You don't understand the fairy world

Chapter 14 Conspiracy and calculation are not a thing (2)
Huaiying couldn't tell him clearly for a while, so he had to prevaricate: "Then elder brother will look around on the boat. If you see him, take him to your cabin first. By the way, someone fell into the water on the boat." ?”

Xiao Zidan shook his head and said, "I don't know either." Both he and Mo Qin went back to the cabin to change their clothes, and when they got out, they didn't see many people, let alone who or how many people fell into the water.

Suddenly there was a big wave on the lake, Xiao Zidan was hit by the aftermath of the water wave, although he managed to stabilize his body, his whole body was drenched.

Huaiying didn't care about anything else, she stretched out her hand and dragged him into the cabin, saying: "Brother, you should hide in the house for a while, and then go out when the wind and waves outside calm down."

Huan Niang also said: "Your Majesty is in a hurry, Mr. Xiao doesn't have to be restrained. Besides, you brothers and sisters saved me just now, and I didn't even have time to thank you."

Xiao Zidan hurriedly said: "Miss Wu, you're welcome, I didn't do anything." The one who saved her was Huaiying, and the one who covered her with a cloak was Moqin. At that moment, his eyes were all about his own sister, I really didn't pay so much attention to Wu Huanniang.

Huan Niang was still waiting to say a few more polite words, but the cruise ship suddenly shook violently again, she immediately swallowed all her words, grabbed the window nervously, and did not dare to make a sound again.

Fortunately, the Xiao family's ship was heavy and strong, and it was not overturned after being shaken for a long time.But the other boats on the lake were not so lucky. Huaiying watched the two boats disappear into the rolling waves through the window.Under such a storm, how many people can be lucky enough to survive?

It turns out that not all goblins are as innocent and harmless as Shuangxi, they can kill countless people casually, Huaiying suddenly understood Long Xining's barbecue behavior, she shouldn't be angry with him that day.

But now, Huaiying doesn't even know if she still has the chance to apologize to Long Xining.

After tossing and tossing for half an hour, the lake surface returned to calm.The sky had completely darkened, and Xiao Zitong greeted the servants on the boat with a livid face to light the lanterns, and while counting the passengers on the boat, he helped salvage people—or corpses—in the lake.

All this happened too fast and too suddenly. Xiao Zitong was just a playful and ignorant young master before. He had never encountered such a blow, but he had to cheer up immediately and take care of everything after the disaster.But the deadliest blow followed. Among the eight missing people on board, there were Xiao Yueying and Long Xining's names.

One is his direct sister, and the other is the younger brother of the Master of the State Teacher. For a moment, he wished that the person who fell into the water was himself.But he couldn't fall down. Before the Xiao family got the news and rushed over, he had to take all the responsibilities.

Xiao Zidan did not stay with Huaiying, he and Mo Qin went to help Xiao Zitong together.

Huan Niang didn't dare to go back to her room, but stayed in Huaiying's cabin.

Hearing that both Xiao Yueying and Long Xining had disappeared, Huan Niang's face was very ugly.Although she had already somewhat realized that Xiao Yueying had something to do with her falling into the water, and even secretly felt resentful, but when she heard that Xiao Yueying had disappeared, she realized that she was not feeling well.

Candles were burning in the cabin, and the bean-sized candle trembled slightly. Huaiying's face was flickering in and out of the trembling candlelight, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

Huan Niang didn't know how to comfort her, such a big storm, such a deep lake, not to mention that Long Xining was still a three-year-old child.

"Wulang...he should be alive." Huaiying spoke first, with a firm tone, as if he had seen Long Xining with his own eyes, "He is a good swimmer, better than me. Do you know that, In fact, children can swim when they are just born, and Goro..."

She was rambling on, not knowing whether she wanted to convince Huan Niang or herself.

Long Xining didn't have any mana at all, so what would he use to fight that monster?Did Jiang Xia find him?Who will win this battle in the end...

No sleep for one night.

The next day, just after dawn, the cruise ship docked.The pier was full of people, and when they saw the Xiao family's boat approaching, they rushed in this direction in a hurry.

The person who narrowly escaped death and was rescued by Xiao's family last night also went ashore, and cried when he saw his relatives ashore.There were also those who waited for a long time, and finally found only the corpse, shouting loudly.The scene is so tragic and desolate that people dare not take a second look.

Xiao Zitong arranged for everyone to stay in the city for the time being, while he led his servants back to the lake to find them.Xiao Zidan was worried about Long Xining, so naturally he refused to stay, and after exhorting Huaiying a few words, he followed.As for Mo Qin, he would not stay on the shore alone.

However, although they went back and forth in the lake again and again, they still failed to bring good news.The longer the time, the slimmer the chance of survival for those who were not found, especially Xiao Yueying.

