Forced to raise cubs with rivals

Xie Qiao made up his mind not to take a look at Shen Guxue, but he couldn't hold back Zai Zai's howling all the time, so he couldn't hold back and turned his head to look over.

Shen Guxue was patting Zai Zai's back lightly, noticed the gaze cast on him, and slightly raised his eyelids.

Xie Qiao was caught straight, blinked awkwardly, and changed the subject: "Why are you crying, are you hungry?"

Shen Guxue: "I'm not hungry."

Xie Qiao was puzzled: "What's the matter?"

Shen Guxue didn't know either.

At first, he also thought that Zai Zai was hungry, but after condensing the aura, Zai Zai still didn't stop crying.

Shen Guxue pondered for a moment, then guessed: "Perhaps... I was frightened."

The conversation between the two of them just now was not friendly, and there was a hint of tension. It is normal for Zai Zai to be frightened.

Xie Qiao hugged his shoulders with both hands, and muttered: "Why are you so timid, I don't know who it looks like."

Zai Zai's cries became louder, attracting the attention of people around him.

Xie Qiao was restless, glanced around, and hurriedly said: "You coax him!"

Shen Guxue is already coaxing.

But after all, his experience is still inexperienced, and all he has learned is paper skills.

Xie Qiao couldn't stand it anymore: "Will you know it?"

Shen Guxue has a very good self-restraint, even in such a situation, she never got angry, but said in a low voice: "I'll try again."

Xie Qiao couldn't bear it and stood up, and moved closer to him: "No, I'll come—"

Shen Guxue hesitated for a moment, although she didn't speak, but two words appeared on her face: You know?

Xie Qiao immediately said angrily: "I gave birth, I can't?"

Being told so, Shen Guxue had no reason to refuse, as soon as he let go, Zai Zai was already in Xie Qiao's arms.

Xie Qiao said it easily, but it wasn't until Zai Zai arrived in his arms that he felt the painstaking fingers of coaxing the child.

Except for the time when he was born, he had never hugged Zai Zai again, and now he just felt a sinking in his arms.In addition, Zai Zai was making noise and crying so loudly that it made people's ears ringing. I really didn't know what to do.

Xie Qiao couldn't hold back anymore.It's just that he boasted about Haikou in front of Shen Guxue, and there was no reason to run away, so with a straight face, he scolded: "Don't cry!"

Zai Zai: "Wow wow wow!"

Xie Qiao frowned: "I told you not to cry!"

Zai Zai: "Wow wow wow——"

Shen Guxue really couldn't bear to watch it anymore, she took the initiative to say: "It's still me."

Xie Qiao really got into a fight with Zai Zai, and turned sideways: "Don't do anything, I'm going to have a fight with him today to understand."

Shen Guxue: "..."

Shen Guxue said helplessly: "Your hugging posture is wrong."

Xie Qiao: "What's wrong?"

Shen Guxue stepped forward, stretched out her hand to hold Xie Qiao's arm: "A little higher, hold his back, and here..."

Under Shen Guxue's guidance, Xie Qiao is getting better and better, and hugging cubs is also decent.

Zai Zai changed into a comfortable position, finally stopped crying, opened his mouth, and giggled at Xie Qiao.

Zai Zai has a chubby little face, round eyes, and a small nose. When he smiles, he is extraordinarily cute.

Xie Qiao suddenly forgot how upset Zai Zai was when he cried, and started to show off: "Look, I just say I'm here to coax you."

Shen Guxue looked at him, her eyes softened slightly, and she gave a low "hmm".

The sunlight was soft, passing through the window eaves, and covering Xie Qiao's face.

He lowered his head and pressed it against Zai Zai's cheek, the corners of his lips curled up, as if dipped in honey, and he smiled sweetly.

And Zai Zai was between the two of them, grinning toothlessly.

very nice.

Shen Guxue suddenly came up with such a thought: If it can be like this all the time, that would be great.

