smile to heart

======================

It was late at night when we returned to Jiugai Mountain.

After a heart-wrenching farewell, both eyes were completely blind, not only the medicine was useless, but even the infection of the devil energy could no longer restore Qi Zhong's eyesight.He had to get used to the dark again.

Min Zhi sat under the steps outside the hall, quietly waiting for him to approach.

Qi Zhong stood still, feeling her gaze, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "You, haven't you left yet?"

Min Zhi pinched the palm of his hand, angry and hated at him, the question pressed in his throat, after inner conflict, turned into a soft voice of concern: "Are you hungry? I'll cook a bowl of noodles for you."

Qi Zhong was moved, and hastily declined: "No, I'm not hungry."

The two stood silently for a while.

"Go down the mountain tomorrow, and from now on...don't come to me again."

Min Zhi had a sore nose, and while he couldn't see, she blinked her red eyes: "Then our agreement still counts?"

"What agreement?" Qi Zhong was exhausted, his memory was blurred, and he couldn't think of it for a while.

Min Zhi's eyes dimmed for a moment, and she laughed at herself.After she calmed down, she said seriously, "Ten days. In ten days, it will be the full fifteenth month. I will leave that night, and the road will be brighter."

Qi finally sank his mind. In ten days, it will be the deadline for the Hundred Days to break the body, and it will also be the time for the Hundred-Family Sect Alliance to attack the mountain... Min Zhi chose to leave at that time, and it can be regarded as accompanying him to the end. Such affection, It was hard not to be moved, so he finally had to slowly nod his head and agree.

In the last ten days of the world, Qi finally could not see any scenery, nor could his ears be quiet.He groped out of the palace door when he heard a crackling sound above his head.Knowing that Min Zhi was thinking of a way to destroy the golden characters of miracles that suddenly appeared above the Judgment Hall.

The content of the golden letter is inexplicable, it is just a cursed demon.If it is not eliminated, Tongjiang will be destroyed.It is enough to cause turmoil in the entire upper Xinjiang, and this is also the reason why the Baijia Huimeng attacked the mountain.After all, the fear of imminent catastrophe oppressed everyone's heart, and everyone hoped that he could quickly apologise.

Qi Zhong sighed, God's will is so, and people's hearts are so.Not to mention that there is a risk of breaking his body with evil thoughts for a hundred days, even if he lives after this catastrophe, it will be meaningless.

He suddenly looked up intuitively, the sun was shining on his cheeks, bright and comfortable.

Min Zhi turned down the eaves, confused by his behavior of looking straight at the sun, was about to ask, but remembered his blindness, and felt relieved for a moment.

He stepped forward and said, "Tomorrow night... I'm leaving. Do you have anything to say to me?"

Qi Zhong slowly turned sideways, contemplating for a long time, and said: "Treasure!"

Frowning, Min Zhi stared at him for a while, then smiled suddenly: "I'll ask again tomorrow night."

"..." Qi Mo wanted to say something, but felt the voice around him gradually go away.

Fengmei sat on the rattan chair by the window, propped her forehead with one hand, watched the tung flowers falling outside the window, her heart gradually became more and more serious, tonight is the deadline for attacking the mountain, and I hope there will be no other variables.

Just as he was meditating, a lavender figure entered the door lightly.

Before Fang Yanxiao entered the room, she purposely covered her haggard face with powder in the room to ensure that she didn't look so sick.

The pain of being backlashed by the line spirit has penetrated into her bone marrow, she knew that she was dying, even if Feng Mei had excellent medical skills, she couldn't change her fate against the sky.These days, when he was so busy, he intentionally concealed his illness, and he already felt ashamed in his heart, but now that parting is imminent, Fang Yanxiao couldn't help but grieve when she saw Feng Mei sitting beside the medical books in a daze.

After learning about Qi Zhong's situation from Min Zhi, Fang Yanxiao knew that Feng Mei would be troubled by this matter, but she couldn't change anything, but sacrificing a marriage that she longed for for nine generations, in exchange for the final stability of her loved ones, also Not a bad deal.

