Chapter 50: The Nine-Tails of the Seven Houses

Xu Qiansu looked away and looked through the window at the bustling streetscape of Binhai City and the blue sea in the distance.

Marly and Gardelia's voices echoed in their ears, one was clear and transparent, the other was lazy and elegant, although they were arguing, but their voices were so good that if there was a speaker cricket man to accompany them at this moment, they would be able to debut as a popular singer immediately.

"In that case, what's wrong with Xu Qiansu not wanting to shake your hand?" Ma Li took the lead in grasping the key point of the quarrel and went straight to the road.

In fact, Xu Qiansu was not unwilling to shake Gadelia's hand...... It's just that in that case, it is naturally impossible for him to follow Jiadelia to the helicopter, leaving Marie alone below...... Marley knew this, but she used this technique anyway......

Therefore, if the trainer plays tactics like this, one of them is considered to be black.

But it's rare for Miss Marley to be so aggressive......

Well? Wait, the reason why it is rare is because every time Xu Qiansu admits his mistake in a timely manner, but if Miss Ma Li has a child in the future and treats her so harshly, the child may not be as kind as Xu Qiansu......

He/she will only find his/her mom nagging and annoying...... But Miss Marley is the type who will never admit defeat, and will definitely reprimand until the child admits his mistake.

Alas, how pitiful.

Xu Qiansu has already imagined the child's tragic childhood.

Marly's cold gaze came.

Xu Qiansu looked at the scenery outside the window, did not squint, and did not look at Ma Li at all.

Terrible! It's terrible!

No wonder Gadelia has been troubled for a long time by Mary's mind reading!

"If you stretch out your hand and Xu Qiansu is unwilling to shake it, will you be angry?" Gardelia answered the question with a question.

Xu Qiansu rubbed his eyebrows, what is this...... Is Cordelia the type of accountant who does this kind of thing? Rather, is she the type to quarrel with other people?

"There won't be that kind of situation...... Ma Li retracted her gaze, a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth, but she said calmly: "The two of us have known each other for a long time, and we have never been in that situation." ”

Jiadelia Dai raised her eyebrows slightly, and her lazy voice brought a bit of memory, "Ma Li said, 'There are people in the world who have known each other for decades but are like strangers, and there are people who have talked to each other a few times and become confidants'......"

"At the same time, people with great relationships can become strangers for some reason...... "Gadelia added: "Now is not a sign of the future. ”

The center of gravity of the quarrel seems to have shifted subtly......

Morubecco stood in his chair, his cute little face looking at Marie and Gadelia, then took the white seed out of his pocket, stuffed it in his mouth and chewed it.

"The future is just a hypothesis, there is no need to argue." Ma Li seemed to have the victory in her hands, her expression was calm and indifferent, and her words and deeds were full of a casualness that she was in control.

Gardelia didn't say anything more, but moved her gaze to Xu Qiansu, and stretched out her white and tender little hand again.

Xu Qiansu was slightly stunned

King fried.

She chose not to continue arguing with Marly, and returned directly to the essence of this quarrel.

Gardelia has a personality that goes her own way, what is there to quarrel about? What if you quarrel with Marley and win? It doesn't make sense.

Xu Qiansu didn't shake her hand, she was unhappy, as for why she was unhappy, this reason was not important.

But as long as Xu Qiansu is willing to hold it at the moment, it is enough.

Ma Li's expression changed slightly, and then glanced at Xu Qiansu.

Morubecco stood on the seat, his cute little face looking straight at Marie and Gadelia and Xu Qiansu, and then took out the white seed from his pocket, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.

The two beautiful girls looked directly at Xu Qiansu.

Why did it evolve like this? Xu Qiansu was sure that he had nothing to do with Jiadelia, and he was also sure that Jiadelia had no unusual feelings for him at all...... But why did things turn out this way?

Xu Qiansu naturally couldn't touch Gadelia's little hand at such a time.

He chewed on his words and said cautiously, "I think what you just said is right, I shouldn't have touched Gardelia's hand casually, let alone Miss Mary's hand, and it is undoubtedly wrong to always adopt this attitude of pulling the distance without a trace......

"But I'm not happy." Jiadelia frowned, ignored Xu Qiansu's words, and leaned forward with her little hand.

Xu Qiansu looked at Ma Li and asked for her help.

But Ma Li watched coldly.

At this moment, Jiadelia withdrew her little hand again, and just when Xu Qiansu thought she was completely angry, she saw her glance at Xu Qiansu with an inexplicable smile on her face.

