This time the symptoms were menacing, at first two days I just felt a little dizzy and weak, and then I began to sweat for a while, and in the middle of the night, I often dreamed that my whole body was lying cold in the reeds of Weishui, and Wu Feng stood on the shore and looked at me coldly. Only then did I realize that I had been "tossing" day and night for more than half a month, just to keep myself from thinking about him.

When Kuroko came to see me, he saw that I was getting thinner and thinner, and blamed me for not having broken Mingyi's spell recklessly. I laughed and listened to him, knowing in my heart that it was not the Dire Charm that disturbed my mind, but the heart disease that I had accumulated for months.

Seeing that I was in a daze all day long, Yichen took me to a medicinal soup behind the medicine garden.

This medicinal soup is located in the middle of a dense forest and is steaming hot all year round. According to Yichen, bathing here can make people feel good and comfortable. That's why I go there every once in a while.

On this day, as usual, I took a change of clothes and sat in the medicinal soup with my eyes closed to recuperate. After about a quarter of an hour, I felt a little dizzy in my head, so I opened my eyes and groped for the shore. At this time, I suddenly found that in the steaming white mist, there was a figure sitting faintly, less than two feet away from me.

I clasped my hands together and called out tentatively, "Who's there?" ”

The figure didn't turn back to me, but moved closer to me.

I was shocked, grabbed a stone by the pool with my hand, squeezed it in my hand, and scolded, "Don't come-"

A black shadow in the white mist suddenly burrowed into the water and swam swiftly towards me.

In the blink of an eye, a head appeared in front of me and looked at me face to face.

I was stunned for a moment, and then I burst out laughing, and the figure in the white mist was actually a white-haired and black-faced snow monkey, which was tilting its head to look at me at the moment, grinning as if it was scolding me for disturbing its bath.

"Little monkey, did I disturb you?" I reached out to tease it, and it took a step back with wide eyes, turned its head sideways and glanced at me.

"You wait here, I'll go and get you the fruit." I got up from the pool, changed into clean clothes and ran towards the medicine garden.

By the time I picked the fruit and ran back, the little monkey was gone. I had to put the fruit by the pool, hoping that it would be visible when it came tomorrow. The next day, I went to the soup pool early, and the little monkey was squinting and enjoying the fruit stuffing its mouth with fruit. After going back and forth, it became my most loyal "soup friend".

On this day, I took a box of candied fruit given to me by Yichen and went to the soup pool to find the little monkey. In the haze, I saw it resting on the edge of the pool as usual. I walked over softly and reached out to pat it on the head, but it grabbed it and threw it into the pool, choking several times before barely standing up.

"Hey—" I wiped the water from my face and was about to scold, but I saw a man in the mist. An unexpected but extremely missed person.

"Innocent?" I let out a tentative scream.

The person in the medicinal soup looked at me without saying a word, then reached out and pulled something out of the water and threw it out fiercely: "Stinky monkey, you only brought me here now!" ”

With a whoosh, the little monkey was thrown far away before he could let out a scream.

"You're crazy!" I yelled.

"Forced by you!" Wuxie stretched out his hand and hugged me in his arms, and said angrily like a child, "You don't want to get married, don't pretend to be dead, and say it in advance if you pretend to be dead!" ”

"How did you find here?" I was so overwhelmed by him that I tried to poke my head out and asked.

"I've been here for more than a month, and the dead old man is forced to go up the mountain every day to collect medicine, saying that he has collected enough medicine before telling me where to find you?" Innocent let go of me and said with an aggrieved face.

"You are the senior brother who went up the mountain to collect medicine as the master said?" I thought to myself, God is a trickster, I've been close to him for a month and I've never been able to see him.

"I went to the mountains a month to look for you, met the old man who fell into a trap, and saved him. He didn't repay me, and forced me to recognize him as a master and go into the mountains to collect medicine. ”

Innocent walks like walking on flat ground in the mountains, and has a keen sense of smell, so the skill of recognizing medicine and distinguishing medicine must be different from ordinary people, and Yichen will naturally be overjoyed when he sees him.

