On the second day, several people went to the Fox King's hall to say goodbye.

Hua Rong really didn't worry about the fifth son, so please follow along. Because of his loyalty, the fox king naturally agreed, and did not forget to tell a few people not to be reckless.

The four of them descended the stairs, and the mist drifted during the process, almost obscuring the scene in Qingqiu Mountain.

Mu Chengye felt that there seemed to be an immortal aura around him, and he looked around vigilantly for a while, but did not see any suspicious figures. Looking at Mu Hongjia walking leisurely in front, he couldn't help but doubt in his heart.

He had a cold face and said lightly: "I really don't know, the same fox clan is colluding with the immortals." Fourth brother, do you think this person is vicious or stupid? ”

"I think it's poisonous and stupid." Mu Hongjia answered expressionlessly.

Mu Chengye glanced at him, and then chatted with him again.

Xie Qian specially slowed down his pace and followed behind, hearing that they were always testing each other in their conversations, and couldn't help but feel tired for them. She sighed, and in a blink of an eye, she saw that Hua Rong was looking at her with inquiring eyes.

He is Mu Chengye's bodyguard, and he has been following him since he transformed into a human form. He rarely speaks on weekdays, but he is loyal. Last night, when he saw that the fifth prince was so attentive to this girl, he couldn't help but be a little concerned.

Xie Qian was stared at by him for a while, smiled and turned his head.

Hua Rong said lightly: "Miss Xie has something on her mind?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just a feeling." Xie Qian didn't know how to explain it, so she prevaricated.

Hua Rong wanted to say something, but Mu Chengye, who was walking in front, happened to turn his head. When he saw that the two of them were able to talk so normally, he was inexplicably unwilling.

He deliberately slowed down, walked to the two of them, and pretended to be unintentional and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

"Praise you for being handsome, and you can't wait to bring the wind when you walk." Xie Qian casually made up a sentence.

This sentence was very useful to him, Mu Chengye immediately laughed, held his head high and said: "In this way, you can be regarded as seeing my benefits and being able to agree to my previous proposal?" ”

"Not really." Xie Qian said without hesitation.

“……”

Mu Chengye was angry in his heart. walked forward quickly with a straight face. Hua Rong sighed deeply, and could only follow after him.

Xie Qian couldn't help but pout, and continued to walk leisurely at the end.

Walking out of Qingqiu Mountain, Mu Hongjia pinched the trick and flew along the peak with the three of them, and landed straight in Qizhou City.

Although Mu Hongjia didn't care about anything, after all, there was a certain risk in coming out this time, so he sent his subordinates to do a good job of reconnaissance in advance.

Recently, there have been a lot of evil spirits in Qizhou City, and they will cause chaos at night. After squatting in the city for two or three days, he found that these evil spirits seemed to have devoured the blood of foxes, which is why their power was so strong.

At this time, the sun is just right, and the streets are full of people. In late winter and early spring, the chill has not yet dissipated, but new shoots have already emerged on the branches. The town combines the beauty of a small town in the south with the ruggedness of a small town in the north.

Xie Qian was full of joy when he first entered this place, completely forgetting Fang Cai's troubles, and bouncing forward.

Mu Chengye frowned, took two steps to follow, rolled his eyes and said, "Don't run around, you won't be able to cope with any danger." ”

"Where can such a beautiful town be in danger?" Xie Qian retorted.

As soon as she finished speaking, she caught a glimpse of a roadside stall selling sugar gourds. She had never seen it before, and immediately leaned over with round eyes.

The old man who sold sugar gourds had white beard and white hair, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to buy a few and taste them, to ensure that they are sweet and lose your teeth!" ”

"What is this?" Xie Qian looked surprised, and even wanted to reach out and touch it.

