The sunshine in autumn seems to be more vicious than in summer.Especially in the afternoon, the hot sunlight dyes the leaves on the trees golden.
Zhuang Rong was very leisurely, sitting on the leisure chair under the tree, with a veil covering her face, taking a nap in the shade of the tree.Xiao Su also followed and slept at her feet.One person and one dog are very comfortable.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhuang Rong was awakened by the rustling sound of the broom rubbing against the ground. When she opened her eyes, it turned out that Su Tingxi was sweeping the fallen leaves on the ground with a broom in her arms.
Zhuang Rong glanced at the sun and saw that the sun was setting again, so she stretched her waist: "I don't know what happened to Nian Bao and the others. They haven't come back for so many days, so we are left here to look after the house."
Seemingly inadvertent, Su Tingxi asked quietly, "How about Chi Jinnian's injury...?"
On that day, Yuan Shao contacted Zhang Wei suddenly, saying that Chi Jinnian was injured, and asked Zhuang Rong how to stop the bleeding quickly.On the second day, news about Yuan Shao's Chi Jinnian spread all over the sky. It was not difficult to see that it was Chi Jinnian who endured the pain and used his reputation to protect Yuan Shao.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that she treats Master very well.Su Tingxi thought.
"Hey! You still know how to care about our Nianbao!" Zhuang Rong looked at Su Tingxi's reaction, as if the teacher finally saw a student who was back on track, and smiled very satisfied: "Don't worry, my medicine must be the most effective. But am I right, Nian Bao is cute!"
Su Tingxi turned his face away and said nothing.His idea is simple, if Chi Jinnian can get along well with Master, he will treat Chi Jinnian well.
Before the words fell, a sweet voice was heard: "Are you talking about me?"
When Zhuang Rong turned around, it turned out to be Yuan Shao and Chi Jinnian.She hurriedly greeted her: "Nian Bao!"
As he said that, he was about to rush towards Chi Jinnian, but Yuan Shao suddenly took a step forward and stood in front of Chi Jinnian, stopping Zhuang Rong.
Chi Jinnian hid behind Yuan Shao, smoothed things over and said, "Sister Zhuang Rong, I'm a wounded person, I can't stand you like this."
After a few people exchanged pleasantries for a while, Zhuang Rong went straight to the topic: "How is it, have you finished dealing with it? When are you going to the ghost town?"
As soon as the words fell, Wei Ran's voice resounded in the ears of several people. He panted heavily, wiped the sweat from his head, looked panting, and wanted to put Chi Jinnian on the shoulder: "Miss, why didn't you wait for me! I'm so tired after following me!"
Fortunately, Yuan Shao had quick eyesight and quick hands, and quickly changed positions with Chi Jinnian, separating the two of them, allowing Wei Ran's hand to fall into the air.
Suddenly an outsider came, Zhuang Rong and Su Tingxi were also taken aback.
Zhuang Rong saw Chi Jinnian and Yuan Shao's expressions were both bad, and probably guessed that they were not kind, and asked, "Who is this?"
Wei Ran was not in a hurry, but knelt directly in front of Chi Jinnian.Zhuang Rong was taken aback by his kneeling.
Wei Ran raised his arms and replied: "Miss, I admit that I have done bad things before, which made the reputation of Master Yuanxian worry, but if I say that I am also a victim, would you believe me?"
Chi Jinnian glanced at him, turned his face away without saying a word.
Wei Ran was not in a hurry, and continued to explain: "My father has been heartfelt to the master all his life, and the master does not want you..." After finishing speaking, Wei Ran took a deep look at Yuan Shao, changed the topic, and changed the phrase: " The master does not want you to marry far away, and wants to choose a good husband for you, so he ordered me to stage such a show."
"But I failed to fulfill the master's entrustment, and I lost my reputation. My father punished me to kneel for a whole day at home. Now that the eldest lady is willing to take me in, it is undoubtedly a kindness to me." Wei Ran leaned over again. I bowed to Chi Jinnian: "Miss, don't worry, from today on, your words are my imperial decree, and I will completely obey your orders, and I will never go west if you say east."
"Okay, then give me the paperwork." Chi Jinnian was not polite.
"This..." Wei Ran hesitated, but still handed over the document with both hands: "Miss, since you want it, the villain will naturally offer it with both hands, but the villain begs the eldest lady, can you bring the villain with you when you go to the ghost town?" If it is found that the villain is not by your side, the master will definitely blame his father."
Wei Ran said it sincerely, if others saw it, they would feel pity for him, but Chi Jinnian would not.
As far as Wei Ran's acting skills are concerned, she is not as good as she is. Wei Ran is like a machine that reads lines, her eyes are dull and emotionless, she just stares blankly.
After taking the document, Chi Jinnian opened it and looked at it. There was no problem. "Go down first, I have to think about what you said."
"But... where should I sleep?" Wei Ran looked around at the surrounding rooms, all of which seemed to be occupied by people.
Zhuang Rong was not polite, and pointed in the direction of the door: "The inverted seat at the door is still vacant, you can sleep there!"
