Relief

In the evening, Xie Zhixu had a bad appetite, his abdominal pain was bursting, and he didn't eat a few mouthfuls of food. He lay alone in the guest room upstairs, listening to the bustling noises downstairs as if a banquet was being held.

After the voices died down, Wu Li came up to give him medicine.

"Is it very hot?" Wu Li lifted up his clothes, seeing that the bandages wrapped around his abdomen were a little wet.

"It's so hot." Xie Zhixu said weakly.

Wu Li helped him take off his coat.

After drinking the medicine, he lay down for a while, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, Xie Zhixu turned his head to Wu Li's back on the other couch and said, "Can you help me take off the bandage?"

Wu Li didn't answer.

Appears to have fallen asleep.

The night wind flowed into the half-open window, Xie Zhixu sighed in the coolness, and closed his eyes.

There is probably a meridian in the belly connected to the head, and the temples swell up and down, disturbing one's lucid dream.On a sober night, the sound in every corner of the inn was amplified. The night watchman Xiaoyunwei yawned on the beam, and the bodyguards brought the food and drinks back to the room for supper time. Yueguanshan had already fallen asleep. It was so hot that he stuck out his tongue, the fourth child in the backyard was probably still awake, and he didn't hear his dull snoring.

What about Fengzhichang?

Xie Zhixu recalled one of the few times he lived in the same room with Feng Zhichang.Fengzhi often does everything quietly, and can disappear in the attention of others inadvertently.

There was a slight sound on the hinge of the door, and the next moment it was gently pushed open.

Xie Zhixu was about to open his eyes and sit up, to see who was coming at this time, when suddenly a light flashed in his heart, he closed his eyes and lay back down.

Sure enough, I heard the running wheel gurgling into the room.

He resisted the obvious twitching of the eyeballs under the lids.The wheelchair listened for a while beside the standing screen, as if to confirm whether the person inside was fast asleep, before slipping quietly to the side.

A familiar scent of incense filled the air.

That's great, luckily the bandage didn't come off, Xie Zhi humbly thought.He could feel his stomach contracting tensely under the bandages.

A coldness that was different from Liang Ye penetrated through the bandage, landed on his abdomen, and expanded lightly, leaving traces of the palm.The hand felt around his abdomen, pressed to the injured part, and a clear tingling pain spread into Xie Zhixu's brain.

What should I do, should I bear it or wake up from the pain?Xie Zhixu thought quickly and orderly: What if he is testing me?No, even a half-dead person should wake up from the pain!

Although he thought a lot, in fact, Xie Zhixu babbled uncomfortably "in his sleep" only for a moment.

That hand stopped at the wound he touched, took out a pair of scissors, and cut the bandage along the edge.

There were fireworks exploding in Xie Zhixuan's heart.

He came to treat me?

Although I tend to ignore you during the day, but in the dead of night, you quietly come to treat me!

That hand paused for a moment, as if he was a little puzzled, his eyes fell on Xie Zhixu's face, he probed for a long time, and finally thought that he was having some kind of sweet dream, he kept working on his hand, opened tools by the couch, lit a fire stick , took out the silver needle and set it on the flames.

When the scorching needle tip touched the skin, Xie Zhixu's sensations had been completely taken away by the cold touch of the fingertips on his middle abdomen.The breath suddenly approached, causing Xie Zhixu to generate two streams of heat in his body, one directed towards his face, and the other directed towards his lower body.

bad bad bad bad...

Fortunately, he still had half a shame blanket on his body, so the person who gave the needle didn't notice it.

The sharp acupuncture turned into a kind of stimulation in disguise, Xie Zhi Xu Shengsheng carried it until the acupuncture was over, and the wisp of incense was about to leave him, so he grabbed a wrist with his long arm without even thinking about it.

He opened his eyes and sat up, seeing Feng Zhichang's face whitened by the twilight in the night after the flames were extinguished, the eyelashes were drooping tightly and drooping, covering his eyes that were not very surprised.

Xie Zhixuan smiled silently, grabbed Feng Zhichang's hand hard, and brought him to him.Feng Zhichang was startled and struggled.

Wu Li turned around.

The two confronting each other froze at the same time.

Wu Li turned back again.

Feng Zhichang stared at Xie Zhixu, the panic in his eyes was more than warning, but the strength between his wrists was getting stronger and stronger.Xie Zhixu had never shown such a strong side in front of him. The familiar face in front of him had unhealed scars from the days of fighting, full of disturbing aggression.

With his empty hand, he quickly pushed the wheelchair away from the bed, but both the person and the chair were turned upside down.Xie Zhixu looked like a nimble leopard jumping up from the injured couch. The moment the wheelchair fell to the ground, Xie Zhixu's toes slowed down. The next moment, he was told that Chang had already collapsed on Xie Zhixu's couch, with his hands fixed on top of his head. There is an energetic little leopard lying on his body.

The little leopard's ears were red, he smiled shyly, and pressed his lips against his ears, murmuring silently:

Brother, help me...

The hot breath climbed up and down the neck along the neck, and sprayed on the corners of Feng Zhichang's tight lips, and the warm water vapor dyed the corners of the lips bright red.A gleam of water appeared in Feng Zhichang's eyes, he closed his eyes, opened his lips slightly - the weight on his body was pressed down.

"Do not."

Breathing out the sound between the teeth, it was as calm as a heavy hammer in the face.Xie Zhixu sat up straight slowly, with his fangs pressed against his throat, the black-scaled snake was entangled on Feng Zhichang's chest, its head was raised high, and its pupils stood up.

Get off.

Feng Zhichang stared at Xie Zhixu with a sharp expression.The black scaled snake released a danger signal.

