"Ah Xi, you still look so beautiful when you smile, you can't get tired of looking at it!" Su Yunqing smiled and leaned her face closer, "Let me kiss it." ”

Lin Xi dodged and said, "I'll just say that Jiang Shaoxia is not that kind of person." ”

"Ah Xi, you are so naïve, you will be deceived by his sanctimonious appearance! You bet a cucumber on you, he's definitely that kind of person! Su Yunqing said, naturally hugging Lin Xi's slender waist.

Lin Xi frowned, but was attracted by the topic in her mouth and did not resist.

"Don't look at him pretending to be reserved in front of you, he looks like a dog, but he is actually a hungry ghost, if it weren't for my cleverness, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to see you in its entirety...... Ah Xi, what are you looking at? ”

Su Yunqing said as she spoke, but found that Lin Xi's gaze unconsciously drifted out of the pavilion.

It seems that a group of boys walked by from a distance.

"Ah, nothing, you go on."

Su Yunqing was keenly aware of Lin Xi's uneasy state, and even when she heard Jiang Chen's news, she was a little absent-minded.

"Ah Xi, what's wrong? It's only been ten days since you see you, and you've become so weird! "Ah Xi used to be dismissive of these boys, could it be that something new happened in the past few days since I left?

Lin Xi was silent, turned his face to look at the sparkling lake willow embankment on the other side, and after a while, he finally made up his mind and said, "Chen Yu proposed to me." ”

"Huh? Who? ”

"Chen Yu. He is willing to join the Lin family and assist me in taking charge of the Lin family. The elders of the family were quite satisfied with him and asked me to think about it......"

In the latter words, Su Yunqing didn't have the heart to listen carefully, she searched her intestines and scraped her stomach, and only then did she find the information of the man named Chen Yu from her memory.

Among Lin Xi's many suitors, Chen Yu is an inconspicuous one, compared to a radiant leader like Shen Yueyang, Chen Yu can be regarded as obscure. However, diligence and simplicity are also his strengths, so compared to those noisy and noisy people who are like male peacocks, Su Yunqing has a little less bad feelings towards him.

But, that was before! Who would have thought that such a taciturn nobody would have the courage to propose to Lin Xi first?

After hearing the news from Lin Xi's mouth, Su Yunqing only felt that the blood in his whole body was rushing to his head, and he couldn't wait to immediately rush over and punch the kid who didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

"This bedbug, the waste wood that can't be discharged in the top ten of the Star Courtyard, how dare he, dare to eat swan meat with a toad......"

Lin Xi grabbed Su Yunqing's wrist to prevent her from making any drastic moves, and sighed lightly, "Yunqing, you should know that people like us can't make their own decisions about marriage." That time in the Netherworld Forest was my last indulgence......"

Su Yunqing restrained her anger and had to admit that what Lin Xi said was the truth.

As a top world lord like the Lin family, Lin Xi, as the eldest daughter, must make sacrifices for the family. Although the Chen family is not as good as the seven major families, it can be regarded as a first-class family, and even the Su family wanted to win it over before, but it has been vacillating among several major families. Now that Chen Yu is proposing to Lin Xi, it also shows his attitude of belonging, if this family affair is completed, it will be beneficial to both parties.

Su Yunqing's arms trembled slightly. She originally planned to ask Lin Xi for credit with Jiang Chen's oath of inner demons, but now she was not even in the mood to speak.

Just watched Ah Xi fall into the hands of a delusional bedbug? No, she definitely won't say yes!

Whatever she does, she's going to shatter that bedbug's dream!

"Yo! Isn't this the little slut of the Lin family? I heard that you are getting engaged in the near future, congratulations! In the distance, Gao Qingxue walked over unhurriedly accompanied by two maids with a happy smile on her face......

…………

The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is huge, and you can sweat even if you wear a single coat during the day, but you must wrap yourself in a cotton jacket when you travel at night to withstand the cold wind of the night.

In addition to the cold wind, travelers should be more careful of the elusive sand pirate troops. After moving away from the core of the dark red sand dunes, the sand thieves became more and more rampant, with the strong soldiers and horses as the king, disobeying the orders of the Black Sword Saint, and robbing houses without any scruples.

After passing by the two convoys, Jiang Chen and the others saw the corpse of the third convoy, or the third convoy - they finally no longer had the good luck of the first two, and they were tragically poisoned by sand thieves.

In the camp where the smell of blood was filled, there were traces of camels and horses trampled everywhere.

The scene was a mess, and the severed limbs and mutilated bodies were laid on the ground. The heads of the old man and the child were cut off and placed at the entrance of the camp, and the miserable corpses of the women lay on their backs, bloody and shocking.

This is undoubtedly the evidence of the rampant sand pirates.

There were fewer bodies of men in the prime of life, and according to Dushan, most of those who survived were sold into slavery at the dune center population market.

Witnessing such a tragic event, Xining and Du Juan were all shocked, but the master and servant of the Liu family were calm.

Although her face was slightly ugly, Liu Qian still instilled the truth of the law of the jungle to the two little sisters as a big sister.

