Come here and let me kiss you.
She explained calmly, "But other than that, I didn't do anything. Everything I said last night and this morning came from the bottom of my heart. I wanted to marry you out of my heart. As for you being like this today, I have never done anything to harm you. If that were the case, with my abilities, you wouldn't have survived the day we met. Of course, I now have an idea and know who caused you to become like this."
"How can I trust you?"
"I don't like lying."
This is the truth. Leng Can curled his lips, reluctantly believed her, and apologized awkwardly, "Then kiss my face."
Cong Mo leaned over and kissed him on the side of his cheek.
While waiting for him to come, Leng Can sweated profusely. His clothes were soaked with sweat, becoming almost transparent and sticking to his body, making him very uncomfortable. Cong Mo took a deep breath, stood up, grabbed his collar and pulled it apart, adding, "I'm sorry."
"Cong Mo, what are you doing?" Leng Can didn't even have the strength to resist. As soon as he raised his arm, she pushed him away. He could only watch with his eyes open and let her do what she wanted.
"Take off your clothes and wipe your body." Cong Mo looked straight and honest, and pulled off his underwear that was torn by the tail through the quilt, then wet a towel and wiped him from head to toe bit by bit.
"Xiao Mo, am I really ugly now?" The sticky feeling disappeared, Leng Can felt much more comfortable, and wanted to talk to her about other things.
Cong Mo shook his head and wiped his arm tirelessly, "No, yours is a rare species."
Leng Can: “…”
"That's not what I meant. I meant..."
"I don't hate it." Cong Mo tried to hold his tail and carry it on her shoulder, which almost made her fall down. From the inside to the end, the wet towel slid across the thick tail end little by little, bringing a different feeling. When she touched it, it could even cause a layer of vibration on the scales.
"Itchy, stop...hiss..." Leng Can groaned, and the numbness instantly spread throughout his body, and his expression showed some enjoyment.
The tail pressed down on Cong Mo's shoulders, causing her pain. She shook her hands and casually threw the tail back onto the couch. "What happened?"
How could Leng Can tell her? He shook his head vigorously, "No, nothing."
"Also..." He narrowed his eyes, feeling exhausted, "Don't touch other people's tails next time."
"Hmm? Oh." Cong Mo didn't understand the reason, but she wouldn't be willing to touch such a heavy and thick tail again.
When she saw Leng Can sleeping and Cong Mo guarding him, she knew that she knew everything.
"us……"
"I know." Cong Mo said anxiously, "Come quickly."
"I, I'll try." He quickly ran to the couch, took out the medicine box from his sleeve, pried open Leng Can's mouth, and stuffed the pill into his throat. The pill quickly melted in his mouth and flowed into his throat, taking effect. Leng Can's tail gradually recovered into legs, and the traces of scales on his body slowly disappeared.
But the high fever still persists.
Cong Mo looked at Yu suspiciously, "Why is he still running a fever?"
He laughed out loud twice, pretending to be profound and grabbing Leng Can's wrist. He put his fingers on it and pretended to feel his pulse, "Let me hear it."
The old man looked at him in embarrassment and spoke in mid-air, "He's in estrus, which was passively aroused. Although he's regained his human form, the high fever caused by estrus will probably continue for a while. While it won't affect his physical health, it will definitely cause him to be mentally depressed for a while. The thing that just affected him is probably Cnidium monnieri, a plant that can induce estrus in snakes. Ask Cong Mo who planted this plant nearby."
Pretending to be a famous teacher, he raised his hand, stroked his non-existent beard, and repeated the old man's words to Cong Mo word for word.
"The Taoist priest was the only one who came to my tent today. He also had doubts about Leng Can's identity. I will investigate this matter and seek justice."
As expected of a junior sister, she would never let them be bullied.
With a smug look on his face, he spoke well of Leng Can, "Master, Demon Master, thank you. My brother kept it a secret from you out of reluctance. In this world, humans and demons cannot coexist. He was afraid that you would dislike him, so he had no choice."
"I won't do that to him. It doesn't matter whether he's human or demon." Cong Mo showed regret. "I can't personally create an era of peace between humans and demons, but demons have longer lifespans than humans. I hope you can see the arrival of that world."
"Yes."
Cong Mo nodded, took a moment to react, and then asked, "By the way, Master Li, may I ask, what kind of demon are you?"
Do you still know how to be presumptuous?
He scratched his head, never feeling so embarrassed to speak, "Duck, duck."
"Oh..." Cong Mo pretended to be deep, "It is indeed somewhat similar."
Cang: "..."
Gah…
Seeing Leng Can slowly waking up, Cong Mo immediately ordered a sedan chair to take them back to the mansion, "Don't come to the military camp to look for me recently."
Leng Can knew the reason, but he still couldn't stop feeling sad.
In the present world, Cong Mo practices the ruthless way, and the two of them will never be able to be together. Here, he is a demon and Cong Mo is a human. They are on different paths and cannot accompany each other for the rest of their lives.
Back and forth, he didn't know who to blame.
