Chapter 16: Smiling

"Mingqiu, what's wrong?" Mei Hong found that Bai Mingqiu's expression was solemn, and she couldn't help asking.

"It's not a small problem." Bai Mingqiu frowned, "The remnants of the Phoenix Blood Candle Flame have now condensed together, if you don't solve it, this thing will always be stored in your flame." ”

Mei Hong looked at the flame in her hand, and the orange had indeed not disappeared in it.

Is this what affects my power?

Mei Hong closed her eyes, her mind moved, and the flame suddenly rose, burning more intensely, and the orange and yellow of it continued to sway like a candle in the wind, but it was never extinguished.

Both of them fell silent, Bai Mingqiu's fingers clasped the table, and there was only one voice ringing in the room.

If Mei Hong hadn't deliberately moved the flame before, the Phoenix Blood Candle Flame would not have condensed, then my previous method of feeling the rhythm of the flame would have worked, and it could even make Mei Hong's strength go further. But now that the sister doesn't say it, she is actually eager to restore her strength, and secretly thinks of a way for herself, but she messes things up instead.

Bai Mingqiu glanced at Mei Hong, who was also pondering, and didn't notice Bai Mingqiu's gaze.

No, you can't blame Mei Hong, the Phoenix Blood Candle Flame itself has the characteristics of continuous aggregation, and Mei Hong just accelerates the progress of the situation, so that some kind of Cheng dΓΉ is also good, and the problem can be solved as soon as possible, if it is found late, maybe it will fall into sequelae.

Now there is only one way to solve the problem, if there is no accident, that is, to break and then stand, which depends on whether Mei Hong is willing to endure the pain and give up her own flame first.

Bai Mingqiu thought for a long time before he said to Mei Hong word by word: "Sister Hong, do you have the consciousness to pay the price?" ”

"Huh?" Mei Hong looked at Bai Mingqiu suspiciously.

"I mean, you're going to pay a little bit to get used to the sudden increase in power and solve your current problems."

"No problem." Mei Hong did not hesitate.

"What if that comes at the cost of losing your power?"

"No problem." Mei Hong repeated without thinking, "I'd rather it disappear if it's uncontrollable." ”

Bai Mingqiu looked at Mei Hong with appreciation, she deserves to be a strong person who has lived for more than a thousand years, she does not hesitate to make decisions in major matters, her eyes are bright and her vision is long-term, Fujiwara Sister Hong is really powerful.

He nodded and said, "Originally, I thought of a method, and I deduced it for a long time, and I thought it was completely feasible, but now the situation has exceeded my expectations, and the only way that can be used is to break it and stand up." ”

"How to break and how to stand?" Sister Hong's question goes straight to the point.

"Here's how." Bai Mingqiu said, "Temporarily strip your flame from your body, and then let me devour it and break and digest the power that belongs to the Phoenix Blood Candle Flame, and finally return the flame to your body." ”

"What will we become in the process?"

"If you say it, the flame ability will probably be weakened when it is stripped away, and when I return it to you, it should be able to recover immediately, as for me, you don't have to worry, I have my own means." Bai Mingqiu said confidently.

Mei Hong thought for a moment and said, "Since someone will fall into weakness, finding a caretaker is the top priority. ”

Bai Mingqiu nodded, and after about two or three seconds, the two of them said in unison: "Huiyin!" ”

Fujiwara Mei looked at Bai Mingqiu with a little joy, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Then it's settled, when are you free, sister? My opinion is to fix it as soon as possible, preferably within these days. ”

"It's just tomorrow night, I just went to tell Huiyin about this, and then explained some things."

"Okay, tomorrow night at eleven o'clock, I'll go to the temple house to find you after I get off work from Xiyue."

"Hmm." Mei Hong nodded, but maybe because she was not at ease, although she quickly made a decision with Bai Mingqiu, her expression was still a little depressed.

Bai Mingqiu sighed, seeing that his sister's red love was not very high, so he said, "I'll go into the house and get something and come back soon", ran into the house, and came back with something in his hand after a while.

"Mingqiu, what did you take?" Mei Hong didn't see what that thing was, and said curiously.

Bai Mingqiu said slyly: "This thing is going to be given to you as a return gift, guess?" ”

"Hmm... Food? That kind of bread last time? Seeing Bai Mingqiu shaking his head, Mei Hong muttered, "No... Wine? No, I just brought you the wine..."

Bai Mingqiu smiled and looked at Mei Hong's funny appearance that he couldn't guess, until Mei Hong said with some shame and annoyance, "Why do you keep staring at me", he took the things up.

It was a wood carving.

The carving is Fujiwara sister red, but it is not her three-dimensional portrait, the pedestal of the whole wood carving is a bed, sister red lying on it covered with a quilt, close her eyes tightly, the whole wood carving does not look at all the impression that sister red usually gives people a capable and heroic impression, but gives people a sense of fragility.

