Fragrant honey stars

"Abai, I plan to take Xiaoqi out of here in a few days." She turned her head to look at him, smiled and explained, "Xiaoqi's soul was originally incomplete, but he managed to stabilize himself by forcibly merging my strength. Before dissipating, before the shell was broken, I slowly absorbed the spiritual power, but when I was reborn, I could only receive my chaotic power... The power on it is too complicated, and it is not very good to pinch it together. In the month he spent wandering around, he encountered two times when various powers in his body erupted out of control, almost... destroying himself. Now I can only set a restriction on him to seal his power. However, this After all, there is no way, so I thought..."

Chen Xing paused, but Runyu had already understood: "Miao Miao, do you want to take him to the island?"

"En." She nodded: "The island's natural restraint of spiritual power is more conducive to restraining his power riots and converting all of his power into one. He lost control of his power just a few days ago, and it was very dangerous. It's been a while since he's lost his soul, and he's been very weak for the past two days. It's better to seal his strength and rest for a few more days, and it's better for us to go to the island when he recovers. Besides...before going to the island, I have...some things to confirm .”

Runyu frowned and pursed her lips tightly, but she didn't interrupt or refute her words.

Just like to herself who used to be Bailong, now, she puts all her heart and soul into this little Qi, not a little bit.

"...is there any danger?"

Chen Xing knew that he was referring to something she said she wanted to confirm, so she pursed her lips and smiled, satisfied that he didn't interfere too much: "I have a sense of proportion."

Runyu looked at her, her brows did not relax: "If there is something... Miao Miao..."

Chen Xing laughed: "I know, I remember, there is still a contract between us, if there is any danger, I will use the contract to summon you."

He sighed and nodded slowly.

Chen Xing's smile deepened by two points, and he raised his hand to caress his frowning brows: "Ah Bai, I'm very happy, you... respect my decision."

He raised his hand, held the hand she caressed between his eyebrows in his own, and gently pulled it on his heart: "As long as Miao Miao won't hurt myself."

Chen Xing frowned: "This is your bottom line?"

"Yes."

"……I see."

In the next few days, the two got along as before, but something was different after all.The small courtyard, which was originally full of tacit understanding and warmth, has a little more sweet affection than before, and it flows in every eyebrow and eye meeting.

only……

Runyu stood aside, watching with a blank face as she gradually regained her spirits. She didn't know how many times he ran over when he wanted to get close to Chen Xing, and Xiao Qi, who was acting like a spoiled child in Chen Xing's arms, silently clenched his fists.

The black and white cub was carefully held in Chen Xing's arms, stroking his soft hair, squinting his emerald eyes, and humming comfortably under her palm.Standing two steps away, Runyu had to take back the arm that was about to wrap around her shoulder a moment ago, amidst her pampering Xiaoqi and her somewhat gloating ignorance of herself, she grew helplessly. Let out a long sigh.

Hearing Runyu's sigh, Chen Xing raised his head together with Xiao Qi in her arms.Chen Xing pursed her lips to suppress the smile on her face, and blinked at him, looking very innocent.And Xiao Qi in her arms stared at Runyu with his drowsy eyes, bared his teeth at him, then turned back into Chen Xing's arms, and pointed his butt at Runyu. Yu, closed his eyes and fell asleep obediently.

When Chen Xing put Xiao Qi, who had fallen asleep again, back out of the room, Runyu really stood by the door of her room with his hands behind his back. When she saw her coming out, she immediately looked over. The darkness in the brightness made her feel a little guilty. .

She stepped forward, tugged at his sleeve, and tiptoed to kiss him lightly on the cheek.

He felt the soft touch on his cheeks, and the light in his eyes softened. After all, he just sighed and reached out to hold her in his arms.

He buried his face in her neck, felt her raise her arms around his waist, hugged him like this for a long time, and sighed softly:

"Leaving tomorrow?"

"……Um."

"... Miao Miao remembers... Be careful in everything."

"Well, I know." She let out a breath and rubbed against his chest: "Don't worry about me, just go about your business."

There was something in Runyu's eyes that had been firmly established for a long time, and at this moment it lit up again following her words.

