Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

Then, Nian took out a huge speaker from behind his back. When he was about to turn it on, he suddenly felt something empty under his feet.

"Oh?" Nian looked down and found that the forest beneath her feet had turned into a huge hole without her knowing. However, Nian was not panicked at all. Isn't it too easy to trick her in this way?

But Nian did not resist and let himself fall into the deep pit. He was bored anyway, so he played with his sister for a while.

And Nian also wanted to see what surprise Xi had prepared for her to teach her a lesson.

The pit was not too deep. After a short while, Nian landed gently on the ground. Then he looked around. At this moment, there was only darkness and endless emptiness.

"So I entered the painting without knowing it?" Nian looked around curiously. "No, my casting must have been placed in the painting by Xi first."

"That's not right." Nian touched her chin. This was not the kind of casting that she had casually thrown on the ground before. She still put some thought into it. If Xi picked it up or put it into the painting, she should be able to sense it.

"It seems like I was already a painting when I first came here." After all, Nian understood his sister well. After noticing the problem, he immediately thought of the first time he came here. He was probably already a painting without realizing it.

The entire Gray Mountain might have been covered by the scroll, so Nian was unaware of it when she first came in, and her castings were taken into the painting without her noticing, because they were originally in a painting.

"Xi! You're not going to do this to me, are you? Not really~" Nian put his hands to his mouth and shouted, "I just want to introduce a friend to play with you~"

"Leave me!" In the empty space, Xi's slightly angry voice suddenly sounded, "What friend? You must want to trick me again. Leave me now."

"Ahaha." Nian shook his head helplessly. It seemed that his credibility was really totally gone in front of his own sister. He might even be in a state of arrears.

"Don't be like this, we haven't seen each other for so long." Nian looked up at the hole on his head that had disappeared without a trace, "See you, okay? Let me hug you~"

"No, who asked you to hug me? I don't want to see you." Xi's voice was filled with a firm refusal, "Leave now, I know you can leave directly."

"Really? We haven't seen each other for several years. I rarely come here and you treat me like this." Nian looked up pretending to be sad. She knew Xi could see it.

"If you don't leave now, I won't be polite." Xi Wuqing's voice came from the darkness, sending the final message to Nian.

"No..." Before Nian could finish his words, the hole that was originally slightly bright suddenly fell into darkness, and there were numerous sounds of breaking through the air.

——————Studio in the painting——————

"Hmph!" Xi looked at the scroll unfolding in front of him. In the ink-and-wash scroll, Nian tossed and turned in the void, avoiding the phantom of himself drawn by Xi that kept rushing towards him.

If Nian didn't want to leave, it would be difficult for her to leave now. It would be useless to use the firecrackers she used before to blow them up directly, as they would only fall into another layer of the painting.

Of course, if Nian plans to use the coordinates he left outside, he can still leave directly.

Of course Xi still hoped that Nian could find out and leave as soon as possible, as she didn't want her paintings to suffer too much loss.

"Hmm?" Xi suddenly turned his head and looked behind him, but there was nothing else in his life except some ink spirits who helped him carry the scrolls.

"Strange..." Xi withdrew her gaze with some confusion. Just now, Xi felt like someone looked at her from behind.

However, Xi did not relax her vigilance just because she didn't find anyone. Perhaps it was Nian's trick, so Xi checked the scroll she released as quickly as possible.

But there was still no gain. In the scroll she released, there was no one else except a young monk who had come in before.

After confirming it several times, the result remained unchanged, so Xi turned his attention back to Nian.

Behind Xi, a "Moliang" cast his gaze towards Xi, then revealed an intelligent expression, looked around, then lowered his head and picked up the scroll he had just thrown away, and put it back into his mouth.

——————Fragments of the painting——————

"Oh my, it seems to be okay." Nian lowered his head casually and dodged the slash from the clone created by his sister.

To be honest, these clones are just annoying. They are far from being enough to threaten Nian. Anyway, they are just to kill time and play with my sister.