Calm and in a good mood, Fang Yanxiao smiled softly and called softly: "Master Medical Saint..."

"Xiaoxiao, you're here."

Feng Mei quickly regained consciousness, turned her back to her, straightened her sad face twice, and then turned back with a smile. Seeing that she was wearing a lavender dress, she was extraordinarily graceful and radiant. She mistakenly thought that her illness had been brought under control recently. It looks so comfortable.

Thinking of what she said at the beginning, she had no choice but to kill, and didn’t like blood, so she often wore red clothes and forced herself to get used to it. Fengmei felt distressed for a moment, and took the initiative to go forward and praised: "This purple dress suits your temperament very well, look at it." Come on, I have a good eye for fabrics..."

Fang Yanxiao's smile deepened, and she said shallowly, "Yes."

She stepped forward vaguely, smiling, and Xian Hui straightened the wrinkles on his collar.

"What was your lord thinking just now? It looks very disturbing."

Feng Mei's hanging hands were trembling, resisting the crime of deceiving her, and said softly: "No. I'm just tired of reading."

Fang Yanxiao lowered her eyes, and a trace of sadness flashed: "Then let me talk to you for a while."

Feng Mei's heart was moved, she hugged her silently, feeling attached and guilty.

A hug made Fang Yanxiao's tears unstoppable. She hastily raised her already cold hands to wipe away the tears, lest she wet the clothes on his shoulders.

"Xiaoxiao." Feng Mei's voice was slightly choked up.

"Ok?"

With the same crying voice, she couldn't hear the difference between each other's voices.

"I'm going to do one thing, which is very important. Maybe...maybe I'll leave you for a while, wait for me..."

"what's up?"

Knowing the result, she still wanted to ask.Are you looking forward to the cruel truth, or the deception against your will?She herself does not know.

"It's a very important thing, I have to do it. After this thing is over, we will travel around the world. Didn't you say last time that you want to see the sea of ​​flowers in Nanxi and the waterfall in Qinyun? After all these chores, I will accompany you, accompany you..."

The little face leaning on his shoulder was full of tears, and her heart suddenly became dark: Feng Mei, until now, you are still hiding it from me.Why, why are you, going to kill my dearest person?

Tears full of regret slipped down the corners of her eyes, Feng Mei's eyes were empty, and she lamented in her heart: I'm sorry, only this time, I only lied to you this time.

"Xiaoxiao. If I do something wrong again one day, don't hate me, okay? And don't leave without saying a word, okay?"

Not getting her reply for a long time, Feng Mei flustered, whispering as if talking to herself.

"Then you first promise me a wish... If you do it, I will promise you."

Fang Yanxiao's eyes were slightly dry, and she replied in a hoarse voice.

"What wish? I will do it!"

He was extremely anxious, grasping this last ray of hope.

"Well... haven't made up my mind yet. In short, you owe me a wish. Don't deny it."

"Good! Good! As long as you don't get angry with me, I promise you!"

He calmed down and found a way to make himself less guilty.

The night was dark and the wind was howling.

There was a sound of battle at the foot of Jiugai Mountain, but there was silence in the main hall on the top of the mountain.

Min Zhite came to say goodbye, and saw Qi Zhong resting on the sandalwood table with one hand, dozing off.

She sneered, pretending to be relaxed and said, "This time, I'm really leaving. I'll ask you again, do you have anything to say to me?"

"You can go on the path behind the mountain. The mountain is too chaotic. I have arranged heavy guards for you along the road until the foot of the mountain. Nothing will happen."

"You are thoughtful...but do you have anything else to say?" Min Zhi smiled bitterly.

After a pause, Qi Zhong suddenly said in a serious tone: "... Ah Zhi. Thank you."

"...Is it gone?" Tears fell to the ground silently, and Min Zhi looked forward to him, wishing for the last time.

