Volume 5: The Mystery of Shamo Chapter 7: Lovesickness and One-Night Stand
Shamo City.
When the country bumpkin heard that the elders were going to let him go out with Gong Lili and the others to explore the world, he was incredibly excited. He ran all the way from the east end of the village to the west end, happily saying goodbye to everyone in the village, as well as the flowers, birds, insects and plants...
Mo Yi and the others didn't care. Originally, Yan Zheng and Ze Ze listened to Gong Lili , and she had the final say. Unexpectedly, Mo Yi didn't stop them, which surprised Gong Lili a little. But on second thought, she subconsciously thought that it was because Mo Yi and Tu Bie hit it off at first sight, and didn't have time to think about it too much.
After all, Ying Lili still has the huge stone of Shamo City weighing on her heart, and her mind is wandering among the Shamo tribesmen whose enemies and friends are unknown.
The night was as cold as water. Pinglili was thinking too much and tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She decided to get up and look at the stars.
She quietly pushed open the door, only to discover that the door next door was also ajar. Could it be that someone, like her, couldn't sleep and got up to look at the stars? Ping Lili subconsciously pressed the Life Spirit Technique and discovered that someone was leaning leisurely against the towering tree in the yard. The black clothes that perfectly blended into the pitch-black night and the familiar aura made Ping Lili know who it was without even having to think.
With a thought, he flashed into the yard, tapped his toes lightly, and in the blink of an eye he had flown up the tree, like a light night butterfly, and gently landed in front of the man.
Mo Yi was leaning against a tree trunk, one leg raised, resting on a fork. In the sparse moonlight, Ying Lili could vaguely see that his expression was as cold as jade, yet a bit lonely. What was he thinking about, staying awake in the middle of the night? Ying Lili didn't believe he was thinking about going out to see the stars, just like her.
Before she could say anything, Mo Yi's half-closed eyes slightly closed, and he embraced her with one hand. Before Ying Lili could react, she was pulled along by a strong force and fell into Mo Yi's arms.
Ping Lili was about to scream, but Mo Yi quickly covered her mouth with her other hand: "Shh, do you want to wake everyone up?"
This culprit actually had the nerve to threaten her shamelessly. Ying Lili glared at him fiercely but remained silent.
Only then did she realize that the position between herself and Mo Yi was quite ambiguous. Mo Yi's sudden attack had caught Ying Lili off guard, and she had actually fallen on him like a dog chewing mud. At this time, Mo Yi was leaning against the tree trunk, half lying down, and she was lying in his arms. This position, ahem, was really indecent...
Ping Lili's face turned red instantly, but fortunately the boundless night covered it up for her.
She struggled to get up, but Mo Yi's hand pressed on her back: "Don't move." For some reason, Ying Lili always felt that Mo Yi's voice tonight was particularly bewitching, and she couldn't bear to refuse him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Strong and powerful, well, a little faster than usual. It seems that I am not the only one whose heartbeat has accelerated. This realization makes Gong Lili feel inexplicably happy.
At this time, Mo Yi slowly stood up, leaned his back against the tree trunk, and sat up slightly. The next moment, Ping Lili's whole body had been transferred to his knees. Then , Mo Yi's hands tightly wrapped around her slender waist from behind. Ping Lili could feel him gently resting his chin on her neck, his soft hair caressing her cheek, and the warm and rich breath gently spraying on her neck made Ping Lili's heartbeat unconsciously accelerate again. Ping Lili, who was always eloquent, couldn't find her tongue at this time: "Mo, Mo Yi..."
I called his name softly, but it was as if my brain was deprived of blood. I didn't know what to say, or rather, I didn't know how to face Mo Yi's sudden intimacy.
Mo Yi hummed softly, and nothing else followed. She could only sit stupidly on his lap, letting him hold her tightly like this. The night was as intoxicating as wine, and neither know what to say. Or perhaps it could be said that silence was better than words at this moment, as it was this moment of tranquility and dependence that made both of them indulge in it.
A warmth slowly flowed through Ping Lili's heart . She simply closed her eyes, pressed her back closer to his chest, and quietly enjoyed this moment of quiet dependence with him.
Suddenly, I felt that all the suffering and hardships I had endured in the Void Realm were worth it. To be able to receive his gentle affection like water this night, it seemed that all the efforts and efforts were worth it.
For no reason, she suddenly recalled the equally cold night in the present world when he kissed her for the first time. The moonlight seemed to be just as picturesque, but her mood seemed to be completely different from that time.
At that time, I was more confused, hesitant, uneasy and at a loss. But now, it is so peaceful and peaceful. If only time could stop here, could stay in this moment forever, how wonderful it would be?
Yao Ji.
