Moonshine & Valentine: His Excellency’s First Love (Love Knot) - Chapter 54

Although he was very naughty and bold since he was a child, Pippi is actually very afraid of the dark, and also very afraid of strange places.

C City Zoo is in the southwest corner of the city, with a direct expressway, only half an hour’s drive from Lushui Villa.

When Pippi arrived, the gate of the zoo had already been closed. She stepped over a courtyard wall effortlessly and headed into the depths of the garden.

She hasn’t been to this place for about ten years, but she frequented it as a child. However, the zoo is obviously not the focus of C City construction. It hasn’t changed much in ten years. This is a lake area surrounded by mountains and rivers. The places near the water are the Rare Birds Pavilion, the Birds of Prey Pavilion and the Bird Park. Several black swans live on the small island in the middle. After slipping north, passing through the reptile area, and then turning west, past the Liger Mountain, Panda Garden and Orangutan Pavilion, you will reach the canine area.

The zoo at night was much quieter than she thought. Most of the time, she only heard the sound of camels chewing quietly, the sound of tigers walking in the cage, and the sound of monkeys jumping between trees. Canine animals are arranged on the left side of a road, a high fence, each animal has a sign in front of the fence, explaining the origin of the animal in detail.

Pippi quickly found his goal:

“Red Fox”

Aliases: Southern Fox, Grass Fox.

Lifespan: about 12 years

Food: Mainly feed on Himalayan marmots and rodents, but also eat wild birds, frogs, fish, insects, etc., as well as various wild fruits and crops.

Physiological characteristics: well-developed sense of hearing and smell, cunning sex, quick action. Like to be alone. Prey at night.

Protection level: low risk.

Existing situation: It is widely distributed in Tibet. In the 1970s, the number of red foxes was large. In recent years, with the sharp decline of cats, red fox skins have become more valuable. The number is decreasing sharply. It is the second-level key protected animal in the autonomous region.

Leaning on the railing, Pippi did not see the fox inside. The street lamp was very dark, and the black end of the iron cage, with a few suspicious shadows, turned on the flashlight, and it was a haystack.

After visiting the farm, Pippi knows that the cage for raising foxes usually has an incubator at the back to give birth to pregnant foxes.

The electric light flashed twice at the door of the incubator. Sure enough, there was movement. A fluffy guy poked his head out of the box. It was a red fox with a long tail. A pair of eyes shone in the dark.

Pippi raised the flashlight and craned her neck to take a closer look, when suddenly someone patted her on the back from behind. She was startled, the flashlight fell to the ground, and people almost fell.

Behind her there was a fragrance of magnolia. Turning around, she saw Qianhua standing in front of her. Look at that red fox is gone.

“Are you looking for me?” Qianhua said. She was still wearing a peacock cheongsam. The difference from the last time she saw was that she had fiery red hair, which was curled up, with a begonia bead buckle in it.

Pippi was too scared to speak for a long time. After recovering, he nodded quickly.

She handed her a cloth bag she had prepared and said, “Helan would like to ask you for a favor. He is injured and he is quite serious.”

Qianhua looked at Pippi’s face and studied her sincerity in speaking. Take the bag in your hand, take out the contents and look through it the same.

Then, she picked out the ring and threw it on the grass: “The ring is not his.”

After that, with a sneer, he threw the burden back, raised his leg and left.

It seems that she saw through her intentions and refused to cooperate. Pippi felt cold and quickly said:

“and many more!”

She threw another thing to Qianhua: “This is for you.”

Qianhua’s hand caught in the air and caught a red bead. So he put the red bead between his fingers like a trick, and then rubbed it on her face. A pair of phoenix eyes squinted at her: “This-are you willing to give it to me?”

Pippi gritted his teeth, then nodded vigorously.

She gave her a sharp look: “Then you don’t regret it.”

“will not.”

Cherry’s mouth suddenly opened and swallowed the bead in, as if eating a candy.

“Uh-” Pippi sighed slightly.

Qianhua took the baggage in her hand, put it on her wrist, and said briskly: “Let’s go.”

In the car, Pippi glanced at the towering Rufeng with a thousand flowers. She has a classic face but the figure of Marilyn Monroe. He raised his head very high, with a reserved posture, and didn’t talk to her much all the way.

After getting out of the car, Pippi followed her like an entourage. She faintly guessed that Qianhua’s help would embarrass her.

“Xiu Yan is here too?” She suddenly asked in the corridor.

“He was here before, and then left.”

“No.” Qianhua said, “Helan was injured, he should be around here. He and Kannaga have always been his most trusted confidants.”

“Kanaga just passed away.” Pippi said.

Qianhua couldn’t help but stop: “Kanaga died?”

“You do not know?”

“do not know.”

“So, is it Zhao Song?”

“I think so. Who else can hurt Helan besides Zhao Song?”

“Of course.” She sneered, “You.”

Pippi shut up.

They went to the bedroom. Helan Jingting was still asleep. Pippi opened a corner of the blanket, and the gauze was soaked again. There was blood on the sheets.

