Chapter 101 - Hashe City
Edited by Molly
The next few days were calm.
They headed all the way north into Northern Xia.
Xiao Xuan, who was not very serious, always called him “beauty” and occasionally flirted with him, but didn’t actually do it.
——The only mistake was that he liked to stare at both of them.
Ling Fengxiao asked, “Your Highness, why do you always look at us?”
Xiao Xuan raised his eyebrows and curled his lips and said with a smile: “One beauty is enough to be pleasing to the eye, but two beauties are even more comfortable.”
After that, he glanced at the ‘Beauty’s Grace’ on the table, his eyes seemed to be distressed, “Just, why does this Beauty’s Grace not know what is good or bad?”
Lin Shu: “......”
This beautiful plant was originally tall and straight, like a beautiful antler, but at this time, the end of the horn was sinking a little. Anyone with eyes could tell that this was wilting.
Xiao Xuan said, “It’s a wonder that a peerless beauty is on the side, but it’s faint. Is it because the two girls don’t care for it enough?”
Enough, so enough, I have to care about it.
Lin Shu now only hopes that it would hold on until they come to the capital of the Northern Xia Dynasty and get the blood poison sample.
——Then he and Ling Fengxiao could immediately slip away and let Xiao Xuan go to find another beauty. Maybe they can make up for it.
Xiao Xuan continued: “Two beauties, will you touch it again.”
Lin Shu could only stretch out his right hand and use his fingertips to reach out to the smallest branch.
When it was about to meet his fingers, the antler’s horn retreated in the opposite direction, which was hard to be seen by the naked eye.
It was not the first time that Lin Shu had seen this situation. Beauty’s Grace dislikes men. It can be said that it dislikes men thoroughly.
His fingertips continued to move forward.
The antlers continued to retreat.
The next moment, as if stiff, it stopped moving.
——Ling Fengxiao’s fingertips were approaching from the opposite direction.
Lin Shu thought to himself, it was indeed a spiritual plant, and with the Big Miss it became obedient.
He gently touched the end of the antler with his fingertips.
Ling Fengxiao also touched, just right on his fingertips.
After a touch, the whole plant seemed to be haggard again.
Lin Shu expressed his sincere guilt for it.
Xiao Xuan came over to check, and sighed: “Is it sick?”
Yes, it is sick.
It is allergic to men.
Xiao Xuan continued to sigh, “Can’t we just let fate decide?”
After people bought something worth four million of gold, they wouldn’t care too much about something worth 100,000 gold, so after Xiao Xuan sighed, there was no other expression, which made Lin Shu let out a sigh of relief.
After a while, Xiao Xuan went out of the carriage to take a breather.
Ling Fengxiao leaned on the couch, looking a little tired. She patted the pillow beside her and motioned to Lin Shu: “Come to sleep.”
It was cold in the north, and it was near winter at this time. There was a hailstone last night, and now it has turned into cold rain. Big Miss’s bones would be uncomfortable on a rainy day.
Lin Shu poured a cup of hot water for the Big Miss.
The Big Miss took a few sips from the cup, put it on the table, and said to Lin Shu, “Hug.”
Lin Shu went to hold him.
After a while, the Big Miss fell asleep.
Lin Shu knew that the Big Miss had not slept well since last night’s hailstorm.
He pulled away a certain arm that was holding his waist, sat up, pressed the quilt corner for the Big Miss, and lit the hand warmer in the carriage, stuffed it into the quilt, and pushed it unto the Big Miss’s stomach.
After doing this, he stared at the Beauty’s Grace on the table.
——Then, he moved the table to the bedside of Ling Fengxiao, so that it could get more of the aura of the Big Miss and make up for his own influence.
After that, he laid down and began to take a nap.
——But he hadn’t fallen asleep completely. Maybe he slept too much at night.
Half asleep and half awake, he didn’t know how long it had passed, he heard that the Big Miss seemed to wake up, and there was some movement.
First, he heard the sound of something being pushed, which seemed to be the jade table.
Then, the voice of the Big Miss sounded, very low and light, as if she didn’t want to disturb him.
“Don’t you want to blossom?”
Lin Shu: “...”
The Big Miss seemed to be questioning Beauty’s Grace.
“Am I not beautiful?” The Big Miss said coldly, “Since we are beautiful, what else do you want?”
Lin Shu listened quietly.
“If you don’t want to die, you will blossom. If you won’t blossom by tomorrow, I’ll touch you from morning till night and kill you. ”
After the intimidation, the Big Miss laid down, hugged him from behind, and continued to sleep.
Soon, her breathing became even longer, and she seemed to sleep peacefully.
Lin Shu, on the other hand, quietly closed his eyes, silently reciting the mental method.
The Sword Pavilion’s mental method had been running in his body all the time in his previous life. After coming into this world, he had always recited it, and he had become so familiar with it, but unfortunately he can’t use it.
But when he thought that if he wanted to use it, he had to perform dual cultivation with the Big Miss first to restore his meridians, he became a little nervous.
