After parting with Chu Yao, Xia Ge first went to the persimmon forest to touch a bag of persimmons and weighed the heavy persimmons. Xia Ge felt that it was not a big loss to come to Jianfeng.
On the way back to Danfeng, I felt a little uneasy.
"Little puppet, little puppet."
She called a few times as usual, but there was no sound.
"I haven't woken up yet." Xia Ge didn't think much about it. Usually, if she was sick or comatose, the system would go into standby mode.
Maybe it's a system that's been in disrepair. Sometimes she doesn't break down, and the system hasn't recovered from standby.
But just wait.
Now she has a lot to worry about.
The first is... Chu Yao obviously seems to have discovered her identity as a puppet master. Although it seems that she will be kept secret, there is no airtight wall in this world.
Often the first person knows, it means that the second person knows, then the third, the fourth... The last one gets out of hand and becomes many, many.
At that time, she could almost pack up and get out of Danfeng.
"Oh, how sad."
Xia Ge picked up a dog's tail grass and held it in his mouth, holding his head and walking down the mountain. The second thing she worried about was simple and simple, and troublesome was really troublesome.
That is... Obviously now, besides Chu Yao, there is already a "second" or "third" person who knows her identity as a puppet master.
The only good thing to say is that they are not people from Lingxi Peak.
A demonic person.
Through the observation of the past few days, Huo Bai has obviously been dropped by the demons, and he is no longer the Huo Bai before. She hadn't acted before because her thinking at the time was very simple. People who thought it should be a demon sect thought it would be too abrupt if "Huo Bai" disappeared suddenly. Now... Apparently, it's more than that.
Now that I think about it, there are probably other reasons for the bag drop... I have found that she is a little careless.
Once the little puppet she put on Bai Ren is exposed, naturally, Bai Ren, who "may be controlled", cannot continue to be a spy. Of course, he must be replaced. And since the little puppet was exposed, the Demon Sect already knew about the fact that she was a puppet master.
Soul capture is indeed troublesome for ordinary people, but for a sect like the Demon Sect that treats puppet art as a child's thing, although the skill of soul capture is easy to understand, it is not difficult to understand.
"Ugh."
Xia Ge threw the dog's tail grass, a little dejected, the little puppet was really right at that time, she shouldn't have thrown that little puppet bomb.
It was seen through by Chu Yao again, and it was also targeted by the demon sect.
The worst and stupidest move ever made.
System: "It's really stupid."
Xia Ge was startled: "Are you awake?"
System: "Hmm."
Xia Ge sighed, melancholy, "Alas, but the basic purpose has been achieved, and there is nothing else."
The system thought for a while: "Speaking of which, why didn't you expose Huo Bai before?"
Xia Ge: "It has never been exposed."
System: "Huh?"
Xia Ge: "I knew it at first, but I didn't reveal it because I wanted him to be useful... It's very convenient to give Ye Ze the Ghost Dragon Jade with his help."
System: "I know this, but what about after the matter is over?"
Xia Ge: "Didn't Huo Bai have nothing that day? I'm not sure whether he was the one who attacked him that night, so I'll just wait and see. Talk about the evidence."
system:"… "
"Oh, I just didn't expect it to be a lost bag at the time." Xia Ge felt a little melancholy, "Since the other party is now holding my identity as a puppet master, if I get caught, it means that my old bottom is not far away."
System: "...It sounds like you're in a dire situation right now."
Xia Ge: "No, don't be so desperate, take one step at a time, anyway, it won't be worse than before."
System: "That fake Huo Bai is trying to kill you today."
Xia Ge: "If he can kill me, will I still hang out?"
"Huo Bai is nothing, I'm afraid that there will be some messy actions after the demon sect."
While chatting like this, he returned to Danfeng relaxed and happy.
Who knows that it hasn't been a long time since Xia Ge saw an unexpected person at the door, and the brisk steps became a little stiff in an instant.
"...Senior sister?"
Gu Peijiu glanced at her, neither salty nor indifferent: "You're back?"
Xia Ge reacted and sneered twice: "Senior sister, why don't you go back so late, wait for me?"
Gu Peijiu gave a "hmm".
Xia Ge: "… "
"You skipped lunch, and there are evening classes." Gu Peijiu stated, "Master complained to me and told me to discipline you."
She looked at her, her brows inadvertently swept over the splendid puppet on the boy's waist, and her frowning brows relaxed slightly for a moment.
"Where did you go?"
"I... I was called away by that senior sister of... Jianfeng." Facing Gu Peijiu's gaze, Xia Ge's eyes floated, "In order to promote the friendly and harmonious development of Danfeng and Jianfeng, I will kill my relatives righteously... No, I will He died heroically, sacrificed himself a bit, and chatted with the senior sister of Jianfeng about life and so on... and didn't do anything."
"Playing truant for no reason." Gu Peijiu concluded.
Xia Ge denied it for the first time: "No! I..."
Gu Peijiu just looked at her and said nothing.
The moonlight in his eyes was vaguely cold.
Xia Ge lost his temper after pulling for a while, and after a while, his voice lowered, and honestly, "I'm sorry, Senior Sister, I played truant for no reason."
Gu Peijiu said, "Who are you talking to today..."
She paused, "Senior sister, what are you doing?"
Xia Ge: "..." Why did you go
Saying that if you eat meat and drink, you will be beaten.
Xia Ge tried his best to justify today's truancy theory, "The senior sister said she wanted to teach me something."
Gu Peijiu: "Teach what?"
Xia Ge thought for a while: "Bend the bow and shoot the eagle."
system:"… "
Gu Peijiu: "..."
