MTL - Do You Know How to Capture a Villain?-Chapter 25 25%
Ji Qingzhuo was picked up unexpectedly, but she didn't struggle. At first glance, she looked really good, but only those who hugged her knew that she was as stiff as a piece of wood.
He hugged him and entered the courtyard. Ji Qingzhuo's eyes fell on the pure white clothes behind him. The clothes Shen Rongyu was wearing were of good material, so the scars could not be seen at all.
"Cultivation class tomorrow?" Shen Rongyu asked her.
"Yes." Ji Qingzhuo replied.
"I'll ask for leave for you." Shen Rongyu said again.
"The score of the assessment..." Ji Qingzhuo was a little worried.
"Elder Mu's class, what are you worried about, she gives all the disciples in the class first class." Shen Rongyu patted her on the back.
When his palm touched her back, the muscles on Ji Qingzhuo's back shrank slightly, as if goosebumps arose.
After entering the courtyard, Mao Mao was still standing quietly in the courtyard, drinking the water in the pool with his head down.
Except for the fact that the gate of the courtyard was destroyed by the soul-chasing nail, the atmosphere here was peaceful and harmonious, as if nothing had happened.
Ji Qingzhuo was placed by Shen Rongyu on the bamboo couch behind the moon gate, with calm water in front and behind.
Shen Rongyu tore off the clothes on the truss and put them on carefully.
Ji Qingzhuo was embarrassed to look at it, so she just looked at the water, but his figure was reflected on the water surface, his fingers slowly caressed the silk belt, smoothing out the wrinkles, and then fastened it with a silver buckle, making a crisp "click" sound .
The cold white outlines of the finger bones and the metal with a cold light touched each other, creating a strange sense of abstinence.
Ji Qingzhuo secretly swallowed, as long as she doesn't collide with other people's eyes, she can still look at it with confidence.
"Have you seen enough?" Shen Rongyu opened his lips and asked after pulling up his collar.
Ji Qingzhuo withdrew her gaze, looked up at the moon in the sky, and said softly, "The moon is so big and round tonight."
Shen Rongyu touched her wrist: "Have you run out of mana?"
"When running over..." Ji Qingzhuo said.
"You've learned the art of Yukong quite well." He squatted down, with one knee touching the ground, and began to check the injury on Ji Qingzhuo's foot.
"I ran in such a hurry that I didn't even have time to put on my shoes, but remember to bring the donkey." Shen Rongyu joked that Mao Mao was not pleasing to the eye.
Ji Qingzhuo explained very seriously: "Since he knows how to use the Soul Nail, if I leave Maomao where he is, he will definitely attack it and force me to go back."
In fact, the visitor did just that. He knew that Ji Qingzhuo valued the donkey, and even searched the courtyard to give her time to escape.
Shen Rongyu pinched her ankle, Ji Qingzhuo's toes curled up, the instep was tense, the wound that had just healed opened again, and there was a fine and dense tingling sensation.
"Relax, the wound won't open." Shen Rongyu pinched the thinnest part above her ankle again, it was more than enough for him to close his palms together.
Ji Qingzhuo's insteps were still tense, but his curled up toes barely spread out.
She lowered her head to look at Shen Rongyu, he lowered his head, his beautiful satin-like long crow-blue hair poured down, the silver hairpin that tied his hair was in the pattern of Xiantan, simple and elegant, his wide sleeves were unfolded, and the whole body seemed to be wrapped around the moon Hui, such as immortals refined.
However, he is pinching her feet now...
Ji Qingzhuo wanted to take his foot back, but Shen Rongyu held it firmly.
"Small injury, it will be fine tomorrow." Ji Qingzhuo murmured.
A clear spring appeared at Shen Rongyu's fingertips, and he performed a simple water diversion tactic. The clear and clean water washed away the mud and blood on her feet.
The wound was washed by the water, and it hurt very much, but Ji Qingzhuo only clenched the hand by his side, and did not make a sound.
"Does it not hurt?" Shen Rongyu asked again, and he changed the other foot to treat her wound.
"It hurts." Ji Qingzhuo would not lie.
"Does it hurt?" He continued to ask.
"Will you take it easy?" Ji Qingzhuo asked boldly.