"Don't blame the master. Look, aren't you seeing me now! What about Si'er? Is she okay? ”

"Oh no, she thought you were dead, and she almost didn't cry to death holding that stinky corpse. I told her that it wasn't you, and she still held on to it. ”

"I knew it was going to be like this...... "My nose was sore and my throat was so choky, "how do you know it's not me?" The head is gone, and the body is soaked. ”

"Even if you're dead and rotten in a pile, I can smell if it's you. Besides, the corpse's finger is like a turnip, and your hand can't be as thick as that no matter how long you soak in water. ”

Although the innocent words were unlucky, I was very touched to hear them: "What about the others? They all thought I was dead. ”

"Well, Gongzi Li collected the corpse for you, and took a lot of the things you used before to go to the river to summon spirits. On the day of the conjuring, he was drunk and sat by the river for a long time, and was later carried back by Fu Shu. The next day, he came to the car and said that he wanted to take Si'er to live in his house, but Si'er refused to go, so he took away a wooden grate and a few old clothes that you used to comb your hair from, and said that the rest of the things were left for Si'er. ”

"He still thinks about helping me take care of my four children...... "My heart feels like I've been grabbed by something, and it's sore and painful."

"I know you didn't die and wanted to come out to find you, although the stinky girl didn't believe me, she had to come along."

"Si'er is here too? Where is she? ”

"This mountain is too dangerous for her to come up, so I asked her to wait in the village below!" After Wuxian finished speaking, he took off his soaked clothes and said coquettishly, "Look, this mountain is full of pits, and I have been injured all over the past month. ”

I looked at it and saw that there were more than a dozen large and small wounds on Wuxie's body, and I hurriedly got up and pulled him out of the soup pool: "How can there be a wound soaked in water!" Come with me, I'll rub the medicine for you. ”

Innocent followed me back to the residence with a grin, although there were many wounds on his body, but fortunately they were all ordinary abrasions and scratches, and the medicinal materials in the medicine garden were complete, and he should recover quickly.

Wuxian told me that he had been away from Yongcheng with his four sons for more than two months, and that they had traveled all the way east, along the Weishui Side, and finally found out about me at Fenglingdu.

"Fenglingdu? Does anyone know me there? I asked as I drugged innocence.

"When I saw people, I asked if I had seen a woman with very long, long hair, very good-looking, very good-looking. Some of them have seen it, so they told me. Innocent laughed after speaking, looking very proud.

I blushed and held my forehead weakly, he could find me with such nonsense.

"And how did you know I was taken into the valley?"

"The person who saw you said that you were following a caravan and that there was a man in the caravan who had a large sarcoma on his chin. I waited there for a few days and I arrived. ”

"And you followed them here?"

"Hmm!" Innocent nodded.

"They went out of the valley this time to pick up a batch of spices from the Chu State, and they happened to be bumped into by you. Otherwise, even if you wait for a few months in Fenglingdu, you may not be able to bump into this caravan. After I had taken care of the last wound on Wuxie's shoulder, I found a robe to drape over him, and got up to dry his wet rags again, "This place is a bit weird, Lan Ji and Yao Nu who assassinated the prince last time are from here. Although the lady in charge of the five tones promised to let me go in two months, after all, I knew too many of their secrets, and I was afraid that she would regret it when the time came. Fortunately, you're here, and if they won't let me go, I'll go out of the mountain with you. ”

"I'll take you out now." Innocent put on his robe casually and stood up with a thud.

"Don't worry, I promised others before, and I can't leave now." I pressed innocent shoulders to sit him back down, and then used my hand as a comb grate to straighten out his messy curls and tie them up with rope.

"Where do you want to go in two months?" Innocent tilted his head back and glanced at me.

"I plan to find a hidden place in Yongcheng and wait for the general to come back, and if I can't wait, I will go to the northwest to find him."

Innocent was silent for a moment, then turned to look at me: "It's all up to you, as long as you don't die, I'll accompany you wherever you go." ”

"Hmm......" I looked into his clear eyes and suddenly choked up and couldn't speak. Thousands of mountains and rivers, the end of the world is slim, there is someone willing to accompany me all the way, rain or shine, to the edge of death and the world, and then smile and separate, how lucky I am!
