Mu Yunjin laid in her room, raised her legs, and put her hands under her head. She is full of curiosity about the s.p.a.ce release master.
Is he really dead?
Why does she feel that he is still a being in this world? If this s.p.a.ce release master is still alive, he must be a very interesting person.
Such a thought, Mu Yunjin unavoidably felt some regret.
Not long after lying down, there came a knock from the outside, and the voice of Zi Xiang was heard.
"Xiao jie, it's late. You should go to the dining room for a meal."
"Okay, I know. "
Then, Mu Yunjin got up from her couch, put on her shoes and walked outside.
When he walked out of the door, Chu Li also just came out of the diagonally opposite room. When she looked up, she happened to face Chu Li’s eyes. Mu Yunjin's heart was inexplicably cold and caught a glimpse of a strange look on Chu Li's eyes.
Subconsciously, Mu Yunjin moved away her guilty eyes.
After moving her eyes, Mu Yunjin felt that her behavior seemed very inappropriate. Why did she feel guilty when she did not do anything wrong?
Thinking of it, Mu Yunjin twitched her mouth and she was speechless at herself.
……….
In the dining room, Mu Yunjin sat down, and glanced at the cookies placed in front of her, looking at the cookies she pursed her lips and looked a little happy.
Chu Li sat motionless, and just took in the scene of Mu Yunjin's face, and his voice sounded after a short time.
"Eat."
Mu Yunjin picked up her chopsticks, but she helplessly put down her chopsticks and put her hand to knead her stomach. She had just come back from the Qin Tai Fei's Plum Gardens, her mouth basically didn't stop. Now this evening, she really don't feel like eating.
Chu Li also didn't move his chopsticks, seeing that Mu Yunjin also didn't move, he slowly asked.
"Have no appet.i.te?"
Mu Yunjin shook her head and slightly frowned.
"I ate too much in Qin Tai Fei's place, and now I am not hungry. "
"En"
Chu Li said lightly.
"Then don't eat."
When the words were finished, Chu Li stood up and walked to Mu Yunjin's side. He looked at her with a fixed look.
"This prince is going to Shui Yun temple. Do you want to go?"
Mu Yunjin shook her head.
"I won't go."
When Mu Yunjin's words dropped, she pursed her lips, and lowered her eyes. She secretly thought, she will not follow behind Chu Li.
In the days when they were in River Moon city, it was boring. It was still the best to live freely and leisurely.
When Chu Li heard Mu Yunjin's reply, he left the dining hall without any expression.
Seeing that this table filled with dishes was not touched, Shen Momo stepped forward a few steps, and regrettably sighed, and then look at Mu Yunjin.
"Huang zi Fei, did you anger His Highness?"
"..…."
Mu Yunjin grunted and immediately wringed her eyebrows.
"Why would I make him angry?"
"Then it's weird, and I don't know which nerve in His Highness is wrong. He just went out and obviously is angry. Aiyo, it's a pity for all these food."
Shen Momo shook her head and began to clear out the table.
When Mu Yunjin heard Shen Momo's words, she also sighed. She reckoned that the message disclosed by the s.p.a.ce release Master made Chu Li unhappy.
After all, a day that this method cannot be solved is a day longer that Rong Fei cannot be rescued.
But she was curious. What kind of mistake did Rong Fei made, that the Emperor had placed her in this kind of array method?
The last time she met Rong Fei, she forgot to ask about it.
However, Rong Fei had the Phoenix Feather Pavilion, and is not one to be trifle with. How can she be willing to be trapped in that array method?
"Huang zi fei, If His Highness has not yet gone out, why don't you go with him? He asked you just now, that means he wanted to take you."
Shen Momo once again spoke as she looked for an oil paper to wrap the cookies, not giving Mu Yunjin a chance to refuse.
Without waiting for her to nod, Shen Momo put the wrapped cookies into Mu Yunjin's arms.
"Go ahead, the cookies are still hot, you can eat it when you're hungry."
After saying that, she pulled Mu Yunjin up and pushed her to walk towards the door.
Walking out of the dining room, Chu Li and Ding Xian coincidentally walked out as well. When Shen Momo saw them, she immediately smiled.
"Your Highness, Huang zi fei also wants to go with you, and even brought along some food."
Shen Momo laughed, and pushed Mu Yunjin towards Chu Li's direction.
Mu Yunjin was energetically pushed by Shen momo, and she had lost her center of gravity for a moment and went into the direction of Chu Li. She inwardly sighed that Shen Momo was old but her strength was not small.
She thought that Chu Li would get out of the way and not touch her, but she unexpectedly fell into a cold embrace. Her right hand was on Chu Li's shoulders, and Mu Yunjin shivered at the ice-cold sensation.
(TL: Is Chu Li a vampire? Why is he always cold? õ.O)
Chu Li's hand is now gently placed on Mu Yunjin's back, when he saw her standing firmly, his hand let go, and he lowered his eyes to stare at Mu Yunjin and then raised his eyebrow.
"Not moving?"
Mu Yunjin immediately reacted and pushed Chu Li's chest. She waited for herself to stand firmly before she embarrasedly looked back at Shen Momo. She was enraged.
"Momo, next time, you are not allowed to push me!"
"Yes, yes, yes, this servant knows."
Shen Momo grinned and immediately walked back to the dining hall.
"Let's go."
Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin and then walked out.
Mu Yunjin looked at Chu Li's back figure, suddenly felt that if you ride a tiger, it's hard to get off. She wrinkled her forehead then followed behind Chu Li.
Behind them, Shen Momo looked at the figure of the two people and couldn't help but smile. Zi Xiang stood on the side and frowned.