If you want to go out, it's very simple. Nian can still sense the objects he has cast on the ground, so you can go out at any time if you want to.

It would be easy to destroy it, but considering that Xi might really ignore her after it was destroyed, Nian did not choose to take out the special firecrackers to blow up the place.

Just when Nian dodged an attack from another clone, she felt her body was out of control and someone seemed to be pulling her away from behind.

"Hmm?" The moment after Nian disappeared, Xi's slightly puzzled voice sounded again, "Did he finally run away without being able to resist?"

——————The world in the painting·Poshan Town——————

"Oh?" When he came to his senses, he looked at Xiyue, who was standing there dressed like a doctor, with some confusion, "When did you change your clothes?"

"Oh, it's not me who changed it." Xiyue shook her head, "It's just that this person was originally wearing this outfit."

"Hmm?" Nian's eyes were slightly strange, "What does this mean? Oh no, compared to this, have you attracted Xi's attention? If you attract Xi's attention, this surprise will not be fun anymore."

Xiyue shook her head: "No, I wanted to come in directly, but I found that I penetrated the painting directly when I touched it slightly."

“Normal, normal.” Nian nodded. This result was exactly what she had imagined. Her original plan was for her to go in and find Xi’s location, then directly bring Xiyue over. As for Xi’s scroll…

How can a piece of painting bear the weight of an ocean?

"What is this now?" Nian looked down and saw that he didn't know when he had changed into a jacket. After feeling it carefully, Nian raised his eyebrows and said, "Is this my sister's painting?

"Ink is also water." Xiyue waved her hand. "I thought of a way to reduce my presence, and then I found that I could slip into Miss Xi's words."

"As for you now, I used my water clone to cover you as a disguise after assimilating you. I tested it a little bit and Miss Xi should not be able to find it."

"Oh, that's great." Nian rubbed his hands with excitement on his face, "Since Xi has painted such a town, she will definitely come to see it from time to time."

"As long as we find her and then suddenly jump out, we will definitely be able to give her a big surprise."

Chapter 165: Don’t come over here!

"Your sister is blessed to have a sister like you." Xiyue looked at Nian helplessly.

"Then you are also my accomplice." Nian put his arm around Xiyue's neck, "We are in the same boat. By the way, aren't you a little short?"

"Yeah." Xiyue nodded, "It's about ten centimeters shorter, which is the original height of this person. It's actually not that bad."

Nian nodded in understanding: "Why can't I just stand on tiptoe to hold your neck?"

Suddenly, Nian seemed to have figured something out, and suddenly said, "Wait, so Xiyue, your disguise is to directly replace the original person in this painting?"

"Yeah." Xiyue nodded, "Ink is water, so as long as we assimilate them, we can disguise ourselves. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

"Then can you replace it with a Mo Liang?" Nian suddenly remembered something interesting, "Those little animals that usually follow my sister."

"Of course you can." Xiyue looked at Nian with strange eyes, "So, what do you want to do?"

"Xiyue, are you sure my lovely sister won't find out~" Nian's voice was full of joy. She came up with a good idea, a better idea than the previous one.

"No." Xiyue looked at Nian with a smirk on his face and realized that he might want to do something big: "What do you want to do?"

"I have a good idea, a very, very good idea." Nian rubbed his hands, "It will definitely give my sister a big surprise."

"Don't go too far." Xiyue tapped Nian's head gently, "Otherwise, if your sister hates you in the future, it will be none of my business."

"Don't say that~" Nian patted Xiyue's shoulder, "Xiyue, you agreed to come here on your own, we are accomplices."

Xiyue smiled, then tapped Nian's forehead gently: "Come on, tell me your plan. I can't guarantee that if Miss Xi investigates carefully, she can find us."

Nian rubbed his hands together, with a smile on his face as if his prank was about to succeed: "Hehe..."

——————Studio in the painting——————

Xi looked at the scrolls in front of him, searched carefully, and checked repeatedly: "I can't find any trace of her. It seems that Nian has indeed left."