She meant to go alone, and he didn't offer to go with her.

Neither of them explained to each other, but they could understand each other.

She has her plans, and he has his responsibilities.She has things to figure out, and he has things to accomplish.

After a while, he lightly held her shoulders and pulled her up from his arms, leaned up against her forehead, moved his hands from her shoulders to the sides of her cheeks, and held her gently, staring fixedly at her. Her eyes: "Miao Miao, wait for me... okay?"

Seeing the seriousness and firmness in his eyes, she felt warm and nodded slightly.

Chenxing chose to leave at the dawn of the morning.

When she left, Xiao Qi in her arms was still a little dazed.Runyu watched her back as she stepped out of the small courtyard step by step, but she felt completely different from the time more than a month ago.

only……

He silently clenched his palms tightly.

He knew very well in his heart that now, he could not let her feel at ease, and was willing to go back to the heaven with him.He knew her concerns and understood her decision, but... couldn't help feeling uneasy and apprehensive.

Runyu knew that he still had a lot of things to consider.

After Chen Xing left the small courtyard, he cast a few magic spells on Xiao Qiduo just in case, then hugged him and went all the way to the place she had been to once, Wang Chuan.

On the bank of the Wangchuan River, Chen Xing graciously hugged Xiao Qi who was staying in his arms, and walked towards the only ferry boat.

The boatman was not surprised when he raised his eyes to see Chen Xing, but his eyes flickered when he saw Xiao Qi in her arms.

"Girl, come on the boat again?"

Chen Xing pursed her lips and smiled: "Yeah, I came here before and felt that I gained a lot. This time, I still want to take the old man's boat and take a stroll in Wangchuan."

The boatman laughed: "Girl, this Wangchuan is a dangerous place. It's the first time I've seen it. Some people use it as a place to play."

Chen Xing stroked Xiao Qi's soft hair in his arms, and without much explanation, he just asked, "Then, would the old man be willing to give me a ride?"

The boatman stepped aside: "Girl, let's get on the boat."

Chen Xing hugged Xiao Qi who was looking around curiously and sat on the small boat, watching the boatman row the oars skillfully, holding Xiao Qi on his knee with one hand, and propping his chin with the other: "I remember when I came back last time I just asked, and the old man said that he didn't remember how long he had been here, and at that time, he felt that the old man was not simple, as if...knows a lot of things."

The boatman replied with a smile: "This man has lived for a long time, has seen a lot, and knows a lot, so naturally he will know a lot."

"Then...does the old man know that the Wangchuan River, which flows into the dark, has a passage leading to other places?"

The boatman's eyes narrowed: "Miss, don't you know it well?"

Seeing that he didn't deny it, Chen Xing thought for a while and raised his hand to take some water on his palm. Sure enough, he saw that the boatman paused and sighed slightly.

The water that Chen Xing took out was exactly the water in the deep pool on that island.Last time, relying on the divination of this pool of water, she found the edge of the River of Forgetfulness.It's just that at that time, although I already felt that there was something strange about the boatman, I picked up Xiao Qi who was about to lose his soul before I had time to think about it, and then rushed to treat him, without any other thoughts.Thinking about it now, the look in the boatman's eyes when he saw her bleeding was very unusual.

"Old man, this water... can I sprinkle it in the river of forgetfulness?"

Hearing her question, the boatman was silent for a moment, and sighed: "The old man has already noticed it when we met last time. Girl, the power you bear is all-encompassing, and it is not from the way of heaven here. The fate is not in the horoscope. .”

Chen Xing's eyes flickered, and he withdrew the pool of water he was holding in his palm: "The old man is overwhelmed."

The boatman was still pushing the oars, and the boat moved slowly on the River of Forgetfulness: "Girl, do you want to ask about that island?"

"That's right." Chen Xing nodded, and touched Xiao Qi in his arms: "For the first time, I entered it by mistake, and I didn't feel any difference at the time, but later... the more I understand the extraordinaryness of that small island, The more I feel uneasy. If it is the master's thing, I took a lot of elixir and spirit herbs without asking. It is really wrong. Even if the master doesn't pursue it, I will feel sorry. Besides... I am also a little worried , What is the purpose of the island, and I accidentally destroyed something. But there are no clues on the island, and I chased Wangchuan along the water on the island. It seems that only you, the old man, can clear up my doubts. .”

