Chapter 16: She's Just a Child
Ning Xi was a little moved, she really needed the Spirit Fruit now.
After all, the Yun Ling Fruit she obtained could help her quickly break through her cultivation and save a lot of time.
Moreover, they were only dealing with two first-grade high-grade demon beasts on the periphery of Ten Thousand Cave Mountain, and their strength was equivalent to that of a ninth-level cultivator of human qi.
If several people join forces, there is a great certainty that they will succeed.
In terms of pros and cons, it is not impossible to take a little risk on a trip to Wangu Mountain. This cooperation is worth it.
"Brother Kui, why are you looking for me when you go to Wanguo Mountain? I believe that there should be more people in the sect than me. Ning Xi thought for a moment, and was a little puzzled.
"Well, firstly, I saw that Brother Ning's strength was not bad, and his cultivation was not much different from that of a few of us, which was enough to deal with those two first-grade demon beasts.
When the time comes, the distribution of the spirit fruit will be easy for a few of us, if we ask the senior brother of Gao Xiuwei for help, it is difficult to say how much the spirit fruit we get will be distributed to them.
Second, I met Brother Ning before, and I felt that Brother Ning was worth befriending, and no one was more suitable than Brother Ning. ”
Hearing Ning Xi ask, Kui Wei first smiled honestly, said his careful thoughts, and finally said it very sincerely.
"Since Brother Kui sincerely invited, I will no longer shirk it, I am willing to join this trip to Wanguo Mountain, when will Brother Kui leave?"
Ning Xi pondered for a moment and then agreed, and when Chen Yun and Kui Wei saw this, their faces showed joy.
"I still have to prepare some things in the next few days, Brother Ning can go to Laifu Restaurant early in the morning after five days, and a few of us will meet there. Kui Wei arranged.
After accepting Kui Wei's invitation, Ning Xi went back.
......
When night falls, the blurry moon falls smoothly to the treetops, glowing with a faint glow, as if draped in a dreamlike silver-white veil.
In the study, under the warm yellow candlelight, it is dazzling and bright.
Ning Xi paced back and forth, still thinking about going to Wanguo Mountain.
Suddenly, a fresh breeze blew outside the window, and the candle flame began to flicker softly again, causing the room to flicker and darken.
Ning Xi, who was still thinking about it a moment ago, suddenly became alert.
Because she felt a hint of movement coming from the window.
Raising her guard and coming to the window, her bright eyes couldn't help but sweep out.
I didn't see anything in front of me except the "rustling" trees swaying under the bright moonlight.
Is it his own delusion? Ning Xi's eyes flashed, and her eyebrows twisted slightly.
"It's getting late, it's time to rest. ”
Ning Xi muttered to herself, a little tired in her voice.
She came to the candle flame and gently blew out the fire, and the study fell into darkness.
After a while, there was an even sound of breathing in the study.
At this moment, by the faint moonlight, a small shadow could be seen, like a clever kitten outside the window, rushing in without a sound.
Not far away, on the side of the screen, Ning Xi's eyes emitted a sharp light, and he was silently watching everything around him.
The little shadow was very light, as if in a no-man's land, and at the same time it was also very alert, and when it came to the house, it did not rush to act immediately.
Instead, the cat squatted down, first looked around, and then looked in the direction of the couch.
Raising his hand, a small crimson fly flew silently in the direction of the tent.
Yes, and a little clever.
The small movements of the little shadow were in full view, and Ning Xi, who was hiding in the shadows, pursed her lips and smiled.
When the fly sank into the tent, the little shadow immediately realized that something was wrong.
As soon as he got up and wanted to escape from the window, he was stunned and didn't know when he was standing in the direction of the window.
"Whoa..."
The bright candle flame was lit, and the warm yellow candlelight gathered, and Ning Xi saw the face of the little shadow shrouded in light, a little panicked.
It was a little girl, about eight or nine years old, with a delicately embroidered skirt and a satin embroidery on the edges, and a knee-length pleated skirt, and a finely inlaid lace belt adorned with silver flakes, silver flowers, sparkling and fluttering, and exquisitely bright.
A delicate and fair face, curved eyebrows, small nose, a pair of eyes as clear as a spring, the water is turning smartly, combed up delicate buns, the lilac bow tied up by the ribbon, indescribably petite and cute.
"Yikes!"
The candle flame in the room suddenly lit up, so that the little girl's figure could not be hidden, and she could not help but cry out in surprise.
Looking at Ning Xi in front of her, blocking her way out, her body couldn't help but staggered back a few steps, her panicked eyes aimed to the side, trying to find another way out.
"Little girl, what are you doing in my room at night?"
Staring at the little girl who broke into the study, Ning Xi was a little stunned, but looking at the other party's small appearance, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he asked.
Hearing Ning Xi's question, the little girl stood still proudly, and her little face was a little less flustered.
Under the slightly upturned eyelashes, the flickering eyeballs are like crystal clear dew drops on lotus leaves, dripping and turning.
"I ...... I'm here to play. ”
A crisp and immature voice first paused, and then replied very "innocently".
Ning Xi was stunned for a moment, she couldn't imagine that this little guy would answer like this, to fool her, could she not be treated as a three-year-old child?
This little creature sneaks around at night and comes to her study, surely with some purpose.
She wouldn't let go of this little guy until she figured it out, even if he was just a child.
"Little girl, this is not a place for you to play casually. Ning Xi smiled suddenly.
"Hmph, it's so stingy, since you can't play, then I'll go. ”
The little girl cocked her little nose, snorted, as if she was really dissatisfied, and walked in the direction of the door.
In this case, this little guy can still pretend to be like no one else, making Ning Xi feel that he has really met a little opponent.
Although the other party was a child, Ning Xi was not careless, she was ready to catch the other party at any time.
Don't look at the little girl in front of her walking towards the door by herself, but she has a pair of bright eyes, and she secretly glances at the window from time to time, and her expression is faintly vigilant.
And this kind of little cunning still can't hide from Ning Xi's eyes.
Ning Xi knew that this little guy must have expected that he would not let her go, and he would definitely make a move, and she would find the right time to escape when she made a move.
Then let's see what this little guy has to do, she doesn't believe that the other party is just an ordinary child.
"Okay, you thief who came to steal something, and you want to escape?"
Ning Xi immediately took a few steps forward, and deliberately shouted while stretching out his hand to intercept the little girl's retreat.
"I... I'm not a thief, you're a thief, I'm just taking back my Gu worm. ”
Seeing that the back road was intercepted, the little girl's figure flashed, and at the same time, a childish voice came out of her mouth, and she defended indignantly.
These two words made Ning Xi's heart move, and his shining eyes narrowed slightly.
(...... Good night everyone, don't forget to vote when you go to bed, today I counted about ten people who have voted, although the free recommendation vote is just a data for the book, so that the writing looks better, but as an author, I still care about this kind of virtual data, because this is your recognition and encouragement to me, it can be said that it is the vanity that I want in my heart, and strive to one day the number of voters can exceed 100 people. )
