Chapter 20: Goodbye Beast

Chu Anxin tilted his head slightly, revealing his fair and slender neck, raised his hand to pull the hair that was not scattered, twisted his slender waist and walked over, stretched out his hand and pinched Tang Zixi's cheek, and praised him: "It turns out that our eldest Miss Tang is eleven years old, and she is a big girl, it's time to find her mother-in-law, right?" Look at these eyebrows, I don't know how many sons and sisters I want to charm, don't let the threshold of our Tang Mansion be broken by the people who ask for marriage! Oh, by the way, I heard that my uncle has already helped you find a good gentleman!" After that, he glanced at Su Jing intentionally or unintentionally, and when he saw that he was looking away, as if he hadn't heard it, he couldn't help but smile even more.

When Tang Zixi heard this, he couldn't help but blush, took two steps back quietly, dodged Chu Anxin's hand, and tidied up his clothes indiscriminately, and then said lightly: "Cousin Anxin, don't make fun of Zixi, whether it is appearance or temperament, who can compare to you, the first beauty in Suzhou." If nothing else, Zixi will go first!"

Chu Anxin glanced at Su Jing, who had a faint look in his eyes, smiled, and didn't dwell on this topic anymore.

Tang Zixi glanced at Su Jing with slanted eyes, and raised his chin towards the finch.

Su Jing waved his hand and unlocked the bird's acupoint.

Que'er hurriedly bowed her knees: "The slave and maid Que'er have seen Young Master Jing and the county lord!"

Su Jing responded lightly, but it was rare to say a word: "Look at Miss well!" looked up and saw Tang Zixi's unconvinced look, and added, "Don't let Miss be disobedient, if she is disobedient, tell me!"

Que'er didn't dare to respond casually now, and hesitantly glanced at Miss Tang with a black face, and saw that she was glaring at her fiercely, her heart suddenly suddenly, and she quickly replied: "The slave will definitely take good care of Miss, and will never let Miss bump into it." ”

"Your name is Que'er?" Chu Anxin glanced at Que'er curiously, and saw that the little girl with a bun was quite clever, and asked casually.

"Back to the county lord, yes, it is the name given by the old lady!" Que'er hurriedly replied, this 'female devil' who often bullied the young lady, she had marked the key points in the pamphlet, and if she caused trouble for the young lady because of her neglect, it would be really bad.

"Oh, is it?!" Chu Anxin said in surprise.

She couldn't help but be surprised, the maids in the Tang Mansion all have strict hierarchical divisions, and those who can let the old lady give their names can at least belong to the ranks of the big maids in the mansion. Now the personal girl next to her cousin was actually given to her by the old lady, so ......

Thinking of this, she smiled and said, "This little girl is interesting and clever." Anyway, I'm going to stay here for a while this time, so let me call for a few days!"

"Ah......" Que'er was dumbfounded when she heard this, but she didn't dare to refuse, so she had to look at Tang Zixi pitifully.

"What?" Chu Anxin saw the girl's expression, and became more interested, and said deliberately, "You don't want to?" After speaking, he took a step forward gently, so frightened that the finch tensed up and didn't dare to move.

"Wait!" Tang Zixi knew that Chu Anxin had always been able to do what he said, so he hurriedly refused, "I'm sorry cousin, Zixi is used to serving birds." My grandmother and my mother were still waiting for me in the front hall, so I went first. ”

For fear that Chu Anxin would make some strange requests, as soon as she finished speaking, she pulled up the finch and saluted indiscriminately, and the master and servant ran into the front hall quickly, only to hear Chu Anxin's crisp laughter behind her.

The laughter grew louder and stranger, until finally it became the roar of a beast.

Tang Zixi broke out in a cold sweat, opened her eyes, and found herself lying on a shoal, the faint light came from nowhere, so that she could barely make out that there was an extremely wide underground river in front of her.

The river was dark and calm, and with the little fluorescent light floating on the surface of the river, you could see it meandering into the depths of darkness, not knowing where it was going. The stone stalactites hanging down above are in a variety of shapes, or sharp as a knife, or round as jade.

She lay weakly on the shallows, stunned by the flying fluorescents. At this moment, she had already remembered that she was saved by the ghost slave before she fell unconscious, but she didn't know anything about what happened after she passed out.

Why did you get here from the stone chamber? What is this place? Where did the ghost slave go? What was the last splash coming from? What about the two old men?

......

The more she thought about it, the more she felt a headache, and her mouth was very thirsty, and as soon as her lips moved, there was a tearing pain, and she didn't need to look at it, she knew that her lips were full of blood. Looking at the calm and deep underground river, she involuntarily made a swallowing motion, but there was no saliva, and her throat was already smoking.