The upside-down seat is the room closest to the gate, adjacent to the street, and the servants and servants of the normal family sleep there.
But Wei Ran didn't seem to care. He looked back at Chi Jinnian and saw that he didn't speak, so he replied, "Okay. Since Missy thinks the same way, then I'm willing too."
Several people plan to leave early tomorrow morning.After arranging the itinerary, Yuan Shao went back to the room alone, sat there heavily, and didn't speak.
Seeing her attitude, Chi Jinnian thought he was angry at why he didn't drive Wei Ran away.But she can't help it.If Chi Lin was made anxious, it would be no good for anyone, so he could only follow the other party first.
"Master." Chi Jinnian walked up to Yuan Shao and handed over the document: "Here."
Yuan Shao glanced at his face, not wanting to answer.
Chi Jinnian put the document aside, picked a comfortable position that would not hurt the wound, and leaned against Yuan Shao: "Are you angry?"
Seeing that Yuan Shao didn't speak, she moved her body to Yuan Shao's side again, "Oh, my master is angry with me, what should I do!"
"Elder Qinghua!" Chi Jinnian suddenly called Yuan Shao in this way, and the other party suddenly turned around. She hugged his arm and asked, "Elder Qinghua, you said that my master is angry with me, what should I do? "
With Chi Jinnian like this, how could Yuan Shao have the heart to ignore her, she turned her face back: "I'm not angry with you, I'm angry that I'm useless, I need you to help me like this."
"Then you're not angry with me, why are you ignoring me?" Chi Jinnian took Yuan Shao's arm, let her rest on his shoulder, and slipped under the other's arm: "Master, you You can't ignore me. If you ignore me, I will be sad."
Chi Jinnian held Yuan Shao's hand and played with the other's palm: "Whether you are angry or sad, you have to say it. If you don't tell me, how will I know. I don't know, how can I coax you?"
Chi Jinnian was only focused on comforting Yuan Shao, but didn't notice. As soon as he said this, the haze on Yuan Shao's face disappeared instantly.
The little apprentice is coaxing her, does it mean that she is very important in the little apprentice's heart.
Does it mean that the little apprentice has himself in his heart?
The other party took advantage of the situation to hug her, and held her pair of catkins backwards: "Are you coaxing me?"
Chi Jinnian blinked with innocent almond eyes.
"What are you coaxing me to do? Do you like me?"
As soon as the words fell, Chi Jinnian's cheeks turned red instantly, like a ripe apple, and even his forehead became hot.
Chi Jinnian subconsciously wanted to retreat, but found that she was completely imprisoned under Yuan Shao's arms, and she was the one who got in on her own initiative.It is too late to retreat now.
Even her own hand was held in the palm of her hand, like a rabbit that took the initiative to clean herself, jumping up and down on the wolf's dining table.
"I...I didn't."
"No?" Seeing Chi Jinnian blushing, Yuan Shao still gritted his teeth, unwilling to admit it.Forget it, little girl, she's losing face, so she can stop asking.
Chi Jinnian was held in his arms, and the other's face was very close to his.I could even see the lines on Yuan Shao's lips. With such a close distance, Chi Jinnian became nervous: "Master, let me go, let me go, the injury on my waist hurts so much."
Repeating the old trick, how could Yuan Shao let the opponent go easily, first of all, the opponent's injury has mostly healed.Secondly, with this posture, I didn't touch her wound. The so-called pain was obviously the same as last time, and it was probably staged.
Yuan Shao was not in a hurry: "Then you take the initiative to kiss me, and I'll let you go, okay?"
This time Chi Jinnian behaved himself, and his tone was waiting for the other party to control him, instead of controlling him himself.So, she leaned out, pecked the other person's cheek, and got up quickly.
Yuan Shao's skin was very delicate and cool, when his lips touched it, he felt a soft piece, like kissing on a piece of cotton candy.
It's rare for Chi Jinnian to take the initiative once, and Yuan Shao accepts it when he sees it.Anyway, the other party has promised herself that she will be with her when her memory recovers, and she doesn't need to rush for a moment.

Early the next morning, several people set foot on the road to the ghost town.
As soon as I entered the gate of the ghost town, I found a bustling and bustling scene, the level of people's voices was comparable to the night market in the devil world.
The people here are dressed much differently from the outside. They all wear bales, and a veil hangs from the hat to the ear, which just blocks the face and only shows a pair of eyes.They were wearing long gowns, some were carrying bamboo baskets, and some were directly putting crock pots on their heads. The strange costumes made Chi Jinnian and his party feel very novel.
"Master, you said they were all covering their faces, how did they identify each other?"
"Look at the gemstones on the front of their hats." Yuan Shao replied: "Most of their bodies are fake, and their real souls are all in the gemstones on their heads, so their gemstones are different."
People here can only reach a certain level of cultivation after exhausting their physical bodies.After experiencing the chaos in the ghost town before, there is no living person, or a person with a complete body, who dares to continue living in the ghost town.
