"Be prepared, don't let Master Nalan down." Uncle Chou said again.
His voice was very hoarse, and his body was in a strangely bloated state. The exposed skin on his body was also pitted, as if it had been ravaged by a severe snowstorm.
It seemed that there was no clean place in his whole body, except for his eyes.
Such a person looked very scary, but Ye Muxi heard a hint of unobvious concern in his hoarse voice.
Maybe Master Nalan specially asked him to take care of her.
Ye Muxi nodded: "Don't worry, master, I won't be kicked out."
There was no confident expression on her face, but her eyes were unexpectedly confident.
If she didn't clearly know that she didn't have any divine power, where did this confidence come from
"Believe you." Uncle Chou didn't say anything more. He just looked at her quietly, said this, and then turned and left.
Ye Muxi found that the way he walked was also very strange, as if he was carrying a thousand kilograms of boulders on his back. He was walking very heavily, one step at a time.
Although he clearly looks ageless, his figure is extremely stooped.
Ye Muxi frowned slightly: "Little book."
The encyclopedia that had slipped away slipped back again without knowing when: "I'm here! What are your orders, master?"
Ye Muxi said: "How long can you control your little brother?"
The encyclopedia said proudly: "It doesn't matter how long it takes! Give me a book and I can create countless little brothers for my master!"
With that said, the encyclopedia ordered his book brother to take action.
In a book, four or five thin pieces of paper fell off, and the paper danced around the encyclopedia, ready for use at any time.
Ye Muxi looked at a few thin pieces of writing paper on the ground, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Send them to monitor Elder Zhang and Ye Xueqian."
Encyclopedia immediately ordered his younger brother, and the pieces of paper immediately spread out and scratched in the direction of Elder Zhang and Ye Xueqian.
From a distance, one would just think that these pieces of paper are just scraps of paper blown around by the wind, not impressive at all.
At the corner, Uncle Chou stood outside the arch, and a piece of paper passed in front of him.
Uncle Chou lowered his head and stared at the paper.
The piece of paper seemed to have noticed Uncle Chou. He immediately froze and lay down pretending to be dead.
The books and paper are all controlled by the encyclopedia, and Ye Muxi is the owner of the encyclopedia. When the news came back through the paper, Ye Muxi replied: "One of our own."
It turned out to be one of our own!
The piece of paper quickly came to life again, jumping twice at Uncle Chou's feet, and seemed to tilt its body, as if it was raising its head to look at Uncle Chou, saying hello, and then flicking its head, majestic. He continued walking proudly.
Encyclopedia cursed at the back: "Don't embarrass me next time. Even my own people can't tell clearly whether I'm stupid or not!"
The originally majestic little brother instantly shrank into a ball of waste paper and rolled away.
Uncle Chou: “…”
He seemed to have discovered something remarkable.
A piece of paper not only runs by itself, but also rolls into a ball
Uncle Chou glanced in the direction of Ye Muxi with complicated eyes, and left with a troubled expression on his face.
Ye Muxi turned around and went back to her room. As soon as the door closed, a clear and pleasant male scent approached her.
"The servants of Shenhun Pavilion are so considerate. No matter what happens, they always come to you?" Lou Jingxiao said meaningfully.
"Uncle Chou is not a servant." Ye Muxi frowned and said, "He is Master Nalan's servant."
I also learned this from Wen Lao’s mouth. Uncle Chou is Nalan Hai’s medicine man.
The so-called medicine man is the person who tests medicine. In the Shenhun Pavilion, he only needs to listen to Nalan Hai's words.
Lou Jingxiao smiled half-heartedly: "He cares about you very much?"
Ye Muxi said: "Because he belongs to my master."
She didn't think it was anything. Nalan Hai was still her master, even though she hadn't learned how to make alchemy yet.
As for Uncle Chou, who was from Nalanhai, it was not surprising that he was ordered by the master to take care of her more.
Lou Jingxiao shrugged and said nothing more on this topic.
He looked at Ye Muxi with a smile and opened his arms: "Come on."
Ye Muxi narrowed his eyes: "What are you doing?"
Lou Jingxiao chuckled: "Aren't you going to force a kiss?"
Ye Muxi: "..."
Does he really look like someone who is about to be forcibly kissed? No matter how you look at it, he feels more like he is about to forcefully kiss someone, right
Lou Jingxiao's dark jade eyes blinked: "You don't have to force me, you can kiss me as you please. It doesn't matter how long you want."
Ye Muxi didn't trust him very much.
When I forcibly kissed this guy for the first time, he still felt like he was contaminated by something dirty. I guess he must have a serious mysophobia.
"I want two drops of your blood." Ye Muxi said, "If you give it to me, this step can be omitted."
"You want blood?" Lou Jingxiao withdrew his hand and said casually: "Of course, but the previous transaction... Xiao Xi'er also needs to consider it?"
Ye Muxi's face sank.
Lou Jingxiao slowly turned around, sat down on the imperial concubine chair, and said lazily: "Don't be unhappy, Xiao Xi'er. I'm making a deal with you for your sake. Your father doesn't want this crystal bead, even if he takes it He doesn’t have the strength to guard his hand, and it may even cause death.”
"How do I know if this deal you make with me will harm my father?" Ye Muxi asked coldly.
Hearing this, Lou Jingxiao laughed, as if she had told a funny joke.
"Xiao Xi'er, it seems that you are not clear enough. This deal is not necessary. If I want to harm your father, you can directly erase his spiritual imprint on the crystal bead now. Once the imprint on it is erased, Maybe your father will become a fool?" Lou Jingxiao played with the crystal beads in the palm of his hand and looked at her with raised eyebrows: "Want to give it a try, huh?"
This transaction is simply dispensable.
With his strength, he can snatch the crystal bead back now.
If she hadn't considered that the mark on the crystal bead was her father, and this little girl was very wary and eager to be nice to her, she would have doubted whether the other party had any purpose, so she had to propose it through a transaction. Her father automatically lifted it.
But that doesn't mean that he doesn't have the ability to forcefully erase it.
Ye Muxi was not stupid. When Lou Jingxiao said this, she understood that this deal would benefit her no matter what. The only thing they would lose would be the crystal beads.
However, if even a strong man like Lou Jingxiao were competing for the crystal bead, with his father's strength, if anyone knew that the crystal bead was in their house, they would surely get into even greater trouble.
Wasn't my mother's Song family destroyed because of the crime of harboring a jade
Thinking of this, Ye Muxi could only agree: "Okay, I promise to find my father and let him remove the mark on the crystal bead. However, I want two drops of your blood, and you have to give it to me."
Lou Jingxiao laughed, a deep laugh, like the wine buried deep in the cellar, with a mellow aftertaste.
"Here." He said, "However, I prefer another way."
Ye Muxi: "?"
Before she could react, Lou Jingxiao stretched out his long arms, pulled Ye Muxi into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her lips.
