The autumn night was cold and the sky was pitch black.
Leng Mushi quietly moved away from the fire and walked to the back of the carriage. She squinted her eyes and looked into the forest, looking for the figure who had been neat and upright all the way.
He should have gone to pee. Leng Mushi had been observing him all the way. Although immortals are not allowed to eat worldly food after practicing fasting, according to the male protagonist's current level of cultivation, he still has to eat.
When people eat grains, they must have three urgent needs.
Leng Mushi had been searching for a whole day but hadn't found any good opportunity. Now she finally caught the opportunity when the male protagonist couldn't hold it anymore and had to pee, and she followed.
This mountain is full of tree pits, which can barely be considered cliffs, so the risk factor is low. She can just jump into one according to the plot and she will have completed the mission!
She walked around the carriage, held on to the big tree and took a few steps. Then, in the dim moonlight, she saw a figure walking towards her not far away.
Leng Mushi hurriedly walked over to him, practicing the lines she was going to recite in the plot over and over in her mind - Brother Xiao, I've been thinking about you all day. From the first moment I saw you, I felt that you looked like my cousin, which made me feel close to you.
It has to be said that the male protagonist is indeed good-looking. When Leng Mushi saw him for the first time during the day, she understood why the rules in the book said that this vicious female supporting role would go crazy in order to win the male protagonist's love.
His features are pretty but not feminine, his temperament is solemn but not cold. All the people Leng Mushi has ever met in her life, whether male or female, are inferior to him. It is no exaggeration to say that he has an angelic appearance.
At this moment, people look even more beautiful under the moonlight. Leng Mushi saw him approaching her, and seemed to wonder why she was here. She moved her beautiful lips and uttered a sound like the sound of a spring that went straight into her heart and lungs: "Miss Leng, why..."
"Brother Xiao, I've been thinking about your beautiful face all day. Let me get closer to you..." Leng Mushi paused and realized that something was wrong. She was too nervous. After all, this kind of thing of following a man to pee was the first time in her life.
The familiar lines in the plot were misplaced, and she even added a sentence unwillingly, "I will give you another cousin..."
Xiao Mian: …
Leng Mushi: …
After a suffocating silence, Xiao Mian was so shocked that his lips, which had been slightly opened, pursed tightly. He turned sideways to bypass Leng Mushi and return to the crowd, but Leng Mushi messed up his lines and hadn't jumped off the cliff yet, so he couldn't let him go. So he bravely grabbed his wrist.
"Brother Xiao, please listen to my explanation. I mean, I am attracted by your beautiful appearance and want to have a baby with you..."
"Bah!" Leng Mushi spat on the ground and straightened her tongue, "I mean you look like my cousin, I like you!"
After he finished speaking, there was another strange silence. The night wind brought with it the sharp cries of a few katydids, as if mocking Leng Mushi's tangled tongue.
Perhaps shocked by Leng Mushi's ferocity, Xiao Mian spoke after a while. Under the moonlight, his eyebrows and eyes were surrounded by a layer of soft light, making his appearance more like an immortal and not like that of an ordinary person.
He seemed to raise his hand gently, and Leng Mushi's hand suddenly felt empty. He pushed her away easily as if he was brushing off a blade of grass from the corner of his clothes.
He spoke in a calm voice: "Miss Leng, it's late at night, and there are many evil spirits in this area. You should follow me back to the formation and rest."
Leng Mushi thought it was the end. If she didn't get through this plot after tonight, she would definitely be punished tomorrow. She didn't want to experience that kind of excruciating pain again!
So just as Xiao Mian walked around her and turned to walk towards the crowd, Leng Mushi grabbed Xiao Mian's waist belt. Of course, she wanted to grab his arm, but in her panic she didn't care where it was, she just pulled it and ran away.
Xiao Mian was not on guard against this mortal woman who was talking nonsense, and he never expected her to suddenly attack him.
Even though Leng Mushi was a frail woman, he could not withstand her desperate strength. He was pulled back a step and held on to a tree to stand without falling. However, his waist belt could not bear the weight and broke with a "squeak".
Xiao Mian froze, and turned around to look at the woman who was still running into the forest. His neat white robe suddenly spread out...
But he didn't care about that, because the jade buckle on the waist belt contained an extremely important item to him.
So he didn't even have time to pull up his clothes, and immediately ran after her, grabbing the sword and jade pendant that had fallen to the ground due to the loose waist belt. With a "clang", he drew out his icy and cold natal sword Shuiyun and pointed it directly at Leng Mushi's back.
How could Leng Mushi, a weak mortal woman, possibly outrun Xiao Mian, the favorite disciple of the Taichu Sect's elder? So within a moment, she felt a cold sword across her neck.
"Hey, hey, hey, Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xiao, don't shake your hands, listen to my explanation..." Leng Mushi raised her hands, one of which was still wearing Xiao Mian's waist seal, "I was just joking with you, really! Please put away this sword, I'm scared."
Xiao Mian's natal sword was forged by his master Tianxuzi himself. It is a rare spiritual object in the world of cultivation. At this moment, the sword felt the anger of its master, and the runes glowed faintly. The cold sword energy flowed along Leng Mushi's neck towards her skin, causing her bones to shiver.
