"You want to kill me, right?" She asked the sky like this, her voice desolate.

The spring thunder sounded, and the raindrops fell, and Shen Li struggled to prop up her body to find a place to shelter from the rain. When she turned her head, she saw the man in azure clothes and white robes standing on the river bank with a basket on his back, eyes meeting, Shen Li couldn't help being moved for a while. It was like walking through the eighteenth floor of hell, and suddenly seeing the little yellow flower in the sun was soothed. Although the man on the embankment is far better than the little yellow flower, even though this man and a chicken's eye contact makes the picture not very beautiful.

Across the increasingly hazy rain curtain, Xingyun stared at Shen Li, who was covered in dust, for a long time, then buried his head in a humiliating manner and smiled.

This... This is absolutely mockery!

"Stupid chicken." Xingyun muttered, but took out an oil-paper fan from the basket behind him, propped it up, and then slowly walked towards Shen Li step by step. Shen Li has been unable to escape, and has no intention of running away. Although she doesn't know what Xingyun is, for Shen Li now, the worst result is to be stewed. Here in Xingyun, she can eat something before she dies. OK

The oil-paper fan propped up a clear sky above his head: "Giggle, I thought you wouldn't come back if you ran away, but you are actually here waiting for me to return home." Shen Li drooped her head and ignored him. Xingyun picked her up and put it in his backpack, "You are really good, you can make yourself so embarrassed in just half a day, good work."

"Hey!" Go your way! Shen Li couldn't help scolding, "Sigh!" There was so much nonsense.

Xingyun sneered and stopped talking. A paper fan completely blocked the rain on his head, and not a single drop fell on Shen Liguang's body.

After being tired for a long time, Shen Li followed the turbulent arc of the basket on his back, and fell asleep after a while, but she was awakened by a coolness not long after falling asleep.

"You broiler is so sturdy." Xingyun took a step back with the scoop.

Shen Li flicked the water on the two fleshy wings and stared at him alertly: "What?"

"What can you do?" Xingyun asked her with a smile, "You are as dirty as the things you just dug out of the soil, I will help you wash them with them, otherwise, you still prefer to play in the pond? "

Shen Li took a look to the side and found that she was in a large wooden basin with a pile of wild ginseng. She used her claws to dig the ginseng that looked like a lump of soil, and Xingyun grabbed her claws and said, "Take it easy, it's broken. Can't sell it."

"You... are you selling this kind of ginseng?"

"Otherwise what kind?" Xingyun grabbed her paw, rubbed it with the loofah net on the side, washed it and grabbed the other one, as if thinking of something, he moved and looked at with a smile Shen Li, "Which do you think it is?"

Being too close, her beautiful face made Shen Li's heart beat abruptly. Looking at the smile on Xingyun's lips, she felt that she was being teased for a while. King Bi Cang became angry and shouted, "Presumptuous!" The sharp beak poked forward and pecked directly on Xingyun's nose. Xingyun was unprepared, and was poked backwards. He took a few steps back to stabilize his body, covering his nose for a long time without raising his head.

There was still an anger in Shen Li's heart, but seeing Xingyun kept her head down, she wondered if her mouth was too heavy, what should she do if she wanted to poke him out? And... if he wants to deal with himself now... Shen Li is silent.

Just as he was at a loss, Xingyun's shoulders trembled slightly. Shen Li looked at him inexplicably, and when she heard him laugh, Shen Li became more and more stunned, is her beak poisonous? Did you peck him stupid

Xingyun put down his hand, holding his red and swollen nose, came over not afraid of death, and patted her head gently: "Good work."

Shen Li sat down in the wooden tub strangely, it was the first time that she couldn't understand a person like this...

"Stupid chicken." Accompanied by this soft cry, Shen Li raised her head, and a wet mass of mud slapped her face. The mud flowed down and blocked Shen Li's small nostrils. She hurriedly opened her mouth to breathe, but the sand got into her mouth again, and Shen Li coughed and rolled in the basin.

