Since Li Yu was stamped "Kinkoi" by the famous Zen Master Lekong before the Emperor, he is no longer an ordinary food carp. The rewards for the completed kinkoi branch line are constantly waving to him. Li Yu resisted the temptation. Although he is now nominally a member of the kinkoi family, he cannot immediately transform under the eyes of the emperor and Lekong. It was not until a few days after he returned to the palace with King Jing that King Jing's injuries were healed. Li Yu estimated that no one would pay attention to him anymore, so he picked a sunny day and sneaked into the system to receive the reward.
He had asked the system before, and this time the reward would also change his appearance. Li Yu looked forward to checking the reward, and found that the reward was mainly divided into two types. One was that the color of the fish scales could be chosen again, still in gold, red, green, silver and purple. The other was the good luck of being a koi. The pit fish system was very stingy and refused to give him all-round good luck. It was only willing to increase his luck in three random events.
In any case, something is better than nothing. Li Yu comforted himself that he was already very handy, thinking that having three things to increase his luck was better than not having anything, right?
Since it was randomly selected, he had no say in the matter. Li Yu still chose the color of the scales first, because he had chosen gold before, and actually golden scales grew on his dark base. Li Yu thought that this time he would definitely grow scales of other colors. He had been dreaming of a three-color mix for a long time, and this time he chose silver, wanting to make a cool koi.
After the color was selected, the fish body did not change in the system for the time being. Li Yu estimated that it would be the same as last time, and it would take effect after exiting the system, so he was not in a hurry. He checked the luck bonus again. Since he accepted the reward bonus, the result has come out, and the pit fish system has listed several things that have added luck to him one by one.
1. Slap the villain in the face, luck 10
2. Have enough food and clothing, luck 10
3. Hit the target with one shot, luck 20
Li Yu: "..."
The first two items are understandable, but there seems to be something strange in the latter, and it adds a lot.
Li Yu: What does "hit the target with one shot" mean?
The system said mysteriously: "This is a skill required for special tasks. The more bonuses, the easier it is to complete the task."
Li Yu: Why does it sound a bit weird... But since it is related to the task, I'd better accept it. I'll know when I use it in the future.
Li Yu received the reward and exited. The first thing he did was to look at the fish tail excitedly to see if it had grown silver scales.
This time, Li Yu was shocked. His fish tail, which was originally black with a streak of gold, turned into silver with a streak of gold.
Li Yu: "..."
He imagined a particularly cool mixed color!
Li Yu swallowed his saliva. Could it be that the color selection this time was not simply adding a color to the fish, but completely changing the base color? ?
Li Yu quickly jumped out of the fish tank, using his tail as a small skateboard, and slid to the bronze mirror in King Jing's room.
In the mirror, facing him, a silver fish jumped out. The silver-white scales looked like pearls from a distance, and the belly and tail were still mixed with gold.
Li Yu took a deep breath. He... turned from a black fish into a silver fish!
And not only the base color, his body became larger and longer, becoming closer to a koi, worthy of being the reward of the "becoming a koi" branch line. Now at first glance, he looks like a koi.
This change is even bigger than when he grew golden scales. Even if he was given a chance to be stamped, I wonder if King Jing can bear it.
But recalling that he did not choose black when choosing the color this time, it was destined that he would no longer have an ordinary background color.
Li Yu was a little worried about King Jing's reaction. He was afraid that the small black fish would disappear and a big silver fish would jump out. King Jing would not be able to accept it. After the change, he did not dare to swim around. He hid in the cave of the rockery, with most of his body not coming out, only the fish mouth showing, thinking that he would show King Jing a little bit when he came.
In this way, the impact would not be too great, right?
During this period, the eunuch came to feed him. It was the first time that Li Yu saw his favorite food, so he did not swim over happily.
Wang Xi was a little puzzled, but he followed the fish and used a jade ruyi again to put the fish food to the cave where the fish was hiding, so that the fish could take it easily.
Li Yu was hungry, so this was a great help to him. Wang Xi only saw the fish's mouth hidden in the dark flash quickly, and the fish food was gone. Wang Xi vaguely saw that the fish's head seemed to be shining.
Wang Xi walked away confused.
When it was King Jing's turn to come, King Jing himself had noticed that the little fish had been in the cave for quite a while.
The carp spirit, which was usually very lively, suddenly became motionless, as if it was cat-sick. King Jing reached his hand in directly to get the fish out.
However, his hand went in, but he couldn't get the fish out no matter what he did. King Jing: "..."
Li Yu: Oh, oh, oh, it's stuck again.
This fish had been stuck before, and King Jing guessed that the carp spirit must have changed in size again, so he immediately ordered his servants to move the rockery to rescue the trapped fish.
Finally, the rockery was moved away, and a fish with shining silver scales and pitiful eyes swam out.
King Jing: “…”
Li Yu was afraid that the tyrant monarch would not recognize him, so he quickly blew a bubble at King Jing in a flattering manner, and the tip of his tail, which had turned silver, hooked King Jing's finger hard.
King Jing suddenly found that the color of the fish had changed drastically. Even if he was mentally prepared, he still needed time to accept it.
Li Yu had no choice but to turn over his belly and show King Jing the golden scales on the fish's belly.
The fish was really still the same fish, but the base color had changed.
King Jing: “…”
King Jing finally recovered from the shock, raised his hand, hesitated for a moment, and poked the fish's belly.
Li Yu: Hey, this is for you to identify the fish, don't poke it randomly!
The silver fish rolled under his palm, and King Jing touched the smooth back of the fish again. Although the black color turned into silver, the feel was still the same, and the fish's reaction did not change. It was confirmed that it was a small fish.
The small carp turned twice in the water. Seeing that the tyrant master started to rub the fish again, Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, the doubts in his heart increased.
