Chapter 88 Chapter 88 Li Baili hooked her finger,...
Li Baili hooked her fingers, and the willow branches suddenly tightened the fox's neck inward. The fox's voice was stuck inside its neck, and it could not make any more sounds for a while. It could only stare fiercely, frown, and grit its teeth.
However, if this fox did not have willow twigs around its neck, this appearance might scare some people, but it had willow twigs around its neck, like a collar, trapping it. No matter how it grinned, it did not look scary, but rather funny, like a specially trained performing animal in a circus.
The fox himself also realized this from the looks of others. He lowered his head, snorted, and began to play dead, not wanting to pay attention to these irrelevant Penglai Sect disciples.
The fox thought to himself: I was extremely powerful in the past, and could eat a hundred people in one breath. Now I have fallen and become such a weak and useless person. It's ridiculous!
One day, I will be awesome again! I will just give in to them for now. Let them think I am weak, and then I will bite their heads off, let them know how powerful I am! Let them dare to look down on me!
You actually want to eat me! How dare you! I will definitely take revenge! Seriously!
Li Hanshuang glanced at the fox and smiled at the patrolling disciples for the first time. His expression was relaxed and his tone was teasing: "This is not for eating, so you don't need to take it to the kitchen."
The patrolling disciples looked at each other and took a deep breath.
Is the leader crazy today? He actually smiled at us? He used to only sneer! What did he do when he went out? Wait, the Demon Lord was next to him, what did they do? The leader was so happy? Why was he happy?
Did they have a fight?
Soon, someone noticed the red pomegranate gemstones on Li Baili and Li Hanshuang, and was shocked.
These two things seem to be exactly the same. Moreover, the Demon Lord didn't have it when he came last time, and the Sect Master didn't have it on him before he left! Did they go shopping together? They were even willing to buy the same thing to use together? This is a pair!
Is that right? Isn't it usually the case that couples like to use the same things and they just happen to be a pair?
By the way, if you are a couple, you have to be super unintentional to let others notice you. When others ask you about it, you can say that you just chose it randomly and just happened to choose the same one. This proves to others that they are a perfect match and have a great relationship!
People looked at each other.
A patrolling disciple couldn't help but ask Li Hanshuang: "Did you buy this bunch of red pomegranates today?"
Li Hanshuang nodded.
"Did you and the Demon Lord buy it together?" the patrolling disciple asked again.
Li Hanshuang laughed: "Yes, we bought them together."
The patrolling disciples looked at each other and immediately said, "Then we won't bother you anymore!"
Li Hanshuang nodded: "Let's go."
The patrolling disciples immediately walked away and exchanged glances secretly.
Patrol Disciple 1: Oh my god! Such shocking news! The Sect Master and the Demon King have reconciled! They fought so hard before! Was it because of the previous heavenly sacrifice ceremony?
Patrol Disciple 2: Although I felt that this day would definitely come after I knew the first question and answer asked by the Sect Master during the ceremony after the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony, I didn’t expect it to come so soon!
Patrol Disciple Three: Do you think that the Sect Master and the Demon Lord reconciled because they received a positive answer at the ceremony, so they had to go find the Demon Lord and invite him over to repair their relationship, or did they do it willingly and had planned it all along?
Everyone was silent for a while, because they felt that unless they asked the person involved, it would be difficult to find the actual answer to this question from the perspective of an outsider.
Patrol Disciple 4: Did we misunderstand before? Maybe the relationship between them is not the kind of irreconcilable and hatred-based relationship we imagined at the beginning?
Although the Sect Master mocked the Demon Lord and provoked him to fight with him, he did not necessarily have nothing but hatred for him. Otherwise, he could have handed the task of receiving the Demon Lord to someone else and avoided him himself. Out of sight, out of mind, and to avoid trouble.
Or, before the contract was signed, he could go find the Demon Lord and kill him, even if both sides would suffer losses or perish together. The Sect Master is not a person who fears death, let alone a person who fears war. If there is a deep hatred that cannot be reversed, why didn't he do these things before? Have you ever thought about it?
Everyone was silent for a while and couldn't help but look at him: So what do you think is going on between them?
Patrol Disciple Four thought about it, stroked his chin, and couldn't help but sigh, like an old man basking in the sun on a recliner, and said, "Love and hate mixed together, right?"
Everyone thought about it, and suddenly it dawned on them, as if it was indeed the case.
The patrolling disciple said, "We can't just look at the surface of things. Just like what happened before, although the sect master has lost the face of the Demon Lord several times, he is always trying to get closer to the Demon Lord. Do you feel it?"
