The Husky and His White Cat Shizun - Chap 9
Chu Wanning’s taste was truly terrible.
Tedious. Dry. Despairing.
Look at this shelf, what kind of lousy books are these!
“Ancient Enchantments Catalog”, “Illustrations of Exotic Flowers and Rare Herbs”, “Linyi Ru Feng Men Qin Score”, and “Collection of Plants”. The only thing that could be considered as a pastime was probably a few “Travels in Shu Land” and “Shu Shu Food Records”.
Mo Ran picked a few relatively new books. Obviously, Chu Wanning did not read them often. He smeared over all the pages and drew a bunch of erotic pictures.
As he drew, he thought, “Hmph, hmph, there are at least eight thousand books here. When Chu Wanning finds out that a few of them have been changed to forbidden books, who knows how long it will be. When that time comes, Chu Wanning will definitely not know who did it and can only sulk. How wonderful, how wonderful.”
As he thought about it, he could not help but laugh out loud while hugging the books.
Mo Ran smeared over a dozen books in a row. Using his imagination, he drew all kinds of erotic pictures. His brushwork could be said to be elegant and graceful. If someone asked Elder Yu Heng to borrow books and happened to borrow these few books, there would probably be rumors spread — —
“Elder Yu Heng has a beast’s heart. He actually secretly included pictures of men and women having sex in the” Art of Tranquility “!”
“Elder Yu Heng is unworthy of being a teacher. There are pictures of gay men in the sword manual!”
“What Northern Dipper Celestial Venerable? A beast in human clothing!”
The more Mo Ran thought about it, the funnier it became. In the end, he simply held his stomach and rolled around on the ground with his brush. He was so happy that he did not even notice that someone had walked to the entrance of the library.
So when Shi Mei came over, he saw Mo Ran rolling around in a pile of books, laughing like crazy.
Shi Mei: “… … Mo Ran, what are you doing?”
Mo Ran was stunned. He immediately sat up and hurriedly covered up the erotic pictures. He put on a pretentious face and said, “Wipe, wipe the floor.”
Shi Mei held back his laughter. “Wipe the floor with your clothes?”
“Cough, I didn’t find a rag. Let’s not talk about this anymore. Shi Mei, why are you here so late at night? ”
“I went to your room to look for you, but I couldn’t find you. I asked someone else and found out that you were with Master.” Shi Mei entered the library and helped Mo Ran put away the books that were piled all over the floor. He smiled gently and said, “I have nothing to do, so I came to see you.”
Mo Ran was very happy and flattered. He pursed his lips. He had always been a smooth-talker, but he was at a loss for words.
“Then … hmm … then you sit!” After running around excitedly for a while, Mo Ran said nervously, “I, I’ll go get you some tea.”
“No need, I came here quietly. If Master finds out, it’ll be troublesome.”
Mo Ran scratched his head. “That’s true … …” Chu Wanning, that pervert! Sooner or later, I’ll topple him and won’t submit to his despotic power!
“You haven’t eaten dinner yet, right? I brought some dishes for you. ”
Mo Ran’s eyes lit up. “Dragon Suan Shou?”
“Pfft, you’re really not sick of it. I didn’t bring my Dragon Suan Shou. The Red Lotus Pavilion is far away, so I was afraid that it would get stuck if I brought it. Here, some stir-fried dishes. See if they’re to your taste? ”
Shi Mei opened the food box on the side. Sure enough, there were several bright red dishes inside. There was a plate of wind ear, a plate of shredded pork with garlic sauce, a plate of chicken cubes, a plate of cucumber with garlic sauce, and a bowl of rice.
“Hey, did you put in chili?”
“I was afraid you’d be hungry, so I put in a little bit.” Shi Mei laughed. He and Mo Ran both loved spicy food, so they naturally knew the principle of eating spicy food. “But your wound hasn’t fully healed yet, so I didn’t dare to put too much. It’s better to add a little bit of flavor than not having any red at all.”
Mo Ran happily bit his chopsticks. His dimples were as sweet as honey under the candlelight. “Wow! I’m so moved I want to cry! ”
Shi Mei held back his laughter. “By the time you’re done crying, the food will be cold. Eat before you cry. ”
Mo Ran cheered and swung his chopsticks quickly.
