Chapter 390 The Landlord's Foolish Son and His Poor Dog 23
At first they were still a little lucky, after all, they hadn't heard of the two people holding a wedding banquet.
But later, a piece of news came out from somewhere that the mysterious man was unwilling to hold the wedding, but despite this, the landlord still gave the betrothal gift to their family.
It was rumored that the guards carrying the betrothal gifts lined up ten kilometers from Tieniu Village.
In addition, now that the landlord has moved to Tieniu Village, those who were originally waiting for the mysterious man to be kicked out of Pei Mansion all showed envious expressions when talking to others.
It would be great if it was them or their sons that the silly son fell in love with.
The two protagonists mentioned by everyone were sitting in the shade somewhere halfway up the hill, waiting for their grandfather to come back from picking wild fruits on the mountain.
Pei Xuan found a palm leaf and placed it over Ji Bai's head to block the sunlight that was falling through the gaps between the leaves.
Ji Bai raised his eyes to take a look, then lowered his head again.
It is now the end of August. After resting for a while, Mr. Li finally couldn't wait any longer and went up the mountain to see if he could still find wax gourd.
Ji Bai, who was bored of staying at home, also came up. Naturally, his followers also followed him happily.
The guards walked in front along the way and dealt with all the small insects that Pei Xuan was afraid of, and only then did they successfully reach the halfway point on the hillside.
But the forest that Mr. Li went to was quite deep and there were many thorns. He was afraid that the thorns would scratch the landlord's son, so he simply stopped Ji Bai from following him.
Because after several months of getting along, he already understood very well that only if his own obedient grandson didn't go, the landlord's stupid son would not continue to follow him.
It was still a little hot at the end of August, but the stove beside him seemed to be insensitive and still held him tightly, making him half nestle in his arms.
A thin layer of sweat broke out on Ji Baire's forehead. He reached out his hand and pushed away Pei Xuan who was hugging him motionlessly.
But the next second, Pei Xuan would quickly come up to him again, and take out a clean, white handkerchief from somewhere to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
After a few times, Pei Xuan slowly reacted and looked at him pitifully: "Madam, didn't you want Ah Xuan's hug just now?"
Ji Bai:.........
Under Pei Xuan's gaze, which was like that of a poor abandoned puppy, Ji Bai still said against his will: "No."
When Pei Xuan heard this, the pity on his face disappeared instantly. He put on a smile and continued to hug his wife, whom he liked more and more, and kissed her hard on the cheek.
Ji Bai sighed silently, then covered himself and Pei Xuan with a touch of divine power to keep themselves cool.
818 came back from the jungle with red juice at the corners of his mouth.
It was holding a dazzling red fruit in its hand, and it rushed to Ji Bai with excitement, saying excitedly: [Boss!! This fruit is delicious! I brought it back specially for you to taste!!]
Ji Bai raised his eyelids and took a look, then fell silent.
The fruit in 818's hand is the rainbow Buddha fruit, which is not very toxic and will not kill you. Eating one or two is not a big deal, but it tastes very good. Many people can't help but eat more after eating one or two. The poison accumulates in the body and they will faint for ten days or half a month.
818's face was still full of excitement, and he said enthusiastically: [...There must be people who have never been to the cliff, and the TV shows say that everything there is good, and then I flew over and saw this red fruit! Then I picked it up and tasted it, guess what! This is the most delicious fruit I have ever eaten! ! Boss, you should try it! ! I'll go to the cliff to take a look later...]
Its eyelids suddenly drooped in fatigue, and it continued to speak the second half of the sentence in a daze: [...Let's see...what else is good...to eat...]
Before he could finish his words, 818 fell to the ground from mid-air with a thud.
Ji Bai: ........
He slightly raised his slender white fingers and picked up 818, which had eaten who knows how many rainbow Buddha fruits, from the ground. Then he pressed his fingertips slightly and injected a touch of divine power into its body to expel the toxins inside.
After three breaths, 818 slowly opened its eyes, sat up slowly, looked around in a daze, and touched its head in confusion: [Huh? Why am I here? ]
Ji Bai was silent for a while, then he raised his fingertips slightly and threw it back into the sea of consciousness.
This guy should just continue watching those meaningless and melodramatic TV dramas. I let him out this time and he almost poisoned himself to death.
Just after I finished all this, a figure suddenly came over from a distance, still saying something nonsense:
"...fish, or duckweed grass. Or soaked insects, turtle fins, red eels, hidden. The spirits of trees, demons and ghosts. They take human form, charm people, and seduce men and women..."
Ji Bai raised his eyes to look over, but before he could see who was there, the guards beside him had already stood in front of them.
The weird old man walked closer step by step, and his words became clearer and clearer. He seemed not to notice the people around him and continued to walk straight forward.
After he walked away a little, the guards slowly put away their unsheathed swords.
Ji Bai looked at the old man's back, and after just one glance, his brows furrowed. He felt a little angry, then he came to his senses and looked at Pei Xuan who was hugging him tightly. When his eyes met his black eyes, he paused slightly.
At this moment, there was no more silliness between Pei Xuan's brows. His dark and deep black eyes revealed murderous intent and sharp light. His thin lips were pursed into a straight line, and his whole body exuded a powerful and dangerous aura.
This feeling was as if Chu Xuan, who had recovered his memory and all his strength, was filled with a strong sense of oppression at a glance.
Ji Bai paused for a long while before raising his hand and lightly touching his cheek with his fingertips.
Pei Xuan seemed to have just woken up from a dream. He was dazed for a moment, then returned to his dazed and stupid look. When he turned his head, he was still a little dazed and had forgotten what had just happened.
His breathing was a little unsteady, and he said in confusion: "Madam, that person just now was very strange."
Ji Bai put down his hand: "It's okay, don't be afraid."
Pei Xuan's face pressed against his, and his hand grasped his hand, and he said softly, "Don't be afraid, my lady. If he is a bad guy, Ah Xuan will definitely protect you."
Ji Bai tilted his head slightly, looked at the empty path, then retracted his gaze and said "hmm".
The two waited for a long time before Mr. Li, who had returned with a full load, came from a distance with a few guards.
"Mmmmm!! Big idiot!! Grandpa, I picked a lot of fruits!!!"
The two stood up early and looked at Mr. Li who was approaching excitedly. Pei Xuan, who had long forgotten what happened before, said excitedly: "Great! Grandpa is awesome!!!"
