snake king beside

Chapter 196
"After a few days of practice, it depends on your skills. You can practice the first move quickly. Then the next few moves are not a problem for you. The moves are not difficult. It mainly depends on your tacit understanding. Hurry up, but I don't know when." Uncle Bai looked meaningfully at the two helpless and hesitant faces.

After listening to Uncle Bai's words, Chu Lixiang slumped on the table, thinking: This is over, I will never get out, never think about going back to that world that belongs to me, I will definitely die of old age in this secret room inside.

"What's wrong with her?" Seeing Chu Lixiang's reaction, Grandma Qi couldn't understand, she frowned and looked at Chu Lixiang who was lying on the table and sighing, she looked at Jun Feimo and asked in understanding.

"Uh...it's nothing, she's just a little tired from listening, it's okay, it'll be fine in a while...hehe..." As she spoke, she tried to pull Chu Lixiang up, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get up.

"Forget it, if she likes it, let her do it. We've said what we have to say now. You can practice well in the next few days. Later, I will ask Xiaolu to bring you all the food and supplies. In a few days Let's see how it works." Granny Qi said as she glanced at Uncle Bai who was nodding at the side, and signaled to go.

"Hey, mother-in-law, you haven't told us the eighth trick yet..." Jun Feimo stopped Granny Qi who was about to go out.

"The last trick, when you have practiced these tricks, I will naturally come and tell you when the time comes, get ready to practice now, let's go, Xiaolu, you also come with us, prepare some things they use and send them over. "While walking, he ordered Xiaolu who followed behind.

Uncle Bai went out, turned his head to look at Chu Lixiang who was lying on the table, shook his head cheerfully, and stroked his beard that he couldn't put it down. The door of the secret room was also closed, leaving only two What to do, the two who can't find the clue.

"What can I do? I'm going to die of old age here. I originally wanted to come here as a tourist. If it doesn't work, I will live in the Snake Palace. There is another you I know, but now, it's over. , It's all over, I can't go back to my home, and now I'm still trapped in this secret room, if I fail to practice, I'll stay here forever..." When Chu Lixiang heard the door close, he let out all the complaints in his stomach over and over.

"Don't think so much. If you want to go out, the most urgent thing is to practice this move as soon as possible, otherwise, as you said, you will die here, but don't be sad if I accompany you. It is also a matter of saying that we can die here. Pretty job, right?" Jun Feimo walked to her side and sat down, looking at her tilted head and squinted eyes, she seemed a little happy.

Chu Lixiang gave him a blank look with a disappointed expression on his face, "It's nice to say, as long as you can die of old age, who are you and who am I? I'm an ordinary person who can't be more ordinary. One day I will You die of old age, and you, the master of this resplendent and magnificent Snake Palace, and you are also a god-man who has practiced skills, how could you die of old age? Just say something nice! Hey..." He raised his head and lay down on the table again, After speaking, he let out a long sigh.

"Chu, why do you say that? I won't let you die here. You have to believe in our tacit understanding and ability. We will be able to go out. Besides, even if we can't practice chess, Mother-in-law won't have the heart to let us die here." Jun Feimo held her shoulders with both hands, gently helped her up, and said while looking at her.

"Well, she can't bear it, but she can't bear it to you, not to me. Didn't you see the expression she looked at me? She doesn't like me, I have an intuition!" Chu Lixiang sat up straight, eyes sweeping He opened the door of the secret room, very pessimistic.

"Nonsense, Granny Qi doesn't dislike you, she just doesn't know you well enough. She will definitely like you even more when she knows you! Now we have to hurry up to practice, or you will really get what you want..." Jun Feimo persuaded with a smile Looking at her, I was also worried that it would be difficult, so I wanted to practice as soon as possible.

"No, no, you can practice by yourself, just let me wait here to die, anyway, I can't practice that, it's better to lie down and wait to die than to spend so much effort." Chu Lixiang didn't think about it at all. When I got up, I couldn't get up a little bit of energy at the moment.

"Chu, you, do you love me?" Suddenly, Jun Feimo changed his smiling expression just now, and looked at the dejected Chu Lixiang very seriously.

"What are you talking about? This...what does this have to do with practicing?..." Chu Lixiang's nerves were touched when he heard what Jun Feimo said. He sat upright and looked at the squatting Jun Feimo, who was looking at him affectionately and sincerely beside him, said with some embarrassment.

"Yes, of course, if you love me, you should know what I'm thinking. You are a smart person, you should feel it, right?" Jun Feimo said while holding Chu Lixiang on his lap hands, raised his head, staring intently.

Chu Lixiang looked at the affectionate person at the moment, and slowly shifted his evasive eyes to him, "I know, of course I know, but the gap between us is too great, I can't keep up with your rhythm at all Ah, the first trick is just my luck, what if I really can't keep up? Does that also implicate you?" She looked at Jun Feimo anxiously.

"I'll wait for you. It doesn't matter if you can't keep up. I'll wait for you until you can keep up. We'll finish it together. If you really can't do it, I'll stay here with you forever..." A comforting sentence, although short , but it made Chu Lixiang feel warm, she stretched out her hand to touch the face that was dignified because of herself, she couldn't bear to struggle, and she had to work hard for him.

