The seeds of crossing

When it reached Yuan Xiaoan's left hand, it suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Yuan Xiaoan asked.

Guan Shan's expression became solemn in an instant, and he took Yuan Xiao'an's hand, and there was a faint blood stain on the fleshy palm.

"Oh, it's okay, this is your blood, I accidentally got it when I wiped it for you." Yuan Xiaoan thought that Guan Shan was worried about this, and quickly explained.

"How did you do this?" Guan Shan lightly touched the tip of his ring finger.

"Huh?" Yuan Xiaoan checked carefully after hearing the words, and there was a faint scratch on the fingertip of the ring finger with the jade ring, and there was a circle of blood around the scratch that was not obvious.He thought about it carefully:

"Oh, when I picked up the porcelain vase that Mi Shuai threw to me, it seemed to be scratched. This small scratch is nothing to worry about, so don't worry too much." Yuan Xiaoan quickly explained, but his heart was warm , Guan Shan can even notice such a small scar.

However, Guan Shan's expression became even darker: "You let Xiaoning out now to have a look."

"Xiaoning?" Yuan Xiaoan was puzzled at first, but soon he realized that Xiaoning will bloom at any time now, and blood... If you want to realize your wish, you must drip your own blood when it blooms ...

Yuan Xiaoan hurriedly recited the incantation, and after a burst of white light, the now luxuriant Xiaoning appeared in front of the two of them gracefully, and on the top branch, an elegant and clear white flower like a lotus flower was blooming proudly with.

Yuan Xiaoan was shocked: "This...this is!"

Even though Guan Shan had been prepared for a long time, he couldn't help being shocked when he saw it now. The Xiaoning in front of him was no longer as cheerful and playful as before. He shook a branch at Yuan Xiaoan, expressing how much he missed him in the past few days, but The low branches made the stamens of the flower completely displayed in the eyes of the two of them.

Two drops of bright red blood were impressively stained on the light yellow tender stamens.

The two didn't know what to do for a moment.

Xiao Ning shook her head, seeing that neither of them responded, she lowered her head boredly, and the petals of the flower slowly closed under the two people's gaze.

"This... the blood drop on the stamen, is it one drop for each of us?" After a while, Yuan Xiaoan asked slowly.

Guan Shan stared at the closed petals, his eyes were deep and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Guan Shan?"

"It looks like this." Guan Shan replied indifferently: "So, I don't know what kind of fruit it will bear." As he spoke, he lightly chanted a spell, and Xiaoning was included in the ring again.

"No matter what the fruit is, you just need to make a wish to restore your soul." Yuan Xiaoan said calmly.

Guan Shan looked at him with complicated eyes: "You don't want to fix your legs?"

"Now it's like this, didn't I just repel those Liu Mochans~" Yuan Xiaoan smiled brilliantly.

Guan Shan stared at Yuan Xiao'an quietly for a moment, then raised his hand and embraced him in his arms.

Yuan Xiaoan nestled obediently in his arms, and suddenly felt a sense of literature and art that traveled through thousands of years just for this moment.

"Xiao'an." Guan Shan leaned his head against Yuan Xiao'an's neck, and suddenly called out in a soft voice.

"Ah."

"After a few days and I've adjusted, I'll be away for a while."

"Huh?" Yuan Xiaoan slowly pushed Guan Shan:

"Why? Where are you going?"

"I said before that I want to help you find a way to heal your legs."

Yuan Xiaoan nodded.

"I have a friend who always likes to study these soul-healing techniques. A few days ago, because the journey was far away, and the weather was too cold, I didn't go there. Now I passed Qingling and walked south for about two days. Then you can reach his cave, I want to go and ask."

"But the enemy hasn't found out yet, so what if you go on the road alone and you are ambushed?" Yuan Xiaoan shook his head: "My leg has been like this for a long time, and now I am not as persistent as before, can it be cured? , you don’t really care when it’s cured, so why are you in a hurry?”

"But you don't care, I will." Guan Shan picked up Yuan Xiao'an's hand: "Xiao'an, if you can't find a cure for your legs during this trip, I will give you the fruit of Xiaoning."

"What?" Yuan Xiaoan suddenly clenched Guan Shan's hand, and was about to refute.

"This is the result of my deliberation," Guan Shan said first, "I have already decided."

"But after the Yuanshen is damaged, he will not be able to practice diligently..."

"I've lived for more than 3000 years, so what's the point?" Guan Shan slowly withdrew his hand and patted the back of Yuan Xiaoan's hand: "Tomorrow I will explain to them, whether you are here or in front I will wait for a few days in the village and town, and I will come back as soon as possible.”