Qianhua took a guitar from the side of the bookcase, took a stick of incense from the bag and lit it by the bed. Then she said to Pippi: “Go out and avoid it.”

The door is closed.

Pippi sat on the sofa outside the door, she wanted to go further, and couldn’t help but listen to what Qianhua was going to do inside.

After a while, a beautiful chord came from the room. A female voice sang in a low voice:

The skirt cuts Peacock Luo, red and green are paired.

Reflected by the dragon brocade, it is distinct and lovely.

You know the thickness, from Lang Suo’s clothes.

A hurried door was passed, the voice was low, but for some reason, it became clearer:

Fortunately, I love the scenery, but I hate good nights.

Man’s eyes were charming, and he looked at each other insatiably.

Huanqing can’t bear to sleep, from Lang Suohuahua.

Pippi couldn’t help but think of the part in “Shooting the Condor” that Guo Jing and Ouyang Ke competed for marriage. The singing of these thousand flowers is like the sound of Huang Yaoshi’s flute, drilled into the ears like iron wires, no matter how you cover your ears, you can’t stop it.

If you say that flowers are better than others, people will spend more time today.

Send a message to the wind, don’t blow the flowers to the end.

For winning flower makeup, start with Lang Suo pink.

It was only then that Pippi suddenly understood that these songs were the “Ten Suo” that the fox fairies said at that time. It’s a love song that everyone in the fox tribe can sing. When singing, you also need some tokens such as ceremonies and clothing belts, anthuriums, powder, rings, and pillows. Sure enough, Qianhua continued to sing:

Twenty-eight looks good, and it’s unintentionally related.

Every mulberry wants to pick up and break, but lazy to climb.

If you want to have a slender hand, take the ring from Lang Suo.

With a pain in her heart, she covered her ears, ran out of the door, and ran to the top of the mountain. Sitting under the tulip against a round of bright moon. She suddenly understood what Qianhua’s so-called treatment meant. The love of the skin is the most convenient way for the fox clan to export true yuan. After unwinding a candle, I feel like sharing a bed. Qianhua is so beautiful, Helan must like her. And when she swallowed Meizhu, Helan would like her even more. Pippi was depressed for the first time, heartbroken, jealous, and helpless. Tears pattered down. The lingering sound didn’t let her go, drifting across the mountains to my ears:

The orchid house is under the green curtain, and the lotus tent is Shu Yuanjin.

Love should go well early, and honey must go to bed together.

If you want to make a lingering, from Lang Suo flower pillow.

The singing stopped abruptly. Her associations did not stop, she kept thinking forward in the direction implied by the lyrics, thinking forward, thinking that her brain was feverish and blank.

She suddenly regretted meeting Helan. Yes, she does not belong to his world, she is not his kind, except to die, she can’t save him. If something happens to her, Helan will be there on call, even if she doesn’t. If something happens to Helan, she can only stand by and helpless.

She always thought Helan was immortal.

It turns out that there is nothing immortal in this world, and the immortal will eventually die.

Dou Zhuan Xing Yi, she didn’t know how long she had been sitting on the top of the mountain, when she heard the rustling of leaves on the mountain road, and someone whispered: “Pippi.”

She followed the sound and saw that Helan Jingting came up in her dressing gown, and hurriedly stood up to meet her: “Hey, Helan, are you… better?”

His face was still pale in the moonlight, and he didn’t have much strength to walk. The blind stick in his hand struck the ground hard, almost becoming a crutch.

“Why did you get here?” he said, “I’m looking for you everywhere.”

Meizhu is not around, no wonder he can’t find it.

There was a stone on the ground, but he didn’t see it, and he staggered a step. Pippi caught him in time: “Ah, these thousand flowers are really amazing. In the afternoon you don’t have the strength to walk, you can climb the mountain now. Sit down and rest, sit here, I just sat on this stone, it’s warm. “After all, don’t care about the three seven twenty one, pull him to sit down.

She also sat down next to him and put her arms around him. He hung his head against her shoulder, breathing to the neck, still hot.

She was slightly startled, touched his forehead, and said, “Why is your head still so hot? Are you still having a fever?”

Then she couldn’t help but said again: “Does the fox fairy also have a fever? You have been on the fever all day!”

“Don’t worry, I will get better,” he murmured.

“The mountain wind is so cold and you don’t want to wear more.” She tied his belt and hugged him tightly. “Has Qianhua gone?”

“gone.”

“You guys… well, that…”

“Whose idea was you looking for Qianhua?”

Pippi thought, at this time she had to protect Su Mei: “No one, I figured it out by myself. You are so familiar, you should borrow some vitality from her, she should not be stingy.”

His head was drooping and he didn’t speak.

She gently said again: “If it’s not enough, I… um… I can help you too.” The last few words sounded like gnats, inaudible.

As soon as she finished speaking, her ears were twitched: “Look at your hair so hard to grow out, I will never let it fall again. Besides, your vitality is too little to help me. It’s better. It’s fast to take me to watch football every day.”

“I mean… I mean… I can ask Xiuyan to perform an operation for me. I know that your injury will take a long time to recover. But I am worried that Zhao Song will come to you during this time.”

