Then, Mu Anxiao suddenly remembered how Shi Yi had met her, and thinking about it, he must have seen her meeting with the man in green. Therefore, he had been pretending to be foolish all along.
"Speak, how long have you been following me?" she asked deliberately.
"I..." Shi Yi was speechless.
Mu Anxiao looked at his speechless face and chuckled, "Sometimes, when you lie too much, you even forget how to speak normally. Didn't you say you saw me long ago? What, pretending to be foolish now?" She pointed at Shi Yi.
Feng Qishi frowned, tightened the silver rope, and said, "Exactly. I also heard you say that you saw her long ago. So, according to normal development, you must have met my junior brother. If that's the case," he widened his eyes, "you're playing me!"
"No, I..."
"I know, you like my immortal body, that's why you said you liked me, you scumbag," Mu Anxiao blurted out, her mind working quickly.
"No, I really like you," Shi Yi said firmly.
"If I believe you, I lose," Mu Anxiao glared at Shi Yi, then turned to the man in green, "Let's go, let's go."
"Our relationship has been exposed like this," said the man in green, glancing at Feng Qishi, and asking in his heart, "Senior brother, will you still help me with my affairs?"
"I'm watching," Feng Qishi replied casually.
Mu Anxiao looked at the way Feng Qishi and the man in green exchanged glances and snorted.
Shi Yi looked at Mu Anxiao and said, "I really like you."
"Get going, you rat spirit," Mu Anxiao pointed ahead.
Shi Yi frowned.
In an instant, they stood side by side in front of a house.
Mu Anxiao smelled the scent of burning firewood around them and asked, "Don't rabbits only eat vegetables? Why does it smell like roasting?"
"Did they roast Hong Yan?" the man in green asked nervously.
"No way," Mu Anxiao said. As she walked to the door and was about to raise her hand, she suddenly remembered something and lowered it.
"Why don't you knock?" the man in green asked.
Mu Anxiao turned around and said, "If we just go in like this, we might get caught."
"Then how do we get in?" the man in green panicked.
Feng Qishi nudged the man in green with his elbow and said, "Are you stupid? Of course, we sneak in."
"How do we sneak in?" Shi Yi asked.
Feng Qishi turned to look at Shi Yi, who was standing beside him, and smiled, "Aren't you a rat? You should have the skill to burrow through walls, right?"
"Yes, but... I can do it when I'm a rat. Look," Shi Yi looked down at his clothes, "I'm not a rat now."
"You..." Feng Qishi was speechless.
Mu Anxiao looked at the masked Shi Yi and curled her lips, saying, "You can just go in. You're a monster anyway."
"No, the rabbit spirit will find me," Shi Yi said excitedly.
Mu Anxiao sniffed the air and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the rabbit spirit invited the rat spirits today. Otherwise, there wouldn't be the smell of roasting."
"I don't eat that," Shi Yi said uncomfortably.
"Just because you don't eat it doesn't mean they don't. Go in and take a look, then find a rabbit named Hong Yan," Mu Anxiao decided.
Shi Yi raised his hand and said, "I'm tied up by the soul-locking rope. How can I go?"
"I'll go with you," Feng Qishi said, glancing at the man in green.
The man in green understood Feng Qishi's meaning. With a wave of his single arm, Feng Qishi became invisible.
"You're invisible," Shi Yi exclaimed.
"Don't worry, only you can see me. Of course," Feng Qishi said, "if you dare to say anything, I'll directly strangle your rat soul out of you on the spot." He tugged at the rope.
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare," Shi Yi shivered all over.
"That's more like it. Let's go," Feng Qishi pointed at the door.
"Going now?" Shi Yi looked terrified.
Mu Anxiao looked at Shi Yi's expression and said, "Remember you're a rat. Be brave, you thief."
"I feel like you're scolding me," Shi Yi said uncomfortably.
"No, I'm praising you," Mu Anxiao said, raising an eyebrow at Shi Yi.
Shi Yi smiled at Mu Anxiao, who looked gentler in his eyes, "Thank you, I'm going."
Mu Anxiao smiled, glanced at the man in green, stepped forward, and crouched behind the stone lion.
The man in green looked at Shi Yi, then turned and stood behind Mu Anxiao. He waved his hand over Mu Anxiao's head, and Mu Anxiao became invisible.
"What are you doing?" Mu Anxiao, not having reacted, looked up and asked.
"You're in danger like this. It's better to be invisible," the man in green said, snapping his fingers, and he too became invisible.
Seeing that Mu Anxiao and the man in green were safe, Feng Qishi looked at Shi Yi and said, "Hurry up. Our mission is to find Hong Yan."
"Okay," Shi Yi agreed, retracting his gaze from Mu Anxiao. He turned, took two steps forward, and knocked directly on the wooden door.
Mu Anxiao crouched behind the stone lion, looking at the house in front of her, and said, "This place is different from that year."
"It must be different. Decades have passed anyway," said the man in green.
Mu Anxiao sighed and sat down on the ground.
Seeing Mu Anxiao sit down, the man in green asked, "Aren't you afraid of getting dirty?"
"What's there to be afraid of," Mu Anxiao said, leaning against the stone lion and closing her eyes.
"What are you doing?" the man in green asked in surprise, looking at the leisurely enjoying Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao pursed her lips and said, "I'm going to sleep for a while. Don't disturb me."
"You..." the man in green was speechless looking at Mu Anxiao like this.
On the other side, a rabbit spirit dressed in white, who had transformed into human form, opened the door. "Who are you?"
Shi Yi showed only his two eyes and looked at the white-clothed rabbit spirit, saying, "Oh, I'm the new helper. Sorry, I'm late."
"Late, you can't come in," the white-clothed rabbit spirit said directly.
Shi Yi's eyes rolled. He took out a fresh carrot from his sleeve and handed it to the white-clothed rabbit spirit, saying, "This is a gift. I have many more."
Rabbit spirits have always loved carrots. Now, the white-clothed rabbit spirit looked at the carrot in Shi Yi's hand and swallowed, "I only ate half a carrot this morning, and I haven't eaten anything since."
"Do you want to eat it?" Shi Yi asked, looking at the rabbit spirit whose eyes were fixed on the carrot.
"I want to eat it," the rabbit spirit nodded.
Shi Yi curled his lips, dangled the carrot in front of the white-clothed rabbit spirit, and said, "I can give it to you, but can you turn a blind eye to me?"
"Yes," the rabbit spirit nodded.
Shi Yi smiled, handed the carrot to her, and said, "Move aside."
The white-clothed rabbit spirit gave Shi Yi a silly smile and moved aside.
Shi Yi glanced at Feng Qishi, then stepped over the threshold and went inside.
Then, the rabbit spirit closed the door with one hand while gnawing on the carrot with the other.
