The men in black who sneaked into the Tang family retreated completely in the blink of an eye.
The guests who had been struck by the nightmare spell also fell into a deep sleep.
Tang Shao lowered his body and helped Tang Xi up.
Tang Xi looked pale, and although his eyes were open, his expression was in a trance.
Tang Shao looked at Mingwei: "Girl?"
"Don't worry, he was just affected by the nightmare spell. He just needs to rest for two days."
Tang Shao stretched out his hand and touched it. There was no wound on Tang Xi's lower abdomen.
He breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you."
Wen Xiuyi rolled her eyes at Mingwei and couldn't wait to claim credit from Tang Shao: "Senior brother, you don't need to thank her. She deceived us miserably, and she would do her best to drive people away, not because the other party is also her enemy..."
Over there, Mingwei had already returned to the roof and was about to leave with Ji Xiaowu.
"Where are you going?" Tang Shao asked loudly.
"Library." Mingwei waved his hand and slid back on the rope.
Tang Shao looked at her back and said nothing for a long time.
Until Wen Xiuyi's voice woke him up.
"Brother! What are you looking at?" Wen Xiuyi was furious and worried.
"Nothing." Tang Shao looked at the mess in the yard, "Get ready to clean up the mess."
He supported Tang Xi and left. Wen Xiuyi was inexplicably flustered, but Taoist Master Jin said next to her: "My fair lady, a gentleman is so bold!"
Wen Xiuyi became anxious and chased after her: "Senior brother! Wait for me."
…
Mingwei and Ji Xiaowu returned to the library and ate barbecue openly.
"You are indeed doing this." Ji Xiaowu said.
"What?" Mingwei turned over the pieces of meat intently.
"Rebellion! I've long thought you were weird, but that's what happened."
He picked up a piece of meat, threw it into his mouth and chewed: "Hmm, your barbecue skills are pretty good!"
"Of course." Mingwei, with quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed a piece of meat that was cooked just right, "Cousin doesn't seem to be afraid at all?"
"What are you afraid of?" Ji Xiaowu blinked, "What an exciting thing!"
Ming smiled: "As expected, my cousin is still interesting."
Ji Xiaowu ate all the remaining meat slices, and while drinking tea to relieve his tiredness, he said: "I kind of understand, cousin, who are you?"
"Oh, who is it?"
"Didn't Miss Ling say that you are one of the candidates for fortune telling?"
Ming smiled and chanted, listening to Ji Xiaowu's wild imagination: "I have figured out the case of the Imperial Master being falsely accused of murder before. Cousin, you must have a special identity. The one named Mingxiao is the one who brought people to Xuandu to watch
The person who stole the treasure, am I remembering it correctly?"
Mingwei nodded.
Ji Xiaowu was a direct disciple of Taoist Master Xicheng, and he had such a relationship with her, so those things were not hidden from him.
"This fortune teller has a unique inheritance, right? People with this title must bear corresponding responsibilities. Mingxiao, Miss Ling, and cousin you, all three of them are doing the same thing. The so-called choosing the future
Becoming the Lord of the World is a competition. You are the ones who choose one of the Fortune Masters. Whoever succeeds will inherit the title of Fortune Master. Am I right?"
Mingwei suppressed a smile and nodded seriously: "Cousin, you are so smart! That's it!"
Ji Xiaowu said proudly: "Of course, you just said so much, how could you not guess it. Ah, it is so exciting to choose the master of the world and help him ascend to the throne of God! The person you choose is the King of Yue? What if
If he becomes a queen, wouldn’t you become a queen? It’s a bit hard to imagine what it would be like for my cousin to be a queen!”
Mingwei asked: "Cousin, don't you think you should worry about another thing now?"
"What?"
"My origin has been exposed by Miss Ling, what do you think the Tang family will do with us?"
Ji Xiaowu patted his head: "That's right! What should we do? That Tang Shao may not believe her, but he certainly won't believe us! The safest way is to..."
