Chapter 326: Showing Off Innocence
The four people separated and played their own games.
Zhang Hailou and Hei Xiazi, who were a little more reliable, played while observing the local customs and culture. During this time, they also bought maps, various snacks and miscellaneous souvenirs.
Wuxie and Nan Xihe, two pure playful people, took their cameras and took pictures along the way.
The two people who were keen on taking photos happened to meet each other when they were walking near the Grand Palace of Thailand, and naturally they walked together.
Wuxie looked at the humanoid statues standing in front of the palace and felt that they were incredibly ugly, with a strange sense of disharmony. He really didn't understand the Thai people's aesthetic taste.
As he was thinking, Wuxie started to complain to Nan Xihe. Nan Xihe, who was used to all kinds of weird aesthetics, felt that the more abstract the art was, the more it could represent its profound culture.
Wuxie was shocked by his remarks. Just as she opened her mouth to refute him, Nan Xihe stopped her with the antique burial objects in the history textbooks.
Thinking of those antique artworks with very abstract shapes, Wuxie was actually choked and speechless for a moment.
After a long silence, the unconvinced Wuxie suddenly remembered that he was still wearing an old item on his body, which proved that the ancients' artistic aesthetics were still online.
Wuxie took out the Qilin jade token that Zhang Moyu had given him from his neck. He put his arm around Nan Xihe's shoulders, held his jade token between his fingertips, and placed it in front of the two of them for him to see.
The dark green jade texture sparkles with a unique luster in the sun, and the cute little Qilin carved on it is vivid and lifelike. Nan Xihe was attracted by this exquisite pendant at first sight.
"Brother Wuxie, your family is indeed in the antique business. This pendant is so beautiful. It looks like one of those treasures that has a lot of history and spirituality."
The more Nan Xihe looked at the pendant, the more she liked it. She had heard that people in the antique business would usually carry things that could truly ward off evil spirits.
If they encounter any bloody disaster, they will protect their master at the critical moment.
He wanted it too, but it looked very expensive and he couldn't afford it.
Wuxie cleared his throat, stood up straight, his expression shy yet somewhat complacent, and spoke casually.
"What? My family doesn't have such a good thing. Look at what I'm wearing on my hand. It was given to me by my family. They say it's for safety, but it's just old. It looks pretty but it's not very useful."
Wuxie showed off the vintage black jade tassel bracelet and two thin gold bracelets with small decorations on his wrist, pretending not to notice Nan Xihe's envious look and continued to show off.
"This imperial green jade pendant was given to me by Brother Mo. We first met when Brother Mo was fighting for justice and eliminating evil."
Wuxie recalled the scene when he hugged the other person's thigh and wanted to become his disciple when they first met, and he felt inexplicably emotional.
"At that time, Brother Mo saw at a glance that I had a special destiny and that my future life was destined to be extraordinary. He said he was worried that I would encounter danger in the future, so he gave me this jade amulet specifically to protect my life!"
Special fate = easy to attract evil spirits.
Destined to be extraordinary = very likely to encounter bad luck in the future.
Worrying that he might be in danger = worried that he might give the blue buff to the enemy goblins.
Wuxie silently interpreted it in his mind, and sighed for the Nth time that Brother Mo was such a good person. If only he could become more powerful, then others wouldn't have to worry about him all the time.
Nan Xihe certainly didn't know what Wuxie was thinking in his heart. He only heard what Wuxie meant on the surface.
Thinking about the group of people in the family who were obviously very powerful but refused to accept him as their apprentice, Nan Xihe's face fell instantly and he fell into emo.
Damn it, he used to think that someone like him, who lost both parents, was an orphan, was smart since childhood, had a little bit of a special physique, was later captured by an evil organization, and then rescued and adopted by a mysterious family, was the chosen one!
Why now, he felt that Wuxie was the one who had taken the template of the protagonist!!!
At the beginning, you meet the old man of the Mo Yu tribe who gives you a cheat, and then gives you a mysterious prophecy. After that, various dangers and opportunities come one after another. You have the protection of elders above you, the errands run by younger brothers below you, and the protection of brothers in the middle.
I fucking...
Nan Xihe was extremely envious and couldn't help but speak sourly.
"I am obviously a member of the Zhang family. Why did the clan elder give you such good things but never gave me anything?"
When he got back, he would report the elder to the clan leader, saying that the elder was betraying his family and that there were other dogs outside!
"Hey? Brother Mo never gave you anything?"
Wuxie spoke in surprise, his tone brisk, and his facial expression inexplicably gave off a feeling of wanting a beating.
This seemingly casual remark directly brought tons of harm to Nan Xihe.
Nan Xihe looked at Wuxie's expression silently, and another person wearing big black sunglasses and a smirk suddenly appeared in his mind.
He suddenly felt that Brother Wuxie had changed and become as despicable as Hei Xia Zi. He was obviously not like this before.
It turns out that after becoming Hei Xia Zi's disciple, he started to learn bad things from him!
"The elders of the Mo Yu clan are very busy and don't have time to take care of us young people one by one. Besides, I don't need anything. Life in the Zhang family is very good. Everyone in the family is talented and speaks well. I like the family very much!"
Nan Xihe, who had never received anything from the elders and clan leaders, was a little frustrated, but he still put on a slightly forced smile on his face, trying to save face in front of his friends.
"Oh~, really?"
Wuxie looked at Nan Xihe meaningfully, and thought it was really fun to tease the innocent boy. No wonder Hei Xia Zi and his third uncle liked to tease him so much in the past.
After being severely cheated by Uncle San several times and being taught a lesson by Hei Xia Zi, Wu Xie suddenly got their fun and spoke with a sense of evil.
"I suddenly remembered Hei Xia Zi's new knife. I think it was given by Brother Mo. And the butterfly knife that Xiao Hua often plays with is also a gift. Fatty also has a cookbook written by Brother Mo himself in his hand. Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."
Wuxie didn't mention Nan Xihe in these words, but Nan Xihe felt that every word he said was referring to her.
Nan Xihe felt that she was being treated differently and was a little aggrieved. She pouted unhappily and her eyes were a little red.
The little sun from before was now filled with sadness.
Wuxie had been admiring his jade pendant, but when he turned around and saw his friend with red eyes, he was instantly at a loss.
He swore! All those things before were really just jokes, and there was absolutely no intention of personal attack.
When he was learning from Hei Xia Zi, Hei Xia Zi teased him like this every day. He learned it subconsciously and it became a routine and he got used to it.
Later, he also got along with Fatty Wang in the same way. When Fatty Wang was verbally harassed, he would usually fight back directly. The atmosphere between the two was very lively, so he didn't take it seriously.
