Chapter Twenty-Six: A Wish Fulfilled
Li Vortex finally couldn't hold back, she went to Xuanyuan Jimo and asked about Tang Wuyi.
She didn't have time during the day, so she sneaked out at night when everyone was asleep. When she was caught by Xuanyuan Jimo on the roof that day, she saw the direction in which Xuanyuan Jimo went back, and with her memory, she decided to look in that direction.
The moonlight is like water, and such a beautiful night, if there is nothing to do, it is good to go out for a walk.
The pear vortex and the girls slept in a row on a very long bed, each with their own independent bedding that did not affect each other. The pear vortex with his eyes closed has already made up his mind to go to Xuanyuan Jimo tonight to ask what is going on, but everyone has already fallen asleep, I don't know if Xuanyuan Jimo is asleep, if he also sleeps, the pear vortex plans to sneak back quietly, if he doesn't sleep, it's best.
Ridovora opened her eyes, the moonlight shone on her face, the room was bright and quiet, she half-sat up from the bed, saw that they were still asleep, relieved, she climbed out of bed, put on her clothes lightly, and then looked at them again, unaffected in the slightest, Ritouzaki was satisfied, she folded the quilt, ready to sneak out.
"It's not me, it's all the dead girl from the pear vortex. ”
Listening to the voice, the pear vortex felt like Jiang Qiyue, and now it's over, and Jiang Qiyue found out, so it's better to say that she is sleepwalking! The pear vortex looked in the direction where the sound came from, Jiang Qiyue was still asleep, it turned out that she was talking in a dream! In the dream, she didn't forget to find her own stubble. Anyway, Rivortex breathed a long sigh of relief, and with a creak the door opened, and Rivoraki opened the door and ran into the night.
She remembered the general direction of Xuanyuan Jimo when she went back, but she didn't know exactly which room it was, so she could only find them one by one, only the room with the lights on.
In addition to the conspicuous attic on the street, there is also a large courtyard, and the attic is not a lonely building, but a conforming building, which has many rooms, and the secret place lies in the center of this building, if you are close to the core part, you can hear the roar inside.
Xuanyuan Jimo did not live in this building, only those servants who were responsible for receiving, transmitting and sorting out the news every day lived in this building, and they did not live in this building that looked extremely beautiful on the outside, they lived in the side hall next to this building, Xuanyuan Jimo was not in the side hall, he lived in the most hidden building in the garden.
Every morning, Xuanyuan Jimo would go from his residence to the message reception room of the Tongling Pavilion, read the important news, and then ask someone to come and pick it up and sell it to those guests who were willing to pay a high price, but no one had ever seen Xuanyuan Jimo walk down that road early in the morning.
Pear Vortex climbed to the roof and looked at the house, the second floor was still lit, great, Pear Vortex was secretly happy. Then she went to the first floor of the main hall full of hope, but the problem was that she had to enter the house to go up to the second floor, and when she entered the house, she only saw a circular hollow in the center with a floor and a second floor, and there were no stairs.
After a moment, Rivoraki focused her eyes on a red satin hanging from the roof above, and there was nothing, and it seemed that she could only rely on this red satin.
The pear vortex walked to the middle, pulled the hanging red silk with his hand, and began to climb up little by little, until he was three feet above the ground, he couldn't climb anymore, fell from mid-air, and slammed to the floor.
Xuanyuan Jimo meditates in the southernmost room on the second floor, most of the time he uses this way to calm and rest his body, but he doesn't stop going to bed, he also goes to bed and sleeps on his back.
At this time, Xuanyuan Jimo seemed to hear the sound in the hall, but he still didn't move, as if he hadn't heard it, and didn't care at all.
Ritsuri tried again, this time she didn't fall directly, but slipped off the rope, after these two experiences, Ritsui was able to clearly sense that she couldn't go up to the second floor just by relying on this silk, and she wanted to have a spell, and the feeling of being a person who could fly became strong again.
In desperation, Li Vortex could only sit on the ground and wail, this time Xuanyuan Jimo heard the voice, he knew that Pear Vortex was coming.
