When Qiong Yi turned back from the boundless nothingness, her vision was blurry. Because she hadn't eaten for too long, her body was weak and her breath was weak.
The true energy began to gather from the tendons and veins of the limbs to the Dantian, and the strands formed into a ball. Compared with half a month ago, the true energy overflowed and improved greatly. For her, there is abundant spiritual energy on Baishi Cliff, and all she needs to improve her cultivation is concentration and concentration. Other than that, the most important thing is time.
She was much closer to the door where she externalized her true energy, but the distance between her was still slowly approaching, out of reach.
The scene in front of me gradually became clearer. The rough stone wall reflected the sunlight reflected by the snow into the cave, which was a little bright. The talisman paper affixed to it was already drooping. The wind-blocking spell barrier separated the outside world from the outside by a foot. A thick pile of snow sealed the entrance of the cave, and Qiong also thought: If I close the spell, will the snow flood into the cave all of a sudden?
While adjusting her breathing, her body gradually became more active. She stood up and walked off the stone bed. She felt that her steps seemed lighter than before. Of course, it might also be because she had lost weight due to being inactive for too long.
Qiong also took off the barrier paper, and the barrier immediately disappeared. The cold wind blew inward. The snow at the entrance of the cave was frozen solid and did not collapse. It looked like a large ice cream that had been neatly cut. The hole The sun was shining outside, a rare sunny day in winter, but instead of being warm, the temperature was even colder.
When you walk out of the cave, you will see a vast expanse of white, with trees and silver flowers, milky clouds and mist filling the top of the mountain, like curling veils, and the scenery of the cliffs, just like a fairyland on earth. Qiong Yi went down the mountain with ease, admiring the scenery along the way. He didn't care that his cheeks were stung by the wind, and he was in a good mood.
On the way, I met many fellow apprentices. When they saw her, they were surprised at first, and then asked with a smile: "Junior sister Xiaowu is out of seclusion?"
"How is the progress? Are there any signs of breakthrough?"
Qiong Yi shook his head honestly: "I don't feel like I've broken through the realm at all. I'm afraid I'll be stuck in the Qi Condensation level for a long time."
The brothers replied sympathetically: "It's okay, the time for breakthrough has not yet come, and you can't force it. If you can break through in seclusion, then aren't we, who have practiced Kung Fu seven or eight years more than you, a total joke? "
Another person said: "Senior sister, it's just the right time for you to leave seclusion. Today is the Lantern Festival. In two days' time, the convoy for the class will leave for Yize again."
Qiong Yi slapped her head: "Then I'm really lucky!" She added: "I've been meditating for too long and I'm a little tired. I won't talk anymore and I need to take a good rest."
"Go, go!" The senior brothers waved their hands, and she also waved and jumped away.
Then, she first went to her master to report her practice results, and got a few words of advice from Lu Bin, telling her to concentrate and be patient, both of which are indispensable. Then she packed her clothes and went to the bathhouse to take a hot bath, and finally went to the miscellaneous area. The hospital is looking for Zhu Yunluo. At this time, it happened to be sandwiched between breakfast and lunch. The food in the kitchen had been cleared up early, and even the stove under the pot was turned off. Qiong Yi entered the kitchen hungry and was surrounded by a room full of mothers-in-law and aunts. stand up.
"A Luo, Xiao Wu Niang is here to see you!"
"A Luo is going out of the house, and will be back later!"
"Oh, I haven't seen this little girl for a long time. She looks more and more juicy! Why aren't you here to celebrate the Chinese New Year? Fortunately, I remembered that you like to eat my fried meatballs, so I left a lot of them for you!"
Qiong Yi chuckled: "Auntie, I'm here to see Ah Luo, but is there anything to eat here? I just came down the mountain and I'm hungry."
"Yes! Auntie will start cooking steamed buns for you right now! The new ones were made yesterday, big meat buns!"
"There are still Yuanxiao, but we'll do it at noon. Xiaowu, stay here for lunch!"
Qiong Yi called her grandma and aunty a few more times, calling everyone in the room, and agreed: "Okay, okay!" After saying that, she started to help them, and the people laughed and said: "This little girl has learned the lesson. Immortal magic has not forgotten us old ladies."
"You are joking, how could I forget? I have a good memory. I will remember it for a lifetime."
"The little mouth is quite neat!"
"If you learn immortality and worship your master, will you become immortal in the future?"
"That's not possible, but it's okay to do a trick and set off fireworks for everyone!"
The atmosphere in the room was cheerful and full of laughter.
Qiong Yi squatted by the door holding a steaming bun, and saw Zhu Yunluo, who was returning from her daily shopping duties: "Aluo Aluo! I'm out of quarantine!" Seeing that it was her, Zhu Yunluo chuckled and replied: "I asked my mother-in-law and aunt to open it again. Xiao Zao!”
"I haven't eaten anything for more than half a month!" Qiong Yi bit off most of the meat bun in one bite, with a bulging mouth, and said in a vague voice, "Of course, I'm looking for something to eat."
"You!" Zhu Yunluo rubbed her hair: "The bangs have grown again. I'll fix them for you after lunch. In the afternoon, you go back to Yinyi Garden to have a good rest and get some sleep. In a few days, you will have another one." Where can I see you again when you leave home?"
Qiong also blinked: "Miss me?"
Zhu Yunluo looked gentle and smiled: "I think about it, I really think about it."

After lunch with everyone at the long table in the kitchen, the enthusiastic grannies asked Qiong to stay for dinner. She declined politely and finally returned to the garden. She received another invitation from her junior sister Yang Xiaosi and insisted on Qiong. I also went to visit her home not far from the city.