But even though Nian's departure was confirmed in the scroll, Xi's brows did not relax, because that feeling of being on edge still did not disappear.

"That guy must not have given up." Xi was extremely sure of this, but what would the other party prepare to come in? A large number of special firecrackers? As long as she was alert, that kind of thing would never get close.

Is that something else? But if it’s Nian, what else would it take?

Behind Xi, the two Moliang suddenly stopped. Red lines appeared on the body of one of them, and then it decisively dropped the scroll in its mouth.

Meanwhile, dark blue lines appeared on the body of the other "Moliang", but she did not drop the scroll in her mouth like the other "Moliang". Instead, she gently placed the scroll where it should be.

"I really didn't notice it." Nian muttered to herself. She knew that as long as Xiyue could hear her, Nian could also initiate a telepathic communication.

However, if the telepathic call was initiated by Nian, Xi, who was extremely vigilant, might discover it, so Xiyue's was used.

Another reason is that after a short period of experimentation, Nian discovered that if they were possessed by the Mo Liang, they would not be able to speak and could only make croaking sounds.

And the Moliangs also have their own language. When they were possessed, the other Moliangs were wondering why they suddenly started speaking in dialect?

"If Miss Xi examines carefully, she should be able to find it." Xiyue manipulated Moliang to pick up the scroll that Nian had just thrown away and put it aside, "So don't jump too much."

"I understand, I understand." Nian nodded, then walked to Xi's side in silence with a wicked smile.

"Hmm?" Xi looked down at the "Mo Liang" who had been replaced, raised her hand and touched the "Mo Liang"'s head, and her originally serious face immediately changed into a relaxed smile, "What's wrong, didn't you accidentally wet my painting again?"

"Wow, I've never seen my sister look so kind to me." Nian looked up at Xi, who was now showing tenderness, "Let alone getting the painting wet, Xi would get very angry if I moved a little bit."

"Are you sure there's no other reason?" Xiyue's voice rang in my ears, "If you wet the painting, it's understandable that Miss Xi would be angry, but if she won't let you move, there must be another reason."

"Ahem." The young man coughed twice, and the eyes of the "Moliang" he replaced were wide open. "Don't expose me so quickly, I... I didn't do anything, really."

Xiyue controlled Moliang to talk about the picture album beside him, and silently complained in his heart: "It's full of guilty voices."

"What's wrong?" Xi rubbed Nian Moliang's head, "Why do you look like that?"

Nian shook her head decisively. She hadn't done her prank yet and couldn't let her sister find out.

"Don't you want to move things?" Xi looked at "Nian Moliang" and guessed the possible reason. These Moliang also have their own emotions. When they were painted, their own emotions had already been born.

These ink spirits were named Ayao by Xi. They were very smart and at least could understand what she said, so Xi put some of them in the studio to help with odd jobs.

After all, Xi doesn't really want to clean the house or anything like that, and although the Ayaos can be naughty sometimes, at least they are obedient most of the time. But you have to remember to change their work from time to time, otherwise they might cause trouble.

Sometimes you have to pay attention to them from time to time, otherwise, the Ayaos will feel lonely and may become autistic and stop working. If you ignore them, they may do something unpleasant to attract attention.

After touching Nian Moliang's head, Xi looked at him and said, "Next, help me grind the ink."

'Eh! '

Before Nian could react, it felt like a piece of ink was stuffed in his mouth. Fortunately, perhaps because he looked like Xiyue's incarnation, Nian did not taste the ink in his mouth.

"Grind the ink. I think we can add some good stuff into it..." Nian, who was full of ideas, immediately thought of a good idea, but then he realized another problem, "Wait, how can I grind the ink in this state?"

Just when Nian was still thinking about how to grind the ink, he found himself as if being picked up and put on the table, and then the inkstone was placed in front of him.

"Come on." Xi looked at the dazed "Nian Moliang" in front of him with some amusement. To be honest, this job was originally a very difficult job for Moliang, because they could hardly lower their necks.

