Hunting Heart Little Mengxian: Rebirth and Raising a Wolf
Chapter 30 1nd time
Chapter 30 The first time
Unexpectedly, the one who is not close to women and cannot have any skin-to-skin contact with women is actually the Immortal Li Wu, but why should Huangfuyi's body suffer this crime for him?
In other words, in this way, he, Huangfu Yi, is a young man who has already been "renamed" by Jiu Xiaohan to Liang Ziyu. In the future, maybe he will not be able to marry a wife and have children, and enjoy family happiness without blessings?
The more he thought about it, the more the "wolf boy" licked harder, he quickly took the initiative to glance away from the palm that Jiu Xiaohan was holding, and turned sideways to the side.
Jiu Xiaohan hastily took out a few more black lantern fruits from his bosom, without further ado, took a step forward, and lifted them directly to Liangziyu's lips:
"Quickly take it! I'm used to it! Clear lungs, reduce phlegm, relieve cough, regulate breath and regulate qi, it will make your throat and airway feel more comfortable!"
The young man's expression was obviously a bit hesitant. Now, he is very afraid to touch Jiu Xiaohan directly with any part including his own lips:
"Thank you...thank you Miss Xiaohan. Cough cough...I'll do it myself, that's fine!"
When he raised his arm, he also took advantage of the trend, and slightly separated himself and Jiu Xiaohan by a little more space.
Then, he twisted his fingertips, picked up all the small sweet fruit particles from Jiu Xiaohan's palm, and put them all in his mouth.
The sweet and delicious taste, refreshing throat and moistening lungs as always, really relieved his symptoms of coughing up blood, and made him feel much better.
However, Jiu Xiaohan has never realized that the warmth of his own palm is one of the key triggers for exacerbating the onset of poisonous cold symptoms in the opponent's body.
She squatted beside him in concern, maintaining a relatively consistent height from the ground with the other's vision.
Following the etiquette of practicing medicine differently between men and women, Jiu Xiaohan took out from his bosom the hand that Liang Ziyu had taken the initiative to hold up and then let go of, which had covered his eyes during the day. A white silk scarf was draped around his wrist.
After the thin white silk scarf, Jiu Xiaohan touched Liang Ziyu's wrist veins.
However, after calling for a while, she still looked puzzled and said to herself:
Why did this "wild wolf cub" suddenly cough up blood?
Even he himself couldn't figure out whether the inexplicable demonic poisonous energy in his body was born with him, or was a Gu planted by human beings, yet it happened so strangely?
Could it be that the speed of the two of us on the way down the mountain just now was too fast for him?
It was purely for the simple purpose of making Liang Ziyu's breathing easier; then, Jiu Xiaohan used the other hand that did not detect the pulse to gently comfort Liang Ziyu up and down because of the persistent cough. A slightly trembling back.
While comforting him, Jiu Xiaohan softly asked:
"Now, how do you feel?"
"Wolf Boy" originally wanted to answer the silly girl with a half-sentence and tell her not to worry; however, what he wanted to say was stuck in his throat, but he still couldn't say it.
At this moment, even the boy himself didn't realize that Jiu Xiaohan's seemingly simple rubbing action, even with a thick set of Taoist robes separated from his back, would still make his whole body feel extremely uncomfortable. discomfort.
A burst of Qi and blood flowed back, and the boy coughed violently again, and he couldn't hold his head anymore.
At the same time, this kind of extreme reaction was something he hadn't seen in the past ten years, and he had never had a violent reaction to any woman.
This is really the first time in his life.
In order to avoid getting too close to Jiu Xiaohan, he had to take two small steps forward on purpose by taking advantage of his coughing posture.
Just when Jiu Xiaohan was about to move forward with him, Liang Ziyu turned his back to her and said to her intermittently:
"Little...Miss Xiaohan!"
"Well! Ziyu, don't worry, speak slowly!"
"Let...let...let me relax for a while, is that okay?"
"Uh, okay!"
Jiu Xiaohan responded, and promptly retracted the raised foot that was about to land, and did not move closer to Liangziyu.
In fact, if he hadn't taken into account Liang Ziyu's new and old injuries, as well as the cold poison hysteria, maybe Jiu Xiaohan would have arrived at the gate of Yi'an County long ago.