As for Long Xining, Huaiying felt more at ease.Although he has lost his mana, he is still His Highness the Dragon King, and there may be other means to save his life.

However, until Huaiying returned to Youting Town, there was no news of them, not even Fanjianglong.

Afterwards, Xiao Zidan asked Huaiying about Long Xining, but Huaiying kept his mouth shut all the time: "Since he is gone, why do you need to ask so many more questions. It's not good to know more."

Xiao Zidan finally sighed and left.

Maybe Long Xining has returned to the East China Sea!Huaiying comforted herself silently.

Mr. Xiao and Mo Qin returned to the capital, but Xiao Zitong stayed. In just a few days, he seemed to be a different person, silent and depressed.

"Even if it's because of Yueying." Xiao Zitong said in a low mood, "In the past, she always complained that I didn't study. We quarreled several times over this matter, and I always complained that she took too much control. Now, no one wants to take care of her. me."

"By the way," Xiao Zitong suddenly thought of something, "You still remember Dong Cheng who came back with my father, that white-eyed wolf with eyes on the top of his head."

Dong Cheng is the nephew of Master Xiao's concubine Dong Shi, 22 years old this year, with the status of a scholar, it is said that he came here for the first name Jie Yuan this time for the exam.

It's just that although Dong Cheng's knowledge is good, he is very arrogant and arrogant. He disdains to walk with Xiao Zitong, and he has quite a few criticisms about Xiao's family.

This made Xiao Zitong very uncomfortable, and couldn't help complaining a few words: "You say he wants to be really pure, so don't take money from our Xiao family. He puts on airs bigger than me, and the servants around him have two One, what is used for food, what is not spent on our family's money, this kind of white-eyed wolf..."

Xiao Zidan shook his head and said with a smile: "Even if this person becomes an official in the future, he will not last long. If you don't like him, just stay away from him."

Xiao Zitong snorted and said, "Now I avoid as much as I can. Not only do I not meet him, but I also stay far away from his two servants. But my father doesn't believe me at all, and treats that white-eyed wolf as his own son." generally."

"Uncle Xiao doesn't have any differences in his heart. The more he values ​​you, the stricter he will be to you. If it's someone else, he won't care." Xiao Zidan persuaded him patiently.

But Xiao Zitong couldn't listen, and said: "I don't care, this time in the autumn test, you must never let him win the prize. It really made him the first name, will there still be a place for me in the Xiao family?"

Xiao Zidan said dumbfoundedly: "You think Jieyuan is so easy to get. In Jiangnan, poetry and books are handed down to the country, and the Kedi is prosperous. There are hundreds of students in the whole prefecture. Everyone is full of talents and learning. It is not easy to win the exam. .Besides, Dong Cheng's article is full of flowers and flowers, but it is not brilliant. Whether he can win the exam is in between."

Only then did Xiao Zitong cheer up, and he clapped his hands vigorously and said, "After a long time of trouble, it turned out that he was bragging about himself, and I thought he had a lot of abilities. It's better to fail in this subject, and see if he dares to stand in front of me in the future." Putting on airs."

As soon as he was happy, he simply refused to go back: "I'll be staying at your house for a few days, so I don't have to be angry with that white-eyed wolf when I go back. Let me tell you, if he really fails the exam, when he returns to the capital, he will be sure." They can find all kinds of excuses to push on me."

Xiao Zidan shook his head helplessly, and said nothing more.

The first autumn test was held on the eighth day of September. The test was on Tie Jing and Dayi, and the test room was set in Fucheng.Fucheng is not far from Youting Town, and it can be reached in an hour and a half by horse-drawn carriage, but Father Xiao still rented a small yard in the city in advance, and led his family to Fucheng to live there.Xiao Zitong also followed, saying that he was going to watch the fun.

The yard that Father Xiao rented was not big, but the location was excellent, only a quarter of an hour away from the Gongyuan.As for Dong Cheng, I heard that Xiao's family also found a good place for him to escape the hustle and bustle, but none of them were interested in asking where it was.On the eighth day of September, the whole family got up just after dawn.After breakfast, Xiao Zidan changed into his unlined clothes, packed the stationery and food he had prepared in advance, and went out calmly.

There was already a long queue at the gate of the Gongyuan, and the guards were searching one by one to make sure that the students did not bring in fraud.

The search not only carefully inspected the luggage carried by the students, but also inspected the clothes inch by inch for interlayers, until the hair, shoes, and the whole body were carefully inspected before letting people in——

They arrived quite early, and after waiting for a quarter of an hour Xiao Zidan successfully entered the Gongyuan.

"Okay, let's go back first." Father Xiao said, "In the morning, we will post the scriptures, and in the afternoon, we will take the righteousness exam. If you don't talk about it, you won't be able to come out until the end of the day. Let's come and wait in the afternoon."

