Chapter 39 39 "Just call you Fu Demo."
Su Xiaoyuan began to feel guilty almost as soon as she said this.
Seeing the puppet's submissive look, she almost regretted it.
Fortunately, Ruan Mianmian's voice came from outside the window at this time: "Hey, Xiao Yuanzi, your puppet is steaming buns today, and the aroma has drifted to me..."
"It's just out of the cage. I was just about to send you a message." Su Xiaoyuan got up, took the plate and bowl and chopsticks, and served her the buns.
Perhaps due to programming reasons, her puppets do all the work for her, but never serve anyone other than her, not even her best friend.
Su Xiaoyuan found it difficult to treat him as a house-elf, and did not ask him to do any extra work.
So when Ruan Mianmian comes over, she will still entertain him herself.
Fortunately, the puppet would make enough food for the two of them without her reminder.
As soon as Ruan Mianmian arrived, the puppet went to the yard to wait so as not to disturb their best friends from chatting.
Ruan Mianmian took two bites of each bun and tasted all four fillings. "Your puppet is really amazing! Just for this skill, even if there is an evil curse, it's worth it."
Su Xiaoyuan quickly said, "There's no evil curse. I checked with Sister Jiang yesterday."
"I know. You told me yesterday... Hey..." Ruan Mianmian noticed the marks on her neck. "What is this... Oh my..."
"It was a mosquito bite!" Su Xiaoyuan blushed.
"What mosquito? Those little things can bite people? I've never heard of that before."
Su Xiaoyuan: "..." Okay, I forgot that the eldest daughter of the Xie family is also a Tianlong person who has reached the Jindan stage.
After a cultivator has established his foundation, mosquitoes can no longer bite him.
Su Xiaoyuan's resentment towards the system reached its peak at this moment - the system directly copied her physical data in reality and projected it into this world, only to make slight adjustments to adapt to the worldview. The limited resources were used on the beauty filter, resulting in her physical fitness being almost the same as that of ordinary people, her spiritual roots and spiritual veins being negligible, and barely reaching the minimum threshold for admission to the Yunyu Sect.
Because no matter whether he can sleep with Immortal Master Ling Yue or not, this body will soon be scrapped.
When she first came here, she was ambitious for a while and wanted to find another way out through hard training, but she soon found that it was all in vain - in this world, the gap in talent is absolute and unshakable, and it is the foundation of all efforts.
If she didn't rely on others and worked hard on her own, even if she practiced non-stop for 24 hours a day, it would still take her ten years to build her foundation.
"Don't lie to me, Xiao Yuanzi," my best friend said. "I'm from the Yunyu Sect anyway. How could I not recognize what this is? Besides, why are you blushing over a mosquito bite?"
Ruan Mianmian lowered her voice, "Senior Brother Xiahou came to the Gu Shu class to look for you yesterday. Did he go to the city with you? Did you two... huh?"
"How is that possible! Of course not!" Su Xiaoyuan's heart was pounding, and she subconsciously looked out the window, looking for the familiar figure.
The puppet was seen concentrating on cleaning the stove and seemed not to hear their conversation.
Fortunately, fortunately...
Su Xiaoyuan was stunned. What was she saying? Why was she feeling guilty? Why was she subconsciously afraid of the puppet hearing her?
Even if there was something going on between her and Senior Brother Xiahou, why should she care about the puppet's thoughts?
Wait, the puppet has no idea at all!
Su Xiaoyuan was afraid that her best friend would say something shocking again, so she quickly stuffed another bun into her mouth: "Eat quickly, we're going to be late for class."
Ruan Mianmian: "You're not bringing your puppet? Today is the review of the exercises, so bringing your puppet will make it easier to teach you the moves, right?"
Needless to say, Su Xiaoyuan hadn't figured out what the Yunyu Sect's skills were. Her mind was in a mess and she didn't want to add to the confusion.
"You can still learn even without a puppet... It's okay, just take more notes."
Anyway, she is very skilled at drawing stick figures.
Ruan Mianmian didn't insist any longer and walked out with her bestie while chewing on a bun: "By the way, how's your 'ear-to-ear rubbing' practice going?"
Su Xiaoyuan felt as if she was being pricked by a thorn, and subconsciously turned back to look at the puppet. The puppet was just busy tidying up the steamer without even raising his eyelids.
Was it an illusion? Why did I feel like someone was staring at my back just now?
Su Xiaoyuan touched the back of her neck: "I passed..."
"Already passed?!" Ruan Mianmian was surprised. "How did you pass? How many times did you pass?"
"Once..." Su Xiaoyuan felt a little embarrassed. Her best friend had agreed that they would be poor students together for the rest of their lives, but she became the traitor.