Mu Chengye quickly pressed her hand, took out a few pieces of broken silver and handed them over, and said, "My sister has always been in the boudoir and has never been out, so she has never seen this. This sugar gourd looks good, bring me four. ”

"You don't need so much money, this young master." The old man returned all the broken silver, "Three copper plates one, four people have a total of twelve copper plates." ”

Hearing this, Mu Chengye was completely embarrassed. He has always estimated and given money when he goes out, and he will not bring copper plates, and he always feels that it is too heavy to bring too much. He rolled his eyes, then pulled out a relatively small piece of silver, handed it over, and said, "I don't have any change, and I'll tip you the rest." ”

The old man smiled helplessly, and did not reach out to take it.

Hua Rong couldn't bear it anymore, so he pressed his hand and whispered: "Childe, don't embarrass the old man, I'll come." As he spoke, he took out twelve copper plates from his bosom and handed them over.

The old man handed over the four sugar gourds, and Xie Qian immediately put them in his mouth and took a bite. The sweet taste spreads in the mouth, and it is even more delicious than nectar.

She happily finished eating the sugar gourd in a few bites, touched her mouth and sighed: "I didn't expect mortal things to be so delicious, if only I were a mortal." ”

"Where is it good to be a mortal." Mu Chengye teased her. took a bite of the sugar gourd, and the sweet and greasy feeling made him a little unbearable. He depressedly handed the sugar gourd to Hua Rong and motioned for him to eat it.

Hua Rong couldn't help it, looked at the sugar gourd in his hand that he hadn't bitten yet, handed it to Xie Qian, and said, "If the girl likes it, these will be eaten for you." ”

"Wow, Huarong, you're so nice!" Xie Qian said and took it and gnawed on Huarong, looking satisfied.

Mu Chengye's face was gloomy, and he regretted not giving her his sugar gourd directly.

In fact, Hua Rong didn't like to eat such sweet things, but in order to avoid waste, he ate all Mu Chengye's sugar gourds.

Mu Hongjiayun finished eating the sugar gourd lightly, as if he had lost his sense of taste. After eating, he took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, and said slowly: "Where did this investigation start?" ”

"Let's find a place to stay first, I'm sure I'll have to stay here for a long time." Mu Chengye said, scanned the street, found an inn, and immediately went in and asked for four good wings.

When he was about to take out the gold ingot, he was stopped by Hua Rong again. He finally figured out why the fifth prince was like being robbed after he went out, not only did he not have to look for money, but he also gave money indiscriminately.

The four of them stayed in it with peace of mind, put their luggage and had lunch in the lobby on the first floor, and by the way, planned where to investigate in the afternoon.

Mu Chengye divided the four of them into two groups, letting Xie Qian follow him, while Hua Rong went to protect Mu Hongjia.

This was unanimously opposed.

Mu Hongjia persuaded him earnestly: "Neither of you is strong in mana, why don't I be in a group with you, and Huarong and Miss Xie in a group." ”

At this moment, Xie Qian was completely out of the matter, and because he ate two large strings of sugar gourds, he was a little supportive, so he only cared about drinking the tea in front of him.

Mu Chengye on the side rolled his eyes, and was about to say something, when he saw Xie Qian tugging Hua Rong's arm and asked in a low voice: "Hua Rong, what else is delicious in the mortal world?" ”

"It's up to you." Hua Rong said patiently.

Xie Qian's eyes rolled: "I like sweets." ”

"Sweets...... Hua Rong wanted to say something, but when he saw Mu Chengye staring at him with murderous anger in his eyes, he hurriedly changed the conversation, "You can ask the fifth prince, he often goes to the mortal world to eat." ”

Xie Qian didn't dare to speak to him in the past few days, and immediately closed his mouth when he heard this.

Mu Chengye, who was still waiting for Xie Qian's question, saw that she suddenly died down, and immediately said dissatisfied: "Why don't you ask, I'm waiting for an answer!" ”

Mu Hongjia on the side couldn't help but smile and shook his head, and sighed: "I have never seen such a fifth brother, it seems that you are really interested in Miss Xie." ”

When the sentence fell, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
