Chapter 13: The Path to Awakening (2)
Huo Xiaolu sat in the ice and snow, and at this time he had completely lost his usual leisure. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
If he said that he would play in the snow, of course he would be very willing, after all, he had not seen such a university for so long. But if he was to do nothing and just stay outside, it would not be a comfortable thing.
Watching the snowflakes keep falling on your body, they will melt quickly at first, and then they will melt more and more slowly until they accumulate. From morning to noon, Huo Xiaolu became a snowman.
Snowflakes should be regarded as the most beautiful gift from the heavens to the world in winter. They are pure white and immaculate, and they take over the world like playful elves. With the slightest chill, they washed away all the dust in the process of coming to the mortal world, and covered the earth with layers of crystal. Huo Xiaolu didn't know why he thought of this, probably because he thought of his once carefree childhood.
He sat there silently, silently surveying everything in the Fire Manor. Many children of the fire family rushed outside on a snowy day, building snowmen and having snowball fights like ordinary children, and had a lot of fun. At such times, these children are probably the only ones who do not worry about the distractions of the outside world.
Sitting there quietly, Huo Xiaolu not only looked like a snowman, but also seemed to subtly think in his heart that he shouldn't make a sound, and shouldn't disturb everything beautiful in front of him.
While enduring the cold, he silently wondered why the clouds would let him come out to bask in the sun on a snowy day. If there is no mystery in this, he will definitely not believe it, but the point is that he does not understand the truth in it.
I'm going to be out in the snow for a whole day, he sighed to himself.
What he didn't know was that when he was turning a thousand times in his heart, Yin Xiao and Huo Liuli were silently watching him.
"Does his appearance really work?" Huo Liuli said with some concern, "Don't freeze your body without realizing something." ”
Yin Xiao shook his head and said: "That's not going to happen, after all, he has a Golden Crow physique, not to mention anything else, this bit of wind and snow won't cause him any harm." ”
Seeing a group of children frolicking outside, Huo Xiaolu could only watch quietly from the side, Huo Liuli couldn't help but shake his head: "Okay, he was comfortable for too long before, and now he should suffer a little." ”
Hearing this, Yin Xiao smiled: "What, it sounds like you're a little jealous of him?" ”
"It's not jealousy, it's envy." As he spoke, Huo Liuli stretched his waist and released the exhaustion in the depths of his body.
"I've worked so hard to cultivate for so long that my strength has improved so little, but what about him? Just sit there and bask in the sun, as long as the time comes, it will improve by leaps and bounds, so it is really unfair to go to heaven. ”
Yin Xiao sighed lightly and said, "This is everyone's talent, and there is nothing fair in the first place. ”
"However, if you think about it carefully, it's actually good that he's getting stronger," a smile appeared at the corner of Huo Liuli's mouth, "After all, he's my friend and someone from our side, even if he's powerful, what?" It's not like you want to call me senior sister obediently. ”
"yes, how did you pick up this treasure in the first place?" Yin Xiao shook his head helplessly and smiled.
"I didn't pick it up, I found it myself." Huo Liuli said with a smile.
The snow outside was getting heavier and heavier, and the snow was already nearly a foot thick, and the children, who had been crazy, finally couldn't stand the cold outside and returned to the warm room, lying on the windowsill and drinking hot air to the glass, and then wiping it clean with their hands, and continuing to look at the silver outside.
Sitting in the ice and snow, Huo Xiaolu felt that the things in the world had nothing to do with him. His body was numb, and at first he could feel pain all over his body, as if his skin had cracked, and then he couldn't feel anything. He even wondered if his body was dead for a while, and now it was his soul that watched the world.
He could still hear the howling of the cold wind in his ears, and he could see the snowflakes swaying and falling in front of him, but he couldn't react now.
Occasionally, someone from the Fire Family would come out to see him, and everyone was full of curiosity when they saw the thick snow covering his body. If it weren't for the fact that it was in the Fire House, they would almost have thought that this was a madman who didn't know where he came from.
Huo Xiaolu didn't react to all kinds of strange eyes, or he couldn't react anymore. His body was frozen, and even his consciousness was a little blurred, and the whole person seemed to die at any time.
