Chapter 45.1
On the next day, Shen Li was not in a hurry to go to the place called Xiyuan arranged by the Emperor of Heaven, and she even resisted a little bit, so she wandered around the heavenly realm
It would be pleasant if were not for the way everyone was looking at her... Carefully scrutinizing, it wasn’t just one or two, everyone looked at her like this, which really made Shen Li feel unbearable .
She wasn’t angry or feeling wronged, she was just annoyed . If they really didn’t like her, just lift a knife and slash, why this passive-aggressive behavior?
Shen Li couldn’t stand it at last . Instead of being watched like this, she might as well go to Xiyuan and be embarrassed with Xing Zhi .
What surprised Shen Li was that when she arrived at the legendary courtyard, there was no one inside, and it was quiet like no one lived in it for years .
She was even more surprised when she noticed that the layout of this small courtyard was exactly the same as that small courtyard on earth they used to live .
There were trees and plants, stone tables and chairs in the front yard, and a small pond dug under the vines in the backyard .
The room is much larger than before, and there are many wing rooms on both sides . The wooden structure of the house does not show how many years it has been built . It gave a timeless feeling .
Compared to Xing Yun’s house(Xing Zhi reincarnation as human, from the beginning of the novel), this should be considered an upgraded luxury version, but for those in the heavens that ate used to using luminous glass to make tiles and precious woods for houses, this house was indeed really simple .
Such an environment also let Shen Li subconsciously relax her guard .
Shen Li thought to herself, his memory was not erased when he went to the lower realm, so his small courtyard must be arranged according to this layout .
She still remembers that the furnishings here the same, so the formation must be present here too . Staying here will help her concentrate on clearing the toxins in her body .
This poison that was worrying her was not the one left by the three fairies, but the poison born by the monster she defeated back in the Demon’s world . She doesn’t know how this poison was cultivated that It took such deep roots .
Even with Shen Li’s fast recovery speed, it still took so long . There is still some residue, it is not easy to get rid of it .
Shen Li strolled around the house leisurely, and couldn’t help but think of the man of those days in the lower realm .
With his white clothes, resting in the sun under the vines, so leisurely and contented, perhaps, only when he was in the lower realm, wearing a mortal body, that’s why he could be so casual .
Returning to High God’s position, with too many emotions and scruples that Shen Li couldn’t understand . Different identities can really change a person too much...
Shen Li was distracted thinking about the past when she heard the sound of fish fiddling in the water .
Shen Li glanced at the pond in the backyard and walked over to look at the fat koi swimming in the pond .
She raised her eyebrows slightly: “A fish that no one feeds can grow so fat . The water in the heavens is good . ”
She sat down by the pond and fiddled with the clear water in the pool . Suddenly, a white and tender hand grasped Shen Li’s wrist .
Shen Li was startled, her eyes met a pair of big watery eyes, and then, with a flash of silver light, several pairs of crystal clear eyeballs stared directly at her face .
These koi... turned out to be children .
She was still in a daze, and suddenly heard one of the children giggling: “Big sister is coming to play with us?”
Shen Li listened to the sound of splashing water and shook her head subconsciously, but there were already several pairs of white hands grabbing her arm .
“Sister, come to play!” The children’s crisp voice was like a reminder, pulling Shen Li into the pond .
Shen Li sighed fiercely and before she could do anything she was pushed to the bottom of the pond .
The pond was much bigger than it seemed from outside, it was like a huge lake, but she still could see the light reflecting in the surface and illuminating even the bottom of the lake .
Shen Li’s fear of water is almost innate . She could hear the sound of water “buzzing” in her ears and her heart panicked slightly .
Fortunately, she can still control her emotions, but when the children with fishtails saw that she was trying to swim to the surface, dragged her ankles as if playing .
Shen Li wasn’t calm anymore, watching these children giggling and showing their white teeth, Shen Li felt that these cute faces were just like ghosts from hell .
She began to struggle, frantically scolded the children, but as soon she opened her mouth, water poured into her throat, unconsciously she tried to breathe, but more water came into her mouth .
She started to kick the children, using her hands and feet together to reach the light, her posture was ugly and she wants to but couldn’t scream .
When she finally stuck her nose out of the water before she could even take a breath a little kid jumped out of the water in excitement, slamming Chen Li down again .
Shen Li’s heart was burning with anger, just want to make a fire, boil the water in the pool, and scald these little kids, and when she comes ashore, pick them up and eat them one by one .
But she didn’t have the opportunity to resort to such a vicious trick . She only felt that the current around her had inexplicably become faster . Before she could react, a huge force pulled her out of the pond . Shen Li and several naked mermaid children fell to the ground like dead fishes .
She clutched her chest and coughed vigorously, making her face blush . The children were also bouncing on the ground, a fishtail slowly turning into a human leg .
Xing Zhi Put a white face towel on Shen Li’s face, but Shen Li threw the face towel angrily, pointed at the well-dressed man in white, panting,
“twice...twice!”
Xing Zhi naturally knew that she was referring to the time when she was practically a chicken and he threw her in the pond for a bath .
He just smiled and said: “This time was not my fault”
He casually folded a thin vine, walked along, and gently twitched the white buttocks of the children on the ground,
“Come on! . ”
The children clasped their bare buttocks, slightly aggrieved, and staggered into the house with unstable steps .
