Chapter 35: The Recipe for Longevity (12)
She looked much more comfortable after recovering her original appearance, she licked her palms by herself, and quickly pulled back the arm that Qiu Chi had grabbed with lightning speed.
Somehow, Qiu Chi felt that she was a little familiar, and he didn't have the disgust he imagined, but the more he looked at it, the more he felt as if he had seen her somewhere.
But before he could take a closer look, she was gone.
As agile as he was, he instantly noticed that a white shadow on the right was rushing towards him.
Although Qiu Chi had quickly avoided her, there was still a cut on her arm, and red blood flowed down the wound, wetting most of her clothes.
Qiu Chi let out a "tsk", pulled out his saber from his waist, and stabbed at a white shadow in the void.
A sword broke through the air, and it actually passed through her body alive without hurting her at all!
"I didn't expect you to have some skills. He stretched out his hand, recalled his sword, and his sharp gaze fell on her, and he was in good spirits.
He's still a tough guy.
"The little hairy boy still owes some fire. The female ghost curled the corners of her lips and sneered, and did not stop attacking in her hand, and pounced towards Qiu Chi again.
Her nails were unusually slender and sharp, and as long as she was close to Qiuchi, she would always leave a wound on him. Because Qiu Chi's magic weapon was a sword and was not suitable for close combat, he couldn't help but lose the upper hand, he tried his best to distance himself from the female ghost and took a few steps back. He had been blocking her attacks, but he still had dozens of scars on his body.
When autumn came late, he wore a white dress and a silver crown. Now the white clothes are stained with blood, almost all of them are dyed red, and the crown of hair is crooked in the constant fighting, so that it is not embarrassed.
Gradually, his steps became vain, and he felt a little powerless.
He had lost too much blood from multiple wounds, and now he could still stand and dodge while defending against her attacks, which was beyond the limits of what his body could bear.
Under the female ghost's attack again, he couldn't dodge and took a hard blow. His clothes had been cut a lot by the female ghost's sharp nails, and at this moment, the loose fabric of his left shoulder was completely torn, revealing most of his blood-stained shoulder.
Qiu Chi fell to the ground, supporting the ground with one hand, covering his shoulders with the other, swallowing back the blood that had reached his throat, and he had no strength to resist.
He lowered his eyes, and labor pain came from the wound, causing his brow to furrow.
Master, the disciple may be planted here, and the master will be left alone in the empty Begonia Garden. He said in his heart, he didn't even think of his own safety, but the first person he thought of when he was dying was his master.
The female ghost wanted to give him a fatal blow, but her hands were already in his throat, and when she caught a glimpse of a pitted wound on Qiu Chi's shoulder, she stopped abruptly.
The wound was slightly sunken in, and although it was stained with blood, it was not difficult to see that it was an old wound.
The expected pain did not hit, Qiu Chi couldn't help but open his eyes, but saw that the female ghost's body was trembling, and tears could be faintly seen in her eyes.
For a while, she didn't attack herself, just stared blankly at a certain place on his shoulder.
Qiu Chi was very penetrating by her gaze, and hurriedly pulled the slippery clothes and covered his shoulders tightly: "I didn't expect you to be a pervert." ”
The female ghost was not annoyed, but was pulled back to reality by his actions, her hands trembling and wanting to touch Qiu Chi's face, but she suddenly withdrew it.
"You...... What's your name?Where do you live?Are your parents still alive?" Her voice seemed to tremble, and her hands dangled in the air and never fell on him.
"Shhh Qiu Chi stood up slightly, but he pulled the wound on his body, took a breath of cold air in pain, and his speech was not particularly steady.
"You...... Don't move...... You have injuries on your body, can you tell me first...... I, I'll help you heal ......"
Qiu Chi hadn't opened her mouth to cry out for pain, but she, the culprit, seemed to be more anxious than Qiu Chi herself, even stumbling a little when she spoke, and tears were faintly flowing out of the corners of her eyes.
Qiu Chi was a little stunned by her behavior.
She's ...... Isn't his injury due to her? What is she crying about? Is her name and net worth so important to her?
One question after another flashed through his mind, and he didn't have time to think.
Now this female ghost is only one person away from Qiuchi, and taking advantage of this gap, he looked at her carefully. She looked very docile, looking like a weak woman, if he hadn't personally learned it, he might have believed it.
On closer inspection, it is really familiar.
As if they had seen it somewhere.
“...... My name is Qiu Chi, and my parents ...... It's all gone. After thinking about it, Qiu Chi didn't control it, but he still said it, although it was ambiguous.
At the mention of his parents, there was a clear flash of disgust in his eyes and a murderous intent that did not match his identity.
"Qiu Chi, Qiu Chi ......" The female ghost was stunned, and kept chanting his name in her mouth, suddenly her eyes lit up, covered her face and retreated dozens of steps, choked and shouted: "No! You are not Qiu Chi! Your name is Chang An! You are the little master of the Chang family in Fuyun Town!"
Tears flowed down the back of her hand, and she couldn't stop it.
That's the little young master she wants to protect all the time! The little young master who has been protecting her in her arms before she dies! She promised her wife to take good care of the little young master...... What did she do......
When the long-lost name reached his ears again, it made him feel like a world away.
Chang An, that was his original name.
is always safe, why is he often not at peace.
“...... Who are you?" Qiu Chi got up from the ground with red eyes and didn't care about the pain from the wound, and slowly approached her.
"Young Master...... I'm Twilight......" The female ghost put down her hands, her eyes were already red, and she stretched out her hand tremblingly, wanting to heal Qiuchi.
Her hands are very cold, she doesn't know how long she has been dead, after becoming a ghost, she worries about Qiuchi every day, she forces herself to mutilate mortals so that she becomes strong and not bullied by other ghosts, only in this way can she find the young master, continue to protect him well, and avenge herself.
It's just that I didn't expect that the little young master in my memory has grown so big, and he has also changed his name and surname, worshipping Tang Wan as a teacher, and he is no longer what he was back then.
"Twilight...... Are you Twilight?" Qiu Chi gasped, his body trembling uncontrollably.
This sentence was so informative that he couldn't react for a while, his mind was blank, and he couldn't continue to think about anything else.
