Chapter 396 Brother, the melon is so sweet



dull.

Quiet.

The light and shadow of childhood have long faded.

But today, because of the spots of light leaking through the leaves and the presence of my brother beside me, the gray world has become colorful again.

Xu Moli lives a happy life.

Forget all your worries.

Forget all your worries.

Immersed in a world that only consists of her and Xu Xi.

Everyone has their own definition of utopia in their hearts.

Xu Xi looked up at the sky and gently stroked his sister's soft long hair, thinking that this might be his sister's utopia.

It has nothing to do with the Supreme Being of Immortal Cultivation.

But it is the precious fantasy that the mortal Xu Moli has been dreaming about and longing for for countless years.

"Spend more time with Mo Li." The dazzling sunlight made Xu Xi narrow his eyes slightly. While he was thinking, he had already made plans for the future.

Night time.

Xu Xi cooked a table of delicious dishes with skillful techniques.

The ingredients are not special, just some common vegetables, but with the magical cooking skills, the surface of the oily dishes sparkles with a faint golden light.

“Hmm…”

Xu Moli sat at the dining table.

Looking at the table full of glowing dishes, he fell into deep thought.

"This isn't the first time I've seen this, but... I'm still surprised."

"Brother, how good are your cooking skills?"

"It's just an ordinary ingredient, but it can have such a magical effect."

The girl frowned.

While puzzled, he chewed the food cooked by Xu Xi mouthful by mouthful.

"Brother, can you teach me how to cook?"

"Of course, but why are you suddenly..."

Xu Xi was a little surprised.

This was the first time that his sister proposed to him the idea of ​​learning cooking. Xu Xi was very curious why she suddenly had this idea.

Xu Moli’s answer was simple.

She said that since she was a child, it was always Xu Xi who cooked, and she felt bad about it.

"Brother, I'm grown up now, so leave things like cooking to me from now on."

The girl laughed.

He said he would definitely make the most delicious food.

That confident look frightened Xu Xi, and finally, he agreed to Xu Moli's request.

It is better to do it today than to wait for a day.

After dinner, Xu Moli picked up the stove and decided to try his hand at cooking.

Her cooking skills actually have a certain foundation, but they are not as profound as those of the witch and the robot servant, and she does not have Xu Xi's brilliant ability.

"If my brother can do it, there's no reason why I can't..."

The girl muttered.

After careful consideration, thinking and trying, I tried to make a glowing dish for Xu Xi.

About half an hour later.

Xu Xi saw the following scene:

The pot was filled with burnt smoke, the color of the vegetables was distorted and weird, and black bubbles were bubbling out, like an indescribable monster from another world.

The flames rose and the walls turned black.

There is an unpleasant and pungent smell that slowly penetrates into the nostrils.

Xu Xi laughed. He neither criticized Mo Li's cooking nor reprimanded her harshly. He just comforted her in a tactful tone:

"It's okay, Mo Li."

"I believe that one day, your cooking skills will catch up with mine."

afterwards.

Xu Xi and Xu Moli cleaned the stove together and tidied it.

In a corner that Xu Xi couldn't see.

Xu Moli silently forgot one of the strategies in “One Hundred and Eight Strategies to Win a Man’s Heart”.

[To capture a man's stomach is to capture his heart]

This strategy is not wrong.

But unfortunately.

The girl could not find the possibility of success.

The days that followed remained dull and ordinary.

In your spare time.

Xu Xihui and Xu Moli would sit at home and chat, listening to each other's stories after the first simulation.

Or you can leave home and go to the market in the city.

And go to the mountains and forests, relying on inhuman experience to collect some wild things that can be exchanged for money.

Time is silent.

Time leaves no trace.

Gradually, people nearby knew about the existence of the Xu brothers and sisters.

Some farmers sent fruits and vegetables as a token of friendship.

There were also some people who were arrogant and domineering. When they saw that there were only two of them, they wanted to do something illegal.

However.

Such ideas are often not implemented.

The person involved disappeared tragically.

"Brother Xi, you are so lucky. Wang Erhu is a well-known villain in the area. Fortunately, he was captured by the gods and could not harm you."

An old man sighed and said that God has eyes.

Xu Xi was chatting with the old man nearby and agreed: "Yes, God bless you."

So.

Who is this god?

Xu Xi, who possesses the status of both a true immortal and a god, finds it too difficult to guess.

In a blink of an eye, a month has passed since I came to this mortal world.

Hot summer.

We have officially entered the Great Heat stage.

The scorching sun seemed to ignite the air as well.

It was hot and suffocating, and people were wearing thin clothes just to seek a little coolness in the heat wave.

The sound of cicadas fills the ears, and the green waves of midsummer.

Even wearing cloth shoes or straw sandals, the scorching hot roads still made people miserable.

Xu Xi also reduced the number of times he went out.

Most of the time, he would rest at home, eating watermelon with his sister, watching the summer heat waves hitting the treetops, waiting for the stunning intersection of red and green.

"Brother, this melon is so sweet."

Gently hold the cool watermelon.

When you take a bite, you can feel the crunchy texture, and a sweet taste rushes into your mouth, bursting with your teeth.

The girl ate sweetly and happily.

Because of the fast speed, there was a large circle of water stains and a small amount of red fruit foam on the corners of his mouth.

Xu Xi wiped the corners of the girl's mouth.

Afterwards, he picked up a slice of watermelon and ate it with Xu Moli.

"Yeah, it's really sweet."

The blue sky, the hot air, and the only sound left in the hot world are the rubbing of green leaves and the occasional flying insect.

Everything seems like a replica of the old days.

The former Black Rock City.

The brother and sister also held a slice of watermelon each.

But Xu Moli was only four or five years old at that time, and his legs were not as long as the threshold.

And now.

She fulfilled her long-cherished wish.

He successfully grew taller and accompanied Xu Xi with a mature attitude, sharing Xu Xi's worries and paving the way forward for Xu Xi.

"Brother, I'm sleepy~~"

Xu Moli was very full after eating.

After eating.

She fell skillfully into Xu Xi's arms, looking sleepy.

That posture was very similar to that of a robot servant, which made Xu Xi feel that the loyal robot servant might have led his sister astray invisibly.

"Then take a nap."

There was no revealing of the girl's thoughts.

Xu Xi wiped his palms with a clean cloth, and then gently wiped Xu Moli's face to remove the remaining watermelon juice.

The summer is quiet and the atmosphere is lazy.

Accompanied by the faint chirping of cicadas, the girl who was originally just pretending to be asleep gradually felt sleepy.

She lay in Xu Xi's arms.

Makes a slight resting sound.

Xu Xi adjusted his sitting position to allow Xu Moli to sleep more comfortably. He gently stroked the girl's hair on her forehead with his fingers, slowly soothing her uneasy heart.

The summer heat turns the outside world into a furnace, continuously scorching everything.

But Xu Xi sat in the cool house with Xu Moli, and in the small space of only two people, they successfully avoided all the exposure to the sun.

"It hasn't changed at all..."

"Mo Li, she's still so dependent on me."
