Ah Zhu had just swallowed some fruit, which contained a lot of water, which moistened his throat and was perfect for cursing.

"You are really too much. It's so disappointing! I didn't disturb you from practicing this afternoon. I even listened to you and practiced for several hours. But you, since..."

Ah Zhu was holding a plate of fruit. In the barren land of Goulongbang, it was still early spring, and this kind of fruit was a rare commodity. She was reluctant to eat more, and now she expressed her intentions.

"I'm so pissed. When I was cutting for you, you only ate the leftovers. I thought about your hard work, but you were messing around with someone else. No wonder you wanted to see the princess and take off other people's clothes. You rascal, a big bastard!"

Ah Zhu felt more and more aggrieved as she spoke, her words as fast as a gun. She threw the plate in her hand to Xia Xiao, turned around and walked away. After a few steps, Ah Zhu stopped again and stamped her feet in anger.

"Explain yourself!"

Xia Xiao picked up the fruit pieces that fell on him and stuffed them into his mouth. When he looked at Ah Zhu, a smile appeared on his face. From this point of view, this guy is quite cute.

"What are you laughing at? Tell me!"

Ah Zhu looked fierce, frowned in grievance, and had tears in the corners of his eyes.

Seeing Xia Xiaoxiao, she became even angrier. Stamping her feet was not enough to express her anger, and she even pretended to hit someone. If it was a stranger, Ah Zhu would definitely not care, and would even laugh at him for being indecent. But since it was Xia Xiao who did such a nasty thing, she was particularly angry and her lungs were about to explode.

Compared to Azhu's anxiety, Xia Xiao was just chewing the fruit in his mouth, looking relaxed as if he was watching a show.

"You let me explain it all, so you must have believed me. I didn't let you down."

Xia Xiao stopped talking after this and just raised the plate in his hand, which still had half a plate of fruits. These peeled fruits looked a bit like the Hami melons Xia Xiao had eaten in his previous life, with soft flesh around the edges and crispy skin, but they were all very sweet.

"asshole!"

Ah Zhu rushed over and snatched the plate, sitting next to Xia Xiao, holding back the tears that had burst out earlier. She held the plate, extremely angry, turned around and punched Xia Xiao on the shoulder. One punch was not enough, Ah Zhu punched again. Xia Xiao's muscles were hard, Ah Zhu couldn't hit him, so she put the plate down. This time she didn't give it to Xia Xiao, this bastard ate half a plate in one breath, and he still had the nerve to call himself a pig.

The porcelain plate slipped out of her hand, and Ah Zhu, with a stubborn face, hit Xia Xiao's right shoulder. This time, no matter how she made a fuss, Xia Xiao didn't say she was annoyed. The feeling of being trusted by others is always good.

"Have you had enough?"

Xia Xiao's tone was calm, neither gentle nor cold, but it made Ah Zhu take two steps back and shouted:

"Why did that woman do that to you?"

"He should be here to atone for his sins."

"Luckily you didn't do that with her, otherwise she would have been in trouble. She would have been slapped in the face and fucked by you for nothing."

Ah Zhu was still shy when she mentioned this topic, because she had thrown many punches before, and her face was slightly red, like a real red apple. The shy girl didn't want to talk about this kind of thing, so she shut up obediently, but looking at Xia Xiao, he was almost the same as usual, but a little different.

"What are you looking at?"

Ah Zhu was eating melons and felt shy. She felt her face turn red, and she didn't know why. She had never been like this before.

"I think you're pretty cute."

“You just discovered it now?”

Straightening her back, Ah Zhu was secretly happy, thinking that God had finally opened his eyes and Xia Xiao was no longer blind. Ah Zhu suddenly had a strange thought in her mind, wondering if she would be with him. This was not the first time she had thought of this, so she was immersed in her own world.

Ah Zhu thought of a very beautiful picture. They lived in a brand new and clean castle. In front of them was a spacious long table, surrounded by chefs, making delicious food for themselves. Xia Xiao sat beside her and peeled shrimps for her. Ah Zhu felt that it was a very happy thing to have someone peel shrimps for her while she was eating, but she had only enjoyed this treatment once. That was after leaving the Dragon Palace. She slept for a long time. After waking up, Xia Xiao took her to eat barbecue, and he peeled shrimps for her.

Although it was only once, Ah Zhu always remembered that Xia Xiao was very gentle and considerate at that time. He removed the shrimp shells and put them in the bowl for her. He peeled one for each shrimp she ate. But after that meal, she never enjoyed such treatment again. Thinking about it now, it was really wonderful.

Ah Zhu had stars in her eyes, thinking that if that could really happen, she would be the happiest person in the world. But her beautiful fantasy was suddenly shattered by a voice, which made Ah Zhu angry.

"What are you thinking about?"

"None of your business!"

Ah Zhu saw Xia Xiao coming, ate the fruits on the plate in a few bites, and then ran out with the plate. Seeing her back in a skirt, Xia Xiao muttered something.

"What a weird guy."

Xia Xiao's affection for Ah Zhu was growing, but it stopped there. But this was a good thing, because if he was ambiguous with her, something bad would happen.