His cheeks flushed, he was wearing ill-fitting clothes, and he was pulling a large robe to wrap his body. He couldn't bear to look at her, "Then you..."
"I will return home on time." Cong Mo promised him, "Or even earlier. Don't worry. Let the curtains down. You're too hot and will catch a cold."
Leng Can blinked away a tear, which Cong Mo wiped away with her hand. Her eyes were filled with tenderness. "No matter who you are, no matter how different your path is, I will do everything I can to be with you."
Leng Can bit his lips, tears falling down his face, looking away without saying a word.
Cong Mo smiled helplessly, not caring that they were at the entrance of the military camp, and raised his hand to hold the back of his neck, "Come here."
"Let me kiss you."
Leng Can could no longer hold back his voice, so he put his arms around the back of her head and kissed her lips.
The lips and tongue met, and the bitter tears were swallowed into the mouth, and the salty taste melted on the tip of the tongue.
"Wait until I get home."
"Hurry up."
Knowing what this separation meant, he did not try to dissuade the two of them. Instead, he wiped Leng Can's tears thoughtfully, "Junior brother, don't cry. This is just an illusion."
"But that's the real Cong Mo, I know it." Leng Can sobbed, "Why is it that I am a demon and she is a human? I can't get what I want no matter where I am."
Yi patted his back and said, "Didn't Junior Sister make a promise? You have to believe her. Junior Sister always keeps her word."
The old man looked at the two of them cuddling together, sighed, and also said nothing.
After seeing them off, Cong Mo prepared his sword and immediately rode his horse to the Taoist temple.
"Where is your Taoist priest?" Cong Mo threw the horse rope to the young Taoist priest sweeping the floor at the door and rushed in without any courtesy.
The young Taoist calmed the horse and said, "I'm in the main temple, waiting for you."
"good."
Cong Mo quickly walked to the inner room and kicked the door open with a "bang". He saw the Taoist priest was calm and composed, as if he didn't hear anything. He knelt in front of the Buddha statue and chanted Buddhist scriptures.
Cong Mo sat on a wooden chair beside him, poured two cups of tea, took out a small bag of medicinal powder from his sleeve, and poured half into each cup.
The Taoist priest quickly finished his chanting, bowed to the Buddha, and then slowly stood up. "You are too hasty. You are so rude to the Buddha."
Cong Mo crossed his legs with an arrogant attitude, "If a person who kills lives relies on chanting Buddha's name to save himself, then he has lost his original intention."
"Heh..." The Taoist priest didn't want to argue with her. In his eyes, Cong Mo was just a rough man who could only kill monsters. "I knew you would come looking for me, but now you've found out the truth and realized you've been deceived."
"What are you talking about, Taoist priest?" Cong Mo frowned, feigning confusion. "I came here to ask you about my pet's estrus. You know demons, so you can naturally help me. Could it be that you are the one who did this?"
She stretched out her palm, and a small green snake crawled out from her sleeve and crawled into her palm, rubbing its head against her fingers like a spoiled child. "The little snake is in heat and is extremely dependent on me now, but snakes are rare. Where can I find a male snake for it? That's why I urgently want to ask the Taoist priest to take a look at it."
"Thinking back to what the Taoist priest said just now, I really shouldn't have concealed the fact that I have a pet. However, what the Taoist priest said is really different from what I have. I can't even tell the difference between male and female."
The Taoist priest's mouth twitched, "Don't lie, this is not the snake I know of."
He raised his hand and pointed at her, "The man who came looking for you recently is a giant snake. I advise you to hand him over to me as soon as possible. Demons can confuse people, and it seems that you have been deceived now."
"What are you talking about, Taoist priest? That's my soon-to-be husband. We've known each other since childhood and grew up together. How could he be a demon?" Cong Mo curled his lips slightly, stood up, and looked at him intently. "Even if he is a demon, catching demons is my duty. Why would I hand him over to you, Taoist priest? Could it be that you have some selfish motive?"
The Taoist priest looked flustered. "You, stop talking nonsense! I..."
"I was just guessing, but your behavior seems to confirm what I said."
“You, you…”
"What about me?" Cong Mo grabbed his wrist, twisted it downwards, and with the Taoist priest's scream, the snake in Cong Mo's hand also launched an attack, hissing and leaping forward.
The snake's bright red tongue shot out, just a hair's breadth away, and went straight into his eyes.
Cong Mo lowered his voice, "Master, my snake is in heat and its temper is hard to control. If it hurts your eyes, it has nothing to do with me. After all, you made the medicine, didn't you?"
The Taoist priest was breathing heavily, sweating profusely, and trembling with fear. Cong Mo held his wrist tightly, making him unable to move. He hurriedly explained, "I misunderstood. It was all my imagination. What happened today was my impulse. There was no demon at all. It was all my misunderstanding. Please don't let this hurt our feelings. Is that what the demon master said?"
"So what happened today was done by the Taoist priest?"
"It was an impulsive act, an impulsive act. I'm probably worried about the Demon Master."
"Thank you so much, Taoist priest." Cong Mo let go of him. The Taoist priest held his arm and stepped back, shaking with pain.
