In a private room on the second floor of Yanmen Tower, Pu Zixuan was sitting side by side with He Xichen, Pu Zixuan looked at the recipe in his hand with a blank face.

Before, they had sent away all the onlookers, ended the activity of throwing hydrangeas to recruit relatives, and according to He Xichen's arrangement, the two were about to have lunch together at this time. The shopkeeper stood aside respectfully, waiting for the two to give orders.

Pu Zixuan couldn't make up his mind for a long time, and asked, "Little Er, why is this recipe full of dog meat?" Braised dog meat, spicy dog meat, fennel dog meat...... Isn't there anything else to do? ”

The shopkeeper smiled and responded: "Hehe, the guest officer is from another province at first glance, right?" This dog meat, but we have a great tradition in Guangxi, our restaurant, is specialized in dog meat delicacies, here, do not taste dog meat, but how embarrassed to say that you have been to Guangxi? ”

If it was in the past, when Pu Zixuan Xianyun Yehe focused on pleasure, not to mention the dog's head, even cat meat and dragon meat were willing to try it, but since he got acquainted with Chen Shuqing, as soon as he saw the dog's long mouth, he wanted to associate it with the fox, and suddenly felt disgusted and asked, "Is there pork?" ”

"Yes, yes, in the back, you flip over."

After choosing for a while, Pu Zixuan said: "Stew a pig's trotters, fry a sausage, and two bowls of glutinous rice." After speaking, he handed the recipe to He Xichen and said, "Come, you can choose one or two more dishes." ”

He Xichen took the recipe, smiled, closed it and handed it back to the shopkeeper: "I don't like to eat these, let me fry a plate of grasshoppers." ”

Pu Zixuan exclaimed: "No, why are you eating so strangely?" ”

The shopkeeper was also embarrassed: "Girl, we don't have this dish in Yanmen Building." ”

He Xichen frowned and said, "What? Didn't you explain it? Ten days ago, I told the store that I chose Yanmen Tower to recruit relatives, on the condition that I prepare enough grasshoppers in advance, and he agreed to me. ”

The shopkeeper rolled his eyes and said: "I remember, it seems that there is such a thing, hehe, I'll go and prepare, you two wait." ”

When the second little one left, Pu Zixuan sighed: "I can't see it, you are a young girl, and you will pursue novelty more than me, I look at those insects disgustingly, I really admire and admire." ”

He Xichen said proudly: "Don't talk about grasshoppers, I eat all kinds of insects, dragonflies, beetles, and longhorn beetles...... Alas, don't say it, my saliva is about to come out...... Does my brother know why? ”

"I'd love to know."

He Xichen leaned closer, leaned his mouth on Pu Zixuan's ear, and said word by word: "Because I, no, yes, people, kinds!" ”

Pu Zixuan's heart trembled, and he instinctively moved his body back a foot: "Huh? Could it be that you're a monster? ”

He Xichen said with a smile: "Since you have chosen my brother, I have to treat each other with sincerity, I don't want to hide anything from you." I'm a youkai, to be precise, I'm a half-demon in human form, so you can't see it! But don't tell me about it! ”

Pu Zixuan suddenly understood: "So, that hydrangea was deliberately thrown to me by you at that time." ”

He Xichen nodded and said, "Yes, although my demon power is weak, I still have this bit of kung fu." I just like you, brother, so I'm waiting for you to come, and then push the hydrangea to you with demonic power, hehe. ”

Pu Zixuan wondered again: "But, before I met you, you had already posted an announcement on the streets of Guiping, and you wanted to engage in this recruitment, if I didn't happen to know you, and decided to come to Yanmen Tower to return your clothes, wouldn't you have to talk to others?" ”

He Xichen smiled: "So this is called: fate." Brother, you are my chosen one! ”

Pu Zixuan disagreed, and asked again: "You just met me, why do you think so?" ”

He Xichen said leisurely: "Do you know, in the past few years, I have often had a dream, dreaming of the heavenly Guanyin Bodhisattva, and said to me, Chen'er, your Ruyi Langjun, not here, you have to keep walking, keep walking, go to the far south, your Ruyi Langjun will wait for you in the south." I am a native of Guilin, I grew so big, I have never left Guilin, this time I finally followed my father's instructions, came to Guiping to deal with some errands, I thought, I have grown so big, it is time to marry myself, this time it must be God to give me the opportunity, let me come to the south to meet my Ruyi Langjun, so I ignored my father's opposition, alone in Guiping to do this hydrangea recruitment. I figured that whoever caught the hydrangea must be the one I was looking for. Unexpectedly, after a few days, brother, you appeared in time, and helped me with clothes, and the road was uneven to save me, I thought, it must be Guanyin Bodhisattva who sent you to my side, so I deliberately dropped the clothes, thinking, if you come, I must throw the hydrangea to you, if you don't come, it means that you are not my chosen person, no matter who catches the hydrangea, I also admit it. ”

Pu Zixuan saw that He Xichen said so many "certainly", his face did not change, sonorous and powerful, thinking that this was really a simple and straightforward girl, so he asked: "You are a monster, so how long have you lived?" ”

"I'm fifteen years old, and I look fifteen, but once we youkai become adults, their appearance won't change much, and they won't look old in another one or two hundred years. So, if my brother is with me, I will always have a young girl by my side, how nice! He Xichen blinked his eyes and said, "Brother, I just like you, you just stay with me, okay?" ”

