Chapter 195: A Wave of Unsettled
"Hmm!" A ray of sunlight made the sleepy-eyed Zhou Zixuan slowly open his eyes.
In his eyes was a quaint house, somewhat familiar, he recognized, this was the residence of Liuli, who had been fortunate enough to stay here for one night before.
Compared with the previous rush, the house has been cleaned up and tidy.
Zhou Zixuan slowly sat up from the bed, rubbed the somewhat messy hair, and gently opened the bamboo curtain by the window.
The children were playing happily, a few women holding their clothes and were about to go to Huanxi were also chatting about family life, and some men were walking around with logs, saying hello from time to time. There are also young men and women walking hand in hand in the village or praying to the red stones, making mountain alliances and sea vows to each other, longing for the love of growing old together.
"You're awake!" the familiar voice remembered, Zhou Zixuan turned his head and looked over.
Liuli changed into a set of clothes, put on local costumes, and transformed from a forest elf to a simple Miao girl.
Liuli is dressed in a light purple long gauze skirt, long and dragged to the ground, embellished with silver accessories, wearing a jade ring around her waist, with a jade bracelet on her right wrist that corresponds to the dress, three thousand green silk is coiled into a hibiscus bun, a royal blue hosta is inserted between the hairlines, a few strands of hair around the neck, the waist is like a small man, the willow is graceful, the lips are like Fan Su, the cherry is small and exquisite, the lips are dotted with a touch of vermilion, the clean and white jade face is wiped with a little powder, the eyes are like water, clear as water, and the whole person is simple and generous.
Looking at Zhou Zixuan's straight gaze, Liuli turned around in place and said, "How is it, is it good-looking?"
Zhou Zixuan clicked many times, "It's so good-looking, it's very suitable for you!"
Liuli changed her clothes, as if her temperament had undergone some changes, the feeling of activity and brisk remained unchanged, and the whole person looked quiet and indifferent. With this hairstyle, it looks a little more mature.
"This is what my aunt made, and I hope I can wear it at the coming-of-age ceremony. Liuli sat on the bed, leaned on Zhou Zixuan's shoulder with a smile and said, "I thought I wouldn't be wearing it, but today, I suddenly felt a little nostalgic." ”
"If your aunt and daddy see it, they will also feel relieved. Zhou Zixuan replied.
"Well, they'll be able to see it. Liuli looked at Zhou Zixuan's side face, her heart also calmed down, and she really hoped that she could sit so quietly all the time, with this man, watching the sunrise and sunset.
"Is there anything wrong with your body?" Liuli took Zhou Zixuan's hand, when Zhou Zixuan and Chu Xiaoxiao were blending on the red stone, Liuli realized how important this man was to her, in front of the dark night, she kept saying that it was okay, and she said that it would be okay, but she was afraid in her heart, at that time, Zhou Zixuan and Chu Xiaoxiao's lives were already connected, if one of the two of them made a mistake, then they would both die.
So Ruri can only believe that they are fine, but fortunately, he succeeded.
"Well, I don't feel like there's anything going on, and not only that, but I feel more energetic. Zhou Zixuan clenched his fists, he felt as if he had endless strength now.
"Well, you saved Chu Xiaoxiao, let her successfully absorb the effects of the medicine, and let her, together with the medicine she took before, lay a foundation for her body and reshape her yang energy, that is, immunity. But at the same time, because the qi has reached peace, you have also absorbed her overflowing yin qi, which makes your cultivation to a higher level, which is commonly known as double cultivation, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. Ruri explained.
"Double cultivation?" Zhou Zixuan actually thought about it unconsciously, he always thought that only that was the only thing to be considered double cultivation, but he didn't expect it to work, he looked at Liuli with a wink and said, "Since the effect of double cultivation is so good, let's try it too." ”
Looking at his smile, the silver needle in Liuli's hand resurfaced.
"Well, I'm kidding. Zhou Zixuan hurriedly waved his hand.
"Whether it's martial arts or medicine, there is no shortcut to take, this foreign power will never be yours without digestion, you must continue to practice according to the ancient books left by your sister. Also, you think that double cultivation is so easy, even if I, I, I, I promise you, if there is no suitable time, place and people, it will be in vain. Ruri said with a slightly red face, and at the same time put away the needle in her hand.
"I know, I'll keep my feet on the ground. What about Chu Xiaoxiao, has she woken up?" Zhou Zixuan asked, if it was really according to what Liuli said, Chu Xiaoxiao should not be in danger of life now.