When he ate, he was like a starving dog. Chu Wanning couldn’t get used to seeing him eat like a ghost, but Shi Mei didn’t mind.
Shi Mei was always gentle. He smiled and told him to eat slowly while passing him a cup of tea. Soon, the plate was empty. Mo Ran rubbed his stomach and sighed. He closed his eyes and sighed. “Satisfied …”
Shi Mei seemed to ask casually, “Is the Dragon Suan Shou better, or these dishes?”
Mo Ran was very infatuated with food, just like how he was with his first love. He tilted his head and looked at Shi Mei with his black and soft eyes. He grinned. “Dragon Suan Shou.”
“… …” Shi Mei smiled and shook his head. After a while, he said, “Mo Ran, let me help you change the dressing.”
The ointment was made by Madam Wang.
In her early years, Madam Wang was a disciple of the “Lone Moon’s Night” of the Medicine Sect. She was weak in martial arts and didn’t like fighting and killing, but she liked to study medicine. There was a medicinal garden at the Peak of Life and Death. She personally planted many precious plants there, so there was never a lack of medicine in the sect.
Mo Ran took off his shirt and turned his back to Shi Mei. The scar on his back was still aching, but Shi Mei dipped his warm fingers in the ointment and rubbed it away. Gradually, he forgot about the pain and became restless.
“Okay.” Shi Mei wrapped a new bandage around Mo Ran’s back and carefully tied a knot. “Put on your clothes.”
Mo Ran turned his head and looked at Shi Mei. Under the dim candlelight, Shi Mei’s skin was white as snow. He looked even more charming. His mouth was dry and he really didn’t want to put on his clothes. After hesitating for a while, he lowered his head and quickly put on his coat.
“Shi Mei.”
“Hmm?”
In such a secluded study, the atmosphere between a single man and a single man was very good. Mo Ran originally wanted to say something touching, but he was an illiterate person who could even change his era name to “Halberd Bo”. After holding back for a long time, his face was red from holding back, but he only managed to squeeze out two words. “You’re so nice.”
“What’s wrong with that? It’s what I should do.”
“I’ll be especially nice to you.” Mo Ran’s tone was very calm, but his sweaty palms betrayed his surging heart. “When I’m strong enough, no one can bully you. Not even Shizun. ”
Shi Mei didn’t know why he suddenly said this. He was stunned for a moment, but still said gently, “Okay. Then in the future, I’ll have to rely on Mo Ran.”
“Yes, yes …”
Mo Ran hesitantly agreed, but Shi Mei’s flirtatious gaze made him even more anxious. He didn’t dare to look at him again and lowered his head.
He had always been very careful with this person, even stubbornly stubborn.
“Ah, Shizun wants you to wipe so many books? And make them overnight? ”
Mo Ran still wanted to save face in front of his sweetheart. “It’s okay. If I hurry, there’s still time.”
Shi Mei said, “Let me help you.”
“How can that be? If Shizun finds out, he’ll definitely punish you as well.” Mo Ran was very firm. “It’s getting late. You should go back and rest. There’s still morning cultivation tomorrow.”
Shi Mei pulled his hand and laughed softly. “It’s okay. He won’t find out. We’ll quietly …”
Before he finished speaking, he heard a cold voice.
“Quietly what?”
Chu Wanning had come out of the mechanism room at some point. His face was cold, and his red phoenix eyes were like snow. He was dressed in white and cold. He stood at the entrance of the library and looked at them expressionlessly. His gaze paused on their hands for a moment, then moved away.
“Shi Mingjing, Mo Weiyu, how dare you.”
Shi Mei’s face was as white as snow. He suddenly let go of Mo Ran’s hand and whispered, “Shizun …”
Mo Ran also had a bad feeling. He lowered his head. “Shizun.”
Chu Wanning walked in. He ignored Mo Ran and looked down at Shi Mei who was kneeling on the ground. He said lightly, “The Red Lotus Pavilion is covered with barriers. Did you think that I wouldn’t know if you entered unannounced?”