Shen Rongyu felt that the foot he was holding was her artificial limb, and he brushed the powdered fingertips over her wound: "Yes."
"Thank you, you are so kind." Ji Qingzhuo thanked Shen Rongyu as if thanking the system, she was sincere.
Shen Rongyu: "..." He pressed her wound again to make the medicine powder take effect faster.
It hurts a lot, but Ji Qingzhuo pursed her lips and remained silent, she still didn't say anything.
Shen Rongyu stared at her white lips from being bitten, with deep eyes, and did not speak again.
With the effect of the medicinal powder, the wound on his foot healed quickly, and Ji Qingzhuo felt much better when he stepped on the cold bamboo floor.
She came all the way, sweating profusely from running, and now she really wants to take a shower and sleep well.
Shen Rongyu slowly washed his hands with the water diversion formula, he turned his head and glanced at Ji Qingzhuo.
Ji Qingzhuo straightened his back and sat in a small corner of the bamboo couch, with his hands on his knees, looking rather cramped.
"There's not only one room in this courtyard, but if you're willing to go back, I'll—" Shen Rongyu paused again, knowing that Ji Qingzhuo would definitely say yes.
— this dumb, silly wood.
"What are you talking about?" Ji Qingzhuo asked following his words.
"Nothing." Shen Rongyu washed his hands and wiped them with a white handkerchief, "You heard wrong."
"Oh." Ji Qingzhuo replied.
She raised her hand to tidy up her collar, which always felt a little uncomfortable and sticky.
Shen Rongyu can now not only expand sentences through her words, but he can even read her body language.
Ji Qingzhuo is actually a very understanding person.
"You want a shower?" he asked.
"Yeah." Ji Qingzhuo felt a little embarrassed, this would be too much trouble for Shen Rongyu.
"In the house." Shen Rongyu said to her—in fact, he used to wash with cold water in the pool in the courtyard, but now the courtyard door has been broken.
Ji Qingzhuo thanked her, and she stepped on the bamboo board with her bare feet, making a "creaking" sound.
"Water diversion art can wash clothes." Shen Rongyu said to her, "Drain water to wash, and then control the water to let the water leave the clothes."
"Elder Ye hasn't taught it yet." Ji Qingzhuo replied, she thought of Ye Duanhong who appeared strangely on Baishui Island again, is he going to kill her? If it was him, why did he speak out about the soul chasing nail so frankly?
"I'll teach you." Shen Rongyu originally wanted to teach her this simple spell, but realized that her mana had been used up.
While helping Ji Qingzhuo absorb spiritual energy to recover his mana, he told a strange story: "Among the children of mortals, there is a kind of toy puppet. As long as the mainspring is fully wound, it can keep moving. If it’s broken, you can’t move, you have to re-wind the clockwork.”
"I've never played it before." Ji Qingzhuo thought about it seriously and said, she really wanted to try this kind of gadget.
She didn't hear Shen Rongyu's implication at all.
"You are that puppet." Shen Rongyu turned her wrist.
Her wrist slid down, and weak mana filled her body.
It took Ji Qingzhuo an incense stick of time to realize that what Shen Rongyu meant was that he was winding her up.
However, at this time, she was already sitting in the bathtub in the house to take a bath, and she patted her cheek with water, making her flushed face even hotter.
She...she is not a puppet, but...winding up, this behavior has a secret and ambiguous feeling no matter how it sounds, and it is even more embarrassing than the double cultivation that the system said.
Ji Qingzhuo felt embarrassed, but she couldn't do other things to divert her attention. She could only lie on the edge of the bathtub, took the small mirror attached to the system, and dangled it in her hand with.
She looked at herself in the mirror with a flushed face, and called the system: "System, say something, system."
"What can I say, host, the flowers are full and the moon is full, and the atmosphere is thick." The system finally answered her.
Ji Qingzhuo began to settle accounts: "You lied to me."
"There is no place on this Baishui Lake where you can escape. You can only go to him. Didn't he save you? I said that you are very talented in the aspect of strategy." something wrong.
Ji Qingzhuo was annoyed, she thought that this system was really unreliable, and she should not trust it in the future.
