Chapter 15: Guardianship
[Regain the fairy root, silent parting on a moonlit night] fourth
On the grassy slope outside Qingyang Town, Xiao Fei in the thatched hut closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, but his five senses were concentrated at the door, because he knew that Lin Yutong would leave him soon, and they would say a silent goodbye at the end.
Next door to him, Lin Yutong had already cleaned up, and for some reason, she changed into a white tight-fitting robe that she had rarely wore, which was the robe of a female cultivator of the Nanhai School. Under the cold moon, the robe woven by the white spirit feather sets off the pretty figure, which is even more extraordinary, and a cold aura seems to contain her in the cold moon. If mortals in the world see this, they will definitely think that the immortals are coming. The sword was lost in the back. However, she was about to leave, and for some reason, her mind was uneasy, although she had already made a decision, but her heart couldn't help but hover left and right, as if she was about to lose her most important thing. Eventually, however, she made up her mind and pushed the door open and walked out.
The moonlight outside the house was hazy, and there was peace in the four fields. In the dark night, she was dressed in white and became more and more prominent. She stood quietly in the courtyard, not leaving immediately, but listening to Tong Fei's even breathing from the next room. She hesitated for a moment, but finally took a step forward and pushed open Tong Fei's hidden door.
Tong Fei in the house couldn't help but jump in his heart, and said in his heart: Why did she come in? Isn't she reluctant to give up on me? Isn't she ready to leave?
Tong Fei's mind suddenly became confused, and his breathing almost trembled, but in the end, he still tried to stay calm. Because he told himself that he couldn't let Lin Yutong notice his reluctance. What he thought was that he had always been Lin Yutong's oil bottle, and he was a burden. Before, it was because she was her mother, and it was natural for her son to rely on his mother. But now it is known that they are not related by blood. In this way, Tong Fei naturally felt that he could no longer rely on Lin Yutong. Besides, people are about to break through the knot now, how can they spend time and energy for a rookie like him. Tong Fei felt the familiar breath from far and near, and recently stopped at his place. His chest throbbed violently, though he had decided. But he still couldn't help it, he wanted to rush up and hug Lin Yutong and tell her that he wouldn't let her go! But he didn't move in the end.
Lin Yutong stood for a while, sighed softly, and then walked closer, came to Tong Fei's bedside, and stretched out his hand to tuck the quilt for Tong Fei. Then he took out another bag and gently placed it next to Tong Fei's pillow. He was silent for a long time, and then he turned around and wanted to leave.
For some reason, Tong Fei couldn't hold back any longer, and a grunt sounded in his throat.
Lin Yutong seemed to be stunned, turned around and saw that Tong Fei was still sleeping soundly with his back to the sky, Lin Yutong smiled, but did not stay any longer, turned his head, and quickly disappeared at the door.
Soon, listening to the faint sound of the wind, Tong Fei knew that Lin Yutong was really gone! He got up from the bed with a grunt and rushed out of the house. There was silence all around, except for the long shadows of the trees reflected in the cold moon.
"She's really gone!" Tong Fei muttered into the night sky, tears of anger coming out of his eyes again. He stood still in the night wind, as if he had been completely lost. He wanted to call his mother, but he couldn't! It wasn't until the moonlight turned west that Tong Fei seemed to wake up from his trance, and slowly walked back to the hut.
Inside, in the faint light of the sky, there were only empty walls. Tong Fei suddenly felt lonely as he had never felt before. He had waited alone more than once. But this time it's completely different. He really became an orphan! I saw the object left by Lin Yutong on the bedside. That's exactly their baggage.
Tong Fei remembered that there were at least three or four burdens like this before, which were once stuffed with bottles and cans, which were all things that Lin Yutong usually used, as well as things and materials that Tong Fei bought from Fang City. I remember that every time he moved, Tong Fei used to complain about trouble, and at that time he thought that if he could learn a spell and make these things smaller, it wouldn't be so troublesome. Now that he finally has a sparrow, unfortunately, he may not need it again in the future.
Tong Fei stepped forward and opened the baggage, this should be Tong Fei's thing. And Lin Yutong's thoughts have been taken away. Open the baggage, there is a brand new clothing on it, it seems that there is still a silk aura, it should be a spiritual silk weaving, Tong Fei has seen it in Fang City, it costs thousands of spirit stones. At that time, Tong Fei felt that it was too expensive and didn't dare to expect extravagance, but now it is really in Tong Fei's hands.
"It turned out that she had been prepared. Tong Fei couldn't help but feel a trace of warmth in his heart, and the emotions of longing and reluctance came to his heart again. He felt a trace of pain in his heart, as if he had been cut off by life.
