38.

A tripod incense burner, green smoke curling up.

Jing Shu held her long hair in her hands, her eyes were sharp and piercing, looking straight at me through the small hole.

Every time he vomited, it seemed that deep-seated hatred was brewing.

Suddenly, a weird idea came to my mind.

She is like a lifeless stone statue, and she has been waiting for me here for a long time with a grudge that has existed for an unknown number of years.

When she was in a daze, Jing Shu had already rolled her eyes with a smile, her green eyes were green and clear, without the dead and silent look just now.

— as if I just missed it.

She tapped the table with her fingertips, her voice was like jade, and she heard: "Zhenjun Qingying, it has already passed overnight."

When I heard Fu Qing's name, my eyes couldn't move freely to look at him.

He sat upright, his forehead hair drooped slightly, his eyes were tightly covered, only his porcelain-white chin was exposed, his lips were tightly pressed, and he said nothing.

Jingshu changed her hand to support her chin, still smiling slightly, with a very relaxed expression: "Once the frost flower is refined, the time limit is only three days, and I hope the real king will make a decision as soon as possible."

Fu Qing remained silent.

"What exactly is the real gentleman hesitating about?"

Although she was talking to Fu Qing, she stared at me without blinking, and her tone became more gentle: "The green plum in the past, but the stubborn tree today. Zhenjun has been silent for a long time. Could it be that he wants to sit and enjoy the blessings of everyone?"

What green plums and stubborn trees?I was at a loss when I heard it, but I had a faint feeling of bad premonition.

"If it's really difficult for Zhenjun to make a decision, why don't I make a decision for Zhenjun." She picked up the bottle in a gesture, but she was not in a hurry to uncork it, with a smile on her face, as if she was sure that Fu Qing would stop her.

Sure enough, Fu Qing said: "Slow down."

Jing Shu said with a smile: "The cousin is more important, isn't it?"

Hearing this, my heart beat faster and faster uncontrollably, almost bursting out of my chest.I took a very light breath and fixed my eyes on Fu Qing, wanting to see how he would react.

But he avoided answering, just said lightly: "Give it to me."

Jing Shu didn't answer, holding the bottle in her hand, she asked the last sentence: "What about Brother Shaoshe's life? He took blood for you and damaged his own cultivation. Zhenjun has never been tempted by him at all?"

Hearing this, I couldn't help closing my eyes, my lips were very dry, and my hands and feet were even colder.In fact, I already had a definite answer in my heart, but I didn't want to see his expression at this time as if I was avoiding it.

After a long silence, I heard him say in a cold tone: "No."

Sure enough.Obviously the expected answer, why am I so sad?

I suddenly remembered that at Qingdu Terrace last night, the bright moon hung high, and the Tang flowers were like snow.

When he looked at me, there was a sky full of stars in his eyes.I thought that there should not only be hatred in it, but perhaps some affection that has never been known to outsiders.

It turned out that I was self-indulgent.

There was a creaking sound, and the door was pushed open forcefully.

I opened my eyes abruptly, and only had time to catch a corner of the immaculate white dress and Jing Shu's half-smile look.

he's gone.

He just left?

Jingshu's voice passed through the small hole and reached my ears clearly, as if she was very wronged: "Brother Shaoshe, I'm sorry, I originally wanted to give you a surprise."

39.

In a daze, Ah Sheng called me: "Brother... I didn't know it would be like this, you, are you okay?"

I turned my head, but I was able to calmly say to A Sheng: "Detoxify me."

But she shook her head: "The time for half a stick of incense has passed, and the medicine's effect has long since dissipated. Brother, I will support you, can you try to stand up?"

It turns out that the toxicity has long been resolved.

It was because I was too engrossed just now that I didn't even notice such an obvious thing.

I moved my limbs, although the poison had just disappeared and my body was still a little weak, but it was not to the point where I could walk with the help of others, so I politely rejected A Sheng's proposal and stood up by myself by supporting the wall.

A Sheng watched from the side, with an angry expression: "Oh! Brother, I, I just said he is a log!"

I ignored her, just walked towards the door with all my heart, pushed the door open with all my strength, and shouted loudly: "Zhenjun!"

There was no one in front of me.

Only then did I realize that the room was on the side, so I ran to the front of Xunfang Hall and looked around.

Sure enough, he hasn't gone far.

I was so anxious that my voice trembled a little, and I didn't choose what to say for a while, but I actually called out his real name directly: "Fu Qing!"

The white figure in the distance paused, and actually stopped.

Seeing him stop, I thought there was still room for things to turn around, so I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and ran towards him.

When I ran behind him, he still turned his back to me and didn't look back.

I closed my eyes, suppressed my sadness, and said softly, "Qingqing, look back at me."

After a long time, Fu Qing turned around slowly, no joy or anger could be seen on his face, it was full of indifference, his phoenix eyes were slightly raised, as cold as water.

I'm most afraid of him looking at me like this.

When Linlang Tianque first met, he looked at me like this.To him, I'm like a tiny speck of dust, in his eyes I can't tell the slightest bit.

It took me a lot of effort, a lot of thought, and finally... so that he can see me.

Why did everything change in just one night?

I was wrong, I must be wrong.

Thinking of the flowers I picked today, I reached into my shirt with trembling hands, took out the flowers, handed them to him, and forced a smile: "Qingqing, you didn't take the flowers yesterday, so I... picked them again." One. Do you like this flower?"

He stood there, quietly listening to me, with an indescribable expression on his face.

After a long while, he raised his hand, took the flower in my hand, lowered his eyes to examine it for a moment, before I could be happy, I saw his five fingers retracted slightly, shaking the flower to pieces, and then raised it.

