Chen Xiao was awakened by the heat.

He opened his eyes and found that he was lying in the quilt, and he could still feel the faint moisture and heat in the air.

He wanted to sit up, but because only one left hand responded to his movement, the empty right arm caused his body to lose balance, and he almost fell back into the bedding again.

Chen Ling looked down at the bare upper arm in a daze, feeling very unreal.He stared blankly for a moment before he noticed that the place where he was lying was surrounded by curtains, and his body was covered with thick mats similar to tatami mats.In a space of less than ten square meters, in the corner was a lighting instrument that Chen Xiao had seen before, emitting a soft, dim light.He turned his head to look around, and he could see a few square copper-colored pillars holding up the curtain.

What is this place?Where is Big Brother?Doubts flashed in Chen Xiao's mind.

He pulled back the quilt, took out a suit of clothes from the storage box on his left wrist, and put them on.

The simplest movements that are usually taken for granted, became terribly stupid because of the loss of a dominant hand. Chen Ling was sweating all over before she managed to put on her shirt.

When wearing trousers, Chen Xiao was still not used to the new center of gravity of his body, so Chen Xiao failed in several attempts.Gradually unable to restrain his impatience in his heart, Chen Xiao let out an annoyed cry.

A gust of air flowed through, and a corner of the curtain was blown up, and then it was pulled away suddenly, revealing a very familiar face.Xi Yunting frowned slightly, and when he saw him with anxious eyes, he showed sincere joy, "Brother Xiao, you're awake!"

"Brother!" Although Chen Xiao knew it was not a dream, he was still very happy to see Xi Yunting. He walked towards Xi Yunting's direction, but tripped over the trouser legs wrapped around his ankles.

In a blink of an eye, Chen Ling was supported by Xi Yunting's arm. "Be careful, move slowly," he said softly.

Being so eager, with bare legs and no clothes underneath, made Chen Ling blush instantly.He struggled a bit, but failed to break free from the opponent's hand, so Xi Yunting pressed him to sit on the soft quilt.

Xi Yunting reached out and grabbed the tangled trousers, wanting to put them on for Chen Xiao.Chen Xiao hurriedly held down his hand: "Brother, I can do it myself." He is so old, it is too embarrassing for him to have his pants put on.

Xi Yunting didn't move much, but firmly pushed Chen Xiao's hand away. He lowered his eyes so that Chen Xiao couldn't see his expression clearly, "Let me do it, it's not convenient for you now."

What Xi Yunting said was the truth, Chen Xiao no longer insisted.

It was very quiet inside the curtain, so quiet that Chen Xiao could hear his own heartbeat.Xi Yunting dressed him silently and did not speak, but Chen Xiao was still immersed in the excitement and joy of reuniting with his lover, and couldn't hold back his excitement and wanted to talk to him.

"Brother, you came here in time yesterday. How did you know that I was in Yinjiantan and arrived in time?"

Xi Yunting looked up at him, his eyes were dark, with complex emotions that Chen Xiao couldn't understand.Before Chen Ling figured it out, he lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "I met Jing Hui, he asked me for help, and only then did he know your whereabouts, so he rushed over here immediately."

Xi Yunting's voice was a bit depressing, which made Chen Xiao's heart tremble. The excitement and joy seemed to have been poured with cold water, and it dissipated quite a bit.

Feeling scared for a while, fortunately Jing Hui listened to his words and asked for help when she met the right way.If he hadn't happened to meet Xi Yunting, the other party might not have been so concerned and could have arrived in time to save him.

"So that's it, it's really a coincidence." Chen Xiao murmured.Xi Yunting lowered his head and said "hmm" after a long while.

Chen Xiao was about to ask something more, when Xi Yunting dressed him, stood up and walked out, "You must be hungry after a day of sleep. I reckoned that you should wake up at this time, and I made you something to eat. You Wait a minute, I'll bring it over. You sit down first, don't get up."

When Chen Xiao was interrupted like this, she forgot what she wanted to say, and said "oh" obediently.

After a while, Xi Yunting came in with a small square Kang table, which was placed directly on the ground.Chen Xiao was sitting at the right height.

There are four side dishes for this meal, a bowl of white rice porridge boiled with oil.As soon as Chen Ling smelled the aroma of the food, her stomach screamed.

He was just about to touch the chopsticks on the table, but remembering that his left hand was not flexible, he went to grab a spoon instead.Unexpectedly, Xi Yunting moved one step faster than him, and had already picked up the spoon.

Chen Ling looked up at him in surprise, Xi Yunting looked at the dishes on the table, and said, "I'm short on time, I don't have any preparations, and the dishes are poorly made, which may not suit your taste. Which one do you want to eat?"

Besides helping him to dress, also feed him?Chen Xiao was flattered, and waved her hands: "No, no, no, your craftsmanship is so good, how could it be unappetizing. As long as it's made by you, it's a plate of green grass, and it's also a delicacy."

Normally, if Chen Xiao was so exaggerated, no matter how indifferent Xi Yunting's temperament was, he would be provoked into a smile, but today the corners of his lips just twitched, and he didn't even look at him.

No matter how Chen Ling was dazzled by the joy of reunion, he could sense something was wrong now, not to mention that he was not slow.

Overly courteous attitude, evasive eyes, dull mood... Chen Ling's heart sank.

He pretended to be relaxed and said: "Brother, we haven't seen each other for so long, don't you want to talk to me? I have a lot to say to you. Although I wrote a letter before, it has been a long time..." The feeling of missing was stirred up again, making Chen Xiao's throat choke.