Why did King Jing accept it so quickly?
It was the same before. He grew golden scales and became a circle bigger. As the master, is King Jing too calm?
It seems that he can't find a suitable description except calm. Maybe this is the aura of the male protagonist? Think about it, if King Jing is like Ye Shizi, his jaw dropped in shock, it would also be a bit of a collapse of his character.
King Jing took the fish out of the water without any hesitation. He gestured and found that the fish had grown bigger and was now as long as his forearm.
At first, it was a small black fish as big as a palm, then two black goldfish as big as fists, and now it is a silver goldfish as long as an arm.
What will happen next?
King Jing found that every time this fish could surpass his imagination, and he was inexplicably looking forward to it.
Because this fish suddenly grew again, all kinds of tea cups and fish tanks must be unusable again. King Jing took the fish and walked a few steps quickly, first putting the fish into the large fish pond outside the house, while asking people to seize the time and take out the larger tea cups first.
The last time the fish grew bigger, King Jing considered this problem. It must be said that King Jing is a very far-sighted person. When he re-selected the tea cups, he even prepared several large circles in advance. Now he just needs to find them.
Li Yu soon got the red lotus tea cup that matched his new size.
King Jing also took the opportunity to knock on everyone in the mansion, including Wang Xi.
After being certain that the fish was a kinki, Kong was escorting the fish and the emperor's words, no matter how it changed now or in the future, it would only look more like a kinki.
And this change, at least one advantage is that it fully confirmed Kong's words. King Jing weighed the pros and cons and made some changes to the story of the small carp turning into a silver carp in the past three days, and reported it to the emperor.
It is impossible to tell the outside world that the fish has suddenly changed its color, so the original story of changing its scales is still used to make people more convinced.
King Jing took great pains to cover up the fish, but Li Yu, once accepted by King Jing, had nothing to worry about. The tyrant master would always protect him, and he also had inexplicable confidence in the tyrant master.
The Jinli branch has been successfully completed, and the next step is to focus on "revitalizing the family". This new main line has so far remained at the first step "Romance".
To do this step, he speculated that some wine should be needed. One day after Jinli's transformation, Li Yu took advantage of King Jing's absence and quickly turned into a human. He remembered that King Jing had been reading immortal books recently, so he hid all the immortal books in a place that was not easy to find on the bookshelf, and then went to find Wang Xi, hoping to get the wine as soon as possible.
"Eunuch Wang, where can I find wine in the mansion?" Li Yu took the initiative to find Wang Xi and asked politely and carefully.
He was carrying a box of gifts. You always have to be thoughtful when asking someone for help, especially in ancient times. Li Yu didn't know what he could give. Many of his things were given to him by King Jing, so he couldn't just give them out. After thinking about it, he picked out a few of his favorite snacks and put them in a box. He tied it with a red ribbon and tied a beautiful bow. Wang Xi smiled at him and he stuffed the gift box in his hand.
He wore a pearl white shirt this time. The collar and hem were embroidered with gold thread to form a continuous water wave pattern. The cuffs were inlaid with a circle of small jade beads as big as rice grains. The belt was a loose colorful silk sash, and he wore small white boots with silver patterns on his feet. King Jing would reward him with a few "old clothes" every now and then. Among them, he felt that this one was particularly similar to his current fish body. Not long after he got it, he set it as his new favorite and wore it everywhere to show off.
Master Li obviously didn't know much about the clothes he was wearing, but Wang Xi knew it very well. He found the best embroidery workshop in the imperial city to make them overnight according to King Jing's instructions, and then handed them to King Jing after washing.
His Highness didn't know what was wrong with him. Every time he said that the new clothes were old clothes, he would find ways to give them to Master Li, and Master Li didn't even notice.
But every time Master Li changed into a new style, his Highness would hide and secretly watch for a long time.
Wang Xi could feel that his Highness cared about Master Li very much, although the way he showed his care was incredible. Even he couldn't help but smile when looking at the young man in white in front of him. Young Master Li seldom went out of the house and didn't meet many people, but he was friendly to everyone and didn't have any airs.
Eunuch Wang pad the gift box in his hand. It was no wonder that His Highness would be interested in such a lovable boy.
"Why did you ask me about wine, do you want to drink?" Wang Xi asked with a smile.
Li Yu nodded. His real purpose was to complete the mission. Drinking was just a step. It was not wrong to say that he wanted to drink.
Wang Xi said, "Your Highness has ordered that we will do our best to do whatever Young Master Li wants. Please follow me."
Wang Xi carried the gift box and took Li Yu to the wine cellar.
Li Yu stared at the rows of wine jars in the Jingwang Mansion, his eyes wide open: "There are so many?"
Wang Xi smiled and said: "There are all kinds of wine sent by various mansions and those appreciated by the palace. What kind do you want, do you know the name of the wine?"
Li Yu blinked his eyes. The young master wanted something that could complete the task in a short time.
Li Yu was embarrassed and said: "I don't know. In addition to green plum wine, are there other wines that are not easy to get drunk?"
"Yes, there is a kind called Amber Light, which is brewed from grapes. Women and children can also drink some."
Wang Xi patiently introduced Li Yu and finally picked a small jar of "Amber Light" for Li Yu.
Li Yu excitedly carried the wine jar away. Wang Xi was loyal to Jingwang and turned around to report to Jingwang.
Xiaoyu asked for wine?
King Jing couldn't help but worry. As far as he knew, the carp spirit couldn't drink very well. In order to prevent the fish from changing its form randomly when drunk, King Jing decided to accompany the fish.
Wang Xi volunteered to lead the way for King Jing to find Master Li. After walking a few steps, King Jing's eyes fell on the gift box that Eunuch Wang was holding carefully.
King Jing: What is it?
Wang Xi: "..."
