Chapter 16: The Chilled Prince
Ying Long, who had been incarnated from the Emperor, gradually shrank until the top of the dragon's head was about one and a half as tall as me. If it weren't for the breath of Away, I would have felt like he was dead.
There was such a big snow in the sky, and these snowflakes quickly accumulated, but there was no snow on Lixiao's body, and the snowflakes fell on Lixiao's body and burned into water vapor and drifted away.
Reaching out and touching the dragon scales from his neck, the temperature was extremely hot, and the moment I touched him, he leaned the huge dragon head next to me, startling me.
When I touched him again, he came closer to me again. It's probably because my body temperature is cold because of the cold in my body, and his body temperature is hot, so he needs me to cool him down.
I put my other hand on the dragon's neck and moved closer to me.
I took off the coat on my body to block the cold, and asked Yun Yin to help me take it back to the house and put it away, and I simply leaned on my neck. Anyway, it's a waste to keep the cold on my body, and it's good to be able to cool down the li.
A few immortal officials were about to breathe, and they came to find the prince together, and when they saw that they were about to kneel, I hurriedly made a silent gesture to them, and waved their hands to let them hurry down, so as not to disturb the prince's rest. Those immortal officials were also sensible, and they understood what I meant, so they all went back to their respective rooms to rest.
Just leaning on Lixiao's side, Lixiao's breathing gradually stabilized, and slowly, the temperature on Ying Long's body seemed to drop a little, but his eyelids were still hot. I struggled to climb onto the dragon's head, lay down next to the dragon's horn, first cover Ying Long's left eye with both hands, and when its left eye was not so hot, I changed to a dragon horn and put both hands on Ying Long's right eyelid.
All night, I was busy around Yinglong, and where it was hot again, I ran to paste it for a while.
Tossed until the sky was white, I was about to wake up, I was sleepy, I was helped back to the house by Yun Yin, and fell asleep on the bed.
When I woke up, it was dark again, and I thought the prince had never woken up, but Yun Yin told me that His Royal Highness the prince and the gods had been doing another day of rituals, and now the prince was sleeping soundly next to the house again.
I asked Yun Yin if the prince could have a situation of not supporting the Dharma during the day. Yun Yin told me that there was no difference between watching the prince's sacrifice and yesterday.
Thinking that it would be effective for me to help the prince cool down his fever at night, I simply ran to act as an ice lump for the night.
It went on and on, and for a whole month, I lived upside down with others.
When others woke up and went to do the rituals, I fell asleep with sleepiness. When the others were tired and fell asleep after the rituals, I got up and went to do the ice lumps.
Of course, this is not entirely for the sake of the heavenly realm and the prince, but also after one or two times, I found that I don't wear the robe that blocks the cold, and Yunyin and they don't feel that it is colder than this mountain in my house, it seems that I helped the prince cool down, and the prince also increased the temperature for me, and both benefited from it, so I simply persevered.
It wasn't until the end of the month that I remembered that I hadn't touched the lyre once. I finally learned a little, but I'm afraid I'm going to forget it again. When he went back and played it to Yebai, his ears would only be more uncomfortable.
On the day he left, he returned to his human form. There was no need to do the sacrifice that day, and he looked at Youze with his hands behind his back for a long time.
Yun Yin and the others were busy demolishing the house and restoring the wood and thatch to the way they came, and I had nothing to do to go up and chat with the prince for a few words, and then I saw that there was no blood in his eyes, and this secluded water, although the smell was not as pungent as when it came, was still muddy.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, in the future, at this time of year, you will have to do a sacrifice to purify the secluded landscape?"
He didn't say a word, but nodded and answered me.
I feel much more relieved that he is cold to me like this. The things I have done at night in the past month are only known to me and Yunyin, and this prince still doesn't know.
I only hope that the crown prince will become stronger by this time next year, lest if I don't follow him to the Dharma at this time next year, he will really fall ill in the secluded water, causing the gods in the heavenly realm to be leaderless and the heavenly palace to be in chaos, which will also affect my stable life.
The first thing I did when I returned to the Heavenly Palace was to run to tie up the Immortal Pagoda, squatted outside the tower and said something to Yebai, telling him that my skill in playing the piano had been abandoned for a month, and that I would come to play the piano for him after I was familiar with it for two days.
When I returned to Linghuang Palace, I pinched my fingers and calculated, I felt that the separation was incomparably long, but it was actually less than a year. Suddenly the long wait of ninety-nine years was full of resentment.
Ask Yun Yin, these immortals will take decades or hundreds of years to close a bundle of immortal towers at every turn, how can they pass this year and year to pass faster.
Yun Yin, who asked me this question, was a little inexplicable, thought about it, and blessed me: "Back to God, the most important thing to be an immortal is cultivation, and cultivation is extremely time-consuming." If you encounter something difficult to comprehend in your cultivation, or if you go around to the heavenly realm to subdue demons and subdue demons and damage your cultivation and get injured, you will retreat, and a retreat will be less than a few months, but more than a few decades or even hundreds of years. Whether it is meditation or retreat, the moment the words are broken, the mind and deeds are extinguished, and the moment the eyes are closed and delusions are broken, the outside world is no longer perceived, and the time passes quickly or slowly, and it is impossible to feel it. β
Yun Yin almost clapped my hands when I heard this, in order to make my god not appear too distant, I suppressed the applause in my heart and cleared my throat, "Ahem, yes, I mean, how can an immortal like me who has no intention (not) cultivating make life go by faster." β
"It's hard for the gods to hide it, if you don't do your cultivation homework, then every day is like a mortal mortal, except for often doing something you like and interesting, I'm afraid there is no good way. Speaking of this, Yun Yin rolled his eyes, "Unlessβ"
I was about to despair, and when I saw that the clouds seemed to be turning, I quickly asked, "Don't sell Guanzi, unless what?"
"This method is not good, so I still don't talk about it and listen to God. β
I pressed Yun Yin's hand on the lyre, and Yun Yin exclaimed in shock: "God God, strings and strings!"
After I came back from Zhoushan, I was in a hurry to practice the piano, but because my hand was rusty again, I broke one on the hand, and Yun Yin just changed the strings of the piano and was correcting the sound of the piano.
Letting go of Yun Yin, I pretended to be angry, "I've been with the gods for a long time, and I'm starting to have no rules?"
Yun Yin hurriedly lowered his head, "Yun Yin doesn't dare, he is not angry." The method Yun Yin said was really a bad method, that is...... It's ......"
"Don't say it yet!"