"Heh." The boatman smiled: "That island...has become an ownerless thing many years ago. Since the girl has this fate, she took it away."

Chen Xing noticed that what he said was "becoming" the ownerless thing, not "it was" the ownerless thing.After thinking for a while, she asked, "The previous owner of this island...was the former owner of the fire seed?"

The boatman gave her a slightly surprised look, and did not hide it: "That's right. The offshoot of Wanling Guyi, even a small cluster of machine-washing fires, cannot be easily controlled by others. The former owner got this fire but Unexpectedly, he could not be suppressed or subdued by spiritual power. When he returned to heaven and earth, the fire remained. Many restrictions on the island were gradually generated by this cluster of sky fire to protect himself. Now that the fire has been subdued by the girl , has even... merged with something else, and it is quite different from the past. In this case, if the girl does not do anything to this island, the restriction will be broken by itself. It is just that this island is full of spiritual power, so it is not suitable The mortal world, I am afraid that it will slowly be separated from the mortal world and return to the land of the fairy family."

"Wan Ling Gu Yi? Chen Xing was taken aback. She really didn't expect that the kindling that she had inadvertently subdued, or in other words refined her own Star Orb, would be so powerful. As for the island being stripped from the mortal world, she didn't know." Very surprised.

The boatman laughed: "It's not Wanling Guyi, it's just some kind of entangled fire. If it is really Wanling Guyi...even with the girl's identity and power, she can't be subdued."

Chen Xing nodded: "Thank you, old man, for telling me. This way, I feel much more at ease. But...the deep pool on the island, why is it the same as Wangchuan..."

The boatman looked farther away: "The fire of vitality that does not recognize the master is completely out of control. If the power of the netherworld that has no death is combined, how can it be suppressed for a long time? I just don't know... who discovered this? For related things, I even made up a formation to force the connection between the two places... But, it’s okay in the future! Since the fire is gone, the power of connection will slowly dissipate.”

The small boat floated on the River of Forgetfulness, and finally sent Chen Xing back to the place where she boarded the boat.

As Chen Xing said, the boatman did not go to the Demon Realm with her, but only circled in the River of Forgetfulness.

Before jumping off the boat with Xiao Qi in his arms, Chen Xing still asked the boatman: "I wonder if the old man knows the name of the owner of the island? Since Chen Xing inherited what he left, why should he set up a memorial plaque for him?"

The boatman smiled: "I don't know how many years have passed since I returned to heaven and earth, these things are no longer important. It is also a merit to pass on to future generations. Some things are not good at doing things, and it is enough for the girl to have this intention." .”

Chen Xing was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "So, Chen Xing understands, thank you old man."

The boatman took another look at Xiao Qi in her arms: "Rejuvenate, wash away karma, girl...it's easy to use."

"Thank you." Chen Xing nodded, and before leaving, he couldn't help asking: "Chen Xing once read something... The Lord of the Underworld is the Great Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu, the sect of ghosts in the world, I don't know the old man... But the Emperor Which subordinate belongs to?"

The boatman smiled, with a deep expression on his face: "The Nether world is never revealed to people from the Six Realms, and who knows what happened during it? As for the old man... it's just a boatman on the bank of the Wangchuan River. .”

Chen Xing smiled, nodded and said: "The old man is right. If that's the case, thank you for the old man's clarification today, so... I will take my leave."

The boatman stood at the bow of the boat, looked at the back of Chen Xing, and sighed with a smile: "Interesting..."

The author has something to say:

The matter of the island (restricted and connected to Wangchuan) is finally explained~

The kindling of Fanwaixing can rejuvenate and wash away karma, so it can strip away the curse of Runyu Yuanling, and can also slowly dissipate the evil spirit on Qiongqi~~

(PS: Emperor Fengdu and Wanling Guyi are private creations, please pat~ But I really think this boatman is not a simple character, he knows everything, and Wangchuan is just such a ferryman, he can ferry here So many years...)

Finally, today is Saturday, the old rules~
