Bihua Lingjun led Danyu into the building with soft gauze wrapped around the railings and fragrant fat.
The name of this brothel is ** Township, which is a very ** name, and the girls inside are also very beautiful and **.
Bihua Lingjun and Danyu stayed in the most expensive and exquisite room in the ** Village, Mianmian Pavilion, and called the most beautiful girl in the building. The elegant pavilion was immediately filled with soft whispers and lingering fragrance.
A girl in pink was playing the piano, a girl in goose yellow was pouring wine, and a girl in light green was peeling the orange peel with her slender fingers and picking up the orange petals with a thin bamboo stick. A girl in green then took them and brought them to Danjing's mouth.
The courtesan Xiangsi from the ** village snuggled up to Danxi, and gently pressed her bare hands on Danxi's shoulders, saying in a tender voice, "Master, are you serving me well? I don't have much strength in my hands, do you think it's too light?"
Danxun tasted a piece of orange peel and squinted, saying, "It's very light." Xiangsi immediately smiled and said, "My Lord likes it, that's good." Her soft breasts rubbed Danxun's arms intentionally or unintentionally, and her half-opened and half-closed clothes revealed her seductive whiteness above her bodice. Another top performer, Meilian, was also sitting on the soft couch leaning against Danxun, personally feeding Danxun slices of cakes such as cloud cakes and five-nut cakes, and occasionally tapping Danxun's waist and legs with her pink fists.
After Dan Yu ate another piece of five-nut pastry, he sighed with emotion: "Fu Li never fooled me, the brothel is really a good place." Bihua Lingjun was sitting nearby drinking tea and smiled and said: "As long as you like it."
The girl peeling oranges covered her mouth and laughed, "This gentleman is talking so seriously, just like you have never been to a brothel before."
Dan Yu said, "I have never been here."
Mei Lian smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you haven't been here before. We will look forward to your coming every day from now on. Mom also said that we must serve a distinguished guest like you well."
Not long ago, when Bihua Lingjun and Dan Yu stepped into ** Township, the madam He Mama and the eunuchs in ** Township saw at a glance that they were extraordinary. After all, Dan Yu and Bihua came from heaven, especially Dan Yu. Although he had restrained his aura and changed his appearance, he still had an unconcealable demeanor. ** Township is a big brothel in the capital. What kind of scenes has it not experienced, what kind of guests has it not seen? He Mama's old eyes, which had been refined in the oil pan, saw that the two were either nobles or high-ranking officials.
However, Mother He knew all the dignitaries and high officials in the capital, even the royal family and even the emperor, but she had never seen these two people before and they looked unfamiliar. Although one of the two guests was extraordinary, he looked around quietly after entering the door. It was obvious that he had never been to the building. Mother He immediately thought that there were foreign countries coming to pay tribute recently. I'm afraid this child is a special envoy of the foreign country, such as the prince of Java or the prince of Honeydew. The young man in green who had been reminding the child in secret should be his personal attendant who showed him the way.
After entering the elegant pavilion, Mother He personally handed over the name tag, and the eunuch brought tea and snacks. The young man in green shirt pushed a plate of five-nut pastry in front of the man in Confucian shirt and said, "This is a kind of pastry called five-nut pastry, try it." The man in Confucian shirt tasted a piece and immediately sighed, "It's so delicious." Mother He watched coldly from the side, and became more and more certain that this man was from a foreign country. It was a pity that he had never eaten good food in his own poor and remote place, and had never seen the delicacies of the Central Earth Celestial Empire. A small piece of five-nut pastry made him so amazed.
Mother He left the room with sympathy for the foreigners. She first called the girls that Bihua and Danyu had called aside and said, "The two in the room are probably foreigners who have come to pay tribute. It's their first time in a brothel. You must treat them well and let them see how gentle, beautiful, and talented the girls in our Celestial Empire are. This is a matter of honor and cannot be neglected. Let those foreigners open their eyes and know how rich our Celestial Empire is and how talented its people are."
