In the east of Xiaoyushan City, there is a three-story pavilion halfway up the mountain, built on the back with a steep wall. It is stacked on top of the cliff, and it looks like a relief sculpture embedded between cliffs.
A winding plank road extends from the mountain roadside not far from the roof, winds down the cliff, leading to the platform at the entrance of the attic.
The Chiwen standing on both ends of the ridge of the roof is neither a dragon nor a phoenix, but looks like two apes with curved tails. The big and small beasts on the ridge are also several small monkeys of different shapes; they are very unique.
In the building with doors and windows closed, there is a storm of blue smoke in the dim hall on the first floor; the pillars and flying covers carved with fairy peach patterns are hung with white silk. In the middle of the depth, there is a table of incense against the wall, with a one on it.
The tablet, book: the five big characters "The position of Wu Zhiqi".
In front of the tablet are incense burners and candlesticks and some fruit offerings, all of which are peaches and stews that Wu Zhiqi likes to eat.
In front of the incense table, a young woman stood, wearing plain clothes, staring silently at the spiritual position in front of her, dazed in vain.
The candlelight that was dying and dying made her face with a faint pain dark and unstable. With the light of the fire, it was vaguely visible to her eyebrows, a dark orchid-like forehead makeup was thorned.
The lifelike petals are so delicate and radiant, and they exude a gentle and elegant beauty. However, they perfectly cover up the scar on her eyebrows. If you don't look closely, it's really hard to see the earthworm-shaped shaped like an earthworm.
Common scars.
The rest of the woman's body was exactly the same as the normal human soul; only on both sides of her forehead were a pair of celestial dragon horns that were only two inches long.
"Mother." Wu Xiaohui, who had grown up a lot, ran down the second floor along the handrail of the stairs, stood under the flying cover in front of the hall, and said to the woman: "The rice is ready,
Come and eat quickly.”
"Little Hui, eat first." The woman said in a hoarse voice, then picked up three brand new incense sticks from the incense table, lit it on the candlelight beside the incense burner, skillfully replaced the incense burner and was about to burn it all.
The fragrance.
The woman finished everything, but Wu Xiaohui had not walked away, but just jumped up, grabbed the hanging from the flying cover with one hand, and hung it in the air and looked at the woman silently. The woman did not look back, but still looked at her.
Holding the tablet, without moving.
"Dongdongdongdongdongdong." Suddenly, a knock came from outside the door.
Wu Xiaohui was slightly stunned, then turned around and looked towards the gate, and asked loudly: "Who?"
"I, Uncle Xiao, open the door quickly." Then the knock on the door came to an abrupt end, and Xiao Shizhu's voice sounded again: "I brought you your favorite osmanthus cake and candied haws."
"Uncle Xiao!" As soon as he heard this familiar voice, Wu Xiaohui's face was immediately filled with joy. He jumped to the ground and jumped to the door in three or two steps.
Wu Xiaohui opened the door and looked out, and his monkey eyes dripped; but he saw that Xiao Shizhu was indeed holding two packets of osmanthus cakes and a few strings of candied haws in his hand, and the corner of his mouth suddenly drooled.
Come.
Xiao Shizhu, who was standing outside the door, looked at the little monkey blankly, and inadvertently climbed up to his eyebrows. He had only been away for half a year, and the little monkey demon had grown taller than before. His body was more than before.
Much stronger.
Especially his arms and muscles and beard. The last time Xiao Shizhu saw him, the change was not a little bit bigger. If Xiao Hui's hair was not gray, it would be like Wu Zhiqi.
When he thought of Wu Zhiqi, Xiao Shizhu's eyes became a little dim again.
"Greetings to King Jiuyou." The woman came and walked to Xiao Hui's side and stood there, and gave Xiao Shizhu a blessing gift.
"Go and eat it." Xiao Shizhu handed the osmanthus cake to Wu Xiaohui, bent down and stroked his head a few times, and then smiled gently.
"Dragon Girl." After Wu Xiaohui thanked him, he happily held the dessert and jumped upstairs, Xiao Shizhu took back his gaze and whispered to the woman: "Wu Zhiqi's affairs,
sorry.".
Xiao Shizhu lowered his head slightly and did not raise it for a long time. He was afraid to face the pale face of Dragon Girl and his slightly red eyes.
"You can't blame you; my husband is a soldier. Isn't the military's duty just to defend the country?" Long Nu smiled indifferently, and did not cry, make a fuss, but said lightly: "He died in battle when he defended his homeland.
It is the glory of Xiao Hui and me, and it is also the glory of the Monkey Demon clan; the Nine Nether Kings don’t have to blame himself.” There was no intention of blaming him in his tone.
"If he had a spirit in heaven, he would never blame you." The dragon girl turned her head and looked deep in the room. A little sadness appeared in her red eyes, but she did not have any hatred for Xiao Shizhu.
"It was you who asked Wu Zhiqi and us to stand in the sun, no longer being pirates who were scolded by ghosts or not criticized by ghosts." After a pause, the voice of the dragon girl sounded in the room again: "We are willing to
Fighting for you, naturally I am willing to sacrifice for you.”
