Chapter 1516 Fishing

The lights are dim.

Swaggering.

Before I knew it, it was already midnight.

It's not that Xiao Xun'er can't afford bright lights, nor that the Xiao family doesn't have bright lights, but that Xiao Xun'er likes to use this dim light to relax her tense nerves for many days. Even though she knows that this is a psychological effect, the so-called heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. She should face the cruelty of the world with clarity and fill her empty heart with tenderness. This is her favorite method. At least she can ensure her emotional stability.

Although it can only ensure emotional stability.

Except emotions.

Nothing else is guaranteed.

Take her body, for example.

The feeling that your internal organs are burning is truly devastating.

I wish I could scratch my heart and liver immediately.

Because a moment of pain is better than long suffering.

This is also the reason why Xiao Xun'er likes darkness.

Only in this dreamlike but not dreamy environment could she endure the burning pain that occurred every night in a relatively comfortable state.

At least she could look at the light.

Maybe it's the candlesticks on the table.

Spend a few hours quietly, or even empty your mind.

However, for Ling Ying, who had finally calmed down his fighting spirit, he didn't know the inside story. So, after adjusting his state, he changed from sitting cross-legged to kneeling on one knee, and whispered: "Miss, then...should this old slave continue to monitor?"

"Still monitoring... ahem... monitoring what?"

"They let you back on purpose."

"They have the means to cast this curse on you without your knowledge."

"I want to kill you. It's really... cough cough cough... it's really too easy."

"Think for yourself."

"Is this true?"

It was rare for Xiao Xun'er to speak soberly, but being sober also meant that she had lost some of her resistance to pain. Because of this, even though she tried to suppress the pain and slow down her tone, she only spoke a few words, which took nearly a minute. However, she still couldn't hide her pale face and she started coughing, and it sounded like she was going to cough out her lungs.

But it must be said that Xiao Xun'er's self-control when she is sober is top-notch.

Waved his hand.

He signaled Ling Ying not to be anxious or nervous.

After coughing for a while.

Only then did he weakly put down his hand.

Leaning back on the chair, while trying not to stir up the pain, he spoke slowly and with difficulty, "Don't worry about my body. This is the price I have to pay to contain the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame. It's normal that you don't know, because it was my father who helped me to calm this problem before... In short, no matter how much Dou Qi I refine during the day, the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame will devour it without a trace during this time period at night. Apart from anything else, at least I know that the rumor is not false: the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame is so powerful that it can even burn Dou Qi... It can be considered as finding joy in suffering... Okay, let's get back to the point. I'll take care of Xiao Chaoci's affairs. You just need to cooperate with me to put on a good show in the next period of time."

"I will never give up even if I die."

Ling Ying lowered his head, clasped his fists, and raised them upwards.

Although it was discovered by Lin Chaoci, it was an accident.

It was even more unexpected to get infected.

But all in all, this is not an excuse for failure.

It is said that when the lord is worried, the minister is humiliated; when the lord is humiliated, the minister

He, as a guard, failed to do a good job, and Xiao Xun'er, the eldest lady, helped him clean up the mess. It is reasonable for him to apologize.

To put it bluntly, the boss has taken the lead and taken the blame.

How can a younger brother who caused the trouble not share the blame?

Of course, Ling Ying's statement was just a statement, but Xiao Xun'er would not give all her trust to Ling Ying. This was the mentality of a qualified superior. So, after raising her hand and rubbing her brows, Xiao Xun'er gradually emptied her mind and followed her own plan. She said softly, "In a few days, the Xiao family will know that I am not in good health. Elder Ling, I hope that this news will be known to those who should know, such as the sons of Xiao Zhan, the head of the Xiao family, Xiao Ning, the grandson of the eldest elder of the Xiao family, the grandsons of the second elder of the Xiao family, the grandsons of the third elder of the Xiao family, and Xiao Chaoci... Don't use extreme means, it's best to be silent."

"Miss, you want to..."

Ling Ying was horrified and couldn't help but look up.

I wanted to confirm whether Xiao Xun'er was serious from her expression.

Because Xiao Xun'er had already explained it before.

In other words, the news is true.

Perhaps in a world without supernatural powers, in a peaceful society, and in a society with perfect laws, being sick is a noble thing. Although it is painful, it prevents you from being bullied by others. You can even enjoy some preferential treatment. For example, when moving tables in the company, no one dares to order a heart patient around. Or during the winter physical exercise at school, no one dares to blame a student with asthma for not participating in sports.

But in a world with extraordinary powers.

