Xianyun Inn arrived soon. Xu Huaigu took Pingcui upstairs and gently knocked on the door of the room. It was Bai Xiaoyu who opened the door.
Pingcui's eyes widened and she said in surprise: "Isn't this the sister who gave me the clothes? Why are you here too? Do you also know Brother Xu?"
Bai Xiaoyu bent down, touched Pingcui's little head, and said with a smile: "Yes, not only do we know him, but we are also very good friends with him."
Xu Huaigu poked his head and looked into the room, only to see that Yu Qin had woken up and was sitting on the bed, drinking a small bowl of white porridge.
She scooped up a small spoonful of white porridge, put it to her lips and gently blew on it to cool it, then put it into her mouth. Her movements were elegant and calm, just like the quiet girl in Xu Huaigu's memory.
Bai Xiaoyu knew that Xu Huaigu had something to say to Yu Qin, so he said, "You guys stay for a while, I will take Pingcui out for a walk."
She held Pingcui's hand and walked out of the room and said, "Sister, I'll take you out to eat delicious food again, okay?"
Pingcui said happily: "I want candied haws!"
Bai Xiaoyu smiled and agreed, and the footsteps of the two of them walked farther and farther away, leaving only Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin in the room.
Xu Huaigu walked up to Yu Qin, took the porridge bowl from her hand, and said, "Let me feed you this time."
Yu Qin did not refuse, she opened her red lips lightly, and Xu Huaigu put a spoonful of the still steaming porridge into her mouth.
Yu Qin asked him: "Do you know the woman in white just now?"
"I know her. Her name is Bai Xiaoyu. I knew her before we went to Huangqi Mountain. I met her again by chance in Xingqing this time. If it weren't for her help, I wouldn't have been able to get the antidote to save you."
Yu Qin asked doubtfully: "Why did I faint as soon as I touched those flowers in the yard?"
"That's the red Hibiscus flower. It's poisonous. You've been very comatose these days and almost died."
Yu Qin took another sip of porridge, looked at Xu Huaigu's haggard appearance, and said with disappointment, "I'm sorry, I'm the one dragging you down."
Xu Huaigu said softly: "What's the matter? You saved me in the first place, and you didn't see me being so polite to you, so you can just relax and recover. Besides, I promised to protect you in front of your father. If If I can’t even do this now, what can I explain to him?”
"I heard Bai Xiaoyu say before, are you going to continue going north again?"
Xu Huaigu nodded and said: "Yes, I have to go all the way north to Fuyao Sect. It will probably take several years. But don't worry, I have already arranged for you in Xingqing. You will live in Princess Cangyang Mansion by then. Come here, I have friendship with her, and she will treat you well."
Yu Qin was in a low mood: "Can't you stay? It's too dangerous to go north. How about we stay in Xingqing?"
Xu Huaigu shook his head and said, "I can't stay in one place for a long time. I can't stay."
Yu Qin sighed.
She knew that Xu Huaigu had a world in his heart, he longed for the distance, and it was impossible to keep him. But her only support is Xu Huaigu. If she really lives in the Cangyang Princess Mansion as he said, then no matter how good the life is for her, it will be just a prison and no fun. She only hopes to stay with Xu Huaigu. .
Yu Qin begged, "Can you take me with you to the north? I will take care of myself and won't cause you any trouble. You just need to take me with you."
Xu Huaigu said firmly: "No, the road going north is too dangerous. I may not even be able to save my own life, let alone you? If you have any shortcomings, I will not forgive myself."
Yu Qin's eyes filled with tears: "But do you know? If you leave me here alone, it will be even more torture. I want to be with you, and I don't want to lose you again like I lost my father. So no matter No matter how many dangers there are, whether they are life or death, no matter what, we face them together, okay?"
Xu Huaigu was moved by what she said, but his reason told him that he must not do this.
In the fantasy, he saw Yu Qin committing suicide for himself. He could never forget the heartbreaking pain at that time. He absolutely didn't want to see anything happen to Yu Qin, but his compassion wanted Yu Qin to go with him.
The road to Jianghu is so dangerous, but if Yu Qin is by his side, he will become a lot more gentle.
Xu Huaigu was in a dilemma. After struggling for a long time, he said, "Don't think so much. Take good care of your health first. We will still have time to consider these things in the future."
Yu Qin saw that Xu Huaigu was a little shaken, so he stopped talking and swallowed the porridge he sent one bite at a time.
...
At night, the room in Xianyun Inn was brightly lit, and laughter kept coming.
Yu Qin's awakening was naturally a great joy. Both Huang Shan and Bai Xiaoyu came to congratulate Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin. As for the little guy in Pingcui, he was hiding in the corner with a big bag of candied haws, his mouth full of candies. Like a little cat.
After the four of them introduced each other, they started chatting thoroughly.
Huang Shan kept talking about his previous experiences in the mountains and fields, and Xu Huaigu teased him from time to time. Yu Qin was also happy to hear it. Time passed quickly, and it was late at night before he knew it.
