Peach wood

Chapter 6 Substitution

Shu Huai sat at the table, secretly watching Meng Li's every move, maybe because of his state of mind, ever since he saw the statue, he felt that there were problems everywhere in Meng Li's body, and everything he did was not pleasing to the eye.

Mo Yun was eating happily with the bowl in his arms, Shuhuai kicked him under the table, reminding him to talk to Meng Li as previously agreed.That kick was a bit heavy, Mo Yun glanced at Shu Huai full of resentment, swallowed the food hastily, and said, "Mr. Meng."

Meng Li: "What's the matter? Could it be that the food is not to your liking?"

Mo Yun shook his head: "We two brothers went out today and went to the Empress Temple."

Hearing that they went to the Niangniang Temple, Meng Li paused for a while.He didn't raise his head, and continued to move his hands silently. After a while, he answered Mo Yun's words stiffly: "Did something happen at the Niangniang Temple?"

"It's nothing." Mo Yun said, "It's just that I think Empress Peach Blossom looks very—err, very, very beautiful. We want to stay for a few more days to see her true face." He put down his chopsticks and rubbed his thighs Just now, he almost slipped his tongue when Shuhuai twisted his leg hard.

Because of guilty conscience, Meng Li's eyes began to wander, Shu Huai saw his demeanor in his eyes, and felt mixed feelings in his heart.

Previously Meng Li invited them to stay at home temporarily, mostly because they thought they didn't know Peach Blossom Empress, so they would leave after staying for two days. Come on, is Meng Li still willing to stay?

As a scholar, Meng Li still wanted to save face, and he didn't say anything until the meal was over.Since I can stay here for a few more days, of course it would be great.Shuhuai thought for a while, went back to the house, took out a box, and brought it in front of Meng Li: "We two brothers live here, and caused a lot of trouble for the young master. I am afraid that the young master will not accept money, so I specially prepared a small gift. Don't refuse."

After the two exchanged a few polite words, Meng Li put away the box and went out again with a few scrolls in his arms.Qingguang stood by the pool and watched his figure, she didn't say a word, but looked a little lonely.She didn't have much energy at this moment, she washed the dishes indiscriminately, and then went back to her room.

"She sneaked out before." Shuhuai noticed Qingguang's abnormality, and suddenly remembered what she said this morning, and couldn't help gasping, "She must have been to the Niangniang Temple."

He told Mo Yun not to tell Qingguang about the statue, but he never thought that Qingguang had seen the statue long ago!From this point of view, she probably also wants to find Empress Peach Blossom, she really wants to find out who is the one she replaced.

Some things can't be thought about carefully, and the more I think about it, the more sad I feel.Shuhuai didn't dare to figure out Qingguang's thoughts, she knew very well that Meng Li was lying to her, but she couldn't tell, so she could only act with this man - how would she feel at this moment?

Do you think the other person is ridiculous, or do you feel sorry for yourself?

Judging from Qingguang's attitude, it should be closer to the latter.She has feelings for Meng Li, and this kind of emotion brought her joy before she knew the truth, but the moment she walked into the Niangniang Temple, all the sweetness in the past turned into a sharp knife in her heart.

Shuhuai hesitated for a long time in front of Qingguang's room, and finally decided to let her be quiet for a while.He and Mo Yun sat under the tree with their own thoughts, and they didn't say a word until the sun was setting.

Meng Li told them that "in a few days" they would welcome the Peach Blossom Empress, but when they went to the Empress Temple today, they knew there was still half a month left.Obviously it was more than ten days, but it was just a few days, which shows how much Meng Li is looking forward to this matter.

No matter how anxious Meng Li was during this time, Qingguang would only see more, not less.It wasn't her who made the other party so fascinated, but she still had to act like she didn't know it at all. Maybe she also felt very tired?

It turned out that it wasn't Qingguang, but Meng Li who couldn't lie.

Those who want to deceive people have poor acting skills and are full of loopholes. The onlookers don't like it, and the parties involved don't like it either.Qingguang would never like his careless deception, if he was more serious, at least she could have a few more days of sweet dreams.

"Why use one instead of the other?" As the sky was getting dark, Meng Li finally returned home. Mo Yun watched him enter the house and asked this question in extreme confusion.

It's very strange, it's good enough to be regarded as a substitute, but Meng Li just can't see it.Because he couldn't see, Qingguang could only be a stand-in, and everything she got didn't belong to her in the final analysis.

