Taoist Xuanqing caressed Lu Tingqin's heart, causing the jade tablet to emit cold spiritual power.

Lu Tingqin seemed to be immersed in an ice cellar.Taoist Xuanqing's power steadily covered his heart, forcing the surging devilish energy to retreat layer by layer, shrinking into dark seeds.

"Listen to the piano, are you feeling better?"

Lu Tingqin didn't make a sound.After a while, the pain in his heart subsided, and he gradually saw the light in front of his eyes, and said hoarsely to Taoist Xuanqing, "It's done."

"What kind of pain is it this time, and what are the symptoms?" Taoist Xuanqing made way for Lu Tingqin to sit in front of the low table.

Lu Tingqin heard the sound of clothes rubbing against the door.He closed his eyes, and vaguely felt a group of black-gold light outside the door, which belonged to the power of Heavy Frost.

Chongshuang hadn't left yet, and was listening with bated breath at the door.

Lu Tingqin said to Taoist Xuanqing through voice transmission: "Tear."

Taoist Xuanqing's smile restrained a little, "Could you be more detailed, I want to judge the degree of the erosion of the devil energy."

"Chongshuang, go back." Lu Tingqin frowned, he didn't want to complain in front of the juniors, so he deliberately amplified his voice, "Is this something a disciple should hear?"

There was a moment of silence outside the door, and Lu Tingqin heard a low voice, "Master forgives your sins, this disciple will leave", followed by the sound of footsteps.

Lu Tingqin dawdled for a while, and was defeated by Taoist Xuanqing's eyes, "The pain that splits outward from one point, the five senses are affected, breathing can't keep up, and there is a little numbness in the limbs. Master's spirit It'll be fine once you get your strength up."

Taoist Xuanqing finished outputting the last spiritual power to the jade tablet with his hand, and slowly put it down, "My spiritual power is not a panacea, Tingqin, how many times have you had seizures since you came?"

Lu Tingqin was silent, it was difficult for him to answer this question.

There are different degrees of manifestations of demonic attacks. The most painful time was the two times when he just passed through. He heard whispers that made people crazy, and his whole body seemed to be torn apart; , He didn't hear the whispers, his heart hurts, his eyes turned black; the mildest one is when he uses light work or draws runes, after he concentrates, he will have a slight dizziness, which will disappear after a while.

Speaking of which, after the last high fever, he has always felt a faint sense of powerlessness in his body, and his forehead throbbed from time to time.If this is considered a seizure, he does it almost every day.However, this slight discomfort can be ignored.

Taoist Xuanqing waited for a while, then changed the question, "You couldn't see for a while just now, did you have this symptom before?"

Lu Tingqin remained silent, he didn't want to answer this question.

Li San had warned that the continued erosion of demon energy would affect hearing and vision, and eventually he would lose his mind, but Lu Tingqin didn't take it seriously.He will prioritize things, and Chongshuang's priority must be the highest. As for other consequences, they are all possibilities.He will not stop the things that must be done at present because of probabilities.

If magic energy really affects vision, will Taoist Xuanqing stop him?He has already arrived at the gate of the Dragon Palace, and the dragon core can be refined two or three times to reach a perfect state, he does not want to fall short.

Taoist Xuanqing waited for a while, recalling the familiar feeling of talking to the air.When the Falling Moon Immortal was around, their conversation was basically like this.Ten sentences from Xuanqing Taoist, half a sentence from Falling Moon Immortal Venerable.

Taoist Xuanqing has the bleakness of a lonely old man, "Listen to the piano, don't always think about things in your heart, can you talk to Master more?"

Lu Tingqin nodded obediently, "Okay."

"Sansan should have told you that the degree of demon energy erosion is deepening. Although there is a jade card to suppress the outbreak, it is not a long-term solution. As long as a solution is not found, this erosion will continue day by day until ..." Taoist Xuanqing's voice paused.

Lu Tingqin took it for him: "Until I die."

There was a long silence in the room.Lu Tingqin felt uneasy, and casually plucked the strings of the guqin, making a sound to break the silence.

"Time is destiny, master." Lu Tingqin comforted.

"It's my fault." Taoist Xuanqing said suddenly.

"Master?"

"When I picked up Qin'er, I was in a remote village. The monsters attacked the village, dead and crazy, and Qin'er was injured. He was still a child at that time, but his mind was extremely tenacious, and he resisted. The surviving villagers were afraid that he would go crazy, but they didn't dare to kill him, so they threw him and other half-melted corpses into the pit in front of the cliff."

Lu Tingqin clenched her fingers silently.

Taoist Xuanqing said: "I have never seen a person who is still conscious after being attacked by a monster. I tried all known methods to suppress the demonic energy in his heart, but it didn't work. He was getting more and more painful. Finally, it hit my sword. In desperation, I took out the Wuxin Stone."

Heartless stone?

Lu Tingqin remembered this.Li San mentioned that the Wuxin Stone has completely merged with his heart.He didn't know what it was at the time, so Taoist Xuanqing put it in?

"What is Wuxin Stone?" Lu Tingqin touched her heart.

"A stone that should be worn by Ying Yan fell into the storage cabinet of the Asgard. I accidentally discovered that this stone has the effect of purifying pollution, so I always carry it with me. But it is something of unknown origin after all. Before the source, it should not be used lightly. After I took it out, just close to the wound on Qin'er's chest, the Heartless Stone came out of my hand and merged with the wound."

"The devilish energy gathers in the Wuxin stone like water and takes root in the heart. The good thing is that Qin'er survived, and I can suppress the devilish energy in him by suppressing the Wuxin stone...but he has been living in pain ever since. "

No matter how tough a young child is, he can't resist the pollution in his heart.The devilish energy searched for every pore, bewitching Taoist Xuanqing's mind when he was looking for a solution outside.

