When Zi'an said this, Xiao Tuo's discerning voice rang out from outside the door, "I just said it, I just said it like that, I didn't lie... woooo"
His mouth was obviously covered, and then there was a rustling sound, and it could be heard that poor little Xiao Tuo was being dragged away.
Murong Jie pricked up his ears and listened for a moment. He curled his lips into a cold smile and asked Zi'an, "Do you want to see a good show?"
Zi'an said, "I really want to see it."
Murong Jie stretched out his hand and said, "Lend me Scarface."
"Scar Rope? What's the use of this broken rope?" Zi'an handed him the Scar Rope.
Murong Jie took it, wrapped it around his wrist, then stood up and walked to the table to pour a glass of wine, saying, "If more than a hundred snakes suddenly come to the door, this jar of wine will be yours."
Zi'an leaned over and heard him talking, he couldn't help but laugh, "Are you saying that Scar can summon snakes?"
"It's absolutely true. You will know it soon." Murong Jie said.
Zi'an naturally didn't believe it. Who would believe such a weird thing
However, after Scarlett was soaked in wine, a strange smell came out. Murong Jie asked her for a dagger, cut his finger, and dripped blood. The strange smell turned into a bloody smell.
It’s strange to say, this strange smell makes the smell of blood very strong. If you don’t know, you would think there is a large pool of blood in the new house.
"Let's see!" Murong Jie pulled Zi'an mysteriously to the crack in the door. There were a few pairs of eyes in the crack. Those eyes were obviously a little surprised. They stepped back suddenly, and heard "Aiya" sounds one after another, and a large group of people fell down.
"What is this?" It was Su Qing's voice, followed by a shrill cry, "There's a snake, there's a snake."
Screams rang out one after another, and in less than a moment, everyone disappeared without a trace.
The two men laughed and opened the door, only to see more than a hundred snakes rushing in.
Murong Jie cried out secretly, "Not good!"
He slammed the door shut and heard the snakes piled up outside the door, making hissing sounds.
Murong Jie's face turned pale. He didn't like these cold things anymore.
Zi An was overjoyed, "Are you afraid?"
Murong Jie said angrily: "What's so funny?"
"A man is afraid of snakes?"
"I'm not afraid, I just don't like it." He was not really afraid, as he had been in the bamboo forest of the prime minister's residence before. He just didn't like it, especially when there were so many of them, it was creepy just to look at.
——I am the dividing line of a strong scar——
A flute sound was heard in the distance, and in a moment all the snakes were gone.
"You still want me to clean my ass!" Aunt Ah She put down her flute, snorted, and looked back at the Empress Dowager, "Should we go to the bridal chamber?"
The Empress Dowager said calmly: "No!"
"You're not even going to the listening room?" Ah She was a little surprised, "Aren't you the one who likes it the most?"
"There's nothing good to hear. Nothing will happen tonight," said the Empress Dowager.
In the new house.
Zi'an held Scar's rope curiously, "Pouring wine can summon snakes? What's the principle behind this?"
Murong Jie said nonchalantly: "The ancestors gave three explanations. The first one is that Scarlett has become a spirit, a snake spirit. The second one is that Scarlett is possessed by an evil spirit. This evil spirit likes to drink alcohol, and if you give it alcohol, you can tell it to do things. The third one is that Scarlett is made of special tree bark. When he drinks alcohol and blood, it will emit a strange smell. Snakes like this smell very much."
Zi'an automatically substitutes the third type, something like snake spirits or evil spirits, anyone who believes them is an idiot.
The third explanation is still reasonable. She did smell a strange odor just now, and snakes are quite sensitive to the smell of blood, so it is not surprising that it can attract nearby snakes.
Zi'an picked up Scar Rope. He used to despise it, but now he felt it was a treasure. Indeed, the Soul-Snatching Ring was not as effective as this. The bad thing about it was that it required wine or blood.
Zi'an saw the book on the table and asked curiously, "What book is this?"
Murong Jie snatched it away and said, "Don't look at it. There's nothing to see."
Zi'an had already opened the first page, and when he saw the pictures inside, his eyes widened, "This is a secret book!"
"Well, it's the secret book of practicing martial arts, given to me. You don't need it if you don't practice martial arts." Murong Jie hid the book in his sleeve pocket and said righteously.
Zi'an hummed and looked at Murong Jie, "Okay, what should we do next?"
Murong Jie felt a little uncomfortable, "Maybe, eat something first?"
Zian nodded, "This is a good suggestion."
She sat down first, then looked at the two golden cups tied with red ribbons, and suddenly thought, "Should we drink from the same cup?"
Murong Jie groaned, "It seems that this is necessary."
Zi'an poured the wine, and the wine flowed quietly from the pot into the cup. Only then did Zi'an feel a sense of reality in his heart.
She couldn't help but look up at Murong Jie, who was also looking at her. The series of events that happened today made him feel like he was dreaming.
"Murong Xia Zian." He called out, a little proudly. She was going to use his last name.
Zian smiled, "Yeah."
He laughed too, and they both looked a little silly.
"Here!" Zi'an handed him the wine glass, sat closer, and stared at him, "Your Majesty."
Murong Jie hummed, and the two of them got closer and closer, almost with their foreheads touching.
Suddenly, the two of them burst into laughter. Zi'an put down his cup first, laughing so hard that tears came out. "No, no, Murong Jie, we can't get along this way now. I can't stand your pretend affection."
Murong Jie breathed a sigh of relief, "I can't stand your hypocrisy either."
Zian shrugged, "Okay, you see how we get along, what should we do?"
Murong Jie said calmly: "We should get along the same way now as we did before."
This is a process, isn't it
"Okay, let's prepare the wedding wine first." Zi'an said.
Murong Jie held the wine in his hand and held hers. He looked at her star-like eyes and bright face. He couldn't help but think of the content of the book he had just read. He couldn't help but drink it in one gulp, "Drink it quickly!"
Zi'an also drank. After he finished, before she put the cup down, she saw him stand up and hug her, holding her horizontally in the air. She was so scared that she quickly grabbed his shoulders and asked, "Are you crazy?"
Murong Jie threw her directly onto the bed. He raised his hand and the curtain fell heavily, covering the dragon and phoenix candles.
At some point, the people who were scared away by the snakes came back, put their ears against the doors and windows, and listened quietly to the movements inside.
However, the dialogue in it is eye-opening... well, eye-rolling.
"What are you talking about? That's not how you take it off. Hey, do you understand? I can do it myself."
"What don't you understand? I've seen countless women. Let go, I'll do it."
"You pulled my hair, idiot."
"Please bear with this damn ragged clothes..."
Then, there was a long silence.
After that, someone got up and hurried to the candle, "Let me read a book."
"What book are you reading?"
"Secret book."
"Oh my god, what secret book are you looking at right now? Why don't you ask me? I am your ancestor!"
There was an uproar outside the door. The master of sex? I can't tell!