Those girls had seen all kinds of guests. After entering the room, they could tell at a glance which of the two people in the room had a higher status. They all tried their best to deal with Dan Yu, and seemed to ignore Bi Hua.
Xiangsi continued to massage Danyu's shoulders, and Meilian continued to serve him snacks. Mother He wanted to let the foreigner experience the profoundness of Chinese pastries. There were dozens of snacks of various shapes and sizes on the table. Meilian fed him everything from Yunpian Cake and Wuren Pastry to Almond Golden Silk Cake. Danyu was amazed every time he ate one. Meilian wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief: "Master, are you okay?"
Dan Yu nodded and said, "Very good."
Mei Lian's eyes were as charming as silk: "Master said this cake is good, isn't it good for me?"
Dan Yu said, "That's great." Xiang Bihua sighed with deep emotion, "Qing Xi, it turns out that women in the mortal world are so considerate."
Bihua Lingjun drank her tea with a smile and did not reply.
Xiang Si smiled and said, "Look at what you said, young master. What do you mean by mortal world? Are you a god from heaven?"
Bihua Lingjun immediately said, "It was a slip of the tongue. Ahem, actually, this is our first time back in the capital. We have seen a lot and are almost thinking of the capital as a paradise on earth."
The girl who was peeling oranges finally felt that leaving Bihua aside was too obvious, and said with a sweet smile: "A paradise on earth? I thought the master didn't like our place, just sitting aside and ignoring us. Is it because we are not worthy of his eyes?"
Bihua Lingjun said: "No, no, I am here to accompany that master today, you just need to serve him well.
The girl peeling the orange smiled knowingly and picked up a slice of orange flesh with a small stick.
Suddenly, there was a rumble of thunder outside the window, and the sound of heavy rain falling. The girl who was playing the piano stopped and looked out the window and said, "Why is it raining again? It has been like this every day recently. It is almost autumn, but why is it raining more and more?"
Bihua Lingjun said, "That's right. I thought the moon was high in the sky and the night was beautiful tonight, but it suddenly rained heavily. By the way, before we came to the capital, I heard that the capital is the residence of the emperor and the court. It is a place where auspicious energy gathers and auspicious signs often appear. I didn't see any of them during the few days I was in the capital. I guess it's not a coincidence."
The girl playing the zither laughed and said, "Omens? They are all rumors. People often make the capital city sound magical, but most of them are false. I grew up in a brothel in the capital and have never seen any omen with my own eyes. I just often heard rumors."
The girl peeling the oranges said, "Speaking of strange omens, I have seen them. In the direction of the mountain outside the city, I saw colorful clouds and purple smoke with my own eyes."
The girl playing the zither said, "There are many rumors about the mountain outside the city. Some people say that they have seen a big monster in the lake in the mountain. They say that the clouds and mist are spit out by the monster. But what you want to see is a good omen. According to this rumor, those clouds and mist are not counted. They can only be regarded as a demonic omen."
The girl who took over the orange petals also interrupted and said, "Aren't good and bad omens all said by people? For example, some people say that the palace also..."
He said half of his words when he realized he had said the wrong thing and kept silent.
The other girls also lowered their heads and stopped talking. Bihua Lingjun pretended not to care and smiled. Just as she was about to speak again, Danyu on the soft couch yawned and said, "Clear the seat, I'm a little tired, let's go."
Xiangsi said, "You are tired and it is just right for us to serve you. Why do you want to leave? Do you really think we are not serving you well enough?" She entangled Danxu's sleeves with her hands.
Dan Yu glanced at her, and Xiang Si's expression suddenly became a little dazed. He let go of her hand. Bihua Lingjun immediately stood up and said with a smile: "I really have something important tonight. I will come again in the future, as long as the girls are willing to receive me." Meilian curved her eyes and smiled: "You are too polite, and I don't know what to say. Then I won't delay the business of the gentlemen. Don't forget that we will look forward to your coming every day from now on. It's just that the rain may still fall, why don't you two sit for a while?"
