The morning sunlight gradually shone down from the entrance of the cave, and the strong light was obscured by the lush vines, which were scattered on Qi Niang's body, casting mottled shadows. She leaned against the stone wall and slept soundly, taking away her usual heroic edges and corners, soft and tranquil, like a down-and-out goddess who had fallen into the mortal world. She was quiet and beautiful when she slew, and even a second glance felt like blasphemy. Jiang Qihan looked at Qi Niang, who was sitting opposite him, for a while, stood up, and then left the stone cave.

Outside the cave was already shining brightly with the scorching sun, and the scorching sun was baking the desert and the entire Tianxuan Sect. Jiang Qihan looked into the distance and did not find any traces. It doesn't seem that anyone is seeing their signals. However, there was no trace of worry on his face, on the contrary, he looked very peaceful.

"Pavilion Master Jiang, have you found anything?" Qi Niang also climbed up at some point.

Jiang Qihan turned around, his expression was gentle, as if the scorching sun had become dim. "Meng Meng woke up, and saw that you were sleeping soundly, so she didn't wake you up. I've been standing here for a while, and I haven't seen a single person, and the sun is fierce outside, so let's go down so as not to lose water. ”

Qi Niang saw that Jiang Qihan was not very energetic, thinking that they hadn't eaten for a day, Jiang Qihan must have been hungry since he was a child, so he asked him if he wanted to roast the lizard to eat.

Jiang Qihan shook his head and said, "It's only the first day now, if I can't stand even a little hunger, wouldn't I be a joke." ”

No matter how Qi Niang persuaded him, he refused to listen. And when the evening came, they took the withered vines of the old tree outside the cave and burned them, until the third day, when no one came to save them. The lizard has already entered its stomach, and there is nothing to fill its stomach, Qi Niang has a good body, she has been hungry since she was a child, and it is nothing to be hungry for a few more meals, and Jiang Qihan's health is not good, and he has not dripped, if it is not cool in the cave, I am afraid that Jiang Qihan's body will not last so long. However, Jiang Qihan still fell ill at night.

He was very hot, even hotter than the last attack, Qi Niang saw that his body was curled up in pain, and his chapped lips were white and bloodless. Before he even waited for Qi Niang to cross his true qi for him, he fainted, Qi Niang wiped the fine sweat on his forehead in a panic, and at the same time gave him a steady stream of true qi, but when he was also exhausted, Jiang Qihan showed no signs of waking up.

The fear in Qi Niang's heart gradually spread, she had never felt so lonely and helpless, she watched Jiang Qihan who was unconscious and struggling on the verge of death, hating her powerlessness. She held Jiang Qihan's hand, transmitted his true qi to him again and again, rested for a while when she was tired, and continued after resting. It wasn't until the middle of the night that the temperature on Jiang Qihan's body gradually dropped.

"Meng Ming...... Jiang Qihan's first sentence when he woke up was to call Qi Niang's name, he seemed to have just been pulled back from the place of death, and he was wandering, seeing Qi Niang's whole person lying on top of him, his whole body was cold, one hand held him tightly, and the cool breath had been pouring into his body uninterruptedly. Jiang Qihan's heart throbbed, and he held her hand instead, and said in a voice like a breath: "Meng Meng, that's enough, don't waste your true qi for me anymore." ”

"Pavilion Master Jiang, you've finally woken up." Qi Niang was overjoyed, and suddenly felt sad and wanted to cry, she leaned on Jiang Qihan's chest and hugged him tightly, for fear that he would faint again in a blink of an eye. She was really afraid that Jiang Qihan wouldn't wake up like this.

Jiang Qihan closed his eyes weakly, and it took a long time to raise his hand to hug Qi Niang, and smiled reluctantly, "Silly girl, it's not the first time you've seen me like this, why are you so sad?" ”

Qi Niang pressed against his chest and was silent, suddenly feeling that Jiang Qihan's heartbeat at this moment was more beautiful than what he said at any time, and even his breathing made her so reluctant. Seeing the truth in adversity is probably like this.

In the stone cave, the two snuggled tightly, although it was in such a hopeless situation, Qi Niang felt that this short embrace was also a happy thing.

"I'm thinking about one thing, do you want to know what it is?"

"What are you thinking?" Qi Niang buried herself in Jiang Qihan's chest and asked, she was reluctant to leave this warm embrace. If she could, she would like to hold him like this for the rest of her life.

"Once upon a time, I longed to be alone, to be free, to be free and free, not to care about anything, not to care about anyone's feelings. But I've changed my mind now, I don't want to be alone anymore, and if I don't have Meng Meng by my side, I feel very lonely. I want to stay by Mingming's side forever, accompany each other, want to chat and drink tea with Mingming in the courtyard every day, watch the peach blossoms with Mingming in Qihua Valley every spring, and want to wake up every morning to see Mingming's appearance...... Am I a little delusional? Jiang Qihan's voice was very soft and gentle, with a faint expectation and fascination.

Qi Niang smiled, "I don't think so. ”

Jiang Qihan asked tentatively: "Is that Meng Meng willing to live such a life with me?" ”

"Yes, yes." Qi Niang replied a little shyly and with great certainty.

"Is what Meng Meng said true?" Jiang Qihan's eyes lit up, and he didn't seem to dare to believe his ears.

