Chapter 41: The sorrow of the rain and the song is thicker
"Okay, junior sister." Lin Shouxi said.
"Senior sister?" Xiao He was stunned, quickly straightened his face, and said fiercely: "Don't regret it." ”
"Regrets?" Lin Shouxi asked suspiciously.
Xiao He took out a piece of colored feathers and shook it in front of Lin Shouxi, Lin Shouxi immediately thought of some kind of criminal law, panicked slightly, and asked, "You...... You're going to take this to me......"
"It's a Rainbow Feather." Xiao He said: "I used its power to cover my face before, if you dare not scream, I will use it to turn into a fierce god with a vicious face and fangs, and scare you every day." ”
"Oh, then you change." Lin Shouxi was relieved.
"You...... Don't cry if you don't see the coffin! ”
Xiao He was very angry, she put the colored phantom feather on the lower end of the collarbone, the colored feather melted into the skin, Xiao He chanted the spell softly, and began to change.
Lin Shouxi looked at her calmly, as if he would lose in the blink of an eye.
Xiao He's appearance changed a lot, Lin Shouxi was unmoved, she was very angry, and asked, "Hey, are you blind?" ”
"The appearance is all obsessed vanity, it can't hide Xiao He's brilliance, not to mention that if I can't find it, how can I call you junior sister calmly?" Lin Shouxi said.
Xiao He's eyelashes trembled slightly, his eyes flashed, and he quickly calmed down again.
"Flim Flam." Xiao He stretched out his hand and pulled his ear.
Lin Shouxi was lying on the couch, the seal in his body had not been removed, and he could only be manipulated by others.
Xiao He, who was wrapped in a bathrobe, bullied him for a while, got up, walked barefoot to the window, lowered the curtain, and the room was darkened, and the light passed through the gap in the curtain, drawing a line of light and shadow on her skin.
"Isn't my senior brother always full of lies, and he can bend and stretch? How can you call out to the master, and you would rather die than obey? ”
Xiao He turned around lightly, and displeasure was written between his childish eyebrows.
"Because I know that Senior Sister Xiao He won't do anything to me." Lin Shouxi said.
"Oh...... Do you have nothing to fear? Xiao He raised his eyebrows slightly.
Lin Shouxi nodded and admitted calmly.
Xiao He sighed, she put her arms around her chest and stared at Lin Shouxi for a while, there was really no good way for a while.
"It's okay, the coming day is long, I can train you slowly." Xiao He smiled sweetly and said confidently.
Lin Shouxi didn't refute anything, he was powerless to lie down at the moment, no matter what words he said, it seemed unconvincing.
"Alright, Miss Ben is going to change her clothes, you turn around."
Xiao He said as he spoke, his onion-like fingers had been picked into the snow-white belt.
"Why don't you go to another room?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"This is my building, where can I go and you can take care of it?" Xiao He was displeased.
Lin Shouxi turned his back with difficulty.
Xiao He smiled lightly: "Don't turn around, Miss Ben will eat you if you turn around." ”
Lin Shouxi is not afraid of Xiao He's threat, but he has always regarded himself as a righteous man and a gentleman, and he will never do such a thing that violates etiquette.
Wow!
It was like snow sliding down the slope of the house, and the thick bathrobe fell to the ground in such an uproar, and the sound of rustling sounded softly, like melting snow in winter, like reading a letter on paper.
Lin Shouxi closed his eyes and stuck to his heart, as if he hadn't heard anything, until the girl said 'Okay'.
Lin Shouxi turned his head, and Xiao He was holding his snow-white and graceful hair down, covering the snow-necked back of the back collar.
The slender Lingxiu girl turned around, she was wearing a dress similar to a robe, the crimson clothes were hung down, and the golden chicks were embroidered on it, the girl's body was petite, but the clothes were also cut decently, and her color was not quiet or noisy, revealing the meaning of grace and dignity.
"It's the first time I've worn such good clothes."
Xiao He stood on tiptoe, turned his body slightly in a half circle, and spoke leisurely.
"And what did you wear before?"
"I sew my own animal skin skirt to wear, and I have also made a fox fur dress, which is also very beautiful, and the big fluffy tail is very comfortable to hold in winter." Xiao He recalled.
"Then how do you know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" Lin Shouxi asked curiously.
"The piano can also be made by itself, it is not difficult, calligraphy and painting are simpler, the branches are the pen, the snow is the paper, it is inexhaustible." Xiao He said.
"I didn't expect you to be so simple since you were a child."
"How can there be fine clothes and food in the depths of the mountains?"
