Episode 015: The Thief (2)
"What's going on?" She pretended to have just woken up, and looked at the demons outside the door with nervous expressions.
"Master Lotus, are you okay?"
A fox guard stepped forward, she vaguely remembered where she had seen this fox guard, but there were too many demons in this Qingqiu, and she didn't remember where this fox guard was on an errand.
"I'm fine, where are you a fox guard?" She leaned against the door and asked casually.
As she waited for the fox guard to answer, she saw the fox guard's eyes look around the room behind her, intentionally or not. Worried that the thief in the room would be discovered, she raised her hand and shook it in front of the fox guard's eyes, trying to interfere with the fox guard's vision.
"The subordinates are the fox guards beside the three elders, because the elders were robbed there, so they led their subordinates to search around, since the lotus master is fine, then the subordinates will go down first." The fox guard replied as he withdrew his gaze.
"Well, I'm going to catch up on sleep." With that, he closed the door.
But the fox guard outside the house said to herself after she closed the door: "How can the petals in the lotus master's house carry traces of spells? ”
She didn't hear the whisper of the fox guard, and even if she did, she had a way to deal with it, but the little demon in front of her, she was a little unsure, what she was worried about was not that she was afraid that the poison before would poison her.
"They're gone, come out!" She walked to where she had stood before, and looked at the little demon who came out from behind the screen, only to find that the little demon's face had changed from the other.
The eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, and the skin is like congealed cream, but the pair of watery eyes are still the same as before, and they have not changed at all. She expected that this was the true face of the little demon.
"You're funny, little girl." The little demon's momentum changed drastically, and the pressure on her was like that of one of the three elders.
"Why did the seniors come to Qingqiu to steal?" Although she didn't know the temperament of the demon in front of her, in order to satisfy her curiosity, she still asked.
"Oh? You're calm, and you don't look surprised. The demon walked up to her and looked her in the eye, "Aren't you supposed to let me give you the antidote?" ”
"The food that my predecessors gave me was not a poison at all, it was just an ordinary elixir, although I didn't understand pharmacology, but I could still tell if it was poisonous or not." She replied without fear.
She was almost sure that this demon definitely knew the three elders of Qingqiu, otherwise why would this demon know that Elder Song's medicinal technique was high yin and could detoxify the poison.
And although this demon held a knife against her neck before, it didn't mean to want her life, but simply wanted her to drive away the fox guards who were chasing, but what she didn't understand was that since this demon's momentum was so strong, it should be easy to escape from the hands of these fox guards.
"The destined person that Yan Yan's old guy calculated turned out to be not useless, at least this smart and yin energy is very much to my liking." Randomly chose a place to sit down, the demon poured himself a cup of tea, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed, "You can call me Zigui mother-in-law, you helped me this time, then give you a meeting gift!" ”
She only felt that there was one more thing in her hand, and the moment she lowered her head, she only heard the mother-in-law of Zigui hurriedly say: "Someone is chasing after me again, I can't let them see it, so I will leave first." ”
When she reacted, the petals all over the ground were rising in the wind, and the demon in front of her was gone, leaving only the cup of tea on the table that was still steaming. Pick up the thing in her hand and take a look, it is the bead that broke her spell before, and gave her such a precious thing for no reason, this Zigui mother-in-law is really willful.
