Chapter 3 Special Constitution
Waking up from a nightmare, Xi Yao only felt that her chest was stuffy, as if she was still holding in the water and couldn't breathe, she suddenly remembered the woman who looked exactly like herself under the water, and the words that contained reluctance and unwillingness.
"Don't let yourself regret it in this life..."
She opened her eyes suddenly, but something was wrong, she couldn't see, she couldn't hear, she couldn't touch anything, she had no sense of smell at the tip of her nose, she wanted to open her mouth to speak, but her throat was very tight.
Xi Yao seemed to fall into a void space, as if she was the only one in heaven and earth, wandering in the void, as if she could never get out. She began to be afraid, what would she do if she never woke up for the rest of her life? Could it be that she became a vegetative state and could only survive in a hospital bed?
Time seemed to pass extremely fast and very slowly, and just when her psychological defense was about to collapse, the sound of fluttering wind suddenly passed in her ears, and a warm coolness instantly wrapped her whole body, and the darkness of the void space slowly disintegrated like a glass shard.
The five senses gradually recovered, and it turned out that she did not fall into the void space, but was suppressed by a mysterious force.
Her eyes were free, and she opened them instantly, but she saw that her surroundings were dimly lit by the light of a little candle, there were no windows, no doors, surrounded by rudimentary brick walls, and moss-covered stones, and she lay on a shabby bed.
"Awake?" A slightly lazy and leisurely but unusually detached male voice sounded, Xi Yao heard the voice, and saw a man reclining on a rattan chair three feet away from the bed.
The man was dressed in a moon-white robe, with light golden tassels outlining a half-blooming bauhinia flower on the cuffs, and narrow peach blossom eyes under a pair of slanting sword eyebrows.
"This..." Xi Yao got up, her mouth was open but only half a sound sounded, Wujue had just recovered, her throat was still extremely tight, she cleared her throat, her voice was hoarse and difficult: "Where is this?"
The man smiled lightly and shook his head, "Don't speak, or your voice will be wasted." After saying that, he raised his hand and stood up, and there was a circle of shimmering water vapor in his palm, and the water vapor was automatically windless, and slowly floated to Xi Yao's side, but the closer she got to her, the faster the water vapor evaporated, and the white gas gradually bubbled up, and when she came to her, it had shrunk several times, and suddenly turned into a stream of white gas and drilled into Xi Yao's throat.
A burst of coolness dissolved from her throat, gathered in the dantian and dispersed, and the five senses that were blocked by her limbs were instantly opened, her eyes opened suddenly, and a red light flashed in her eyes, and then disappeared.
Touching her throat, Xi Yao opened her mouth slightly to try out, "This... What's going on?" The voice was clear, and the feeling of tightness in the throat was gone.
The man folded his palms back into his sleeves, raised his eyes and asked, "Do you feel better?"
Xi Yao was stunned, and only looked at it in a vague way, and now she found that this man was almost tricky, and there seemed to be tenderness in his deep eyes, but with indifference and alienation, as if the warm snow had not melted in spring, and there was a cold that rejected people for thousands of miles in the softness. Seeing that there was a doubt in those eyes, she came back to her senses and hurriedly said, "Well, well, it's much better." ”
His eyebrows hooked, half helpless and half soft, he got up and walked to Xi Yao, and walked to the bedside: "When I met the girl for the first time, I shouldn't have had many intimate actions, but your condition is menacing, and I am sorry for how offended Chu Mou." ”
A cloud of white gas condensed from his fingertips and put it on Xi Yao's wrist, and the white gas was steaming, as if it was extremely hot.
Xi Yao stared at her eyes in disbelief, whether it was the white qi that appeared in the man's hand for no reason, or the burning heat of her own body, all this was too strange.
"What the hell is going on?"
"The aura hit the body, causing the hot and dry qi in the body to surge, and the fire attacked the heart, if it wasn't for the previous soaking in the water to protect the heart, I am afraid that the body would have died by now. He explained.
Xi Yao remembered the nightmare in the water, and couldn't help but tremble with fear, but she didn't expect that it was the woman who saved her life, it turned out that all this was true, not a dream at all.
Chu Sheng carefully checked the qi pulse, and Xi Yao only felt that an extremely thin breath penetrated into the body from the wrist, followed the meridians, and slowly traveled all over the body. She saw a faint sweat on his forehead, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and a few strands of green silk that had not been tied up slipped down to her fingers, this man... It's not normal at all!