"Xiao He will be able to wear beautiful clothes in the future."
"No, it won't. Today is just a whim, try to play, such clothes are not suitable for combat at all, how to use it to travel? ”
Xiao He turned around slightly, looking at the clothes on his body with pity, his pale pupils covering between the drooping eyelashes, looking bleak. So the whole antique house also cooled down.
She wanted to learn to dance, but all her movements were murderous, and although they had a unique beauty, they didn't have much weakness.
She danced for a while, but felt bored.
"Senior sister, help me unseal my body first." Lin Shouxi proposed.
"Senior sister?" Xiao He asked lightly.
"Miss?"
"Hmm."
Xiao He was a little satisfied, she walked to Lin Shouxi's side in her dress, and stretched out her finger to point at his chest.
"When you were in the Evil Pool, your realm was at least the appearance of the Xuanzi Primordial Realm of the Cangbi Upper Realm, but ...... Why are there no air pills? Xiao He also noticed something unusual.
"My air pill is black." Lin Shouxi did not hide it.
"Black?"
Xiao He was amazed: "You are really a big dye vat, even the qi pill is in danger." ”
The girl taunted as she stretched out her finger and pointed at Lin Shouxi's chest and began to move.
Yun Zhenren is worthy of being an immortal, and the seal is very dead, even Xiao He at this moment is quite difficult to pry open.
"What realm are you in now?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Xuanzi Realm Upper Realm." Xiao He also does not hide it.
"What if I unravel this?" Lin Shouxi pointed to the red rope in his hand and asked.
"If you're brave, you can try." Xiao He smiled.
Of course, Lin Shouxi would not die, he smiled and said, "Don't you take back such an important thing?" ”
"Because if one day I need to untie it, I myself may go crazy at any moment, and then I need someone to lock it back in my arm, and think about it, it seems that you are the only one who is most suitable." Xiao He said lightly, as if he was stating something unimportant.
"Okay."
Lin Shouxi listened to her words, and his mood was much brighter.
Xiao He began to unseal him.
When the seal was lifted, the originally cold room suddenly became much more lively, and Xiao He's coquettish words sounded from time to time, with a faint sense of ridicule.
"You seem to be very sensitive here, are you afraid of itching?"
"Hey...... here, too"
"I see that you are usually cold and indifferent, why are your brows frowning now?"
"Is it painful? Just shout out if it hurts. ”
“……”
Xiao He's fingers landed precisely on Lin Shouxi's sturdy body, and from time to time he made a comment that made him feel ashamed, Lin Shouxi barely maintained even breathing, and silently vowed in his heart that he must take revenge.
“…… Is this the key too? Lin Shouxi suddenly asked.
"No, it's not." Xiao He blinked curiously, "It's just that I want to see it." ”
"Why do you look like you want to hit me?" Xiao He chuckled: "Angry? ”
"No, where do I dare to be angry with the eldest lady?" Lin Shouxi said.
"Huh? Do you dare to be angry with me? Xiao He's eyes narrowed, revealing a bad expression, and then twisted his ears together.
The two were entangled on the side of the collapse for a while, Xiao He untied half of the seal for him, she was also very tired, and gently wiped the corners of her forehead, but found that Lin Shouxi's face was slightly red, which contrasted with his cold expression.
"You seem nervous?" Xiao He asked.
"Nope."
"Really?"
Xiao He's beautiful eyes flowed, she gently lifted the hair that covered her side cheeks, revealing her little ears that were as bright as jade, she leaned over and leaned against Lin Shouxi's chest, as if listening to his heartbeat.
"Your heart is beating faster." Xiao He said.
"You're so ...... It's not uncommon to get faster. Lin Shouxi said hesitantly.
Xiao He was wearing a dress at the moment, which was relatively loose, leaning over his ears at the moment, his placket was lightly divided, and from Lin Shouxi's point of view, the straight and exquisite collarbones were like two white jade boats. The light boat is moored on the snow-white ice, and behind it is the outline of the snow-capped mountain shrouded in black color, and there are faint cold plum buds on the top of the mountain, which is lonely and beautiful.
Xiao He sensed something, and waved his little fist again.
……
Xiao He straightened out his slightly messy clothes, and his face returned to tranquility.
"By the way, the other gods have already made a contract with their master, when are we going to start?" Xiao He looked back and asked.
"Contract?"
Lin Shouxi was stunned for a moment, "Do you really want to be my master?" ”
"You think I'm joking?" Xiao He frowned.
