Chapter Thirty-Fifth: A Place of Rest

Xi Meng was happy to see what they said, and hurriedly handed the grilled fish in his hand to Mu Zili: "Wu Mu, eat it! It's nothing special, it's just grilled fish. It's so boring just smelling it and looking at it! Come on, eat it

Look, you will still have a long time in the human world. You can’t go without eating. If there is no sun or moon, wouldn’t you starve to death?”

"This..." Mu Zili looked at the grilled fish in her hand, looking embarrassed, not knowing what to do.

Yifeng saw that he was still eloquent and talking freely just now, but now that Meng asked him to eat fish, he was in such embarrassment, which was really funny.

I dreamed that he was coy and reluctant to reach out to pick it up for a long time, and he didn't want to force it, so he had to take the grilled fish back.

"Forget it, I won't eat it if you don't want to eat it. Chongchong, eat more." He said and handed the remaining half of the fish to Yifeng. Seeing him taking it with a smile, he was in a slightly gloomy mood.

It suddenly became much clearer.

"Chongchong, why do you think the fish in Wuxi River smells like sweet potatoes?" Yifeng was eating happily, but when she asked this question, her face turned red and she coughed.

Xi Meng's lips curled up and she smiled slightly, her purple eyes full of teasing.

"I'm just asking casually, don't you have such a big reaction? Do you know the reason? Or maybe what Chongchong gave me was grilled sweet potatoes, but he lied to me and said it was grilled fish?"

Yifeng's thoughts were revealed, and in embarrassment, his handsome face turned slightly red. There was a flickering light in his blue eyes, and there was a hint of guilt. Although his behavior that day was not kind enough, it was really a helpless move.

Just because the fish in the Wuxi River are all extraordinary, and all of them have superb cultivation, how could they be willing to be her meal?

"I hope Meng'er can understand this matter. Even the youngest fish in Wuxi are much older than you and me. They usually treat each other as brothers and sisters. How can you harm them just for the sake of food and drink..."

Xi Meng's head tilted slightly, and she turned her head to see that his expression when he spoke was very silly, like a pedantic scholar who has no knowledge of the world, talking endlessly about great truths.

She had to interrupt him, otherwise she didn't know how long he would keep repeating, "Okay, sweet potatoes will be sweet potatoes, luckily they are delicious. I won't care about it, but I won't do it next time!"

Yifeng's blue eyes lit up and she nodded slowly.

The moon is at its zenith, and the night is already deep.

Xi Meng had a tired look on his face, his eyes were half-closed, and he was leaning against Yifeng, yawning constantly, chatting with Mu Zili about human affairs.

"Meng'er, have you ever thought about where you should go tomorrow?" Mu Zili held a branch in his hand and fiddled with the fire, raising his eyes and asking.

"You can go wherever you want. But right now, it's better to find a house to stay. I don't want to feed mosquitoes by the stream all night." Simeng stood up, patted the dust on his body, and raised his eyes.

Look into the distance.

But under this moonlight, everything in the world has fallen asleep, and only the three of them are still worried about where to live.

The yellowish moonlight poured down, softly shining on the corners of her skirt, and the faint purple added a bit of charm to the quiet night.

There was a faint woody fragrance in front of my nose, and Mu Zili's unique low voice floated in the air: "Come with me. When I was looking at the treetops just now, I found that less than ten miles ahead, there is an abandoned house where I can stay."

In the stillness of the night, the three of them walked slowly against the wind. In an instant, they saw a house vaguely emerging from the mist in front of them.

Xi Meng tugged on Mu Zili's sleeves, lazily flicking her sleeves to cover her forehead from time to time. The tiredness in her purple eyes grew heavier, and she wished she could sleep on the floor.

The three of them walked in the mist for about half a stick of incense, and finally saw a dark red carved lacquer door that was ajar. Looking in through the door, it was still covered in mist, making it difficult to see clearly.

"Are you sure you can live here? It's so scary. It feels like there's a gust of wind and I can't see anything clearly."

Xi Meng shrank, feeling a chill on the back of his neck. He held Mu Zili's arm tightly all the way, following his pace, raising his eyes from time to time and looking around, with a rare fear in his eyes. The original tiredness had long since disappeared.

.

"Don't be afraid, Meng'er." Mu Zili patted her thin shoulder and comforted her softly.

With a "squeak" sound, the carved lacquer door slowly opened outwards. Yi Feng waved his sleeves to brush away the fog in front of him. He saw a bluestone brick road in front of him. Both sides of the road were weeds half a person tall. At the end of the bluestone brick road,

It is a long corridor with no end in sight.

The three of them walked slowly, walked along the bluestone road and passed through the corridor, and their eyes suddenly opened up.

Amid the faint smell of green grass, the mist gradually dissipated, and several elegant green-tiled houses stood quietly in the night.

Xi Meng then let go of his guard a little, let go of Mu Zili's arm, walked forward quickly, and happily spun around in the courtyard. The lavender halo instantly brightened the originally dark courtyard.

"Haha, this place is really nice. Let's just stay here and make plans when we wake up tomorrow..."

While Xi Meng was talking, she stepped forward and opened the door. A gust of cold wind hit her face, and dust blew into her face, choking her and causing her to turn her head and cough violently.

Mu Zili's face was startled when he saw this, and his pale green figure jumped into the air. The next second, Shi Meng was helped to the center of the yard with a face full of shock. He gently raised his sleeves to brush away the dust from her hair and cheeks, which were as black as water.

His eyes were full of concern.