Qiong Yi thought to herself: Hey, I’m such a busy person!
So I went to my uncle's house for a good meal, and then walked to Yinyi Garden with a round belly when it got dark. Because it was the Yuan Dynasty today, the streets were brightly lit and full of tourists. Qiong also took a slow walk to eat, but she didn't The origin comes from the Lantern Festival in Qingfeng Town.
At that time, she and he were interlocked and side by side at the lantern festival, walking through the hustle and bustle of people.
She thought that she would go to the school in two days and see Sheng Kyung again.
Qiong also clasped her hands, thinking of the person in her heart, the corners of her lips couldn't help but rise.

Going to Yichuan again, the carriage and horses were tiring. On the way, Qiong was bored and counted the days on her fingers. Sometimes she felt that the day was so long, but when she looked back, she realized that so many days had passed without her realizing it.
Finally returned to the familiar town of Qingfeng, back to the school compound surrounded by mountains on three sides. Qiong Yi finished her greetings and went to Sheng Xuanyuan's dormitory. She knocked on the door, and it was quiet for a long time. In response, it must be that no one has come yet. Qiong Yi wanted to see that he was a little depressed, but she quickly adjusted her mood. She remembered that Sheng Xuanyuan came south by boat in the past years, so she would wait at the bridge for the ships every day in the future. he.
Sheng Xuanyuan didn't come, Su Ye didn't come, and Yan Tingshen didn't come either.
The school had not yet started classes, so she had nothing to do, so she stood on the bridge and looked at the eastward flowing river.
Today is the third day of coming to the school.
Finally, she saw several small boats approaching from a distance. The disciples on the boats were wearing the cyan blue school uniforms that she looked forward to appearing day after day. Qiong was also refreshed, and she quickly looked towards the bow of the ship, looking for the figure of the person she missed. She looked around everyone on the boat, but could not find Sheng Xuanyuan. Her breathing became heavier unconsciously, and uneasy suspicion arose in her heart.
Sheng Kyung always leads the team at the bow of the ship, why isn't he here?
Could it be...
Qiong didn't dare to think about it anymore and ran off the bridge to the river bank.
The small boats docked at the shore. There were five boats in total. The Sheng disciples got off the boats one after another, formed a team under the leadership of the strange disciple, and headed towards the school. Qiong Yi stood by the river bank and took a few more glances. She was afraid that she was dazzled and saw wrongly. Sheng Xuanyuan was actually among this group of people, but until the group of people walked far away, they completely disappeared from her sight. Zhongcai came back to his senses in a daze, and he was not there at all.
"Excuse me, please go back and rest."
"Thank you, young master."
A clear and gentle voice came from the last boat. Qiong Yi hesitated and hurriedly ran towards the embankment where the boat was parked. The man in a blue robe got up from the cabin and looked up to see the man standing on the river. On the embankment, her eyes widened: "Sheng Kyung!"
Qiong also lifted the hem of her skirt and called his name loudly.
Sheng Xuanyuan was stunned, as if something melted in his heart. He moved and quickly stepped from the bow of the boat to the low ground by the river. Qiong Yi was running quickly down the uneven stone steps from the river embankment, heading towards He spread his arms, and Sheng Xuanyuan stretched out his hand to take it.
Qiong Yi looked up from his arms, with light in his eyes: "Sheng Jing! I miss you so much!"
Sheng Xuanyuan saw the enthusiasm and unconcealable joy in her eyes, and the indifference and coldness in her eyes melted away. He hugged the little person in his arms tightly, "I miss you so much, Qiong Yi!"
Qiong Yi hugged him and couldn't stop laughing: "You scared me to death, I almost thought you wouldn't come! Then how can I go to see you..."
Sheng Xuanyuan let go of her and looked at her face carefully. Seeing that he had not spoken for a long time, Qiong also touched his face and asked with a smile, "Don't you like talking again?"
He shrunk his chin and his ears turned red.
Qiong Yi smiled and retracted his hand, and could smell the plaster on his body: "Why, are you injured? Is it serious? Let me see where the injury is."
"It's a small injury, it's okay." He moved his lips and said. He had long been accustomed to losing out frequently when competing with Qin Hanchuan at home.
Holding her slender hand, Sheng Xuanyuan lowered his eyes and held it tighter: "Qiong Yi, you have lost weight..."
Qiong also smiled nonchalantly, and gently touched his arm with the hand that was exploring his wounds. She was too embarrassed to explore his chest and abdomen, so she reluctantly took it back and said in a shy tone: "But you seem to be more... than last year. It’s solid.”
Sheng Xuanyuan choked up: How dare she say that.
Qiong Yi thought to himself, Sheng Jing's cultivation has improved a lot, and his aura is different. Has he already broken through and been promoted? She said, "You must be practicing very hard at home." After that, she held his hand and walked towards the river bank.
Thinking about how she had just seen him on the bow of the boat, the moment their eyes met, what she saw was a deep pool, deep and dead, without any ripples. It was not until he saw her that the pool came to life and became as soft as water.
"My practice has not fallen behind since I returned. I even prepared my homework in advance and read a lot of books. I will definitely do well in the exams this year! That's right! I also found time to learn embroidery, but the learning time is short. The embroidery is not that detailed. I will definitely learn more when I return to Guangyang, and then I can embroider sleeves for you! And..."
Sheng Xuanyuan enjoyed this time very much and listened to her quietly. He couldn't explain what the emotions were in his heart. He just wanted to be with her like this, and nothing else seemed to be that important.
"The author has something to say:
The chapters for each chapter are over, and the next one is probably Su Ye’s home game (?~"