She wasn't angry at all, she was just teasing Xu Qiansu.

Dangerous! It's too dangerous!

These two beautiful girls are a terrible one! A danger!

Gadelia looked at Marley and said as if ostentatiously, "Because of you, he didn't agree, but he didn't refuse, so I won, Marry." ”

Ma Li sighed lightly, "Being led by your nose like this...... It looks like I lost this time. ”

What the two women said was not the same thing at all.

Gadelia was showing off that Xu Qiansu didn't directly refuse, if Ma Li wasn't there, Xu Qiansu might hold her hand.

And Marley saw that all this was done intentionally by Gardelia, whether it was angry or quarrelling, it was all Gardelia deliberate...... The purpose, perhaps, is the same as Zhulan, for fun.

She didn't notice that, so she threw in the towel.

Thinking about it, Ma Li looked at Xu Qiansu, and a little thought appeared between her eyebrows.

How is it that when it comes to him, I lose my old judgment?

If it was the usual Marry, she would have judged the reason from the fact that Gadelia had no reason to be angry...... Where would you argue with her like this.

She pondered for a moment, then glanced at Xu Qiansu, looked away again, and turned her head to look out the window, looking at the street scene of Binhai City and the sparkling sea in the distance.

Morubecco stood on the chair, looking at Marley with a cute little face, then took the white seed out of his pocket, stuffed it in his mouth and chewed it.

……

The helicopter landed steadily outside the villa, and when everyone returned to the villa, Zhulan called.

"Zhenxing was arrested, but I didn't see the figure of Sui Xing and Gangxing......" Zhulan's mature voice was a little thoughtful, and then chuckled, "Anyway, thank you, 100,000 yuan will be credited to your account later." ”

Xu Qiansu rolled his eyes, if it weren't for Lucario, Xu Qiansu would probably have a fierce battle with Zhenxing...... And he also mastered the power of waveguides from Lucario...... No matter how he thinks, he owes Zhulan a favor again.

He opened the refrigerator, took out a cucumber from it, washed it, took a bite, chewed, and said, "Because of your Lucario, I have awakened the power of the waveguide, and I am the one to thank you." ”

"Waveguide?" Zhulan was slightly stunned, then pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "Since you have this talent, then whether you have my Lucario or not, you will awaken, but sooner or later." ”

With Zhulan's vision, although the power of the wave guide is worthy of her sideways, it is only a sideways eye.

"That being said...... Xu Qiansu sighed lightly, "this trip to the ruins is like a family, it's all up to your Lucario, so it seems that there are more and more things owed to you...... If you have any commissions on hand, it doesn't hurt to tell me as well. ”

The other end of the phone was silent, but there was an inexplicable sense of embarrassment.

Zhulan may not have a commission on hand, but she may have a ...... on her little feet

"I'm going to play an exhibition match, hang up first, and talk later." After that, without waiting for Xu Qiansu to respond, Zhulan hung up the phone directly.

Xu Qiansu put away his mobile phone and came to the living room with a cucumber.

Miss Mary and Gadelia sat on the sofa, looking at the TV, but they were all right.

Xu Qiansu is not here, and the two women will naturally not be as-for-tat as before.

The screen is a huge Pokémon vs. battlefield, and the host is fiercely explaining what......

The game between Zhulan and the Four Heavenly Kings Gomatsu.

Wu Song, the king of the super energy department, loves to read, has the demeanor of some scholars, and his strength goes without saying, but it seems that every time this kind of scene happens, he is always the first to fight with Zhulan.

Xu Qiansu sat next to Ma Li.

Then Ma Li took the cucumber he had washed, broke it, and handed him the end that Xu Qiansu had bitten...... I nibbled on the one underneath.

"I want to eat too~" Gardelia floated over and said.

"If I don't wash this cucumber, aren't you going to eat it?" Xu Qiansu stood up helplessly, took a cucumber to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and picked up some tree fruits.

"There was less food...... Let's go out and buy some later. Xu Qiansu closed the refrigerator, washed the tree fruits, and whispered to himself.

has been living in Jiadelia's house, eating and drinking from other people's food, and her refrigerator is about to be emptied, although Jiadelia is a rich woman who doesn't care, but it is obviously impossible for Jiadelia to pay for it.

When Xu Qiansu came to the living room with a fruit bowl, the exhibition match had already begun, and the two girls were looking at the screen intently.

Marie is here to learn how to fight in this game.

Gadelia simply wanted to see Zhulan.

