After a chase, Lu Xiaoguo finally let Lin Li go.
Lin Li moved his sore arms, but it was quite difficult for him to deal with it - and this was after he had initially mastered Guo Bao's sword technique.
Jerry was very resentful about this because Lin Li had just tried to use him to resist damage - and the successful result was that his butt was poked.
It's time for a new owner.
Or I would never go out to "play" with Lin Li next time. It would be better to stay at home and let Tom accept the pain.
"Lu Xiaoguo, your swordsmanship is quite powerful." Lin Li's breathing became slightly heavier.
For Lin Li, he could just blurt out compliments without any price.
"Hmph, my swordsmanship, apart from being easy to kill myself, is also very powerful." Lu Xiaoguo, who was very impressed by the compliment, said with some pride:
"And I just stopped because I noticed it was you, otherwise... hum! Guo Li, you will die as miserable as my corpse!"
It was a strange description, but from Lu Xiaoguo's mouth, it seemed very reasonable.
"Wait! Don't try to blind me with your praises. Why did you stab me in the middle of the night?" But Lu Xiaoguo, who reacted immediately, asked loudly, "I need a reasonable toilet paper!"
"Toilet paper...? Is that an explanation?"
"almost."
"..."
"Cheng Liuxiang said before that this is the only way to wake you up..." After a moment of silence, Lin Li said weakly.
"?"
"How is that possible!? This is the most annoying way for me to be woken up. Cheng Liuxiang has been with me for so long, so she must know! Stop lying to me!"
Lu Xiaoguo immediately denied this statement.
Lin Li did not argue with Lu Xiaoguo's response - because there was no need for Lu Xiaoguo to lie to himself on this point, what he said should be true.
Lin Li just raised his eyebrows, a little confused about this: So Cheng Liuxiang deliberately told himself this wrong information, and wanted to induce himself to do this?
The purpose is to make Lu Xiaoguo hate him?
Thinking along this direction, Lin Li felt that his thoughts suddenly became clear for a short time.
During breakfast yesterday morning, Lu Xiaoguo also made it clear that he hated having nightmares. His hatred even extended to people who have nightmares. He also told Lin Li to stay away from him and not to "infect" nightmares to him.
Could this be their purpose of going around in circles?
Picture what? Is it because some decisions require the consensus of the three Musketeers?
It still feels so unnecessary.
Judging from the content of the chat, Pineapple Chuixue and Cheng Liuxiang had no ill intentions towards Lu Xiaoguo, and even cared about his feelings.
The only thing they want to solve is themselves.
"Then if I want to wake you up in the future, what method should I use?"
Thinking of this, Lin Li decided to maintain the relationship with Lu Xiaoguo as much as possible, so he asked.
"Woke up."
"..."
"?" Lin Li showed a confused smile with a black question mark face.
Lu Xiaoguo was quite good at silencing others, and Lin Li felt stuck to Arthur.
"I know...I'll try not to call you in the future, so that's okay." Lin Li sighed.
"Because you woke me up, you are even less cute in my eyes!" Lu Xiaoguo cockily tilted his head and snorted.
"Sorry, sorry, sorry..." Lin Li immediately said it sincerely.
"Okay, tell me, what happened when you woke me up in the middle of the night? If it wasn't important, I would be really angry." Lu Xiaoguo rubbed his eyes, smeared the eye droppings under the bed board, and asked.
The picture reminded Lin Li of the raisins under the desk.
What does green apple eye droppings smell like... Forget it, don't think about it.
"It's like this. Orange Liuxiang and Pineapple Chuixue have changed their families." Putting away his thoughts, Lin Li said in a deep voice.
"What! Change the court!" Lu Xiaoguo's small eyes suddenly opened wide, his face full of surprise and disbelief.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that either." Lin Li sighed.
Who would have thought that I would have to be wary of the decent protagonist in an anime? Damn system.
"Guo Li, can you tell me something? I'm very concerned about this right now." Lu Xiaoguo looked solemn.
"What?" Lin Li couldn't help but become serious.
""Change the door"...what does it mean?" Lu Xiaoguo turned around, held Lin Li's hands, and said word by word.
"..."
