CHAPTER XXVIII
In the dead of night, the moon is white and the wind is clear. I turned into a fox and slipped out of Liuxianju silently.
My cultivation is not enough, if I really want to fight with Lord Aoi or the head of the Black Mountain family, then I can only sit and wait for death.
So, I've got to strike first!
Cotton Tree was already asleep by this time - whether she was real or pretended, anyway, she wouldn't expose me.
Bai Huang nestled on the stove - at dinner, he and Wuhua drank a few glasses of honey wine that I had added, and I was afraid that we would not wake up until noon tomorrow.
I followed the road I had inquired about during the day and rushed towards Yecheng.
An hour later, I stood on the deserted long street, looked at the blue brick gatehouse with flying eaves and arches in front of me, and smiled proudly - Tu Mansion, this is it!
It seems that this rabbit demon is really good! I've come all the way, and there are such high-ranking mansions like this, but I haven't seen a few!
It's just that the courtyard wall doesn't look normal!
I picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the wall with all my strength, only to see that the stone had disappeared silently as it approached the wall.
I see!
I walked slowly to the root of the wall, took out a sun-covering seed from my pocket and threw it on the ground, and saw two tender leaf buds silently burrowing out of the ground, and then seeing the wind grow, in an instant, a graceful green tree stood outside the wall, and the two large leaves of the millstone were held high, far beyond the wall.
Hmph, how can it be difficult to get me?
I sharpened my claws with high spirits, grabbed the trunk of the tree and climbed up until I reached the tip, and then I shrank slightly and threw myself into the wall.
The moment I crossed the wall, I noticed a cold light flashing in the flowers and plants inside the wall.
Traps!
I panicked.
I was thrashing, but in mid-air, I didn't even have a place to scratch. Seeing a row of cold and glistening clips rushing towards me, I closed my eyes in despair, and then I felt my body suddenly lighten.
The expected pain did not appear, I stayed for a moment, and then quietly opened one eye, and what caught my eye was Langya's inky sword eyebrows and a pair of smiling eyes.
I froze for a moment, then my eyes widened.
"You...... Why are you here? I stumbled as I asked.
"It's late, it's cool, come out for a walk." Langya chuckled and said, "Who would have thought that he would encounter a thief who climbed the wall!" โ
"You're the thief! Your whole family ......"
Looking at Langya's cold eyes, I shut up in a daze.
"I'm really idle!" After Langya finished coldly, he raised his hand and threw me to the ground.
I rubbed my sore butt and stood up, only to realize that I had just been held in my arms by this guy!
It turned out that this guy saved me!
No wonder this guy was angry, just saved me, and was scolded by me for a while......
I cautiously looked at Langya's face, and lowered my voice: "That, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have scolded you......"
Langya stared at me lightly and didn't say a word.
My heart fluttered, so I lowered my head and pretended to study the trap on the ground.
Tsk, this Montenegrin family master is really willing to spend his blood, this row of clips seems to be made of stainless steel!
It's a shame I didn't step on it, otherwise, I would have to be lame!
Hmm, I'm so lucky, I'm sorry to meet Langya!
I thought to myself.
"Are you going to great lengths to climb over people's courtyard walls just to see these traps?" On the side, Langya's cool voice came.
Oh, and there's business to do!
I hurriedly patted my paw and stood up, and said to Langya, "Can you do me a favor?" โ
As soon as the words came out, I suddenly felt that something was wrong.
It seems that I promised the red cotton, saying that I would not implicate her Langya son!
But it's not been a day yet, and I want to assign someone else's son to do errands for me!
It's not good to go back on your word like this!
I sighed, waved my hand at Langya, and said, "Forget it, you're busy with yours." โ
Seeing the big demon in front of me squinting his eyes in displeasure, I hurriedly explained: "It's really condescending to ask you to make a move on a little thing, I'll do it myself!" You see the moonlight is so good tonight, I won't delay you from wandering, see you later! โ
After saying that, I ran to the inner courtyard in a puff of smoke.
Hearing that no one was coming, I hid behind the flowers and secretly glanced back, and saw that the wall was empty, and it was already uninhabited.
Gone?
My heart suddenly felt empty.
Probably, it was because I relied on Langya before, and it was too easy to rely on!
It's not a good habit to want to rely on others for everything!
There is a way to rely on the mountains and mountains, and rely on water to dry!
Or is it more reliable to rely on yourself!
I sighed as I went to the inner house.
Cotton Tree said, the head of the Montenegrin family is timid and cautious, and there will be people constantly patrolling this house at night, why haven't I seen anyone at this time?
I muttered to myself as I pushed open the door to the kitchen, then reached for the edge of the urn and poured the contents of my purse one by one. When he was done, he reached out and stirred, and then carefully closed the lid of the urn.
Coming out of the kitchen, I followed the detailed drawings drawn for me by Kapok and touched the ice cellar in the back garden.
Rich people, right? You still have to eat ice in the middle of summer, right?
Hehe, I can't kill you!
After finishing my work, I went home satisfied.
When I got to the base of the wall, I was worried again.
This timid rabbit spirit actually planted a demon chasing charm in the house.
It wasn't a powerful spell, but it kept me helpless - for as soon as I used the spell, it would activate, and then it would follow me like a maggot attached to the bone, and the owner of the spell would easily pull me out.
Of course, like those profound demons, this kind of trick can be completely ignored.
But Ben Fox I can't do it!
I looked at the sun on the other side of the wall and scratched my head irritably.
The wall was too high for me to jump on.
I don't know how Kapok got in and out of here, and I didn't hear her talk about the charmโshe didn't mean it, did she?
"Liar!"
I muttered in frustration when I heard a very soft sneer behind me.
I was startled, and when I turned around, I saw Langya sitting on the shadow wall not far away, smiling gloatingly.
"The Tao is not deep, and the courage is not small!"
Langya teased and fell to the ground and walked over slowly.
I immediately felt my face burn.
You've lived for tens of thousands of years, okay? If I could live this long, I would be even better than you!
I secretly whispered, and then I saw Langya walk up to me and slowly stretched out his hand.
"What?" I was stunned.
"Take you out." Langya said lightly.
Yes?
"Oh!"
I stupidly handed my hand over and watched his long, gentle fingers grip mine.
Well, this guy is handy...... It's so white!
