Chapter Twenty-Nine: It's Better to Be Famous Than to Meet
Lang Ri looked up at the two words on the door of the Li family, thinking that it should be here, so he stepped forward and knocked on the door, heard the knock on the door, and after a while, Steward Li came out to open the door, and saw the tall Lang Ri outside the door, Steward Li looked up and was stunned, "You, who are you looking for?" "Does Li Maochun live here?"
"Yes, you are?" The outsider's dress didn't want to come from the Central Plains, and Steward Li couldn't help but have some concerns.
Lang Ri seemed to realize something, and took out the pendant that Maochun gave him three years ago, "Please show him this." “
Steward Li fixed his eyes and saw that this thing was indeed owned by Mao Chun, "Please come in, the master is in the study, I'll call him." “
When Mao Chun excitedly led Xiu Yuan out, Lang Ri was in the hall with his back to the door admiring the antique and elegant layout.
"Langri," Mao Chun called out excitedly when he saw the familiar back.
Lang Ri turned his head, Xiu Yuan saw Lang Ri's clear and handsome face, and instantly understood why his father praised him so much, such a face is indeed worthy of all the good praise of justice in the world, Xiu Yuan couldn't help but smile at him kindly.
When Lang Ri saw the two of them, he also smiled lightly, "Brother Maochun, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Mao Chun greeted him and pulled Lang Ri's thick arm, "Fang A few days ago, I talked to the dog about you, who would have thought that you would come today, come, see you Brother Lang Ri, my father-in-law." Mao Chun couldn't hide his excitement, and turned around and called Xiuyuan.
Xiu Yuan stepped forward and saluted respectfully with his hands on his chest, "Brother Langri." ”
Lang Ri lifted Xiu Yuan, Xiu Yuan eyebrows are clear, handsome and fair-skinned, but he is tall and tall, quite the characteristics of Jiangnan men.
"Please, I'm a person who has no manners, I can't imagine that my eldest brother's son is so handsome, how old Xiuyuan is this year. ”
"Sixteen years old, who made me an old man. Mao Chun smiled and looked at Lang Ri, "Brother Lang Ri has been doing well in the past few years, have you found the person you are looking for?"
"Not yet," Lang Ri shook his head, and Mao Chun suddenly asked the crux of his heart, "Don't talk about this, how has the eldest brother been in good health in recent years?"
"The health is still good, but it is not as good as before," Mao Chun invited Lang Ri to take a seat, turned his head and instructed Xiu Yuan to prepare a good banquet to entertain Lang Ri.
As soon as Xiu Yuan came out of the hall, Mo Chou greeted him and asked Xiu Yuan, "Who is here?"
"Father's old friend and benefactor," Xiu Yuan and Mo Chou walked together, "treat him well at night." ”
Xiu Yuan's words aroused Mo Chou's curiosity, "I heard Steward Li say that he is a tall, handsome person who doesn't look like a person from the Central Plains. ”
"That's right, my father met him in the desert a few years ago, and he is not from the Central Plains. ”
For some reason, Mo Chou suddenly flashed the image of the person he bumped into on the street a few days ago, and muttered in his heart, could it be him?
When the answer was revealed in the evening, Mo Chou confirmed his thoughts, sure enough, it was the person he saw on the street, Mo Chou smiled at Lang Ri, not so much that what really attracted him was Lang Ri's outfit but rather that Lang Ri's unusual momentum on his body, that was the momentum of a demon hunter, with his many years of experience, Lang Ri should be a hidden demon hunter.
During dinner, Mao Chun and Lang Ri chatted about their respective experiences in recent years, and Lang Ri only understated his failure to find someone, and generally did not say much, and Mao Chun was not good to ask again. Lang Ri looked at Xiu Yuan and Mo Chou on the table, and asked if this was the future daughter-in-law of the Li family? Mao Chun and Wang glanced at each other, looked at each other and smiled, Mo Chou was also a little embarrassed to lower his head, she inadvertently glanced at it, Xiu Yuan raised the cup and drank a sip of water calmly, his expressionless face seemed to have not heard what everyone said, and he didn't put Lang Ri's words in his heart, Mo Chou couldn't help but be stunned, Xiu Yuan slowly put down the cup, and for a moment, Mo Chou felt that Xiu Yuan's expression was a little low.