Going to Shamo City, they would face Yao Ji's soul. How would Mo Yi react when he saw Yao Ji's soul? Ying Lili didn't dare to think about it. She knew that Mo Yi must have feelings for her at this moment. From Mo Yi's every move, she could see his doting and attachment to her. However, she wasn't sure whether it was for her or Yao Ji.
She was also not sure how he would react when he really faced Yao Ji.
Yao Ji was like a galaxy separating her and Mo Yi.
At this moment, Yinglili suddenly wanted to act like a coward. She was suddenly afraid to face Yao Ji and go to Shamo City, because she was afraid that she would lose him.
"Lili..." No one knew how long they cuddled together like this. Maybe it was when the moon was at its highest point in the sky, Mo Yi suddenly spoke for no reason.
After a long silence, Ping Lili finally came back to his senses from his thoughts: "Hmm?"
"Have you ever regretted meeting me these days?" Mo Yi's voice was low and hoarse with an indescribable charm, which made Ying Lili slightly stunned.
After a while, she came back to her senses, her body suddenly stiffened, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Do you regret it?"
"If you hadn't met me, perhaps your life trajectory would have been completely different. Perhaps your mark would never have awakened and would have remained dormant forever..." At this point, Mo Yi sighed deeply, tightened his grip and hugged Qing Lili tightly, as if wanting to embed her deeply into his body: "If that were the case, perhaps you would still be living such a carefree life, without having to be like this now..."
Only then did Yinglili understand that Mo Yi was worried about this. Was he worried about himself? Was he regretting that he had disrupted his life trajectory? Was he regretting that he had brought her back to the underworld?
An unprecedented warmth suddenly surged in her heart. Was this a sign that he cared about her? Could she expect more?
A fleeting smile flashed across Pinglili's golden-brown eyes. Suddenly, she wanted to play a trick on him. She tilted her head, pretending to ponder for a moment, then answered seriously, "Yeah, that's right. If I hadn't met you, I might still be lying comfortably in my bed at home, dreaming of spring and autumn. Why would I come to this desolate wilderness to suffer? There's no air conditioning or computer here, and I can't even get ice cream..."
Feeling that Mo Yi's body behind him suddenly became stiff, Ping Lili finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Unexpectedly, Mo Yi is such a serious and gullible kid. Ping Lili suddenly found new fun. However, it is better to stop at the right time. Otherwise, it will not be fun if Mo Yi believes it seriously.
She slowly turned around and changed her position to sit sideways on his lap. Her eyes were like water, and she stared at Mo Yi deeply: "Although there is nothing here, but having you is enough. I have never regretted meeting you, just like I have never regretted falling in love with you. If you are my calamity, I am willing... to be doomed forever..."
There is no return. Ying Lili said it softly, but every word struck Mo Yi's heart.
Looking at the pair of golden brown eyes staring at him, filled with determination and sincerity, Mo Yi suddenly felt the desire to accompany her for the rest of his life. She was like a clear spring. Being with her could always wash away the deepest anxiety and sadness in his heart, as if the complicated past, love, hate and hatred in the world were just passing clouds.
However, God always likes to play jokes on people.
Suddenly, a breeze blew by, rustling the leaves all around. Amidst the sound of the wind, the sound of a flute could be heard...
The flute's sound was vague and ethereal, as if it were there and not there, but Ping Lili could hear it clearly. Who was it? Who was playing the flute? Ping Lili was curious, but she felt Mo Yi's body, which had been hugging her from behind, suddenly tighten again.
She looked up at him, only to find that his expression became complicated in an instant.
That complicated look suddenly reminded Gong Lili of the first time she met him in this world . When he faced that tribe member Zhuo Wei, he seemed to have shown the same expression. For no reason, her heart suddenly tightened, and a bad premonition slowly rose in her heart.
"Mo Yi?" She called him softly, nervously, but Mo Yi didn't respond, as if he hadn't heard her at all. He stared blankly in a certain direction, his eyes far away, his expression somewhat anxious...
"Mo Yi?! What's wrong with you?" Ying Lili called out again, raising her voice slightly, which finally brought Mo Yi back to her senses. A tangled feeling flashed in his eyes. After pondering for a moment, he gently placed a kiss on her forehead: "Wait here for me, I'll be back soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared into the pitch-black night.
Ping Lili stared blankly at the direction where he disappeared, but she didn't know what had happened to make Mo Yi so nervous, or was he in such a hurry to meet someone?
Could it be that the sound of the flute was deliberately summoning Mo Yi?
Ping Lili had a premonition that the person, the one playing the flute in the distance, must be someone Mo Yi knew.
But why did he go alone? What was he afraid of?
Mo Yi was indeed afraid, or terrified, or perhaps mixed with some joy. He originally thought that the man was no longer in this world. After all, five hundred years had passed. However, he did not expect that he was still alive.
