Knowing that Su Jinyao was unreliable, Chu Ning didn't know where to find another dough cake and poked it on a tree branch, hoping to slow down the fall. But the dough was torn and shattered in a blink of an eye, and it didn't have much effect at all.
Now that it's really going to be over, Chu Ning began to reflect on himself, shouldn't he accept it when he saw it just now, shouldn't he have to force Su Jinyao to take out all three pieces.
In the chaos in his mind, a cold voice suddenly said, "There is no other way, take off your clothes." Ji Chongguang's Yuan Lu rushed up coldly, turning the mess in Chu Ning's mind upside down.
Chu Ning hurriedly unbuttoned his coat and raised it in the wind. The people of Dongqi have always liked wide robes, which look solemn and exquisite, and Chu Ning's robe unfolded like an open umbrella, and the falling momentum immediately slowed down.
She deliberately picked the place with the most branches and turned diagonally, and the outer robe was just hooked on the branch, Chu Ning and Su Jinyao grabbed the corner of the robe one after the other and stopped, hanging in the air with the branches swinging one by one.
Chu Ning stroked his chest and thought, fortunately, Princess Ankang, who is in charge, is eccentric, her outer robe is sewn from the coarsest inferior fabric, which is strong and resistant to rubbing, and can barely support the weight of two people, if she changed Su Jinyao's silk clothes, I am afraid it would have been torn and torn long ago.
But the phoenix bird, which was covered in fire, did not stop, and was still rushing down. Chu Ning had no choice but to free up one hand and hold the round mirror, trying to resist it with the reflected sunlight for a while.
"It's not enough to die, is it?" Ji Chongguang's cynicism came quite timely, "Those two black balls under the eyebrows, are they overnight bean paste balls?" β
Chu Ning didn't grasp his profound instructions for a while, so she paused, and in the middle of that, the burning phoenix bird had rushed straight in front of her, and the heat wave scorched her so much that she almost ran out of breath. The fire was dazzling, stabbing her eyes sore, the spell was definitely too late, and at the last moment, Chu Ning swept around, and had no choice but to fly up and kick Su Jinyao's chest.
The eldest lady, who has always been delicate, let out an "ouch" sound, and the two of them swinged in opposite directions. The phoenix bird happened to pass between the two of them, and Chu Ning heard it clearly, and there was a chuckle in his mind like Ji Chongguang breaking gold and jade.
There was no time to worry about him at the moment, Chu Ning didn't care about his eyes being stabbed and swollen unbearably, and stared at the phoenix bird for a moment. At this glance, you can see the doorway.
The big bird made of flames had only a head and wings, but no tail or feet. It wasn't a real bird, it was just the remnants of the psychic power of countless birds that had burned fire on this sycamore tree in the past, so it couldn't leave the range of the canopy.
The phoenix's body crumbled as far as it could be like a full bow, and then it pulled it back as if an invisible hand had grabbed its neck.
Chu Ning squinted at the firebird flapping its wings at the top of the tree, knowing that it would soon rush down again, pointed to a prominent branch below, and said to Su Jinyao: "Count to three, you and I will raise this garment together, let's jump down and strive to hang it there first." β
The two of them are now veritable "grasshoppers tied to a rope", like two scales that are just balanced, and they can only find a way to escape together.
Su Jinyao nodded, and above the two of them, the phoenix bird began to flap its wings again.
"One, two......"
Before the word "three" could be spoken, Chu Ning suddenly felt that the strength in his hand was loosened, and the whole person fell uncontrollably. Opposite her, Su Jinyao had already jumped on a slightly lower branch, she let go before the agreed time, and then learned the method used by Chu Ning, wrapped her hands in her clothes, climbed down, and soon disappeared.
Chu Ning gritted his teeth: "Shamelessness is really ancestral." β
Fortunately, the robe was still in her hand, and Chu Ning raised it upwards and hung it on a branch. Thanks to the fact that the tree had been so old that the branches had grown so far and wide that if she had just pruned it, she would have fallen to the ground.
The phoenix flapped its wings and swooped down again, its sharp beak beating from the flames pecking at her chest.
A burning pain suddenly appeared in his chest, and the phoenix bird disappeared like the sharp blade that Su Jinyao had used to conjure before.
The blade had no temperature, but this time, Chu Ning felt with certainty that the phoenix bird had been sucked into the mirror hanging on his chest, as if it was still churning in it.
Escaping death and making sure that last night was not in vain, Chu Ning couldn't tell for a while which one brought more surprises. It turned out to be a small thing that looked like a mirror, able to absorb the attacks of spells.
The leaves of the sycamore wood had been ignited by the fire, and the whole tree was like a huge fireball on top of it at the moment. Chu Ning rolled over and jumped back onto the trunk of the tree, moving carefully down all the way.
The scene when she landed was a bit like a fairy descending to earth, and everyone on the wood field looked up at her. Although Chu Ning is in addition to the outer robe, the short clothes inside are still there, except for the black ash burning everywhere on his face, it can be regarded as a neat return.
