The Millennium After Dying Young Chapter 31: Sneaky Tom Cat
After a while, the old Taoist came back to his senses, seeing that Xu Le had gone far away, he hurriedly chased after him.
"Master, how did you do it? Or, did you already know how to break the formation?" Just take it away.
Xu Le stopped, thought for a while, and said, "I don't know anything about formations, and I don't have any skills in breaking up those paper figurines."
"Huh?"
Xu Leyun said lightly: "When your cultivation reaches a certain height, you will understand."
The old Taoist nodded with a vague understanding.
Thinking about the scene where Xu Le broke paper figurines, a classic scene of a fight between an adult and a child in a certain film and television work inexplicably emerged in his mind.
The child is agile in stature, superb in skills, and has a demeanor of everyone.
But with an ordinary slap from the lord, he was easily sent flying.
As the saying goes, let you change in thousands of ways, and I will break it by myself.
One force down ten meetings!
It's so domineering!
Thinking about this, the old man looked at Xu Le completely differently.
Before he felt that Xu Le was very strong, if not, he would not have put down his old face to apprentice.
But now it seems that Xu Le's strength is far more than that.
The old Taoist was suddenly very grateful for his choice.
Seeing that Xu Le was about to leave again, the old man hurriedly said: "Master, didn't you say before that when doing things, you should use your brain first and then do it. Why did you just break the paper man? How can you find clues?"
"First, I see it. Even if you don't have a paper man, you can't find a clue. Second, I vent my anger on my daughter. What's the problem?"
The old way: "..."
What he said makes sense, but I don't know how to refute it!
After agreeing to go to the food city together tomorrow morning, the two broke up.
…
On the way back, Xu Le kept thinking about Taoist Long Zhen.
In this world, there actually exists a person who seems to have changed his life. This feeling is so mysterious that it has no bounds.
Thinking about it, before I knew it, I arrived at the door of the house.
Xu Le was about to open the door, when suddenly there were two soft "thump thump" sounds in the room.
It's very light, it sounds like someone is deliberately pressing their feet and walking.
Xu Le frowned.
Nan Xiaoxi left a long time ago, the night version of Xu Beibei has already finished work, and the daytime version of Xu Beibei doesn't have the habit of waking up at night.
So, who is walking in it now? !
At the same time as a series of thoughts flashed through his mind, Xu Le had already quietly escaped to the window, with half of his face pressed against the window sill, squinting his eyes and looking into the room.
Spiritual consciousness also enveloped the whole house in an instant.
This is the fighting habit he developed in his previous life, observing first and then fighting, it is always like this.
There is no light in the house, it is very dark.
But in Xu Le's eyes, it was clearer than during the day.
With a creak, Xu Beibei's door opened.
A small head came out from behind the door, looked around, and after confirming that no one was there, a small body tiptoed out.
Seeing this scene, Xu Le was astonished.
When it was confirmed that Xu Beibei had made the noise, he was already planning to open the door.
But now, he stepped back and continued to wait and see with a puzzled expression.
"I don't sleep in the middle of the night, sneaking out of the room, I want to see what she is doing."
In the house, Xu Beibei stood on tiptoe by the wall, muttering in annoyance.
The voice was too soft, Xu Le used his spiritual sense to look at the shape of his mouth, and barely guessed what she was saying: "Oh, I overslept, and I don't know if Dad is back. If I come back, it will be difficult!"
Xu Le was even more puzzled after hearing this, what is it that he has to hide from himself?
In addition, Xu Le also noticed that her daughter was wearing a cartoon pajamas, not a black ghost uniform. From this, it can be confirmed that she is the daytime version of Xu Beibei, and her confusion is even greater.
In my impression, the daughter of the daytime version has always been well-behaved, why did she behave so abnormally today?
Xu Le observed more carefully.
In the house, after struggling for a while, Xu Beibei finally took action.
I saw her stooping, her fists pressed to her chest, and she walked carefully on tiptoe towards Xu Le's room. She didn't wear shoes, and her smooth little feet stepped directly on the floor, making a slight "thump" sound.
That appearance is just like Tom Cat in the cartoon, clumsy, making people laugh and cry.
Xu Le noticed that the little guy seemed to be holding a red rope in his hand, and she held the other end in her palm, and she didn't know what was tied.
After Xu Beibei came outside Xu Le's room "unknowingly", she turned sideways and put her ear on it.
After a while, she retracted her head, and then touched her head in confusion, probably not sure if Xu Le was in the room.
After another round of struggle, Xu Beibei finally put his hand on the doorknob.
With a "click", the door opened, and Xu Beibei stuck her head in carefully.
Through his spiritual sense, Xu Le could clearly feel that the little guy's body was shaking very violently, probably because of the tense relationship.
But soon, when she confirmed that Xu Le was not in the room, this emotion dissipated immediately.
The little guy let out a low cry and ran in quickly.
Xu Le didn't hesitate, jumped directly over the roof, landed in his room silently, and then continued to watch through the window.
Everything happens almost silently.
At this moment, he has already determined that Xu Beibei must be trying to play some prank, but he must not show up, otherwise he will scare the child.
Xu Beibei came to Xu Le's bed, picked up the pillow, put down the red rope in his hand, and put the pillow back in place.
After doing this, she is ready to leave.
However, within two steps, she probably realized that something was wrong, and ran back quickly, pulled out the red rope that had just been placed under the pillow, and squeezed it back into her hand.
The little guy's movements are not fast, so Xu Le can easily see what is tied to the other end of the red rope.
That's a red amulet!
Xu Le froze suddenly.
Suddenly, he remembered the sentence that Xu Beibei asked himself without thinking.
"Papa, amulet, is it really useful?"
He suddenly became enlightened.
It turned out that she actually had such a plan!
"No wonder I want to take advantage of my inattention, this little thing..."
Xu Le couldn't laugh or cry.
At this moment, he really didn't know what to say in order to express his inner surprise and emotion.
In the house, Xu Beibei is still busy.
After a quick search in the closet, the little guy finally stuffed the amulet into the pocket of the shirt that Xu Le often wears.
Because of a little panic, when the little hand was drawn out of the pocket, it also brought out most of the red rope, so the little guy frantically stuffed it again, and it took a while to stuff all the rope in.
Then, she stood a few steps away, biting her fingers and looking left and right several times. After confirming that she would not be easily discovered, the little guy left contentedly.
There is a "click".
The door closes softly.
The house is quiet again.
Looking at the closed door, Xu Le felt a little complicated.