Bihua Lingjun said: "No, no, how could we forget. We would like to stay here for a long time, but the matter is urgent, so we have to leave."
When Bihua and Danxun stepped out of the gate of ** Township, Mother He specially gave them two umbrellas to show that the Celestial Empire is a country of etiquette and hospitality.
Bihua Lingjun walked into the rain, raised his hand to catch some rain water, paused, and opened the umbrella.
Dan Yu had already opened the umbrella, looked at it in his hand, turned it, and then raised it and walked to Bihua Lingjun: "Qingxi, where are we going to rest?"
Bihua Lingjun said: "Your Majesty, this rain seems to be a little strange, why don't we investigate at night?"
Dan Yu said casually, "Oh, there is plenty of time, right? There is no need to rush. I am a little tired, so let's find a place to rest first."
Bihua Lingjun could only follow his advice and found an inn along the street that looked decent. When he arrived at the counter downstairs, the innkeeper said, "Would you two guests like two upper rooms?"
Bihua Lingjun was about to respond when Dan Yu said, "One room is enough. It's raining heavily tonight. I'm afraid there will be many guests staying at the hotel. We only need one room. Let's give the other one to others."
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said, "Okay."
Naturally, Bihua Lingjun had no choice but to obey.
The waiter led Danyu and Bihua into the room. The upper room had been changed to new bedding and tea sets. After a while, he brought in a bathtub filled with hot water and placed it in the middle of the room. He said, "Don't worry, my two guests. This is definitely a new bathtub that has never been used before. Our shop often entertains distinguished guests, and this new bathtub is specially prepared for them."
Dan Yu smiled and nodded, "Very good."
The boy left happily.
Dan Yu walked over and locked the door, then stood beside the bathtub, looked at Bihua Lingjun with a smile and said, "Qing Xi, if you are very tired, you can take a bath first."
Bihua Lingjun looked at the bucket, then looked at Danyu, and smiled: "I am not short of money, how dare I come before the throne? Please go first, Emperor."
Dan Yu did not refuse and said, "Okay." He undressed and stepped into the tub. Bihua Lingjun took his clothes. When the Immortal Emperor bathes, he must be served. Bihua Lingjun walked to the tub, rolled up his sleeves and picked up a cloth to wipe Dan Yu's back. Dan Yu squinted his eyes and soaked in the tub. He said, "Qing Xi, I remember when I was a tiger cub, you helped me bathe every day. I missed you all the time."
Bihua Lingjun said: "It is my honor to serve the emperor in bathing."
As she spoke, she applied pressure with a wet towel to a certain spot on Danxu's back. When Danxu shamelessly pretended to be a tiger cub that day, Bihua bathed him and she remembered that he liked to be touched here the most. Sure enough, after the pressure was applied, Danxu hummed with satisfaction.
After a while, Dan Yu finished bathing. Bi Hua Ling Jun called the waiter to change the water and went to bathe. Dan Yu was half leaning on the bed to take a nap. He half-closed his eyes and watched Bi Hua Ling Jun enter the tub. He immediately stood up and walked to the tub: "Qing Xi, I will also wipe your back."
Before Bihua Lingjun uttered the words "I am not worthy of this honor", Dan Yu had already picked up the bath towel and wiped his back.
Before Dan Xun came to the mortal world, he called a few minor gods to his seat and asked them about some situations in the mortal world. Among them, there was a place called an inn that he longed for as much as a brothel.
The inn has beds and quilts, and the best thing is that they will send a bathtub and hot water to the room for guests to take a bath. Imagine if you only have one room, when it's time to take a bath and rest...
First have some fun in a brothel, and then stay in an inn with Qingxi. This is Dan Yu’s little plan for his trip to the mortal world.