Ruan Mianmian didn't think too much about it: "Xiao Yuanzi, you are so amazing, have you finally gotten the hang of it? Teach me!"
"I don't know if I can teach you... I think I just took a chance last time... Let's go to your place after school and study it together..."
Su Xiaoyuan didn't want to go back too early and stare at the puppet, so she immediately sent a message to Fu Tingyun: "I'm going to Kaishan after school. You don't have to prepare dinner, Fu Tingyun."
The puppet replied with an "OK" and then disconnected the communication.
Su Xiaoyuan touched her ear, as if it had been stimulated by ice just now.
She was still a little absent-minded during class, and from time to time she took out a small mirror to steal a peek at the marks on her neck.
Half a day had passed, and the red marks showed no signs of fading.
The day was packed with classes and it was dusk after school. The two went to the cafeteria to have a quick bite, and it was dark when they returned to Ruan Mianmian's residence.
Her puppet was tending to his cabbage patch in the yard. Seeing Ruan Mianmian, he immediately stood up and saluted seductively, "This slave respectfully welcomes the master back home."
Then he said to Su Xiaoyuan, "I have met Fairy Su."
Every time Su Xiaoyuan saw this puppet, she always felt inexplicably itchy.
But this is my best friend's aesthetic taste, and I can only respect it.
Ruan Mianmian threw a few purification spells at the puppet, called him back into the house, and began to overcome the difficulties.
Technical instructor Su Xiaoyuan looked at the Song Jinshu puppet, feeling a bit lost. She scratched her elbow and said to her bestie, "How about you practice with it first and let me see?"
Ruan Mianmian opened the panel openly, selected "ear-to-ear rubbing", and then performed it according to her understanding.
A mechanical voice emanated from the puppet's body, sounding rather mean: "Level 5, D-class. I'm sorry, you failed the 'ear rubbing' test. Ear rubbing is not an ear disease, and rubbing is not a permanent rubbing. Please keep trying."
"Look, look, we've practiced this many times and it's always like this," Ruan Mianmian complained. "Every time, the little words are different. I heard that this formation was invented by the sect master. Why does our sect master have so much free time?"
Su Xiaoyuan has been a sect member for so long and has only seen the sect leader from afar during the initiation ceremony. Usually, she lives in seclusion on a small flying island far away from the sect's islands, being a happy technology geek.
"Are you moving too hard?" she offered inadvertent instructions. "It lacks a bit of tenderness and affection. How about trying a little more gently?"
Ruan Mianmian tried again, but still got the same result.
"This time it's as light as it can be, why is it still not working?" She was a little discouraged.
"Maybe it's too light?" Su Xiaoyuan was also confused. "If it's not light, then it's not focused? And the angle of the neck may need to be adjusted..."
Ruan Mianmian tried several more times, and her best score was Grade C Level 7, which was still a long way from passing.
She touched the red side of her face and said, "A layer of skin has been rubbed off. If I rub it any further, it will bleed. Xiao Yuanzi, how about you show me how to do it?"
Su Xiaoyuan's heart trembled: "This is not good..."
"What's the big deal? He's just a puppet anyway," Ruan Mianmian said nonchalantly, "What's mine is yours."
Su Xiaoyuan was stunned for a moment.
Is this how a normal person treats a puppet?
But she had never thought of sharing her puppet with her best friend. Not to mention such a private practice, she was unwilling to lend it out even for doing some odd jobs.
Why? If Kaishan wanted to borrow her robot vacuum cleaner, she would definitely not hesitate.
Why not puppets?
Or, why can't this puppet do this?
"Xiao Yuanzi," Ruan Mianmian raised her hand and waved it in front of her eyes, "Why are you still in a daze?"
Su Xiaoyuan came back to her senses: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm just a little sleepy. I'm not used to using other puppets, so I might not be able to do it well..."
Ruan Mianmian: "That's easy. Call your puppet over, or I'll go to your place..."
How could Su Xiaoyuan dare to do that? Not only would she be socially disgraced if she did that in front of others, Kaishan would definitely notice that something was wrong with her.
"I'll be embarrassed if you look at me. I'm sure you won't perform well..."
Ruan Mianmian knew that she was thin-skinned, so she didn't think it was strange: "Then rub it on my face, let me feel it."
This is the only way.
Su Xiaoyuan recalled the scene she had gone through, asked Ruan Mianmian to sit in front of the window with her back to her, reviewed the movements in her mind, took a deep breath, and lowered her head.
Just as she was about to demonstrate, Ruan Mianmian suddenly jumped up and screamed.
Su Xiaoyuan was hit on the chin by the head of a Jindan stage cultivator. The pain was so severe that she saw stars and burst into tears.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Yuanzi, I didn't mean it, ahhhh your cat your cat-"
Ruan Mianmian screamed and hugged Su Xiaoyuan tightly, crying loudly.
