Chu Shaoyao's face turned red after hearing her words, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
In his heart, he half-accepted the fact that she was a carp spirit.
Apart from these monsters, no other woman in the world would act so wildly and uninhibitedly! We've only known each other for less than a day, and already... she's already thinking about that!
Wen Liyu felt uncomfortable being held by him. She struggled to move and said delicately, "It hurts."
Chu Shaoyao's hand seemed to be touched by fire. He immediately let go of his hand, sat on the inside of the bed, and stared at her with a vigilant look.
"Don't you like it?" Wen Liyu felt a little strange.
The characters in the storybooks she had read before didn't seem like this?
The most common story in the novel is that a poor scholar saved a little fox, and the fox turned into a beautiful woman that night to find him, and from then on they lived a shameless life.
Is it possible for a fox spirit to work but not a carp spirit?
The blush on Chu Shaoyao's cheeks was about to fade away but it came back again. He had been living alone in this cold and terrifying cold palace since he was four years old. He had hardly seen many women, let alone had such close contact with them.
"You, be more reserved!"
Wen Liyu waited for a long time and only heard this. She was speechless. "Be reserved... Then when can we do it? You have to give me a definite answer! Otherwise, I will make a scene!"
Chu Shaoyao: "..." How can he give it to me?!
"We'll talk about it later." He cleared his throat. "Didn't you say you were going to turn back into your original form soon?"
Wen Liyu glanced at the system's time prompt and saw that there were more than 8 hours left.
Because the system can pause the transformation time, she plans to transform back into a fish when she sleeps, and then transform back into a human when she wakes up, so that the 50-point transformation ball can achieve the greatest efficiency.
"Someday, someday, it will happen first." Wen Liyu said in a low voice.
Chu Shaoyao had been taught martial arts by his mother's confidants since he was a child. Even when he was banished to the cold palace, there was a group of secret agents in the palace who secretly protected him and taught him to read and practice martial arts.
No matter how softly Wen Liyu spoke, he could still hear her.
"When will it change?" Chu Shaoyao pretended not to hear her shocking words and changed the subject.
"It will change soon." Wen Liyu straightened her clothes, "Remember to put me back in the barrel."
She paused and said, "I'm still a little hungry, but I don't know how to cook."
Chu Shaoyao was silent for a moment, turned his head to look at the sky, and soon his subordinates would bring him dinner.
"Is it okay to eat rice grains?" He had never raised a carp spirit, so his tone was a little hesitant.
When Wen Liyu heard that he meant to take good care of her, a smile immediately spread across her face. "That's fine. I'm not picky about food."
"Yeah." Chu Shaoyao was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he frowned in annoyance.
Damn it, he almost fell for this lecherous creature. What kind of magic was that just now? ...It must be some kind of charm technique. He needs to be more careful next time.
Wen Liyu didn't want to waste time transforming into a human tomorrow, so with a flash of white light, she turned back into a carp.
Chu Shaoyao was stunned for a long time when he saw this strange and bizarre scene. He looked at the carp flopping on the bed, his mind blank.
This... is actually true.
The little bit of doubt in his mind dissipated, and he was brought back to his senses by the increasingly loud flapping sound of the fish's tail.
It seems that fish cannot stay out of water for too long.
Chu Shaoyao got off the bed and looked at the carp whose flapping power was getting weaker and weaker, with an uncertain look in his dark eyes.
If he didn't put her back in the bucket, would she just die?
Wen Liyu was exhausted from struggling. She looked around in confusion and shouted, "Why don't you put me in the water? If you don't put me in, I'll turn back into a human and go back on my own!"
But Chu Shaoyao couldn't understand what the fish said. He could only see the palm-sized carp's mouth opening and closing, as if it was about to die from dehydration.
Wen Liyu's stunning face and graceful figure suddenly flashed through his mind.
"...Forget it, it's just a fish." Chu Shaoyao pursed his lips, picked her up from the bed with a cold face, and put her back in the bucket on the table.
As soon as the fish entered the water, it became very happy and swam up and down in the bucket.
Chu Shaoyao seemed to only guess that the fish was having fun in the water, but in fact, Wen Liyu was taking a bath, washing off all the sweat from Chu Shaoyao's hands that had just rubbed against her.
Chu Shaoyao took a few glances, then pushed the door and left the room, leaving her alone.
Wen Liyu poked her head out of the water out of boredom, looked at the dilapidated door, and was puzzled, "Why did he leave so suddenly?"
-
"Master." Outside the dilapidated courtyard, a eunuch with an old appearance and hoarse voice suddenly appeared on a dark and weed-covered path.
There was silence and no wind around, and invisible insects were playing unknown tunes in the grass.
The old man was carrying an ordinary lunch box in his hand, and the two of them usually had no topics to talk about except for necessary exchanges.
After handing over the lunch box, the old man wanted to leave, but was stopped by Chu Shaoyao, "Uncle Wang."
"Master, do you have any instructions?" A glimmer flashed in Wang Shan's turbid eyes, and he lowered his head respectfully and asked.
"...You've worked hard over the years." Chu Shaoyao originally wanted to tell him about the carp spirit, but then she changed her mind. People have a bad impression of spirits. What if Uncle Wang...killed her directly? Then...
He paused, seeing the doubt in Uncle Wang's eyes, and took out the jade pendant from his sleeve, "I found the token."
"This!" Uncle Wang looked up in surprise. Seeing the familiar jade pendant, his fingers trembled with excitement. "Congratulations, Your Highness!"
Chu Shaoyao put away the jade pendant, his face indifferent, "Well, the plan is advanced."
He exuded a dark aura, thick, oppressive, and cold. Facing this aura, Wang Shan became even more excited. Cold sweats of fear broke out on his body, but his expression and eyes were unusually bright. "Yes!"
The wind and rain outside had nothing to do with Wen Liyu. She was still entertaining herself in the water, jumping out of the bucket from time to time and overlooking the entire room from a high place.
Suddenly, she saw something shiny black on the beam out of the corner of her eye. After it fell into the water, she jumped up again with all her strength.
He jumped to the highest point, suddenly transformed into a human form, and reached out to easily grab the beam.
The beams made a slight creaking sound, unable to bear the weight.
"Oh, this house is not going to collapse, is it?" Wen Liyu climbed up the beam nimbly, straddled the main beam with her legs, and let them hang naturally, her legs swaying.
She waited for a while, but there was no other movement from the beams, so she walked confidently towards the place where she had just seen something.
The beams were not too far apart, and after getting used to the darkness of the roof, Wen Liyu was able to see clearly what was hanging on the beams.
It was a crossbow painted with brown-black dye, with a wooden bow and arrow tied to a small cloth bag on top.
She didn't touch the crossbow rashly, but just leaned over to take a closer look.
The crossbow is already in shooting condition. As long as the silk thread tied to the bowstring at the back breaks, the arrow will be shot out immediately.
