MTL - Cannon Fodder Counterattack Investigation System-Chapter 41
The light in Lu Lixiao's quiet eyes moved slightly, and he scratched Zhou Ziruo's furry chin with his index finger. This cat-like behavior angered Zhou Ziruo, and he opened his mouth to gnaw on his finger. Lu Lixiao dodged with ease, Zhou Ziruo approached, he dodged again, Zhou Ziruo came over again.
After teasing him a few times, Zhou Ziruo gave up in boredom. At this moment, Lu Lixiao took the initiative to put his finger to his mouth, and said in a low voice, "It's done."
Zhou Ziruo bit down politely, actually not too hard, just grinding his skin with his teeth. He raised his eyes to demonstrate to Lu Lixiao, but saw Lu Lixiao looking at him lazily and deeply, and instantly his heart throbbed inexplicably, his tongue touched Lu Lixiao's fingertips, and suddenly it was as if there was a stick there. The blood vessels went straight to the heart, conveying his heartbeat to the past.
"Very good..." Lu Lixiao whispered.
These two words flowed into Zhou Ziruo's ears like magma poured in, making his whole body tingling and numb. As soon as the blood was hot, his tongue wrapped around Lu Lixiao's fingers and licked|fucked it up.
The corners of Lu Lixiao's lips lifted slightly, as if he was satisfied with the fox's reaction.
Zhou Ziruo woke up suddenly, spat out Lu Lixiao's finger, buried his head in shame, and dared not look at him again.
It's so immoral! The male protagonist is too frankly immoral! To tempt a fox! Even he was taken out of moral integrity!
Lu Lixiao didn't do anything to hurt Zhou Ziruo, put his hand behind his head, and continued to look up at the beam at a 45° bright and sad.
The firewood room fell silent, Zhou Ziruo shrank in the tortoise shell for a while and couldn't help but secretly raised his head. From Lu Lixiao's calm expression, he saw the profoundness that he didn't understand.
In one day, he fell from the most respected disciple of Qingyang Mountain to the suspect of the murderer who defected. Even though Lu Lixiao was always stable and calm, he must not feel too good now.
Zhou Ziruo was suddenly a little worried about him, and arched his chin with his hairy head, Lu Lixiao looked down at him, Zhou Ziruo stood up and said, "Why does the head believe that you killed the elder brother?"
At first, everyone believed Lu Lixiao's explanation, but after Ouyang Yi checked Feng Jing's head, Qiu's attitude changed completely. There must be something strange about it.
Lu Lixiao was not at all puzzled by this, "Because of the wound. The wound on the neck of senior brother was caused by my saber 'Buli'."
"Wound?"
Zhou Ziruo witnessed Feng Jing being beheaded with a big knife by the man in black cloak, so what does it have to do with Lu Lixiao's broken sword? Besides, even if the sect masters didn't know about it, when they found Lu Lixiao tonight, most people would think that the murderer used his sword to chop off Feng Jing's head!
Lu Lixiao seemed to know what Zhou Ziruo was thinking, and said, "In the whole world, I am the only one who can use this broken sword."
Zhou Ziruo didn't quite understand what he meant.
Lu Lixiao explained: "The magic weapon can only be used by the master after a special ceremony recognizes its owner. Buli is the magic weapon passed down to me by my father. The only person in this world who can drive this broken sword is me. Do you understand? "
Zhou Ziruo nodded half-understood, he understood that the magic weapon recognizes the master, fantasy novels are not for nothing, but the magic weapon for recognizing the master can only be used by the master, which is probably the weird setting of this cheating game.
So now a new problem arises—
"I saw with my own eyes that Feng Jing was beheaded by the man in the black cloak. How could it be related to your sword...Buli?"
Lu Lixiao squinted his eyes, thought for a while, and shook his head, "I don't know. Buli is always in my hands, and I can ensure that no one has a chance to take it away."
Zhou Ziruo thought, of course, you never leave the broken sword, even when you sleep, who has the chance to take it away? Besides, it can't be used after taking it away.
"Eldest Brother's case is still unclear, let's put it aside for now. When Junior Brother Leng arrives tomorrow, we will first investigate the old case from thirty years ago." Lu Lixiao said.
Zhou Ziruo lay back on his stomach, Lu Lixiao put his palm on his back, stroked the fluff on his back slowly, Zhou Ziruo's eyelids were twitching comfortably, and he fell asleep after a while.
In the afternoon of the second day, Zhou Ziruo lay on Lu Lixiao's chest, yawned and opened his eyes, and saw that Lu Lixiao was awake, so he happened to look down.
For some reason, Zhou Ziruo felt very warm when he woke up and saw the other party. He leaned over and rubbed Lu Lixiao's chin affectionately with his furry face. Lu Lixiao pulled the corners of his lips slightly, lifted him up and kissed the corners of his eyes.
The warm breath made Zhou Ziruo tremble a little, he twisted his body to dodge in his hands, thinking that if Lu Lixiao even kissed a fox, he wouldn't be afraid of being choked by the fur...
There was a knock on the door of the woodshed, and the honest farmer's man stood outside awkwardly, asking Lu Lixiao if he needed something to eat. Although Lu Lixiao said last night that he didn't need to call him for breakfast, but now it's over for lunch.
Lu Lixiao thanked him, stuffed the man with a bag of money and asked if there was more food, the man only said he was hungry, and hurriedly answered "and" and went back with a big basket of hearty food, and the woman from the farmer's family also returned. I specially made a pot of soup.
