Chapter 17: Important Things
Early morning, early sun, small lake.
Song Ping'an sat cross-legged on a rock, supporting his cheeks with one hand, slightly distracted. She didn't think that after being led by Lu Qiming through the cold and damp narrow mountain crevices, what appeared in front of her was such a picture-
After walking through a line of sky, the world suddenly opened up. When the moist water vapor blows on your face, you will meet the round lake in front of you. Surrounded by mountains, the lake is surrounded by a huge jade bowl. It's sunrise and the light is soft and warm. The smoke and waves on the lake are misty, like blue and purple, like a dream.
In such a scene, Song Ping'an felt for a while that it was as if the thrilling battles at night were as far away as a dream.
"It's a nice place, isn't it?"
Song Ping'an turned around when he heard the sound, and saw Lu Qiming pushing the door out of the bamboo house, looking at her and laughing. She was overjoyed and said, "You're awake!"
It really startled Song Ping'an before-in the chaos, Lu Qiming took her to quickly escape with cloud steps, and then went into the deep mountains and turned all the way here, and nothing happened. didn't think about it, before she could ask anything, she saw that Lu Qiming's body fell unconscious. She is not as proficient in medical skills as Lu Qiming, there is really no way, she can only see that his breathing is quite stable, and she is a little relieved.
Song Ping'an wanted to find some healing medicine from him, but she carefully touched around and didn't find a bottle, so she had to give up. She saw that there was already a bamboo house by the lake, and guessed that Lu Qiming had built it before, so she carried him into the house first. That's why there was this scene just now.
Lu Qiming had no choice when he was alone against the enemy before, and he kept holding on to his breath, but he could still hold on, but when he arrived at a temporarily safe place, his nerves were loosened and he couldn't support it. He smiled a little awkwardly and asked, "How long have I been asleep?"
"It's only about a quarter of an hour. Song Ping'an roughly estimated.
Lu Qiming nodded, feeling very relieved - he saw that the sky was almost the same as before, and he was worried about whether it was about "all day"; fortunately, there were five elements of Guyuan Dan as the foundation before, otherwise this time I really didn't know that I wouldn't wake up until the Year of the Monkey and Ma Yue.
Lu Qiming walked to Song Ping'an's side, sat down cross-legged, and looked ahead side by side with her. He admired the beautiful scenery for a while, and suddenly said softly: "This time, it's really thanks to you." ”
"Actually, it's nothing...... I've been following you for a long time, but I didn't dare to go there before...... Or the opportunity you created later," Song Ping'an tugged at a strand of hair, a little incoherent, she was most afraid of dealing with this kind of scene, "and you are really very powerful......
Lu Qiming smiled, didn't say more, and only kept this kindness in his heart. What he helped Song Ping'an before was just a gesture for him, however, for Song Ping'an of the Five Realms of Martial Arts, attracting a demon beast of the middle level of Xiao Zhou Tian was really risking his life!
In this atmosphere, Song Ping'an was full of discomfort, so he changed the topic and said: "It's so beautiful here." Didn't anyone else find out?"
"Naturally, there have been. But except for the road we took before, it was difficult to get in anywhere else, and there were no treasures here, not even medicinal herbs, and over time, no one came again. Lu Qiming explained, and then smiled: "I think that this scenery itself can be regarded as an excellent treasure." If you come here to practice at dusk, but you don't know how to appreciate the beautiful scenery in the mountains, what's the fun to talk about?"
Song Ping listened to him quietly, and then looked at the painting-like landscape, and couldn't help but nod in agreement. Then she thought that she was the kind of boring person he said, but where did ordinary people have the capital to enjoy such leisure? She thought about the difference between the two of them, and her heart could not help but feel a little gloomy.
Lu Qiming didn't guess Song Ping'an's thoughts, he took a deep breath of clear air, and felt that his mind became more calm and clear. He pinched the trick to meditate and pranayama, and said with a smile: "Moreover, in a refreshing environment, it is indeed conducive to cultivation. ”
Song Ping'an smiled slightly, took a deep breath like him, and began to cultivate. I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but she gradually feels that today's cultivation seems to be really smoother.
In the morning light, the two sat side by side, as if they had become a part of the picture scroll of heaven and earth.
......
In the blink of an eye, a morning passed peacefully. On the quiet edge of the lake, the fragrance of herbs lingers around the small bamboo house, which adds a bit of dust.
Song Ping'an sat on the bamboo bench and watched curiously at Lu Qiming's refining of potions. She looked at the various herbs and countless bottles and cans around her, and couldn't help but exclaim, "You have so many things here!"
"Every time I come to Twilight, I'm here most of the time. Lu Qiming nodded. After all, he didn't come to the twilight to treat people, so this secluded place with few people was very much to his liking, and he didn't worry about attracting attention when he practiced martial arts on weekdays.
Lu Qiming was quite proficient in refining potions quickly, but his expression and tone were leisurely, as if the two of them had really come here to play. Song Ping'an didn't have his concentration, and said worriedly: "Shall we just do nothing and stay here? What if they come to find it? You don't have to look for it...... Looking for your house to move the rescuers?"
"Healing and rest are the most important things right now. Lu Qiming smiled. "The twilight road is so big, and we are hidden here, I believe they won't be able to find it for a while. What's more, they must also have to rest!" As for the Lu clan's people...... He sighed in his heart - it was obviously "his own people" who were dealing with him this time, and he could not take any risks in his current situation.
Song Ping'an was reminded by him, and immediately remembered that the two of them were also injured a lot, plus the demon beasts later...... "Maybe they're hurt and can't find us, so they'll leave on their own," she said. ”
Lu Qiming shook his head and said lightly: "Since they are determined to kill me, once they start, there will be no way out." If I return to the Lu family alive, they will not survive no matter what. ”
That's right, dare to besiege and kill the descendants of the Lu family, how can the Lu family be merciful when they know it? Song Ping'an thought about it and said: "Then we can always heal our injuries here, and secretly go back by the path, forgive them for not being able to find it." ”
Lu Qiming smiled silently, with a coldness in his eyes - they would not let go of themselves, and how could they let them go?...... Provided, of course, that is, if he is given some more time. Lu Qiming can only hope that he will not be so unlucky, and he will meet those people in this place.
Song Ping'an looked at Lu Qiming's expression and realized it. She couldn't help but sigh that although Lu Qiming was so gentle and friendly on weekdays, in some places, it was still not difficult to see the unique arrogance of the children of the big clan.
As he spoke, the last elixir that Lu Qiming needed was also refined. He stood up and clapped his hands, and said with a smile: "You must not know a very important thing!"
"What's the matter?"
"There is a kind of whitebait in this small lake that is delicious!" Before the words fell, Lu Qiming appeared by the lake like a gust of wind, rolling up his sleeves and about to catch fish.
Song Ping'an was stunned, crying and laughing. She thought with a smile that he was so different.