"Hmm..." Chu Lixiang hummed a word in a low voice, her pink little round face became more mature, and no one could compare to that kind of natural beauty.Jun Feimo looked at the corners of her mouth slightly raised, a comfortable smile hung on her face.

"Then let's start, come on." Jun Feimo took her hand and slowly helped her up. The two looked at each other and walked towards the platform.

"I said Aqi, why didn't you tell His Highness the eighth move?" Uncle Bai asked while stroking his beard.

"Tell them in advance? It will only make His Highness more impatient, so that he will not be able to practice these moves well. Don't you know his character?" Grandma Qi glanced at Uncle Bai who looked at her suspiciously and said.

"Then what is the eighth trick?" Xiaolu was anxious at the side, and ran forward and asked with a smile.

"You? You don't need to know. Just do your own thing. Hurry up and prepare some necessities, which will be delivered to them at night. Do you want to watch them starve to death?" Grandma Qi said angrily, not at all. give face.

"Oh, I see..." Xiaolu pouted and looked at Uncle Bai who was smiling while walking, Uncle Bai pointed at her, Xiaolu stepped forward and shook his arm, acting like a spoiled child.

In the distance, on a desolate mountain, there was the sound of crows, and the intermittent wind blew the leaves in the forest not far away, making a frightening sound. There was no village around, and there was a sound from time to time in the shining mountain. Sighs and wild laughter, vaguely like wild laughter, seem to be emanating from deep underground, dark and weird, making people feel like life is coming to an end.

This mountain is called 'Jiuwei Mountain', and what is sealed in the mountain where there are bursts of strange noises is Princess Lixiang's beloved Poxue. Back then, the two had an affair because of their relationship, and Princess Xiang was sent to the world. Suffering, while Poxue was imprisoned here. He is the Lord of the Six Paths. Because of this sealing, his heart was full of hatred. He vowed to avenge the suffering he suffered for so many years. We must wipe out all the people who are not good for us, leaving no one behind.

The only thing that has not changed is his domineering and arbitrary love for Princess Lixiang. Except for her, he regards everyone in the world as an enemy, and there is no one worthy of his trust. Just use it.He is waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the day when he can regain hegemony and stand alone!
Jun Feimo and Chu Lixiang seriously started the practice that they will last for a few days, not only to practice tacit understanding, but also related to their future skills. In this troubled world, only by constantly strengthening ourselves can we make ourselves stronger. Live better and more freely with those you want to protect.

Xiaolu is constantly busy changing supplies for them every day. The necessities such as meals and clothes are only sent in through the secret passage, and she has never entered the secret room. I don’t know how their practice is going. As they said, they have never been here before, and they have to wait until the day they practice to see the results. The two often get together to discuss the results and future directions, and discuss how to solve problems for Jun Feimo and let the Snake Palace continue. Its splendor and peace.

A few days passed, and Uncle Bai came to Grandma Qi in a hurry, as if something had happened: "A Qi! Ah Qi!" Shouting, Uncle Bai hurried into Grandma Qi's small courtyard gazebo.

"What's the matter with you, old Bai, you're in a hurry, what's the matter?" Grandma Qi saw Uncle Bai coming, and before he walked in, she picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of fragrant tea, without panicking. asked slowly.

"You know that I arrived at the Snake Palace one step earlier than Chu and the others. Chu first went to check the situation on the border. When I passed by Jiuwei Mountain, I heard some villagers say that villagers have been missing in recent months, and there has been no news of them. No one has any signs, and they have searched all the places but have not found their bodies, not even a single item..." Uncle Bai recounted nervously.

"What does this have to do with us? Although we don't kill people indiscriminately, it doesn't mean we have to respond to this matter? Do you want to help if you don't kill? What do you mean by being so anxious? Could it be?..." Grandma Qi put down the teacup she was holding, and her expression changed from a relaxed and contented expression to a dignified expression with ominous omens.

"That's right, what you're thinking now is exactly what I'm thinking! The incident happened in the Jiuwei Mountain area, this can only explain one problem..." Uncle Bai stood up and walked in the gazebo, stroking his white hair fluttering in the wind from time to time. Hu Zi, hesitating to speak, looked at Grandma Qi.

"Well, there's a reason for that. It's just that those villagers have suffered, and they've been used for no reason. But then again, what's the use of these villagers? Coolies? Or increase their troops?" Grandma Qi also slowly He got up, and walked to Uncle Bai with doubts while thinking.

Uncle Bai stroked his beard again, and shook his head: "It's not like, I don't know where to think about it at the moment. Now I can only wait for Chu's news. He went to inquire again, hoping to gain something..." Uncle Bai Stroking his beard, he walked to the table and sat down, picked up the water Granny Qi had just poured, and took a small sip of the tea with the lid of the cup.

"Now we have to wait. This kid is really good. He is capable and smart. He is a good seed. You did not choose the wrong person! Hehe..." Granny Qi sat opposite Uncle Bai and pointed at him, saying with a smile .

