Chapter 363 The Sailing Race [34] Xiao Ni: I'm used to being bullied
The cold wind howled.
When he saw Mo Qing and Jiang Ke getting out of the car, Min Chang tightened his down jacket, showing an expression of relief.
Min Chang stood up and complained: "Grandma Guzu, do you think I look like a popsicle?"
Mo Qing looked at him shivering from the cold: "I think you look quite humorous."
"..."
Min Chang exhaled white mist.
Mo Qing's words made him sleepless for several hours for a week. He got up early this morning and rushed here. No one wanted to wait all day.
If it weren't for his ancestors and the ancestral precepts, what would he do...
I have to say a few words in reply.
At this time, the ajar door was opened, and a tall figure appeared at the door.
He was a young man, about the same age as Min Chang. He was dressed much thinner than Min Chang. He was dressed in black, had a cold temperament, and a handsome face. His narrow phoenix eyes were particularly prominent.
Hidden edge.
"My classmate is Xiao Ni." Min Chang introduced the young man, "He is quite familiar with Liangcheng."
The implication is that people helped.
He looked at Mo Qing again.
"I..." Min Chang thought for a moment before introducing, "Ancestor, Mo Qing."
When introducing Jiang Ke, Min Chang only said two words: "Jiang Ke."
Xiao Ni looked at Mo Qing and Jiang Ke and nodded slightly at them: "The place is open for you."
"Thank you."
Mo Qing said.
She glanced at Jiang Ke and said, "Go in."
Jiang Ke had been kept in the dark about what he was doing here. After looking at the "Shadow Puppet Show" on the sign, he had some idea, but at this time he gave up asking.
So he honestly followed Mo Qing into the store.
When Mo Qing passed Xiao Ni, he suddenly stopped.
She asked, "Mind taking your pulse?"
"What?"
A shadow fell on Xiao Ni's face, covering his face and eyes, and he looked confused for a moment.
Before he could react, Mo Qing stretched out two fingers and placed them on his wrist pulse.
Xiao Ni subconsciously wanted to avoid it.
However, Mo Qing only held it for two seconds before moving his finger away.
Mo Qing thought for a while, frowned and said, "Your pulse is a bit weird..."
Xiao Ni's expression froze slightly.
"Is there any problem?" Min Chang came over and said, "His physical examination is normal."
"I don't know. Anyway, it's not a sign of death."
Mo Qing waved his hand casually and walked inside with Jiang Ke.
Min Chang had a severe headache.
He told Xiao Ni: "She always talks like this, don't take it to heart."
"...It's okay." Xiao Ni said calmly.
He also has a sister at home who speaks even more ill-temperedly.
Get used to it.
Moving his wrist, Xiao Ni thought of what Mo Qing had just said and asked, "Does she study Chinese medicine?"
This is difficult to answer.
Min Chang thought for a moment and said: "My grandfather is an old Chinese medicine practitioner who has studied medicine since he was a child, but his medical skills are not as good as hers."
Xiao Ni glanced at him silently.
Min Chang understood what he meant immediately: "My grandfather is not a quack doctor."
"……oh."
That being said, whether Xiao Ni believes it or not is another matter.
"However, she said there was something wrong with your pulse, and she was definitely not wrong." Min Chang never doubted Mo Qing's medical skills, "You should go to the hospital for a checkup some other time."
Xiao Ni didn't respond and just said: "Let's go back."
"Um."
Min Chang nodded.
It is too late to return to the Imperial City at this point.
In addition to their accommodation, the dormitory building has long been closed.
Min Chang booked a hotel nearby in advance.
As for what will happen inside, it has nothing to do with them.

Jiang Ke followed Mo Qing and walked inside.
When he walked into the venue, he suddenly felt familiar, frowned, and then slowly relaxed.
He said: "Here..."
"You remember?"
Mo Qing tilted his head, with a smile in his eyes.
"I saw you watching a documentary earlier and you were very interested in shadow puppetry. The store you were looking at was right here." Mo Qing said calmly, "It just so happens that I know a little bit about shadow puppetry."
Jiang Ke was slightly surprised: "Are you coming?"
"Of course." Mo Qing asked with a smile, "Master, are you still waiting for me?"
Jiang Ke raised his lips: "What kind of show are you singing?"
Mo Qing raised his eyebrows: ""The True and False Monkey King"."
Jiang Ke was stunned.
The lights in the venue are dim, but behind the curtain at the front, the lights are on, and there is plenty of light.
Mo Qing asked Jiang Ke to take a seat in the front row, and then went behind the curtain alone.
At first, Mo Qing's shadow could still be seen on the curtain, but after a while, it became completely blank.
Jiang Ke watched quietly.
The mood is a bit hard to describe.
After a while, the music started playing, the image of Sun Wukong appeared on the curtain, and the play quickly got into gear.
Because memories are fabricated out of thin air, Jiang Ke lacks a basic understanding of society, so he has developed the habit of watching various documentaries whenever he has time to make up for his lack of common sense.
For the story of "Journey to the West", he first read the fragments and then made up the original work.
Jiang Ke naturally knows the ending of "The Monkey King" very well.
Why did Mo Qing choose this story?
Then, Jiang Ke discovered——
Mo Qing changed the ending.
Two identical monkeys finally reached a reconciliation. One followed the original path westward, and the other started his own life.
Correspondingly, the background score was also re-recorded.
The ending is quite free and casual, very much like Mo Qing's style.
Jiang Ke stared at the two monkeys and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
a long time.
Mo Qing's voice came from behind the curtain: "Where's the applause?"
Jiang Ke just woke up from a dream.
Mo Qing walked out from behind the curtain.
Jiang Ke raised his eyes and said in an ordinary tone: "Are you considered a magician who has modified a masterpiece?"
"So what," Mo Qing walked to Jiang Ke's table and said nonchalantly, "As long as I'm happy."
No one was watching the venue, the lights were not turned on, and the view was still dark.
The only light source is the light behind the curtain.
But it can't illuminate such a huge place.
Jiang Ke sat in the shadow, raised his head slightly, and looked at Mo Qing standing in front of him.
The front side of Mo Qing is shadow, and the back side is light.
There was a layer of light behind her.
However, it seemed as if he could pull her into the darkness with just a stretch of his hand.
Jiang Ke belatedly spoke: "You——"
"Um?"
Mo Qing lowered his head and stared at him.
After another pause, Jiang Ke suddenly asked, "Why do we need to stop Chi Shi's medication?"
Mo Qing paused for a second, then put his hand on the table, his eyes quiet but powerful.
