Xingyun boiled a pot of tea and put it on the stone table in the courtyard. Looking at the clean yard, he was very satisfied. There were heavy footsteps approaching slowly outside. Shen Li stood at the door of the courtyard with her hands in her arms. unhappy. Xingyun smiled at her and said, "Anyway, I want to see the prince of a country, why are you crying?"

"Who is embarrassed." Shen Li said, "It's just that he has foreseen the virtue of that crown prince, what kind of master will raise and what kind of subordinates, and the two groups of people who come here are so arrogant and rude, do you think the master will be better where to go?"

Xingyun smiled and took a sip of tea, but said nothing.

A complicated sedan chair stopped in front of the door, and the wide sedan body almost filled the alley. The figure dressed in red silk and yellow forging slowly walked down from the sedan chair. Shen Li squinted at him, with a pair of phoenix eyes and cherry red lips, but what happened to this fat body

The crown prince looked up and down at Shen Li at the door before entering the door, then moved his body and walked into the courtyard. The entourage behind him wanted to follow, and Shen Li stretched out his hand: "There is only one teacup on the table, only one person is invited." A guard in Tsing Yi immediately Putting his hand on the handle of the knife, the mellow crown prince waved his hand: "Waiting outside."

Shen Li raised her eyebrows, she looked generous.

The gate was closed, and it seemed that there were only Xingyun Shenli and the Crown Prince in the courtyard, but all three people present knew that at the time of today's "arrangement", there were already too many places for people to hide in the house.

The crown prince sat down on the stone chair: "It's really not easy to see the prince."

Xingyun smiled: "It's still easier than seeing the prince."

Shen Li grew up in the demon world, and the demon world is martial, whether she is an official or a citizen, she is forthright and upright, and she is the same. The most annoying thing for others to play official words with her, and she didn't like to see others polite, Shen Li drilled into the kitchen and looked for food everywhere in the pots and pans.

"But when I heard that Young Master can understand ghosts and spirits and know the future, I was curious and came to see it. I wanted to make a hexagram, but I don't know if Young Master will take it or not?"

"not taking."

Hearing him being so decisive, the prince's face sank, Xingyun just couldn't do it, "I don't mean it, I just don't like to do divination, and I'm not someone who knows ghosts and gods. If the prince has doubts, please find another method."

"Heh." The crown prince sneered, "Young master is just trying to raise his worth, alright, if you can count on my heart, I will allow you to be honored, rich, and high-ranking officials, and if I take the throne, I will enshrine you as the national teacher. Not impossible."

Xingyun shook his head: "No."

"Young master, don't be ignorant of flattery." The prince looked left and right, "Today, it's easy for me to pacify your small courtyard."

Xingyun took a sip of tea, didn't know what to think, and laughed softly: "The prince has come here so much, he just wants to know when he can ascend the throne, but the emperor's lifespan is related to the country's luck, it's not that he is unwilling to count, but It's really impossible to figure it out. I don't see it easy for the prince to settle down here today, but if you want to settle down here, it's still somewhat possible."

The crown prince's expression changed, and he stood up from the table and shouted, "What a big dog!"

Shen Li took a look into the courtyard from the kitchen, and saw a guard in Tsing Yi jumped out from nowhere, and compared a sharp sword to Xingyun's neck. With a smash on Yun's body, Xingyun wanted to hide, but was restrained by the people behind him, and hot water splashed all over his body in an instant.

Shen Li heard Xingyun groan, thinking that she was hot, her pupils shrank, and an evil fire burst out in her heart, just as she was about to go out, the other two Tsing Yi guards fell in front of Shen Li, drew their swords, Shen Li Li sneered, kicked the person in front of her with one kick, and kicked the person flying out, hitting the Tsing Yi guard behind Xingyun, and the two fell into a pile. When the person standing in front of Shen Li saw this, a sword stabbed, but Shen Li stretched out her hand and grabbed the blade, her palm tightened, and the fine steel sword was wrinkled like a piece of paper when she gently pinched it. Tsing Yi Wei gasped in horror.

Shen Li threw his sword, ignored him, and swayed like a ghost to the corner of the water tank, scooped a ladle of water, and splashed it out with a flick of her arm. The force was so great that it knocked his body off the chair, and rolled mud all over his body in embarrassment: "Hey, oops..." The crown prince was soaked all over, and his hair was covered in embarrassed flesh.

Shen Li's actions were completed in an instant, and no one else jumped out of the courtyard to stop Shen Li. As if they were all stunned by her.

Shen Li strode forward, grabbed the prince by the collar and dragged him from the ground, stared at his phoenix eyes and said, "Get out, or die?" Her body was full of suffocation, and her eyes were faintly terrifying in the dark night. of red light.

"Big... bold and evildoer..." The prince was so frightened that he twitched, pretending to say these four words calmly, but seeing the red light in Shen Li's eyes even more, he immediately said: "Go, go!"

Shen Li pulled him by the collar and dragged him to the door, opened the courtyard door, and threw him outside the courtyard. Jin Gui's crown prince was immediately caught by everyone, and the guards drew their swords. Shen Li sneered and only stared at him. The crown prince said, "It seems that you all want to die here."

The prince crawled into the sedan chair and shouted, "Let's go! Why don't you go! You bastards!"