Although Dan Yu and Bi Hua Ling Jun had slept on the same bed for a long time, they had never seen each other bathing and being naked. This time, he touched Qing Xi, who was not wearing any clothes. Although it was just her back, he didn't know when he would have to wait for the next time, so Dan Yu rubbed Bi Hua Ling Jun's back again and again, touching it to his heart's content. Bi Hua Ling Jun felt that Dan Yu was gently massaging her shoulders. Dan Yu said softly, "Qing Xi, today in the brothel, that mortal woman treated me like this, and I felt very comfortable. Do you like it? Are you comfortable?"
Bihua Lingjun said: "Comfortable."
Dan Yu smiled contentedly, but fearing that Bihua Lingjun would become suspicious, she said, "I am very happy to go to the brothel today. When you are free tomorrow, are you willing to go with me again?"
Bihua Lingjun's voice was indeed very calm, without any suspicion: "The emperor still wants to go, I will accompany you."
Finally, Bihua Lingjun finished bathing. Dan Yu reluctantly returned to the bed and half-lay down. After the bathtub was taken away, Bihua Lingjun locked the door. Dan Yu said, "Clear the bed, come and sleep." Dan Yu moved to the inside of the bed, and Bihua Lingjun lay down on the outside. Dan Yu covered Bihua Lingjun with the thin blanket that had been put on her body in advance. The bed was a bit narrow, and Dan Yu took the opportunity to touch Bihua twice while lying down completely, and Bihua Lingjun didn't seem to notice.
After lying in the dark for a while, Dan Yu said, "Qing Xi, do you go to that brothel often? I see you seem to be very familiar with the place today."
Bihua Lingjun said: "It's okay, I've been there a few times."
Dan Yu said, "You went to the brothel, probably just to sit there, or because you had something to do."
Bihua Lingjun said: "Of course, if I want to do something deeper, I dare not, because it will violate the heavenly rules."
Dan Yu said lazily: "You don't have to worry about the Heavenly Rules when practicing dual cultivation with me. But you don't want to, alas!"
After sighing, he turned over and there was no more movement.
36
The next day, when the sun was high in the sky, the Immortal Emperor Danjing got up. He had touched Bihua countless times last night, and the aftertaste was still there. He felt very satisfied. He opened the window and admired the morning sun on earth, feeling very happy.
Afterwards, Qingxi took the initiative to make an appointment to go to the streets of the mortal world to taste the snacks of the mortal world, which was even more pleasant.
At one stall, people eat a bowl of millet porridge and a tray of steamed dumplings.
At two stalls, I had a bowl of tofu pudding and two fried dough sticks.
At three stalls, I ate a bowl of soy milk, two fried cakes, and a mushroom and rapeseed bun.
At four stalls, I had a bowl of oil tea and a pancake with green bean sprouts. I was very happy and felt that the world was really good. However, when I was drinking tofu pudding and eating fried dough sticks, the stall owner recommended tea eggs. I saw that in a small pot, there were at least dozens of chickens cooking, and there was a blazing fire under the pot. The soup in the pot was bubbling. I couldn't help but feel a little sad. Fortunately, Qing Xi comforted me and relieved me. His words and eyes were full of tenderness, so I didn't care anymore.
After eating the pancakes with green bean sprouts, Dan Yu took the handkerchief handed to him by Bihua Lingjun and wiped the corners of his mouth. Bihua Lingjun said, "This street has come to the end, and the city gate is in front." Outside the city gate, the green mountains in the suburbs of Beijing seemed to be right in front of him. Bihua Lingjun said, "Since we are already here, why not go over and take a look?"
Dan Yu looked at the mountain thoughtfully and hummed.
Just now, when I was eating along the street, I heard a lot of gossip at the stalls. The emperor who seemed to be possessed by a demon had killed more than half of the ministers in the court. His five brothers, more than thirty concubines, and twelve or thirteen princes and princesses were all killed by him. It is said that the imperial city is now like purgatory. Many ministers in the court have fled the capital and the world is in chaos.
