Chapter 8 (7)

The second day, night. Xin Ziling soaked comfortably in the warm bathtub, playing with the jade rabbit that Gong Miao gave her, thinking about the roast rabbit that Chi Qianxi had made for her and Lian Yi.

Listening to Mu Dinghua's meaning during the day, Gong Feng didn't plan to let the two get married so quickly. After all, his purpose was to cultivate and leave the Ghost Domain, and he couldn't let go without Xin Ziling's sure reply.

Now there is a plan.

She soaked in the water and meditated for a long time, but she didn't come up with a good idea. She and Gong Feng both pursued a step by step, but now they are at an impasse.

When she thought about it, she habitually ignored this matter and played with the gadgets Gong Miao gave him. It's cute, but it's even cuter if you can eat it.

She sighed, the day was not going well. I don't know what's wrong, several palace ladies in her hall can't keep up their spirits, she is also a little tired today, but she is not like them, and I don't know if those palace ladies are too tired to clean the front hall every day?

She thought about it, it seems that it is bad luck, it is the best policy to rest in the palace for a few days first, and by the way, let someone roast a rabbit tomorrow.

The water gradually cooled a little, Xin Ziling came out of the water, pulled off a plain undershirt from the screen and wrapped her body, and her long black hair was wet on her back.

She still likes to be alone at night, and now her two personal palace ladies should be idle and happy, and they can go back to the bedroom to sleep every night. But the two of them were loyal and caring, and they forced the night watchman outside the door to squeeze into the post of the night watchman, and slept outside her room every night.

It's okay, just give her a space to be alone. Even in the bath, there are people who are staring at each other with round eyes......

Turning the screen, I saw a person sitting next to the bed through several layers of veils.

Who else could be other than Mu Dinghua who entered her room so quietly. She must have thought of a good solution to the current problem, and couldn't wait to come and talk to her.

She was also about to pass over in a hurry, and suddenly remembered that she was only wearing a shirt, which was too embarrassing. He reached out and pulled a coat that was far away. Unexpectedly, this pull pulled down a table of things.

Xin Ziling paused, and when he looked up, he saw that the person sitting on the side of the bed had turned around and stood up, but his figure was not quite similar to Mu Dinghua. Crazy in her mind, if it was Mu Dinghua, there was no need to come secretly in the dead of night now, and it was when she was taking a bath.

She remembered that Mu Dinghua had said that Gong Jiuyao's death in the stone forest was a bit strange, could it be that someone was so bold as to come and harm her at night?

After thinking about it, only this explanation made sense, but the short sword she used to defend herself was a little far away from her. She watched the man's slow movements, and then looked at the distance of the sword and calculated in her mind, no matter what he was wearing, everyone was going to die, and it didn't matter if he didn't wear it.

She was lucky, and rushed towards the dagger with all her might. The man's movements were quick. She was about to touch the hilt of the sword when the man took her into her arms.

Xin Ziling was shocked, could it be that this person wanted to use brute force to cover her to death? She forgot to shout in surprise, and beat the person with her hands and feet.

The man held her tightly in his arms, his face pressed against her wet hair, "All right." ”

Well, it's strange, it's a useless one, and he doesn't have the power to fight back when he is beaten. But if she is powerless, why can't she break free?

"Alright, Ziling. ”

She was stunned for a moment, then reacted to the familiarity in her slightly hoarse voice, and looked up sharply.

Seeing the face that was close at hand, tears burst out of his eyes at once. She cried a little sadly and reached out to hug him.

Chi Qianxi was shocked, is this still the Xin Ziling he knows?

Seeing that she couldn't stop crying, he gently stroked her head and said, "I didn't wake up when I came here, but I finally woke up and found that I was an only son, and the parents died because of protecting him." There was no choice but to take care of the funeral for their son before hurrying over. ”

His face was slightly red, and he said: "It's a little bad time, I'm afraid I'll wait for you if I disturb you...... Did it scare you?"

Xin Ziling listened to him talking, silently nested in his arms for a long time, sobbing his head and asking, "How do you know that I am here?"

Chi Qianxi looked at the dragon scale hairpin on the table: "The hairpin I gave you was taken from my body, as long as we don't have space, I can still find you." ”

Seeing that Xin Ziling was still buried in his arms, the red tide on his face went straight to his neck. teased: "Do you miss me!"

"Hmm. She replied in a nasal voice, making him stunned.

This is really not the Xin Ziling he knows. Could it be ......

"Seed Feather...... Did you hit your head on the door?"

Xin Ziling finally raised her head again, with a lot of tears on her face: "Hit the door?"

She distanced herself from him: "You just hit the door! I'm fine! It's just ...... Just ......"

Her face flushed, and she couldn't say some words when they came to her lips.

Chi Qianxi, who was standing less than two palms away from her, was at a distance enough to admire her figure wrapped in a thin shirt, and he didn't know how to react for a while.

Seeing him staring at himself without saying a word, Xin Ziling subconsciously looked at himself, and instantly blushed like a boiled river cocklew.

People are easy to make mistakes when they are in a hurry, and she is in a hurry to hide in bed even though her coat is on the side. But her hand was still wrapped around Chi Qianxi's waist, as if she had pressed Chi Qianxi to the bed impatiently.

For a moment, she was on top, he was below, and their eyes were facing each other.

The night is quiet, and occasionally there are one or two insect chirps. The slight snoring of the people outside the door was heard very clearly.

