Chapter 17 6

Li Mu sat cross-legged and meditated since Jiu Ru left. He seemed to have read in that ancient book that the strong po fruit was not only unpalatable, but also unpleasant to eat.Sure enough, after a while, Nalie Poguo began to work.

The effect of Lie Po fruit is amazing. After eating it, Li Mu only felt a wave of heat slowly burning from his stomach. The fire carried the momentum of a prairie fire all the way from the five internal organs to his limbs. He felt his whole body was burning, even Some scorching light can be seen from the chest.Even though Li Mu had suffered a lot from the burning pain of the Heavenly Tribulation for tens of thousands of years, he could barely resist the pain from the burning pain from the inside of his body.

He forcibly suppressed the burning pain of his limbs and bones, and followed the heat brought by the Lie Po fruit to cleanse his meridians bit by bit. This is also extremely painful, but he seeks benevolence to obtain benevolence, even if he suffers more I am happy.

Jiu Ru knew that this person would have to suffer for a while longer, and his skills were against him, so he couldn't help him with anything else. Besides, if he wanted to build a road, even if he was walking, he still had to walk on his own. No one can do it easily. One step to become a god, of course, except for himself, the natural god prays, that's the only benefit.

The next day there was still no movement in Li Mu's room. Jiu Ru reckoned that it would take three to five days for him to overcome the fruit of the Liepo, but unfortunately the Flower Festival would have passed by then, so he still had to rely on himself.However, when he recovers, it would be good to be able to take care of him to some extent, and it would not be a waste of his hard work.

Jiu Ru has nothing else to do. Fortunately, he has been doing nothing for tens of thousands of years, so he doesn't feel lonely.I wandered out of the inn early in the morning, walked aimlessly for a while, stopped to watch for a while when there was something new, and continued walking when I got tired of reading.People coming and going on the street are preparing for tomorrow's Huachao Festival, with chandeliers and colorful decorations.Jiu Ru was quite interesting to watch, and what was even more interesting was that when he was eating at a food stall on the corner of the street, he heard two men who looked like they were dressed as scholars chatting, explaining that tomorrow's Huachao Festival will be an unprecedented event.The reason is that after the opening of the Tomorrow Flower Festival, all living beings are carnival. On the second day, the second princess of the royal family will publicly recruit a husband in the whole territory. At that time, I don’t know how many beauties and sons will come. Isn’t it an unprecedented event .

Jiu Ru was attracted by the two of them, and he didn't care that he ate two bowls of snacks in a row. It wasn't until the two of them checked out and left that they suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.But it doesn't matter, if you turn around slowly, it's good to digest food.

He didn't remember that the Dream Butterfly Clan had the old custom of openly inviting princesses to marry. Although the Dream Butterfly Clan didn't pay attention to the old tradition of men being superior to women, most of the women in the clan didn't like to show their faces. Now there is a grand event for the princess to openly recruit a husband. It can be seen The world is ever-changing, and it is really impossible to look at things with the original old rules.

After eating and walking back, it is already evening, and there are already watchmen on the wooden light poles standing on the street. Not to mention anything else, the Mengdie tribe, who is in a peaceful place, is improving the quality of life of ordinary people. The apprentice did a good job, which shows that the current patriarch is a pragmatic master.In the life of the Mengdie family, it seems that they like to pay attention to some illusory things such as artistic conception and sentiment. There are different patterns engraved under the light boxes of each street lamp. There are lifelike little rabbits and beasts with teeth and claws. .

Jiu Ru still thought that Li Mu should still be in retreat, so there was no need to bring him any food, but as soon as he entered the lobby of the inn, he saw Li Muzheng sitting at the table facing the gate waiting for him with a happy face, seeing him coming quickly Pull out a wonderful smile and get up to meet him.Jiu Ruo only thought of the word "wonderful" to describe this smile, probably because this person actually has a more serious face when he doesn't smile or speak, but his smile at this moment seems to have broken through the ice of ten thousand years. Like a ray of spring breeze, it drove away the cold and solemn aura around him, which was very wonderful.

"Xianjun is back? Did you have a good time today?" In order to be able to spend the Flower Festival with him, Li Mu forcibly accelerated the speed of his exercise. Although the pain was doubled, the effect was remarkable. Blessing, his cultivation base has recovered one-tenth, at least he is no longer a waste snack that even a little bit of magic can't do.

"It's going to be healed so soon? I thought you'd have to rest for a few more days." Jiu Ru was also surprised. Sure enough, talented people came out from generation to generation, and today's immortals are already so efficient in their cultivation.

"Yes, in order to spend the Flower Festival with Xianjun, I forced myself a little tighter. Now the injury has basically recovered, but the cultivation base has not fully recovered."

"Actually, it's okay. I can go first by myself. Just wait for you to recover and help me do what I can." Jiu Ru's understanding of the Huachao Festival seems to be different from Li Mu's idea. Seeking the traces of Miaoyi at the opportunity of the Flower Festival is not really about celebrating the Flower Festival.

"I want it, I finally caught up with the Flower Festival, so naturally I want to go with Xianjun."

