Li suddenly pricked up his ears and heard someone walking towards the yard.
She grabbed the dog's legs and dragged him into the house.
It was Mo Yun who stepped into the courtyard.
"Good morning." She nodded generously.
Xia Fan nodded slightly in return, "I thought you wouldn't come today."
"Yesterday, I had a long conversation with His Highness all night, so I woke up a little late." Mo Yun explained calmly, "I will live in Jinxia for a long time in the future. I would like to ask for your advice in arithmetic and mechanical skills."
"It's not about teaching, it's about learning from each other." Xia Fan could tell that she was in a very good mood. Plus, she had been talking to the princess in detail all night, and she was going to stay in Jinxia for a long time. She was afraid that the princess had persuaded her to board the pirate ship. .
She knew that she was going to embark on a thorny road with huge risks, but she was willing to do it. It can only be said that the princess's level of deception was almost the same as his.
"Are you studying new alchemy techniques?" Mo Yun noticed the messy talismans and polished ink on the table.
"Yeah, but it's over." Xia Fan simply cleaned up, "Do you want to continue testing the machine beast?"
"It's not urgent." She looked around, "Excuse me... is Miss Li here?"
"Yes, you are, you have something to do with her?" Xia Fan said somewhat surprised.
"Yesterday the princess and I talked about many things, including... the origin of the demon. Miss Li has always covered her tail and ears, right? Whenever I am here." Mo Yun said slowly, "I want to She said she was sorry because she could have dressed more relaxedly and comfortably.”
I see.
Xia Fan turned to look inside the room, "What do you think?"
"It doesn't matter, it's not a big deal. I've been used to it for so many years outside." Li walked out of the house again and appeared in front of the two of them in his complete appearance.
Shanhui also poked his head out from Li's feet.
"This is the first time I have seen a monster." Mo Yun sighed. "I used to think that monsters were ferocious-looking, ferocious aliens. Now I realize how ridiculous my thoughts are."
"It's not surprising that ordinary people would think so," Li said. "Only the real aliens wouldn't find animal ears and thick tails ugly. But it's a good thing you understand. Wear a cloth hat on a hot day." It’s really uncomfortable.”
Wait, Xia Fan thought for a moment, why did he think the fox demon was full of aura when talking to Mo Yun
And why do you have to glance at yourself in the second half of the sentence
"I... have a gracious request." Mo Yun hesitated for a moment, and finally whispered, "Can you let me touch your ears and tail?"
As soon as these words came out, Xia Fan and Li were both stunned.
What's happening here
After a few days of contact, they found that Mo Yun did not show anything unusual except for his extraordinary knowledge and skill in craftsmanship.
"This... it's better to avoid it." Li coughed twice, "I'm not used to being too close to people. If you are really interested, try it with the Tengu. Shanhui, go."
"Oh wow." Shanhui wandered to Mo Yun.
The latter knelt down and reached out to touch the other person's head.
"So soft..."
Mo Yun fondled the Shiba Inu's ears with emotion.
Shan Hui was a little nervous at first, but soon he closed his eyes and enjoyed the grooming with peace of mind.
Seeing Miss Mo's happy look, Xia Fan suddenly realized in his heart, could this person be a cat and dog lover at heart
"Um... Miss Mo, do you like small animals?"
"When I was still in the Mo family, I raised birds and dogs." Mo Yun nodded, "I was very unhappy for a while, and they were the ones who kept me going. At that time, I even felt... with them Being together is easier than being with other people. But then I went to the Ministry of Industry and moved my residence to the Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, so I couldn't keep pets anymore."
She seemed to realize something was wrong when she said this, and quickly added, "Sorry, I am not comparing demons to animals, I just think it is incredible that there are similarities between the two."
Li raised the corner of his mouth and said, "It's nothing. Sometimes the behavior of demons is similar to that of animals. It can only be said to be natural. As for whether they have opinions on this point of view, it depends on the person. At least the dog demon will not feel any discomfort. OK."
"Then I'm relieved." Mo Yun breathed a sigh of relief, "But... why is Shanhui in the form of a tengu but Miss Li is not? Is he usually like this?"
"Transformation will continuously consume Qi, and proper consumption is good for demons. This is just like human cultivation. The more activities the parts have, the stronger they are. For Tengu who only acts on instinct, changing forms is one of the few things he can do. I don’t need to consume it through other means. It’s just a matter of casting the spell a few times.”
Xia Fan could tell that Li was brazenly showing off.
In addition, Mo Yun's preference surprised him.
Her concentration on making the machine beast and her obsession with algebraic geometry make her look like a mechanical enthusiast. When she is fully at work, she can be summed up in one sentence rather than two. With her height of over 1.7 meters and deep frowning eyebrows, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is as cold as ice.
But now she was made to laugh by Shanhui.
It can only be said that people cannot be generalized.
Anyway, things like machine beasts didn't want to rush forward, so Xia Fan simply found a shady place to sit down and enjoy this short leisure.
Li sat down and looked at him with raised eyebrows.
"Stop, I know what you are going to say." Before she could speak, Xia Fan took the initiative to admit, "I was wrong. Foxes and dogs do not belong to the same category. I will never mention it again."
Li De raised his head as if victorious.
Shan Hui over there was already running around Mo Yun.
Probably he wanted to show Miss Mo the strength of the Tengu. His speed was completely different from before. At first, Xia Fan could see the entire Shiba Inu, but soon he could only capture a gray shadow.
"It's so powerful... Is this the demon's instinctive magic?" Mo Yun clicked his tongue in surprise.
"Yes, but this place is not suitable for running." Xia Fan shook his head helplessly, "Let Shanhui stop."
"He can probably only hear the wind now, so he should use the meditation technique." Li stood up and said.
But her stop seemed to be a little late. The tengu, who had difficulty controlling its course, ran from a small circle to a large circle, and obviously deviated from Mo Yun.
There was only a clang sound, and Shanhui came into close contact with the long table where the talismans were placed.
The tengu rolled over holding his head.
The table with one leg missing also fell down.
"This stupid dog!"
Li couldn't help but cover his face.
For a moment, blank papers were flying in the sky and scattered everywhere.
At this moment, Xia Fan noticed that the purple fluorescent talisman suddenly flickered, and the position where it floated down happened to be near the machine beast.
Then everyone saw an incredible scene—
The empty machine beast started to tremble! A moment later, its joints made a harsh friction sound, and then its two thick wooden legs stepped back and forth, easily breaking the fixed wooden frame, and crashed towards Mo Yun in an extremely weird posture!
