Although Chi Yu and Yan Zening entered the mountain, they were unable to enter Queye Cave. Entering Queye Cave requires Yan Zening's spiritual power. Now that he has lost his spiritual power, Chi Yu cannot enter from the beginning.
Chi Yu took Yan Zening to the cabin halfway up the mountain.
It was already dark at this time. As soon as Chi Yu entered the door, he went to look for the small sword in the water tank. The sword was still soaking in the water, turning over and over from time to time.
Chi Yu coughed three times. This was the code she had agreed with Chi Xiaojian. As long as she coughed three times, Chi Xiaojian would pretend to be an ordinary sword. The little sword immediately stopped moving and slowly sank to the bottom of the water.
Chi Yu took out the small sword, wiped it clean, and put it on the shelf.
There was still chicken that Chi Yu had not finished eating on the table, and there was chicken soup that she had not finished drinking in the bowl. A thin layer of chicken fat had condensed on the surface, making it look very greasy.
After such a long time, Chi Yu was already hungry, and she was going to heat these things up before eating them.
Yan Zening stood blankly at the door and refused to come in, his brows furrowed.
"The smell here..."
Chi Yu held a bowl in one hand and a basin in the other. He sniffed it twice with a puzzled expression, "It doesn't smell? Did you smell it wrong?"
Chi Yu didn't know that she had stayed here for a long time, and she could be regarded as "being in the abalone house for a long time without smelling its smell". She cooks here, takes care of animals, and grows vegetables outside. In order to make the vegetables grow vigorously, she also uses pure natural and non-polluting fertilizers, although the smell is not obvious. But for Yan Zening, who had lived in the incense room for a long time and had to burn incense on his clothes, the smell was simply unbearable.
"You come in."
Chi Yu looked at the frowning person at the door and knew that she had said the wrong thing. She repeated: "Master..., come in." After saying that, she put down what she was holding and went to pull Yan Zening. Yan Zening moved his arms slightly and dodged.
Chi Yu immediately laughed awkwardly and held up her skirt, "Master, are you hungry? I... there are chickens here. I'll heat them up." She walked halfway and remembered that Yan Zening was a golden elixir cultivator. , should not be able to eat, I thought that I said the wrong thing again.
Nangong Yi only told Chi Yu that Yan Zening was injured and asked her to take good care of him. Chi Yu never thought that Yan Zening's golden elixir had been destroyed and that he was now completely a mortal - a strong mortal.
But after she had said it all, she still had the courage to use Xihuo Jue to light up the stove, heat up the chicken, put it on the table, and sincerely invited Yan Zening to eat.
Yan Zening refused.
Chi Yu had no choice but to eat and drink by herself. Just when she was satisfied with her meal, "Boom--" there was a loud noise at the door.
Chi Yu turned around and saw that her cheap master had fallen down and his upper body was lying in the cabin.
When Chi Yu saw this scene, his first reaction was that he wouldn't faint from her anger.
"Master——" she called tentatively. The people on the ground were not awake.
He must have fainted.
Chi Yu helped Yan Zening up, and the weight of his body pressed firmly on Chi Yu. Chi Yu bit his lip and threw him onto the bed.
Immediately afterwards, Chi Yu rubbed his shoulders, trying to relieve the pain from being pressed just now, but unexpectedly he touched blood on his hand.
This blood? Chi Yu's eyes slowly moved to Yan Zening. There were patches of blood on his white clothes. She thought his injuries had healed.
It's not like his injury hasn't been bandaged yet.
Chi Yu's hand slowly reached Yan Zening's lapel, but thinking of what just happened, she slowly took her hand back.
She propped her chin up and looked at Yan Zening's face illuminated by the moonlight.
It’s really beautiful...
She took a second look while the person fainted.
Just when Chi Yu was in a dreamlike intoxication, Yan Zening woke up leisurely.
Yan Zening opened his non-existent eyes and opened his eye sockets.
The opened Yan Zening added a hint of terror to his handsome and cold face. Coupled with his bloodless face, looking at it for a long time would make people feel like watching a ghost movie. However, Chi Yu was not afraid, but thought It has a unique flavor.