When their eyes met, Lin Li wanted to crush Green Apple's head—not just Lu Xiaoguo's, but also his own.
Because it was clear that this conversation had no progress at all, and Lin Li himself had a problem - he shouldn't have used idioms, this was disrespectful to Lu Xiaoguo's IQ!
"Changing families means betrayal." Lin Li took a deep breath and said.
"Oh, it turns out it was just betrayal." Lu Xiaoguo nodded with sudden realization.
"Uh... let me make sure, Lu Xiaoguo, do you understand what betrayal means?" Lin Li confirmed unconfidently, "It was Pineapple Chuixue and Orange Liuxiang who betrayed us..."
"Of course I know. My Chinese is very good. Are you looking down on my mainland poet, Lu Xiaoguo?" Lu Xiaoguo immediately denied it.
"Don't you dare..." Lin Li was helpless.
"What you just meant was that Pineapple Chuixue and Cheng Liuxiang betrayed us and defected to Dongfang Qiufei and the four evil thieves, right?" Lu Xiaoguo asked back.
"right."
"See, I understood it right. I'm so smart."
"Haha... yes... right."
Lin Li said with some embarrassment, and at the same time glanced at Lu Xiaoguo a few times: Is this a normal reaction to hearing the betrayal of a good brother he has known for a long time?
This bland reaction left Lin Li at a loss for what to say next, and all the drafts he had written were discarded.
The two looked at each other.
"Wait! Zhen Guoli! You said that Pineapple Chuixue and Cheng Liuxiang have rebelled?!" Lu Xiaoguo suddenly shouted, startling Lin Li.
"..." It was Lin Li's turn to not react and frowned.
"How is that possible! These two are my good brothers. I watched them grow up. I am most familiar with them. They are like my children!
I can choose them to be my brothers, one of which is because of their character. How could they rebel?
Is there something wrong somewhere? Did you read it wrong? ! In other words, Guo Li, don’t you understand what rebellion means? ! I can teach you, do you know "changing the family"? "
Lu Xiaoguo's tone in each half of his sentence was higher than the first half, showing his surprise.
The truth came out - it turned out that Lu Xiaoguo was not calm just now, but simply had a long reflex arc and did not react.
"No, I'm not mistaken." Looking at Lu Xiaoguo who was a little confused, Lin Li shook his head slowly, and then said:
"I don't know what happened. Maybe they do have something to hide, but Pineapple Blowing Snow and Orange Liuxiang did take the initiative to attack me tonight, and even almost killed me. I closed the door of hell and walked away several times... …
Moreover, they seem to be cooperating with outsiders to do this. Among the dangers I encountered tonight were the four evil thieves and Dongfang Qiu who defeated them.
It doesn't even seem like it started today, do you remember? I said I had a "nightmare" last night, but in fact, I now believe that those were real..."
Of course, Lin Li didn't think that Pineapple Chuixue and the others really had something to hide. The reason why he said this was because his main purpose at the moment was to persuade Lu Xiaoguo to join the battle on his side.
Therefore, Lin Li planned to try his best to stand from his perspective and optimize the content to a level that Lu Xiaoguo could understand and accept more quickly.
Including my own perspective of "understanding", it also starts from this direction.
Explaining the cause of the "nightmare" let him know that he actually doesn't have nightmares - to save his image.
"So what happened? Did Pineapple Chuixue and Cheng Liuxiang really rebel?" Lu Xiaoguo asked again as if he still couldn't believe it.
"Tonight and last night are like this. A lot of things happened. I will tell you slowly."
Lin Li began to slowly explain what happened in the past two days.
However, he ignored the specific situation of the assassin and some of his speculations about the purpose of Pineapple Blowing Snow and Orange Liuxiang.
At the same time, in order not to waste his words, Lin Li pointed out the identity of the mastermind behind Dongfang Qiubai and the four evil thieves. He only mentioned a few more words about Xiao Guoding to let Lu Xiaoguo be more careful against him.
However, Xiao Guo's status as a sidekick was really deep-rooted, and Lu Xiaoguo was a little disdainful of him.
It took a long time before Lin Li finished speaking.
"ha?"
When the story was finished, Lu Xiaoguo, who was holding the Sword of Love, had his chin on the ground, his face full of shock.
