Chapter Seventy-Six: Return to Hongmei Town
Lu Xueyuan was resentful at the moment, as if he had nowhere to vent his resentment, so he could only force himself to calm down and listen to what he said.
"Demon Sect ......" Bai Qi looked out the window with a dull expression and a heavy tone.
"After those people become the living dead, they will obey the orders of the Demon Sect and become their minions, doing evil for them in the world, and setting off a bloody storm!" Bai Qian said that he was distressed, then coughed a few times, and then said, "Since the death of the master, the senior brother has taken over the position of the head of the sect, and his contacts with the Demon Sect have become more and more frequent, and the disciples of the Hundred Poison Sect have all become his tools to attach to the Demon Sect! So... That's why I ......."
"So you know that we are going to save that child out, deliberately helping us in secret, so that Nie Huai'an can stop? But why do you have to block the sword for him?!" Lu Xueyuan asked puzzled.
Bai Qi looked at her with a deep and restrained expression, just like him, even if there were thousands of ravines in his heart, he would not reveal half of it. "I'm right to think so, but Nie Huai'an, a person with profound kung fu and is very good at using poison, if he hadn't given those people poisonous Gu before, how could they be easily arrested, and I did this, in fact, I took a lot of risks, in order to protect myself, so I could only ......."
"You mean, he's starting to doubt you?" Lu Xueyuan stared at his face and said nervously.
Bai Qian nodded, and then fell silent, and for a while the atmosphere in the entire room was extremely heavy, and everyone was thinking about something related to themselves.
Lou Yi looked out from the window, his eyes were bottomless and dark, he was so big, although he didn't grow up smoothly, but he had never really set foot in the open and secret battles in Cloud City, and now he had to think about how to deal with the problem of collusion between inside and outside the palace, maybe he was going to start learning to be independent.
And Bai Qi, as the second disciple of the Hundred Poison Valley, since the death of the master, the senior brother inherited the position of the sect leader, the Hundred Poison Valley is getting more and more different from the past, and he has long been fed up with the collusion with the Demon Realm, he has long wanted to replace him, but now is not the time.
Lu Xueyuan held her solitary sword, looking at the gradually dimming light in the room, a pair of peach blossom eyes suddenly darkened, she used to only regard revenge as the task of her own cultivation, thinking that as long as she had good skills, she could take revenge and wash away her grievances and shame in the previous life, but now there is something in the deepest part of her heart that is quietly changing, as if the stubborn and small wish before has been replaced by something new at the moment, it is deep but huge, and it cannot be easily declared.
"You can't say that I want to protect the world, right?" Lu Xueyuan sighed in his heart, and pressed this small flame in his heart.
"A-Yuan, it's time to go back, let Brother Bai face the rest by himself." Lou Yi looked at Lu Xueyuan with a firm expression, and called out to her in her ear.
"Then I'll not send the two!" Bai Qian wanted to get up, but was pulled by the wound on his chest, leaned over and lowered his head, and said in a deep voice.
"No need, you can rest for your life!" Lu Xueyuan smiled at him, and then turned around and wanted to leave here, but at the moment when he was about to step out of the door, he listened to the people in the room: "Many days ago, there was also a disciple of Qingya Mountain, who was caught here, but he escaped, except for the one you rescued, he is the only person here who can escape by himself."
Bai Qi's voice was paused, and Lu Xueyuan's heart trembled when he heard it, "It's frost-free!" Her eyebrows jumped, and she suddenly felt bad. Z.br>
Lou Yi looked at her affection at the moment, involuntarily stretched out his hand, brushed her shoulder, and said softly, "It's okay, doesn't it mean that he has escaped?"
"But he's still a kid, where can he go?!" Lu Xueyuan's voice trembled, and his almost uncontrollable cry quickly turned red.
Lou Yi was silent, sighed in a low voice, and attached his warm palm to the back of Lu Xueyuan's hand.
Lu Xueyuan felt the temperature coming from Lou Yi's palm, and couldn't help but lean over his shoulder and whimper.
"Miss Lu, this matter of human life is like this, sometimes you can't help others, and sometimes, you can't help yourself."
Lu Xueyuan stopped crying, wiped away his tears, and didn't look at the people in the house, but replied softly, "Thank you, Bai Gongzi, the mountains are high and the waters are long, and we are destined to meet again." only
Yes," she said as she walked forward, but suddenly paused and said to the people in the room behind her, "It's just that the rivers and lakes are vast, and everyone always has something they want to protect, and I think for Bai Gongzi, it is no exception."
After she finished speaking, she plunged into the twilight without looking back, the fog was thick and the sky was wide, and the figures of Lu Xueyuan and Lou Yi gradually left in turn. ……
The two of them went all the way, just like that, they came to the shore, Lou Yi put the boat on the shore, pulled Lu Xueyuan's hand on the boat, the cold wind and wet salt at night roared, he took off his clothes and draped them on Lu Xueyuan's shoulders, standing at the bow of the boat and rowing hard.
"I'll do it." Lu Xueyuan said, using spiritual power, slapped the hull of the boat with one palm, and then the boat seemed to have an automatic propeller, and floated quickly towards the opposite shore.
"It's still A-Yuan, who is better than me in everything." Lou Yi half sat on the hull of the boat, his eyes looked away from the distance, the night was hazy, the look in his eyes was not clear, but it only made people feel a faint coldness.