Qi Zhong silently turned away.

Min Zhi turned around with tears in her eyes, her heart sank: You forgot to say goodbye to me, goodbye!Or do you not want to see each other at all?

The last time he went out, Min Zhi was very light-footed, trying not to make a sound.

Outside the hall, Fang Yanxiao waited for a long time, and finally saw Min Zhi's figure, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull her over, her voice revealing a powerless voice: "He..."

Min Zhi blinked her bright red eyes, looked at her with a pale face, and frowned: "He told me to go, he is the only one left in the palace now...you go in and see him."

"Okay. Thank you." Fang Yanxiao's gloomy eyes were filled with excitement and hope, she eagerly loosened Min Zhi's sleeves, and leaned against the wall to enter the palace.

Min Zhi gave her a hand, and asked blankly, "You, why are your hands so cold?"

Fang Yanxiao smiled wryly: "I... am running out of time. I just want to see him one last time."

"This is for you." Min Zhi nodded sympathetically, and handed her a beautiful box.

Fang Yanxiao opened it and saw that it was a colorful bead. She was confused: "This is..."

"Jiang Sheng Pill. It can make flesh and bones, heal hundreds of wounds, and bring the dead back to life. You only thought about giving him your eyes, but you forgot that his eyes were injured by the poisonous powder before. After so long, they have deteriorated." Now, forcibly changing the eyes may cause him pain. If you feed this to him, there will be no pain at all.”

After Min Zhi finished speaking lightly, she gave her a relieved smile, and said, "Sister Fang, I'm sorry..."

Shaking her head, Fang Yanxiao looked at Min Zhi sadly, and couldn't bear it for a while: "Sister, what I owe you, Xiao Jin and I will pay back in the next life."

Min Zhi smiled faintly, shook his head and said, "If he refuses to eat it, you can lie to him and say it's glass candy..."

In silence, the person has left in the hurricane.Fang Yanxiao wiped away her tears, her heart was firm, she cheered up a little bit of joy, and slowly entered the hall.

In the deserted hall, Qi Zhong sat alone on the high seat in a daze.After losing his light, his ears became extremely sensitive, and when he heard the faint footsteps, he immediately became alert.

"Who? Yes, is it Azhi? Are you back?"

During the questioning, there was a hazy fragrance of crabapple flowers in the air beside him.The visitor gently gave a pink and white crabapple flower to his empty hand.

Qi Zhong's heart was agitated immediately, he was dumbfounded, and only heard her say: "The crabapple that Xiaojin asked her sister to pick for you back then is now in your hands."

"Atang...Sister?" Childhood memories came to mind, and Qi Zhong suddenly felt a headache, thinking of the past, the scene of the pink and white crabapple tree under the corner of the wall opening and losing alone in the cold rain and bright sun.He was standing under the tree, Fang Tang smiled and plucked the flower branch for him...

In desperation, tears suddenly poured down, and before he had time to confirm, he was already caught in the emotions of joy and sorrow. He thought, even if it was an illusion or a dream, he still had to hold on to this rare moment of warmth.

"Sister Atang! I miss you so much!"

Stumbling around the edge of the table, he groped to grab Fang Yanxiao's hand, expressing his longing for his family, but Fang Yanxiao sideways avoided, she was afraid that her already cold hands would not be able to give him extra warmth.

With a sad expression on her face, she patiently comforted her: "Xiaojin. My sister wants you to take a good look at my sister. You can obediently eat this candy, and you will see the light again..."

Qi Mo didn't doubt that he was there, the pressure of the days had already made his thoughts dizzy, he didn't care whether it was true or not, he took the Jiangsheng Pill, and stuffed it in his throat, after swallowing it, he suddenly felt relaxed and just wanted to faint sleep.

Fang Yanxiao grasped the last trace of spiritual power, helped him back to the seat, and carefully performed the eye-changing technique according to Feng Mei's medical book, leaving the last light to him.
