Xihe smiled brightly, she didn't think he would rob her.

Xi He held a candy man in one hand, and after stangling between the two sugar men for a while, he planned to eat the rabbit candy man first, and as soon as he looked up, the mountain ghost walked to another stall.

She walked over and saw a small shop selling hairpins.

While she was looking curiously, the mountain ghost picked a crystal clear hosta from it and inserted it into her hair.

Xihe wanted to touch it but couldn't spare his hand for a while, so he heard the mountain ghost say, "It's beautiful." ”

"Thank you, Lord Mountain Oni." She said softly.

Seeing that he was about to come to an end, Xihe finally stopped, hesitated all the way, and decided to ask him, "Lord Mountain Ghost, can I ask you a question?" ”

"What's the problem?" He said.

"Mountain Ghost, is it really just because of the blood curse that you followed me all the way?"

The mountain ghost's eyes moved slightly when she looked at her, and her purple eyes lost the gentleness they had just now, but they were still as calm as before.

He listened to her and asked again, "Are you really just because I'm the only one who can help you alleviate the blood curse on your body?" ”

After a moment of silence, his eyes moved, looked into hers, and replied truthfully, "No. ”

After hearing this answer, Xihe's hand holding the candy stick loosened a little, "What is that for?" ”

There was silence again, and the people around them came and went, and they seemed to freeze at this moment.

After a long time, the two thin lips slowly spit out three words, "For you." ”

He didn't lie to her in the previous sentence, and this sentence is also true.

At this moment, the last three words he said almost exploded in her head, and kept looping in her ears.

For her?

Is this a confession to her in disguise?

Xihe stared at his handsome face in a daze, and did not move for a long time.

He smiled at her again, smiling indulgently, "Scared? ”

She nodded stiffly

But what's the matter, the ascetic demon venerable who is not close to women says things like "for her", can she not be scared?

"It's okay." He said, "No hurry. ”

"What's not in a hurry?" She was confused.

He smiled, "It's fine. ”

"Which inn have you moved to? I'll send you back. He said.

It's time to go back, she's been out for hours.

In order to avoid the master from encountering the mountain ghosts, Xihe only let him send him to the door of the inn, she stood at the door, and was about to speak, when she heard a sharp voice from overhead, "Xihe." ”

She stiffened, raised her head and looked inside the door, her master Ling Yao was standing there with her hands in her hands, and Xue Gu stood beside her with a difficult face.

It seems that she has recognized the mountain ghost.

Xihe turned his face sideways and whispered, "Lord Mountain Ghost, you go back first." ”

The mountain ghost glanced at Ling Yao inside the door again with an unpredictable expression, then turned around and drowned in the crowd.

After she followed the master into the house nervously, with a look from Ling Yao, Xue Gu consciously retreated to the door, and Xi He handed the candy man in her hand to Xue Gu, and closed the door by the way.

The atmosphere in the room was so low that he didn't dare to pant loudly.

After a moment of silence, Ling Yao asked, "He bought that sugar man for you just now, right?" ”

Xihe did not deny it.

"He killed Yan Lin, right?" She asked.

"It's not." She replied immediately.

"Isn't it?" Ling Yao narrowed her eyes and snorted coldly, "Then who else can there be besides him?" ”

Xihe replied honestly, "Master, Xihe doesn't dare to lie to you, Yanlin Xianjun really didn't kill him." ”

"Don't you dare to lie to me?" She sneered, "If it weren't for Aunt Xue saying that you disappeared on the street, the teacher would have been kept in the dark by the two of you." ”

Xihe immediately knelt on the ground and took the blame, "Master, this matter is my fault, and I asked my senior sister to help me hide it." ”

Ling Yao looked at her and said, "Aunt Xue, I won't care about it for a while, with your intelligence, if you don't believe it, you won't know his true identity." ”

She kept her head down and said nothing.

"Xihe, answer me, do you know who that person is?"

She remained silent.

"It seems that you have been getting along for a while, he is an ancient demon venerable, do you know if you believe it as a teacher?"

Xihe pursed his lips and replied in a low voice, "The apprentice knows." ”

The night before the Master arrived, she couldn't sleep at night, but when she woke up, she happened to hear the sound of conversation coming from the mountain ghost's room.

In the middle of the night, she walked over with a moment of curiosity, and accidentally heard the conversation between him and Yu Jingzi, just in time to hear Yu Jingzi call him "Ancient Demon Venerable".

Even if everyone in the world said that the Demon Venerable had been suppressed in the Forbidden Mountain by her master and Emperor Jun, and the introduction of heavenly thunder had already been wiped out.

But after getting along with him for more than two months, he does have too many doubts, such as the Demon Purification Bottle, the Red Shake Fan, the Subduing of the Red Crow, the Sky Breaking Technique, etc., which can only be done by the powerhouses in the Three Realms, and he can easily do it.

How could she not have guessed?

It's just that she has a hint of luck in her heart.

He said that he had seen the sunset in the Heavenly Palace, and Nagaki also told her that he was a close friend of the Qingru Priestess, and that he had fought against the demons alone and saved the mermaids.

If the Demon Venerable, why can he go to the Heavenly Palace, intersect with the goddess, and help the mermaids fight against the demons?