"No, she doesn't have a good physique like you, plus she has just laid the foundation, she needs to rely on the health qi in her body to recover naturally, even if she recovers, she is very weak, it is estimated that she will not wake up for ten days and half a month, and she will not be able to get out of bed without a month. ”
Liuli had seen Chu Xiaoxiao before, and had also explored her body, everything was gradually recovering, and the withered body was gradually coming to life. It's just that the consumption of the body before was too great, even if she recovers this time, she can't have a normal lifespan, even if she uses excellent medicinal materials to reshape, those thirty years is a limit.
Liuli knew, Zhou Zixuan also knew, they all knew before, but Zhou Zixuan said when he was in Wugong Mountain that even if it was only one day, he would work hard.
"That's okay, there is still some time before the Chinese New Year, I hope she can catch up with the New Year, so that she can have a better reunion with her family. Zhou Zixuan remembered the Chinese New Year, he was also a little homesick, since he went to Nanxiang University of Technology, he would only call home once or twice a month, and recently came to Yundian, and there was no contact.
"How are you going to celebrate the New Year?" Zhou Zixuan asked Liuli.
Liuli shook her head gently: "I don't have this concept, because every year during the Spring Festival, everyone has a place to go, the people they want to meet, the master goes to the capital, and the sisters also go to different places, about the sixth day of the new year, we will get together and celebrate together, and in the past year or two, it has been the same cold." ”
On this day of celebration of a hundred families, a little girl was in the empty valley, looking at the cold moon and solitary photos, there was really some desolation, Zhou Zixuan clenched Liuli's hand and said: "This year, go back with me, although it is not warm there, it will definitely not be cold." ”
"Huh?" Ruri blushed to the base of her neck, and then let out a soft "um".
"That's good, there is still a period of time before the Chinese New Year, why don't we stay here for a while, and then go to Xiangnan for a while, I don't know how Luo Xue and Meng Chenxi are doing these days. Zhou Zixuan's thoughts drifted.
Liuli was a little angry, they all sat with her, and they actually talked about other girls, although they knew that he didn't mean that, but it still made her a little angry.
"I'm afraid your plans are going to fall through for now. ”
Just when the two of them were a little embarrassed about the future, a voice came from the door.
"Night!!" Ruri was furious, "You're eavesdropping again!!"
The little glass face seemed to be about to burn and smoke, and it was dancing its teeth and claws at the night.
"Alright, you two chirp me, I can imagine it even if I don't eavesdrop" Styx smiled evilly and waved his hand, there was something very important now.
Styx became serious, and said to the two people: "Not long ago, there was a crustal movement in Shuchuan, and the intensity of the epicenter reached level eight, as for the injury, it is unknown for the time being. ”
"Earthquake?" Zhou Zixuan was shocked, he knew that Shuchuan had traveled to some scenic spots before, and thought that in the future, he could go for a walk with his girlfriend and take a look at those natural heritages.
"Eldest Sister's order has come down?" Liuli looked at the dark night, she knew that this disaster must be not small.
"Yes, since we are closest there, so, let's go first. Styx said and glanced at Zhou Zixuan again, after all, he is not their person, he may not be able to hide it when he gets there, someone will always notice their relationship, and it will also cause him some unnecessary trouble.
"Zixuan, me. Liuli didn't know how to talk to Zhou Zixuan, if before, when she was a maverick, she would just say go, but now there are some obstacles.
"Liuli, do you think I'm going to drag you down?" Zhou Zixuan looked at Liuli.
"No, that's not what I meant. Liuli was a little nervous for fear that he would misunderstand, and said: "I don't know how the situation in Shu is, I don't know if it can be in the year before. ”
"It's okay! Just like you said, the New Year doesn't have to be on the right day, as long as the reunion, it is the New Year, I also want to make a contribution, I used to be incapable, now, I think I can do something. Zhou Zixuan patted his chest and said firmly.
"Hey. Styx sighed, this stupid boy, she didn't know how to describe it, and said: "You know, it's right to help this time, but everything is not so simple, and it is not enough to keep the original intention, there are many elements mixed in it, there are politics, there are business, and many things are not so simple." If you want to go, I won't stop you, but you must be mentally prepared, compared to this kind of natural disaster, the most complicated thing is the human heart. ”
"Then is there any other point for you to go?" Zhou Zixuan asked rhetorically.
"We just do our best and don't like to do useless things, but others don't see us that way. Styx said, looked at the glass, and found that she was also a little bleak, and now there are too many people who muddy the water, so that some simple acts are crowned with various symbols.
"That's fine, I'm going to go with me too, I don't care what else there is besides the danger of aftershocks, but I'll go too, because what is not faced, I can't let Liuli face it alone, my ability is insufficient, but I can't watch her hands, whether it's the body, or... Inside!"
