Chapter 9 Sojourn in the Spiritual Mountain
"Chief, when will I see my brother?"
has only been recuperating for four days, and this is the umpteenth time Liwanxiao has asked this sentence.
The little Taoist priest really couldn't do anything about her, so he put down the medicine bowl for her and said, "Your brother is seriously injured and has lost too much blood, Senior Brother Yun has been treating him, and no outsiders can disturb him, but I heard that some results have been achieved, I believe you will be able to see him in a few days." ”
Hearing this news, the big stone in Wanxiao's heart was finally put down, as long as Dugu Che could be treated, he would definitely not be able to die with his body's recovery ability, God bless!
I happily ate and drank medicine, and after a few days of recuperation, many small wounds on my body began to scab, and my spirit was completely relaxed. Taking out the medical book from the package, thinking about the master's prescription, I felt that this matter could not be rushed, these days she carefully studied the description of the yin and yang flowers in the book, only to find that this kind of flower is extremely rare, it grows at the junction of man and demon, absorbing the yang energy of the world and the demon world, the shape of the flower is half pure white and almost transparent, and half is black like coal wrapped in demonic gas, this flower originally grew luxuriant at the junction, but three hundred years of continuous border wars, so that it is almost extinct, and now it is even more unattainable.
It is not easy to get the Yin Yang Flower, and I am afraid that it is useless to be anxious. Thinking of this, she felt that since she planned to take Dugu Che with her, she should take care of his body, rather than dragging her tired body on the road with the two of them, it was better to recuperate here for a while, and then go straight to the border to find it after recuperating her energy.
Li Wanxiao leaned on the bed, playing with the medicine bowl in her hand, and had a small abacus in her heart, when suddenly there was a knock on the door outside.
"Girl, your brother has woken up, go and see him. ”
The little Taoist priest was very polite and didn't push the door in, after all, Liwanxiao is a girl's house, and there is still a need to avoid the difference between men and women.
Dugu Che woke up?
The little girl jumped up from the bed all of a sudden, ran to the door in three steps and two steps, and grabbed the little Taoist, "My brother is awake?"
"Well, he is seriously injured, and my brother said that even if he wakes up, it will take half a month of cultivation before he can get out of bed, so I'm afraid you will need to stay here for a few days. ”
The little Taoist priest led Li Wanxiao to the guest room where Dugu Che lived, and saw that she was anxious on the way, so he briefly said something about Dugu Che's situation.
Liwanxiao trotted all the way to the door of Dugu Che's guest room, and the little Taoist gently pushed the door open, and a faint medicinal fragrance came out.
Refreshing!
made the originally anxious Li Wanxiao calm down a little anxious.
The room was very quiet, and Wanxiao stepped into it cautiously, and the simple tables and chairs inside looked very elegant.
Walking into the back room, Dugu Che, who was lying on the bed, was covered with a thin quilt, and there was no trace of blood on his cold face.
Sitting down lightly on the edge of his bed, Dugu Che, who was asleep, dissipated his cold temperament, and his black hair and white clothes looked like a noble son who was as warm as jade.
couldn't help but stretch out his fingers to comb the broken hair in his ear, and the slight movement made Dugu Che slowly open his eyes, and his dark and deep eyes like obsidian gradually cleared.
Sensing his gaze, Li Wanxiao immediately turned his face away, took a deep breath, and calmed the inexplicable throbbing in his heart.
"That...... Are you feeling better?"
The atmosphere was a little awkward, but Dugu Che didn't seem to feel anything, he nodded slightly, and looked at the girl in front of him calmly.
The two of them, who hadn't seen each other for a few days, fell silent for a while, and under Dugu Che's gaze, Wanxiao was somehow a little nervous, and smiled dryly, "That's good, that's good......"
Dugu Che regained some strength and gently stretched out his hand to cover the back of her hand, he couldn't speak, but he could feel her nervousness.
Sensing Dugu Che's small movements, Li Wanxiao quickly withdrew his hand and changed the topic awkwardly, "You have been in a coma for the past few days, and I have nothing to do with studying the medical book given by the master, which contains information about Yin and Yang Flowers." ”
"The yin and yang flower that grows at the junction of the human world and the demon world has a very powerful power, and the legend can bring people back to life, I thought about it for a long time, and I felt that I should tell you about it. ”
During the chat, Dugu Che silently healed his wounds, while listening carefully to the words of the smile, in fact, his meridians had been injured, and three hundred years of imprisonment made his injuries even more difficult to heal, if it weren't for his strong will, and his body was different from ordinary people, he would not be able to sober up in just a few days of cultivation.
Seeing the pain in his eyes from time to time, Li Wanxiao paused, got up and walked to the table, poured a glass of warm water, and helped him drink it slowly.
"There is very little hope of finding the yin and yang flowers, but I will not give up. Thinking of the tragic death of the village chief's family and the master who was tortured to death by the plague, he couldn't calm down in Wanxiao's heart, "Dugu Che, it's safe here, and the environment is very good, I hope you can stay here to recuperate." ”
"It is said that the junction is deserted, demons are wandering around, dangerous and abnormal, it is really inconvenient for you to be injured like this, and it is inconvenient for you to wait for you to recover, and I don't know how long it will take to delay, so I ......"
"So the girl plans to leave your brother behind and go on her own way?"
After hesitating, a clear voice came from the door, and when he turned his head, he saw that the person who came was dressed in a pure white robe, with long hair loosely tied behind him, and walked in leisurely in the sun.
Li Wanxiao was stunned, "Dao Chief, you are ......"