"What's going on?" Yan Zening raised his upper body.
"Master, you fainted. I moved you to my bed."
At this time, a "gurgling" sound came from nowhere. Chi Yu looked at his belly and realized that he had just eaten. Where did this sound come from.
The sound came again, and Chi Yu followed the sound and looked, it was Yan Zening's belly.
Chi Yu looked at Yan Zening doubtfully.
Naturally, Yan Zening didn't know Chi Yu's expression. There was a trace of confusion on his face, but he quickly calmed down and still had a cold and indifferent expression on his face.
Chi Yu knew that Yan Zening would never ask her for food.
Now that she had finished eating the chicken, Chi Yu pulled green vegetables from the vegetable patch outside the cabin, stir-fried them, steamed white rice, and gave Yan Zening a simple meal.
Yan Zening finished the meal in silence. After eating, sit quietly.
Chi Yu was washing the dishes while thinking about chatting with Yan Zening.
"Master, I will go to Duzhitang tomorrow to get you some clothes. I will go down the mountain to buy some daily necessities tomorrow. Is there anything you want me to bring for you?"
Yan Zening said nothing.
Chi Yu glanced at him and saw that he didn't respond, so she continued to talk, "Master, would you like to bandage the wound first? I see that your wound is still bleeding."
Chi Yu thought he was talking to the puppet.
After washing the dishes, Chi Yu went to make the bed.
Yan Zening finally spoke, "Is there only one room here?"
Chi Yu hummed.
"Then where do you sleep?" he continued to ask.
ah? Chi Yu couldn't figure out his thoughts for a while. Where would she sleep? Of course she slept in this cabin, otherwise where else could she go. Did he mean that he would sleep in this cabin and kick her out?
It's really hard for him to even care about her whereabouts.
Chi Yu put down the sheets, turned around and said, "Master, I will sleep here."
"Then where should I sleep?"
"Master, there are a few benches there. I'll put them together and put some sheets on them, and you can just sleep for a while, okay?"
Of course that's not possible.
When Chi Yu covered herself with the quilt and sank into the bed, Yan Zening, who was still standing outside the door, gave the answer.
The cold wind outside was blowing and whistling. Chi Yu thought that the cheap master had suffered a big change today and was still injured. She felt a little unbearable, so she got up and begged Yan Zening to come in.
"I don't use things that others have used." Yan Zening said standing beside the bed.
Chi Yu had been tortured to the point of losing his temper, so he changed him to new sheets and quilt. After Chi Yu changed, Yan Zening's handsome face said to Chi Yu:
"Don't go out yet."
Chi Yu's eyes widened, "Can't I sleep on the bench?"
Yan Zening was silent, and Chi Yu knew that this meant that it would not work.
Chi Yu hugged the small sword and walked out angrily.
She sat on a large smooth rock not far from the cabin, looked at the moon, and muttered:
"Why is there an unexpected guest?"
The small sword in his arms was swinging around, obviously dissatisfied with this uninvited guest. Chi Yu patted the small sword and comforted:
"When his injuries heal and he recovers his cultivation, he will leave. Xiaojian, please bear with me for a while. It will be quick."
Little Sword is lively by nature, and if it is left motionless for a long time, it is equivalent to making the cicada hold back its cries for an entire summer. Isn’t it uncomfortable for it?
Chi Yu put his face against Xiaojian's sword and sighed.
"We are both fallen people from the end of the world!"
…
The next day, when the first ray of sunshine in the morning shone on Chi Yu's eyelids, she woke up slowly, got up, went to the creek to tidy up her appearance, and then walked straight into the cabin.
Yan Zening had an extremely restless sleep that night. The scene of the duel between Zihai and the Siren King flashed through his mind over and over again.
The powerful alien limbs broke his copper skin and iron bones, and the golden elixir in his belly was crushed to pieces by two ugly and abnormal fingers. The golden elixir was like a baby that had lost the protection of adults. It was extremely weak, without any ability to resist, and was slaughtered by the alien limbs. .