It's a pity that this scene didn't last long and was quickly broken.

Xie Qiao stood in front of the window and looked down, and said: "The bones are back." Then he stuffed the cub into Shen Guxue's arms.

Zai Zai suddenly changed arms, still a little dazed, looked at this, then at that, finally decided to slip into Shen Guxue's arms, and fell asleep soundly.

Xie Qiao said with disgust, "When will this cub grow up?"

Shen Guxue gathered the clothes on Zai Zai, and replied: "Seven to eight years."

Xie Qiao rested his chin with one hand and sighed, "It's been too long."

Just as he was speaking, Bai Gu came up from downstairs and came to Xie Qiao's side, and was about to say something: "Your Majesty..."

Xie Qiao held the teacup and turned it around, interrupting Bai Gu's words: "Sit down first."

Bone sat down hesitantly.

Her seat was between Xie Qiao and Shen Guxue, sitting here for a long time, she couldn't help feeling restless.

Bai Gu lowered his voice: "I have already contacted the disciples of the Demon Sect..."

Xie Qiao rested his right hand on the table, slightly lifted his ring finger, and when the finger fell down, a sound-proof formation was quietly laid down.

He nodded slightly, motioning for the bones to continue.

Bone continued: "There are not many disciples in contact. They hide their identities and hide in various parts of Zhongzhou, not daring to appear in full view. There are also disciples who want to take a flying boat back to West Demon State, but I don't know if they succeeded."

Xie Qiao asked: "Then do they know where they can take the flying boat?"

Bone: "I heard from my disciples...the first big city after leaving Zhongzhou has a stop for flying boats, and it's just over this mountain."

Xie Qiao looked in the direction pointed by the bones.

Outside the window, there are clouds and mist, mountains and mountains, full of greenery.

Xie Qiao quickly made a decision: "It's not too late, let's set off immediately."

Bones nodded.

Xie Qiao waved his hand and removed the surrounding sound-proof formations. He suddenly thought of something and stopped in his tracks: "Wait..."

Bone: "What is your order?"

Xie Qiao rolled his eyes, full of cunning: "You let the disciples lurking all over Zhongzhou spread some news."

The bones are a little puzzled, the most important thing for them now is to return to West Demon State, why spread the news?

But if you don't understand it, as a subordinate, she just needs to follow orders, so she asked: "What news?"

Xie Qiao said word by word: "Rumors."

Now there are rumors about the evil of the Mozong everywhere in Zhongzhou. No matter who is behind the fuel, once the rumor spreads, no matter what the truth is, the Mozong will become the target of public criticism.

This is not the situation Xie Qiao wants.

How to break the game?

Explanation and clarification are definitely not enough.What Shen Guxue said also made sense, if she came forward to explain it, in the eyes of some people, it would be tantamount to confirming the rumors.Besides, these rumors are all speculative and difficult to explain clearly.

That being the case, Xie Qiao could only find another way - use rumors to break the rumors.

As long as there is a more outrageous and eye-catching rumor, no one will care about the previous rumors.

With a thought, Xie Qiao has already come up with several plans, such as:

Shock!Sect Master Mingyue's obsessive love for the Sect Master of Buddha Sect was tragically rejected. In a fit of rage, he had a spring night with the demons from outside the territory, resulting in the death of the first person on the spot.

The news you definitely don’t know——the Saintess of the Hehuan Sect went mad, and the righteous young talent was brutally murdered. The list of victims is as follows...

At this time, Xie Qiao was always full of ideas, and within a moment he came up with one after another whimsical news, which made Bai Gu stunned for a while.

Xie Qiao: "Also, the miserable life experience that Immortal Bayiba Guxue has to say..."

Shen Guxue coughed lightly.

Xie Qiao stopped and met Shen Guxue's gaze.

Shen Guxue: Almost done.

Xie Qiao: All right.

Bai Gu didn't know about the eyebrow-eye lawsuit between the two, and was still wondering why Xie Qiao stopped talking. After waiting for a while, she couldn't help but continue: "Then?"