Shuhuai was caught up in this question, he grabbed the porcelain cup on the table and drank some water, and after a long time he said: "Maybe he won't get anything, so he has to find a substitute for it, he's just deceiving himself."

Mo Yun lowered his eyes and stared at the cup in Shuhuai's hand, wondering if he understood.After a while, he raised his head again and asked a second question: "If Qingguang and that tree demon stand together, can Meng Li tell them apart?"

Whether Meng Li can distinguish the two of them is really hard to say, Shuhuai shook his head, expressing that he was not sure.

Tonight, Mo Yun seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit, he stuck to his book and asked all kinds of things, he was already lying on the bed, still asking tirelessly.It's a good habit to study hard and ask questions, but it's a little too much. Shuhuai usually doesn't sleep at night and doesn't get up during the day, but tonight he was dizzy with a series of questions. He almost wanted to gag Mo Yun immediately so that he could sleep well. Feel safe.

As if hearing what he was thinking, Mo Yun suddenly fell silent.Shuhuai breathed a sigh of relief secretly, and was closing his eyes to prepare to meet Zhou Gong, but he heard Mo Yun ask again: "What do you think of my father?"

"It's okay." Shuhuai dealt with him perfunctorily, "Sometimes it's annoying."

"Then what about me?" Mo Yun asked impatiently.

Is it over yet?Shuhuai almost blurted out the phrase "same trouble", but in order to protect the child's fragile heart, he endured and swallowed the sentence with difficulty.He beat his chest, trying to calm down, and then replied: "Better than your father."

He seldom praises others, this is the limit he can achieve - "better than anyone else".

"Oh..." Mo Yun seemed to be in a low mood, "Do you see me as my father?"

It wasn't until this moment that Shuhuai finally understood what stimulated Mo Yun.He didn't bring it up in one breath, but was so angry that he woke up. He bounced off the bed and gave Mo Yun a punch, and said angrily: "What are you thinking about? I'm fine, why do you treat me as your father?" ?”

If the former demon king was lying next to him and talking nonsense with him for so long, he would definitely kick him off the ground with one kick, and he would never chatter so patiently with him.

Shuhuai fell back into the pillow, feeling physically and mentally exhausted: "Don't guess all day, I'm not the same as Meng Li."

"So, then can I..." Mo Yun was punched, but his tone became inexplicably cheerful.

"Yes, yes, I beg you, little ancestor, go to sleep!" Shuhuai turned over, wishing he could plug his ears.

Mo Yun chuckled, put his arms on Shuhuai's body, Shuhuai was too lazy to chase him down, moved a little and fell asleep.

Sleeping in a ball in the summer is tantamount to suicide in disguise. Before midnight, Shuhuai painfully found that he was woken up by the heat.Mo Yun didn't know what was wrong, so he put a leg on him again. Could it be that this kid usually likes to sleep with something in his arms?

Shuhuai couldn't bear it anymore, and was about to reach out to push, but was afraid of waking Mo Yun up, so he was entangled even tighter while hesitating.

Shuhuai: "...ah."

It's really troublesome to raise a child, it's so troublesome to be so clingy even after growing up so big, it's really troublesome...

After lying down with eyes open for a while, Shuhuai's thoughts began to wander around again.The Peach Blossom Empress will not come for the time being, she hides too well, I can't feel her evil spirit, and it's hard to find her, so what should I do tomorrow?Go to the Niangniang Temple again, or save Qingguang, a girl who has lost her footing first?

Suddenly Shuhuai had difficulty breathing, accompanied by inexplicable heart palpitations.He vaguely felt that this matter was not so simple. In the past 200 years, a large number of monsters suddenly appeared in the human world. As a monster king, how could Mo Hui know nothing about it?

Besides, the timing is too coincidental——

As soon as the Heavenly Emperor disappeared, the natural gods and human immortals began to compete for the throne, and at the same time, monsters scrambled to emerge in the human world; then Mo Hui disappeared, and Mo Yun, who had just lived for 50 years and was still a child among the monster clan, hurriedly followed After another 50 years, the Taomu sword began to stir, forcing Shuhuai to merge with its aura; a hundred years later, Shuhuai woke up, and the messenger from the heavens came to the underworld. When Shuhuai returned to the world, he felt his own catastrophe...

Chaos in the Three Realms at the same time, is it all a coincidence?

These monsters in the world are rampant and do whatever they want, is it related to the monster clan or the heavens behind it?

What will be the catastrophe of oneself?

The book is full of cold.He came to the world this time with the intention of saving the world, but if he couldn't save it, what should he do?
