Chapter 296: A New Hope
Ling Yan used the link between the master and servant contract to find Ryoma, and he placed Gu Xiaoxian deep in the dense forest.
It's quiet and leisurely, and although it's not on the spiritual veins, it's better than the scenery.
There is a newly built log cabin in the lush woods, which looks like Dai Lao's masterpiece at first glance, and there is a clear stream behind the wooden house, which is quite a bit of a return to the Star City of Qianzhu Mountain.
When Ling Yan came to the outside of the cabin, Ryoma happily greeted him. Ling Yan reached out and stroked its mane, and continued to walk towards the wooden house.
Xiao Zuo and Xiao You stayed outside the wooden house with interest, and Ling Yan entered the house, only to see Gu Xiaoxian lying quietly, covered with a thin quilt, and the sun shone on her through the window.
Ling Yan walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, Gu Xiaoxian's face was ruddy, looking much better, he gently stroked Gu Xiaoxian's cheek, and suddenly felt that if he was in this wooden house, it would be good to live like this with Gu Xiaoxian.
But Gu Xiaoxian only has a lifespan of 20 years, and such a beautiful life is only 20 years.
Ling Yan looked at Gu Xiaoxian with her beautiful eyes closed, and a strong unwillingness rose in his heart, he didn't believe that there was no other way.
The path of cultivation is to compete with heaven and earth for longevity, and others can win it, so why can't she Gu Xiaoxian fight.
Thinking of this, Ling Yan stood up suddenly, and he realized that since he came here, he had not seen Dai Lao, nor had he felt Dai Lao's breath.
Ling Yan looked around, it turned out that there were still a few things on the table, just now he only cared about Gu Xiaoxian, but he didn't find that there were still things on the table.
Only then did he take a closer look at the things on the table, which were a storage bag, a jade pendant, and a note of note.
Ling Yan first activated the note, and Dai Lao's voice came out: "Xuanxing, the old man is not good at learning and can't save the girl, but the girl is not hopeless, you can take this jade pendant to the Divine Medicine Mountain to ask the head to save her, the storage bag is the medicinal materials you found this time, bring it together, it will come in handy." ”
Dai Lao's voice stopped at this point, and the note burned on its own, and after a while, it turned into a cloud of flying ash.
The jade pendant was the appearance of a medicine king, the carving was lifelike, and he didn't know what it was for, Ling Yan put the jade pendant away, and looked at the storage bag again.
There was nothing else in the storage bag except for the medicinal materials he had retrieved this time, Ling Yan secretly said that he was stingy, and then put the storage bag away.
Ling Yan didn't know where Dai Lao went, and Ryoma also said he didn't know. He was going to wait for Gu Xiaoxian to wake up, and then go to the Divine Medicine Mountain to try his luck as Dai Lao said.
In the next few days, Ling Yan and the Xiao brothers rebuilt two small cabins on the edge of Gu Xiaoxian's wooden house and lived in this way.
Dai Lao said well, but in a few days, Gu Xiaoxian really woke up.
When she opened her eyes, she saw that Ling Yan was meditating not far away, Ling Yan seemed to sense Gu Xiaoxian's movement, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards Gu Xiaoxian.
Looking at each other, time seemed to stand still, and after about a few seconds, the corners of Ling Yan's mouth flashed an obvious arc, and he said gently, "You finally woke up." ”
While saying this, Ling Yan stood up and walked towards Gu Xiaoxian.
"Ahem. Gu Xiaoxian opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but found that her throat was very dry and she couldn't make a sound at all.
"Don't talk yet, I'll pour you a glass of water. Ling Yan said a little nervously, then turned around and went to pour water again.
Gu Xiaoxian looked at Ling Yan's back, her eyes were gentle, and she felt that this scene was particularly warm.
Ling Yan turned around and found that Gu Xiaoxian was looking at him, so he smiled.
Gu Xiaoxian moved her hand and wanted to sit up, but she felt unable to use her strength, and lay down on the bed again. She hadn't moved her body for too long, and although she woke up now, her body was still very weak, and she couldn't sit up on her own.
"Ahem, ahem. Gu Xiaoxian coughed.
"Be careful. Ling Yan hurriedly stepped forward, put the water cup on the small table next to the bed, and then reached out to slowly help Gu Xiaoxian up, allowing her to sit on the bed half-leaning. Then he picked up the water cup, handed it to Gu Xiaoxian's mouth, and fed her a few sips of water.
Gu Xiaoxian drank water, and finally asked in a hoarse voice, "You, are you okay?"
"Silly girl, what can I do. Ling Yan was immediately happy, he didn't expect that the first thing Gu Xiaoxian said to himself after waking up was to ask him if he was okay.
Gu Xiaoxian also laughed, she seemed to be really relieved, in Gu Xiaoxian's impression, the last memory was that Feng Lao's heavy blow fell, and Ling Yan was still in a coma at that time.
Unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes again, she saw Ling Yan appear in front of her eyes.
"Silly girl. Ling Yan looked at Gu Xiaoxian's smart eyes, and his heart was full of emotion. He had a mixed feeling of being lost and regained at the moment, and he was almost about to lose the person in front of him.
Ling Yan stretched out his hand to comb Gu Xiaoxian's broken hair in front of his forehead, and then his hand stroked Gu Xiaoxian's cheek, his movements were very gentle and cautious, as if he was afraid that Gu Xiaoxian would disappear again.
"You, what's wrong?" Gu Xiaoxian asked softly. She raised her hand, wanting to touch Ling Yan's hand, but found that she couldn't exert her strength at all, and the raised hand fell down again.
Ling Yan shook his head and said with a smile, "It's nothing. Then he lowered his head, gently leaned his forehead on Gu Xiaoxian's forehead, and held Gu Xiaoxian's hand that he had just raised with his other hand.
Although Gu Xiaoxian felt that Ling Yan was a little strange, she didn't ask again, she just quietly accompanied Ling Yan. If she could, she wanted to hug Ling Yan, but she couldn't use any strength, so she could only sit quietly.
After a long while, Ling Yan let go of Gu Xiaoxian.
Gu Xiaoxian looked around the room and found that this place was very unfamiliar.
"We, where is this?" asked Gu Xiaoxian.
"This is a mountain range in the eastern part of the Fairy Spirit Continent, and I don't know the exact location. Ling Yan replied.
"Oh. Gu Xiaoxian nodded as if she didn't understand, and then asked, "Didn't the Wind Clan catch up?"
Ling Yan smiled when he heard this: "No." ”
"That's good. Gu Xiaoxian's memory was still stuck in being chased and killed by the Wind Clan, and she didn't know that many things happened in the middle, and Ling Yan didn't know where to start.
"I remember that the Wind Clan is not in the Northern Regions, why did we all run to the east?" Gu Xiaoxian asked again with some curiosity.
"Little fool. Ling Yan dotingly stretched out his hand and nodded the tip of Gu Xiaoxian's nose, and said, "Do you know how long you've slept this night?"
"How long?" Gu Xiaoxian asked subconsciously.
Ling Yan paused when he heard this, and said with a somewhat self-deprecating smile: "Actually, it didn't take long, only more than forty days, but I feel that I have been waiting for a long time." ”
