Ji Li rolled up his long sleeves, rubbed his palms and was eager to try, looking left and right on the side, squatting in the corner to observe. When the hot dish was served, she sniffed it, and as she had thought, it was really mouth-watering. Her eyes were shining, but she didn't want to be looked down upon by Jiang Wen from the bottom of her heart.

Taking advantage of Jiang Wen's turn, he drew a scoop according to the gourd, learned his movements, scooped a spoonful of oil and poured it into the pot. She didn't notice that there was still water in the pot at first, the hot oil was bubbling and splashing, and a few more red spots suddenly appeared on the back of her white hands.

Swallow the cry of pain back into your stomach, pick up the ginger and warm cut vegetables and pour them into the pot, stir-fry back and forth. However, more hot oil splashed out, and she panicked, jumping in place, and kicking out a few sparkling firewoods without noticing. Her clothes were fireproof and waterproof, but they hurt a lot on her soft skin.

Sparks splashed everywhere, and many things were ignited in an instant, and the flames spread out. Ji Li casually picked up the water jar next to him and poured it towards the fire, but he didn't know that there were a lot of fish in the tank......

Jiang Wenben stood at the door with his hands on his chest and watched, his calm mask instantly cracked, and he was stunned when he looked at this scene. He wanted to see what kind of drama this girl could make, but he actually destroyed his house directly.

The hall was in shambles, the fire had been extinguished, but the ground was full of stagnant water, several fish were still struggling in the pool, and the vegetables he had cut before were flying everywhere.

And the culprit who caused all this was touching his cheeks and showing an embarrassed smirk, and after seeing him, he waved his little hand in a panic and explained, "Jiang Gongzi, I... I just wanted to help you... Hey, hey, hey...... I really didn't mean to! ”

Jiang Wen looked at her, swallowed the words that were originally ready to tease her, and turned them into sighs, "There is a basin of water on the stone table in the courtyard, which can be used for washing, you go out first, and leave it to me here." ”

"Well, why don't I clean up this place first?"

She asked cautiously, but when she received Jiang Wen's gradually unkind eyes, she immediately spread her feet and ran out.

"Slow down, watch your step, there's ......"

'Plop'

'Bang'

"Ouch! It hurts! ”

"There are stone steps." After Jiang Wen finished speaking, he looked outside and asked, "Ah Li, are you okay?" ”

"Huh? I'm fine! ”

Listening to her loud response outside, Jiang Wen sighed again and resigned himself to starting to clean up.

In the hospital.

Ji Li rubbed his aching buttocks and got up from the ground, and looked around, there was indeed a wooden basin on the stone table.

She looked at the reflection on the water and was stunned, and then let out a miserable scream.

Jiang Wen ran from the house, only to see Ji Li's eyes pointing ahead in horror, he thought that danger was coming, and there was a faint light flickering in his right hand behind him. Just as he was about to speak, Ji Li rushed over from there, hugging his waist and refusing to let go.

"Wow! It's terrifying! ”

Jiang Wen released his spiritual sense, but he didn't notice that anyone was approaching.

"Ah Li, what's wrong?"

She raised her dirty little face and wiped it with the back of her hand, tears falling down her cheeks, "My face is ruined!" ”

In just a few hours, he sighed for fear that it didn't add up to as much as the first half of his life.

Jiang Wen held her hand, pressed her on the stone bench and sat down, and after saying 'wait for me', he went back to the house and took a handkerchief out, soaked it in water, and wiped it for her carefully.

Ji Li looked at his eyebrows, her eyes gradually blurred, and the sound of 'bang' heartbeat was endless, but she didn't understand what it meant.

She grabbed his wrist, "Jiang Gongzi, I seem to be sick." ”

"Sick? Can hairpins get sick too? ”

He tore her little hand from her face, turned behind her, and untied her messy bun, put his fingers between her hair, and re-groomed it.

"It's jumping so fast here." She pointed to her heart, her face worried, and instead stroked her hot cheeks, "It's so hot here, too." ”

Jiang Wen couldn't help laughing, she lowered her head and sobbed, "What are you laughing at?" Do you think I'm a burden? ”

Although he did not answer, his hand movements did not stop.

After a few moments, he cleaned his hands, took the only remaining plate of fish and meat in front of her, and set up two bowls of rice and two pairs of chopsticks.

"Eat."

Ji Li picked up the chopsticks in a daze, thinking that it would be very rusty, but who knew that the movements in his hands were very skillful.

Jiang Wen saw this scene and didn't say much.

Pick up a piece of fish meat and taste it shallowly, soft and smooth, delicate and no fishy smell, sweet and spicy, and have an endless aftertaste.

"It's really delicious!"

"Then eat more." Jiang Wen smiled dotingly.

"Uh-huh."