Xie Qiao raised his hand and rubbed the tip of his nose: "Forget about this, that's all. You release it first, and then adjust after watching the reaction."

Bai Gu responded: "Yes!"

After finishing their work of walking rumors, the group left the town in a hurry and headed towards the other side of the mountain.

……

The mountains are steep and the wind blows.

Xie Qiao's spirit flowed all over his body, but in the blink of an eye, he had already reached the top of the mountain.

The remnant snow has not yet melted, and he stands in it in a red dress, the hem of which flutters in the wind, like a ball of blazing fire, which can be seen but not touched.

Xie Qiao turned slightly sideways.

The mountain peak is condescending, overlooking the scenery.

Across the vast clouds, it seems that the majestic and simple Zhongzhou City can be seen.

I don't know what kind of scene it is in Zhongzhou City at this time.

Xie Qiao's eyes were fixed, as if he wanted to travel through thousands of mountains and rivers to see clearly what happened in Zhongzhou City.

He didn't know whether the decision to leave Zhongzhou City was good or bad.

Zhongzhou City is a vortex, surrounded by crises of unknown origin, and it is precisely because of the existence of crises that people are keenly aware of the changes that occur every moment, so that they will not fall into a passive situation like they are now.

When Shen Guxue stepped onto the top of the mountain, what she saw was Xie Qiao's pensive look.

"What are you thinking?" He walked over and asked.

Xie Qiao answered irrelevantly: "It's too quiet."

No one has set foot on the top of the mountains, only the eternal silence, so quiet that even the sound of snow melting can be heard.

However, Xie Qiao refers to "quietness", not the quietness of the environment, but other meanings.

Before he left Zhongzhou City by hiding his identity, he encountered Sect Master Mingyue on the way.

Sect Master Mingyue came prepared, as if he had foreseen the future, and arranged the formation and moves early, which made him fall into the trap.

After some twists and turns, although he killed Sect Master Mingyue, he still didn't know who the man in black was behind the scenes.

Xie Qiao originally thought that if the man in black missed a single hit, he still had a second hand.Unexpectedly, until today, the man in black has not appeared again.

This made Xie Qiao have one thing hanging in his heart, and he couldn't rest assured for a long time.

Shen Guxue didn't understand, so: "Quiet, what's wrong?"

Xie Qiao glanced over.

Logically speaking, he should be on guard against Shen Guxue, but now...for Zaizai's sake, let's count Shen Guxue as one of them for the time being.

Xie Qiao briefly explained the ins and outs of the future.

Shen Guxue frowned: "I've never seen a man in black, but..." He paused, "Even if the man in black has supernatural powers, he wouldn't dare to show himself at this time."

Xie Qiao suddenly realized.

The man in black asked Sect Master Mingyue to come forward before, and he was in charge of the overall situation behind his back, which showed that the man in black was either lacking in cultivation, or he had some scruples and dared not show his real body.

Now that he is with Shen Guxue at the same time, even if the man in black had a hundred courage, he would not dare to show up.

It's very simple, you can't beat it.

The man in black needs to work hard to deal with just one Xie Qiao, let alone Shen Guxue at this time.

Maybe someone in the world can defeat one of them, but when the two join forces, it is bad, that is the real invincibility in the world.

Xie Qiao wanted to understand this matter, but frowned: "This is not possible."

Bone came up one step behind, blankly: "Ah? What's wrong?"

Xie Qiao: "I don't like being passive."

This kind of calculation hidden in the dark is like a poisonous snake, lurking in the shadows, and jumping out suddenly to bite.

It can't do any harm, but it's just disgusting.

Xie Qiao: "We have to find a way to force him out..."

What method works?

When he and Shen Guxue are present at the same time, the man in black will never appear, so it is logical that as long as he and Shen Guxue are separated, the man in black may come.

