Chapter 172: Bai Xiaochun, I'm Sorry!
This night, the entire Donglin City, the whole city was under martial law, and the Xiuzhen family was all dispatched, and while searching closely, Bai Xiaochun and Du Lingfei had already left Donglin City.
According to Du Lingfei, her term of office is about to end, even if she returns to the sect early, it will not be hindered, so she accompanied Bai Xiaochun and returned to the sect together.
The night sky, starry, the bright moon hangs high, Bai Xiaochun and Du Lingfei are sitting on a mountain, looking at the stars and moon in the sky, under the reflection of the moonlight, Du Lingfei's pretty face looks exceptionally beautiful, she looked at Bai Xiaochun with a smile, and listened to Bai Xiaochun talk about the things that happened to Bai Xiaochun when the two of them hadn't seen each other for many years.
"Little belly, you don't know, those people on the south bank actually threw stones at me, and it hurt me so much......"
"Those snakes in the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes, I didn't mean to, I just wanted to make them cute......"
"And that damn rabbit, after you return to the sect, if you see it, you must tell me!"
"Those guys on the North Shore are too bullying, I think I went to the North Shore alone, no one dared to offend, and I was a man with my tail between my legs, but they still didn't let me go......" Bai Xiaochun said about the past events that happened in the Lingxi Sect, Du Lingfei sometimes comforted softly on the side, sometimes covered his mouth and chuckled, and his eyes showed just the right amount of worship and exclamation, which made Bai Xiaochun talk a lot.
It's just that Du Lingfei protested many times against the title of little belly, but the protest was ineffective, the more she protested, the more Bai Xiaochun called it that.
"Small belly, small belly, small belly ......"
Du Lingfei stroked her forehead and sighed helplessly.
Until late at night, the two found a cave on the top of this mountain, in this cave, when Bai Xiaochun was meditating, a light breeze suddenly blew, and the strange thing was that this breeze blew Bai Xiaochun and Du Lingfei's hair, but Bai Xiaochun didn't notice it at all.
Du Lingfei opened her eyes, looked at Bai Xiaochun beside her, was silent for a long time, her eyes showed complexity and melancholy, when she walked out of the cave, she looked up at the dawn in the distance, the wind blew her hair, Du Lingfei raised her right hand, and subconsciously wanted to put her hair behind her ears.
But at the moment when her hand touched the hair, those hairs actually penetrated her fingers and floated by, Du Lingfei silently looked at the blurred index finger at the moment, her eyes revealed more complexity, and she clenched her fist hard, and after the blur on her fingers dissipated instantly, she held her hair and muttered softly.
"Time is running out......"
After a long time, Du Lingfei returned to the cave mansion melancholy, stared at Bai Xiaochun, sat beside him obediently, snuggled up to his shoulder, closed his eyes, and showed a heartfelt smile on his face.
Time passed, three days passed in a blink of an eye, three days were nothing to Bai Xiaochun, he fantasized that after returning to the sect, his Heavenly Dao Foundation would definitely be able to attract everyone's attention, every time he thought about it, he was extremely excited, and he couldn't go back immediately.
And Du Lingfei seemed to want to make this journey slower, but seeing Bai Xiaochun's excitement, she didn't say anything in her smile, three days later, with the support of Bai Xiaochun's foundation cultivation, they were getting closer and closer to the Lingxi Sect.
In the middle of the night on the third day, when it was only a day's journey away from the Lingxi Sect, Du Lingfei proposed to take a break, and the two found a cave mansion in a mountain peak, in this cave, Bai Xiaochun talked about his danger in the world of the Falling Sword, and as he spoke, he felt a little sleepy, and unconsciously, he actually fell asleep.
There was silence all around, only the fire rising in the cave, making a crackling burning sound, the firelight reflected the cave mansion flickering brightly and darkly, and the sky outside was dark and quiet.
Du Lingfei looked at the firelight, for a long time, she turned her head to stare at the sleeping Bai Xiaochun, her eyes showed softness, more reminiscence, she didn't care about her body at this moment, and began to blur.
After a while, Du Lingfei sighed lightly, and after taking a deep look at Bai Xiaochun, her body was trembling when she got up, and she looked back at Bai Xiaochun again, looking at him with a smile on the corner of his mouth when he was asleep, as if he was dreaming of something.
She walked to Bai Xiaochun's side, gently, kissed him on the lips, and when she turned around, she walked out of the cave with a resolute and decisive expression.
At the moment when she walked out of the cave, outside the cave, the void was distorted, and nine vague phantoms appeared, and any of these nine phantoms were mysterious and weird, and even when they appeared, they actually affected the changes of the void.
But at this moment, these nine weird and mysterious phantoms actually bowed deeply to Du Lingfei, as if they were extremely respectful, like servants.
