"Roar......." Maomao's tiger face made a smiling expression and gave a short greeting to the visitor in the courtyard. The person in front of him didn't look at it, and walked straight into the house.

Maomao's expression was stiff: Cut! Isn't it just a guy who came to my house to eat and live, what's the big deal!

Angry, I'm going to find my eldest brother and ask for two more chickens later.

"I'm back." Yuan Qinqin caught a glimpse of Hong Ling dragging into the small courtyard. She was tidying up the kitchenette, and the freshly prepared meal was already on the table.

Ao Suo went to the Misty Apricot Forest retreat, and she didn't say if she wanted to eat, so she acquiesced that he didn't need to eat. Isn't he a youkai? Even if he wasn't a monster, such a big person should be able to take care of his own food, and she never worried about his ability to take care of himself.

However, the amount of food on the dinner table has not changed, because there is a regular customer who rubs the rice. Since the negotiation of the Misty Apricot Forest, Hong Ling often came here involuntarily, so much so that he simply became a permanent resident later.

Ao Suo was not there, Yuan Qinqin simply took his room away, and Hong Ling was not polite when he saw it, and directly used it as his own room.

"Come, eat, eat." Yuan Qinqin greeted.

Hong Ling lay on the table, raised his eyes, and felt that he was dazzled, how could this Yuan Qinqin change every day?

I don't know if it's been too good recently, the mood and body of the older young woman are very comfortable, Hong Ling visually observed, at this rate, Yuan Qinqin will soon be so fat that Ao Suo will not know when he comes back.

Seeing this second person unconsciously stuffing food into his mouth, Hong Ling felt an inexplicable heart stop. This feeling is like your own fat pet overeating, and I can't help but want to go up and grab the food from its mouth and beat it up.

Resisting this impulse, Hong Lingsi picked up the dishes and chopsticks and said, "Eat less, you have gained a lot of weight." ”

Yuan Qinqin raised her head when she heard this, and when she saw the look on Hong Ling's face, in addition to indifference, she also had some faint concern, and instantly became happy, and said with a smile: "It's okay, eat more to have the strength to work." What's more, I have such a physique, as long as I eat and sleep well, I will get fat when I drink water, and it is difficult to starve in order to stay slim. "She's the breadwinner of the family, so what can she do when she's hungry.

Hong Ling twitched the corners of his mouth, as long as you were happy.

"I see how you look today, it seems that you are in a bad mood, has something happened?" Yuan Qinqin said while biting a steamed bun in her hand.

Hong Ling said lightly: "I look like this every day." ”

"No, today is very different, I can feel it. Did someone bully you? ”

The chopsticks in Hong Ling's hand stopped.

She has not had a rich expression since she was a child, and others seem to be indifferent or calm. So far, I have met so many people, and none of them will feel that she is so close, let alone feel her feelings and care about her experience.

However, this woman, who was soon to be so fat that she couldn't see her teeth, did it.

Hong Ling swept Yuan Qinqin's round form, and regretted in her heart: Alas, the only person she can talk to, how can she be like this.

Her brain was still thinking about whether to say anything about herself, and the voice was already speaking.

"There is such a person, very cunning and insidious, every time, every time, he can't be killed and can't be killed, and he is quite respected and trusted by people on the surface. You can never fight him, you can only watch him kill the people you care about the most. ”

Yuan Qinqin thought for a while and nodded: "That's really depressing." ”

Hong Ling knew that she couldn't say anything, it was just that she was depressed in her heart and had an outlet to vent.

However, Yuan Qinqin tilted her fat head and asked seriously: "Is there really such a person bullying you?" ”

Hong Ling didn't speak, but Yuan Qinqin understood her silence.

"Is this the reason why you can't save City Lord Shao?"

"Wait, according to what you said, you can't save City Lord Shao, it should be more than once?"

Yuan Qinqin paused, thought of something, and scared his palms into a layer of cold sweat.

She asked tentatively, "That...... I want to ask, is this city going to come back again? ”

Hong Ling's expression froze on his face instantly, and the next second he immediately eased, put down the bowl, picked up the soup spoon, gently scooped a small bowl of soup, and drank it slowly.

She had never explained to them the strangeness of this city, but Yuan Qinqin had guessed it from her words.

After a while, she said, "Yes, many times, as soon as he dies, the time of this mirage will pass again." The time after the start is in March. ”

What, she was right?

Counting now, it is less than two months until June 16.

Yuan Qinqin put down the food in her hand and felt depressed, it was really a bolt from the blue: why didn't you say it earlier!

It's really frustrating. In this way, the belongings she worked so hard to save will be beaten back to its original shape in only three months, so she still has a P.

Maybe Hong Ling has the patience to watch this mirage come back again and again, because of City Lord Shao, what about her? Now in this situation, what else can you get?

Yuan Qinqin was only entangled in her heart for a long time, and then thought about it: Since what is fake is fake after all, then it would be good for her to go to a place where this plan can really be realized!

She was successfully ignited by her own blood, "Hongling, you said that as long as we help you save the Shao City Lord on June 16, you will tell us how to get out of this mirage, right?" ”

Hong Ling nodded.

Yuan Qinqin stood up suddenly, propped up the table with her energetic hands and said to her: "I suggest that we start fulfilling our agreement in advance, and start planning now!" ”

***********

The pink walls were covered with moss, and the rain soaked the walls upside down, and the courtyard was deserted, and occasionally a few maids walked around, all quietly.

Suddenly, the silence was broken by footsteps and talking.

"Brother Chengyuan, look at it, my new machine man, after I improve it, it can take several steps on its own!"

Shao Yisong's footsteps were fast, and he said loudly as he strode over the stone path.

A small attendant anxiously stopped in front of him: "Lord, my master is still resting, please take a break, wait for the little one to report first, and then ask the lord." ”

Shao Yisong stopped and said impatiently: "You little boy, what does I have to do with your master?" Where are these false gifts needed. After saying that, he blocked him and walked straight inside.

The people inside seemed to hear the movement, and came out to stand by the door, their long black hair untied up, draped behind their backs, and a pair of eyes like spring water filled with a river, with a smile.

Wearing a beige cloak, it can be seen that he has just been quarreled by the sound outside, lazy with a little gentleness.

He gestured to the little boy, and the little attendant bowed respectfully.

The attendant slandered in his heart: The lord of the city and his own master stand together, it seems to have fallen, if he doesn't say it, everyone will think that his master is the lord of the city, right?

It's a pity that such a machine idiot became the lord of the city because he was the successor of the Shaw Clan's organ technique, but a figure like the master of his family was subordinate.

There are certain moments when such thoughts will always spring up in people's minds, for example, when the city lord and the deputy city lord stand together.

Another example is when the city lord is nesting in the workshop for research and development, and the deputy city lord is outside to deal with various livelihood affairs.

Although the city lord has managed this city in an orderly manner, everyone knows how much of this is due to the deputy city lord.
