Chapter 20 Ten Days Countdown (Sweet)

On the way home, the moonlight above me was as bright as the Milky Way pouring down, covering the earth with a layer of gentle white gauze, enveloping it with misty beauty.

Two figures, one on the left and one on the right, one tall and one short, are outlined by the bright moonlight. Just as the storybooks often describe, the years are quiet and peaceful.

"This cloak seems to be worth a lot of money."

It was Sheng Ji who was the first to break the silence.

When she was about to reach the door, she suddenly reached out and touched his hand and asked sideways.

Mu Huaice was originally thinking about the successor, and the touch of guidance made him stop in his tracks, his heart tingling.

"Aji, do you still like it?"

He also looked sideways, his clear black eyes shining with undisguised anticipation, like a cluster of stars in the dark night.

"Alright."

"That's good."

The ends of Mu Huaice's eyes curved beautifully.

This is the first time in his life that he has given a girl a gift.

Although the two of them were a couple in name only, he still hoped to protect her with all his strength and see her happy every day.

"It would be better if it could be converted into money." In this way, we can prepare more medicinal materials for Shiquan Dabu Decoction.

Mu Huaice: "..."

She wouldn't go back and pawn the cloak, would she?

Different from the relaxation of Sheng Ji and the other two, the atmosphere in the ghost doctor's shop was filled with worry.

"Still sleeping! Your identity has been revealed!"

The sleeping little girl Xiao Chan was pulled directly out of the bed by the ghost three-way.

"No way?"

Xiao Chan sat on the edge of the bed and kowtowed, "Old man, are you trying to trick me into learning magic again?"

Gui Santong slapped her on the back with hatred, "Your identity is of great importance, why should I joke about it with you?!"

"As for."

Xiaochan nodded calmly.

Ever since she was a child, he would remind her every time she didn't want to learn magic: "Your identity is so special. If you don't want to die, just learn it."

"...This time it's different."

Gui Santong was choked, and then he rubbed his embarrassed old face, and his serious expression changed naturally.

He paced around the room anxiously with his hands behind his back, and the wine gourd around his waist was stirring restlessly.

Thinking of something, he hurriedly stopped and said, "You haven't used that skill recently, have you?"

"No... right..."

Xiaochan looked away guiltily and tapped his index fingers unnaturally: "It seems, maybe, I might have saved a cluster of green plants outside the window."

"That's it? Is there anything else?"

"Gone."

"Sure?"

"Sure."

Seeing Xiaochan's repeated assurances, Gui Santong's heart returned to his stomach a little, "If you are asked, just say that the green plants are new, remember?"

Xiao Chan nodded and wondered: "Sister Sheng Ji is really that powerful?"

"Her identity is far more complicated than what you see."

Mentioning this matter, Gui Santong felt a little nervous. He raised his head and poured a sip of wine before sighing: "I won't be able to tell you for a while, but just remember, don't provoke her."

"But I think Sister Sheng Ji is quite nice. She is good-looking and has beautiful clothes. People always want to get close to her unconsciously."

As soon as he talked about this, Xiao Chan became more energetic, "If you hadn't stopped me, I would have wanted to play with her, and by the way, I could also see the handsome Guo Guo..."

"Play, play, and you will know how to play!"

Gui Santong called over with a slap, "I don't even know how I died when I look back!"

He gritted his teeth and pointed at her forehead, "Mu Huaice is determined to find the successor. If he knows your identity, Sheng Ji will join forces with him to capture you, and even I will not be the one."

Xiaochan was so frightened by him that he became honest.

But her dark eyes rolled again, and she exclaimed: "If I remember correctly, the green plants can only survive in summer!"

"Then what are you doing here? Hurry up and pack your things!"

The two ran away all night, but they didn't know that Sheng Ji "saw" all this.

Therefore, she woke up extraordinarily this morning, but she was not in a hurry.

The person next to the pillow is still asleep, and his sleeping face is still handsome and charming, with long eyelashes as dense as crow feathers, making even women jealous.

"One stick, two sticks, three sticks..."

Sheng Ji held his chin in one hand and counted with interest with the other.

Mu Huaice's eyes suddenly moved!

Sheng Ji quickly lay down and pretended to sleep.

Then he heard Mu Huaice sit up. He did not rush out of bed, but softly called: "Good morning, madam."

When getting out of bed, he does so very quietly, making very little noise, as if he has become extremely skilled at it.

"Good morning, my husband."

After Mu Huaice went out, Sheng Ji opened his eyes leisurely and couldn't help but frown.

Mu Huaice has always been punctual and self-disciplined, and this was the first time that she woke up earlier than him.

It turned out that he didn't just leave in a hurry every morning, but would quietly say hello to her.

I still remember that when we first met, he always kept his distance from her.

"Mu Lang, Mu Lang, are you starting to like me a little bit?"

Little did they know that Mu Huaice's "Good morning, madam" was meant to tease her.

He basically meditated all night, and when he noticed that she was awake, he pretended to close his eyes and lie down.

"More and more daring."

Mu Huaice laughed and cursed, and then went out early with Liu Ying.

According to the ten-day period, today is the eighth day and he cannot delay any longer.

On the other side, Sheng Ji took his time to chase Gui Santong and the two, but unexpectedly the snake woman was also there...

"This little girl has really good abilities. Would you like to come back to practice with me?"

Among the mountains in the suburbs, Snake Woman stood on the mountain road, blocking Gui Santong and Xiaochan.

Seeing that Xiao Chan was wearing rags, he seduced him again: "I have countless clothes and jewelry there."

"Really?"

Xiaochan pretended to be excited and looked innocent.

Of course, Xiao Chan remembered how Snake Woman had killed Mu Huaice that day, and she just happened to lie to her for a few pieces of jewelry, and she vented her anger.

"No! Children can't just take things from others."

The child is young and ignorant, but Gui San Tong is still afraid of Snake Po's strength.

But Snake Po just thought that he was a country man who had never seen the world, "It doesn't matter, I always stick to my word."

"We met by chance, and I don't know who you are. Your words are unfounded, so why don't you show your sincerity."

Xiaochan spread his hands towards her.

"He is quite clever."

Smart disciples are naturally rare, and Xiao Chan is neither humble nor arrogant, which is more in line with Snake Po's wishes.

She then waved her hand casually, and the two jade hairpins fell steadily into Xiao Chan's open palm.

Xiaochan accepted it as soon as he saw it was good, "My father and I are going to visit relatives, and when we come back, we will go to you to become our disciples. Just wait." Wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse are gone, hehe!

He turned around and left, but how could Snake Woman agree?

He didn't even ask what sect she belonged to, so it was obvious that he didn't really want to find her. It was just a blank slate!
