Borrowing Shoufang

Yang couldn't help admiring Yaoying, smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you."

Yaoying didn't answer, just nodded and returned to the position just now.He looked up at Zhou Ziyang with a smile on his face, squinted his eyes a little uncomfortably, and pretended to grab the small porcelain bottle on the table to avoid embarrassment.After adjusting her mentality, Yaoying went to see Zhou Ziyang's chest injury.

There was a large area of ​​bruises on the chest and abdomen, and some places even ooze and turn purple. It looked bruised and purple, so miserable.Yaoying's brows gradually frowned following the scar, which hurt even looking at it, not to mention Zhou Ziyang knew it himself.

As if seeing the unbearable feeling in Yaoying's heart, Zhou Ziyang smiled and comforted him: "It looks serious, but it's actually not painful, and it's been so long, I don't feel it anymore."

After hearing his words, Yaoying couldn't help feeling relieved, but felt even more distressed. She stretched out her fingers and touched his chest very carefully.

"hiss!"

Zhou Ziyang watched his hand stretch out slowly, and he had already made up his mind in his heart that no matter how painful it was, he would grit his teeth and hold it back, but in the end he still took a deep breath—it really hurt.Seeing Yaoying's hand that was quickly retracted, he reached out and grabbed that hand by a strange coincidence.

With a "snap", the two hands stopped together in mid-air, and what stopped with the hands was the sight of the two meeting together.The air seemed to freeze, and even the flames of the oil lamps and candles did not flicker a little, and the room was filled with silence.

Zhou Ziyang didn't know what he was thinking just now, so he grabbed Yaoying's hand just like that, and Yaoying also had a look of astonishment on his face, his eyes were wide open, and his eyes were full of his own reflection.I have to say that this kind of Yaoying is also very good-looking. After taking off his usual indifferent appearance, he looks so vivid now. Zhou Ziyang felt an impulse in his heart, and he wanted to know what other expressions Yaoying could have.

Yaoying's hand was grabbed, and he didn't know what Zhou Ziyang was thinking, but he felt that the hand that grabbed him was very warm, generous and soft.The force of grabbing him is not heavy, as long as he exerts a little force, he can break free, but the hand is too warm, he is a little greedy for that feeling, and for a moment he forgot to break free.What Zhou Ziyang saw in his eyes still had a smile on his face, gentle like a sunny day in winter, his thoughtful eyes contained his own image, with a face of astonishment, which was a rare expression for him, Even he himself didn't know that he could still show such an expression, obviously he was used to seeing many things.

After an unknown amount of time, maybe a long time or maybe just a blink of an eye, Yaoying still pushed Zhou Ziyang's hand away with light force.

"Feel sorry……"

The soft and slippery touch in his hands disappeared, Zhou Ziyang put down his hands, and clenched his fists unconsciously, as if subconsciously thinking that this would make the feeling last longer.

"It's okay."

Yaoying said lightly, but without looking at him, she picked up the small porcelain bottle on the table, gently opened the cork on the bottle mouth, and a delicate fragrance radiated from the opened bottle mouth.It was a slightly floral smell, just like the incense in the room, elegant and not greasy, very nice.

"what is this?"

"Medicine, extracted from camellia, promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis."

"Really, no wonder it smells so good."

Tilt the porcelain bottle, a stream of clear liquid flows from the mouth of the bottle to Yaoying's flat palm, put down the porcelain bottle, cover it with the other hand, gently rub the liquid in the palm with both hands, and wait until the cool liquid After getting warmer, Yaoying signaled Zhou Ziyang to come closer, and stretched out his hand to rub his injured part.

When he first touched the man, he obviously felt Zhou Ziyang tremble slightly, but he didn't stop, but exerted more strength to rub it.The power of the medicine gradually dissipated under his rubbing. Although Zhou Ziyang felt pain, he gradually felt a burst of heat in his chest and abdomen, and the pain disappeared, and soon he became enjoying it.

Zhou Ziyang breathed a sigh of relief, his chest pain was gone, and he began to observe Yaoying.It was rare for the two to get so close, and he could clearly see the fine pores on Yaoying's fair skin, the eyelashes on the slightly drooping eyelids were as thick as a feather fan, the wings of his nose flapped gently with his breathing, and the light-colored lips underneath When you sip it, it is thin and unfavorable, and it looks very soft.Zhou Ziyang exhausted all his strength to endure the urge to reach out and touch it, and his whole body tensed up.

Yao Ying, who was leaning against him, of course noticed his sudden stiffness, but he didn't say anything, he just thought that he felt pain when he lowered his strength too much, but for the sake of his body, he couldn't relax his strength, so he speeded up. A little movement of the hands, so that the potion can seep into the skin faster, and Zhou Ziyang can be freed quickly.

"Okay, this medicine works well, but it still needs to be rubbed and applied for three days. Remember to come back tomorrow."