"But what do you remember?" Chu Sheng withdrew his hand and stared at Xi Yao with a sigh.
She felt a headache, the amount of information was too big, too big to accept, rubbed her eyebrows and said: "No, I can't remember anything" came to this strange place for no reason, everything is unknown, she didn't dare to say that she was a modern person from Beijing.
"Isn't it burned?" Chu Sheng muttered to himself as he reached out to cover Xi Yao's forehead, but was pushed away by her palm, and said a little angrily: "I really don't remember anything, and I hope Gongzi will make it clear, where is this?
A red mark appeared in the place where Xi Yao's palm was concentrated, and Chu Sheng looked at her funny, "I saved you, but you look like you're going to kill me." ”
The latter was stunned, as if he also felt that Shicai's attitude was not very good, pursed his lips, and whispered: "I'm really sorry, I may have amnesia and am a little irritable." ”
He turned around and walked to the bedside table, and said while pouring water: "The name of this place is Nanyang, and it is the capital of the Tiansheng Dynasty. My name is Chu Sheng, an idle boy in Nanyang City. ”
Now Xi Yao is finally willing to admit the unrealistic thoughts in her head - she really crossed over!
Looking at the sky speechlessly, she thought that she had not done anything harmful, how could this unfortunate thing hit her head, and the soul was just worn, or unlucky to wear. Miss Ruoxi was still Miss Wangfu when she crossed over, and she became a homeless person by herself.
Chu Sheng came over with a glass of water, pulled Xi Yao's hand, and poured the other hand, and the crystal water poured out, and all the brains poured on Xi Yao's arm.
"You!" Xi Yao was furious, and the words "sick" hadn't blurted out yet, but when she saw that the poured water turned into white vapor in the moment she touched her arm, there was not a drop left after evaporation, and she couldn't feel a trace of coolness in her body - she was... Is it hot?
Chu Sheng let go of her hand, put down the water glass, and said with a light smile: "Don't be nervous, since I rescued you, how can I hurt you again." This fiery spiritual power is so fierce that it seems to have been forcibly injected by someone, which is why your body is burning, and your five senses are sometimes good and bad. If it goes on for a long time, it will only get worse, and maybe it will really become a waste. ”
Xi Yao thought of the panic when she lost all her five senses just now, her heart tightened, although she didn't understand what Chu Sheng said about the spiritual power, but the situation was critical, and she hurriedly asked, "Then what should I do?"
"The only way to do this is to let the two forces in your body merge and dredge the meridians, so that you can get better. ”
Xi Yao's eyes lit up, "Childe can there be a way, if he can really cure me, Xi Yao will be grateful!"
"There is a way, but..."The corners of Chu Sheng's lips hooked, and a trace of softness gradually dissipated from the narrow peach blossom eyes, looking like a gentleman, but the bottom of his eyes was as treacherous as a fox, "Thank you for such words, the girl's family had better not say it easily." ”
Xi Yao secretly swallowed her saliva, hating herself for being reckless, there is no free lunch in the world, how can people help you in vain without taking a return. This man, it's not going to be...
Thinking of this, she grabbed her slightly open shirt tightly, with an expression of death: "Childe, the little girl is not such a casual person..."
Chu Sheng was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly he was silent for a moment, his face was stained red, and he finally couldn't hold it back, "Hahaha, where did you think of it, I'm not a villain who takes advantage of people's danger." ”
Xi Yao suddenly felt that she had lost face, her face was flushed, and she couldn't wait to find a hole to get into, clenched her fists, and silently greeted the eighteenth generation of Chu Sheng's ancestors.
After he had laughed enough, he said, "As for the thanks... Wait until you heal your injuries, don't worry. He looked around the dark room, "Just in case, I put you in the dark room to recuperate, surrounded by walls made of dark iron poured into the cold ice, and under the floor tiles is the underground water that connects the long river outside the city, which is transparent and cold, which is the most suitable for your physique." ”
Xi Yao was slightly stunned, before Xie Zi could say it, Chu Sheng had already turned around and walked back, as if he had thought of something again, he paused to leave, and glanced back at Xi Yao: "If it is a violent walk, it will be difficult to say..."
The latter was stunned, and then his anger soared, and he clenched his fists and said, "This... What are you going to do!"
Imprisoned in the ice prison, what is the difference between her and the birds that let others play with her, and the traverser is also dignified, okay!
