Chapter 100: Habits carved into the bone marrow
Feng Xi saw the person who came out of the bamboo forest, and his eyebrows gradually cooled.
It was a man in a blue shirt with a delicate cage and a cheerful bird in it. Feng Xi also reacted, the bird cry that had just broken the silence might be the bird in front of him.
After the man approached, Feng Xi said coldly, "Why are you?"
When the man heard the voice, he paused invisibly, but he only lowered his head and teased the spirit bird in the cage, and did not answer.
Feng Xi looked at him for a while, looking insignificant, and finally impatient.
But he seemed to do it on purpose, because Feng Xi wanted to go out, so he had to pass through the green bamboo forest behind him.
And yet he stood there with all his composure, not at all looking like he was going to walk away.
Feng Xi frowned, wanting to get past him.
The last thing she wants to see now is the man in front of her. Doing their own way is what she hopes for the most.
However, just as she was about to pass by him, a white hand suddenly stopped in front of her.
"And who do you hope it is?"
Shen Yan's face, which didn't have much expression, pulled out a trace of ridicule like this, and looked straight at Feng Xi, as if he wanted to see her thoroughly.
What did she mean by that?
It sounded to him as if she wasn't expecting him at all.
But Shen Yan seemed to have forgotten that the current Fengxi was the Fengxi who remembered everything, not the one he met at the foot of Guixi Mountain before.
Feng Xi was inexplicably asked by his sudden words, she is now about to become a wanderer scattered all over the world, who can expect to come to her?
"What do you mean?"
Looking at Feng Xi's puzzled look, Shen Yan tried his best to restrain his emotions, and laughed angrily, "I thought Bai Luoqing told you to let you come to me." β
Feng Xi seemed to suddenly understand something.
How could he know that Qingqing asked her to come to him? If there was no secret plot between the two of them, Feng Xi would not believe it.
She knew it, so she looked back at the man, and didn't say anything more, but just looked at him steadily.
Feng Xi's tone is not very good, after all, she is no longer the girl who is desperate for love.
No, not love, at most...... It's just that I like it.
Suddenly, he remembered that before, Feng Xi's face seemed to be more and more gloomy.
Looking at Feng Xi's fiery eyes, it was obvious that he should be angry, but now he felt uncomfortable as if she had seen through some secret.
Shen Yan was in a trance for a moment, and he suddenly wondered, was he wrong again?
She may have been a simple sentence, but he was mistaken for the person in the Demon Realm.
The words of apology stuck in his throat, as if he had waited for a long time, and he didn't say anything in the end.
The red-feathered blue-bodied bird in the cage seemed to finally be unable to stand it, and the little head looked at Shen Yan's side, and then at Fengxi, and suddenly, it began to jump left and right and began to scream.
Shen Yan was startled by the movement of the bird, hurriedly lowered his head, patted the birdcage, and said with some resentment: "Why are you hungry again so soon!"
However, Feng Xi and the bird couldn't understand Shen Yan's heart. What he thought at this time was that fortunately, someone broke the embarrassing dullness first, although it was not him, nor Feng Xi.
The little bird looked at his angry red eyes, and suddenly lost the presumptuousness just now, and watched him cry out twice aggrievedly, which made people can't help but want to love.
Feng Xi suddenly became interested, and glanced at the little little dot in the cage, not knowing whether he was talking to the little bird or mocking Shen Yan.
She said: "Fortunately, it is still a bird, if it takes on a human form, it will definitely be the same as your master, a seductive embryo with no conscience!"
The corners of Shen Yan's eyes twitched, isn't this sentence just talking about him? No conscience...... If he really had no conscience, he wouldn't have been pestering her from Guixi Mountain, to the Demon Realm, and here.
Shen Yan wanted to refute, but he had the heart but no courage, so he echoed, "Yes, yes, I have no conscience, I have the most conscience!"
It seems that only in the face of Feng Xi, his face that has been frozen for many years will have a different feeling.
Feng Xi raised her head, and inadvertently met those tender eyes, and her heart was shocked, this was Shen Yan that she had never seen before.
Feng Xi turned her head a little awkwardly and didn't look at him, "Can you ...... Don't smile at me. β
After Shen Yan heard this, his laughter became more and more rampant, and he deliberately walked in front of her and showed her a bright smile.
"Why? Didn't you like to laugh at me before? Now you can look at me however you want, and I'll only smile at you in the future. β
Shen Yan said facelessly, not at all like the high-ranking and invincible god of war in the world's mouth.
Seeing him walk around in front of her, Feng Xi quickly turned her head to the other side again, and then moved to her eyes with heavy eyes......
The two of them went back and forth like this, and it seemed that the cold atmosphere just now was just a passing of water, and they didn't think so.
Shen Yan didn't force her to look at him, he just kept changing, trying every way to make Feng Xi see him again.
This is the most useful thing he has learned in this life.
In the mountains, the two are like two childish children, happily playing this game of "you come and go".