Pu Zixuan thought to himself, "I won't look old in one or two hundred years", this is also completely suitable for Chen Shuqing, and thinking about how Chen Shuqing is feeling now, his heart is becoming more and more unstable, and he doesn't want to deceive He Xichen, so he responded: "Since I have said this, I don't want to hide it from you." Do you know, the Chen Shuqing who walked with me is also a half-demon, she saw my sweet appearance on stage just now, and she was so angry that she turned around and left. Alas, I'm now agonizing over how to explain to her. ”

As he was talking, the shopkeeper came over with the food and carefully put it on: "Stewed pig's trotters, fried sausages, two bowls of glutinous rice, and a plate of fried grasshoppers." The dishes are all together, and the two guest officers use it slowly! ”

He Xichen didn't react much when he heard that Chen Shuqing was a monster, he just picked up a few grasshoppers with his fingers and stuffed them into his mouth, making a crisp chewing sound, and asked softly: "So, is she the person my brother likes?" ”

Pu Zixuan was silent for a long time and nodded.

"So, does she like you too?"

Pu Zixuan was silent for a moment and responded, "Maybe." ”

He Xichen said: "No wonder my brother knows that I am a monster, and he is not afraid at all." But how strange are you people? obviously likes each other, but they want to pretend that they don't care. You like her, and she likes you, so wouldn't it be nice to just say it out loud? ”

Pu Zixuan seemed to be said to have hit the weakness, and said hesitantly: "We are walking together, in fact, we have a common goal, which is to collect all the "Mixed Moon Recipes"...... Well, that is, Yanagizumi Yagi, so that she can be completely purified as a human. Until then, I was really uneasy about our future, and how dare I let go of love......"

He Xichen was stunned: "From a monster to a human?" It turns out that Willow Spring Yagi, does it still have such a role? ”

It seems that the girl in front of her also knows the existence of the fragments of the "Mixed Moon Formula", Pu Zixuan nodded and said: "Of course you can, this is a relic of the powerful ancient purification messenger, as long as you collect it and use it on the night of the full moon, you can completely purify the monster into a human being." ”

He Xichen suddenly burst into flames: "It's amazing!" I want to be human too, and when you have all of them, will you become human too? Otherwise, I'll go with you and collect the willow spring Yagi together...... I don't have a lot of mana, but I might be able to help a little. ”

Pu Zixuan thought to himself, this girl's life experience and wishes were so similar to Chen Shuqing, and he didn't feel a slight wave in his heart, but he also thought that if the three of them were really together, then they wouldn't be at peace along the way, so he politely refused: "If it's just to purify you into a human being, of course I'm willing to serve, and you can go with us...... You two...... Ha ha...... Forget it. ”

He Xichen pouted and said: "Your world is really complicated, what is like me, whoever you like, just say it out loud, and you have to be with him......" Suddenly, I thought of something again, and said: "Otherwise, I heard that men like beautiful women, but I don't know what beauty is, since my brother likes that Chen Shuqing, I just have a little bit of the ability to change the system, I become like her, I stay by your side every day, you see me, it's like seeing her, okay?" You see......"

After speaking, He Xichen's body glowed with a slight red, and after a while, his face had changed to Chen Shuqing's appearance, and his hair had also turned flaxen.

Pu Zixuan was even more embarrassed for a moment, and for a while he was even more confused by the two, and instinctively leaned back and said, "In addition to the big difference in personality, you two are really alike!" Even the abilities are so similar! But I can't take you for her, it's too hard. ”

He Xichen saw that this trick didn't work, so he returned to his original appearance, and his voice became higher: "I don't understand, I really don't understand, I like someone, is it so difficult?" Do you have to be so tired? Why do I like you so much and you just don't give me a chance? I love you, I love you, I just love you! Isn't it possible? ”

For some reason, Pu Zixuan not only didn't feel disgusted by He Xichen's willfulness, but became more and more confused, and whispered the question mark in his heart: "So, what is love?" ”

He Xichen took advantage of the situation and asked: "That's right, since you don't know what love is, why are you sure that you love her?" ”

Pu Zixuan asked rhetorically: "I don't understand, but you are only fourteen years old, do you understand?" ”

"I'm fifteen years old!" He Xichen said firmly, "However, I think it's very simple, just like you think bacon is fragrant, so you ordered bacon; I felt grasshopper fragrant, so I ordered grasshopper; I like mountains, so I climb them hard; I like the lawn, so I lie quietly; I like a person, I love someone, I don't care about everything, I just want to be by his side, share his happiness, and share his sorrows! Love is that simple, isn't it? ”

said a word, Pu Zixuan was speechless. Yes, in the past, so many girls just liked my wealth, instead of being willing to share happiness and sorrow with me? How many girls befriended me with beautiful dreams, but were ruthlessly ruined by me? How many girls are crying and trying to break their liver and intestines at night when I can't see them?

I was wrong! I can't let another woman be trampled by me again! Although there are still many mysteries on He Xichen that have not been solved, the deeper he understands, the more confused he will become, so it is still the old saying - long pain is better than short pain!

Thinking of this, Pu Zixuan put down the dishes and chopsticks, bowed deeply to He Xichen and said, "I just can't forget Shuqing, Miss He, forget me, I'm sorry." ”

After speaking, His Excellency Pu Zixuan took a string of copper coins and walked out of Yanmen Tower without looking back.

Behind him, He Xichen's unwilling voice came: "You...... Unless you leave Guangxi! Otherwise, we'll see each other again! ”

After a while, He Xichen sat alone in the box, picked up the red shirt, put it to his nose and sniffed it, and in an instant, two lines of tears burst out of his eyes.