"Little Ancestor, the things you explained have been completed, a total of eleven people, all here. One of the black shadows, with a hoarse voice, seemed to come from countless years ago, and when he waved his hand, eleven heads appeared beside him, and these eleven heads, each of which showed unprecedented fear on his face, as if he had seen an incredible, unbelievable picture in a moment before death.
They are all secretly of unknown origin in Donglin City, and they have accepted the task of assassinating Bai Xiaochun.
Du Lingfei ignored those heads and the nine phantoms around her, she turned around and stared at Bai Xiaochun who was sleeping in the cave mansion, for a long, long time, she muttered softly.
"Everything I did in the Lingxi Sect was false, but the accident in the Luochen Mountain Range was real. ”
"I've completed the task, but I'm not happy, only sorry for you...... Bai Xiaochun, I'm sorry. When she murmured, there seemed to be tears flowing down Du Lingfei's eyes, but when the tears slid down her cheeks, in the process of landing, they turned into ashes and dissipated.
"Little Ancestor, this mortal body that Ancestor has created for you can't last too long, send me to come and guide you, do you choose to return?" Du Lingfei's side, one of the nine mysterious phantoms, spoke respectfully, and his voice was erratic, distorting in all directions.
Du Lingfei was silent, and glanced at the sleeping Bai Xiaochun again, she nodded lightly, her eyes showed exhaustion, and when she turned around, her body slowly dissipated, and finally turned into a wisp of green smoke, and disappeared with the nine phantoms around her......
And the eleven heads, at the same time as they disappeared, became ashes.
The next morning, when the light of the original sun sprinkled on the earth and shone in the cave, Bai Xiaochun opened his eyes in a daze.
"Little belly, I want to drink water...... Bai Xiaochun sighed, and he was surprised in his heart, since he practiced, he rarely slept, let alone such as this long sleep, rubbing his eyes at the moment, he didn't see Du Lingfei when he got up.
Bai Xiaochun didn't pay much attention to it, and when he walked out of the cave, he faced the sun and stretched his waist.
"I must have been too tired during this time to fall asleep, but I slept really well this night. Bai Xiaochun took a deep breath, only to feel that his energy was incomparably abundant, as if his whole body was full of infinite vitality inside and outside, and the nine-layer spiritual sea in his body had completely turned golden at this moment, condensed into the foundation of the Heavenly Dao.
His breath is no longer restrained, but sent and received from the heart, the spiritual power in his body is majestic, and every time he breathes, it seems that he can hear the sound of stormy waves coming from his body.
That feeling made Bai Xiaochun feel that he hadn't been so comfortable for a long time, so he simply meditated on the side, familiarizing himself with the wisp of heavenly dao qi contained in the foundation of the Heavenly Dao in his body, while waiting for Du Lingfei.
An hour later, Du Lingfei hadn't returned yet, and when Bai Xiaochun opened his eyes, he was a little anxious in his heart.
"Why haven't you come back yet?" Bai Xiaochun groaned and took out the sound transmission jade slip and transmitted it to Du Lingfei, but he sank into the sea and did not respond at all.
"No!" Bai Xiaochun immediately got up and began to search around, but until dusk, he searched all the places around, but he didn't find any clues...... Du Lingfei seems to be out of thin air...... Gone!
Bai Xiaochun became more and more anxious, and at the same time he was apprehensive in his heart, he had some bad premonitions, his face was pale, and his eyes were bloodshot, looking for it again.
"Little belly, where are you!"
"Du Lingfei, where have you been!!"
"Du Lingfei ......" Bai Xiaochun searched for four days in a row, and in these four days, he searched all the surrounding areas until he was disheveled and haggard, and he didn't find Du Lingfei.
"Little belly, did I do something wrong, don't avoid me, you tell me!"
"Du Lingfei, you come out!"
"What the hell is going on!" Bai Xiaochun was like crazy, he was short of breath, and finally returned to Du Lingfei's cave mansion, where he searched carefully, but still found nothing.
His heart was stinging for some reason, as if it was about to be torn apart, empty, this feeling, he had never had, he held his chest, his face was pale, and he recalled carefully, remembering that he had fallen asleep for no reason, and his heart gradually sank, and his eyes showed a blankness.
Even Bai Xiaochun's long absence from returning made the sect send people to respond, led by Hou Yunfei, as well as disciples from the north and south banks, and even Li Qinghou also appeared.
When they found Bai Xiaochun, what they saw was red eyes, sitting outside a cave, looking haggard, and the whole person had lost a lot of weight, like a daze like a demon.
"Xiaochun, what's wrong with you!" Li Qinghou saw Bai Xiaochun like this for the first time, and immediately felt heartache, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
Bai Xiaochun's body trembled, his eyes were still blank, he turned his head to look at Li Qinghou in front of him, and muttered.
"Uncle Li, Du Lingfei...... Lost. (To be continued.) )
