Chapter 53: Hugging

In the silent night, the sad cry of Mu Jiujiu echoed.

Wen Yuan was silent for a while, and for the first time in his life, he was a little overwhelmed. He hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Don't cry. ”

Mu Jiujiu didn't listen, and the more she thought about herself, the more aggrieved she became, from sobbing softly to crying.

"Woooooooo

Wen Yuan: "......"

He pursed his lips lightly, and suddenly didn't know how to speak, because he had no experience comforting people.

After a long silence, he spoke: "Jiujiu, I didn't mean to accuse you, but when I thought that you would be in danger, I ...... in my heart."

After Wen Yuan said half of it, he suddenly paused, and his expression was a little unnatural.

He has always been a withdrawn person, who is not good at explaining and does not like to explain. After so many years along the way, I am used to being alone.

He doesn't like to reveal his emotions, and he doesn't want to show others what he has hidden in his heart. But when I saw her sad this day, I still couldn't hold back.

"I'm really, worried about you." In the end, Wen Yuan lowered his eyes and said softly.

Over the years, he has walked many roads alone and waved goodbye to countless people. Some of them cut off themselves, and some of them parted ways because of the impermanence of fate.

He had lost a lot of things, and then he didn't care about losing them.

But he was real, and he didn't want to lose her.

After Wen Yuan finished speaking, Wu Zi was silent.

A strange atmosphere spreads between the two of you.

Seeing that Mu Jiujiu didn't speak, his heart dropped a little, turned his hand away, turned his back to her, and closed his eyes.

Cover the fleeting fragility under your eyes.

"I know."

Behind him, Mu Jiujiu suddenly spoke.

Wen Yuan paused.

"A lot of things, because of concern, chaos is like this...... Who would be worried about getting angry because of an unrelated person? I can understand the feelings of Wen Yuan's seniors. Mu Jiujiu whispered.

Wen Yuan was a little stunned.

"Along the way, Wen Yuan's predecessors have always taken care of me, as long as they feel that they are in danger, they will protect me, in fact, I know ......"

Mu Jiujiu lowered his head, and his long eyelashes covered the look in his eyes.

Wen Yuan just wanted to speak, but he heard Mu Jiujiu add-

"It's just, senior, you were really fierce just now! You usually seem quite gentle, but when you get angry, you are so fierce......"

After she said this, she couldn't help but sob.

Wen Yuan: "......"

Mu Jiujiu wiped his eyes and said, "Look, I'm still injured, and I still have to be told like this by you......"

She pointed to her chest.

Wen Yuan looked at the imprint under the collarbone, his brows furrowed slightly.

Her skin has always been warm and delicate, so the uneven scars look more conspicuous under the white jade-like skin.

It seems to have been burned by a very high temperature, and the color is reddish, and the surface of the skin is slightly peeled, revealing sporadic blood.

"How did you get it? Does it hurt? Wen Yuan asked a little seriously, his tone deliberately slowing down.

"It doesn't hurt." Mu Jiujiu replied, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly said, "It's still a little painful." ”

"Wait, I'll give you the medicine." Wen Yuan said, and he was about to take out the healing elixir from the storage ring.

Mu Jiujiu said with a smile: "If Senior Wen Yuan is not angry, I won't be in pain." ”

"You're really ......" Wen Yuan, who was originally a little worried, was warmed up by her tone.

He sighed, took out the elixir from the storage ring, and said slowly: "It may hurt a little, but the effect is fast, you can bear with it a little." ”

Mu Jiujiu nodded obediently: "Don't worry, I'm not afraid of pain." ”

Wen Yuan dipped in the elixir and wiped it under her collarbone, and the moment he touched her warm skin, he felt his heart tremble slightly.

"Shhhh

A cold pain hit him, and Mu Jiujiu couldn't help but gasp.

Hearing her voice, Wen Yuan's hand, which had always been extremely steady with a sword, trembled. At this time, Mu Jiujiu inadvertently leaned forward because of the pain, and Wen Yuan's fingertips accidentally pressed her wound.

"Hmm......" Mu Jiujiu felt more pain.

Wen Yuan was a little in a hurry and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry." ”

Mu Jiujiu looked at Wen Yuan in front of him and felt a little novel. She rarely saw such a Wen Yuan, he always looked calm and steady on weekdays, his eyes were calm, as if he was in control of everything.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that the people I see him today are very different from usual.

Mu Jiujiu looked at him in front of him and said softly: "Did Wen Yuan's predecessors experience a lot of bad things before?" ”

Although she said it in an inquiring tone, she said it with a little more affirmation.

That's why he is like this, in order to isolate the possible damage, he seals himself in a seemingly cold shell to make himself look strong and calm.

In fact, deep down, it is a different kind of delicate sensitivity.

After hearing this, Wen Yuan's fingertips hanging beside him trembled slightly.

Mu Jiujiu did one thing.

She leaned forward slightly and hugged the lonely figure in front of her.

Wen Yuan was stunned.

Mu Jiujiu buried himself in the other party's warm embrace, felt his somewhat tense body, and smiled lightly.

"I'm actually very grateful that Wen Yuan's predecessors have always cared about me." She said softly.

In fact, she has always felt that Wen Yuan's predecessor is a gentle person in her heart.

Wen Yuan's heart trembled, like the sound of the tide flooding the embankment.

Mu Jiujiu quietly hugged him, feeling the temperature of the person in front of her, as well as the familiar smell, she suddenly felt a sense of relief.

After a lifetime tonight, Mu Jiujiu gradually became a little sleepy.

She said softly: "Senior Wen Yuan, it's so comfortable to hold you, I really want to sleep......"

Although he said so, Mu Jiujiu still barely supported it. After all, the place she is in now may not be safe, if she falls asleep, Wen Yuan has to take care of her, and she has to be alert to the danger ahead, which is also troublesome.

After hugging for a while, Mu Jiujiu stood up and said, "Let's go, get out of here first." ”

The moment he broke out of his embrace, a faint regret rose in Wen Yuan's heart.

He pursed his lips slightly, nodding.

The two of them walked in this boundless night forest.

"By the way, there's one more thing." After walking for a while, Wen Yuan seemed to think of something, and his expression was slightly serious.

"I was in the distance before, and I saw a dazzling light exploding, what happened?"

In fact, Wen Yuan should have asked at the beginning, but because she was worried about her safety before, and then she was not in a good mood, so she never spoke.

He naturally knew that the old man was not an ordinary person, and his current skill was sealed by the strange giant beast he saw that day, so he was not even sure that he would win all of it when he faced the old man.

Wen Yuan has never looked down on Mu Jiujiu, and even thinks that she has unlimited potential. But he also understood that at this time, she was definitely not the opponent of the old man.

What's more, in the other party's hands, there may be some supernatural methods that he doesn't know.

Mu Jiujiu thought for a while and said, "Before, my master, that is, the hall master of Canglan Palace, Sheng Canglan, he left me something. ”

"Look."

Her palm was spread out, and in the palm of her hand was a shining blood-colored jade.

The jade is crescent-shaped, with a slight hook on the tail and a red demon.

Wen Yuan thought of something, and his eyes thought.

The reason why he came to the Vine Realm in the first place was because of a rumor about the "Red Blood Jade". At that time, he sent his subordinates to Eternal Night Island to investigate, but he didn't expect to be the first to arrive.

At that time, because the situation was complicated and several forces were involved, he simply did not wade into this troubled water.

Unexpectedly, going around and around, this thing actually appeared in Mu Jiujiu's hands.