After walking a few steps, Xiao Zitong stopped suddenly, bumped Huaiying with his elbow, and whispered: "The white-eyed wolf is here too. Well, it's the black and thin short man."

Huaiying heard him talk about Dong Cheng's "white-eyed wolf" many times, and immediately looked over curiously.Seeing that there was indeed a short, black and thin man in the team, I wondered if he had heard too many bad things about Dong Cheng, and immediately felt that this person was definitely not a kind person.

His head was raised high, and there was an indescribable feeling between his brows and eyes, not arrogance, but extreme inferiority complex.

Huaiying turned her head and said in a low voice: "Look at what he is doing, let's go back quickly."

When approaching the leased yard, Huaiying saw a guy sitting at the entrance of the alley from a distance.He was wearing a small, old-fashioned sauce-colored gown, holding a water jug ​​in his hand, looking around boredly.

Huaiying was stunned and stopped.Father Xiao didn't understand, so he said, "What's the matter, Huaiying, why don't you leave?"

"Then...there...Goro..." Huaiying felt her throat was so dry, she quickly swallowed her saliva, spread her legs and ran forward.Long Xining also noticed her, and immediately stood up: "Xiao Huaiying, why did you come back so late."

"It's Wulang!" Xiao Zitong was surprised and happy, running faster than Huaiying, he rushed over and hugged Long Xining like a tornado, and there was some crying in his voice, "It's great that you are still alive, Wulang Already!"

"You...you take it easy..." Long Xining tried to break away awkwardly, but Xiao Zitong was very excited, and his arms were tightly bound.It's not that I can't break free, but what if my strength is useless and Xiao Zitong's arm is broken...

Finally, Long Xi still didn't exert his strength.

"It's good that you're back." Huaiying wiped her face, but there was still some water in her eyes after all, "I thought... well, it's good that you're back."

She couldn't sleep well these days, and she would have nightmares when she closed her eyes at night. Although she told herself countless times that Long Xining would be safe, only when she saw it with her own eyes could she feel at ease.

Father Xiao also showed a gratified expression: "Wu Lang scared us to death this time, by the way, how did you escape, why haven't you come back these days?"

Since Goro is still alive, is Xiao Yueying also...but Xiao Zitong dare not ask.

Long Xining showed a solemn expression: "Jiang Xia saved me." He couldn't help looking at the water jar in his hand while speaking, and his voice became lower and lower, "He sent me ashore, so I don't know where to go .”

Huaiying noticed his gaze and leaned over to look at the water jar.There is a white "little loach" in the water urn-it is probably a loach, it looks a bit like it, and it has a beard.However, what did Long Xining come back with a loach for no reason?Could it be——he is pretending to be Fanjiang Longjiangxia? !
Long Xining seemed to see what was going on in her mind, and nodded quietly.Huaiying hurriedly took over the water urn containing Fanjianglong, and Long Xining's attitude towards Fanjianglong suddenly changed, so what he just said was true-it was Fanjianglong who saved him.

"How do you know we live here? Have you eaten well in the past few days? You seem to have lost weight..."

"I went back to Youting Town, and Shuangxi told me that you were in the city, so I came here." He glanced at Xiao Zitong, who had been hesitant to speak but stopped staring at him, and said in a low voice, "I haven't seen you before." Xiao Yueying."

Xiao Zitong's eyes suddenly dimmed.

Back in the courtyard where Father Xiao rented, Long Xining took a shower first, changed into the little gown he stole from somewhere, and sat in the kitchen waiting for food.Father Xiao and Xiao Zitong were not in the house, so Huaiying couldn't help but ask about what happened on the boat that day.

"Originally, I wanted to show that poisonous woman a little color, but before I could do anything, a water demon came." Long Xining said, "It was aimed at me. Fan Jianglong said that there was no demon in Chenghu before. I don't know where such a monster came from. There is something wrong with this, I have already sent a letter to the third brother, and he asked me to go to the capital."

He pouted his lips, very unhappy: "I've never been so aggrieved, if Fan Jianglong hadn't rescued me, I'm afraid even the inner alchemy would have been taken away by that monster right now."

He first lost his mana, and then was attacked by a monster. If he said there was no conspiracy, he would believe it.

"Won't your third brother come to pick you up? What if there are other monsters coming to you? Also, didn't you say that your third brother is not very capable, can he protect you? Or, go to Find your father." No matter what, the old Dragon King sounds reliable.

Long Xining shook his head stubbornly: "I don't want it." He said awkwardly, "I quarreled with the old man."

"Ah?" Huaiying was stunned for a moment, "It's not surprising at all to quarrel with my parents, no one has ever quarreled. This is life and death..."

Long Xining's attitude was very firm: "My third brother asked Qingniao to send a talisman, and now ordinary monsters can't do anything to me. When I recover my mana, they won't even dare to get close."

But how long will it take for his mana to recover?Huaiying didn't ask, but worried.
