Chapter 117 The Little Fox and the Scholar
Shui also looked indifferent, until he finished reading all the contents of the opened page of the book in front of him, then he closed the book in his hand unhurriedly, and gently placed it on the table.
"I heard from Yanggu that you are going to Beijing to take the exam?" Shui also looked up at him.
"Yes." Mo Chi nodded.
The other party's eyes on him were extremely indifferent, but they contained incomprehensible emotions. His white and slender hands were playing with the teacup in his hand, which shone brightly under the light, like a piece of fine art. Taste.
Shui also looked at him and said, "Do you know what I do?"
When Mo Chi heard his words, he wasn't surprised, but nodded lightly: "Yes, the prefect here."
"Yangu and I were already in this place when the emperor's grandfather was still in charge. Yunchu was brought up by me. He was born with a lack of energy in his mind and couldn't hold those things. Complicated matters, Yanggu and I's biggest wish is to hope that he can always be so carefree, after all, we will always protect him."
"Yanggu and I did not expect your appearance. You always give people a feeling that you can see through it at a glance, but in fact, only you know what you are thinking in your heart."
Mochi listened to his words, and looked at him quietly with a pair of dark and deep eyes. There was deep darkness in his eyes, and Shui smiled indifferently: "You are full of secrets."
Mo Chi didn't deny it, but heard him say: "Yun Chu likes you, you can tell without me telling you that, before, he never disobeyed me and Yanggu."
"You two really like each other. Yanggu and I won't interfere, but I want to remind you that if one day you do something wrong to him, I will definitely kill you."
In the end, Shui Ye's expression became fierce, his pale golden pupils were filled with air-conditioning and murderous intent, and the candlelight in the room was affected by his emotions, and the scarlet flames began to throb violently.
The flickering light made the expression on Mo Chi's face unreal.
The atmosphere was a little tense for a while, until Mo Chi spoke softly, with determination in his voice.
"You won't have that chance."
Shui also listened to his words, narrowing her eyes slightly.
Mo Chi turned his head to look at the tearful candle on the candlestick on the table, the emotion in his eyes was dark and unclear, but his voice was calm and unwavering, he said, "You won't understand how long I've been waiting for him."
The man's voice was low and hoarse, but even Shui was confused. He slightly raised one eyebrow, seeing that the other party was silent, and wanted to hear him continue, but Mo Chi didn't speak again, just turned around To look at him, eyes calm and indifferent.
"I know what you and Yanggu are worried about, but there will never be that day." His words were swearing, and Shui couldn't help chuckling, with a hint of sarcasm.
"Even if the world holds a sword around your neck and asks you to hand over Yunchu, you can still say such things like you are doing now."
Mo Chi didn't speak, but told Shui Ye the answer with his eyes.
Shui also looked at him, and slightly suppressed the expression on his face. It seemed that a century had passed, until the night wind outside the window came in through the casement, and the candle on the table was shaken. Only then did he slightly lower his eyelashes, avoiding Mo Chi's gaze.
His voice was a little ethereal, but it still reached Mochi's ears word for word: "The emperor today has a daughter who suffered from heart disease since she was a child. The imperial doctor asserted that she would not live until the age of 16, unless she got something , otherwise, you will surely die.”
"Do you know what that thing is?" Water also asked him.
Mo Chi's crow-like eyelashes trembled very lightly, so fast that he didn't even notice it.
Seeing that the man didn't answer, Shui also said to himself: "Seven orifices and exquisite heart."
"Do you know who has this seven-apertured exquisite heart?"
Under the candlelight, Mo Chi's face turned pale, his lips trembled slightly, but he still looked up at Shui Ye and replied, "Yun Chu..."
The man's voice was unsteady, and Shui also knew that he was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.
"Why do you think Yanggu and I put him in the mountains instead of taking him with you, and why do you think I entered the court as an official?"
Mo Chi didn't reply, but everything seemed to have an answer.
Shui also saw him like this, even though his temperament had always been extremely indifferent, at this moment his heart was still slightly moved.
"The year Yunchu first learned to transform into form, he was about four years old. To celebrate his cultivation, Yanggu took him down the mountain to watch the lantern festival. At that time, he was not as afraid of humans as he is now. Yanggu was careless, and the two were killed. The dense flow of people dispersed, and Yunchu searched for a long time, until the crowd gradually dispersed, he finally found the dying Yanggu in a dark and damp corner."
Shui also said this, his expression darkened in a rare way, and there was an undisguised killing intent in his eyes.
The scene when Xiao Yunchu appeared in front of his eyes with the wounded and dying Yanggu in his arms was too shocking. Until now, he can still clearly remember the feeling of his blood being frozen and his inability to control it at that time. Live with monstrous killing intent.
The careless man with a monstrous appearance was forced to reveal his true form by a group of mischievous children, and he hid in the wet and smelly ditch with no retreat, but he was found. Then, one stone after another fell like raindrops The ground landed on his soft snake, almost killing him. In the end, he was taken away by the rushing adults, who threatened to bring them back to make snake wine. If Yunchu failed to arrive in time, Yanggu would face Shui didn't dare to think about what would happen.
Shui also spent a lot of magic power to finally rescue Yanggu, and Yunchu also suffered from a serious illness. After waking up, he was afraid and resistant to human beings. Shui and Yanggu had no choice but to let him stay. on the hill.And later, the water that went down the mountain also saw the imperial list posted by everyone, looking for capable people and strangers, looking for the exquisite heart...
"I went down to the market and became the magistrate in order to be able to understand the movements in the capital at the first time, and to wipe out all the existences that might endanger Yunchu."
"Yun Chu stayed well on the mountain, but now I met you." Shui also looked at Mo Chi, his voice low and warning: "Mo Chi, you are going to Beijing to take the exam now, no doubt you are sending Yun Chu away." to them."
Mo Chi clenched his hands tightly on his knees: "I know."
"No, you don't know." Shui also interrupted him cruelly, and looked at him with a cold expression: "The old emperor has an extra Taoist priest, and the other party is definitely not an ordinary person. You can't beat him."