Seeing his enthusiasm, Jiu Ruo just happened that it was easier for two people to do things than one person. Now that he was already healed, he naturally wanted to go together. "Have you eaten yet? I didn't know you were awake, and I didn't bring you some fresh food. If you haven't eaten, let the shop make some for you." Jiu Ru still remembered that he didn't bring any money, and he was afraid He couldn't bear to use his own money, so he always asked him specifically.

"I've eaten and eaten, and I have to bother Xianjun to spend money, and I will do my best to solve Xianjun's worries and problems." Li Mu didn't feel embarrassed at this time, he felt that since he wanted to have a relationship with the emperor, what must it be like? Even if I bother him more and owe him more now, it will become an opportunity to get close to him again in the future. Anyway, my 10,000+ years of shame is not for nothing, and I have to put it to use.

The two talked while walking, and when they reached the door of Li Mu's room, Jiu Ru stood still, nodded at him and said, "Then make an appointment tomorrow morning to go out together to appreciate the beauty of this Flower Festival."

Li Mu originally intended to walk a few more steps with him, it would be best if he could enter the room and say a few words, even if he couldn't, he would be sent to the door of his room, now that there was no chance, he could only bow to say goodbye, and agreed to see each other tomorrow .

Jiu Ru went shopping in the bookstore at the market today, and got a few books and scriptures that suit his taste. Jiu Ru's reading can be regarded as extensive, that is, he likes to read those lively fictional books, and also loves to read Desolate, boring and difficult to understand scriptures.There is a special library in his immortal mansion, which contains all the books he has read and annotated over the past few hundred thousand years. So as not to be eaten by moths.

The second day was the first day of the Huachao Festival. Before Mao Shi Jiu Ruo was startled by the laughter of men and women outside the window, he fell asleep. Thinking that the festival celebration had already begun, he got up and took a shower.Before everything was cleared away, there was a knock on the door without haste, this voice was very familiar, that boy Li Mu always knocked twice, stopped, then knocked twice.

"Xianjun is up? I asked the store to make some light meals. Let's go around the street after we use them?" Li Mu smiled, and what he said was both measured and natural. If you are half-closed, it makes people feel very comfortable.Jiu Ru thought that this person should be an acquaintance, and he was so generous and natural after only a few days of acquaintance, so he should learn from him, and Miao Yi always said that he was too deserted on weekdays.

The two sat opposite each other and ate some meals casually. Although neither of them was a stickler for the old-fashioned dogma of not talking when eating or sleeping, they didn't talk too much as if they had made an appointment.Jiu Ruren himself doesn't talk much, and occasionally meets people who are interested in him, and he will respond a few more words.On the other hand, Li Mu, during a meal, had to look at him from the corner of his eyes several times, trying to find something to say, but was afraid of disturbing the peaceful appearance of this time, so he never said anything.

As expected, the Huachao Festival lived up to its reputation, and the Mengdie tribe deserved to be a family that used to play with flowers and dreams.Before leaving the inn, I already felt the strong festive atmosphere. The halls, pillars, walls, tables and chairs all have their own decorations. The Mengdie family is butterflies themselves, so naturally they don’t like to use butterflies to decorate their lives. Therefore, these wonderful Most of the decorations are flowers and auspicious clouds.The store used magic techniques to cover the roof of the entire hall with colorful auspicious clouds, and phantoms of birds shuttled among them, chirping and chirping very lively.

The streets are even more lively, everyone is wearing brightly colored costumes, and the ladies wear bracelets made of bird feathers on their wrists, dancing like dancing when walking.Because tomorrow the princess will choose a son-in-law, today all the men will wear masks and go to the streets to participate in the celebration.

"Why do all the men wear masks? It seems that there was no such custom before." Li Mu didn't know about Princess Tomorrow's wedding invitation, so he was a little curious when he saw this scene.

"I forgot to tell you, it seems that tomorrow I will recruit a relative for the second princess. Today, the men are all wearing masks, probably because of this." Jiu Ru didn't know about the mask in advance, and he didn't prepare it. Bring two masks, thinking that you can buy them if you meet them on the street.

Although the weather has warmed up, the snow has not yet melted. The two of them walked through the bustling streets, stepping on the sound of snow creaking along the way, mixed with the laughter of the crowd around them. It has a bit of festive interest.

Turning a street corner, Li Mu couldn't help but notice a group of children rushing out from the alley. The children chased each other laughing and didn't pay attention to pedestrians, and plunged into Li Mu's arms.Li Muqiang managed to transform Lie Poguo with his luck, and came out together with Jiu Ru before he could adjust his breath, but in fact, his strength was still a bit lacking, the kid ran not too slow, and Li Mu didn't keep his balance when he bumped into him, and turned his head up Fall backward.

Standing behind him, Jiu Ruo saw that he was about to fall, so he stretched out his hand to support his back, and supported him so as not to let him fall.Seeing that he had caused trouble, the child hurriedly came out of Li Mu's arms, and stood beside him with a blushing face, while other children were making noise.

Jiu Ru took out a few pieces of sugar cakes from his bosom as if conjuring, and gave them to the children one by one before smiling and waving goodbye to them.On the contrary, Li Mu was still immersed in the inadvertent physical contact just now. He felt that the place on his back where Jiu Ruo helped him was as if it had been burned, and it was hot. Like there.