With her lightness of walking at night, she walked here alone from the broken Guanyin Temple on the mountainside, even if the mountain paths are rough and there are thick snow deposits, she may not need a stick or two of incense Kung Fu.
Previously, the reason why she wholeheartedly invited to walk with this "wild wolf cub":
First, Jiu Xiaohan has indeed become a habit of kindness and compassion, and she really pities this young man from the bottom of her heart; not only gave him a new name, but also promised to help him heal his illness.
Second, she mainly feels that sincerity must come first in interpersonal communication, but there must also be exchanges.Seeing that young man wandering around in the wilderness, he must be very familiar with the mountains and the surrounding land. If he takes a companion on the road, they can help each other, and she can save a lot of detours. How much?
However, now seeing the relapse of the other party's old illness, the pained appearance and his weak back coughing and trembling, Jiu Xiaohan inevitably blamed himself in his heart, saying in his heart:
"It seems that I can't let him accompany me to toss any more. When I arrive in Yi'an County, I must first find a good place that can temporarily accommodate Ziyu and facilitate his cultivation."
After waiting for a while, the coughing symptoms of the boy who deliberately kept a "safe physical distance" from Jiu Xiaohan behind him has eased.
Looking down at the bloody phlegm pools on the snowy ground in front of him, the boy didn't subconsciously wipe the corners of his mouth with his sleeves.
After all, what he was wearing was a new Taoist robe that Jiu Xiaohan lent him.
So, the young man picked up a little white and clean snow slag from the snow beside him and put it in his palm, thinking that he would wait for it to melt into ice water before rinsing his mouth to dilute the bloody smell in his mouth and bitterness.
However, his hands were icy cold, and the snow was in his hands, and after waiting for a long time, less than half of it melted.He didn't want to wait any longer, so he simply put the ice and snow into his mouth.
Immediately, trembling from the roots of his teeth, the cold went to his heart.The joints of his ten fingers, the tip of his nose, and the pinnae of his ears were extremely red, but it seemed as if his whole body was about to be frozen.
Then, I saw that he stretched out his hand tremblingly, and wiped vigorously the left and right corners of his mouth that were still stained with blood.
Because, he knew that the darker the sky was, the better and more transparent Jiu Xiaohan's eyesight would be.He naturally didn't want Jiu Xiaohan to worry too much about himself.
Afterwards, he turned around weakly, forced a smile on her face, his lips that were slightly purple from the cold opened, and his voice was very low, but it could be seen that he had put a lot of effort into her spoke, said:
"Sister Xiaohan, I...I'm much better! Nothing's wrong. Let's keep going! Look, we've passed the snowy field ahead and we're at the gate of the city!"
It has to be said that this young man's acting skills are also innate. On the surface, he really looks like a good and harmless "beautiful man", but inside he is really dark-bellied.
In fact, he had planned this way a long time ago, trying his best to reach the outside of Luohe City smoothly before the end of the Xu hour.
In this way, Jiu Xiaohan can take advantage of the fact that Jiu Xiaohan doesn't have any extra time and opportunities, and then turn around and go to that Yi'an County.
The left and right were just looking for medical advice, except for the legendary Ninth Hall Master who was too "magic", the two of them could go to Luohe City to find other famous doctors and old pharmacies with a long history.
What's more, the teenager has always believed that:
As long as they get along long enough, that silly little female cultivator will definitely show her feet.
Seeing Liang Ziyu turned around, as if he was just recovering from a serious illness, but forced to smile, Jiu Xiaohan felt sorry for him again.
She really regards this "wild mountain black wolf cub" as her own younger brother, and she treats it as normal, even far better than her own younger brother!
From Jiu Xiaohan's point of view, the more Liang Ziyu said that he was "all right" in this situation, the more likely his physical condition would become more serious instead.
But, as everyone knows, this time, it's really just Jiu Xiaohan thinking too much again.
Unable to conceal her full of concern at all, Jiu Xiaohan once again took the initiative to walk towards Liang Ziyu who had already turned to face her. At the same time, she stretched out her hand and grabbed the other's arm, fearing that he would not stand still and his head would fall. fell in the snow.
