Chapter 619: Xiaolongbao
The two of them opened their eyes, and they saw the sun that had just jumped out of the horizon in the east, and it was leaping upwards little by little, and as the sun jumped more and more out of the earth, the sky became brighter and brighter, and a new day began.
"Is it morning?" said Aoba, stretching.
"Yes, it's morning!" said the nine-tailed demon fox, who had just sat up from the state of leaning on Aoba, with some emotion.
"Thank you to your daughter Red, and thank you for your beautiful performance as always. Aoba patted the empty wine jar beside him and said with a smile.
"It's good that Aoba-kun likes it. The nine-tailed demon fox looked at Aoba with a smile on his face.
"It's dawn, let's go back!" Aoba said, standing up and looking at the nine-tailed demon fox.
"Yes, it's time to go back, it's a new day, and I still have some work to deal with over there!" said the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox as well.
"Is there any work that requires you to come forward in person?" Aoba puzzled, after all, normally speaking of people at the level of the nine-tailed demon fox, the meaning of existence is basically similar to nuclear weapons, and the meaning of deterrence is even greater, and there should not be much ordinary work, and even if there is, it will be handled by the subordinates below.
"Although there are very few, there are still some, especially since I just returned to the Land of Trials, and I have accumulated half a year's work, even if it is very little, it will take a few days to get it right!" The nine-tailed demon fox shrugged his shoulders and said, then looked at Aoba and asked, "Speaking of which, Aoba-kun, do you plan to continue to pretend to be an ordinary newcomer like this and accept the trial?"
"No, the trial is still over, I was just curious about this place, so I came to see it, but I didn't expect to meet you! So all the mysteries were solved at once, and I didn't have much interest in here, I plan to stay here for a few days and go back." Aoba thought for a moment and replied.
"I see. And what about Aoba-kun's cousin? What does she think? Is she planning to go back in a few days?" asked about Uesugi Maki's plans.
"Yes, she and I have the same purpose, so I came to see it out of curiosity, but I don't know if she will change her mind and stay in the end, but I don't think there is much hope that she will stay, after all, it is still a little too simple compared to Tokyo, and it is difficult for me to imagine people who are used to living in the city. was able to live in peace here, just because there was no Internet, she was already very irritable. Aoba said with a smile.
"I understand, then I'll arrange it later, and cancel the trials for Aoba-kun and your cousin!Anyway, you're going back in a few days, so it's better to take advantage of these few days to have a good tour here, in fact, there are many places with good scenery here." But I won't be able to accompany you Aoba-kun these days. The nine-tailed demon fox first recommended the scenery of the trial land to Aoba, and then said with some regret.
"What's wrong?" Aoba asked, puzzled.
"I'm going to finish all the accumulated work in the next few days, so that I can go back to Tokyo with Aoba-kun!" replied the nine-tailed demon fox as a matter of course.
"Aren't you going to stay here for a while?" Aoba wondered.
"The original plan was like this. But now I've changed my mind. The nine-tailed demon fox winked playfully and said to Aoba.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you to go back to Tokyo together. So he smiled and nodded.
"Then it's decided, it's not too early, let's go back quickly. I can't wait to get to work. As he spoke, the nine-tailed demon fox took Aoba's hand and dragged Aoba as if he were walking down the mountain.
"Don't forget to eat breakfast before you start working, it's not good for your health. Aoba instructed with a smile.
Although for the nine-tailed demon fox. It doesn't matter if she eats breakfast or not, and it is impossible for her body to have any diseases because she doesn't eat breakfast, but in the face of Aoba's expressed concern. The nine-tailed demon fox still felt a burst of warmth.
"Don't worry, Aoba-kun, I will. The nine-tailed demon fox turned around, leaving a bright smile, and then his steps became lighter and lighter.
In this way, the two of them walked all the way down the mountain along the road last night, the difference was that it was daytime now, and last night was night.