Xingyun continued to wash the wild ginseng calmly.

This guy... This guy is a kid! Vengeful overweight brat!

Shen Li decided to stay at Xingyun's house temporarily for two reasons. First, her physical strength recovered very quickly here, but within two or three days, the injuries Mo Fang left on her body did not affect her actions at all. influence. Second, she didn't want to be caught and stewed.

What bothered Shen Lichou was that she didn't know when her mana would recover, she didn't know when she would recover her body, she didn't know when she would be able to leave here, and she didn't know when the demon chasing troops would come. But fortunately, the time in the sky always flies faster than the world, which has won her a lot of time.

"Eating." Xingyun called from the room, and Shen Li jumped to the edge of the dining table and sat.

Shen Li believed that it was Xingyun's food that made her recover so quickly, so she ate the food he made every day, but... "Why is it steamed bread again?" Shen Li stared at the food on the plate in front of her. , dissatisfied, tapped the edge of the plate with his paw. No matter how delicious it is, eating it every day is enough to make you tired. The most important thing is that she wants to eat meat!

"Is it bad?"

"It's delicious, but I want to eat meat."

"No money."

Shen Li was startled by the words that were too decisive. She looked up at Xingyun, who was also eating steamed buns, and looked at him up and down: "Isn't it okay to eat meat occasionally? You don't look like you are rich. , but it shouldn't be very poor, right?"

Xingyun smiled calmly: "I'm very poor, but my temperament is so good."

Although this may sound uncomfortable, what he said is also true. Shen Li turned her head and looked at the mountain ginseng road he was drying in the yard, "What about those wild ginseng you sell? It should make a lot of money."

"Changed to medicine with the pharmacy owner." He said this lightly, as if he didn't care about his illness.

However, Shen Li was stunned for a moment, and after a long while, she didn't dare to say more, she just buried her head in silence and ate the steamed buns.

In the middle of the night, Shen Li guessed that Xingyun fell asleep. In the middle of the night, she took a long breath in the yard by the light of Yuehua, and then stretched out her paws and touched the white stone in front of her. The white stone flashed with golden light. It seems to have turned into gold, but in just a moment, the brilliance dissipated, and it was still a piece of ordinary stone.

Shen Li sighed, sure enough, her body was empty, and she couldn't even perform a simple magic trick. She sat down beside the stone a little dejected, and it was the first time she had experienced such helplessness in her life.

Shen Li looked into the pitch-black room, the night wind brought out a little of the medicinal fragrance in the room, Shen Li flapped her wings twice, stood up again with all her strength, and continued to look up at the moonlight. , hold your breath. This Xingyun can be considered to be kind to her, and she also knows the principle of repaying her kindness, but Shen Li is a prince, but she is a martial artist. She is good at killing enemies and fighting, but not saving people and curing diseases. If it doesn't matter, let him live a better life in his lifetime.

Shen Li took a deep breath and absorbed the breath of Yuehua into her body. She leaned over and pecked at the white stone. Guanghua won. When Shen Li opened her eyes, she saw the golden light in the white stone kept moving, but it disappeared in the end. She was furious and kicked Bai Shi fiercely: "Useless thing!" Before she could finish her sentence, she curled her claws and cried out in pain, "It hurts." She staggered twice on one foot, Shen Li He glared at Shiraishi and shouted "Stubborn Stone!"

At the end, he stopped in front of the stone and continued to practice the method of turning stone into gold.

It's just that Shen Li, who was throwing herself on a stone with all her heart, didn't know that behind the dark door of the hut, there was a pair of eyes, smiling all the time, taking her actions into her eyes. After Shen Li didn't know how many times she failed, Tsing Yi flicked her clothes and turned into the back room.

Xingyun rummaged through the cupboard, took out a dozen copper plates, and weighed it twice: "Go buy two taels of meat tomorrow."

Shen Li sucked the moonlight all night, to no avail. In the morning, she put her head on the rock listlessly to sleep, but she suddenly heard the sound of the courtyard door opening. She was refreshed and ran to the front yard. Don't sell ginseng today?"