"Big eagle?" Gu Peijiu narrowed his eyes slightly: "I don't know if that eagle is a bat or a wild goose?"
Xia Ge's expression drifted slightly, "Then what, maybe it's a pheasant..."
"... This is not to master one more technique."
Seeing that Senior Sister looked calm, Xia Ge honestly lowered her head, "...Senior Sister, I was wrong, you punish me for copying the elixir."
"I'm not your senior sister." Gu Peijiu's voice was indifferent, "You have so many senior sisters, you are not inferior to me."
Turn around to leave.
The long white flowers bloomed brilliantly, and the girl in the red and white maple clothes was covered in a hazy moonlight, and her back was slender, as if she would disappear after a few steps.
"No no no no!"
Xia Ge's mind was empty when he heard the words, and when he realized it, he had already run to Gu Peijiu's side and grabbed her sleeve. After a long pause, "...No."
Gu Peijiu looked sideways at Xia Ge who was pulling her sleeve.
The girl raised her head and looked at her stubbornly, her cat-like eyes filled with light, looking pitiful and cute, "No."
She whispered: "...there is only one."
Gu Peijiu withdrew his gaze, looked at the flowers and trees in the distance, and said nothing.
But did not go.
Xia Ge picked up Gu Peijiu's hand and whispered, "Maybe, that, senior sister can have many."
Gu Peijiu didn't look at her.
"But, but you are different."
The girl's voice was vaguely aggrieved.
Gu Peijiu said, "What's the difference?"
Xia Ge thought about it for a while: "...You are good to me."
There can be many, many sisters.
But so good to me, only you.
Gu Peijiu looked at the flower tree shrouded in the moonlight in the distance, and after a while.
"Like it?"
Xia Ge held Gu Peiju's hand, and for a while she didn't realize what she asked, but she said subconsciously, "I like it! I like Senior Sister the most!"
Anyway, just like it anyway!
Gu Peijiu's fingertips trembled slightly, and after a while, she whispered, "What I said was a puppet."
Xia Ge: "… "
Xia Ge's face turned slightly red, "...I like it, the puppet likes it too, Senior Sister...I like it too."
Gu Peijiu did nothing.
Xia Ge felt that the other party was still angry, and vowed: "Don't be angry, I will never skip school again, and I will never lie again. I listen to the class every day... I won't let myself get sick."
The moonlight is gentle, and the flowers and trees are brilliant.
At the end, Xia Ge suddenly felt a little sad, "If only I could do it, that would be great."
Gu Peijiu looked down at her subconsciously.
The girl's eyes were red and she looked sad.
Why can't it be done
Gu Peijiu paused, and finally didn't ask, just sighed slightly, "Why are you crying?"
Xia Ge: "I'm not a good boy."
Gu Peijiu: "It's good if no one is born."
Xia Ge's eyes were red: "But in the beginning, people are inherently good."
Gu Peijiu: "..."
Gu Peijiu thought for a while, and said, "It's not so bad that it's hopeless."
Xia Ge: "Then you're not mad at me anymore?"
Gu Peijiu: "Well."
Before Xia Ge could show a smile, he heard Gu Peijiu say, "You are not allowed to go to Jianfeng in the future."
Xia Ge: "… Huh?"
Gu Peijiu didn't look at her, "I heard it, say 'yes' or 'no'."
"You can say 'no' or lie to me and say 'yes'."
Xia Ge: "..." It means that she can lie, but she can continue to be angry...
Xia Ge whispered: "Yes."
Gu Peijiu looked at her.
Xia Ge raised his hand, "I didn't lie."
But he couldn't help it, "But, what should I do if something happens, I'll always go to Jianfeng."
Gu Peijiu: "You can tell me."
Xia Ge gave an "oh" and said, "Okay."
Xia Ge thought for a while, "Then you still punish me for copying the elixir?"
Gu Peijiu said, "Do you want to copy?"
Xia Ge immediately shook his head: "No, no, it's no good."
After the two finished speaking, Gu Peijiu said again: "The mid-term test will not be long, so don't play too much."
Xia Ge suddenly shuddered: "Ah? Still mid-term exams? What are you taking?"
Gu Peijiu looked at her.
Xia Ge: "… "
Xia Ge silently took out a persimmon from his pocket and quietly stuffed it into Gu Peijiu's sleeve, "That, Senior Sister, this persimmon is super sweet, I brought it to you from Jianfeng, I just wanted to give you a taste. come."
Speaking of which, he made another look of grievance, "Who knows that if you didn't say a few words, Senior Sister, you would be angry."
System: "..." You won't take out the midterm test without mentioning it.
Gu Peijiu: "..."
Xia Ge looked at her earnestly, the eyes of the two cats were bright.
The persimmon in his hand still carried the residual warmth in the girl's arms.
Gu Peijiu said, "What do you want to know about the test?"
"No, I didn't say that, haha, Senior Sister, please don't make assumptions about me..." Xia Ge smiled brilliantly, pulling on Gu Peijiu's sleeve to look at the moon, "The moon is really bright today, but if Senior Sister, you have to tell me. I, I can't help but know... This persimmon is so sweet."
System: "..." How can there be such a brazen person.
Gu Peijiu slowly picked up the persimmon, "Jianfeng's?"
Xia Ge vaguely had a bad premonition: "...Yeah."
"Hand out."
Xia Ge obediently stretched out his hand.
Gu Peijiu picked up Xia Ge's hand, put the persimmons away, and her eyes were light: "Then take it to bribe your senior sister of Jianfeng, she is so good, she will definitely tell you the answer."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Xia Ge: "… "
Xia Ge: "Ah Senior Sister! I picked this from Beast Peak!! Beast Peak!!"