What if he is really a retired scattered immortal?

And when she heard Yu Jingzi call him the Demon Venerable outside the door, she seemed to have fallen into a pool of deep water, she was stunned for a long time, and when she was leaving, she accidentally hit the door and fled in panic.

And today, the mountain ghost told her again, "It's for her", and for a while, she was in turmoil.

She only knew that it was true that the mountain ghost protected her, and her love for him was also true.

Ling Yao's palm loosened and sighed, "Xihe, you are confused." ”

"If you know who he is, why do you keep him around? If you let Di Jun know about this, even if you are a teacher, you won't be able to intercede for you. ”

Xihe smiled faintly and replied, "Master, Xihe understands your hard work, and the disciples have a sense of proportion, so please rest assured Master." ”

Ling Yao sighed again and said, "Xihe, you and Xue Gu have always been very relieved to do things as teachers, since you said so, the master will not interfere in your affairs with him for the time being, as for how to deal with it, you know in your heart." ”

After a heavy conversation, Xihe went back to his room.

She stuck the candy man in the spout of the pot and sat down at the table with her hands on her cheeks, staring at the two sugar men distractedly.

First she remembered the scene when she was a sugar man with the mountain ghost, and then she couldn't help but think back to what the mountain ghost said to her.

I couldn't help myself, and the corners of my lips were slightly raised.

It wasn't until she realized she was thinking nonsense.

The top priority is how to deal with her and the mountain ghost-sama.

Master's meaning is obvious, she and the mountain ghost must be completely settled.

If it's over, how can she say it?

She thought hard in the room for a long time and didn't come up with a good way to face this matter, she didn't rest well last night, and today she was out for a long time, she was already exhausted, and she didn't lie on the bed for a while before squinting.

In the dream, it was full of pictures of her getting along with the mountain ghosts in the past.

She is not a little fairy of the immortal clan, and he is not a big devil who avoids hearing about it.

Suddenly, there was a pain on her face, someone pinched her face, her brow furrowed, and she raised her hand and pushed.

As soon as he pushed it away, the hand returned to his face, and then there was a bottom laugh.

Xihe opened his eyes instantly, and was about to sit up when he bumped into another head.

She rubbed her forehead painfully, looked at the man who was also touching her forehead, and said, "Mountain....Mountain ghost, why are you here?" ”

He stretched his brows, curled the corners of his mouth, and replied, "Benjun is not afraid that your master will embarrass you, and he is a little worried, so I will take a look." ”

Hearing the word "worried", Xi and his heart warmed.

She smiled and replied, "She's my master, at most she'll just say a few words to me, don't worry." ”

He looked at her, paused for a moment, and asked, "Then what did your master tell you?" ”

"Didn't say anything...."

The mountain ghost appeared in front of her for a while, and she didn't know how to say it, so she drove him away directly, which was not polite, and she didn't want to break his heart.

But if she doesn't say it, sooner or later someone will say it for her.

After thinking about it, it would be better for her to be tactful.

Xihe smiled a little embarrassed, "Lord Mountain Ghost, why don't you go downstairs and wait for me for a while, and I'll change my clothes and go to you." ”

Only then did the mountain ghost realize that his behavior was inappropriate, and he disappeared from the room with a low "um".

As soon as the person left, Xihe let out a long breath, she thought, her room let these two men go in and out at will, if it was placed in the mortal world, she would not even be able to say a good Langjun in her life.

She got up and changed her clothes, and went downstairs to look for him.

The two of them walked as they pleased, and unlike during the day, the streets were deserted at night, and the temperature was much cooler.

Just when Xihe didn't know how to phrase it, the mountain ghost said first, "You, do you already know the identity of this gentleman?" ”

"Hmm." She nodded, raised her face to look at him, and said shallowly, "Actually, I should have guessed your identity a long time ago, but I didn't want to face it." ”

"That's right, with your ingenuity, you can't guess."

"And I already knew it before Master told me."

He lowered his eyebrows and smiled, and asked, "You were the one who stood at the door last night, right?" ”

"The mountain ghost has known this for a long time."

"Then why do you dare to join me?"

She thought for a while before slowly replying, "Because...adults respect me and treat me very well, and adults have protected me along the way, and I am grateful." ”

"Although the Lord is a Demon Venerable, he is not the Demon Venerable as rumored in the world."

His eyes moved slightly, and the bottom of his eyes was like an ancient pool, faint and deep.

His gaze burned on her face, and his deep voice came from his ear, "Do you believe in Benjun so much?" ”

"It's not that I blindly believe it, but you make me want to believe you."

The play can be performed for others to see, but the details cannot stand scrutiny.

If he followed her as Yu Jingzi said that it was for the Nuwa Stone, then he would never easily hand over the Nuwa Stone Totem to himself, even if he wanted to use her hand to crack the secret of the Nuwa Stone Totem, when she showed him the map, he only glanced at it lightly, if he had a good memory, it would definitely be easy for him to get the Nuwa Stone before them with his ability.

Along the way, she had a thousand chances to die, and each time it was the mountain ghost who saved her from the hands of demons and monsters.

She will never forget how deep the blow he took from Chiwu alone in order to protect her at the foot of the Endless Mountain.

She can't forget this kindness.