"What is the use of making a contract?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Prevent betrayal." Xiao He said: "The purpose of the contract is to make the Chosen One loyal, so as not to have an accident when following the Great Ceremony of God. ”
"Do you think I'm going to betray you?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Don't do it." Xiao He said lightly: "I should be the master of this one." ”
As he spoke, Xiao He told Lin Shouxi the spell of the divine servant, and Lin Shouxi pretended not to hear it.
Xiao He didn't give up, took another piece of soft bamboo, sucked the ink, wrote something on it in one go, and then lightly picked his finger belly with a needle, squeezed out a salute of blood, pressed it on the end of the bamboo piece, and handed it to Lin Shouxi.
"You print one too." Xiao He said.
Lin Shouxi hesitated, the girl who was a junior sister before, now she wants to be called the master, and he can't accept it.
Xiao He looked into his eyes and asked softly, "What?" Don't want to? ”
Xiao He waited for a while, but he was also understanding, "Forget it, give you some time to think, and when you figure it out, press the handprint to me." ”
With a stroke of her fingers, she drew out a red envelope, pushed the thin bamboo paper letter into the envelope, sealed it, and handed it to Lin Shouxi.
Lin Shouxi took the envelope and accepted it.
"Come out for a walk with me." Xiao He said.
……
The wind was fine and the rain was continuous, Lin Shouxi walked beside Xiao He, holding a dark green bamboo umbrella for her.
Xiao He walked along the stone steps of the building, and many people in white looked over, all slightly stunned.
In the slightly dim weather, the new eldest lady seemed to break through the clouds and the moon, shaking Qinghui to the world, Xiao He smiled at everyone, everyone came back to their senses for a while, and immediately thought of the eldest son and the head of the family, no matter how beautiful this snow-haired girl was, they didn't dare to look at it more.
They were holding a hastily funeral.
When the team playing the violin saw the beautiful and terrible girl coming, the music stopped abruptly, for fear of displeasing her.
"Then the music is, I won't mess you up."
Xiao He said lightly.
Xiao Suo's music resumed, trembling and trembling, like crying, sending his soul away.
Xiao He raised his head and looked at the sky cut by the umbrella, and was distracted for a long time, as if these thousands of rain threads were the strings that were vibrating, and the sound of crying and complaining was made by it.
Lin Shouxi knew that she was missing her aunt.
Ahead, the second son and the third lady also came together, and when they saw the girl in front of them, they were all shocked, and hurriedly got out of the way, not daring to provoke her.
Ji Luoyang and Wang Erguan followed behind them, and when they saw Lin Shouxi, they looked at each other, relatively speechless, and a little embarrassed.
Since entering the Demon Slaying Courtyard, they have rarely communicated, and the friendship that was not a friendship when they met in the ancient court was almost worn out.
Several people passed by silently.
Walking into the alley, Lin Shouxi stopped.
The alley was not repaired, the wall on one side was destroyed by the crossbow in large pieces, the floor tiles were cracked in large areas, and there were many arrow holes, Lin Shouxi stood where he had fallen asleep, raised his eyes and looked into the distance, at this moment the fog had cleared, he could finally see the tower in front of him.
It has to be said that the killer chose a good position.
It is exactly where the houses are lined up, the tall wooden buildings are like screens, the residences of the second son and the third lady are all nearby, and it is said that there are many powerful offerings of the Wu family hidden in the building.
The killer was also calm after the defeat and left no traces.
If Yun Zhenren is unwilling to make a move, they will not be able to search for it in a short time.
"In the pool of iniquity, did you make any enemies when you walked alone?" Xiao He asked.
"Probably not." Lin Shouxi shook his head thinking about the monsters he had encountered and the teenagers he had encountered.
"By the way, is the arrow numbered?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Yes."
"Huh? How much? ”
"Fifteen." Xiao He said: "Fifteen died in the pool of evil, and that man used the arrows of the dead. ”
Lin Shouxi sighed and said, "I'll go and test Wang Erguan and Ji Luoyang later, in the evil pool, they have never acted with us, maybe something happened." ”
"Hmm." Xiao He's head.
Walking through this rainy alley, they went in the direction of the Demon Killing Courtyard, which was also holding a funeral, and it was a gloomy atmosphere.
After this turmoil in the evil pool, there are only a handful of survivors of the Demon Slaying Courtyard.
"I've seen the eldest lady." Deputy Sun appeared quietly, quite polite, but his words were cold.
When the Sword Pavilion chose the sword, the eyes of Deputy Yuan Sun and Yun Zhenren were attracted by Lin Shouxi, they didn't pay enough attention to Xiao He, so today's disaster happened.