It is said that the emperor suddenly started a killing spree a few months ago. There are many mysterious reasons for this. Most people say that the emperor was possessed by a big monster. Others say that on a stormy night with thunder and lightning, they saw a strange black shadow falling from the sky and landing in the imperial city. From that day on, the emperor's temperament changed drastically.
It is said that one of the emperor's concubines once secretly invited a magician into the palace to suppress the evil spirit in the emperor. The next day, the magician was disemboweled, his heart and lungs dug out, and thrown out of the door. The concubine was also hacked to death.
Moreover, the weather in the capital has been very abnormal recently. Sometimes the sun is shining brightly and the moon is in the sky one second, and the next second the sky is full of dark clouds and rain. So everyone speculated that the monster attached to the emperor might have something to do with water.
Bihua Lingjun and Dan Yu stood at the foot of the green hill. Bihua Lingjun looked at the hillside in front of him and said to Dan Yu, "Your Majesty, what do you think about those rumors in the market?"
Dan Yu narrowed his eyes and asked, "Rumors? What rumors?"
Bihua Lingjun said: "It's the gossips of mortals at the snack stall."
Dan Yu said, "Oh, I was so absorbed in tasting the food of the mortal world at that time that I didn't notice it."
Bihua Lingjun looked at the mountain in front of him again: "I feel that there is something unusual about the mountain in front of me. I'm afraid there is something strange. How about..."
Dan Yu immediately smiled and said, "Qing Xi, if you want to go into the mountains to have a look, of course I will accompany you."
This mountain is like a dragon bone, winding and circling, not very high. Bihua Lingjun and Danyu walked towards the deep stream between the mountains. The grass was knee-high and the ancient trees were towering. Birds, beasts, insects and snakes sensed the strong fairy air and hid in their nests in fear, not daring to show their heads. Bihua Lingjun walked forward, through the wild grass and old trees, and walked to the deepest part of the mountain stream. Several upright cliffs like knife-cut cliffs were covered with moss and surrounded by a pool of water.
Bihua Lingjun stood by the pond, Danxu stopped beside him, Bihua Lingjun bent down and stirred the water: "I'm afraid this is the place." He stood up straight and suddenly said to the pond: "I have found your whereabouts, I wonder if you can come out and see me."
The surface of the Qingtan Lake was calm and motionless. Bihua Lingjun continued, "I am Bihua Lingjun of the Heavenly Court. I am ordered by the Jade Emperor to investigate the madness of the emperor on earth. Your Excellency caused the rain yesterday, and I was able to detect his presence and find this place. The emperor's madness may have nothing to do with you, but I believe you know something about the reason. Please come out and see me."
The water in the pond was still like a mirror, smooth and smooth, without even a bubble.
Bihua Lingjun touched his chin helplessly, and Dan Yu beside him suddenly sighed.
After he finished sighing, Dan Yu stared at a certain spot on the edge of the pond and said slowly, "Fu Li... How did you become such a shabby person... But fortunately, I thought you turned into smoke, but now I can still see you. Even if you look like this, it's better than being gone."
Bihua Lingjun slowly turned his head and frowned: "Emperor, may I ask who... are you talking to?"
Dan Yu let out another long sigh and raised his sleeve to point somewhere by the pond.
Bihua Lingjun looked straight up and finally saw a gecko the size of a finger lying in the crevice of the rocks beside the pond.
The gecko's body was covered with bumps, similar in color to the moss on the stone, so Bihua Lingjun had not noticed it lying in the cracks of the stone. Bihua Lingjun stared at it straight, and the two words that Dan Yu had just uttered kept floating in his mind - Fu Li Fu Li Fu Li Fu Li Fu Li...