Thinking of this, she unconsciously squeezed his hand, and her body trembled slightly.

“Pippi, don’t worry. I am injured, and Zhao Song is also injured. He will not come to me for the time being.”

She knew that he said this only to comfort her.

Seeing her silent for a long time, he suddenly said: “Pippi, I once swear to myself, as long as you are still alive, I will try my best to find you and make you happy every day of your life. If you are hurt for me , I must not forgive myself, I must not!” His voice was in her ears, his breath was full of power, and he repeated word by word, “Do you hear clearly? Pippi? I would rather die than let You do this.”

She burst into tears: “It was me who hurt you. If you don’t save—”

“Shhh—” He covered her mouth, “Put this on.”

There was something more in his palm.

Meizhu.

It was his one, glowing with a faint red light in the night.

She changed color suddenly: “Your Meizhu?”

“Yeah. You can’t give away the things I give you casually.” His expression seems to be a parent criticizing a child who has done bad things. “My Meizhu, except you, has not been contaminated by the third party in hundreds of years. The breath of a person. Pippi ah Pippi, you just gave away so generously, you are really my fate.”

She became anxious all of a sudden, did she dare to love the zoo in vain: “Then Qianhua…has she cured you?”

“No.”

She suddenly became angry: “No? Did she do nothing?”

“No.”

“So, she didn’t heal your injury?” She almost cried, “Qianhua looks good and sings well. She likes you. You and her…you are welcome, right? Hey? Lan, I don’t mind, I really don’t mind as long as you can get better soon.”

She buried her head in her arms and whimpered.

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Helan Jingting stroked her back and said slowly: “I can’t lose my body casually, I have been like jade for hundreds of years, how can this innocence be destroyed on her…”

She was so embarrassed that she couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

She put his palm on her earlobe: “Here is the pierced ear.” She grabbed his finger and gently touched between her earlobe, “Did you find it? There is a small hole here.”

He couldn’t see anything clearly, so he was not very accurate, and there was a slight tingling when the golden ring was inserted. She suspected that he was wearing the wrong direction. But at this time, she was a little expecting pain. Pain can divert her anxiety.

“How did you get this pearl?” she asked suddenly, “I saw Qianhua swallow it into my stomach with my own eyes.”

He was silent for a while and said, “Then I guess, she might have vomited it back to me.”

“Uh–”

“It’s not clean, I know. So I washed for a long time, and brushed vigorously with a toothbrush—”

“Will Qianhua be angry with you?”

“You shouldn’t find her.” He sighed. “Of course she will be angry.”

She wanted to continue to ask, but when she saw him look tired, she stopped talking.

They hugged each other and sat under the moon.

Soon he fell asleep again, evenly warm breath blowing into her neck.

The mountains rose like spring water, the moonlight was dim, and the stars in the distance were like buttons inlaid on the horizon.

In the middle of the night, he slept deeply. The mountain wind hit the people, and he coughed, and something shiny came out of his mouth.

Pippi was taken aback.

It was a crystal-transparent bead, the size of a longan, floating above his head, faintly shining with lavender fluorescence. She let out a sigh of relief, and the beads floated around like bubbles with the change in the airflow, and did not go far.

In addition to Mei Zhu, it turned out that Helan Jingting had other beads on her body.

Pippi thought it was fun, and reached out to the air to catch the beads. She raised her hand slightly, and it immediately rose and floated into the air. Fearing that it would run too far to return, she picked up Helan’s blind cane from the ground and wanted to get it off, but a low voice suddenly came from behind: “Don’t touch it!”

She hurriedly withdrew her hands and saw Xiu Fei sitting on a stone pier not far from them.

“This is his true essence.” He said lightly, “Only when he is most desperate will he let it run out and expose it to the moonlight to absorb the essence of the moonlight. Except crystals, it can’t touch anything. Anything. Everything will make it burst and disappear immediately like a soap bubble. And it will immediately become its original shape and return to the state before the cultivation.”

Fortunately that he did not do anything stupid, Pippi asked, “What about you? Do you have a bead like this too?”

“We are very different from him. We don’t have the original shape. If this bead is ruined, we will die immediately.” He said coldly, “So we will never let Yuanzhu run out of the body like him.”

Pippi couldn’t help but sigh.

He is still saying “we” until now, as if Kanei is still alive.

She brought Helan Jingting to her arms and murmured: “I hope he will get better soon.”

“The bead ran out. He doesn’t have any consciousness now. However, his situation is very dangerous.” Xiu Fei frowned, “Zhao Song must be lurking in this area. He and Helan were injured at the same time, and it is estimated that he will come in a week. Look for Helan. Although his injury is not necessarily lighter than Helan, his skill is higher than him, and he will recover faster than him.”

He paused and looked up at her.

The building will tilt, that is, in front of you.

“Tell me how to help Helan,” she calmed down, feeling that her voice was strange, as if she had become another person, “or tell me **** Zhao Song.”

After a moment of silence, Xiuyan said, “Have you heard of the tomb of King Yan Zhao?”
