One thought of Acacia, one thought of perseverance

Chapter 54

It was already evening when Rong Chenzi woke up, and the winter twilight enveloped the earth early.He opened his eyes, and the mussel was still sound asleep on the couch.She unconsciously covered her chest with her hands, and frowned, as if she could still feel the piercing pain in her dream.Rong Chenzi was afraid that her hand would press on her heart, so he gently put that little hand on her side. Seeing that her lips were dry, he melted a cloudless talisman, and the talisman disappeared immediately after entering the water. The water quality is clearer.Rong Chenzi took a small wooden spoon and scooped up some talisman water to moisten her lips.

After a while, Ye Tian came in, and she and Rong Chenzi were not very polite: "Senior brother, I will guard her, you can eat first."

Rong Chenzi nodded, and then instructed: "If she is haunted again or can't sleep well, first calm down her soul and feed her with the clear and turbid talisman water in the cup."

Ye Tiandian nodded and took the porcelain cup. Because of the nasty three-eyed snake, several people have been too distressed recently, and Rong Chenzi was even thinner. Her voice was full of distress: "Senior brother, why don't you excuse me?" It's a matter of... delay for a few days? You're so skinny..."

Rong Chenzi shook his head: "We have to act before the underworld finds out. She is a thousand-year-old monster, and the underworld will have someone to seduce her soul. Although Lingxia Mountain has a large protective formation, it may not be able to stop it for long."

Even though she knew it was useless, Ye Tian inevitably persuaded again: "But borrowing life is against the heavens. You always said that you have already cut off all ties with her, so why do you do this taboo thing for her?"

Rong Chenzi raised his hand to stop her from continuing, and sighed softly: "Although she has many faults, she is in this situation because she came here to get rid of snakes and defend the way. Even if there is no friendship, how can we see death without saving ?”

Ye Tian also has her own considerations: "Forget it, I'm just saying that internal cultivation is rare now, if Senior Brother keeps her for the sake of dealing with Ming Snake in the future, I won't say much. Just I'm afraid that Senior Brother, you... have no more love."

Rong Chenzi was slightly startled, and then he said calmly: "It's absurd and wrong for a while, and if you can return to my way with the guidance of the gods, how can you fall into the world of mortals again?"

Ye Tian finally showed her face: "I'm here, you go eat first."

Rong Chenzi went to the dining hall, it's been a long time since he went out this time, and all the disciples don't know what's going on with their studies.He and Qingxuan and Qingsu are separated from the temple, and Qingzhen takes care of everything in the temple, at this time he is standing beside Rong Chenzi, all the little Taoist priests are afraid that the master will lose his temper, so they all eat quietly.

Rong Chenzi tapped the dishes with his chopsticks: "Sit down."

Qingzhen hurriedly sat down at the bottom, not daring to take a breath.Rong Chenzi was particular about eating without talking, and he only ate with his head down. Qingzhen didn't dare to disobey his teacher's order, so she ate a few mouthfuls nervously.After the meal, Qingxuan gathered all the Taoists in the Patriarch Hall, and Rong Chenzi began to inquire about the affairs of the temple.Qingzhen stood neatly, but whenever Rong Chenzi asked him, he carefully answered all the questions.

Rong Chenzi then compared the Taoist scriptures and methods.

After this delay, an hour passed, and the mussel woke up.Opening her eyes, she found that Ye Tian was the only one guarding the couch. Ye Tian was still flipping through "Borrowing Fate", and when she woke up, she acted as if she hadn't seen it, and snorted coldly.He Mu touched her stomach, she was very hungry, but now she hadn't eaten for a day and a night.Listening to her stomach rumbling, Ye Tian gloated: "After filling my heart, I can only eat liquid food for ten days. And I can only eat three percent full."

"Ah?" A look of grief appeared on He Mum's face, "Woooooooooooooo...I want to eat roast duck, I want to eat leg of lamb..."

The sound of her wailing echoed throughout the secret room, and Ye Tian could hear her whole body in comfort: "You deserve it!"

Rong Chenzi came in with half a bowl of porridge, and heard He Mu crying very sadly.He frowned tightly: "What happened?"

Ye Tian snorted coldly and didn't answer, He Mu cried even more sadly when he saw the half bowl of porridge in his hand.

Rong Chenzi sat down by the couch, spooned porridge and fed her: "Don't cry, I'll add more sugar." The mussel's tears kept flowing, and he cried for a long time before saying: "I want to eat salty food!"

Rong Chenzi was silent for a moment, and finally ordered Qingxuan outside: "Give another half bowl of clear porridge, add some salt."

"Woo..." He Mu cried heartbroken.Ye Tian was furious, and opened her mouth to curse: "I just want you to drink some porridge, what's the matter?!"