Immediately Mo Chou was also depressed, she put down her chopsticks, she didn't eat anything during the period, Xiu Yuan has always been decent, in addition to taking care of the guest Lang Ri, he naturally will not snub Mo Chou next to him, he continued his thoughtfulness, and gave the dishes to Mo Chou, Mo Chou just nodded in the face of the dishes he put in the bowl. Xiu Yuan continued to smile at the dinner table, still gentle, this kind of moist man like ancient jade is really likable, Mo Chou looked at Xiu Yuan, picked up the chopsticks and said that nothing happened.
After dinner, Mao Chun arranged for Lang Ri to stay, Xiu Yuan led Lang Ri to the room arranged by his father, and as soon as he opened the door, Lang Ri smelled a faint sandalwood fragrance, "What kind of fragrance is this, I have only smelled it in the Central Plains." ”
"It's sandalwood, my father likes it very much, so it's all ordered in the room. ”
Lang Ri couldn't help but take two more sips, "Very good taste, most of the spices we have there are strong, and it is rare to have such a quiet smell." ”
"Brother Lang Ri likes it, I'll go get some sandalwood. Xiu Yuan smiled and sorted out the bedding for Langri.
Lang Ri stopped Xiuyuan, "It's too troublesome for you, don't be so polite." ”
"Big brother shouldn't be polite to me, I'm afraid that I will neglect my eldest brother in something inconsiderate. ”
Mo Chou pushed the door and walked in, "Steward Li said that the water is boiled, Brother Lang Ri has been in the dust all the way, let's sleep well after bathing, I will ask someone to bring the water in, and the eldest brother will bathe in the room or go to the bathroom?" He walked out.
Luo Yan lay on his side on the cold stone in the cave and played with his hair hanging down on his sides, the quiet cave was very compatible with a cold-blooded animal like a wolf.
Luo Bing walked in, "I'm really not worried at all when I look at your calm demeanor." ”
"If worrying can solve the problem, then we don't have to do anything, just worry about it together. Luo Yan always stared at his eyes, with a smiling expression, and a temperament that didn't care about anything.
"Seeing that the place you picked is not so hidden, do you expect that they will definitely not find us?"
"What I fancy is not whether this place is hidden or not, whether there is a fox demon here, or a nine-tailed fox demon. Luo Yan smiled. "The scent of a fox can mask our scent, and I never expect them to find us, but I wish it could be longer. ”
Luo Bing walked over and sat next to Luo Yan, "That nine-tailed fox demon, have you heard of it before?" Luo Yan continued to play with his hair, "I've heard of this kind of monster, the nine-tailed fox demon is originally extremely spiritual, and Long Buyun is even more so, if she hadn't practiced long enough, you and I wouldn't be her opponent." ”
"Is it so powerful?" Luo Bing scoffed.
"This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that this spiritual creature is very extreme, great good or great evil, her demonic nature is different from ordinary fox demons, it is not so easy to appear, but once there are signs, it is absolutely unacceptable. ”
"You know a lot. Luo Bing couldn't help but look at his younger brother with admiration.
"Rather than confined to the little bit of that the wolf clan has been fighting for the leader for generations, I'm still more interested in things from the outside world, such as this nine-tailed fox demon. Luo Yan couldn't help but smile.
"Then for you," Luo Bing suddenly approached and put it in Luo Yan's ear, "do you want this fox demon to be good or evil?"
Luo Yan turned his head to his sister's face that was almost the same as his own, and smiled, "It's not time yet." ”
Xiao Zhi didn't eat the pill, but spit it out again while she didn't pay attention, stuffed it into her arms and kept it.
At night, Xiao Zhi slept beside Bu Shao, and the moonlight outside the cave came in faintly, she turned her head to look at Mu Shu, "Sister, are you sleeping?"
Unswerved was woken up by her and opened her eyes, "Not yet, what's wrong?"
"What is the origin of those two wolf demons?" Xiao Zhi simply sat up.
Unsuckers also sat up, "They should be from the Northwest Wolf Clan. ”
"Northwest Wolf Clan?" Xiao Zhi asked, "Haven't you heard of it?"