Xu Qiansu put down the fruit bowl, sat next to Marly, picked up Chirulian, picked up the fruit knife, and stared at the screen while peeling the fruit for the Pokémon.

Although the exhibition match is an exhibition match, with Zhulan's temperament, it is obvious that it will not only perform, and Wu Song has always regarded Zhulan as a strong opponent, so he did not use this exhibition match to test Zhulan's strength, so he was ruthless, so this exhibition match can also be regarded as half an official game.

In the screen, the fierce bite land shark is majestic, and all of Wu Song's moves, one of them is counted as one and all of them, and he doesn't hide at all, and directly fights Wu Song's Sun Eevee and the Demon Wall puppet.

If the gap in hard power is too large, tactics will lose their meaning.

Xu Qiansu finished peeling the tree fruit and handed it to the little bag beast that was looking at him, and then the tree fruit was reached out and taken by Gardelia.

"Karui?" The little supposer tilted its head, and then looked at Xu Qiansu again.

Xu Qiansu peeled the second tree fruit, and then Miss Ma Li reached out and took it.

"Karuka?" The little suppury beast tilted its head again, then picked up a tree fruit, showed its little claws, wiped it in a few seconds to peel it clean, and then handed the smooth tree fruit to Xu Qiansu.

Xu Qiansu looked at his fruit knife, and then threw it down directly.

What a fruit knife, useless thing.

After watching it for a while, Xu Qiansu felt that this exhibition match was not interesting, so he stood up and said, "I'll go out and buy something." ”

"I'll go with you." Marie stared intently at the screen, then withdrew her gaze and stood up.

Xu Qiansu's fortune...... It's hard to say, although the probability of being assassinated when you go out to buy vegetables is small, it is not impossible.

"Just buy something." Xu Qiansu smiled dumbly, pinched the back of the pickpocket cat's neck, and said, "Just accompany the pickpocket cat." ”

"Cha?" The pickpocket cat was carried by Xu Qiansu to look at him, but when he heard the words, he squinted at Xu Qiansu, and looked down on him.

Hearing this, Ma Li glanced at Xu Qiansu up and down, and suddenly realized that in fact, when she went out to explore, most of the time Xu Qiansu was protecting her.

She ran her fingers around the black hair that fell from her shoulders: "Then you come back early." ”

"Understood."

The pickpocket cats all followed, and it was naturally impossible for Xu Qiansu's Pokémon not to follow.

After Xu Qiansu left, Ma Li withdrew her gaze.

Gardelia gave Marley a puzzled look, then floated over and asked, "You seem to be bored?" ”

Maridai raised her eyebrows slightly, and Gadelia didn't often talk to her, and she asked, "Why do you think so?" ”

Jiadelia replied softly: "When Zhulan is not around, I am like this~"

"Also?"

"Also." Gardelia nodded slightly.

"You're mistaken." "The two of us are indeed good friends, but we haven't reached the point where we feel bored without anyone. ”

"Hmph~" Gardelia let out an inexplicable nasal voice, drifted back to its original position, picked up a tree fruit, the lips that were far more seductive than the tree fruit closed one by one, and bit off the flesh, "There is no point in detaching from the assumptions of practice, and when he leaves you for a while, you will understand." ”

Ma Li was not interested in this topic, she stopped talking, looked away, and continued to watch Zhulan's game.

……

"A thousand-year-old shop, a seven-year-old house?" On a street corner in Binhai City, Xu Qiansu looked at the extremely classical decoration of the cottage and tilted his head slightly.

Of course, what he cares about is not the name of the thousand-year-old store...... A thousand-year-old shop, doesn't that mean that this shop existed during the washing period? It's too fake.

What made him care was the portrait of the six tails on the signboard.

He lowered his eyes to the six tails and said with a smile: "It seems that this shopkeeper also has a six tails." ”

"Woo~" The six tails followed at Xu Qiansu's feet, and when he heard this, he raised his little face and screamed softly.

Xu Qiansu lifted the curtain and walked into the store, and the six tails followed Xu Qiansu closely with elegant cat steps.

There are no customers in the store, and the overall decoration style of the store is as classical as the storefront, and it really has the taste of a 'thousand-year-old store'.

There are all kinds of steamed buns on the shelves...... There are only steamed buns.

The owner is an old lady in her sixtieth year, she sits behind the shelves, holding a newspaper, quiet and contemporary...... It looks out of place in modern society.

"Granny...... How do you sell steamed buns? Xu Qiansu looked at the steamed buns on the shelves, thinking about the name of the store and the steamed buns...... It has a bit of a fate with "Natsume's Friend's Account".