Lu Lixiao closed the door of the woodshed, and sat with Zhou Ziruo on the pile of straw to enjoy the natural and pollution-free farm food. After drinking and eating, Zhou Ziruo spread his limbs on the straw to burp, and Lu Lixiao put the plate away. Passed the basket to the man who came to collect things, came back and rubbed his chubby belly, and squeezed the ox between his legs curiously.
Zhou Ziruo hurriedly raised his legs, turned over and rolled off the straw, "What are you doing!"
Lu Lixiao ignored him and walked towards the window. A brightly colored bird was parked on the window sill, and Lu Lixiao fed it two grains piled up in the woodshed. The bird affectionately rubbed his fingers with its fluffy feathers, and its wings fluttered off in an incompatible gray-white color. feather, and flew away.
"What kind of hair is this?" Zhou Ziruo asked, and then saw that feather turned into a note in Lu Lixiao's hand.
Lu Lixiao looked at it and said: "Junior Brother Leng is waiting for us in the town, do you need to rest? If not, let's go now."
Duan Peng's hometown is in a small mountain village not too far from Qingyang Mountain. The village grows rice, and the whole village relies on rice to feed itself, hence the name Daohe Village.
After two days of non-stop spinning, the carriage finally arrived at the side of a mountain closest to Daohe Village in the early morning of the third day. From here, the mountain road is rugged and is no longer suitable for vehicles. The carriage stopped against the mountain wall, Zhou Ziruo got out of the curtain and jumped out of the carriage. As soon as his four legs fell to the ground, he was grabbed by the back of the neck and lifted up.
Lu Lixiao paid the coachman, and the coachman drove the carriage back. Leng Mo unfolded the map to look at it, and said, "Turn along the mountain road to the other side of the mountain, and it will take half a day to get there."
"Try to arrive before nightfall, lest the villagers be too wary." Lu Lixiao said while playing with Zhou Ziruo's tail.
The two brothers and sisters are both disciples of the immortal family, and their physical strength is much stronger than that of ordinary people. It is no problem to walk a few steps on the mountain road. Zhou Ziruo didn't have to walk alone with a fox in Lu Lixiao's arms, let alone whether he was tired or not, but there was one person who was not easy.
"I said... Mo, Mo, Daxia Lu, can we rest for a while?"
Panting, Mu Qijun supported his knees with one hand and wiped the sweat from his chin with the other to propose. The two people in front turned their heads, and Leng Mo couldn't help frowning at the title "Mo".
At noon, the red sun shone on the top, and with the physical strength of ordinary people, it was indeed a bit overwhelming to climb the mountain for a whole morning and then drive under the sun.
There is an old tree with a crooked neck in front of it. The trunk is tangled and thick, and the crown is flourishing, casting a large shadow on the ground. Lu Lixiao said, "Go and rest under the tree for a while."
The three of them sat under the shade of a tree, Lu Lixiao first twisted open the water bag to feed Zhou Ziruo to drink, Zhou Ziruo clasped the water bag with his paws and drank, his eyes drifted to the side, and he saw Mu Qijun offering treasure as if he was drinking. He handed Leng Mo his water bag, but Leng Mo coldly rejected it.
This old tree is at least several hundred years old. Not to mention the trunk surrounded by more than a dozen people, the upturned roots alone can completely cover the people sitting under the tree.
After quenching his thirst, Mu Qijun still felt dry and hot, so he fanned the wind and walked around, and was blocked by tree roots after a few steps. Zhou Ziruo pushed the water bag away after drinking enough, Lu Lixiao took out the small watermelon he bought on the road and cut it into big pieces for him to eat, then put the spout into his mouth to drink water.
"Master Uncle Duan Peng is the only son of the family that the master took in when he was traveling through Daohe Village. I don't know what will happen to the family after his accident, and whether the two elders in the family can withstand the blow..." Leng Mo said.
Lu Lixiao said lightly: "Qingyang Mountain is a place of penance. Since the two elders agreed to let Master Duan Peng go back to Qingyang Mountain with his ancestor, this son is no different from passing away."
Leng Mo said: "Although this is the case, if Uncle Duan Peng is still alive, there will always be a chance to go home and see the two elders... Why is it that the family is ruined and people are destroyed now, and heaven and man are separated forever."
Zhou Ziruo didn't realize until Lu Lixiao patted Leng Mo's shoulder soothingly that the beautiful boy was probably thinking of his dead parents. If he was a human being now, he would definitely give some words of comfort, but he was powerless after regaining his animal form, so he could only quietly bow his head and eat melons.
The atmosphere became a bit heavy, Lu Lixiao and Leng Mo were both boring gourds, it was even more impossible for Zhou Ziruo to speak in front of Leng Mo, in the silence, Mu Qijun's scream suddenly shattered the air: "Ghost!!"
Lu Lixiao and Leng Mo immediately got up and walked around the tall tree roots to the other side of the big tree, only to see Mu Qijun sitting on the ground, tremblingly raising his finger to the tree hole of the old tree. In the tree hole, there is a "female ghost" with disheveled hair trying to stretch out her pale and thin hands and dig into the ground, trying to climb out!
This is even more exciting than the scene where Sadako climbed out of the TV in The Ring at Midnight!
Zhou Ziruo was so frightened that all the melons in his hand dropped.