Dan Yu said, "Hey, Qing Xi, I told you not to blame me. Actually, as soon as I arrived in the mortal world yesterday, I realized that Fu Li was nearby, but I thought that he had been hiding for so many years and didn't want to show his face. He must have changed into someone else and was afraid of being seen. After all, we have been friends for so many years, so I didn't tell you. I hope you won't blame me."
Fu Li, the Immortal Emperor Shenxiao, when the Heavenly Court was first established, it was ruled by three emperors, with the Jade Emperor in the center as the leader, and the Immortal Emperor Shenxiao Fu Li and the Immortal Emperor Zixu Danjue on the left and right. In the classics of the Heavenly Court, the Immortal Emperor Fu Li was originally a green dragon with a strong body, with his head in the far east and his tail in the far south, and he could cover the sky and the sun with his breath. However, Bihua Lingjun also understood that the descriptions in the classics were often a bit exaggerated. For example, the Immortal Emperor Zixu Danjue beside him was described in the classics as having a noble character, humble and benevolent. The left wing carried the bright light of the sun, and the right wing flashed the bright and quiet light of the moon. There was also a holy halo on his head, shining and without any flaws.
But the difference between the Azure Dragon and the gecko is really big. For example, Dan Yu, it was just a phoenix that turned into an egg, which is still reliable. Just as Bihua Lingjun was astonished, a muffled sneer came from the cracks in the stone, and then the moss-colored gecko climbed onto the big stone and began to swell rapidly.
Bihua Lingjun watched it swell and swell… until it finally swelled into a gigantic gecko with a head and body that was almost as big as three houses. Its eyes, which should have been a pair of tiny eyes, were as round as the full moon on August 15th. Its eyelids drooped, and it glanced at Bihua Lingjun and Danxu, sneered again, and said in a muffled voice, “Danxu, stop pretending, you are doing it on purpose. This little immortal is so stupid, he was howling at the water skin even when I was right in front of him, how could he possibly figure out what I was doing. You must have brought him here to laugh at me. Originally, when I heard that you turned into an egg, I thought you would live in the shell from now on, but yesterday I suddenly sensed that chicken feather in you, and then I realized that you had actually come out of the shell, so I expected that you would come to cause trouble, and sure enough, you came here with this little immortal today.”
Dan Yu just sighed, and then said, "Fu Li, when will you be able to correct your suspicious habit? Don't say that I only found out yesterday that you didn't turn into a gust of wind. Even if I knew it earlier, we have been friends for so many years, and you should know my character. How could I bring Qing Xi to see you laugh? It was me who dragged Qing Xi to the inn yesterday and kept him there for you all night."
Bihua Lingjun hurriedly said: "That... Report to the Emperor, I did find this fairy myself, Emperor Danyu..."
Fu Li seemed not to have heard at all. His eyelids drooped again and he sneered, "Character? It's really interesting to hear the word character from your Danxie. Little fairy, you don't have to cover up for that old pheasant. He is not a good bird. Did he take you to stay at the inn last night? Haha, after all these years, your little hobby has really not changed at all, Danxie."
78th Floor
Dan Yu put his hands behind his back and shook his head: "Ah, Fu Li, no matter what you say, I am very happy to see you. I went to the brothel yesterday to remember you. Do you remember that you told me that the brothel was the best place for me to go? So when I saw everything in the brothel yesterday, I thought of you. You see, I really miss our friendship all the time.
You have become a gecko, but you don't need to feel inferior. I told you that all living things have their beauty, and you should look at them with a normal heart, just like you are now. You can still swell up quite a lot, at least you are a big gecko, which is very outstanding among geckos." Dan Yu said, Fu Li seemed to swell up even more, Bihua Lingjun hurriedly laughed twice, and said with a bow: "I, the little fairy, also apologize to the emperor. It is because the little fairy's immortal power is shallow and I have never recognized the emperor's true identity. My words and attitude just now were very offensive. Please forgive me, the emperor." Fu Li drooped his eyelids and said slowly in a muffled voice: "It doesn't matter. I have been here for many, many years. From heaven to the mortal world, no immortal has seen my breath. If it is really you who identified the traces from yesterday's rain, it is not easy to find this place."