After a period of chaos, the small courtyard returned to silence. Shen Li closed the door angrily, but saw Xingyun covering her face with cold wet clothes, and then looked at the wet yard and sighed, Shen Li felt in her heart. Inexplicable fire: "Are you stupid? You seem unpredictable on weekdays, how can you only be bullied in front of others!"

Xingyun looked at Shen Li who was angrily, and smiled lightly: "I'm not as powerful as you, and I'm not as powerful as you think." He is just a mortal person, who can't escape birth, old age, sickness and death, and cannot be separated from this worldly world.

Seeing the red mark on his face and the slightly pale lips, Shen Li suddenly felt a choked feeling in her heart, not knowing what to say. That's right, he was an ordinary person in the first place. Water at such a temperature could burn him. Once someone who had studied martial arts restrained him, he wouldn't be able to move for half a minute. Knowing the destiny made him seem omnipotent. But without that ability, he is only flesh and blood, and he will die so easily.

Then... where did he get the confidence to live so calmly!

Shen Li sighed, sat on the stone chair, was silent for a long time, turned her head, and asked vaguely: "Today, I did this, did I make things worse... and cause you trouble?"

Although she beat people up very easily... But King Bi Cang can wake up after causing trouble and realize that he has caused trouble. If this is reported back to the demon world, I don't know how many people will be amazed.

"Yes or no, I stabbed the left and right baskets myself, you just made it bigger."

Shen Li was curious: "What did you say to him?"

Xingyun smiled at her and said: "To sum up, it can be said that he asked me to be his person, I would not allow it, he threatened me to step down here, I laughed that he could only sit down here, he annoyed me Laughing at his figure, he started, and then let you beat him back." Xingyun shook his head helplessly, "It seems that human figure is really a taboo."

You deserve your shit...

The smile on Xingyun's lips suddenly faded slightly: "This person is stubborn and arrogant, and he always hopes that his father and brother will die soon. If the country is handed over to such a person, I'm afraid the world will be uneasy." He raised his head. Looking at the stars in the sky, he looked at it for a while and said, "I'm afraid the world will change hands."

Shen Li wondered: "Don't you like divination and fortune-telling to predict the future?"

"It's not divination. It's about the fortune of the country, and I can't figure it out even if I think about it." Xingyun got up and went back to the house, and his voice came from afar, "His character can be seen, as for the future... It is possible to make it slowly develop in that direction.”

Said so inscrutable again, Shen Li pouted, she couldn't figure out whether this person was strong or weak.

"Shen Li, bring me some water, I'm going to make an ointment. If I don't treat it properly, I'll be ruined."

Shen Li gritted her teeth: "I'm a master at summoning people." After a pause, she raised her voice as if she had responded, "Why do I have to help you!" Whether the prince has to carry water, it's all his business. , why is she mixed in now. The only thing she should think about now is 'when to leave here'!

There were suddenly two muffled coughs in the kitchen, Shen Li's annoyed expression softened slightly, and she only sighed, then obediently walked to the water tank and scooped a bucket of water and carried it to the kitchen: "Go back and lie down." Shen Li squeezed Xingyun away from the edge of the stove, "I'll get it."

Xingyun was stunned, standing beside him without moving, seeing Shen Li tinkering with the medicine jar for a while, then turned around and asked him, "The ointment... how do I get it?"

Xingyun smiled lowly: "I'll do it."

Not being able to help, Shen Li just stood by the side, quietly watching Xingyun making medicine, it was rare to get along with him quietly, after watching for a long time, when Xingyun medicine was almost ready, Shen Li suddenly said: " If I'm not here today, how are you doing? Even though I can't stand the fight, I still have to pretend that I can do anything."

"If you weren't here, I wouldn't be so arrogant." Xingyun said while stirring the medicine in the jar, "But aren't you there?" Without looking at Shen Li, she continued to smile, "You are a lot more arrogant than me, which makes me so easy-going. Just your sturdy aura makes you admire. Very handsome."

handsome... handsome...

Never had a man praised Shen Li directly like this, and the fierceness radiated from her body when she was angry, sometimes even made the devil feel helpless, who would praise her like that.

Shen Li stared blankly at Xingyun's smiling side face, although there were still traces of scalding on his face, it did not affect his appearance, nor did it affect his heartstrings.

"... Pass me that piece of cloth, the jar is too hot to pick up." Xingyun seemed to have said something, but Shen Li only heard the last few words, her mind was still in the dark In a throbbing and somewhat confused state, she noticed that Xingyun was about to turn her head to look at her, Shen Li immediately averted her eyes, and reached for the medicine jar. Before Xingyun could stop her, she held the handle of the hot medicine pot and poured all the medicine inside into the basin.

It wasn't until she put down the medicine jar that Shen Li realized that her palm was a little burning. She blinked her eyes twice, and rubbed her palms on her body: "Well, the medicine is ready."

Xingyun was stunned, but seeing Shen Li hiding her hands behind her back like a child, Xingyun sighed: "It's a girl anyway, do you really treat yourself as a man..." He gently pulled out Shen Li and hid it in the back. The hand behind him was carefully scrutinized by the light. The palm and finger pulp were a little red and swollen, but if it were an ordinary person, this hand would have been burnt. He said, "It's not like you make a man... After I make this ointment for burns, I can just apply it together."
