Chapter 129: Mist of Light and Shadow
Farewell to the Yun family, the two of them went all the way to the wind and rain, and stayed in the water and dined. Finally, three days later, I rushed back to the forest at the junction of the clouds and the firmament.
"Mu Sheng, why do I always feel uneasy in my heart? It's the end of summer, and it's not yet the autumn that Liyan said, so I'm afraid that this time I'll be excited in vain. Gu Xijun looked at the scorching sun above his head as he walked, and wiped the sweat dripping down his sideburns again.
"Try it first, and be mentally prepared for both results. After days of rushing through the stars and the moon, Mu Juechen was also a little embarrassed.
"Hey, let's talk about it in the forest first, I don't know if this little guy Di Jiu still remembers us!"
"Hmm. ”
However, from the rising of the sun to the sunset, the green plants on both sides gradually changed from small trees more than one person tall to big trees, and there was still no trace of Emperor Jiu.
By the stream, taking advantage of the starry night, Gu Xijun ate the grilled fish with just the right degree of ripeness in his hands, and stepped on the cool stream with his bare feet.
"You say, Pei Qian and Xiaodie, their first reaction when they saw me was to hug me in surprise or to punch and kick me in anger?" Gu Xijun turned around and asked in a sullen voice.
"You seem to be nervous. Mu Juechen straightened his waist, sat cross-legged by the fire, closed his eyes and replied softly.
Gu Xijun hissed and took a bite of the fish and chewed hard, "Of course I'm very worried, after the trouble, I suddenly disappeared inexplicably for so long, I don't know what the chaos is like over there." ”
"Whether it is Mrs. Gu or Pei Qian, they are already people who can be in charge of their respective fields, and they are calmer and more calm than you. Perhaps, by the time you go back, everything will be solved. ”
"Hey, then you go back, do you have any plans?" After Gu Xijun swallowed the food, he suddenly thought that Mu Juechen was also in a hurry to go back before. It can be seen that there must be something important over there, and he can't rest assured.
"Naturally, it's back to the Forgotten River Stream. Mu Juechen said that the wind was calm, cold and detached.
At this moment, the fog gradually began to come, and with the firewood, it set him off like a god who does not eat fireworks in the world, flickering bright and dark, fluttering like a fairy.
"You won't ...... No, it's going to be ......."
Hearing him mention Lechuan Stream, Gu Xijun suddenly thought of Mu Shaoqing, and her startled heart suddenly locked, and she swished to her throat! She immediately stood up barefoot, stared at Mu Juechen's perfect face, clenched her fists, and asked loudly.
But the word sacrifice is like tearing out her heart and bones, like a fish in her throat, her heart hurts when she thinks about it, and she can't say it!
Mu Juechen didn't open his eyes, his slender eyelashes moved, and he explained indifferently: "Probably not!" When you and I came, although the Siyi Array had been damaged, the defensive mana would not be so vulnerable. Sticking to these days is not a problem. I'll go back...... It's something else!"
"Oh...... Then, then I'll rest assured!" Gu Xijun listened, his expression was like a smile, and he took a few deep breaths of relief.
Hearing the news that the circle was temporarily fine, she didn't know whether to be happy or sad. Happily, I can spend more time with Mu Juechen. The worry is that all the endings are already doomed.
With the constantly crackling bonfire, Gu Xijun lay quietly beside Mu Juechen on his side. Looking at his flawless face, he took the ground as a seat and gently closed his eyes......
When the sky was bright again, Mu Juechen had already hunted a pheasant, and turned it over and roasted it on a fire. At his feet was the bottle of fine salt that Gu Xijun carried with him.
Gu Xijun stretched lazily, sat up slowly, silently annotated the movements of his subordinates, and experienced the quiet of this moment.
"It's cooked, give. Mu Juechen saw her wake up, tore off a piece of chicken thigh, and handed it to her along with the mint leaves in his baggage.
"Hmm. Gu Xijun grinned, and was about to reach out to take it, but suddenly he screamed.
"What's wrong?" Mu Juechen frowned and hurriedly asked.
Gu Xijun's expression made a painful expression, and he didn't say anything for a long time, "I'...... I ......"
Mu Juechen put down the food in his hand, hurriedly walked to Gu Xijun, and helped her waist up, "Where are you uncomfortable?"
Gu Xijun's little head leaned into his arms, "It's not uncomfortable, it's just a cold place that I slept in all night, and my back hurts." It's so much better now. With that, she rubbed it in again.
"What about that?" Mu Juechen immediately pushed her up and quickly clicked on several acupuncture points on her back.
"Whoa......" Immediately after, Gu Xijun wailed. But after howling for a while, she was stunned, shrugged her shoulders left and right, twisted her neck, and was very surprised.
"Ha! Don't say it, it's much more comfortable than just now! You still have this skill, which is much better than those so-called Western doctors!"
Mu Juechen walked back to his original position, and suddenly said, "Then eat quickly, and then hurry." ”
Gu Xijun supported his hands on the ground and jumped up. Reached out and picked up the chicken leg and took a bite, nodded again and again, and judged, "Mmmm, the outside is charred and the inside is crispy, fat but not greasy, and the heat is just right." ”
Picking up the other barbecue meat casually, Gu Xijun's mouth was full, and he said inarticulately: "Let's go, I can eat while walking!"
Looking at her greedy appearance, a hint of pampering secretly flashed in Mu Juechen's eyes, but soon, he became ancient again, and returned to cold and indifferent.
By the time the two of them reached the thatched hut where they had first arrived, it was already evening, and the fog slowly rose again.
Looking at the smoky grass hut, Gu Xijun couldn't help but sigh softly, "It's been a long time, it's still the same here, but the outside has turned the world upside down." What is this called? The flowers are similar every year, and the people are different every year. ”
Looking at Mu Juechen again, his current eyes were also confused and emotional, and he replied with a light sigh, "The color of the flowers has changed this year, and who will be there next year when the flowers bloom? Then he walked into the courtyard with the package and came to the well.
Gu Xijun also sighed helplessly, feeling apprehensive in his heart. Walk to the well and look inside - there's no bottom in sight!
"Are you ready? Otherwise, I'll go down and test it. If you can't shuttle back, you can also pick up outside the well!" Mu Juechen stared at her delicate little face and asked suspiciously.
"I ...... I have some concerns. Isn't it a bit unusual that we've been unimpeded since we entered the forest?The most important thing is that the fog at night doesn't seem to have lost its previous toxicity, and it's all too natural!
Also, what about Emperor Jiu, she is a divine beast, how can she always disappear without a trace!" Gu Xijun said his worries in one breath.
Mu Juechen was silent for a while, "What you said, I haven't observed. But now that we're here, we have to give it a go!"
After saying it firmly, Mu Juechen took the initiative to grab Gu Xijun's arm with his left hand, and decisively took out Yichen Jue with his right hand and looked at her again.
Staring at his deep eyes that had fallen countless times, Gu Xijun smiled lightly, and resolutely jumped into the well with Mu Juechen......
