smile to heart

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

The forest in Kuocang Mountain has been cleared away. A pair of cold eyes on the top of the mountain watched the figures fleeing at the foot of the mountain, and sighed sullenly: "Luo Qingchen, look at the current situation. Your perfect layout made two people fall into the wilderness. The rest of the people came out of the mountain safely..."

Shaking the fan, Luo Qingchen replied casually: "I said Fang Yueshi, please calm down first, two people are also human beings, both are enemies, and killing one is one."

Fang Yanxiao sneered: "You know exactly what I mean. Can the life and death of two people affect the attention of the whole of Shangjiang? I'm afraid that this matter will be nothing for the two sides. Pity the two scapegoats, I don’t even understand death.”

"Then does Fang Yueshi sympathize with these two people? Or does he sympathize with me who has not completed the task and is about to be condemned?"

Fang Yanxiao frowned: "There are ancient monsters domesticated in the Great Desolation Territory. I'm afraid they are more dangerous than good. I can't call it sympathy, but I feel sorry. After all, they all sacrificed their lives for their companions, but in the end..."

"Are you worried that the Immortal Master of Jiugao Mountain will not pay attention to the existence of these two people and cannot be used as a condition for our negotiation?"

Luo Qingchen put away his folding fan and analyzed carefully: "However, throwing a stone into the water will cause ripples instead of waves. These two people have special identities, and the Immortal Venerable will not sit idly by. Whether they can survive depends on whether the Divine Venerable sends them Lost."

"You... have no way to persuade?" Fang Yanxiao asked cautiously.

Luo Qingchen frowned lightly: "Emissary Fang Yue cares about them so much, do you have any thoughts?"

"I just think it's so cruel. The feeling of being abandoned...you don't understand."

The hand holding the fan paused coldly, and Luo Qingchen said with a sarcasm: "I'm surprised that a killer can say the word cruel. As victims of the power struggle, no matter how miserable they die, they will be with you and me." It has nothing to do with it. Fang Yueshi, think carefully about what the gods are dissatisfied with you these days. Benevolence is not something we can have..."

"I see, thanks for the reminder."

Fang Yanxiao sighed softly, turned and left.

In the wind, a sudden burst of smoke curled up and dyed the hanging sleeves.

Luo Qingchen closed his eyes and said, "Come out."

Hearing the sound, a thin man in a black cloak timidly came out from behind the curtain, walked up to Luo Qingchen, and remained silent.

"Why are your hands so cold?" Luo Qingchen asked lightly.

Xi Yan was flattered immediately, and whispered: "The wind, the wind blows."

"Oh? Then do you hate these winds?"

A sentence that contained neither joy nor anger caused Xi Yan to hesitate for a moment, and said, "I don't hate it, and I don't like it either."

"Heh." Luo Qingchen smiled lightly, but his eyes were devoid of emotion, "I have an old friend who used to be as weak and delicate as you, but whenever I saw him, he always stood in the wind... ..."

"I asked him at the time, do you like wind? Guess how he replied to me..."

The face under the cloak turned pale, and his skinny hands clenched unwillingly. Xi Yan pretended to be dazed: "I don't know."

The smile on the corner of Luo Qingchen's mouth froze, and he was slightly sullen: "Then don't guess. It's a disappointment."

He said that he could hear my footsteps in the wind, and would wait for me forever... But, did he really wait?

The bewildered figure gradually dimmed in the eyes under the cloak.Knowing the person Luo Qingchen said, Xi Yan felt unwilling and jealous.

In the Great Wilderness, the yellow sand spreads down endlessly, and the oncoming hot wind, like a red hot iron, rubs the cheeks sorely.

The scorching sun hurt the eyes that had been sleeping for a long time.Qi Zhong held back the hot sun, slowly opened his eyes, and said softly, "Where is this?"

"I don't know." The person carrying him couldn't wipe his sweat, but focused on answering his question.

Qi Zhong was startled to realize that he hadn't moved, raised his head, and found that when he just woke up, he was drowsy and unconscious. In fact, when he was unconscious, he kept his face on Mu Yun's right shoulder.

"You... How long have you been carrying me? Let me down first."

He became more rational, and he hastily tried to persuade him, considering that the person carrying him was also injured.

Mu Yun sighed softly, put him down on the ground, lowered his long eyelashes that were wet with sweat, hiding the unbearable fatigue in his eyes.