The two looked at each other quietly, and Chi Qianxi raised his hand to caress her face: "I remember that there is a wound here." ”

Her wet hair was a little cool and fell against his face: "Huh?" she thought for a moment, "I can barely see it after coming here, it's a small wound." ”

Chi Qianxi let her continue to maintain this position, and coughed lightly: "What if I can't go back?"

She didn't think about it, but when he asked her at the moment, he replied very seriously: "You can't go back, it's good for you to be by my side." After saying that, his face turned red again.

Xin Ziling admires herself so much, and she is really bold in her affairs. There was a phrase about courtship that she had heard in the mortal world, and she thought it was excellent. What to say is to be "bold, careful, and thick-skinned", she thinks she has all these advantages.

Chi Qianxi's eyes lit up, and she saw the second monarch of the Chi family when she first entered the magnificent palace of the Chi family.

"However, I heard that His Holiness said that we can go back, so you can rest assured about this. Xin Ziling seemed to finally come back to her senses and crawled down from him with a red face, and crawled into the bed.

"Which one?" Chi Qianxi sat up, a smile hidden in the corner of his mouth.

"Mu Dinghua. Xin Ziling wrapped her embarrassment in the quilt.

Hearing Mu Dinghua's name coming out of her mouth very familiarly, he suddenly remembered the place where he first met her, thinking that she should have known Mu Dinghua for a long time, but why did she keep it a secret.

"I'm here this time because of some of my reasons, tomorrow...... Or tonight, the three of us can discuss how to get back, he must have a way. ”

He must have a way...... Chi Qianxi stood up with some hesitation, thinking back to her silent, melancholy, listless days.

Xin Ziling sat quietly in the brocade quilt and admired the young man in front of him, thinking that the cloth he wore on his body was also particularly outstanding by him.

After a while, he turned to Xin Ziling, looked at the girl he had been thinking about day and night, and asked, "You have known Mu Zun for a long time, have you?"

She dodged her eyes from side to side and nodded, a little afraid that he would ask about her background. She didn't want to lie to him, but she hadn't figured out what to say.

Xin Ziling's dodge looked in his eyes, and he didn't ask any more, a little afraid that something would happen to her heart that she had finally leaned towards him. He didn't care about anything in the past, as long as she was by his side.

"Then we'll go to Muzun's side now, and I'll be in his place better than going out of your room in the morning." He said in a relaxed tone: "I'll wait for you outside the door." ”

Xin Ziling breathed a sigh of relief, if he asked again, she would only have to bite the bullet and say that if the relationship with him was hurt at that time, she could only find a way to make up for it. Fortunately, he didn't ask, and she had more time to probe his tone.

When she walked out, her half-dried hair was simply tied up with dragon scale hairpins. Seeing the hairpin on her head, he unconsciously curled the corners of his mouth again.

This time, when he reached out to take her, she took his hand firmly back.

That's enough, Chi Qianxi's eyes flowed, and she held her soft and boneless hand silently and carefully. That's enough, as long as she has him in her heart.

When the two appeared in Mu Dinghua's room holding hands, he was sitting on the bed and resting. Hearing the voice, he opened his eyes, and his eyes swept over the two hands that were clasped together.

"Your Excellency. She ran to him with a smile: "Look who it is." ”

Of course, he saw Chi Qianxi, although he couldn't get excited or even happy, he still stood up very politely and put a light smile on his face: "This saves us from going to you." ”

Chi Qianxi respects Mu Dinghua very much, and this time it was thanks to him that she could find Xin Ziling, if it weren't for this, she might have suffered an accident, and she gave Mu Dinghua a blow at the moment.

"Mu Zun, I heard Zi Ling say that you know how to go back. Chi Qianxi pulled a stool for Xin Ziling and sat on another stool.

Mu Dinghua sighed, told Chi Qian Xi the whole story, and finally concluded: "So you have to let Ziling control her own strength, a little more or less can't do anything." ”

"If it can't be done for the time being, you say, can we go back to the Divine Domain?" Xin Ziling said the thoughts she had in her heart, she thought that if she went back now, she might avoid the catastrophe that her mother had saved her.

"That's not going to work. The two men spoke in unison.

Xin Ziling looked at Mu Dinghua on the left and Chi Qianxi on the right: "Why?"

"Because we already exist there, if another one of us appears, it will be directly wiped out by space. Chi Qianxi said lightly.

Xin Ziling was puzzled: "How do you know?"

Mu Dinghua sighed: "We all have unfinished business and regrets, so I went to the Divine Domain once, but it ......was a momentary thing" He stood up and pulled up one sleeve of his coat, revealing his upper arm covered with horrific scars.

"This is the result of my instant retreat, but I have just touched the edge of the Divine Domain. ”

Xin Ziling looked at the shocking scar and twitched in her heart: "Qianxi, are you too?"

Hearing her call him Qianxi, Chi Qianxi couldn't react a little, and slapped two beats to Xin Ziling's anxious gaze: "I'm the same, but it's on my back." ”

It turned out that he hadn't come to look for her earlier, and he hadn't told her about his injury just now.

Xin Ziling knew that neither of them wanted to be worried, so she tried her best to hide the worry in her eyes and diverted the topic back: "Then how can I control my power? ”

She felt that it was really unnecessary for her to control such a small force: "I sent out all my power that day, and this time it will be the same." ”

Mu Dinghua shook his head: "Today, Chi Qianxi has your spiritual power in his body, and you have my spiritual power in his body." It can't be like that day anymore. ”