In front of Xining and others, who are also women, Liu Qian undoubtedly has an extraordinary sense of superiority, she thinks that compared to these delicate women, she has seen the world, and her realm is higher than the two little sisters, so she often talks to them about some life knowledge.

Xining generally only listened silently on the sidelines, but Du Juan admired Liu Qian very much, and Liu Qian also enjoyed Du Juan's admiration, and the relationship between the two soon became close.

From dusk to dawn, as the sun rises in the east, the warm heat of the sun drives away the cold of last night. Before the warmth turned to a scorching heat, the group paused to camp and take a break.

The gradual emergence of sparse vegetation on the yellow-brown soil meant that the Netherforest was not far away a little further south.

The tired travelers who had been driven all night rested separately, and the deserted wilderness fell into silence.

Jiang Chen looked through the gap in the tent and silently looked at the dim sky in the distance.

Although the full moon in the vault could not be seen in the daytime, it was to be expected that in the area that was gradually moving away from the desert, the color of the bright moon would no longer be blood-red, but should change to a bright silver-white color. The demonic nature of Akatsuki, which is linked to blood and makes people stupid and restless, has also left them.

In the open field, the wind is endless, and there are waves of heat.

The sound of the wind was curling, the fine sand was lightly beating on the pengmen, and the aftermath was endless, and the blood and qi in Jiang Chen's body were no longer shackled by the invisible force, and circulated quietly in the limbs.

He found that after leaving the Akatsuki Realm, his control over the Boiling Blood had advanced to a higher level, and perhaps it was only a matter of time before he surpassed the Eighth Order "King Kong" Realm.

Happily, this progress was not an illusion created by the enemy's trap, but was entirely under his own control.

"Alas......"

The joy of becoming stronger didn't last long, and for some reason, when I felt the strength of my blood growing bit by bit, there was a kind of loneliness lingering in my heart.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but think of Su Yunqing, Lin Xi, Ying Xuan, Yun Su, and Zhang Yuting.

In the warm afternoon sun, when I think of this journey, everything that happened along the way seems to fade away with the end of the song.

At this time, he was about to officially enter the ninth order of "Impeccable", but there was no one around him to share the joy...... This feeling is a little lonely!

Jiang Chen's right hand reached into the land, closed his five fingers, picked up a handful of yellow sand, and then opened his five fingers at will, watching the sand particles slowly slide down from between his fingers, wanting to let go and stay, as helpless as yesterday......

"The sand between your fingers, the snow on your palms, you can't keep it away from others." Through a thin curtain, someone sighed softly outside the tent.

Jiang Chen woke up. I was so immersed in my heart that I didn't even notice that someone was coming. However, it is also because there is no threat to the comer, which is not enough to arouse vigilance.

He looked back and saw that it was Liu Qian's personal maid Xiao Mink, also wearing a military uniform, standing outside the tent, and saw everything in his tent through the gap.

"Little mink girl." Jiang Chen opened his mouth and asked, "You have something to do with me?" ”

The little mink tapped the head of the mantis and looked over with a glint in his eyes: "Can I go in and talk?" ”

Although it is broad daylight now, but when she is in a hurry, it is day and night, and it is equivalent to sleeping time at this moment, why is she going to come in?

Jiang Chen turned a few thoughts in his mind, and politely declined in his mouth: "Peng Long is narrow and ugly, I am afraid that it will stain the girl's jade toes, and the little mink girl may as well say it directly." ”

"It's so hot outside." The little mink made a movement to wipe his sweat, and said pitifully, "I want to go in and talk slowly." ”

As the sun gets higher, it's not appropriate to let a girl's house bask in the sun outside the door, but it's even more inappropriate to let her in.

Jiang Chen was about to think of a reason to refuse, but when he saw her figure swaying, he pushed the door and walked in.

"Uh, mink girl......"

"It's hot to me." Xiao Mink slapped the wind in his ear a few times with his jade palm, sat down by Jiang Chen's straw mat without hesitation, turned his head and said, "I came this time to tell Gongzi a secret." ”

"Oh? What secret? "Jiang Chen thought to himself, lonely man and widow, you are so persistent in coming in, is it because of the order of Miss Liu to test me?

With a "bang", the hot wind closed the tent door, the movement of the outside world was isolated, and the breathing sound of the two people in the room suddenly became clear and audible.

Xiao Mink glanced back, and seemed to have just woken up to the inappropriateness of the current scene, and looked at Jiang Chen worriedly: "You won't mess around, right?" ”

Jiang Chen couldn't cry or laugh. If you're worried about this, why bother to walk in!

Since he knew that he had somehow added the nickname of "Cherish the Playboy", he had taken care to avoid some rude acts that were easy to cause misunderstandings, and now for the first time, he took a serious look at the face of the little mink. I saw that she was delicate and soft, with a beautiful nose and cherry lips, a pair of eyes with veins, but her hairstyle was simply tied in a bun, combed quite heroically, and she deliberately made a shy posture at this time, with her eyebrows and eyes, both heroic and soft, this sense of contradiction can easily arouse the desire of men to embrace her.