Ji Li forgot the previous embarrassment, picked up the chopsticks and feasted, his cheeks bulging, and he didn't care about chewing slowly as a daughter.

Seeing this, Jiang Wen got up and walked back and forth, walking with a bamboo tube in his hand, and looked at it about the size of a palm.

Ji Li took it from his hand, "What is this?" ”

"A spring in the mountains."

Ji Li didn't doubt that he had him, so he unscrewed the lid and drank it directly, and his mouth was sweet.

"Pretty tasty, isn't there?"

"That's all there is to it, if you like it, I'll pick it up tomorrow."

"Okay!"

Ji Li smiled, and his simple and harmless appearance fell in Jiang Wen's eyes, but his heart was quite unpleasant.

After finishing the meal, Jiang Wen returned to the hall and cleaned up, and Ji Li no longer added to the chaos, and flew to the opposite roof, holding his cheeks with his hands, looking at the busy figure through the window, and a sense of guilt arose.

Looking up at the crescent moon in the night sky, I missed Meng Po more and more.

After Jiang Wen had packed everything up, he climbed up the stairs to the roof and draped his cloak over her.

There was more warmth on her body, and she came back to her senses, "Jiang Gongzi, thank you." ”

"What are you thinking?"

"Homesickness, Shushu said, where there is a father and mother, it is home. I don't have a father and mother, only Sister Meng Po and my gluttonous brother. ”

“......”

"Jiang Gongzi, you said that there are only us here, so who are you here for?"

Jiang Wen's eyes were hesitant, "I have gone through a lot of hardships, but the person I am looking for has passed away." ”

"Dead? Why? ”

"The lifespan of the human race is not comparable to that of the demon race, although it can be cultivated, it still cannot be compared."

"And how can this valley exist? I've never heard Sister Meng mention it. ”

Jiang Wen's lips opened and closed several times, and his hesitation was beyond words.

"It was the soul seeker who brought me here, and I don't know why."

"Is that really your sweetheart?"

"Sweetheart? I don't know. But her death is no different from being killed by my own hands. ”

Jiang Wen's eyes were complicated, in addition to helplessness and regret, there was more guilt and relief, and two emotions that should have been extreme appeared in his eyes at the same time.

Ji Li originally wanted to tease him, but even if he had a thousand words at the moment, he didn't know how to say it.

She raised her hand and patted her on the shoulder, a little rusty.

"Then why are you looking for her?"

"I'm afraid she's too lonely."

"That ......"

"Alright, it's late, I've cleaned up your room."

Seeing him leaving, Ji Li shrugged, "This person is really inexplicable, he looks weak, and he dares to kill." ”

She jumped from the roof of the house, and followed Jiang Wen to her room, which was neither ornate nor shabby. It doesn't look like a guest room, but like a woman's boudoir.

On the two long candlesticks in front of the door, there are two marquee lamps that are very similar to the soul seeker. Directly in front of her was a vermilion sunken wood, and there was a blank scroll hanging on the wall above, and she looked closely, and in an instant there seemed to be a light in the painting, and she rubbed her sour eyes, and found no abnormality.

Beyond the screen, she lifted the light veil, which was full of wooden vanity mirrors and other things, and a few yellow flowers were placed in the vase, fresh and comfortable. The window on the left side is fan-shaped, and if you stand in front of the window, you can smell the fragrance of fruit in the garden not far away. The outside of the bed is tied with a pink veil with a ribbon, and the bed is covered with a light red brocade quilt.

Inside the screen on the right is a wooden tub filled with hot water, which is now emitting a rising mist.

Jiang Wen didn't come in, stood outside the screen and said to her, "I have prepared hot water in the bathtub, and I will pour it again tomorrow." ”

"Wait."

"How?"

"Jiang Gongzi, was this the place where your sweetheart lived?"

Jiang Wen was silent outside for a moment before responding softly, "Yes." ”

"Then why are you willing to let me live?"

"The house is dead, the person is alive, not to mention that there is no extra guest room for you to live in."

"I see."

Jiang Wen didn't reply again, he should have left.

Ji Li looked at everything strange around her, her heart was quite uncomfortable, and she missed Meng Po more and more.

When she opened the closet, there were a lot of women's clothes in it, but she could change her clothes on her own, which didn't help her.

She folded her hands and walked around to look, "This sister, Ji Li didn't mean to occupy your room, sister, don't be angry!" When I find my friend, I'll leave. If you haven't been reincarnated yet, when I return to Huangquan, I will definitely go to Sister Meng Po and ask her to give you a good afterlife. ”

Outside the house, Jiang Wen did not leave, he covered the door for her, sat on the stone steps, took off the wine jug at his waist, raised his head and poured a long sip, the wine inside seemed to be gushing, and finally he couldn't drink it.

