"Thanks!"
Lu Yuguan said readily.
Qi Wei looked at him with a smile, his mouth curled up, revealing two fangs.
Li Chonglin stood aside and watched with malicious eyes.
After lunch, Miao'er came to Bai's house and said that the emperor summoned Li Chonglin back to the palace to discuss matters.
"Yuguan, please be patient. I will come back tomorrow."
Li Chonglin touched his head gently.
"I know!" Lu Yuguan pried his hand away, "I'm not a child."
As soon as Li Chonglin left, the wing room became empty.
Qi Wei held two chess pieces in a bamboo basket and asked, "Since we have nothing to do, why don't we play a couple of games?"
"Never……"
Lu Yuguan was very upset.
The day before yesterday, Li Chonglin had already lost completely when he played chess with him.
If it's Gobang, Lu Yuguan can give it a try, but as for Go, forget it.
There is still some self-knowledge.
The Holy Son of Xuanyu Sect is playing chess with me... I don't know how many tricks he will have to use.
"Are you scared?" Qi Wei said with a playful smile, "I'll let you have your third child first."
"Get out of here! I won't even play with you even if I have half a basket of chess pieces."
Lu Yuguan refused sternly.
"Oh... so boring."
Qi Wei threw the chess piece back into the bamboo basket, yawned, and leaned against the beam in a daze.
Lu Yuguan was speechless: "Why don't we go for a walk on the street?"
Qi Wei: "It's boring."
Lu Yuguan said disdainfully, "Tsk... you're so hard to please."
Hearing this, Qi Wei became interested instead. He flew over and squatted next to Lu Yuguan, staring at him with his ice-blue pupils.
"You... what are you doing?"
Lu Yuguan said embarrassedly.
"This Saint Son is not a spoiled child. He is easy to serve," Qi Wei said with a smile, "Junior brother, do you want to give it a try?"
"I'll try you!"
"You don't have to do it, I'll do it myself..."
"You rascal!"
[Ding! Detected host swearing]
[Deduct 1 civilization points]
Qi Wei was delighted: "No wonder that guy likes you so much...it's really fun."
Lu Yuguan was very upset.
"Hey, what's fun?"
"You're giving me a chance to reframe my words. Watch out, or I'll smack you in the face with my fish tail!"
Qi Wei licked his lips: "That was very enjoyable."
The corner of Lu Yuguan's mouth twitched, "How did the Xuanyu Sect cultivate someone as shameless as you?"
"You're too kind. They're usually self-taught."
Qi Wei said with a smile.
Lu Yuguan: “…”
Ah shit.
Please, some kind soul please take Qi Wei in!
Lu Yuguan couldn't win the argument, so he simply turned his back and ignored him.
Qi Wei shamelessly approached: "Why...are you shy?"
"Shame on you!——"
Lu Yuguan swung his fish tail violently and rolled Qi Wei directly into the pool.
Wow!
Qi Wei struggled in the water for a few times before he managed to steady himself.
He wiped the water off his face, and his wet hair stuck to his cheeks in strands. He looked disheveled, but his rogue spirit remained unchanged.
"Yo, you want to murder the Son?"
Lu Yuguan was so angry that his cheeks puffed up and his scales seemed to be about to burst. "How can you become the Holy Son with such a dissolute look on your face!?"
Qi Wei swam leisurely to the edge of the pool, supported his chin with one hand, and smiled with his head tilted.
"Of course, it's all thanks to the kindness of my fellow apprentices."
As he spoke, he reached out and gently poked Lu Yuguan's fish tail.
The touch was cold and smooth, which made Lu Yuguan shudder and almost hit him with his tail again.
"If you touch me again, I won't be polite!"
Lu Yuguan glared angrily, but although there was a flicker in his eyes, there was no real deterrent power.
Seeing this, Qi Wei smiled even more.
Just as he was about to make a few more jokes, he heard Daiyu's voice at the door.
"Sir Saint, the eldest lady wants to talk to you. Please move over."
Qi Wei shouted, "Miss, please give me a clean cloth. Your young master is really struggling."
Lu Yuguan punched him on the back.
Daiyu covered her mouth and chuckled, responded, and after a moment she brought in a clean cloth and handed it to Qi Wei.
