Chapter XXXVII

Bai Rui sat on the edge of the bed, her big hand covering her small hand, her eyes deep.

The woman was deeply asleep, and kept muttering in her sleep, "Brother Jingqi - Brother Jingqi -"

Hearing this name, Bai Rui's eyes lit up, and he really wanted to wake her up and ask why he knew this name?

There was surprise and wonder in his eyes.

He put her cold hand to his lips and kissed it, tears of excitement from the joy of his treasure.

"Hu'er, is that you? Are you really back? ”

There was hoarseness in his voice, a thrill in his voice.

After being excited by the bed for a long time, he finally put her hand into the quilt, stroked her face, and smiled excitedly.

He ran to the courtyard under the mulberry tree in ecstasy, looked up at the towering tree that was cautious into the sky, and let go of his voice and shouted, "Did you bring her back?" ”

Tears dripped down his handsome face, and he fell to his knees and bowed down on the Trumphorn Mountain.

He sincerely swore to this tree, "Jingqi swears to you here that he will never let her down again, forever!" ”

The birds perched on the trees seemed to understand his words, and they took off one after another, hovering above Bai Rui's head, and did not leave for a long time.

They also seemed to understand Bai Rui's sincerity and saw his infatuation.

In the flower beds under the truss trees, those flowers that are about to bloom are in full bloom in an instant.

Colorful, purple and red.

Bai Rui was surprised, and he was already completely convinced that Huan'er was back.

These plants have already received her breath and are full of vitality.

If it's not a skull, how can it be.

He thought back to that year, when he learned that Huan'er had died, he rode his horse overnight and came to the Northern Wei Dynasty. Li Amaranth gave him her sword and told her that she had gone to another world.

He knelt in front of the ice coffin of Ju'er, weeping silently, completely broken.

He blamed himself that he shouldn't have left her alone in this place to be sad and burdened with hatred.

He shouldn't have given up on her and returned to his own country.

He didn't put her first, he lost her for his mission.

He regretted it, regretted it.

On that day, he also swore under this tree, "If there is another fate, he will never let go of her hand again." ”

On that day, he was also so sad under this tree that he even harmed himself.

Li Amaranth looked at him blankly and asked him melancholy, "Why did you wait until now?" Why did you never come to see her again after leaving the door? Why is it that she can't die with hatred? Why did she still have a grudge before she died? ”

Li Amaranth handed him the white jade necklace that Huan'er had been wearing around her neck and told him, "This is what the master asked me to leave to you before he died." ”

He took the necklace with trembling hands, held it in his palm, pressed it to his chest, and his heart was almost suffocating.

From that day on, he stayed in front of the ice coffin of Hu'er, without eating or drinking until he fainted.

Li Yuan'er helped him to the bed, and when he woke up, he told him, "Your master injected true qi into the door master's body and took pills before the door master died. Master Cui also gave me a specific explanation, asking me to transport the body of the door master to this Flowing Frost Water Pavilion and place her in the ice coffin of this mysterious cave. Master Cui said that in this way, the body of the master of the door will never decay. ”

Speaking of the master, the man reacted a little, looked at Li Amaranth in a daze, and wondered, "What about my master?" ”

Li Amaranth shook her head, "I don't know, Master Cui doesn't know where he went." ”

Bai Rui recovered from his memories, slowly stood up, gently wiped away the tears on his face, and looked up at the tree again.

The tree was already a big tree when he came to the Frost Water Pavilion.

He was only seven years old at the time, and his uncle sent him here.

Because he had a sore, his uncle sent him to Cui Boyuan, who was a Taoist priest but had medical skills, so that he could be treated.

Cui Boyuan was already a hermit back then, and he was a miracle doctor outside.

Because his uncle had grace and Cui Boyuan, Cui Boyuan left him in the Flowing Frost Water Pavilion.

On the first day he came to the Flowing Frost Water Pavilion, he was attracted by this tree.

Cui Boyuan told him that this tree could gain insight into the divine consciousness of human beings and was a divine tree.

Of course, he believed that all the plants in the Frost Pavilion were verdant and large, and they were incomparable to the outside world.