Zhou Ziyang nodded. After rubbing for a while, he endured extremely hard. It was finally over, and he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but when he heard Yaoying say that it would take two more days, he didn't know whether he should be happy or smile wryly. .

"Thank you."

"……Need not."

Yaoying got up and put away the small porcelain bottle, while Zhou Ziyang dressed slowly.In fact, rubbing the medicine on the back is not the place where you can't touch it. You can take the medicine to Zhou Ziyang and let him handle it by himself, but the two of them didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and they didn't mention it.

Yao Ying didn't know if he noticed it, but Zhou Ziyang obviously noticed this situation, and he didn't know his motive for doing this, but he really hoped that Yao Ying would do this for him, even if In the process, he had to resist the urge to reach out and touch Yaoying.

"By the way, I want to ask you about someone." Zhou Ziyang said after getting dressed.

"who?"

"His name is Chu Zhengtian, he is a policeman, he came to the store to borrow his birthday about three years ago, do you remember?"

Yaoying lowered her eyes and pondered.

"It's been a while, it doesn't matter if you can't remember." Seeing that he had been thinking about it for a long time, Zhou Ziyang persuaded him.

"If you're talking about a handsome man with an upright face, but sometimes he smiles mischievously, he has indeed been here. But I only know about his coming here, and I don't know anything else. How could you find him? I asked him?"

"Did he really come? Then he really borrowed his birthday, and there is only one month left..." Zhou Ziyang murmured alone.

"Have you met the borrower again?"

"Well, I also met the life borrower I told you about last time, Zhang Yan. You are right. He did have several lives on him, and this policeman, Chu Zhengtian, is in charge of him. The person responsible for the case is now chasing Zhang Yan." Zhou Ziyang raised his head, looked at Yaoying's frown, and didn't know which words he said made him unhappy, so he smiled, "Oh, I was investigating Zhang Yan, he also misunderstood what I had to do with him, and followed me all the way for a week, which is why I didn’t come here during that time. Fortunately, the misunderstanding has been cleared up now, and he is actually a good person, but sometimes he is too lazy. Seriously, say something that is misleading."

Yao Ying frowned, and said: "Really." After speaking, she turned around and took down a set of white porcelain tea set from the cabinet beside her, and made the tea skillfully, filling the room with a delicate fragrance.

Zhou Ziyang smelled the fragrance of tea, and didn't bring up the topic just now. The two of them sipped the rejuvenation cup by cup, and the conversation never stopped.

"By the way, why haven't I seen Quesheng after coming here for so long, isn't he here?" Zhou Ziyang turned to look at the door when the subject changed.

Yaoying put down the teacup in his hand, followed his gaze, and said calmly: "He has been concentrating on cultivation recently, and it is almost time for him to overcome the catastrophe. No one can help him if he doesn't work hard."

"Crossing the catastrophe?" Zhou Ziyang repeated, always feeling that Yaoying's statement sounded like he was facing a big exam, and he was cramming and staying up all night studying.Zhou Ziyang couldn't help grinning when he imagined Quesheng's wrinkled face holding a book.

"Cultivators, whether they are humans, ghosts, or even ghosts, have to go through calamities to test their abilities. If they practice successfully, they will naturally pass through smoothly. If they cheat, they will naturally end up seriously injured or even killed. Ending. This is a necessary process, and I can only rely on my own strength, so I can't be careless, I have been very slack with him on weekdays, if I don't work hard at this time, how can I survive the catastrophe."

Yaoying's voice was still indifferent as usual, but Zhou Ziyang just felt a little worried. Presumably he was indifferent to Quesheng, and worried about whether Quesheng would be able to survive the tribulation smoothly.Seeing Yaoying pretending not to care, he suddenly found it very interesting.

"How did he overcome the tribulation before? It's also temporary... work harder when it comes to an end?"

Yaoying paused while drinking tea, as if recalling what he said, frowning slightly, looking a little cute, Zhou Ziyang swallowed involuntarily.

"I don't know what happened in the past. He has only been here for 200 years. When I met him, he had just experienced a catastrophe and was seriously injured. He was hunted down by a Taoist priest and escaped in embarrassment all the way. I saw him when he was young. , Surviving the calamity alone is not easy. Thinking about it, I was destined to save him. I didn’t notice when he went through the calamity last time. He was injured all over his body. Fortunately, his life was saved. I warned him in advance, I hope he won't be seriously injured like that again."

Zhou Ziyang wanted to laugh, Yaoying was not kind for a while, he himself was a soft-hearted person, but he faced people with various desires all year round, and even his own feelings became indifferent, the expression on his face It's getting less and less, it's just a big block of ice in the eyes of others, and even he himself thinks that he has no feelings anymore.Zhou Ziyang also felt that such a remote shadow was actually very lonely, but luckily there was one.