Looking at Xi Yao's angry appearance, Chu Sheng smiled lightly: "The left and right are cultivation, so it's better to hurry up." ”
Xi Yao didn't understand this man at all, he was extremely gentle when he was a gentleman, and he was quite unreasonable when he was domineering.
"Ah, yes. Chu Sheng pointed to the cupboard next to the bed, hooked his lips and smiled, "In that cabinet is a special ice silk robe, if you don't change it quickly, this one on your body will be burned out." If you really tempted me naked, Chu would not have agreed to your previous way of thanking. ”
Xi Yao's flirtatious face was flushed, but she couldn't say anything to refute - this man, when... What a bastard!
The skylight of the dark room opened, and a faint light leaked out of the gap, and a righteous male voice sounded above, "Childe, do you need me to help you get up?"
"No, you don't. Chu Sheng waved his hand lightly, the latter seemed to understand that more sunlight leaked out through the gap in the skylight, but seeing that Chu Sheng was agile, stepping on the rattan chair with his left foot and a little on his right foot, his figure flew out of the skylight like a phantom.
It turned out that the exit of the pit daddy was actually on the roof of the shed...
The dark room was suddenly silent, so quiet that I could almost hear my own heartbeat. The modern Xiyao is also a graduate of medical college, and silently measured his pulse - sure enough, he jumped abnormally, twice as much as a normal person.
She changed into the clothes in the cupboard according to Chu Sheng's words, wearing this tooth-white gown really reduced the feeling of heat in her body a lot, and the slightest coldness penetrated into her body along the pores, which was indeed a good thing.
Xi Yaotan held his hand on one of the icicles, and the palms that touched each other suddenly steamed out a burst of white gas, but the thick icicles did not melt at all.
"I'm... What the hell is going on?" she muttered.
The void grabbed her palm, and a trace of sadness rose in Xiyao's heart, what happened to her body? What kind of world is this? Also, how to travel back again? Everything has become a problem that she needs to solve.
The dark room was originally the place where Chu Sheng usually meditated and practiced, and the entrance and exit were the same, and it was specially built in Chu Sheng's room for convenience, but at this time, the practice room of the son of the Chu family was occupied by a woman.
At this time, above the dark room, in Chu Sheng's room, a man with a black and blue sword stood beside Chu Sheng, half in awe and half in doubt: "Childe, do you really want to leave that girl in the dark room?"
"Otherwise?" Chu Sheng dusted off the dust on the moon-white robe, a little smile appeared in the corner of his eyes, and he said contemplatively: "Her spiritual power should have just awakened, and her nascent spiritual power has such a powerful power, it is really hard to imagine what it will become after training in the future." Moreover, if I don't put her in the dark room to calm the spiritual fire in her body, I'm afraid that the entire Chu family will not be enough for her to burn. ”
Mo Bai seemed to understand what his son-in-law meant, and nodded: "What does the son-in-law mean...... Do you want that girl to join the plan to pursue the Pisces Jade Pendant?"
Hearing this, Chu Sheng only smiled meaninglessly, but his eyes were as strange and shrewd as a fox, and he said with deep meaning: "Xiyao, this girl, compared to joining the plan, she is more suitable to become a sharp blade to carry with you at any time." ”
Mo Bai was stunned, and then understood the meaning of his son-in-law's words, but his long eyebrows were furrowed, and he said suspiciously: "Childe said, the girl in the dark room is named Xiyao?"
"Exactly, what, what's wrong?"
Mo Bai hugged his fist with a slight solemn expression: "Today, the second lady of the Xi family in the east of the city committed suicide by throwing herself into the river, although the Xi family was silent, but the head of the Xi family ordered to search for it along the river, so far... Even the corpse capital was not found, and the name of the second lady of the Naxi family was also called Xiyao. ”
Chu Sheng was also stunned when he heard this news, he stared thoughtfully at the entrance of the dark room, and his face was slightly covered by the hair on his forehead and could not see his joy and anger clearly.
Mo Bai hesitated for a long time and didn't see his son-in-law speak, so he finally couldn't help it, and asked, "Son, do you want to report this matter to the old lady..."
As soon as the latter raised his hand, his lips covering the back of his hair seemed to be curled, and he turned his face and said lightly: "The Xi family has been a scholarly family for generations, when has there ever been a person endowed with spiritual power?"