Shi Mei kowtowed in fear. “This disciple knows his mistake.”
Mo Ran was anxious. “Shizun, Shi Mei only came to change my medicine. He’ll leave immediately. Please don’t blame him.”
Shi Mei was also anxious. “Shizun, this has nothing to do with Junior Brother Mo. It’s this disciple’s fault. This disciple is willing to accept punishment.”
“… …”
Chu Wanning’s face turned green.
He hadn’t said more than a few words, but these two were already rushing to exonerate the other. They saw him as a scourge and shared a common enemy. Chu Wanning was silent for a while. He suppressed the twitching of his eyebrows and said lightly, “You really have deep feelings for your fellow disciples. It’s touching. It seems that I’m the only bad person in this room.”
Mo Ran said, “Shizun … …”
“… … Don’t call me that.”
Chu Wanning flung his sleeves, unwilling to say anything else. Mo Ran didn’t know what had happened to him and why he was so angry. He guessed that Chu Wanning had always hated people pulling and pulling in front of him. No matter what kind of pulling and pulling, it would probably dirty his eyes.
The three of them were silent for a long time.
Chu Wanning suddenly turned around and left.
Shi Mei raised his head. His eyes were a bit red. He said blankly, “Shizun?”
“Go and copy the sect rules ten times. Go back.”
Shi Mei lowered his eyes. After a while, he said softly, “… … Yes.”
Mo Ran was still kneeling in the same place.
Shi Mei stood up. He looked at Mo Ran and hesitated. After a while, he knelt down again and begged Chu Wanning.
“Shizun, Shidi Mo’s scar has just healed. If this disciple is so bold, please don’t make things too difficult for him.”
Chu Wanning didn’t say anything. He stood alone under the flickering candlelight. After a while, he suddenly turned his face. His eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were like torches. He said angrily.
“So much nonsense. Why aren’t you leaving?!”
Chu Wanning was handsome but not gentle enough. When he was angry, he was even more frightening. Shi Mei was scared. He was afraid that he would anger his Shizun and implicate Mo Ran. He quickly bowed and left.
Only the two of them were left in the library. Mo Ran sighed inwardly. He said, “Shizun, this disciple was wrong. This disciple will continue to write the records.”
Chu Wanning didn’t turn his head. He said, “If you’re tired, you can go back.”
Mo Ran suddenly raised his head.
Chu Wanning said coldly, “I won’t keep you.”
How could he be so kind as to let him go? There must be a trick!
Mo Ran said wittily, “I won’t go.”
Chu Wanning paused and sneered. “… … Fine, as you wish.”
After saying that, he swung his sleeves and turned to leave.
Mo Ran was stunned. There was no trick? He thought that Chu Wanning was going to give him some willow vines.
After busying himself until midnight, he finally finished his work. Mo Ran yawned and walked out of the book pavilion.
At this time, it was already late at night. Chu Wanning’s bedroom was still illuminated by a dim yellow light.
Huh? That loathsome devil still hasn’t slept?
Mo Ran walked over and prepared to say goodbye to Chu Wanning before leaving. When he entered the room, he found that Chu Wanning had already gone to bed. It was just that this person with a bad memory forgot to extinguish the candles before going to bed.
Or maybe, he was halfway through his work and directly fell asleep from exhaustion. Mo Ran glanced at the prototype of the God of Night that was pieced together by the bed. He estimated this possibility in his mind. In the end, when he saw that Chu Wanning didn’t take off the metal gloves at all, and that half of the mechanical button was still tightly gripped in his hand, he confirmed that this was the truth.
When Chu Wanning was asleep, he wasn’t so cold and austere. He was curled up on the bed that was piled with mecha parts and saw axes. There were so many things spread out that there wasn’t much space for him, so he curled up very small. His body was arched, and his long eyelashes were drooping. He actually looked a bit lonely.
Mo Ran stared at him in a daze for a while.
Today, Chu Wanning … … What was he angry about?
Could it be that he was angry at Shi Mei for trespassing on the Red Lotus Waterside Pavilion and wanted to help him organize the books?
