Chapter 13: Nightmare
After cultivating in the "Ice Flame Cave", Nie Kong walked into the courtyard with light steps.
In the past three days, although Nie Kong has not left the residential area of the Nie family, he can also feel the tense atmosphere in Jiyang City, thinking that there should be a large number of spiritual masters from various countries who have heard of the "Fire Tree Silver Flower" and entered Jiyang City, but they obviously have a lot of scruples, and they have not made any big noise.
The undercurrent surging outside had almost no effect on Nie Kong, the thief who took the "Fire Tree Silver Flower". Since Xiangxiang had been asleep and had not woken up, Nie Kong's attention was mostly on the "Fire Tree Silver Flower" in the pet backpack. He knew that those masters were likely to sense the aura of the herbs, so he never took out the "Fire Tree Silver Flower", but secretly watched it in his pet backpack.
Originally, Nie Kong was also worried that the "Fire Tree Silver Flower" would not be exposed to sunlight, air and moisture for a long time, and would slowly die. But now, Nie Kong realized that his worries were completely unnecessary, although the little guy was sleeping, he still instinctively divided a few drops of natal medicine from time to time.
With the little guy's medicinal watering, the "fire tree and honeysuckle" is like a crop drenched with urea, and it is too energetic to do it every day.
After receiving the "Fire Tree Silver Flower", Nie Kong could clearly feel that the little guy had no intention of absorbing its medicinal power, but absorbed it while watering, it seemed that he wanted to use the "Fire Tree Silver Flower" as his long-term meal ticket. This discovery made Nie Kong quite amused, Xiangxiang is his own pet, and now pets have begun to have pets? After laughing, Nie Kong is looking forward to what the little guy can raise the "Fire Tree Silver Flower".
"Sister-in-law......"
The lights were on in the room of Huamei, but there was no sound quietly, Nie Kong snorted softly, looked at her door, and found that she was lying on the table and fell asleep again, so he quickly swallowed the words that rushed to his throat and put it back in his stomach.
There were ten wood carvings on the table, all of which had been carved.
The characters have different postures and expressions, or squinting and smiling, or gentle and elegant, or murderous intent, or arrogant, or staring at the group...... All of them were lifelike, and Nie Kong only glanced at them, and then he felt as if ten phantom shadows had rushed out of the wood carving, floating alive in front of his eyes.
Nie Kong's head jumped violently, he had seen these wood carvings countless times, but he didn't expect that after Hua Mei carved them completely, it would be so shocking.
He could be sure that Hua Mei had not seen these people with his own eyes, and his knowledge of them only came from the portraits of those Heavenly Spirit powerhouses of the Dacheng Empire that he had collected at home. However, Hua Mei was able to carve out their spiritual will with her understanding and imagination.
Although that spiritual will may not be as good as one percent of the Heavenly Spirit powerhouse, Hua Mei is an ordinary woman, but she can reach such a point, which is almost beyond the scope of skill. Nie Kong's heart was filled with a trace of admiration, if she was born in her previous life, she would definitely become a world-famous carving master, and in the Heavenly Spirit Continent, a world where spirit masters dominate, her talent and craftsmanship would be buried.
Nie Kong stepped forward, and saw that the carving knife was still in Hua Mei's hand and had not been released, and the table top was also full of sawdust, obviously it had only been carved today.
"Sister-in-law!"
Nie Kong snorted softly in some distress, and seeing that she didn't respond, he carefully took out the carving knife in her hand and prepared to carry her to the bed next to her to rest. But Nie Kong just bent down and stretched out her hand, and before she could touch Huamei's body, she woke up screaming:
"Ahh
Hua Mei's face was as pale as paper, her chest was panting sharply, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and her black and beautiful eyes were full of panic, looking ahead, unfocused.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Nie Kong was taken aback.
"Uncle ......"
Hearing the voice, it took a long time for Hua Mei to seem to be completely awake, her two eyes focused on Nie Kong's concerned face, her mind calmed down a little, she raised her hand to wipe her forehead, and barely squeezed out a smile, "Uncle, I'm fine, I just had a nightmare." ”
"Nightmares?"
Nie Kong's brows furrowed slightly.
Since the end of the medicine meeting Dabi returned home that day and found Hua Mei lying on the table asleep, she would be busy almost every day to fall asleep, Nie Kong thought she was too tired from carving, so he persuaded her to rest more, but even if she rested, she would fall asleep unconsciously.
I'm afraid this is not something that can be explained by the word "tired".
Nie Kong raised his eyes to look at Chu Chu's pitiful and palpitating flower eyebrows, and couldn't help but observe carefully. Being looked at by Nie Kong so closely, Hua Mei twisted her body in shame, and her pale face gradually rose into a flush at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then her eyes began to dodge.
"Sister-in-law, stretch out your hand. Nie Kong said suddenly.
"Ahh ”
Hua Mei woke up from her shyness, and when she saw that Nie Kong didn't look at her like she did just now, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stretched out her right hand.
If a woman is as busy as she is for three years, she will have calluses on her hands, but there is no trace left in the palm of Huamei, and the skin in the palm is still as delicate as a newborn baby.
Pinching Hua Mei's palm, the soft and slippery touch came from the end of his fingers, but Nie Kong didn't have the heart to feel this, and his right finger was on Hua Mei's veins.
"Uncle......" Hua Mei's right hand subconsciously pulled back, her expression was timid, her face was hot, as if a ball of fireworks had been ignited, and she was delicate.
"Don't move!" Nie Kong said.
Seeing that Nie Kong's tone was a little harsh, Huamei was startled, just like a child who was discovered by the teacher when he made small movements in class, and sat obediently motionless. After a while, Hua Mei secretly glanced at Nie Kong, and saw that his eyes had closed at some point, as if he was concentrating on sensing something.
Feeling the warmth on Nie Kong's belly, Hua Mei felt that her palms began to sweat, and her heart was also beating faster, as if it was about to pop out of her throat. This feeling of flustery made Huamei a little out of breath, and her brain was also a little dizzy.
"That's not right......"
Nie Kong opened his eyes and let go of his hand, muttering suspiciously, he didn't even find anything unusual in Huamei's veins.
Hua Mei was relieved, and quickly withdrew her arm, clenching her right fist tightly. She had vaguely understood that Nie Kong was probing her "condition", and hurriedly said: "Uncle, I'm really fine, I just had a nightmare, just rest and rest." Huamei didn't say it explicitly, she has actually been having the same strange dream for the past few days, dreaming that she has become a flower, but today she dreamed that she suddenly exploded after transforming into a flower, and exploded to pieces.
Nie Kong was also a little skeptical that he was too suspicious, so it was better to let her relax and relax: "Well, sister-in-law, I'll take you out for a walk tomorrow." ”
"Really?"
Hua Mei was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Uncle, I have all these wood carvings, and we will bring them together tomorrow and sell them all, okay?"
"Good!"
Nie Kong felt that it was a pity to sell these wood carvings, but it could be seen that Hua Mei looked at him expectantly, but he couldn't bear to refuse, so he had to smile and nodded......
