Xie Huaizhi glanced at Lou Jinhuan on the side, and was about to speak when Lou Jinhuan suddenly turned his head and said, "I'll hold him up, you watch the road."
Cong Xin always did what her senior sister said. Without thinking much, she gave up her seat to Lou Jinhuan and turned to the other side.
Lou Jinhuan glanced at Xie Huaizhi and held his arm directly without saying anything.
Xie Huaizhi smiled shyly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Lou Jinhuan's face was expressionless, "You don't have to call me venerable, just call me by my name."
"Okay, have fun." Xie Huaizhi climbed up the pole quickly.
Cong Xin also said: "You can also call me by my name. My name is Cong Xin."
"Okay, Cong Xin."
Xie Huaizhi followed the good deeds and Cong Xin was bored, so he talked to him.
"Jing Huai, Huai... is this word so common?"
"Huh?" Xie Huaizhi turned to look at her, "Do you know anyone with the same name?"
Cong Xin: "Uh..." She glanced at Lou Jinhuan quickly, then whispered in Xie Huaizhi's ear: "It's true, but you'd better not mention it."
Xie Huaizhi followed her example and asked in a low voice: "Why?"
"That man was rescued by senior sister, but he left without saying goodbye after recovering from his injuries. Senior sister was very angry. Every time I mentioned that man, senior sister's face was not very good, so I suspect that senior sister's attitude toward you tonight was also because of the thought of her. That person."
"I see." Xie Huaizhi looked quietly at Lou Jinhuan beside him. It was impossible for her not to hear him at such a close distance, but she didn't deny it. Does that mean that she was really angry and didn't want to mention him?
Xie Huaizhi's mood was a little complicated.
He was... that's all, it's meaningless to say that now.
It was a fact that he said goodbye without saying goodbye, and he couldn't argue with it.
None of the three of them spoke again for the rest of the journey, and silence spread. Cong Xin looked at Lou Jinhuan and Xie Huaizhi for a while, feeling so suffocated that she died.
But Xie Huaizhi was obviously absent-minded, and it was hard for her to keep talking to him.
Fortunately, the town was very close, and the three of them saw the city gate not long after walking.
It was late at night and the city gates were closed. The patrolling soldiers walked back and forth with vigilant looks. When they saw the three of them, they immediately became alert and said, "Who are you three? Where do you come from? The city gates are not opened at night. Come back tomorrow." .”
Cong Xin took a step forward and took out the token from his arms to show them, "We are disciples of the Yuhui Sect. We came down the mountain to deal with some matters. Please make it convenient for us to pass by here."
When the officers and soldiers guarding the gate heard this, they quickly came over to look at the token.
The world of cultivating immortals and the human race are not completely separated. After all, they often have to go to the human world to select suitable seedlings. Therefore, all countries in the human world will give some special preferential treatment to the cultivators of immortals, and the rulers will also have people draw the tokens of each sect. appearance, so as not to collide with the immortal master.
The officers and soldiers were surprised and beaming with joy after reading this, "It turns out to be a fairy from the Jade Hui Sect. It's the young people who are ignorant and offended. Please forgive me."
"It's okay, could you please open the door for us."
"Open, open it now, Immortal Master, please come in." The leading officer and soldier smiled, turned around and shouted: "Open the city gate!"
Lou Jinhuan nodded: "Thank you very much."
The officers and soldiers were flattered and waved their hands repeatedly, "You're welcome, you're welcome, Immortal Master, go slowly."
Lou Jinhuan took Cong Xin and Xie Huaizhi into the city. As they walked, they looked around. There happened to be an inn not far ahead. It looked quite big. She went up and knocked on the door. The waiter came out sleepily and was about to get angry. Lou Jinhuan and Cong Xin had extraordinary magnanimity and hurriedly restrained their tempers, "Three of you, this is——"
"We're staying in the hotel. Do we have a room?" Cong Xin looked inside and saw that it was quite clean.
The waiter nodded: "Yes, how many rooms do you three want?"
Xie Huaizhi's heart moved and he leaned against Lou Jinhuan as if he couldn't stand still.
Waiter: "...Two rooms?"
Lou Jinhuan said coldly: "Three rooms, let's buy him a better robe."
After saying that, she took out two spiritual stones from the storage ring and handed them to the waiter.
Although there is no trading of spiritual stones in the human world, spiritual stones can be exchanged for money in big cities, and there are people who specialize in collecting this.
When the waiter saw that the spirit stone was of excellent quality, he immediately smiled and said, "You won't need so much."
"Keep the rest for yourself. I'm sorry for waking you up in the middle of the night."
"Miss, you're too polite, come on, please come inside -"
The three upper rooms were next to each other. Cong Xin entered the room first. Lou Jinhuan helped Xie Huaizhi to his door. He was silent for a moment and asked, "Can you do it yourself?"
Xie Huaizhi wanted to say no, but remembered Cong Xin's words and swallowed it back.
He stood up straight and smiled weakly at Lou Jinhuan, "I'm fine, just the wound still hurts a little. There's nothing else, don't worry."
Lou Jinhuan nodded: "Yes."
Then he opened his door and went in without giving him a single glance.
Xie Huaizhi: "..."
After returning to his room and sitting down, Xie Huaizhi gave a wry smile, finally knowing what it meant to be deprived of one's own fault.
How cool you were when you left, how embarrassed you were when you looked back.
He was lying on the bed, and the wound on his back was pressed, which made him groan in pain. In order to "rely on" others, he also deliberately performed a bitter trick. As a result, it was more painful now, but the effect was not achieved.
Xie Huaizhi opened his eyes and looked into the darkness, feeling confused.
He originally thought that he would be able to return to normal and let go of Lou Jinhuan once again. However, after seeing him again after half a year, not only did he not calm down as he thought, but he became more and more agitated.
I want to be close to her, I want to talk to her, I want her to look at me.
He touched his forehead suspiciously. No fever? Why do you think about endless things?
This indescribable emotion controlled him, keeping him awake all night, and he was even more haggard when he went out the next day.
The waiter bought the best ready-made clothes, light blue, and Xie Huaizhi looked tall and elegant in the lining.
When Cong Xin saw it, she clicked her tongue and said, "It was too dark last night, so I couldn't see clearly. Today, when I saw you, I realized that you are very handsome, Fellow Daoist Jing."
"But -" She walked around to look at Xie Huaizhi's face, frowned and asked, "Why do you have dark circles under your eyes? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Lou Jinhuan happened to come out and glanced at Xie Huaizhi when he heard this.
Xie Huaizhi touched his face, smiled and said, "I didn't sleep well. The wound was hot and itchy last night."
"This is normal. It is detoxifying your wound. The itchiness is because the wound has grown new flesh. Don't worry, it will probably be completely healed tonight."
Cong Xin patted his shoulder comfortingly.
"That's it." Xie Huaizhi smiled and said, "This medicine is really magical."
"Stop chatting, eat, and continue on your way after eating."
Lou Jinhuan walked past them, and Xie Huaizhi immediately stood up straight, "Okay."
…
The three of them drove for another half day and finally arrived at the Bishui Village.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Cong Xin was stunned, "Isn't it called Bishui Village? Why is there such a wide river at the entrance of the village?"