At the moment before the golden elixir was shattered, Jingye let out a long roar, which fell from the sky and penetrated directly into the head of the Siren King. After the snow-white brain was disturbed by Jingye, the Siren King let out a shrill roar, and stretched out its strange limbs with all its strength. The sword on his head was torn to pieces.
The sword was broken into pieces, and it fell into the purple sea with the dead Siren King. The waves rolled and the purple waves surged, and the body of the Siren King was no longer visible.
Jingye—his natal sword, which was connected to his soul, was shattered here, and the fragments were nowhere to be found.
His eyes...why are they missing?
As long as this question comes out of his mind, he will have a splitting headache. Is his consciousness injured?
There are still people who don't want him to remember the truth of the matter.
what exactly is it?
What is it?
"Master."
who?
The voice was like a visitor from another world, out of place and erratic.
"I haven't woken up yet..."
Wake up? Then is he asleep?
He needs to wake up.
He can't be here.
Suddenly, the person lying on the bed opened his eyes suddenly, sweating coldly, his face was pale, and he turned his head to face the door.
Chi Yu looked at Yan Zening's dark eyes and was startled.
"I'm here to get something and I'll leave right away." Chi Yu smiled and immediately pulled his cup and toothbrush from the wooden shelf, took them and left, then closed the door gently.
Chi Yu complained to herself as she walked.
Why is it that I have to sneak into the cabin that I have lived in for two years, like a thief?
Be tougher, Chi Yu, you are being occupied by someone. You are the master and he is the guest. Yes, you should straighten your chest and walk freely in the room. Don't be afraid of him.
Chi Yu made a good mental preparation and felt that her whole body was in peace.
Walk all the way to the creek, brushing your teeth and humming a song.
After brushing his teeth, Chi Yu went out of the mountain and went straight to Duzhi Hall.
As soon as he entered the Duzhi Hall, Chi Yu couldn't help but squint his eyes. Where is Liu Ji? Is Liu Ji not here today?
"Hey!" A disciple from the Duzhi Hall patted the cabinet, "Which hole are you from? Just tell me if you have any questions. Don't look around. If you like it, you can't afford to change it."
Chi Yu smiled at him and said, "Brother, I am a disciple of Queye Cave. I want to get another discipleship order and some men's clothing."
"Quye Cave..." The disciple gave Chi Yu a meaningful look and threw her a disciple order readily, "I want to look for some clothes. You wait here." Chi Yu nodded slightly.
The disciple came back soon and threw a bag of clothes to Chi Yu. After Chi Yu put it away, he said, "I will also collect his expenses for this month for my master."
"Your master?" The disciple showed his eyes again, "Is it Master Yan?" Chi Yu nodded.
The disciple continued: "Uncle Yan already bought the sect's jade dish yesterday. From now on, he will have no expenses in his name."
Chi Yu was surprised. Was that cheap master expelled from the sect Jade Disk just because he was injured? Yijianmen is too strict.
Looking at Chi Yu's expression, the disciple choked and laughed, "As Master Yan's disciple, don't you still know that your master's golden elixir has been destroyed, his immortal roots have been lost, and he is completely a mortal now?"
After hearing this, Chi Yu felt enlightened, and all her previous doubts were explained.
Why couldn't Yan Zening enter Que Ye Peak or Que Ye Cave? Why did he really condescend to sleep in her small wooden house? Why did Yijian Sect find a young disciple like her with low spiritual power? take care of.
Yan Zening... I'm afraid he was given up...
Chi Yu walked out of the Duzhi Hall holding her things in her arms. The sun was shining brightly outside and the breeze was gentle, but her heart was like a dead tree.
Why should Yan Zening be left to her? Even if he is abandoned, can the sect show the love of fellow sects and send someone who knows the cold and warmth to take good care of him, as well as his family? Come and take a look at him. He's still injured.
Cheap Master is really cheap.
I originally thought that Yan Zening was a temporary guest, but it turned out that he might be a lifelong guest.
Chi Yu almost wanted to hold her head and scream. She lost the guidance of her elders and only had a rookie teach her the path to immortality. Is there really any hope?
She won't be at the first level of Qi refining her whole life.
But... there is a high probability that it is.
