In the courtyard where the moonlight shines, the girl in red dress has been sitting feebly on the cold stone bench since Su Xing left. Her hair is still as messy as before.
She clenched her hands, shed tears for a while, and told herself to calm down. The tears ceased at this suggestion of self-hypnosis.
After a while, it started flowing down again. Lin Xixi quickly wiped it dry with her hands, and repeated the flow several times, and finally stopped completely.
She just stood up and wanted to walk towards the door, but she stopped again when she took a step forward. She remembered Su Xing's warning not to go out.
So he hesitated on the spot for a while, and suddenly thought that maybe the red carp was just hiding in the room. If he found it, he might still have time to catch up with Su Xing who had already left.
It's just that Brother Su has been gone for a long time, I wonder if he can still catch up.
Thinking about this, she hurriedly rushed to the room, used her spiritual consciousness to carefully search the corners of the room, and even touched the overturned river water on the ground with her hands - she imagined whether the red carp was hiding in it. , suddenly jumped out, and then she could quickly ask Taoist Catfish to chase Su Xing back.
As for herself, she promised Su Xing that she would never leave the courtyard.
Only cold water stains and rough floors came from the fingertips, and tears hit them.
Lin Xixi quickly wiped it clean, tried to look calm, and walked outside the hospital. Suddenly, I thought of something and asked outside the courtyard:
"Master Catfish, is there any movement outside?"
The courtyard door was closed tightly, and Taoist Catfish's voice came out:
"It's still very quiet now!" He looked like he was facing a formidable enemy.
Lin Xixi seemed to relax a little and subconsciously asked:
"Brother Su has been out for a long time, right?"
"About half an hour."
"Half an hour." Lin Xixi murmured in her hand. At this moment, she lost consciousness of the length of time.
She opened her clenched fingers and counted one by one:
"Chou Shi, it takes two 'half hours'... Yin Shi... Mao Shi... Chen Shi... it will be dawn... Si Shi... ..."
At noon... Su Xing's words rang in her mind, and she quietly erased the concept in her heart. It wouldn't be noon.
Si Shi, yes, I just have to wait until Si Shi, then Brother Su will definitely come back.
Thinking about it this way, time is not so difficult.
The gentle pacing of a girl could occasionally be heard in the courtyard, walking endlessly around the stone table, occasionally stopping, standing for a while, and then sitting down in a daze.
Occasionally, the girl would ask outside, and a rough and serious reply would come from outside:
"After an hour, it's time to be ugly!"
"Just half an hour later..."
"It's almost Yinshi."
"..."
There is even some resentment in the back:
"It's only been half an incense since the last time I asked..."
There was a rare moment of silence in the courtyard, as if he was a little overwhelmed. But after a while, similar conversations were repeated.
After asking too many times, Taoist Catfish at the door became a little worried. He was afraid that Lin Xixi wouldn't be able to hold on any longer and would insist on leaving the hospital to find Su Xing.
Now that Su Xing has been out for the middle of the night, he doesn't know where to look. He will probably find him outside Pinjiang City in the end, which would be dangerous.
So if Lin Xixi mentioned that she wanted to go out, she would have a headache, how to refuse without offending the other party.
However, time passed like water, and the night passed, and I did not hear such a request from the other party.
Only the previous conversation kept repeating itself.
...
Su Xing bid farewell to Jiang Yu.
Before leaving, the two exchanged addresses, agreed on a time to meet next time, and then said goodbye.
Some memories seemed blurry in my mind, but that didn't matter.
I recovered the dragon species tonight. Although I didn't understand the reason, if I asked the dragon species, the other party couldn't explain it, as if he had no memory.
According to the few words in his words, it seemed that he had been inspired by some nature, so he subconsciously swam into the Pinjiang River.
Su Xing could only speculate that this was a special feature of the essence-blood dragon species, and put it aside for the time being.
Fortunately, the goal of retrieving the dragon species was achieved, and Liu Dadao got rid of him. From now on, we only need to make some plans for the possible problem of dragon species.
Thinking of these, the small courtyard appeared in front of me.
Taoist Catfish noticed him immediately, his vigilant eyes suddenly burst into joy, he turned his head and shouted into the courtyard:
"Fairy Lin, Master Su is back!"
"Brother Su!" A cry of great surprise came from the courtyard, like the clear chirping of a bird in the morning light.
Su Xing smiled and pushed open the courtyard door.
Beside the stone table in the courtyard, Lin Xixi stood with her body curled up, as if she was a little smaller, and her hands were clenched tightly. The tear-stained face was covered by a strong look of joy, making him look a bit embarrassed.
He stood motionless.
Su Xing was slightly confused, but the smile on his face remained unchanged. He stepped through the courtyard gate and patted the fish basket on his waist:
"Look what this is..."
A gust of wind slammed into his arms.
Looking down, I saw Lin Xixi's hair was still a little messy, just like yesterday.
"I know you will definitely come back..."
"So I have been waiting in the yard obediently..."
"Haven't even taken a step out."
The voice was small, like mumbling. An inexplicable emotion arose in Su Xing's heart. He asked her to wait in the courtyard. Was it necessarily a good thing? The fear she endured in this courtyard might be better than facing danger.
But Su Xing knew that he would still choose this way next time.
He patted Lin Xixi's head and hugged her tighter.
The two of them didn't say much, but an unspoken atmosphere enveloped them.
The person in his arms suddenly raised his head and showed a pure smile, but tears fell from his eyes at the same time:
"I thought you would be back later! Two and a half hours early..."
Su Xing seemed to see a figure counting the time under the moon with her fingers. The hard heart tempered by reincarnation seemed to have melted a lot at this moment. He stretched out a hand and gently wiped away the tears on her face:
"Kitten."
...
In the days that followed, the courtyard seemed to be calm again.
It was even calmer than before. Not long after staying in the hotel, half-figures of the monks were occasionally seen nearby and disappeared.
This monk was quite interesting. When they went out, he would be seen far behind them. If discovered, turn around and pretend not to know. Even if you knew I was following you, there would be nothing you could do.
Perhaps Liu Dadao gave up the unnecessary surveillance when he couldn't find him that night.
Su Xing didn't take it to heart and spent most of his time practicing. In addition, Han Qiaozhi, who had an appointment to meet in Pinjiang City, has not yet appeared.
People went to inquire about the news, but no one among the Purple Jade Sect disciples gathered in Zhenzhu Town had seen her.
Su Xing just thought it was because she had something to do at home and came late. After all, returning home is to handle their own mortal affairs separately, and only he and Lin Xixi are alone now, so it is easy to deal with them.
In this way, the days are approaching day by day.
Dragon Climbing Day is coming soon.