This is the day of the battle in the Lost Bamboo Forest, Mei Hong and Bai Mingqiu returned together, weak, lying on the bed and falling asleep, Bai Mingqiu looked like before feeding her porridge.

"It's... I? Mei Hong's eyes widened.

"Hmm." Bai Mingqiu said with a smile, "Sister Hong impressed me the most about this, Sister Hong at that time was completely different from usual, I could feel that my heart was giving me a strong signal, asking me to help you, and bear some things with you." ”

"Ming Qiu..."

"Do you remember what I said when I went to the Lost Bamboo Forest?"

Remember, you said, "Since you have gone together, you have returned together." ””

"Yes, so, don't be afraid of trouble if you have anything, just come to me for help." Bai Mingqiu smiled gently, "You have Huiyin, you have me, what are you worried about?" ”

"Okay, don't be too nervous, come and go quickly, if there are no accidents, this matter will be solved tomorrow." Bai Mingqiu comforted.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Mei Hong lowered her head.

Some thoughts are tangled in my head.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

It's not nervous, stupid. I don't want to trouble you.

Is it smart or stupid, Mingqiu, I obviously guessed it, and finally said that, in fact, are you relieving my pressure?

There is nothing that cannot be solved in front of you, even if the sky falls in front of you, you can laugh, in front of you, I have always been so fragile, so stupid, and caused you so much trouble.

It's like this every time, it's like this when we meet for the first time, and then it's all my fault again and again, obviously I'm so kind to you, it's obviously my fault, and I'm obviously to blame, but Mingqiu, you can always find a reason for me, when I'm not familiar with you, I owe you a favor, after getting familiar with you, you have to come and bear it with me, really, don't be so willful, why did you break into my world so unreasonably, I know... Obviously, as long as there is Huiyin, it will be fine!

Why... So good to me...

Bai Mingqiu's lonely back flashed in his mind that day, and the unexplained sentence "I owe you" came to mind.

Mingqiu, what does he owe me? No matter how you look at it, I owe him a favor, and he can be called a kind-hearted person to me, but he... Say you owe me.

I heard you right.

The back of Mingqiu that day was very bleak.

He didn't even want to look back at me, and he didn't have a warm smile.

Smile.

Speaking of Bai Mingqiu, the first thing that familiar people think of is probably that smile.

Warm, comfortable, like the thawing of ice, the sun shining on the earth.

No matter when, this guy Mingqiu has a good-looking smile, except for laughing, this guy has few other expressions on his face. Always worrying about others, being gentle with others, making others feel comfortable and warm, what about himself? Why does he always think more for others and less for himself?

Mei Hong's heart tightened.

Mingqiu has lived for seven lifetimes, and the things he has experienced in his life alone are worth several lifetimes for others, not to mention that he has lived for seven lifetimes? He must have had a lot of pain in his heart, but he never showed it. He is laughing, laughing at everyone, at this world, this unfair world that makes him reincarnate, not indifferent laughter, not mocking laughter, not indifferent laughter, his smile sprouts from the deepest part of his heart, it is joy and happiness, it is warmth and moisture, it is sunshine and life.

It's a gentle smile.

Mei Hong suddenly felt a thick sadness.

Compared with Ming Qiu, obviously I lived a little longer, where did I live all these years? Why do I quarrel with people and move my hands just over some small things, and I am so distressed for some small things, and I am still so hysterical in my heart? A thousand years have passed, why am I not strong enough?

It's like a child.

Mei Hong took a deep breath.

Said that you will go and return together, Mingqiu, you can't just let you be like this from now on, you are too scoundrel, you are only allowed to walk with me, don't let me go with you? You always come to help me when I need comfort and help, so don't you allow me to help you when you're sad, painful, disappointed, and upset?

Mei Hong gritted her teeth.

The bleak back in her mind couldn't be dispersed for a long time, it was the only time she saw it, the other side of Bai Mingqiu.

Later, later, I will definitely ...!

Won't let you do that again, definitely not.

……

"Sister Hong? Sister red? ”

Bai Mingqiu's concerned call came from his ears.

I guess I was worried because I didn't keep my mind.

Fujiwara Meihong shook off the mixed thoughts, looked at the man in front of her, tilted her head and thought about his gentle smile on weekdays.

The corners of her mouth gradually raised.

The learning was clumsy and stiff, but Fujiwara Meihong smiled at Bai Mingqiu.

A smile like sunshine.

Ps:

I didn't change it last night.,Let's get more yards today.,Three thousand smaller.。

Sister red, sister red, what should I do with you? How many more red and white parties should be sent out in this chapter... Excuse me, I mean Mei Hong and Bai Mingqiu.

Well, but in the context of my outline, this may be... Well... Probably... Not... It may be the last time Meihong reveals her heart, so you have to cherish it.

Half an hour later, the recommended ticket should also be refueled.

So be it.