Huang Shanzheng told the story to a tense point: "But I saw that ghost wearing black tattered clothes slaughtering people in the town. As soon as it went into a house, it was like entering a deserted land. No one could stop it, and it was A whole family was massacred. It is now standing in front of a woman in white clothes, and it is ready to kill the woman. By the way, the ghost is also a ruthless ghost. The woman has peach cheeks, almond-shaped eyes, and a good figure. She is a very graceful woman. At this time, she shrinks I was shivering in the corner, but the ghost didn't even intend to hold back. Fortunately, at this moment, I burst open the door, rushed in, took out the soul-calling banner passed to me by my master, and was about to refine it. The ghost was panicking and wanted to run away, but unfortunately, how could he escape? He had to leave it to me. When the woman saw that I saved him, she wanted to repay him with her own body, but I naturally disdained it. That woman It was only because she saw that I was handsome that she said she would repay her with her body. If I were not so handsome, she would probably say that she would work for me in the next life. So I said: 'Girl, I am a chivalrous person when I save people. I am not coveting your beauty, so why bother...'"
"Stop, stop," Bai Xiaoyu, who had been silent until now, finally spoke impatiently, "Can your story be any more false? I feel like goosebumps are rising all over my body."
Huang Shan was dissatisfied: "How can you say it's false? I haven't finished telling the story yet, please listen to me slowly. At that time, I said, 'Girl, I'm not coveting your beauty, why bother... ..'"
Bai Xiaoyu glared at him and turned her head to the side angrily. Xu Huaigu looked up to the sky and let out a long yawn, looking at Ping Cui and Yu Qin boredly.
Huang Shan has been telling this story for nearly two hours, and the content is extremely boring and vulgar. Xu Huaigu feels that he is really thick-skinned if he can tell such a story. Xu Huaigu would definitely not be able to do it.
But Pingcui listened with great interest. She was holding a candied haws in her mouth while listening to Huang Shan's story, and her mouth was almost drooling on her clothes. Yu Qin listened quietly to Huang Shan's story, neither interested nor disgusted.
Xu Huaigu played with the hilt of the sword and looked at the small candle on the table.
The candle flame kept dancing, and the flames emitted several circles of light, which shone on Yu Qin's face, which was very similar to the scene when the two met.
"Speaking of which, a red light suddenly appeared on the other side for no reason, and the seawater rushed around like crazy. The bottomless sea was actually split in half by this sword energy..."
Huang Shan was still telling cliche stories, but Xu Huaigu suddenly noticed from the corner of his eyes that Bai Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly froze, and then became extremely serious, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn.
Huang Shan also noticed something was wrong, so he quickly stopped talking and looked at Bai Xiaoyu doubtfully.
Bai Xiaoyu whispered: "My master is here."
Xu Huaigu turned around and saw that a figure in black appeared in the middle of the room.
The candle flame became flickering.
The woman in black spoke with a very unhappy tone: "Have you had enough fun running to Wangchuan this time? You almost got yourself into trouble, so hurry up and come back to Middle-earth, or I'll lock you up in the mountains from now on." Never think about it again!"
Bai Xiaoyu knew that Master's tone was usually calm, but this time he spoke so excitedly that he was really angry. There was no room for maneuver.
She was very frustrated and said angrily: "Yes, Master."
The aura and cultivation of the woman in black were so powerful that for a moment everyone in the room was silent and did not dare to speak.
The woman in black walked towards Huang Shan first.
Huang Shan raised his head and looked into the woman's empty eyes, and instantly lost consciousness. He fell into that look, unable to resist due to his cultivation.
The woman in black lifted Huang Shan up like a dead object and said coldly: "Fortunately you made the right choice, otherwise you wouldn't have imagined how miserable your death would be."
This is about the choice Huang Shan made on the stone bridge to save Bai Xiaoyu.
She turned around and looked at Xu Huaigu. Xu Huaigu quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at her.
The woman in black looked at Xu Huaigu for a while, then said in slight surprise: "It's interesting. I didn't expect to meet a random person who has a relationship with Mo Long."
Then she looked at everyone in the room, but no one said anything.
The woman in black is Bai Xiaoyu's master. She is called Black Eyes in the spiritual world. She was born with both eyes filled with nothingness. It is said that her left eye can see the past and her right eye can see the future.
After Heitong did all this, she disappeared in an instant, as mysteriously as she appeared, but Bai Xiaoyu also disappeared.
Huang Shan felt relieved and knelt on the ground, gasping for air.
The moment he stared into Heitong's eyes, he felt like he was about to suffocate. He saw her inner lake in her black-pupiled eyes, which was an endless void, so vast and wide that it could accommodate stars.
Starting from the Third Realm monk, a heart lake will be born, and at that time, the level of cultivation can also be roughly glimpsed through the size of the heart lake. Huang Shan's inner lake is only the size of a pond, not a real lake. But the inner lake of the woman in black was an endless void.
How profound a cultivation level is this?
Eight realms?
No, no, definitely more than that, there are at least nine realms, and even ten realms are not a bad idea. Those realms were realms that Huang Shan had never been exposed to before, and he couldn't explain why.
Although he had guessed that Bai Xiaoyu's master was very high, he never imagined that it would be so high.
Xu Huaigu was a little disappointed. Bai Xiaoyu left just like that, without even having time to say goodbye.
But actually after thinking about it, I didn’t say anything else, so the next time we meet should not be far away, right?
Xu Huaigu thought this way, opened the window, and looked at the Milky Way moonlight outside the window.
Under the night, a silvery moonlight hangs from the nine heavens, and as soon as it reaches the human world, it turns into the sadness of separation.