"You don't have to follow me from now on."

I froze in place as if struck by lightning, my eyes were covered with mist, and I couldn't see his face clearly.

After thinking about it, he asked him tremblingly: "If I, I don't follow you, you, your cousin, yes, what should your cousin do?"

Fu Qing stared at me for a moment, and finally said: "She doesn't need you anymore."

Seeing him turn around and want to leave, I was panicked and anxious, and I had to think of something to keep him.

correct.

I took two steps, grabbed his sleeve, and said softly, "Did Zhenjun forget that he still owes me two wishes?"

He turned his back to me, and his tone seemed displeased: "Let go."

I was dumb, let go of my hand, and stared at him with my eyes open.He quickly untied the jade whistle from his waist and threw it to me without looking back.

"If you make up your mind, blow this whistle, and Zhu Zhao will bring you to see me."

I looked at the jade whistle silently for a while, and when I looked up again, his white clothes were already fluttering in the wind, gradually drifting away, leaving me with an unattainable back at last.

I stayed where I was, a sudden chill gushed out from my limbs, my teeth trembled from the cold, I couldn't utter a single syllable, I could only hold tightly to the jade whistle he threw to me at the end.

There are thousands of thoughts in my head, messy and entangled, and I can't sort out a single thing clearly or smoothly.

Jingshu didn't know when she was standing behind me, Rourou called me: "Brother Shaoshe."

Hearing this, my stiff and erect body moved slightly, recalling the way she looked at me just now, I couldn't figure out whether she was more sincere to me, or she was completely hypocritical.

I opened my mouth and said dumbly: "This is the end of the matter, why do you have to be hypocritical."

"I really want to surprise you."

Jingshu walked around in front of me, her green eyes glowing with water, and she looked at me sadly: "I gave him a night to think about it, if he had chosen you just now, I would also offer Yulu with both hands. By then, his cousin will be fully recovered , you don’t need to waste your cultivation anymore, wouldn’t everyone be happy?”

I said silently, so that is the case.

No wonder he left so simply, it turns out he really doesn't need me anymore.But I have done so much for him, why doesn't he even look back at me?

Realizing that I had resented that person in my heart for a moment, I was stunned, and couldn't help but sneer, and asked myself, what do you think you are?

Didn't I already understand?From the beginning to the end, he tolerated me in every way and retreated step by step, all because of the miraculous effect of my painstaking effort.Nine borders are vast, but only I can save his cousin.

I thought it was just me.

So I have no fear, so I press every step of the way.

Once the only one is no longer the only one, I will be useless to him.I have no fate with him, but the matter has come to this point, why do I... still not give up?

Seeing that I was silent, Jing Shu said again: "Brother should know that your painstaking efforts cannot completely cure the fire poison, but can only relieve the symptoms."

"The curse of fire poison is caused by Cangtian, a land-suppressing divine beast from the Fire Realm. Therefore, the person who tied the bell must be untied. Cangtian is an ancient divine beast. With his power as a fairy, it may be difficult to achieve."

"However, even ancient beasts have their gate of life. Cangtian's gate of life lies in the cluster of divine fire at its tail. All his divine powers come from this, and this cluster of divine fire is only my holy product. Only the jade dew made from frost flower can be extinguished for a short time."

I stared at her: "Since you have a method, why didn't you take out the holy product earlier?"

Seeing me questioning her, Jing Shu couldn't help showing a sad look: "Since it is a sacred product, how can there be any reason for it? You only know that the crown flower blooms once a thousand years, but you don't know that the same is true for the frost flower?"

I saw tears in her eyes, although I don't know if she was playing tricks on me at the moment, but she finally softened her heart: "I made a slip of the tongue."

Jing Shu shook her head, and got closer to me: "Brother, you don't need to apologize to me."

"Although Shuangpa is extremely precious, for the sake of my brother, I don't feel unwilling in my heart. Although you don't mention it to others, I know it. Every time you put your heart and soul into it, ten years of cultivation will be deducted. According to this situation , before his cousin recovers, you will soon lose your cultivation and die."

Being caught in everything she said, my heart tightened a bit, and I was very bored.Frowning for a while, he turned and said, "You said just now that only holy things can extinguish the divine fire, so... what happens after the divine fire is extinguished?"

"Just take a drop of Cang Tian's blood."

"It's really that simple?" I couldn't believe it.

Jingshu wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and suddenly smiled at me: "Brother, do you really think this is an easy matter? Qingying Zhenjun and the divine beast Cangtian have opposite attributes, even if he holds my dry mulberry holy product, he may not be in the upper hand. What's more , Can the divine fire on Cangtian's tail be so easy to get close to?"

I heard anxiously: "So Fu Qing's trip will be dangerous?"

Jing Shu still smiled, and said firmly: "It's extremely dangerous."

I couldn't stand anymore, turned around and wanted to leave, but Jing Shu held me back: "Why are you in such a hurry, brother?"

She said softly, "I hope he never comes back."

I was slightly annoyed: "What did you say?"

"He only knew that he wanted to take a drop of Cangtian's blood, but he didn't know that the records in the ancient books are not complete. After the blood is taken, you still need to hang on for three days to save his cousin. Exchange blood."

My heart tightened, and I stared at her blankly.

"Brother stays in the Qiansang tribe, so no one can exchange her blood. Even if True Monarch Qingying obtained Cang Tian's blood and used it rashly as medicine, it would only exacerbate the death of that person."

Jingshu raised her face, her eyes were full of autumn water: "Brother Shaoshe, this is the second surprise I gave you."