The clothes are yellow and sandy, and the long fluttering hair is messy and loose on the shoulders.Qi Zhong looked at the beads of sweat dripping down his cheeks one by one along the long neck and over the tough collarbone line, obviously it was so hot that it was about to evaporate.

He remembered hearing from the servants of the Mu Mansion that Mu Yun was afraid of the cold and heat since he was a child, and he probably rarely stayed in such extreme weather.Now, dragging his weak and injured body, he carried him for such a long distance.

Feeling guilty and distressed, Qi Zhong unconsciously took out the brocade handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Mu Yun, who was on the verge of heat stroke, suddenly felt a ray of coolness pass by, looked up, subconsciously turned his head to hide, and whispered: "No need to wipe. I will do it myself."

"Uh..." Qi Din nodded and didn't say much.

"Then where are we going now?"

"Find water. Live."

"Oh."

In order to save energy, the conversation between the two of them was tacitly brief.

At any rate, Qi Zhong fell into a coma and rested for a while. At this moment, his mind was clearer. He looked around the vast sea of ​​sand, and suddenly felt strange. He thought that after falling into the abyss, he would surely die, but he didn't expect that under the abyss, there was a hole in the sky, such a boundless desert. There is no one inhabited.

It can be seen that everything from entering the ancient tomb to activating the mechanism was calculated by someone.Those who had anticipated the danger in the mountains but didn't want to drown would all be able to swim. Everyone escaped, but the two of them were the most cautious, and fell into an unknown danger instead.

Thinking of this, Qi Zhong suddenly raised his head, looking at Mu Yun's back in disbelief: I remember that this kid didn't fall into the abyss... Could it be that he...

"Uh, ahem..."

While running around, Mu Yundou felt the real breath in his body fluctuate, trapping his pulse for a moment, and suddenly stopped at the same place, under the venomous sunlight, and fatigue for too long, his hands and feet were weak for a while, and he was quite shaky.

Unable to be brave, he leaned back, but was stabilized by a thin shoulder, and then he was supported to calm his mind for a while, and his face improved.

When Qi Zhong saw this, he was very anxious: "You have already started to dehydrate. If you don't find a water source to replenish water in time, your life will be in danger."

Mu Yun nodded, his voice was much weaker than usual: "Don't worry about me, you, you go first."

"What? Throw you in the sand, wait for the wind to bury you, and I'll find water to drink by myself, do you think it's possible?"

Angry and speechless, Qi Zhong walked slowly along with him, the strength of his hands made it heavier, as if he would not let go of his hands.

"Otherwise, I don't know when I will find water. I'll cut some blood for you to drink first?"

Suddenly hearing such a terrifying proposal, Mu Yun panicked for a moment.Qi Zhong was even more anxious than him, with two fingers concentrated, ready to cut his wrists.

Seeing this, Mu Yun grabbed his hand and ordered: "Stop!"

"You!" Qi Zhong looked helplessly at his pale white hands, and continued to persuade, "It's okay. It's just a little blood, and it's not dead..."

"Stop it. I, I don't want to."

Mu Yun lowered his head and spoke in a sleepy tone.

Qi finally had nothing to do with him, so he had no choice but to follow his wishes. The two walked a little slower, but they still persisted.

Suddenly, a moist wind full of water vapor floated in the air, blowing on the face, very gentle.

Qi Zhong only cared about enjoying, but forgot to think.Mu Yun frowned lightly, tugged at his sleeves, and said in a low voice, "Wind, there is a fragrance of flowers in the wind..."

A word to wake up the dreamer.Qi Zhong was suddenly excited. There was a fragrance of flowers in the wind, which meant that there were flowers and trees nearby, and where there were green plants, there would be water.

They were saved.

Concentrating on it for a while, Qi Zhong carefully followed the traces of the fragrance of flowers and searched along the way, and he came across a wide oasis.

In the setting sun and dusk, there is a pool of glow.

Picking up a handful of clear springs to wash his face, Qi Zhong suddenly felt a burst of coolness, lying on his back by the river, he squinted his eyes comfortably, relaxing comfortably.

Tilting his head, he looked at Mu Yun, who was adjusting his breath by the side of the stone, leaning there obediently, his eyes downcast in thought.

Qi Zhong got up and went over to block the sunset in front of him, and handed him a moist brocade handkerchief: "Hey, use this to wipe it off, you are afraid of the heat, this one is cooler."