He Mu didn't blame her: "If you don't eat porridge, you won't eat porridge!! I want to eat lotus root powder balls, sea cucumbers with green onions, and turtledove and mushroom soup, blah blah..."

Rong Chenzi couldn't help sighing. After a long time, he cut his wrist and dripped a few drops of blood into the porridge. His blood had no bloody smell at all. The bright color faded in the porridge, and the color of half a bowl of porridge became Crystal clear peach powder.Ye Tian hurriedly cast a hemostatic spell to stop his bleeding: "Brother!"

Rong Chenzi shook his head to signal her to stop talking, leaned over and put the porridge in front of the mussel, and fed her with a spoonful.He Mug glanced at him, obediently opened her pink and tender lips, and drank one mouthful at a time.The aroma was so strong, she looked at Rong Chenzi through the curling heat, and suddenly grinned.That smile was as bright as the sun rising from the morning glow, burning like a hibiscus rising from the blue waves, Rong Chenzi's eyes were glued.

Ye Tian was furious, and snorted coldly: "What are you talking about, all men in the world have the same virtue!"

She slammed the door and left, Rong Chenzi blushed, remained silent for a while, and continued to feed the mussels porridge.He Mu is a thick-skinned person who doesn't take it seriously at all. While drinking the porridge, he teases Chen Zi with his little feet.Rong Chenzi stretched out his hand to pat her, and unexpectedly touched that delicate and warm slender foot, his heartbeat accelerated suddenly.He simply ignored her, and even fed half a bowl of porridge into her stomach.

And in the afternoon, Rong Chenzi and Ye Tian had an argument over who to borrow their orders from.Borrowing life is against the laws of nature, a candle can only be lit from one end, and letting life make it burn at both ends.Although it was able to coexist, it undoubtedly increased the loss.Naturally, Rong Chenzi wanted to borrow his life, so how could Ye Tian agree.The two couldn't stop arguing, and Ye Tian burst into tears.After listening for a long time, He Mu finally couldn't help but suggest: "Uh, do I have to borrow yours?" Both Rong Chenzi and Ye Tianju looked over, she rolled her eyes, although this guy is very [-], but she can do arithmetic , "Didn't the national teacher give out a few three-eyed snakes? Can't you grab one to lend me your life? The three-eyed snake has the blood of an ancient beast, and one can live for a long, long, long time. Even if it is half, it is still the same. You can live for a long time. The two of you add up to less than a hundred..."

Rong Chenzi and Ye Tian looked at each other, and walked away without saying a word.After walking for a long time, Ye Tian suddenly couldn't help laughing, shaking her head back and forth.The corners of Rong Chenzi's lips curled slightly, and he also showed a smile.

The three-eyed snake is born of natural disasters, and its lifespan is not included in the life and death book.With his life, he doesn't even have to go against the way of heaven.It's like breaking the law by robbing other people's things, and taking things that have no owner and no one cares.

Rong Chenzi sent Qing Su to find Zhuang Shaoqin to fetch a three-eyed snake that had just hatched, and he needed to rest for another night in order to recharge his energy and borrow his life for the mussel.His living room is only separated from the mussel by a wall, and he has something on his mind, saying it is to nourish his energy, but how can he sleep peacefully?But in two minutes, I will go to the secret room to see the mussels.The mussels were getting impatient with him: "Zhiguan, don't run around, can't you just sleep here?"

Rong Chenzi hesitated, He Mu raised his hand and swore: "If I move around, let me only have porridge to drink from now on!"

The oath was so heavy that Rong Chenzi just got his gums on, he folded his clothes and lay down next to the mussel, the mussel closed his eyes, and he slept very peacefully and soundly.When Rong Chenzi saw that she was really sleeping, he couldn't help but feel relieved, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, the first snow of winter began to fall outside.Qingxuan sent over a thick quilt, and saw that Rong Chenzi was lying on the couch neatly, without any trace of sleeping.When he entered the secret room, he saw Rong Chenzi lying half shoulder to shoulder with He Mu, He Mu's pink face was pillowed on Rong Chen Zi's broad shoulders, and black hair was scattered on his chest, like tangled tenderness .He lightly hugged the quilt and went out of the secret room again, and carried him back the same way—Master is warm and fragrant, nephrite, and sleeps with beauty, so why would he need a quilt...

When the sky was getting brighter, Ye Tian came over with mussel porridge. The light in the secret room was dim, reflecting the two people sleeping with their necks crossed on the gum bed. She suddenly remembered that many years ago, after the death of her master, she cried every night, Rong Chen My son has been accompanied by such a quiet and warm company.However, many years later, the old people still remember the past, and the past has disappeared.
