Ah Zhu packed the dried meat that Long Li gave her that day into her backpack. She deliberately kept some of it and prepared to leave. She did not open Long Li's cabinet. Although she did not lock it, Ah Zhu would not go too far. Grandma said that people should know when to stop and not be too greedy, otherwise they will have no friends.

"Let's go, Doudou!"

Doudou followed Ah Zhu happily, running down the stairs and to the square. Xia Xiao stood with the senior sister, and when she looked at Ah Zhu, she had no extra expression, just waved, which was enough to make her happy. She hadn't seen him for three days since she and the senior sister had looked for him that day.

Three days is not long, but it is definitely not short for Ah Zhu. In the past, she would see Xia Xiao's cold and stinky face as soon as she opened her eyes, but now she can't see it anymore and misses him instead.

The light from the east hit Ah Zhu's face, making her smile even more sunny. She was always like this, seemingly free of worries, which made Xia Xiao envious. Thinking back now, the time when I returned to Zhenxun and lived in Xia Mansion was the happiest, but I can't go back. The imperial capital Zhenxun is still there, and Xia Mansion has not disappeared, but I have changed, and Shu Shuang can't come back.

"Good morning!"

Doudou, who was behind Ah Zhu, stuck out her tongue and ran wildly with Ah Zhu. She held the shoulder strap of her backpack with one hand and raised the other hand to high-five Xia Xiao, and officially opened the door to the early morning with a crisp sound.

Spring is almost over, and the peach blossoms all over the mountains are about to bloom. Xia Xiao usually didn't pay much attention to them, but when he looked at Ah Zhu standing on his left, he noticed that the peach forest behind her had already bloomed some petals. If you look at it individually, there are very few peach blossom petals on a tree, only a few. But from a distance, it looks like a pale pink in the green, as beautiful as a painting.

"What are you looking at?"

“The flowers are blooming.”

Ah Zhu also went to see the peach forest under the morning sun, which was extremely beautiful. When the eldest sister cast her eyes, Xia Xiao suddenly asked:

"Big sister, have you ever heard about Feng Xin Ba Xiang from Senior Hu Bugui?"

“I’ve heard of it.”

Following Xia Xiao's gaze, the elder sister looked at the stone bench on one side of the square. On it stood a white porcelain basin, in which white garlic had eight leaves, some large and some small, two of which were just grown yesterday, extremely green. It was basking in the morning sun, enjoying the beautiful and quiet morning. But Xia Xiao's gaze was too fierce, tearing apart the short and beautiful morning, revealing in advance the hardships that would be faced today.

"You have been deceived by Gong Qingge. This pot of garlic flowers will not betray the academy. It is he who has truly fallen into the path of evil and has been blinded by it! He said so much to you just to make the academy more chaotic so as to achieve his goal of being invisible. If I am right, he is waiting somewhere for the academy to be in chaos, and then he will come back as a demon and seize this place."

The academy is the center of the Great Wilderness, and it is of great significance, but Xia Xiao finds it hard to accept it for a while. Although he doesn't understand Gong Qingge, why is there so much deception in this world? Xia Xiao has seen a lot of deception, and he usually looks at the world with evil eyes. But a disciple of the academy, who was once the number one in the same class, would also fall to this point?

Xia Xiao was terrified of the magic path. It must be a very beautiful thing, otherwise it would not be so attractive. From the mother star dragon and teacher Ganar, Gong Qingge was a genius of that year, so he would submit to the magic path.

Compared with Gong Qingge and the senior sister, Xia Xiao chose to believe the latter. Therefore, when he put the wrist guard on Ah Zhu's left wrist and asked her if she felt uncomfortable, he put the matter aside.

From that ice field to now, only five months have passed, and Xia Xiao's life has changed dramatically. And everything he does now is to make up for it. If we use the tone of the golden spirit beast, we can also say that it is for the people of the world. Only if he does better and more can there be fewer miserable people like himself in the world.

"Get ready to go."

The eldest sister activated the talisman array, and Ah Zhu said to Dou Dou:

"Go find the uncle yourself!"

Doudou barked twice, and then Azhu, whose whole body was covered by the golden light of the talisman array, grabbed Xia Xiao's hand and bit his lip.

Xia Xiao did not let go, but held her tightly to make her feel better. Ah Zhu had not even reached the stage of condensation, but had to hide the aura for himself and the eldest sister. Although the one traveling with him was not the real eldest sister, but one of her clones, it was enough for Ah Zhu to use all his strength, even exceeding his own load.

Ah Zhu closed her eyes tightly. Although she felt a little uncomfortable, she insisted on not making any sound. She never liked to hold back, but now she wanted to show off in front of Xia Xiao, so she suppressed her curiosity and did not ask who Feng Xin Baxiang and Gong Qingge were. She soon couldn't hold back and cried out, but in the tunnel of the talisman array, Xia Xiao couldn't hear her without using her energy to send her words to her ears.

The senior sister had anticipated this situation. She was the vice president of the academy, but she didn't know how much Ah Zhu could bear.

At this time, the eldest sister made clothes with peach blossoms, which made Ah Zhu's clothes flash with a few strands of light pink light. When it disappeared, Ah Zhu returned to normal.

Half an hour later, Xia Xiao and the other two appeared in the grove beside the road. Sitting under a tree, Ah Zhu wiped the sweat from his forehead and couldn't help complaining.

"It's better to ride a horse."

"You've worked hard. Take a break."