He certainly didn't die, but he passed out.
In the afternoon, at the end of his day's practice, a cold wind suddenly blew again. This cold wind originally had no effect on the world, but it only made the snow falling between the heavens and the earth a little messier, but with a muffled sound, Huo Xiaolu fell into the snow.
Huo Xiaolu, who had been unshaken by the wind that had blown for a while, was as fragile as a lone reed at this time. He fell heavily to the ground, and the snow on his body fell one after another, revealing Huo Xiaolu, who had passed out unconscious.
When he woke up again, he was already back in his room.
Yin Xiao carried him back from the snow and put him in a medicinal bath for the whole night. When Huo Xiaolu regained consciousness, it was already noon the next day.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he felt that there was a bright light in front of him, as if there was a strong light facing him, which stimulated him so much that he couldn't open his eyes. It wasn't until his eyes had finally adapted to the environment that he could see the fire glass sitting beside his bed.
"What time is it?" He said stunned.
"At noon the next day, you didn't sleep long." Huo Liuli said, handing him a bowl of hot soup as she spoke.
took it and took a sip carefully, Huo Xiaolu's eyes widened instantly: "Why did the seniors do it?" ”
Huo Liuli smiled and nodded.
Huo Xiaolu couldn't help but stumble: "It's really been a long time since I've drunk it, I really didn't expect to wake up and have this treatment." ”
Hearing this, Huo Liuli smiled helplessly: "If you like to be frozen to death every day, then I won't stop you." ”
Thinking back to his feelings yesterday, Huo Xiaolu felt as if there was no particularly painful feeling, probably because his body was no longer conscious. He asked, "By the way, Senior Sister, do you know what Uncle Yin's intentions are in doing this?" Basking in the sun on a snowy day doesn't seem reasonable at all. ”
"He must have a reason for doing this, anyway, you know that Uncle Yin won't harm you." Huo Liuli comforted, "Speaking of which, have you thought carefully about Uncle Yin's intentions in doing this? ”
Huo Xiaolu scratched his hair and said helplessly: "Of course I thought about it, but I really can't think of any connection between snowy days and basking in the sun, do you want me to assume that there is a sun in the sky?" ”
Huo Liuli said with a smile: "It's not impossible." ”
Shaking his head, Huo Xiaolu said: "I also thought it was okay, but when I sat there yesterday, the cold on my body couldn't be dispelled by my thoughts, and whenever I wanted to imagine that the sun was overhead, my spirit always couldn't be concentrated." ”
Huo Liuli shrugged: "That only shows that Uncle Yin has other intentions." ”
Sighing heavily, Huo Xiaolu drank all the soup in the bowl, smacked his lips and said, "However, the craftsmanship of the predecessors is really speechless." ”
"Yes, this is made for you, I just have to watch." Huo Liuli said with a smile.
Huo Xiaolu also smiled, and then seemed to remember something, and asked, "By the way, don't I have to go to the sun today?" ”
"No need today," Huo Liuli said, "It's sunny today, the weather is very cold, Uncle Yin said that your body can't be tossed too much, so let you rest for a day, but you can't leave this house." ”
Huo Xiaolu raised his eyebrows: "Why?" I feel better. ”
"This is the arrangement, you should be honest and obedient." Unable to help but say, Huo Liuli took the bowl in his hand, forced him to lie back on the bed, and tucked the quilt corner for him by the way.
Looking at the window that was blurred by the fog, Huo Xiaolu lay there honestly, but suddenly sighed.
Huo Liuli raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong?" ”
"It's nothing," Huo Xiaolu said with a frown, "I'm just a little curious, do you also use this strange method when cultivating?" ”
Hearing this, Huo Liuli chuckled and shook his head: "No." ”
"Why?" Huo Xiaolu's face was puzzled.
Huo Liuli's smile contained something incomprehensible: "Because we are different from you, we don't have the talent of yours." ”
Huo Xiaolu glanced at her and said, "Don't be kidding, you are all geniuses in the Yin and Yang Realm of Life and Death, how can you be inferior to me, a nobody." ”
"What is quasi-impermanence and what is genius is just because of good luck when I was reincarnated, so I have obtained better resources than most people since I was a child." Huo Liuli said with a wry smile.
