Grudge Breaker

Chapter 328 Things Have Changed
Coral caught a glimpse of a fat, furry mouse flashing past the screen wall and disappearing into the bushes. She was so frightened that she broke out in a sweat. The spiritual power of this creature must be quite high, so why did the defensive barrier in the mansion have no reaction at all?
"There's a foreign object breaking in, capture it alive!"

"Don't disturb the master, he is resting."

While giving orders, she used magic to catch up!
After all, they were in Cangyue Mansion, and everyone knew each other well and had the geographical advantage. In just three or five cups of tea, the "alien object" was caught and tied up with the Immortal Binding Rope by the guards in the mansion and sent to Shanhu.

This thing was the size of a rabbit, with a coat of warm, fluffy, cream-colored fur, pink paws and nose, a strangely folded tail, and a pair of black eyes staring at her - as if it had awakened its intelligence, and its eyes were somewhat infatuated...

Coral circled it and muttered to himself,

"what is this?"

Several guards looked at each other and shook their heads. "My lady, I haven't seen it either. It's probably just a mutant rat who has no idea of ​​his own limitations and dares to break into Cangyue Mansion."

The thing actually showed a look of disgust when it heard this.

"Guinea pigs, they are guinea pigs, they are totally different from mice! As we all know, I am a harmless little cutie, much cuter than a dirty mouse~"

"You can actually talk?"

Coral could not hide her shock - although there was no shortage of fairies, demons and monsters in the sleeping world, very few of them could cultivate "human language", unless they were great demons. And almost every great demon had the combat power of a Class A warlock. Although the fat rat in front of her had more magical powers than her, it was at most Class C and obviously did not belong to this category.

Except for the big monsters, most of the monsters don't speak human language. Even if they can, they can only speak a few simple clichés, such as the "human-faced bear" and the "parrot tongue". The purpose of their speaking human language is to trap humans to help them practice, but they can only speak a few words here and there and cannot achieve real communication.

How could this one be like...

"What the hell are you?"

"Hey, pretty lady, why are you cursing at me? No, are you cursing at me?"

The little pig had an innocent look on his face, concentrating on acting silly and cute with Coral.

……

It turned out that Song Weichen used a tactic of retreating in order to advance.

Her previous "Auntie Xue's knocking on the door technique" was not just for throwing a tantrum, but to take the opportunity to attach the power of controlling puppets to the door bit by bit without leaving any trace, so as to detect the situation inside the mansion.

However, the door of the mansion made of dark wood was very thick, and the area that could be explored was limited. After struggling for half an incense stick, she could only barely recognize that there was a person standing behind the door without moving, but he did not answer the door.

Judging from the outline of its body, it looks like a woman, definitely not the big bird.

It seems that if he wants to see him, he must use his wits. So Song Weichen changed his battle plan, quietly hiding Xiao Biezhi by the door in the form of a puppet, and pretending to leave.

As expected, the little meatball was able to enter the house smoothly, and being caught was also expected - she wanted it to cause a riot and get caught.

……

At this moment, Song Weichen has appeared at the gate of Cangyue Mansion again, but he has changed his "skin". He is wearing a white robe, handsome and elegant, like a young man with a refreshing breeze.

The commander of the guards at the gate naturally recognized "him" and wondered what day it was today and why the gate of the mansion was so bustling. Before he could finish his thought, someone had already come to greet him.

"Greetings, White Robe Reverend!"

Song Weichen nodded in response, put his hands behind his back and glanced at the guard leader nonchalantly.

"I want to see the Supervisor. I have something important to discuss with him. Please lead the way."

Gu Cangyue was the supervisor appointed by the upper realm for the "important case of the missing former white-robed man", and he was also the "current white-robed man in charge assistant" chosen by him. There was nothing wrong with Song Weichen looking for him both in public and in private.

"Your Majesty..."

The guard commander looked hesitant, it was not that he didn't want to take them, but Gu Cangyue seemed like a completely different person after he was promoted to True Lord this time - he used to be willful and arrogant, full of hot-blooded and arrogant, but now he has become much more dull. Except for the rare time he went out on the day of the family banquet at the Lord's Mansion, he spent the rest of his time in the pavilion in the back garden, living a life of drunkenness and dreams. Even his personal maid Shanhu hardly saw him, let alone other people.

The guard commander stammered and told the truth. Song Weichen's heart sank when he heard it. There was indeed something wrong with the big bird. It seemed that he had to break into the back garden of Cangyue Mansion today.

"No problem, then take me to see Coral."

After all, he was the white-robed elder of Si Chen Mansion. The commander dared not disobey and led him into the mansion obediently.

The scenery in the mansion made Song Weichen feel dazed for a moment. Although he had not been here for three or four months, it seemed that nothing had changed.

Two glazed silk lamps are hung in front of the moon-shaped cave door carved from cold jade. Behind the nine-panel carved screen made of red sandalwood, water agarwood is still rising from the bronze lotus-patterned incense burner in the corner.

Between breaths, it was as clear as a cold spring in a deep ravine, but with a hint of sweetness in the aftertaste, like newly picked cliff honey in early spring, and it was still her favorite honey orchid scent - she remembered that she once accidentally said she liked it, and the smell of Cangyue Mansion has never changed since then.

