Chapter 3: Follow the King Until the Night Langxi (2)
Xuan Ao sat down beside me and gently hugged me into his arms. The faint incense of agarwood on his body made me settle down, "God knows about this, you, I and Tengu know." You must not tell Yi Qingchen the truth about the mother, otherwise how can he let you go easily with his temperament. ”
I only knew how to nod my head, and I was confused, and I didn't hear what Xuan Ao said.
Xuan Ao held my face, and for the first time, I saw him look so vicious, "Hear the words of the people, you can hear clearly, Yi Qingchen is the best demon hunter in Southern Qin!" He can even kill his lover Qin Ning, if you let him know your relationship with Tengu, you will definitely die under his sword. ”
Tears continued to fall from the corners of my eyes, and I threw myself into Xuan's arms and cried loudly.
The night sky was silent, and only my cries could be heard.
Suddenly, there were two light coughs on his side, and Yi Qingchen woke up leisurely, and he could see that the towering trees were so obscured that the moonlight could hardly penetrate in.
His throat was so dry that he couldn't say a word.
"You're awake!" I calmed down before I asked him.
Xuan Ao flew up and took a leaf from the tree and dripped the dew into Yi Qingchen's mouth, he felt a little better and asked, "Where are we?" ”
I was about to answer, but Xuan Ao hurriedly said: "You were injured in Xianyang and never got better, you fell from the top of the mountain last night, and we villains don't know what happened to jump from the top of the mountain with you." Otherwise, I won't waste my spiritual power and destroy the stone mirror to save you. ”
Yi Qingchen is ruthless and the most affectionate, and he is always very kind to those who are kind to him.
Xuan Ao pushed the stone mirror with a crack into Yi Qingchen's arms, "Look, when you heal from your injuries, you will have to spend some spiritual power to repair my stone mirror." ”
He gave me a look, and I nodded slightly away from Yi Qingchen's gaze.
Yi Qingchen said: "You... How can you jump from the top of the mountain. The mountains are ten thousand feet high, and the valleys are full of wild beasts. If you fall into the valley, you will be torn apart by wild beasts in an instant. ”
"But... But when I see you falling, I can't die without help! ”
Yi Qingchen sighed heavily, and looked away at the green pines growing obliquely halfway up the mountainside, "Thank you." ”
Xuan Ao's eyes went from Yi Qingchen to me, and from me to Yi Qingchen.
is as arrogant as Yi Qingchen will even say thank you.
Xuan Ao flew between the two trees, found a branch and lay on it, the feather fan in his hand shook gently, and the black feather coat faded into a black narrow-sleeved kaftan
I said, "Xuanao, what's the matter with you?" ”
Xuan Ao ignored me, and Yi Qingchen said: "Xuan Ao is a mirror immortal, and he can't leave the stone mirror for too long." His spiritual power was being refined by the abyss. ”
Xuan Ao turned over, still shaking the feather fan, "Yi Qingchen, don't exaggerate to scare my villain." ”
Yi Qingchen closed his mouth and looked at the black shadow on the branches.
Xuan's medicine worked, and Yi Qingchen's spirit improved a lot.
I said, "Uncle Qingchen, how can I save Xuanao?" ”
"You just need to find a host for Xuan Ao, your soul bell is also a spirit treasure, if Xuan Ao can succumb to this, he will be fine."
I looked at the black shadow, Xuan Ao would rather destroy the stone mirror than come to save my life, don't say that with the Dementor Bell as the host, even if I use my flesh as a medium, I am willing.
Yi Qingchen quietly put the talisman in my hand, "Wait until dawn, and you will stick this talisman on Xuan Ao's back." to add it to your Soul Bell. ”
I put the talisman seal close to my body, this is related to Xuan Ao's life, where do I dare to be careless.
I had no sleep all night, and I couldn't let go of the faint tension that shrouded in my heart.
Yi Qingchen seemed to have slept well, and he didn't turn over all night.
