The long road to chasing husband

Before nightfall, it rained heavily, and it was rare to see it cool down.Xiao Qingze and Mu Chen each put on a thin cape, and after the rain stopped, they went to the boat rented by Wen Cheng in advance.

There are only a few shops on the river, but the people have not dispersed, and you can still feel the excitement of the dragon boat race at noon.

Xiao Qingze entered the cabin, feeling Wen Cheng's thoughtfulness.The cabin was equipped with melons, fruits, tea, and thin quilts to keep out the cold, apparently sent by Wen Cheng from Jinxiu Building.

Xiao Qingze's body is cold, so he should be more careful when sailing on the water.Wen Cheng knew all this.

Xiao Qingze touched the embroidery on the quilt, if Wen Cheng hadn't prepared these things, he would have almost forgotten about his cold body.That's right, Mu Chen nursed him for so long, and he hasn't felt sick for a long time.As for the coldness of boating on the water, Xiao Qingze didn't care.Muchen is a big heater, and he has been relying on this "heater" for almost all his life this spring.

"Young master, is there anything you want to buy?" Night market, night market, it's natural to see what novelties you can buy when you visit the night market.

"What? I want to buy it. Will you pay me?" Xiao Qingze is really in a good mood recently.

"If the young master doesn't dislike it, of course you can, but let me remind the young master that all my money is taken from the young master." Mu Chen didn't show weakness either, anyway, he was used to being molested by Xiao Qingze now, so he just occasionally Also flirt back.

Xiao Qingze ignored him and sat at the table drinking tea.

There is still some time before the shops on the night market open. At this moment, most boatmen will not sail unless requested by customers.

The night is getting darker and the lights are on.The boat that Xiao Qingze and Mu Chen were on also moved slowly.

Looking from the window of the cabin, Xiao Qingze found that the night market here is indeed unique. The shops here are all on the ship, not many selling gadgets, but unexpectedly many selling food.

The number of boats on the river gradually increased, and they were in an orderly manner, with no one scrambling for them.

"Little Lord?"

"Huh?" Xiao Qingze came back to his senses, only to realize that Mu Chen had bought a box of pastries from outside at some point and had brought a food box in his hand.

"When I came to Ruiwu Town before, I tasted the Sophora japonica cake of this family. The Sophora japonica of his family is selected from the flowers of the Sophora japonica tree that grows at the foot of the mountains and beside the Qingshui River, which is the top grade. The flower sauce is sweet and delicious, and the steamed glutinous rice cake contains dried fruit and golden jujube, and it is paired with Huaihua sauce, which is a rare delicacy in Ruiwu Town." Mu Chen opened the pastry box as he said, and the snow-white glutinous rice The cake is dotted with dried fruits and jujubes, and sprinkled with sophora japonica sauce, which looks very appetizing.

"Isn't there a lot of locust trees in the north?" Xiao Qingze took a piece, the glutinous rice was mixed with the sweetness of locust flower sauce, and the fragrance of locust tree was lingering between his lips and teeth, which made people feel endless aftertaste.

"This is also the reason why the Sophora japonica cake of this shop is famous."

Xiao Qingze took a piece of Sophora japonica cake and put it into Mu Chen's mouth, "What is that?"

"lotus root starch."

Mu Chen took two exquisite small bowls from the food box, put lotus root powder in it, asked the boatman for freshly boiled water, and washed two bowls.

"You can't usually eat this in the north. I used to eat it when I was a child. It's rare to find a store that sells the same taste as the one I ate when I was a child. The young master will also try it."

This lotus root powder is fine and delicate, and after boiling water, it turns lavender, crystal clear, elegant and fragrant in the mouth, sweet and smooth, and it is indeed delicious.

"Heh." Xiao Qingze suddenly chuckled.

"Young master, what's the matter?" Mu Chen didn't know why.

"It's nothing." It's just that a little child suddenly appeared in his mind, holding a bowl of lotus root noodles, with two bright and innocent eyes open, blinking.

"If the young master likes it, you can buy some and take it home."

Xiao Qingze continued to drink lotus root powder, thinking about himself these days, it is indeed as An Heng said, his mouth has become more and more cunning.

"Have you been to Ruiwu Town before?"

"Well, it's not far from where I grew up."

"After the matter is over, go back and have a look, I'll accompany you." Xiao Qingze drank his share that Mu Chen pushed over.

But Mu Chen didn't answer.

"What's wrong?" There was a sudden silence in the cabin, and Xiao Qingze naturally realized that something was wrong.

"All the family members who lived there have passed away, and those who are still alive don't live there anymore." Mu Chen said slowly, as if it was a very common thing.

Xiao Qingze put down the spoon, covered Mu Chen's hand on the table, and clenched it tightly.Mu Chen cleverly held Xiao Qingze's hand with his backhand.

"Have you heard? That big devil has gone mad."

Suddenly, an excited voice came from outside.

"Mu Chen, go out and have a look." Xiao Qingze and Mu Chen felt that what this person said was what they were most concerned about recently.

When Mu Chen stepped out of the cabin, he saw a group of people sitting on a boat. Those who couldn't fit in the boat had to listen clearly even if they propped up their own boat.

Mu Chen signaled the old man who punted the boat to come closer,

"Brother, are you talking about the Lord of the Demon Palace?" Mu Chen asked.

"Yeah, little brother, you look like you are from the world, but you haven't heard of it yet? It is said that the master of the Demon Palace went mad and almost killed his own subordinates. If it weren't for the palace master Take the initiative and act quickly, and I guess this evil magic palace will be gone." Some gloated in the front, but it was obviously a bit regretful when it came to the back.

