Chapter 54: Grow up quickly, because you are prosperous
In the room, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang swallowed the last two pills, which were still Zhu Yuanguo.
The entrance of the medicine pill turned into a warm current, which rushed into Xia Xiao's body and began to flow in all directions, making him feel a burst of warmth, and even a little feverish. With the mysterious power in the forest, Xia Xiao's injuries recovered quickly, and his wounds healed at an obvious speed, leaving only an inconspicuous scar in the end.
When the injury was almost recovered and his vitality was full, Xia Xiao entered the forest.
Today was different from the past, the clouds that had been hanging over the forest for a long time had dispersed, and the sun was shining brightly. The winds in the forest have also disappeared, and the gentle breeze has been restored. The forest is incomparably fresh, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, Xia Xiao has not seen such a forest for a long time, walking in it, and he is in a happy mood. But the disappearance of clouds and wind means that Jumang has lost the power of thunder and wind?
"Jumang?"
Xia Xiao shouted, but did not respond.
"Strange. β
Usually, as long as Xia Xiao comes to the forest, Ju Mang will fly excitedly for the first time, no need to shout at all, what's wrong today?
Passing through a familiar path, Xia Xiao walked to the altar, and said that Mango was really here!
"Jumang. β
Xia Xiao screamed softly, but he didn't turn back to his sentence.
"Huh?"
Xia Xiao walked over, bent down and turned his head to look at the little guy. He stood on the east side of the altar, a pair of wings together, as if guarding something.
This was the first time Xia Xiao had seen him so serious, his chubby little face was full of seriousness, and he was frowning. And in front of him, in the center of his wings, there was a small branch. The dark golden branches, with three steel-like leaves, weren't they the ugin growth leaves that Ju Mang had brought from Hushanzhai!
Ju Mang was extremely focused, and there was sweat running down his forehead, but it was quickly evaporated by the breeze. He can still control the wind, as you can see in his hair. Ju Mang's dense hair all floated to the back of his head, very flowing, similar to his cheerful personality.
Xia Xiao couldn't bear to interrupt, so he sat on the side and waited for him quietly.
"Grow up quickly, grow up quickly, take root and sprout......"
The constant murmuring of sentences was heard by Xia Xiao, like chanting a mantra.
"Xia Xiao Xia Xiao, help me!"
Jumang rarely calls Xia Xiao's name, which shows that the situation is special at this time. Xia Xiao listened to it and went over immediately.
"How can I help, you say!"
Xia Xiao's tone was like a brother helping each other, without the slightest bit of the strength of the spirit deed master. Ju Mang was not polite, and said in a young man's voice:
"Gather energy!"
"Good!"
In the inn, Xia Xiao, who was shining in the sun, had already laid down to rest, but he sat up again, his hands formed a "he" seal, and began to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth.
Shu Shuang on the bed saw it, and got up in a daze, and the back of her white tender hand blocked the small mouth and snorted. They didn't rest much last night, and they fought for a long time in the morning, and they should have slept after recovering from their injuries at this time, but Xia Xiao just lay down, why did he start cultivating again?
"It's so hard, I have to keep up, I can't hold back. β
Shu Shuang muttered, and a mark formed on her slender fingers.
Soon, an hour passed, and Xia Xiao entered the forest.
"Is there enough energy?"
"It's not enough. β
"Got it!"
Xia Xiao once again formed a handprint and continued to accumulate vitality. According to common sense, the desolate beasts that have signed a spiritual pact with humans cannot invoke their vitality through humans, but can only fight through humans. But Jumang can, it breaks the well-known law of master and servant, and it seems that this is the real spiritual contract.
A pair of wings made a heart-holding shape, and the vitality absorbed by Xia Xiao was fused with the power of Jumang and his own wood, and entered into the branches inserted in the ground.
In the face of the power of the wood that promotes growth, the branches like metal are still indifferent, but Jumang's pair of big shining eyes always stared at it, and showed a force that must be done.
I don't know how long it took, when the sky outside the window was dark, Xia Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay?"
In the forest, when Xia Xiao asked, Ju Mang resumed his usual chatter, ran to his side, and led him towards the altar.
"Look!"
Standing next to the Ugin growing leaves, Ju Mang was a little proud. Xia Xiao couldn't see anything unusual, and only when his palm touched the ground did he find that this small branch had grown a stable root system in the ground.
Seeing this, Xia Xiao looked at Ju Mang incredulously.
"Can this all work?"
This Ugin growth leaf has dried into an iron rod, can it still live?
"Awesome, right?"
"Awesome. β
Ju Mang sat next to it, lying on the ground, exhausted. Xia Xiao accompanied him and lay down and looked at the sky together.
"Grow up, grow up. When it grows into a small tree, I can metamorphose. β
"What will the metamorphosis become?"
"I don't know, but I have a wonderful feeling, I guess I'm tall and handsome!"
"Then I'll wait for you to grow up. β
"Okay, okay. β
Xia Xiao squinted in the sun, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. When Jumang grows up, the power of Mu Xing that he can use will definitely be stronger. This will be the guarantee of passing through the Valley of All Souls!
Under the warm sunlight, Xia Xiao lay down for a while and returned to the room.
It was already dark, and Shu Shuang fell asleep after practicing for a few hours, and just woke up at this time, squinting sleepily and with a sweet voice.
"You're working too hard, do you want to get some sleep?"
"No, go out to eat, find a new place to live by the way, this place is too remote and inconvenient. β
Shu Shuang nodded, got up and dressed, they were only going to stay here for five days. Now it's time, it's time to move out tomorrow!