Lu Xueyuan looked at his face for a moment, suddenly looked down at the direction of Baihua Valley, and muttered: "I know you are upset about this matter, but, Ah Yi, you are very good in my heart, you don't have to know a lot of things, you have to be strong enough to protect me, so that I like it." What I like has always been you now, even if you can't cultivate immortals and don't have spells, I still feel that you are the brightest and most dazzling person I have ever seen." Lu Xueyuan said and spoke, suddenly his eyes were red, I don't know why he suddenly became so emotional tonight, it may be that he encountered so many things when he first went down the mountain, or he thought that there was still a lot to face in the future, and he didn't know what he would encounter.
Lou Yi listened to her say so many words, and was a little speechless for a while, but suddenly leaned over her, stretched out his hand and grabbed her shoulder, rested his chin on her head, and said in a hoarse voice: "It's me who is not good, I shouldn't have said that, I shouldn't blame you."
The two of them snuggled tightly, enjoying the quiet beauty that belonged to the two of them in the quiet atmosphere at the moment.
After going ashore, Lu Xueyuan took Lou Yi to visit the rescued little brother, only to see him alone on the hospital bed in the pharmacy, covered with a thick quilt, sleeping soundly. Lu Xueyuan had no intention of alarming him, just glanced at his sleeping face, and quietly walked out.
"Doctor, is there nothing wrong with this kid for the time being?" Lu Xueyuan said with concern.
"No, I'm glad you came in time, otherwise, I'm afraid it would be difficult to protect you!" The doctor said to them while busy.
"He... Is it okay to have a blue spot on your wrist?" Lu Xueyuan suddenly thought that when he entered the Hundred Poison Valley before, it seemed that they had all taken the pill given by Bai Qi, and he didn't know what kind of damage it would do to his body.
"That, it's a chronic toxin, it will make people feel hot in the body, unable to concentrate, dizziness and tinnitus in severe cases, sore limbs and weakness, I have a thousand-year-old ginseng that can be used as a medicine, and there are several medicinal materials that must be slowly matched, but this son has already instructed me! Girl, don't worry, we'll do our best for your friend's illness!" The doctor looks kind and has a good temper, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze.
"That's good, I'm sorry!" Lu Xueyuan smiled politely. As soon as she thought of the matter of Senior Brother Wushuang, she had palpitations, and she no longer wanted to let this kind of thing happen because of herself, so she was a little extra concerned about the child she rescued, hoping that the same thing would not happen before.
"A-Yuan don't worry, I'll take care of this matter." Lou Yi looked at her worried look and said with relief.
"Okay, I'll be relieved to have you." Lu Xueyuan looked at Lou Yi with a gentle look in his eyes.
At this moment, a call came from outside the door, "Master! You can let your subordinates find it easy, and you can go back when you say go, I waited for you in the restaurant for an afternoon and didn't see you back!" It was the subordinate of Lou Yi's family who spoke, Zixin.
Zixin grew up with Lou Yi since he was a child, and he was raised by half of his scholars, but when he grew up, he was transferred to the front hall of the palace on duty, and he specially ordered him to follow up this time, so he was very close to Lou Yi, and naturally he was not afraid of him.
Lou Zhizixin was not surprised to find this, Wen Sheng smiled and said, "You just stay in the restaurant, and you can't eat and drink, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Don't you know, just now the prince sent a message again! said that the princess was seriously ill and was dying! Let me hurry up and bring you back safely, otherwise, the slave will never think of stepping into the palace again in his life!" Zixin put on a bitter gourd face as he spoke, revealing a pitiful and embarrassed look, and Lu Xueyuan suddenly felt funny, and couldn't help laughing.
"Ignore him, he's just a faceless thing!" Lou Yi quipped.
"Oops! Master, if you want to say this, it's really a tormenting minion! I can learn from your heart, such as—" Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lou Yi, "Okay! Stop talking nonsense, don't you see a distinguished guest here?" As soon as his words fell, Zixin really didn't say anything, but looked up and down at Lu Xueyuan, left and right, like a mother-in-law looking at her daughter-in-law.
After a while, he happily attached to Lou Yi's ear and said, "Master, you are really a good eye! Which girl from this family is more beautiful than Princess Murong, the princess must be happy to see it, maybe this disease will be cured!"
His voice was half loud, but it clearly reached Lu Xueyuan's ears, she stood aside, although it was a voice, but her face had already been dyed with a layer of red, speaking of which, she was still a little nervous when she really went to see Lou Yi's family, after all, she hadn't gone down the mountain for a long time, don't make any jokes at that time.
"Less poor! The mother's illness was caused by her all day long, and it wasn't that my father was used to her, so it would be good if I didn't go there once! Don't be in that crow's mouth, if there's really a good one, I'll be the first to take you out of anger!" Lou Yi threatened. After finally seeing his relatives and family members for so long, Lu Xueyuan could see that he was really happy.
"Master, I can't stand it even if I have ten heads! If you want the princess's illness to get better quickly, you should hurry back to the palace with me, so that the princess can meet her future daughter-in-law as soon as possible!" Zixin is really an oily subordinate, and he even dares to make jokes about Lou Yi, and he doesn't blame Lou Yi for not giving him a good face.
"Alright, let's find a place to settle down first!" Lu Xueyuan said.