The few people did not delay, and went directly to the king city of the ghost town.On the road, I met an old woman who fell to the ground, and the fruits in the bamboo basket rolled to the ground, but the old woman seemed to have poor eyesight, and she couldn't pick up a few after groping for a long time.
When Chi Jinnian saw it, he hurried forward to help pick up the fruit and put it back in the other's basket.
"Old woman, be careful." Chi Jinnian comforted the other party, but it seemed that the other party's ears were not very good, so he didn't pay much attention to Chi Jinnian, but carried the bamboo basket on his back alone, and continued walking with staggering steps.
"Master?" Chi Jinnian looked at Yuan Shao: "This grandma is so pitiful, she is so inconvenient and no one is by her side."
Yuan Shao looked at the old woman's staggering background, but didn't say much, but held Chi Jinnian's hand tightly: "Stay with Master, you know?"
Seeing Yuan Shao's reaction, Chi Jinnian came over in a flash. Could it be that Yuan Shao discovered something wrong?Is it the old woman who has a problem?
Now Yuan Shao didn't say it clearly, it was obviously inconvenient to say so, so Chi Jinnian didn't ask, and just dared to be by Yuan Shao's side obediently.
Several people came to the main entrance of the palace, and after submitting the documents, a man dressed in brocade clothes and a dark purple robe covered with gold thread embroidery with python patterns greeted him not long after.
"Is it someone from the upper cultivation world?" The man cupped his fists and saluted: "I am the prime minister of Wangcheng, and the immortals will follow me."
The person who claimed to be the prime minister led Yuan Shao and the others into the hall, asked the maid to entertain them with tea and snacks, and asked everyone to wait here, saying that he was going in to report to the king.
He came back about half an hour later, with a sad expression on his face: "I am really sorry for the lords. Our king has been lingering on the bed recently and is not feeling well. It is not convenient to meet you in person. But you don't have to worry. If you have any requests, just Just tell me, and I will do my best to help.”
Yuan Shao explained the purpose of several people's coming: people from the ghost city secretly assassinated the elder Xinghe of Beichen Palace, injecting ghost energy into the opponent's body.
Those who were able to lurk into Beichen Palace without being detected, and who were able to attack successfully, must not be ordinary people.
When the prime minister heard the words, he also nodded in agreement, and then went down to find a box and came out. The post inside clearly recorded the situation of the princes and nobles in the ghost city, the minister of cultural relics, their respective cultivation bases, and the situation of their relatives: "This here you are."
The prime minister held the box in front of Yuan Shao and the others, and said: "All the famous and famous people in our ghost town are on it, and Xianjun can visit and investigate one by one."
Chi Jinnian looked at the box, and there would be a "bang" when it was placed on the ground. How long would it take to visit one by one?It's like finding a needle in a haystack.Moreover, if the perpetrators were stunned and escaped, then their efforts would be wasted.
"Dare to ask my lord, do you have no record of entering and exiting the city gate?" Yuan Shao's meaning is very simple. Looking at the records of leaving the city on the day of the incident and before the incident, and the records of returning to the city after the incident, compare it, presumably You can get the result.
The prime minister slapped his forehead: "Oh, you see, I am old and confused. If there are some, I will order someone to get them, but it will take a while. Our king will prepare them for all the immortals in the posthouse. After going to the room, why don't all the celestial beings rest for a while, and when I get the things ready, send them to the celestial king in the evening?"
"Alright." Yuan Shao nodded.
The maid led a few people to the posthouse. The little girl at the door looked at the notebook in her hand, then at Chi Jinnian and Yuan Shao: "You are... I've seen you!" The little girl became excited for a moment, I also forgot to distribute the keys to everyone: "I know you two, are you Chi Jinnian and Yuan Shao!" She looked at Yuan Shao and Chi Jinnian's tightly connected hands, with a look of "I understand": "Tsk tsk tsk, it really is true in the drawing book!"
The female officer in charge scolded her: "What are you doing, you haven't brought the guests in yet, can you afford to be responsible for neglecting you!"
The little maid nodded blankly, and began to distribute the keys to everyone, but she didn't give Chi Jinnian: "Aren't you living with her?"
"This..." Chi Jinnian glanced at Yuan Shao, and finally withdrew his hand to hold the key.
They went back to their rooms, and Chi Jinnian obediently followed Yuan Shao. As soon as they entered the room, the little maid at the door followed.
She stood by the door and looked at Chi Jinnian with a smile.
"What's the matter?" Chi Jinnian asked her.
She took out a drawing book from behind, and took Chi Jinnian's hand: "Can you sign my name for me? I like you very much!"
Chi Jinnian looked down, and there were a few words written on the drawing book: "Lianxiang Companion" [1].
Zhuang Rong was very leisurely, sitting on the leisure chair under the tree, with a veil covering her face, taking a nap in the shade of the tree.Xiao Su also followed and slept at her feet.One person and one dog are very comfortable.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhuang Rong was awakened by the rustling sound of the broom rubbing against the ground. When she opened her eyes, it turned out that Su Tingxi was sweeping the fallen leaves on the ground with a broom in her arms.