Xie Qiao thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he shouted, "Shen Guxue."

Shen Guxue: "Huh?"

Xie Qiao harbored malicious intentions: "Please do me a favor."

Shen Guxue asked cautiously: "What's the matter?"

Xie Qiao smiled sincerely: "It's nothing, just the two of us are here to act in a scene where friendship is broken."

……

The night wind was cold, and a bonfire was flickering.

Shen Guxue tightened her jaw and expressed her refusal: "...I don't know how to act."

Xie Qiao blinked: "It's very simple, just like this, and then like this..."

Shen Guxue doesn't even know how to tell lies on a normal day, it's really embarrassing for him to suddenly jump to the difficult acting.

Xie Qiao: "Just pretend to be cold, show some murderous intent, and say a few more lines."

Shen Guxue said firmly: "No."

The flames jumped and reflected between the two of them.

Xie Qiao also wanted face, so when he was rejected again and again, the smile on his face also cooled down: "Don't be ignorant of good and evil."

Shen Guxue explained in a low voice: "I really don't know how to do it."

Xie Qiao raised his eyebrows: "Don't force me."

Shen Guxue: "...I didn't."

The atmosphere between the two became tense.

Bai Gu realized that something was wrong, and quickly hugged Zai Zai and shrank into a ball, so as not to cause a fire at the city gate to harm the fish in the pond.

Zai Zai knew nothing and was still sound asleep.

After a stalemate for a while, Xie Qiao suddenly said, "Help me, what's the matter." His ending voice rose slightly, sounding like he was acting like a baby, "...Guxue."

Shen Guxue's Adam's apple rolled up and down, she didn't remember anything, she only heard herself say: "Okay."

Xie Qiao changed his face instantly: "You promised, you can't go back on your word."

Once a word is spoken, it is hard to follow.

Naturally, Shen Guxue would not regret it, he looked at the other party fixedly.

Xie Qiao smiled smugly, his cheeks reflected a ball of fire, as if stained with a touch of carmine, very charming.

Shen Guxue whispered: "Everything is up to you."

I don't know if Xie Qiao heard it, but he blinked his eyelashes quickly, and said nonchalantly: "Let me teach you—we will start to quarrel first, then pretend to fight, and finally separate in anger, understand? "

Shen Guxue asked: "Why are you arguing?"

Xie Qiao asked strangely, "Have you never quarreled?"

Shen Guxue shook her head: "No."

Mingyue Sect is deserted, he has always been pure-hearted and ascetic, and coupled with his aloof status, he has never had any disputes with others.

Xie Qiao murmured: "No wonder you don't reply every time you scold you, you deserve to be scolded."

Xie Qiao wanted to teach on the spot, but he had been thinking about it for a while, but he didn't know where to start.After a moment of silence, he said, "Skip the quarrel and start planning directly."

As soon as the words fell, a saber light flowed from his fingertips, and the saber light turned into an arc, heading directly towards Shen Guxue.

Shen Guxue avoided subconsciously.

Xie Qiao said coldly: "Draw your sword!"

Seeing Xie Qiao's menacing approach, Shen Guxue couldn't help being taken aback for a while, as his killing intent seemed to be fake.Seeing another saber light coming towards his face, he drew his sword to block it.

"Chong" sounded.

The swords collided, and an invisible ripple spread in all directions.

Zai Zai, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up with a start, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a skeleton with white bones, and he cried heart-rendingly.

When Shen Guxue heard Zai Zai's cry, she couldn't help being distracted, and almost knocked down the sword in her hand.

Xie Qiao walked out slowly, and stepped on the fallen leaves with a crisp sound.The folding mirror knife in his hand turned, and the light on the blade flowed, as if holding the second moon in the world.

"Your mind is confused." He pressed each step, and said softly, "You can't even hold your sword steadily."

Shen Guxue's right hand hangs down, the tip of the sword points to the ground, her thoughts are chaotic, and even the Tongbi sword trembles slightly.