But since Jiang Chen knew that she was Liu Qian's personal maid, he should have stayed away from her.

"If the little mink girl is not at ease, please finish her words quickly and go home early."

The mink giggled, "I'm sure you're not that kind of person." ”

"You and I are only one side, how does the little mink girl know what kind of person I am?"

The little mink didn't answer, put his hands together, and raised a handful of yellow sand, his movements were the same as Jiang Chen's.

She stared at the image of wisps of sand seeping down, and said softly, "I know that the world misunderstands you very much, and you must be very lonely......"

Jiang Chen smiled slightly. Xiao Mink's words may have wanted to move him and slowly penetrate into his heart. But for him, loneliness is just a feeling of being alone and in the blink of an eye, which will not be delayed for too long, and will not be touched by the words of a strange woman.

He looked at Xiao Mink's expression and casually agreed: "No way, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and people who are too good will always be a little lonely." ”

"Are you used to this loneliness?" The mink said, spilling his palms on the ground, throwing the rest of the sand down.

Between the flying grains of sand at her fingertips, her eyes seemed to be a little confused, and she smiled, "Actually, from the first time I saw you, I knew that you were not a bad person. ”

Jiang Chen also looked at the sand grains that were scattered and splashed on the bamboo mat, and wanted to say: Girl, don't you know that my bamboo mat will be used to sleep for a while?

In the end, he held back after all, and said perfunctorily: "The little mink girl's vision is really accurate." ”

"They don't believe in you, but I believe in my own vision." The mink's smile became a little thicker, and his tone was half-truthful, "That's why I walked through this door to prove that I was right." ”

"You're not afraid to look away?"

"If I'm wrong, I'm to blame, and I don't blame anyone, only that I don't know anyone."

Jiang Chen's eyes flashed, and he said tentatively, "Then will you blame me?" ”

The mink shook his head: "If this is your nature, I don't have a reason to blame you, just ...... Think of it as a lesson! ”

"Hey—" Jiang Chen sighed, "girl, you are such a bold and strange woman!" ”

The little mink responded to Jiang Chen's gaze, her eyes flashing and giggled.

Her laughter suddenly stopped, and she heard Liu Qian's dissatisfied cough in the distance, reminding her not to waste time and act quickly.

This is a unique secret contact between the master and servant, directly connected by the divine soul, even if Jiang Chen's cultivation is close to the ninth order "impeccable", it is difficult to detect, but he noticed the change in Xiao Mink's face and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's nothing, I remembered a secret and came to tell you." The little mink propped up his upper body and leaned towards Jiang Chen's side, "You come here with your ears." ”

Jiang Chen's heart flashed with vigilance, but his face remained silent, and he only secretly tensed his muscles.

The little mink got closer little by little, and although he wanted to do something tempting, he was actually a little reluctant in his heart.

What she said to Jiang Chen just now was half-true - although she did think that it was unlikely that Jiang Chen was a "playboy", but ...... What if you guess wrong?

The murderous reputation of "Cherish Playboy" has spread all over the world, ranking first among the four great prostitutes, and it is by no means controlled by a mere jade talisman! If it is self-defeating, will the little woman not suffer an unjustified disaster?

When it comes to his innocence, the little mink will never really be as calm as he says.

She's a little maid, she doesn't want to come to this muddy water at all, okay!

In the distance, Liu Qian's coughing sound was heard again, urging the little mink to stop rubbing.

"Oops!" The little mink suddenly screamed, didn't sit still, and fell towards Jiang Chen.

"Eh, be careful!" Jiang Chen also shouted.

But not only did he not reach out to help, but his body shrank back by half an inch.

As soon as there was a "poof", the mink fell straight on the mat, with his hips up and his face down.

“……”

“……”

At an angle that Jiang Chen couldn't see, Xiao Mink's face was against the ground, clenching his silver teeth.

Originally, according to the plan, she should have fallen on top of Jiang Chen and took advantage of the situation to rush into his arms.

However, after all, she knew that Liu Qian's idea was really terrible, and she was forced to become a prostitute - no matter whether people cherish the dude or not, Wen Xiang Nuanyu is full of arms, and any normal man can't help it!

So she revised the script without authorization, and the angle of falling was much off, as long as Jiang Chen stretched out her arm to help her, she used her strength to stabilize her center of gravity, and then immediately sat down again.

In this way, not only has the task explained by Liu Qian been completed, but there will be no inappropriate scenes for children, isn't it beautiful?

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, how could I think that Jiang Chen didn't even stretch out her arm, so she had nowhere to borrow strength, and she fell strongly.

There was a long silence.

Face down, mink's little fists clenched and relaxed, slowly climbed up and sat up, patted the dust on his body, and the smile in his eyebrows and eyes was not much left.

"I'm so embarrassed to make such a mess, oh hehehe!" The little mink smiled in his mouth, but there was no smile on his face, "It's so strange, how could it fall......"

Jiang Chen sat down and replied solemnly: "It should be because the center of gravity of the upper body has deviated." ”

The implication is: maybe you're too big.

The little mink glanced down and turned red: "Please don't think about some dirty things." ”

"I didn't think about it."