Qi Wei took it, wiped his face and hair casually, and regained some of his usual carefree and unrestrained appearance.
He stood up and winked at Lu Yuguan, "Wait for me, I'll come back to play with you."
After saying that, he followed Daiyu out.
Lu Yuguan cursed: "Who cares!"
But after he left for a while, he felt that the room was too quiet.
Without Li Chonglin and Qi Wei, Lu Yuguan felt a little uncomfortable.
He swung his tail out of boredom, splashing a few small water droplets, and his eyes wandered around the pool that was so familiar to him.
Suddenly, a Qiankun cloth bag embroidered with crane patterns came into view.
"This is……"
"The medicine bag that Qi Wei dropped?"
Lu Yuguan took the Qiankun cloth bag in his hand and looked at it over and over again.
The bag is tied with an exquisite silver rope, and the crane pattern embroidered with exquisite craftsmanship looks as if it can spread its wings and fly away in the next second.
He gently pulled the silver string, and the bag opened, revealing several round pills inside.
It was the transformation pill that Qi Wei gave him the day before yesterday.
"Wow, there are so many hidden ones!"
Lu Yuguan sneered and picked up two of them and put them in his mouth.
"Cough cough cough..."
"Ugh, it's so big... I almost choked to death."
Lu Yuguan took two gulps of bath water before swallowing the pill.
Humph, Qi Wei, ah Qi Wei...
These two pills will be considered as your accommodation fee in Bai Mansion!
……
White House.
The first wife's room.
The room was filled with calming incense. As Qi Wei stepped over the threshold, she saw the celadon vase on the table. The wintersweet flower inserted diagonally into the mouth of the vase covered half of her face.
"Son, please take a seat."
The eldest wife pushed the teacup over, and the sky-blue glazed wall of the cup reflected the fine lines at the corners of her eyes.
"Madam, you are so polite. I wonder why you called me here?"
Qi Wei asked.
The eldest wife sighed and said, "I'm just chatting with the Holy Son for a few minutes. Please don't be disgusted."
Qi Wei smiled: "No."
The eldest wife paused and continued, "Yuguan has a miserable life. He has been wandering around with Luhua since he was little. He only returned to his ancestral home last year..."
Qi Wei stroked the rim of the cup with his fingertips and asked casually, "That Lady Luhua..."
"No, ma'am."
The eldest wife suddenly raised her voice, and the jade bracelet on her wrist made a crisp sound when it hit the nanmu table.
"When Bai Zheng was traveling in the Western Regions and was in danger, it was Miss Luhua who saved him."
"After the two came back, Bai Ming's mother was very dissatisfied."
"Luhua left after less than two years. I only found out later that she was pregnant."
She twirled her Buddhist beads and sighed, "Anyway... the child is innocent."
A few snowflakes drifted in from outside the window.
Qi Wei looked at the flickering candlelight in front of the Buddhist shrine, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the ceramic plate in the corner of the altar.
On the dark red body, a koi carp is breaking through the ink-colored wave pattern, and there are still traces of cinnabar dots on the fish tail.
"The plate is quite unique."
"You mean this?" The eldest wife's eyes softened. "The reed flowers were given to me before I left. They're said to bring good luck."
She suddenly lowered her voice and said, "It's strange. It was clearly the hottest day of summer, but this plate was as cold as ice in the room."
The bone bell in Qi Wei's sleeve suddenly vibrated.
He pretended to straighten his clothes and quietly suppressed the restless magic weapon.
The Koi Fairy of Zhongdu Luzhou is best at magic arts such as creation and healing.
Besides, with Lu Yuguan's eyebrows...
Very similar.
"Son?"
"Just now we were talking about taking care of Yuguan..."
Qi Wei picked up the cold tea and drank it all in one gulp, swallowing all the storms with a rolling Adam's apple.
"Don't worry, I'm here and I won't let him suffer."
The sounds of other juniors arguing could be heard from the corridor.
The eldest wife stood up to check, and Qi Wei took the opportunity to use the power of mist spirit to copy the pattern of the pottery plate.
As he passed through the moon-shaped gate, he looked at the ice-blue fish tails splashing in the pool and chuckled.
"Little Koi, the secret of you..."
"It's much more interesting than the mermaid pearl."
