Chapter 16: The Temptation of the Underwater World
They walked all the way into the deep palace, occasionally a few little demons passed by, but they all froze in place as soon as they saw Cang Xuan, not daring to show their anger, and silently watched them go away.
Xi Meng naturally knew the reason for this, but she could only pretend not to see anything, lowered her head and followed Cang Xuan for a stroll.
I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Cangxuan Gourd, but Xi Meng just feels that the further he walks, the more damp and cold it becomes.
It wasn't until the blue light flickered in front of him that he couldn't open his eyes. Only then did Xi Meng realize that where he looked was a long stone staircase that could not be seen to the bottom, winding and submerging into the ground.
She was already standing on the edge of the steps. When she looked down, she was so shocked that she was speechless for a long time. It turned out that there was a green, blue and quiet place under the stone stairs. The damp and cool air just now emanated from here.
.
Swimming pool? Or is it underground? This Lord's hobby is really weird. He didn't bring her to swim, right? Uh... I really don't know this...
When Xi Meng was hesitating, Cang Xuan had already extended his right hand to her.
"Meng'er, come with me."
Following Cang Xuan's footsteps, he slowly walked down the stone staircase. Seeing the water mist flowing under his feet, Shi Meng was a little flustered and his steps were slightly disordered. He said: "Master, I am not used to water. Why don't we go up!"
Cang Xuan's red hair looked particularly dazzling against the blue light, and there was a smile in his eyes, "Meng'er, look."
Looking in the direction of his finger, colorful fish swam overhead from time to time, and water plants emitting seven colors of light fluttered in the wind.
Xi Meng's heartbeat almost stopped, how could there be fish above their heads? When they turned around in surprise, they found that the stone stairs were already several feet away behind them, but now they were wandering in the water, but they were not drowning at all.
The signs are the same as on land.
Next to them, Cangxuan, who was dressed in white and had red hair, was extremely charming. He raised his wide sleeves, and the extremely beautiful flying fish came over and danced around them.
"Underwater world...I'm actually walking in the underwater world. It's incredible!" Xi Meng looked at this dizzying and strange world, thinking that she could roam freely in the water. She couldn't control her inner excitement and tugged at the hem of her skirt.
Spin happily.
"Meng'er, do you like it?" Cang Xuan stepped forward and held her hand, his eyes filled with deep affection.
Xi Meng was overjoyed for a moment. If it weren't for Cang Xuan's sudden question, she would have almost forgotten Yifeng's explanation. The man in front of her was extraordinary. He was the elder of the demon world in the past, and he was feared by everyone in Lijing.
Lord.
She almost forgot that she was still in danger because of the momentary novelty and fun.
The reason why he tried every means to invite her to get together was because he had other motives.
Although he looks handsome and gentleman in front of me, almost the embodiment of Prince Charming. But the caterpillar and this butterfly have been practicing together for two thousand years. Regardless of their feelings, there are always childhood sweethearts, and his words will not be false.
The red-haired handsome man in front of her must be much more dangerous than what she saw, so it was better for her to be careful.
The melodious whale song came from the distance, bringing back the dreamlike thoughts.
Realizing that he was carried away, he hurriedly took his hand out of Cang Xuan's palm, took a few steps back, and gave him a professional smile: "Sir, it's getting late, I should go back."
Cang Xuan saw that she was cheerful and cute just now, but suddenly her expression changed and she was a little confused, "Meng'er doesn't like it here? Then let's go look elsewhere!"
"That's not what I meant, young master. Look, I've been out for several hours... uh... no, it's been several hours. My brother should be worried." Simeng quickly waved his hand.
"Brother? When did Meng'er have a brother? I didn't know?" Cang Xuan was stunned. Since he first met her in the pear forest thirty years ago, he has already found out about her life experience. She has no father or mother. She just followed her.
Madam Youmi just learned some cultivation methods, where did she get her brother from?
Xi Meng was startled, it's over, it's over... He forgot that Chongchong had said that he had spent a lot of effort to get this purple jade butterfly...
Now I can only come up with a random reason and hope it can get away with it.
"Young master, I don't know. My brother and I have been separated for many years, and we only met again a few years ago."
"Oh? Is this happening? I have been in this palace for a long time and rarely go out. I didn't know that Meng'er had an older brother. This is very good, very good." Cang Xuan's expression was stern, and there was a slight strange color in his eyes.