The eldest sister sat under a tree nearby. For this trip, she deliberately wore normal clothes. But this pale pink outfit with peach petals was still very eye-catching. Xia Xiao had said it before, but he couldn't stop her. For the eldest sister, this was already a rare thing. Since she got rid of her student status, she had not dressed properly.

In comparison, Xia Xiao and Azhu looked much more normal in their grey outfits. If they were older, they would be able to truly blend in with the crowd.

Xia Xiao sat beside Ah Zhu, lost in thought. Now that she had lost her Pu Dao, it would have been fine if she hadn't gone out. But now that she was here, facing an unknown battle, she felt like she was missing a lot of things, and her heart was uneasy. As Shang Shan had said, without her, Xia Xiao would have been finished.

"Give!"

Ah Zhu took out a bag of dried meat from her backpack and handed it to Xia Xiao with a smile. The latter saw her raise her hand and took it.

"There's no shortage of food anywhere, pig."

Although she was insulted, Ah Zhu, who was distributing meat jerky to the senior sister, still smiled. She was still worried that Xia Xiao had become estranged from her. It seemed that everything was the same as before. Chewing the meat jerky, Xia Xiao once again experienced the feeling of eating meat for three minutes and picking teeth for half an hour, but the taste was still very good.

Ah Zhu said that she had left this specially for Xia Xiao, which made him a little flattered. He thought he should say something better, and after weighing it, he said:

"At least my love for you was not in vain."

"How do you care about me? You just bully me!"

"Have you thrown away the chopped pepper fish from Yugu and the barbecue from Haikou? There was also the barbecue from Goulongbangshi and the half cake from Nanshang. We were on the road that day, and there was no village or store in front of us. I gave you the half cake."

"Who told you not to tell me? If I knew there was only half a sheet, would I not give you a share?"

"I'm just worried that you're hungry. Every time you're not full, you keep grumbling. It's annoying to hear you."

Although Xia Xiao's tone was a little harsh, Ah Zhu started to laugh again. Seeing her like that, Xia Xiao regretted it. He already had enough things to do, and he couldn't be ambiguous with Ah Zhu anymore. Although he felt that what he said was not excessive, he was afraid that Ah Zhu would think too much. If she confessed her love to him, he would be in trouble.

The elder sister sat aside, watching them like this, and felt like she was back in her youth. Although she was a latecomer, she had also played with her male classmates in the church of the college. Although they had long since died in the tide of time, that memory was really beautiful. Holding her chin, the elder sister recalled the beautiful memories. It was a pity that flowers may bloom again, but people can never be young again.

"Let's go into the city, we'll take a walk, then we'll go to the Prince's Mansion at dinner time and have a good meal!"

Hearing the senior sister say this, Ah Zhu came over.

"Big sister, you are so down to earth!"

"I'm not arrogant, but there are too many things to do in the academy and I don't want to talk. Besides, there are not many serious people in the academy. After all, they all advocate individuality."

The eldest sister hadn't been out like this for a long time. Although traveling alone was convenient, it was a bit lonely. Being with young people always makes you younger, and she has tasted the sweetness. After entering the city, the eldest sister found that there was no black air, so she started to revel. This was also within her expectations. The woman was injured and even taken away by her accomplices. It was not strange for her to do these things secretly afterwards.

The eldest sister and Ah Zhu held hands and ran around, buying things, returning to the little girl they used to be. The two of them had no money, so they gave the things they bought to Xia Xiao. He estimated his wallet. Fortunately, they went to fewer places this time, otherwise it would be difficult to eat later. And fortunately, they came to the Southern Business Capital, where there were many beauties, otherwise the eldest sister's peach pink dress would probably attract a lot of attention. They still had to keep a low profile now, looking up at the emperor like ordinary people, so that the latter would not notice.

After walking down the street, Xia Xiao and Azhu carried a lot of things, but the eldest sister still had nothing in her hands. She didn't know how to carry anything, so she just asked Azhu:

"Why did you buy so many men's things? Knee braces and shoes, none of them are your size."

The elder sister seemed to be doing it on purpose, how could she not see it? Ah Zhu thought she really didn't know, so he glanced at Xia Xiao, picked up a pair of shoes, and muttered:

"Give it to Xia Xiao."

Xia Xiao, who had her ten fingers hooked around the bag, was stunned for a moment. She watched the senior sister walk forward proudly, but Ah Zhu walked slowly to her side. She blinked playfully and asked in an extremely abnormal way:

"Am I sparkling in your eyes?"

Xia Xiao raised his eyebrows. "Big sister, are you reminding me that Ah Zhu has a crush on me, or are you trying to embarrass me?" If this goes on, something bad will happen. Big sister's intention is of course the former. She wants Xia Xiao to face it as soon as possible, so that she can deal with Shangshan's matter when she returns to the academy. But Xia Xiao didn't know, so he cleverly avoided it with a joking tone and said:

"It's quite shiny, especially the hair, it's so shiny!"

Ah Zhu, who was only happy for a second, stepped on Xia Xiao's shoes, snorted and left. Seeing her like this, Xia Xiao was even a little happy, but he just had a headache.

When they were young, boys liked to play with other boys because it was fun. When they grew up, they liked the opposite sex. But Xia Xiao still thought that men were better, because men had fewer problems and they had no thoughts about him. It was difficult for him, a grown man, to be forced into such a complicated situation.

Xia Xiao thought of Shangshan's overbearing words, not allowing him to have contact with other women. Would he be mad at her for shopping with two extremely beautiful women? Thinking of her, Xia Xiao quickly stepped forward. She was just a female devil, nothing to think about.