......

In the next few days, Hi Li had searched for Leshu all over the mountains and fields, but unexpectedly, the search was fruitless. After the disappointment, she worked with Jiang Wen in the orchard and vegetable garden, working at sunrise and resting day by day.

It is completely different from when I was in Huangquan, and my heart is full of a lot.

Jiang Wen has always been gentle and polite to her, and has never crossed the line, but Ji Li always feels that there seems to be something in his heart that is difficult to let go. Especially when facing her, this feeling is more and more obvious. But if you block and ask, you can't ask why.

And Jiang Wen found that his feelings for Ji Li gradually changed subtly, not to mention that he couldn't contain it, he didn't even know when he was moved by that girl.

He put the small shovel aside, cleaned his hands, picked a green fruit and ate it himself.

Jiang Wen handed her the bamboo tube, she smiled and unscrewed it and drank it, "I always see you running towards the mountains before dawn, it's cold there, why don't you take more every time?" ”

"It's late and there's no dew."

"Huh? Dew? ”

"Well, you said you fed on demons and dew when you were in Yellow Springs. There are no evil spirits in this mountain, only dew. ”

Ji was moved, threw herself into his arms, and raised her head with a smile, "You are so good to me, I am reluctant to leave." ”

Jiang Wen was used to her rudeness, "You want to go, but you can't." ”

"That's just as well."

"Ah Li, do you feel that you have been staying for a long time, and it is a little boring?"

"That's not it, the territory here is vast, there are flowers, birds, fish and insects, and you, how can it be boring! Well, I'm just a little worried. He was badly wounded, and if he was found by Lesha, he would surely be killed. Ji Li said worriedly.

Jiang Wen's smile froze, "You can't get out after all, you don't have to worry too much." Maybe he'll be as lucky as you are, and he'll be saved. ”

"If that's the case, it's great."

Jiang Wen turned calmly and continued to clear the newborn weeds, leaving him to chirp beside him, but his heart was like falling into an abyss, and then turned into a sigh. Ji is happy and happy, and he doesn't know whether to be happy or worried.

......

It was night, there was no moon, and the cold wind was howling.

Ji Li curled up in the bed, tossing and turning to endure sleep.

In recent days, she has always had strange dreams, fragments of which are broken. Whenever she woke up, she couldn't remember her dreams, but the suffocation was real.

Meditating cross-legged and pranayama, but the feeling of sleepiness still came as promised.

She took off the ring on her hand, injected spiritual power into it, and the next moment, the ring turned into a streamer of light and flew into her spiritual consciousness.

'Ah Li, try this, it's sweet and sour, and it can help you satisfy your cravings. ’

'This dress looks really good on you, and others don't have half the color of you.' ’

This is called the lotus lantern, and it is rumored that it flows along the Haichuan River and can flow into the Yellow Spring Styx to send lovesickness. ’

'I have walked thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, and I have seen the stars fall all over the fields and the snow fall into the sea. I will definitely show you all the prosperity of this world. ’

'A pot of wine is not as good as your smile to relieve a thousand sorrows. ’

He chose his people and forsaken you. Although I can't abandon the world, I am willing to return to the Yellow Spring with you. ’

Listening to these ethereal voices, Ji Li was surprised, aren't these Jiang Wen's voices? When did he tell her this? It's obviously familiar, how could she not remember?!

In order to save people, my father and mother killed the shameless thief, who knew that the root cause of the curse was born, in exchange for endless hunting and killing, and even caused a war between humans and demons. Our Tingci clan was punished by heaven, and since then they have been locked up in Huangquan Purgatory and never seen the light of day again. ’

Extraordinary? Is it a special voice?!

The headache was unbearable, and somehow, the sadness and pain spread in the bottom of my heart, and the rich was about to melt away.

"Ah Li, Ah Li......"

"Extraordinary? Is that you? I'm so scared! ”

Hearing Leshu's voice, she ran wildly in the dark, obviously his figure was close in front of her, but she never touched it.

"Ah Li, don't panic, I'm here."

Leshu's voice was vague, and he couldn't find the source of his voice.

"Where the hell are you? I've been trapped in the valley and searched everywhere, but I haven't found your whereabouts. How are your injuries? Did Lesha hurt you later? ”

"Rest assured, he is no longer there now, Ah Li, take care of yourself."

He stopped, waving his hands in the dark, but couldn't touch him.

"Extraordinary? Are you still there? Extraordinary?! Why don't you answer me? ”

Ji Li panicked for no reason in her heart, and the flowers at the center of her eyebrows gradually appeared, and her eyes suddenly became clear.

But as far as the eye could see, her already scarred heart was shattered again, and blood was dripping ......

Obviously, as an insider, Ji Li can't intervene in the change, and can only watch the old things repeat themselves.