Walking through the courtyard, Song Weichen paid special attention to the magnolia tree in the corner. Different from the magnolias elsewhere, the magnolias in Cangyue Mansion were not only taller, but also had blue flowers.

In addition, the flowering season is also different. Magnolias elsewhere bloom in spring, but here they bloom in winter - it is late spring now, and this magnolia should have withered.

“Does this tree bloom for such a long time?”

The commander had his head down and was concentrating on leading the way, but when Song Weichen asked this, he noticed that the person behind him stopped and looked in the direction she was looking, with a look of sudden enlightenment.

"Oh, I didn't expect that the Venerable also likes Magnolia."

"This flower should have withered in the spring, but because the young master likes it, the True Lord has been using his spiritual power to nourish it, making it evergreen."

The commander pointed to a hidden place on the treetop, where a glass bottle was hanging with a red rope.

"And the one on the tree, the Master even forbids his servants to touch it, he wipes it himself." Song Weichen had never seen that thing before and was curious.

"Can I come over and take a look? No touching."

"Well, then, that's fine, please, please!"

Song Weichen walked under the tree and finally saw clearly what was sealed in the glass bottle.

It was a piece of wrinkled and yellowed paper with the words "Let me enjoy the snow-white hair with you" written on it. The handwriting was not that beautiful, and there was an ugly graffiti bird in the corner with three feathers on its head and a matchstick man on its back making the "yeah" gesture.

She couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth. She had the impression that this piece of paper was drawn for fun when she was bored and staying overnight in Cangyue Mansion after the big bird rescued her from the Well of Time.

……

I didn't expect he still kept it.

Song Weichen felt a strange feeling in his heart and couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad.

Just as I was about to leave, I caught a glimpse of an orange object on the back of the paper in the glass bottle, flashing in the sunlight.

She went around the tree and got a good look at the orange object.

A paper crane, just like the one she had always carried with her but lost in her dream.

No, that's not right...

That’s the one!
She coughed up blood at that time, and one side of the wing of the paper crane was dyed red by her blood. Over time, it turned into dark red, no different from the thing in front of him.

...So, it wasn't a dream.

It turned out that the thousand paper cranes were not lost, but... they were taken back by him.

So, when he gave her the paper crane, he said, "Light it up when you want to see me. No matter where I am, I will come for you."

He also took it back.

……

"Your Excellency, shall we...shall we continue walking?"

The guard commander saw the man in white standing under the tree in silence with a gloomy expression, fearing that something unexpected would happen again. As an ordinary ox or horse, his workload for today was already overwhelmed, and he really could not afford any more accidents.

"Okay, let's go."

Song Weichen came back to her senses and silently followed him into the heart of the mansion. She also imitated the commander, lowered her head and tried not to look around - nothing had changed, only people had changed, which made people suddenly sad.
.
"Pretty young lady, haha, haha, don't be like this, haha, you'd better...haha, beat me up! I'm a rat with itchy skin all over my body, and I can't stand this! Ouch, oh oh, haha!"

Before I got close, I could already hear the loud voice of the little pig coming from behind a screen, and his laughter was worse than crying.

Speaking of which, Xiao Biezhi has made great progress recently. He has been practicing diligently in the Yukui Void Realm every day and has successfully upgraded his "system". Now, when he speaks, not only Song Weichen and Mo Tingfeng can hear him. As long as Xiao Biezhi is willing, he can communicate with anyone.

It can even communicate not only with humans, but also with rodents such as squirrels, beavers, rabbits, hedgehogs, and porcupines without any obstacles. It is truly the world of mice. iFLYTEK.

"You monster, what is your purpose here, and who do you serve? Tell me!"

"If you don't tell me, I'll tickle the soles of your feet."

Coral's voice didn't sound friendly, but there was something funny about his words.

"No, no, no! I'm so cute, how can you tickle the soles of my feet! Big sister, help me~~~~"

Xiao Biezhi howled even more wildly, obviously knowing that Song Weichen had arrived - she did not disappoint the commander, and quickly jumped past him from behind, then disappeared behind the screen.

"Your Excellency!"

The commander was so panicked that he ran over like an abandoned old dog.

……

"stop."

"Miss Coral, what are you doing?"

When Song Weichen heard the sound and people arrived, he saw the little meat ball, which was almost deformed by the immortal rope, placed on a flower stand. Coral was tickling its armpit with a goose feather. Four servants from the mansion stood beside it. They were obviously trying to hold back their laughter, and their cheeks were almost cramping.

I guess these guys were really surprised. It was the first time they saw goose feathers being used to interrogate "prisoners".

"My Lord, you are finally here. If you don't come, I will be finished~~"

Little Meatball was about to call her "Big Sister", but then he remembered Song Weichen's instructions and immediately changed his words.

It forced two drops of moisture out of its round, black bean-like eyeballs and looked at Song Weichen aggrievedly.

"They bullied me."

"It's no secret that when it comes to killing rats, you still have to look at the owner first!"
