Chapter 27, Golden Beans
The scene in front of me was really weird, but the expression on the old man's face was really sad, and I couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic when I looked at it.
The old man finally noticed me, staring at me with a pair of cloudy eyes, and the old man asked earnestly, "Is the guest staying in the hotel?...... Has the guest officer seen my little nineteen?"
Due to my low spiritual power, I couldn't transform into a human form for a while, so I could only open a cat's mouth and ask, "Little Nineteen is the grandson of the old man?"
"Ah," the old man replied with his mouth half open, "our little nineteen is four years old this year, and there is a red birthmark on the left side of his face, and I also put a long-life lock on him, but my little nineteen died early, and my father is an indisputable thing, poor ......."
The old man shook his head, "Poor yo ......" looked down again and saw the box in his arms, a nervous smile suddenly cracked on his lips, and he shook his head and chattered, "Golden beans...... It's all golden beans...... It's all mine... Hahaha it's all my ......"
After that, he lowered his head again, and counted one after another......
I was stunned, but I felt light, as if someone had scooped me up from behind.
When I turned my head, I found that it was Xuancheng, although it was the middle of the night when I was asleep, the fairy brother he was still a neat picture that did not eat the fireworks in the world, and he couldn't even see a pleat on the gorgeous cyan long coat, but the expression on his face was very impatient, "You don't sleep in the middle of the night, turn into a cat and go out to wander around?"
I opened my mouth, and it was hard to explain, but the old man over there counted the nineteenth golden bean and began to cry......
I was about to open my mouth to talk about the weirdness, but I was carried by Xuan Cheng with one hand to the guest room on the second floor, I writhed around and tried to break free, "Your Highness, that old man lost his little grandson, it's so pitiful...... I was asking him about Majiazhuang, and he was finally able to say a few words, why didn't you let me ask?"
Xuancheng Sara lowered the corners of his eyes and said coldly, "Zi Chou's time coincides with the rise of demonic energy, and you and I are limited in spiritual power, so I'm afraid it's not appropriate to act at this time......
I felt surprised, but I didn't dare to refute blatantly, I lowered my head and thought for a while and just muttered alone, "But Your Highness, your spiritual power has recovered thirty percent, and ordinary monsters don't dare to get close at all, although this Majiazhuang is a little weird, but I don't see a few people who can fight...... Why does Your Highness always look worried...?"
Xuan Cheng pretended not to hear, but his expression darkened significantly, and I was looking up at my face, but I was thrown on the wooden bed lightly. Because it was a cat that landed on the ground and had a good balance, it didn't fall.
"Don't speculate, it won't do you any good. Rest. The man only said this, then he put on his coat and sat upright on the edge of the bed to meditate and cultivate......
I looked up and watched his spiritual power slowly overflow from his fingertips and surround his body, the light blue light gradually soaked the dark room, lowered his head and stepped on the damp futon, hooked up a few strands of old silk thread, and whispered, "It's time to rest...... But Your Highness, this is your room..."
The man closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Didn't you just fear death yourself?"
Huh? Did he really hear it? Didn't he sleep......
Wouldn't it be the same for the few unpleasant words I said in a fit of anger......
I shook my ears, jumped on the man's lap, and put on a flattering tone, "Your Highness... I'm just scared of what I said~ Don't take it seriously, Your Highness, you are upright and gentle, no matter how you look at it, you don't look like a scumbag..."
The man opened his eyes lazily, and the corners of his mouth curled very harshly, "You don't look like a big eye-catching insect no matter how you look at it." ”
???
Is he mocking me for my low spiritual power?
Although I was not convinced, I didn't show it on my face, and I still looked well-behaved, "Your Highness, since you have more spiritual power, give me some~ not a lot! At least let me take off this cat skin and transform back into a human form~"
"Nothing, don't give. "The man responded decisively to my request.
"Your Highness, why are you so stingy!?"
"It's not easy to accumulate spiritual power, you always use spiritual power to do such boring things, how much should you learn a lesson. Xuan Cheng lowered his head, his slender fingers scratched next to my cat's ears, and the corners of his mouth turned up, "Besides, you look very good." ”
I was going to say you, you can try it yourself, walking on four legs, dragging a strange tail behind you, and spitting hairballs, but it turned out to be, "Ouch, meow, meow, meow, your highness, a little left, a little left, ......"
Scratch your ears and be comfortable!
In the end, I lost my dignity as a female demon of the Six Realms, and under the superb skills of men, I wanted to die, rolled and rolled, and soon fell asleep.
When I woke up in the morning, I had changed back into my human form, curled up in a small corner of the plank bed, still clutching the dragon hosta tightly in my hand.
I sat up and looked around blankly, unable to see His Highness.
Hearing that there was movement downstairs, I stretched a few laziness before walking downstairs unhurriedly, just as the white-hat old man had a towel on his shoulder, put the teacup on the table, poured hot tea cup by cup, looked up and saw me when the movement of his hand stopped, and said with a kind smile, "Girl, morning, do you want a cup of hot tea?"
"Uncle is early, I won't drink the tea first," I scratched my head, a little uncomfortable with this old man's state of being clear for a while and confused for a while, "Have you seen my son-in-law?"
"Hey, that handsome offspring," the old man said with a smile, "I'm afraid I went to the tea house to find Master Wan." He turned around again and beckoned to the empty kitchen, "Old woman, why are you so abrasive, Ma Li steamed osmanthus cake, how can there be more guests in the morning to serve oil tea, and Xiao Nineteen has been clamoring to eat it for several days......
Tea House?
What the hell and what the hell is this?
I walked up to the white-hatted old man and tried to ask questions about the location of the tea house and where Master Wan was sacred, but the old man was busy gesturing at his imaginary "guest" and didn't pay any attention to me.
I went out full of doubts, and the morning sun lazily illuminated the entire Majiazhuang, and for a while, this ghost place was not as bleak and weird as yesterday.
I swirled the hairpin around my fingers and walked out the door leisurely, intending to find Xuancheng myself.
All the way to the strange stage yesterday, there was no half a figure.
I simply jumped up, clasped my hands in the shape of a trumpet, and shouted around, "Your High!!!ness!"
The empty street echoed with only my voice.
"Strange," I muttered as I put my hand down and whispered, "where are the people?"
At this moment, a gust of evil wind mixed with fallen leaves and dust suddenly passed by, and I instinctively raised my arm to cover my eyes, but there was a sharp and piercing laugh behind me......
I shuddered, and turned around slowly......
I saw that the red cloth in the background of the stage was blown into it by the wind, revealing a huge smiling face!