After all, she couldn't imagine running around through the snowy forest with him in a coma on her back.
However, at this time, Jiu Xiaohan didn't know that if she pulled off the Taoist robe on the opponent's body now, and went inside and out to check the opponent's injuries, she would be amazed and surprised from ear to ear.
In fact, it was precisely because of their walking late at night for more than an hour that the blood in the young man's body flowed normally, thus helping him to transform the qi and blood that blocked the key points into poisonous phlegm, Coughed it all up.
Therefore, the wounds on his body quickly healed themselves, especially the two serious injuries on the heart and liver that healed very well, and there was basically no major obstacle affecting their progress.
However, in order not to be touched by Jiu Xiaohan, just when she took the boy's arm, the boy even started to trot quickly.
Seeing this, Jiu Xiaohan was indeed a little surprised.When she was beaming with joy, unexpectedly, she still naturally ignored Liang Ziyu's intentional distance from her approaching her.
From this point of view, this girl is really too naive, especially in the process of dating between men and women, she is too nervous.
There was nothing she could do about it, after all, she had spent 20 years with those senior brothers, juniors, masters, and his disciples and grandchildren in the Pure Heart Conception.
▽▽▽▽
After running about ten or twenty steps away, the boy turned his head and waved his arms vigorously towards Jiu Xiaohan who was some distance away from him.
It seemed that he wanted to comfort her loudly and said:
Look, Miss Xiaohan!As I said just now, I'm already much better, and the injuries on my body are nothing serious!Hurry up and follow me!
It's just that in the snowy forest with deep night and thick moon, ice is not suitable for communicating with each other too loudly, so he only waved at her without speaking.
Looking at Liang Ziyu's lively figure not far away, Jiu Xiaohan, who was originally worried and worried, lost half of the anxiety and worry in his heart.
Her whole body, it seemed, was indeed relieved and relaxed.
Just as the two of them were rushing towards the south gate of "Yi'an County" that Jiu Xiaohan thought, they suddenly heard a few sounds that seemed to come from a forest not far away on the other side. scream.
After a while, two men dressed in armor and dressed like city guards were covered in blood, supporting each other, and staggered out of the woods in embarrassment.
It looked as if they were being chased by some terrible beast and had just narrowly escaped death.
Because the sky was very dark, and the "wolf boy" was far away from the two of them, compared to Jiu Xiaohan, he couldn't clearly see the clothes and appearance of the two of them.
However, Jiu Xiaohan saw it clearly.
Moreover, when she looked at them for the first time, she had already recognized that the two were not real city guards, but her third senior brother Wu Si and fifth senior brother Wu Yu.
It's just that, not only did the two of them change the Taoist robes that they usually wear in the Pure Heart Temple, but they also used the "Yi Yan Shu" that Shiqi Wuyan taught them to use in emergencies.
However, it is obvious that because the third senior brother Wu Si suffered a serious injury, the skills that could control the "Yi Yan Shu" are gradually failing, and his original appearance has begun to slowly recover.
One of the luckiest of all misfortunes is that the many dirty bloodstains on his face can basically help him conceal the slight changes on his face.
Although the "wolf boy" was still some distance away from them, he had already noticed that the two wounded men who had just come out of the woods looked very miserable.
But just because the sky is too dark, it is impossible for him to have the ability of night vision with blue pupils like Jiu Xiaohan. some gradients.
It's too late to say.
Just when Jiu Xiaohan was about to go up to check the injuries of her third and fifth senior brothers, she suddenly realized that she was carrying her master and all her senior brothers behind her back, breaking through the Tao in the Pure Heart Conception that had already closed herself tightly. After 20 years of enchantment, I came down from the mountain.
Therefore, with one foot in front and the other behind, she froze in place as if frozen in ice and snow.
It's not right to go forward to find the initiative of the two of them and help them heal their injuries; but if you don't go forward, just watch them both seriously injured and waiting to die, it must be even more wrong!
In Jiu Xiaohan's heart, there are already turmoil and hesitation;
However, under the gaze of Liang Ziyu in the distance, she had to still try her best to show a calm state without changing her expression...