Bai Rui believes here that when Gao Zhaorong called out his name in his sleep at this time, it must be Huan'er's divine sense to encourage her, otherwise, how could it be-

He must have brought her here, and the tree had mercy on him, remembering his oath.

He smiled happily, finally getting his wish.

Bai Rui returned to the bed again, the woman was still asleep, he looked at her quietly, and then came to the mountain rock wall behind the house, pressed on a protruding stone, and a stone door cracked in the rock wall.

Walk through the dark and shady corridor to an ice house. In the middle of the ice room was an ice coffin, and a woman was lying in the transparent ice coffin.

He was not afraid of the cold, he was not afraid of the cold, he stroked the ice coffin, thinking and contemplating.

He was in unbearable pain and deeply mourned.

"You're back, aren't you?"

"It's because you don't want to see me sad, so you're back, aren't you?"

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

I opened my eyes and saw Bai Rui's soft eyes in front of me, and he smiled gently, "You're awake." ”

"I fainted?" I sat up from the bed and looked at him in a daze.

Bai Rui nodded, "Yes, maybe there was a wind in the forest last night, and you have a fever." ”

I looked around the room and saw some simple wooden furniture, old but neat.

"Is this in the Frost Water Pavilion?" I wondered.

He still nodded, picked up a bowl of medicine from the low table next to the bed, and said leisurely, "I boiled the medicine, you drink some." ”

He scooped a spoonful of decoction with a wooden spoon and brought it to my lips and said calmly, "Drink it." ”

I looked at his face close at hand, and saw pity in his eyes.

When he is not smiling, his melancholy eyes are soul-striking; When smiling, the curved thin lips are seductive. His bewitching face makes people can't help but be attracted at the sight of it.

He has a magical power that I can't put into words, and every time I look at him, I can't help but be captivated by him.

I obediently took the medicine he had brought to my lips and drank it.

Seeing that I was well-behaved, he pursed his lips and smiled.

I drank the bowl of medicine so quietly, but somehow, as soon as I met his gaze at me, I felt a little uncomfortable.

After he put down the medicine bowl, he said lightly, "You still rest, I'll go get something to eat." ”

I immediately replied, "Okay. ”

I waited for him to walk out of the curtain before I lay down again.

When I raised my eyes, I saw a painting hanging on the wooden wall opposite the bed, which depicted a white-bearded Taoist man, holding a whisk in his hand, and his eyes seemed to be looking at me, very divine.

This painting should be "Taishang Real People", and the painting is vivid.

I suddenly understood that the owner of this house should be a Taoist believer.

Beneath the painting is a wooden cabinet with a number of porcelain vases, neatly arranged.

I'm a little curious about what's in those bottles.

I got up from the bed, approached the wooden cabinet on the desk, and touched the porcelain bottle, which was very clean and did not look like it had been left unattended for many years.

I picked up a bottle, opened it and smelled it, and there was a medicinal smell in it.

It seems that these bottles are all medicine bottles, and they are all filled with medicine.

Suddenly I remembered that there was the same bottle in the house in the Valley of the Hidden Forest, and it was also filled with medicine.

Could it be the same owner?

My head suddenly got a little foggy, and it felt so familiar to me.

Suddenly, I saw a white-haired old man, at a table in the room, reading a book seriously.

The vague shadows flickered in front of me, and when I blinked, there was nothing in the room.

I was stunned, and I was hallucinating again.

I looked at the curtain and couldn't help but want to get out.

Out of the curtain was a large hall with a wooden table, a row of chairs on the wall, and a few low tables.

In the middle of the hall is a painting of "Taishang Zhenren", under which is a sacrificial platform, on which there is an incense burner, which is filled with burned incense, and only a little incense stick remains.

However, this painting is different from the painting in the room just now, and the appearance of the real person is different.

Could it be?

I suddenly realized that the painting in this hall was the "Taishang Zhenren", and the painting in that room could be a portrait of the owner of this Frost Water Pavilion.

"What's wrong?" A deep voice came from behind him.

I came back to my senses and turned around, and Bai Rui's deep eyes were looking at me indifferently.