"Where are you crying and what, and why are you here with me?"
Xuanyuan Jimo stood on the second floor and looked at the ground with an expressionless face, and he saw the pear vortex squatting on the ground crying.
Ritsuki was startled by this sound and immediately stopped, she knew that it was not appropriate for her to make a fuss here late at night, but it was worth it for her idea to come true.
"Your house is so strange, why don't you have stairs? Do you fly everywhere you go on weekdays?" Li Vortex pointed to the second floor where Xuanyuan Jimo was located, and after thinking about it, he felt that only the only way to fly could go from the first floor to the second floor.
Xuanyuan Jimo felt that she was really stupid, this was not a problem for him at all, he had many ways to transfer himself from the first floor to the second floor, and flying was just the most commonly used method. However, this also made Xuanyuan Jimo realize that he had to hand over the pear vortex spell as soon as possible.
"What are you going to do when you come to me at night?"
"I want to ......," Riwirl muttered, wondering if Xuanyuan Jimo would now reject what was possible out of unhappiness.
"I want to ask you when we're going to Hundred Flowers Island?"
"When did you become so concerned about this matter, even if you really became very different from before, you wouldn't come to me in the middle of the night to ask me this question, right?
"I would like to ask you if I can take a tour of the capital before I go to Hundred Flowers Island, I am here for the first time and want to see it, and I have a friend's home here, so ...... Is that okay?"
After Pear Vortex finished speaking cautiously, he looked at Xuanyuan Jimo with expectant eyes.
"The friend you're talking about is Tang Wuyi, right?"
Before Pear Vortex could say who that friend was, Xuanyuan Jimo guessed it, and Pear Vortex was both surprised and delighted.
"No!" Xuanyuan Jimo decisively refused, the surprise that the pear vortex had just come was shattered without a trace by this categorical refusal, she was a little angry, she shouldn't have any illusions and expectations for Xuanyuan Jimo, he was still the ruthless Xuanyuan Jimo.
"Why not? I just want to go out for a walk, and I can promise that I won't miss my work for the day, or I can skip my meals. ”
Ritsui seemed to be roaring these words out of her throat, as an indictment of Xuanyuan Jimo's dissatisfaction.
"You are only 5 years old, it is not safe for you to go by yourself, although the security of the capital is stronger than other places, but there are many places where dirt is hidden secretly, besides, you said that Tang Wuyi's home is the famous Tang Mansion in the capital, you are a 5-year-old girl who can only look at it at the door, and you have to risk being driven away. ”
Li Vortex put away the thorns just now, she felt as if she had a distrust of Xuanyuan Jimo in her bones, what he said was indeed very reasonable, she didn't even know if these truths were specially made up by him to convince her, or if he thought so.
"But I want to go. After going to the Hundred Flowers Island you mentioned, I don't know when I will be able to come out, and I don't want to think too much about the future, I can only take one step at a time, and fight for a little bit for myself, so that even if I don't meet my expectations, I can count myself as working hard, so that I won't regret it. ”
Pear Vortex said what she just said seriously, these are all her hearts, no matter what Xuanyuan Jimo's reaction is, she has to express it.
"Looks like you've made up your mind, and if I say no, you'll resent me in the future. Xuanyuan Jimo said jokingly.
Rivoraki nodded earnestly.
Xuanyuan Jimo was a little moved, she was just an ordinary child, but he never treated her as an ordinary child, maybe his requirements were too strict, but this was always good.
"Then let's go check it out!"
Ritsuki was about to jump up in surprise, but she was still not sure whether Xuanyuan Jimo was perfunctory to her, or really wanted to help her, the capital was indeed dangerous for a 5-year-old girl like her, so she was a little risky to be alone.
"Is it okay for you to come with me?" Pear Vortex deliberately pretended to plead, staring at Xuanyuan Jimo with big divine eyes.
"I can be with you, but not as Xuanyuan Jimo!"