"Wolves are social animals, and the Northwest Wolf Clan is a group of wolf demons gathered there, and this group of wolf demons does not enter the Central Plains, but only lives locally, so it is normal that you don't know them very well. ”
"And then, what are the characteristics of these wolves?"
"They are very irritable, they are also very powerful, they are full of ambition and possessiveness in their hearts, they eat people, kill people, and they are real monsters, so the locals are very afraid of them, and over time there are wolf slayers who fight against them, and they specialize in killing them. ”
"Wolf Slayer?" Xiao Zhi raised his voice.
"But unfortunately, five years ago, this clan was wiped out, and I don't know what happened. ”
"What about the wolf clan now?" Xiao Zhi continued to ask, "Why did the male wolf say that they have nothing to do with the wolf clan during the day today?"
"I don't know, I don't know what they're here for, and to be honest, I'd like to see them just find a place to stay and leave here one day. Unswerving's heart was slightly tight, and she had a bad premonition.
"That she-wolf is really powerful, I felt that it was over when I was overwhelmed by her, it was too strong, I couldn't defeat her at all. ”
Unswerving touched Xiao Zhi's hair comfortingly, "We are indeed not their opponents, so no matter what happens in the future, we can't fight them head-on, so as not to suffer losses, understand?"
Xiao Zhi nodded, "Then what should we do now?" Bu Shi let out a sigh, "Wait and see, sleep, it's late at night." Compared with Xiao Zhi, Unswerving always looks calm and unfazed.
"Sister," Xiao Zhi looked at the lying down, "when will I become like you?"
Bu Shi tilted his head slightly, "You're very good now, very cute, straightforward." ”
Xiao Zhi smiled, then lay down, turned his back to Unswerving, slowly moved his hand to his chest, touched the pill that was stored there, and smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth unconsciously.
Lang Ri came out of the bath, and the hot water washed away his dust and brought him the comfort of home, which Lang Ri had not felt like this kind of home for a long time.
As soon as he went out, he saw Xiu Yuan waiting for him outside with a clean Rob's underwear in his hand.
"Xiuyuan?" Lang Ri was stunned for a moment, "Why are you here?"
"I got you a clean change of clothes, and you can sleep comfortably in it. Xiu Yuan smiled gently.
Lang Ri has a very good impression of Maochun's son, he took the clothes in Xiuyuan's hand and scratched his head embarrassedly, the clothes were actually warm, "I'm bothering you again." ”
"Big brother always says such outrageous things. Xiu Yuan and Lang Ri walked towards the room. When he got to the door, he didn't go in, "Big brother must be tired, rest early, I won't bother big brother." ”
Lang Ri nodded, "Okay, you can go back and rest early." ”
Xiu Yuan came back from Lang Ri and went back to the room directly, Mo Chou was at the door, "Mo Chou, you haven't slept so late?"
"yes, I'm waiting for you. Mo Chou greeted him when he saw Xiu Yuan coming back.
"Silly girl, why don't you go in?" Xiu Yuan opened the door, and the two of them walked in.
"I guess you're not here, and there's no point in going in. ”
"What's wrong, doesn't you seem to be in high spirits?" Xiu Yuan teased her.
"No, I'm fine. Mo Chou pursed his lips and smiled, "It's because you're not in high spirits about cultivating your fate, right?" ”
Xiu Yuan was stunned for a moment when she said it, and he turned to look at Mo Chou, "How can it be, don't guess, I'm fine." ”
Mo Chou is sensitive like a fawn, this girl who usually looks like she is usually very smug is actually thoughtful.
"Are you tired?" Xiu Yuan looked back as if he suddenly realized something, "I felt that you didn't look right during the banquet just now, isn't it sick?" ”
Mo Chou suddenly smiled, Xiu Yuan is really Xiu Yuan, she shook her head, "Then I will go to sleep too, I really feel tired when you say it." Mo Chou yawned.
Xiu Yuan's eyes were still uneasy, Mo Chou patted him on the shoulder, "I'm really fine, look at your uneasy look, let's go." Saying that, he walked out of his room, and at the moment the door closed, Mo Chou let out a sigh of relief, and the depressed expression of Xiu Yuan during the banquet flashed in his mind again.
