Chapter 050 Chapter 50
In the end, Mo Xuanji just hugged his arms, snorted, and gently turned it over.
"Remember to tell me in advance when you leave next time." Mo Xuanji still had a stern face. After noticing the system's nervousness, he slowed down his voice and explained, "Actually, I'm not angry. I just don't like people around me to leave without saying goodbye."
"At least let me know that you are only leaving for a while, not..." Perhaps because he felt it was a bit unlucky, Mo Xuanji did not finish the sentence. However, the system understood what he meant.
So the system returned to its gentle and reliable voice at the beginning, and said seriously: "I will not leave you. If that day really comes, I will let you know in advance."
"Okay. I've got that in mind." Mo Xuanji lowered his head, turned around and went back to the study.
Before he could calm down, he saw Liu Liu standing on the food box, looking at him eagerly.
The box is talking, and it looks like it has been hungry for a long time.
Mo Xuanji suddenly felt like laughing. He rubbed Liuliu's head, thinking of its particularly enthusiastic performance today, and suddenly realized: "You are suddenly so enthusiastic today, could it be because I have something delicious?"
"Chiu!" Liu Liu jumped down from above lightly.
As soon as the food box was opened, Mo Xuanji smelled a fresh sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance. The food box was filled with delicate and small off-white pastries, decorated with some fresh sweet-scented osmanthus flowers.
“This must have taken a lot of effort, right?”
Mo Xuanji touched his aching conscience and nodded. He took out a piece and put it on a small plate. Liuliu happily jumped over and ate it, smelling the fragrance.
Since Liuliu had eaten real food some time ago, he has become particularly interested in food. After all, the taste of energy balls is no match for a delicious meal.
The system made an envious sound in the sea of consciousness: "It's really good. I want to have a taste too."
"Does the system have a sense of taste?"
"No, but the system can also be experienced in other ways." The system suddenly remembered something, so it rubbed its hands and laughed: "Jizi, let's discuss something."
"You say."
"I want to connect my five senses with yours, so that you can taste my food."
"It's not impossible." Mo Xuanji looked at the box of cakes and hesitated. If it's just a little, it should be okay, right?
Thinking of this, he broke off a small piece and tentatively put it into his mouth.
I don’t know what the pastry is made of, but it melts in your mouth and has a slight sweetness.
"I can actually... eat it." Mo Xuanji was stunned. He had already prepared himself to feel sick, but he didn't expect that he could actually eat it.
He picked up a piece of cake and examined it carefully. His mind moved slightly, and a small drop of azure blue "water drop" slowly floated out of the cake, with some scattered energy particles around it. Without this drop of "water drop", the appearance of the cake instantly disintegrated into a pool of powder. Liu Liu heard the movement and came over curiously, but lost interest after just one look, and turned around to continue eating his portion.
These powders were just ordinary rice noodles, and Yuheng's body still couldn't swallow them. Mo Xuanji looked at them, and a small light bulb suddenly lit up in his mind.
"so it is……"
The system shouted in the sea of consciousness: "Quickly, quickly, bring that man back to be the chef! The salary is negotiable!"
"Forget about it, they've gone far away." After teasing them, they still want to keep them as slaves. The black-hearted capitalists would shed tears when seeing this.
Not long after, official personnel also came.
"Senior, aren't you going back to the tribe today?" Zhao Wencheng was a little surprised to see that he was still there.
According to custom, no matter what the demons do outside, they must return to their own tribe on this day.
Yuheng had a faint smile on his face. He waved his fan gently and picked up Liuliu: "They are all here."
Are they all here? Zhao Wencheng was stunned for a moment, but then he quickly realized what was happening and lowered his head guiltily: “Sorry.”
He thought to himself: Damn it!
Although I have never seen it in real life, based on knowledge and big data system analysis, I am sure that this little red bird is actually a fire spirit. The essence of a fire spirit is a dead mass, and there is no such thing as a tribe. And the senior said that his tribe is all here, which means that he is just one person... No, a demon is a tribe.
Whatever the reason, it is a painful thing for the older generation.
Damn it, I'm asking for no reason. Why else could my senior not come home? Why did I have to ask this question? Zhao Wencheng slapped himself in his heart.
Mo Xuanji, who had no idea what Yu Heng's true form was and which tribe he belonged to, could only count six or six of them. She was shocked by his reaction and quickly poked the system: "What's going on? Why does he look like that? Did I say something wrong?"
Actually, it wasn't a wrong thing to say. The system was silent for a while, then slowly said, "Don't panic, there's nothing wrong."
Perhaps he realized that he had said something wrong, Zhao Wencheng felt guilty and cleaned the first floor of the antique shop inside and out. Yuheng couldn't stop him.
"Senior, if you need anything in the future, just contact me directly on your phone." Before leaving, Zhao Wencheng left his personal contact information.
Yu Heng, who didn't know that he had evolved into an empty-nest elderly in the eyes of the other party, smiled and nodded: "In that case, I am sorry to bother you."
…
After regaining consciousness, Mo Xuanji opened his eyes and couldn't help but yawn.
He subconsciously glanced at the time. Very good, two fifty, ten minutes later the administrator would have to break in.
Mo Xuanji put away his phone and prepared to go out, but it suddenly vibrated. Mo Xuanji was a little confused, and after opening it, he found that it was a text message.
It was sent by Zhu Changan, but the content seemed a little off.
Changan: [Address]
Changan: [Your friend is in my hands now. Come here if you know where to go. Remember, you are the only one here. If I find out there are other people here, you will bear the consequences yourself.]