"It is said that the deputy palace master of the Demon Palace is a dandy, but unexpectedly he helped the palace master of the Demon Palace at a critical moment."

"I wish he hadn't helped at all."

How could it be possible for a person who can become the deputy palace master of the Demon Palace to be just a playboy?

Everyone chattered.

"Don't tell me what kind of evil kung fu the master of the Demon Palace is practicing. It's only been three years. This kung fu may rank among the top ten in the Jianghu."

"You're still talking about this! Now no one in Jianghu knows his last name."

"This man is elusive, and it is said that he is also dressed up in a charming way. He is obviously a man, so he insists on dressing himself up as a man who is not a man or a woman."

"The vice-master of the Devil's Palace is the same, and his skill is not weak. I always thought he was half a useless person. Do you remember the last time in Jinxiu Tower? It was the time when Mr. Nangong came out. He was not afraid at all, although he should be counted. It is guaranteed that Mr. Nangong will not deal with him."

"That's right, this magic palace is unfathomable. I really hope that the martial arts will destroy them quickly this time."

"Destroyed? Don't you know? Some time ago, it was said that it was to encircle and suppress the Demon Palace, but what happened? The people from the Demon Palace are obviously in our Ruiwu Town. Where are they? None of them came. Afterwards, it was said that there were martial arts cheats Here, one came faster than the other. Now, almost all the people in the Demon Palace are here, but luckily, they all ran away."

"Don't be angry, don't you still have Qilin Pavilion and Demon Cult? In my opinion, they are much more reliable than those people."

"That's right. I heard that the Devil's Palace troubled them not long ago. First, they were dealt with by the Great Protector of the Devil's Sect. Then they went mad not long after returning from the young master of the Qilin Pavilion."

"It is said that people are both good and evil, and those decent people still look down on them. What is the result? In the end, we ordinary people have to rely on them to punish rape and eliminate evil."

"Haven't you heard? The previous Deputy Palace Master of the Demon Palace was killed by the current Young Pavilion Master of the Qilin Pavilion, which can be regarded as a major disaster."

"I also think that the Qilin Pavilion and the Devil's Cult are much better than those so-called decent families. At least they won't disturb our Ruiwu Town because of a god-knows-what secret book."

……

"Young master, are you satisfied?" Mu Chen deliberately put on a jealous expression.

"Your credit is all on my shoulders, what do you think?" Xiao Qingze looked at Mu Chen and smiled happily.

"I don't care. However, I suspect that the Palace Master of the Demon Palace has guessed a little bit about your strength, so he is in a hurry to break through."

"Forget it, come out to play, don't talk about those unhappy things."

"Yes, come out to play, what are you doing talking about these unhappy things?" Feng Xing's voice came suddenly, Xiao Qingze and Mu Chen saw Feng Xing took Lan Yu from the opposite boat to build a long board and came over.

Lan Yu's eyes on Mu Chen were obviously much gentler than last time, probably because the medicine given to Feng Xing had some effect.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, they sat down to have tea and snacks together.

"I heard that Brother Xiao Xian was injured, so I don't know what's going on now?" After Feng Xing heard about it, he wanted to come and have a look. After all, if Xiao Qingze was seriously injured, it would not be a good thing.

However, now it seems that being able to "flirt" with someone here should not be a big problem.

"It's much better. Brother Xie Feng and Brother Lan are concerned." Xiao Qingze didn't intend to say that he wasn't injured at all.

"That's good." Feng Xing smiled lightly.

"Brother Feng, do you have something important to tell me?" Xiao Qingze thought that he and Feng Xing were not familiar enough to sit and chat together without going to the Three Treasures Hall.

"Didn't you say not to mention those unhappy things?"

"It's okay to talk about business, right?" Xiao Qingze said.

Feng Xing originally planned to look for Xiao Qingze in the next few days, but he didn't expect to see Mu Chen here, so he came here directly. "To be honest, I do have a matter. The spies I placed in the Demon Palace said that the situation of the Palace Master is basically stable now, and it seems that there is no serious problem. Brother Xiao, it is better to be careful."

"Thank you Brother Feng for reminding me, cough-cough." Xiao Qingze suddenly coughed a few times for some reason, and his face suddenly turned pale.

"Since Brother Xiao Xian is not feeling well, then I won't bother you, and have a good rest." Feng Xing thought that Xiao Qingze's old injury had recurred, and he couldn't help here, so he had finished what he had to say, and was about to leave.

"Thanks...cough-cough."

"Lan Yu and I are going back first, so there is no need to send them off." Feng Xing and Lan Yu bowed to them and left.

After confirming that the person had gone far away, Mu Chen took a silver needle from Xiao Qingze's back, and Xiao Qingze quickly returned to normal.

"Even me? Huh?" There was no blame, just a question with some mischievous undertones.

As soon as Xiao Qingze coughed just now, he knew it was Mu Chen's fault. He is in such good health now, how could he suddenly cough like that!

Mu Chen held the silver needle and didn't speak.

"You want to be alone with me that much?" Knowing that Mu Chen would never speak, Xiao Qingze continued to ask.

Mu Chen didn't speak for a long time, and when Xiao Qingze thought Mu Chen wouldn't answer him, he suddenly said, "So what?"

Xiao Qingze looked up at Mu Chen.

That time, from Mu Chen's clear eyes, Xiao Qingze seemed to see the sea of ​​stars, very much like the starry sky he saw for the first time at the foot of Qilin Pavilion Mountain when he was five years old.

That was probably the most beautiful scenery he had ever seen in his life.

The author has something to say:

I found a very serious problem: I only need to write and eat, and I code very fast, I don’t want to stop at all, and I need to work hard to control myself every time.

This problem is too serious. _(:зゝ∠)_