Touched by his words, Chen Ling saw what Xi Yunting wanted to say, but still held back.

Chen Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Well, even if you don't want to talk to me, can you just look at me? Just look at me." As he spoke, his voice couldn't help shaking.

Xi Yunting's shoulders trembled, and he raised his eyes at once, looking at Chen Xiao's red eye circles, his uncontrollable emotions gushed out.

Chen Ling stared straight at those obsidian eyes, full of self-blame, regret and...sorrow.He asked quietly: "My right hand, is it impossible to heal?"

With a "crash", the kang table was knocked over, Xi Yunting hugged Chen Xiao tightly in his arms, "Don't think about it, Jing Hui is proficient in various healing spells, when we meet up, let him heal you, your arm will be It will be fine."

Chen Ling pressed his head against Xi Yunting's neck, feeling unprecedentedly sober.He didn't have confidence in what Xi Yunting said, otherwise he wouldn't have such a big reaction.

He raised his left arm and wrapped it around Xi Yunting's body.The only remaining half of the upper arm on the right side was also lifted up hard, making a tight hugging posture.

Xi Yunting's body was tense, Chen Ling hugged him for a while, and then he slowly relaxed.

Chen Xiao pushed gently, and Xi Yunting let him go.Chen Xiao looked up at him and asked, "Can you tell me what's going on?"

Xi Yunting tightly closed his lips, Chen Ling asked again, and then he said slowly: "Yesterday, while you were still asleep, I gave you the elixir for strengthening muscles and bones, but it didn't work."

Chen Xiao frowned and thought about it, Xi Yunting said: "The hemostasis and wounds healed quickly and smoothly. I thought that this pill would take effect soon after being used, but there was no response until the next morning .”

Chen Xiao asked: "What is the working process of this elixir?"

Xi Yunting saw that he grasped the point immediately, and said directly: "It's the spiritual power contained in the elixir, which penetrates into the body through the true essence meridian, and supplies energy to create new flesh and bones." Obviously, when Chen Xiao fell asleep, During this period of time, Xi Yunting has already figured out what to do.

But Chen Xiao didn't have the true essence meridian, and he just let the spiritual power escape from his body after taking the pill.

Chen Xiao is still lucky. His body has undergone the transformation of vitality, and his quality is similar to that of an immortal cultivator in the foundation period. If he were replaced by a mortal, his spiritual power would not dissipate, but burn him to death.

Chen Xiao nodded slowly, and asked again: "Then how does the detoxification pill that I took before work?"

Xi Yunting explained: "The detoxification pill works because it is refined from spiritual plants and relies on pharmacology. Unlike the kind that grows tendons and bones, it purely uses spiritual power."

Chen Xiaodao: "Speaking of it this way, spiritual pills such as Peiyuan Pill and Huiyuan Pill that cultivators can use will definitely not work for me."

What he was talking about were the two most common spiritual power pills in the world of cultivating immortals. One was to assist cultivation during cultivation, and the other was to replenish true essence during martial arts.I also know that he doesn't have the talent of spiritual root, so he can't cultivate the meridians that run energy. Naturally, this kind of elixir will not be of much use to him.

Xi Yunting said: "According to reason, it is so."

Chen Xiao pondered for a while, looked up at Xi Yunting with a sullen face, and hugged him with a smile: "Fortunately, I discovered it early, and I will prepare more medicinal pills in the future. Fortunately, Li and Zhou are pharmacists who are proficient in pharmacology. Let him do more when he goes back."

Xi Yunting reluctantly pulled the corners of his lips, and the trace of the smile disappeared before it could fully show.

Chen Ling sighed when he saw it, he changed from sitting to kneeling, and held Xi Yunting's head in his arms with his intact hands.

He said softly: "Brother, don't worry about it so much. In this world of cultivating immortals, no one has ever been injured. If you want to make a living in the long journey of immortality, isn't life and death already out of the question?"

Xi Yunting hugged his thin waist tightly, and pressed his face against Chen Ling's neck, "I regret... I shouldn't go back to Chongxuan for retreat. If I tell Master, I will stay in the Lord's Mansion of Yingxian Island." You won’t encounter such a thing if you go into seclusion. Or I’ll go back to the master’s gate and ask the masters to lend you a magic weapon to pick you up. Or even if I don’t delay for a moment, I’ll set off directly, and I won’t let you go. That's how it happened."

The pain and regret in his voice made Chen Xiao's heart ache like a needle prick.He didn't expect Xi Yunting to be more injured and sad than him without his arm this time.To be so weak that he can directly reveal these innermost thoughts, in the past, he would not have easily revealed them if he hadn't been forced to do so.

Chen Ling's heart softened to the point of confusion, and she said in a soft voice: "How can you blame this, no one would have thought that such a thing would happen."

Xi Yunting shook his head, Chen Ling felt that the place where he pressed on his skin started to get hot, and it became wet after a while.

Chen Ling wanted to see his face, but Xi Yunting refused to let go of the arm that was tightly restraining him, so that he could see his weak side.

Chen Xiao could only say: "Brother, I miss you so much, I want to kiss you."

Xi Yunting paused, raised his head for a while, and there was no sign of him having lost his composure at all.

Chen Ling couldn't help laughing, Xi Yunting's ears turned red when he saw it, and his eyes moved away.With a smile on her face, Chen Ling lowered her head to kiss him a long and lingering kiss.After the kiss was over, Chen Xiao gasped and said, "Let's do it."