Mo Ran walked over to the bed and rolled his eyes. He moved closer to Chu Wanning’s ear and tried to call out in a very small voice, “Shizun?”
“… … Oh … …” Chu Wanning softly groaned and hugged the cold mecha in his arms. He was in a deep sleep, and his breathing was even. The metal gloves that he didn’t take off had sharp teeth. They rested on the side of his face like the claws of a cat or leopard.
When Mo Ran saw that he didn’t look like he would wake up anytime soon, his heart skipped a beat. He narrowed his eyes and rubbed the corners of his mouth into a mischievous smile. He leaned close to Chu Wanning’s ear and probed in a low voice, “Shizun, wake up.”
“… …”
“Shizun?”
“… …”
“Chu Wanning?”
“… …”
“Hey, you’re really in deep sleep.” Mo Ran was amused. He leaned against the pillow and looked at him with a smile. “That’s great. I’ll take this opportunity to settle the score with you.”
Chu Wanning didn’t know that someone wanted to settle the score with him. He continued to sleep with his eyes closed. His handsome face was very peaceful.
Mo Ran put on a dignified posture. Unfortunately, he was born in a music house and didn’t study much. When he was young, he was exposed to street fights and storytelling. Therefore, the words that he pieced together sounded very clumsy and funny.
“How dare you, unruly people of the Chu family. You deceived the Emperor and disrespected the Emperor. You … … Hmm, you … …”
He scratched his head and was a little speechless. After all, when he became the Emperor, the words that came out of his mouth were either a lowly servant or a dog slave. However, these words didn’t seem to be suitable for Chu Wanning.
After racking his brain for a long time, he suddenly thought of a phrase that the girls in the music house often said. Although he didn’t know what it meant, it seemed to be quite good. So Mo Ran frowned and said sternly,
“You heartless lowly donkey, do you know your crime?”
Chu Wanning, “… …”
“If you don’t speak, I’ll take it that you admit to your crime!”
Chu Wanning probably felt that it was a little noisy. He groaned and hugged the mecha to continue sleeping.
“You have committed such a big crime. According to the law, I will sentence you … … Hmm, sentence you to verbal punishment! Eunuch Liu! ”
After shouting out of habit, he realized that Eunuch Liu was already a person from his previous life.
Mo Ran thought for a while and decided to play the role of a father-in-law. So he said flatteringly, “Your Majesty, this old servant is here.”
Then he immediately cleared his throat and said solemnly, “Carry out the sentence immediately.”
“As Your Majesty commands.”
Okay, the sentence was over.
Mo Ran rubbed his hands together and began to “torture” Chu Wanning.
The so-called verbal punishment actually didn’t exist. It was something that Mo Ran made up on the spot.
Then how should this verbal punishment that he thought up on the spot be carried out?
The tyrant of a generation, Mo Ran, solemnly cleared his throat. His gaze was cold and fierce. He slowly moved closer to Chu Wanning’s face, which was as cold as a spring in a snowy valley. Little by little, he moved closer to those pale lips.
Then … …
Mo Ran stopped. He glared at Chu Wanning and cursed, word by word.
“Chu Wanning, f * ck your mother. You peerless little. Mind. Eye.”
Slap. Slap.
He slapped himself twice in the air.
Hehe, the sentence was a success!
Awesome!
Mo Ran was laughing when he suddenly felt a prickling sensation on his neck. He felt something strange and quickly lowered his head. He met a pair of cold and noble eyes.
Mo Ran, “… …”
Chu Wanning’s voice was like a broken ice lake. It was hard to say whether it was more celestial or colder. “What are you doing?”
“I … … Bah. This old servant … … Bah bah bah! “Fortunately, these two words were as soft as a mosquito’s buzz. Chu Wanning frowned slightly. It seemed that he didn’t hear clearly. Mo Ran had an idea. He raised his hand and slapped Chu Wanning’s face twice.
“… …”
Facing his master’s increasingly unfriendly expression, the former Venerable Lord of the Human Realm smiled obsequiously and said, “This disciple, this disciple is killing mosquitoes for the master.”