However, although there is only one difference, the scenery in front of the two is very different, the forest that looks gloomy at night looks lush and full of life at this time, and the sound of insects in the forest from time to time at night is always chilling, and the sound of insects in the forest during the day is more and more vibrant.
The same scenery can be enjoyed at different times, but you will get diametrically opposite feelings, which is the difference between day and night.
Although for people like Aoba and the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, who are masters of the arts, whether it is day or night, the two of them are fearless, but they still have a different feeling for the forest during the day and at night.
In this way, the two returned to the back door of Zhegui Palace under the morning light, the night watchman was no longer here, and the two returned to Zhegui Palace more easily than when they left last night, and after walking a few more steps, it was time to separate.
"Then Aoba-kun, I'll go first. The nine-tailed demon fox glanced at Aoba with some reluctance and said.
"Go, I'm going back too, and if it's a little later, my cousin will probably get up, and if she doesn't see me, it's probably another trouble, and I don't bother to explain why I didn't come home all night. Aoba said with a shrug.
"yes, it's time to go back. The nine-tailed demon fox took a deep breath and said as if to convince herself, but her eyes, which always stayed on Aoba's cheeks, showed her reluctance.
"Let's go back!" Aoba urged with a smile again.
The nine-tailed demon fox nodded, let go of the hand holding Aoba, and left step by step.
And Aoba also smiled after he couldn't see the figure of the nine-tailed demon fox at all, and turned around and walked towards the courtyard where he lived.
By the time I returned to the courtyard, the sun had already risen high, and there was already a sound in Maki Uesugi's room.
Just as Aoba walked to his door and opened it, the door of Maki Uesugi also opened, and the sleepy-eyed Maki Uesugi walked out of the room. At first glance, I saw Aoba standing in front of the door.
"Brother Aoba, you're already up! I thought I was already early, but I didn't expect you to be earlier than me. Uesugi Maki said with a sigh.
Obviously, she was standing in front of the open door at this time, and she thought that she had just gotten up and opened the door, and she didn't think that Aoba had not returned overnight and had just returned.
"I just woke up and was about to wash up!" Aoba didn't explain, the more he explained, the more complicated it became, it might as well just let her misunderstand, and Aoba said it wasn't bad. It was true that he had just woken up, but he had woken up on a cliff.
"Then let's go together, it's almost time for Blue Sauce to deliver breakfast, but don't we have Lan Sauce here and we haven't cleaned it up yet." Uesugi Maki continued to breathe while holding the washing tools and walked towards the sink not far away.
Obviously, it is also located in the trial place in the countryside, and the washing location is similar to the Uesugi family's old house, which is in the courtyard.
"You wash up first, I'll go back to my room and get the washing tools, and I'll come right away." Aoba said and walked into the room.
"Hurry up, then. Uesugi didn't think much of it and walked to the sink. Start washing up.
After a while, Aoba also came over, and the two began to wash side by side.
Because girls always have more time to do than boys at this time, Uesugi Maki, who came to the sink first and started washing, finished washing with Aoba.
"Yes. I feel much more comfortable now, and it's a new day that is refreshing and refreshing. "After washing, Uesugi Maki exudes a youthful and lively atmosphere all over his body, and he is in a sleepy-eyed state just now. It's not the same at all.
"Yes, it's a new day again, do you feel the morning in the mountains? The air smells of grass. Aoba said with a smile.
"Yes? When you say that, it seems to be true. Uesugi Maki, who hadn't noticed it, carefully distinguished, and sure enough, she caught the unique fragrance of the grass from the air, so she took a few deep breaths, as if she wanted to inhale all the grass around her into her lungs, and then let out another breath, showing a comfortable smile.
"Okay, okay, Lan Sauce is coming, don't send washing tools and clean up. Aoba watched Uesugi Maki inhale and exhale deeply, like a child who had encountered an interesting toy and had a lot of fun, so he had to remind him out loud.
