Chapter 35: He's My Pet
Xia Linghe waved his hand again and again, playing haha, "There is nothing special, you don't have to ask so much, in a word, as long as he doesn't cause trouble, he doesn't dare to do anything to me, at most follow me like a rubber candy." ”
Wan Zibing's eyes flashed, and she pinched a crystal clear bead in her fingertips, "If you don't want to say it, I won't force you." ”
Wan Zibing looked harmless to humans and animals, but Xia Linghe couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
The bead in Wan Zibing's hand was the weapon formed by her own internal force, the Feather Spirit Bead.
Isn't this a clear threat?
Xia Linghe suddenly felt a tightness in his chest.
"Sister Zibing, if you have something to say, don't keep showing off your guys, it looks weird and scary."
The smile on Wan Zibing's lips did not decrease, but he took the beads into his arms, "Linghe, I'm not interested in your privacy, I'm here to check the origin of Yupei, since you can't help much, we won't stay here, we should be able to leave soon." ”
When Xia Linghe heard that Wan Zibing was leaving, he couldn't help but be a little anxious, "Sister Zibing, don't, you stay a few more days, how... How can I wait until I put ... Yuwen Gongzi sent it away, and it was not too late. ”
Xia Linghe's tone gradually became softer, as long as Yu Wenhui was mentioned, she seemed to have completely changed as if she had changed from a shrewd and capable big woman to a well-behaved and cute little Lori.
Wan Zibing's beautiful eyes turned, and she began to lure Xia Linghe step by step, "Xiaohe, I understand your thoughts, there are several groups of people gathered here, and you don't want to offend any party, let alone hurt your Yuwen Gongzi, I can understand these careful thoughts of yours, but if you want me to help you, you have to be honest with me, right?" ”
Wan Zibing looked at Xia Linghe's eyes, more like a big bad wolf who saw the little white rabbit, just waiting for the little white rabbit to let down his last vigilance and get into his trap.
Xia Linghe turned his heart sideways and simply confided the truth, in a limited time, it is the most important thing to be able to keep the safety of Yuwen Gongzi.
"He's my pet."
Wan Zibing's figure paused slightly, and his face was puzzled, "What is a pet?" ”
Xia Linghe's fingers pinched the corners of his clothes uncomfortably, and slowly lowered his eyes, covering the emotions in his heart, "This is a secret technique that our Xia clan does not pass on, it is said that every family master can have a pet with a good root and bones, and he can call at will, and the head of the family can decide his life and death." ”
The more Wan Zibing listened, the deeper the chill in his heart became, "But he's alone!" ”
Xia Linghe was a little helpless, "I don't know who set this rule!" In short, everyone will not see this person as a person, he is more like a meat shield, he can only listen to the words of the head of the family, from the moment he is chosen, his life is connected with the head of the family, the head of the family is born, he is born, the head of the family dies, he dies. ”
Wan Zibing clenched the sachet on his waist and seemed to think of something, "If my inference is correct, you should have a way to control them, right?" ”
Xia Linghe rubbed a ring on his index finger, "That's right, so their existence is more like the last line of defense for the head of the family." I don't want it, my loved ones are dead, what's the use of me being such a person? ”
Wan Zibing shook his head, "You can't say that, it's always good to have someone to protect you." ”
Xia Linghe bit his lip, "But the problem is, he doesn't have to be my pet, but he ......"
A trace of puzzlement crossed Wan Zibing's eyes, and the movement of his fingertips stopped, "You mean, the person outside... I don't have to listen to you? ”
Xia Linghe didn't know how to explain, "Anyway, he was voluntary, no one forced him, although he was elected, but at that time, our family was facing annihilation, no one would take him seriously, but he just followed me." ”
"So he can be out of your control?"
Xia Linghe rubbed the ring on his index finger, "If that's the case, I will feel a little less guilty, in fact, he completed the ritual of his own volition." ”
Wan Zibing didn't know what that kind of ritual was, but inferred from the loneliness between Xia Linghe's eyebrows, it was estimated that it would not be a beautiful scene.
"So, you've always hated him and don't want him to follow you?"
Xia Linghe smiled bitterly, "It's not so much that I hate him, it's better to hate my cowardly self, since there is no hope of living, it seems to be a good choice to take someone to accompany him on Huangquan Road." ”
Although the ending was lucky, Xia Linghe and Xia Yu both survived, but the guilt in Xia Linghe's heart always existed.
This is a thorn in her heart, she can't pull it out, she can't digest it, and she always reminds Xia Linghe from time to time that she has had such a despicable side.
