109 Late at night
At this time, since the purpose of this trip had been achieved, everyone planned to return the same way, Mu Ying took off the phantom needle that was still inserted in the body of the colored spotted beast and withdrew it into his storage bag.
Uncle Zhang originally said that Mu Ying would take back the corpse of the colored spotted beast, but Mu Ying really felt that the thing was a little disgusting, so he shook his head and said that he didn't need it. Uncle Zhang also knew that although this thing was delicious, it was really ugly, and few little girls were willing to approach it. So he smiled and took it back into the storage bag.
They walked all the way for three days, because they didn't need to look carefully for the traces of the Phantom Grass all the way as when they came, so the group of thirteen people only needed to walk the nearest road, so they walked very quickly. As early as the day they first started on the road, Luo Xiaorou used the transmission note to contact her father, that is, the head of the Luo family, and informed him that he had found the Phantom Heart Grass. And not long after sending it, Luo Xiaorou received a message from his father, saying that someone had been sent to Qingsu Mountain to pick them up, and they must be careful all the way.
Even Mu Ying heard the surprise and eagerness in the man's voice in the transmission note, and immediately smiled slightly, feeling a little warm in his heart.
That night, when it was time to rest at night, except for the two guards who stayed for vigil, everyone else meditated and cultivated. Because the monks are not suitable for cultivating too closely, there is a large distance between each person. Mu Ying didn't cultivate, because her defense would be poor when she cultivated, and she was not related to these people after all, so she didn't worry about being defenseless under their noses after all. Therefore, she was just pretending to practice, but in fact she was meditating and concentrating, occasionally releasing her divine sense to see if there was any danger nearby.
But then, she heard someone talking behind her to the right.
"Miss, if the old servant asks something that shouldn't be asked, how do you feel about Young Master Gu?" The voice was very low. If it weren't for the divine sense, if you listened carefully, you might not be able to hear it.
"Uncle Zhang...... You, why are you asking about this, Brother Zhiheng, he is my fiancé. This is Luo Xiaorou's shy voice.
It turned out that Uncle Zhang was asking Luo Xiaorou and Gu Zhiheng about it, thinking that Uncle Zhang felt that it was already late at night, and the others were either cultivating or resting. And their voices were so low that no one would hear them, so they asked.
Mu Ying thought it was quite interesting, so although he knew that it was not polite, he still used his divine sense to look at it. As for why not open your eyes and see...... It's because people are behind her, and she can't see it.
"Alas, Miss, don't you think there is ...... between Miss Xinlan and Young Master Gu" Uncle Zhang's voice was very cautious, and he didn't finish his words. just looked at Luo Xiaorou a little tentatively.
As soon as Uncle Zhang's words fell, Mu Ying clearly saw Luo Xiaorou frowning, and the expression on her face changed from shy to impatient, and said, "Uncle Zhang, I know you have some opinions about Xinlan and Brother Zhiheng, but you can't talk nonsense." ”
Seeing that Luo Xiaorou was already a little unhappy, Uncle Zhang's mouth moved, and he still sighed after all. Didn't speak again.
Seeing Luo Xiaorou's reaction like this, Mu Ying couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
In three days of walking. Although on the surface, Gu Zhiheng is sweet and attentive to Luo Xiaorou, but he can always look at Gao Xin's blue eyebrows when Luo Xiaorou can't notice it.
Luo Xiaorou was in a relationship and couldn't extricate herself, she only had her lover in her eyes, and Gao Xinlan was a friend who had been with her for many years. She always thought that Gao Xinlan and Gu Zhiheng had a better relationship because of their own face, and she didn't expect the two to have a personal relationship at all. So no matter how explicitly Uncle Zhang hinted along the way. Luo Xiaorou couldn't listen to it, she only thought that Uncle Zhang had always disliked those two people, so she just thought about it a lot.
Not to mention that Uncle Zhang was speechless, even Mu Ying, who had only been with them for two days, was speechless.
In the course of three days, perhaps because Mu Ying was young. And because he saved them a few times, Mu Ying is familiar with them a lot, except for Gao Xinlan's awkward heart, everyone else has a good attitude towards Mu Ying. Especially Luo Xiaorou has already shown Mu Ying as her own sister, and she takes good care of her and is very gentle.
And in the three days together, she also has some understanding of everyone's situation.
Gu Zhiheng's Gu family and Luo Xiaorou's Luo family are both big families in Yulan City. Because the Gu family and the Luo family have been friends since ancient times, the parents of the two families gave oral engagement to the two after the birth of their two children. So they can be said to be childhood sweethearts.
However, Gao Xinlan's family background is very different from the Gu family and the Luo family, and there is no way to compare, it is simply a difference between cloud and mud.
The Gao family used to be a medium-sized family, but later, because there were fewer and fewer disciples with good spiritual roots in the family, it gradually declined, and now the Gao family can only be regarded as a small family, and in addition to their parents, there are only a few uncles supporting the façade.
