Chapter 428: Quiet Time (I)

The secluded Spirit Lake, dappled in the cold moonlight. In the wooden building by the lake, the warm candlelight shines through the window, driving away the cold of the night.

"There is only one attic on the third floor, but the space is not small and quiet, and it is more convenient for you to live as a girl." Si Li took Mu Shi to the third floor of the wooden building, pushed open the half-hidden wooden door while introducing, and made a gesture of invitation to Mu Shi.

"It's just a place to rest, anything." Mu Shi smiled faintly, and walked past Si Li at the door into the attic, although there was no light, but because it was on the highest floor, the moonlight projected in alone illuminated the attic very clearly.

Indeed, as Si Li said, although it is an attic on the top floor, the space is not small, and it is not as low as an ordinary attic, no different from a normal room, and even a little too wide, which is comparable to the hall.

After glancing around, Mu Shi was surprised to find that this attic was very clean, with simple furniture such as beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs, benches, etc.

As if feeling Mu Shi's emotions, Si Li walked in and summoned a few flames with a little elemental power and threw them into the special stone lamp, this kind of stone can continue to burn for a long time as soon as it touches the flames, which can be regarded as the changing candle flame of the Sui An Continent. He picked up a stone lamp and walked to the table beside Mu Shi, his face as warm as jade softened under the warm yellow lamplight.

"Although at the beginning, when I learned that the dean was going to add another person temporarily, I was a little resistant." Si Li's gentle voice was like Mu Chunfeng, and he looked up at Mu Shi softly, "However, if you think about it carefully, the dean's decision must have his intentions, and we are powerless to change it." So I still prepared a room for the new partner. ”

Mu Shi was moved by this man's gentle heart, and was a little embarrassed for a while, and coughed lightly, "You are still so considerate." ”

"It turns out that I did the right thing." Si Li, turned around and walked out of the attic, "It's not early, let's have a good rest." Life in the inner courtyard is not easy. ”

"Thank you." Looking at Si Li's thin back, Mu Shi blurted out for some reason. If it weren't for Si Li, she wouldn't have passed the trial so easily.

Si Li, who was already walking at the door, paused, did not look back, let out a voice that seemed to laugh and sigh, and said softly, "Rest early." ”

"Cluck-" The door closed, Mu Shi took a light breath, rubbed his face and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, remembering what had happened in the past few days, feeling as if he was in a dream.

Obviously, he came to treat Beiye's injuries, but he accepted the trial of Ochre Academy in a daze, and it was too much of a coincidence that the few friends he had made were all here.

"Well, if it's someone with a heart, I can't do anything." Mu Shi patted his face and fell into the soft bed at once, and the high-intensity fighting for several days made Mu Shi's eyelids fight as soon as he relaxed.

"Let's go see how the North Night is going in the morning......." Mu Shi thought in a daze, and his consciousness gradually blurred and dissipated.

However, in his sleep, Mu Shi is not calm. She rarely dreamed of the scene of her previous life, which was exactly what she looked like before she died. Mu Shi knew that this was a dream and knew what would happen next, but he felt surprisingly angry and powerless, until death came again, and the earth-shattering explosion swept over him again.

Maybe it was a dream, and I didn't feel much pain when I was in the mu. She could clearly see her proud body torn apart, reduced to ashes in the violent blast of energy.

At the same time, I also saw that an illusory shadow rose from the broken body, which should be my soul. Mu Shi guessed, and suddenly realized that this might not be an ordinary dream.

The mutilated severed hand fell to the ground, and a silver light and shadow were drawn from the palm of his hand, which happened to smash on Mu Shi's soul.

Mu Shi tried to manipulate the soul in his dream to catch the silver dot, but was interrupted by a sudden strong suction, followed by earth-shattering spinning and chaos, making Mu Shi nauseous and dizzy.

The last thing I saw was the true appearance of the culprit.

A ring that glows with a dazzling silver glow.

It's it again! ......

This was Mu Shi's last thought.

Then, Mu Shi woke up.

Mu Shi woke up very suddenly, his consciousness was still hovering in that real dream, and he stared at the ceiling of the attic with a pair of distracted eyes for a long time before his heart gradually drifted back.

"Hmm....." Mu Shi came back to his senses, only to find that he was in a sticky cold sweat behind his back. This uncomfortable feeling made Mu Shi completely awake, slowly lifted the quilt and walked barefoot out of bed, pushed open the attic window to look at the time, and found that it was already early morning.

The scenery outside is beautiful, and the white mist on the Linghu Lake sets off this place like a fairyland.

I can't believe it's the depths of the Death Mountains.

Mu Shi blinked, touched his chin with one hand, and muttered in a low voice, "At this time, no one should wake up." His eyes flashed with spiritual light, and Mu Shi stepped on the windowsill barefoot, fell lightly, and flew silently towards the spiritual lake.