Wan Zibing understood that it was a sense of powerlessness that was stifled by fate, she patted Xia Linghe's shoulder, her eyes burning, "Everything will pass, I will help you." ”
Xia Linghe finally breathed a sigh of relief, and thought that Xia Yu was still being looked at by Ouyang Yi's people, "Sister Zibing, Xia Yu's strength is not small, Ouyang Yi, are they okay?" ”
Wan Zibing stood up and slowly walked outside, "We sit here, it won't play any role, it's better to go out and take a look." ”
Xia Linghe followed behind Wan Zibing.
Ouyang Yi was worried, he didn't know what to do with Xia Yu, he saw the two figures walking slowly, and immediately frowned, "You guys are here, this wooden lump will be handed over to you, I'm going to sleep." ”
Ouyang Yi took a step, and was just about to slip away, but Wan Zibing said lightly, "Ouyang Yi, you still have something to ask for, is this your attitude towards Doctor Xia?" ”
Ouyang shook his fan lightly and yawned loudly, "Then what attitude do you want me to have, I'll be tomorrow... I have to go up the mountain to fetch water, and if I don't sleep, I'm afraid it's too late. ”
Wan Zibing caught a glimpse of the tiredness on Ouyang Yi's face, but he couldn't say anything difficult.
She didn't know what was wrong with her, she obviously didn't want to get in touch with Ouyang Yi anymore, but she still wanted to remind him that she should have a better attitude towards Xia Linghe in order to achieve his wish.
Although the tone of the prompt ...... Debatable.
Where Wan Zibing couldn't see, the corners of Ouyang Yi's lips had already raised.
Wan Zibing, you are really a duplicitous woman.
......
Early morning.
Although Ouyang Yi was mentally prepared, he was still worried when he looked at the three huge water tanks.
Several other people also looked at each other.
Three days?
Can you really fill a water tank?
Ouyang Yi rolled up his sleeves, planning to do a big job.
His eyes looked around, and finally saw a long flat pole, lying alone in the corner, and two wooden barrels, he picked up the flat pole, passed through the barrel, and picked it up decently, "How is it, I look quite imposing, right?" ”
Qingdao frowned.
Huai Dao touched the back of his head.
Chu Jian rubbed his chin.
Mengyi's eyebrows condensed in one place.
"Okay, it's not as terrifying as you imagined, don't pestle, listen to me, do whatever you have to do, Qingdao and Huaidao continue to protect Xiaoxue's safety, Mengyi, you go to be responsible for everyone's food, Chu Jian, you are good at light work, and your feet are fast, you go to the town at the bottom of the mountain, buy some fresh vegetables and fruits, and find out about the news of the temple fair by the way."
The work of the four people was clearly arranged.
But four pairs of eyes are still staring at the Eurasian wing in unison.
They seemed to be able to see an incredible end from Ouyang Yi, and no one dared to leave easily.
Ouyang Yi reluctantly threw out the fan, and his fan quickly turned into a fierce attack, forcing them back.
Ouyang Yi slowly put the fan back, picked up the two buckets, turned around and left.
There were only four people left who were chattering and discussing.
"Why don't I worry about the little prince?"
"He's not a reliable person at all."
"Shall we catch up and have a look?"
"I don't think it's good, in order not to let us go, the little prince has used his real skills."
The faces of the four people were wrinkled like bitter melons, and there was no trace of pleasure.
In the end, it was Qingdao who became the backbone, "Let's not think about the little prince, he has decided to do this, there must be a reason for him." Why should we be strong? Doing well what he has given us is what he has done to him. ”
Since the commander has spoken, the rest of the people have no objections, and they are ready to start acting according to the instructions of the little prince.
After they left, a faint shadow floated over, looking into the distance, slowly falling into deep thought, Wan Zibing thought for a long time, but decided to follow quietly.
Although the terrain here is gentle and there are no fierce beasts, Ouyang Yi is a well-respected young master, and he has not done any heavy work, so he may make some jokes. Besides, he's not familiar with the terrain here, so don't make any trouble.
Wan Zibing persuaded herself in her heart, and she performed light skills, searching for Ouyang Yi's traces.
Ouyang Yi was not idle, he kept looking around at the surrounding environment, he really didn't know, how to measure the "halfway up the mountain" in Xia Linghe's mouth?
Also, what kind of clear spring is that, and where is it?
Ouyang Yi walked cautiously on the road, the road was muddy, his originally delicate face gradually became gray, and the light blue boots under his feet were also polluted by the black mud.
When Ouyang Yi felt that there was no hope, he heard the sound of the waterfall and couldn't help but speed up his pace.
The sudden appearance of the scenery shocked him.
A milky white waterfall from top to bottom, smashing into the pool below, the most amazing thing is that the milky white waterfall floated down, turned into a transparent and clear lake, quietly passing through all kinds of pebbles, through several forks, slowly flowing into the distance.