Unless it shows weakness to the enemy.

To put it bluntly, it is a deliberate trap and fishing enforcement.

Otherwise, even if it is fake, it will not be promoted.

Because it's not a glorious thing.

Everyone advocates health and strength.

Women like Lin Daiyu, who are weak and fragile, are often not popular.

Although you won't be excluded.

Therefore, Ling Ying suddenly felt a huge pressure. If it were not for the restriction of his identity, he would be a guard and had to and could only obey the orders of the eldest lady Xiao Xun'er. He would absolutely reject this approach now, because a son of a wealthy family should not sit in the hall. If Xiao Xun'er took this risk, if she succeeded, she might not necessarily gain any results, but if she failed, even if he had ten heads, they would not be enough to chop off!

It's really not a good idea to put yourself in danger!

However, it was just as Ling Ying thought!

He had no ability to stop Xiao Xun'er!

So, facing Xiao Xun'er's determined answer, he could only accept it.

Of course, Xiao Xun'er is not the kind of person who won't listen to other people's opinions.

So, let's take a step back.

This was also a way out for Ling Ying: "Although what Elder Ling said just now was too cautious, the principle that a son of a wealthy family should not sit in the hall is not wrong... How about this, I wonder if Elder Ling can use illusion?"

"Illusion?"

"Well...it depends on the strength of the sorcerer!"

"If it is below Dou Wang."

"Like Douling, Doushi... Oh, and those below the fourth-rank alchemist, because alchemists' soul power is generally stronger than that of cultivators at the same level... In short, I am sure that they will be trapped in it and unable to extricate themselves. Even if they see through it, it will be difficult to crack it."

"But it should be used on cultivators of Dou Wang or above."

"Or for fifth-grade alchemists and above."

"All kidding aside, it's just a little trick at best."

"After all, I am not an expert in this field."

"Compared with professionals, it is indeed unprofessional."

Ling Ying evaluated himself very objectively, because illusion really requires a lot of talent, even the ancient clans didn't study it much.

Who has done the most in-depth research?

That must be the Eldar.

One of the eight ancient clans.

Their Doudi ancestor became famous for his illusion techniques.

However, at that level, the definition of illusion is still too narrow.

This can be seen from the title of the Spirit Clan Dou Di.

Emperor Reimu!

The "Ling" here refers to the surname.

And dream refers to the big dream.

A big dream that is just a big dream.

The Emperor of Heaven means that Reimu Emperor of Heaven has absolute control over the dream world. He is the sky, at least the sky in the dream!

So, even though both the Soul Clan and the Spirit Clan study the soul.

The two sides took very different paths.

The Soul Clan is good at capturing people's souls.

The elves are good at entering dreams and killing souls.

The former can make you restless after death, the latter can make you brain dead while sleeping, and even proportionally replicate the injuries you suffered in your dreams.

Therefore, even if an alchemist has stronger soul power than a cultivator of the same realm, it is easy for him to fall into the trap when dealing with the spirit race. It can be said that if it were not for the spirit race's average physique and weak close combat, the spirit race would definitely become the most comprehensive and powerful of the eight ancient races.

So, although Ling Ying learned a few illusion techniques.

But these illusions are only enough for him to bully weak ones.

When facing those who are at a similar level to him, he uses it just for fun.

However, this is enough!

Enough for Xiao Xun'er to complete her plan!

……

……

……

"It's a little different from the image I had of the heroine!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"I can't say he's sinister, but he's very scheming."

“It’s not deliberate, but the tea art comes naturally.”

“It’s not about being cautious, but more about seeking stability.”

"So... is there something wrong with the Xiao Xun'er I know, or were these details omitted in the original novel's description?"

midnight.

Lin Chaoci was lying on the bed.

A small red bug squeezed in through the gap in the window with difficulty.

Spread your wings.

Dragging his round body.

It flew onto the table beside Lin Chaoci's bed.

Fall.

The conversation between Gu Xun'er and Ling Ying was transmitted to Lin Chaoci's ears in the form of insect language until all the words were spoken out.

“Not knowing doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.”

"Just as the way of heaven is one yin and one yang."

“People also have a light and a dark side.”

"If you think carefully about the description in the original novel, as well as the image in the comics and animation, it is also very reasonable... Her cold attitude towards Xiao Ning and others is a disguise, a character setting that is put on the surface. Her intimate behavior towards Xiao Yan is also a disguise, a double character setting that is put on the surface. But no matter how good her disguise is, she has never forgotten that she came to steal the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade... As for why Xiao Xun'er did not rob the clan leader's seal, that is, the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, when the Xiao family was defeated by the Yunlan Sect in the middle period, when Xiao Zhan gave the clan leader's seal, that is, the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade to Xiao Yan, her conscience may be the most correct answer to this question!"

