Chapter Eighty-Six: Counting is Counting
It wasn't until he heard the old wooden door panel squeak and close that Zixian slowly opened his eyes.
Raising his heavy arm and touching his hair, the tentacles were silky, except for a few white hostas scattered around his sideburns, there was nothing.
What about the Linglong Pagoda? Zixian's heart was anxious. If there is no pagoda, what will you do to fight Nezha with your mortal body?
Laboriously propped himself up, lifted the pillows and bedding, and there was still no shadow of the pagoda.
How so...... Zixian's heart seemed to be doused with a scoop of cold water, and the only hope was shattered.
A red light flashed in front of the bed, and Nezha's figure slowly emerged.
"You're looking for this, aren't you?" Nezha stretched out his palm, and there was a golden "hairpin" lying quietly on it, which was the Linglong Pagoda.
"You...... Give it back! Zixian's voice was slightly hoarse after not speaking for a long time, and the arms supporting her body trembled slightly overwhelmed.
"Haha, you're really joking, give it back to you? Do you want to use it to collect me? Nezha looked at Zixian mockingly, holding the Linglong Pagoda in his hand, "What's more, this pagoda was originally my Li family's thing, and it is justified in my hands, how can I return what you say?" ”
Zixian Fang wanted to argue, but when the words came to his lips, he stopped. I secretly said in my heart, this man is a sword, I am a fish, and it is useless to take advantage of my tongue. This Nezha seems to be very principled, in order to protect himself, I can't say that I Mozixian will be despicable once.
Thinking of this, the corners of Zixian's mouth hooked, a soft smile appeared on his pale face, and he said weakly: "What the third prince said is that this pagoda originally belonged to your Li family, and it should be returned to its original owner." ”
When Nezha heard Zixian's words, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then nodded slightly: "It's good that you know." I've already fried the medicine, so let's take it while it's hot. ”
Zixian nodded obediently: "Okay." Thank you, Third Prince. ”
Nezha seriously doubted that Zixian was sick and confused, why was there such a big contrast with his previous performance?
Although he was a little uncomfortable, Zixian's well-behaved and obedient appearance was still something he was happy to see. So he didn't talk nonsense, he reached out and grabbed the void, and the medicine bowl that was originally in the kitchen was grabbed by him.
Nezha helped Zixian up and let her lean on top of her, scooping up a spoonful of jet-black medicinal juice and putting it to her lips.
Zixian frowned lightly, sipping the bitter medicinal juice in small sips, her long eyelashes drooping, and her slight tremors were like butterfly wings.
Looking at Zixian's beautiful face, feeling that Zixian's soft body was so close to him, Nezha only felt that his cheeks were hot, his heart was pounding as if he was about to jump out of his chest, and the hand holding the spoon was trembling a little.
It's so uncomfortable, she must have done some kind of magic by her! This Mozi Immortal is really a terrifying demon compared to the charm and the ghosts combined! Nezha thought hatefully.
"Third prince?" Zixian saw that the spoon was empty, and Nezha was still stunned, and couldn't help but call out loud.
Nezha's body was shocked, and when he came back to his senses, he suddenly felt embarrassed. But he has always been proud, but he didn't want to lose face in front of Zixian, so he put on a straight face and said angrily: "It's really troublesome!" ”
"Otherwise, I'll do it myself." Zixian looked at him innocently with clear eyes. But I thought in my heart, this person is really moody, he loses his temper for no reason, and his ears are red when he is angry.
Nezha shoved the medicine bowl into Zixian's hand, turned around and walked out with a frosty face.
Unexpectedly, before he reached the door, he heard "Bang! There was a crisp sound, and when I looked back, the plain porcelain medicine bowl was smashed to the ground, and the medicine juice splashed on the ground.
"You!" Nezha couldn't help but be angry, he took a lot of effort to steal the spirit grass, and she was so bad.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I really didn't hold it......" Zixian looked at Nezha's expression of wanting to eat people with an uneasy face, and said in a trembling voice.
"It's stupid! You can't even hold a bowl, what else can you do?! Nezha scolded while casting a spell to clean up.
Zixian secretly sneered, you little cub dare to scold me, sister will let you see what I can do later!
Thinking like this, Zixian was not angry, but said pitifully: "Third prince, you should kill me directly, anyway, my disease can't be cured......"
"Hugh is going to talk nonsense!" I don't know why, Nezha was angry when he heard Zixian's self-defeating statement.
Zixian said aggrievedly: "I didn't talk nonsense. That day, in order to catch the rat demon, I accidentally fell into its demon poison, except for its inner pill, all medicinal stones were useless. ”
Nezha stopped what he was doing and tilted his head to look at Zixian: "What you said is true?" ”
Zixian nodded: "Of course it's true, there is a cloud in the "Poison Sutra": where snakes and rats are infested, there must be an antidote within a hundred steps." The antidote to the poison of this rat demon is its inner pill! ”
Nezha didn't know how to deal with medicine, so he believed it when he heard Zixian's words.
"Where is that rat demon now? I'm going to find it for you, and I'll take the inner pill to detoxify you. ”
"Actually, it's right here. In the delicate pagoda in your hands. Zixian said.
"That's easy, I'll take it out."
Nezha said, learning from Li Tianwang's previous appearance, threw the Linglong Pagoda into the air, and said, "Open!" ”
The light of the Linglong Pagoda flickered slightly, and then it fell to the ground with a "click".
"How so?!" Nezha's eyes widened in astonishment. What's going on? Why didn't this tower listen to its command?
Nezha didn't believe in evil, and tried many times, and the Linglong Pagoda fell to the ground again and again, but there was no sign of opening.
"Third prince, why don't you let me try?" Zixian whispered.
Nezha immediately became alert: "Mozi Xian, you won't be playing tricks on me, right?" ”
"How so? You are so good to me, how could I fool you? I just wanted to save myself. Zixian said with a sincere face.
Yes, I'm here to save myself, but I'm really playing tricks on you.
"Well, I'll trust you once, you don't have to play tricks." Nezha handed over the Linglong Pagoda suspiciously.
Zixian took over the Linglong Pagoda, and just wanted to take Nezha according to the original plan, but suddenly had another idea in his mind.
Although Nezha is like a child, after all, he is already an old immortal who is tens of thousands of years old, how can he not have a long brain at all, and be so easily deceived by himself? If that's the case, then he has lived in vain for tens of thousands of years.
Could it be that he is tempting me? If so, then this pagoda must not be real. If he had made a rash move just now, he would have died now and had no place to be buried.
Zixian couldn't help but secretly pinch a cold sweat. It's so dangerous, I almost fell into a trap.
Since this pagoda is nine times out of ten fake, then for the sake of today's plan, I can only plan and gain his trust first.
Thinking of this, Zixian also pinched the pagoda, threw it into the air extremely seriously, and shouted in his mouth: "Open!" ”
The pagoda unsurprisingly did not move. Zixian sneered in his heart, and sure enough, he guessed correctly, this is not the real Linglong Pagoda at all.