"Shen is still in the sun." Xingyun patted Shen Li's head with a short body, "I'm going out to buy something, just watch the house."

"I'll go too, wait!" Shen Li turned around and ran to the backyard, took the stubborn stone that had not been successfully transformed last night into her mouth, and then ran back and said vaguely, "Go. Right." She felt that since the essence of the moon didn't work, she could just try the essence of the sun. If she succeeded in turning stone into gold, she could just buy something good and come back.

Xingyun stared at the stone in her mouth, stunned for a moment, didn't ask anything else, just smiled: "How are you going to go out with me? There are many people in the market, and I've been separated, and I may turn around and refer to you. It becomes a pot of soup. Why don't I put a rope around your neck and lead you along, okay?"

Shen Li was furious when she heard the words: "Presumptuous!" She flapped her wings non-stop, "I accompany you to the market with good intentions, out of gratitude, naturally I want you to hold Ben... Hold me! Hurry up, hold me. "

Looking at the two fleshy wings that Shen Li stretched out, Xingyun was stunned for a while, and then smiled suddenly, actually bent down and hugged Shen Li, letting her rub against her arms for a long time, and finally found her. After lying down in a comfortable position, he instructed, "Be careful when you walk, don't be too upset."

Xingyun chuckled: "Yes, all listen to the chicken."

Shen Li cast spells all the way to no avail, Xingyun didn't care what she made, she just walked her own way calmly, and when she got to the market, she heard meat sellers shouting today's meat prices from far away. Xingyun thought about it, no, the meat has gone up again, and he can't afford it for two taels... This chicken has a big stomach, and he definitely can't get enough to eat. He has to mutter when he looks back, and I don't know which year and month to poke this stone...

Just in time, someone suddenly said next to him: "Hey, it counts as ten copper coins for wealth."

Xingyun turned his head and saw that a man in his thirties was holding a fortune-telling banner, holding the sign of the half-immortal, holding another person's hand and saying incessantly: "From this point of view, the cross pattern , is a great auspicious sign, the young master has been blessed recently..." Xingyun was silent for a while, then suddenly stepped forward: "This brother." He directly inserted the words, "This afternoon, there may be fire in your home, if this If you don’t return home, you will regret it in the future.”

As soon as these words came out, the fortune-teller and the young man were stunned, and even Shen Li looked up at him from his arms in confusion. The fortune teller was the first to react. He frowned and said in a bad temper, "What nonsense! Go, don't mess with this son's fortune."

"You can tell if you are talking nonsense when you go home." Xingyun smiled lightly, "I am still here waiting for the young master this afternoon."

Since the young man came to tell the fortune, he was a person who believed in this way. Seeing that he said it so firmly, he couldn't help but feel a drum in his heart. Shen Li poked his arm lightly with the tip of her wing: "Are you lying?"

"Don't make trouble." Xingyun touched her head, "It's a matter of two or two meat."

Before Xingyun finished speaking, the fortune teller suddenly threw the flag and said angrily: "I said what's going on with you! Do you understand the rules! Do you have a bad business like you!"

In the face of the other party's anger, Xingyun Chuli calmly said, "It's not to steal your business, I'm telling the truth, if you don't believe it, you can wait here until the afternoon, if my words come true, you will be willing to give up. He just gave you the fortune-telling money to give me."

"Ha! You're on the hook with me, aren't you! Ah, good!" The fortune-teller swore swear, "I Wang Banxian have been in the industry for so long, I don't believe you anymore! Just wait, if that kid turns back if If you don't come back or you're not sure, you..." He looked at Xingyun, "give me that broiler!"

Shen Li was furious, her wings exploded immediately, and before she said a word, Xingyun gently pressed it back: "Relax, I'm here, no one can take you away."

I don't know what kind of strange power there is in his words, but Shen Li, who had always been at the forefront, was miraculously calmed down and chose - well, I'll trust you first, this option. Is it because... I have been protected by him before, protected by such a weak mortal...