There are still some spirit stones in the baggage, which must have been left for Tong Fei. There are also two reels. One volume is "The Book of Hundred Poisonous Herbs", and the other is "Poisonous Shadow Escape". This seems to have been left by Lin Yutong for Tong Fei.
Tong Fei continued to look through the baggage, and suddenly his hand touched an object. It's a box. Tong Fei's heart couldn't help but tremble.
"This, what's going on, this is the box she used to heal! Why did she stay! Could it be that she didn't say goodbye, she wanted to come back!"
Tong Fei suddenly felt hope in his heart for some reason. It's the same as before. As long as you wait, Lin Yutong will definitely come back!
I remember Lin Yutong said that this thing is very important to her, as long as this thing is there, even if she is seriously injured, she can recover quickly. But every time she goes out, she always doesn't take it with her, but stays in the baggage and hands it over to Tong Fei.
At one point, Tong Fei had a belief that as long as this box was there, Lin Yutong would come back.
Tong Fei calmed down, opened the box, and a pure yin aura came to his face. Tong Fei fixed his eyes and saw that it was a large and round bead, emitting a colorful shape.
"That's how it feels!" Tong Fei thought almost excitedly. Every time the box was opened, although Tong Fei was far away, he could feel a cold aura enveloping him, just a colorful snake.
"Could it be that she had forgotten? How could she have forgotten something so important. Maybe she's really gone for a few days. Tong Fei would rather think so, and his heart suddenly settled down.
Tong Fei thought of this and was about to close the box, when suddenly the colorful beads shone brightly, and then the hole opened with a bang, revealing the appearance of a big snake. Tong Fei was taken aback.
But a consciousness drilled into his mind: "Xiao Fei, Tong Fei!"
Tong Fei vaguely felt a call, but this call was so familiar. This is the mother is calling!
Tong Fei was almost so frightened that he lost the box, but the familiar call of this life made him calm down.
"Why does this snake have her breath? and consciousness will summon!" Tong Fei was hesitating, and suddenly that consciousness spoke again in his mind: "Don't be afraid, Tong Fei, I want to wait for you to open the box, and when you hear all this, I have already left." There are secrets that I can't tell you, but I have to. So I can only speak through my spirit beads......"
Tong Fei heard this and realized that the spirit bead left behind was called the spirit bead, which was a trace of the poisonous spirit in Lin Yutong's body.
The poison spirit is said to be the life's work of Lin Yutong's grandfather, Qian Poison. At the time of completion, one can have seven major souls. They are Guard, Fight, Hide, Devour, Heal, and Regenerate. It was once rumored in the rivers and lakes that Thousand Poisons was really a genius, and he left the regenerated soul to his granddaughter, and then sent her to the South China Sea to cultivate.
At that time, he seemed to feel his own crisis, and deliberately left behind. Because as long as the regenerated soul is still there, even if the other souls are all destroyed, his inheritance will not be broken, just like a seed, even if the old root is broken, the seed can continue to multiply.
The same is true for poison spirits, as long as the regenerated souls are still there, even if the other souls die out, new spirits can continue to be born, and eventually split into other souls. The poison spirit carries the entire inheritance of the thousand poisons, and will continue to grow with the improvement of Lin Yutong's cultivation.
Since Lin Yutong completed the foundation building, the poisonous spirit has also divided into four major souls: protection, combat, healing and regeneration. In the past, every time she went out, she would leave the regeneration soul for Tong Fei to keep, so even if she was seriously injured, as long as she came back, the regeneration spirit could repair the damage in her body. In fact, Tong Fei made some pills, which only accelerated her healing, but actually played a small role. But Lin Yutong never stopped Tong Fei from doing that, maybe because they had been in love for a long time.
Now Lin Yutong has left behind the soul of protection, in order to leave some life-saving secret skills for Tong Fei. She knew that although Tong Fei had recovered from the spiritual root, he also had some preliminary mana. But after all, it is still very weak. Lin Yutong knows very well that the rivers and lakes are sinister, if she leaves, she really doesn't worry about Tong Fei going alone. With this guardian spirit, it can play a certain role at a critical time.
In addition, it is also a comfort to Tong Fei, so that he always feels that Lin Yutong has not left his side. Also, one day Lin Yutong wants to find Tong Fei, and he can find Tong Fei with this trace of distraction. This is also Lin Yutong's carefulness.
Tong Fei completely understood now, and he suddenly felt that he was so heavy in Lin Yutong's heart. He finally fell to his knees, hugged the box and began to cry.