"Drown you," she said angrily, and pushed the mirror into the water.
Of course, the water can't drown the system, but it can make Ji Qingzhuo lazy. She used a little mana to wash the clothes with the water diversion formula she just learned.
She spends mana now simply by calculating carefully, trying to reduce the frequency of winding herself as much as possible.
When Ji Qingzhuo walked out of the room, Shen Rongyu was wiping his Snow Burying Sword in the yard. The moonlight was lingering, and the night finally calmed down.
"Senior brother Xiaoyu, I'm asleep." Ji Qingzhuo explained politely.
Her eyes were focused on Shen Rongyu's Burying Snow Sword. She still remembered how this sword precisely destroyed the fulcrum of the Soul Chasing Nail, and it was she who provided him with information about this weak point.
Ji Qingzhuo felt a huge chill spread all over her body, she... didn't want to expose her ability.
This is enough to cause her death. If it weren't for the question and answer in the formation class, no one should come to "visit" tonight.
Do you want Shen Rongyu to keep his mouth shut?
But he is the villain.
Ji Qingzhuo thought for a while, and finally got close to Shen Rongyu. She glanced at the sword, and then at Shen Rongyu's hand.
"You want to sleep here?" Shen Rongyu put the sword back into its sheath and asked casually, his voice was still deep and gentle like a spring.
"Soul chasing nail..." Ji Qingzhuo was organizing his words.
"Zhuo Zhuo's analytical ability is beyond my reach." Shen Rongyu said.
What he said was true, and only when he was at the peak of his strength, could he have the awareness to accurately find the key points in a chaotic battle, but now he has no deep strength to support him, and he is indeed not as good as Ji Qingzhuo in terms of analysis ability.
I don't know where she acquired the ability.
"Okay, don't tell me?" Ji Qingzhuo said softly, her long eyelashes hiding the emotions in her eyes.
"Zhuozhuo, what do you mean, this is a secret between us?" Shen Rongyu turned her head, staring at the fan-like shadow cast by her long eyelashes on her cheek, and asked slowly.
"Only you know now." Ji Qingzhuo said, she did not lie, because the system is not human.
"If you want me to help you keep a secret, you will naturally have to pay a price." Shen Rongyu didn't agree right away.
He didn't intend to tell it, and he knew that Ji Qingzhuo was easy to deceive, so he wanted to tease her.
Ji Qingzhuo immediately asked: "What price?" She thought, Shen Rongyu shouldn't make such excessive demands, right?
"Xuanyunzong has two days a week for disciples to rest and not have to go to class." Shen Rongyu thought for a while and said, "Zhuo Zhuo can accompany me for these two days. There are many places in Xuanyunzong to play."
Ji Qingzhuo frowned slightly, she was thinking about what condition this is.
The system was in a hurry, it hoped that Ji Qingzhuo would agree quickly, and it reminded: "Host, it's a date, host, please agree quickly!"
Ji Qingzhuo immediately asked, "Is one day okay?"
"Not for two days?" Shen Rongyu didn't expect that she would learn how to bargain.
"There is one more day, I have to go to bed." Ji Qingzhuo honestly admitted that she always catches up on sleep during her rest, otherwise who would be able to stand it when she wakes up early in the morning.
"Of course." Shen Rongyu looked at her and said.
Feeling dizzy, Ji Qingzhuo just agreed to the condition of being with him for a day.
Feeling drowsy, she went back to her room to sleep, and when she climbed onto the bed, she yawned and asked the system, "System, you asked me to attack Xiaoyu, do you have any prepared plans?"
"Of course there is. I want you to warmly invite him to travel with Xuanyunzong sweetly...to collide with sparks of love in getting along...wait for my idea to be plagiarized?" The system was stunned.
"System, you are so stupid." Ji Qingzhuo couldn't help complaining.
"Senior brother Xiaoyu is also very dirty." She covered the quilt, rolled to the corner of the bed and huddled, sniffed, and smelled the familiar fragrance again, it was the smell of Shen Rongyu.
"Wait whose room I'm sleeping in?!" Ji Qingzhuo had such a question in his mind.
But she had no time to think, because sleepiness directly defeated her, and she fell asleep.