"Oh, I see. So Uesugi Maki reacted and returned to the room after Aoba returned to the room.
And just as the two of them packed up their things and returned to the courtyard, Qing Shuilan's figure appeared at the gate of the courtyard.
I saw that Qing Shui Lan looked at the situation in the yard a little cautiously, especially when he saw Aoba, he kept sweeping over Aoba with a suspicious gaze.
Obviously, what happened last night is not so easy to forget in Qing Qinglan's heart, but obviously she also knows the severity, what can be said and what not to talk nonsense, she still understands, so she didn't ask on the spot, but pretended to be casual and brought breakfast to the two.
"Blue sauce has worked hard. Uesugi Maki said gratefully while taking the food box in Shimizulan's hand.
"You're welcome Maki-chan, that's what I should do. Qing Shui Lan said casually, but the strange eyes that would look at Aoba from time to time still showed that she paid special attention to Aoba.
Maki Uesugi didn't notice this, but Aoba knew it clearly, but all Aoba could do was pretend that he didn't know anything.
"Thank you so much, Blue Sauce. So all Aoba could do was simply thank the other party for bringing breakfast.
"Aoba-kun is polite, speaking of which, where did Aoba-kun and Maki-chan come from?Of course, I know that you are from Tokyo, I mean where do your abilities come from??" Qing Shui Lan still couldn't hold back her curiosity and began to ask tentatively.
Although the question she asked was completely related to the fact that Aoba and the nine-tailed demon fox were together last night, it meant that Shimizu Blue was beginning to be curious about Aoba and Uesugi Maki, and she was trying to find out the details of the two.
"We're all from the Uesugi family, we all come from the Uesugi family!" Uesugi Maki obviously didn't know the true purpose of Shimizu Lan, but she was just curious, so she replied simply.
At the same time, Maki Uesugi also opened the food box and saw the xiaolongbao in the food box.
"Hey, it's xiaolongbao, and it's just xiaolongbao for breakfast? It's so luxurious!" said Uesugi with a sigh.
"Oh, it's because the founder likes Chinese cuisine very much, so there are a lot of Chinese cuisine here in the Land of Trials, and even breakfast is often Chinese. Qing Shui Lan said and couldn't help but glance at Aoba again.
"It's so happy to be able to eat xiaolongbao from breakfast!" said Maki Uesugi with a happy face, completely forgetting the problem of Qing Mizuran just now.
But Qing Shui Lan didn't forget.
"Well, what you said about the Uesugi family, please forgive me for being lonely and unheard, can you tell me where the Uesugi family is a big family of spiritual power?" Qing Mizuran continued to ask, not giving up because of Uesugi Maki's sigh for Xiaolongbao.
"The Uesugi family is just an ordinary Onmyoji family, and there has been no Onmyoji for many generations, and it has long since declined. Aoba looked at Qing Mizulan with a smile and said, as for Uesugi Maki, he had completely taken the opportunity to look forward to the xiaolongbao, and after bringing out the two baskets of xiaolongbao, he set up a posture to prepare for eating, and waited for Aoba to go together.
"The declining Onmyoji family?" Qing Shui Lan muttered to herself, her eyes full of doubts, obviously she couldn't imagine how a young man from the declining Onmyoji family got together with the nine-tailed demon fox?
"Aoba-kun, come on, come on. On the other hand, Uesugi Maki couldn't help it in the face of the delicious xiaolongbao, and began to beckon Aoba to eat together.
"Okay, then we'll have breakfast first. Aoba finally nodded at Qing Shui Lan and said.
"Ah, I'm sorry to disturb your meal, please eat it while it's hot! Qing Shui Lan reacted and said with a smile.
"Then thank you Lan-chan. Uesugi said.
"Thank you. Aoba also nodded and smiled in thanks.
With Shimizu Blue leaving, Aoba and Uesugi Maki began to eat their first breakfast in the Land of Trials.