So it was decided, Yuan Xiaoan stared at Guan Shan steadily, presumably he had thought about this decision for a long time, and he couldn't convince him with a few words, Yuan Xiaoan thought for a moment, and said seriously: "Go, but, must Go with Mi Shuai or Wang Bo."

"...Okay. I'll discuss it with them tomorrow, but..." Guan Shan paused: "That friend of mine probably doesn't like Mi Shuai."

"Why?" Yuan Xiaoan was quite curious.

"Because he is a snake."

The author has something to say:

No.20 seven times

In the early morning of the third day, after a brief farewell, the four of them started their journey separately.

Guan Shan took Uncle Wang to visit a friend who is a snake. Mi Shuai and Yuan Xiaoan went all the way, because they thought it would not be easy to hide the ruined temple next to the road for a long time, so they made an agreement with Guan Shan and set off for the next town. Yunbian Town.

Yunbian Town is about two days away from the ruined temple. Since there was no carriage, Mi Shuai and Yuan Xiaoan had no choice but to use flying skills, stop and go along the way, and finally arrived at Yunbian Town in the early morning of the second day .

However, it may be because of the early time, many shops were not open, and the two walked around for a long time before finding an unremarkable small inn.

The proprietress of the inn is a chubby aunt in her fifties, she is very enthusiastic, Guan Yuan Xiaoan thinks it is inconvenient, so she takes the initiative to discuss with the residents on the first floor, and transfer a certain Tianzi room on the second floor to the other. It was changed, and the room on the first floor was vacated for Yuan Xiaoan. Yuan Xiaoan thanked him repeatedly, and stopped in front of the counter to wait for the guest to pack his luggage.

At this time, I heard the proprietress shout to the backyard: "Old Zheng, is it all right, it will be dark if we don't go away!"

Someone in the backyard promised repeatedly, and after a while, a person came in from the back door. He was an old man who was about the same age as the proprietress. The doll looked like it was carved out of a New Year painting. Yuan Xiaoan's eyes lit up when he saw it, and he chatted with the proprietress with a smile, "Is this your grandson? He looks so cute!"

The proprietress's eyebrows were full of pride: "That's right, not only you, everyone in the ten miles and eight villages say so~"

While talking, the old man had already approached, the proprietress touched the little baby's head affectionately, turned around and took out a bundle from the counter and handed it to the old man, saying: "There are some dry food and water in it, and some bags from Wang Daxian'er. You have the talisman, don’t lose it.”

The old man took it obediently, and carefully stuffed it into the bag behind his back, and said to the proprietress with a little worry: "If it doesn't look good in a few days, this shop should be closed for a while. It's important to make less money. It's safe and sound." That's the truth."

"I don't worry if you take the child with you. Who can I recruit as an old woman? It's okay." Well, I will close the shop and go to the countryside to avoid it, don't worry."

Only then did the old man feel slightly relieved: "Then, I'll be leaving."

The proprietress nodded and went out to see the old man a long way before turning back. Seeing that Yuan Xiaoan and the two were still waiting, she brushed her hair in embarrassment: "I made you two laugh."

Yuan Xiaoan hesitated when he heard the words, and pretended to be curious: "Miss Boss, from what you just said, it seems that you have encountered some trouble?"

The proprietress first looked out when she heard the words, and when she saw that there was no one, she turned around and replied in a low voice: "The two of you can tell that you are from another place, you must not know, we here, a while ago Here comes a monster!"

"monster?"

"Yeah, we can't catch six-year-old babies. Several of them have been taken away in our town. Now everyone who has children at home is panicked. No, I asked our old man to send the children to him quickly." Let's go, it's fine if the child isn't here."

"Then, didn't you find some powerful Taoist priests to collect it?"

"I looked for it, why didn't I look for it? Several big families in the town paid for several Taoist priests who said they were good, but in the end, none of them came back. Everyone said that it got into the stomach of a monster. It was terrible." Yes, everyone doesn't know what that monster looks like, and there is nowhere to hide. You should have noticed that many shops in the town have closed their doors and gone out to take refuge. My family used to rely on this small shop to maintain some income, old woman I'm small-minded and can't let go, so it's still open, but if the situation is really bad, I'm going to close the door and go out to avoid it." The proprietress said a lot in one breath, and looked up to see two The man listened earnestly, and couldn't help persuading him: "I don't know what the two of you are here for. If it's not important, it's better to leave earlier."

Seeing that the proprietress was really worried, Yuan Xiaoan quickly smiled gratefully: "Thank you, proprietress, we two made an appointment with friends to meet here, but the two of them haven't arrived yet, and we don't know where to send the news, I think it's time to leave It’s over, I’m thinking of blaming you for the past few days, if you’re leaving anytime, just let us know.”

The proprietress suddenly realized: "It turns out that this is the case, then you can live in it first, and see the situation in a few days."

How many people have chatted so far?