"Is that sword still in the pavilion?" Lin Shouxi asked.
Deputy Yuan Sun was silent for a while and asked, "Do you really know that sword?" ”
Lin Shouxi groaned slightly, and Deputy Yuan Sun grabbed the words again: "Your life is safe now, just tell the truth, the old man is just curious." ”
"Well, since Vice President Sun asked so, then I'll tell you the truth."
Lin Shouxi said seriously: "I really don't know that sword, I just think it's ...... It seems to fit in with me. Of course, it was mainly because my blood-snatching sword was taken by Yun Zhenren, and I needed a new sword, so I remembered this incident. ”
Vice President Sun looked at him, sighed, and said, "That's it...... That sword is still in the Sword Pavilion, but it has been sealed, and it is inconvenient to take it, so you can take the other swords yourself. ”
"Seals?" Lin Shouxi asked, "Why do you want to seal it, does this sword have any fierce aura?" ”
"Fierce?" Deputy Sun snorted coldly: "It's not just as simple as being fierce. ”
Deputy Yuan Sun seemed unwilling to explain more, and disappeared after saluting Xiao He.
“……”
Lin Shouxi rubbed his forehead, still feeling uneasy.
After Vice Courtyard Sun left, the other disciples came up to greet them, and most of them had red eyes, as if they had cried fiercely. Only Xiao Qi stood in the distance, looked here for a while, and then turned to leave.
"I've seen the eldest lady."
The disciples of the Demon Killing Academy saluted Xiao He and said in unison.
They never thought that the girl, who was originally just a little delicate, would be so beautiful after losing her disguise, and those eyes with a light mist made them dare not look directly.
"You don't have to bow to me." Xiao He said softly.
Although the disciples of the Demon Slaying Academy made it difficult for them, it was harmless, and she would not take it to heart.
Lin Shouxi comforted the injuries of Twelve and Thirteen, and asked about the situation of the Demon Killing Courtyard, and both of them answered one by one.
Thirteen is also a little girl, she secretly looks at Xiao He from time to time, and her eyes dodge.
"Is there something wrong?" Xiao He noticed her gaze.
"Hmm...... I just remembered what Ah Shi said before. "Thirteen branches.
"What did Ah Shi say?" Lin Shouxi asked.
Thirteen glanced at Twelve, and Twelve ran into a room, took out a baggage, and handed it to Lin Shouxi.
"This is what Ah Shi sorted out last night, and I wanted to give it to you personally." Twelve said.
"It's ......"
"This is a gift from Ah Shi, although it is not a valuable thing, but it is also the family foundation accumulated over the years."
"It's good for you to keep these treasures for yourselves, you need them more than I do." Lin Shouxi said.
"Actually......" Thirteen suddenly spoke, she lowered her voice and said: "Ah Shi said, you will definitely marry Xiao He home in the future, he is afraid that he will not have a chance in the future, so he will give you the gift first, but he didn't expect it...... In a word, it became a prophecy. ”
"......" Lin Shouxi glanced at Xiao He.
Xiao He said lightly: "I can hear it." ”
The whispers of such a distance, of course, can't hide from Xiao He, who has the spiritual root of sound.
Thirteen hurriedly covered his lips.
Twelve asked: "Then dare to ask the eldest lady, can Brother Lin accept this gift?" ”
"Look at himself." Xiao He said coldly.
Facing everyone's eyes, Lin Shouxi hugged this burden and said, "Since it is a piece of Ah Shi's heart, of course I have to accept it." ”
Twelve and Thirteen looked at each other and smiled.
It was Xiao He, who pursed his lips and looked a little unhappy.
They walked around the Demon Slaying Courtyard, attended the funerals of their disciples, and then returned to their former house together.
Lin Shouxi looked at everything he was familiar with, a little sleepy.
Obviously a few days later, he had a feeling that many years had passed.
Lamentations drifted from the window, and the drizzle wet the window.
The two sat together by the window and listened for a while.
"You take care of your injuries." Xiao He said.
"Thank you for your concern." Lin Shouxi said.
"I don't care about you, it's just that I secretly swore before that I would beat you up in the future, and it's not interesting to beat you up if you're so depressed now." Xiao He said softly.
"Well, just wait until I'm well, you may not be my opponent."
"Hmph, let's try it."
The two of them sat quietly in the room, and when they pushed the door out, Yun Zhenren came, he hung down his sleeves, stained with frost and snow, and his fatigue was full.
"The demon...... It's gone. ”