"In the earliest days, I thought I had suppressed the devilish energy, so I focused on running outside. When I found out that something was wrong, Qin'er was already affected, and she didn't want to talk to me. He asked why I took out this stone at that time."

"But because of this stone, he survived." Lu Tingqin murmured, "Isn't survival the most important thing?"

Taoist Xuanqing smiled sadly, "So Tingqin, can you give Master a chance to take care of yourself and try to survive?"

"Now Ying Yan is the clue. I will start with him and find a solution from the source of the devilish energy. Now, the degree of erosion of the devilish energy on your body is deepening. Every time it occurs, the suppressing effect of the jade card will decrease a little. Can you help me?" Whether it’s the child or doing other things, we must do what we can.”

"I..." Lu Tingqin didn't expect Taoist Xuanqing to be waiting for him here, "This is different. I was originally..."

Lu Tingqin paused.He met Taoist Shangxuanqing's gaze, lowered his head, and agreed not quite sincerely: "Okay."

Tianzi No. [-] room.

Chongshuang helped Lu Tingqin make the room warm and proper.He subtracted the extravagant decorations that Lu Tingqin might not like, and replaced them with elegant orchids.The quilt was re-laid, warmed with spiritual power, and a gray and white rabbit ball pillow was quietly placed on the bed.

After tidying up, he sat in the cubicle and heated the hot water over and over again to keep the bath at a suitable temperature.

Click, the door opened.

Heavy frost greets them.Seeing Lu Tingqin's pale face, his heart tightened, "Master, the water has been put in place and is ready for use at any time. Disciple is waiting at the door. If you need anything, please give me instructions."

"You go out... Forget it, you can stay here today, you don't need to look elsewhere." Lu Tingqin said.

Tianzi No. [-] room is the room below the top floor.When Ji He's wine shop was designed and built, the top two floors of the building were dedicated to the immortals in the Xuanqing Gate. It covers a large area and is equipped with two side rooms for the accompanying disciples to live in.

Lu Tingqin didn't want to live under the same roof with others, but she also didn't want Chongshuang to squat and think about it all by herself.He waved his hand to signal Chongshuang to take a rest, and he went into the bathroom exhausted.

Tempering the keel is like doing a high-intensity and high-precision experiment for 48 hours in a row. Lu Tingqin suspects that even if he doesn't have magic energy in his body, it will be too much to do it twice.

Although Chongshuang is a human-dragon hybrid, he is very talented.As the tempering deepens, his bones will explode into greater and greater strength until they become a complete dragon core.Only then can he truly possess his complete power.

Lu Tingqin also thought about whether Chongshuang could break through a path of transformation if he let go and did nothing.Maybe, but Lu Tingqin didn't dare to gamble with his life on this possibility.After he crossed over, he affected too many things, and he thought it was his responsibility to ensure that Chongshuang walked down alive and well.

Lu Tingqin put aside the messy deduction in his mind, and put away his robe.He entered the pool tentatively, putting his shoulders under the surface.

The warm water vapor dispelled the chill in Lu Tingqin's body, he sighed comfortably, watched the black hair floating on the water, flicked it casually twice, fell asleep.

I don't know how long it took, but a few soft calls woke him up.

"Master... Master?"

Lu Tingqin's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she opened her eyes.The bath is filled with steaming water vapor, and the night pearl is faintly shining.

Lu Tingqin's cheeks flushed slightly from the soak, and her body was a little hot.He stretched out a white arm, put it on the edge of the stone surface of the bath, and replied vaguely: "What's the matter?"

Chongshuang's voice sounded outside the door through the fog: "Master hasn't come out for a long time, this disciple is a little worried...Does Master want to drink some warm water?"

"Make it cooler, bring it in." Lu Tingqin was fine at first, but when she asked, she suddenly became thirsty.

"Yes."

Lu Tingqin noticed that Chongshuang took a soft breath.

What, have never been in a public bathroom, don't you want to watch your elders take a bath?Lu Tingqin's fingertips were placed on the slightly cool stone surface, and after a while it became a bit cold, then returned to the water, sparkling.

The heavy frost came fast, and there was a light knock on the bathroom door.

"Come in." Lu Tingqin heard the knock on the door as if he hadn't eaten, and felt more and more that there seemed to be a scourge in the door in Zhongshuang's eyes, "...you can leave it outside if you don't want to. I will go out in a while. "

"Master, forgive me." Chongshuang replied like a mosquito.Holding a tea cup filled with cold water, he opened the door carefully, staring at the ground all the way into the bathroom.

He saw that among the wooden boxes scattered on the ground, there were hair belts, belts and footwear for Lu Tingqin.Lu Tingqin's white robe was draped over the chair, with a corner hanging down.

"Huh?" Through the steaming mist, Lu Tingqin heard Chongshuang's abnormally fast heartbeat.

"Master, the water is on the small table."

As Chongshuang bent over, he caught sight of Lu Tingqin's shoulders as white as moonlight, exposed between the loose black hair in his vision.Holding his breath, he backed away on one hand and one foot.

After Lu Tingqin finished bathing and went inside to rest, Chongshuang recovered from the trance brought by the moonlight.

In the middle of the night, Chongshuang tiptoed back to the bathroom.

The fog had cleared and the pool was calm.The light of the luminous pearl is reflected in the water, like a cold moon.Chongshuang sat by the pool for a long time, stretched out her fingertips, and tremblingly plunged into the water, touching the cool moonlight.
