The smell of barbecue wafted out, and the demon lion who was squatting at the gate of the courtyard cried greedily, and Xiao Hai was punished to go to the mountain to chop wood, and he has not come back yet.

Xiaozhi finished gnawing a rabbit leg, took another sip of plum wine, and stretched happily, this day, it is really fucking comfortable.

But she soon became sad again, she lay on the stone table, looked at Lu Qi, who was sitting on a small bench and was busy roasting another hare, and asked, "Little pity, are you really dying?"

Lu Qi's hand paused slightly, then picked up a dead branch from the ground and threw it into the fire, looked at the sudden fire, and said with a smile: "Yes." ”

"Don't be afraid, I have ghosts I know in the underworld, I say hello to them, and I won't let you be bullied. ”

"Little branch......" Lu Qi raised his head, "I'm afraid I won't go to the underworld." ”

"And where are you going?"

"If you don't go anywhere, you will return to the dust of this Acacia Mountain. ”

"And can I still see you?"

"I don't know, maybe after a thousand years, we will be able to meet again. ”

"It's been so long, how will I know that person is you?" Xiao Zhi took the rabbit leg handed over by Lu Qi and took a big bite sadly.

Lu Qi took a handkerchief to wipe the oil stains from the corners of her mouth, held her hand on the stone table, his hand was warm by the fire, his eyes were also hot, he said: "At that time, I only need to hold your hand, and I will recognize you." ”

"It's all my nonsense. Xiaozhi hurriedly said, at that time in the underworld, she couldn't bear to see Xiao Pian sad, and made up such a thought for him.

Lu Qi smiled and said, "Then how did you recognize me just now?"

"I can't tell, I woke up, I saw a person lying next to me, very good-looking, I couldn't help but touch it, this touch, I found that you are pitiful. Twig frowned.

"So, you're not talking nonsense, when I took your hand, I guessed that you were a twig. Lu Qi held Xiaozhi's hand harder, and said, "So, no matter how many years it takes, I will definitely recognize you." ”

"I just met you, and I don't want to be separated from you. "Twigs play tricks.

"If you miss me, just look at the red bean in the palm of your hand, as long as this red bean is still there, I will definitely come back. Lu Qi opened the palm of the twig, and there was a small red bean embedded there, which was very cute.

Xiaozhi stared at the red bean for a while, then fixed his gaze on Lu Qi's face, reached out and pinched it, rubbed it, rubbed it again, pouted, and said, "But I prefer you who are alive and warm." ”

"Twig ......"

"Didn't you say that when my remnant soul returned to that broken bell, I would be able to come out?

"It's useless, my current body has run out of oil and dried up, even if I refill those cultivations, it's like a bamboo basket holding water, and I can't hold it. ”

"Is there no other way?" The little branch that Qingsi conjured up had no human memory, she only remembered the little pity in the underworld three thousand years ago, but for some reason, when she learned that Lu Qi was about to leave her, her heart was so painful that she twitched, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.

Lu Qi's eyes were also red, "I have no regrets about seeing you again before I die." ”

Xiaozhi threw the oily rabbit leg and threw himself into Lu Qi's arms, rubbing his hands full of oil on the clothes behind him, and snot and tears on his neck.

Lu Qi was originally sitting on a small bench, but when she pounced, both of them rolled to the ground, raising a thin layer of dust.

Lu Qi snorted, thinking that it was a fall.

"At that time, I was in the underworld, and I looked for you for a long time. Twig choked.

"I'm sorry. Lu Qi also choked.

......

Xiao Peng and Du Ruo rushed to Acacia Mountain that afternoon, Du Ruo looked at the eight or nine-year-old boy next to him, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

Xiao Peng really turned into the stinky boy who returned to Longshan, and she was very persistent in this matter.

Du Ruo wants to cry without tears, when Xiaozhi comes back, will Xiaopeng always live with this appearance? You say that she is a girl like a flower and jade, why do you have to get along with yourself?

Xiao Peng just wanted Xiao Zhi to see, it was the Xiao Peng she was familiar with, and Xiao Zhi was familiar with the little boy on Huilong Mountain, her younger brother who had lived with her for 3,000 years, not what she was.

But when she appeared in the courtyard on the top of Acacia Mountain, she saw Xiaozhi and the little fox demon laughing and playing, but she was unfamiliar with her, and she was very sad in her heart.

Although he knew that the twig in front of him was just a wisp of green silk and he didn't remember anything dusty, Xiao Peng still couldn't convince himself.

It's like my sister has been snatched away.

Du Ruo won't understand this feeling, and Xiaozhi won't understand either, Xiaopeng sat on the steps in front of the porch, watching Xiaozhi and the little fox demon play in the yard, and his heart was sullen.

Carefully ran up to her and said, "Brother, come and play with us." ”

Xiao Peng looked at the little fox demon with a red face, rolled his eyes, and said, "Childish." ”

Be careful: "......"

The demon lion jumped down from the courtyard wall and yelled at Xiao Peng, "You are not allowed to bully and be careful. ”

"Stinky lion, get out of here. Xiao Peng lazily waved his hand, and the magic lion was fanned out of the yard by a strong force, and he didn't know where he rolled to.

Be careful to be so frightened that you scream and rush out of the courtyard.

Du Ruo and Lu Qi sat on the stone bench and shook their heads, this yard is really noisy.

"You mean, Li Hengzhi is still alive, and he is now hiding in a certain immortal monarch?" Du Ruo said in surprise.

Lu Qi took a sip of tea and said, "Yes, it's useless for Nanzhu Demon to snatch the remnant soul of the twig, but I don't understand why Li Hengzhi wants the remnant soul of the twig?"

"Three thousand years ago in Xueyou Mountain, Li Hengzhi almost killed Xiaozhi, if he was still alive and knew that Xiaozhi was still alive, he naturally wanted to kill her again. Du Ruo remembered that past, and his face was covered with frost.

"But I always feel that things are not so simple, Li Hengzhi has colluded with Nanzhu Demon for ten years, or even earlier, when I was in the wild bee village, the Snow Bird Demon caught my mother, and wanted to lead my father into the trap set by the Nanzhu Demon, it can be seen that the Snow Bird Demon is also involved with them. ”

When Lu Qi said this, he remembered one more thing, he pondered for a while, and said: "Late at night on the seventh day of the seventh month of July, I was in the ten-mile spring breeze in Baihua City, and I bumped into a demon, when he joined forces with those demon girls, he killed the mortals of the entire ten-mile spring breeze, but the demon did not show his true face, he saw me, and he didn't love fighting, and he escaped after a few rounds of fighting with me, and now that I think about it, he is very likely to be the Nanzhu demon." ”

"Baihua City?" Du Ruo sat up straight, and said with a serious expression: "I just came from Dushuo Mountain, I heard that on August 15, there were female ghosts in Baihua City who made a disturbance, stirring up the city's storms, and then the female ghost was brought back to Dushuo Mountain by the Ghost Emperor, so it didn't cause the tragic situation of being slaughtered in the city, you say, will the female ghost also have a relationship with Li Hengzhi?"

"If that's the case, wouldn't all walks of life have Li Hengzhi's eyes and ears?

"If he just wants to cause disputes from all walks of life, then his goal has been achieved, but why does he want to find the remnant soul of Xiaozhi? Does he want Xiaozhi to be trapped in the jade bell on the other side forever, or is there some other conspiracy?"