Su Xiaoyuan didn't understand what was so scary about her cat. When she looked out the window, she understood why her best friend was so scared.
I saw the flat-faced tabby standing on the windowsill, holding a small white snake not much thicker than a finger in its mouth.
Su Xiaoyuan is also afraid of snakes, although not as extreme as Ruan Mianmian, but she also feels a chill on her back and has goose bumps on her arms.
"Don't be afraid of Kaishan... It's outside the window. I... I... I close the window so it can't get in..."
She forced herself to comfort her best friend while mustering up the courage to reach out and close the window.
In the blink of an eye, Fu Shenxing glanced at the evil green eyes, and suddenly shook his head. The little white snake flew in from the window with a "whoosh" and fell to the ground with a "pa".
The little snake twisted its body, raised its head, and spit out its thin tongue. Its whole body was crystal white, and it had a pair of emerald-like eyes, with a beauty that made people tremble.
But no matter how beautiful it is, it is still a snake.
Su Xiaoyuan immediately joined her bestie and ran around the room screaming.
"Puppet!" Ruan Mianmian suddenly had an idea. "Song Jinshu! Quick, quick! Get him out and lock the door!"
"Yes, master!" The puppet jumped out of the door and locked it in the blink of an eye.
The two best friends were stunned and screamed together.
"Song Jinshu! You idiot!" Ruan Mianmian scolded, "I told you to get the snake out, why did you go out on your own?! And you locked the door!"
The puppet's head popped in from the window: "The master ordered 'Go out and lock the door', I was just following orders..."
Ruan Mianmian didn't even have the energy to curse: "Open the door quickly! Get the snake out!"
"Forgive me for not obeying your order, Master," Song Jinshu said with difficulty, "I don't have the key."
Ruan Mianmian: "The key... the key is on the plate on the table..."
But there was a snake between the table and them.
Su Xiaoyuan tried to go around the snake, but as soon as she took a step, the snake flew into the air.
Only then did they notice that the snake had a pair of translucent wings, which stuck to its body and were not easily visible when folded.
"Oh my god, what the hell is this!" Ruan Mianmian wailed. "Song Jinshu, forget about the keys, just bang on the door!"
"As you command, Master, I will hit you right away..."
There was a loud "bang" and the door didn't move at all, but Song Jinshu's puppet cried out "Ouch, ouch".
Ruan Mianmian roared, "Waste! Song Jinshu, you waste!"
A light flashed through Su Xiaoyuan's mind. Before she could think about it, her body had already reacted instinctively. She shouted towards the window: "Fu Tingyun - Fu Tingyun - help Fu Tingyun -"
She shouted twice before she remembered that she could send a message to the puppet.
However, before she could open the mechanism on the ring, she caught a glimpse of a figure outside the window.
Fu Tingyun changed into a white dress with fluttering sleeves as he walked in the moonlight in the courtyard, looking like a fairy from the moon descending to earth.
The door lock made a light "click" sound, and the puppet in white pushed the door open and glanced at Su Xiaoyuan who was huddled in the corner with her best friend.
"What's wrong?" he asked coldly.
"Snake...Fu Tingyun, there is a snake..." Su Xiaoyuan's eyes were filled with tears.
Fu Tingyun glanced at the little white snake flapping its wings and wagging its tail as it circled around the room: "It's not a snake, it's a feathered dragon. Look, it has horns on its head."
Su Xiaoyuan didn't dare to look closely. Besides, no matter what it was called, it wouldn't make her less scared!
"Get it out of here, Fu Tingyun..."
"This is a very tonic thing. You can use it to make soup." The puppet said quietly.
Su Xiaoyuan:!!!
"No, no, no," Su Xiaoyuan said horrifiedly, "Quickly get it out, Fu Tingyun, just release it. Don't hurt it, keep it away..."
Fu Tingyun walked forward, raised his hand and pinched the little snake's seven inches. The little snake shuddered, folded its wings, and coiled its tail around his wrist like a gorgeous bracelet.
It actually matches this fairy-like white dress very well.
"This feathered dragon has just hatched," Fu Tingyun looked into the pair of gem-like green eyes, his tone cold and indifferent, "If we release it, it will soon be eaten by the nearby birds. It's better to nourish you."
"Ah? Is it still a baby?" Su Xiaoyuan certainly couldn't eat a snake, but she couldn't bear to let such a beautiful baby snake be eaten.
"How big does it have to be to prevent it from being eaten?" She hesitated. "Or maybe I should raise it a little bigger..."
Fu Tingyun said: "In a year or two, you can protect yourself."
