Chapter 78
The human form transformed by the giant dragon was also very powerful. Mingshu's bite was slightly heavier than his kiss yesterday, like a light poke with the tip of a feather.
Si Ning ignored the subtle itch on his fingertips, got up and went back to the bedroom.
It was getting dark, Si Ning went into the bathroom, Ming Shu chose a set of clothes from her closet, brought a towel, and then flew in slowly.
His small bathtub was placed near the sink, filled with warm water, and a wooden shelf was made on the edge, which can be used to hang clothes.
Seeing that Si Ning was not paying attention to him, Ming Shu quietly took off his clothes and lay down in the mist.
With a special towel for wiping her body, Ming Shu also washed her wings, splashing them in the water.
After washing, he turned over and sat up, turned around and found that Si Ning was looking at him.
Ming Shu grabbed the side of the bathtub: "Your Highness..."
The temperature in the pool was even higher, and the continuously evaporating water vapor covered Si Ning's face, making it hard to see clearly.
Si Ning didn't make a sound, and quickly looked away. Ming Shu left after washing, and took away the changed clothes and towels.
As soon as he hung up the towel, Si Ning also came out of the bathroom immediately,
Mingshu picked up some clothes: "Your Highness, what should I do with these?"
In fact, the clothes he changed out were not dirty, but Si Ning prepared a whole wardrobe for him, and it would be a waste if he didn't wear them.
Si Ning responded casually, "Leave it alone."
He sat down beside the desk, watched Mingshu tidy up his wardrobe, and stretched out his hand to grab him.
His strength was not heavy, Ming Shu was hanging on the tiger's mouth by his hand, his crooked fingers wrapped around him vaguely.
Si Ning brought him in front of him, and stroked his wet hair with the other hand.
The end of the silver hair was stained with water, and he simply wiped it off with a towel. Si Ning's fingertips curled up a few strands slightly, and Ming Shu felt the heat source rising from his hand, as if being illuminated by warm sunlight.
The hair became dry quickly, Ming Shu touched it by himself, and crawled along Si Ning's hand to his cuff.
He didn't fly either, so Si Ning helped him, and touched the transparent little wings on his back to see if they were also wet.
The fingertips touched again, Mingshu dodged sensitively, and the touched wing tips shook slightly, like frightened mimosa leaves.
He frowned slightly, turned around and hugged that hand: "Your Highness."
Just now Mingshu washed his wings by himself and wiped them with a towel, but he didn't feel anything wrong, but when Si Ning touched him, he seemed very uncomfortable, and his cheeks turned red.
Si Ning's hand was hugged, he adjusted his posture, and carefully touched Mingshu's wings with the other hand to confirm that they were dry and would not affect his flight.
He asked, "What's the matter?"
Ming Shu was forced to lie on his palm, her wings curled up shyly, her buried face flushed red, as if her whole body had been rubbed.
The thin wings are actually the most sensitive organ in the body. He struggled slightly and hummed softly: "Your Highness..."
Si Ning noticed his strangeness and stopped in time.
Ming Shu sat up after a while, looked at Si Ning and said: "Your Highness, don't touch my wings."
His blushing cheeks were rubbed with fingertips, Si Ning watched him carefully protect the wings behind him with his hands, and pressed down ready to move: "Can't touch it?"
Ming Shu couldn't explain clearly, so he responded, "Yes."
Si Ning continued to touch his cheek gently: "I can't touch it either?"
With the status and relationship between the dragon clan and the guardian elves, Si Ning can do whatever he wants with Mingshu.
Ming Shu thought to himself, he is not willing to form a bond, and Si Ning has clearly regarded him as his guardian elf after spending a day and a half together.
Just based on Si Ning's actions just now, it proves that he likes him.
Ming Shu didn't answer, but pushed his finger away and flew to the table: "Your Highness, it's getting late, you should go to rest."
Si Ning's hands were empty, his downcast eyes fell on Ming Shu, and he really got up and went to the bed.
However, when he lay down, he realized that Ming Shu had no intention of being with him.
Ming Shu took off the soft towel that he had used in the bath at night, it was a big one, fully half of it was still dry.
