Chapter 581: Naughty Child's Temperament
On the narrow path, three people blocked the way and stopped a carriage. The owners of the carriage, a man and a woman, were also strange people. The man was wearing white clothes, and the woman was wearing a Taoist robe and holding a whisk. The woman was meditating with her eyes closed, as if she was cultivating her spirit, while the man was sleeping on his side. There was little communication on the road until three people in black jumped out of the grass by the roadside, and the horse was frightened and screamed, waking up the two and opening their eyes.
The goldfish was huge, but it was in the bucket. It also poked its head out to observe the situation outside. It was interesting to say that in terms of lifespan, the goldfish was probably considered an "old man". Whether it was Li Changxiao or Mu Qin, they were no different from children in front of it. But in terms of experience, the goldfish was shallow. What it had known and seen in its life was just in that lake.
How could it know that if it leaves the quiet lake, the outside world will come one after another and it will be overwhelmed. On the way, Li Changxiao mentioned to him that he wanted to persuade the old goldfish to return to the old lake and enjoy his old age in peace. Looking at the world, how many people want to give up this life of cause and effect, the trivialities of the world, and enjoy the life of "a lake", but the goldfish is not good, and it has to jump out by itself.
The goldfish refused and insisted on going into the sea. He said that if he went into the sea he would become a dragon and could roam the world proudly. At that time he would be free and at ease. But the lake, where he had been since he could remember, was not a peaceful home for him but a narrow and cramped cage.
Hearing this, Li Changxiao stopped trying to persuade him. So far, the journey had been relatively peaceful. Jinyu stuck his head out and saw three men in black blocking the way. They seemed to be here with ill intentions, so he asked Li Changxiao, "What are they going to do?"
Li Changxiao rolled up his sleeves, held the goldfish's head, and pushed it back into the bucket with force. He was disrespectful to his elders. Knowing that the person coming was not a good person, he still stuck his head out to check, hoping to create chaos in the world.
The goldfish made a "gurgling" sound like it was drowning, and bubbles of all sizes floated to the surface one after another. He was about to curse, but suddenly he remembered that he was a fish and was not afraid of drowning, so he stopped struggling. Li Changxiao pulled his hand out of the bucket and casually wiped the water stains on his white clothes.
The goldfish retaliated deliberately by spitting out a stream of water from its mouth. Li Changxiao had anticipated this and dodged lightly by turning sideways. The stream of water brushed past him. The goldfish was very angry and spit out several times. Li Changxiao was like a swimming dragon, flipping and dodging, and making laughs from time to time.
After playing like this for a while, he felt a chill on his back, and a fist with a bit of murderous aura came and hit his shoulder firmly. Mu Qin was soaked and full of resentment. The carriage was so small that most of the water that Li Changxiao avoided naturally fell on Mu Qin.
If Mu Qin wanted to hide, it would be easy, but because of her face or pride, she would rather take it all than dodge like Li Changxiao. Seeing that if she didn't take action, it would be endless, so she thought to herself, "You still have the mind to mess around when facing a powerful enemy." Then she said, "Don't mess around."
After a pause, he turned to look at the goldfish, "And you."
After taking care of the "internal affairs", Mu Qin got off the carriage and confronted the three people. At this time, she heard faint noises of fighting coming from inside the carriage. Her cold face could no longer be maintained, and she turned into a gnashing of teeth and a helpless expression.
He just turned his head to look at the three people, and the coldness was once again radiating, which was bone-chilling and freezing. Goldfish was innocent by nature, and had a "morning grumpiness" and a character like an old naughty boy. Li Changxiao could play a little with everyone he met, so when he was with goldfish, he would often show a little bit of naughty character.
Seeing that the goldfish was not convinced, he reached into the bucket, pulled the goldfish out, and bullied the goldfish because it had no hands. He punched it left and right, asking it if it was convinced.
"Old bastard! Old bastard!" Goldfish cursed. The reason why it was "old bastard" was because Goldfish was not good at cursing. In his early years, he listened to Li Xundao and Mu Laozu discussing Taoism. Li Xundao had no respect for Mu Laozu and often called him "old bastard". Goldfish learned this name and used it inappropriately at this moment.
After beating for a long time, the goldfish finally gave in. In fact, Li Changxiao was very measured in his attack. The goldfish gave in because he could not defeat him, not because he was afraid of Li Changxiao. Throwing the goldfish back into the bucket, Li Changxiao ran out of the carriage to help. He asked, "What's the situation? What's the origin?"
Mu Qin said: "We just talked a little bit, and the situation is not good. The other party is a cultivator. He suspects that we have the method to enter the Great Heaven Realm, so he came to ask for it."
"Asking for it?" Li Chang laughed and said, "I'm afraid they are trying to rob it. They probably have guessed that the goldfish is the key to entering the Great Heaven Realm."
"What should I do?" Mu Qin frowned, unwilling to take action. First of all, the goldfish was similar to the lake spirit, it was not immortal, if she really took action and affected it, it would definitely be more trouble than it gained.
"I have a solution. You take the goldfish away first, and I'll talk to them." Li Changxiao stretched lazily.
Mu Qin frowned, looked up and down, then looked at the three people in the distance, and said calmly: "Not appropriate."
"Worried about me?" Li Chang smiled. Mu Qin was annoyed, "You just need to help me cross the bridge of inquiry, you don't need to do anything else."
"You go first." Li Changxiao smiled nonchalantly, "I know those people. We have some friendship. I can just talk to them."
Mu Qinren was worried, but she agreed to let Li Changxiao try. She knew that she was far inferior to Li Changxiao in terms of verbal skills. If he negotiated, he might be able to turn the enemy into a friend. If it didn't work, she would use some spiritual energy to support him, so that Li Changxiao would not be injured.
Mu Qin got on the carriage and passed by the three men. Seeing this, the three men wanted to reach out to stop her, but Li Changxiao quickly stepped forward, opened his big hands, and grabbed the shoulders of the three men at once, with a smile on his face as if he were meeting friends again.
The three men's actions to intercept were suddenly slowed down by this episode, and because Li Changxiao's hands were on their shoulders, their attention was instantly focused on him.
For a moment, intercepting the carriage was not the top priority. Li Changxiao raised his lips and said, "Let's go over and have a chat?"
The three of them sneered and nodded, and the four of them walked towards the grove with their arms around each other's shoulders and with ill intentions. Mu Qin walked into the carriage, opened the curtain at the back, and locked her eyes on the four people who were walking somewhere else.
"Are you looking at your sweetheart?" The goldfish poked its head out with a teasing look on its face.
Mu Qin glared at it and continued to observe. The goldfish was even more excited when it saw that it had gained the upper hand. It spoke in rapid succession, "Tsk tsk tsk, you didn't even blink. Xiaoqing, Xiaolong, and Xiaojiu also looked at me like this before. I felt deep love in that look. What a pity... a fish that died of old age will end up as nothing but dust."
"If you like someone, you should pursue her boldly. To tell you the truth, I am the most senior person in the lake. When fish and shrimp see me, they try to hide from me. It's boring to stay with me. When I reach the sea and turn into a dragon, I will definitely find a female fish. Tsk tsk tsk tsk."
"You're not bad looking, and that boy is pretty handsome too. Not to mention, he's pretty... Gurgle Gurgle..."
Mu Qin slowly rolled up her sleeves, put them on the fish's head, and pushed it into the water. With a hint of embarrassment in her indifference, she spat in a low voice and continued to follow the trail.
"If you keep talking nonsense and distract me, I will tear your head off."