The door to the hall was open, and the sun shone brightly behind him. Yesterday it was still a gloomy day, but today the sun is very warm here, a piece of spring, feeling the season of spring.

I was still in a daze, Bai Rui had already stepped in front of me, took my hand, smiled at the corner of his mouth, pulled me to the table and sat down, and said, "When you get up, eat something, I'll bring it." ”

When he brought the food to the table, I looked at the food on the table and it looked like it was selling very well.

He handed the chopsticks to me and said softly, "Try it." ”

I smiled and praised, "I can't see that Bai Gongzi can actually cook." ”

Bai Rui stared at me for a long time with a pair of condensed eyes, and slowly spoke, "Someone once taught me. ”

I smiled lightly, "The master who taught you must have made a good dish." ”

Bai Rui's eyes flashed with a hint of melancholy, he lowered his head and frowned, and said indifferently, "Yes, but I haven't studied well, and I won't have such a chance in the future." ”

"Why?" I looked up at him, and I was picking up my chopsticks in my hand.

Bai Rui's seductive and deep voice sounded faintly in front of me, "She left. ”

I had just put the dish in my mouth, but when I heard this, I looked at him in a daze, his eyes were sad, and his brows were full of sorrow.

That person must be the person he cares about the most, otherwise how could he be so sad.

He opened the jar on the table, poured it directly into his mouth and took a sip.

It's my fault, and he shouldn't be reminded of his sadness. Everyone has their own unspeakable things.

Seeing that I was stunned, he cast a complicated look, stared at me, and slowly stretched out his hand to touch my face.

I was stunned, hurriedly grabbed a chopstick dish into his bowl, and smiled panickedly, "Eat something." ”

His hand stiffened in the air, and he withdrew it with a faint smile.

During the whole meal, we didn't say anything, and he kept drinking.

After the meal, he said to take me somewhere, and I was picked up by him and walked outside.

I looked at his somewhat crimson face, and after drinking so much, he must have been a little drunk.

"Why don't you rest, don't go anywhere." I stopped, stared at him, and grabbed his sleeve with my other hand.

Bai Rui looked down at me, his gaze was slightly confused, and then a painful light flashed, he reached out again and stroked my hair, and smiled lowly, "You can do it anywhere." ”

My heart jumped suddenly, and suddenly some images suddenly flashed in my mind, looking at his handsome face, the affection in his eyes, my heart was really messed up.

My heart seemed to be uncontrollably touched by his emotions.

He took my hand and brought me close to his chest.

His chin rubbed my hair and whispered hoarsely, "Hu'er—"

He lifted my little face abruptly, kissed me lightly on the corner of the lips, and hugged me tightly.

I was stunned, and my head was still swirling with the soft cry he had just made.

He called me "Juan'er".

Did I hear it wrong?

The images of those dreams in the valley of the forest came back to my mind.

He's that person, the one in a dream.

I hurriedly broke away from him, looking up at him in bewilderment.

"Why do you call me a son, and who is it? Who are you? ”

His gentle eyes looked at me hallucinately, his hands were on my shoulders, his thin lips were faintly curled, and his slender fingers gently caressed my cheeks, "You are Ju'er." ”

I was scared and panicked, how could this be.

"Am I not Gao Zhaorong? How could I be a? ”

I pushed him away and took a step back, my face full of disbelief.

"Even if I have amnesia, but so many people know me, saying that I am the second lady of Gao Fu, Gao Zhaorong, how can it be Huan'er, it is another person, how is this possible."

In a panic, I glanced at the tree in the courtyard.

The joyful image of the boy and the girl chasing after me under the tree came to mind again.

In the inn of Jinyang City, the scene of a young boy and girl sitting on the bluestone steps and hallucinating in front of him rolled in his mind.

In the cave, the woman's face was exactly the same as mine, and she appeared in front of me again.

Is there a woman who looks exactly like me, her name is "Huan'er", so Bai Rui recognized the wrong person.

It must be so.

My heart was beating fast, the picture in my head was no longer in order, and I couldn't bear the endless tumbling.

I passed out again.