He spread the towel on the floor, slept on the dry side, and plucked a leaf to cover himself.
The towel was very soft, much warmer than yesterday, Ming Shu hugged the leaves and lay down, ready to sleep.
The lights in the room went out, and in the darkness, Si Ning's voice sounded: "Mingshu."
His tone was the same as before, without any emotion: "Come here."
Ming Shu pretended not to hear, closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
After a while, he felt his body float up slightly, moving along with the towels and leaves around him, and was brought into Si Ning's bed by the wind, and placed in the corner where Ming Shu slept last night.
The familiar breath approached, and took his leaf away with one hand.
With Si Ning around, the temperature in the bed is suitable, Ming Shu doesn't need to cover herself with a quilt.
He quietly opened his eyes, and Si Ning was sleeping not far away.
Mingshu was sure that he liked her, so why didn't she form a bond with him?
He snorted in his heart, turned his back to Si Ning.
It's fine if you don't form a bond, but fortunately, there is no time limit for the main task, so he will first find a way to complete the side task.
Mingshu opened the system panel and took a look, and suddenly found that the progress bar of the third item also went up.
There is no description for this progress bar, and I don’t know what it means. There is no system notification for how much it has increased, or even a specific value. It looks like 10 o’clock.
Mingshu searched the system, but couldn't find any relevant hints, so he had to give up.
Could it be a bug?Moreover, the plot development of this dungeon has deviated from the very beginning, and the gap is not small.
Turning off the system, Ming Shu silently kept an eye out.
The progress of the mission is still in the early stages, and the plot has only been updated twice. According to the habit of the previous two dungeons, there must be more difficult missions waiting for him later.
This dungeon should be single-player, Si Ning once again lost the memory belonging to Yuan Chen, Gu Chi seems to be absent.
Ming Shu lost sleepiness, and looked through the plot and system rules again.
—
The next day, Ming Shu got up early, ate two petals, and went to the study with Si Ning as before.
Ji Lian came again, he brought a few thick books and handed them to Si Ning.
"Your Highness Fifth, I will leave the archipelago tomorrow, and I won't be back until a few days later," he said, "There are annotations in my own handwriting in these books, you can take a look at them in your free time."
These are the books that contain spells, Si Ning almost has a photographic memory and learns them very quickly.
And Ji Lian is not a dragon, he will leave the archipelago tomorrow, he has to pack his things and prepare for the formalities today, and he leaves soon after delivering the books.
Si Ning read alone, and finished the thickest book in one morning.
Sitting on the window sill basking in the sun, Ming Shu caught a glimpse of Si Ning closing the book and looking up at himself.
Si Ning tapped on the table with his fingers: "Come here."
Ming Shu dawdled, but refused to get up: "Your Highness, I want to bask in the sun here."
In fact, the table in front of Si Ning was partly covered by sunlight, Ming Shu deliberately didn't go to his side, and turned his back to him.
With the quiet behind him, Ming Shu quietly paid attention to Si Ning's movements.
Without the bond, Ming Shu couldn't be regarded as Si Ning's guardian elf, so he could not listen to him, and it would be even better if it could increase the Qi value.
However, Ming Shu waited patiently for a long while, but nothing happened.
He looked back and saw that Si Ning had already picked up another book to read, and he didn't seem to care about Ming Shu's disobedience just now.
Ming Shu couldn't sit still anymore, he flew down the windowsill and came to Si Ning's side: "Your Highness, I... go out to play for a while."
The guardian elves should always be by the side of the Dragon Clan, right?He chose not to stay in the study, anyway, he had to find a way to complete one of the main and side quests.
Either let Si Ning be "bullied", or he will make a pact with himself.
There was more than a day left in the side mission, and if it was impossible, he poured water on Si Ning again.
Although Ming Shu had a good idea, Si Ning agreed directly: "Yeah."
He reached out and touched Mingshu's hair, and secretly cast a spell on him: "Go."
Si Ning thought that Ming Shu was really bored and didn't want to stay in the dull study.
The palace is huge, as long as he doesn't run outside the palace, he can play wherever he wants.