He made a gesture.
Mingwei nodded: "So, our situation is more dangerous than before."
Although they were in a hostile state before, she lost all her skills and cured the old lady's illness. The Tang family did not want to do anything to her.
On the contrary, now, it is clear that their positions are inconsistent and they have plotted against Tang Xi. No matter how good-tempered the Tang family is, they cannot pretend that it never happened.
Ji Xiaowu looked around and lowered his voice: "How about we escape now? Before they can react."
Ming smiled and pointed downstairs: "I'm afraid it's too late."
Ji Xiaowu leaned on the railing and poked his head out to take a look.
Aren't they Tang Shao and Taoist Jin who came together?
Is this going to be a settlement of accounts later in the year?
Ji Xiaowu thought deeply: "Do you think it is useful for me to surrender now? After all, I am also your cousin, and I know your situation best. Can the Tang family treat me like a piece of shit for the sake of me providing information?
"
Mingwei said casually: "Then there is no hope for my cousin. No matter how much you understand me, can you understand me?"
Ji Xiaowu stared: "Are you surrendering yourself? Do you have any backbone?"
"Can one's integrity be as important as one's life?"
"That's true..."
The cousins were talking nonsense, but Tang Shao and Taoist Master Jin had already arrived.
Everything they said fell into the ears of these two people.
Taoist Master Jin came up, sat down on the ground, and said, "You two kids really know how to enjoy it. Come on, roast two pieces of meat for Mr. Taoist to eat first. When you feel good, I'll put in a good word for you."
Mingwei was very knowledgeable and immediately started grilling meat: "Yes!"
Ji Xiaowu, who was one step behind: "..."
Tang Shao didn't speak since he sat down.
He first looked at Mingwei from head to toe, and then quietly watched her grilling meat.
Not long after, the roasted meat slices were put into Taoist Master Jin's bowl, and another piece was given to him.
"Second Young Master, try it? The flavor of Northern Qi is different from that of Southern Chu."
Tang Shao remained silent, picked up the piece of barbecue and put it into his mouth.
The Second Young Master Tang has eaten a lot of delicacies, but he doesn't think they are earth-shatteringly delicious. But looking at his cooking skills, this Miss Ming Qi is a person who can make her life very good no matter where she is.
"Not bad, not bad," Taoist Master Jin gave a thumbs up, "The taste is quite good, but it's a pity that it lacks sauce, otherwise it would match better."
"Taoist master really understands it!" Mingwei flattered him lightly, "The conditions are limited, so I can only make do with it. If I go to Northern Qi one day, I can do my best to be a landlord."
"Hahahaha," Taoist Master Jin glanced at her with a smile, "Girls are very thoughtful. I'm not sure whether you can go to Beiqi!"
Mingwei said: "The Taoist Master is wrong. I think I will definitely be able to go back."
"Oh, how do you say it?"
Mingwei put down her chopsticks and said, "I cured the old lady's nightmare syndrome."
As soon as these words came out, Tang Shao raised his head and looked at her coldly.
Ming smiled kindly: "The second young master respects the old lady so much, I feel a little more confident."
"..." Tang Shao said calmly, "You are not the only one in the world who knows mystical arts. Taoist Master Jin's strength is no worse than yours."
Mingwei nodded: "This is natural, but does the Second Young Master dare to take this risk?"
She raised her head and looked at Tang Shao.
Their eyes met, and they saw murderous intent, vigilance and temptation in each other's eyes.
Tang Shao took it back as if nothing had happened and said: "Miss Ming Qi, based on your previous actions, you are not worthy of trust."
Ming smiled: "Trust? What do I need it for? As a native of Qi, even without Miss Ling's words, the second young master would not trust me, right? In this case, what difference does it make if I am more suspicious?
What? As long as I know that I have enough chips in my hand to prevent you from moving, that's enough." (To be continued)