Before the sun rose, the rooster crowed, and Xuan Ao had already gotten up and straightened up his appearance in front of the stone mirror.
I gently groped behind Xuan Ao and quickly attached the talisman seal to him.
For a moment, Xuan's body stiffened, and the hand that was about to pick up the hair on the side of his face stopped in place.
Xuan Ao rolled his eyes, "Villain, what are you doing here?" Quickly uncover the talisman. ”
I flicked the dementor bell in my hand, and Xuan Ao turned into green smoke and burrowed into the bracelet.
The sound of the bell became harsh, and it no longer had the ethereal spirit it had been. Xuan Ao used this to express his dissatisfaction.
The bell woke Yi Qingchen, he smiled lightly, and said, "Xuan Ao is dissatisfied at this time, it will be fine in a while." ”
He held on to remember, and I hurriedly said, "Although Xuan Ao gave you medicine, your injuries are not healed yet. Why don't you just recuperate here for a few days, I've looked around for the best place to recuperate. ”
The Qilian Mountains connect the abyss and the sky, and although it will suppress the spiritual power of the demon hunter, the climate is pleasant and mild, and the breath is most suitable for recuperation.
Yi Qingchen couldn't resist me, and sat cross-legged in the shade of the tree.
I heard the murmuring of water, so I found two slightly larger leaves and scooped some water on the side of the trickle.
When I came back, I saw Yi Qingchen standing on the edge of the cliff, and I was afraid that he would fall down again and panicked: "What are you doing standing on the edge of the cliff?" Come and sit down! ”
Yi Qingchen pointed to the place where the sparkling golden light shimmered at the highest point of the mountains, "The water comes from here, and the air currents converge here. This is the most suitable place for recuperation in Qilian Mountain. ”
He paused slightly, and said, "It's a pity that my old opponent is here, and I can't go even if I want to." ”
My face turned red, as if I had an embarrassment that my lies had been exposed.
He walked over to the stone table I had set up and sat down, grabbed the wild fruit, wiped the dust off his clothes, and threw it into his mouth.
Yi Qingchen beckoned me to sit down, and I saw that he was in a good mood and said, "Uncle Qingchen, how can I repair the stone mirror?" ”
He sighed and said, "Xuan Ao is a treasure handed down from ancient times, and it takes forty-nine days to repair that crack with the water of the Santu River in Artemisia Mountain, the flame of Houqi and the alchemy furnace of water and sky. ”
In addition to the alchemy furnace with water and sky, the other two are also the first time I have heard of them.
The Santu River begins in the Haoli Mountains and flows to the legendary Netherworld. There are many rumors, but no one has seen them until now.
The flame of Hou Qi is not available everywhere, it only works on the top of the sun and the moon.
Yi Qingchen said: "When my injuries are better, I will go to fetch the water of the Santu River and the flame on the top of the sun and moon to help you repair the mystery." ”
My heart warmed when I heard this, and I said, "I'll go with you, and there will be a good answer on the way." ”
Yi Qingchen thought for a long time before he reluctantly agreed.
The afternoon sun slanted on the sloping stone wall, and there was nothing to do on Qilian Mountain, so I said, "Uncle Qingchen, why are you seriously injured and still come here with us?" ”
Yi Qingchen looked at the bottom of the mountain bursting out in the sun, and the shadows of the green pines swaying in the wind, "I'll know when you're older." ”
I'm almost 100 years old, and in Yi Qingchen's eyes, I'm just a child who doesn't know anything about the world.
I looked at him, and for the first time I had seen such a heavy gentleness in his eyes.
Yi Qingchen and I stayed on the mountainside for ten days, drinking water from the mountain stream every day to quench our thirst and satisfy our hunger with wild fruits. His face grew more and more ruddy, and on the tenth day he was well.
That night I was picking wild fruits in the mountains when I saw a rabbit bouncing up to the stream in the middle of the woods to drink.