"Just like the villain will eventually be defeated by the protagonist."

"Just like bad people will eventually be influenced by good people."

"Although Xiao Xun'er didn't have the heart to invite a Dou Zun or Dou Sheng from the Ancient Clan to examine Xiao Yan during the three years when he lost his Dou Qi, considering Xiao Yan's subsequent love for her at Canaan College... it's normal that she didn't have the heart to do it."

“Not every good person deserves to be let down.”

"Even if it's the Great Love Immortal Venerable."

“In the beginning, there were weaknesses.”

"Five and a half Yuanshi, the effect is stronger than the regret Gu."

"Seeing someone who has been fooled by me for more than two years and has been ordinary for more than three years, it is obvious that Che Ma likes me. For this reason, she went out to gain experience, experienced many life and death situations, and finally entered Canaan College in a dazzling manner. Later, we separated... I can take the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade with me when I leave, but between the mission and conscience, I think conscience is more important... Not to mention that even if the mission fails, the Ancient Clan can't do anything to her."

"Tsk... when you think about it this way, it makes sense."

"Of course."

“It’s just reasonable.”

"Whether this is true or not remains to be seen."

"But then again, the truth is not important!"

"It's better to break it with one punch than to plot all kinds of schemes!"

"If I can't break it, it just means my fist isn't big enough!"

"Why bother with that?"

"Not only will it hurt your mind, but it will also easily lead to your failure in Taoism."

"Are you right... gossip?"

In response to Lin Chaoci's dreamlike mumbling, the chubby, red poisonous insect named Bagua made a slight hissing sound.

Outsiders certainly won’t understand.

But Lin Chaoci could understand.

He laughed and changed the subject.

He muttered incoherently, "Well, let me see what tricks she can come up with. As long as she doesn't come to provoke me, I have no interest in interfering with her fishing. Compared to this, the matter of condensing the Dou Qi cyclone worries me more and is more worthy of my trouble... Breakthrough is not like anything else. In the end, stability is the top priority. Although Ling Ying, the Dou Huang, suffered a loss at my hands, after thinking about it, I still think that the probability of him being obedient depends on my deterrence of him. Even if he uses his life to exchange for my failure to break through, it's still my loss... It's better to go to Wudong to have a look. As one of the four major families of the Great Yan Dynasty, the Lin family, and a member of the Lin family clan, even if it's not a sure thing to break through within the Lin family, the risk is lower than staying in the Xiao family to break through. It's just right for me to go there to confirm the timeline and see if Lin Langtian defeats Lin Xiao..."

The voice became lower and lower.

Until it is barely noticeable.

He seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, but he also seemed to have no interest in talking.

The poisonous insect named Bagua rubbed its legs.

Spread your wings.

Dragging its round body, it flew to the window.

He squeezed out through the window with difficulty.

In this night with only the faint chirping of cicadas and croaking of frogs.

Silently continuing his mission of eavesdropping on other people's conversations.

……

……

……

The moon sets and the sun rises, day after day.

Unknowingly.

Two weeks have passed.

It can also be said to be half a month.

Xiao Xun'er was a very smart person, because even though she wanted to fish, she did not put the bait directly down, but spent a lot of time making a nest. In a subtle way, she told those who should know about her poor health, paving the way for her next fishing trip.

Of course.

Fishing is fishing.

There are other requirements for bait.

Things like strange fire certainly could not be mentioned, but the symptoms of qi deficiency and physical weakness could not be explained only by strange fire. The reason Xiao Xun'er gave was that the weakness and illness were caused by congenital deficiency, and it would take a long time to rely on fighting spirit to regulate his body.

The expression is very simple.

Play games normally with everyone.

Playing shuttlecock.

Or hopscotch.

There are also things like throwing sandbags and jumping rope.

It's a game that kids can play anyway.

During this process, it is reasonable for a child to show some discomfort, such as falling to the ground or breaking out in a cold sweat, and to tell other children about his or her symptoms while they are concerned.

In addition, show some envy appropriately, reveal the emotional expression of wanting to play games with everyone in a healthy manner, but the actual conditions do not allow it, and it should be obvious enough to be observed by those who are paying attention.

This nest was built naturally!

And the fish are attracted!

It’s not far from being hooked!