Xie Zhixu let go of his hand and watched him sit up, his legs hanging by the bed, his chest rising and falling.After being silent for a while, Xie Zhixu remembered to help the wheelchair up, and reached out to Feng Zhichang, but he ignored him, supported himself to sit back, and pushed towards the door.

Xie Zhixu looked at his back, as soon as he moved his hand, the black-scaled snake popped out of Feng Zhichang's shoulder, spitting out the snake letter.

"..."

The door closes.

Xie Zhixu stayed silent for a while, then fell back on the couch.

"Screw it up..." He pulled the blanket over his head gloomily.

Does the second brother not like me...

"Is the liking you say and the liking you think in your heart the same thing?" Lu Hui said, "If you want to simply say you like it, everyone is in love with each other day and night, who can dislike whom? Even if Yin Zhi chokes me all day long, in my heart You also like my senior brother, right Yin Zhi?"

Shu Yinzhi passed by holding the drinking water he had stored for the convoy, showing a face with sore teeth.

"But what you want to like is love. In this world, even the relationship between a man and a woman has to be pushed and asked. What's more, what you like is a senior brother of the same school. You will get used to being rejected a few times."

Lu Hui took advantage of the wounded and was able to lie on the stairs side by side with Xie Zhixu and watch the people in the convoy downstairs come and go as they prepared the supplies needed for the next leg of the journey.

Xie Zhixu looked sideways at Lu Hui: "Why do you seem to be very skilled?"

Lu Hui said, "I'm the one who's weird. How come you, a young master from a family, have accepted your liking for men so naturally? Is it natural?"

"How do I know, I have never liked anyone before." Xie Zhixu lowered his head and shook the medicine bowl in his hand, thinking for a while, "I have an older brother who likes men, I... have seen him get along with his lover .”

"Oh," Lu Hui nodded clearly, and then suddenly said in shock, "You shouldn't have peeked at the secrets of other people's beds!"

Pfft—a mouthful of medicine was sprayed out before swallowing.

On the first floor, Jing Busheng was passing by, and his movements were so swift that Xie Zhixu didn't even see her movements clearly.

Jing's invincible gaze moved from the puddle of unknown medicinal liquid falling from the sky at his feet to the railing on the second floor.

Xie Zhi Xuhan was startled.

"If you don't drink all the medicine, I'll hang you up and whip you three hundred times." Jing Busheng smiled kindly, and walked away shaking his bone fan.

Looking around, Lu Hui was nowhere to be seen, and she was crouching behind the railing to hide and tremble: "It's scary, scary, what a scary woman."

Xie Zhixu: "..."

The door of a room on the second floor opened, and Feng Zhichang came out pushing a wheelchair.

The poisonous old monster seemed to have an eye on him, and as soon as Feng Zhichang appeared, he also jumped up and down, chasing after Feng Zhichang.

"Hey, Feng Er, don't ignore me when old friends meet again!"

"Come on, look at the bandage on my body. It is the latest model I researched at Dayun Temple in Liangzhou, which collects all kinds of books from all over the world. The material used is very particular, and the logic is very unique, which is enough to say that it is invulnerable to all poisons. Try it Let's see if we can crack it!"

"Come on, give it a try!"

"It doesn't matter whether you live or die, until the winner is determined!"

Feng Zhichang's face was dark, his aura was cold, and his expression was so stinky that it could be described as "jump off the stairs and don't bother me".

Xie Zhixu looked left and right, but he couldn't see the Tang Sect guard, so he could only shout at the top of his voice, "Mr. Poison, Mr. Poison!"

The poisonous old monster who was about to rush to Feng Zhichang to die looked over.

Feng Zhichang avoided looking at Xie Zhixu.

"What, boy!"

"Mr. Poison, is there something wrong with the medicine you gave me? Something is wrong after I drink it. Can you take a look?"

The poisonous old monster was displeased: "I didn't see anything happening here."

Xie Zhixu clutched his stomach and fell to the ground: "Oh, it hurts, it hurts!" Lu Hui exaggeratedly knelt beside him: "Brother Xie, don't die!"

Poison boss: "..."

Feng Zhichang: "..."

The poisonous old monster scratched his head, so he had no choice but to go and have a look first.

Xie Zhixu, who fell on the ground, narrowed his eyes, and saw Feng Zhichang going downstairs behind the poisonous old monster, and gave him a cryptic look before leaving, too far away to see what it meant.

"What's wrong?" The poisonous old monster knelt down and asked.

Xie Zhixu immediately got up from the ground: "There is nothing wrong, please excuse me, Mr. Poison."

The poisonous old monster trembled visibly to the naked eye, and the monster under the bandage roared: "You are sick!"

"I'm sick." Xie Zhixu said sincerely.

When the poisonous old monster turned around, he couldn't find Feng Zhichang's shadow, and he was so angry that he put his head in his hands and turned around on the spot. He couldn't poison his young master's good brother on the spot, so he could only walk away in despair.

Lu Hui and Xie Zhixu clapped their hands tacitly: "You're very good, brother Xie. As expected, it is the instinct of all creatures to be courteous in front of a courtship object."

Xie Zhixu was choked by what he said: "It's not my intention, nor...uh..."

Lu Hui asked, "What's wrong with what I said?": "That's right, it's not intention, it's instinct."

"...you can say whatever you want."

"But you know too much, brother Xiao Lu," Xie Zhixu said strangely, "You sound very experienced."

Lu Hui grinned at him: "If you have stayed in the sect where only one girl, Yin Zhi, among the three thousand disciples has stayed in the sect for more than ten years, you won't be surprised by such things."

"Let's go, I'll take you to our Huangren Ridge to learn more." He went downstairs with Xie Zhixu's shoulders in his arms. The motorcade was ready to set off in the summer morning breeze.
