Chapter 3: A Strange Phenomenon
Before Xuan Liyue's words, Di Luochen didn't take it to heart, he just thought that the woman was boasting. But now that he smelled the smell of fish that made his heart move, he realized that what the woman said was true.
He has tasted countless delicacies in the world, but he has never smelled such a peculiar fragrance. He had been taking Bigu Dan for many years, and he never thought that he would still have a great appetite today because of the smell of the incense.
After staring at Xuan Liyue inexplicably for a while, Di Luochen's killing intent in his heart gradually dissipated, and the power of the stars in his palm quietly collapsed.
Just when Di Luochen changed his mind, Xuan Liyue's side also happened to grill the fish. She stood up and held up the grilled fish in her hand, and shouted to Di Luochen in the middle of the lake, "Little ghost, come and eat the fish." ”
Di Luochen's expression moved slightly, he stood up from the stone platform, and walked to Xuan Liyue's side step by step with elegant and calm steps.
"I'm really curious, what kind of people can raise such an excellent little ghost as you." Xuan Liyue admired Di Luochen's every move, and the stains were amazing.
"What spice do you use?" Di Luochen looked at the steaming grilled fish in Xuan Liyue's hand, smelled the strange fragrance, his eyes flashed slightly, and asked coldly.
Xuan Liyue smiled, her eyes curved into a crescent shape, very good-looking.
"Little ghost, you worship me as a teacher, and I teach you how to grill fish, how about it? I am the only one in the world in this craft, but I don't have it anywhere else. ”
Di Luochen snorted coldly and sat down on the clean stone beside him.
Xuan Liyue shrugged, secretly feeling funny, and held up a grilled fish in front of Di Luochen with a bit of anticipation on his face.
"Taste it."
Di Luochen took the grilled fish, slowly tore off a small piece and put it in his mouth, tasting the fresh and soft fish, his eyebrows moved slightly.
"Not bad." He exclaimed with rare admiration.
Xuan Liyue also sat down, eating fish and meat, and was affirmed by Di Luochen, her eyebrows and eyes curled, "It's really not easy to hear your praise." ”
Next, the two were speechless for a while. Xuan Liyue grilled a total of seven fish, she ate two by herself, and the remaining five were all swallowed into her stomach by Di Luochen slowly and gracefully.
"Little ghost, where are you from, and why are you here alone?" Xuan Liyue held her chin with both hands, admiring Di Luochen's elegant and calm eating, and asked curiously.
This person's demeanor is elegant and calm, and his body naturally exudes a majesty that only a superior person has, and his origin is definitely not small.
Di Luochen threw the last piece of fishbone into the fire, took out a brocade handkerchief, elegantly wiped his white little hands, and then threw the handkerchief into the fire as well.
Just when Xuan Liyue thought that it was impossible for him to answer his own question, he heard him say: "Don't ask things that shouldn't be asked, so that you can live a long time." ”
Xuan Liyue looked stunned, and looked at the little face in front of him that was slightly flushed under the firelight, and laughed out loud after a while.
"Haha, little ghost, you're so cute."
Di Luochen didn't pay any more attention to Xuan Liyue, stood up, returned to the middle of the lake, and continued to meditate.
Xuan Liyue looked at the dark shadow in the middle of the lake and sighed helplessly.
"Forget it, I'd better configure the antidote first."
She muttered to herself, and then took out the various herbs needed for the antidote.
When she went fishing before, she had already picked the last herbs.
Without scales, she could only measure the weight of medicinal herbs by the feel of her hands.
Throw the corresponding amount of medicinal herbs into the bamboo tube prepared before, fill half a tube of water, and then put the bamboo tube on top of the fire.
About an hour later, there was a "grunting" sound from the bamboo tube, Xuan Liyue's eyes lit up, and he poured out the fire with the spring water prepared in advance, and waited for a while before taking the bamboo tube off the shelf.
Pinching his nose and drinking all the potions in the bamboo tube, Xuan Liyue sat cross-legged with a bitter face, untied the sewing kit around his waist, and burned the nine embroidery needles one by one with another small fire before he began to detoxify himself with needles.
In the middle of the lake, Di Luochen, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes. Although the night was dark, he could still see Xuan Liyue's every move clearly.
Seeing the silver needles in Xuan Liyue's hand piercing into the death hole one by one, his eyebrows twisted slightly.
Isn't this woman afraid of death?
At this time, he had no intention of cultivating, but what he thought was that this woman could not die at the moment, and if she died, he would not be able to eat grilled fish.
The smell of the grilled fish, he had to admit, was a very special delicacy.
Maybe it's really as the woman said, she is the only one in the world who can cook such a delicious meal.
In fact, the woman didn't seem to have done anything too much, his current state, her actions, seemed to be reasonable.
He pretended that the grilled fish was the woman's apology to him, and if the woman was doing well, he could reluctantly take her back and put her in the kitchen.
Di Luochen was secretly thinking about the arrangements for Xuan Liyue, and suddenly saw Xuan Liyue by the lake spurting out a mouthful of blood.
His body moved slightly, but in the blink of an eye, the whole person was already standing in front of Xuan Liyue.
"Stupid woman, what are you doing?" Di Luochen said angrily in a low voice.
Xuan Liyue raised her head in surprise, looked at the little ghost with a dark face in front of her, raised her sleeves to wipe the black blood from the corners of her mouth, and showed a look on her face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Hey, little ghost, he obviously cares about himself, but he pretends to be angry, which is really awkward.
Di Luochen looked into Shang Xuan Liyue's eyes that knew everything, and coughed lightly: "You have soiled my cultivation place!" ”
He said this in his mouth, and repeatedly emphasized in his heart, that's it, and this is the reason why he is angry.
Xuan Liyue smiled with crooked eyebrows, and while taking off the silver needle on his body, he said, "Don't worry, I will clean it up." ”
"It was better to do so." Di Luochen left a cold sentence, turned around and walked back to the middle of the lake. After sitting down on his knees, he couldn't calm down. All that lingered in his mind was Xuan Liyue's various expressions.
Realizing this, his face darkened, and he simply lay directly on the round platform and looked at the stars.
There, there is his homeland, and there is his enemy.
After Di Luochen left, Xuan Liyue first buried the poisonous blood that she sprayed on the ground with soil, and then walked to the lake and washed her face, then found a stone platform to sit cross-legged, and began to try to absorb the vitality according to the method in her memory.
Because the toxin had just been removed, Xuan Liyue was very careful when absorbing the vitality. But soon, she noticed a strange phenomenon.
All the vitality that she absorbed into her body was gone.
She could feel the comfort of the vitality entering her body and wandering in the meridians, but every time she used her soul power to guide the vitality to swim in the meridians for a week and enter the dantian, she could no longer feel the existence of that vitality.
It was as if the vitality that entered the dantian disappeared in an instant.
Xuan Liyue tried many times, and the result was the same.
"What the hell is going on? I've never seen anything like this in my memory. ”
