Chapter 33: The Gift
Day after day, Liu Chen practiced the trick of moving mountains diligently, and every pleasant afternoon, when he surfaced from the small river, he could see Beigong Fu's smiling little face.
"Liu Daxia, it's not good that you are so sharp!" The girl's tone was light, and while wiping Liu Chen's back with a towel, she raised her head and looked at the back of his head and said: "The academy sees blood, be careful that the master of the discipline is making trouble for you!"
"Discipline?" Liu Chen turned his head, took the towel from Beigong Fu's hand, raised his hand to wipe his face and said, "The discipline in the second half of the year is Xue Dadudu, he won't be too harsh on me!"
"Also, most of the governors are afraid of public opinion in the army, but they don't dare to put you, a combat hero, to death, you, looking at the foolish, I didn't expect to do things so old-fashioned, and it's really terrible to do things step by step!"
Liu Chen likes Beigong Fu's occasional coquettishness, whenever she rolls her eyes at herself in disgust, that little appearance is really cute, Liu Chen's heart is really happy.
Just when he looked at Beigong Fu stupidly, Beigong Fu's eyebrows were raised, and his eyes flickered and looked at Liu Chen's chest, which was where his heart was, I don't know how, Beigong Fu always felt that after Liu Chen was injured, the whole person looked a little weird, and when his chest was beating faintly, that feeling made Beigong Fu uncomfortable.
"What's the situation with you here, it always feels different from before!" After thinking for a moment, the girl frowned, slowly reached out and stroked Liu Chen's chest, and a trace of unnoticed breath quietly passed through her palm and slowly drilled into Liu Chen's body.
"Something accidentally splashed on his body, and then it went in, I don't know what it is, you study medicine, can you help me take a look?" Liu Chen felt the temperature from Beigong Fu's hand, which instantly made him a little red-faced, and looking back, this is the first time the two have been so close after knowing her for so long.
Beigong Fu nodded, slowly closed her eyes, and after a long time, she frowned slightly, opened her eyes a little suspiciously, glanced at Liu Chen, and said, "During this time, have you felt uncomfortable or abnormal?"
Looking at Beigong Fu's retracted Rou Yi with unfinished eyes, Liu Chen thought about it carefully, looked left and right again, and then lowered his voice and said softly: "Don't say it, there is nothing wrong with the body, it's just that this cultivation speed has accelerated a lot, last night, I reached the fifth grade of qi refining while practicing, at this speed, at the Luming banquet, I will definitely be able to reach the peak of qi refining!"
Looking at Liu Chen's high-spirited appearance, Beigong Fu smiled, took out a black stone strung with a red rope from his waist, and took his big hand and put it in his palm.
"What is this?" Liu Chen played with the small black stone in his hand for a while, the size of his thumb, and it was not carved, and it looked very ordinary.
"Do you know the Tower of Ascending?" Beigong Fu pulled Liu Chen to sit under the big tree, the breeze on her cheeks, making her feel very comfortable, and the smile on her face immediately stretched a little.
"Ascending the Tower?
"It's not like I haven't read. ”
"What's the matter, the beginning of the martial arts scripture talks about the Holy Ancestor and the God King, saying that the Devouring God King ascends the ladder to the sky, and the king walks a hundred steps and becomes a god. Tsk, it's amazing, I'll be a god after walking a hundred steps, and I don't know if I have that chance. ”
"You, you say that you are smart and you are always confused, it is simple to say in the martial arts, you yourself are a person who practices martial arts, how can you not know how difficult it is for the God King to walk a hundred steps, just like your human race Holy Ancestor, pilgrimage to the Tao, transcendent sainthood. According to your theory, wouldn't the Heavenly Saint Ancestor become a god in one day, really? ”
"Hehe, what do you mean, this little stone has something to do with the Tower of Climbing?"
"Hmph!" Beigong Fu squinted his eyes, cocked his smooth chin and hummed: "This is picked up from the Ascending Tower, when the God King enlightened the Dao, some Dao rhymes were integrated into the Ascending Tower, don't look at this stone is small, but it is spiritual!"
"Such a treasure, how did you get it, besides, what are you doing for me, it's too precious!" Liu Chen smiled and quickly stuffed the small stone back into Beigong Fu's hand, a treasure like a saint's relic will shock the world every time she is born, although she thinks she has a good relationship with Beigong Fu, but it will not let her give away such a precious thing.
"When I was a child, I went to the Climbing Tower, when the people of the Snow Country were not paying attention, I quietly picked it up, the Climbing Tower is towering into the clouds, except for the Devouring God King, no one knows how high it is, a small stone, it is a drop in the bucket, not as precious as you think, besides, I don't like to practice martial arts, don't you think those things that enter your body are a little weird, this stone can consolidate the soul, in case something goes wrong, it will save you!"
"This ......" Liu Chen hesitated in his heart, the artifact of the Ascending Tower made him fascinated, but this is Beigong Fu's thing, the gentleman does not take the love of people is the teaching left by the Holy Ancestor, this time, it makes him in a dilemma.
As if sensing Liu Chen's hesitation, Beigong Fu slowly stood up, walked around Liu Chen's back, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't tell you more, I'll bring it to you, and if you don't follow me, I will ignore you in the future!" As she spoke, she forcibly pressed Liu Chen's head, which was about to turn around, and wrapped the small black stone tightly around his neck.
The small stone was close to Liu Chen's chest, a trace of coldness made him feel very comfortable, all the bad things that had happened recently, and the trace of distractions left in his heart began to be slowly cleansed by that trace of coldness, making him feel refreshed immediately.
"Thank you!" When Beigong Fu returned to him again, Liu Chen thanked her very solemnly, but Beigong Fu didn't take this matter to heart at all, but picked up the scroll and talked to Liu Chen about other things.
When he returned to his small courtyard, Liu Chen saw Wu Tong looking at him with a smile on his face, the smile was a little infiltrating, and Liu Chen couldn't help frowning and choking: "What are you doing with such a thief?"
"The end has just come!"
"You were beaten like this, shouldn't she come?" Liu Chen took the raw melon handed by the little monk, sat under the old locust tree and sneered at Wu Tong: "Look at this makes you happy, after Lao Tzu is busy outside, it's better for you to stay in the gentle township, and you can't miss it." ”
"Don't mind, do you know that Momo came back to you?"
"What?"
"Xu Yuyao asked her to tell you, she misses you very much, and I hope you can bear with it for a while, just wait until her senior sister comes back!"
"Huh. Liu Chen wiped his mouth indiscriminately, curled the corners of his mouth and sneered: "Of course I will 'forbear' for a while!"
Wu Tong is still so heartless, he and the weekend of the two little guessless feelings also made Liu Chen very envious, he didn't understand before, he thought that he had money, and he could marry the daughter of the tavern owner in Fancheng, even if it was the pinnacle of life, but now he understands, the girl who stood under the weeping willow tree and smiled at himself on a spring afternoon was Haotian's biggest gift to his life.