"?"
As if afraid that he would not believe it, the other party sent another video. In the dim room, Shen Liuxue and Zhu Changan were tied together with their backs facing each other, with their eyes closed, and they seemed to be unconscious. They had deep and shallow scars on their bodies, but strangely, there were no signs of a fight in the room.
Mo Xuanji stood up with a bang. He looked through the video carefully, his expression becoming increasingly solemn.
The system was shocked: "Oh my god, blackmail!"
Mo Xuanji frowned, and he quickly called Shen Liuxue, but the call was hung up. After a while, a text message came from Shen Liuxue's phone: [Don't be ignorant, come here quickly. Remember, you are the only one here]
"What should we do? These two children are in their hands!" the system worried.
After a brief panic, Mo Xuanji calmed down. From the video, it can be seen that there is only one kidnapper, and it is not ruled out that the others have hidden. The person who can knock Shen Liuxue unconscious and tie him up must be very powerful. But...will the seniors really do such a thing?
Wilde's phone was turned off, and he couldn't be contacted. Mo Xuanji thought for a moment and took out a stack of talismans. Although these looked a bit rough, as long as there were enough of them, it would not be a problem to blow up a mountain. To be cautious, he set up a few scheduled emails.
Mo Xuanji followed the address sent by the mysterious person and finally came to a tree house. This place is remote and few people have been here. Therefore, the three rows of footprints outside the door are particularly obvious.
Mo Xuanji looked at the neat footprints and the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.
From inside the door could be heard Zhu Changan screaming for mercy, as well as the kidnapper's evil laughter: "Hahahaha, scream as much as you can, but no one will come to save you even if you scream your throat out!"
"Broken throat! Broken throat!"
Mo Xuanji sighed resignedly. After thinking for a moment, he decided to step in and yelled in full cooperation, "Let go of my companion!"
"Bang!" Colorful streamers sprayed all over his face.
"Toot, toot, toot--" Zhu Changan puffed out his cheeks and helped his son blow the toy trumpet with all his might.
"Happy Birthday!" Shen Liuxue and Wilde each held two small fireworks in their hands. They pulled them gently, and colorful ribbons sprayed out with sparkling little stars.
"Hahahaha, I told you that you would definitely kick the door down and come in?" After all, it is the traditional art of the Feather Tribe.
Wilde laughed and snapped his fingers, and a small crown of the birthday star appeared on Mo Xuanji's head.
The room was decorated with all kinds of festive decorations, and there was a pile of gift boxes on a table not far away. It was obvious that the person who decorated the room had put a lot of thought into it.
Mo Xuanji was still a little confused. He looked at everything in front of him and felt helpless for the first time.
"Surprise~" Zhu Changan waved the trumpet at him and showed a brilliant smile.
"How did you know today is my birthday?" Although I had vague guesses along the way, I was still very moved when I actually saw it.
Wilde smiled and pulled Zhu Changan over, hugging his neck and saying, "This is a great loss to Changan."
Zhu Changan chuckled: "Secret." In fact, it was a birthday message pushed by the communication software. With Xuanji's personality, she would definitely fill in her real birthday honestly.
As he spoke, Zhu Changan pulled Mo Xuanji in.
Looking at the smiles on her friends' faces, the corners of Mo Xuanji's mouth curled up slightly unconsciously.
"Thank you."
"Hey, Xuanji is smiling!"
"As expected, a smile that comes from the heart is the most beautiful."
Mo Xuanji quickly pursed her lips, her face flushed: "I'm not laughing, you guys are seeing things wrong."
"Okay, okay, no laughing, come~ look at this~" Shen Liuxue smiled and walked to the table, opening the gift box in the middle. A large, not-so-delicate cake appeared in sight.
It was obvious that the person who made the cake was not very skilled, and was busy covering up the imperfections with fruit. On the side of the cake, "Happy 19th Birthday, Xuanji!" was written crookedly with strawberry jam. I don't know if it was because the water content was not controlled well, the words were a little smudged, and the red jam slowly flowed down, which gave a creepy feeling.
Sitting on the flat surface of the cake was a round little cream creature wearing a dunce cap and a magic hat, with a few chocolate poker cards placed next to it.
Looking at the cake, Mo Xuanji suddenly choked up. It was the first time he realized how difficult it was to hold back tears, and that when one was extremely happy, one would really feel a warm feeling in the heart.
"Hehe, Xuanji really likes this!" Zhu Changan's face was still covered with cream that had been smeared on it at some point.
Wilde took off the apron from around his waist and put it aside: "Come on, let the little birthday star blow out the candles."
Mo Xuanji was surrounded by three young friends who were singing birthday songs. She felt touched and a little ashamed. She quickly made a wish and blew out the candles.
"Did Xuanji make a wish?"
"Um."
"You can't tell me, or it won't work if you tell me."
Finally, the little creamy thing appeared intact on Mo Xuanji's plate.
The system let out a series of laughs in its sea of consciousness. "Jizi, take a picture of it quickly. It's so cute. Hahahaha. Take a picture of it. My friends have spent so much time making it. If you eat it in one bite, it will be gone."
That makes sense. Since it was his birthday today, Mo Xuanji decided to meet the system's requirements. He took out his phone and took a picture. After thinking about it, he set Creamy Little Ji as his profile picture.
The cake looked a bit ugly, but surprisingly delicious. Mo Xuanji thought that he would remember this taste for the rest of his life.