The second patrol disciple agreed and nodded: "Take the time when the Demon Lord came to sign the contract. Although the Sect Master provoked him, he still asked him to stand beside him and pour tea for him. The Sect Master would not let other people he disliked get close to him, let alone ask them to do things for him."
The second patrol disciple couldn't help but sigh and said, "We didn't realize it at the time. In fact, the sect master trusts the Demon Lord very much. Otherwise, he would never let the Demon Lord touch the tea he was about to drink. The sect master believed that even if the Demon Lord was provoked by him, he would never take the opportunity to poison him.
It seems that in the sect master's heart, the Demon Lord is an upright and honest person. The sect master also knows that the Demon Lord has a good temper. However, the better the Demon Lord's temper is, the more uncomfortable the sect master will feel.
Maybe the sect leader would think, now that you have such a good temper, why did you hurt me in the first place?
You are always like this, doing whatever you want to do, but you never take me seriously, as if I am always insignificant to you, and can be abandoned in comparison at any time. I have had enough of this kind of life!"
The third patrol disciple said, "Do you remember the banquet? The sect master asked the Demon Lord to sit next to him, which was supposed to be the seat for the sect master's wife.
I'm afraid that the Sect Master did this not only to humiliate him, but also to take the opportunity to get closer to the Demon Lord. However, they just couldn't agree on anything, so they started fighting after just a few words.
But who knows what they did in heaven? It took them a while to come back! Maybe all that time wasn’t spent fighting.”
The third patrol disciple whispered, "It may be that the sect master tried to make his point clear, but the demon lord didn't believe it and picked up on the sect master's thoughts. The sect master became angry and refused to admit it."
The fourth patrol disciple added: "The extra red locust flower strings on the Sect Master and the Demon Lord today are not only exactly the same, but the Sect Master himself admitted that they were bought together. Is it possible that the Sect Master would buy things for his enemy? Absolutely not!"
He looked around, lowered his voice, and said carefully in everyone's ears: "In my opinion, the sect leader is definitely secretly in love with the Demon Lord!"
Then he said with a sigh: "It's just that the sect master couldn't forget the sword that the Demon Lord gave him. He couldn't control his love, nor could he bear his hatred, so he became what he is now."
Everyone nodded as they listened, and couldn't help but agree, "It's really a mixture of love and hate."
At this time they had already walked far away. Li Baili and Li Hanshuang also carried the fox and found the location of the insect that the fox mentioned. They were standing outside Blackbeard's yard.
Li Baihe and Li Hanshuang looked at each other, then looked at Fox and asked, "Are you sure it's this?"
The fox nodded and swore, "It won't be wrong!"
The fox said this and waved one of its paws at the two of them. There was a small, compass-like object stuck in the paw. It looked like a broken blue fragment, with a small silver needle inside.
The needle was now turning, pointing to the yard in front of them without hesitation. Then it trembled slightly and stopped moving, emitting faint light bit by bit, as if shouting at the top of its lungs: It's here, it's here, there's no mistake!
"Can this thing be taken down?" Li Baili was a little curious. She grabbed the fox's claw and squeezed it. She felt that the blue fragment was very sharp and would cut her blood if she was not careful. However, the closer she got to it, the more attractive it felt, to the point that she felt a little dizzy.
Li Hanshuang realized that the situation was not good. He frowned and looked sullen. He grabbed Li Baili's wrist and quickly moved Li Baili's hand away from the fox's claws.
The fox was frightened by Li Hanshuang's sudden burst of momentum. Its body stiffened, its eyes widened, and its hair suddenly exploded. The whole fox swelled up and trembled, with its tail stretched straight out like a wooden stake about to be driven into the ground.
An uncontrolled whimper escaped from the fox's throat, but soon its whole body trembled and it tried to swallow the sound back. It stared with a pitiful expression that mixed fear with a hint of flattery, hoping that it would not die just because Li Baili pinched its paw.
He really didn't seduce Li Baili! Really!
Li Baili gradually came back to her senses and took a look at the fox. She found that two of the fox's hairs had fallen off. She smiled at the fox and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know that I couldn't touch that thing."
The fox quickly shook its head and waved its hands, even its tail began to wag. The whole fox was red, as if it had just been splashed with a basin of blood, and furry, like a fox-shaped sea urchin. It squinted its eyes, showed a fawning smile, and said while whimpering, "It's okay, it's my fault for not telling you in advance."
He paused, looked at Li Hanshuang cautiously, then hesitated and said softly: "Actually, this is not something that cannot be touched. It's just that I made it using a special method. Apart from me, if anyone else touches it, they will feel a little dizzy, but it will be gone after a while."