Ruan Mianmian grabbed her bestie's shoulders and shook her hard: "Xiao Yuanzi, wake up! That's a snake! You don't want to keep it, do you?!"
Su Xiaoyuan: "It's a dragon, not a snake. Look, it has horns on its head... And don't you think its scales and eyes are beautiful? It's not that scary after seeing it more often..."
Ruan Mianmian looked at her in horror: "Xiao Yuanzi, you can't let lust blind you!"
"Kaishan, you're shaking me a little bit," Su Xiaoyuan said with a confused look in her eyes, "Let me go back and think about it..."
It was certain that they would not be able to "rub ears together", so Su Xiaoyuan and the puppet returned to their own yard.
"Should we release it or keep it?" Fu Tingyun asked.
Su Xiaoyuan was in a dilemma. If she let him go, it would be no different from killing the little guy with her own hands.
But if she raised it... not only did Kaishan not dare to come to her house, she herself was afraid too.
"If I want to raise it, where should I raise it?" Su Xiaoyuan hesitated.
"The feathered dragon is intelligent and docile. You can keep it in a water tank during the day and release it at night to feed on flying insects."
"It eats flying insects? What about mosquitoes?"
Fu Tingyun loosened his fingers that were pinching the snake's seven-inch wrist, and the little snake immediately left his wrist and flew into the air. It spit out its tongue and rolled a mosquito into its mouth.
It flew around the yard and swallowed more than a dozen mosquitoes in the blink of an eye.
Su Xiaoyuan made a prompt decision: "Raise him!"
Since there was no suitable water tank at the moment, Su Xiaoyuan asked the puppet to move her old bathtub out and filled half of it with clean water made from spiritual power as a nest for the little snake.
The little snake seemed to like water very much and swam around in circles in the basin comfortably.
I don’t know if it’s because it was put into the water, but Su Xiaoyuan felt that it looked like a white eel and was not so scary.
Even saw a little cuteness.
She squatted beside the basin and watched for a while, even boldly reaching out and poking the horn on its head: "I'll give you a name too..."
Since it was captured by Fu Shenxing, let’s give it the surname Fu.
Su Xiaoyuan didn't know any more people with the surname Fu. After thinking hard for a long time, she finally used the homophonic name: "I'll just call you Fu Dimo."
Fu Tingyun: "Demon?"
Su Xiaoyuan: "It's not that demon..."
Fu Tingyun: "Well, a humble name is easier to maintain."
After a pause, he said, "Go in."
Su Xiaoyuan was a little worried: "Would Fu Shenxing eat it in the middle of the night?"
Fu Tingyun: "No, cats don't eat this kind of thing."
Su Xiaoyuan was still a little worried: "If they don't eat it, they might just play with it. Just now..."
Fu Tingyun: "It doesn't matter if it's in the water. It's smart and will hide."
That’s right, Fu Shenxing is afraid of water like most kittens.
She was a little tired of squatting, so she stood up and went into the house with the puppet.
Soon, a pair of ghostly green eyes appeared on the wall.
Luoluo Beast paced a few steps along the wall, nimbly landed in the yard, walked silently to the wooden basin, squatted down, and looked at the little white snake in the basin with a gloating look: "Meow meow meow meow meow..." (Weren't you very proud when I was arrested? Didn't you even congratulate me on my new home? Why aren't you smiling now? It's only been a few days, and you've moved too!)
Snake: "Hiss hiss hiss..." (Isn't this great? With such pure spiritual energy nourishing me every day, I will soon be able to transform into a dragon. But you, what's the point of being a dog every day?)
Cat: "Meow meow meow meow meow..." (I mean, act like a cat! Act like a cat! Not a dog! I don't seek anything else, I just want to be free and do as I please... Is it glorious for a thousand-year-old dragon to catch mosquitoes for others?)
A young girl's voice came from the room: "Fu Shenxing, is that you? You must get along well with Fu Demo. The baby snake is still young, you can't bully him!"
Fu Shenxing unconsciously responded with a squeezed voice: "Meow——"
Snake: "Ssssssssss..." (Hahahahahahahaha!)
Unable to bear it any longer, Rolomon slammed a claw into the water and quickly flung the snake out: "Meow!"
The snake refused to give in and bit its claw: "Hiss!"
A snake and a cat started fighting.
Su Xiaoyuan heard strange noises in the house, pushed the door open, and saw the snake being stepped on by the cat. It was twisting slowly and dying, and its beautiful scales were covered with dirt.
She exclaimed, "Fu Shenxing, what are you doing! Let go of the little demon!"
Luoluomon was flexible and made a weak "meow" sound, then stretched out its tongue and licked the snake's head lovingly.
Snake: "Hah!"
