Quick Wear: This Cannon Fodder is Delicate and Expensive

I glanced around and found no one nearby.

Shi Qi quickly floated back to the side hall and threw the lump in his hand onto the bed.

I lowered my head and saw the little guy's condemning and complaining expression again.

"Little guy, remember this, I saved him because of you." Shi Qi glanced at him and picked up the fire fox on the ground with gentle movements.

The little fireball wrinkled his face and sniffed: "Hmm~"

After Shi Qi put the little guy aside, he looked at the black mass on the bed and paused for a moment.

This thing seems to have soiled her bed. Shouldn't she have just thrown it on the ground?

Shi Qi came back to his senses and stretched out his hand to measure the spiritual power and breath of the person on the bed.

Ordinary yet extraordinary.

Even though this kid is a spirit, he actually has a physical body in the human world...it's really weird.

Could it be that it is outside the six realms?

Shi Qi shook his head, stopped thinking about it, and focused his energy on the boy.

Gradually, the corners of Shi Qi's mouth turned pale and his fingertips trembled slightly.

After a while, a faint purple light appeared on the boy's body, and his breathing became much calmer.

With a light snap of his right fingers, the boy looked completely different from before.

Her smooth black hair hung down at her sides, and her skin was as white as milky white, slightly pink and rosy.

The arms and legs are so fleshy that they look like lotus root nodes.

Her eyelashes are long and curled, like a small fan, and there is a red dot between her eyebrows, adding a sense of mystery.

A small and delicate nose, soft and rosy lips, and chubby cheeks, she looks like a delicate and pretty baby.

Shi Qi calmed down, looked at the child's chubby face, and moved his fingers slightly.

"Ugly ghost! What did you do to Nan Nan?" The little dumpling was protecting his child and his anger instantly got angry.

At this time, Shi Qi was kneading the boy's face with all his strength, squeezing it in various shapes.

Shi Qi was slightly stunned and said calmly: "Knead the dough."

"!!!"

"Did your master grow up eating dough? It's so bouncy and soft." Shi Qi was reluctant to let go of the dough, but when he saw the red marks on the child's cheeks, he withdrew his hands regretfully.

"You...woohoo, you are the one who eats dough, Nannan only eats..." Little Fire Ball was jumping around and was about to say something, but was interrupted by the sound of the door being pushed open.

"Ahem...you're finally back, I have...hmm? This is..." Mo Xuan pushed open the door and saw something extra in the room, his eyes trembled slightly.

Shi Qi stood up and said calmly: "A fat child and a fox."

Huo Huo: ...!? Fat kid?

Mo Xuan's mouth froze: "I know, do you know him?"

"I don't know him, I picked him up." Shi Qi said as he floated towards Mo Xuan.

"Yeah." Mo Xuan said as he walked around, as if he was looking for something.

"What are you looking for?" Shi Qi asked puzzledly.

Mo Xuan blushed slightly, and said unnaturally: "Why don't you change clothes for this child?"

Shi Qi: “…”

Looking again, the little boy's pink and soft body was wrapped tightly.

"This child cannot stay in the palace. I will find a way to send him out later. But is there... anything else? I have something to discuss with you." Mo Xuan stood up and looked at Shi Qi steadily.

"Okay, let's go." Shi Qi briefly explained a few words to Huo Huo, then followed Mo Xuan out.

Inside the house, the little fire fox nestled beside the child obediently, snoring softly.

The man who was sleeping suddenly opened his eyes with trembling eyelashes.

A pair of fiery eyes, sparkling with light.

After a moment, a flash of red appeared in his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, his grape-like black pupils were cute and crystal clear... but extremely cold.

Mingnan concentrated and saw the little fireball beside him. He slowly stood up and said, "Huo Huo."

Hearing his own milky voice, Mingnan was stunned and raised his hands in disbelief.

After an unknown amount of time, Mingnan realized the reality, lay back on the bed, and quietly looked at the surroundings.

Startled, he stood up suddenly.

He failed in soul-stealing...he was almost successful.

It was almost...he would not have to endure these hundreds of years of torture.

But at the last second...he still wavered.

Mingnan came back to his senses, his eyes were cold and his fists were clenched.

"Um~ Nannan, are you... awake? Ugly Ghost... saved you~" The little fire ball had sleepy eyes and a cute look on his face.

Mingnan froze and wanted to get out of bed, but he found that his short legs could only dangle slightly on the edge of the bed and could not touch the ground.

"Nannan, it's all your fault for taking risks. You've turned into a child now~ Woohoo, you don't have any dark power anymore. This is the safest place. Don't run around. Huo Huo will be worried... Woohoo." The little fire ball said aggrievedly.

Mingnan's eyes flickered and his concentration jumped.

In an instant, there was a "bang".

He fell face first to the ground, his whole body limp, and he lay on the ground like a pile of pulp.

Damn... How can I be so weak...

Mingnan stood up with great effort, and looked at the edge of the bed that his short hands could not reach, his face darkening.

......

On the other side, Shi Qi held up his face expressionlessly and looked at Mo Xuan.

"That token belongs to a secret team under Chen Feng. This secret team is responsible for assassinations, robberies... In short, all kinds of unscrupulous things. There is a famine in the west now. I have opened the granary. In nearly two months, the rice has been reduced by more than half... But the disaster in the west has not eased yet."

"What I'm saying... do you understand?" Mo Xuan's face turned pale and his breath was unsteady when he spoke.

Shi Qi paused and said calmly: "You want me to check the reduced rice, right?"

"Yeah." Mo Xuan nodded.

Shi Qi pursed her lips: "Do you suspect Chen Feng?"

"It's not suspicion, it's finding evidence. I... you must have discovered that I am basically in a state of imprisonment now, and the slightest movement will cause a lot of trouble. A few days ago, I sent the trusted Minister Lin to investigate the matter, but found nothing. The rice... is probably hidden somewhere." Mo Xuan said, frowning slightly.

"Got it. I'll investigate the matter. By the way, were local officials mobilized in the last investigation?" Shi Qi asked.

"No, only Minister Lin knows about this." Mo Xuan said.

Shi Qi nodded, his eyes twinkling: "Then this time... let's mobilize a larger force, and it would be best if officials at all levels in the west... knew about this."

Mo Xuan didn't react and was slightly stunned: "But this..."

"Mo Xuan, if you want to destroy them, you must first drive them crazy. If you keep it a secret, those people... will never reveal their true colors. Besides, once this matter is investigated, do you think Chen Feng... can sit still?"

"If it is really hidden, Chen Feng can't do it alone. You only look at the big fish, but forget that those who have the most direct contact with the people... are often some small fish and shrimps." Shi Qi didn't say it too bluntly, she knew that Mo Xuan could understand.

The woman in front of him had a slightly yellowish complexion and looked ordinary or even a little ferocious.

But at this moment, my whole body seemed to be glowing.

Those eyes were not pure, clear and bright without any impurities.

On the contrary, those eyes have experienced all kinds of worldly things, are proficient in clever calculations, and have unfathomable observations.

It seems calm and peaceful, yet it encompasses everything...

Just looking at it...you will inexplicably want to get closer to it and treasure it.