Mu Yun hesitated for a moment, took the hand, and was about to thank: "Thank you..."

"If you dare to say one more word of thanks, I will seal your mouth."

"Uh." Mu Yun pursed his lips subconsciously.

Qi Zhong laughed loudly: "I'm kidding you, drink water. I won't bother you anymore."

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on Mu Yun's body again as the man's back retreated, with a faint halo, like a sacrament of bathing.

Putting down the water, he thought that Qi Zhong was not considered an outsider, so he relaxed his mind, raised his hand to lightly take the jade crown on his head, and instantly let down his elegant long hair, which was swept by the evening breeze and hung down his shoulders.

……

The night far away in the desert cooled down quickly, the temperature difference between day and night made Qi Zhong sneezed unaccustomedly, holding hands, he finished his walk, and returned along the small river to the tung tree where the two drank water.

The sky was full of stars above his head, he looked up, and the feeling of homesickness rushed into his heart: I don't know if Master is okay now?My sister will be like me now, does Mochizuki miss me?

"You're back."

Before reaching the end, through several flowering trees, Qi Zhong saw the hazy figure of the man, and smiled lightly: "Yes."

"How is your injury? Is it better?"

"At that time, I was too impatient and unlucky, which led to the disorder of Yuan Qi, and now it has been temporarily suppressed."

"What is temporary? I tell you not to be brave!"

The two chatted through the flowers and trees, and Qi finally turned to the surface of the small river, splashing leisurely on the water.

Mu Yun avoided talking and changed the subject: "I just felt you wandering not far away, is there something on your mind?"

Hearing this, Qi Mo stopped the hand that threw the stone, blinked his eyes lonely, and replied: "Yes."

"You are."

With a shocking word, Mu Yun silently stopped asking, and the sense of powerlessness brought about by the fate and prophecy surged in his heart again.

Qi Zhong didn't know it, thought he was silently avoiding it, so he continued: "Did you hear what I said? You are my biggest concern right now."

"..."

There was another silence, and Qi Zhong was slightly annoyed: "Mu Yun! Can you tell me the reason? What did I do wrong that made you refuse to talk to me before?"

The blunt questioning was exchanged for a moment of silence again.

Qi Zhong was a little impatient, walked through the last few tung trees, and walked straight to Mu Yun's side. He was about to continue asking questions, but he choked back his words, and even slowed down his walking pace a lot.

Because he saw Mu Yun leaning on the white stone beside him with one hand, falling asleep.

No wonder it's so quiet.he said in his heart.

Approaching the man's side, Qi Zhong straightened the long hair that fell on his shoulders for him, glanced at the gift crown he placed beside him, couldn't help but weighed it, and sighed for a moment: "You are too tired."

"have a good rest."

He added another sentence, patiently brushing the hair on the forehead of the man, smoothing it to the back of the ear, revealing a cold and lustful jade face, the moonlight quietly sprinkled the light, and the man's fair complexion It looks more and more glamorous.

It was rare to see him relax so unpreparedly. From Qi Zhongping's point of view, Mu Yun's eyes-closed demeanor resembled a sleeping Jade Bodhisattva.

Unable to resist picking a wild flower, Qi Zhong held back his smile gently, and gently put the flower on his hair. A person who sleeps lightly, instantly becomes quiet and beautiful.

"Brother Yun, what a dream."

After appreciating his "work" with satisfaction, Qi Zhong was about to sleep next to him, when suddenly, another strange memory flashed in his mind.

"...Brother, look at what I have in my hand."

"Huh? Nothing."

"Hee hee. It's because I put flowers on my brother's head."

"Hey, Xiaoyue, you are so naughty..."

……

The vague and unfamiliar memories, like calcium carbide sparks, shine for a moment and disappear again.

Qi Zhong shook his head, regained consciousness, and said in a low voice, "Who is Xiaoyue?"

As soon as the words fell, the ancient sword behind him suddenly moved. Before Qi Zhong could react, the Yingluo sword came out of its sheath by itself.Spinning into the sky, the dust flew away.

Qi Zhong was shocked and growled, "My sword!"

He glanced at Mu Yun beside him, and after walking far away with his hands and feet tied up, he began to let go of his hands and feet, hurriedly chased him, and hurried through another tung flower forest.