The spirit bird also seemed to feel the cheerfulness in the atmosphere, and looked at the two naΓ―ve people, and also followed the "chirp" and became happy.
Feng Xi and Shen Yan, at that moment, inexplicably had a tacit understanding.
The two of them bowed their heads at the same time, making a fierce look, and blurted out at the same time, "What is your name!"
Looking at the jackal, tiger and leopard overhead, before the cry of "chirp" was finished, the little spirit bird stopped abruptly, and the two little wings covered their small beaks, their eyes widened, and they looked at the two of them helplessly.
The two were also stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other. You have me, I have you, they just looked at each other and laughed silently.
However, in an embarrassing moment, there will always be a bad sound.
For example, now, in this temporary period of quietness, "Goo-", Feng Xi's stomach suddenly howled loudly.
This sound brought the thoughts of the two back to the present, no matter how thick-skinned Rao is Fengxi was, he couldn't help blushing when he was hungry at this time.
However, Shen Yan didn't make a little disgust, but asked her softly, "Hungry?"
Feng Xi looked at the infinitely gentle man, swallowed his saliva, and nodded.
From the time Bai Luoqing drove her out until now, she hadn't eaten a bit.
Shen Yan looked at the cage in his hand and said with a wicked smile: "How about eating roast birds?"
Feng Xi was already a little hungry and couldn't think, and when she heard that there was food, no matter what it was, she nodded indiscriminately.
Unexpectedly, when she just agreed, an earth-shattering cry came out of Shen Yan's hand, which frightened Feng Xi and instantly sobered up most of the time.
Shen Yan looked at her stunned and smiled at the spirit bird, "Teasing you." β
However, he turned his head to look at Feng Xi and said with concern: "Feng Xi, if you hold on for a while, I will take you here to eat delicious food." β
He couldn't sleep, and he was nervous just now when he looked at her eyes that were about to close.
He was afraid that she would never wake up again if she fell asleep.
He knew he was just a little hungry and sleepy, but he was just afraid to look at her silently.
He doesn't want to be like he was before, like he lost the whole world.
Shen Yan summoned a cloud in the sky and carried the two of them, but after a while, they returned to the bustling mortal bazaar.
Feng Xi recognized it half-asleep and half-awake that this was the place where she and Ji Qingfeng had come before.
At that time, they also did "bad things", and by means of magic, they confused the vendor who sold sugar gourds, and they took several large strings of sugar gourds from him for nothing.
In retrospect, there is still a feeling that things are wrong.
Shen Yan helped her and walked all the way into the most luxurious inn in this place.
Looking at the valuable outfits of the two, the shopkeeper was extremely enthusiastic.
However, Shen Yan only cared about Fengxi's safety, and didn't even glance at the price, and directly asked for the specialties in this store.
Feng Xi saw that he was so luxurious, and thought of the trick of "deceiving people" that day.
Although she doesn't like mortals, she also feels that they are pitiful, she has lived a lifetime, and she should not be deceived if she does something small business that does not steal or rob.
In a daze, he suddenly grabbed his arm.
Shen Yan looked at her squirming pale lips, as if he had something to say, he leaned his ear closer, and only then did he hear Feng Xi's voice.
"No...... Don't waste it so much, I ...... I don't have any money...... Don't lie...... They ......"
Although Feng Xi's words were intermittent, Shen Yan also pieced together her meaning in the end.
She wanted him not to use spells to cheat and drink.
Shen Yan smiled comfortingly, "Don't worry, I have money." β
"Where did you get the money?"
Feng Xi vaguely remembered that the currency of the Nine Heavens seemed to be incompatible with the human world, and Rao was no matter how rich he was in the Nine Heavens, he should not have the coins of the human world.
Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, and replied a little embarrassedly, "It's just...... Not yet. β
Hearing that he didn't guarantee at all, Feng Xi's hand increased some strength, she was so hungry that she had no strength, so she could only signal him with such a small action.
However, Shen Yan smiled lightly, "Don't worry, it'll be there in a while, I used to be a business wizard." β
Feng Xi naturally didn't believe this boastful and arrogant words, but when he heard his assurance, he unconsciously calmed down.
Believing in him unreservedly seems to have never changed, like a habit of hers, engraved into the bone marrow.
Shen Yan raised her eyebrows, as if she didn't seem to believe her directly.
So he asked, "Do you believe me?"
This time it was Feng Xi's turn to smile helplessly, she believed him, no matter what he said or did, she would believe him.
What is there to doubt? This has long been a constant habit of hers.
What can make him wonder, in the end, is that he doesn't believe her.
"Yes," Feng Xi suddenly felt so tired, closed her eyes, and didn't fall asleep in the end, just because Shen Yan said that he wanted to take her to eat delicious food, so she couldn't sleep.
"I believe in you, and I have always believed in you. β
Feng Xi said this sentence weakly, regardless of whether Shen Yanxiang believed it or not.
However, the man in the aqua blue shirt looked at her with a somewhat erratic look in his eyes, but in the end he didn't say anything.