The sun shines through the clouds, shining from Xiao Shizhu's head, and sprinkles on the incense table deep in the house, as well as the dust flying gently in the house, and the curling blue smoke.
Xiao Shizhu still didn't dare to raise his head and looked her in the eyes. He was ashamed of the orphan and widowed mother in the room; but the other party's sense of the generality made him feel more and more guilty.
"Me" a moment later, Xiao Shizhu asked in a hoarse voice: "Can I put in incense on Wu Zhiqi?"
"Of course." The dragon girl pointed her head a little and made way out.
Xiao Shizhu said, "Thank you!" and then walked into the house with big strides, but he never dared to look up and always hung slightly.
He stood in front of the incense table, picked up the brand new incense, put the incense head onto the outside flame of the candle, lit it, held it in his hand and shook it a few times, involuntarily holding the incense bent his knees, kneeling in front of Wu Zhiqi's tablet
Down.
Seeing this, King Kong and Yu Rong rushed into the house with Long Nu. But as soon as they approached, Xiao Shizhu shouted: "Don't help me, this worship is the right thing to do."
After speaking, he held the incense without saying anything, and then he solemnly bowed to Wu Zhiqi three times before he stood up and found the incense in his hand and put it in the incense burner.
"I'm here, in addition to worshiping Wu Zhiqi, I'm going to move the capital." After staring at the spirit card for a moment, Xiao Shizhu slowly said: "Dragon Girl, you are Wu Zhiqi's family, and you can move to Xindu Yu first."
Quecheng. All expenses and future living expenses will be allocated to the court."
The white ash on the incense head broke and fell off the incense head with a slight "pop".
"I won't leave." Long Nu said in a low voice: "Where is Wu Zhiqi, I will stay wherever I am."
Xiao Shizhu, who was a little surprised, looked up at her for the first time, but saw her face full of determination. A hint of undetectable happiness and joy flashed in her eyes.
It seemed that she could stay and accompany Wu Zhiqi buried in the soil was not a hard work for her, but it would make her very satisfied.
"I respect your choice." Xiao Shizhu knew that the dragon girl was determined and didn't want to say anything more, so she sighed and nodded, "In the future, Yingzhao Island will be taken care of.
If you are short of money and goods, just tell him that the court will meet any reasonable requirements of you."
After Xiao Shizhu finished speaking, he wanted to speak but stopped. In the end, he didn't say anything. He said, "Let's go." Then he walked out of the house.
"King Jiuyou, wait." Just as he walked to the door, Longnu suddenly called him and asked carefully: "Can you take Xiaohui away? I want him to see the world."
"Okay." Xiao Shizhu stopped and answered without thinking, but never turned around. After sighing, he continued to slowly walk forward.
After leaving Wuzhiqi's family, Xiao Shizhu and his group of ghosts walked slowly towards the Ghost Mother Palace on the top of the mountain. Along the way, Xiao Shizhu was abnormal, without talking nonsense but silent.
The eyebrows on his eyes were always slightly frowned.
The ghost mother and Lai Yueqi, who had been standing at the gate of the palace for a long time, had just seen him appear in sight, and the anxiety on their faces faded a lot.
Immediately afterwards, the two ghosts saw Xiao Shizhu's brows frowning. After getting closer and seeing the depression on his face, Lai Yueqi whispered in the ghost mother's ear: "Sister, what's wrong with the king."
?”.
"Huh?" After a little thought, the ghost mother said to herself: "It's probably because she went to worship Wu Zhiqi first, and she felt uncomfortable."
"Oh." Lai Yueqi nodded thoughtfully.
Xiao Shizhu approached and saw the ghost mother not far away, and Lai Yueqi who was holding her. After quickly put away the depression on his face, he showed his sunny side in the past, and smiled and strode towards the ghost mother.
"Wife, do you miss me?" Xiao Shizhu stood in front of the ghost mother, looked at the other person for a moment, and his eyes fell on the ghost mother's bulging belly. He smiled humbly and asked deliberately: "Only a few of them are there."
Yue got fat before she saw you?"
The ghost mother raised her eyebrows and her face immediately sank, and she said angrily: "Xiao Shizhu, you want to die. My mother's belly is your son, not fat."
Xiao Shizhu was scolded and was not angry. She actually smiled even happier, and her smile was as bright as a child.
Lai Yueqi, who was beside her, did not make any fuss. She had been used to it. Xiao Shizhu and Guimu were joking, and no one took the other person's words seriously.
I also know that Xiao Shizhu did this by the quasi-ghost mother; this is a kind of intimacy, which makes Lai Yueqi full of envy.
However, the national teacher who followed Xiao Shizhu couldn't help but frowned. Even if the mother of the country is on par with the King of Jiuyou, there is still a sense of magnanimity! But how could the mother of the country call the name of Jiuyou and ask Xiao Shizhu if she wants to die?
"This is the national teacher, right?" When Yingying was puzzled, the ghost mother's eyes had already fallen on her face and she looked at her curiously.
"Yes, she has a good hearing." Xiao Shizhu nodded and said, "Let her hear, are you pregnant with a boy or a girl."
Before the ghost mother could question it, Yingying spoke, "It's a girl."