Ming Shu froze for a moment: "Okay, okay."
He turned around and left the study from the window, and flew towards the empty corridor.
Ming Shu was really happy to be able to come out to play. Since Si Ning agreed, he planned to stay outside for a longer time, and it would be best if Si Ning came to find him in person.
He wandered around the palace aimlessly. Only Si Ning lived in the whole palace. There were many empty rooms, and he occasionally saw a few attendants cleaning them.
Flying through several corridors, Mingshu came to a garden on the top of the mountain.
Ming Shu was silently amazed at the vast green plants and flowers in front of him. He quickly flew in, stopped in front of a flower, hugged the petals and sniffed lightly.
Born from flowers, elves are a race that naturally loves plants. Ming Shu flew around, rolling on the thick leaves, and soon forgot about Si Ning.
After an unknown amount of time, the sun gradually became less intense, and a system notification sounded.
Mingshu opened it and saw that the qi value had increased by 5 points, now a total of 15 points, which is still 5 points away from the completion of the task.
Sure enough, his idea was correct, the duty of the guardian elves was to be by the side of the Dragon Clan at all times, and they were there whenever they were called, but Ming Shu left Si Ning and came out to play alone for so long.
But only 5 o'clock is not enough, Ming Shu thought, could it be a matter of time, if he plays a little longer, maybe it will rise a little bit.
Si Ning didn't ask the attendant to come to him, and Ming Shu didn't want to leave the garden, so he picked a flower and ate a couple of bites when he got hungry.
Until the sun was gradually setting, Ming Shu was lying on the side of the leaf-covered flower bed to blow the wind, and heard footsteps approaching.
He thought it was Si Ning who came to look for him, turned over and sat up, and saw a slightly familiar figure in front of the porch at the entrance of the garden.
The long, slightly curly red hair was casually tied behind his head with a headband, his face was three points similar to Si Ning's, and he was the Second Highness Ming Shu met that day.
Seeing that Mingshu found him, Si Yin approached slowly, and raised the corners of his lips: "Little elf, do you still remember me?"
The other party was His Highness of the Dragon Clan, Ming Shu got up and stood up: "Second Highness."
The smile on Si Yin's face widened, and he squatted down by the flower bed: "Why are you here alone?"
He knew that Si Ning was probably in the study, and Ming Shu, as his guardian elf, should be by his side.
Ming Shu took half a step back: "I..."
It was written in the plot that he behaved very normally in front of the Dragon Clan except Si Ning, so the Second Highness in front of him should not know that he was out to play.
Ming Shu was thinking of making an excuse, Si Yin narrowed his eyes slightly: "That's not right."
"You haven't formed a bond with Si Ning yet?" He seemed surprised, and then there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.
Ming Shu sensed something was wrong, and stepped back: "Then, that's because..."
Si Yin interrupted him: "Why don't you come and follow me? I'm much gentler than him."
There was also a guardian elf sitting on his shoulder, and he trembled when he heard this.
Ming Shu looked up at the elf, and said tactfully, "But you..."
The dragon clan can only have one guardian elf, and Si Yin already had his own elf, so why take him away.
"You mean this?" Si Yin noticed Ming Shu's gaze, and grabbed the elf from his shoulder.
The elf was held in his hand, and suddenly let out a weak scream.
Si Yin's expression remained unchanged, he easily crushed the elf to death, and casually threw it on the ground: "It's all right now."
A living elf died in the blink of an eye, Ming Shu was frightened by this scene and his face turned pale.
Si Yin stretched out his hand again to grab him. Ming Shu is an unowned elf, and Si Ning is not around at the moment. When he forms a contract with Ming Shu, it will be useless for Si Ning to get angry again.
Ming Shu hurriedly wanted to fly away, but his wings seemed to be nailed in place.
Just when Si Yin's hand was about to touch him, an arc of dark light emanated from him, instantly knocking Si Yin into the air.
The air twisted, and a figure in a black robe appeared out of thin air, gently holding Mingshu in his arms.
Si Yin got up from the ground, and he twitched the corners of his mouth, with a look of disappointment and disbelief: "You actually cast your own summoning spell on an elf?"