It lifted its front feet off the ground and shook the moon. I was amazed, this is the first time I have seen a rabbit worship the moon.
I walked gently to the rabbit, took off my shoes and socks and stepped into the water like a rabbit. The stream was cold and bitter, but I felt cheerful, and I stepped on the water.
The rabbit seems to be spiritual, and it is not afraid of people, jumping in the water.
I heard a noise in the forest, and I turned around to see that it was a light dust, and when I came back to look, the rabbit was nowhere to be seen, and jumped into the forest.
Yi Qingchen smiled and said, "I'm still like a child when I'm so old." ”
He stared at my feet, and I hid them. How can a woman's feet be seen by a man other than her husband?
I blushed like a flying glow and said in embarrassment, "Turn around." ”
Yi Qingchen realized that he had seen the wrong place, and stiffened and turned away. I panicked and put on my shoes and socks and walked slowly to him.
The flush on my face has not faded, and Yi Qingchen's face has climbed a trace of crimson.
"My injuries are all healed, and I can go up the mountain to see Wenxuan and Shanyu." Yi Qingchen's voice was full of joy.
Naturally, I am also happy that these hard days on the mountainside have not been in vain, "It's so good that I don't have to live this kind of life of feeding my hunger with wild fruits." ”
Yi Qingchen and I glanced at each other and laughed. The awkward atmosphere was swept away by laughter.
His injury was just right, and I had neglected to practice these days, so we walked very slowly up the mountain.
It wasn't until I saw the sun in the clouds that we arrived at Brother Wenxuan's house.
It was as quiet as I thought, and only Senior Brother Wen Xuan was sitting and drinking tea in the courtyard alone.
He got up in a panic when he saw Yi Qingchen, and almost touched the teacup that was placed along the table.
"Uncle Qingchen!" He looked at me, "Little junior sister." ”
The senior brother conjured a piece of chalcedony from his waist like a trick, and it looked like a pair of Linlang with the mountain elm.
"Mrs. Zhao Hou Zhao has an urgent matter to recruit Senior Brother Shanyu back to Xianyang, and he instructed me to give you Zhuji when I see you." Senior Brother Wen Xuan put the chalcedony in front of my eyes, but was unexpectedly taken by Yi Qingchen.
He said: "Is Zhao Hou looking for his wife so anxious to find a daughter-in-law?" Even Zhuji was delivered. ”
He spoke plainly, and I could hear a sourness. Soon he felt as if he had said too much and gave me back the chalcedony.
He walked to the edge of the cliff, and his back was quite lonely.
Senior Brother Wen Xuan said: "Senior Brother Shanyu also said that if you find him, you should go to Xianyang City to find him immediately. ”
Although I also want to see Shanyu immediately, but Xuan Ao is still in the midst of the soul bell, how can I leave him alone. Then he said to his senior brother: "I know, I will definitely go to Xianyang to find him later." ”
I don't dare to tell my senior brother that I am going to Artemisia Mountain to get the water of the Santu River, and I have to go to Houqi to get the fire on the top of the sun and the moon. I'm afraid that he will be more worried and will not be able to live here.
I walked out of the journey, looked back at Qilian Mountain, and the senior brother stood in the wind, his robe was flying, and he was strong and vigorous in the face of thousands of miles. It is the Qilian Mountain that stretches for thousands of miles, and it is also the deepest loneliness for the rest of my life.
The sound of the piano suddenly echoed on the mountain, the sound of the piano was sonorous and powerful, and it was long and lingering like Wu Nong's soft words, and the girl whispered.
The senior brother took the sound of the piano as his own to send us out of this place.
I withdrew my long gaze and stepped back to where I belonged.
"Do you want to go to Artemisia Mountain or Sun Moon Peak first?" Yi Qingchen seemed to be asking me, and he seemed to be asking himself.
I said, "Let's go to Artemisia Mountain first!" ”