Moreover, this job doesn't actually require Mo Liang to do it, it's just ink, and for Xi, it can be done easily.

But in order to prevent the child from making trouble out of boredom, Xi simply assigned him an extremely difficult task, which should be able to attract a lot of attention.

'Puchi...' Xiyue, who was wiping things at the back, couldn't help but laugh. This was a case of not being able to cheat anyone, but being cheated instead.

After thinking for a while, Nian kicked the inkstone to the side of the table with his short legs, then jumped down, holding the ink block in his mouth and rubbing it repeatedly on the inkstone.

To be honest, I don’t know how to grind ink, but it shouldn’t be a big problem anyway.

"Hmm?" Xi looked at "Nian Moliang" in a strange way. "You weren't that smart before. Are you used to this job? Good, good, you're doing really well."

Although it was a bit strange, considering that he had called some Moliang to grind ink before, perhaps they were used to it. Then he touched the head of "Nian Moliang" and went back to painting at his desk.

"This habit is not a good one." After finishing what could be done, Xiyue strolled around in her seat, admiring Xi's paintings and observing Nian and Xi.

"Your waist is bent too low." Xiyue looked at Xi and was a little worried. If he used such a low table to draw for a long time, "Will there be some problems with his waist? No, do giant beasts like Xi and Nian have waist pain? They should have, right?"

Elemental creatures like Xiyue who have been completely elementalized definitely don’t have such a thing as back pain. Xiyue doesn’t even have a spine. But do Nian and the others have that?

"I remember having their files, which prove that their body structure, at least on the surface, should be no different from that of ordinary Terrans. In other words, in theory, they would also have back pain, right?"

Then, Xiyue poked Nian with doubt.

At this moment, Nian was taking advantage of Xi's inattention and secretly took out a bottle of strong-smelling chili powder from his pocket, and then put it into the mouth of the Mo Liang that he was possessed by.

He was just about to secretly spray the chili powder into Xi's water cup when she wasn't paying attention. Even if he bit it with his mouth, Nian could ensure that the chili powder would fall accurately into Xi's water cup.

Just as Nian was about to take action, she felt Xiyue seemed to poke her: "Hmm? What's wrong, Miss Xiyue, I'm busy?"

"Ahem." Xiyue's voice was slightly curious, "I want to ask, do you have such a thing as back pain?"

"Waist pain?" Nian's voice was a little doubtful, but he still answered Xiyue's question honestly, "Yes, our bodies are similar to those of Terrans, except that they are a little special. Is there any problem?"

"Ah, no, you continue." Xiyue hung up the connection with Nian and looked at Xi, "Indeed there will be, so should we urge them to do it?"

"What a weird question." After Xiyue hung up her call, Nian curled her lips.

Then Nian glanced at Xi who was concentrating on painting, and directly sprayed the chili powder wrapped in a material that he had forged on the way here that could be completely dissolved in water into the water cup.

"Hmm?" The sound of something falling into the water attracted Xi's attention. "What was that sound just now?"

After seeing that the water in the cup he had put in had turned completely black, Xi immediately looked at Nian Moliang standing beside him: "What did you just do?"

"..." Nian remained silent. She was not sure whether Xi could understand what her creation said. They hadn't seen each other for a long, long time. If she could understand, she would be exposed immediately once she spoke.

As for why the water in the cup turned pitch black, it was not intentional on Nian's part. It was simply because of the ink spirit that possessed her.

"Are you feeling guilty?" Xi looked at the creatures in front of her. Because she basically didn't care about her own creations, these creatures were quite bold towards her and sometimes even played pranks on her.

However, compared to her annoying sister, the pranks of the ink spirits were quite simple, which were nothing more than smearing certain places with ink or biting her scrolls.

Compared to the prank that Nian played on Xi, Mo Liang's prank would at most only cause Xi's blood pressure to rise a little, while the prank of A Yao in front of him was most likely to spray ink into him.