Flying to the edge of the Spirit Lake, Mu Shi stretched out a foot and stepped into the lake, feeling the warm lake water gently flowing through his skin, his face showed a hint of joy, "Sure enough, it is as I thought." ”

Mu Shi looked left and right, the world before sunrise was indeed quiet, and everything was still sleeping. The corners of Mu Shi's mouth hooked slightly, and he reached out to untie his dress and muttered in a low voice, "Just wash it, there shouldn't be someone so coincidental." ”

Although the spell cleaning is convenient, but after all, there is no such comfort as real water, and Mu Shi saw this spiritual lake that was warm in winter and cool in summer, and he really couldn't help it.

It's been a long time since I've had a good shower!

Mu Shi threw his clothes on the shore, leaving only his small clothes into the lake, and excitedly dived in to swim well.

In his previous life, Mu Shi loved extreme sports, such as horseback riding, rock climbing, snorkeling, etc. Reborn in this magical world, not to mention the diving ability, as soon as he exerted the power of the water element, Mu Shi directly experienced the feeling of being a mermaid.

Mu Shi happily played in the lake for a long time, until a ray of sunlight projected in, and he woke up that he seemed to have swam for too long, in case any of those people liked to get up early and bump into it, it would be embarrassing.

The more Mu Shi thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and hurriedly swam towards the lake. When approaching the lake, Mu Shi first swept hastily with his spiritual power to make sure that no one was nearby, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and surfaced.

"Whoa-" resurfaced to breathe fresh air, Mu Shi suddenly felt a little like a world from another world, and couldn't help but secretly say that although the world of water is beautiful, it is not suitable for human survival after all.

The sun has come out, and the fog on the lake has begun to dissipate, Mu Shi saw this scene and said secretly that he should quickly put on his clothes and go back, and turned around and swam in the direction where he threw his clothes.

As soon as he turned around and swam a few times, a pair of slender legs came into view.

"Huh?" Mu Shi's body stiffened suddenly, and he shook off the water droplets in the blink of an eye, Mu Shi raised his head a little mechanically, and a pair of cold eyes with astonishment appeared in front of him.

Mu Shi was silent, and roared in his heart, why didn't he find the existence of this person at all just now! And it's so good to die, it turns out to be Gu Nansui with the coldest personality!

Gu Nansui seemed to be frightened, standing stiffly on the surface of the lake motionless, his ears red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The strange silence lasted for a long time, so long that Mu Shi felt that if she continued like this, other people would have to come out, and she had to do something.

Mu Shi himself was born as a mercenary, so he didn't care so much about this, and he was wearing a small coat, for Mu Shi from the 21st century, this was just a swimsuit. So Mu Shi decided to break the silence, raised an arm and waved his hand, barely pulling the corners of his mouth, "Hmm...... Morning. ”

"Early ......," Gu Nan subconsciously continued.

"Hmm...... I didn't expect you to have a habit of waking up early. Mu Shi saw him answer, breathed a sigh of relief, sank his body into the water and only exposed one head, and blinked, "I deliberately got up early to take a shower while you were all resting, and I was greedy for a long time." ”

"Oh..... It turned out to be like this...... "Gu Nansui seemed to be in a trance, and numbly responded to Mu Shi's words. After finishing speaking, he seemed to have finally reacted, and his handsome face quickly turned red, and even his white neck turned pink.

"You..... What a system! Gu Nan squeezed out a few words with difficulty, turned around suddenly, and didn't forget to teach Mu Shi a lesson, "Don't do this next time!" To take a bath..... Anyway, you have to set up an enchantment! ”

"I forgot, next time I'll remember." Mu Shi saw that Gu Nan's reflex arc was so long, so he couldn't help but smile and replied sincerely.

"I'll go back to the house first! Hurry up and get dressed! I'll stop the others! Gu Nan quickly dropped a sentence and ran away without looking back, more precisely, escaping.

Mu Shi burst out laughing, spit out several bubbles, and muttered in his heart while swimming to the lake, "It turns out that people who are indifferent on the outside are really sullen." This Gu Nan's shy appearance is really funny. ”

Walking ashore, Mu Shi quickly transferred the fire element to evaporate himself and dry the water, took out a long skirt from the storage spirit ring and put it on, picked up the clothes thrown on the grass and hugged them in his arms and walked towards the wooden building.

And in the wooden building, Su Junlai, who walked down from the second floor with a yawn, suddenly widened his eyes, pointed at Gu Nansui who was sitting in the hall like a ghost, and stammered in surprise, "Wow...... Boss Gu, you, you, you...... Haven't you even gone to Spirit Lake to cultivate Ice Strength today! ”

Gu Nansui raised his head, the red on his face had not faded, he glared at Su Junlai coldly, and said lightly, "I have slept." ”

"Hey, hey! You're going to oversleep?! Su Junlai was even more surprised, and quickly ran to Gu Nansui, raised his hand and touched Gu Nansui's forehead, and said worriedly, "Boss, you won't get sick!" Your face is so hot! ”

"Long-winded." Gu Nan slapped Su Junlai's grasp, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, finally suppressed the heat on his face, and said calmly, "You also sit here for me, and you are not allowed to go out." ”

"Huh? Why?! Su Junlai was confused.