The man walked to the side of the bed slowly, his eyes kept falling on Dugu Che's body, and the corners of his mouth pursed a light smile that could not be seen, and he said meaningfully, "My name is Yun Feiyang, just a little Lingshan disciple, but this son seems to have an unusual identity!"
These words made Li Wanxiao confused, and looked at Dugu Che, who was also confused, in her eyes, he was an ordinary son who was seriously injured, although he didn't know why he would be locked up in that kind of place, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was only one possibility, maybe he had caused some enemy before, so he ended up so tormented.
Yun Feiyang's gaze with a hint of cunning that he could see through but not say through it, retracted his gaze, retreated a few steps lightly, and leaned back on the chair next to him, "Girl, I just heard what you meant, and it seems that you are planning to leave?"
Li Wanxiao nodded honestly, "Our brother and sister have been bothered here for many days, and I really don't want to go, now that my body has improved a lot, I want to hurry up on the road, but my brother is too seriously injured, I'm afraid he can't bear the bumps on the road, so I have to bother the Taoist to help take care of it for a few more days." ”
"That's natural, this son was injured in my forbidden land, and I should treat him. Yun Feiyang said lightly, "It's just that the vicinity of this forbidden land has not been peaceful recently, we just caught a demon two days ago, and the woman in red with him has a strong mana, and she broke through the formation and escaped, but I believe that she must be lurking around here, waiting for the opportunity to save people." ”
"If the girl leaves at this time, she is likely to be in danger, and if your brother remains with us, it will be difficult for me to spare the man to take care of him. ”
"Is the Taoist saying that there is a woman in red lurking nearby?" Li Wanxiao's mind immediately came to mind the scene of being hunted down and killed that night, and the woman in red he said couldn't be the female devil, right?
As soon as these words came out, Dugu Che and Yun Feiyang's eyes fell on Li Wanxiao at the same time, and both of them were a little surprised.
"I heard my junior brother say that the girl was chased and killed before she strayed into the forbidden land, could it be that she met the woman in red?"
Seeing that Li Wanxiao nodded, Yun Feiyang glanced at Dugu Che who was contemplative without a trace, and had a thought in his heart, but he still had some doubts, but these were all things that the master explained before the retreat, and it was inconvenient for him to mention them, so the conversation turned around and said: "In this case, the girl might as well stay for a few more days, and after the crisis is resolved, I will send someone to escort you out of town." ”
The woman in red is indeed very powerful, recalling the bewitching and bloodthirsty appearance of the female devil that night, she still has lingering palpitations from Wanxiao, so she temporarily accepted the thought of leaving, glanced at Dugu Che who was speechless, and said helplessly: "Then it's bothering the Taoist, I'll take care of my brother these days, I'm really embarrassed to always trouble a few Xiaodaochang." ”
Yun Feiyang smiled leisurely, "The girl is polite, when the demon is caught, I will send someone to inform the girl, and I will retire first." ”
"Thank you, Daoist, for walking slowly. ”
Politely sent the Taoist chief out, and was just about to close the door, when he was suddenly blocked, and he was stunned by Wanxiao, "What else is the matter with the Taoist chief?"
"Girl, your brother doesn't seem to look like you at all!" Yun Feiyang's mouth hooked, bringing out a wicked smile.
"Well~" Li Wanxiao was stunned by this sudden sentence, could he see something?
"Dao Chief, don't hide it, this is my godbrother, we are just brother and sister, don't think about it. He blushed slightly as he spoke, after all, Dugu Che is indeed very handsome, and it is easy for people to mistake them for elopement.
"Oh~ That's it!" The meaningful gaze made Wanxiao even more weak, and Yun Feiyang no longer teased her, but lowered her head to the little girl's ear and whispered, "Little girl, stay with him...... Take care!"
After speaking, Yun Feiyang smiled weirdly, turned around and walked away, leaving Li Wanxiao standing at the door stunned.
It wasn't until Yun Feiyang's swaying back disappeared into the corridor that Wanxiao came back to her senses and closed the door thoughtfully.
walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and saw Dugu Che looking at her, there seemed to be some worry in his eyes, so he smiled and waved away the doubts in his heart. Although she didn't know anything about Dugu Che, he always followed her along the way, and in the face of such a man who had lost his memory and couldn't speak, she still couldn't bear to leave him behind.
"I'll stay here and take care of you until you're healed, so you can rest. ”
Tuck the corners of the quilt for him, and sit on the chair with a smile.
"Senior brother, the day before yesterday was forbidden to be attacked by two demons, I sent my disciples to do their best to catch only one of them, the other demon has a very high mana, Yun Feiyang personally led people to set up the formation, but she still ran away. ”
The white-haired old man in a silver-white robe stood on a big rock, looking into the distance, a robe with dark flower shading fluttering in the wind, listening to the words of the junior brother, the old man's expression did not change in the slightest.
This female demon is lurking near Lingshan, and Fei Yang guesses that she will definitely find an opportunity to rescue her companions, and it will not be long before she appears. Ye Xudao stood beside the old man with a heavy heart, "Senior brother, Shizun once predicted that the Three Realms will experience another catastrophe in three hundred years, only in this way can the turmoil be completely quelled, the plague has been rampant recently, and there is such a powerful demon heading to attack the Demon Valley, is it really Shizun's guess?"
The old man's indifferent gaze slid a trace of fluctuation, but his gaze fell on the unknown distance, "Senior brother, whoever is born of turmoil will be destroyed by whom, cause and effect are reincarnated, and God has its own arrangements." ”