"Do you really think that all the heirs of the family are geniuses? If there were so many geniuses, it would be worthless. Just like a person like Bu Tianliu, his talent is actually really average, but it is because he was born in the Impermanence Bu family, and his family spent countless natural treasures and energy to elevate him to this point. ”
She shook her head and said, "To be honest, looking at the entire Yin and Yang Realm of Life and Death, there are very few people in our generation who can be regarded as geniuses. ”
"Not really," Huo Xiaolu said, "Aren't you and the Yin Lord?" ”
Hearing this, Huo Liuli shook his head, his face full of self-deprecation: "Do you really think that we are talented?" ”
"Isn't it? You can win against the three of them. ”
Huo Liuli reluctantly explained: "The reason why we can win against them is not because of our qualifications, but because we have put in more efforts. ”
"We are also the heirs of the impermanent family in the Yin and Yang Realm of Life and Death, so the resources we can get are almost the same, and the reason why we are better is because we know how to work hard."
"After getting the resources, people like Bu Tianliu will be complacent, and it is normal not to make progress. However, our two families are different, our family teaches us to be a truly strong person, otherwise we will not be able to gain a foothold in the yin and yang realm of life and death just by virtue of the name of quasi-impermanence. That's why our two families have had to accept family assignments since childhood, often engaging in some dangerous activities. ”
"It is also for this reason that when our Yin Fire two families unite together, they can compete with the alliance of the other three major families, and they faintly have the upper hand."
After listening to what he said, Huo Xiaolu nodded thoughtfully. The world is inherently unfair, because everyone has a high and low starting point from the moment they are born. But at the same time, this world is also fair, everyone has the opportunity to work hard, as long as they work hard enough, they will eventually catch up with others in the process of life, or even surpass.
Thinking of this, he shook his head helplessly, how could he have such a positive energy idea, could it be that he would change careers to be a life coach in the future.
He didn't say these nonsense thoughts, and Huo Liuli naturally had no way of knowing. She picked up the empty bowl, stood up, and said, "All right, you have a good rest, I should go." ”
Huo Xiaolu nodded, and then asked again: "By the way, senior sister, is Yi Ran back?" ”
Huo Liuli shook her head and said, "Not yet, but the person who accompanied her has contacted us, so there is nothing to do, don't worry." ”
Hearing this, Huo Xiaolu relieved himself and lay back on the bed.
On a sunny day, the snow melts slowly, and everyone comes outside to enjoy the snow and play in the snow. But none of this has anything to do with Huo Xiaolu, he is lying on the bed thinking about his own affairs at this time.
Golden crow physique, basking in the sun, snowy days. These three things seem to be unrelated, maybe your Golden Crow physique will have some connection with the sun, but you haven't discovered it, and the Golden Crow has nothing to do with snow, right?
Thinking about it, he didn't come up with the connection, but remembered another thing.
It's almost the New Year.
As soon as he thought of the Chinese New Year, his heart twitched and suddenly hurt, and then he was in no mood to think about anything else. His hometown has become a deserted village, and his parents and fellow villagers have no news. Now that the New Year is approaching, there is no excitement or joy in his heart.
If you don't have a family, you don't have a home, and if you don't have a home, what year will you have?
After thinking about it for a long time, he became more and more irritable in his heart, so he simply stopped thinking about it, covered his head with a quilt and fell asleep.
Probably because he was not in a good mood, Huo Xiaolu tossed and turned for a long time before falling asleep. He slept for a long time, skipped dinner, slept through the long night, and slept straight into the next morning.
When he finished his breakfast the next day with sleepy eyes, he was immediately called by Yin Xiao to bask in the sun.
Today's weather is fine, and there is not a single cloud in sight under clear skies, but because of the melting snow, you will feel a damp chill as soon as you walk outside. Huo Xiaolu added several pieces of clothes, wrapped himself in the shape of a zongzi, and staggered to the gate of the manor with a chair.
Today he was a little too bloated, and he was so tired and out of breath after walking so many steps. Finally getting to the place, he put the chair down, turned and sat down on it.
"Huh?" (To be continued.) )