"Master Xiao?" Leng Mushi's five senses were not as sharp as Xiao Mian's. The moonlight was not enough for her to see Xiao Mian's momentary out-of-control expression. However, Xiao Mian quickly restrained his expression, put away his sword, raised his hand to take the waist belt that Leng Mushi had torn off him, found the broken place, and discovered that the jade buckle was still there, then he slowly let out a sigh of relief.
If his master had not asked him to bring the only remaining descendant of the Leng family to Taichu Sect safely, and if Xiao Mian had not detected the slightest evil spirit in Leng Mushi, he might have hurt her with that sword just now.
He put away his sword, but could not fasten his waist belt. He had not yet reached the stage of spiritual transformation, so he could not fasten the waist belt without any effort. However, letting his clothes hang loose was definitely not his style. He could only swing his sword to cut a branch, gather up his scattered robe, and use the soft branch as a temporary waist belt, tying it around his waist.
His movements were quick and decisive, and he walked away after he had finished. However, this time, in order to prevent the woman behind him from going crazy, he dispersed some of his spiritual awareness to guard against her.
But she refused to keep quiet and started shouting behind him.
"Brother Xiao! Please be with me!" Leng Mushi lost her hairpin while running just now, and now her long hair was scattered.
Unlike someone like Xiao Mian, who has an ethereal appearance and looks like an immortal, even with her clothes flying off when she gets anxious, she is just an ordinary woman. Even though she looks good, her hair is disheveled at the moment, and she has to make crazy expressions as described in the plot, so she can be described as insane.
She shouted, "Brother Xiao, if you don't agree to me, I will jump down from here!"
Xiao Mian was really offended by her. He actually thought for a moment that she had been making so much noise along the way, and if she really jumped down and got hurt, she would definitely be calmer.
But when he realized that Leng Mushi was really jumping off the cliff, he sensed where she was standing, turned around and rushed back, grabbing her at the critical moment!
Not here!
She can jump if she wants, but not here!
Leng Mushi closed her eyes and prepared to fall. She was not afraid of getting hurt. After all, in the plot, a vicious female supporting role like her would have to jump around for a long time.
The law told her that she would not get hurt at this level, and not only was she not hurt, she even used this opportunity to file a complaint with Tianchu Sect's fifth elder, Tianxuzi, her own living ancestor, falsely accusing her of having been pushed down by her sister, Leng Tianyin.
Of course, Leng Tianyin is the heroine of this book, and she and Xiao Mian, who is holding her now, are a perfect match made in heaven... Eh
How did Xiao Mian hold her back
Leng Mushi reacted quickly this time. She had finished her lines and now she had to fall down to complete the plot!
How could Xiao Mian come back to pull her after walking so far? Leng Mushi struggled quickly: "Let me go!"
"Let me go, really, I'm fine, I won't die if I fall down," Leng Mushi couldn't break free from Xiao Mian's hand, so she had to stand on the edge of the cliff and argue with him helplessly, "To be honest, whether I jump or not is none of your business, if you grab me again I'll scream molest!"
Her attitude was extremely bad and she insisted on jumping, which was completely different from her previous look as if she was asking for something but still wanted it but still threatened her cousin.
But Xiao Mian seemed to be in a fight with her. He held her tightly and tried to pull her off the cliff.
Two days, two whole days, Leng Mushi finally found an opportunity to follow the plot, and now that she had come to this last step, she definitely couldn't let it go. She couldn't struggle free, and in a hurry she began to act like a child, swinging on Xiao Mian's arm, and even biting Xiao Mian's wrist.
Xiao Mian had never met such a scoundrel in his life, and he was in a dilemma for a moment. Leng Mushi saw that he would not let go even after biting him, so he came up with a plan.
The imminent death inspired her wisdom. She suddenly hugged Xiao Mian and said in a tender voice, "Brother Xiao, you are so reluctant to let me jump, could it be that you have agreed to be with me?"
Xiao Mian has a taboo, that is, he doesn't like to get close to people, and his waist is particularly sensitive. Leng Mushi naturally knows this, after all, she is a woman who knows the whole story.
As expected, when she hugged Xiao Mian, his hair stood on end. He subconsciously threw his hand back and Leng Mushi was thrown directly off the cliff.
Jumping with mental preparation and being thrown down are two different things. The instinct for survival made Leng Mushi open her arms and grab anything she could. Then, as luck would have it, she grabbed the waist belt that Xiao Mian was holding in his hand.
"ah!"
"Why!"
The next moment, the two people rolled down along the gentle slope on the edge of the cliff. It turned out that this was not a cliff, but a small slope.
There was a light inside the storage bag, and Leng Mushi smiled while lying in the grass.
This plot is complete!
There is no danger after all!
This time, Xiao Mian lost all his composure. He sat up and snatched the waist belt from Leng Mushi's hand, then rolled it up and stuffed it into his arms.
Leng Mushi also got up. After a moment, a mountain breeze blew past, and she felt her face and hands were cold and wet, as if they were stuck with something.
So she murmured in confusion: "Hey, what is that..."
She subconsciously raised her hand and put it under her nose, wanting to smell whether she had squeezed some fruit juice or if it was dew so early.
"No!" When Xiao Mian saw her actions, his solemn expression broke and he shouted in panic. At the same time, he raised his hand and hit her neck hard, knocking her unconscious before Leng Mushi could smell the water on his hand.
In the valley under the moon, the young immortal's face was so red that it seemed to be bleeding.