Qi Niang got up from him and said seriously: "It's true. ”

Jiang Qihan sat up, his eyes were full of stars, and he was very surprised: "When I leave here, after everything is over, I will go to propose to Meng Meng." ”

Qi Niang was happy and sad in her heart, and lowered her eyes and said, "It's just me, I'm afraid I'm not worthy of the Jiang Pavilion Master." ”

Jiang Qihan shook his head and said: "I'm sick, thanks to Meng Meng not disliking me, if I really want to say it, it's that I don't deserve Meng Meng." ”

Qi Niang stared at the clenched hand on her side, and said sadly: "I entered the Red Lotus Fort at the age of 14, in order to learn a secret art, I am no longer complete, and I am with the Jiang Pavilion Lord, I am afraid that it will insult the Jiang Pavilion Lord's name." ”

Unexpectedly, Jiang Qihan took her hand, stared at her with hot and sincere eyes, and said, "Is it just for this reason?" I thought it was some kind of shocking reason. Do you think I think I'm someone who cares about these worldly things? I don't care about Meng Ming's past, as long as Meng Ming has me in her heart now, I am very satisfied, and I will not change my mind. If Meng Meng does not believe in my sincerity, then we will now use the sky as a medium and the earth as a witness to tie the knot. Saying that, Jiang Qihan took Qi Niang's hand and led her to the outside of the cave despite her surprise.

There is a bright moon hanging in the deep blue night sky, the stars are boundless, deep and bright, like Jiang Qihan's bright eyes at this moment.

Jiang Qihan held Qi Niang's hand tightly, with a hearty smile on his face, "Tonight, I am willing to use this life as a matchmaker, this life as a hiring, the two are happy, and one heart is still the proof, marry you as a wife, can Meng Meng be willing to marry each other through thick and thin, and grow old with me?" ”

Qi Niang's eyes were filled with tears, and she said, "I am willing, holding the hand of the son and growing old with the son." ”

Although there is no phoenix crown, in Jiang Qihan's eyes, tonight's Qi Niang is still beautiful.

"I will be wronged today, and in the future, I will marry Meng Ming justifiably, and let Meng Meng become my Jiang Qihan's wife." Jiang Qihan promised to Mingyue.

Qi Niang nodded heavily, and the two hugged each other tightly under the moon.

The long night suddenly became short. Just as Qi Niang was leaning on Jiang Qihan's shoulder and falling asleep, there was a sound from the stone door in the cave. Jiang Qihan was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed, and then his eyelids moved, and he opened them slowly, a pair of ink-like eyes were filled with an incomprehensible faint dark light, he quickly clicked on Qi Niang's sleeping hole, and then leaned her head on his arms.

The stone gate slowly opened, and Dugu Huang appeared behind the stone gate.

"You're finally here." Jiang Qihan's voice was a little hoarse, and he didn't look happy at all when he saw that he was saved.

"You think it's easy to find you! Fortunately, you had a premonition and told me to wait in the Western Regions for the past few days, otherwise God would not be able to save you! Without further ado, let's get out of here! Food and water have been prepared on the carriage, and I will take you back to my master!" Dugu Huang hurriedly said.

Jiang Qihan hugged Qi Niang horizontally, and as soon as he stood up, he felt a sudden cramping pain in his heart, which made his steps a little weak, he forced himself to steady, and then walked out of the stone gate without saying a word.

Dugu Huang saw that his face was not good, and said worriedly: "Brother Qihan, it doesn't matter to you, right?" It can't be sick, right? ”

“…… It's okay, let's go. Jiang Qihan's eyes seemed to have patience.

When he returned to the carriage with Duguhuang, Jiang Qihan first fed Qi Niang water, and then wrapped some dry food around her, and said, "Find a nearby town first, settle her down, and then call someone to notify Fu Xin to pick her up." ”

"Won't you take her with you?" Dugu Huang wondered.

Jiang Qihan looked at the person in his arms intently, and said, "I don't want her to see me like that, so it's better to let her go back to the Central Plains." ”

"You can be regarded as sharing the weal and woe, and if you leave quietly like this, will it hurt the hearts of other girls?"

There was a hint of sadness in Jiang Qihan's eyes, "When he comes back in the future, I will make amends to her again." If she doesn't want to forgive me, or forgets me...... Then I admit it. By the end, his voice was bitter, how he didn't want to leave her, but his body was almost at its limit.

When Qi Niang was half asleep and half awake, she suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable, struggling to wake up, but it seemed to have fallen into an endless deep pool, and she couldn't get up. Feeling weak, I found out that I had been ordered to sleep. When I woke up, I was empty.

Jiang Qihan left.

Qi Niang sadly found that her premonition was not fake, and Jiang Qihan, who said that she was going to marry her, left her silently, not even a letter left.

She ran out of the room without putting on her shoes and bumped into Fu Xin at the door.

Fu Xin is still here, which means that Jiang Qihan is still here. Qi Niang hurriedly grabbed Fu Xin's arm and asked, "What about Jiang Qihan?" ”

Fu Xin was also anxious, and said: "The pavilion master is gone, and I don't know where he went, someone told me that you were here." But when I came, I only saw the girl, and the girl didn't know where my pavilion master had gone. ”

Qi Niang shook her head as if she had lost her soul, "I had a dream and he told me he was leaving......"

"I have already informed the deputy pavilion master and asked him to dispatch all the connections of the Hanjiang Pavilion, if I find the pavilion master, I will tell the little seventh girl immediately."

Qi Niang walked back to the room silently, feeling like an empty piece in her heart.

"Fu Xin, are you all alright? Where are Bian Che and Ye Jiu? She calmed down suddenly, and now was not the time for her to be sad.

"Except for a few people who were killed, the rest of the people escaped, Bian Che and Ye Jiu are also safe, I have already asked someone to notify them to pick up the girl."

Qi Niang let out an "oh", and the whole person was depressed.