With her left elbow on the ground, she slowly crawled towards the river, trying to keep her body steady. Otherwise, the right arm that was almost torn, and the broken bones in it could be rubbed slightly, which would make her doubt her life.

Even if she was careful again and again, she tried to be as stable as possible, but she accidentally pulled the injury several times, climbed down a few feet away, and the whole person was as if she had just been fished out of the water. As soon as her body was soaked in sweat, she realized that she was covered with wounds all over her body, and there was a hot pain everywhere.

Fortunately, she was already at the edge of the river, she lifted the long hair next to her cheeks, stretched her neck, and put her chapped lips into the river. As soon as she came into contact with the cool water, she felt refreshed, took a long breath, and plunged headlong into it. I only heard the sound of 'coo-too', and the thirsty Miss Tang swallowed the sweet and cool river water without caring about her image.

When she was finally full, she raised her head and let out a long, contented breath.

The water on the shore was shallow and clear, and she could see the round stones at the bottom of the river. One of them, a faintly glowing stone, caught her attention.

She reached out and scooped up the stone. I looked at it carefully and was pleasantly surprised to find that this was actually a night pearl. It was a little smaller than the one she had given to the ghost slave before, and it was a faint yellow. The most peculiar thing is that there seems to be liquid flowing inside, which looks brilliant and beautiful.

If the ghost slave saw it, she would love it! She held it in her hand and looked at it over and over again, forgetting her physical discomfort for a moment.

"Ho!

A familiar voice sounded behind itself.

Tang Zixi came back to his senses, turned his head with a smile, and sure enough, he saw a tall figure, shaking a ball of fluorescence, striding towards this side.

The hairy body, fanged lips, such striking features, make people want to ignore it.

At this moment, Tang Zixi no longer felt that his appearance was terrible, but felt extraordinarily kind! His heart was full of joy - the ghost slave was still alive!

She proudly raised the bead in her hand and shook it at the ghost slave who was striding over. The faint fluorescence immediately attracted the attention of the ghost slave, and he happily let out a 'ho-ho' sound, and also raised the bead in his hand and gestured to her!

So, on the edge of the bed of this dark underground river, there was a very strange scene, a girl covered in blood, and a monster-like humanoid figure covered in long hair, each holding up the bead in his hand - giggle!

Suddenly, a small black shadow came out from one side and rushed towards the ghost slave.

Tang Zixi couldn't help but exclaim, and before he could remind him, he saw the tall body of the ghost slave, flashing flexibly, avoiding the attack of the black shadow. Unbeknownst to him, the black shadow reacted extremely quickly, turned around in mid-air, and pounced towards the ghost slave again.

I don't know if the speed of the little black shadow is too fast, or if the ghost slave is slow to react. Tang Zixi blinked, and he heard the roar of the ghost slave. Obviously hurt!

Twitter –

This voice is so familiar!

Tang Zixi tried to identify the little black shadow with the fluorescence in the ghost slave's hand, and the fluffy tail quickly caught her attention.

Sure enough, it was!

Once the target was confirmed, Miss Tang was immediately angry. She really couldn't figure out why it just wouldn't let go of itself. She saw it well-behaved and cute before, and she liked it very much, but she didn't think of it in the end, but it was the ghost slave who scared her at the beginning and saved herself at a critical moment.

It seems that not only people cannot be disguised, but also animals!

Miss Tang struggled to get up, tore off the torn shirt on her arm, and fixed her right arm a little with severe pain, at least not letting it swing around.

After doing this, she turned her head to look around, but she didn't find the weapon in her hand, but the roar of the ghost slave over there became more and more frequent, she didn't have time to think about it, grabbed a small stone, aimed at the small black shadow, and threw it out with a whoosh.

The little beast's sense of hearing is extremely sensitive, and at the moment when the stone touches its body, it flashes flexibly and avoids it. The stone was unobstructed, hitting the fangs of the ghost slave turned out, making a 'bang' sound, like metal colliding.

One big and one small, Qi Qi was stunned for a moment, looked in the direction where the stone was flying, and found Miss Tang who was also standing in place awkwardly.

Seeing that it was her, the ghost slave grinned, and immediately waved his fist without caring and attacked the little beast again.

It was the little beast, when he was dodging, he chirped at Tang Zixi twice, and there was a trace of grievance in that voice.

The two are scuffling together again!

Hearing the ghost slave roaring again and again, Tang Zixi thought about it, squatted down again, picked up a stone, and walked towards the war group.