"Hehe... That is, of course the best choice is to be chosen for His Highness! He has good qualifications and good character. We can rest assured that a person like him stays by His Highness's side." Hearing Granny Qi's praise, Uncle Bai said, I couldn't keep my mouth shut anymore.

Grandma Qi picked up the teapot to refill Uncle Bai, and Uncle Bai respectfully greeted him, looked at the surrounding scenery and said, "Your place is as quiet and elegant as ever, I'm fine, I'm here to drink tea and chat, I'm in a good mood! Hahaha..." After speaking, Uncle Bai stroked his beard and laughed.

"You, after a trip to the human world, you still look the same when you come back. I'm not like your "Qingshui Pavilion". It's wealth!" Grandma Qi put down the teapot in her hand and squinted her eyes, her face full of envy and appreciation.

"Both each other, hehe, both serve His Highness. We are both the same, and you have paid a lot." Uncle Bai said modestly, but there was still a complacent look on his face.

"Oh, by the way, Ah Qi, are you not too satisfied with that girl in the world?" Uncle Bai asked after taking a sip of tea, suddenly thinking of this matter.

"Why do you think I don't like her?" Grandma Qi drank her tea, disapproving of what he said.

"Why do you see that? Hehe, Aqi, what is the relationship between us? We have been friends for thousands of years. I can tell what you are thinking just by looking at you. Every time I see you looking at that girl, you are full of tears. Not happy, why?" Uncle Bai wanted to get to the bottom of it, and then asked.

Grandma Qi didn't answer right away, but just blew on the tea leaves in the teacup, with a slight smile on her lips, she put down the teacup in her hand and looked into the distance, "You think so?" She asked back with a slanted smile after finishing speaking.

"Of course, isn't it?" Uncle Bai seemed to want to know the final answer and kept asking.

Grandma Qi looked back at him, smiled and shrugged with a helpless expression, "We have been in a relationship for such a long time, you should also know my personality, right? I have always been like this to strangers, not to mention her background and her qualifications And I don't know anything about her character. Even if I see something now, I can't take it lightly. This is disloyalty to His Highness. For his safety and everything, I would rather be a stern and not be affected by her. favorite character."

"So that's the case, but your worry is a little unnecessary. I have investigated this girl when I was in the world. She used to be what they call a professional killer. It should be what we are talking about now. The job of collecting money and doing things for others, but she She is a poor child. I just found out that she was sold when she was a child. She was just a student when our Highness met her. Afterwards, I returned to the Snake Palace, so I didn’t investigate further. Your Highness should know everything about her." Uncle Bai told Granny Qi what he knew, hoping that she would put down her guard and accept her.

"I mentioned this Highness to me before, but I still want to understand her myself. This is my principle of doing things..."

"No, since you don't believe her, why do you let her practice with His Highness? This is a compulsory course for our Snake Palace Snake King. Don't you worry that if she is what you think, it will be bad for His Highness?" Uncle Bai was very pleased. It was because he didn't understand Granny Qi's conflicts before and after, so he asked Granny Qi before she could finish her sentence.

"I don't think about what she is like. I just want to understand her in my own way. I didn't say that she is a bad person or a harmful person. Now His Highness only values ​​her. She is the best person to practice this exercise. This can also help His Highness to practice as soon as possible, and I just take this opportunity to get to know how she is." Granny Qi glanced at her mouth a little shamelessly, and glanced at Uncle Bai who was looking puzzled.

"I don't understand, I really don't understand! You've confused me!" Uncle Bai was dazed by Granny Qi's gossip, and anxiously picked up the teacup and drank the whole cup of tea.

Grandma Qi looked at the lovely Uncle Bai with a smile, and shook her head: "Okay, I don't dislike her, I just observe and observe, so you understand? You old bastard! You are still that impatient, more anxious than me!" As he spoke, he picked up the teapot and filled Uncle Bai with tea.

"Are you still talking about me? It's fine to say no earlier, it's so mysterious, when do you think they will be able to practice?" Uncle Bai wanted to know if Granny Qi was thinking the same as him.

"What do you think?" Grandma Qi asked back.

"Here it is again! You deliberately made fun of this old man!" Uncle Bai looked at Granny Qi with a beard and aggrieved eyes.

"Hahaha... okay, okay, I won't tease you, judging from the level of the two of them practicing the first move, it should be in the past few days, if it wasn't because the girl borrowed Princess Lixiang when she first came here It may be faster if she has to use the body of Princess Lixiang in order to become herself, because Princess Lixiang taught her the method of leaving the body before leaving, which made her own strength and skill almost incomplete, so It may be slower in comparison, but she is very resourceful and cooperates well with His Highness, so it will be a few days at the latest." Granny Qi's words showed a lot of love and respect for Chu Lixiang .

"Let me tell you, that girl is a good boy, and in time she will be able to help His Highness do great things!" Uncle Bai said affirmatively while stroking his beard and looking at Granny Qi with a smile.

"Okay, don't think too highly of her, let's see how she behaves in the future! Drink tea! How about I ask the kitchen to make something to eat, and you can have a cup with me?" Grandma Qi knew what Uncle Bai liked, so she intentionally Arouse his alcoholism.
