The sound of footsteps was heard in the yard. Hua Xi's body was very light and he immediately dodged back and hid in a corner.
As for Xiao Guizi, she was holding a piece of snack on the ground as if no one else was watching, and was eating happily.
"Xiao Guizi, come here." Hua Xi waved.
But the other party ignored her.
The two priestesses walked slowly along the gravel path. When they saw Xiao Guizi on the roadside, they both chuckled.
"I heard that this is a mythical beast. Looking at how stupid he looks, I don't believe it!"
"But the National Preceptor said he was a divine beast, so he couldn't be wrong. I heard he was clever before, but he was frightened when the temple was massacred."
"It's really unheard of that there are such timid beasts."
"He looks like a mouse. He's so stupid. I guess his original owner didn't want him anymore because he looked so stupid."
"It's me and I don't want it anymore. It was originally a mythical beast, but now it's just a stupid mouse!"
The priestess walked away chatting and laughing, but Xiao Guizi, who had been verbally humiliated, still had no reaction at all and ate snacks blankly, still so happy.
Hua Xi felt a little uncomfortable, Xiao Guizi... He had always been so smart and clever, with the pride of a mythical beast, but now he was called a mouse.
He was completely ignorant, but Hua Xi felt very distressed.
Slowly walked out, squatted on the ground, and touched Xiao Guizi's head.
What exactly did you see during that massacre in the temple? Why did it happen like this?
"Xiao Guizi..." Hua Xi said silently, "It's all my fault."
Xiao Guizi suddenly raised her head and said 'chirp' to her!
Hope suddenly rose in Hua Xi's heart. Was it that he was pretending and recovered after seeing her?
Maybe he was angry with her, after all, he didn’t come back for two years!
Hua Xi lowered her head with joy, but saw the little guy in front of her stretching out her paws towards her, blinking her big watery eyes, and her two front teeth were white.
It seems that I have finished eating the snacks and still want them.
Hua Xi couldn't hide the deep disappointment in her eyes.
He took out the snacks again and piled them one by one in his hand.
Xiao Guizi jumped directly into her hands and started eating happily, as if she never had enough.
When someone gives him something to eat, he has no defense at all.
Hua Xi shook her head, how could the old Xiao Guizi be like this?
She touched his head with pity and said it was okay. She is back now and will take him away.
He stood up with Xiao Guizi in his arms. He originally wanted to come to Lu Lian and inquire about Dugu Feng, but it seemed that it was not easy to meet Lu Lian.
She wanted to take Xiao Guizi back first, but when she turned around, a familiar voice came from behind her.
"Hua Xi?" He was cold and slightly arrogant, calm and unruffled, like a pool of stagnant water that would never make waves.
Hua Xi suddenly turned around and saw Lu Lian, dressed in a green robe, standing in the yard. Her appearance had not changed, she was still as cold as ever, arrogant and indifferent, like a green lotus emerging from the mud but unstained.
"Master Imperial Master!" Hua Xi did not expect that he would show up on his own initiative, and was a little happy.
Lu Lian's narrow eyes glanced at Xiao Guizi in her arms, her lips pursed slightly, and she let out a 'shhh' sound. Xiao Guizi, who was eating cakes, perked up her ears and immediately jumped from Hua Xi's arms to Lu Lian.
Lotus hand.
Hua Xi was startled and felt even more disappointed.
In the past, Xiao Guizi only listened to her, but now...
"After what happened two years ago, he became like this."
