Zhu Qing asked Zhu Yan at this time, "Does Uncle Shi have any tasks for me to do?"

Zhu Yan lightly tapped Zhu Qing's forehead and said with a smile: "Of course not, go back and cultivate well." ”

After Zhu Qing left, Zhu Yan checked Qi Jian's body again and confirmed that there was no sign of rebirth before he temporarily calmed down.

Looking at Qi Jian's peaceful face, the thoughts of self-blame surging in Zhu Yan's heart were significantly soothed, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth that could fascinate thousands of living beings.

Zhu Yanpan sat on the ground next to Qi Jian's bed, entered a meditative state, and continued the process of his own cultivation.

The night was uneventful, and the next morning came in a blink of an eye.

Qi Jian's unchanging routine made him wake up on time and remember everything he had experienced last night, and he really had palpitations. Qi Jianyun's true qi walked in his body for a week, and he found that there was nothing abnormal, and his heart was a little calm. At this time, he turned his head and saw Zhu Yan sitting cross-legged on the ground, and a warm current crossed his heart.

"Xiao Yan not only saved me again, but also stayed by my side all the time. If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?" Qi Jian couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart.

A hint of coolness from his chest made Qi Jian notice a jade pendant placed on his chest, which was carved with a pattern of a true dragon soaring, which was extremely exquisite. Miraculously, his movements when he got up did not cause this jade pendant to slip off his chest, as if it was tightly attached to his body.

Qi Jian was quite curious about this jade pendant, and was about to take it off his body and take a good look at it, but as soon as he stretched out his hand to the jade pendant, he was stopped by a delicate voice.

"Brother Qi, don't touch the jade pendant, just let it stay on you. ”

When Zhu Yan heard the small sound from the bed, he knew that it was Qi Jian who woke up, so he immediately lifted the meditation state, and the first scene he saw after opening his eyes was Qi Jian stretching out his hand to take off the jade pendant on his chest, and when she saw this, she hurriedly stopped it.

Although Qi Jian obediently took his hand back, he still asked puzzledly, "Why can't you take it off?"

Zhu Yan's face darkened slightly, and he said apologetically: "Brother Qi, I'm sorry! When I was at the Shuangzhou Town Inn, I deceived you, and now I will tell you everything." ”

"Even if it is a deception, it must be a white lie, you are good to me, I know better than anyone else, you will never do anything to be sorry for me. ”

Qi Jian's trust in Zhu Yan made Zhu Yan feel even more guilty, and he almost had no face to face him. So Zhu Yan used a very painful tone to explain the ins and outs of what she had told her parents to Qi Jian word for word.

When he said the last few sentences, Zhu Yan realized that he was already crying. Pearl-like tears continued to drip from her beautiful lilac eyes, each drop like a fragment of her broken heart.

"Brother Qi, it's all my fault, it's me who caused you to change from an extremely healthy person to the current state where you can only rely on immortal jade to maintain your life. I know I have no right to beg for your forgiveness, you can beat me, you can scold me, you can treat me however you want, but don't drive me away. Now for me, being by your side and taking care of you is the only purpose of my existence. Please, Brother Qi, let me always be by your side. ”

Hearing Zhu Yan's prayer from the depths of his soul, Qi Jian's tears couldn't stop slipping down, he gently wiped the tears from Zhu Yan's face with both hands, and gently rubbed her face, that careful movement, like

Fear of damaging a priceless treasure. He used words containing endless love to melt Zhu Yan's frozen heart at the moment.

"Xiao Yan, it was your appearance that brought a bright color to my life. The days with you were the best and happiest time of my life. Xiao Yan, I don't understand why you apologize to me, I just know that I want to say thank you, you have always been by my side and never abandoned. Because of this, I should hold the hand of my son even more, no matter what the price I have to pay, I will never let go again in this life. ”

At this moment, Zhu Yan was surrounded by the ocean of "love", feeling Qi Jian's selfless love, which made her so satisfied with the choice she had made.

"I have no regrets about meeting such a partner in this life. This is the true voice of Zhu Yan that reverberates in the depths of her soul.

"Brother Qi, what you have paid for me, Xiao Yan will be difficult to pay off in this life. In the future, you can just use me as a maid, you don't have to treat me so well, otherwise my debts will only increase. Zhu Yan said to Qi Jian in a half-joking, half-serious tone.

Qi Jian also teased in the same tone: "Okay! After that, all the housework will be handed over to you, and you are not allowed to cry at that time." ”

"Housework is originally a wife's business, is it necessary to leave it to you, a big man? By the way, that jade pendant is the key to suppressing evil energy, you can't take it off your body, you have to wear it all the time to ensure that the symptoms of chest colic do not occur again. ”

Hearing Zhu Yan's instructions, Qi Jian couldn't help grinning, and wondered: "But it's 'sticky' to the outside of my middle coat now, can't I bathe and change clothes in my life?"

"This..."Zhu Yan had obviously not thought of this problem before, but now he finally realized that this was indeed a big trouble, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, regretting that he hadn't thought it through at the beginning and placed the jade pendant in Qi Jian's middle coat.

