Lu Ji came to Bai Yi's bedside, smiling like a spring breeze and smelling of fragrance.
To be honest, Midori Ji is very beautiful after she has just finished cleaning herself. With this charming smile, she will definitely make countless people excited.
But for some reason, Bai Yi didn't appreciate it, but felt a little scary.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Bai Yi always felt that Lu Ji's body had a strong Yin energy.
It's like the painter who just went to the market and chopped off dozens of heads.
——
Bai Yi didn't quite understand this feeling.
But Lu Ji doesn't care about that much.
"You're awake."
She just sat beside Bai Yi's bed, stretched out her hands, and held Bai Yi's hand tightly.
"Thank you, really thank you."
She held it very hard and seemed to be rubbing it intentionally.
Bai Yi felt for a moment that Lu Ji was rubbing her own oil.
But considering that the other party is a queen, she shouldn't do such a thing. It's probably because I'm overthinking.
"How are you? Are you feeling better?" she asked with concern.
"Your Majesty, I'm feeling much better now. It's just that I overused my magic power. I'll be fine if I take a nap."
Lu Ji had already learned about Bai Yi's ability from Luna, and also knew that Bai Yi was deliberately concealing it.
Since her savior didn't say anything, she didn't need to ask any more questions. She just said:
"Thank you very much. If it weren't for you, I can't imagine what would have happened next. It's not an exaggeration to say that you are the savior of the daughter country."
She stared straight at Bai Yi, her bright eyes as if she were seeing stars.
But as she looked at it, she suddenly felt a little dazed, just because the other person gave her a somewhat familiar feeling.
"Have we... met somewhere?"
At this moment, the queen's eyes became a little confused.
Bai Yi thought that the Queen was thinking of White Bird.
After all, he and Shiratori are brother and sister. Even if he becomes a woman, his eyebrows still look very similar to Shiratori's.
——
"Probably not. This is my first time meeting you." Bai said.
"Is this so..."
"Your Majesty, since I have cured you, should your country also..."
The implication is that it's time to pay the medical bills. How could Lu Ji not understand?
She said boldly:
"You can have anything you want, as long as I can get it."
"I heard that your majesty has a treasure called [Xia Lingzhu]. If your majesty is willing to part with you, I will be grateful."
"Xia Lingzhu? Is this it?"
"At once?"
Bai Yi was shocked. Looking at the other party's reaction, did he ask for a low price?
Do you want to increase the price? Do you want to pay more?
As soon as I had this plan in mind, the appearance of the white bird appeared in my mind.
Then there's the White Bird's garden, and the temple.
——
[Forget it, let’s leave it at that...]
[Just think of it as repaying the Queen for her nurturing grace on behalf of your sister]
——
"Yes, I came here this time just for the Wind-fixing Bead, and nothing else."
Green Girl is puzzled:
"It's just a bead, it's nothing, but are you sure you only want that? Don't you plan on ordering anything else?"
"Nothing else is necessary, just treat it as a favor to His Majesty. However, if you need anything from me in the future, please give me a helping hand."
"This is natural."
After that, the two of them talked about a lot of things.
Lu Ji asked Bai Yi to have a good rest, hoping that Bai Yi could live in the daughter country for a while and experience the local customs.
But Bai Yize said that he still had things to deal with back home and couldn't wait too long.
Lu Ji asked what was going on, but Bai Yiyi said it was not convenient to reveal it.
Lu Ji had no choice but to say:
"Okay, but at least you have a good rest tonight and leave tomorrow."
"I'm sorry to let you down."
"It's okay, you are my savior, I am proud to consider you."
She said this and left with a smile.
Not long after, someone brought some food over.
——
Bai Benben thought he could leave smoothly the next day.
After all, Lu Ji has promised herself.
However, things seem to be different from what I thought.
Early the next morning, Lu Ji came to deliver Xia Lingzhu in person.
Judging from the appearance, it is actually not a special bead, just a black palm-sized crystal ball.
Just as Bai Yi was observing carefully, Lu Ji suddenly said:
"The Great Imperial Master intentionally cut off the connection between the ground and the air island, so most of the giant eagles carrying people to the ground had problems."
"What does this mean?"
"What I mean is that those giant eagles are sick and cannot be used temporarily, so you may have to stay on the empty island for a longer time."
"Oh, it's nothing. I'm a doctor, just let me cure them."
At this time, Bai Yi was not aware of the other party's true purpose.
"How can you do this kind of thing? Besides, those eagles are not under my control. If I intervene rashly, the relevant person in charge will not agree."
"Uh... what about the gryphon? Is the gryphon okay? I can go down on the gryphon."
"Because there has just been a rebellion, all the griffins have been dispatched. The military needs to use them to find the remaining rebel remnants. Therefore, they cannot be freed for the time being."
"His Majesty……"
"Um?"
"Could it be that you want to keep me here..."
Bai Yi's eyelids twitched. He was not so stupid that he would believe whatever the other party said.
But Lu Ji just smiled slightly and said:
"How could it be? You are my savior, how could I lie to you about such a thing?
In fact, there is really no room for you. Besides, you are the hero of this country.
If you just go down on a griffin, it will undoubtedly be a bit shabby, and it will make the world think that my daughter's country has treated you badly.
In short, let’s wait until the giant eagle feels better before leaving.”
"Can you pick up my bodyguard? At least I have someone to talk to."
If the other party doesn't want to let him go, then he can only let Dole take him away.
But how could Lu Ji not think of this? She saw that her face was not red and her heart was not beating:
“It’s very chaotic down there during this time, and people are being arrested and arrested everywhere.
As an important witness, your attendant needs her help in identifying and assisting in investigations in many places, so I'm afraid she doesn't have time.
But it doesn't matter, as soon as she finishes her work, I will have someone pick her up immediately.
Furthermore, if you just want to find someone to talk to, then come and talk to me, you can tell me anything, it’s the same."
After that, they talked about a lot of things. Even though Bai Yi kept emphasizing that he had to go back as soon as possible, the other party could always find various reasons to stall and push back.
Green Princess is the king of the daughter country, and at the same time she is also a standard politician.
Although Bai Yi is the lord of Baicheng, he is at best a political novice. Naturally, he cannot compare with Lu Ji in terms of verbal skills.
In short, he couldn't convince the other party, and Lu Ji was determined to leave him on the empty island.
Helpless, Bai Yi had to find other ways to escape, but since he couldn't fly, this was somewhat difficult.
——
Bai Yi was so worried all day long.
It wasn't until dusk in the afternoon that Luna came in person to deliver food to her.
Bai's eyes lit up, then he remembered Lu Mao and asked:
