"Xiaoqiu's body is too weak. By the way, there are still some at home!" Xiao Wu found some more in the stove room and boiled them.

Two quarters of an hour later.

"Xiaoqiu, wake up, drink some and go back to sleep. Xiao Wu helped Qiushui up, leaned on his shoulder, gently blew the medicinal soup in the spoon, and after confirming that it was not hot, he fed it carefully.

The medicine was a little bitter, and Xiaoqiu's spirit was a little better.

"Xiaoqiu, you rest first, I'll go boil some broth, and I'll call you later." Xiao Wu put Qiushui into the quilt and pulled the quilt.

"Hmm. Qiushui's spirit was better, but his body was cold, and his lips turned from pale to purple.

"Xiaoqiu, you wait for me, I'll come to accompany you when I boil delicious food, you are very weak now. Xiao Wu said softly.

Soon Xiao Wu came back with a bowl of hot broth, and saw that Qiushui was shivering in the bed, he reached out and found that the bed was cold.

"Xiaoqiu, how are you, why are you so cold?" Xiao Wu was very worried.

"I'm fine. Xiao Wu, where do you say his brother will be?"

"I didn't see Brother Shangguan in the valley, he should be healing somewhere. When you're more stable, I'll go out and find him. You eat something first. ”

Qiushui was silent, her brother's life and death were uncertain, and she really couldn't raise her appetite. She looked up at Xiao Wu, only to realize that Xiao Wu's condition was not much better, his injuries had not healed, and his eyebrows were full of sorrow.

"Xiao Wu, how are you?"

"I'm fine, you eat something first. ”

Xiao Wu fed the broth while it was hot, looked at the appearance of the autumn water like falling into an ice cellar, was silent for a while, and said, "Xiaoqiu, wait for me for a while, I'll go boil some hot water." ”

Xiao Wu glanced at the sleeping white fox on the side and walked away quickly.

It didn't take long for Xiao Wu to come in with a wooden bucket, and the temperature of the water was adjusted with a basin of hot water and a basin of cold water, and the room became cloudy.

"Xiaoqiu, soak in hot water to warm your body. Xiao Wu tested the temperature of the water and turned to leave.

"Wait......" Qiushui suddenly spoke, his voice faint.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't have the strength anymore. The sound of autumn water is like a mosquito, and red clouds rise on pale cheeks.

"I'll help you take your clothes off. Xiao Wu said with a red face.

Qiushui closed his eyes and did not speak, his eyebrows trembling slightly. The summer clothes worn by Qiushui, the skirt faded and there was not much left.

Xiao Wu held the girl's body, as if holding a piece of cold jade.

Qiushui sat in the barrel, her cheeks flushed with blood, she was so tired that she soon fell asleep in the bucket.

The sky was slightly bright, and Qiushui woke up, lying in the quilt by himself, with only a white fox beside him.

"Xiao Wu?" Qiushui was a little uneasy, she was still very weak, and her voice was like a bird's song.

There was no response to a few sounds, and Qiushui slowly leaned against the side of the bed, but he was unable to support his body, and suddenly fell to the ground.

"Xiaoqiu, how are you?" Xiao Wu heard the movement, rushed in, and hurriedly picked up Qiushui on the ground and carried him back to the bed.

"I called you, but there was no response, so ......," Qiushui explained in a whisper.

"I burned some porridge, you lie down and don't move. Xiao Wu came out of the room, brought back a bowl of hot porridge, held the autumn water in his arms, and fed it carefully.

"Xiaoqiu, you have a good rest here, I'll go out and see if I can find any traces of Brother Shangguan. ”

After settling Qiushui, Xiao Wu was ready to go to Nanshan again, but there was no trace of Shangguan Zhengtian around, which made it difficult for him to sleep and eat.

Qiushui didn't know where he got the strength, took Xiao Wu's hand, the two looked at each other, and Qiushui said softly: "Be careful." ”

Xiao Wu squeezed Qiushui's hand and nodded.

The wind and snow did not stop, covering everything, Xiao Wu walked quickly in a piece of wind and snow, his brows furrowed, he was speculating about where Shangguan Zhengtian would be.

The snowflakes stopped in front of Nanshan, and the black fog seemed to be two worlds inside and outside.

Xiao Wu carefully explored the road he had walked before, but he did not gain the slightest. The valley was quiet, Xiao Wu stood on the cliff, explored the surroundings, and found nothing.

"Disappear out of thin air?" Xiao Wu frowned, he couldn't explain to Qiushui.

Xiao Wu stepped forward and plunged into the valley.

There was silence in the valley, and Xiao Wu cautiously approached the center, gradually approaching the center along the bloodstains found earlier, and inferred the situation through the traces. Except for the blood stains spilled, Xiao Wu didn't find anything else, he was unwilling, he didn't want to deceive Qiushui.

The surroundings were still very quiet, and Xiao Wu seemed to have only noticed it at this moment, stepping on his footwork backwards, wanting to exit the valley.

Just as Xiao Wu stepped down on his first foot, he suddenly saw a black mist surging, and the chains condensed by the black qi poked out, sealing Xiao Wu's body and imprisoning Xiao Wu here.

Xiao Wu pulled out the broken spear, and the gun was used as a sword to stab at the chain.

While!

The chains and the iron spear were staggered, making a sound of gold and iron striking, the chain did not move, Xiao Wu broke the gun again, stared with both eyes, held the gun handle with his right hand, and put his left hand into a palm against the tail of the gun, and the break pointed directly to the darkest part of the dense fog!

Xiao Wu gathered all his strength, and when he was about to stab out, several chains turned into spears, piercing Xiao Wu's body, and blood slowly flowed down the chains.

The shadow of the sword roared, and a sword cut through the black fog, but there was nothing in the fog. The black mist closed, the sword shadow rose into the sky, and several chains intertwined out, holding the sword shadow, several times staggered, and the sword shadow was already dim.

Xiao Wu grabbed the chain with both hands, slowly pulled it out of his body, put away the broken spear, held a black broken knife in his hand, and the blood was left on the ground along his clothes, leaving a blood-colored footprint with every step.

With a loud roar, Xiao Wu slashed down with a knife and half-knelt on the ground. The black mist was like boiling water, boiling instantly, Xiao Wu's eyes showed determination, and he shook and lifted the broken knife again.

Bite!

The black chains passed through his chest, and Xiao Wu struggled weakly, like a mayfly shaking a tree.

The blood at the corners of his mouth could not stop, Xiao Wu raised his head and looked at the sky filled with black fog, his eyes full of reluctance. The shadow of the sword was already dim, and it had disappeared into Xiao Wu's eyebrows. Xiao Wu hung his hands weakly and closed his eyes.

Are you really going to die?" Xiao Wu thought to himself.

He was so weak that he didn't seem to have the strength to fear.

Maybe the only thing that can move is consciousness, at this moment, the figures of parents and Qiushui flashed in their minds, but they went farther and farther.

No one noticed the charm that suddenly appeared in the palm of Xiao Wu's left hand, and as soon as it appeared, it turned wildly, and the lake in the middle of the valley rippled, slowly setting off the waves, and the black fog faded, and the chains were still nailed to Xiao Wu's body, and the sound of blood and water seemed to overwhelm the sound of the waves.

Crash!

The surface of the lake set off a monstrous wave, faintly heard a mournful roar, and the huge waves rose into the sky, breaking the sky and endless black fog.

The chains nailed to Xiao Wu's chest turned into black mist and slowly dissipated.

Xiao Wu took a deep look at the surface of the lake, and at a certain moment, there was a strange feeling there, and he wanted to feel it carefully, but it seemed that he had never appeared.

After a short rest, or a few breaths, Xiao Wu covered his chest and slowly left.

......

Xiao Wu lay in the river cave of the city wall, checked his condition, smiled bitterly, and said secretly in his heart: "You can't go back like this." ”

Glancing at the sky, it was not yet twilight, Xiao Wu sat cross-legged.

When the sky was dark, Xiao Wu came in through the courtyard wall, and slowly exhaled, Xiao Wu shouted: "Xiaoqiu, I'm back." ”

There was a soft response from the house, a little weak. Xiao Wu hurriedly pushed open the door, and saw that Qiushui's face was still pale, and at this moment, he saw that he was a little weaker, and the white fox on the side was still asleep.

"Why don't you eat the fruit left?" Xiao Wu frowned.

"It's okay, I'm not hungry. Qiushui shook his head slightly, and then asked, "Have you found your brother?"

Xiao Wu's face darkened a little, and Qiushui was silent when he saw this.

"I'm going to cook some food first. Xiao Wu broke the silence.

Holding the steaming meal, Xiao Wu helped Qiushui up and fed it carefully.

"Are you injured?" As soon as Xiao Wu approached, Qiu Shui asked the faint smell of blood.

"Eat first, I'm fine. Xiao Wu handed the food to Qiushui's mouth, watched Qiushui eat it one bite at a time, and finally the injury that had been suppressed for a long time broke out at this moment, and blood spat all over the ground.

"Xiao Wu!" Qiushui exclaimed, wanting to get out of bed and help.

"I'm fine, don't come down. Xiao Wu's voice was a little weak, he suppressed Qiushui, who wanted to get up, and continued: "I'm healing on the side, you have a good rest, eat this when you're hungry." ”

As he spoke, Xiao Wu left all the spirit fruits beside the Qiushui bed.

"Xiao Wu, what's wrong with you?" Qiu Shui tears fell.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine soon, tell me how everything is going with you?" Xiao Wu looked into Qiushui's eyes.

"Okay, as long as you're hurt. Qiushui nodded tearfully.

Xiao Wu no longer deliberately pretended to be fine, and staggered out of the room, Qiushui looked at the back of the leaving, his eyes were red.

Xiao Wu came to the main hall, first ate a few bowls of food, and then sat down cross-legged, with the help of the aura to recover from the injury, and the warmth in the lower abdomen reappeared.

As the sky turned bright, Xiao Wu got up and came to Qiushui's bedside. Qiushui's face was still pale, and there were mottled tear stains on his cheeks, which Xiao Wu gently wiped away.

A pair of autumn eyes slowly opened.

"Xiao Wu!" Qiushui hugged Xiao Wu.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Xiao Wu patted Qiushui's body and comforted softly.

......

"Hongdou, is there any news of Xiaoqiu?" Shangguan Zhengtian's tightly knit brows never loosened.

"You said that Xiaoqiu was with a teenager, would they be hiding somewhere?" the girl asked.

"They ......" Shangguan Zhengtian hesitated, after all, he didn't elaborate, he didn't want the family to be involved, "they won't hide, if they don't have an accident, they should be looking for me." ”

"Everyone over there is searching, you can recuperate in peace. I know you want to go over, but if you go like this, it will distract the people over there to take care of you. Red Bean comforted with a stroke of his forehead.

"But how can I ......" Shangguan Zhengtian's uneasy look was even more obvious.

"Alright, alright, I know. Well, wait for tomorrow, and if there's still no news, I'll take you there. Hongdou said helplessly.

"Thank you, Red Bean. "Shangguan Zhengtian is right.

"Stop, thank me a dozen times a day, I can't stand you anymore. The girl was annoyed.

......

"Xiaoqiu, tell me how your injuries are okay?" Xiao Wu grabbed Qiushui's little hand, and the scar on it was still eye-catching.

"This wound is ......"

"You know that's not what I'm asking. ”

Qiushui looked in a trance, as if he was reluctant to speak, Xiao Wu took him into his arms and whispered in her ear: "I have experienced life and death, and in addition to my father and mother, there are also you in my mind. I can't forget you for the rest of my life. ”

Qiushui shook his head slightly, and his voice was lost: "I only have three years left, I'm very happy to know you, I'm not worth your effort." ”

Xiao Wu hugged the person in his arms tighter and said, "I want to marry you when you are sixteen years old, so can you live well?"

Qiushui was stunned for a moment, cried bitterly, and muttered: "It's not worth it......"

Xiao Wu cupped Qiushui's cheeks and kissed his lips together.

"Xiaoqiu, promise me, okay?"

"Hmm. ”

"Tell me what's going on with your body, okay?"

Autumn water falls into memory, and time goes back to the night five years ago.

The huge courtyard is brightly lit like daylight, and a handsome young man is practicing boxing, and the aura between his fists is stirring, like a swimming dragon, and each punch is swung out, accompanied by a low dragon groan.

A girl on the side, barefoot, half a foot off the ground, watched the young man boxing intently, clapping her hands from time to time and shouting: "Brother is amazing." ”

A dark shadow swept out of the darkness, like a sharp sword, to the boy.

"Brother be careful!" the girl exclaimed, her figure fluttering in front of the boy.

"Xiaoqiu!" the young man cried out sadly, the black clouds in the sky condensed, and the sound of a dragon groaning was faintly heard.

The shadow slammed into the girl's chest with all her might, and the girl vomited blood and flew backwards, then fell into a coma.

When she woke up, the elders of the family gathered around the girl, all shaking their heads and sighing, and the doting in their eyes turned into regret.

The girl looked around, but she didn't see the teenager, she didn't see her parents, and the pain in her body made her unconscious again.

When the girl woke up again, she found herself lying in her room, and the rest of her life was nothing but pain and bitterness.

The girl wants to go out to find the boy, she wants to go out to smell the flowers and listen to the birdsong, but no one cares what the girl thinks, and the girl's life is confined to this room.

Until one day, the door was opened, and sunlight shone into the dimly lit room.

It was the young man who knocked over the guards and rushed in, he said, "Xiaoqiu, come with me, I will definitely heal your injuries!"