Gao Xinlan and Luo Xiaorou's acquaintance was also occasional, probably four years ago, when the two were only ten years old. Gao Xinlan followed her uncle, and Luo Xiaorou followed Uncle Zhang. The two groups of people met when they were shopping at the store.
According to Luo Xiaorou, she picked a magic weapon at that time, but the shopkeeper told her that the magic weapon had already been ordered. Luo Xiaorou was still very depressed at the time, but who knew that the person who came to take the magic weapon came at this time, and the person saw that she liked it so much, so he generously gave her the magic weapon. And that person is naturally Gao Xinlan.
Luo Xiaorou said that Gao Xinlan not only gave her things, but also smiled at her very gently. Luo Xiaorou felt that the two were the same age, and Gao Xinlan was also very careful and gentle, so she became friends with her unconsciously, and this acquaintance was four years.
When Mu Ying heard this, he was silent.
What an important thing a ritual weapon is to a monk! And Gao Xinlan obviously paid the fixed money, Luo Xiaorou just looked at it and liked it, and she didn't have to buy it. And Luo Xiaorou, Mu Ying, probably knows that she has a weak temperament, although her family is very wealthy, it is impossible for her to do anything to rob other people's things. This shows that Gao Xinlan saw that Luo Xiaorou liked the magic weapon, so she took the initiative to let it out.
Gao Xinlan is a person, just by Mu Ying's discovery that she wants to harm Luo Xiaorou, it can be seen that it is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp. It's okay if she doesn't grab other things, but she's willing to give her things to others? And it's an indispensable artifact. So Mu Ying had a conspiracy theory, thinking that Gao Xinlan must have a pair of "discerning eyes" and found that Luo Xiaorou's family background was good, so she took the opportunity to approach her.
This approach, as Luo Xiaorou's close friend, it is inevitable that she will have an intersection with Luo Xiaorou's fiancé, so she met Gu Zhiheng again.
As a girl in a declining family, and a person who is not satisfied with the ordinary, let her inadvertently know the son of a big family, then she will inevitably move some crooked thoughts.
After figuring out the ins and outs, Mu Ying had to admire Gao Xinlan.
Four years ago, she was just 10 years old. Such a little girl who has not grown up actually knew that she was a young lady when she saw Luo Xiaorou for the first time, and then did not hesitate to send out the magic weapon she had set, so as to be friends with Luo Xiaorou, and let Luo Xiaorou trust her. She and Luo Xiaorou have been together for four years, and based on Gao Xinlan's family background, Mu Ying guessed that she must have received a lot of benefits from Luo Xiaorou.
However, she met Gu Zhiheng, Gu Zhihengkong has a good family background, but his character is not very good. Gao Xinlan obviously didn't like him, but for the sake of his family background, she secretly hooked up with Gu Zhiheng in a place that Luo Xiaorou couldn't notice.
And when Mu Ying saw her for the first time, she suddenly saw the ugly spotted beast in front of her, obviously so scared, but she didn't make any movement, so that the other eleven people present didn't notice what was going on over there. And her first reaction when she saw the spotted beast was not to kill it, nor to call people, but to kill people with a knife, and she and Luo Xiaorou switched positions, wanting the spotted beast to bite Luo Xiaorou to death! And after Mu Ying appeared, she was worried that she would tell her what she wanted to harm Luo Xiaorou, so she deliberately said something unpleasant so that Mu Ying could leave early. If Mu Yingdanfan was a little out of breath, he would definitely cry and run away after hearing what she said. Where will it stay any longer.
Mu Ying lived in this world for six years and in his previous life for more than twenty years. I have seen a lot of people with many eyes, but people like Gao Xinlan are the only ones in my life! And this girl is only fourteen years old this year! She couldn't imagine what Gao Xinlan would become if it was a few years later.
Mu Ying couldn't help but start worrying about the simple-minded Luo Xiaorou, she had a fiancé who was already misbehaving before she got married, and a good sister who was as terrifying as a tiger and wolf. What will the days to come be?
Although worried, after all, the intersection is still shallow, Mu Ying plans to follow them back to the Luo family, see the head of the Luo family, and then decide what will happen in the future.
Just as she was thinking about it, Mu Ying suddenly opened her eyes and stood up violently, and the spirit beast that had been by her side began to spin uneasily.
It was late at night, the mountains and forests were very silent, Mu Ying's movements were very sudden, and everyone was just meditating, so at the same time as she moved, everyone opened their eyes, and Uncle Zhang and Luo Xiaorou were startled, thinking that Mu Ying would be like this if she heard their conversation.
Gao Xinlan was immersed in cultivation, and when she heard movement, she thought that there was some danger around her, so she subconsciously lit up her sword, but when she looked around, she found that there was nothing, only Mu Ying was standing there with a cold face, so she shouted at Mu Yingjiao: "What are you doing, making such a disturbance in the middle of the night!" Let no one practice well! (To be continued......)