Bihua Lingjun was standing opposite Fu Li's huge gecko head. From Fu Li's words, he could sense a hint of sadness. Bihua Lingjun asked tentatively, "There are so many impurities in the mortal world. Why doesn't the emperor return to heaven?" Fu Li was silent for a while, then said, "I want to rest here quietly. If I return to heaven, I will definitely have many troubles. Besides... Alas, how can you, a little god, understand?"
Bihua Lingjun said nothing more.
Dan Yu sighed again: "Fu Li, being a gecko is really not shameful. You see, when I turned into an egg, I still stayed in the heaven. It was Qing Xi who asked the Jade Emperor to take care of me at that time. He was very careful and attentive, so that I could successfully come out of the egg. After I came out, he also took care of my daily life and bathing. You can do the same after you go back. How long will you waste like this? You see, not only are you still a gecko, but your tongue is enlarged when you speak."
Fu Li lay there in silence, without responding. After a while, he said to Bihua Lingjun, "Are you here in the mortal world at the order of the Jade Emperor to investigate the affairs of this emperor?"
Bihua Lingjun said: "That's right. I would also like to ask the Emperor..."
Fu Li narrowed his eyes and said, "Oh, just in time." He looked at Bihua Lingjun from under his drooping eyelids and suddenly changed the subject, "Was that old pheasant Dan Yu just bragging, or was it true? Did you really ask the Jade Emperor to take care of the old phoenix next to you and personally serve him to eat, sleep and bathe?"
80th Floor
Bihua Lingjun paused in silence. When Danyu disguised himself as a tiger cub, he had indeed fed it, coaxed it to sleep, and personally bathed it and combed its fur every day. These were indeed ironclad facts...
Dan Yu stood beside him with his hands behind his back, smiling with his eyes squinted. Bihua Lingjun paused and nodded.
Fu Li looked at Bihua Lingjun again with his eyelids drooping. His eyes were slightly different from before. After a moment, he spoke with a hint of admiration: "I didn't expect that there would be such a strong person among the younger generation of immortals. In this case, you should be able to solve the task assigned by the Jade Emperor this time without any effort. In addition, I have another matter to entrust to you.
Fu Li's huge gecko head shook, and suddenly he opened his mouth and spit out something.
It was a small dark blue ball that fell in front of Bihua Lingjun, squirmed for a bit, gurgled weakly, and then stood up while shaking its four somewhat soft claws.
It turned out to be a young Qilin. The horns on its head had not yet taken shape, and looked like two bulges. Because Fu Li had hidden it in his mouth, its body was wet, and its four hooves seemed unable to support its body, so it was shaking a little. It raised its pair of dark round eyes to look at Bihua Lingjun, and then uttered a weak sound.
Bihua Lingjun looked at it and suddenly felt as if something was tickling his heart, and a special feeling of pity emerged...
Fu Li spat out the little Qilin, and his speech became much clearer, no longer muffled: "This Qilin is the guardian Qilin of one of the emperor's brothers. The house it was protecting has been killed. It should have lost its life, but it was lucky enough to escape to me. I have been protecting it, but I can't take care of it with my current magic power. You should take it back to heaven."
Bihua Lingjun bent down and gently held the little Qilin in his arms. The Qilin rubbed against his arms, cooed twice, and then lay down and fell asleep obediently. Bihua Lingjun couldn't help but smile. After a moment, he remembered to say to Fu Li: "Thank you, Emperor, for entrusting me." He lowered his head to look into his arms, stretched out his fingers, and gently wiped away the saliva that flowed from the little Qilin while he was sleeping.
Dan Yu was still standing beside him with his hands behind his back, squinting his eyes and looking at him.