Xia Xiao's recovery speed cannot be understood by ordinary people's knowledge, he was seriously injured in the morning, and he was able to go out normally at this time. Shu Shuang was still worried about him, so he took his arm and walked on the road with a bright smile.
Glancing at it, Xia Xiao also smiled slightly.
"Where are we going to stay?"
"The city center, although a little more expensive, but a lot more convenient. Or look at the rental notice, there is always a place to live in such a big city. β
Seeing Xia Xiao walking towards a tall building, Shu Shuang was stunned.
"Is there a house over here?"
"Fill your stomach first. β
The stairs were full of people, Xia Xiao stood in front, and Shu Shuang followed closely.
Rongcheng, a city with red lights and green wine, has never lacked romantic places, and the hotel that Xia Xiao came to at this time is.
The faΓ§ade is exquisite, the seats are far apart, and there are delicate ornaments next to each one, which quickly attracts Shu Shuang's attention.
"Do you want to go in? It looks so expensive. β
Pulling her wrist, Xia Xiao went straight inside.
"You have to treat yourself. β
If there was no Shu Shuang, Xia Xiao really wouldn't come, this way of treating was a bit extravagant. But just like the second sister said, girls will not refuse warm romance.
Sitting by the window, Shu Shuang's two little hands were on the edge of the window, looking at the brightly lit street outside.
"It's so prosperous. β
"Because of your prosperity"
"Why?"
Shu Shuang sighed, looked at Xia Xiao, and listened to his serious answer.
"On the first day I came to Rongcheng, I came out alone to find Yinghu, I didn't have the heart to appreciate the prosperity here, I just felt that there were a lot of people, and I practiced all night at night. When I went to Wudou City the next night, I didn't have the heart to look left and right. On the third night, you've been absorbing Yinghu all day, but you still haven't woken up. On the evening of the fourth day, we were all preparing for the battle. β
Although Rongcheng is not as good as the imperial capital, it can't set off too much turmoil, and it is quiet and desirable.
Looking out the window, there are many tourists in the nearby stalls, and a few cries are heard from time to time. The houses in the distance were lit up with lights, and a little smoke wafted up, twisting and twisting in the twilight, and finally merging with the night sky.
"Xia Xiao. β
Shu Shuang's voice was soft, and Xia Xiao turned his head when he heard it. She propped up the table with her small hands, leaned forward, leaned over and kissed Xia Xiao. For her, no matter how beautiful the city is, it is not as good as him at the table.
When a warm and soft breath appeared on his lips, Xia Xiao felt a fragrant aroma that penetrated his heart and spleen. Then he froze in place, his eyebrows lowered.
Under the warm light, the girl without rouge blush closed her eyes and blushed slightly. Master is right, after seeing Xia Xiao, she will become more and more brave, and now is the best proof.
After living for so long, Xia Xiao was kissed by a girl for the first time, and this feeling was a bit amazing. He originally refused, because there were many things waiting for him in front of him, and he shouldn't have fallen in love at this time. That kind of thing is a roadblock for everyone, and it's kind of like an excuse for failure.
My heart was very chaotic, but I quickly regained my calm.
Xia Xiao looked at Shu Shuang, who opened his eyes, bit his lip when he saw his eyes, and hurriedly sat back in place.
"I'm sorry. β
Shu Shuang was a little embarrassed, there were too many people here, and would Xia Xiao not like him like this? It's annoying, he should be a little more reserved. Shu Shuang regretted it, she was too impulsive just now, but in the past four days, Xia Xiao has always revolved around her. Even if she has been asleep, she may feel Xia Xiao's unwavering protection. That sense of security made her feel like she had a home.
The waiter holding the menu on the side was stunned, he didn't come at the right time, he understood! So he turned around as if he hadn't been.
"A la carte. β
Xia Xiao coughed dryly, pursed his lower lip, and laughed evilly. This feeling is still quite good, but Shu Shuang on the other side has buried his little face in the palm of his hand, and he can't raise his head in shame.
"Shushuang, what do you want to eat?"
"I'll eat whatever you eat. β
Xia Xiao ordered a few dishes, and saw Shu Shuang look at himself with his fingers crossed. At this time, the eyes were a little embarrassing, Shu Shuang laughed directly, he was so stupid, would Xia Xiao dislike himself in the future?
"It's time to eat. β
Shu Shuang nodded again and again, she was a little clumsy when she usually did anything, and Xia Xiao felt funny when she saw it.
"Shu Shuang, what do you want?"
Shu Shuang's cheeks were stuffed, but he frowned and shook his head in a panic. Xia Xiao stretched out his hand, this time it was Shu Shuang who was stunned, and he brushed the bangs next to Shu Shuang's face, making the latter smile sweetly.
After eating, they found a place to stay, and when they returned to the distant inn, Xia Xiao suddenly said:
"Wait a minute. β
Seeing Xia Xiao suddenly turn around and fly away, Shu Shuang was a little puzzled, but he still stood on the side of the street and waited for him to come back. It's not early now, and there are a lot fewer people on the street, Shu Shuang has her hands behind her back and her smile is very sweet. The next time I see Master, she can proudly tell him that I have learned to like someone!
Xia Xiao moved quickly, and when he came back, he put his hands behind his back.
"Guess what?"
"Flowers?"
There was some expectation in Shu Shuang's eyes.
"In the evening, the flower shop closes early. β
"What's that?"
"Give. β
Xia Xiao took out a string of sugar gourds, and when Shu Shuang saw it, she laughed out loud. The sugar gourd is not expensive, and the child's pocket money can buy several strings, but what she cares about is that Xia Xiao remembers what she said.
On the way back, the usual silence returned, and the sound of chewing rock candy was crisp and cheerful.
"Ahh