Lying in bed, Xia Xiao was in a good mood, but when he thought about it, he felt confused. But now he hadn't got the necklace yet, so what was there to be happy about?

Xia Xiao didn't dare to think too much, because he hadn't been happy for a girl for a long time, not even for a moment. He had looked at the crowd in the distance in Yu Valley, Haikou, and even in the Royal Court, hoping to see a figure similar to Shu Shuang, but there were thousands of people, and no one looked like her.

Exhaling a long breath, Xia Xiao suddenly turned over. It was getting dark and it was time for dinner. Because of Ah Zhu, Xia Xiao's dinner was always like a war, the pace was very fast, but she had her own principles, always considering many people, and would not eat everything just because she liked something. She always remembered what her grandma taught her very clearly. But she took the food in the bowl very seriously.

The next day, the fat monk came back with the necklace, smiling.

"It's done."

Xia Xiao took the spherical black stone necklace from the fat monk and felt even more awed.

"Thank you, senior."

"It is only natural for seniors to help juniors."

"But you brought it back without even knowing what I wanted it to do?"

"How do you know I don't know what you're going to do?"

This is like a tongue twister. After saying this, Xia Xiao and the fat monk smiled at each other. Today, they planned to have a good chat, one for the necklace in their hands, and the other for the sudden interest.

"What do you think my mission is?"

When Xia Xiao asked, the fat monk smiled but said nothing. He didn't seem like someone who pretended to be profound, but seemed to really know why Xia Xiao did what he did, but he didn't say it. Maybe this is part of the Buddhist principle, Xia Xiao didn't understand, but the fat monk did it for a reason.

"Instead of talking about that, I'd rather tell you how I brought it back."

"Please speak, senior."

I have a lot of free time today. Compared with Yu Gu Haikou, such days are rare. Xia Xiao once complained that the fat monk was too busy, but now he feels a little guilty, so he wants to have a good chat. When chatting with people on the mountainside, even if it is talking about the difference between scrambled eggs with tomatoes and scrambled eggs with tomatoes, there is a chance to understand some truths.

Being at different heights, one can look at a problem from different angles. But the fat monk was going to disappoint Xia Xiao, because he didn't have that much connotation, and what he said were all simple things.

After yesterday's conversation, the cultivator Longgu beside the princess relaxed his vigilance against the fat monk. When he brought the boiled medicine to the princess today, he asked the princess if she had the habit of wearing jewelry. This was not the first time the fat monk asked this question. Yesterday, he asked Longgu a lot about the princess, including her diet and living habits. So it was not surprising that he asked about the jewelry she carried with her. The princess answered honestly and said that she only carried one bead with her.

The fat monk said no, so the princess took it off.

The fat monk's status was greatly improved as the princess did not cough yesterday and slept soundly for the whole afternoon. Even Longgu looked at him with admiration. The medicinal materials were still the same, and the doctors and doctors who had been invited had also used them.

Some quack doctors used a lot of magical medicine, but it was useless. Instead, it increased the burden on the princess' body and made the situation worse. But although the fat monk's medicine was not cheap and many medicinal materials were rare among the people, the disease did improve.

The people of Gou Longbang clan never trust outsiders, so as soon as the fat monk left yesterday, Longgu invited the best doctor in the country. Although the doctor could not cure the princess's illness, he stabilized her condition for a period of time. When he saw the fat monk's prescription, he suddenly realized it and even said he was a genius. Longgu really believed in the fat monk, so when the latter proposed that the necklace was not good for the princess and wanted to study it, he immediately agreed.

"Do you know the origin of this necklace?"

Xia Xiao did not mention the black energy, but the senior must have known about it. The latter did know about it, so he asked about the origin of the necklace, but its existence was somewhat beyond his original expectations.

"This necklace has been passed down from generation to generation by the women of the Goulongbang royal family. It has a history of three hundred years."

Seeing the senior's expression, Xia Xiao felt that there was more to it, so he asked again, "What else?" Xuyun knew that Xia Xiao would ask, he was very careful and observant. But the rest of the things sounded like a long-planned conspiracy.

Ah Zhu watched from the side, propping up her white chin. She didn't understand a lot of what was said, but she still wanted to listen. At least she was also a member of the mission, and she couldn't let her master down. But what were they talking about? She was so confused. Ah Zhu dozed off, tilted her head, and almost fell to the ground.

Xia Xiao, who was chatting enthusiastically, didn't want to pay attention to Azhu, but she was moving too much.

"Go back to bed."

It was late in the afternoon, and it was time to take a nap. Ah Zhu went back to sleep, leaving behind a lazy back. Xia Xiao looked at her and was slightly distracted. My goodness, she could fall asleep even after listening to such an important thing. What a wonderful woman.

Ah Zhu felt that someone was looking at her, she could sense this. When she turned around, she saw Xia Xiao's gaze and smiled very sweetly. Seeing Xia Xiao look away, Ah Zhu was even happier. Since she was still shy, it was impossible to tell!

It was this indescribable look again, which made Xia Xiao a little scared. He was wrong and shouldn't have looked at it. Xia Xiao felt that he couldn't go on like this, he was afraid something would happen. Since he thought Ah Zhu was cute, it was really a terrifying thing.