"In fact, now that this jade pendant has become one with you, it shouldn't leave your body easily. I'll go out for a while now, and see if you can take off your mid-coat without making the jade pendant fall off, and then wear it outside the jade pendant. ”

Qi Jian saw that Zhu Yan's face flushed slightly when he spoke, and he smiled: "We are already husband and wife who are about to get married, so there is no need to avoid suspicion so much, not to mention that I just take off my shirt." ”

Hearing what Qi Jian said, Zhu Yan's face turned even more embarrassed, leaving only one sentence, "You are playing a scoundrel, I'll leave first." And he slipped away without a trace.

When Qi Jian saw Zhu Yan's performance, he couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart: "Looking at her every move, she seems to be a child who doesn't understand the world, I really don't know how she has survived in the past 1,200 years." ”

Qi Jian used the smallest movement to take off his close-fitting middle coat little by little, and when the clothes slid over the area where the jade pendant was, he thought that he would definitely roll down with the jade pendant. But the truth made Qi Jian feel dumbfounded, after he took off his clothes completely, the jade pendant was directly adsorbed on the skin on his chest, fitting more tightly, like a conjoined baby that could not be separated.

"This jade pendant is really a strange thing, it seems to have grown with me, and it seems that you don't have to worry about it falling off in the future. Qi Jian thought in his heart.

After making sure that there was no possibility that the jade pendant would fall off, Qi Jian put on all his clothes and was about to wash up, but found that he didn't know where to go to fetch water.

At this time, Zhu Yan walked in with a bucket of water and a pot of tea, and said with a smile: "Childe, your water is here, go quickly."

Wash up. How about you take a sip of tea to clear your throat, and then let me take you on a trip to the mountains?"

"You are quite diligent, I can send whatever I want, I am very satisfied. After joking, Qi Jian carried the water to the private room for bathing and washing.

After coming out of the private room, he found that all kinds of fruits had been placed on the table, and Zhu Yan had already made tea for him.

Qi Jian took a sip of hot tea and ate a few fruits, only to feel that the fragrance in his mouth was overflowing, and an extremely comfortable feeling spread all over his body. It's just these few simple actions, but they fully reflect Zhu Yan's potential as a virtuous helper, which immediately impressed Qi Jian, and couldn't help but look forward to the better days of living with her in the future.

"After eating, Childe, don't be stunned, take advantage of this good time in the morning, I will take you to the mountain. ”

Qi Jian, who was falling into a beautiful vision, was brought back to reality by Zhu Yan's words, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Xiao Yan, I just got distracted." You said you were going to take me to the mountains, I just wanted to get some exercise, and this move was very much to my liking. ”

The two of them immediately set off for the highest mountain in Qingqiu Country---- Biqiong Peak.

When he came to the foot of this peak, Qi Jian realized what a severe test this mountaineering trip was for him.

I saw that this peak is about 1,000 feet high, towering into the sky, surrounded by cliffs on all sides, there is almost nothing to climb, it can be described as extremely steep. If you take a wrong step in climbing a mountain here, you will end up with nowhere to stay, and eventually fall off the cliff and break your bones.

After observing the surrounding terrain for a long time, Qi Jian showed a little sign of retreating in his heart.

Seeing Qi Jian's hesitant expression, Zhu Yan immediately guessed his thoughts, and said with a smile: "What's the matter? Scared? This is not quite like your character." ”

This "radical method" really worked against Qi Jian, he immediately put away that line of fear and hesitation, and said, "Xiao Yan, how can you say this about me? ”

"In that case, let's get started. Neither of you and I are allowed to use any tricks or spells, just rely on physical strength to see who can reach the top of the mountain first. ”

Hearing that Zhu Yan gave him a "war letter", Qi Jian's first thought in his heart was actually refusal, because he knew that even if he was just competing for physical fitness, he would not be Zhu Yan's opponent, but his self-esteem as a man made him unable to give up easily.

"It's better than that, is it possible that I'm still afraid of you?"

After saying that, the two jumped up with a sharp heart, Qi Jian on the left, Zhu Yan on the right, the two of them respectively grabbed the position of a slight arc on the cliff, and each looked at the place above them that could be settled, the two glanced at each other, bowed their heads to each other, and a mountaineering competition began.

When Qi Jian looked upwards, he found that the cliff became smoother the higher it went, and there was hardly any force point, and it was undoubtedly extremely dangerous to climb under that condition with his physical strength, and there might be an accident if he was not careful.

Thinking of this, Qi Jian suddenly forgot the rules that Zhu Yan had just said, and transported his true qi to the palm of his hand, so that his palms could be stably attached to the cliff, and he performed the light skill ----gecko swimming wall.

With the light power, the speed of climbing is immediately several times faster, because there is no fear of placing the palm of your hand in a smooth area, so the climbing efficiency is significantly improved.

At this time, Qi Jianyi's hands and feet quickly alternated, climbing the cliff like walking on a flat river, and in a blink of an eye, he had climbed halfway up the mountainside.