In contrast, Su Qianyu is much more miserable, the clothes on her body are burned to pieces, her hair is also burned, and she will definitely not grow for a while, she can only go to participate in the selection with this dog-like bird's nest, it is estimated that this appearance will be very memorable.
When Chu Ning handed her the whip that was burned to a length of only an inch, Su Qianyu's eyes also seemed to be burning with two fires, and she said to Su Yu with a crying voice: "Second uncle, look at her, it's too much. β
Su Jinyao had already returned to Su Yu's side one step ahead, and Su Yu naturally knew that the three things of Old Madam Su were in Chu Ning's hands, and her face was a little pale. But after all, he couldn't pull his face as direct as Princess Ankang, and coughed lightly and said: "Chu Ning's performance today, as an uncle, I am very pleased, I think your mother will be happy if she sees it." Now that you have already taken the things, you don't need so much by yourself, so you should divide them with your sisters, and when it comes to choosing, you will help each other and increase each other's chances of winning. β
Chu Ning remembered what these people had done when they were on the sycamore tree, if they could help each other with themselves when they were choosing, it would be really daylight, and it would be good if they didn't stab themselves at a critical time.
She took out the three cloth bags and checked them with her hands: "Before I went up, the second uncle didn't say that, wouldn't that mean that no one can complain or retaliate afterwards by their own ability, and said that when choosing a choice, no one will let anyone, I'm not mistaken?" β
Su Yu's face was even more gloomy: "Chu Ning, just enough, and your own family is also so calculating, what does it look like?" β
Chu Ning took out the contents of the bag in the same way, put it back in his arms after playing for a while, and suddenly lowered his eyebrows and said to Su Yu: "What the second uncle said is that there are only four sisters here today, but there are three things, and they are unevenly distributed, but it is easy for sisters to fall apart." Otherwise, I will keep these things, and the three sisters will also go up and work hard, each with a bag as a souvenir, come and come, don't be polite. β
She was very enthusiastic and forced the empty bag into the hands of the three of them, Su Qingyue didn't say anything, but Su Qianyu and Su Jinyao directly threw the bag on the ground, and Su Qianyu also crushed her foot a few times.
She turned her head to look at Old Madam Su: "Grandmother, do you think it is appropriate to distribute it like this?" β
Mrs. Su didn't want to worry about the trivial matters of her children and grandchildren, but at this time, when she saw Chu Ning smiling at her coquettishly, a string in her heart was gently plucked, and she couldn't help but think of the daughter who was once very proud. That kid is just too cold, and he refuses to play these little tricks since he was a child.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Su actually showed a little sour smile on her face, but in an instant, she decided to indulge this child once no matter what, and raised her peach cane and pestle Su Yu: "It's very appropriate, it's just a good thing, why do you turn it over and over, eat and vomit, vomit and eat, what you say can't be counted, next time you will bring a donkey to chew and control your mouth." β
Not only Chu Ning, but everyone present was stunned by the old lady's fierce painting style. In fact, since she became the head of the Suyin family and gradually got older, she has already been very dignified, and she looks similar to the old ladies of those poetry and book families. Others often forget her old man's demeanor when she was young, that's really ...... It's hard to say, and there are still rumors in the capital city that say that the previous head of the Suyin family died young because of her abuse.
Su met the bottom and didn't dare to confront his mother in public, so he didn't say a word. He and Princess Ankang were so coaxing that they took out a few suitable things from Mrs. Su's hands, but they cheapened Chu Ning for nothing.
Old Madam Su stood up and took Chu Ning's hand: "You come with me, I'll tell you the beauty of those things." An old man and a young man threw off the people who were holding their stomachs and had nowhere to vent, and Shi Shiran left.
As soon as he entered the courtyard of the old lady, Ah Sheng rushed out, Chu Ning knew that this was the treasure of the old lady, grabbed the soft hair on its belly, and played with it.
Old Madam Su watched from the sidelines, and suddenly sighed leisurely: "You can't do this, you haven't practiced seriously, and you will definitely not succeed when it comes to choosing." β
Chu Ning was just about to say a few nice words, begging the old lady to teach her, but the old lady opened her mouth again: "It's not a few days, it's too late to practice, and I don't know if your head is like your mother, or like your cheap father who killed a thousand knives in a short life, and it may not be good to make it." β
The old lady threw away the crutches and let out a long breath from her nose: "When you go to the Lingque Terrace to choose, you should be careful not to let people shoot you to death, whether you can choose or not, it doesn't matter so much." β
Chu Ning could hear that the old lady was really thinking about herself, but this shocking remark, did she need to say it so bluntly? Is her level that bad?
Especially when it comes to her biological father, who doesn't know where she is, Chu Ning is more and more determined to obtain the convenience of entering the inner palace through selection, and use the past mirror to find out this irresponsible father.
She remembered the "treasure" that she had finally taken from the sycamore wood, and then she remembered to take it out and see what it was, the thing fell into her hand, she couldn't believe it, it was clearly three black stones.