"Huh~" Pear Vortex didn't understand what he wanted to express, "Not in your own identity, then in what identity, it won't be ......" Pear Vortex fell into a burst of horror.
"What do you want to think at a young age? Of course, it's low-key, change to an ordinary person's dress!" Xuanyuan Jimo actually became arrogant.
Li Vortex glanced at him with strange eyes, this kind of Xuanyuan Jimo was much more likable than the ruthless him before.
"Then when are we going?" The pear vortex also became much softer, she couldn't wait, those fun places in the capital, those places that appeared in Tang Wuyi's memory, she was going to go there to feel Tang Wuyi's life.
"How about going tomorrow?" asked Xuanyuan as if he had already made up his mind.
"Okay!" Of course, Li Vortex is very willing, but fortunately, Xuanyuan Jimo's date is advanced enough, which is exactly what she wants, she has to go out early!
"It's late at night, you can go back quickly! You don't have to come here late at night if you have something to do, you can tell Bing Ji or come to me when you have time during the day!"
"Huh? Binghime...... She doesn't seem to like me!"
"Why do you care if she likes you or not, I asked her to supervise and guide you, she gets paid from me, she does her best, you have to remember that there is no personal grudge between you, you don't need to be afraid of her, just do your own thing as required!"
"Got it!"
After Xuanyuan Jimo finished speaking, he disappeared into the lights inside the railing on the second floor, and the pear vortex also retreated.
The night was cold, and when Li Vortex came back from Xuanyuan Jimo's residence, he had to hold his arms with both hands, and he couldn't sneak out so late in the future.
When he returned to his residence, his bed was still brighter than when the pear vortex left, and he was relieved to see that they were still asleep.
"What are you sneaking out to do at night" Someone in the dark grabbed the hand of the pear vortex, the voice was cold and serious, like a dagger, piercing the gentle sleep of the night, the pear vortex was stunned, frightened, but turned around and saw An Fuxue holding a dagger with a sharp blade in his hand, facing him.
"What are you going to do? Put down the knife in your hand, I'm so scared. I...... I just can't sleep and go out and see!"
"You're lying!"
"Shhhh
"Are you scared?"
"Miss An, I don't know you at all, and I don't have the slightest holiday, even if I do something, it's my freedom, why are you holding on to me?"
"Of course you don't recognize me, our An family is one of the eight surnames of Kyoto in the capital, how can you know me from a wild girl from a border town?"
Rivora didn't expect such a good-looking girl to have such a strong contempt for her, even if she wasn't from the capital, let alone a big family, she didn't do anything, why did she treat her like this?
"I'm from Dogwood Town, it's like a fairyland, although it's not as prosperous as the capital, but her beauty is also something that the capital doesn't have, although I'm from a flower farmer's family, but why are you insulting me like this?"
"Pear Vortex, don't you understand? Everyone here is better than you, although you came first, you should also be self-aware, stay away from the pavilion master, and do your own thing, but you don't, do you think you are very familiar with the pavilion master or have a good relationship? So you harass him every night? You better stay away from him. ”
"It's because of Xuanyuan Jimo!" Li Vortex suddenly realized now, it turned out that all the bad treatment she received was because they were jealous of their good relationship with the pavilion master of the Tongling Pavilion, but was her relationship with Xuanyuan Jimo really good? Do they think that they want to stay in this ghost place like them? No, she doesn't want to at all, but there is no way to change it at present, what else can she do except adapt?
"I don't care about your business, you don't care about me, even if you are a young lady of a big family, please respect yourself!"
Ritsuki had tried her best to be polite, she didn't want to do anything right now, she was happy about tomorrow, and she didn't want to ruin her mood because of this.
Pear Vortex no longer cared about her, broke free of her hand, and climbed onto the bed, An Fuxue did not stop her anymore, she put away her dagger, her eyes looked unusually beautiful and sharp under the moonlight, a seed of hatred had been planted in her heart, what she said just now Pear Vortex acquiesced! She let out two sneers, the look on her face was not like what a 5-year-old girl should have, and it made people feel scared at a glance!