"Momo, His Highness seems not to be willing to acknowledge xiao jie. Why did you push her towards His Highness?"
"Stupid girl, have you ever seen someone who doesn't want to talk to you and yet still ask that someone to go with you?"
Shen Momo looked at Zi Xiang.
Zi Xiang did not really understand but after recalling the state of the two people just now, her face became worried.
"I'm afraid it won't be easy between xiao jie and His Highness!"
"It won't be easy, and we do not have the final say. Good, this girl, hurry and clean up the house."
"Yes Momo."
Sitting on the carriage, Mu Yunjin was leaning against the carriage and looked at Chu Li.
"What's the purpose of going to Shui Yun temple so late at night?"
Chu Li closed his eyes, and did not respond to Mu Yunjin.
Mu Yunjin did not think too much, believing that Chu Li had fallen asleep and did not hear her. She no longer spoke to Chu Li.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Ding Xian's voice came from outside, Chu Li opened his eyes, and his eyes are filled with indolent meaning.
After getting off the carriage, Ding Xian raised a big lantern to help Chu Li illuminate the road.
After walking a few steps, Chu Li stopped his footsteps, and swept his eyes over Ding Xian.
"You can stay here."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Ding Xian nodded, then immediately gave an apologetic smile towards Mu Yunjin and pa.s.sed the lantern in his hand into Mu Yunjin's hands.
"Huang zi fei, thank you for your trouble."
After speaking, Ding Xian ran back to the carriage in lightning speed, appearing to be escaping.
The corner of Mu Yunjin's mouth twitched, she bowed her head to look at the lantern in her hand. She bit her lip and was just about to asked Chu Li about the Jade Pendant. Chu Li seemed to know what she was going to ask because he simply said two words.
"Didn't bring."
It was this 'didn't bring' words again, Mu Yunjin remained silent and rolled her eyes. However, the Jade pendant is now sold to Chu Li and the authority over it is not in her hands, so she has no say about it.
Without any better option, she resigned herself to carry the lantern and walk on Chu Li's side.
Walking along the way, Mu Yunjin totally felt that something is wrong. After a while she lowered her head and looked at the lantern. Then, wrinkling her brows, she looked at Chu Li.
"Why should I help you carry your lantern? You are the one who can't see, you should carry it on your own."
After saying that, Mu Yunjin stretched out her hand and handed the lantern to Chu Li.
Chu Li stopped, and looked at Mu Yunjin.
"You are living in ben huang zi's house. You eat for free and live for free. Is ben huang zi asking you to pay?"
Ha?
This is like a soft spoken oppression, causing difficulties to a person's weakness.
Mu Yunjin silently retracred back her hand, and curled her lips.
"Act as if I said nothing."
A moment later, Chu Li and Mu Yunjin came to the Buddhist hall, where Master Huai Yuan lived. Master Huai Yuan seemed to know Chu Li and Mu Yunjin were coming because the house is brightly lit with candles.
"This old man greets Liu huang zi and Liu huang zi fei."
Master Huai Yuan walked out of the door and saw Chu Li and Mu Yunjin and bowed in ceremony.
"Excused from ceremony."
Chu Li replied.
Master Huai Yuan nodded and looked at Chu Li with a smile.
"This old man was having a game of chess today and encountered a situation that is hard to break. Since Liu huang zi had come, is it possible to play with this old man?"
"With pleasure."
Chu Li smiled and walked down to the chess table and sat down.
Master Huai Yuan sat down on the opposite side of the table. The two men grasped the black and white, and began to fight on the chess board.
Mu Yunjin found a chair to sit down. In the past, she did not study the game of go, so watching Chu Li and Master Huai Yuan's concentrated interest at playing chess, Mu Yunjin yawned from time to time.
"This match is Liu huang zi's win."
"The old man is ashamed, my chess art is not good and lost again."
"His Highness has won again…."
In the next period, Mu Yunjin leaned on the chair and dozed off, then she heard Master Huai Yuan's voice, she slightly open her eyes, and found that one and a half hours of time has pa.s.sed.
The two men in front of the chess table had no intention of stopping.
Mu Yunjin faintly reasoned, as it turned out, Chu Li came to look for Master Huai Yuan to play chess.
She does not feel like watching the two people play chess, she got up and stretched her arms.
"I'm going out to blow some wind."
At the end of her words, Mu Yunjin pushed the door open and walked out.
Chu Li lifted his eyes and looked at Mu Yunjin's departing figure.
Master Huai Yuan's buddhist hall is very unique. The road you need to pa.s.s through has quite a long flight of steps. At this moment, Mu Yunjin walked outside, into a long corridor. The corridor was full of small lanterns. In the silent night, it was a little warm.
Mu Yunjin leaned against the railings on the corridor. Because of the higher elevation of where she was standing and the illumination of the moonlight, she could see the Millennium Old Tree not far away.
At this time, there was a little breeze, looking at it, the red wishes that was winding on the ancient tree, was dancing with the wind. Mu Yunjin looked at this scene while her heart was palpitating a little.
Suddenly, her footsteps moved to the direction down the steps.
Mu Yunjin went outside the courtyard of the Ancient Millenium tree, she saw that the door is locked, Mu Yunjin look around for a moment, not a soul in sight, so she then used qinggong to easily fly into the yard.
Entering the courtyard, the lanterns were lit all around. Mu Yunjin looked at the old tree and walked towards it step by step.
After walking to the ancient tree, the sentiments of inexplicable sadness came out again. Mu Yunjin's throat was choked with emotions. Gradually extending her hand, she slowly touched the ancient tree...