Life is not easy, and difficulties always follow one after another like this, Lin Shu sighed.
A calm afternoon and evening passed, and the next morning, Lin Shu was awakened by Xiao Xuan’s voice.
“It blossomed!”
Lin Shu opened his eyes, sat up and looked at the jade table.
There was a difference between men and women. To avoid suspicion, at night, they put the jade table in the middle of the large couch, separating two sides, Ling Fengxiao and him sleeping on one side, and Xiao Xuan sleeping on the other side alone.
Although, himself and the Big Miss were not actually the same sex.
However, Lin Shu thought he and Ling Fengxiao were serious people who have a marriage contract, and there was no need to avoid suspicion, so it’s not considered that she’s a frivolous lady.
Ling Fengxiao was also looking at the jade table.
Lin Shu looked over and was surprised to find that several small, petal-like objects had grown on the forked antlers.
Is it blossoming?
Xiao Xuan clapped his hands and praised: “Two beauties, your looks are really effective.”
Lin Shu looked at the Beauty’s Grace.
The branches were still drooping, the petals looked listless, and the whole antler seemed to be thin. Instead, it was like squeezing out a few flowers on the verge of death.
Was the threat from the Big Miss really effective?
But why did the Big Miss threaten it like that?
Couldn’t she just hold it in her arms for a few days?
Lin Shu couldn’t figure it out.
But as long as it blooms, it’s always good.
Xiao Xuan said: “Finally, the flowers bloomed just when I entered the city. I think it will be possible to bear fruit before the Sorcerer’s Gathering in a few days.”
After that, he opened the front curtain and said, “Please look at the outside, beauties, the city at the front is Hashe City.”
Hashe, the Royal Capital City of Northern Xia.
Lin Shu looked out, but saw the boundless horizon mountain, a tall black city stood tall, and the walls of the city rose up with spikes of unknown material, shining coldly in the thin sunlight, like a monster tusk of a huge beast.
There was a group of soldiers in black armor at the gate of the city. Wuqi showed a token, and the soldiers let them pass immediately.
The city was quite prosperous.
Many of the streets, buildings and mansions were made of large black irregular stone bricks with flat roofs, which were quite different from the style of the Southern Xia Dynasty, with some kind of stout simplicity.
The stone bricks were often painted with things that seemed to be incantations, and the wine flags and banners on the roadside were all black, embroidered with some frantic white or purple patterns —— the clothes of pedestrians on the road were mostly like this, which made the atmosphere of the whole city mysterious and dangerous.
In particular, among the pedestrians, there were occasionally Northern Xia sorcerers with big black robes and tattoos on their faces, which added to the mystery.
The hustle and bustle of voices, sometimes mixed with the Jie tone, but the overall language was not difficult to understand.
The carriage went all the way to a secluded but magnificent place.
“This is the royal residence outside the palace. These days, the two girls will have a rest here – I’m here, too.” Xiao Xuan was very dissolute with a smile. “The two beauties and sisters are very affectionate. They might as well live together in the west side room. If you want to go out and visit your relatives, no one will stop you. You just need to raise the Beauty’s Grace until it bears fruit.”
Ling Fengxiao said: “Thank you, your highness.”
——Then someone led them into the door and went to the west courtyard to have a rest.
After entering the room, the servant who led the way also retired.
No one was watching and no one was looking after them. Xiao Xuan also promised that they could go out at will.
In other words, they can immediately find out if a wizard has developed a contagious blood poison, and they could even go to the Sorcerer’s Gathering to see it smoothly.
Things were going really well.
Lin Shu was a little suspicious.
He asked, “Is there no one watching us?”
Ling Fengxiao picked up a sword that was mounted as decoration in the room, stroked the blade with her fingers, and said faintly, “Xiao Xuan is looking forward to our work. How can he send someone to watch us?”
Lin Shu: “Huh?”
Big Miss, what are you talking about? I don’t understand.
Ling Fengxiao watched him smile, also smiling helplessly and lovingly, and even softened her voice: “Has he ever questioned our origin and name?”
“No.”
“Has he ever asked where our family is in Hashe City, and what do they do at home?”
“No.”
“That’s it. The mermaid and dragon sold in the night market were mixed, unless he has a problem with his head, he will be defenseless against us.”
Lin Shu: “Then...?”
Along the way, Xiao Xuan was really defenseless and regarded them as trustworthy people.
Ling Fengxiao said, “As the prince of the Northern Xia Dynasty, Xiao Xuan may be the prince of the Northern Xia Dynasty, but he has to go all the way to the black market to buy the treasure for the Great Wizard. It can be seen that the Great Wizard has more power than the royal family.”
Lin Shu: “Yeah.”
“Therefore, Xiao Xuan didn’t want to see the wizard. Along the way, we didn’t do anything suspicious to him, so he knew that we didn’t mean to do anything to him. Even if we really have bad intentions, we are not trying to harm him, but we are going to block up the great witch. He is happy to see it come true, and will even provide convenience.”
Lin Shu once again suspected that his brain circuits were simpler than those of these people.
