Chapter 68 Telling Shen He a Story
Shen He frowned when she heard Xia You's words, she seemed to think of something, "I heard such a story from Master and me before, it is said that on the night of the fifteenth full moon, someone blows the magic conch, and the sea will be summoned. The sea tide in the eye opens the door to the bottom of the wave, and the Sea God Palace is there."

Xia You listened attentively, seeing Shen He suddenly stopped talking, he couldn't help but cast a urging look.

Shen He's heart beat faster, "I only know this, if you are interested in Sea God Palace, I can take you to find it."

Xia You stroked her chin and nodded, agreeing, "Then it's settled, you can take me to look for it after my three days are over."

"Okay," Shen He agreed softly, and she didn't leave after speaking, but came to another chair next to Xia You's counter and sat down.

"Just now I told you a story, now it's your turn to tell me a story." Shen He turned his head to look at Xia You and said softly.

Xia You blinked, the stories he knew were not from this world, I don't know if Shen He liked it or not.

"Then let me just talk about it casually. Once upon a time there was an orphan named Niulang, who lived with his sister-in-law Yige. His sister-in-law Ma Shi was mean and often abused him.

He was forced to separate from his family and feed himself by farming with an old cow.The old cow was very psychic. One day, the Weaver Girl and other fairies went down to play and bathed in the river. The old cow persuaded the Cowherd to steal the Weaver Girl's clothes, and the Weaver Girl became the Cowherd's wife.

After marriage, the men farmed and the women weaved, gave birth to a son and a daughter, and lived happily ever after.Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Heaven found out about this and sent the Queen Mother to escort Zhinu back to the heavenly court for trial.

Lao Niu couldn't bear the separation of their wives, so he broke the horns on his head and turned into a boat, letting the Cowherd chase after him with his children.Seeing that she was about to catch up with Zhinu, the Queen Mother suddenly pulled out the golden hairpin from her head, and drew a galaxy rolling in the sky.

Cowherd couldn't cross the river, so he could only watch and weep with Zhinu by the river.Their steadfast love moved magpies, and countless magpies flew to build a colorful bridge across the Milky Way with their bodies, so that Cowherd and Weaver Girl could meet on the Milky Way.The Queen Mother had no choice but to allow the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl to meet once a year on the Magpie Bridge on July [-]th. "Xia You thought that a girl of Shen He's age would like this kind of story, so she told it.

Seeing Shen He staring at him blankly after speaking, he was a little puzzled.

"Did I speak well?" Xia You asked curiously.

Shen He shook his head, "Xia You spoke very well, I like it very much."

"Then why are you staring at me?"

"I was wondering why the Cowherd stole Zhinu's clothes, and Zhinu married him."

Xia You was silent, he didn't understand this, so he guessed: "Maybe the Weaver Girl's clothes were trampled dirty by the cow, the Cowherd helped the Weaver Girl to wash the clothes, and the Weaver Girl decided to wash the Cowherd's clothes for the rest of her life in order to thank the Cowherd? And then they were together."

Shen He nodded suddenly, seeing her clear expression, Xia You always felt a little guilty. Is it really right to fool Shen He like this?It should be right, anyway, he told the story.

After finishing the story, Xia You looked at Shen He again, "Isn't Miss Shen He leaving after I finish telling the story?"

Shen He looked at Xia You and his tone was still very light, "Does Xia You really want me to go?"

Xia You shook her head, "I don't want to"

"Then I won't leave." Shen He said lightly.

Xia You was stunned, Shen He was beautiful and well-built, and his brain circuit was so clear, I don't know why Xia You felt that Shen He was very interesting.

just
"If you don't leave, then why are you still staring at me?" Xia You asked helplessly.

Shen He shook his head, "I don't know."

The atmosphere between the two fell into silence. Shen He kept staring at Xia You. Even facing Xia You, the Queen of Ice, he had never been so guilty. A drop of sweat dripped from his forehead.

Shen He also thoughtfully handed him a handkerchief, and Xia You had no choice but to wipe off his sweat in embarrassment.

While wiping him, he complained why the ghost hadn't come to buy things to break the awkward atmosphere.

Inadvertently, he caught a glimpse of the entrance of the Hall of Rebirth. A humanoid ice puppet with a figure similar to Shen He used a magic talisman to drive away all the ghosts who wanted to enter the store.

Silently copying Shen He's move, Xia You's mood improved again, as long as you give me skills, we will be good friends.

After another ten minutes, Shen He's stomach growled. She took out a handful of Qingxin and wanted to eat, but after seeing Xia You, she handed some over, "Do you want to eat?"

Xia You knew that Qingxin tasted a little bitter, so he shook his head and asked curiously, "Do you usually eat these?"

Shen He nodded, "Master once told me that ordinary things in the world would hinder my cultivation, so I only eat these, and I've gotten used to it for so many years, although now it only tastes bitter and astringent."

Hearing this, Xia You got up from where she was, and asked casually, "Then do you want to eat something else? Eat the food I usually eat."

Shen He blinked, and she and Xia You looked at each other for three seconds.

"think."

"It just so happens that it's time for me to eat, so I'll make one for you by the way, as long as you don't dislike my poor craftsmanship." Xia You walked into the kitchen after speaking, and Shen He followed.

In the kitchen are boxes of fresh vegetables and meats chilled on ice.

Xia You casually took a piece of cabbage and a piece of tofu with other ingredients, and easily made a pearl jade white jade soup.

Immediately afterwards, I made a dish of braised pork ribs and a dish of roasted eggplant with garlic, steamed rice, and it was done.

Following Xia You's example, Shen He held the bowl and ate the food on the plate. For some reason, he remembered the days when he was at home.

She shook her head to shake off those things that shouldn't be remembered, and at the same time praised Xia You's craftsmanship.

"good to eat."

"Eat more if it tastes good." Xia You said nonchalantly.

5 minutes later
Xia You looked at the empty rice cooker and plates and fell into deep thought.

"Shen He, do you know why slime can grow so big?" Xia You asked curiously.

Shen He shook her head. She didn't understand why Xia You asked this, but if Xia You wanted to know, she must find time to catch a few slimes and come back to study it.

At night, Wuwangpo became even darker. Thinking of Shen He's ice puppets guarding the outside, Xia You lay down on the chair in the hall and fell asleep peacefully.

Shen He helped Xia You wash away the unwashed dishes, walked out of the kitchen, looked at Xia You who was lying on the chair and fell asleep, she remembered the story Xia You told before and walked over.

The next day, Xia You looked suspiciously at the uniform he had disappeared from the Hall of Rebirth, and suddenly there was a smell of burning firewood from outside the hall. When he walked out, he saw Shen He was drying his clothes on the fire to roast.

"I'll help you wash your clothes." Shen He said lightly, she looked at Xia You expectantly, but what she expected didn't happen.

Xia You didn't want to marry her as in the story, it seems that there is something missing. It should be a talking cow.

Shen He guessed.

　Please don't leave
