the dishes and chopsticks was very neat.

"If this table is full of dishes, it must be spectacular. Nangong Douling sighed.

"It has never been full, where do I go to entertain so many guests? This table is matched with this palace, such a large restaurant, you can't have a very small family table, I think when an emperor came here for a holiday and dinner, there will be the kind of spectacular and extraordinary scene you said. ”

"Uncle, you said that your master is rarely at home, most of the time you live alone, you eat at such a big table every day, and you guard such a deserted palace, every room is empty, no one smells, you don't have to go to school, just study yourself here, look at your virtue should not go out much, this kind of day is ten years, are you not lonely, not lonely? How did you survive? Shigong let you manage this palace, it is too unfair to you. ”

Li Xuan was silent for a while, "With the company of Shijin, I won't be too lonely, but occasionally I do miss the breath of people, the whole house is just a human being, sometimes there will be an illusion of isolation, but the master did not force me to manage this palace, I can leave at any time, even if I move to the city to live, the master will not have an opinion, just ......"

Li Xuan fell into a state of preoccupation and refused to continue talking. Gong Douling asked, "It's just what, it's just? It's an abominable sin to hang people's appetites." ”

Li Xuan just stopped talking, and when he was determined to remain silent, no one could pry his mouth open.

The tortoiseshell came over with a plate of steamed fish, put it on the table, and quietly bowed down to Nangong Douling's ear and said, "The master refuses to move, because he is afraid that his mother will come back to him in the future and will not find him." ”

Nangong Douling suddenly realized.

Li Xuan stiffened his face, "Tortoiseshell, what are you talking to Douchi? ”

But his sternness is never enough to deterrence, and the kindness in his bones makes him as warm as water, even if he is angry, he can't feel the slightest murderous aura;

Instead, the tortoiseshell smiled and played sloppy with him, "Master, there are some things that you can't say if you don't say them, and it's uncomfortable, so I'll say it for you." ”

"What the hell did you say?"

"The master might as well ask the bell. The tortoiseshell went back to the kitchen and continued to be busy.

Li Xuan squinted his eyes at her, his expression as if to say that if she didn't recruit her, he would keep this posture and look at her all night.

After staring at him for a long time, Nangong Douling felt his cheeks burn, it's over, how can he bear the starry eyes of Uncle Shi?

She looked away, "The tortoiseshell is just asking me if I like scrambled eggs." ”

"You lie to me, did he tell you about my mother?"

Nangong Douling knew that he didn't like to talk about his mother, just like a cat didn't like to step on someone's tail, and the word mother was probably the biggest pain in his heart.

She tried to get the topic away: "I don't know what happened to Amber, and I don't know if the water in Qingcheng has receded, I have to go back and pack up the magic weapons." ”

Although Shikijin doesn't have to be by her side, she can also summon them in human form from a distance, but she can't see the true bodies of Shikishen, and her heart is still bottomless, and there is a red lotus treasure knife that she can't remember.

"One day and one night, the water level in the whole city has only dropped fifty meters, and it will take two or three days to completely expose the street, and then I will accompany you back, even if the master is not around, Shikijin will definitely take care of himself, the disaster has been stopped for you, the citizens are safe, Shikijin is a powerful creature with spells, I think it is unlikely that something will happen." ”

Successfully diverted his attention, Nangong Douling showed a smug smile, and Li Xuan was really easy to deal with.

Li Xuan said: "There is also your Green Dragon Soul Attracting Banner, I will place him on the knife holder in the study. ”

"I knew that Uncle Shi would help me keep it properly, so I didn't ask more, by the way, it's getting dark, why hasn't Suicao woken up yet?"

Nangong Douling was puzzled, saying that Cao Cao Cao had arrived.

There was a sound of bare feet stomping on the wooden floor at the door.

Nangong Douling looked back, and Suicao walked in lazily, curled up with big waves hanging on his shoulders, with a messy charm.

As soon as she appeared, Nangong Douling's eyes suddenly became one big and one small, her eyebrows were high and low, and her expression was shocked.

Suicao was also a little stunned, "Douling?

"Finally recognized me. ”

"The facial features haven't changed much, so I recognize it at once, what about your beard?"

"Shaved. Don't talk about this yet," Nangong Douling pushed away the chair and walked over to Sui Cao, looking at her loose men's shirt with an angry look, the long hem dangling near her thighs, and a pair of light shorts looming;

Nangong Douling condensed his gaze and observed carefully, which are these shorts, these are boxers, plus such an old-fashioned check pattern, it is obvious that Li Xu's is broken, how can he wear it on Suicao?