When the shopkeeper heard this, he raised his eyes, but he was the first to see the six tails who followed Xu Qiansu's legs.

Her eyes lit up slightly, put down the newspaper, picked up a few steamed buns from behind the shelves and put them gently in front of the six tails, and said slowly in a low but kind voice: "Eat as much as you want, eat as you like...... Out of the way. ”

"Huh?" The six tails tilted their little heads and looked at Xu Qiansu.

Xu Qiansu gently patted the little head of the six tails, "Eat." ”

"Does the old grandmother also have six tails?" Xu Qiansu glanced around, but didn't see the figure of the six tails, and turned his head to ask.

The store manager shook his head slightly, hooked the corners of his mouth, set off a wry smile, and said, "It's not six tails, it's nine tails...... But she's very old, and I guess I'll have to catch more than her...... So now I'm sleeping in the back of the house."

"Old?" Xu Qiansu was slightly stunned, the lifespan of Pokémon is such a thing...... Although he had heard of it before, this was the first time he had heard it positively.

And...... Or even in Pokémon, it belongs to the extremely long-lived Nine-Tails clan.

He asked softly, "Can I see her?" ”

"She's always sleeping...... the store manager said in a low voice, then glanced at the six tails, hesitated for a moment, nodded slightly, and led Xu Qiansu to the back of the cupboard, lifted the curtain, stepped into the corridor, and came to a room.

There was a curling incense in the room, and in the light smoke, I saw a fox much longer than the six-tailed fox lying on the tatami mat, its golden hair had dimmed, and its nine beautiful fluffy tails hung weakly on the ground.

"Huh?" Six-Tails tilted his little head and looked at his evolutionary type.

Xu Qiansu didn't make a sound, so as not to disturb her, but when she saw the nine-tailed nose move slightly, she opened her eyes, slowly raised her head, and looked at Xu Qiansu.

"Woo~" Her eyes lit up slightly, and she called softly.

The store manager was slightly stunned, and then whispered in disbelief: "Woke up?" ”

She propped herself up, but couldn't get up...... She was already weak.

Xu Qiansu picked up his six-tailed, walked in slowly, sat on the tatami mat, stretched out his hand, and gently stroked the nine-tailed fur that was dull but still extremely soft.

Xu Qiansu approached, not because of any curiosity, he just felt that the six tails contained the power of the phoenix king in their bodies, and being so close might be able to arouse a little vitality of the nine tails.

"Woo~" Nine-tails gently rubbed Xu Qiansu's hand, but he seemed to like him very much.

Xu Qiansu didn't say much, stroked the Nine-Tails for a while, and then held his breath and condensed, mobilizing the power of the waveguide he had just mastered to probe the Nine-Tails' body......

The body of the Nine-Tails has dried up, and there is no way to return to the sky, and it should have died a long time ago, and it is still alive now, or it is a miracle...... Either it's because of some obsession, but it seems that because of the power of the Phoenix King in the six-tailed body, the little vitality left in the body is a little more active.

It's not much, but it's ...... Better than nothing.

Xu Qiansu pursed his lips and asked, "What other wishes do you have?" I'll do it for you. ”

The Nine-Tails shook his head slightly, then leaned closer to his head and licked it lightly on Xu Qiansu's side face.

Just this action seemed to consume all her strength, and she lay on the ground, closed her eyes, and after a while, she fell asleep tiredly.

Xu Qiansu stroked the fur of the nine-tails for a while, then stood up, he looked at the store manager standing outside the door, smiled, and said, "Store manager, buy some steamed buns." ”

“…… Well. ”

——

Tomorrow to catch the high-speed rail home, the road is far away, basically sit all day, I write more tonight, I hope to send out tomorrow's copy.

Also, about the recent updates of the book, always write two in one...... The main reason is to make the average data look better, and you can spend less time thinking about the title.

When I get home, I'll see if I can make 6,000 words a day.

Thank you for your support.

Oh, by the way, basically every volume has a book friend who says that I have changed the style of writing, and the first volume is accused of me writing the heroine and not writing Pokémon, so I abandon the book and abandon the book.

The second volume is that I don't write about winter camping and not Pokémon, so I don't have that flavor anymore, so I abandoned the book.

In the third volume, I thought I had a lot of knives, wrote Zhulan, Gardelia, didn't write Pokémon, and abandoned the book.

It's understandable, but in fact, from beginning to end, my style and what I want to write haven't changed, but I just need foreshadowing, and I want to write the beginning and fall of the plot more delicately and softly.

Above.
